The provincial examination began.

Shi Qingluo and Mrs. Kong prepared things for Xiao Hanzheng to take the exam, and the family sent him to take the exam.

After the examination room was closed, Shi Qingluo and others left.

The provincial examination had three sessions, and each session took three days.

Xiao Hanzheng was well-prepared. After waking up, he practiced martial arts to exercise his body, and often drank the spiritual spring that Shi Qingluo added to the water tank, so his body was solid.

After three examinations, many candidates fell ill.

Or they walked out of the examination room with a weak step, or they looked in a terrible mental state.

Xiao Hanzheng always walked out of the examination room gracefully, which made the candidates of the same period envious.

The time for the opening of the special examination was very tight. In order not to affect the formal autumn examination at the end of the year, they were all tested in succession, and the results would be released earlier than the normal examination.

Therefore, the provincial examination took about 20 days, that is, the results would be released in March.

Then the time of the imperial examination was also moved forward to May.

After getting the results, if they pass the exam, they have to go home and prepare to rush to the capital to continue the exam. Time was very tight.

During the twenty-day waiting time, Xiao Hanzheng and his friends did not go home and stayed in the city.

They go around and have fun.

That day, Xiao Hanzheng followed Master Hou to meet friends, and Shi Qingluo took Mrs. Kong and the other two to a very famous Taoist Temple outside the city to burn incense.

The back mountain of the Taoist Temple was full of peach trees. March was the season for peach blossoms to bloom. The peach blossoms all over the mountain were very beautiful.

After Shi Qingluo took a few people around, they went back to the reserved room to rest.

She made an appointment with Xiao Hanzheng that he would pick them up later.

Xiao Baili has been learning to paint recently and was very enthusiastic.

So she asked Shi Qingluo: “Sister-in-law, I want to go to the back mountain to paint, is that okay?”

Shi Qingluo smiled and said: “Of course.”

“Go ahead, just come back before your brother arrives.”

Xiao Baili has been practicing martial arts with them for more than half a year, and she has taught her a lot of fighting and grappling techniques.

There was also a soft whip around her waist that she specially customized for Xiao Baili, which ordinary people cannot move.

Shi Qingluo also knew that Xiao Hanzheng had paid someone to protect his family in secret.

So she was still relieved that Xiao Baili went out alone.

“Thank you, sister-in-law, I will be back after I finish painting.”

Xiao Baili happily carried the painting tools that her sister-in-law had made for her and went out.

After arriving at the back mountain, because many people were watching the peach blossoms in front, Xiao Baili chose a remote hillside with no one.

Just as she set up the drawing board and took up the pen to draw a few strokes, three wretched-looking men suddenly came over.

One of them looked Xiao Baili up and down and asked jokingly: “Are you painting, young lady?”

If it were the old Xiao Baili, she would be frightened or very scared by the appearance of the three people.

Now seeing the three people, although she was a little nervous, her eyes were more excited.

She had always wanted to see the results of her martial arts training, and these people came to her door just in time for her to try.

The reason why she was so carefree was because Xiao Baili knew that her brother had someone to protect them.

When she came here just now, she found that the protectors had also followed.

So even if she couldn’t beat the three people, she was not afraid of anything happening.

She frowned and said: “It’s none of your business.”

The leading man was fat and big-eared, and smiled with a lewd face: “What’s the point of painting? Let your brothers play with you.”

After that, he led the other two to surround her.

Xiao Baili touched her waist, and when she touched the whip, she felt relieved.

The thin whip made by her sister-in-law was hidden in the belt around her waist, and others couldn’t see it at all.

And there was no need to untie the belt, just reach out and pull it out, which was very convenient.

The leading man reached out to touch Xiao Baili’s face after he finished speaking.

Just when Xiao Baili was about to whip, a voice suddenly sounded.

“Stop, what do you want to do?”

Then a handsome young man came over with two servants.

The fat man put down his hand, looked at the boy unhappily, and warned: “Don’t mind your own business, or I’ll be rude to you.”

The boy looked righteous: “Don’t think of bullying weak women, I’ll take care of this matter today.”

Then he looked at Xiao Baili and said comfortingly: “Don’t be afraid, Miss. I’m here.”

Xiao Baili, who didn’t succeed in whipping: “……”

I said mind your own business.

And such a hero saving the beauty was so clumsy.

Xiao Baili, who was often instilled with various anti-wolf stories by her sister-in-law, saw the boy appear, and her first thought was that these people were probably cooperating in the play.

She was embarrassed to watch.

She said: “No need to bother you.”

Zheng Tongfeng felt a little unhappy when he heard this. Could it be that this woman wanted these three hooligans to molest her?

When he thought about marrying such a woman in the future, his displeasure increased a little.

So he showed some displeasure in his eyes and frowned slightly: “Miss, I’m not afraid of trouble when I see injustice, so you don’t have to worry.”

Xiao Baili: “……”

Could the displeasure in this person’s eyes be more obvious? She’s not a fool.

She also frowned: “You’re not afraid of trouble, but I am.”

Zheng Tongfeng: “……”

The fat man was also stunned. He didn’t expect this little girl to look so weak, why didn’t she do things according to common sense? Wasn’t she afraid of being molested by them?

He thought about it and laughed: “Haha, the little lady doesn’t need your help.”

“Does the little lady want to play with the brothers?”

He stretched out his hand again: “Then the brothers will play with you.”

Zheng Tongfeng didn’t speak this time. He also wanted Xiao Baili to suffer a little loss, and then take the initiative to ask him for help.

It was so disgusting. If this man touched her face, wouldn’t she lose her innocence?
His father also asked him to marry her in the future, and he was so resistant.

But to be with the woman he liked, he had no choice but to endure it.

His father said that as long as Xiao Baili could marry him, he would let him redeem the woman he liked from the building and take her as a concubine.

But before he could think about it any further, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

The seemingly weak woman suddenly pulled out a thin whip from her waist and whipped the fat and big-eared, wretched man.

The man screamed.

Xiao Baili whipped and snorted coldly: “You want to play, right? I’ll play with you now.”

The fat-headed and big-eared man dodged and shouted to the two people behind him: “What are you still standing there for? Go and deal with this bitch.”

The two people were also confused just now, but they reacted after being shouted at.

Immediately rushed towards Xiao Baili, trying to tie her hands one by one.

Xiao Baili dodged one of them very flexibly and then whipped the other one.

She also turned around and used the whip to wrap around the fat-headed and big-eared man’s calf, and pulled it towards her.

The man fell to the ground and was whipped several more times.

At the same time, her whip seemed to be alive and whipped the two people who surrounded her.

The two people were also whipped and screamed, and kept dodging.

Zheng Tongfeng looked at him in disbelief: “……”

Where is the weak woman as promised?

How did she become such a capable tigress?
