Chapter 2 Trojan Horse
Mo He looked at the Taoist priest riding a horse and his eyes flashed slightly. This was the first person he had seen in Taoist robe after coming to this world, and he was also a person riding a horse.
In ancient China before traveling through time, most of the families who could afford horses were princes and nobles, and at least they had to have a wealthy family. Mo He felt that the world he was in now should not be in much different situations. At least, there was no horse in the Xiahegou Village where he was now.
The Taoist priest in front of him was dressed in luxurious clothes and was riding a horse. He looked like a fairy-like figure and his appearance was quite consistent with the image of a master.
Mo He, who came through time, didn't believe in the theory of ghosts and gods. Even if there was a case of rebirth on time, Mo He felt that he could explain it in a scientific way, but he was not clear about the theories involved.
However, although he does not believe in the sayings of ghosts and gods, Mo He still has a good impression of the ancient Taoist priests. In ancient times, people who practice Taoism pursued becoming immortals, so they often took medicine for health care. Many Taoist priests understood the way of health care and medical skills, and at least they could understand the words and words. Mo He was worried about where to study, but the one in front of him might be a way.
Seeing strangers coming to the village, a large group of children surrounded by Mo He all turned their curious eyes to the Taoist priest. Especially when they looked at the horses riding by the Taoist priest, they felt very novel and a little scared.
Soon, the Taoist priest at the entrance of the village turned over and got off the horse. He was greeted by the village chief Zhang Yuanwang and others, and walked into the village. When passing by a group of children, the children automatically gave in and looked at the Taoist priest and the horse following him.
Mo He and the group of children stood aside. When the Taoist priest passed by him, he suddenly felt an inexplicable tension and felt a little depressed in his heart.
This Taoist priest seemed to have a momentum on his body, just like those who had been in high positions for a long time in his previous life, they would naturally develop a sense of intimidation on their bodies, but in comparison, the oppression on the Taoist priest in front of him was the strongest among all those Mo He had ever contacted.
When the village chief led a few people to walk by Mo He and others, the Taoist priest glanced at Mo He and other children. When his gaze passed Mo He's face, his gaze suddenly paused slightly, stared at Mo He for a second, then withdrew his gaze and continued to turn his head and walk forward.
But in just one second, Mo He felt a chill on his body, as if in a moment, a cold wind blew by.
Next, when the horse riding the Taoist priest passed by Mo He, Mo He's eyes fell on the horse, and an incredible look immediately appeared on his face.
"This, this is not a real horse!" The slightly stiff pace and the circles of wood grain all told Mo He that the horse in front of him was not a real horse, but a Trojan horse similar to a real horse.
A Trojan horse that can walk, and it is not slow and can be used for people to ride. Such things instantly made Mo He's understanding of the world greatly improve.
Mo He stared at the Trojan horse slowly moving away. He was sure that he had read it correctly, that was a Trojan horse, a Trojan horse that could walk by himself.
And through this wooden horse, thinking of the Taoist priest riding the wooden horse, Mo He felt an impulse to understand the world, and a sense of heat arose in his heart. This world similar to the ancient times in his previous life was far from as simple as he imagined.
He was pretending to be in his mind, which led to Mo He being absent-minded. Fortunately, he was surrounded by a group of children playing around, and everyone didn't pay much attention to Mo He's strangeness.
After a long time, although Mo He's heart was still hot, he had completely calmed down.
"Is that the legendary spell, the mechanism, or some other means to make the wooden horse move?" After completely calming down, Mo He began to think about various possibilities in his mind.
In Mo He's heart, he hoped that this was the legendary spell or other supernatural power, because if this was the case, it would mean that the world would be extremely exciting.
Looking back on his previous life, when he was lying on the hospital bed at the last moment of his life, facing the helplessness of death approaching little by little, Mo He didn't want to experience that feeling at all.
In the afternoon, Mo He returned home and walked into the yard. When he saw a tall man in linen clothes with patches sitting in the yard, his bearded face made him look not fierce, but instead gave people a feeling of honesty. This is his father Mo Dashan in this life.
His mother also sat next to her father, and while it was still dark, she was holding needles and thread in her hand and doing some sewing and repair work.
"...The Taoist priest lives in the village chief's house tonight. He has already visited the third uncle's house and has confirmed that he has died of his life and has passed 80 years old. It seems that there is hope."
When Mo He came in, he was hearing his father talking to his mother, but when the two saw Mo He coming in, they said this.
"So the Third Master passed away, no wonder!" Although Mo He only heard this sentence when he came in, he also obtained some information.
The third master is the oldest elder in the Mo family in Xiahegou Village. It is said that he is in his seventies or eighties. In an environment like Xiahegou Village, every adult man faces hard work. An ordinary person can live to the age of seventies or eighties, which is really a long life.
"The third master died and asked a Taoist priest to do a ritual. It is reasonable to ask him to do a ritual. But just now, my father said there was hope, but I don't know what was hopeful?" Mo He thought in his heart, and then came to Mo Dashan's side, thinking in his heart and speaking.
"Dad, today I saw an old man I didn't know, holding a big bull without horns. It was so scary!" When he said this, Mo He felt a little disgusted by himself, but if he wanted to get some news from Mo Dashan, he could only be like this. Who made him now an identity of a five-year-old child?
When Mo Dashan heard his son's childish words, he laughed for a moment, then stroked Mo He's head with his rough big hands, and then said with a smile.
"Haha, silly son, that one is not a cow, that one is called a horse, and it runs faster than a cow!"
However, when this sentence was said, Mo Dashan suddenly seemed to have thought of something. The smile on his face was restrained, and then he looked at the direction of the village chief's house. The topic suddenly changed and said, "But horses are much more fierce than cows. If a person approaches a horse, the horse will kick you and eats children in a special way. Don't get close to you!"
When Mo He heard this, he felt a little chilling in his heart. This was obviously a word to scare the child, but who made him a child now?
"Then, does that old man I don't know eat children, too?" Mo He looked down on himself, but he still pretended to be tender and continued to ask Mo Dashan.
When he heard his son's words, Mo Dashan shook his head this time, and said to Mo He with a serious expression: "That Taoist priest is a noble man. You must not say that outside. When you see that Taoist priest, you must avoid it from a distance and not get close to the Taoist priest."
"What is Taoist priest? Why can't you get close to him?" Mo He had completely broken the can and continued to pretend to be young and asked Mo Dashan what he wanted to know.
Hearing his son's question, Mo Dashan slapped his forehead and continued to say to Mo He: "Master, it's the old man you don't know. Remember your father's words. Next time you see that old man, you must avoid it from a distance."
"But why, is that Taoist elder terrible?" Mo He continued to use his acting skills and wanted to learn more about his father's words.
However, Mo Dashan, who was honest and honest, scratched his head at this time. He didn't know how to continue explaining to his son, and immediately looked at his wife beside him.
Seeing this, Mo He's mother immediately raised her face and said to Mo He: "That Taoist grandfather doesn't like disobedient children. If you don't listen to your father, he will let the ghost come out to find you that night."
Mo He sighed in his heart. Looking at his parents' appearance, even if he continues to pretend to be young now, he probably won't be able to ask any news, so he pretended to be a little scared and ended his inquiry.
It soon became dark, and an oil lamp lit up at Mo He's home. The light was very dim and it went out soon. The whole family went to bed early.
Working from sunrise and resting from sunset, Mo He has completely adapted to this kind of life five years after he came to this world, but tonight, Mo He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
After he came to this world, although he was lucky enough to be reborn, he suddenly came to a strange environment, and experienced a death, and became a child, which made Mo He a little confused for a moment.
Of course it is impossible to make him willing to be ordinary, but if he wants to do something, his age is a little too young and his identity is too low, and he doesn't even have the opportunity to get an education in this world.
If we develop step by step, the group will probably have to wait until after they are ten years old, they will gradually become sensible in the eyes of the adults around them. They will have the opportunity to get in touch with the outside world, so that they can find the opportunity to learn the words of this world and truly understand the world.
Then you either become an official or do business, and finally make a name for yourself and slowly make a career in this world, at least you have to leave traces of your own experience.
Now, Mo He's thoughts have changed a little. He saw the tip of the truly magical iceberg of this world, which made his heart feel infinite yearning. He couldn't wait to understand this world, wondering if he can really practice, and whether there are really those magical magics.
