Great Blue Night Watchman
Chapter 174 Meeting the Fifth Young Master of the Zhang Family on the Road
The refugees looked at the city gate, full of longing.
Inside is where the people of the capital live. The people of the capital, whether they are officials or civilians, businessmen or slaves, are beyond their imagination. It is not the same world as them.
They are just precarious wanderers. Today they are wanderers, but tomorrow they may be ghosts in a foreign land. No one cares about their life or death, no one!
Several young men on horseback rode away. The refugee woman quickly retreated, but then quietly looked at them from a distance. They hope to be favored by a certain young man and step into the other side of their dreams, but they are also worried that meeting someone unkind will bring them unbearable suffering.
The human tragedy of being spotted by a young man in the city, then being played with, and finally being sold to a brothel happens every day in the refugee circle. The fate of all women is a bet.
Although they knew that nine times out of ten they would lose, they still wanted to take the gamble because it was their only hope to transcend class...
Lin Su was wearing a blue robe and walked out of the city gate. Although he was also wearing a scholar's outfit, it was the most unassuming kind. Under normal circumstances, only the most down-to-earth scholars would choose such clothes. Lin Su Su's suit was deliberately chosen by Lu Yi for him. She said that the young master was in a special situation and it was better not to show off.
Lin Su also praised her for her thoughtfulness, but in the dark night, she secretly revealed Lu Yi's little plan to him. Lu Yi's original intention was: Our husband-in-law is really too attractive to women, and we can't dress him up any more. If you want to add color, wear the most earthy clothes. Although it cannot be guaranteed to be foolproof, you can always control the risk to a minimum.
Lin Su was speechless after hearing this explanation.
Putting on these shabby clothes, he left Qu Mansion.
Although the clothes were filthy, they still gave off a different flavor when worn on him.
Three miles out of the city, there was suddenly the sound of rolling carriages and the sound of whips coming from behind. Someone shouted at the top of their lungs: "Make way!"
Lin Su moved lightly, and when he reached the roadside, a carriage passed by him. There were refugees on both sides of the road ahead, and they were also giving in. A slave on the carriage shouted: "Make way, I want to die..."
Snapped! A riding whip hit a refugee on the face, and a bloodstain immediately appeared on the refugee's face. The carriage rolled away, leaving several exclamations behind.
Lin Su raised his eyes and stared at the carriage, with a strange expression in his eyes.
A voice penetrated into his ears: "It's the Zhang family's carriage. If nothing else, this is Zhang Tao, the fifth son of the Zhang family!"
Zhang Tao?
That day on the Western Mountain, Zhang Tao wanted to kill Lu Yi and Sister Chen?
Lin Su was greatly moved.
"Don't let me take action today!" An Ye said: "There are only six days left for the scientific examination. After the scientific examination, I promise you that I will put his head in front of Sister Chen and Lu Yi as soon as possible."
Zhang Tao has actually been put on the death list for messing with Sister Chen and Lu Yi.
But everyone has a consensus, that is, he cannot be touched before the scientific examination.
Why?
As long as Lin Su killed Zhang Tao, no matter what the circumstances, he committed the serious crime of killing the relatives of a court official, and they would have reason to take Lin Su down. At the very least, he would not be able to participate in the scientific examination.
Zhang Tao is just an ineffective prodigal. Even if he dies, his damage to Zhang Wenyuan will be limited. But if he, Lin Su, loses his scientific research path because of this prodigal, he will suffer a big loss.
Lin Su nodded: "You don't need to take action. Zhang Tao's life is already in my chess game. He will die before the scientific examination!"
"Before the scientific examination? Are you sure?" An Ye was so surprised.
"Don't worry, if I kill him, it won't affect my scientific examination."
Lin Su walked along, and suddenly, he stopped.
Because the carriage in front also stopped, a house slave stared at a refugee girl in front of him and smiled: "Little girl, didn't you sell your body to bury your father? My young master bought it!"
The girl's whole body trembled and she slowly raised her head. This was a beautiful girl with tears in her eyes, making her even more pitiful.
"Young master, can you give me three taels of silver? Let the Rong Nu family buy a thin-skinned coffin to bury my father?"
A voice came from the carriage: "Okay! Here are five taels of silver. Go wash yourself in the river over there and come up and sleep with me. These five taels of silver are yours!"
The woman was shocked: "Young master, the slave family... the slave family... can work as cattle and horses for the master, as slaves and maids, but... my father's body is still cold, how can he do such an inappropriate thing? Master, please respect yourself..."
Her face was red and white, and her body was trembling slightly, obviously unable to bear the humiliation.
This is official policy. There are countless refugees. Who can bear to be insulted on the spot? What's more, her father's body is still around, and she is really insulting her ancestors by doing this misbehavior.
The young master on the carriage said coldly: "Are you pretentious when you plan to sell her? Since the price has been set and I have given the money, the deal has been concluded. Someone will come and pull her into the river to wash her clean and bring her up to me!"
This makes sense. The refugees looked at each other in confusion. A few refugees wanted to come over, but they didn't dare to see the servants acting like wolves and tigers.
Several servants came forward, and the woman screamed...
At this moment, a figure in green clothes stepped over, raised his hand, and three servants flew up at the same time.
An old man driving the car had a cold look in his eyes, and his whole body suddenly felt as if he were a mountain.
He could see that the young scholar in front of him had extraordinary skills, and he must be at the highest level of martial arts.
Lin Sudao: "Sell yourself to bury your father, right? The plot in the play is quite interesting, I bought it!"
Zhang Tao in the carriage was furious: "Where did this poor scholar come from? How dare you come to interfere with my master's affairs..."
Lin Sudao: "This girl's price is three taels, which is just the base price. Naturally, the one with the highest price will get it! Come on, come and give it a try if you have the money!"
Ha ha! Zhang Tao looked up to the sky and laughed: "Are you from the countryside? Dare you compete with me for financial resources? Okay, ten taels!"
"One hundred taels!"
Zhang Tao's laughter stopped suddenly, and all the refugees in the audience were stunned.
One hundred taels? You are kidding?
Zhang Tao said coldly: "Two hundred taels!"
Lin Su smiled faintly: "One thousand taels!"
Everyone was turned to stone.
The old man on the carriage stood up slowly: "You have given the price, and you must have the corresponding silver note with you. Please take it out and take a look at the one thousand taels of silver note! Otherwise..."
"Otherwise, what?" Lin Su looked at him coldly.
"Otherwise, you are causing trouble with malicious intent and you need to bear the consequences."
Lin Su raised his hand!
A stack of banknotes appeared in the palm of my hand!
The first one, Da Cang Qian Yuan Bank, pay immediately upon seeing the ticket: one thousand taels!
The old man's expression suddenly changed.
Really?
"What the old man said makes sense! When you make a price, you must have a corresponding banknote." Lin Su said: "In broad daylight, the sky is clear, and the rules apply to both parties. From now on, every time you make a price, please Show me the silver note! I've already bid a thousand taels, do you want to increase the price?"
Zhang Tao just came out to play, and he really didn't have thousands of taels of silver in his pocket. For a prodigal like him, his family also controlled his finances. Every pocket penny was given to him by his mother, who knew how much money he had. How could you give him a thousand taels if you spent all the money?
He gritted his teeth: "Do you know who I am? Dare you..."
Lin Su interrupted directly: "Zhang Wenyuan's fifth son, Zhang Tao, right? Either I look down on you, let alone you, even if your father Zhang Wenyuan is here today, I will use my banknotes to make him doubt his life!"
Zhang Tao's face was livid with anger: "Who are you?"
"Who am I? Haha! Ask your Zhang Xiu and Zhang Haoyue, who ruined their literary world? Ask your ancestors eight generations ago, who told your Zhang family to cut off their roots in Haining? Ask your Zhang Hong, who ruined his science? Road test? Ask your father, Zhang Wenyuan, who nailed him to the pillar of shame with the phrase 'Luocheng wag's tail'!"
Zhang Tao, the old man, and the servants next to the carriage all changed their expressions.
"Lin Su!"
"Exactly!" Lin Su said calmly: "Hasn't your family always wanted to cause trouble for me? Go back and tell Zhang Wenyuan that the decisive battle has begun. From now on, it is time to fight back. You, the Zhang family, should be careful! "
The old man's sharp eyes were firmly fixed on Lin Su.
Lin Su also stared at him: "There are people who are dogs everywhere, but to be a dog, you must have the consciousness to be a dog! Get out!"
All the servants were angry at the same time.
But the old man's chest rose and fell, and he slowly turned his horse's head and headed back.
Zhang Tao was furious, and the old man's voice came into his ears. Zhang Tao's expression changed. What the old man told him was: If an expert is present, at least he will be in the Sky Realm!
The old man had just stepped into the realm of spying. He felt the suppression from the realm, which made his whole body feel like falling into an ice cellar. How could he dare to move again? This was in the suburbs. If he was angered, this group of people would really Leaving your life in the wild.
Must return immediately.
The Zhang family left, and the woman was in shock. She was the goods today. From the moment she made the bid, she had lost her choice. Will the young man in front of her also give her the same price as the villain? A new round of humiliation?
Lin Su raised his hand: "This is ten taels of silver. You can bury your father well. I just saved you from the siege. Don't worry about it."
Twelve taels of silver were handed into the woman's hand.
The woman's body trembled slightly.
"Don't worry, this is just for you. I don't need anything in return from you. I'm leaving. Goodbye!" Lin Su strode away.
"Sir..." The woman knelt down.
Lin Su has disappeared.
Lin Su left the official road and set foot on the Western Mountain.
Compared with a few days ago, Xishan has changed beyond recognition. A few days ago, the peach blossoms were blooming all over the mountain, but now, all the prosperity is gone and only empty branches are left. There are still a few bright red petals on the rocks that have been trampled into mud, that's all.
Several students were on the hillside in front, shaking their heads and reciting poems, and a crowd of people nearby cheered. After the Xishan Poetry Meeting, Xishan gradually became a holy place in the minds of students, and was endowed with unique cultural attributes. Lin Su’s handed down poems, Lingyin Temple was engraved on the outer wall of the temple. Along with this poem, there were also poems by Lu Youwei, Bi Xuanji and Xie Xiaoyan. Of course, the one most favored by women was the poem "The Burial of Flowers". It is said that jade Princess Feng stayed in her villa in Xishan throughout the rainy season, and even cried while watching the song of the funeral flowers...
The poetry wall of Lingyin Temple has become a unique landscape of Lingyin Temple, attracting a large number of literati. The entire Xishan Mountain has also attracted countless literati. They all hope that their poems about traveling to the Xishan Mountain can be recognized by Lingyin Temple. wall.
A few poems can make a mountain, which is a unique phenomenon of this era.
Lin Su strolled up the mountain and passed through the crowd of tourists. No one recognized him as the literary legend who made this humble Western Mountain famous throughout the world.
The big peach tree is still there, but there are no peach blossoms. Without peach blossoms, there are still literati here playing "flowers fall and flow". If there are no flowers, then come to the leaves! Whoever's leaves fall in front of the white jade stand will compose a poem.
Lin Su glanced around and saw that the person sitting on the white jade platform actually had an acquaintance. He was Du Zhou, who had bet against him during the Huichang Examination. Du Zhou participated in the Huichang Examination as Jieyuan of Dingyuan Prefecture. Before taking the test, he was full of confidence, with an expression like "Everyone else is making a wedding dress for me." However, he did not expect that the test would be a duel between experts. Not many people were weak, and his score in the test only ranked second. Thirty-three people, not to mention being easily stepped on by Lin Su, even Lin Jialiang stepped on his head.
From that moment on, Du Zhou's mentality became unbalanced.
When fighting for Wenshan, he originally had a chance to harvest the blue Wenshan, but because he was unwilling to be stepped down by both Lin brothers, he overestimated his ability and tried to attack the purple Wenshan. However, he failed and was knocked down from the sky, and he took an orange garbage Wenshan—— He and Zhao Ji became brothers in need.
Literary education pays attention to the foundation. Literary root, literary world, literary mountain and literary heart are all the foundation.
If there is a shortcoming anywhere, it will restrict the road ahead.
For example, if you go to Orange Wenshan, you will be admitted to Jinshi at most and gain the worst literary skills. You will never be able to reach the highest level of literary skills throughout your life. If you cannot reach the highest level of literary skills, you will have no chance of succeeding in the literary world. .
Du Zhou and Zhao Ji, the two proud men of heaven, had received the Orange Wenshan Mountain, and they gave up a little on themselves. They didn't have much hope in the undergraduate examination, so they simply let it go and slept in flowers and willows everywhere, reciting poems and writing poems, which were mediocre and elegant. There is a tendency to move forward towards being a playboy.
It is common in any world for a genius to make one wrong move and slide into mediocrity.
Lin Su was too lazy to listen to these people reciting poems and went directly around the big peach tree to Lingyin Temple.
Outside Lingyin Temple, there is a huge screen wall. The most prominent position on it is engraved with Lin Su's famous poem: The beauty of April in the world is gone, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are beginning to bloom...
The handwriting on it is beautiful, and if nothing else, it must have been written by a woman.
Sure enough, he soon got the answer. These poems were all left by the Banshan layman, and the Banshan layman was Bi Xuanji!
In front of the poetry wall, there was a large flow of people. Lin Su moved lightly and came to a side door. Above the side door, there was a piece of green bamboo with three gentle inscriptions carved on it: Half-mountain Residence.
Lin Su gently knocked on the door of the house, and the door creaked open. A bald little monk, about seven or eight years old, stood by the door, looking at Lin Su with two big dark eyes.
Lin Su's heart moved. That day, Lu Yi and Sister Chen were in danger, and a young monk saved them. Lin Su went up the mountain today and brought a large box of snacks. She planned to come to thank the young monk. Did she meet him now?
As soon as he used his Thousand Degree Eyes, he felt something abnormal.
The little monk in front of me has the faint light of Buddha and boundless spiritual wisdom. It must be him!
