Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the past few days of living in the snail's house at the bottom of the cabin, Xie An finally got acquainted with the children in the same house, it turned out that these children came voluntarily except for himself and Xiaomu.
They were all about 10 years old, either poor civilians, or lost their relatives on the way south and were taken in by Angkor's gangs, and then sent here to earn money.
Among these people, except for Xiao Que and the dog baby who can help him, the only one who is most worthy of winning over is Xiao Mu.
But Xiao Mu seems to be a little repulsed by Xie An's identity as a child of the family, although he plays chess with him every day to relieve his boredom, but he has very few words, he looks stunned on the outside, and he actually has a lot of eyes, such as the name "Xiao Mu" must be a pseudonym or nickname, although Xie An did not say his real name.
In just a few days, the name "Little Mr. Ahri" spread all over the building, one is that his young master has a big temper, and all kinds of things are good, such as ivory chess pieces, if he can't get it, he will mock Qian, and then continue to ask for something else with a smile.
Second, Xie An will spare two hours every day to teach the children to read and write, and the "Urgent Chapter" is carefully explained, and the children listen to it with relish, and even the guys on the boat come to listen to his lectures.
Third, Xie An taught all the people on the ship who couldn't play chess a simple new chess method, that is, "Lianzhu Gomoku", the sun and the moon are like a wall, and the five stars are like Lianzhu. Although there were already seventeen consecutive chess games in the Han and Wei dynasties, Xie An said that it was simpler, and the five sons of the same color were won in a line, so that the game ended faster and was convenient for everyone to play in their free time.
Xie An's status on the ship suddenly increased, and he also took over the work of writing letters for others, and he did not ask for compensation, as long as he ate and drank well every day.
For a while, Xie An was very popular on the boat, but one person couldn't get used to his various behaviors.
That person is naturally Ah Jin.
Ah Jin did not inform Xie An that this trip was with a mission, he had an inexplicable hostility towards this child, and even Ah Jin's subordinates couldn't understand it.
Ah Jin first hated Xie An's eye-catching temperament, which was a taboo for being an undercover agent, and it might also cause a big deal to happen, so Ah Jin decided to hide Director Wang's order.
Secondly, Xie Antai is too good at buying people's hearts, this kind of temperament is too similar to Director Wang, Ah Jin doesn't like it.
Third, Ah Jin never expected Xiao Langjun, a family who had never suffered hardship, to do anything for them, and he might become a burden in the end.
Ah Jin's disregard for Xie An was known to no one other than Ah Jin's subordinates.
But Xie An, who had been secretly observing the people on the ship, noticed that every time someone looked at him, there would be a faint displeasure in his eyes.
That person is, of course, Ah Jin, but Xie An doesn't think that he has the charm to make everyone like him, after all, he, Xie An, is not a coin that everyone loves.
This trip to Haiyu was safe and sound.
Lou Chuan stayed in the county seat, but Xie An and the others had to go to a place called Nansha by the sea.
In addition to the surrounding area of the county, the seaside is still quite barren, after all, the sea is not developed in this era, and there are not many fishermen villages along the coast of the East China Sea, but it is better to be on the seaside, and there is Si Yan Duwei stationed nearby, and the people in the seaside fishing villages either go out to sea to fish or dry salt for money.
When Xie An arrived in Nansha Township, the first person he met was Physician Si's brother, a well-known doctor who lived in the mountains and often traveled between the county seat and the fishing village.
However, when Xie An saw this pharmacist, he was taken aback.
Obviously, his younger brother in Guangling is an old man with a gray beard and a hunched back, but this pharmacist in front of him is an uncle in his thirties with black hair.
The medicine house of the pharmacist is built in a valley full of herbs, which can block the cold wind from the north, and it is close to the sea, and the temperature is not low, and the herbs still grow green even in late autumn.
The pharmacist was squatting in the medicine field weeding and watering, Xie An had learned half-hung medicine in the past, and he didn't know much about herbs, so he took this opportunity to ask this pharmacist for advice.
It's just that I have to dispel the doubts in my heart first, why the ages of the brothers are reversed.
The pharmacist had a much better temperament than his younger brother, and after he read Xie An's letter to his brother, he immediately said to Angkor, who sent Xie An, "Xiao Langjun can live with me." ”
Angkor was dead-eyed, "This is not good, Xiao Langjun was specially invited by me to teach literacy." ”
I'm too embarrassed to say "please", you traffickers!
Xie An hurriedly said: "I won't escape, if I escape, the little finch and the dog baby will suffer." ”
These words were Xie An's deliberate weakness, although he was a little worried that he would let Xiao Qi'er and the dog baby take responsibility after he escaped, but it didn't seem to be dangerous here, one step at a time, not to mention, he hadn't got Xiao Mu as a technical talent.
"He can't escape." The seemingly honest pharmacist took out a small animal from his pocket and tied it to Xie An's calf.
"This is a spirit mouse, there is a pair, the one he tied will not leave him without my instructions, if he runs away he will always chase him, and then I will release another one, then I can find him quickly." The pharmacist smiled innocently.
Xie An looked at the brown-haired mouse squeaking at his feet, and goosebumps rose.
Although he had seen rats in Jiankang's house, and there were a few times when he made a fuss on the beams of the house, the second brother Xie Ju took herbs to smoke the rats on the beams regardless of his manners, and the rats on the beams were choked and ran around.
Angkor saw that although he was still a little uneasy, he could not leave, and told him that someone would come to pick him up every few days to teach in the fishing village.
The people in the way left, and Xie An temporarily lived in this valley medicine house, which was several times better than the environment of the fishing village.
"How is tangerine peel made?"
"Why are you so young?"
Xie An and Pharmacist Si threw out questions at the same time.
Pharmacist Si said: "Because my brother and I are both sick, my brother is aging faster than ordinary people, and I have a hot miasma in my body, and my heart burns every time I have an attack. ”
Xie An asked, "How could you suffer from such a strange disease?" ”
"My brother said that you are a child of a family, and you can name medicines that are not available in this world, so it is very likely that you have been to Penglai Pavilion," the pharmacist explained the reason for leaving him behind, with a longing look in his eyes, and at the same time tightly grasped his sleeve, "My brother and I are suffering from strange diseases because of half of the Penglai medical classics, if you can go to Penglai Pavilion, it will become the hope for my brother and me to live!" ”
Xie An was a little hairy by him, and the squeaky rats at his feet had an ominous premonition, "Half of the Penglai Medical Codex?" Where did you find it? ”
"In a hole." The pharmacist said very vaguely, but his voice trembled slightly, "That hole is in the nearby sea, so I will stay here." ”
Xie An thought about it, in fact, he had never been in contact with that world since he went to the door of Penglai Pavilion once when he was four years old, because he was too young, and once he came into contact with those books full of divine power, he might be seriously injured again.
The pharmacist said earnestly: "If you can help our brother, I will definitely send you out of Haiyu safely." ”
Xie An had a feeling of being coerced by these two brothers, and he was slightly unhappy, he was under the roof, if he wanted him to bow his head, he had to pay some price.
"I can help you, but I don't want to live here, if you want to find me, you can go to the fishing village, I don't teach every afternoon."
The pharmacist's face suddenly became a little ugly, "You want to live in a fishing village?" The house is leaky, how can you stand it? ”
"I'll get used to living and living."
Xie An looked at the back of Angkor on the mountain road that had not disappeared, dragged the little mouse at his feet, and trotted all the way to chase it.
