Yu Jun

Chapter 5 The Way Home

A person from the Mo family team came out, walked straight to Wu Jin, thanked him in a low voice, and then sneaked behind Wu Jin like a fish, asking Wu Jin to go ahead without worry.

At this time, Mo Lingfeng also untied the rope around his waist, and left with his brother.

Wu Jin hesitated for a moment, then untied the brown rope on his wrist, and walked forward. This time there was someone behind him, but his steps became unsteady.

After walking not far, his foot suddenly slipped, and he slammed into the railing. With a "click", the decayed railing broke instantly, and he fell straight into the deafening stream.

One hand firmly grasped Wu Jin's arm, lifted him up effortlessly, and inserted him back into the muddy path like a spring onion.

In a short while, Wu Jin's muscles were weak and his soul was weak, his heart froze in his chest, and when his legs fell on the ground, his heart beat wildly in his chest again, almost jumping out of his mouth.

The exclamation was swallowed back from his throat.

He was flushed with panic, sweating profusely, and looked straight ahead, but found that such a big movement did not disturb the two brothers and sisters in front.

The short distance became a natural barrier, separating him and Mo Lingfeng into two insurmountable worlds.

The blood on Wu Jin's head and face due to fright faded away in an instant, she turned her head and thanked her, raised her hands and feet like lead, and walked forward.

After leaving the Xiongshi Gorge, it was a smooth road. After half a day, the Mo family's horse team arrived in front of the Mo family's gate.

Wu Jin glanced around immediately, and saw two big red lanterns hanging from the corridor, with a gold plaque on it reading "Ambassador of Kuanzhou Guarding Jinglue Jiedu". Come out and stand outside with your hands down.

The brothers and sisters of the Mo family got off their horses, stepped up the stone steps, and stepped into the shadow of the plaque. The gate quickly swallowed them in.

The person riding with Wu Jin turned his horse's head and said, "Where does my brother live, I'll take you home."

Wu Jin told him where to live, and the man sent him to Shishi Street, the side of the street was full of sundries, fat people had to walk sideways, even horses couldn't even think about it.

People on Ten Stone Street probably never imagined that one day horses could pass on this street.

He got off his horse at the intersection of the street and ran all the way home. His family members were in a state of anxiety, and Wu's mother even went out of the city to wait for a while. I also forgot to ask about the whereabouts of the basket, and just boiled ginger soup.

Wu Jin changed out of her wet clothes, wiped her hair half dry, drank a bowl of spicy ginger soup, and when she sat by the bed, she was so tired that she couldn't even move her fingers.

Younger brother Wu Yi spread out the quilt: "Brother, I'll sleep here to warm your feet."

After finishing speaking, he yawned heavily, got into the quilt and closed his eyes, and after a few breaths, he started snoring.

Wu Jin was also like melted wax, his body was dripping down, he stood up with gritted teeth and stared, walked to the table, cut off a large lantern flower, rubbed ink and laid paper.

The head of the Academy mentioned the "Daily Record" when they entered school. One day's work, one day's gain, one day's precepts, falling on paper and pen, can strengthen the heart and persevere.

"On February 20th, Yuanzhang [-], I went to Xiongshan Temple to settle my father's bank account, and met a precious person, like the wind, the Bodhisattva was shaken, and the Buddha Hall was closed, but it was invisible.

It is unlucky to draw the Avalokitesvara spirit lottery, and it is also unlucky to encounter a strange rain. I was lucky enough to listen to Xun, which will be unforgettable for a lifetime. "

After writing, he pondered for a moment, and silently signed the spiritual lottery he had drawn: "I am playing in the Bibo Pool, surrounded by a net in the dark; I have no idea and come out, and I am destined to go to the spring pass to suffer alone."

Although the rain was heavy, the music was unpleasant, and she was frightened on the road, but fortunately, there was no danger, the cold did not come to her, and Wu Jin continued to rush about her studies and selling cakes.

After more than half a month like this, the weather has improved a lot, Zawen Jiaoyu and lecturer led a group of students out of the city to see the scenery.

As soon as he left the state school, Cheng Ting, who didn't like reading, shook his prestige and knew all the horse farms outside the city. shoot.

When they arrived at the water and grass field where the cows and horses were biting their tails, Cheng Ting was already parched, his voice was loud and hoarse, and he was yelling for Wu Jin to bring him water, when another group of gentle and dignified students flocked to him, laughing and calling Cheng Ting.

Cheng Ting's face collapsed in an instant.

It turns out that there is another "Tunan Academy" in Kuanzhou, which selects the best for admission, and it costs a lot of money to study. It seems that Cheng Ting, who can afford it, can't pass the exam, and Wu Jin, who can pass the exam, can't afford it. The two academies are at odds It's been a long time, I didn't expect to come to see the grass today.

"Hey, Cheng San, Wu Jin, when did the two of you get along so well?"

A young man surnamed Wang, whose family background was evenly matched with Cheng Ting, teased loudly: "Both of them can't come up with a rhyme, of course the relationship is unusual!"

As soon as the words fell, Cheng Ting's face flushed with anger, and the red envelopes on his face were ready to come out: "Wang Wugui, what kind of onion are you, you are worthy of Wu Jin, besides essays, what else can you compare to him?" You've been eating ashes behind his ass all day long!"

"He sells cakes to settle accounts. He is not good at arithmetic, and he loses his crotch!"

"There are so many cake sellers on the street, why did Wu Jin appear? Just admit it, you read day and night, and your head is bald. You can't compare to a cake seller, idiot!"

"Better than you!"

"I'm smart. If I was willing to study, I would have surpassed you. I think that old yellow dog in our academy has more spirit than you."

"You're a smart fart. If you hook up with a cake seller, sooner or later you'll only be as successful as a cake seller."

Wang and Cheng came and went, Cheng Ting won a complete victory, Young Master Wang turned pale with anger, swung his arms round, pointed at Cheng Ting, and hit him right on the head.

Before her hand touched Cheng Ting, Wu Jin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stretched out her hand, slapped Young Master Wang on the face, and pushed Young Master Wang four or five steps away.

Without waiting for Master Wang to stand still, Wu Jin straightened her clothes and bowed to everyone in Tunan Academy: "The sage said, 'Wealth is something you can ask for, even if you are a man with a whip, I will do it', whether it is me selling cakes or Holding the whip for others is in line with the Tao, so why not do it?"

He was so frank that people had nothing to say.

The classmates spoke out one after another and became peacemakers. Young Master Wang wanted to return Wu Jin's slap, but seeing the Jiaoyu and Daolang came together, he could only withdraw the slap angrily and went to listen to the admonition.

After the lecturer came up with the question, the group of students dispersed in a crowd, scattered in the haystack like cattle and sheep.

Cheng Ting dragged Wu Jin and led three attendants to the "Shangyang Horse Farm" to rent a few good horses for a gallop.

Close to the horse farm, the stench of horse manure was lingering. The horse breeder Xi Guan smiled when he saw Cheng Ting, and took out several listings for Cheng Ting to choose from, with the origins of several good horses written on them.

Cheng Ting looked at it for a while, and suddenly put a sign in front of Wu Jin: "You have merited escort today, I invite you, if you shirk, be careful that if I get annoyed, then—"

He remembered that Wu Jin could push Wang Gui so far with a single slap, and that he was very skinny, so he might not be able to beat him, so he changed his words: "I won't be with you."

　More today, take a day off tomorrow
