Chapter 240: Now Too
For Tang Pidi, all the memories of Jizhou are related to the Four Pages Academy, and at such a young age, he went to the largest city in the north alone, and the only thing that accompanied him was books, which were courses, and other than that, he didn't seem to want to have anything to do with anyone.
Most of his memories of Jizhou are very monotonous, monotonous and a little boring.
The memories of Tang rivals left in Jiazitang are also the same monotonous, first, first, first, or first.
Everyone thinks that Don is a freak, and no matter what method you try to defeat him, it will eventually turn into failure.
He is like a loophole in the rules that should not exist in the academy, you feel that your effort is ten times that of his, and you feel that your talent is ten times that of his, but when you compete with him, you will always fail.
Xu Qinglin, whose eyes are above the top, has no sense of existence in front of Tang's rivals.
After leaving the academy, he went to the grassland, and the same is true on the grassland, those men on the grassland are not so easily convinced, and Tang Rival has become a rule loophole on the grassland.
What are Rules?
The rule in the academy is probably that all the disciples of the academy are almost from famous families, and they have already begun to receive a lot of education before they enter the academy, whether they love to learn or not, this kind of education is instilled in the family.
Without this knowledge, they would not be worthy of their pedigree, so their starting point is much higher than that of ordinary children.
If you have a good background, you have better knowledge and taste, so you have better grades, this is the rule of the academy, but Tang is a person who is outside the rules.
What are the rules on the steppe? Those children on the grassland began to learn to ride horses at the age of four or five, and at the age of seven or eight they could gallop on horseback, and the children of the Central Plains, who had never ridden a horse or even seen a war horse, could be compared with them?
This is the rule of the grassland, and unfortunately, after Tang Pi arrived on the grassland, he used his ability to tell those young people who grew up on horseback that you can't either, he has become a person outside the rules of the grassland.
What he wants to do, he must be the first.
Standing outside the gate of Jizhou City, Tang Pidi looked up at the huge Jizhou inscription, thinking that he was probably going back to the academy again, which was the most direct way to find Li Qi.
The soldiers guarding the city gate glanced at Tang Pi and stretched out his hand.
Naturally, his meaning was very clear, the guide, the voucher, and the silver.
Don's gaze retracted from the height, and he looked at the soldier, just looking, his eyes calm.
After staring at each other for about a few breaths, the soldier's expression changed dramatically.
At first, he looked at Tang Pi hostilely, and he wondered if this person was a fool who actually looked at me like this.
After two breaths, the soldier began to panic, very panicked, feeling that he might be unlucky, Tang Pidi obviously did not have a brocade coat on his body, but he felt that Tang Pidi had an indescribable extravagance.
"You ......"
The soldier swallowed and spat: "Childe, please show me the identity credentials and the road." ”
Tang Pidi replied: "I'll go to Prince Yu's mansion." ”
Miraculously, the soldier immediately got out of the way.
Tang Pidi took out the road lead, and this road guide was fake, and he did it himself, because he came from outside the Guan.
The soldier didn't even look and had already moved out of the way.
"Childe walks slowly."
Tang Pidi snorted, did not thank him, led his horse into Jizhou City, he did not feel that he gave the soldier much oppression, but the soldier felt that if he said one more word, his head might fall to the ground.
It's amazing.
Leading the horse and walking on the streets of Jizhou City, at this time Tang Pidi found that he was so unfamiliar with Jizhou, and he came to Jizhou when he was young
Lived in the Four Pages Academy, and almost never left the gate of the Academy.
Looking at the buildings on both sides of the street, watching the people coming and going in Jizhou City, he couldn't find any memories related to himself.
At this moment, he saw the notice posted on the wall next to him, led the horse and looked at it, and his eyes were in a trance.
The people around him were saying that this was an essay written by Dean Gao, but Tang Pidi knew that it must not have been written by Dean Gao.
He turned to leave, already thinking about whether there would be any danger for Dean Gao to be detained in the palace by Prince Yu.
If so, what should you do.
Walking along the street to the academy, he still retains the academy's uniform, but it no longer fits, but he has been reluctant to throw it away.
Walking to the gate of the academy, Tang Pidi politely asked the gatekeeper of the academy about Li Qi, and the janitor looked Tang Pidi up and down, and then shook his head and said: "The academy is in class now, outsiders can't enter and exit at will, you can wait outside the door if you look for Li Gongzi." ”
Tang Pidi didn't say anything, led the horse to a short distance, and sat down on the side of the road, thinking that the academy was still in normal classes, and it seemed that Dean Gao would be back soon, so don't worry too much.
Then he saw a carriage coming from a distance, it was the cart of the academy canteen to go out to buy vegetables, Tang Pidi could still recognize it, the woman sitting in the cart was called Aunt Wu.
He looked at Aunt Wu, and Aunt Wu was also looking at him.
After looking at each other for a while, Aunt Wu looked away, and she didn't know why, she was a little flustered.
Tang Pidi got up and walked over to intercept the carriage, and the coachman frowned after glancing at Tang Pidi, "Who are you?" Why the roadblock? ”
Tang Pidi did not answer his words, but looked directly at Aunt Wu, who did not dare to look at him.
Tang Pidi asked, "Who are you going to harm?" ”
Aunt Wu's face changed greatly, and at the same time, the driver's face changed greatly.
Tang Pidi said in a flat tone: "Aunt Wu, you are a very kind person, if you are coerced, you can nod." ”
Aunt Wu turned her head and didn't dare to look at her, her face was as white as paper, without a trace of blood.
"Who the hell are you!"
The coachman jumped down from the carriage, pointed his whip at Tang Pi and said angrily: "What are you going to do!" ”
Tang Pidi pondered for a moment, and said to himself: "It's you who shows flaws, you don't look like a coachman." ”
The coachman was furious, and the whip was whipped down towards Don, and in the next breath, the coachman fell to the ground, and he was slapped by Don and fell to the ground on the neck, leaving only a slight moan.
Tang Pidi looked at Aunt Wu and asked, "Who is he trying to kill?" ”
Aunt Wu didn't dare to speak, but began to cry.
Tang Pidi stretched out his hand: "I'll help you down and go home with you." ”
The gatekeepers of the academy were stupid, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
Half an hour later, at Aunt Wu's house, the four of them fell to the ground, and Tang Pidi sat on the platform steps in the courtyard and watched them.
"Doesn't anyone want to say it first?"
He asked.
The four men lay there, unable to even stand up.
Tang Pidi looked at Aunt Wu and asked, "You don't know who is trying to harm him, they just forced you to poison the food that Li Qi wants to eat, is that so?" ”
Obviously, Aunt Wu just told him that these people wanted to kill Li Qi, but Tang Pidi guessed the words of those people very accurately, they didn't say who they were doing things for, only said that if Aunt Wu didn't do this, they would kill her family.
"Aunt Wu, if you do this, they will also kill your family."
Tang Pidi got up and looked at Aunt Wu and said a word, then got up and walked in front of one of the men, he squatted down, put two fingers against the man's heart and asked, "Who is it?" ”
The man's face turned ugly with fright, but he gritted his teeth and didn't say anything.
Then Tang's two fingers slowly pierced into his heart, and no matter how he wailed and screamed, those two fingers did not stop until the man's wailing stopped, and the person turned into a corpse.
Then Tang Pidi walked up to the second person and squatted down, put two fingers against the man's heart and asked, "Are you willing to say?" ”
The man immediately replied: "Xu family, Xu Qinglin!" ”
Tang Pidi felt that this name was a little familiar, and said after a while: "It seems to have some impressions." ”
Aunt Wu reminded beside her: "Tang Gongzi, when you were in the academy, you were always the first in the Jiazitang school, and Xu Qinglin was the second, and his family was very powerful......
Don Pi's impression seems to be a little bigger, just some, because why should he care who the second is?
So he didn't pay much attention at that time, Xu Qinglin regarded him as his biggest opponent, but Tang Pi didn't care who was second at all.
"How powerful is the Xu family?"
"In Jizhou City, it can be ranked in the top three."
After listening to this, Tang Pidi nodded: "It seems to be a little difficult." ”
Then he stabbed the killer who answered his question with two fingers, and the other two were already running, but they couldn't even stand up, how could they run?
After two breaths, Tang Pidi looked at Aunt Wu's husband and said: "You dispose of the corpses and pull them out of the city with a carriage, they must have the Xu family's waist card on them, you search for it, use the Xu family's waist card to go out of the city, and the city gate guards will not stop or check." ”
He looked at Aunt Wu again and said, "Go back to the academy, see Li Qi tell him about the matter, let him not go to bed so early tonight, I will go to him at night, maybe a little later, or I may go before dark." ”
Then Tang Pidi picked up his package, walked out a few steps and turned back to ask Aunt Wu, "Do you have anything to eat?" ”
Aunt Wu hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes." ”
She ran to the kitchen to get the food out, Tang Pidi looked at it, the buns in this basket were all bigger than Xu Qinglin's impression, because this was the bun he had eaten for a long time in the academy.
Aunt Wu's craftsmanship, of course, was also brought back by Aunt Wu from the academy cafeteria.
Tang Pidi directly took the basket over, carried the basket on his back and went out like this, eating as he walked.
Half an hour later, Don stopped at the door of a blacksmith's shop, and he stood there watching, and the blacksmith smiled at him and asked what he wanted to buy.
Tang Pidi looked at it for a while, and found that there was not even a decent thing in the blacksmith shop, so he was a little disappointed.
"Friends on the rivers and lakes?"
Tie Jia suddenly lowered his voice and asked, and then said in a softer voice: "Do you want to buy a knife?" ”
Tang Pidi laughed, shook his head and said, "Don't buy a knife, I want you to help me fight another weapon." ”
The blacksmith said: "There are no eighteen kinds of weapons that I can't fight, as long as you give enough silver, I can beat the Qinglong Glaive for you, but there is one thing, you can't say that I bought it here." ”
Tang Pidi looked at the blacksmith's fire, directly reached out and took a piece of charcoal from it, squatted on the ground and drew a figure.
"I'm going to build this."
The blacksmith looked at it for a long time, then asked tentatively, "Chopsticks?" Do you want one or a pair? ”
"One."
Tang Pidi replied: "It's not chopsticks, it's an iron drill, three feet three, the handle is the thickest, probably as thick as the hammer handle in your hand, and it is getting thinner and thinner, and the front edge should be as sharp as a needle." ”
The blacksmith swallowed and foamed, feeling that he had a nervous breakdown.
He asked, "When?" ”
Tang Pi took out a fist-sized silver ingot from his backpack and put it on the table: "Today, I'm waiting to get it." ”
