Literati Sanctification

Chapter 60
Heng Xiulin and the two had eaten, and then they went to the guest room upstairs. At this time, Heng Xiulin discovered something, that is, Xiaoyu only had one room, and there was only one room in the room. Just a big bed.

Seeing this scene, Heng Xiulin couldn't help but glance at Xiaoyu. Although this girl wants to save money, at least she needs to open an extra room, right?
Without waiting for Heng Xiulin to say anything, Xiaoyu blushed slightly, brought a basin of hot water for Heng Xiulin, then took off Heng Xiulin's shoes and socks, and began to wash them carefully.

After Heng Xiulin finished washing, he wiped it clean again, and then helped Heng Xiulin lie down on the bed. After extinguishing the candle, a thin body got into Heng Xiulin's bed.

Heng Xiulin could feel that Xiaoyu's body suddenly trembled the moment it touched him, and then became stiff and motionless.

Seeing this, Heng Xiulin thought of something, shook his head slightly, and embraced Xiaoyu in his arms. Without any other movements, Xiaoyu's originally stiff body gradually relaxed, and then followed Heng Xiulin Slowly fall asleep.

The next day, Heng Xiulin was woken up by Xiaoyu, who was already holding a basin of hot water in front of Heng Xiulin, waiting for Heng Xiulin to get up and wash.

"Young master, those people are about to leave. If you don't get up, those people will go to Shili Village."

Hearing the words, Heng Xiulin immediately woke up, and then, under the service of Xiaoyu, he began to wash up. After a while, Heng Xiulin and Xiaoyu appeared under the restaurant, which was already full of people at this time. Merchants.

Everyone had finished discussing with Wang Xiangxi and was leaving today, and those merchants who were stranded here, after hearing the news, rushed over one after another and got together with everyone.

When Heng Xiulin and the two came down, everyone had already gathered. Seeing them, some merchants who had seen Heng Xiulin and the two in the restaurant yesterday immediately gave them a cold look, and then He just turned his head away from looking at the two of them.

The merchants who didn't know Heng Xiulin and Heng Xiulin, after seeing Heng Xiulin and Heng Xiulin wearing a Confucian shirt, suddenly understood that Heng Xiulin was also a literati, so he was a little curious asked.

"Who is this person? Could it be that he is also a literati who went to get rid of demons together?"

It's no wonder he misunderstood. At this time, he was still going to Shili Village and he was still a literati. It was very possible that he also went to get rid of the demon together.

"Hey? It's just him, just hitching a ride with us and passing through the Ten Mile Village together."

"That's right, don't think about it too much. This person is probably just an ordinary person. Otherwise, why would he follow us to the Ten Mile Village? He would have gone there alone."

A few merchants who knew about Heng Xiulin immediately sneered when they heard the words, and then said disdainfully, obviously they were full of disdain for a talented literati like Heng Xiulin.

"So that's it, let's go, Wang Xiangxi has already set off, let's catch up quickly, don't fall behind."

After one person glanced at Heng Xiulin indifferently, he got into the carriage, and then driven by the groom, the carriage slowly moved forward. Many merchants gathered together, and the road left was full of people. Carriages lined up in a long line.

Sitting behind her, Xiaoyu listened to everyone's evaluation of her young master just now, her mouth puffed up in anger, her young master is not an ordinary person, in Heshui City, her young master is the number one talented person.

Although Xiaoyu didn't know how talented her son was, it didn't prevent her from knowing that even the magistrate was very kind when he treated her son.

These people in front of her are actually so contemptuous of her young master, Xiaoyu is really a little angry, if not for her young master not saying anything, otherwise she must go forward and argue with them.

"Let's go, don't pay attention to what they say."

After touching Xiaoyu's little head, Heng Xiulin comforted him and then got into the carriage. Xiaoyu pouted, then climbed into the carriage as well, and then drove the horses to follow behind the group of merchants.

The long convoy was driving on the road, and soon left the county seat, heading towards Shili Township, probably because there were too many people, which gave everyone a sense of safety, so the road gradually became noisy. It is the voice of everyone talking loudly.

Xiaoyu, who was sitting behind him, saw this situation, and remembered the story about a monkey that his son told him yesterday, and was entangled in what would happen to the monkey next, so he entangled Heng Xiulin again and started talking about monkeys story.

Heng Xiulin also didn't appeal to her, and continued with the story he told her yesterday.

Xiaoyu listened with relish, and then drove the carriage, not feeling bored at all, time passed unknowingly, and a small village appeared in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.

The convoy in front also began to drive aside and stopped slowly. Seeing this, Heng Xiulin ordered Xiaoyu to find a place to stop the carriage. Looking at the current situation, it is obvious that Shili Village is already Arrived.

"You stay in the carriage, I'll go and see if I can get any news."

Heng Xiulin got out of the carriage and said to Xiaoyu, but Xiaoyu shook her head when she heard the words. This is Shili Village. According to what they said, there is a big monster here. If so, then leave her alone. If people are here, wouldn't she be afraid to die.

Thinking of this, Xiaoyu quickly jumped out of the carriage, and then squeezed in front of Heng Xiulin.

"My lord, Xiaoyu don't want to stay here alone, you take me with you, lord."

Xiaoyu pulled Heng Xiulin's clothes tightly, and then said to him nervously, while speaking, she looked at Heng Xiulin pitifully, fearing that Heng Xiulin would leave her here alone.

"Alright then, just follow me."

Heng Xiulin looked at Xiaoyu, then thought for a while and said, in this kind of place, only Xiaoyu was left here alone, and he also felt a little unsafe, so he nodded, letting Xiaoyu stay by his side.

When Xiaoyu heard this, her face flashed with joy, and then she followed Heng Xiulin closely.

The two walked along the road towards the front, while some of the grooms parked on both sides became quiet at this moment. They had heard that there was a demon haunting here, and now they just entered the village, and they felt a little weird The atmosphere spread in this village.

At this moment, all the people did not dare to take a breath. They lowered their heads and went about their own business in tacit understanding. Not only them, but even the village seemed extremely silent.

Seeing this, Heng Xiulin immediately frowned. The village was so quiet that he didn't even hear the crowing of the chickens and the barking of the dogs. This is impossible in the village.

You know, a village, more or less, will raise some chickens and dogs, but right now Heng Xiulin has not seen any of them, and if he didn't look at the people beside the road and only listened to the voices, he would I thought it was a deserted village.

Heng Xiulin frowned, and then stepped into the village. Heng Xiulin saw Wang Xiangxi at a glance in front of him. stand there.

"I'm Wang Xiangxi. I heard that there is a big monster here. Come and check it out. Please report to me about the situation of this monster."

Wang Xiangxi looked at the crowd, then waved his hand, and said calmly to the crowd, even though there was a county magistrate standing in front of him, he still didn't take it to heart.

However, with his status, it is true that he does not need to be so nervous when he sees the county magistrate. A literati who can get rid of the big monster will be welcomed by officials everywhere.

After all, no one can guarantee that such a thing will not happen in his own jurisdiction, and if such a situation happens, and the people below him cannot solve it, if he can invite this literati to help If you solve this big monster, you can add another one to your achievements at that time.

Otherwise, when encountering a problem, they have no way to solve it and have to seek help from above, which will inevitably leave an impression of incompetence, which is very fatal to their official career.

The county magistrate obviously knew this very well, so he didn't mind Wang Xiangxi's attitude at all. On the contrary, after hearing Wang Xiangxi's name, his heart suddenly moved, and then he became extremely enthusiastic.
