Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 185 Two Dreams

In a remote village in Cangzhou:
The cook is boiling water, the children are playing and tearing their clothes, and now they don't know where they are going.

I can't stop being angry, and the white smoke curls up all day, forcing my youth dry.

The water in the cauldron was boiling, and when the man hadn't returned, the cook sat in front of the stove, pulling on the twilight scarf, and took a nap.

"Miss Wang, your man has been away for more than two months, why haven't you seen him yet?"

The cook woke up and looked at the door. It turned out to be the wife of the fisherman next door.The men of their two families, one is a fisherman and the other is a state soldier. To put it bluntly, they are both in risky business. If one fails, the man will leave, leaving orphans and widows.

The cooking woman smelt the edge of the tripod, and the rice was fragrant, so she turned off the fire to prevent the rice from getting burnt.Only leaving some embers to keep warm, the cook stopped what she was doing, and sighed to the sympathetic neighbor at the door: "Oh..."

"Finally, the imperial court is good. My family's food and rice are not short. In the past two months, I have given some more."

The fisherwoman's eyes shone with envy: "I turned around and persuaded the one at home to join the army."

"That's good, that's good. You won't be hungry or cold in the army, and you'll be exempted from rent and tax. How good is it? Why don't you go earlier?" the cook said.

"It's not all his fault, he is afraid that he will be bullied because he is not familiar with the place in the army!" the fisherwoman said with a look of hatred.

The cook smiled and said: "Don't worry about it, my man is an old man in the army, you can take him with you."

"Moo~"

"Baa baa~"

The cook and the fisherwoman looked at each other when they heard the cry of the cattle and sheep, and turned their heads to listen carefully.The fisherwoman said: "I don't see any cattle around here, who has been here?"

The cook did not speak, but heard voices outside:
"Here it is, the cattle are tied, and the things are placed here, this is the reward..." A heavy voice said.

"Okay, the little one will take a step first~"

The two people in the house couldn't hear clearly, only heard the words "cow, something, small", and the fisherwoman was shocked: "Could it be that the robbers robbed things and beat them here?!"

The cook was stunned: "This voice sounds like my man, but, where did he get the cow?"

"It must be a bandit! Close the door quickly!"

"The child is still outside..."

"Scared, I'm still at home alone."

As mothers, the two women stomped their feet anxiously. When one picked up a kitchen knife and the other picked up a hatchet to fight against the thieves, the heavy voice was already approaching.

"Damn it, I'm back~"

"It's really my man!" The cook threw the knife and rushed out, and when she saw her man, she burst into tears.When weeping, I still don't forget to pinch, bite, and stab an elbow.

"Hey, this is a fur coat made for you. Don't suffer from the cold this winter." The man smiled honestly, and turned his head to see the fisherwoman: "Sister-in-law is here too. Kill the sheep tonight, and everyone will have a good meal!"

"Okay, okay, let me see if my house is up..." The fisherwoman responded with a smile, and hurried home, staggering a little.

The cook woman asked what was the matter with the cow, the man mysteriously leaned into the cook woman's ear and said something, the cook woman laughed: "That's all right, you go to be a soldier in the future, with this cow, I will be able to do it myself." It can also grow a few acres of land!"

This scene was staged in more than 2000 households in Cangzhou. Of course, there are also completely different situations, such as those homes where someone died.Although the pension that Xu Qing gave was very thick, no matter how thick the pension was, it couldn't compare to people being here well.

Xu Qing's home:

"Xiaobie is better than a newlywed" is a good sentence, it is night, and the big quilt sleeps together.

The next day, Xu Qing invited relatives and friends, Wang Shan, Niu Checao, Xun Xiaoer, Yan Ku and others, to have a big gathering, and the guests and hosts had a good time.On the third day, I stayed in the governor's mansion for a whole day and dealt with many chores.

On the fourth day, only two letters were written.One was sent to Li Jing, and the general introduced the annexation of the various countries, and taught him how to unite with the Dahe clan to deal with the Turks.A letter was sent to Li Yuan, so it was natural to have to explain it, so I prepared a case with Li Yuan so that no one would make a fuss about it in the future.

After finishing the get off work at hand, when Xu Qing was about to "get off work", a doorman ran in and handed Xu Qing a large package, claiming that it was delivered by an old man wearing a bamboo hat.

Xu Qing asked the doorman: "Hand it over..."

Menzi was puzzled, and returned: "What do you pay?"

"Pay the money, tell me, how much did you charge?"

"No...no..."

"You're still arguing, if a commoner gives me something, don't you want to take care of you?"

Menzi blushed, and took out a letter of silver from his pocket, and put it on Xu Qing's table with a bang, Xu Qing smiled, this letter of silver was probably worth tens of taels.Xu Qingdao: "Come on, one person is half, the next one is not an example!"

Frightened, Menzi divided the money with Xu Qing, and ran out in a hurry as if afraid that Xu Qing would regret it.

Xu Qing weighed the silver in his hand, and sighed that the world is going down, and the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door.When I opened the bag, I saw a leather letter and a simple fragment.

The letter was nothing more than an apology from Dao Yi, saying that Xu Qing left without a gift, and had to be given a replacement gift, and the replacement gift was the fragment that Xu Qing was holding in his hand now. .

This fragment is neither gold nor stone. According to Dou Liweng's letter, that fragment is an alien object, which cannot be melted by fire, impermeable by water, and can be cut like mud. It is a pity that it is such an incomplete and irregular piece. Fragments are of no use.Xu Qing looked at it carefully, and with his experience, he couldn't see the material of this fragment after looking at it for a long time.Find something and try it, it is really as the letter said, water and fire are invulnerable, weapons and guns are invulnerable, amazing!Even in later generations, there is nothing that cannot be smashed with a machete!
From day to night, Xu Qing was completely fascinated by this thing, baby, how about using it as a goggle?
Forget it, Xu Qing thought to himself, then threw the fragments aside, and was about to go out, but saw that the fragments seemed to have some light.Xu Qing hurriedly picked it up again, and the light quickly disappeared.

"The horoscope does not match?" Xu Qing said depressedly, and threw the fragments into the corner.There was no light in the corner, but at this moment, the fragments glowed!It's not the shimmer that was easily misunderstood as an illusion before, but it's sparkling, and it directly illuminates that corner!
"Baby!" Xu Qing swallowed, picked up the fragment and moved it to a bright place, the fragment dimmed again, and as the light increased, the fragment became dimmer.

Suddenly, Xu Qing's head hurt and he felt dizzy. When he looked up, he was already in a different place.

Xu Qing was surrounded by a blood-red sea, and the bottom of his feet was a small piece of land, which was also blood-red. Xu Qing was the only one in the whole world.

"Xue'er, where are you?"

"Xiaoyue, Shimei, come out quickly!"

"Xu Qi, are you playing tricks!"

"Where is Yang Cheng and Yang Xin? The cow eats grass, Wang Shan, come out quickly!"

Xu Qing panicked and was at a loss. He took a step forward, and the ground under his feet moved with him.The sea seems to be boundless.

At this time, a huge head rose from the sea, and a loud laugh came from inside: "Xu Qing, do you still remember me, Lu Jing?"

Xu Qing saw that it was Lu Jing!
Soon, another head came up, and Xu Qing's memory was very clear at this time, and he recognized the owner of that head at a glance——Wang Heihu!Then, one after another, from the few young people that Xu Qing killed at the beginning, to those aristocratic families later, some of them died and some did not die, but now they all turned into blood skeletons and appeared one by one. By Xu Qing's side.

"Zhang Zhong! Uncle Zhang!" Seeing Zhang Zhong's figure inside the blood skull, Xu Qing couldn't help asking in shock, "Uncle Zhang, why are you..."

Regardless of Xu Qing's words, the blood skeletons approached him step by step, a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood!
"Xu Qing, give me my life back~"

The "person" Xu Qing said these words actually looks exactly like him, this person...

"Xu Chuliu?"

"Hahaha, you finally understand, give me back my life wow!"

"Bullshit, if it wasn't for Lao Tzu, your body would have turned into mud!" Xu Qing calmed down, and waved his fists at the bloody skeletons that moved over: "You want Ye's life, you are still far away!"

"You want to hit us so much alone?" All the blood skeletons said in unison.

"If I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time; if I can beat you the first time, I can beat you a second time!"

"bring it on!"

"drink!"

A trace of coolness bypassed Xu Qing's mind, the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood disappeared, and Xu Qing couldn't help but squinted his eyes.When he opened his eyes again, Xu Qing found himself lying in a modern hospital, with two middle-aged men with vicissitudes of life sitting beside the bed.

"Dad? Mom!"

"Hey, my son, you're finally awake!"

"Me, what's wrong with me?"

"The doctor said, you have sunstroke, and the fever will burn your head. You have been in a coma for three days and three nights." The middle-aged woman cried bitterly while hugging Xu Qing. Xu Qing looked at the mottled hair of the woman in front of her. His white hair made his eyes wet.Xu Qing's parents are farmers, so the price of this hospital should not be low for him.

Enjoying the care of his parents, for a while, Xu Qing seemed to have completely forgotten about his journey through the Tang Dynasty.

"Come on, go for the discharge operation." The woman said softly to Xu Qing.

"No, Dad, Mom, I have to deal with official documents and change Xu Xiaoqing's diaper!" Xu Qing said with a smile on the hospital bed: "By the way, you have a grandson. Your grandson's name is Xu Wen. No Method, the name given by the emperor!"

"Silly boy! Burnt head?"

Xu Qing smiled, this dream was really good, Xu Qing closed her eyes to experience it carefully.At this moment, thunder broke out!

Xu woke up, still beside the desk, he sighed: "Fortunately, it's just a dream..." If it wasn't a dream, it would be really difficult to make a choice.

Xu Qing remembered that this was the first time he had dreamed about his parents after having a child, could it be because of the fragments?
Xu Qing quickly kicked the fragments aside, thought for a while, then wrapped the fragments in a cloth and picked them up again.It was getting late, and the fragment in his hand shimmered.

Looking at the letter in his hand, he read most of it, but there were still a few last sentences left, but these few sentences made Xu Qingxin tremble a few times.
