Chapter 228: Angering the God of Ceres
One Huo Guang has completed the task, that is, to fight wits, this is a ridiculous game, although Huo Guang won, but he feels that there is nothing to be happy about, just like an adult wins a child, it is a matter of course, it is a shame to lose, and there is nothing to show off if you win.
Emperor Wu is very happy, the IQ of the envoy is not important in him, the important thing is that his own person wins, this is enough, the game is not terrible, who is stupid and who is embarrassed.
But Huo Guang refused all the rewards of Emperor Wu, just wanted to go back early, saying that Rong'an was still waiting for him, so he said goodbye to Emperor Wu, and on the day of leaving, he met Jin Judong, who lost the battle of wits and courage, Huo Guang walked out of the main hall, Jin Judong walked inward, the two passed by, Jin Judong saw Huo Guang's eyes stunned, stopped, and just wanted to say something.
His lips opened slightly, and the words he wanted to say had reached his mouth, but he was stuck in his throat again, and he had to swallow back to his stomach, because Huo Guang didn't pay attention to him at all, not only did he not speak, but he didn't even look at Jin Judong as if he was facing the air.
Jin Judong's hot face almost stuck to the cold buttocks, so naturally he quickly retracted his expression, coughed lightly, and pretended not to take the initiative to speak just now.
Wang Yi was guarding outside the palace, he had a full view of the scene just now, and snickered in his heart, although he was not qualified to watch the wits competition, but the anecdotes of the county horse and the ingenious questions had already spread in the palace, and even the palace maids and eunuchs in the harem knew that there was no need for Wang Yi to inquire, no matter who he saw, he would listen to it again, although the content was not lacking in exaggeration, but each version said how the county horse wisely answered Jin Judong's three questions, and how to put forward clever and humorous questions, and Jin Judong's embarrassment was scratching his ears and cheeks.
Seeing Huo Guang come out, Wang Yi hurriedly greeted him with a smile, "The villain saw it just now, it's really enjoyable, we should ignore him, and make him think that he is engaged in some kind of wit competition, something, and in the end, he will still lose to our county horse......" Wang Yi said a lot of thunderbolts, but he still didn't feel that it was enjoyable, and continued, "But Junma, why don't we want the things rewarded by His Majesty, what a pity." ”
Wang Yi has always felt unwilling in his heart, Junma can obviously get a lot of rewards, although it is not difficult to win Jin Judong, it is quite smooth, but at least it takes brainpower, why don't you go home directly.
Huo Guang didn't care about this at all, just said faintly, "Why do you go back earlier, there are still many things to do." ”
They didn't choose any sunny morning, or the auspicious day of the zodiac, after Huo Guang and Emperor Wu said goodbye, he didn't want to stay in Chang'an for a day and wanted to go home, he really couldn't let go of the shopping mall, supermarket and school, and of course Rong'an at home, originally he would teach movable type printing and go back, but he was dragged by Jin Judong for a few days, and finally did something to break his wit, so Huo Guang hated this Jin Judong in his heart.
......
Autumn afternoons are particularly short, and it is already dusk before the endless farms, already carrying ripe fruits, waiting for the farmers to harvest.
When he arrived at the path at the edge of the field, Huo Guang turned over and dismounted, and couldn't help standing on the side of the road, admiring the scene of the autumn harvest in front of him, and sighed silently in his heart, two completely different worlds, different houses, different faces, and different lives, but the dealers in these fields are indeed the same, they have undergone thousands of years of evolution, and they still maintain their original appearance.
I still remember when I was a child, I went to my grandmother's house, and it was such an endless crop field, and at that time, I just felt that it was the happiest thing to be able to run freely on the edge of the field.
But now I don't know where my relatives are, are they still thinking about themselves, thinking of this, Huo Guangyoumei's eyes floated with mist.
Suddenly, a noisy sound disturbed Huo Guang's thoughts.
"He's cursed, he's an inauspicious man. Must be drowned. ”
"You are talking nonsense, my baby can't be an inauspicious person, he must have eaten a bad stomach to be like this." A woman hugged a young boy of six or seven years old, probably because of malnutrition, the boy's body was very thin, and there was hardly any flesh on his face, but what was not commensurate with his thin body was that he had a bulging belly.
Because the body is too thin, this belly is particularly obvious, the little boy's clothes are already thin, and they don't fit very well, this belly protrusion has been completely exposed, and others can see it at a glance.
Several people began to come to help, trying to snatch the child from the mother's arms, and a leading middle-aged man looked kind and persuaded him:
"Dog baby, it's useless for you to do this, the patriarch said, your dog baby has offended the god of grains, so it was retributed, we must be on the edge of the field, drowning the dog baby to get the forgiveness of the god of grains."
The woman held the child stubbornly, not letting others get close, and kept crying, "Impossible, my dog is so timid, usually I don't even dare to step on a worm to death, how can I have the courage to offend Ceres." Although the woman was in tears as she spoke, she did not bow to the child snatcher in the slightest, and she attacked everyone who wanted to get close to the child snatcher.
Those people were also villagers at first glance, this action must not have been their original intention, it was estimated that it was instigated by the so-called patriarch, so they didn't use too much force, otherwise how could so many people not be able to snatch a child from a woman, Huo Guang fell on the child's stomach again.
said that he had a big belly because he offended the god of grains, Huo Guang must not believe it, because all the knowledge he learned told him that this state can only be one reason, this child is sick, as for what kind of disease, Huo Guang has to check it carefully to know.
Maybe it was because he was impatient to wait, and three more people came not far away, led by an old man who looked to be in his sixties, and his age could be guessed with wrinkles on his face, but the momentum of his speech was not lost at all to the young people who had just snatched the child.
"Zhang, don't do any more useless struggles, today the dog baby will die or die, if you don't die, you will die, and it looks like the harvest is about to be harvested, do you want the whole village to starve because of the dog baby?"
"But the dog baby is not wrong, he will never offend Ceres, he is still so young, and so honest." The woman still did not let go of her child, but her eyes were full of despair.
"Isn't the dog baby stealing the sacrificial offerings that offended the god of grains?"
Hearing this, the woman's pupils suddenly shrank, and she sat on the ground limply, but the hand holding the child did not let go.
