Lord of Hongmeng

Chapter 505 Dongxiang City

"Screaming, it will scare people to death." A leader shouted, seeming very dissatisfied with this frightened attitude.

"Brother, brother, look, look." The yeller didn't respond, but continued to yell.

Finally, someone saw what it was. When they walked in, it turned out to be a man nailed to the wall, his limbs were nailed full of firewood, and there was a stick in his mouth, and the one on his lower body was the thickest. Everyone who arrived couldn't help but be surprised, what's going on, why is there such torture, it's simply too cruel, and I feel very angry in my heart, who is this?
"Ah, brother, look, does this look like some escaped bandit leader?" Suddenly a doorman shouted.

Having said that, everyone looked at it together, and quickly recognized that it was the bandit leader who escaped from their hands. You must know that this is the case, and the strength is naturally not weak. It is unbelievable that there will be such a bad luck. And the cruelty of the death made them all feel shuddering, but now that they knew who it was, all their previous thoughts were thrown away.

"It turned out to be him. It's really hard to find a place. It didn't take much effort to get here. It's good. I must have met some kind of enemy. No, it should be a person with a strong sense of justice. Although I don't know who this person is , It can be seen that he is deeply hurt by this kind of bandit leader, otherwise he would not treat him with such a cruel method, and now he has his last breath, which shows that the method is powerful."

"Yes, senior brother is right, there is indeed one last breath, but it's almost the same. I have committed so many crimes in my life, and I deserve to die like this. However, this method is really powerful, and we can't learn a little. , Brother, what do you say?"

"Yeah, just to keep him from bleeding requires an extremely fast speed. Such a dense firewood is obviously burnt. Such a method is simply admirable. It's amazing. It's amazing. There is more than one death. If you die, you will die." Bar."

"Senior brother said that letting him die in such pain is considered cheap for him. I'd say that I'm torturing him ten or a hundred times."

"Okay, okay, after he dies and cuts off his head, we can go back. This time it's an advantage."

When everyone heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief, and then they thought of who it is, who has this ability, it's unbelievable.

Not long after, the leader of the bandits was fuming, and he cut off his head, but he left immediately, leaving the rest alone.

No one is willing to pay attention to a bandit leader who is full of crimes, just let his sins be washed away here.

Chen Xuan walked for a few days, and finally arrived at Dongxiang City. At this time, the flow of people was rushing, and he didn't intend to jump in line, so he followed behind.

"Have you heard, that group of hateful bandits was finally killed and wiped out. It's great."

"Yeah, yeah, this way you can go out with peace of mind. Those nasty robbers had better have their fronts dead, so it's safer."

"That's right, our Yunling faction is not a vegetarian. It killed this gangster in the blink of an eye, and it did harm to everyone."

"The Yunling faction is the patron saint of our country, so I naturally support it, but it's not easy to join the Yunling faction."

"Okay, you don't have to dream, you have to be both civil and military to be eligible, and it's best to be a child, the effect will be better, it's a pity, there are fewer people who can enter now, and it's not so easy to run for office matter."

Many people are talking about the Yunling sect, and they respect it very much. They want to send their children to this sect, but they get nothing. Because the sect is not theirs, it cannot be strict, they can only abide by it, otherwise they will be punished, this is well known to everyone, no matter how much they discuss it, they dare not speak nonsense.

"I've entered the city, I've entered the city, I hope I can pass the exam this time, if I can enter the imperial court, it's not bad."

Many scholars finally arrived in Dongxiang City with joyful expressions on their faces, and they might pass the exam.

This luck is not what I said, it still depends on luck, and also depends on the candidates of the examiners. Everyone has different personalities and tastes, and there will naturally be differences. Sometimes it will appear here, one day at a time, which makes many people Wept bitterly.

Listening to their words, Chen Xuan knew what they meant. Scholars lived their whole lives for exams. As long as they didn't enter the officialdom, they couldn't be considered successful. Even being a small county magistrate was a consolation of success, so there are many people. There is less porridge, if you want to get it, you must fight for it and make yourself more delicious, so that you can be appreciated and tasted.

Not long after, they entered the city gate with the flow of people, maybe because of the exam, they didn’t charge how to enter the city, but after thinking about it, they realized that they were dressed as scholars, and when they looked back, those merchants still had to pay the city fee. It is a kind of privilege treatment. In order to make the scholar have face and study better, it should be exempted. This can also reflect the status of a class.

Shaking his head, since he doesn't accept it, it's fine, he didn't say that he was a scholar, he just dressed up as a scholar.

After entering the city, I randomly found an inn to stay, ordered a few good dishes, and then began to taste them on my own.

"Brother, can you set up a table here?"

Chen Xuan took a look, nodded and said, "It's okay, please sit down."

When the man heard this, he was overjoyed, and immediately sat down carefully, and when the child came up, he said: "What do you want to eat, guest officer?"

"Children, a vegetable tofu is enough, and a bowl of rice is enough." The weak scholar whispered.

Xiaoer didn't mind listening to it, there were many such things, and not all scholars were rich, so he nodded and said: "Guest officer, wait a moment, I'll come right away."

The weak scholar nodded, holding his package tightly, as if he was afraid of being snatched away.

Just as Chen Xuan was enjoying his meal, he heard a throat sound, looked up, and saw the envy in the scholar's eyes, but he also restrained himself, and felt that he was looking over, and immediately lowered his head, as if he was very shy In general, it suddenly became a little funny.

"Brother, are you hungry? Why don't I invite you for this meal, son, and another pair of bowls and chopsticks." Chen Xuan didn't care, and then said: "Brother, don't you mind, after all, I've eaten all of these ,I'm really sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay, my food will be here soon, no need, no need." The weak scholar was obviously flustered.

"Why are you being polite, when you are away from home, there will always be a time to help. Come, eat, I will not be polite, hehehe, green vegetables and tofu, it's not bad, if you don't eat it, I will eat it." Chen Xuan saw The child brought up his portion of the meal, and he was not polite.

The weak scholar didn't even talk back when he saw it, he just ate his meal carefully, not even daring to pick up the food, he was really flustered.

"Brother, don't be so cautious. Go out and take care of each other. Eat, eat more."

The weak scholar really couldn't resist his persuasion, hesitated for a while, and then picked up dishes that he couldn't even imagine before, and quickly shrank back, as if he didn't hear others' accusations, so he ate. He was not ordinary timid, So weak.

Chen Xuan thought it was very interesting, and didn't care about his behavior, and said from time to time, let him eat more.

In this way, while talking and eating while still persuading, he finally ate up the whole table, and the weak scholar blushed rarely, because he was too full and couldn't eat any more. I have never eaten such a delicious meal.

"Guest officer, a total of 50 taels." Xiao'er came to pay the bill and said to Chen Xuan, who gave the money directly.

Afterwards, the child wanted to tell the weak scholar, but Chen Xuan directly took out the silver and paid, "His is also mine."

"Okay, okay, guest officer." Xiao'er doesn't care who pays, as long as someone pays, he has completed the task.

"As for the extra, just give it to him." Chen Xuan knew that there was still some left, and he didn't need it, so just give it to someone who is destined.

"Brother, this, this, this, it's not good, as the saying goes, you don't get rewarded without merit, brother..." The weak scholar finally spoke.

"No, I know you may be a little nervous now, but you might be in the future. This is friendship. You don't have to be polite. As long as you put your talents to practical use and position yourself properly, you should be more imposing, so that you Like a literati, these are my sponsorships, don't mind, I haven't encountered any troubles anywhere, just let it pass."

Chen Xuan interrupted his words, and directly explained his words, he didn't need to pay back, as long as he used it in practice, he turned and left after speaking, and wanted to take a rest, but the weak scholar was already speechless with excitement It can be said.

"Guest officer, this is eight taels of silver, you keep it." Xiaoer said enviously, who would not like such a thing.

The weak scholar held eight taels of silver, that is to say, just now, the simple vegetables and tofu cost two taels, and he was a half of his family. He really met a noble person, and his heart was even more excited. Then he took a look, I carefully put the money away, and then I walked out of the inn, knowing that this place is not affordable, and I plan to change to a smaller, cheaper one.

Standing upstairs, Chen Xuan watched him leave and did not stop him. Individuals have their own destiny, and helping him by themselves can be regarded as a blessing. As for what will happen in the future, it depends on his ability and perseverance. Once he enters the officialdom, many things will change. It is difficult to say whether he can stick to his will. This is what will test him, and what is in front of him is just a small pass.

I don’t want to think about so many boring things. Now I should think about where to go. Is there any place on this planet that is special? The information is not circulated, and it is difficult to know, not to mention that for ordinary people, Senshan Laolin is a special place.
