Rising Xianxia World

Chapter 25 Landscape Poetry

"Bam—"

On the stone bridge, the sound of collision echoed, and the two figures retreated a few steps at the same time.

In the breeze and drizzle, the pink ribbon on the peach tree is still flying with the wind.

"what?"

Ji Changge looked at Gu Qiubai in surprise, his cultivation was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining, yet he could compete with him?
Especially since I have taken medicinal baths since I was a child, and I have practiced the body training method, my physique is extraordinary, but I am still frustrated. If this is spread, it will not be ridiculed.

His expression couldn't help but turn cold, even if he wanted to overwhelm someone with force, he still had to get the ribbon in front of him.

"You want to stop me?" Ji Changge looked at Gu Qiubai indifferently.

In terms of poetry, the competition is about talent, but to get the ribbon right now, the competition is one's own hard power.

Ji Changge is not a pedantic scholar, but he doesn't pay attention to convincing others with virtue. After all, the world is dominated by the weak and the strong.

Gu Qiubai was not afraid at all, and smiled calmly: "This ribbon is hanging on the tree, you can get it if you have the ability!"

He secretly circulated his spiritual power and prepared to destroy the ribbon. Although he couldn't grab it, it was more than enough for Gu Qiubai to destroy it.

The "Slaying Immortal Jue" he practiced was mainly domineering, and he was born to restrain the cultivation of immortals. Ji Changge would definitely not be able to keep the ribbon by surprise.

It's a big deal, it's a one shot and two parts, no one can think about this last couplet of poems!
Ji Changge didn't speak anymore, the ribbon in front of him was already in his pocket, and he didn't think Gu Qiubai was capable of snatching it from him.

However, when he stretched out his hand, the ribbon in front of him flew up with the wind and fell to the bridge!
"Fucking, I'll help you if you're not right!" Ninth Piaoling wrinkled her nose, "Just to see what's so great about the poem couplet on the bridge on the left."

"Miss, what about keeping a low profile?" Xiaoqing said with a bitter face.

When she was not paying attention, she found that her young lady had become the focus of the audience again.

Ji Changge and Gu Qiubai were startled at the same time, neither of them expected that someone else would intervene at this juncture.

Gu Qiubai's eyes turned back, and when he saw that it was the Ninth Piaoling, the corners of his mouth curled up, showing a hint of a smile, and the spiritual power in his body quietly calmed down.

This girl really likes to meddle in other people's business!
But that's fine, otherwise, if he used his spiritual power, there would still be a risk of being exposed.

When the time comes, not only will the task not be completed, but one will have to spend a Death Talisman to escape, which is not worth the loss.

Ji Changge's expression was cold, looking at the Ninth Piaoling in front of him, he didn't make a rash move.

He also discovered that the cultivation base of the purple-clothed woman in front of him was also in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, even slightly higher than his.

"Interesting." He put his hands behind his back and looked at the woman in purple.

He didn't think the woman in purple in front of him could match the last poem.

There is no benefit in rushing to fight right now, and it may ruin the poem couplet. It is better to wait for the purple-clothed woman to return with a feather, and then take the ribbon.

Ji Changge being able to be arranged by the family to go down the mountain to refine his mind is in itself a kind of recognition for him, and he naturally knows how to be flexible in handling things.

Ninth Piaoling squinted her crescent-like eyes, looked at the upper couplet on the ribbon, then tilted her head, thinking hard.

The talented man on the stone bridge looked at this scene, and he was also amused in his heart. The two talented people compare well, why are you running around to join in the fun? Isn't this nonsense?

But they still dare not speak out, there is no way, the strength of Ninth Piaoling is there, they can't talk about it, they can't beat it, what can they do?
However, to their surprise, Jiu Piaoling actually picked up a peach branch and wrote the next couplet on the ribbon after thinking for a while.

"This girl still writes well. If the ribbon doesn't respond later, she's going to cry." Many talented scholars laughed.

It's just that things always develop in the most unexpected direction.

In everyone's eyes, the ribbon began to emit a faint golden light, which gradually changed from pink to red.

I'll go, that's okay?

Everyone, including Gu Qiubai and Ji Changge, were shocked, did she really confront her?

"Yeah, you're right." Ninth Piaoling stuck out her tongue, revealing two lovely dimples.

Meng... Meng, right?

I dare you to be fooled, can you be more outrageous? !
All the gifted scholars looked like they were about to cry but they didn't have any tears. After answering the questions for so long, it's better for others to get caught once.

Governor Wei also had black hair, he saw the second line of the Ninth Piaoling Pair, and couldn't help but feel helpless.

This girl took advantage of a loophole, but she just aligned the words on the surface neatly, and the artistic conception obviously did not meet the requirements.

At that time, when he set up the second line, considering the difficulty on the left side, he set relatively loose conditions, but he didn't expect it to be taken advantage of.

Of course, it is also difficult to be right and neat, otherwise so many talents would not all return home.

"This girl has some aura. Although she can't compare to Gu Qiubai and Ji Changge, she can still be called beautiful and intelligent."

Governor Wei nodded secretly. Looking at all the talents, he also felt that this round is almost over, so he said: "All talents, please show the ribbons in your hands, and the top [-] can pass the stone bridge to enter the next round!"

Ji Changge and Gu Qiubai have the same ribbon in their hands, and they both ranked first at the same time!

"Let's compete again in the next round!" Ji Changge drifted away.

"I can't ask for it."

Soon, the two county guards of Wei counted the top [-] places.

This time, Liu Changzong was unfortunately not selected and had to withdraw from Nanshan.

"Hey, brother Gu, it seems that I'm still not talented enough, we can only say goodbye here." Liu Changzong sighed.

Combining poems is not his strong point, and in the end he only matched ten, which was not enough.

Gu Qiubai patted Liu Changzong's shoulder: "Mo Chou has no confidant in the future, who in the world doesn't know the king?"

After hearing Gu Qiubai's words, Liu Changzong's eyes lit up. This poem is really uplifting!
"Brother Gu is really talented, even saying goodbye is so easy and heroic!" Liu Changzong laughed, and the loss in his heart gradually dissipated.

The two waved goodbye, and Gu Qiubai stepped directly across the stone bridge into the depths of the Peach Blossom Spring.

Walking all the way, accompanied by scattered peach blossoms, does not have a poetic and picturesque flavor.

A few minutes later, passing through the peach forest, the field of vision became wide open.

Everyone came to a cliff, surrounded by green hills on both sides, full of vitality.

Going over the green hills and looking into the distance, you can see a raging river rushing towards the east like a dragon.

This is the famous Chu River. Its source is Chu State. After passing through the Tianmen, which straddles the border between the two countries, it rushes all the way into the sea, and branches in the middle.

Governor Wei looked at the Chu River in the distance, and a sense of heroism welled up in his heart. He had been to the source of the Chu River back then, and the magnificence and waves were far better than this.

He looked back at the gifted scholar behind him, and said, "The third round of competition is very simple. Inside a stick of incense, with landscape as the center, and a poem, I will select the top ten to enter the final round of competition!"
