Yun family, Jing Xi.

Reading Pavilion, Puguang Temple, Cao Changlin, Yu Jing......

Who is he, and what do the others do?

What is the relationship between all of them?

Sheng Ting fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, he pulled his leg again and walked back in the direction he had come.

Seeing this, Meng Fang hurriedly chased after him: "Master, where are you going?" Don't wait for General Xue? ”

"Maybe he'll have to stay here for a while," Sheng Ting walked quickly, "Since the master of sword forging is not here, then we will go back first and come back another day." ”

"Yes!" Sheng Ting walked so fast that Meng Fang had to run to catch up with him.

But Sheng Ting walked and suddenly stopped.

The ridge was so narrow, Meng Fang didn't stop, and almost fell into the paddy field: "Master? What's wrong with you. ”

"Forget it, I'm not going back." Sheng Ting rarely hesitated and contradicted like this, "It's better for you to go back alone, take my letter, and help me do something when you go back." ”

The Mongolian side could vaguely guess what the general wanted him to do, which was nothing more than to carefully investigate this place and the people in this place.

The two soon left the reading pavilion and went to the Guangpu Temple next door.

The Mongolian side added some incense money and borrowed pen and ink from the novice of Guangpu Temple.

Sheng Ting wrote a letter to the Mongolian side, and the Mongolian side rushed back to Jiucheng non-stop.

After Meng Fang left, Sheng Ting went back to find Xue Qian.

Xue Qian was pulling seedlings in the dry field with the young man named Cao Changlin with great interest, and seemed to be chatting very speculatively.

Seeing Sheng Ting go and return, Xue Qian got up from the field.

He saw that the big burden on Meng Fang's back had been carried by Sheng Ting at the moment, so he asked him, "You let Meng Fang go?" ”

Sheng Ting said 'um': "You should stay here a little longer." ”

"Of course, this Brother Cao is too unexpected, after going around with him, I found that there are surprises everywhere, how can I use it?"

"Oh?" Sheng Ting took the initiative to roll up his trouser legs and sleeves, and asked Xue Qian, "What kind of surprises are they?" ”

Xue Qian was stunned and asked with some surprise when he saw Sheng Ting's actions: "You also want to work in the fields?" ”

"It's okay to be idle," Sheng Ting said, "by the way, ask that brother a few more words." ”

"I'm afraid it's not that easy......," Xue Qian lowered his voice, "I've been testing just now, but the young man's sense of secrecy is very strong, no worse than your awareness of being a scout." ”

Sheng Ting went down to the field: "You always have to try it yourself to know." ”

"Okay, I'll let you touch the nails!" Xue Qian followed Sheng Ting.

The two of them got closer and closer to Cao Changlin, so Xue Qian returned to his normal volume and said to Sheng Ting:

"Brother Cao is really a smart man, he invented a faster and less labor-saving method of rice planting, which he called rice throwing.

Pull up the seedlings first, and then you don't need to go into the water anymore, just stand on the ridge and throw the seedlings into the paddy field. Isn't this a novelty?

You see, in the few acres of paddy fields over there, those monks do just that, they don't have to pant when they throw a piece of the field, and they don't even have to bend their waists. ”

"It's really different from ordinary farming methods, Brother Cao is really smart." Sheng Ting put aside the burden on his back and began to get close to Cao Changlin.

Cao Changlin was a little flattered when he saw that Sheng Ting also came to help him pull out the seedlings: "Don't, this big brother, carefully dirty your clothes and hands." ”

"It doesn't get in the way, I work a lot at home. Listen to Xue Qian, brother, you agree with us to bring this new method back to the south, brother is so selfless and generous, we also want to do a little bit. ”

"Alright then, I'll bother you." That Cao Changlin smiled, and his eyebrows and eyes when he laughed seemed to be very close to water.

Sheng Ting quickly lowered his head and plucked the seedlings, and said, "When I came just now, I saw a monk working in the fields at the foot of the mountain, as if he had been brought to your reading pavilion. Is there a doctor in the reading room? ”

"Yes, the medical skills are still very good," Cao Changlin said, "There are often good men and women who come to seek medical treatment, and occasionally people from other places come over."

It's like two big brothers coming all the way over. It's just unfortunate that Brother Yu Jing has not been in the cabinet recently, and it's a little bad time for you to come, big brother. ”

"I'm not in a hurry, I can wait." Sheng Ting, as if unintentionally, asked, "Then does your pavilion master know medical skills?" Isn't his medical skill very good? ”

Cao Changlin smiled: "Where will our pavilion master ......?"

In the middle of his words, he stopped: "This eldest brother, is it really here to find Brother Yu Jing to forge a sword?" ”

"Naturally, I even brought my own materials." Sheng Ting pointed to the big burden that he had put aside.

Cao Changlin sighed: "Since you have made a special trip to find Brother Yu Jing, it is better not to inquire about our pavilion master, our pavilion master has never liked to be inquired into private matters." ”

Sheng Ting nodded: "It's me who is abrupt." ”

After this short sentence, he went to work without saying a word.

His movements were fast, and he looked like he was angry in the eyes of others, even though he was purely quick.

Cao Changlin felt that the atmosphere was not very good, so he found himself under the stairs: "The two eldest brothers have been busy for a while, they should be thirsty, I'll go get some water for you." ”

"Okay," Xue Qian deliberately stopped what he was doing and looked at Cao Changlin, "I just happened to be thirsty, thank you." ”

As soon as Cao Changlin left, Xue Qian said: "What is your name?" You don't hit the south wall and don't look back. I'm with you, this young rao's mouth is tight. You prefer to ask yourself, and if you can't ask, you will give people a look. ”

Sheng Ting glanced at Xue Qian: "When did I give people a look?" ”

"Not yet, you've rolled my eyes, am I not human?"

"............" Sheng Ting glanced at Xue Qian coldly.

Xue Qian stopped playing tricks with him, and said seriously: "In fact, the more they hide it, the more they know that there is something wrong with their pavilion master."

If there are no secrets, why be afraid of being asked? So although we both inquired about everything, we didn't inquire in vain. ”

Sheng Ting frowned, now he was only looking forward to the black.

When it was dark, he went to the reading pavilion to explore it himself.

……

"Are you really going?"

In the guest room of Guangpu Temple, Xue Qian took off his shirt, twisted his neck, moved his shoulders, and asked Sheng Ting.

Sheng Ting's clothes were neatly dressed, his whole face was solemn, and he looked very serious: "Yes." ”

Xue Qian yawned again: "I didn't sleep last night, and I did another job today, aren't you tired or sleepy?" I'll just wait here for the Mongolian side to bring you the news. ”

"No," Sheng Ting insisted, "take care of my baggage." ”
