I'm taking the imperial examinations in Liaozhai

Ji Zihe, a simple kid from the countryside, was shocked. Are all the people in the city so good at playing?He always thought that bookboys were just accompanying people to study and doing some work along the way, but he didn't expect that rich people would specially choose some good-looking boys to be bookboys. In addition to accompanying them in reading and working, they also took care of their master's physical needs.

The thing is like this, after dinner in the evening, Ji Zihe made a special trip to find Ning Caichen to ask about the doubts in his heart when he saw Luo Feng during the day, and Ning Caichen told him this.Ji Zihe was shocked. If Luo Feng was a woman, maybe Zhang Yudan could give him a title, but he is a man.But Ning Caichen said that this kind of thing is very common. Some scholars from rich families study hard, in order to concentrate and not get close to women, so they will find a handsome young man to be a school boy.

This really overturned Ji Zihe's world view of the honest boy. He said that he was a romantic and talented man, but Brother Zhang had a wife and a concubine. What is the difference between him and those men who have a wife?

Since there are many empty rooms in this temple, and all of them have been specially repaired, Ji Zihe did not share a room with Ning Caichen this time, and he has his own room.

It was already dark, Ji Zihe lit the oil lamp and continued to read, but he just couldn't read a word.He simply put down the book, took out a piece of local bamboo wind paper and started painting.

Ji Zihe draws very quickly, because he has drawn this painting countless times, and he can draw it with his eyes closed.Outlined with a stroke of brushstrokes, the movements are smooth and flowing, and it didn't take long for a painting that was exactly the same as the one he sold before to appear on the paper.

Bones watched the whole process, but after the painting was completed, he was not half happy, "No, no, this painting is wrong!"

"What's wrong, isn't it exactly the same as the one I had before?" Ji Zihe put down his pen and asked in confusion.

"It's just not right, this is just an ordinary painting, there is nothing in it!" Bones became anxious, and simply turned into a solid body, picked up the painting and looked at it over and over again.

Ji Zihe looked dazed, isn't it just an ordinary painting, and it can turn into a flower!

Bones looked at Ji Zihe, and found that he also looked ignorant, knowing that he didn't know the secrets in the painting, so he immediately drooped his shoulders, and put the painting back on the table, with a look of hopelessness.

"Don't do this." Ji Zihe patted him on the shoulder.

Bones thought for a while, and his body gradually became smaller, his lower body was still covered in smoke, but his upper body became exactly like Ji Zihe's. "I think it's not good for my image to use my face to make this expression."

So using my face to make this expression is good for my image?Besides, isn't your behavior just deception.Ji Zihe looked at the face in front of him that was the same as his own, and found it strange no matter how he looked at it.

"Don't become like me, it's ugly!" Ji Zihe covered his face.

"Heh." Gu Gu lay on the table, staring at the two dead fish eyes, as if a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

"It's really none of my business. I used to draw like that, and I don't know what's in my paintings." Ji Zihe tried to explain.

Bones picked his nostrils, curled his lips, and expressed his attitude with actions.I believe you are a ghost, you are a bad old man...you are a bad kid!

Bones successfully disgusted Ji Zihe. He never knew that someone could use his own face to pick his nostrils so hotly.Although he didn't know if there was really something in the ghost's nostrils, Ji Zihe believed that even if there wasn't, a bone could be dug out to make him sick.

"Don't worry, although I'm not good at copying, but I can show you the real one."

"Authentic, is it possible that there is really a picture of immortals?" Bones stopped picking his nostrils.

"That's right, it's hanging in my study. It's a family heirloom." Ji Zihe said.The reason why he is so proficient in drawing this painting is entirely because he has copied this picture since he was a child, and the more he draws, the more he will naturally become proficient.

"And the story I told is also true. The person who saved Xiaolong in the story was actually my wife and grandfather. My grandfather told me this story when I was young."

"Then is this painting real?"

"It's not impossible. After all, this painting has been passed down from generation to generation in our family. After the college examination is over, I will take you back to my house and show you this painting."

Gu Cong stood up, floated in front of Ji Zihe, stretched out his hands to hold his face, "Why do you trust others so easily, what if I am a bad person and want to take away your family heirloom?"

"I know you're not." Ji Zihe said naturally.

Bone narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure?"

Ji Zihe was puzzled. Although it was a family heirloom, it was just a painting to him and had no special meaning. So it was not certain whether the legend was true or not.

Furthermore, the bones are ghosts but not humans. In Ji Zihe's view, ghosts are much more credible than humans. They are already people from another world, and they will be reincarnated sooner or later.No matter how good the things in Yangjian are, they will not miss them. Even if the paintings are antiques and valuable, they have no reason to steal or destroy them.

"Anyway, the painting is still there. If I can help my friend, I will be very happy."

"You said we are friends?" Bone was stunned for a moment, then grinned happily, "Yes, of course we are friends. You have promised to take me to see the painting, you can't go back on your word."

Ji Zihe nodded, and pulled Bone's cold hand off his face, "Brother Bone, can you change back now?"

"Let me think about it, I find that you are easy to be soft-hearted towards weak things, or I will become a human brat."

Ji Zihe: ...

Please don't make trouble!

Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside the window, as if something had fallen into the yard.

Gu Gu returned to his original appearance in an instant, and said vigilantly, "There is a monster!"

"Is there a monster coming? Let's go out and have a look. I'm afraid my cousin and the others are in danger." Ji Zihe took out the sword bag Yan Chixia gave him from the cloth bag on his waist, as the only person here who could see the ghost , His sense of responsibility is overwhelming right now.

Bones wanted to say something, but seeing Ji Zihe's appearance, he didn't speak.

Ji Zihe went out with an oil lamp, just in time to see Luo Feng coming out with a lantern.Seeing Ji Zihe, he smiled and said, "Did Mr. Ji hear anything?"

Ji Zihe nodded, then shook his head again, "No, I made that sound, I didn't see the way when I was about to go to the toilet, accidentally stepped on the empty space and fell, so I ran back to get the lamp. "

"Are you injured, do you need me to get you some medicine?"

"No, I'm fine, you go back to sleep quickly."

Hearing what Ji Zihe said, Luo Feng didn't suspect him, so he went back to his room to rest.Ji Zihe breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he left, otherwise if a monster suddenly jumped out, he would have no way to explain it.

Ji Zihe carefully guarded the oil lamp and walked into the yard. Before taking two steps, he stepped on something.He bent down to check, but found that it was a dry red lotus with hoar frost on it, as if it had just been taken out of the ice and snow.
