The old man was engrossed in carving, and the carving knife was turning up and down on the agarwood, and it didn't take much effort to carve a rough look.

The old man raised his head from time to time to look at Li Beixiang, and then lowered his head and carved.

After about a stick of incense, a miniature version of Li Beixiang appeared in the old man's hand.

"Niu Pi, your craftsmanship is really amazing. Li Beixiang looked at the miniature version of himself in the old man's hand with a shocked face, and praised it sincerely.

It is also very powerful that engraving can do this kind of thing.

"Reward, this son has a reward. ”

Li Beixiang took out a few pieces of broken silver again and scattered them in front of the old man.

The old man looked at the broken silver, hurriedly put down the carving knife in his hand, grabbed the broken silver under his feet, blew the dust on it, and then put it in his arms with a smile on his face.

"This son, your statue is carved, give. The old man smiled and handed the statue to Li Beixiang.

Li Beixiang took the statue and was amazed.

"Alright, go home. Li Beixiang smiled and played with the statue in his hand, and left with a smile on his face.

"Childe, this person's craftsmanship is really amazing, and the carving is like a real person. Lao Chai followed behind Li Beixiang and sighed with surprise.

"There are a lot of talented people in this world. Li Beixiang sighed.

............

"Come on, change my son's clothes. ”

At dawn the next day, Li Beixiang stood in the middle of the house, with a tired look, yawning.

"Yes"

Qin Qing'er and the others, who were personal maids outside the room, heard Li Beixiang's voice, and hurriedly rubbed their eyes and pushed the door in.

Li Beixiang stretched out his hands and let Qin Qing'er and the others change their clothes.

Half an hour later, a handsome young man appeared in the room.

I saw that the young man was wearing a headband with Wusha as the face and gold wire as the bone, and a crystal clear hosta passed through the headband.

Dressed in a white silk robe, the robe is embroidered with gold thread with patterns of birds, animals and other patterns, and the feet are thick-soled official boots.

He had a slightly evil smile on his face, and his eyes were as bright as stars.

When Qin Qing'er and the others saw Li Beixiang like this, they all had stars in their eyes, and they looked at Li Beixiang with a nymphomaniac.

"Today, my son is going to Jingshi, so you should stay in the mansion well. Li Beixiang took out a jade pendant again and hung it on his waist.

"What? Is it so urgent? Childe, the slave family wants to serve you. As soon as Qin Qing'er heard this, she instantly became anxious.

"Yes, Childe take us, although we don't have other skills, but we still have the ability to serve people, and I hope Childe will take us." Zhao Qinglan was so anxious that tears came out, and the pear blossom pleaded with rain.

"You don't need to say it, this time I went to Jingshi to participate in the selection of disciples, not to play, what will I take you into, okay, no need to say more. Li Beixiang looked at a few people, directly ignored the tears of several people, and directly refused.

"Childe, we ......"

"Stop, I've decided. Zhou Ziyi wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Li Beixiang before he finished speaking.

"Well, I haven't written what I promised to write to you before, so I think I'll take advantage of this time to write it for you. Li Beixiang sat on a stool in the middle of the house, holding his head with his hands and said.

"Pen and ink waiting. ”

Zhou Ziyi spread the paper on the table and pressed a piece of paperweight, while Qin Qing'er was grinding ink beside her.

Li Beixiang took a brush from the pen holder on the table, dipped it in ink, and began to write on the paper.

After a short time, Li Beixiang put down the brush, took out his seal, dipped it in ink, and pressed it on the name on the paper.

"Okay, I'll just write a copy, it should be fine, you can discuss it yourself and keep it. Li Beixiang blew the paper, hoping that the ink would dry faster.

"The slave family thanked the son. Qin Qing'er and the others looked at the paper with a wistful expression, and saluted in unison.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. With this thing, I believe that no one in this Li Mansion should dare to bully you. ”

After the ink on the paper dried, Li Beixiang folded it up and handed it to them.

"Alright, leave me alone. My son went to breakfast, and he was going to leave after breakfast. Li Beixiang looked at them and sighed.

"Childe, if it weren't for you, I guess we would have died by now. Qin Qing'er and the others burst into tears and looked at Li Beixiang with a grateful face.

For Qin Qing'er and others, Li Beixiang is undoubtedly their life-saving benefactor, although he didn't save them directly, but for them, it was the same as directly saving them. What's more, Li Beixiang also took them in, which is even more grateful.

"Okay, stop, don't give me a salute, don't cry, I can't see a woman cry in my life. Okay, that's it, this son has gone to dinner, and you don't have to follow. ”

After speaking, Li Beixiang swaggered out of the house.

......

After breakfast, Li Beixiang returned to the house with Lao Chai, took out the things that Qin Qing'er and the others had packed for him before, and then walked out of the door.

"Fourth son, the eldest prince has sent someone to urge, do you think it's faster?" A person who looked like a family man ran to Li Bei, bowed down, and said cautiously.

"Got it, you go and tell the eldest brother, I'll be here soon. Li Beixiang looked at his yard and waved his hand at this family member casually.

"Yes, Fourth Son. ”

The family saluted again, then stood up and ran outside.

"I don't know when I'll be back. ”

Li Beixiang stood in his yard and looked at his small yard.

Every grass and tree, as well as the small tree I planted when I was a child, has grown so big now.

"Alas, gone. Li Beixiang sighed, took a step, and walked out without looking back.

Outside the gate of the Li Mansion, Li Donglai stood in front of several tall horses, looking at Li Beixiang with a smile on his face.

"Fourth brother, what's wrong? Are you still reluctant to go home?" Li Donglai looked at Li Beixiang with a smile.

"Yes, the home that I have lived in for so many years is about to leave now, and I am a little reluctant to ask. Li Beixiang said wistfully.

"Okay, a manly husband is not informal, how can he be like a woman. Li Donglai said proudly.

"Alright, let's go. Don't look at it, there's nothing to see. Li Donglai turned over and got on his horse, and when he looked back, Li Beixiang was still standing in front of the door of the Li Mansion staring.

"Oh, here it is, here it is. Li Beixiang glanced at the Li Mansion again, turned over and rode away.

Lao Chai also turned over and got on his horse and followed behind Li Beixiang.

Just as Li Bei was leaving, Qin Qing'er and the others ran to the door of the Li Mansion, and Pear Blossom shouted with rain: "Son, the slave family is waiting for you to come back, don't forget the slave family when the time comes." ”

"How come, when will this son forget you. Li Bei turned to look at Qin Qing'er and the others, and said with a smile.

"Childe must remember us. ”

Qin Qing'er and the others cried.

"I will definitely remember, I Li Beixiang will never forget my hometown. Li Beixiang said.

"Childe, it's time to go. Lao Chai urged.

"Alright, I'm leaving. Ride!" Li Bei waved the whip in his hand and rode away.

"Take care, Childe. Qin Qing'er and the others chased after Li Beixiang, but how could the speed of a person catch up with the horses?

"Drive!" Lao Chai also waved the horse whip in his hand and rode his horse to chase Li Bei.

"Drive, drive, drive. ”

Three horses galloped on the land of Shuodong County, and after an hour, the three of them left the gate of Shuodong County.

Beyond the gates was the vast expanse of land, unobstructed by houses or the like, and the speed of several men increased again, and the horses galloped across the land like arrows from a string.

"Hahaha, a man should ride a fast horse and drink spirits. Happy, happy. Li Donglai was in high spirits and waved the horsewhip in his hand.

"Big brother, slow down, wait for me, you don't know that I'm not good at equestrianism. Li Beixiang chased after Li Donglai at great speed.

"Childe, be careful, don't fall off your horse. Lao Chai followed behind Li Beixiang, controlling the speed of the horse, and looked at Li Beixiang with a worried face, for fear that Li Beixiang would drop off the horse.

"Haha, fourth brother, you are not as good as me. Drive, drive, drive. Li Donglai waved the horsewhip, bringing out bursts of smoke and dust, choking Li Bei, who was following him, coughed straight.

The three of them rode horses galloping in the sun, galloping away in the direction of the sun.

I don't know how long it was, but a five-foot-high stone tablet appeared in front of several people.

This stele is engraved with several big characters of Shuodong County.

"After this stone monument, we will go out of Shuodong County. Li Donglai's speed slowed down, and he pointed to the stone tablet in front of him and said.

"Yes, after this stone tablet, it is out of the territory of Shuodong County. Li Beixiang echoed.

"Big brother, wait a minute. Li Beixiang suddenly remembered something and stopped Li Donglai.

"What's wrong?" Li Donglai stopped and looked at Li Beixiang suspiciously.

Li Beixiang turned over and dismounted, took out a piece of cloth from his body and put it on the ground, then picked up a handful of loess with his hand and wrapped it in cloth.

"I said, fourth brother, when did you become so sentimental? This is not like you? haha. Li Dong looked at Li Beixiang's movements and couldn't help but feel a little funny.

"Alas, a souvenir. Li Beixiang put the wrapped soil into the package, hung it on the horse, and then turned over on the horse.

"It's all right now, is it?"

"It's gone. ”

"Okay, let's go. Li Donglai pointed ahead.

"Uh-huh, let's go. Li Beixiang picked up the horsewhip, whipped it on the horse's buttocks, and was about to run forward.

At that moment, the earth suddenly trembled.

"Lil"

Li Beixiang pulled the reins, controlled the horse, made it stop, and then looked around with a wary expression.

"This tremor should be a large number of horses running, otherwise there could not have been such a tremor. Li Donglai clenched the reins in his hand and looked around vigilantly.

The tremors were getting louder and louder, and a large amount of smoke and dust appeared in the distance.

It didn't take long for a brightly armored cavalry to appear in front of them.

"It's Li Ziqi, it's our army. Lao Chai squinted his eyes and looked at the cavalry, only to see a large black flag rushing to the front of the cavalry.

"Big brother, it's our army. Li Beixiang looked at this group of cavalry and said excitedly.

"Yes, it's our army. Li Donglai's heart relaxed.

"Big brother, fourth brother. We're here to see you off. ”

I saw two people running out of the cavalry group, shouting towards this side.

"Big brother, it's the second brother and the third brother. Li Beixiang recognized the two at a glance, and said to Li Dong with an excited face.

"Second brother, third brother, why are you here?!" Li Donglai was also a little excited, and hurriedly controlled the horse and ran towards them.
