chapter 8
"Oh, Captain Cao, you're here. How's it going? Have you checked?" Ni Tu yawned, rubbing his sleepy eyes with his hands.

"Let's go! This is two taels of silver, hurry up! I'm afraid you will be killed if you are late!" Captain Cao's voice was eager.

"What's wrong?" Ni Tu suddenly asked in confusion.

"Don't ask so many questions, there are some things you don't need to know, so hurry up!" Dui Cao's tone was very urgent.

"Brother, please speak clearly, otherwise, if I drag everyone down, I will feel unwilling."

Seeing that Ni Tu wouldn't leave easily if he didn't make it clear, Captain Cao said, "The captain found out about the saw and was furious for a while, so he decided to order someone to tie you up and send you to the army, and knock you down." Is it. Do you want to lose your head?"

When Ni Tu heard this, he obviously had the opposite idea in his heart: Yes, the captain should be ecstatic when he discovered a sharp weapon like a saw, and then he thought about getting to know a genius like me, and want to use me and give me military merit. This is the right logic.

However, Ni Tu quickly figured out why Captain Cao was so eager to drive him away.

According to the above logic, the captain must have given a military merit to this group of people.But Captain Wang must have wanted to embezzle military achievements, so he thought of killing Ni Tu, a genius, and murdered him, so that he could monopolize this rare military achievement.

They are crazy about military achievements, but after all, they are still looking forward to this rare achievement, how can they not be jealous?If they were really taken away by the school captain, all their credit would be for naught.For everyone's benefit, killing yourself is the best choice.

But Dui Cao couldn't bear it anymore.Probably because of the temporary imperial examination, the two felt sympathetic to each other.

Having figured this out, Ni Tu stood up and bowed deeply to Captain Cao.

"Deputy Cao saved his life, and Ni Tu will never forget it. If you have a great day, you can come to me and promise to do something for Deputy Cao in order to repay the life-saving grace. "

Captain Cao smiled awkwardly: "Okay, I wish my virtuous brother a speedy ascension to the Nine Heavens."

When Ni Tu got up and walked to the door, he suddenly turned around and asked, "Brother, do you have something to say?"

"But it's okay to ask." Captain Cao returned calmly.

"Aren't all the scholars who participated in Chunwei going to have a future? If things go on like this, who still has the heart to study scriptures for dozens of years?"

Captain Cao naturally knew that he was looked down upon as a rank-[-] lower-ranking team deputy, especially scholars, who regarded him as a disgrace to literati.

But compared with Ni Tu, a self-degraded person, he has an incomparable superiority.

"Don't you, my dear brother, know the scrolls?"

"The so-called running papers means that before the imperial examination, you and other scholars' previous works will be sent to dignitaries and celebrities, so that they can help you with personal marketing."

Ni Tu remembered that it was recorded in the history books that the great writer Han Yu passed the Jinshi examination three times and failed three times in a row.During the fourth exam, Han Yu had a premonition that he might fail again, so with the mentality of giving it a try, he went to the retired prime minister Zheng Yuqing to take the exam.Zheng Yuqing saw his work and felt that it was a talent, so he publicized it in the circle of friends to build momentum for Han Yu.With the help of his big backer, Han Yu successfully passed the Jinshi examination and reached the pinnacle of his life.

Thinking of this, Ni Tu casually replied: "By the way, I found the Qianjin Princess travel scroll."

No, is it time for the princess Qianjin in history to get married at this time?What's the use of looking for her even though she's been left out in the cold?How could he say such a thing.

Ni Tu felt that he had made a slip of the tongue, and suddenly looked up to see the shocked look on Captain Cao's face.Ni Tu cupped his hands to him and stepped out.

After finding his own baggage, he cut another pine stick, stole a saw blade from the blacksmith, and then strode towards another mountain bag.

I don't know why when I mentioned Princess Qianjin, I felt warm in my heart.Since Ni Tu traveled through time, he no longer remembers some memories, except for the matter of learning, he still remembers it very clearly, and the rest of the people and things are all wiped out.

It seems that the ordeal suffered by the original owner in Cui's house was too tragic, or some memories were so unforgettable that they were taken away by the original owner?

Could it be that I still have a good story with Princess Qianjin?
I don't know, I forgot, I don't understand.

Ni Tu bitterly sighed that people's hearts are not old, and the world has fallen.I thought that contributing a sharp weapon like a saw would help me make a contribution in the army, but in the blink of an eye, someone took over and I wanted to chop myself off.

This is different from the plots of previous time-travel novels.

It should be that he was sealed for merit, and then he was photographed by the general, crying and begging himself to marry a girl from his family, so as to squeeze out his unique talents.As for myself, I gained huge wealth by relying on lustful thinking and ingenuity, and became a great merchant in Chang'an.

No, after working hard for a while, is it worth two taels of silver?Ni Tu gritted his teeth fiercely, put the silver in his hand into his bosom, waved his hand, and said goodbye to these shameless guys.

In the evening, the dense fog shrouded the sky, and the snowflakes were still drifting with the winter wind.Ni Tu was not feeling well, so he had to sing loudly: "On the gold list, I occasionally lose the leading position. In this life, I have left behind a virtuous man, what should I do? If the situation is not successful, the fight will not be unrestrained. Why should we talk about death? Talented poets are naturally white clothes Your Excellency. Fireworks Lane, according to the promise of Danqing barrier. Fortunately, there is someone you like, and it is worth looking for. And you cuddle up to the red and lean on the emerald green, have a romantic life, and have a smooth life. Youth is paid for it. Bear with the false name, change it and sing in a low voice!"

"Tolerate the false name, and change it to a shallow pour..."

The sky gradually darkened, and the sound of wolves came from this deep forest.

Ni Tu was worried that he would be eaten by wolves, so after turning over the hill, he turned into a straight road.

Fortunately, there was a child standing by the roadside on this remote avenue.

Ni Tu just wanted to say hello to this child, but he didn't expect him to run up to him and knelt down, his hands still tightly clutching Ni Tu's sleeves.

"What's the matter? Do you want something to eat?" Ni Tu couldn't bear to look at the sallow and emaciated child, so he wanted to give him a bun from his backpack.

Unexpectedly, the child cried and said: "Please do me a favor. My aunt died of illness and was thrown on the way to her relatives. My younger brother has already gone to call someone. I beg you to reward me with some silver so that I can buy a coffin." Aunt Shengyi, Auntie has suffered all her life, and when she died, I just wanted to let her go away with dignity."

When Ni Tu saw that he immediately thought of his son from his previous life, his heart felt uncomfortable, so he quickly helped the child up and asked, "Where is your mother?"

"There!" The child led Ni Tu to a pile of grass.

Ni Tu boldly looked over, and there was a middle-aged woman lying on the haystack, her whole body was dirty.Her eyes were closed and she appeared to be asleep.

Ni Tu was worried that this person had the disease, so he took a few steps back and covered his nose.

Ni Tu took out the silver from his bosom, picked out one and put it in the child's hand, saying: "Take it, and bury your mother properly."

"Benefactor, I have money for the coffin, but it also costs a lot of money to buy the land for the tomb."

The kid fixed his eyes on the other silver coin in Ni Tu's hand.

Ni Tu thought that he would have to travel long distances in the deep mountains, and he would not need any silver taels, so he decisively put another silver coin in the child's hands.

The child happily bowed deeply to Ni Tu.

Ni Tu felt that he had done a good deed, and he was very happy, and his steps forward were very refreshed.

However, when walking a distance of [-] meters, I heard the child behind me shouting in surprise: "Aniang, Aniang, I got two taels of silver from this fool. It's real at a fair price. Look!"

Ni Tu's face turned green.

Ni Tu turned around abruptly, and suddenly saw the woman sitting up on the haystack a hundred meters away, grabbed the silver from the child, carefully put it in a small cloth bag, and put it in the bag. into the arms of a child.

The two were overjoyed, completely ignoring Ni Tu who was shivering fiercely in the cold wind.

"Cheating, cheating, cheating again! The world is getting worse, people's hearts are not old! The world of Tang Dynasty is a kingdom of liars!" Ni Tu shouted angrily.

The child took out a long knife from his arms very vigilantly.

Looking at the shining knife, Ni Tu stomped his feet resentfully, turned around and climbed towards a nearby hill.

The avenue can no longer be walked, and if you continue to walk, your life will still be lost.The point is that people's hearts are sinister, and they don't know how they died.

He decided that the mountains and dense forests are better, even if there are only beasts, but the beasts at least treat each other honestly.If you want to eat yourself, you will grin your teeth, and if you are afraid of yourself, you will run away with your tail between your legs. Like these people, they are full of hypocrisy and deceit.

Ni Tu was walking through the dense forest in a dispirited mood, when he suddenly heard a child at the foot of the mountain crying.

Ni Tuxin said: "Meet another unlucky ghost."

Ni Tu, gloating over his misfortune, looked down through the thick pine needles, and suddenly found that the child was lifted by the neck by a man on horseback.

The woman desperately dragged the child's legs and feet.

The man drew out his long knife and slashed at the woman's neck, causing blood to splash.The woman suddenly let go and fell to the ground.

The child took out the long knife in his arms and stabbed at the big man, but the big man grabbed his wrist and snatched the knife away with his backhand.Another kick kicked the child off the horse.Turning over his hand, it turned out to be the money bag in the child's arms.He grabbed a handful, nodded in satisfaction, and said with a big smile, "Big harvest!"

The child fell on A Niang's body and cried bitterly.

Hearing the heart-piercing cries, the big man was very irritable, he threw away the snatched knife and stabbed it in the back of the child's heart. The child stiffened and threw himself on his mother.

The two fell in a pool of blood.

"If you don't stay here, you will have your own place. If one grave falls, there will be more graves standing up!"

Ni Tufan suddenly realized that this person was the bandit who escaped from Mt.That bandit who was dubbed by Team Wang for possessing strange skills and ingenuity.
