Chapter 2: A New Identity
The Cui family's cemetery is not far from the Cui family's house, even if it is a mountain road, it doesn't take an hour to arrive.
In the years when the young master of the Cui family, Cui Li, went out to study art, the servants of the Cui family were also loyal and honest, and they would always go to the mountain to clean up and pay tribute every year during the Qingming Dynasty, so this cemetery was also quite tidy.
Under the volunteer leadership of Ah Fu and Cui Wang, two domestic servants who were over fifty years old in Cui's house, Zhang Tie walked slowly for forty or fifty minutes on the mountain path, and finally came to the tomb of the Cui family's lord and wife.
The cemetery of the Cui family is very decent, there is a stone fence around the cemetery, and on the ground in front of the tomb, there is also a bluestone floor, and on both sides of the tomb, there are several Rui beasts guarding the tomb.
Zhang Tie stood in front of the tombstone where he was buried, looking at the names of the Cui family couple on the tombstone, and his heart was inexplicably complicated.
Without Zhang Tie's hands, Ah Fu and Cui Wang were already busy sprinkling the cemetery and setting up offerings and candles for Zhang Tie.
You and your son were killed by the poisonous wolf Zhu Liang, the real Cui Li died in the mountains, he was killed by the poisonous wolf Zhu Liang and fed the beasts, and there were no bones, I killed the poisonous wolf Zhu Liang, and in the future, I walked the world with Cui Li's face and identity, in the eyes of outsiders, it is also your son, and the identity and position of your son, today, I will kowtow to the two of you, and it can be regarded as a fate between me and your Cui family......
Zhang Tie thought so, and when he saw what Ah Fu and Cui Wang had prepared, he didn't hesitate at the moment, but knelt directly in front of the tomb and kowtowed three times to the Cui family and his wife.
After kowtowing, Zhang Tie stood up. patted the clothes on his body, and then built a stone pot next to the tomb with Ah Fu and Cui Wang to turn paper money. I turned the yellow and white paper money I brought.
While burning paper money, Ah Fu and Cui Wang couldn't help but cry.
Ah Fu was in tears. "Master, madam, open your eyes and see, the young master has come back, and he has a great future, our old Cui family will be regarded as the glory of the ancestors in the future......"
Cui Wang's eyes were also red, "Yes, our young master will ride a big horse in the future." Take the golden boat, become the general and become the lord of the city, you can also look at the underground......"
In the eyes of these subordinates, the Cui family and his wife naturally died of illness one after another, and the young master Cui Li was naturally the young master Cui Li at the beginning, this time the young master of the Cui family came back, the Cui family was going to prosper, and the young master Cui was kind-hearted. As soon as I came back this time, everyone's monthly salary was increased, which was directly doubled, and everyone will have a good life in the future, and now everyone has a feeling of boiling out.
Finish the paper money. Ah Fu used the river water rice in the clay pot he brought to extinguish the sparks in the stone pot, and then sprinkled it around the cemetery, just as they were about to leave the Cui family cemetery. Jia Tingchang, who was slightly panting, arrived with Li County's order.
Seeing Cui Li incarnated by Zhang Tie for the first time, County Magistrate Li's eyes also lit up.
Cui Li at this moment. is still a shiny bald head, with a sturdy figure more than two meters tall. The muscles of the whole body are bulging, making people look at it, it gives people a feeling of being as strong as steel and iron, in the mouth of others, the young master of the Cui family, the real age is over 40 years old and nearly 50, but it doesn't look old, at first glance it looks like he is in his 30s, upright and prime, the age of the young master of the Cui family, if it is for ordinary people, it is the age when Shaohua has passed, and for a knight, this age, even if he is 10 years older, is not old, but simply too young, It's exactly eight or nine o'clock in the morning.
What impressed Li Xianling was Cui Li's pair of knife-like thick eyebrows, just looking at it, it made people feel murderous and heartbroken, and that pair of thick eyebrows matched his iron mountain-like figure, it felt like a fierce god...... Oh, no, it is not angry and self-threatening, and under the thick eyebrows, Cui Li's eyes, as Jia Tingchang said, in those pupils, between opening and closing, there seems to be a flash of fire, which is even more terrifying......
As a county commander, of course, his knowledge is much higher than that of Jia Tingchang and others, but just looking at Cui Li's eyes, Li Xianling suddenly remembered that when he had a party with friends one year, everyone talked about the topic of knights, and at that time, a distinguished guest brought by his friend at the banquet once said that some masters who cultivate advanced cheats will show exercises on their appearance after advancing to knights, and the eyes are the gateway of a person's spirit, so many of those exercises and visions appear from the eyes, so that others can see them from his eyes.
Combined with the news brought by Pavilion Chief Jia, Li Xianling almost instantly judged that Cui Li was already a knight, and what he cultivated did not seem to be an ordinary exercise.
This Cui Li, promoted to knight at this age, has a bright future.
Thinking like this, before Pavilion Chief Jia could open his mouth, Li County Ling took the initiative to salute Cui Li first, "Li Chunfeng, the county commander of Xia Tongguang County, has seen Mr. Cui!" ”
Cui Li's identity has not yet been determined, there is no official identity, he can't be called an adult, as a county parent official, at this time, calling Zhang Tie Cui Young Master is almost flattering, and directly calling Cui Li's name is not polite, Li County Ling just called Mr. Zhang Tiecui, this is the difference between civil and military, the county order is considered a civil official in Taixia, and a civil official calls a knight Mr., which is not only respectful, but also does not lose his identity.
"Oh, it turned out to be County Commander Li!" Zhang Tie smiled and nodded, his attitude was not arrogant, but he was not very eager.
For a knight, what is a county order, the two sides are already people from two worlds, unless they are acquaintances and friends, otherwise, it is surprising to be too eager.
Zhang Tie's attitude made Li Xianling more and more firm in his judgment.
After saying hello to Zhang Tie, Li Xianling took the initiative to walk to the tomb of the Cui family and his wife, bowed three times seriously, and said, "The family is a filial son, its sect is also light, the township is a pillar, and the grace is on the side, this official will be for our more than 800,000 people in Tongguang County today, thank you Cui Jia Shi'an and his wife, strict father and mother, for my Tongguang County, cultivate the first knight, earn the first majestic archway, educate future generations, and shine in the township!" ”
Zhang Tie laughed. This Li County Order is really a wonderful person. This Chinese chapter can be made in front of oneself. Praise people are so level, they really have some ability.
"Li County Ling and Jia Tingchang have worked the mountain, why don't they go home and drink a cup of tea together to rest!"
Li Xianling laughed and crossed his hands again, "Then bother!" ”
Looking at Li Countyling's attitude towards the young master of the Cui family, Jia Tingchang, who originally felt that he had inexplicably had a bit of an elder advantage in his heart of "watching Cui Li grow up", also became unwilling.
The group went down again.
It's much easier to go down than to go up.
Li Xianling's pace is vigorous, not losing to young people, among the four. Chatting with Zhang Tie while walking, it was not difficult at all.
"Li County Order is already level seven?" Zhang Tie asked Li County Order.
"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I couldn't learn martial arts before I went down, I only reached the sixth level, and my progress was difficult, so I had to learn the way of the world and enter the official career, and I slowly grinded it down over the years. I insisted on exercising and meditating every day, and barely ignited more than ten bright points, and I just advanced to the seventh level last year, and I didn't dare to boast in front of Mr. Cui! Li Xianling said modestly.
Zhang Tie heard in Youzhou that Taixia selected high-quality officials. At least starting from the county order of the ninth grade, the minimum requirement must reach the level of a sixth-level warrior, and he has not been in contact with these grassroots officials in Youzhou. Originally, I was skeptical, but I didn't expect it to be true.
This can also be regarded as in Taixia. In any other place, there is simply no country that can achieve and adhere to such talent selection standards.
Warrior of the sixth level. In the past, in the Weiyi subcontinent, it was already the level of a grassroots officer at the platoon level of various national troops.
Don't look at this Li County Order, it looks like a scholar, but advancing to the seventh level also means that more than ten ordinary big men and thieves are not his opponents at all, even if they are sixth-level warriors, three or five people may not be able to help him.
Taixia formal school education, even including the academy, is to take the road of the integration of civil and military, this kind of education in the integration of civil and military, in the Taixia Chinese people have been passed down for thousands of years, if you look at the history of the Chinese people before the cataclysm purely from the perspective of education, then, you can find a law, all the dynasties that adhere to the integration of civil and military education, in those dynasties where scholars bear bows and poets are swords, the Chinese people are heroic, powerful, and a cattle are as bright as stars in history. The dynasties that have abandoned the integration of civil and military education will gradually decline, among them, the dynasties that emphasize military and light literature will go to internal turmoil, such dynasties, military generals are in the world, and they are constantly conquering everywhere, and one by one Chinese countries have appeared one after another, but they are all very short-lived, and in the dynasties of national education that completely move towards the dynasty of emphasizing literature and light martial arts, although such dynasties can live a little longer, but in the end, without exception, they are all ended by the huge disasters caused by foreign invasions to the entire Chinese people, and those disasters are often close to extinction.
The future of a country can be known by looking at the country's current education. Those who are heavy on martial arts are strong and chaotic, and those who are heavy on literature are weak and die, and only the unity of civil and military is the right way.
The national policy of Taixia is written into the "Taixia Law", and the way of education is exactly four words - the integration of civil and military.
……
Back at Cui's house, Jia Tingchang's excuse to leave in advance was to leave, and in the end, only Li Xianling and Zhang Tie came to the house and drank the spring tea picked by the Cui family in their own tea garden on the mountain.
"I don't know what sect Mr. Cui has invested in all these years before he can be promoted to knight?" Li Xianling drank tea and asked Zhang Tie a question.
"How difficult it is to enter a famous faction, either you have great talent or a strong background!" Zhang Tie shook his head, "I have no sect, only go everywhere to visit the masters in the famous mountains and rivers to learn art, and then the emperor lived up to his painstaking efforts, and had an adventure in a famous mountain, met the cave of the knight, obtained the secret pill in the cave, and after more than ten years of penance, he was promoted to knight!" Zhang Tie threw out the statement he had prepared a long time ago, this statement is basically true, and it can stand the test, if someone really wants to be more serious, Zhang Tie will lead him to the cave where he got the "Candle Dragon Sutra" to dispel a suspicion.
Li Xianling was stunned, this kind of thing, in Taixia, is not nothing, but it is very legendary, he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen to Cui Li in Liuying Town under his rule.
"Then I wonder what Mr. Cui plans to do in the future?"
"At the time of this holy war, as a knight, it is natural to serve the country, and to go to the most dangerous place to fight the demons!" Zhang Tie said impassionedly, "I'm coming back this time, that is, staying at home for a few days, coming back to pay tribute to my parents, and see the fathers and villagers in Liuying Town, and then I'm going to go to the Earth Metaverse to kill the demons and ......."
"Mr. Cui is strong, the husband should be like this, it's a pity that my strength is low, if I can advance to the knight, I must also follow Mr. Cui and go to the battlefield to fight with the demons!" Li Xianling slapped the table excitedly.
"This time, it just so happens that Li County Ling is also here, and I have something to entrust me!"
"Please say, as long as you can do it, you can't say anything about it in the next definition!"
Zhang Tie touched his bare head, and said rudely, "After I left, I don't know what year and month I came back, and a loyal servant in the family helped me guard the house. ”
"Don't worry, this matter is on me!" Li Xianling agreed immediately, this kind of thing that can be related to the knight, he can't find it with a lantern, not to mention that he took the initiative to bump into it, where would Li Xianling refuse.
"Thank you very much!"
After returning to Liuying Town and confirming his current identity as Cui Li, Zhang Tie settled down in his heart......
Li Xianling only stayed at Cui's house for a moment before leaving Liuying Town.
After confirming Zhang Tie's identity as a knight, Li Xianling returned to the county seat in a car, and on the same day, he sent out an official document.
The official document was sent to Zeyun City, Tongguang County is under the rule of Zeyun City, and there is a knight in Liuying Town of Tongguang County, after confirming it, of course, it is necessary to notify the city pastor of Zeyun City as soon as possible, and this is not a trivial matter for Zeyun City.
In this way, even the city pastor of Zeyun City was alarmed, and the news that Cui Li, the young master of the Cui family in Liuying Town, had become a knight, also officially spread at the foot of Panlong Mountain.
……
In the next few days, Jia Tingchang of Liuying Town and the villagers in Yigan Town felt that the entire Liuying Town was like a vegetable market. I heard that the gifts brought by those who came to visit made the entire Cui Mansion's treasury unable to fit.
The small town of Liuying, since history, has never experienced such a scenery.
After a few days of excitement, one night, some residents of Liuying Town saw a fire flying into the sky from Cui's house, and when the next day, those who were still waiting in line to visit the young master of the Cui family came to wait again, but they had already heard a news - the young master of the Cui family had left last night......
