Just like that, No.2 got into the carriage. The man was a little embarrassed. There were a lot of books in the carriage, and there was not much space left, so he felt a bit restrained after sitting down.

"Benefactor, what should I call you?" There was silence in the car, and the man couldn't help but asked.

No.2 waved his hand and said briskly: "My name is No.2, you can call me number two." The benefactor screamed and made him a little flustered, but it's just a matter of little effort, and he really can't be a benefactor.

And this time the man directly solved the problem of his residence, it was too late for him to be grateful.

Wait, it seems like he didn't even know the man's name, so he just followed him, is it really good?

"Since I told you my first and last name, should you also introduce yourself?" He raised his brows and raised his chin, and asked in a raised voice.

The man immediately introduced himself: "My servant, Li Xiuyan, lives in Liyuan, Shanxi."

After chewing on the name repeatedly, No.2 said three good words again and again: "It's such a good name, to practice words... Words are a sharp weapon in the world, they can save or hurt people, so it is very important to cultivate one's words."

Li Xiuyan found it very interesting for No.2 to explain his name in this way. His name actually comes from "practice, practice and morality, and the quality of propriety", and his father took it himself.

But if you think about it carefully, there are also commonalities.

Half an hour later, the carriage arrived at Li Xiuyan's mansion. Hearing the coachman let out a long sigh, the carriage stopped after a while, and Li Xiuyan asked No.2 to get off the carriage together.

After getting off the carriage, No.2 saw the hanging plaque with the words "Li Mansion" engraved on it. Li Xiuyan explained: "This is the residence where my father lived when he was an official in Beijing. Falling Ashes, Second Brother, don't be disgusted."

"I used to take the sky as the cover and the earth as the seat, how could I dislike it." There was a lot of emotion in his words, which made Li Xiuyan slightly stunned.

The little boy also took the things from the carriage and went over to ask where to put them. Li Xiuyan responded and ordered them to be arranged.His face was a little shy, and he felt that he had treated No.2 slowly, so he planned to make up for the mistake just now, and quickly invited No.2 into the house.

Li Xiuyan did treat No.2 as his VIP, but No.2 felt very uncomfortable.

So when Li Xiuyan said that he hadn't entertained well, No.2 laughed dumbfounded: "Xiuyan, don't be nervous, I can do whatever I want."

He is really a gentle and serious man, he likes him but feels helpless in his heart.

As the host, Li Xiuyan was still serious, and arranged for him the most comfortable room with all the four treasures of the study, and asked his servants to help him move all the bookcases in.

After working for more than an hour, Li Xiuyan didn't bother. After leaving, he left a quiet environment for No.2, so that he could seriously review and prepare for the exam.

And the required items will be delivered here every time by the servant girl, so there is no need for No.2 to worry about it.

This is much more comfortable than living in an inn or a B&B, No.2 stretched her waist, exercised her muscles, smiled slightly, and said to herself: "It seems that I really met a noble person on the road, and it saved me a lot of worry. "

It is inevitable that I will be a little nervous before the big exam, and I always feel that I haven't finished reading all the books.But No.2 is different, he directly took his own kitchen knife to the courtyard to practice his knife skills, his knife skills are clean and quick, and his speed is unparalleled.

There is no stagnation in the slashing with one knife, and the connection between moves is smooth, like flowing clouds and flowing water.

After eating breakfast, Li Xiuyan came to the courtyard with a book and planned to read it. When he walked to the courtyard, he could hear the sound of paper being flipped through and the sound of sharp knives cutting through the void.

His gaze followed the sound involuntarily, and he was soon attracted by the one-stop saber technique.

Although he doesn't know martial arts, he can see the subtlety of this saber technique. After all, his brother's martial arts are very strong, especially the flying knife is superb.

Every time he sees his younger brother practicing hard, day in and day out all year round, he realizes that behind the martial arts are sweat and tears...

It's just that he is a little strange, why does No.2 use a kitchen knife?

There are many kinds of knives, many of which are beautiful and lethal.Unfortunately, the more he watched, the more he felt that No.2 and the kitchen knife had a strange sense of fit.

"Xiuyan, did I interrupt your reading?" No. 2 twisted his wrist, and the kitchen knife was retracted into the special scabbard. He stared at the book in Li Xiuyan's hand and said embarrassedly.

Li Xiuyan shook his head lightly: "How could it be? In fact, the momentary effort is nothing, as these books have been familiarized by heart a few years ago, and reading them now is nothing more than comfort."

Yes, what is the use of cramming for such a big exam?It's not all about ordinary kung fu.

The book in his hand was gently closed by his hand, and he chatted with No.2 about martial arts with great interest.

He has been weak since he was a child, but for the sake of his younger brother's happiness, he tried his best to study, and wanted to win the number one scholar that his father cared most about.As long as he can win the first prize, his younger brother will not have to suffer anymore and can do what he wants to do.

The position of No. [-] scholar is like a cage that binds them, preventing them from being at ease.He doesn't care, but his younger brother is a person who doesn't want to be bound and likes freedom.

A gloomy color crept up the brows quietly, No.2 caught it, and he comforted: "Don't be too persistent, too much persistence will hurt your body."

The scene of the encounter seemed to appear before his eyes again, and the chaotic internal energy almost killed Li Xiuyan.Speaking of this disease, one is a physical disease, and the other is a heart disease. The combination of the two is so serious.

"Thank you." A warm feeling surged into his heart, and the haze in his heart was blown away a lot.

In fact, his obsession is not that deep, his father is the one who is really obsessed, but it is a pity that his persuasion is useless.

I only hope that this time he will show his strength to win the No. [-] Scholar position and fulfill his father's lifelong wish. Only then will his obsession be dispelled.

No.2 patted Li Xiuyan on the shoulder lightly: "Don't think too much now, take a good rest and prepare for the exam, and don't let me steal your seat when the time comes."

"I don't know how many people want to get the position of champion, and I will not give up, so I will listen to you and rest well." Li Xiuyan knew his physical condition, and he had to rest well before he could cope with the three exams of three days each. nine days.

No.2 closed his eyes and shook his head: "No, no, no, my goal is the second place, just right, it's different from yours."

"Ugh?"

Doubt occupied Li Xiuyan's thoughts for a moment, and after a while, he thought that everyone pursued different things, which is also good.Ever since, he said from the bottom of his heart: "Okay, let's work hard together."

In the next few days, Li Xiuyan read books while taking care of his body, No. 2 also studied hard after meditating after martial arts training.

There is still one day before the big exam, No.2 plans to take a rest early after reading for a while, and take the exam with a full posture.

However, after reading for a while, he couldn't bear to read any words, so he closed the book, and thought of looking at Li Xiuyan.

Walking outside the door, he heard coughing in the room, he frowned and knocked on the door: "Xiuyan, can I go in?"

"Second." Shortly after Li Xiuyan responded, the door was opened.

He lightly covered most of his face with his sleeve, and couldn't help coughing a few more times, his cheeks were flushed from excessive coughing.

"The exam is going to be tomorrow. How can you do this?" No.2 said with great concern. He had a lot of conversations with Li Xiuyan in the past few days, and he was deeply impressed by Xiuyan's knowledge and cultivation. pity.

Li Xiuyan endured the desire to cough: "I accidentally caught a cold, it's fine."

A few days is enough to see a person's basic character clearly, this Li Xiuyan is a gentle and aggressive person.

He directly pushed Li Xiuyan back to the room, poured a cup of hot water and said, "I'll come as soon as I go, just wait a moment."

It was still early, and the doors of the shops on the street were all open. The next day, I went to the pharmacy to buy some honey and ginger, and then I came back with fresh air.

After entering the house, he directly found Xiaotong and led him to the kitchen. Xiaotong helped him light the fire. He picked up the kitchen knife on the vegetable table and cut the ginger into thin slices, then shredded and minced it.

Xiaotong didn't even blink his eyes, this knife skill is really amazing.

After boiling the honey and ginger water, he tasted it himself and served it to Li Xiuyan.After entering the house, he put down the bowl of juice, Li Xiuyan was in a daze, even if his nose was insensitive, he could still smell the strong smell of ginger, mixed with the sweet smell of honey.

No.2 felt that if Li Xiuyan was his younger brother or elder brother, he would have poured it directly, how simple and rude.

"Thank you." Li Xiuyan picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp. The taste of ginger is a bit harsh, but the taste is very good.

He held the bowl tightly and lowered his eyes slightly curiously: "Did you cook it yourself?"

"Well, you rest, I will watch you today, after all, we agreed that you will be the No.

Li Xiuyan felt quite uneasy in his heart. He originally wanted to provide No.2 with a good environment review, but instead caused No.2 trouble.

Between friends, we should try our best to help each other. This sentence is what No.2 said in the chat a few days ago.There are many people in the world who can talk but can't do it, but he, a friend who has just met not long ago, will do what he says.

For some reason, his eyelids became heavier and he fell asleep peacefully not long after.
