Chapter 42

In the autumn of Xicheng, in addition to the yellow ginkgo leaves along the road, there are also the red maple leaves all over the mountains, which complement the winding peaks. The colorful ones look even more colorful than spring and summer. Δ『

Every year, this is the most lively time in Xicheng. Before entering the city, there are all kinds of vendors standing on both sides of the official road, and everything they sell is full of food, clothing, fun and wear. As long as you want it, you can see it for sale.

However, the ones that make people stop the most are the stalls with pen and ink books. Obviously, those who come here are all for book friends.

The central carriages in Guan Road were connected in a series. Because they had to undergo inspection when entering the city, they walked very slowly. However, although the outside of the city was congested, it was a different scene after entering the city. The wide streets were enough for three carriages to walk in parallel. Although there were many people, the place was large and it was not necessarily crowded.

Yao Si stood at the gate of the city quietly, shocked by the current prosperity. The west city felt that it was as good as ten Xiaxiang counties. She had thought Xiaxiang County was already big enough, but now she felt that she was really a frog in the well and had never seen the world.

"Stop being alone, you will have the opportunity to see it in the future--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yao Si came back to his senses, followed happily, and looked around while walking, sighing: "This Xicheng is so good. I haven't seen anyone making trouble. Everyone is so orderly, which is really unaccustomed to it."

In Xiaxiang County, you can’t count the ten fingers you sneaked on the street every day, and everyone is not surprised. Even watching the fun is boring. Compared with the county, this place is simply a holy place.

Chu Meng laughed: "Don't be confused by this appearance. No matter how good Xicheng is, it cannot escape from Xiye Kingdom. This country has become corrupt. Even though it looks glamorous on the surface, it is unbearable inside."

His ridicule was so strong that Yao Si thought he was going to lose control of his emotions. If it weren't for the fact that he seemed too calm on that side, she almost wanted to stop Chu Meng and told him not to be impulsive.

Fortunately, Chu Meng said that he was still looking around to find the inn.

Yao Si breathed a sigh of relief and secretly concluded that Chu Meng was a good young man who hated evil. Perhaps because he had no way to serve the country, he hated helplessness about the status quo, so he always revealed a desire to strive for change.

"Just here, many other inns are full of customers, no matter how good they are, they can't find them." Chu Meng stopped in front of a seemingly large inn.

Yao Si looked at the plaque and looked at the environment inside the inn. It was even more gorgeous than the best inn in Xiaxiang County. She was a little timid and stepped forward and pulled Chu Meng's sleeve. "Brother--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chu Meng smiled slightly and had already walked in. Yao Si stood at the door and looked at him helplessly. Finally, he shook his head and walked in.

The shopkeeper was attentively introducing several rooms of which level. Yao Si was so anxious that the price was indeed more than twice as expensive as Xiaxiang County.

But Chu Meng accepted it happily and asked for two medium-sized rooms. She couldn't help but complain in her heart, whether she was the son of a hunter, the expenses along the way were at least four or five taels, which was the expenses of her family for a year.

At the same time, she felt more embarrassed. She didn't have much money on her. In the past month, she first hired a carriage and gave it to Chu Meng.

I finished the dry food half a month ago, and later I went to the restaurant all the way, and Chu Meng also paid out his pockets.

Now he is responsible for staying in the hotel, and Yao Si feels very uncomfortable. He silently recorded the accounts. Even if he is unable to repay them now, he will have to repay them if he has the chance in the future.

The accommodation was booked and I had lunch. Chu Meng ordered a few dishes and sat down with Yao Si at the window.

It's already hot and the cool breeze is still there. At noon, the streets are full of traffic. Yao Si thought to himself, it would be better to go out for a walk after dinner and just take a look at what the West City looks like.

Before she could think about how to speak to Chu Meng, the latter had already suggested: "After eating, I'll take you to a place."

Yao Si already knew that it was not the first time Chu Meng came to Xicheng. She was not surprised that the latter was familiar with this place, but she was curious about where it was. Xinqi asked: "Where are you going to take me? What's fun?"

Chu Meng first laughed, then deliberately looked stern: "You came here so far away just to play?"

Yao Si shrugged: "It will take six days for the book club. I haven't missed studying all the way, so why can't I play anymore?"

"What you said is reasonable." Chu Meng took a breath, stopped teasing her, and explained: "People who come to Xicheng to attend the book club will go to places called Boyoulou.

As the name suggests, this Boyou Tower is the attic where Bowen Coming Friends is. This attic is also the largest attic in Xicheng. It is located in the center of Xicheng, with a total of seven floors.

There are many different competition venues on each floor of Boyou Building. You can choose the topic you are best at and do the challenge questions at will, and there will naturally be people in the audience to face them.

And the champion who finally guarded the arena until no one dared to challenge him, he became the brave man in this ring."

Yao Si listened freshly and asked according to his own understanding: "Did the Boyoulou come from the Book Club? Before the real competition, everyone should first discuss the trial trial?"

Chu Meng smiled and praised: "It is precisely the rules of the Book Club's competition from the scientific examination, and the contents of the competition are very wide. In addition to the most common poems, verses, calligraphy and painting, riding and archery, classics, strategies, and mathematics, law, medicine, mantras, forbidden studies, Xuanzong studies, etc.

I'm afraid you haven't seen these things much, so I'll take you to see what's going on."

Yao Si was shocked when she heard this. She originally thought that book friends would be at most a large-scale occasion like scientific examinations, but it sounded completely different.

She drew circles on the table with her fingertips and sighed: "For so many subjects, at most one or two subjects will be chosen for competitions. Each subject will eventually produce a brave man. If you win among so many talents, it is no wonder that you can go directly to Yangshan Academy."

Chu Meng was worried that she was timid and comforted her: "Although there are many people coming, don't belittle yourself. No one will expect the result until the last moment. You should also relax."

Yao Si smiled and pretended to bow: "Thank you, brother, for your guidance-----------"

The waiter just came up with the food, and she urged: "Hurry up and go to see Boyoulou after you finish eating."

It was a good time at that time, neither early nor late. Except for Yao Si, many people in Xicheng had this idea. After dinner, they had to go to Boyoulou to check it out.
