On the eve of the winter trial.

After dinner, Tian Tian felt nervous and excited and couldn't fall asleep, so she hugged Xiao Ni and came to Yang Zheng's room to talk to him.

The young man and woman will participate in the winter exam, shouldering the hope of the future of Jimo City. They must strive for excellent results and shine brightly, and bring glory to the Jimo Tian family in front of the top powers and nobles at the top of Qi.

After entering the city, Xiao Ni successfully broke through the realm with the help of swallowing tigers alive. Tian Tian had reached the perfection of the three realms on the way, but she was only to participate in the winter test and was patient and not promoted.

Yang Zheng knew that she was thinking about herself and fighting side by side so as to avoid an unexpected situation. Otherwise, after she entered the fourth realm, she could have received a separate test from the military like Han Fei.

The winter test is related to the dispute over sacrificial wine, and it is destined to be full of murderous intentions. It will never be as simple as an exam.

Tian Tian leaned lazily on the chair, rubbing the snow-white cat's back. After these days, she, who was already generous, was more casual and natural in front of Yang Zheng, without any need to be deliberately reserved.

"Yang Zheng, did you choose to use a sword or a knife this time?"

Yang Zheng stood under the lamp, holding the bright red dragon blood sword, rubbed and appreciated it carefully, and couldn't let go of it.

"In my eyes, there is no difference between a knife and a sword itself. The real difference lies in the user's move style. As long as I am fierce and fierce, and my offensive is strong, the sword in my hand is a knife!"

Tian Tianbingxue was smart, looking at his back and smiled, "I understand. You want to use this sword to adapt to the situation, sometimes you use a sword and sometimes you use a knife, without delaying it, right?"

Yang Zheng nodded, "I tried it during the day. This dragon blood sword is not only extremely sharp, but also has a bloodthirsty evil spirit, and seems to be eager to kill people and drink blood. There is no doubt that it is the best in the world."

I have to say that the timely gift of helping him and sending this spiritual sword in time can help him avoid the loss of taking weapons during the winter trial. However, at present, he still cannot realize its power for the time being.

The Juque Sword can shatter enemy weapons. This dragon blood sword is from the hands of a mysterious figure, so it should be extraordinary, right?

Tian Tian reminded: "Although you have a spiritual sword in your hand, you can't be careless. We only have two people, and there must be many elites raised by Taoism."

Taoists have failed to recruit Yang Zheng as a huge threat and will definitely wait for an opportunity to suppress and exclude him and prevent him from entering the academy. This is obvious.

Yang Zheng frowned slightly and didn't say anything. These days, as long as he remembered the winter trial, a feeling of uneasiness would arise in his heart, which could not be removed.

He always feels something will happen.

Suddenly, a knock on the door sounded outside, "Master, are you asleep?"

Recently, after Li Si comes back from the gambling house every night, he will come to report immediately, first report on his experience during the day, and then go down to rest.

Tian Tian thought of something, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she stood up and was about to leave. At this time, Yang Zheng glanced at her and smiled, "Anyway, the marriage has been settled, so I'm afraid that others will misunderstand? Come in!"

She sat back obediently, stared at Xiao Ni, and secretly raised the corners of her mouth.

Li Si walked in and began to tell the experience of the day according to his memory.

Although the affairs of the gambling house were busy, there were only a few procedures. Yang Zheng was familiar with them and continued to wipe the blood-red sword body, a little careless.

After Li Si finished speaking, he stood with his hands down and waited for the instructions.

Yang Zheng turned his back to him and asked Youyou: "Li Si, you have been busy staring at the gambling house recently. You probably don't have time to play chess with Mr. Han Fei, right?"

Li Si replied: "No. Chess is a small matter, and I will never neglect the tasks assigned by the master."

He didn't know that when Yang Zheng knew his real name, he had seen through his life in advance.

Yang Zheng nodded, "I know that you are very scheming and eager to practice, and you have the intention of clinging to Han Fei. But you have to know that if you don't allow you to do something, you can't have any unreasonable thoughts."

As he said that, he took out a booklet from his sleeve and handed it to Li Si.

"This errand was done well. I fulfilled my promise and rewarded you with the "Xiebi Chapter". Don't underestimate it. This is Xun Sheng's unique skill. It is handed over by the great master to me. You have to practice hard and don't let my expectations down."

Upon hearing this, Li Si held the booklet in both hands, tears flashing in his eyes, and his whole body was trembling with excitement.

He knew very well that Confucianism was the only method suitable for his own practice. Over the years, he had longed to enter the academy and dreamed of becoming a disciple of Xun Sheng. Unexpectedly, tonight he could obtain Xun Sheng's unique skills and truly touch his dreams.

He bent down deeply and said tremblingly: "Thank you, Master, for your kindness. As long as I can repay you, I will do whatever I can!"

All this happened too quickly, and he couldn't believe that Yang Zheng would be willing to give him such a precious technique.

Yang Zheng turned around and looked at him, "Torn to pieces? You shouldn't say such flattering words in front of me in the future. If you are grateful, stay away from Han Fei in the future. Everyone has their own destiny. You two are not fellow men."

Although he knew that Han Fei and Li Si would become brothers, he didn't want these two people to get too close. Han Fei had a simple personality and was killed in history because he believed in Li Si and could not see through the sinister hearts of the people.

It is difficult to change Han Fei's personality, and the most effective way is to hit Li Si.

Li Si quickly said yes, and was grateful.

Yang Zheng waved his hand, "As long as you obey me faithfully, I will not treat you badly. Go on!"

After Li Si saluted, he turned around and left.

As soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly fell back and said, "By the way, something happened before I left the gambling house. Although it was very small, it was quite strange. I just missed it."

"explain."

"When the shopkeeper arrived at the yard and got rid of his hands, only I stood behind the counter. A middle-aged man walked into the gambling house with a hurried look and told me that he wanted to see Xia Kui..."

"I was confused and told him that there was no such person in the store. He was dazed at the time and said that he had gone wrong and turned around and was about to leave. The shopkeeper happened to come out and pulled him into the backyard."

Yang Zheng frowned and thought, and analyzed: "The shopkeeper took him away, proving that these two people must know each other. In other words, he lied and did not go to the wrong place. There is really Xia Kui in the gambling house."

Li Si nodded, "Yes, I think so too. However, I stayed there for a whole month and met everyone in the gambling house. I am sure that none of them were named Xia Kui."

Tian Tian thought, "Maybe, Xia Kui is a pseudonym. He doesn't use this name when dealing with others, so you haven't heard of it. Or maybe, Xia Kui is not in the store recently, and you haven't seen him?"

Li Si retorted: "If this is the case, why would that person lie and say he went to the wrong place? What's even more strange is that I asked the shopkeeper afterwards, and the shopkeeper told me that I heard it wrong, and the man said he was meeting the shopkeeper."
