Chapter 021: The First Side Quest
"Ding! The host triggers the first side quest of the 'Great Traitor' system--Leaving a name for Bianliang Famous Spots-
1. Leave the name Mencius Temple! ”
When Cai Dao said the damp tone, this prompt began to circulate in front of his eyes non-stop.
But he has long been scared by the system, and now he has no official position, even if he completes this branch task, he will not get a reward. And why bother to complete the task? So, he ignored the system's prompts.
"Hosts can rest assured that once a side quest is completed, rewards will be paid out immediately, without any strings attached, and no life-threatening events will occur. Except, of course, that the host is looking for death on its own. ”
"So what just happened?" Cai Dao was a little moved when he saw the conditions, but he was afraid of the pit, so he should be careful to verify it first.
"Just now, what happened just now? You've hurt a hair, and that's a problem. In his mind, the mini version of Xiao Cai Dao kept turning his head, and began to sell cuteness with Cai Dao again.
"System, don't bully me for being uneducated, who doesn't know what the famous Bianliang Bajing is
Fantai spring, iron tower clouds, Jinchi night rain, Zhou Bridge bright moon, Liang Yuan snow Ji, Bianshui autumn sound, Sui embankment smoke willow, Xiangguo frost clock
Well, I'm carrying it well! When did Mencius Temple become a famous attraction in Bianliang City? ”
"Alas! It's really scary to be uneducated!
The Eight Views of Bianliang you mentioned were approved by Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, and he also changed several of the Eight Views of Bianliang that were circulated in the Ming Dynasty.
Please, think about it with your small brain, what dynasty is there now?
What's more, as the world's largest metropolis today, how can Bianliang City only have eight landscapes?
Host, you really dare to say that you are literate! Tut...... Tut! ”
Mini Cai Dao covered his face with his little hands, looking like he was loveless, and while talking in his mouth, he made a babbling sound, that little look, it was really cheap.
If he has the ability, Cai Dao really doesn't mind beating him hard.
At this moment, Cai Dao really felt that he was very shameless, and he didn't even arrive first for such a simple thing.
He quickly diverted the topic and asked, "System, if the mission is successfully completed, what will be rewarded?" By the way, do you have a name, it's a bit difficult to communicate like this? ”
"Nope! Whatever you want to call it, whatever you want! Since this is the first time a side quest is executed, the host must complete the quest before it can be known. However, warn the host that if you fail to complete the quest that day, you will lose the rest of the quest chain after the side quest. The same goes for other side quests" This time, the system is no longer cute, and he told Cai Dao seriously with a small face.
"System, that's what you said, I'll give you a good name later! By the way, how do you accomplish this task? "Being famous, this is a taboo for a creature like an otaku, and it is also a weakness, so after Cai Dao saw the word "name", he felt that it was much more difficult than scolding the emperor.
"I really can't understand a creature like you, you look at those Internet celebrities in later generations, it's too easy to become famous."
"So, did you choose the wrong host in the first place? system, why don't we change people now, let me go back to the next life, wouldn't it be better for you to pick an Internet celebrity again? "It sounds like his current identity and situation are good, but Cai Dao would rather go back to be an otaku than stay here to be the traitor of that Laoshizi.
"This system is not strong enough to complete the host's new reinforcements, so you should concentrate on completing the task! Given that it is the first time for the host to perform this kind of task, I would like to give you a small hint, isn't there a lot of ginseng attractions when they like to carve forks everywhere × forks to visit here? It's really not okay to burn down the Mencius Temple with a fire, you can see if it's easy to be famous, borrow you a fire! "Say, the hell system actually has a flaming torch in his hand.
"Ugh! I think it's better to forget it, if you dare to set fire, you will either be killed immediately by these angry melon-eating people around you, or let the emperor be caught and beheaded outside the gate at noon! Forget it, let's just write a trip here. After Cai Dao finished speaking, he rode to a corner of the Mencius Temple, took out his special charcoal pen from his arms, and prepared to leave immediately after writing.
"Please note that if the name left by the host is seen by more people, the more widely it spreads, and the more rewards you will get in the future!" After swiping the screen, the mini version of Xiao Cai Dao swished and disappeared.
Sure enough, it's very pit, Cai Dao fortunately didn't start writing, otherwise he would have completed the task so hastily, and the reward he got must not be a good thing.
Well!
It's decided!
'Cai Keng',
This is how Cai Dao gave the name to the 'Great Traitor' system after careful consideration.
"Little board, you go and see if there is a stall for writing letters, and if so, go buy a few pieces of paper to write peach charms." Cai Dao thought for a few minutes, considering the particularity of the Mencius Temple, and finally decided that writing and leaving his name was the most appropriate method, so he told Cai Ban to buy paper, as for what to write, he had already made a decision.
"No!" Cai Ban has been observing, Childe suddenly ran to the corner, suddenly stopped moving, I really don't know what Childe is crazy again, he agreed, jumped off the horse, handed the reins to Cai Bucket, and ran to a stall.
Here in Mencius Temple, of course, there will be a booth for writing letters, and there is more than one.
Cai Ban had noticed it a long time ago, so he chose a stall where the business was not too good, but the stall owner was loyal to the scholars.
"Hello, uncle! Do you have any of the kind of paper you have for writing peach charms? "Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, this is the truth that Cai Dao and Cai Xi have given him since they were children, so Cai Ban smiles no matter who he sees, but his monkey face is very funny.
"Doll, of course I have it here, but now that the New Year has passed, what are you buying this thing for?" Sure enough, the stall owner saw that Cai Ban was so polite, so he asked patiently.
"No, my little boy may want to practice calligraphy, so he ordered me to come over and buy some peach rune paper." Cai Ban pointed at his son-in-law and replied.
"Small board, buy more at a time, you come back and get the money first!"
Over there, Cai Dao suddenly thought that this was the first branch task, and maybe he would need peach rune paper in the future, so he shouted to Cai Ban to come back, and he estimated that the little money on Cai Ban couldn't buy much peach rune paper.
"No! Childe, uncle, you wait. I took the money back and bought all the peach rune paper you have here! Cai Ban sang a promise to the stall owner, and was about to run back to Gongzi to get the money.
"Doll, wait a minute!" I saw that the stall owner took out two pieces of peach rune paper from his small stall and handed them to Cai Ban, saying, "I'll give you two first!" If your son-in-law doesn't write well, don't buy paper here at Confucius Temple. ”
"Uncle, why is that?" Cai Ban took the peach rune paper, and some didn't understand what the stall owner meant, could it be that if you have money, you can't do business?
"This is Mencius Temple, let's go, I'll go over with you to have a look!" After the stall owner finished speaking, he walked directly to Cai Dao.
"Uncle, what about your stall?" Cai Ban followed behind the stall owner, looked at the stall behind him, and asked uneasily.
"Hah...... Ha! Little doll, don't worry! This is the Temple of Mencius! Besides, with me watching here, what are you afraid of? Before the stall owner could speak, the flower-faced man preemptively spoke, and after speaking, even he followed.
Cai Ban rushed to Cai Dao with two pieces of peach rune paper: "Childe, give!" Then he parroted what had happened.
Cai Dao is indispensable, anyway, he is very confident in his words.
Actually, Cai Dao didn't know.
If this matter had been replaced by other children, the stall owner would not have been so serious. But now, everyone knows that he is Cai Jing's nephew.
Don't look at Cai Jing and Cai Bian are now both third- and fourth-grade officials, Cai Jing is the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, and his reputation in officialdom is not so loud, and Cai Bian is even more stained with the light of his father-in-law Wang Anshi. However, the Cai brothers' words are registered in the official family, and they are even more famous in Beijing, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is difficult to find money. As the nephews of the Cai brothers, if their handwriting is too poor, it will inevitably affect their reputation.
The reason why the stall owner said that was actually out of kindness, this is for Cai Dao's sake!
Cai Dao had already jumped off the horse and returned to the carriage of the carriage to take out the pen, ink and inkstone, which should be Sister Dahua's work on weekdays. The little confused wanted to watch the carriage, so Cai Dao could only do it himself now.
Borrowing a table, spreading out the peach rune paper, and grinding the ink, Cai Dao took a deep breath, closed his eyes and brewed for a few minutes, and then without hesitation, he waved the poem that he had thought of a long time ago.
After Cai Dao finished writing, he carefully looked at the words on the peach rune paper, and nodded involuntarily, quite satisfied. It can be said that his work today greatly exceeds the level of practicing calligraphy in Cai Fu in Xiaocili.
When I raised my head, I found that I didn't know when, except for the stall owner and Hua Xuanyi, there was actually a large group of people surrounded by black pressure, and it was not a big deal to see the lively people eating melons. However, this is also good, it is quite good for the spread of your reputation, and it may be able to improve the completion of this task.
"Scholar, how is it, you have not been short of time! What kind of thing is this doll written! Why don't I know a word? "Hua Xianyi stands close, and when he deals with the stall owner on weekdays, he can also recognize so many words, but he doesn't know a single big word from the beginning to the end of the peach charm written by Cai Dao.
"Don't make a noise, let me see again! This son, don't mind if I pick it up and take a look! The stall owner said a word of fancy, and then asked Cai Dao.
"It's okay, you take your time." Cai Dao replied lightly, and after speaking, he commanded again: "Little board, you go and ask the temple of Mencius Temple to come over, and say to see if my peach charm can be hung outside the Mencius Temple." ”
"No! Son! Cai Ban agreed, immediately got out of the crowd, and ran to the Mencius Temple. This is also because of his small size, if he changes Cai Bucket, he will not be able to squeeze around for such a large group of people.
After about a quarter of an hour, the stall owner carefully put the peach talisman on the table and said loudly: "This son, this peach talisman is quite well written!"
The people are heavy and the king is light, and the eternity is beautiful;
Sacrifice life for righteousness, the benevolent are invincible. ”
"Good...... Good...... Good! ”
As soon as the stall owner's words were finished, Hua Xianyi immediately shouted yes, whether he knew the meaning or not, and the people around him immediately followed loudly.
"Datang, Cai Youlin! However, this son, there seems to be another kind of calligraphy in your calligraphy. Please forgive me for being shallow in the next learning.,I really can't see which penmanship it is.。 The stall owner didn't care about everyone and said to Cai Dao.
Cai Daozhen didn't expect that this stall owner was so good-looking that he could actually see the foundation of his writing from his own words.
The peach charm is written by Lishu, and Cai Dao has copied the calligraphy since childhood, one of which is the calligraphy of Cai Youlin, one of the four major calligraphers of the Tang Dynasty, and the other is the famous "Cao Quan Tablet" in later generations.
However, as the nephew of the Cai brothers, it is really unbelievable that he does not practice regular script, but practices official script.
