Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 99
It was said that they would leave in three days, but Li Dafu had already arranged carriages, guards, and other affairs on the second day, intending for Li Xiuyuan to set off immediately and go to the city.

As for why, Li Xiuyuan didn't know.

But you still have to listen to what your father said.

"Xiaodie, don't tidy up so carefully, you'll buy something when you're in the city." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Understood, young master."

Xiaodie's voice sounded from inside the house, and soon she was seen running out with a small package.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "What treasure are you hiding, you don't want me to know."

"No, there are no treasures, just some clothes, young master, let's go quickly, the master is already urging." Xiaodie said with a slightly red face.

Li Xiuyuan glanced at it, and didn't ask any more about the daughter's family. He went to the backyard to say goodbye to his mother, and hurried away with Xiaodie.

At the door, the escort carriage was ready.

It seems that because he was attacked by Lord Heishan last time, and now he is a little too cautious, there are nearly a hundred guards accompanying him this time, and they are all wearing leather armor, carrying waist knives and bows, and staying in the county. The elite escorts were all arranged.

"Father, there are too many guards. Bringing so many guards is too annoying. We are not a family of officials. If we go to the city and are talked about by some caring people, it will cause trouble." Li Xiuyuan said.

Although the imperial court can't help keeping guards in captivity, bows and arrows, knives and sticks, but if they are equipped with such elite cavalry, dozens or hundreds of them will definitely be suspected.

Although the Li family is rich, they don't have the power above the imperial court, so they can't make such a big splash.

Li Dafu smiled and said: "Don't worry, my son. These are bodyguards. After they go to the city, they will go to the bodyguard company to settle down. There is a bodyguard company opened by our Li family in the city, so no one will notice it. But, wait until you go. After the city, you need to leave a team of guards by your side."

"Father, the situation of Mr. Heishan is special. The thousand-year-old monster may not produce one for hundreds of years, and the one in Guobei County has already been killed by us. It will be difficult to find another one." Li Xiuyuan said .

"There are no absolutes in this world. It's better to be well-prepared. Don't worry, we're just walking together and won't cause any trouble." Li Dafu said.

Li Xiuyuan felt that his father's words made sense, so he didn't insist.

"Father, the child is leaving." After getting into the carriage with Xiaodie, he bid farewell.

Li Dafu smiled and watched him leave.

The team drove all the way and soon left Guobei County.

This time I came out, and I am going to come back, I am afraid that it will be the end of the year, at least after finishing the scholar examination, it is the longest trip.

However, Li Xiuyuan's mood was not happy, on the contrary a little heavy.

The last time it was only on the road from Guobei County to Wangchuan Mountain, I encountered many ghosts and ghosts.

This time I went to take the talent test, and I didn't know what I would encounter.

"Have you brought my Hungry Golden Spear and Golden Goose Bow?" Li Xiuyuan asked inside the carriage.

"Don't worry, Eldest Young Master, bring it." A guard outside responded.

Li Xiuyuan nodded, but immediately thought of something, he shook his head and smiled wryly: "Others carry pens, ink, paper and inkstones, books and classics when they go to study for exams, but I have to carry a gun and a bow. I don't look like a scholar."

But it doesn't work without it. Now every time he thinks about what happened a few days ago, the tragic death of a dozen guards around him, he feels bad.

"This time I went to the city. When I see the city god, I must ask the city god to designate Tieshan and the others as ghost messengers, and we can't let them be unjust ghosts."

He secretly thought in his heart that this matter was more important than his own examination of talent.

Suddenly, he thought of something again, and asked, "Where are you now?"

"Eldest young master, you will be on the official road soon." A guard responded.

"Changing the road, let's go to Xiahe Village first, I have a private matter to attend to." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Okay, young master." The guard responded and changed his words immediately.

"Wait here, give me a horse, and I will go into the village by myself."

When the crowd came to the entrance of the village, Li Xiuyuan ordered the crowd to stop, and then walked out of the carriage.

"But young master, the master has ordered that you must be accompanied by a guard at all times." A guard said.

"Don't worry, I'm going to the village to do business. I'm not going to the wilderness. Nothing will happen. I'll be back soon. If you don't see me back in half an hour, go find me again." Li Xiuyuan said.

At this time, someone brought a horse, and after he took the reins, he immediately got on the horse and ran towards Xiahe Village.

The guards saw that Li Xiuyuan was only going to a nearby village, so they didn't follow. After all, the young master had to listen to his orders.

Along the familiar road, Li Xiuyuan came to Xiahe Village.

Soon, he came to a family in the village and stopped.

"Hey, isn't this the young master? Why did you come back suddenly today?" Aunt Wang, who was sitting in the yard next door feeding the chickens, greeted Li Xiuyuan enthusiastically when she saw him.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Come back to pick someone up, is Du Chunhua at home?"

"Yes, my sister is at home every day, and she doesn't go out much, just waiting for the young master to pick her up."

Now Xiahe Village has been discussing it all over, and everyone knows that Widow Du, no, Du Chunhua is lucky to follow the young master, and now he is waiting for the young master to send someone to pick him up.

No, not only did he come today, but he also came in person, which is quite a blessing.

Aunt Wang smiled and said, "Young master just came, I'm afraid my sister hasn't heard, I'll call you, Chunhua, sister Chunhua, are you still in the house? The young master is here, why are you still in the house?" , even the young master is gone?"

After shouting a few words, there was movement in the room.

The door opened with a bang, only to see a delicate, fair-skinned woman with black braids and a slightly red face, who came out happily and shyly.

When she saw Li Xiuyuan standing at the gate of the yard, her heart was beating so hard that it was about to jump out of her throat.

"Big, young master." Du Chunhua calmed down, and said shyly.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Go, clean up, and leave here with me. Last time I said I would pick you up, but I was delayed because of something. It has been delayed until now, and I can't delay any longer."

"Eh."

Du Chunhua responded happily, and ran into the house excitedly, and came out with two packages in a short while.

Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment: "So fast?"

"Eldest young master, how can you be unhappy, Miss Chunhua has already packed her things a few days ago, and she did it again yesterday." Aunt Wang said with a smile.

"No way, Wang, Aunt Wang, don't talk nonsense." Du Chunhua blushed and retorted softly.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Aunt Wang, I'm in a hurry today. I was going to set up wine in the village and invite the big guys to have a meal. Now I can't do it. Let's wait for me to come back another day. I will send red envelopes to each of you. Thank you." You have taken care of the spring flowers all these years."

"This, what a shame, they are all from the village. It's normal to help each other a little bit. How can I accept the red envelope from the young master?" Aunt Wang said.

"It should be, just take it as a little thought from me." Li Xiuyuan said.

Aunt Wang laughed and said something again, but she didn't reject Li Xiuyuan's intention.

After all, the Li family's red envelopes are very greedy. They are not a few pennies, maybe a few taels of silver, so I can't push it even if I want to.

If he was pushed by him, other people in the village would have to fight for him.

But Chunhua sister followed the young master, and later gave out the red envelopes, so she would have face in the village.

Thinking of this, Aunt Wang became even happier.

"Sister Chunhua, you are also a person with a hard life. From now on, you will serve the young master well with the young master. The young master is a good person and kind-hearted. You must listen to the young master in everything." Aunt Wang instructed again.

"Oh, I see." Du Chunhua replied.

"Let's go."

Li Xiuyuan carried Du Chunhua onto the horse, took a ride together, and galloped out of the village with her.

　It's still a transitional chapter, and it's impossible not to write it. Fortunately, it's not on the shelves now, so it's not cheating money.

　　By the way, let me tell you another little story: if someone encounters a ghost, the degree of danger is generally divided by the color of the ghost you see.

　　White is harmless, red may cause serious illness, and black may be fatal.

　　White, red, black, there are only these three, there can be no other colors, if there are, then you are absolutely wrong.
