Chapter 101: The remains of the Ministry of Industry

"Strange Woman, is this the helper you hired?" The NPC is dressed as a scholar, and a box is wrapped in a gray cloth behind his back, which looks like Du Fu's ashes.

"yes." A wisp of Mochen smiled at the NPC and said, "He is the number one master in the Jiangshan Continent, and he will personally escort you to ensure that you will have a safe journey." ”

"But he's too murderous." The NPC looked at me, "I can't take it. ”

"I'm here, I'm afraid I can't accept it, right?" I'm in the red name state, and it's normal for NPCs to have a bad attitude towards me: "If you don't accept it, then I'll kill you here, and then grab the box behind you and send it to Yanshi in person." ”

As I spoke, I pulled out my soul knife ghost hand with a sonorous sound and sneered: "Anyway, I have already killed tens of thousands of people, not one of you." ”

"You dare?" The NPC's face changed: "Sure enough, you also covet my grandfather's bones!" ”

", I'm not interested in that skeleton, I just want to help you." I snorted: "But you also know the rules of the Jiangshan Continent, if we do things for you, you will give rewards!" ”

"Mr. Du, this friend of mine is not very easy to talk to, if you don't agree, he will really kill you." A wisp of Mochen smiled slightly and helped me speak.

"Strange Woman, how is your approach different from that of a robber?" This NPC is more pedantic and argues with reason.

"Say whatever you want, if you don't agree, you'll die!" I urged a breath of true qi, and the edge of the soul knife and ghost hand pierced the void, slashing at the NPC's head!

"Dizzy, you're really doing it!" A wisp of Mo Chen saw that I was really killed, and after muttering a sentence in his mouth, his graceful body elegantly blocked in front of the NPC, raising the short sword in his hand and posing defensively: "Defend the shortage!" ”

"Sonorous!"

“150426!”

might as well be a wisp of strange dust will move suddenly, I want to accept but it's too late. There was a loud clash of weapons in my ears, and the chick was slashed by me, and a huge damage of more than 150,000 points flew above her head. The blade almost touched the NPC's cheek, and a tuft of black hair danced in the wind.

"I'll ...... I'm higher level than you, and I can't even defend myself against your normal attacks? Seeing that a third of her qi and blood had been extinguished, the chick asked in surprise.

"When I entered the game, I gained some attribute points by taking on tasks and being downgraded, and my attack power was higher than that of normal leveled players." I glanced at a wisp of Mochen and explained lightly.

"Hey, it seems that there is still a gap." A wisp of Mochen sighed slightly, and then didn't say anything, and said to the NPC: "Mr. Du, you have also seen it, if I become a demon and want to kill you, I can't stop it at all." Well, if you promise to let him protect me, I'll follow you, and if you don't, then I'll go first. ”

At this time, the NPC's face was pale, if it wasn't for Mo Chen's stop just now, he would really be a dead body. Gritting his teeth slightly, the NPC finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll agree to your request!" But there are many obstacles along the way, and you must guarantee my safety absolutely! ”

Bite!

System prompt: Do you accept the quest [Remains of the Ministry of Industry]?

……

"Heh, if you say this earlier, you have to make my brother angry." I put away my long knife and clicked accept.

Bite!

System Prompt: Congratulations on successfully receiving the seventh turn of the [Nine Turns of Separation from Hate] series of quests [Remains of the Ministry of Industry]!

Mission requirements: Escort Du Fu's grandson, Du Siye, to Yanshi.

……

"Boss Yu Wang, how's it going?" After all, he was not in the same team, and a wisp of Mochen couldn't hear the system prompt: "Is it the Nine Turns to Hate Mission?" ”

"Hmm." I nodded.

"Great!" A wisp of Mochen said excitedly: "Do you owe me a favor this time?" How are you going to pay me back? ”

"I do." I shrugged my shoulders indifferently: "You say, you can do anything except let me make a personal promise." ”

A wisp of dust: "......"

"Strange Woman." Du Fu's grandson, NPC Du Siye, looked at a wisp of strange dust and said, "I have promised now, can we go?" ”

"Of course!" A wisp of Mochen happily agreed, and we protected Du Siye in the middle from left to right, and walked towards the Yanshi map without hurrying.

"Mr. Du, can I ask you." As he walked, a wisp of strange dust asked, "Didn't they all say that [entering the soil is safe]?" Since Ling's grandfather has turned into a pile of dry bones, why did you want to send him all the way to Yanshi? ”

"The Strange Woman doesn't know anything." Du Siye obviously had a lot of affection for a wisp of Mochen, and when he heard this, he said: "This matter has to start with my grandmother, I'm afraid that Mochen Woman will not have the patience to listen to it." ”

"It's okay." A wisp of Mo Chen said indifferently: "Anyway, this road will take a long time, and being idle is idle, let's say it." ”

"If you're interested, I'll let you know." Du Siye said as he walked: "My grandfather has a beautiful character, he calls himself Shaoling Ye Lao, and he has been thinking about the safety of the country all his life, paying attention to the people's livelihood and suffering, and has been admired by the scholars of all generations. I believe that Mochen Woman should know [Wang Anshi]. ”

"I've heard of it." A wisp of Mo Chen agreed.

"Wang Anshi is also a generation of writers, and he once looked at the portrait of my grandfather and said, "But the heart of the public is ancient and small, and I am willing to travel from the death of the public." Du Siye said proudly.

"What do you mean?" A wisp of Mo Chen deliberately turned his head to look at me, and he didn't have anything to say.

"It's very simple, that is, Wang Anshi thinks Du Fu is very good, and hopes that he can come back to life, and he will be Du Fu's younger brother." I said.

"Why do such touching words change the taste in your mouth?" A wisp of Mo Chen snorted.

"Maybe your Excellency thinks that my grandfather's achievements are not enough, and they are not in his eyes." Du Siye seemed to be unhappy with me, and snorted coldly: "If Wang Anshi's evaluation is not enough, then what about Zhu Xi's evaluation?" He is very harsh in his appraisal of characters, and there are only five people who are qualified for thousands of years of history: Zhuge Liang, Yan Zhenqing, Han Yu, Fan Zhongyan and my grandfather. My grandfather was the only one who didn't do much politically. ”

"I didn't say that your grandfather was not good, what are you doing with so much explanation?" I'm also very depressed, girl, didn't I just want to kill you, why do you hold a grudge like this?

A wisp of Mo Chen seemed to mediate the atmosphere between us, and interjected: "Mr. Du, as far as I know, my grandfather's poetry is exquisite and influential, and he is called a poet saint by later generations, but some people say that he is a love saint, what's going on?" ”

"Don't worry, that's what I'm going to say." Du Siye said with a look of reminiscence: "Don't say that my grandfather is worried about the country and the people, but only that he has been loyal to his wife all his life, and he deserves the word [love saint]." I believe you should also know that among the poets of all ages, the word "wife" appears most frequently in my grandfather's poems. ”

Du Siye paused and said: "At their time, Confucius and Mencius had divorced their wives, and the average literati were influenced by Confucianism and felt that it was a shameless thing to value their wives too much, even if they loved their wives very much in their hearts, they didn't dare to write them directly into the poems, except for my grandfather." Also, my grandfather loved my grandmother only one person in his life, which is also very valuable. ”

"Ahem, only love your grandmother alone in your life? I don't think that's what you say, right? "Listening to this bragging, I couldn't help but say.

"That's the truth, why don't you believe it?" Du Siye asked unhappily.

"How do you think I can believe it? As the saying goes, people are not romantic, only for poverty! Living in the era of three wives and four concubines, he doesn't get a concubine or find a few little wives because he has no money! I said righteously: "As far as I know, Du Fu has been poor all his life, where can he have the money to find a little wife?" ”

"Hmph, I thought you had some high opinions, but it turned out to be just nonsense!" Du Siye glanced at me with disdain, and said: "Do you know that my grandfather was born in a family of eunuchs, his ancestor was a famous general of the Three Kingdoms [Du Pre], his grandfather Du Xunyan was a famous poet in Wu Zetian's time, his father successively served as Sima of Yanzhou and Fengtian County, and his mother came from the Qinghe Cui clan, a famous family at that time. ”

"I wiped ......" I was really surprised this time, it seems that it has not been introduced in the history books before!

"Humph! My grandfather became a poet at the age of seven, a book at the age of nine, and a name for himself at the age of fifteen! In addition, it was rumored that my grandfather was powerless, but this was not true at all! He loves martial arts very much, fencing, horseback riding and archery are all practiced, and he once personally said [drunk, fencing, dragon roar] What a pride! ”

The more Du Siye spoke, the more excited he became: "With such a background, such a talent, and such a skill, if he wants to, why worry about three wives and four concubines!" The reason why my grandfather is alone is only because he has high ambitions and is not bound by the love of his children! When he was twenty-five years old, he climbed Mount Tai and proudly chanted a sentence like "will be at the top of the mountain, and see all the mountains at a glance", can you? ”

"I ......" Du Siye's every sentence was loud, and I was ashamed of my ignorance: "I just casually express my opinion, are you so excited to dry your hair?" ”

"Humph!" Du Siye snorted coldly, calmed down for a long time before continuing: "It wasn't until I was thirty years old that my grandfather married his nineteen-year-old grandmother Yang in Luoyang. ”

"I see." Du Siye's narration let me and a wisp of Mochen know a lot of untold stories, I didn't speak again, but a wisp of Mochen asked: "What about later?" ”

"Later, the Anshi Rebellion broke out, and with the enthusiasm to serve the country, my grandfather settled his grandmother and children in Dunzhou, and then went to Suzong himself, but was unfortunately captured by the rebels. After that, my grandfather and grandmother began to live a miserable life. After years of hunger, my grandmother became haggard and emaciated, but in the eyes of my grandfather, my grandmother was still as beautiful as when she was newly married, and my grandfather had always been in love with her all his life. ”

A wisp of Mochen and I glanced at each other, but they were silent and did not speak.
