The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 471 Farewell
It was cold and windy, and it had been snowing for more than ten days, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the ground.

Snowflakes fell from the sky one after another, and the earth was already a vast expanse.

White jade-like mountains lie across the wilderness, and snow-covered forests stand on both sides of the wide avenue.

Yushan is winding and lying, its curve is like a white mang, gradually closing the sight, Yushu Qiongzhi is like a cage of white smoke, spreading all the way, directly connecting with Yushan in the distance.

Covered with ice and snow, the sky is vast and white, forming an endless stretch.

Beside the official road, a group of about [-] or [-] people in different clothes are hiding in the simple shacks, avoiding the increasing wind and snow.

Chen Sheng huddled in the corner of the shack, took a mouthful of cold dry food, and chewed with difficulty.

After chewing almost all the dry food in his mouth, he raised his head and took a sip of the warm water in the water glass.

The warm water brought some warmth to the finely crushed and cold dry food, which made Chen Sheng swallow it all.

The Meng School on Taiping Road is not open at this time. It will not officially start until the beginning of February this year, when the civil servants who recruited students from various places return with the children.

Originally, Chen Yu meant to let Chen Sheng stay in the school office in Li Hall with other students who were waiting to enroll.

But there was still about one month left. Chen Sheng asked Chen Yu to be a road worker to earn some money for his family.

Chen Yu finally agreed to Chen Sheng's request.

Schoolchildren like Chen Sheng, as long as they can be successfully promoted to county schools, will generally become civil servants in some key places, handling government and civil affairs.

Bearing some hardships and knowing the difficulties of life can motivate them to forge ahead.

Chen Yu is not a wealthy family, like most of the Yellow Turban Army, he used to be a member of the loess with his back to the sky.

In the seventh year of Guanghe, the Yellow Turban rose up, and the whole world responded, spreading far and wide.

The Taihang Mountains were also implicated, the various ministries of the Yellow Turbans were powerful, and the Han army was not to be outdone, and a war broke out between the two sides.

But when there is a big battle, there is no peace, and bandits are rampant in the Taihang Mountains.

Chen Yu and his younger brother Chen Wu joined Huanglong's army in this way. Later, Xu An led troops into Taihang Mountain and unified the central part of Taihang Mountain. They also took advantage of the opportunity to join Xu An's command.

Chen Wu entered the military camp through selection, while Chen Yu was smart, followed Fu Zhu to learn medical classics, and became a Fu Zhu.

Later, Xu An led the Yellow Turban Army to capture Shangdang County and build a Taoist hall, in which Chen Yu was nominated to study.

After he graduated, he was appointed as a civil servant in the eldest son city of Shangdang County, in charge of agricultural administration.

It is precisely because Chen Yu lived a difficult life, so he can understand why Chen Sheng wants to make money, and he can understand Chen Sheng's state of mind.

Chen Sheng drank all the warm water in the cup, and the coldness of the winter in Bingzhou was terrifying. The water in his cup was just scooped out of a clay pot before, but it turned into lukewarm water after a while. , if he waited a little longer, the water would be completely cold.

Chen Sheng looked at the water glass that had no water droplets, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.

The life in Bingzhou is very different from his life in his hometown. The difference is not in the local customs or food, but in some details.

In the villages, there are special toilets, and there are regulations that you must go to the toilet to go to the toilet, and those who violate it will be punished.

"In the toilet, there are a lot of people talking, it's not the same... The place where the words are filthy should be repaired frequently to make it clean."

There are also some small household matters, such as drinking water, laundry, etc. There are also some regulations. What to drink must be boiled water, and it is not allowed to drink water that has not been boiled. That kind of water is called raw water.

It is said that in the raw water, there is the breath of the plague god, which can cause diseases. Only after boiling can the breath of the plague god be completely eliminated.

This was said by the great virtuous teacher himself, so everyone dare not believe it, so as long as they have the conditions, they will drink the boiled cold water.

"what is that?"

Someone in the shack looked not far from the official road and asked questions, which immediately caused some commotion in the shack.

Everyone looked at Guan Dao one after another, looking for the man's question.

Chen Sheng also subconsciously glanced outside, but he was in the innermost position. Because of the noise and curiosity, many people stood up. Chen Sheng sat on the ground and couldn't see anything at all, but he was not that big. Curiosity has to find out.

Now is the break time at noon, he will take this opportunity to rest for a while, and he has to repair the road in the afternoon, which is a physical labor.

Usually there will be noise in the shack, but it will soon calm down due to the passage of time. If it is not stopped for a long time, the soldiers who maintain order will come to persuade them.

But this time, it was a bit of a surprise, the noise in the shack became more and more loud, and the soldiers did not come to persuade them.

Chen Sheng glanced at the entrance suspiciously, but he didn't see any unusual scenery, it was still a vast expanse of whiteness.

"clang----"

There was a crisp sound, and everyone stopped talking and whispering.

Chen Sheng looked at the entrance of the shack, and saw that the standing crowd slowly separated towards the two sides, and a person wearing an ivory robe and a yellow Taoist crown walked into the shack.

Chen Sheng recognized that it was the clothes of Yinglangwei. He had seen them in Zhangshui and Taihang Mountains.

Wearing ivory-white clothes, he looked like the captain of the Eagle Wolf Guard. He heard those ordinary Eagle Wolf Guard Tiqi respectfully address Baihu, and those Eagle Wolf Guards in black and blue clothes were particularly respectful.

When Chen Sheng was listening to the conversations of the uncles around him, he heard a rumor.

It is said that when Xu An, a great virtuous teacher, led the Yellow Turban Army into the Taihang Mountains, he lost his way. On the way, he met a goshawk that hovered over the Yellow Turban Army. Finally, he followed the goshawk and found the right way. .

But later, because there was no food in the mountains, the Yellow Turban Army fell into a predicament again, but a group of gray wolves suddenly appeared in the Taihang Mountains, as if they were sent by heaven to help the Yellow Turban Army. They caught prey to help the Yellow Turban Army satisfy their hunger and overcome difficulties. .

Later, after Xu An unified the Taihang Mountains, the eagle wolves in the Taihang Mountains also followed Xu An out of the mountain, and those eagle wolves were now the Eagle Wolf Guards.

The reason why their clothes are weird, embroidered with eagles and wolves, is entirely because they are not human beings, but ghosts.

But the Baihuguan in front of him feels very young, as if he is not much older than him.

The young Baihu officer of the Eagle Wolf Guard walked all the way to the center of the shack, the wolf's head outlined on his chest was terrifying, as if he wanted to choose someone and devour him.

Chen Sheng looked at the ferocious wolf head on the chest of the Eagle Wolf Guard Hundred Household Officer, and felt a little fear in his heart.

Moreover, Chen Sheng also felt an extremely dangerous feeling from the Hundred Household Officer, but after being glanced at by him, he couldn't help feeling chills in his heart.

It's like... It's like a ferocious gray wolf is eyeing...

The hundred household officer glanced at the hut, bowed his hands and gave a military salute, not in a questioning tone, but asked in a relatively calm tone: "The hundred household officer Zhang Ji of the Eagle Wolf Guard is ordered to take the school children to school."

"Dare to ask the schoolboy Chen Sheng, can you be here?"

"Chen Sheng?"

Naturally, there were people in the shack who knew Chen Sheng. Chen Feng and Chen Sheng were father and son working together as a road worker. Chen Feng was kind and friendly, while Chen Sheng was young but alert, so he was naturally likable.

"Chen Feng, it seems that they are looking for your child."

Everyone heard that although they didn't know what admission was, it seemed like a good thing.

The crowd naturally parted a path, and Zhang Ji saw Chen Sheng who was sitting on the ground along the way.

At this time, Chen Sheng was covered in dust, his face was dirty like a cat, and he was sitting in the corner of the shack. There was a middle-aged man with a similar face beside him, who was his father, Chen Feng.

Zhang Ji grinned, showing his white teeth, and laughed, and the aura that made Chen Sheng feel scared dissipated.

Chen Sheng didn't know that Zhang Ji was the one who specially came to pick him up to study in the Meng School in the eldest son city.

"Student Chen Sheng, see Baihu."

Chen Sheng stood up from the ground, imitating Chen Yu's previous posture and saluted Zhang Ji respectfully.

Zhang Ji's eyes brightened slightly. The schoolchildren he picked up along the way were basically timid. They didn't dare to speak when they met him. Every time he had to say it three or four times before picking up a child, this time Chen Sheng Zhang Ji's performance surprised Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji smiled and said: "Sure enough, he is not an ordinary child, Chen Yu is really a good physicist."

That Chen Yu graduated from the Daoist Hall, and I heard that he has learned some techniques of physiognomy and calculation, and there are no mistakes or omissions in his usual inferences.

"In a few days it will be time to enroll. Meng Xuetang has two semesters a year. This is the first semester. The first semester has five months in total. That is to say, you will stay in the eldest son city for about four or five months. These Chen Yu should have told you all."

Chen Sheng nodded and replied, "Shangguan Chen told me everything."

Zhang Ji looked at Chen Sheng and felt quite surprised. According to Chen Yu, Chen Sheng was only fourteen years old.

But even though he was only fourteen years old, he was not as calm as his peers.

"Chen Yu also told me about your matter. I will ask the supervisor here to hand over your twenty-odd days' wages to you, Ah Weng. Is there anything else you need to do?"

Zhang Ji pointed to the outside of the shack and asked.

"If not, just get on the carriage with me and go to the eldest son city. The carriage is outside. We have to start. Otherwise, I will be punished if I miss the start of school."

Chen Sheng glanced at Zhang Ji, the fearful feeling on Zhang Ji had disappeared, and Chen Sheng also became a little more courageous, he pondered for a while, then summoned up his courage and said, "I want to have a few more words with Ah Weng. "

"it is good."

Zhang Ji simply nodded.

"But I can only give you half a quarter of an hour, as soon as possible."

Zhang Ji left the shack, and all the workers around him gathered around Chen Feng and Chen Sheng.

"Chen Feng, you got a good son."

"This man looks like a high-ranking official, Baihu, or Eagle Wolf Guard... Tsk tsk... think so much of your son..."

"Then what is 'Meng Xue Tang'... Can you tell me about it, can my children enter?"

……

All kinds of auspicious words came, Chen Feng just sat on the ground and just smiled. The high-ranking officials all praised his son very much, it seems that he really wants to honor his ancestors.

"Ham, don't bother others, haven't you heard? Chen Feng is going to the eldest son city for five months. The eldest son city seems to be far away from our Liting. They can't come back for such a long time. Let them talk to each other. "

A man stood up, drove away the crowd who rushed forward, and persuaded.

Chen Sheng thanked the man who chased him away: "Thank you, Second Uncle."

"It's all a family, why don't you say thank you."

The man Chen Sheng called second uncle waved his hands.

In fact, everyone was a hometown gathering, and the man who drove them away was also an uncle of Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng smiled, then turned to look at his father, Chen Feng.

"Aon..."

Chen Sheng softly called out to his father, this time he called out much softer than before.

In front of him was a smile that his father hadn't seen for a long time. He had grown so much, it seemed that he had never seen his father's smile.

Every time he saw his father's face, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were filled with sorrow.

He wanted to grow up, eat less, his father's brows would no longer be furrowed, his mother's fatigue would be less tired, his little sister could eat more, and his family's situation would be better.

It's just that he grew up day by day, but he couldn't help him a little bit. His father's back became more and more curved day by day.

"Ugh……"

Chen Feng nodded and smiled in response, just smiled, but his eyes blurred.

He didn't know why he was crying, obviously everything was alright, he didn't need to worry anymore, he didn't need to worry about his wife and children anymore, and his son had a bright future, but he didn't care Hold back your tears.

Chen Feng opened his mouth, wanting to say something to Chen Sheng, but he didn't know what to say.

"Take care of yourself and don't worry about your family..."

After a stalemate for a while, Chen Feng finally choked out a word.

Chen Sheng knelt on the ground slowly, and bowed respectfully to Chen Feng.

"A Weng, I will definitely study hard, study hard, get into the county school, and don't embarrass A Weng, A Niang, and my Chen family."

Chen Feng patted Chen Sheng's head, all he felt was apology.

"Good boy..."

Chen Sheng wiped the teardrops from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and bowed to Chen Feng for the last time.

He clenched his fists tightly, stood up, and walked out of the shack.

Outside the wooden shed, the wind was bitterly cold, but Chen Sheng didn't feel the slightest chill.

On the official road, a strange motorcade was parked on it. These carriages were different from the ones Chen Sheng had seen before. These carriages had two more wheels than ordinary carriages.

One after another, the eagle wolf Wei Ti cavalry, wearing black eagle wolf uniforms, guarded the side of a carriage with a goose feather knife.

Zhang Ji, wearing a white wolf suit, stood at the front of the convoy, waiting for his arrival.

Chen Sheng took a deep breath, his eyes gradually became firmer.

He took a step forward and walked slowly towards the convoy on the official road, walking firmly step by step.
