Chapter 269: The Man in Master's Portrait
When Mura Zheng, who was walking behind Lu Juncheng, saw it, he immediately stepped forward, blocked in front of Lu Juncheng, and persuaded:
"Mr. Lu, you are too thin, and it is indeed very difficult to carry such a bag of sweet potatoes up the mountain. So, let's change it, you can carry this bag of silk. ”
Lin Yue, who was walking in front of Lu Juncheng and them, also heard what the village was saying to Lu Juncheng. She turned around and walked back, came to Lu Juncheng's side, and said:
"Uncle, I'll carry it, let's let Uncle Zhang carry the bag of silk."
Anyway, she is a martial artist. Although after coming back, she didn't practice martial arts every day like before, but she still had a little strength.
Not to mention carrying a bag of sweet potatoes up the mountain, it is a person who carries more than 100 catties up the mountain, and that is no problem.
Mura Zheng listened to Lin Yue's words, and his face turned red. He is not old, with him and Lu Juncheng here, how can he let Yue'er and a woman's family carry some sweet potatoes for them.
"You just carry your food box, and don't worry about the rest." Mura Zheng looked at Lin Yue awkwardly and said.
Lu Juncheng originally wanted to insist on carrying the sweet potatoes up the mountain and sending them to the kitchen of the academy, but he didn't think that this bag of sweet potatoes was really heavy.
And he has carried his parents all these years, except when he was young. Later, I almost only memorized herbs or something.
A basket of herbs is really not as heavy as a big bag of sweet potatoes.
So when he was carrying the sweet potatoes today, he was indeed a little struggling.
But Muramasa was older than him, and he really didn't want Muramasa to help, so he said, "...... I can do it. ”
"You can carry silk, listen to my ......," Muramasa said.
Just as the two of them were scrambling to carry the bag of sweet potatoes, a man dressed in black and wearing a hat approached.
After the man in black descended the stone steps, he came straight to Lu Juncheng and them, and without saying anything, he carried a bag of sweet potatoes and ran all the way up the stone steps.
The village was carrying a bag of silk, and Lu Juncheng was trying to go up the stone steps with his empty hands, trying to catch up with the man. But no matter how hard they tried, they just couldn't catch up.
They were both dumbfounded! In this Qingyuan Academy, you must abide by discipline, and after entering, you are not allowed to make loud noises. They looked at the man's distant back, and he was very vigorous, like a thief with wings, and he flew fast.
They are also two long legs, why do people run so fast?
Both Muramasa and Lu Juncheng felt incomprehensible.
Because they didn't understand, they wanted to chat while walking, and at the same time they had to abide by some discipline of the academy, so they only dared to talk in small talk.
"Ah, hey, I said we had to hurry up so we could catch up with that hero and ask him for his name. Knowing his name, I will thank him in the future, and by the way, ask him if you would like to accept an apprentice? There is nothing to say about this good work, and it would be a pity if you didn't accept an apprentice. ”
Lu Juncheng listened to Muramasa's words, and also nodded in agreement, saying:
"I also want the good guy to slow down so we can talk to him. Although I had never been to Qingyuan Academy before, I had heard people say that after entering the gate of the Academy, I had to walk up at least 100 stone steps before I could reach the Academy's school. ”
The good man only blinked an eye, and he was afraid that he had climbed nearly twenty or thirty stone steps.
"I just want to persuade that good man to go slowly, don't be tired." Lu Juncheng went up the stone steps empty-handed, and he was also tired and out of breath, and it was inevitable that he would worry about that good man in his heart. That's what I said to Muramasa.
Mura Zheng raised his eyes and saw Jing Xiao and Lin Yue, one carrying a bag of winter melons, and the other carrying two food boxes, all about to catch up with the hero.
This time, he glanced at Lu Juncheng very embarrassedly, and kindly reminded:
"Lu Juren, although you are a person who has read poetry and books, a person who has been lifted by the middle, and a person who has learned. But after all, you haven't married yet, you have to exercise. Or, when you marry a wife in the future and have your children, you and your wife send your children to study in the academy, and you have a hard time going up the stone steps yourself, so you can only ask someone to carry your children to school? ”
As soon as he heard Muramasa's words, Lu Juncheng immediately blushed with shame.
Isn't it?
His niece Yue'er, a weak woman, was carrying two food boxes, and she was already about to catch up with the hero. But he, an elder, is also a healthy person, why does he walk so slowly?
Lu Juncheng nodded and said to Muramasa:
"Brother Zhang, what you said is that I have to exercise well in the future. If I continue like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk more than fifty steps, so I'll have to rest for a while before walking. ”
Mura Zheng stretched out his hand and patted Lu Juncheng's shoulder, and persuaded: "It's good to exercise more, when you are usually fine, walk and run by the river more, it's almost the same." This enhancement of physical fitness also takes time, so don't worry. ”
"Okay." Lu Juncheng said humbly.
At the same moment, Lin Yue carried two food boxes and rushed to catch up, just to catch up with the pace of the man in black and see what kind of face that person looked like.
Because the back of that person is very familiar, it is the back of a man she saw in the portrait of the master when she lived in the valley with her master Xinning County Lord in her first life.
Lu Jingshuo saw that Lin Yue was running fast, so he couldn't wait for Lu Juncheng and Yu Ling, he just wanted to catch up with Lin Yue.
Anyway, Uncle Zhang is with him, and he can help him send Lu Juncheng and Yuling to his uncle Jingyan.
He had to keep up with Ah Yue's pace so that he could tell Ah Yue something very important. It is related to him and Ah Yue, as well as to the man in black and Ah Yue's master, Lord Xinning.
As soon as he saw the back of the man in black, he remembered a person he had seen in his previous life, a person who had been loved by his little aunt, Lord Xinning, for many years.
The figure was tall, walked with the wind, and had an awe-inspiring temperament.
At the beginning, he sent people to the Northern Crossbow Country to arrest Qiu Yuanli's gang of thieves and behead them, but fortunately, there was that person who protected them in secret, so that all of them were unharmed.
He knew that that person had paid a lot and contributed a lot to the prosperity of Jingxi Country behind his back. So he always wanted to add an official to that person, and even wanted to transfer that person back to the imperial city from Que Prefecture and let that person be the general of Qianniuwei.
But the man, after hearing his offer, refused him in front of him.
He didn't know what that person had paid so much for Jing Xiguo, he didn't want to be promoted, and he didn't want any reward.
But it wasn't until many years later that he learned what the reason for that person to pay so much for Jing Xiguo. First, because that person's grandfather and father were both military generals loyal to the Jingxi Dynasty, and that person was also very patriotic.
The second is because that person made a promise to one of his elders, a certain prince, many years ago:
He will protect the tranquility of the border of Jingxi with his life, and return the people of Que Prefecture to a peaceful pure land. As long as he still has a breath of air, he will never allow anyone to harm the people of Jingxi Kingdom!
When the little aunt Xinning County Lord was still alive, he didn't know that the little aunt had a deep affection for that person, and he didn't know that the person could make such a promise to the little aunt's father, in addition to that person's love for Jing Xiguo, it was also related to that person's love for the little aunt.
