Chapter 453 The Arrival of Xianyang Pedestrians!

Chapter 453 The Arrival of Xianyang Pedestrians!
Beside Luoshui, there are green and green hills, and at a glance, hundreds of birds are hovering on the lake that stretches into the distant canyon, and two or three boats are carrying the old man in the lake.

In a gazebo along the coast, women's laughter sounded, if the scenery in front of them is beautiful, then the chatting women are even more beautiful.

Bai Yan was looking at the bamboo slips in the gazebo. With such a behavior, he couldn't help but get a wink from a certain woman and said bored. Fortunately, Bai Yan was used to it. After all, when he went to the woman's boudoir at night, such eyes, such words, always Not less.

Every time he was provoked by a woman under the candlelight, Bai Yan would tell himself in his heart, let alone that woman's bed, she would eat people, even if she got too close to that woman, if she was not careful, her life would be in danger.

"Come and help me! I've caught another fish!"

The woman's chattering voice sounded, and Bai Yan turned his head to look, and saw Zhao Qiu's expression was full of excitement, and he exclaimed excitedly, telling him to hurry over.

Stretching his waist, looking at the fishing rod beside him that had not moved since early in the morning, Bai Yan had some doubts whether the fish he attracted were all cut off by Zhao Qiu and Bao Shi, causing the fish not to enter. The nest was fished away.

"Quick, quick, quick!"

Bai Yan got up, looked at Zhao Qiu who was screaming, and frowned. To be honest, Zhao Qiu with an attractive face is really not at all like the aloof and glamorous Princess Zhao, but like the first princess. A woman fishing.

No, it seems that she is indeed fishing for the first time!
Beside the wooden fence.

Zhao Qiu held a branch, watched the branch bend, and the tip of the pole kept shaking violently up and down, biting his red lips lightly, looking straight at it with beautiful eyes, for fear that the fish would run away or the pole would break.

With Bai Yan's help, a fish bigger than two palms was successfully caught.

However, when it was placed in the wooden barrel he brought, Zhao Qiu saw the huge monster that Bao Shi fell into this morning, and immediately had an excited little face, and castrated it again, looking at Bao Shi unwillingly.

Seeing this, Bao Shi smiled, but didn't say anything.

Bai Yan also wanted to laugh, but thinking that he was worse than Zhao Qiu, it was better not to laugh.

"General, they have all been brought back to the mansion!"

Panting heavily, an iron cavalry soldier came to Bai Yan and saluted Bai Yan.

At this moment, the clothes of this soldier are quite messy, obviously he just came back from a busy schedule.

"it is good!"

Bai Yan nodded, and upon hearing what the soldiers said, he turned to look at Bao Shi, Zhao Qiu and the others.

"Let's go! It's time to go back!"

Bai Yan said, the scenery in front of him is pleasant, and the great rivers and mountains make people feel comfortable, but there are still things to deal with in the end.

Back in the carriage, Bai Yan yawned lazily while looking at Bao Shi beside him, and at Zhao Qiu who was still full of thoughts.

The scenery here in Luoshui is very famous, and the most beautiful moments are sunrise and sunset. In order to take Baoshi to watch the sunrise, Bai Yan got up before dawn.

"Next time you don't have to get up so early, it's good to watch the sunset!"

Bao Shi naturally noticed Bai Yan's appearance and said softly.

"It's okay, I want to see the sunrise too!"

Bai Yan heard Bao Shi's words and explained softly.

Luoshui, also known as bathing water, Luoshui is notoriously changeable, maybe it looks like this this year, but it will be a different scene when it comes to the same place next year, just now Bai Yan asked about Luoshui Finally, Bai Yan had a premonition that in a few decades, the river would even change its course completely, and the mainstream would become the one in Yinguan City.

Even if he is still alive at that time, if he comes here again, he may not be able to see today's scene.

He looked at Bao Shi and Zhao Qiu beside him.

Bai Yan knows that people are always changing, and the world is always changing, and no one can guarantee whether they will be as relaxed and comfortable as they are today. .

Cherish the moment!This is a truth that Bai Yan understood when he committed himself to attacking Yangcheng first.

Some things, some experiences, have passed, and there is really no chance to experience them again.

An hour later.

Inside the mansion in Shanwu City, when Bao and Zhao Qiu returned to the mansion, they saw that the mansion was filled with bundles of bark, and many soldiers were putting the bark on thick ropes to dry.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Seeing this scene, Zhao Qiu looked at the bark covered in the yard, and looked at Bai Yan suspiciously.

Hearing Zhao Qiu's question, Bai Yan looked at the innate arrogance in Zhao Qiu's eyes. To be honest, he still liked the Zhao Qiu when he was fishing.

Bai Yan didn't answer Zhao Qiu, but stepped forward and looked at the bark.

"Call some more people over!"

Bai Yan turned his head to look at his cronies, and ordered.

a day later.

In the mansion, even Mr. Wei, who always likes to be quiet, was disturbed by the movement of the mansion, and hurried to the courtyard. Just now when he came to the gazebo, he saw Zhao Qiu, Mrs. Bao, and other servants of the mansion all looking at the courtyard. , Those soldiers who beat the bark.

"What is this for?"

Elder Wei stepped forward to Bai Yan's side, looked at those who were holding huge mallets and kept beating the bark, and asked with a frown.

To be honest, Wei Lao, who has traveled all over the world, looked at the scene in front of him at this moment, and he didn't know what Bai Yan was doing, why so many soldiers were beating the bark, and those dry bark didn't seem to have outer skin, it seemed Also soaked.

"Teacher, this disciple wants to get some small objects when he has a little spare time!"

Seeing Mr. Wei, Bai Yan quickly turned around and bowed to Mr. Wei.

"Small objects?"

Hearing Bai Yan's words, Old Wei turned his head to look at the bark hanging all over the yard, and at the bark soaked in the pool not far behind him, and a few small fish beside him died.

Such a huge movement, small objects?
Elder Wei suddenly noticed that not far away, there seemed to be pieces of wooden plates dripping with water, covered with something.

Thinking of this, Mr. Wei stepped forward slowly, then walked slowly to the side of the wooden plate, looked at the damp yellow-white thing covered on it, and reached out to touch it.

Elder Wei looked at the boards in front of him, but still couldn't figure out Bai Yan's intentions.

the next few days.

The mansion is still filled with the sound of beating. From morning to night, there are soldiers sweating profusely beating the bark with wooden mallets. The servants and maids in the mansion are already used to it, except for following Bai Yan's instructions, always prepare food , water, and fruit were given to the soldiers, and no one watched at other times.

"He went to Wei Lao's room?"

In Zhao Qiu's room, Zhao Qiu was surprised when he heard the maid's words. Thinking of the movement in the mansion these days, Zhao Qiu thought about it, got up and left the room.

When Zhao Qiu came to Wei Lao's study, Mrs. Bao was behind Bai Yan in the study, looking at the things in Bai Yan's hands.

with curiosity.

Zhao Qiu stepped forward slowly, and also came to Bai Yan's side, and what caught his eyes was a slightly yellowed sheet.

"This is."

Zhao Qiu was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately thought that the shape of the wooden boards that had been drying in the yard for the past few days was strikingly the same as this thing.

Almost instantly, Zhao Qiu immediately understood that this was Bai Yan's purpose for the events of the past few days!

"Teacher, try!"

Bai Yan took the paper in his hand and handed it to Elder Wei, who then asked Elder Wei to try to write on it with a pen and ink.

Seeing Wei Lao's puzzled face, Bai Yan smiled, and raised his hand to signal Wei Lao not to worry, just give it a try.

"Ok?"

Under the watchful eyes of Zhao Qiu and Bao Shi in the study, Mr. Wei just tried with a brush, and immediately felt the effect of the thing in front of him. Seeing the brush and ink that had dried up in an instant, Mr. Wei's eyes lit up.

"This thing is quite good!"

Old Wei said, after trying to write a few words, he nodded in satisfaction, but Old Wei still didn't understand why Bai Yan spent so much energy on this thing.

For simple writing, bamboo slips and cloth can also be used. Although it takes a little time, it is far less labor-saving than making this thing.

With puzzled eyes, Wei Lao looked at Bai Yan.

Old Wei knew that if his disciple was useless, Bai Yan would never waste his energy so much, since he made this now, he must need it.

"Besides writing, what else can this thing do?"

Old Wei asked.

Hearing what Old Wei said, Bai Yan didn't hide anything from Old Wei, but shook his head and gave a wry smile.

"Except for writing, there is no other major use!"

Bai Yan explained.

In an instant, Wei Lao showed surprise and looked at the paper in his hand.

"write?"

When Zhao Qiu heard Bai Yan's words, he was confused by Bai Yan's words. In Zhao Qiu's eyes, Bai Yan spent a lot of effort these days just to write this thing?

Zhao Qiu couldn't figure it out. To Bai Yan, this thing is not as good as bamboo slips.

After all, Bai Yan is not short of money. As a county lieutenant, Bai Yan can use the bamboo slips as he pleases, so there is no need to worry.

Disappointed, Zhao Qiu sighed, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed Wei's hand trembling suddenly, as if thinking of something, he raised his head and looked at Bai Yan in shock.

Seeing this, Zhao Qiu showed a puzzled look.

"Is this all made of bark? Nothing else?"

Elder Wei asked.

"Yes! Just bark!"

Bai Yan nodded.

While talking, Xi happened to bring a dagger according to Bai Yan's order just now.

Seeing this, Bai Yan stretched out his hand to take the dagger that Xi brought, and under the eyes of Mr. Wei, Zhao Qiu, and Bao Shi, he suddenly folded the paper several times and cut it into smaller pieces of paper.

"Bark?"

Hearing what Old Wei said, Zhao Qiu suddenly thought that Bai Yan had indeed had people hold the bark and beat it in the yard in the past few days, and finally made this thing.

But so what, it's all written, if you use bamboo slips to solve the troubles of your body, Bai Yan is not bad anyway.
While thinking about it, Zhao Qiu suddenly thought that when making this thing out of tree bark, and looking at the words written by Mr. Wei on it just now, a thought suddenly appeared in his mind, a thought that made Zhao Qiu's skin crawl.

money! ! !
Bai Yan is not short of money!
But. Ordinary people.

When she turned her head to look at Bai Yan, Zhao Qiumei's eyes were full of disbelief, and she desperately wanted to get rid of this thought in her mind.

However, looking at the boy kneeling beside him, looking at the boy's plain side face, and thinking of the boy's actions in the past few days, Zhao Qiu suddenly had a premonition that there was nothing wrong, absolutely nothing wrong, the reason why he It takes so much effort to make this thing, its purpose
"You want everyone in the world to be literate?"

Old Wei sighed slowly.

Inside the study.

Following Wei Lao's words, Bao Shi was stunned, and looked at Bai Yan with a pretty face, her beautiful eyes were full of surprise, Xi Xi blinked at the side, but didn't react.

Only Zhao Qiu was breathing very restlessly at this moment. Hearing Wei Lao's sigh, he looked directly at the young man beside him. More than shocked.

In the quiet study room, a voice sounded.

"Yes!"

Bai Yan nodded seriously when he heard Wei Lao's words, without hiding anything.

"Disaster!"

As Bai Yan's words fell, Elder Wei shook his head. After speaking, he looked at the paper in his hand. At this moment, Elder Wei's heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.

From ancient times to the present, not to mention Mr. Wei himself, even Mr. Wei traveled around the world and visited many sages. He has never heard of anyone who dared to have such an idea.

Let the world be literate! ! !

"Although this thing is easy, you have a way to make it, but not to mention the letters handed down by sages and sages since ancient times, even the words of a hundred schools of thought are also scattered in various countries, especially Wei, Chu, and Qi. If this thing enters the world, it will only force scholars. People are more afraid of Qin than a tiger."

Elder Wei looked at Bai Yan, but he didn't agree with Bai Yan's idea. Without him, Elder Wei knew the word "interest".

What is most lacking in Qin now, scholars!

The vast majority of scholars in the world have already begun to gather in Qichu and have rejected Qin. Those scholars have no soldiers and no power. Why dare they do this? It is nothing more than that they know the ancient laws and regulations. Qin needs them and will not kill them.

Bai Yan's actions will definitely make those scholars lose the rights they have always been proud of, and they will not make Bai Yan feel better.

Inside the study.

After Zhao Qiu and Bao Shi heard Wei Lao's words, they came back to their senses and looked at Bai Yan in a daze.

After Bao knew what Bai Yan was thinking, her heart was full of throbbing. She never thought that Bai Yan, who had been protecting her all this time, would actually have this idea.

Let the world be literate!

Although she is a woman, Bao Shi can also feel what this action means in the world.

"My disciples also understand what the teacher said. Qin has Qin characters, Qi has Qi characters, and Chu has Chu characters. They are all different. Now that the world is uncertain, how can I not know it? It is impossible to make the world literate."

Under Wei Lao's gaze, Bai Yan explained softly, then looked at Wei Lao, and revealed his real purpose.

"The purpose of the disciple taking out this thing is nothing else, save the book!"

Bai Yan sighed, looked at Wei Lao, and bowed his hands in salute.

"The burning of books by Yingchuan scholars in the past made my disciple feel very sad. I know that what the world needs today is not war. Even if Qin State destroys Yan, Qi, Wei, and even Chu, the future As far as the world is concerned, today's chaos will also recur! What the Qin State really needs are officials, officials who are safe and guarding the people. An official for the people!"

Bai Yan looked at Old Wei.

"So today, disciple, I want to save the world's allusions, to cut off the power of scholars, wait quietly, and the world will be unified!"

After Bai Yan finished speaking, he took a deep breath and saluted Old Wei again.

To make paper, Bai Yan made a lot of determination, and tried many times according to his memory, before he made rough paper.

The reason for this urgency is that everything is related to the news from Yingchuan Gouze. In the news, Bai Yan was keenly aware that not only the gentry of Qi, but also the gentry of Yingchuan and other counties in Zhaodi had all died. They colluded in private and secretly asked other scholars to send their collections to Qi State one after another. If it was inconvenient to send them, they would all be burned on the spot.

Its purpose is to monopolize scholars.

Therefore, after learning about the actions of those scholars, Bai Yan wanted to copy them secretly and store them in Yanmen before the people of Qi started burning books and before Qi Chu perished.

Inside the study.

Listening to Bai Yan's words, both Old Wei and Zhao Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. It's okay just to save the books. As long as the news doesn't get out, then there's no problem. There is a "Jixia Academy" in the door.

Just when Bai Yan and Wei Lao had something to say and wanted to continue talking.

Suddenly, under the leadership of a servant, a confidant hurried to the study and walked up to Bai Yan.

"General! The pedestrians from Xianyang have arrived! The county guard and the censor have already arrived at the mansion!"

The confidant reported to Bai Yan.

Seeing this, Old Wei was not surprised, and looked at Bai Yan.

"It should be a reward from Ying Zheng for your previous meritorious service!"

Old Wei said to Bai Yan that Bai Yan had made a lot of contributions before, and in addition to the defeat of the Xiongnu in the Yunzhong Mountain Range, if he was right this time, he should be able to be promoted.

"Disciple go to meet first!"

Bai Yan saluted Old Wei, now that Old Yang and Mi Jing had arrived at the mansion, and the pedestrians sent by Xianyang had also arrived, so he had to go there immediately no matter what.

The matter of storing and transcribing books can only be discussed in detail with Wei Lao in the future.

"Go!"

Elder Wei nodded.

Watching Bai Yan get up and walk towards the outside of the study, Bao Shi and Zhao Qiu also saluted and said goodbye to Mr. Wei.

Before Zhao Qiu left, he looked at the papers on the desk and heaved a sigh of relief. No one knew how much she was frightened by Bai Yan's actions just now. Fortunately, Bai Yan just planned to save the books.
