Chapter 227: Exiting the courtyard

The people surrounding the young family retreated to the roadside one by one. As they retreated, they protected the little girls who were traveling with them.

Xiao Yingzi held Shi Zelan's hand tightly, while Xiao Qiuhua held Shi Zelan's other arm.

The three of them followed the neighbor teenagers and stepped aside, watching Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu protect the young people from the family as they walked towards the road pointed by the official.

Shi Zelan was a little uneasy and listened carefully to some of the voices in front of him, and finally heard some useful words.

"The scholar from the south was almost stabbed with a knife."

"Ah, then who blocked the knife for him?"

"The official grabbed the assailant."< br>
“Such a vicious incident has never happened before.”

“Yes, don’t you remember that one year, a scholar in that inn gave another a croton, causing others to misunderstand? passed the imperial examination this year.”

After a while, Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu turned around and came back.

After hearing this, the young man sneered: "You have to keep an eye on the road. You won't meet people with such good tempers like us next time."

Shi Xiaoliu just stared coldly. They were looking at him, and young people from the neighborhood also gathered around him at this time.

After the young man lowered his head and ran away, the young people increasingly protected the little girl among them.

When the group of them returned to the street entrance, the sky gradually became brighter.

Xiao Qiuhua trembled: "How can there be such a bad person?"

Xia Yu took advantage of the situation and took a step forward, just in time to rub the young man's feet. He jumped and was about to curse.

Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi saw the young man stoop and lean toward Xiao Qiuhua.

Xiao Qiuhua’s expression suddenly changed, and Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi dragged her towards the crowd.

Just one step away can't stop those who are interested from approaching.

They found Shi Zelan and his party and said, "There are too many people. Let's go back now."

As the group of them walked back, it was naturally not that smooth. From time to time, they were scolded: "Why are you crowding?" "

The young man could only shout: "You walk well." "

"We can't walk?

You still can’t walk, and you keep coming closer. What do you want to do? ”

The two of them reached out and pulled Xiao Qiuhua back almost at the same time, just in time to avoid the man's upside down body.

When the man saw that the test failed, he reached out to slap Xiao Qiuhua on the face.

Xiao Qiuhua was so frightened that she could not walk. Xiao Yingzi and Shi Zelan almost dragged her forward.

Xiao Qiuhua walked to the front unintentionally, and Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi were two steps behind her.

Shi Zelan whispered: "With us here, he can't survive."

Everyone followed closely and waited until they got out of this street to count the number of people who came together. "

"Can you walk? "

Xiao Yingzi said directly: "What are you afraid of? There are so many of us, does he dare?

He just thought you were alone, that's why he dared to act so arrogantly. ”

Xiao Qiuhua kept holding on to Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi’s hands, and they simply sent her home.

When Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi walked back, she said to Shi Zelan: "Why do I think Xiao Qiuhua's luck is not very good this year?"

Shi Zelan glanced at her: "I think she is very lucky. , It's the kind of good luck that turns bad luck into good luck."

Xiao Yingzi thought about it seriously and smiled: "Xiao Lanzi, you are right, she will definitely be lucky this year. It’s a wonderful marriage.”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and then went home.

Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu were sitting in the yard. Shi Zelan entered the yard. She asked: "Did I close the yard door?"

"Close it."

Shi Xiaoliu was very sure. In response, Shi Zelan closed the courtyard door, walked to them and sat down.

"Do you feel that this year's imperial examination is not going well?"

Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu nodded at the same time and asked Shi Zelan: "Do you feel the same way?"
< br>

"You escorted that brother into the examination room, and I felt something was wrong.

Later I heard that a candidate was almost stabbed with a knife, and at that time I felt that this was so mysterious.

After all, the officer is guarding the road. How stupid can one be to stab someone in front of the officer?”

“We didn’t find anything strange after we entered.”< br>
Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu followed the young man inside. When the door of the examination room was opened to admit the candidates, they also carefully felt the atmosphere around them and found nothing inappropriate.

After the three of them thought about it carefully, they felt that maybe they were overthinking something.

They quickly calmed down and went back to their rooms to practice.

The next day, they decided to go to the mountains, so they set off before it got dark.

When the three young men came over, they all looked disappointed when they saw the lock on the courtyard door.

On the evening of the third day, brother and sister Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu returned home with nothing in their hands.

When I met neighbors and asked about it, they smiled and said: "The Taoist temple free clinic outside the city has used up all the medicinal herbs, so we sent the medicinal herbs to the Taoist temple."

They did send part of the medicinal herbs to the Taoist temple, and they also I asked Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng for their opinions.

Decheng Zhenren said that they will not return for the time being.

Zhenzheng Zhenzhen asked about Shi Zelan's cultivation situation, and Shi Zelan told him about the problems encountered in the cultivation of spiritual consciousness.

He told Shi Zelan some solutions as he saw them. He said to Shi Zelan: "When you leave the sect, the curse's restrictions on you will be much lessened."

Shi Zelan nodded in agreement and told Master Shan Zheng about sending people into the examination room that day.

Zhenzheng Zhenzheng showed no surprise after hearing this. He smiled and said to Shi Zelan: "We have heard some old things from the master these days. Some scholars are jealous and will not tolerate people who are better than him to come forward. .

As a result, some of them will do wrong things, and some of them will be able to avoid disasters, and they will also have their own good luck."

Shi Zelan listened to the words of Master Shan Zheng. There was no look of surprise on his face.

For a person who has heard of poisoning cases in famous universities, these things are really trivial and not worth discussing.

Shanzheng Zhenren thought that Shi Zelan's temperament was calmer again, and said to her with a smile: "Sister Lan, you are still a child, you don't need to think too much."

Siblings Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu were replying On the way to the city, we naturally discussed things like the unpredictable nature of people's hearts.

So when they met the neighbors on their way home, they naturally mentioned the fact that the Taoist temple had no medicinal herbs in stock.

After hearing this, the neighbors lamented that Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng were rare good people, and asked when they would come back.

Shi Xiaoliu sighed: "My master and uncle are busy going up the mountain to pick herbs these days, and they will not be back for the time being.

They know that you all take good care of us, and that the three of us, brother and sister, are not nosy people. ”

Neighbors also felt that Shi Xiaoliu and the others were not busy. Except for going out to the city to pick herbs in the mountains, the three of them rarely went out of the yard.
