"Forget it! I don't want to think about it anymore. Since I come here, I will rest assured. At least the life in front of me is much better than in the earth's world, and I also have the most common ability of time travelers to 'not forget'. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?!"

After Xie Ying came to her senses, the sky was already red. She couldn't help but smile and shook her head, muttering to herself. With the rules of this world, she won the Jinshi, looked forward to the top scorer, advanced to the Grand Secretary, and finally entered the court and was in power. It would be only a matter of time before she could win the world.

As she walked down the mountain, Xie Ying kept YYing in her mind, hoping that the test would start immediately...

"Shadow Reading is back?"

"Yes! Aunt Lan!"

"shadow!"

"Hello Uncle Six!"

"shadow!"

"Grandpa Three!"

...

After going down the mountain, Xie Ying almost stopped his hand whenever he met someone, no matter men, women, young and old, and greeted Xie Ying with a respectful look, without exception. When Xie Ying responded, they were all quite pleased and happy, as if even the day's fatigue had disappeared.

Shadow, the two words, must be understood separately. In this world, "Zi" is a kind of respect for people. Only those who are moral, knowledgeable, have status and are respected can add the word "Zi" after their names.

Xie Ying is a Juren, which is enough for everyone in the village to be respected. Because in addition to the village chief, Huai Lao, who has also served as a private school teacher in the village for more than 40 years, is a Juren. Xie Ying is the only Juren in the village and has a great hope of getting a Jinshi. He is a person who has entered the aristocratic class with one foot. Xie Jia Village has not produced a Jinshi for hundreds of years, and the responsibility for glorifying his ancestors is on Xie Ying.

This village has no name, it is simply called "Xiejia Village". According to the ancient records of the village, the ancestors of the villagers of Xiejia Village can be traced back to the Xie State during the Xia and Shang dynasties (relatively weak, living in the Jiangshui River Basin, now in Shaanxi). Later, the country was destroyed. At the end of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Shen Bo was renamed Xie to strengthen the rule of the Western Zhou Dynasty over the south. After the Ren surname destroyed Xie State, some of the people stayed in the local area and most of them fled, but they took the country as their surname, namely the Xie family.

To put it simply, Xiejia Village is one of the legendary ancient tribes or desolate tribes who live in the Jinyuan Mountains.

However, there are competition in places where there are people, not to mention the Jinyuan Mountains, which were originally considered to be the harsh Jinyuan Mountains. The Xie tribe, which was originally a remnant of ancient tribes, encountered countless disasters. After it passed down for several generations, it became a few branches. The living standards and cultural level in the village were far inferior to those of the barbarians and unlucky people who lived here for generations. Perhaps because of this, Xiejia Village, which has the least strength within a radius of thousands of miles, can barely survive in the Jinyuan Mountains with a wide range of power. The poor and innocent Xiejia Village has no place worth exploiting or plundering.

...

"Brother Ying!"

Walking into the village, walking through the staggered rural dirt road, and coming to the open space in the middle of the village, Xie Yinggang looked at the dozens of children in the open space with a sweet and crisp sound.

Xie Ying looked in the sound and saw a girl with a icy skin and jade-carved body. She was about seven or eight years old. She was waving to Xie Ying with a baby face, but she was Xie Shulan, the daughter of her neighbor Xie San’s uncle’s family. Such a cute little girl is also a neighbor, and they are both only children. In my memory, the two have always been close to each other like brothers and sisters.

Xie Ying smiled slightly, and was about to respond to Xiao Shulan's shout...

However, everyone's movements in the open space suddenly stopped. They all looked at the cute elf Xie Shulan, and immediately made Aunt Xie San, who was chatting with the women and children in the village, blushed and at a loss.

"Bang..."

"I have said it many times. Now Shadow is a Juren. After a few days of examination, I will become a Jinshi. The future master will be a great master who will glorify the ancestors of our Xiejia Village. Do you want to ask the gentleman to know? I can't teach you no matter how much I teach you. It's really angering."

A crisp and slap that echoed through the open space came out, and Aunt Xie San shouted in a panic.

Xie Ying paused and her heart twitched...

"gentlemen!"

Xiao Shulan, who was originally innocent and joyful, smiled with a huge red slap on Ruyu's face. The clear elf's eyes were misty and chewed, and finally retreated in the eyes of everyone. She couldn't help but leaned against her mother's body, calling her timidly.

"Don't blame the shadow! Shulan is still young, this wild child is so idle that he can't teach him no matter how much he teaches him! Alas..."

Aunt Xie San bowed to Xie Ying with a serious trepidation, explained repeatedly uneasyly, and finally sighed heavily, even her eyes turned red, and she obviously felt quite distressed.

"Whatever Aunt San said, I like to hear Xiao Shulan call me brother, and I'm the older brother!"

Xie Ying sighed inwardly, quickly stepped forward and said intimately.

"The courtesy cannot be abolished! The courtesy cannot be abolished!" Aunt Xie San was flattered and said in a panic. She was already tender and didn't know what to do, but her thoughts from childhood to adulthood made her unable to turn around, and she dared not overestimate the slightest.

"Does Xiao Shulan still hurt? Why did Aunt San beat so hard? Xiao Shulan is still a child!"

Xie Ying no longer talked to Aunt San anymore, but rubbed Xie Shulan's small head with guilt and asked softly.

"Haha..." Aunt Xie San looked at Xie Shulan with a lot of pain and laughed dryly, but didn't know how to answer. Just such a daughter, she must have a mentality, but so many people watched, Aunt Xie San had to do this, otherwise she would criticize her if she couldn't give birth to a son. In addition, she was not a good teacher, so how would she live in Xiejia Village in the future?

If the son does not teach, the father’s fault!

"Does Shulan want to read a book? This book is for you to get a good reputation in the future!"

At this time, Xie Shulan seemed to have not yet escaped the previous shadow, and did not respond to Xie Ying's question. She still grabbed her mother's clothes and looked at Xie Ying timidly, not understanding. When she heard what Xie Ying said, her eyes lit up, and she was obviously very yearning, but she bit her lips tightly and shook her head gently.

"It cannot be used! It cannot be used! It must not be used! This is a book of shadow, so how can I hand it over to Shulan a wild child? If Shadow's future is delayed, Shulan will become the eternal sinner of Xiejia Village!" Aunt Xie San was shocked, and even ignored etiquette, and quickly pushed away the arm that Xie Ying handed over, and said in a while.

Xiejia Village is remote and poor, and extremely backward. Even the price of ordinary books is not high, but for Xiejia Village, which has basically no income, it is only a hundred books, which is comparable to the treasure of the tribe.

"What? Is my words useless? It's okay, I have memorized this book and integrated it. Lao Huai Ruo has his own words, I will take it with all my strength!" Xie Ying's face darkened, and she looked at Aunt Xie San and said unhappily.

"Ah..." Everyone around was shocked.

"This...this..." Aunt Xie San was even more frightened. Xie Ying's second half sentence was nothing, but the first half sentence made Aunt Xie San dare not answer. Because if Xie Ying passed the Jinshi, there was no need to say that she was glorious and glorious for the ancestors of Xiejia Village. If she failed to pass the exam, then the next village chief must be Xie Ying. In the eyes of the villagers, the village chief has the highest status, and no one dared to refute what she said.

"Stop this, just settle it!" Xie Ying waved his hand impatiently and said directly.

After saying that, regardless of Aunt Xie San's reaction, he directly pulled Xie Shulan's little hand and stuffed the "Su Shu" into her hand and said:

"Brother Ying gave it to you, you can just accept it! If someone makes things difficult for Xiao Shulan, ask him to come and find Brother Ying!"

Now Xie Ying is the treasure of Xiejia Village. The hope of Xiejia Village is that even the village chief is extremely doting on Xie Ying, so no one is asking Xie Ying to argue.

Xie Shulan looked at her mother timidly, but Aunt Xie San turned to look at others, not daring to react or speak out...

"Yeah!" Xie Shulan took a deep breath, her lips tightened, her sides bulged, and her face was red and nodded with all her strength. She was extremely cute. Her little hand holding the book was so tight that it turned white...

"shadow!"

Seeing Xiao Shulan put away the books, Xie Ying nodded at Xiao Shulan with a smile and encouragement, and looked around casually. Everyone around them called respectfully, but they were sincere respect and comfort.

"Um?"

In the open space, a young man who led the whole village to practice martial arts about ten years old was unhappy and turned around and glared at the dozens of children behind him, and snorted coldly.

"gentlemen!"

With Xie Shulan's example, no one dared to make trouble for dozens of children, all of them bowed respectfully and said with stars dancing around their eyes.

"Everyone, you are welcome! You should do what you should do. If I don't exist, I will take a look!"

Xie Ying smiled and nodded to everyone around him, as a gift, and said repeatedly.

"Haha..." Everyone smiled kindly, and then resumed their previous behavior. It was just a necessary etiquette, but in the end they were still in the same village and were as close as their family.

“Geeh…”

Another gathering of flowers covered her mouth and chuckled, whispering to each other, as if flowers were competing for beauty.

One of the women who was as dazzling as a crane, whose beautiful face and clear and bright eyes made Xie Ying's heart throbbing. He couldn't help but look sideways. He quickly took a deep breath to divert his gaze and looked at the young man in the martial arts world.

"I remember it! What I taught today is that Brother Nai Lie learned the 'Demon Tiger Body Tempering Art' created by the army after martial arts."

"Practicing martial arts means practicing flesh, bones, skin, tendons, and qi, until the five internal organs and six households. This body-tempering technique trains the body, and makes our body look like a demon tiger."

"There are six styles in total, namely the Demon Tiger's tail swing, the Demon Tiger's snatching the rabbit, the Tiger's roaring in the mountains, the Demon Tiger's cracking stone, the Demon Tiger's rushing into the clouds, and the Demon Tiger's cracking sky. Each style contains nine changes, sixty-nine and fifty-four, complex and changeable. As long as you master the method and practice it to great success, you will have the power of a tiger and wolf, and the body of a demon tiger!"

The young man who taught martial arts did not say much, turned around and shouted loudly to the children, and said in detail, he made his own creation "Demon Tiger Body Tempering Technique". In addition, he demonstrated it in person and explained in detail each move.

In fact, what the young man in front of me said a few days ago, and these children have heard and seen them. The reason why they retell them is more detailed and serious than before is mainly because of Xie Ying, who is making excuses to learn secretly.

...

The sunset is setting, the stars are hazy!

When Xie Ying realized from the young people's teachings, all the adults around had disappeared, and even Xiao Shulan had returned, but only the young people and a group of children were still there.

"Okay! That's all for this today. Let's go back and think carefully and inspect tomorrow!"

Seeing that it was getting late and what he should have said had been finished, the young man looked coldly at the dozens of children in front of him and shouted.

"Yes!" Everyone answered.

"Okay! It's time to disband!" said the young man waved his hand and said.

"Sir, I am happy! Master, I am happy!" The children all bowed and said unanimously, then danced and dispersed...

"Brother Lie! I don't understand that 'Demon Tiger Flying Cloud' move, how can I get into the air with the power of the wind and cloud?"

As the child dispersed, Xie Ying, who was immersed in the martial arts before, woke up and looked at the remaining young man and immediately stepped forward and asked for advice.

The young man in front of him, who is the son of Xie Ying, Xie Lie, the village chief Huai Lao. He joined the army when he was young and returned to Xiejia Village after retirement. He was responsible for teaching the people of Xiejia Village how to strengthen their bodies. He is a relatively knowledgeable person in the village and is respected by the whole village. Because of Xie Lie's appearance, the living standards of Xiejia Village have improved a lot. At least Xiejia Village, which is backing mountains and rivers, does not need to struggle on the line of food and clothing. Occasionally, there is still some surplus and goes to the market to exchange for some small money. However, Xie Lie is not a member of Confucianism and Taoism and does not study much, and he will not be able to get on the table. With Xie Lie one hand, he can settle more than a dozen Xie Ying's strength, but he is still not qualified to inherit his father's status and serve as the village chief.

"Shh..."

Hearing Xie Ying's inquiry, Xie Lie shrewd like a thief, looked up, paused and said in a low voice, "Let's go, don't talk here!" After the words, he walked towards a corner...

Xie Ying was speechless and could only keep up. After traveling through time, when she saw Xie Lie smashing a tonnage rock with a punch, Xie Ying, who was weak, was like seeing a god. She pestered Xie Lie to learn, but she scared Xie Lie to death and did not dare to teach Xie Ying any martial arts. If it weren't for the memory, Xie Lie grew up with Xie Ying and had always taken good care of the people in Xie Family Village, and she had a big brother style. Xie Ying thought that Xie Lie had treasured himself or something he hated.

"I really don't understand that strengthening the body is a good thing! Why can everyone learn, but I can't learn it!" When following Xie Lie to the hidden corner, Xie Ying muttered in confusion again. This is not the first time Xie Ying has complained. She has asked several times before, but Xie Lie avoided answering.

This time, Xie Lie was still silent and did not answer...

"Isn't it? This exam is a long way to go. Learn some martial arts and at least you can protect yourself!" Who from the earth world doesn't yearn for martial arts that can punch and slash a few feet away? Xie Ying is no exception. Seeing Xie Lie silent, Xie Ying muttered again.

"Shadow!" Xie Lie suddenly stopped and turned around, looking at Xie Ying seriously and said.

"Hmm?" Xie Ying was stunned for a moment and looked at Xie Lie who was so serious.

"I can understand the original intention of my father not letting me teach you martial arts! After all, this is just a poor method of strengthening one's body, but a path that the hopeless holy path has to go. You are the person with the highest talent in Confucianism in our village for thousands of years. You were the juren in our teens. I don't want to be restrained by martial arts for your future path!" He stared at Xie Ying tightly, and said seriously for the first time.

Xie Ying's mouth squirmed for a few minutes, and didn't know how to respond for a while, and finally three words were highlighted... "I don't understand!"
To be continued...
