Confucian Sword Immortal: After studying for ten years, his majesty reaches the sky

Knife and Axe Hall.

The cottage here is a small cottage with dozens of bandits.

Don't look at the number of bandits in the Sword and Axe Hall, but they are definitely a force to be reckoned with.

Every thief in this cottage is a middle-aged martial artist, and his combat effectiveness is extremely strong, and even many big cottages in the vicinity dare not be easily provoked.

"Boss, I've already found out, that scholar named Chen Ning left Ning'an Village in two days later to enter Beijing to take the exam. A

little thief hurried into the cottage to report.

"Haha, I didn't expect the information to be true.

I can't imagine that in this year, there are still scholars who dare not follow the dart line alone, it is simply a fat sheep delivered to the mouth in person!"

The Scar Thief, who was sitting in the main seat, suddenly laughed with joy.

"What about anything else?"

"I've already confirmed that this scholar does have a beautiful maid like a fairy, and this time there is only one weak old monk from Ming Silent Temple.

If our village wants to take him down, it is estimated that it will not be effortless at all.

Hearing this, the second-in-command and third-in-command sitting on both sides of the plane also suddenly became excited:

"It's really a gift from God!

If you want to enter Beijing to take the exam, this scholar must have a lot of silver taels on him."

He also has a well-known beauty from a nearby village by his side, and our Sword and Axe Hall is simply going to reap both wealth and lust this time!"

"That's right, in fact, I have long been thinking about that beautiful chick in Ning'an Village, if it weren't for the fact that there may be demons in the village, I would have killed and robbed people a long time ago."

This great opportunity, after the boss has enjoyed it exclusively, you must share a mouthful of soup with our brothers!"

"Haha, don't worry, I can't wait just like you."

The Scar Bandit laughed, a wicked smile on his lips.

......

Two days later.

The old monk who drove the Ming Silence Temple rushed to Ning'an Village.

Here, Chen Ning and Qing Yan also packed their bags.

After one last glance at the house, the two locked the door.

Things are ready, but there are still some things to do before we go.

Chen Ning poured a glass of wine in front of the graves of Hongye and Mr. Mujing, a teacher, as a remembrance of the deceased, and went to the old village chief's house.

Hear this. The old village chief couldn't help but sigh:

"Mr. Chen is leaving?"

Alas, but everyone has their own way, Mr. Chen has lofty ambitions, and the old man is not qualified to stop him.

I would like to thank Mr. Chen for teaching the children to read, and for his kindness to slaying demons in the village recently, and I hope we can meet again in the future.

Chen Ning was right, the old village chief was indeed the only person in the village who knew his identity.

However, after living in Ning'an Village for so long, Chen Ning actually had no intention of giving up the children in the village.

He took out a piece of paper from his arms:

"The village chief doesn't have to worry, the matter of the village middle school students can rest assured that they will be handed over to him."

This paper figure is a puppet clone I made, and it can last about two hours at a time, which should be enough to meet the needs of the children for one lesson in the morning and one in the afternoon. The

words fell, and the paper figure suddenly turned into Chen Ning's appearance.

The paper puppet not only looks exactly the same as Chen Ning, but its speech and knowledge are almost the same as Chen Ning's, even the old village chief who has known each other for two years can't see any difference at all.

"This, is this a miracle!" The

moment he touched the paper figure, the old village chief was instantly shocked.

I can't even feel anything unusual about my body temperature or touch, and this paper figure is so realistic that it makes people feel terrible!"

Mr. Chen's kindness will be unforgettable for the people and children in Ning'an Village!" the

old village chief let go of his crutches and raised his fists gratefully.

......

After bidding farewell to the village chief, Chen Ning and Qing Yan got into the carriage.

The scene in the village quickly swept backwards, and the carriage was about to leave Ning'an Village.

At this moment, a group of children suddenly appeared on the side of the road.

These children turned out to be students in private schools.

Children of this age are obviously very playful, but today, none of the students in the private school are absent.

They stood on both sides of the road, each holding a freshly picked wildflower in their hands.

"Mr. Chen!"

The moment they saw the carriage, the children immediately raised their arms high.

"Goodbye Mr. Chen, thank you Mr. Chen for teaching us to read.

"I wish Mr. Chen a smooth journey, a top student in high school!" the

carriage was moving very fast, and the children waved goodbye, not wanting to leave the carriage for a moment.

"Goodbye.

Hearing the voice, Chen Ning also lifted the curtain, smiled and waved to the children in the village.

Until the carriage gradually moved away, the children still watched Chen Ning until he completely disappeared from view.

"Although the children in the village do not read much, they all have a heart that knows how to be grateful. Sitting

in the car, Qing Yan couldn't help but sigh lightly.

......

Soon, the carriage left the village and entered an open mountain road.

The spring light is bright, the mountains and rivers are beautiful along the way, and the spring flowers are blooming.

Qing Yan sometimes looked at the scenery outside excitedly, and sometimes quietly accompanied Chen Ning to read.

The carriage traveled for more than an hour, but it didn't feel boring at all.

"Those who know are happy with water, and those who are benevolent are happy with mountains; Those who know move, and those who are benevolent ...... quietly"

was reading a book, but Chen Ning suddenly felt a burst of heat in his sleeve.

Shaking his sleeves, Xiao Jiu fell out of it directly.

Unlike before, Xiao Jiu's snake skin at this moment was actually covered with a layer of semi-transparent golden yellow, and it was constantly emitting a scorching high temperature.

Qing Yan was surprised: "Young Master, what's wrong with Xiao Jiu?"

"It looks like it should be molting, no wonder this little guy is so quiet along the way."

Looking closer, Chen Ning soon found that Xiao Jiu's skin at the end of his snout had worn a crack, and he was trying to gradually flip it back from beginning to end.

Every time a snake molts its skin, it grows once, and so must Xiao Jiu.

Chen Ning used a wisp of purple qi to protect Xiao Jiushang's somewhat fragile body and help it molt more safely.

Little by little, time passed.

First tried to use the snake's head to break the old skin, then half of the body, and finally, Xiao Jiu's last tail also came out of the snakeskin.

“︿(￣︶￣)︿。 After

successfully completing the molt, Xiao Jiu's whole body looked new, and even the snakeskin became even darker and shinier than before.

What's more, if you look closely, a small bulge appeared on the top of Xiao Jiu's head at some point.

The bulge looks like a horn, but because the horn is so small, it looks like it has a small fang.

It seems that Xiao Jiu seems to be evolving towards the form of Jiao.

It's a pity that its small sharp corner really doesn't look majestic at all.

It can even be said that it looks a little cute......

"Besides, you don't seem to have grown much after molting.

After taking a closer look at Xiao Jiu, Chen Ning found that although it had grown, the changes were pitiful.

If Xiao Jiu was about the length of his index finger, then his current size has only grown to the length of his middle finger at most.

Xiao Jiu tilted his head a little angrily: Don't underestimate me!

In order to show his strength, Xiao Jiu shook his body, and his whole body was covered with a layer of golden light.

With the flow of brilliance, its body began to grow slowly, and in a short time, it was already the size of an arm.

Looking at the slightly surprised eyes of the two, Xiao Jiu couldn't help but feel a little proud.

His own strength doesn't stop there!

With the light shining, Xiao Jiu's body skyrocketed again.

It wasn't until it grew to the point that almost the entire carriage could not fit it, and Xiao Jiu re-transformed into his original body the size of a finger.

It ran to Chen Ning's side and rubbed Chen Ning's hand affectionately, as if saying triumphantly: "

How's it going?

Chen Ning rarely praised Xiao Jiu once.

Xiao Jiu's ability to be big or small is indeed very convenient, otherwise if he really grows into a giant python, he really can't take it with him in the capital.

And after being able to grow in size at any time, Xiao Jiu's current combat effectiveness should not be the same as before.

The carriage continued to move forward, and Xiao Jiu, who had just finished transforming, looked very happy.

One second he was running around in Chen Ning's books, and the next second he actually got into Qing Yan's clothes and wandered around, causing exclamations again and again.

If it weren't for the fact that it was a little female snake, Chen Ning would have thrown it directly out of the carriage a long time ago.

At this moment, the speed of the carriage quietly slowed down.

The old monk, who had been driving seriously, came to the front of the car and lowered his voice vigilantly:

"Chen Daoyou, I have felt that there seems to be a strange aura since just now, I'm afraid that we have been targeted.

"I feel it too, but it's just a bunch of petty thieves, so there's no need to delay them in time.

Xiao Jiu, I'll leave these people to you.

Chen Ning only smiled slightly.

Xiao Jiu was eager to try, wanting to find an opportunity to try his current strength.

Hearing this, even if he was excited, he stood up.

The carriage slowed down slightly, and Xiao Jiu jumped directly into the grass on the side of the mountain.

No one noticed that a small black snake the size of a finger was quietly heading towards ...... top of the mountain
