Strange World Survival Manual

Chapter 316 Zhang Yuan’s Visit

At noon, the sun shines.

"At the beginning of human beings, their natures are good, their natures are similar, but their habits are far apart..."

In the Li Mansion, the sound of reading echoed with the voices of children. The sound was so emotional that passers-by nearby could not help but stop and listen.

At this time, a scholar in white came from a distance pulling a horse. Hearing the sound, he stopped and listened.

The more he listened, the more surprised he looked on his face.

After everyone heard the sound of reading from beginning to end, everyone was ready to disperse.

"Brother, may I ask if this Li Mansion is the residence of Mr. Li Si?" The scholar in white grabbed a middle-aged man who was about to leave and asked.

Upon hearing the inquiry, the middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, this is Mr. Li's mansion. What do you want from him?"

"Oh, I am his good friend and came to visit him." Zhang Yuan said with a gentle smile.

When the middle-aged man heard this, there was a look of surprise on his face. Then he seemed to have thought of something, shook his head and sighed: "Then you have been trying to comfort him recently. He failed the provincial examination this year and is in a low mood. He has not been out for several days. We are all afraid that he will become depressed and ill."

"This..." Zhang Yuan was a little confused when he heard the middle-aged man's words. He knew his friend's character well and would not give up on him just because he failed the provincial examination.

However, it was not easy to express his doubts at this time, and then he nodded to the middle-aged man: "Okay, then I will persuade him later. Thank you for reminding him."

"No, no, I just think Mr. Li is a good man and doesn't deserve this kind of punishment." The middle-aged man waved his hand, sighed, and walked away.

Seeing the back of the middle-aged man walking away, Zhang Yuan felt some different emotions in his heart. He never thought that his good friend had such a good reputation in this county. Even if he randomly picked up someone, he would always be in his heart. His safety.

"But...this is you." He whispered to himself, and then smiled.

With the character of his good friend, it is not surprising that he has gained such a reputation.

In fact, compared to Li Si's reputation in the city, Zhang Yuan was even more surprised by the reciting sound he heard just now. He had never heard the reciting sound just now.

However, although he had never heard it before, he still discovered that although the recitation sounds simple, the underlying truth is extremely profound and makes people reflect on their hearts.

"Maybe it's a lie that you don't go out, but it's true that you are studying." Zhang Yuan smiled softly, tied his horse to a tree nearby, then walked to the front door of Li Mansion and knocked on the door.

After knocking on the door for just a moment, a voice came from inside: "Who is it?"

"I'm Li Si's friend, and I came here from afar to visit." Zhang Yuan shouted toward the door.

I heard shouts inside, and there were footsteps approaching from far away. After a while, the footsteps came to the door, and the door was opened.

"Who are you?" A middle-aged man popped his head out and looked at the scholar in white in confusion.

"My name is Zhang Yuan. I am a good friend Li Si made in Zetian Mansion. I happened to be passing through here when I went to the capital to take the exam, so I came to visit." Zhang Yuan cupped his hand and said with a smile.

Hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Luo Ye's eyes showed a look of shock. The man in front of him turned out to be a senior official.

He knew that those who were going to Beijing to take the exam were all candidates, not ordinary people.

"I'm going to inform my family... my young master, please wait for a moment." Luo Ye's face showed an apology. It's really not good to have a scholar waiting at the door like this.

But he was also afraid that this person was talking nonsense, so he treated him with caution.

Hearing Luo Ye's words, Zhang Yuan smiled softly, shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, Li Si and I are close friends, you can just report it."

Seeing Zhang Yuan's relaxed expression, Luo Ye breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded and closed the door.

Then he hurried towards the back room.

After passing through several corridors, he arrived at Li Si's bedroom.

But at this time, he had already seen Li Si who was carving wood seriously in the small courtyard.

"Ms. Li, there is a man named Zhang Yuan coming to visit outside." Luo Ye said to Li Si.

Hearing Luo Ye's words, Li Si was slightly startled, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and stopped what he was doing.

He also did not expect that Zhang Yuan had not come to Beijing to take the exam at this time, and even came to see him.

This surprised him a bit.

"Where is he now?" Li Si looked at Luo Ye and asked.

Seeing Li Si's reaction, Luo Ye understood that he knew that person.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel ashamed and said: "I was afraid that he was lying to me, so I asked him to wait outside the door."

"It's okay. You clean up the wood here and hide it well. I'll go get him in." Li Si nodded to Luo Ye and said with a smile.

He understood that Luo Ye was also afraid that someone would disturb his rest, so he was so careful.

With that said, he put down his things and walked towards the door.

Luo Ye saw pieces of wood in the courtyard, with a look of doubt in his eyes. He didn't understand the use of these things, and Mr. Li still treasured them so much.

But since it was Xianggong Li's order, he naturally had to take care of the wood.

Thinking of this, he began to pack up the wood.

On the other side, Li Si quickly walked to the door and opened it.

After the door opened, he saw a scholar in white clothes, looking at him with a smile.

It is undoubtedly Zhang Yuan.

"Brother Zhang, long time no see." Li Si smiled when he saw him and led him in.

He didn't expect Zhang Yuan to come here. He knew that the test would only be held in the past few months.

"Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a long time. I see that you seem to have changed a lot recently." Walking on the road, Zhang Yuan looked at Li Si with a look of surprise.

He found that although Li Si still had the same gentle temperament as before, there was a faint edge in his gentleness, like a sword that had just been unsheathed, making people feel some faint pressure in their hearts.

This made Zhang Yuan feel very strange. He had to know that his friend had just failed the ranking some time ago, but he was not lonely. On the contrary, he was even more talented than before.

This is very strange.

"Have you changed?" Li Si was a little confused, and then he understood something. Maybe he had really changed a lot, but he just didn't notice it.

"There are indeed some changes." Zhang Yuan nodded.

Li Si nodded and thought to himself. It seemed that he would still have to pay attention to this aspect in the future, otherwise he would be in trouble if someone noticed him in the future.

"By the way, Brother Li, I'm here because I want to ask you for help with something." It was at this time that Zhang Yuan spoke.
