Under Zhou Ting's tidying, Li Xin had dinner, although it is said that this place lacks all kinds of condiments in this era, but I have to say that fresh venison is indeed delicious. After dinner, under the big tree in front of Zhou Tong's house, there was already a circle of people, all of whom had come to listen to Li Xin's story.

Li Xin's eloquence is not very good, but the emphasis is that he uses all the vernacular, unlike those old masters, who are not knowledgeable, or quote scriptures, which makes people only drowsy when they listen to it. In the past month, Li Xin's audience is not only those young people, but also some elderly villagers, who will also come to listen to it, and regard it as a leisurely thing after dinner.

"Where did you go yesterday?" While picking his teeth, Li Xin came to the big tree, and everyone spontaneously dispersed, giving up the stone bench in the middle, and he sat down unceremoniously. glanced at the people around him, and then said.

"Oh, yesterday you said that the Marquis of Huaiyin was ordered to attack Zhao State, and he hasn't passed the well yet!" Hearing this, Li Erhei hurriedly replied.

"Well, let's move on! It is said that the Marquis of Huaiyin has just set up camp, and there is a report ...... Malay! Li Xin nodded, and after thinking about it carefully, he said slowly.

The fact that the last battle is not too long in itself, so the whole story is almost over after a while. Of course, there are some conjectures of later generations, which people at this time did not know, and Li Xin also joined in.

"Ah! Back to the water, think what people dare not think, what people dare not do, Huaiyin Hou is really a genius! When the whole story was told, everyone around him praised him and admired Han Xin. Especially Li Erhei, he stood up directly, smashed his fist on the stone table in front of him, and said excitedly.

"Why are you so excited, you are not the Marquis of Huaiyin!" Seeing this, Zhou Tong on the side pursed his lips and said.

"Hmph, although I am not the Marquis of Huaiyin, but I also have the ambition to level the world, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely learn the story of the Marquis of Huaiyin, fight against the water, and fight with the enemy Three Lilies!" Hearing this, Li Erhei immediately said angrily.

"Okay, okay, don't fight, it's okay to listen to the story, and don't take it too seriously. This backwater formation sounds simple, but not everyone can use it, one is not good, but it hurts yourself, you can't do it rigidly! It's all gone, go back and rest! Seeing that the two of them looked like they were throwing off their arms and doing a fight, Li Xin quickly stood up and stopped it.

Hearing him say this, the two stopped arguing, and everyone around them dispersed.

In fact, it's still early, it is estimated that it is only about eight o'clock, if it was at this time before, where would Li Xin go to sleep! But after all, it's different now, and after a month, I'm gradually getting used to going to bed early and getting up early, just like everyone else. However, as soon as he walked into the back room, he had to stop first, because Zhou Tong and his father were sitting in the hall and stopped him.

"Uncle Zhou, haven't you rested so late?" Li Xin hurriedly stepped forward to compose a compilation and said.

Zhou Fang, whose name is Wentai, is different from his son, he looks like a middle-aged man who is dry and thin. However, perhaps because of the pain of losing his son and wife, his hair has turned a lot gray, but his actual age is only in his forties. At this time, sitting on the stool, wearing a simple but very neat and clean coarse cloth clothes, the beard is neatly combed, and the appearance of not smiling is quite awe-inspiring.

During this time, he stayed with Zhou Tong, so Li Xin knew a lot about the affairs of the Zhou family. The Zhou family was originally a Jingzhao person, and Zhou Fang also read poetry and books when he was young, and he was quite literate and hyphenated. Who would have thought that after the Shizhao Rebellion, the entire north was almost a pot of porridge, and the big family was also defeated.

In order to escape the war, he had to flee with his family, and finally chose to settle down in Huashan, which is not too far from Jingzhao. It is precisely because of his knowledge that he is very respected by everyone in the village, and he was elected by everyone to be the leader of this village.

Since living in Zhou's house, Li Xin and him have not seen each other, knowing that Zhou Fang's temper is not bad, but he just has a straight face, maybe he is holding the decency of a scholar! On weekdays, Li Xin respects him well, and he has a lot of courtesies, so in general, he and Zhou Fang get along well.

"Li Lang! In the past month, I have heard you tell a lot of stories, and you are not like ordinary people, have you ever studied poetry before? Zhou Fang nodded lightly and motioned for him to sit down on the side.

Today, the stool has gradually spread all over the world, especially in the north. Although it is not like the kind of chair in later generations, for Li Xin, this is already an acceptable thing, if it is said to be kneeling, he will definitely refuse, it is better to stand. When he heard this, he was not polite, so he sat down on the side.

"Don't hide it from Uncle Zhou, I used to study some when I was a child, but after wandering around, this study was slowly abandoned. So much so that now I can't even read all these words! Li Xin thought for a moment, and then replied cautiously.

He naturally knows the characters, but they are not the characters of this era, or the traditional characters of this era are quite difficult for him to read. As for the brush word, he is even less proficient, in case someone sees it later, it will inevitably arouse suspicion, so it is better to do a good job of foreshadowing it first.

"At your age, it is rare to have such knowledge, if Zhou Tong has such knowledge as you, I will be satisfied." Hearing this, Zhou Fang seemed to think of his own experience, and immediately showed a look of approval and said.

"Yes, if there is time in the future, the little nephew will continue to study, I heard that Uncle Zhou is rich in five cars, I wonder if you can give me some advice?" Li Xin put his mind at ease, thought about it, decided to strike while the iron was hot, and made a request. After all, if you want to survive in this era, you have to seize every opportunity to understand this era.

"The words of learning to be rich and five cars are too much! It's rare that you have such a self-motivated heart, if you have something to understand in the future, you can come to the old man! By the way, tomorrow you will go with Zhou Tong to the front to guard the mountain! Since you live in the village, this is also something you should do! Hearing the flattery, Zhou Fang showed a rare smile, and involuntarily reached out and stroked his beard, and said gently.

As a former tutor, he was naturally happy to see someone so motivated and eager to learn. What's more, instructing others to study seems to have made him more found a place to play his profession, and he is naturally willing to show his strengths.

"The little nephew understands, and he will go with Zhou Tong tomorrow!" Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and soon said respectfully.

"Go ahead! It's not early, so let's rest early! Zhou Fang looked at him, nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand, and got up first and walked into the room.

The Zhou family originally had only three rooms, plus the kitchen and toilet were connected. Originally, the two brothers of Zhou Tong lived in the same house, but since his eldest brother was gone, it happened that Li Xin and Zhou Tong lived together, which was also relaxed.

It's just that Li Xin really can't stand Zhou Tong, and when he sleeps at night, the sound of snoring can be described as earth-shattering. There was no way, he had to plug his ears so that he could barely sleep. It's been a month, but I still haven't used to it.

"Li Lang, what did Grandpa say to you?" Seeing him walk in, Zhou Tong asked curiously. At this time, people called themselves dad or grandpa, and when they first came here, Li Xin made a lot of jokes.

"It's nothing, I said that I would follow you to guard the mountain tomorrow! Remember to call me when you go! Li Xin didn't hide it either, and said directly.

"No problem, but the first time you go to guard the mountain, you will have to listen to me when the time comes!" Zhou Tong nodded and agreed without saying a word.

After a night without words, early the next morning, after Li Xin got up, he took the cooking cakes prepared by Zhou Ting, which were actually steamed buns, and set off all the way. In addition to the two of them, there were also a dozen or so other young people in the village, and as soon as he saw that everyone had brought food, Li Xin knew that this trip might not be too close.

Sure enough, after a long turn on the winding mountain road, they finally reached their destination. Li Xin didn't understand the meaning of the so-called guarding the mountain before, but at this time, he finally understood, it turned out that the guarding of the mountain was literal, and he really came to guard the mountain.

Li Xin is no stranger to the guarded place, because before he crossed, he walked in this place when he visited Huashan. In later generations, there was a scenic spot in Huashan called Wuliguan, which was this place. Of course, at this time, there are no plank roads on Huashan, let alone those Taoist temples, and the so-called pass is just in a dangerous place, and the earth and stone form a thick wall, blocking the passage up and down.

"See! This is the place where we guard the mountain, as long as we stay in this place, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to think of going up the mountain behind us and to the village where we live! Behind the stone wall, Zhou Tong said to him.

"Who are you trying to protect against?" Li Xin looked at the fact that there were already more than a dozen people lying there watching behind the stone wall, and couldn't help but be curious.

"There are many, like those defeated soldiers, bandits, especially the Qin soldiers under the mountain, you should pay attention to the most. These people all want to go into the mountains to grab food, if it weren't for this place, where would our village have a stable life! Zhou Tong pointed to the distance and said.

Hearing this, Li Xin understood. When I first played in Huashan, I saw this kind of thing on the introduction of Wuliguan. Whenever the world is turbulent, a large number of displaced people flock to Huashan to avoid disasters, and Wuliguan plays an important role in it. The enemies faced by each era are different, and the threat they face in this era is obviously from the former Qin regime in Guanzhong.
