After crossing the low mountain, there is a river that passes along the rocks. After walking through the river, it is Gushan County of the Tang Dynasty. After walking with peace of mind for more than a month, Ye Qi came to the outskirts of Chang'an City.

Chang'an City is very big, with more than ten miles away from the city gate outside the suburbs. From a distance, the city is still irrelevant. The walls are as dark as ink, and the city gate is tall, like a prehistoric beast with a huge mouth.

A year ago, Ye Qi had also seen Chang'an City here, but he didn't expect that just one year later, he came here again. If it weren't for a coincidence that something happened outside the sight, it would have happened a long time later when he came to Chang'an by himself.

There are two forks on the official road with rammed loess in the suburbs, leading directly to the city like a giant beast, and a mountain leading to the southern suburbs.

After taking a few more glances at the city, Ye Qi walked towards the road leading to the mountains. There was a college at the foot of the mountains, the only academy in the world.

The road leading to the academy is full of low hills. At this time, it is the spring in Chang'an. The green grass and flowers on the hills are green and beautiful, and the faint fragrance of flowers is spread on the roadside. With the cool breeze brought from the mountain, it is really a bit enjoyable to walk here.

After walking a few steps, you can see the gatehouse of the academy. The grass and flowers on the hill are replaced by the apricot flowers, like the light red makeup on a woman's cheeks, with redness in white, and the wind blows by, and the petals fall to the ground like rain, dyeing the path under the tree into redness in white.

An old woman was holding a broom and sweeping the apricot blossoms downstairs. Today, the academy should be resting. Through the gatehouse, there was no sound of reading in the bushes of houses, and there were people. It was also those scholars wearing black and white academy costumes walked out of the gatehouse.

Feeling someone coming, the old woman looked up and saw that it was a handsome boy. She glanced at him a few more times, and then noticed that the boy was wearing a shabby Taoist robe and the long mahogany sword behind him.

"The person in the temple?" The old woman's back was straightened a little, and her hands holding the broom tightened a little.

She could sense the state of a young man and knew that there was no Taoist temple in the world that no one could cultivate such a young man. Moreover, because she saw through the eyes of the world, she saw that the wooden sword was stained with blood from many people, and those people could be called great practitioners in the world.

Even though the other party is young, he cannot be underestimated when he comes to the academy.

Ye Qi could also feel the old woman's realm, and he could even feel the feeling that Yan Se had brought to him in the old woman. She was a divine talisman master or a divine talisman master at the peak of the realm of knowing fate.

He saluted and replied calmly: "Yes."

Seeing that he was polite and had not relaxed, the old woman asked again: "What's wrong with you coming to the academy?"

Ye Qi still said bluntly: "Go up to the second floor."

Going to the second floor would be either going to the second floor to cause trouble, but that was the same disciple in Guanli who also carried a wooden sword on his back would not dare to come to the second floor to cause trouble. He would go to the second floor to study.

The old woman did not ask why the young man came to study in the second floor. She hunched her back straight, smiled and showed a few sparse teeth in her mouth, and said, "The Master did not open a second floor this year." As she said, she pointed to the stone path connecting the door and said, "However, if you keep walking along this road, you will see a building. There is a disciple of the second floor under the wooden window in front of the building. She will copy books there every day, you can ask her."

Ye Qi bowed and thanked the old man again, and then walked straight along the stone road.

...

In the back mountain of the academy, in front of a golden thatched house with air flowing on all sides, there was an iron pot on three bluestones. The water in the iron pot was boiled by the firewood in the stones. The middle-aged scholar wearing straw sandals and torn jacket slowly added thin slices of mutton into the pot.

The tall old man sat on the lounge chair, frowned and looked at it. It took half a cup of tea to cut a meat. He put the meat in the pot and grabbed it and put it in it. Why is it still so slow?

A few thatched grass was smoked by fireworks, and three or two fell down, which happened to land on the old man's head. The old man's heartache flashed by. Looking at the middle-aged scholar's appearance, he wanted to get some fire to make his elder disciple stop being slower. Suddenly, he felt something and stood up and exclaimed.

The middle-aged scholar put the kitchen knife in his hand as a plate back on the chopping board on the grass in the house, looked at the old man and asked slowly, "Teacher, what are the instructions?"

The master gave him a blank look and said, "Tell Junmo and the others, prepare for it, someone will climb the tower today."

...

When he came to the academy and looked at the mountain in the distance, which was covered with mist under the sunny sun, Ye Qi felt inexplicably relaxed. This kind of relaxation was a relaxation he had never felt before.

When he looked at the flowers and plants of the academy, the bamboo forests of the academy, and the broken eaves of the academy, he felt very pleasing to him.

I was addicted to seeing it, and before I knew it, I walked at the end of the stone path and came to a building. The building had three floors, without intrigue, nor was there a colorful red wall door. It was just built on the terrain at the foot of the mountain, looking so natural and ancient, just like the three words on the wooden door, an old book building.

There is a wooden window in the old bookstore facing the simple corridor. Under the open wooden window, a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old raised her sleeves to copy books like a quiet lake without wind.

Ye Qi looked at the girl, and the girl looked at Ye Qi with emotion. For some reason, the two of them smiled as if they were both smiling.

The girl rarely laughed, but she met Master in the wasteland more than ten years ago. Later, she came to this academy that always makes people feel peaceful and peaceful. She would not laugh when she saw interesting classmates every day, but when she saw Ye Qi, she smiled.

For such a strange and unreasonable thing, the girl should have thought about the reason, but she did not think about it, but asked, "Is there anything you need to do when you come to the academy?"

The old woman downstairs of the academy gate knew that Ye Qi was from the Taoist temple in Xiling, and the girl naturally knew that her question was short, but her tone was more like the world than usual.

Ye Qi nodded, knowing that she was the 23rd-year-old sect leader who had been hiding in the world for many years, and asked, "How do you climb the tower?"

The girl naturally would not think that the building he wanted to climb was the old bookstore where he was. Looking at the mountain, she said, "Since you can come here, Master must know what you think, please follow me."

Ye Qi thanked and said, "Thank you."

The girl pressed the copied book paper on the desk, put the fine pen in her hand, covered the thick ink in the inkstone, got up and walked out of the old bookstore, reminding Ye Qi again, followed, and walked around a water sieve at the end of the stone path, towards the mountain.

Ye Qi followed the girl, smelling the turbulent fragrance of the black hair behind the girl walking with lotus steps, and suddenly asked: "Why did I feel very familiar after seeing you? We've seen it?"
