1309, rolling red dust (2) three in one(2/4)

She turned her face and looked at Fourth Master, who was stunned as he stared in the direction where Qiu Ye disappeared.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

Fourth Master turned to look at her: "Didn't you see?"

What did you see?

"Don't scare me!" Lin Yutong grabbed the fourth master's hand. The fourth master smiled: "It turns out that black and white are not wearing high hats and sticking out long tongues."

ah?

What's the meaning?

"Qiuye was taken away by Black and White?" No! This is not the point. The point is: "Did you see it?"

There was a bit of pride on the fourth master's face: "The two of them surrendered to me, which shows that for the emperor of the world... what I did is still qualified."

Of course you are qualified to be an emperor. Who is the fourth master, right?

Now is not the time to talk about this. What should be focused on is: you can see some things, but I can't. This is the point, okay?

In fact, it doesn't matter what Qiuye said today. What's important is that after this trial, he knows what abilities he and Fourth Master have, and what the world is like.

Since there are indeed demons, ghosts, gods, and immortals, then the way of this world is nothing more than that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be punished with evil.

As long as you don't be a bad person and appear and go wherever you like, it has nothing to do with you.

Thinking of this, the fear and uneasiness they felt when they first arrived disappeared, and their hearts settled down. The two of them went around to the rockery, and sure enough, they found the remains of some bones in the cave of the rockery, which should be Qiuye's.

Lin Yutong dug out a box, packed it up, and took it out. He was buried in a place not far from the palace, and the Fourth Master also said that the feng shui was pretty good. He put three sticks of incense on it and sent away this unscrupulous servant who could not be said to be a loyal servant.

autumn leaves.

However, if she hadn't struggled out to ask about their lady, she wouldn't have been discovered by Black and White.

Burying a person and letting her rest in peace can be regarded as settling a cause and effect.

Thinking of this, Lin Yutong felt that her heart suddenly felt lighter. It was like the burden she was carrying was lighter. If she followed the rules of this world, it seemed that the original owner not only gave her his body, but also gave her the cause and effect.

and gave it to her.

After burying the person, I took a detour a little further along the original route. I took a new path and saw an abandoned house not far away. It was definitely not the same as Prince Xiu's Mansion. Follow this road and wait.

When we arrived at the gate, we saw the plaque of Prince Qiu's Mansion that was about to fall off.

Prince Qiu’s Mansion?

What kind of mansion is this?

Don't go over the historical knowledge in your head now. Wherever monsters and ghosts appear, history has been tampered with and turned in unknown directions.

But in the past few days, the two of them roughly knew that this was a dynasty with the country name of "Song". The prince on the dragon throne was indeed surnamed Zhao. As for the other things, the two of them didn't know.

What they had just encountered had long been forgotten by the two of them, and they were discussing along the way how to proceed from now on.

They didn't know that after they left, a snake head was erected on the wall of Prince Qiu's Mansion. The snake's head was green and green. It looked at the direction the two people left with its eyes, and then spit out its core, as if it was relieved.

Same. Seeing that the two people had no intention of coming back, it retracted its head and transformed into a girl in green clothes. She looked frightened and patted her chest: "Scared me to death!

Scared me."

Long is so powerful that these two people cannot be messed with.

It seems that it is better not to go to the city to play and stay here. It seems a bit dangerous outside.

These fourth masters and Lin Yutong were completely unaware of this. After arriving home, they were still talking about their plans.

When you come to this land, what do you do for a living? First buy some land and rent it out, so that people can see that you are a man with a family and business, so you won’t attract too much attention. As for the future, the fourth master said: "I will go out to find out tomorrow.

Academy..."

hehe!

Do you want to take the imperial examination?

"Can you kneel down in front of the dragon chair?" Lin Yutong asked him.

The fourth master nodded at her: "Back then, I went to the Ming Tombs to worship and sweep. Why can't I kneel down?"

Too!

It is nothing new for later dynasties to pay homage to the imperial tombs of former dynasties.

OK! As long as you have no mental barriers, it’s really no problem.

Of course, Fourth Master is not just an official for the sake of being an official, "...Since those things have a natural respect for the official body, then this layer of identity is a cover... If they are just ordinary people, those things will see us

We all have to avoid taboos, doesn’t this tell the world openly that there is something fishy between us?”

You are right to think so!

Things had to be dealt with one by one, so I asked the charlatan from before and asked him to find out if there was any land for sale nearby. It didn't matter whether it was fifty acres or one hundred acres.

It is not easy to buy paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River. I had to piece together several households to get 48 acres, which was okay. I rented three households separately, and the rent was only 30%, which was extremely cheap. It took me three days to get it done.

It's done.

On the fourth day, the fourth master found the nearest academy to his home and went to study.

The academy is not big. It is a private school run by an old master at home. The third courtyard of the private residence has two side courtyards set aside as school buildings. The fourth master is not really looking for that kind of famous teacher, but he is just looking for a place for himself where he can learn knowledge.

It’s just that when the ability to hyphenate words is used, it doesn’t feel abrupt.

There is only one reason for choosing this place, and that is proximity. It is in the alley in front, and there is only a distance of fifty or sixty meters between the back door of this house and the yard where I live now.

The key is that repairing is not expensive, only ten taels of silver a year.

So, the fourth master went to school. He had to go at almost dawn every morning, and then come back when it was dark at night. In the middle of the day, he had to make a special trip to deliver food. If you were far away, you could also bring dry food.

Then let's deliver food. Lin Yutong has nothing to do now. She had discussed with Fourth Master before, saying that if she had the opportunity to get some Taoist or Buddhist scriptures and exercises in the future, it would be fine. People can't be so idle.

The fourth master said to her, "What are you dreaming about? The Dharma should not be taught lightly. I didn't understand what it meant before, but now I should understand it more or less. If you are not one of his disciples and want to learn other people's ways, just wait."

Even though she was hit, the thoughts in her heart did not go away.

Today I made a bamboo tube rice stew for Fourth Master, which is made of bacon and bamboo shoots. It is simple, delicious, and easy to keep warm. I soaked it in a pot of boiling water all the way, and when I got there, it was still hot to the touch.

Carrying the meal, I arrived at the door of the master's house, but unexpectedly met Mrs. Xu waiting outside.

Mrs. Xu greeted Lin Yutong as soon as she saw her: "Your husband-in-law has also entered school? Yesterday, my brother came back and said that there was a new classmate named Jin, so I guessed it was you. What is Mrs. Jin doing at home?"

I don’t see you coming out to visit me.”

"Don't miss me, Madam. Madam, you've offended me." This 'Madam' is a polite title, "My maiden name is Lin, and I am the third in line in my family."

"Okay, I'll call you Lin's sister." She said, pointing inward, "I'm afraid it's almost time for school to end."

While they were talking, the door opened. The person delivering the food could not go in. The people inside had to come out to get it. Lin Yutong saw that some of the people coming out were servants or bookboys. When the Fourth Master came out, she said, "No, I'll go."

Go to Yaxing and find two messengers."

That's okay. There has to be an errand boy going back and forth.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard a clear female voice shouting: "Hanwen, here! Why are you so slow?"

Chinese?

Why is this name so familiar?

Lin Yutong and Fourth Master have both met Mrs. Xu, recognized her voice, and connected her last name with her Chinese name - Xu Hanwen!

Xu Hanwen?!

Lin Yutong's eyes widened, and Fourth Master also looked over: "His name is Xu Xuan..." But he didn't know his Chinese characters, otherwise, wouldn't he have thought of this earlier?

Okay! With Xu Hanwen, and thinking about the Prince Qiu’s Mansion I saw before, it seems...probably...that’s what I thought.

Xu Xuan later became a doctor, and the doctor was also called sir. In some places, he was also called Xian'er, which has the same pronunciation as "Xian".

This Xu Xuan is Xu Xian.

Xu Xuan is a name and a character in Chinese. Xu Xian (Xu Xianer) actually means the same thing as Doctor Xu, which is an official title.

Now, Lin Yutong understands it this way.

Anyway, no matter what his name is, he is the one who is lucky or unlucky and is repaid by the goblin.

Lin Yutong couldn't help but look at him curiously. Not to mention, he was quite decent in appearance. He was gentle, elegant and handsome.

Today's aesthetics naturally favors weak scholars. The imperial court emphasizes literature and restrains martial arts, and this is the situation in the world.

Being looked at by Lin Yutong, Xu Xuan stood sideways and hid away from his sister, even her ears turned red. Mrs. Xu turned her face and saw Lin Yutong's smiling eyes, and patted her

Her brother complained in a low voice: "Why are you so worthless? Look at why you are blushing." Then he pulled him over and said, "This is the young lady from Mr. Jin's family. You and Mr. Jin are classmates, so you are not polite."

Xu Xuan lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Lin Yutong. He just bowed and said, "I've met my sister-in-law and I'm going to give her a gift."

"Ms. Xu is so polite." She returned the courtesy and talked to Mrs. Xu.

She handed the rice to Fourth Master and asked him to come in. She then carried the jar and talked to Mrs. Xu before walking back.

The academy is actually closer to Li's house, the second one on the street.

Mrs. Xu warmly invited Lin Yutong to her home. She didn't know anyone else, so she just went in.
