The world of Taoism

Chapter 52
At the foot of the mountain, the trees are lush and the canopy is continuous.

The breeze blows and the leaves rustle.

Zhou Xuan walked down the mountain, and five figures jumped down from the tree.

The figure was dressed in casual clothes, about fifteen or sixteen years old.

The face is immature, but the eyes are very firm.

"Master!" Zhou Yi and the others clasped their fists together.

That day when Zhou Xuan returned to the Zhou Mansion in a coma, after Zhou Yi and the others were slapped by Uncle Liu one by one, they did not dare to let Zhou Xuan go out alone.

Zhou Xuan didn't know all this, and Uncle Liu didn't say anything.

Although Zhou Xuan was entrusted to take care of him by an old friend, Uncle Liu had such vicious eyes that he could tell at a glance that these people were refugees fleeing famine.

Half a child is the time to shape the three views.

If he is indulgent, he may have invited a group of uncles.

A group of people eat delicious food and drink spicy food all day long, don't have to work, and are unwilling to work hard. How can there be such a good thing in the world?

Since Zhou Xuan has a red face, then Uncle Liu has a white face.

Great leaders are always amiable and approachable.

The boss is the most evil villain.

Zhou Yi and the others followed Zhou Xuan all the time, even if they did not allow themselves to follow, they would hide and wait nearby.

"Get in the car!"

Zhou Xuan nodded and boarded the carriage.

The carriage bumped and a layer of mattress was laid, but it was not so tiring.

Ragged pedestrians can be seen faintly on the road.

The pedestrian had a sallow complexion and a huge abdomen. It seemed that he had eaten something that was not easy to digest.

The year is not good.

Where there is a lack of water, there is drought, and where there is no shortage of water, there are floods.

During this time, Zhou Xuan saw a large number of refugees rushing to the bustling places.

A large group of refugees gathered outside Wannian County.

Zhou Xuan gave porridge outside the city, which was considered a small contribution.

Of course, this is also a drop in the bucket.

It all depends on how the officials handle it.

"The world is not peaceful!" Zhou Xuan thought to himself.

The barbarians in the west are in chaos, and the grasslands in the north are about to move.

Even the Southwest Cave Master dared to kill officials and cause chaos.

15 years in Taian.

Tai'an Tai'an.

The country is not peaceful, and the people are uneasy.

The 280-year dynasty is estimated to be going downhill.

Zhou Xuan didn't want great chaos in the world.

I just hope that Emperor Tai'an will govern the world well, the weather will be smooth, and the sea and rivers will be clear.

Zhou Xuan did not have the ability and courage to change the world and open up a new world.

Zhou Xuan was very self-aware about this.

no matter what world.

Which one with this ability is not a contemporary hero?

A wage earner with a salary of less than [-], who can't even compete with the immediate manager.

When you come to the ancient world, you will be able to dominate the situation, chatting and laughing with famous ministers and generals?

Just kidding, the struggle in the modern world is within the rules, but the ancient world is much more dangerous, if you are not careful, your family will be destroyed.

What Zhou Xuan can be sure of is that if he has unrealistic ideas, he may not survive three episodes.

"My lord, please do me a favor! The little one hasn't eaten for three days!"

"My lord, my youngest daughter, Twelve, only needs a bag of rice..."

Seeing the luxurious carriages approaching, the refugees on the side of the road did not dare to step forward to stop them, but only shouted feebly from the side.

Zhou Xuan lifted the curtain of the carriage, and said to Zhou Yi: "Distribute some food, tell them, there is Zhou's family outside the city giving porridge."

"Yes! Sir!"

When I saw this group of people on Monday, I felt a sense of sympathy.

Once upon a time, they were begging along the road like this, and there was a meal without a meal.

It's just that I am much luckier than them, being taken in by Zhou's family, and no longer suffering from hunger.

The carriage was going all the way, and the porridge canopy could be seen faintly on the road.

There are the Cao Gang, the Zhou family, and some big families and officials.

thump!
Suddenly, a disheveled figure fell to his knees in front of the carriage.

"My lord, the villain is wronged!"

This person is unkempt and has no calluses on his hands and feet. He doesn't look like he has been working all year round.

"Bold!" shouted Monday.

Everyone drew out their scimitars, beware of plotting by villains around them.

"Liu Xiucai! Why are you crazy again, hurry up and don't offend the nobleman!"

An old man in neat clothes walked out beside him, followed by two strong men.

The three of them stepped forward to set up Liu Xiucai, who was the one blocking the carriage.

"Don't touch it!
"Liu Xiucai flung the three of them away, looking like a madman, revealing a face of less than 30 years old.

Liu Xiucai's face was covered with bruises, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and at this moment he kept kowtowing to Zhou Xuan, speaking incoherently.

"What's the grievance? Why didn't you report to the officials?" Zhou Xuan's voice came from the carriage.

Scholars probably do this often, otherwise the old man would not be so proficient.

"Hey, this honored guest is in Xiashantou Village. This scholar is a lunatic. Don't worry about him." The old man clasped his fists and smiled.

I don't know the identity of the person in the carriage, but judging from the outfit of the guards beside him, the identity should not be low.

The old man winked, and the strong man next to him set up the scholar.

Xiucai kept struggling and couldn't break free.

"Stop! Your Excellency is asking questions! Let you go?" Zhou Yi shouted loudly.

The old man looked distressed, thought for a while, and waved for the strong man to put him down.

"My lord, this scholar is insane, his words are unbelievable..."

"Thank you, my lord. My lord has a long life, and my life is longer than Nanshan. There are all kinds of lights and colorful lights..." Liu Xiucai looked excited.

This Liu Xiucai may have been stimulated, and he spoke incoherently, crying for a while, and laughing for a while.

Zhou Xuan probably understood the meaning.

Liu Xiucai has a family of three, an eight-year-old daughter, and lives happily.

Later, his wife became pregnant and died of dystocia due to a mistaken belief in a quack doctor.

Liu Xiucai reported to the police, but was imprisoned for half a month under the pretext of picking quarrels and provoking troubles. After that, her daughter also died.

Zhou Xuan probably heard such a process, but he couldn't understand the details, and was mixed with a lot of talking to himself.

But probably the meaning was expressed.

"How did his daughter die?" Zhou Xuan looked at Muramasa.

The village official showed his indignation and said: "Before Xiucai was arrested, his daughter was ill. It is said that Xiucai begged the master and the servants to help take care of her daughter... Maybe the master forgot."

"And then?" Zhou Xuan understood in his heart.

"When Xiucai was released, everyone smelled bad, and there were scratches on the walls and door panels... Then Xiucai went crazy."

One of the relevant people was not punished, and no one believed the words of a lunatic.

Zhou Xuan sighed in his heart, and took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Write down what happened and affix your personal seal.

The official document was handed over to Tuesday and said: "Take him to the county magistrate Lu, and tell the county lieutenant Lu to investigate within three days. The relevant people must be punished. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me."

This matter is not within the scope of Zhou Xuan's authority, and the witnesses and evidences are there, and the county magistrate Lu knows what to do.

At the same time, he turned his head and said to Zhou Yi: "Return in three days. If something goes wrong with the scholar, you will be buried with him."

The latter sentence was said to Muramasa.

"Don't dare!" Hearing that Zhou Xuan knew the county magistrate, Muramasa's heart shuddered.

"Thank you, my lord, thank you, my lord!" Liu Xiucai seemed to be awake again.

Back home, there were rows of black carriages parked in front of the house.

The flag of the carriage was rattling, with a black background and white stripes, and the word "practice" was written on it.

(Please recommend tickets from all the old buddies, bang bang bang!)
