Chapter 246 [Similarities between Humans and Rats]

"Husband, do you really want to leave? Does the husband really bear to leave us mother and son behind? A young woman in her twenties looked at her husband with tears in her eyes, hoping to keep him who was about to leave for him. Go to the net --.7-K--o-m. Kirin oM

Li Tonggu looked at his heartbroken wife and his two four-year-old sons with reluctance, and his tears flowed silently, but he quickly wiped away his tears and said: "Qiongniang, I have to leave for my husband, how can I live in obscurity, how can I die in a foreseeable ending, people should pursue something, don't worry!" As a husband, you will definitely let your mother and son enjoy the glory and wealth, I have asked my uncle for the affairs of the family, if Qiongniang has any difficulties, just tell my uncle, if you are short of money, you can also borrow some ...... from my former colleagues"

"Daddy......" The two little boys ran over and hugged Li Tonggu's thighs, "Daddy, don't go...... We don't want Daddy to leave......"

Li Tonggu's heart was also reluctant, but he was obviously determined, separated the two crying sons, turned over on the horse, and whipped away without looking back.

Yangxia City is close to the border of Wei and Chu, personnel and trade exchanges are very prosperous, Li Tonggu led the horse to look at Yangxia City, his heart was full of mixed feelings, after he left home, he rode a horse to the east, wanted to go to the Lanling of Qi to find the academic master Xun Qing, hoping to learn useful talents from Xun Qing, but unfortunately the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and when he arrived at the border of Chu and Qi, he knew that Xun Qing had gone to Wei, for the ideal in his heart, he did not hesitate to choose to go to Wei, but at this time the problem came out, his travel expenses have been exhausted, There was nothing left but the old horse beside him, and there were two paths in front of him, one was to turn back immediately, go home to reunite with his wife and young son, and continue to make a living as the keeper of the grain depot, and the other was to sell horses and make up some money to move forward, these two choices made him confused, and he didn't know how to go.

"People are not virtuous, like rats! in the ears of the place. Li Tonggu remembered what he had said a few days ago, his heart for study became more and more firm, and he resolutely sold the horse to a family in Yangxia City, and bought dry food with all the money he earned.

After Yangxia City, Li Tonggu really encountered the test, no horse only walked on his feet, not only the journey was slow, but his feet were out of the blood blister, the kind of piercing pain made him almost unbearable, and the other is danger, the border of Wei and Chu is a deep mountain and old forest, although there is a path for pedestrians to walk out, but the wolf howl and tiger roar heard from time to time make him frightened, and he can only walk a short distance every day.

"Water ......" Li Tonggu saw a stream flowing not far away, his heart was relieved, he had not drunk water for a day, and his mouth festered just by eating dry food, that stream was undoubtedly the kindest stream he had ever seen in his life.

"Goo dong goo dong...... Li Tonggu sank his head into the stream, drank a full breath of water in one go, and when he looked up, he smelled a fishy smell, and the pungent fishy smell made him almost nauseous.

"Ahh Li Tonggu couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the beast that appeared behind him, that kind of beast seemed like a tiger rather than a tiger, like a leopard rather than a leopard, in short, it was a fierce beast he had never seen, but he knew that this beast was definitely coming at him. Kirin oM

Li Tonggu knew that his little life was going to be over, the beast's fangs and cold eyes, he believed that as long as he moved, he would definitely be bitten to death by the beast, and then torn to pieces to become the beast's lunch.

"Haha...... In vain I wanted to become a famous figure in the world, and in vain I also wanted to give my wife and children glory and wealth, but I didn't expect that it would be a bamboo basket to draw water, and today it will become the food of the beast...... Haha" Li Tonggu was too frightened, but he was not afraid, and he laughed wildly.

"The courage is good, the thinking is calm enough, and the most interesting thing is that you can laugh." Zhao Kuo saw a man and a beast confronting each other by the stream, and felt very interesting.

When Li Tonggu heard the human voice, he found that there was a person standing behind the beast, a horse, that person was only twenty years old, handsome, and his clothes were also very gorgeous, and the horse beside him was like a dragon, and there were two sledgehammers hanging immediately, giving him an incomparable momentum, which made him suppress his fear of the beast.

"Little brother, run, there are beasts here." Li Tonggu didn't want anyone to accompany him to his life, that person had horses by his side, and he should be able to escape!

The beast also saw Zhao Kuo and Lightning, in its eyes, the taste of horse meat must be better than human flesh, the beast's eyes that flashed green widened suddenly, and one rushed forward and went straight to Lightning's neck.

Although Lightning is a horse, Lightning is also considered to be experienced in a hundred battles, and its courage is not comparable to that of ordinary horses, I saw it quickly turn around, and its hind hooves flew up and kicked straight at the rushing beast.

The beast apparently did not expect that its predator would be intimidating at all, and the other man's hooves flew so fast that before its sharp teeth could bite it, the horse's hooves had already landed on it, and then kicked it into the stream with a strong force.

Zhao Kuo saw that the lightning was still chasing the beast, patted the lightning on the neck, and said, "Forget it!" I've never seen that kind of beast, maybe it's a precious animal, but don't go extinct under your hooves, let it go! ”

"Herod......" Lightning snorted quite reluctantly, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhao Kuo's obstruction.

Li Tonggu didn't expect one of the other party's horses to kick the beast away, and after the danger was lifted, he found that his small clothes were soaked with sweat, and after making up his mind, he came to Zhao Kuo and said, "Thank you for saving your life." ”

Zhao Kuo waved his hand and said: "You shouldn't die, my mount needs to drink water, otherwise we won't be able to meet you, why don't you take the big road?" Although this path is a shortcut, there are many wild beasts. ”

Li Tonggu sighed and said: "I want to go to Daliang of Wei to study, but I have no choice but to exhaust it, I just want to go to Daliang as soon as possible, this shortcut can save ten days of time, and I can't help it!" ”

Zhao Kuo knew that in the Warring States Period, a hundred schools of thought contended, and the style of study was very prosperous, and it seemed that the student in front of him wanted to learn from a famous teacher.

Zhao Kuo smiled and said: "It's rare that you are so determined to learn, this ingot of gold will be given to you!" I hope you can succeed in your studies. Zhao Kuo had a good impression of the student in front of him, who was no more than two years older than himself, and the other party's firm state of mind was very good, he took out a gold ingot from his arms and handed it to the other party.

Li Tonggu secretly wondered in his heart, is this the so-called catastrophe that will have a blessing if you don't die? I am worried about the travel expenses, and I met a noble person who gave gold, is it that God also feels that he is sincere and wants to give himself some help!

Li Tonggu is not a pedantic person, so he took the gold and said: "The grace of the strong man's gift of gold will be remembered in my heart, and I will definitely return it a thousand times in my lifetime." ”

Zhao Kuo didn't take the other party's words to heart, and said: "You want to go to Daliang, we can still walk along the way for a day or two, let's go together!" ”

Li Tonggu happily agreed, with a bodyguard like Zhao Kuo, he couldn't ask for it! His eyes saw that there were two sledgehammers hanging on the mount, and he didn't think that the hundreds of pounds of sledgehammers were the weapons of the mount.

Zhao Kuo didn't want to eat the dry food, so he had already hunted a few hares and pheasants in the woods, and immediately set up a fire to roast the meat.

Li Tonggu almost didn't know the taste of meat in March, just like the sage Confucius, and he didn't wait to eat ready-made, but picked up a lot of dry wood for barbecue.

The aroma of the meat slowly overflowed, Li Tonggu sniffed, and saw that the young man took out a small bag, and at a glance, he knew that it was condiments such as salt, and when those condiments were sprinkled, the taste became even more fragrant.

Zhao Kuo handed the roasted pheasant to the other party and said, "Eat!" ”

Li Tonggu held the chicken in his hand, and had the urge to cry, and said: "Are you confused, Cai Li Tonggu in the bottom, I don't know the name of the strong man?" ”

Zhao Kuo said a name casually, he estimated that now he has become the most wanted criminal in the Warring States, and the strategy he left for Huang Xie Huang Xie must be used to alleviate the contradiction with the magnates of Chu State, in order not to make trouble for himself and the people around him, he did not say his real name.

Li Tonggu had a pheasant in his belly, and his spirit came up at once, and after he ate a hare, he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The fragrance of meat is known today!" ”

Zhao Kuo knew that Li Tonggu might be hungry, and said with a smile: "There is a good saying, when you are hungry, eating bran is as sweet as honey, and eating honey when you are full is not sweet, the environment can change the state of mind, and it can also change a person." ”

Li Tonggu recalled Zhao Kuo's words, and applauded: "The words of the strong man have reached my heart, I only realized this truth some time ago, and I made up my mind to change. ”

Zhao Kuo sighed and said, "What do you mean by this?" Zhao Kuo didn't expect to pull out the mouse all of a sudden.

"I used to be the clerk in charge of grain in the county, once I went to the toilet and saw rats eating human feces, and I was scared away when I saw them, and then I saw rats stealing grain in the granary, and they were not afraid of people at all, and they were very comfortable, so I thought, if a person wants to become famous, he should be like a rat stealing grain in the granary, he can do whatever he wants, and enjoy himself......" Li Tonggu said his experience.

"Are you Lees? Li Si of Cai in Chu State? Zhao Kuo is no stranger to this story, Sima Qian wrote this story in detail when he wrote the historical records, and Li Si was inspired by the rat to chase fame and fortune and make a career.

Li Tonggu was stunned, he was stunned: "How can a strong man know that my tuba is Li Si below, and the word Tonggu is above." Li Si thinks this is a bit ridiculous, he is just a small scribe, and he is not yet famous in the world!

Zhao Kuo was stopped by Li Si's question, so he had to say that when he passed by in Shangcai, he had heard Li Si's name mentioned, especially the assertion about mice.

Li Si didn't expect the other party to hear what he said about mice, and said with a smile: "Let the strong man laugh, as the strong man said, the environment can change a person, in what status, what kind of thing to do, Li Si is really unwilling to nest in the granary to be a scribe for a lifetime, and to be a granster rat for people, so that this life is not in vain!" ”

Zhao Kuo's mouth opened slightly, he didn't expect that the other party was really Li Si, the first prime minister of China who assisted Qin Shihuang to dominate the world, which made Zhao Kuo extremely excited, and said, "Brother Li is going to study from Xun Qing?" Zhao Kuo doesn't want to let go of Li Si, although this character and his fate don't have much intersection, but since they have met, they can't be cheap Yingzheng, although Li Si is still an unheard person, although Qin Shihuang Yingzheng has not yet been born, but he wants to prevent that fateful encounter, Bai Qi is still there, he doesn't want to add variables to his fate.

Li Si nodded and said: "Yes, I want to learn the art of the emperor from Xun Qing, only by learning the knowledge can I have the ability to govern the country and level the world, and I can soar!" ”

"Then I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Brother Li." Zhao Kuo was determined to abduct Li Si away, and said: "Although Xun Qing is in Daliang at this time, he will not open a hall to teach apprentices, because he is already a confidant of Xinling Jun, how can he accept Brother Li as a disciple!" ”

Li Si really didn't know Xun Qing's situation, he only knew that Xun Qing went to Daliang after resigning from the Lanling Order of Qi State, and after listening to Zhao Kuo's words at this time, he said with a disappointed face: "Really? Alas! After three months of running in vain, I had no way to vote. "Please support genuine reading, support the author's creation, your one light click, warm my whole code word life."

"That's not, I know a good place to go, that person's knowledge is no worse than Xun Qing, I don't know if Brother Li is interested in going?" Zhao Kuo continued to play the next routine.

"Where?" Li Si was a little disheartened when he knew Xun Qing's situation, and when he heard Zhao Kuo say that there was still something worth learning by himself, he immediately stared at Zhao Kuo and asked.

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "Zhao Guo, Lin is similar." Zhao Kuo wanted to talk about Mao Sui, but Mao Sui's fame obviously couldn't be compared with Lin Xiangru, so he had to take Lin Xiangru out to support the façade.

Li Si shook his head and said, "It's difficult! I went to Xun Qing because Xun Qing is not rich and noble, and he may accept me as a disciple, if Xun Qing does things by Xinlingjun's side, there is no need to think about it, and Lin Xiangru is the Xiangbang of Zhao State, how can he accept me as a disciple, it would be good not to chase me away. ”

Zhao Kuo laughed and said: "What Brother Li said is true, if Brother Li goes alone, he will definitely gain nothing, but if I lead Brother Li there, Lin Xiangru will not only accept Brother Li as a disciple, but will definitely teach carefully." ”

Li Si's head was not stupid, and after listening to Zhao Kuo's words, he asked, "Does the strong man recognize Lin Xiangru?" "Li Si is eager to learn, or the pursuit of utilitarianism is very firm, although Lin Xiangru's knowledge may not be as good as Xun Qing, but his reputation is indeed much greater than Xun Qing, and it is also a good choice to study under Lin Xiangru.

Zhao Kuo nodded and said: "Please forgive Brother Li for hiding something before, Zhao Kuo, the son of Zhao Guoma Fujun, should be able to speak in front of Lin Xiangru......

"Zhao Kuo? Ma Fujun Zhao Luxury, Ma Fuzi Zhao Kuo? Although Li Si is a small scribe, he is no stranger to Zhao Hao's father and son, who have been in the limelight in recent years, and when he heard that the person in front of him was Zhao Kuo, he was immediately stupid.
