Chapter 43: Young Guo Jia I
Mu Shan looked at Guo Jia, who was slowly untying the book, with fine beads of sweat on his face, and felt that under this weak appearance, there seemed to be an indescribable charm. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info looked at his thin body again, the patched cloth clothes, and couldn't help but feel a trace of pity for him, and said: "Little brother, it's been hard all the way, let's sit down and drink saliva for a while." ”
"Huh." Guo Jia hugged Shulou, nodded happily, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Mu, Xiaosheng is really a little thirsty, and I want to be cheeky and ask you for a drink." Brother Mu, take the liberty of asking, your burden was just given to you, right? ”
Mu Shan checked the burden in his hand and wondered, "Well, how do you know?" ”
Guo Jia's eyes showed a bright brilliance, faintly compared the morning light around him, and analyzed it eloquently: "Hehe, Brother Mu, you can see from the gap in your baggage that it contains a book. If you want to take it out to dry, the current sunlight is obviously not suitable; If you want to go far away, then you should at least decorate your baggage with clothes and dry food, so that your books and books are not exposed. If you want to take it with your friends, you don't need to pack them at all, just hug them. ”
Guo Jia saw Mu Shan's surprised expression in his eyes, and became more and more sure in his heart, and said eloquently: "In other words, you didn't take out these books from the house, but someone else gave them to you. Coupled with the fact that you looked like you were in a state of disgrace just now, Xiao Sheng dared to conclude that these books were given by your friends, and that something unpleasant should have happened between you, right? ”
Who is this child, who can see so many things from the books that emerge from the cracks in the baggage, and the expression I just had? This kind of perceptive insight and reasonable deduction ability is not even possessed by the elders of the village! Is he really just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old kid?
The more Mu Shan listened, the more shocked he became, and his eyes were shining as he stared at Guo Jia, as if he wanted to see his true face and see if he would be transformed by some old immortal monster: "Brother Guo, then you may guess what kind of book is in the baggage?" ”
Guo Jiaqing's eyebrows rose up, smiled freely, and said, "Brother Mu, this question is stumped for me." I'm not a prophet yet, so how can I know what kind of books you have in your baggage. ”
Mu Shan looked at Guo Jia's clean and pure smile, and secretly had a good impression of him in his heart, and said, "Hehe, little brother, don't stand outside, it's windy outside, come in and rest for a while." ”
Mu Shan put the burden on the wooden table, glanced at Guo Jia, and teased: "Little brother, look at your young age, how did you start the business of delivering letters for others." Aren't you afraid that the mountains and rivers will be far away and you will be lost? Or is it some bandit and robber on the road, who is murdered for money and abandoned in the wilderness? ”
"Brother Lao Mu is worried about me. The bandits and robbers saw my poor and sour appearance, and they were afraid that they would not bother to kill me. ”
Guo Jia looked around at the environment in the house and said, "It's better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles!" Only when you go out and walk, have seen the customs and customs of various places, the geographical environment, and broaden your horizons and mood, can you hide hills and valleys in your chest, otherwise no matter how much you learn, it is just talk on paper, flashy. Although he suffered a lot of hardships along the way, he also saw a lot of things in the world and learned a lot of truths that he never thought of. ”
"No wonder you look like you've been out there for a long time, so old and polite. Also, stop calling yourself a little student, at least don't call it that way in front of me, it sounds crepe and weird. Mu Shan put a bowl of water in front of Guo Jia and said, "Here, little brother, quench your thirst first." I'm going to cook dinner, and you'll stay here in the morning, eat, and then leave. ”
"Thank you!" Guo Jia took out two volumes of books from Shulou, handed them to Mu Shan, and said, "Brother Mu wait first, this is the bamboo slip that your friend asked me to bring, you can take a look first." ”
"My friend? This is the ......" Mu Shan picked up one of the bamboo slips, slowly unfolded it, and then smiled excitedly: "Changsheng, it's Changsheng's bamboo slips, this guy is finally willing to bring a letter back." ”
Mu Shan looked at the powerful and powerful carving on the bamboo slips, and the font opened and closed widely, and couldn't help but read: "Mu Shan, auspicious, Xiuniang, okay?" A certain in the Qinglong Altar, about to Yicheng down the mountain, will be able to return to the village in a few days, a little together. ”
Mu Shan said happily: "Hehe, Changsheng is going back to the village." This guy has been around for three years, and I don't know if he's as tall as me, and if he can recognize me when we meet again. ”
Mu Shan put down the bamboo slips, picked up another bamboo slip excitedly, looked at the flowing font on it, and couldn't help but have a warm smile on the corner of his mouth: "Fengxian, this little girl, a good girl, you have to learn any martial arts, really be careful if she can marry in the future." ”
"Big brother, is my mother's health good? The master is going to let me go down the mountain, if I want to go to Yangzhou, I will take the time to go home and take a look, take good care of my mother for me, if you dare to make my mother angry, be careful that I go back and beat you! Also, protect the showgirl, don't let people bully her, you know! ”
Mu Shan read it, and couldn't help but think of the naughty appearance of the phoenix fairy in his mind, and smiled happily: "I just learned a little kung fu and wanted to show off, but I don't know who it is when the time comes?" ”
Mu Shan carefully put away the two bamboo slips, put them in the bedroom, and then said to Guo Jia, who was sitting on the wooden chair resting: "Brother Guo Jia, you sit down for a while, and I will go to cook." ”
Mu Shan saw the burden on the table and said loudly: "Oh, by the way, there are two books in my baggage, it seems to be two military books, if you are interested, you can read it first, save yourself from boredom." ”
"Soldier's book?!" Guo Jia's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to grab the burden that Mu Shan put on the wooden table, turned out the two books inside, and said in surprise: "It's really a book of soldiers, it's actually "Three Strategies" written by Huang Shigong and "Liutao" written by Jiang Taigong, these two military books have been heard for a long time, I don't want to be able to see them today, it's really a blessing for three lives!" ”
"Yo, look at what makes you happy." Mu Shan looked at Guo Jia, who was still very polite and standardized just now, and in a blink of an eye, he looked like a child who had gotten his favorite toy, and couldn't help laughing out loud: "Brother Guo Jia, why are these two military books so rare?" ”
"I'm sorry, ...... Xiaosheng, oh, I just broke my rude." Guo Jia looked at Mu Shan, who came to his face, and then realized that he was a guest at someone else's house, and the book was also someone else's thing, and said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of Brother Mu's jokes, Xiaosheng, oh no, Guo Jia lost his father since he was a child, his family was poor, and he grew up with his mother's hand, so he didn't have any money left for me to study in the academy. Military books such as "Three Strategies" and "Liutao" can only be seen in some military generals' families, and they are very cherished and rare. ”
"Yes. It turns out that these two books are so precious and rare, but he prepared them for me and Changsheng. Hi ......" Mu Shan looked out of the door in a daze, and his mind once again flashed the figure of Jili when he left, only to feel very bitter and uncomfortable in his heart, sighed faintly, and said, "You watch slowly, I'll cook first." ”
Guo Jia was deeply immersed in the book, ignoring Mu Shan's words, his eyes kept swimming between the seal characters on the book, and he said something that people couldn't understand.
