Happy Little Scholar

"Never mind!"

The big man was obviously not very good at memorizing. He scratched his head hard but couldn't remember the short four sentences. He shook his head angrily and looked at the woman in tight clothes and said, "As long as you hand over ten taels of silver, I won't make things difficult for you."

"Is this your first time as a bandit?" The young woman glanced at the big man and asked lightly.

"Yes." The big man scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Why do you do this?"

"Buy medicine for my brother's illness."

"Just you?"

"Just me..."

The big man answered a few words and suddenly realized that something was wrong. It took him a while to realize that he was here to rob, not to be questioned. He said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense and take out the silver quickly, otherwise, otherwise------"

He sat down on the tree trunk blocking the road and said, "Otherwise, don't even think about passing through here today!"

Swish!

The big man suddenly felt a cold light in front of his eyes, and the next moment, the tree trunk under him broke into two halves, causing him to stagger and sit directly on the ground.

When he reacted, a long sword was already on his neck. The woman looked down at him and said, "You can't even speak Mandarin well, how can you be a bandit!"

The big man looked aggrieved. This was his first time in the industry, and it was his first business. He could recite two sentences, which was already very good...

"When you memorize it, you can talk properly." The woman said coldly.

"This mountain is mine, this tree, this tree is mine..."

"This tree is planted by me. If you want to live here, stay, stay..."

"This mountain is mine, this tree is planted by me. If you want to... If you want to, you can leave. I don't want the silver, is it okay?"

The big man looked aggrieved, and tears were about to flow down.

Xiao Huan lifted the curtain and looked at the big man squatting on the ground with his head in his hands. She covered her mouth and laughed, "Son-in-law, this bandit is so stupid!"

Li Yi agreed with this. The bandit in front of him looked like a latecomer. Not only did he not receive an orthodox education, he had not read "Self-cultivation of a Bandit", "Basic Etiquette for Highway Robbery" and "How to Speak Fluent Mandarin". It seemed that he even had some problems with his brain.

However, Miss Liu Er asked him to squat there with his head in his hands to recite books, which was really a bit bullying.

But it was normal to think about it. She could be vague about other things, but she had zero tolerance for this kind of fake bandit who tried to get away with it.

When the man was finally able to recite the most basic Mandarin, he finally looked a little like a bandit. Miss Liu Er asked him to move the tree trunk on the road and the carriage started again.

Through the window at the back, Li Yi saw that the man was still following closely behind.

"I've already given you the silver, why don't you leave?" Li Yi opened the window a crack and said.

The big man chased the carriage and shouted: "You are going to Qing'an Prefecture, right? I will escort you there for free. I will pay you back the money you gave me when I have money!"

Li Yi was really amused by this guy. How could a bandit want to return the silver after taking it?

"This is the silver you robbed with your own ability, why do you want to return it?"

The big man was obviously confused by Li Yi's words again. After thinking for a long time, he touched the back of his head and said: "It's not with my own ability. I can't beat you. You are good people. I will escort you to Qing'an Prefecture!"

"You said you can't beat us, why do you need to escort us?"

Li Yi found that this big man was a bit stubborn. He always felt something was wrong when such a person followed the carriage.

"I'm going to Qing'an Prefecture even if I don't send you off." The big man smiled and said, "Because my family is from Qing'an Prefecture..."

In today's society, even such a simple and honest big man knows the routine. It's really the decline of the world and the people's hearts are not as good as before. Li Yi lowered the car window. He gave up naturally when he was tired of following for a while and continued to tell Xiaohuan the story of the legendary sword fairy.

Occasionally, he would look out the window. When the official road became flatter and the carriage was not so bumpy, it meant that they had entered the territory of Qing'an Prefecture.

He didn't expect that it would take them two whole months to get from the capital to Qing'an Prefecture.

They traveled through countless states and prefectures along the way, and thoroughly experienced the feeling of a family trip.

In addition to the carriage, there is no more convenient means of transportation. Because they are going to play, they naturally rule out the possibility of taking a boat. They didn't just go straight down the waterway, but stopped and walked all the way, almost seeing all the scenery along the way.

Of course, he had encountered a lot of troubles in the past two months while traveling alone with three first-class beauties.

Without going there personally, he had no idea how chaotic other remote places would be except Qing'an Prefecture and Kyoto. In the past two months, they had encountered bandits and horse thieves no less than ten times. Of course, the number of these bandits was not too large, and the largest number was only dozens of people. Ruyi didn't even need to take action. Ruyi could kill them all with one sword.

Even Xiaohuan, who was a little scared at first, could face dozens of robbers with a smile after experiencing several robberies, and discuss with Li Yi what to eat for supper in the evening.

This is also the reason why Li Yi did not travel with a guard. With such a wife and sister-in-law, the world is so big, where can't he go?

Apart from that, the biggest commotion was probably when passing through a certain state. The prince of the governor's family molested the girls in the street, and made rude remarks to Miss Liu Er. She killed her descendants with a sword, and four of them were killed by nearly a hundred people. That time the sergeants surrounded him.

That time, I didn't bother Miss Liu Er to take action. The official matter could be settled with just a sign. In the end, the governor apologized and gave generous gifts, which made Li Yi feel that the old emperor was actually quite generous. With one card in hand, I have had a pretty good experience with the world.

As the saying goes, you can't reach Wangshan until you die. This sentence is absolutely true. However, they couldn't reach a short distance on the map. In the end, they could only speed up the pace and finally officially entered Qing'an today. On the government’s land.

When I got back, I suggested to the old emperor that the guy who drew this map should be hung up and beaten. The scale was seriously out of balance. If you relied on such a map to fight a war, you wouldn't need to be brave enough to kill yourself.

"My benefactor, you must have traveled a long way, right?" The big man sat cross-legged outside the carriage and asked Li Yidao with a naive smile.

Seeing this guy running after the carriage for an hour, but still not blushing or out of breath, Li Yi admired this guy's psychological quality very much, nodded and said, "He's from Kyoto."

"Kyoto! It's so far away! I heard that the emperor lives in Kyoto, and the houses in the palace are all built of gold!" The big man said with a surprised look on his face: "I have never been to Kyoto, my elder brother told me my!"

Li Yi put Miss Liu Er in and came out to get some air. After hearing what the big man said, he realized that the old emperor did not have that luxury.

Along the way, I saw many people rushing in the same direction on the official road, and asked with some confusion: "Is there anything happening ahead?"

The big man chuckled and said, "My benefactor, I don't know. These people are all going to Chenjiagou, where a new hook-and-rail building has been built. No, it seems to be called a theater, but it all means the same thing. , there are great shows to watch inside, you can go in with two coins, but you can only stand and watch with two coins, so I just went in and watched it once--Oh my god, that female ghost is so scary!"

Speaking of the theater, the big man seemed to have opened up a chat box and started talking to Li Yi non-stop: "Speaking of this theater, it is incredible. It has been opened all over Qing'an Mansion. The plays in it are so wonderful. Female Ghosts, White Snakes, these are all things I have never seen before. Some theaters have arenas set up for martial arts masters to compete in, and some rankings of martial arts masters are made. Watching them fight is even more exciting than a big show, because of the people surrounding it. There are too many to squeeze in..."

The big man talked endlessly and tirelessly, but he didn't see his benefactor. When he listened to him talking about these things, he always had a faint smile on his face.

Before leaving, he completely handed over the affairs of the theater to Old Man Sun and Wan Ruoqing. At that time, he told them not to expand in a hurry, but to wait until everything was stable before developing slowly. Unexpectedly, it was over. In just two months, the theater in their hands has grown to such a scale.
