Age of Heroes, ten consecutive guarantees

When Bai Yu opened his eyes, he felt his lips were a little dry and cracked.

When he sat up, the water glass was already handed to him.

She met a pair of beautiful, rippling eyes.

After taking a sip of water, Bai Yu asked, "What time is it now?"

"It's already the afternoon of the second day." Su Ruoli raised the pillow and lifted the quilt: "How do you feel now?"

Bai Yu was about to speak with a smile.

"to be honest."

"To be honest, it's not very good." Bai Yu looked inside: "The damage to the soul is not serious. The crack has not expanded further at present, and it is still faintly repairing itself. It may take about three months to fully recover."

"Three months..."

"It takes three months to fully recover, but it doesn't actually take that long." Bai Yu smiled: "Don't forget, I can also make elixirs. Although there are few elixirs for repairing the soul, there are still several types, and repairing The ancient recipe is not difficult for me at all.”

...As long as you are willing to spend money.

Su Ruoli's locked brows relaxed slightly, but his expression was still very serious: "I am an innate heroic spirit, so I can see that your soul is indeed not broken, let alone the soul, otherwise I would take you now Go home and recuperate, no matter what you say, you won’t listen... Do you still plan to continue taking the imperial examination?"

"Of course." Bai Yu nodded firmly.

Su Ruoli asked: "Are you so anxious?"

"There are three reasons... first, I need to win the imperial examination in order to enter the Beiming family openly; second, I need the title of Jiao Yang, which is related to a bet between me and Long Jianquan; third, again It’s time to leave for Rome in more than two months, and the next time I come back will be at least a year and a half later.”

Bai Yu tapped the water glass with his fingers: "This opportunity is only once, once in a lifetime, don't miss it."

"I don't want to hear this." Su Ruoli lowered her eyes: "These words you said sound like they are all for others, but why don't you think about yourself?"

"I'm not that reckless." Bai Yu reached out and touched his childhood sweetheart's cheek: "This situation is an accident, but it's also a blessing in disguise."

"Ordinary people would be unable to move when they encounter such a heavy blow, but for me, it is an opportunity to stand without breaking."

Su Ruoli gently held his right hand and asked in a low voice: "Who did you meet in the dragon vein world?"

Bai Yu hesitated.

"can not say?"

"I'm afraid you won't believe me."

Miss Su held her delicate chin with one hand, stretched out a hand and pressed it between his eyebrows: "As long as you say it, I am willing to believe it, even if it is a lie, because I am the number one in the world." Good girl, no matter what time, I will respond to your expectations."

At this moment, Bai Yu really wanted to hug her.

And Su Ruoli also felt the throbbing, and immediately took the initiative to come up and give him a hug, as if they were connected and connected.

This hug is not warm, but gentle and lingering=, like the peach blossoms falling into the spring water in March.

It was as if the fatigue and scars on the soul had been soothed.

"Hiss..." He suddenly felt a pain in his ears.

He was actually bitten by Su Ruoli.

"Bite me for what?"

"There's a smell." Su Ruoli picked up the water cup and rinsed his mouth: "Did you touch something dirty?"

"……No."

"You just hesitated for 0.5 seconds, right?" Su Ruoli came up to him, pressed him on the bed, exposed his little tiger teeth, and said fiercely: "Tell me the whole story of your injury truthfully, and then recite it silently in your heart. A hundred times, just say 'My childhood sweetheart is the best in the world' and 'I will always like Su Ruoli'!"

…

Thousand-year-old family.

The millennium is an extremely important year.

For a thousand years, Daxia was still a feudal dynasty. At that time, cavalry swept across the world. At that time, gods and ghosts roamed the mountains and rivers. At that time, ordinary people dug in the soil for food. At that time, there were also romantic swordsmen wielding swords. Crossing the river...

Therefore, a family that can be passed down for thousands of years must have its own uniqueness.

There must be something outstanding and worthy of learning, including careful and prudent choices in every decision, stable inheritance of family business from generation to generation, ability to grasp the basic production relations and keep pace with the times, and so on.

However, no matter how much a family innovates itself, it is still a family, and the characteristic of a family is that family law is greater than national law.

This is like a pack of wolves. The alpha wolf decides the direction of development, and the pack needs to lower its head and follow.

Every hunt in the wilderness has the goal of keeping the wolves alive, without focusing too much on any one wolf.

Therefore, everyone in the family is a sacrificial member, and they are all part of the family. The family will protect its own people, but it will also restrain its own people. In the end, the rules set by the predecessors will become a constraint for future generations. Without the shackles, the young people have become a conservative clan force and have firmly grasped the power at the top.

However, the old conservatives cannot stay in power for long because times are changing.

The system of extraordinary people is getting better and better day by day, but even if the old conservatives have accumulated a lot, they will eventually lose to the young people.

No one is young forever, but there are always young people.

Young people are naturally subversive of order and rules. They naturally stand on the opposite side of conservatives and are the vanguard against tradition.

But the top management of the aristocratic family needs these passionate young people to act as the face of the aristocratic family and win more face and dignity... This is very contradictory in the first place.

Therefore, all the children of the thousand-year-old family with outstanding strength, without exception, have an ambivalent attitude towards the family that has given them the grace to raise them.

On the one hand, he is unwilling to be used as a tool and ordered around. On the other hand, he is deeply bound by the family early because of his stance.

Bei Mingque grew up in such a contradiction.

Ever since he could remember, he had been taught that family interests were paramount, and was told to obey the rules set by his ancestors and the decisions of the clan leader...

A hundred or two hundred years ago, this system might have been useful, but unfortunately, the existence of compulsory education in Daxia during this era has already swept the stubborn feudal system into the garbage heap of history.

So at the age of fifteen, Bei Mingque had already seen through the true face of the heads and elders of the Bei Ming family. They were all a group of blood-sucking worms. They had neither the ability nor the courage to fight for anything, so they could only use the power of the younger generation to fight for anything. Feeding on vitality and blood, he stayed in a high place and ate a vegetarian diet, thinking that the younger generation of tribesmen would fight for him.

This has been true for generations.

But it is not easy to escape from the control of these people.

If Beimingque wants to break the tradition, he will definitely need supreme force, which is to be canonized.

Where he stood in the corridor, the sun was just right, but the place looked very gloomy.

A maid saluted from behind: "Young Master, you can come in."

...Young Master, what era are these titles from?

Bei Mingque nodded and crossed the threshold, which was only a dozen centimeters high.

Such a small height threshold has hindered him countless times and sealed the people inside the door in the small courtyard for ten years.

Stepping into the courtyard, you can see that there are many bonsais, many plants, and many small animals in the yard. The air is moist and the temperature is suitable.

There is a hanging basket hanging under a tree. A woman in plain clothes is sitting under the patio, reading a book. A big orange cat is lying on her knees, yawning lazily.

This woman is very beautiful. She is no longer an ordinary girl, let alone in her twenties, but is completely mature.

It can also be seen from her figure that she is already married and has a child, but even so, her unique beauty is not diminished at all.

Sensational at first sight, graceful at closer inspection, extraordinary at a distance, exquisite at close range.

When she was young, she was also a graceful beauty who was famous in the capital and Penglai.

After hearing the footsteps, the woman raised her face, and the big orange on her knees jumped down and turned into an emoticon. She took a handful of the cat's generous belly and said, "Is Yuzhang here?"

"Auntie." Beimingque saluted.

"have you eaten?"

"have eaten."

"I haven't eaten yet. This kid is also hungry." The woman rubbed Daju's head.

"It's time to lose weight." Bei Mingque glanced at the orange cat: "It's already a ball of fat."

Daju raised his head disdainfully and pulled at the hem of the woman's skirt to beg for cat food.

"Okay, okay, I'll feed you later..." She showed a helpless and loving look.

Bei Mingque looked at the woman pouring out cat food to feed the orange cat, thinking that she didn't know that the cat's fatness would shorten its lifespan, but she just couldn't stand its coquettishness. After raising it for so many years, she might have already Treat it like a child.

"What brought you here today?" The graceful woman who had been trapped in Beiming's house for ten years poured a cup of sencha: "You have the temperament to go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing."

Bei Mingque took the tea but did not drink it. He said calmly: "Tomorrow is the palace examination."

"Calculating the time, it's indeed almost time." Bei Mingyao rubbed the orange cat's head and replied absently: "You also have to participate in this palace examination, so work hard."

"Bai Yu will also participate in this palace examination."

"……What?"

Bei Mingyao subconsciously exerted force, and there was a tuft of hair in his fingers.

The orange cat meowed, broke away and jumped down, licking its own fur distressedly.

"If he can win the top spot in the second division, the Beiming family will let him in."

"Is this what the Presbyterian Council means?" Bei Mingyao said in a low voice: "I have stayed here long enough, isn't it enough?"

"Perhaps, they want more." Bei Mingque said: "Only children recognize right and wrong. They only look at benefits. They have waited too long."

Bei Mingyao's eyes were filled with sadness, and he never spoke a word.

"That's all I have to say." Bei Mingque stood up.

Until he left, Beiming Yao did not catch up with him, nor did he ask any questions.

She sat quietly, the greenhouse turning into a cold storage.

Bei Mingque returned to the Villa where he lived and saw Ren Nanbei.

He was minding his own business eating skewers and asked, "It's freezing cold. Is there a saint living in your inner courtyard?"

"She is not a saint." Bei Mingque shook his head: "She is just a mother who misses her child and is going crazy."

"It turns out she is..."

"She's my aunt." Bei Mingque sat on the stone bench: "What brings you here?"

"Please eat skewers."

"Let's get down to business."

"There is not very good news." Ren Nanbei said: "I heard that Bai Yu's soul has been injured, and the degree is not low."

"oh."

"Is your reaction too bland?"

"So what if he is injured? Even if he can't walk, he will crawl into the palace examination venue even if he crawls. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he cannot retreat."

Bei Mingque asked himself, if it were his soul that was torn apart, would he retreat without a fight?

"He will come, so I won't have the slightest sympathy or reservation for him."

"Are you so hard-hearted? Save some face for your aunt."

"My respect for him is to go all out." Bei Mingque said calmly: "If he doesn't fight, he can still live a peaceful and happy life; if I don't fight, who will leave a way for me to survive?"

"Your Beiming family's cultivation of gu is really extreme." Ren Nanbei lamented: "Only those who are canonized before the age of twenty-seven can survive. Women can avoid their own destiny of destruction by giving birth and passing on the power of their blood to their offspring. , it’s a pity that you are a man, anyone can lose, but not you.”
