Li Chengxun and Li Yesi were in a group, and when they transported grain to the north, they took the Meridian Valley Plank Road!

When Liu Bang retreated to Hanzhong, he burned the plank road to paralyze Xiang Yu, and it was this meridian road that was burned! Later, Wang Mang ordered to rebuild the meridian road and set up the meridian pass!

Speaking of these plank road natural insurance is also very interesting, the old saying goes, the plank road is thousands of miles, through Shu Han!

This plank road is the only way for soldiers to reach Shu Han, so every time there is a war, the plank road will inevitably be contested!

Those who are defeated will burn the plank road to protect themselves; Attacking the winner or during the Taiping period, the plank road will be rebuilt to pass Bashu!

Let's just say that this meridian road, Liu Bang took refuge in Hanzhong and burned it! Later, it was Wang Mang who ordered the restoration!

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Western Wei Dynasty rebelled, and in order to resist the suppression of the imperial court, it was burned! It was not restored until the Sui Dynasty!

It is precisely because of these wars that they have been burned down and rebuilt again and again, which has led to the diversion of these plank roads more than once!

This time to transport grain from the Meridian Road, Li Chengxun and Li Yesi worked together, and the two of them had a grain transportation team of 15,000, one in front of the road, and one in the back!

Due to the experience of thirty people when Jinhe River transported grain, several young people cherished these lives very much, and even if Shu Dao was in danger, human lives could not be filled!

Maybe in the past, they would have calculated the gains and losses when they encountered such a situation, because if they could save 100,000 people in the north with the loss of 100 people in the grain transportation team, it would undoubtedly be worth it!

But now they won't, after getting along with these people for a few months, I feel more and more their simplicity and kindness, and any of them sacrificing here will make people feel distressed!

Moreover, after a year in the academy, Master Bai Fan once taught that human life cannot be measured and calculated by numbers, and the life of one person is as precious as the life of ten thousand people!

Therefore, these young people did not urge to speed up the transportation of grain on the plank road this time, because they didn't want to use their lives to fill the sky, even if the officials of Shu Dao and the court were urging, several people did not change their original intentions!

Li Yesi is older, nineteen years old, so he asked to walk in front of the team to open the way, Li Chengxun looked at the senior brother who took care of him, and knew that he couldn't do it, so he had to agree to go behind!

On this day, everyone happened to walk to the famous dangerous place on the meridian road, Waist Ridge Pass, which is about 200 kilometers away from Chang'an!

Here is a few miles long mountain dangerous road, below is the bottomless valley, the road is made of wide stones, but in the mountain stream, and the grain transport team has a cart of goods, although the artifact wooden ox and horse can be pushed by one person to walk this road, but the road is dangerous and slippery, to ensure the safety of people and goods, it is extremely difficult!

Li Chengxun is fifteen years old this year, and it has been two months since he entered Shu this time.

In order to reduce the burden of the grain transportation team, fifteen-year-old Li Chengxun volunteered to carry 30 catties of grain and follow all the way, without using tools, so that he could not only exercise his physique but also save some food!

Beside him was a twenty-year-old man who came out of Shudi, not tall, sturdy and honest, but he was very talkative, he had never been out of the house since he was a child, and he was full of curiosity about everything outside!

Along the way, his favorite thing was to listen to Li Chengxun introduce him to the big city, Chang'an, and Zhongnan Academy!

His name is Ma Jiulang, there are many brothers and sisters in the family, he ranks ninth, and it is said that his ancestor is still the Three Kingdoms and Five Tigers Ma Chao!

"Brother Li, I have never seen an official like you, I heard my father say that officials are directing others to work, but you carry food yourself, and I can carry dozens of catties of food, but it is not easy to walk such a long mountain road on my back every day! Are you really an official? Ma Jiulang, who was pushing the wooden ox and flowing horse, asked.

Li Chengxun was stunned, yes! If it was my former self, I would definitely not come here to endure hardships, but after a year at Zhongnan Academy, I like to work with people!

"Hehe, how can I be considered an official? It's just that he has been shaded by his ancestors, and he has no official position, so he is here to help with this grain shipment! As for carrying food, it is all taught by our master, and we should be self-reliant! ”

Ma Jiulang said enviously, "Hehe, reading people are good, I can't understand what you say, but I think it sounds good!"

I'm not stupid, although you are not an official, but look at the way the official treats you, you are more powerful than the official!

Your Master? Is that the dean of Jungnam Academy you are talking about? Is he really as good as you say? ”

Hearing this, Li Chengxun secretly praised this Ma Jiulang in his heart, and he told him about the academy and the various deeds of Master Bai Fan along the way, and he heard that Ma Jiulang's eyes were full of little stars, and in the end, he couldn't believe it!

But Li Chengxun clearly knew that this Shudi man, who had seen the outside world for the first time, was eager to study and go to school like himself, because he could often find at night that Ma Jiulang always shouted the names of Zhongnan Academy and Bai Fan in his dreams!

Li Chengxun said with a smile, "Haha, that's right, it's the dean of Zhongnan Academy I told you, in the eyes of our students, the master is an omnipotent existence, and any problem seems to have become simple for him, just like this drought in the north!"

The master proposed to buy grain from Shudi, and in order to solve the transportation problem, the master also took out the wooden ox and flowing horse designed by Zhuge Wuhou back then!

You see, our master was originally a scholar, but he can also calligraphy, martial arts, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, craftsman skills, and even singing is a must in Chang'an, and he also sang a magnificent divine comedy to his wife, and was respected as a love saint by Chang'an people! ”

"Wow, that's amazing?" Ma Jiulang said enviously, thinking to himself in his heart, how good it would be if he also had such a master!

"Hehe, Brother Jiu, do you also want to go to school in our academy? Shall I introduce Master to accept you as a disciple? Li Chengxun asked seductively.

Ma Jiulang swallowed and foamed, his throat felt a little dry, and he asked in a low voice, "Really, really?" Can I too? No, no, you are all nobles to enter the academy to study, my old nine is the big old man in the mountains, definitely not good, waste learning! ”

Hearing this, Li Chengxun felt very uncomfortable in his heart, what a simple mountain people, "What did Brother Jiu say?" Aren't we all born the same? Master once said that the sages passed on knowledge for future generations to learn!

Our academy is different from other places, our academy not only accepts the children of rich and noble families, but also many brothers and sisters in the academy are born as beggars, and even the gardeners and cooks of the academy can be enrolled in the academy to attend classes!

Master said, there are only Mr. and students in the academy, there is no other status, Brother Jiu, you are so studious, with the relationship between the two of us, the younger brother is willing to introduce you to my master, presumably when the next college enrolls students, you will definitely be able to go to school together! ”

What the?

Ma Jiulang couldn't believe it, and stammered, "Really?" Can I really? ”

When he turned around and saw Li Chengxun nodding, Ma Jiulang became excited in an instant, and he had the urge to shout at this time!

But it was at this time that he did not control the strength of his hand, causing his wooden ox and horse trolley to slam on a raised stone on the mountain wall, and it was instantly bounced back, and the plank road was already narrow.

Li Chengxun saw that it was not good, so he immediately leaned forward to pull it, but it didn't matter if he pulled it, Ma Jiulang fell too fast, and even Li Chengxun was dragged down!
