Looking from the Hongye Pavilion, the streams at the foot of the mountain are surrounded by streams and finally flowing eastward.

Next to the Red Leaf Pavilion is a maple tree that has grown for countless years. It is majestic and magnificent.

People in the past thought that this tree had spirit and the simple villagers worshipped, and they had some experience and spread it and became famous all over the world.

Therefore, this Red Leaf Pavilion is not only not lonely, but is usually very lively on the hillside.

Ding Chenghe is a person who enjoys the people, so naturally he has no way to clear the scene. It’s just that there is no white Ding in the Red Leaf Pavilion now. How dare ordinary people go? It’s just that the tea stalls and mountain temples are lively in the tea stalls not far away.

Li Zhichang accompanied Sima Hongye and took Wang Shengshi in. At this time, Ding Chenghe was surrounded by the middle. Many scholars were not in a hurry to watch him appreciate poetry and prose.

Only one of the middle-aged scholars had a little depressed expression and stood alone outside the crowd.

The black sheathed sword on Hongye's back sobbed and whimpered. Hongye's expression changed and he looked at the scholar. He looked at the clerk with a clear eyes and a little cold light was thrown out. He reached out and pulled out the sword behind him. At this time, Li Zhichang's hand gently pressed her hand holding the hilt of the sword and shook his head at her.

She whispered: "Brother Li can't see that he is not a human being."

She has seen the ghost who appeared in the daytime, but like the other party, she looks like she doesn't see the difference from ordinary people, and she doesn't have any discomfort. This is the first time she has met her.

This middle-aged scholar is obviously not a human, but is just a state of soul, but he can condense into shape, just like before his death. He is in the ghost realm. He has profound cultivation and is really terrible.

If it weren't for the Black Water Sword's own spirituality, even she would have almost missed it.

In this way, it naturally shows the extraordinaryness of this middle-aged scholar. If you let such a monster stay in the world for time, if you do harm to the world, it will definitely be very shallow.

Li Zhichang is definitely a person in the right way. Even if he doesn't like to subdue demons, he shouldn't stop her.

Li Zhichang sighed softly, "This person is not an ordinary ghost." He said, "So that's it, no wonder the City God said so."

After ordinary people have not practiced, after death, the soul in their bodies will naturally disperse without being bound, and are pulled into the cycle of reincarnation of heaven and earth. If they are unwilling to be reincarnated as reincarnation or are not led by the god of the Yin, it will gradually dissipate. Perhaps those with the opportunity can continuously condense the Yin energy between heaven and earth, cultivate into the ghost realm, and practice into the Yin spirit, and can also fly to the sky and escape, come and go like lightning, and reach the depths. They can recall their previous lives, but they are less flexible than the Yuanshen. However, they have other wonderful uses, and are also considered an alternative immortality.

To put it bluntly, there are very few levels of practice. In a word, it is the process of gathering energy. Finally, when you reach the depths, you can call it a ghost immortal. Compared with the golden elixir of Taoist practitioners, it seems to be different.

Once the energy accumulates to a critical point, it will attract thunder tribulation. If it can be overcome, the Yin slag will be gone and the pure Yang Yuanshen will be refined, which is no different from Taoist masters.

It’s just that few ghost monks can survive the thunder tribulation because they are either removed before they pass the tribulation, or they are killed during the tribulation.

If it weren't for that powerful ghost immortal, if he wanted to travel in the sun, it would be almost a delusion to ordinary people.

There are always exceptions, such as this scholar, who is definitely not a powerful ghost immortal.

Li Zhichang came to the scholar effortlessly among the crowded scholars and asked softly: "Don't you know what to call this friend?"

The scholar saw that Li Zhichang was extremely arrogant and was completely different from the scholars surrounding Ding Chenghe. He felt a little fond of him and said, "In the Huaiyang, Ye Guangyuan, whose courtesy name is Liangchen, I don't know who is the wise brother, I hope you can give me advice."

Li Zhichang laughed and said, "I am from Huaxi Village, this county. Li Wangsheng, whose courtesy name is Zhichang."

When Ye Liangchen heard that the person in front of him was Li Wangsheng, he carefully said, "I said to Yan Yuan, if you use it, you will do it; if you give it up, you will hide it. Only I and you have this husband!"

Li Zhichang Yiqiu said, "Brother Liangchen has also read articles on our county examination."

Ye Liangchen was not so bitter, his face relaxed a lot, and he said quietly: "The ancients said, 'There must be wise people in the ten-household towns'. It's true that I am the one who has solved the title, 'Only I will destroy the secrets of my actions, and only I will be the one who is with you', which is quite ancient. Even my brother cannot take the lead in the case, nor can he be promoted. There are so many counties left by the court and the country."

After saying that, he felt himself unconscious and burst into tears.

But the tears fell on the ground and disappeared invisibly, turning into a mass of soul energy and returning to his body. He did not notice this himself, but Li Zhichang noticed it.

Li Zhichang secretly praised him.

At this time, after Ding Chenghe commented on everyone's poems, he walked towards Ye Guangyuan and Li Zhichang."

He couldn't help but be curious. He had always known that Ye Guangyuan was a human being. Although he was not arrogant, he could not talk to ordinary people. Looking at his appearance and Li Zhichang, it was strange that he fell into the same situation at first sight.

Ye Guangyuan was the best in his writings and poems, and he was quite famous in Huaiyang, but he did not have the luck of scientific examinations and failed the provincial examinations many times.

He always cherished his talents and knew that his family was not rich, so he recruited him as a guest minister and treated him very well. The true teacher of his son Ding Chenghe was Ye Guangyuan. Under Ye Guangyuan's teaching at that time, Ding Zaichang was able to write a paper in just one year. In the second year of the provincial examination, Ye Guangyuan even beat the exam questions at that time, allowing Ding Zaichang to win the second place in the provincial examination.

Since then, Ding Zaichang has won the Huiyuan exam after Ye Guangyuan's tutoring for him. It is because Ding Zaichang's talent is limited and he has no excellence in the palace examination, so the dignified member has no chance of being with Yijia.

Even so, becoming the first to be a second-class student and entering the Hanlin Academy is considered to be a glorious family.

All of this is inseparable from Ye Guangyuan's help, and Ding Chenghe attaches great importance to him.

It’s just that a disciple who has been teaching for several years can pass the imperial examination, but his mentor cannot even win a juren. Ye Liangchen is depressed.

Ding Chenghe climbed the mountain on the Double Ninth Festival, and he was not without the intention of bringing Ye Guangyuan to relieve his mind.

At the same time, he also planned to let Ye Guangyuan go to the capital next year and instruct Ding Zaichang to find a way out and send him to the Imperial College, which is also a way out.

Ye Guangyuan was also sad and angry. He became a scholar at the age of twelve and was praised by the local prodigy. In many years since then, his studies of literature have increased day by day, but he has never passed the imperial examination again. He is still a scholar at the age of thirty, and his heart is not something that outsiders can express.

However, after meeting Li Zhichang, his depression in his heart was indeed a little relieved. In his opinion, Li Zhichang could not learn less than him, and his writing was even more experienced and could not pass the imperial examination. It can be seen that he was destined to be destined at all.

After all, he followed Ding Chenghe to Qingshui County and read the articles from previous county examinations. Li Zhichang's articles are naturally particularly conspicuous among the people. If he had not been a person of equally profound knowledge, he would never have appreciated the wonders of it.

It can be said that every word is a pearl, but it does not lose the truth of heaven and earth.

The examiner cannot appreciate it because his knowledge is too poor and he cannot understand the profound truths. (To be continued)
