Chapter 81 081: Junior Brother [Ask for monthly ticket]
"Master, this little friend is..."
The county guard forced out an ugly smile.
Although today is different from the past, I still couldn't help but tremble when I saw this former seat owner, my mouth was dry, my heart was flustered and I was short of breath.
The distinguished guest known as the "Master" followed the governor's gaze and looked at Ayan. A warm color slipped through the depths of his eyes. His rough and cracked palms gently touched the top of his head and said warmly: "His nickname is It’s called ‘Ayan’.”
Hearing the teacher calling him, Ayan took his attention away from the sandwich pastry, blinked, and looked at the teacher blankly, as if asking him what he was calling him for. The old man smiled and pointed in the direction of the county guard, and replied: "I'm not calling you, but your senior brother is curious."
Ayan tilted his head, looked at the county guard and then at the old man, and finally looked at Looking at the sandwich pastries on the plate, he frowned slightly.
The old man lived with Ayan for two years, and he had a better idea of his way of thinking, and said: "Your senior brother doesn't like these desserts, and I don't like them either, so these are all yours, no need to divide them."
The county guard secretly twitched his lips when he heard the address.
Calling the old man "Master" was just a reminder of his past friendship. He didn't expect that the old man would climb up the pole and even get him a cheap junior brother. Speaking of "junior brother", he vaguely felt that the child named "Ayan" was not very smart.
At least, he is not as clever as ordinary children.
The county guard showed appropriate concern.
"Master, junior brother, is he here?"
He pointed to his brain, is his intelligence impaired?
“Ayan is very good!”
Talking about Ayan, the old man's demeanor suddenly changed, and he could even vaguely see the fierceness and oppression in his vicissitudes of brows, which made the county governor feel like he was sitting on pins and needles. At the same time, he secretly despised himself for not living up to expectations. The old guy in front of him was already declining, so what was there to be afraid of?
The so-called forcefulness seemed to be just his illusion. When the old man looked at Ayan, there was infinite pity in his eyes. He sighed deeply and touched Ayan's bun: "He just had a hard life. He had a brain disease since he was born, which caused his mind to be very different from that of ordinary children."
The Sheriff: "???"
< br>For a moment, he thought there was something wrong with his ears.
Who does this host say is born with a brain disease?
"But, this child is not..."
Whose child with a brain disease can muster the courage and natural power at the age of six to cut off the legs of an adult man with a spear?
The unlucky Si Yan is still lying in the servants' courtyard.
The old man knew what he was going to say, and said without salt or coolly: "Although Ayan has a brain disease, he is not stupid, he just has a mental problem. He can learn everything he needs to learn, and he has no problem understanding it. , coupled with the excellent martial arts skills, it is not surprising that he has the courage to gather martial arts. ”
Even because of his mental state, he is more focused and hardworking than normal people. As long as it is a cultivation task ordered by the old man, he never complains and will not be lazy. Gratifying.
The old man didn't like others looking at Ayan in a strange way.
Especially those who once had a somewhat master-disciple relationship with him - such as this county guard. Because this only proves that the normal student he once was was not as good as A Yan, who has a brain disease.
The county guard twitched the corner of his mouth: "..."
He carefully selected the flattering words and said: "Is there a difference in mind? It's hard to tell, the junior brother has no talent at all. It's the best in the world, but the world is turbid now. , if the junior brother can always maintain this innocent heart, it is better than learning a skill but becoming a powerless dog."
Based on his understanding of this leader, Ayan probably is. His current reverse scale can only be praised but not revealed. After all, how can an old student like him, who is neither young nor fresh, compare with a "new student" who is only six years old, well-behaved, well-behaved, filial, obedient and cute?
The county guard praised Ayan and congratulated his master on his new disciple. After a brief exchange of greetings, he quietly inquired about the old man's purpose. But his little skill was not enough in the eyes of the old man. When he saw the old man's see-through eyes, the county guard felt terrified from the bottom of his heart.
I think back then, the old man was also a man of great influence in the court. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as a man of influence at that time. The leader of Xin State was able to secure the throne and once made Xin State stand out among the northwest countries. The leader also made great efforts.
Unfortunately, he had a smooth official career in his life, but he made a disgraceful exit at the end. He had an ugly quarrel with the leader of the Xin Kingdom, and it was hard to see that all officials in his line were ordered to suppress him.
Of course, excluding the county guard who had already emerged at that time, because he held the right thigh and continued to rise all the way up.
The old man was so angry that he resigned from his post and was said to have lived in seclusion in the countryside.
When the leader of the Xin Kingdom was suppressed by Zheng Qiao's army, he also spent a lot of effort to find the whereabouts of the old man, but to no avail until the Xin Kingdom was destroyed. The county guard thought he died in the chaos of war, but he didn't expect that this old guy was still alive and suddenly came to visit today.
It was a troubled time, and the county governor was also worried - the owner and the young boy were living in poverty, and he hoped that they were here to fight the autumn wind, and he could spend it with his own money. If there were other purposes, the county guard would have a headache. After all, killing a master is not a good reputation.
After some insinuation——
His hanging heart slowly fell to the ground.
It turned out that the old man was being hunted by unknown forces and was desperate. He didn't care, but he couldn't harm the innocent Ayan, so he was ready to find another way out and came all the way to Sibao County.
After hearing this, the county magistrate's heart was filled with joy.
I laughed while listening.
The "unknown force" is probably not related to Zheng Qiao. Even if Zheng Qiao doesn't think of this enemy for the time being, Zheng Qiao's bad legs may not be the case - after all, the person who scolded Zheng Qiao the most was the one who scolded Zheng Qiao the most. , one is the chief of the Yushitai, Yushi Zhongcheng, and the other is the outgoing chairperson. They can be called the two loudmouth kings of the Xin Kingdom.
Censor Zhongcheng cursed people, but at least he still had a fig leaf to cover up "official business". The host directly bombarded Zheng Qiao and the leader of the Xin Kingdom without distinction. In front of the leader of the Xin Kingdom, he greeted Zheng Qiao with all kinds of vulgar words. Just picking a sentence can make the experienced sister blush and snicker. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty were not surprised.
It even feels like it should be.
The elegance and easy-goingness of a literati cannot be seen in him.
In the early years, this leader dared to negotiate with the enemy at the border. During the talk, he could pick up a low table and smash the envoy's head to bleed. After being annoyed, he actually led his troops to attack the small northwest country. This also resulted in the capital being filled with protons sent by various forces, and the inner court of the Lord of Xin Kingdom being filled with protons sent by various small countries.
That Chu Ji from Chu State...
Seems to be the last "trophy"?
It is said that this man contributed to the disintegration of the Three Heroes of the Chu Kingdom. He has a strong record. No wonder the county guard is so frightened - even though this old lion is already in his twilight years and his teeth are too loose to bite prey, he is the king of beasts. The residual power is still there.
Zheng Qiao did not think of seeking revenge from his enemies for the time being.
But Zheng Qiao’s bad legs may not be the case.
The Sheriff is naturally one of the dog legs.
However, he did not dare to operate on his own leader.
He entertained them with good food and drinks, treating the two of them as poor relatives who came to enjoy the autumn breeze. After the banquet was over, he ordered his servants to withdraw two hundred taels of gold from the warehouse and send them to the guest house. The old man opened the red silk and looked at the plate of gold ingots that was served, his eyebrows slightly raised.
阍(hūn) dog: watchdog.
Seat Master: The titles like "Master Tian" and "Master Master" that Qishan used to call him before are similar, but the age is different. It is the honorific title given by students of a certain class to the examiner of that class.
PS: It lived up to expectations. I had a cold for two days. I woke up this morning with tonsillitis and a sore throat. I prescribed anti-inflammatory medicine before I had a fever. Otherwise, if you have a fever, you have to go for a nucleic acid test|ω`)
