"Did you hear that? Another husband died last night, and the body was only discovered in the morning, and the internal organs were gone......"

"The day before yesterday, Xu Laosi was a little late when he came home, and when he passed by the alley, he heard a baby crying, so he stepped forward to check. As a result, I saw a cat-faced weirdo, digging up people's internal organs to eat, Xu Laosi's frightened soul flew away, and he is still lying on the bed......"

Listening to the panicked voices nearby, Gu Sheng knew one thing, what they said was true.

There really is such a cat-faced weirdo who eats human guts.

Because the night four days ago, the predecessor was scared to death when he saw this scene, and then he wore it.

What a hell of a world.

Gu Sheng shook his head, fortunately, he hadn't heard of anyone being eaten at home, as long as he didn't go out at night, he would be fine.

The rest depends on when the yamen can get rid of the cat-faced weirdo.

I heard that the yamen has gone to invite the masters of Qingyunguan, but I don't know if I can get rid of it.

Gu Sheng was thinking about a more important question...... What should I do next?

At present, there are two paths in front of him, either the imperial examination or the study of martial arts.

Not to mention the former, the latter can at least live in peace, the only problem is that the money needed to learn martial arts is not a small amount.

And this body is not much better, not to mention the four walls of the family, and it can't take out the money at all.

The other way is the imperial examination, which is also the most suitable path for him.

Tongsheng, Xiucai, lifting people, Jinshi.

Among them, Tongsheng is similar to ordinary people, and his status is high when he reaches Xiucai, and even if he fails to pass the exam, he will be a private school teacher, which is also a good way to live.

Some gentry choose their sons-in-law and daughters to marry in the show.

And Gu Sheng is now a child, and then he is a Xiucai, and then he will find a job to support himself, and then find other opportunities - such as asking for immortals.

After all, the foundation of the predecessor is not bad, and I have been a problem solver for more than ten years, so I may not be able to take the test if I spend some time studying, and I will be able to live a lot better.

Watching the sun gradually set, Gu Sheng cleaned up his stall.

What he is doing now is catching knives, that is, writing letters, lawsuits, and contracts for people, and he can't make a few dollars, just barely enough to eat.

On the way, he bought a handful of vegetables and went home, a bungalow with two rooms and a kitchen, and a yard of more than 20 square meters, which is all he has now.

In the yard, there are palm-sized white sapoos, or cabbage, but they are still ripe. Although it can be eaten, it is too wasteful.

Gu Sheng has been wondering if he can raise some earthworms and then raise chickens in the past two days, not to mention making a fortune, at least he can improve his living conditions.

He had thought about glass before, but when he thought about it, he knew that glass was burned in sand, and the world already had glass.

The other is the mercury mirror, but unfortunately he doesn't have the money to experiment again and again.

After thinking about it for several days, the only thing that can come in handy now is this method that has little technical content.

Now recalling that the teacher said "learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid to go all over the world", Gu Sheng only felt that the teacher's words were meaningful.

……

Dinner was small rice, the taste was very astringent, and I panicked when I entered my throat.

There is no oil and water in the dish at all, just a handful of green vegetables are boiled in clean water, and then a little salt is added.

Thinking about the rice and white noodles, big fish and meat, and barbecue hot pot in his previous life, he has the heart to cry now.

It's too hard.

"The World of This Dog's Day"

After eating, I went to the room to light the oil lamp, touched a few books with my hand, and finally picked up a copy of "Lu Guang's Travels"

"I must finish reading this book today, and I will read the Four Classics tomorrow," Gu Sheng made up his mind.

A lot of this book is full of strange anecdotes about the mountains and wild spirits, or strange people and strange things.

The content is mostly hearsay, and it is not clear how much is true or how false it is, but it is more or less possible to understand some of the situation in this world.

I don't know how long I saw it, Gu Sheng's eyes were a little red, mainly smoked.

This kind of oil lamp is really smoky to the eyes.

"Meow ——!"

A cat meow sounded outside the window, and Gu Sheng was suddenly startled.

"Whose cat came running?" Gu Sheng scolded in a low voice, lowered his head and continued to read.

It wasn't until he finished reading the last page that Gu Sheng let out a sigh of relief, put the book on the table, and stretched his waist.

Then I felt as if my hand was touching something soft.

Gu Sheng's whole body froze.

"Childe, it's getting late, it's time to rest." A soft, warm woman's voice rang in her ears.

Gu Sheng twisted his neck stiffly, and saw a person standing next to him at some point, dressed in a long green skirt, with a slender posture and a fair complexion, like a good fat jade in the light. A foxy face, eyes like autumn water, and quite smart, long hair tied up on the top of the head.

At this time, he was looking at himself with a gentle smile.

"It's over!" Gu Sheng had such a thought in his heart.

"It's okay, it's not a cat-faced weirdo! At least the death won't be too ugly! ”

"Vixen?" Gu Sheng touched the axe on the table with one hand.

In the days he came to this world, he slept with an axe, and when he read, he put it on the table and could reach it.

"Don't laugh at the son, the slave's surname is like jade!" Yan Ruyu's eyes flowed, she was really like water, with that foxy face, her red lips were lightly opened, her attack was extremely strong, and her damage was extremely high.

Gu Sheng felt like he was bleeding.

"Who are you? What is the purpose? Gu Sheng pinched the handle of the axe, and immediately his courage increased.

He felt that no matter what the other party was, he could fight back.

"Don't be afraid, the slave family was born because of the son, and existed because of the son." Yan Ruyu chuckled lightly, and her eyes turned to the book of "Lu Guang's Travels" on the table.

"What do you mean?" Gu Sheng's heart moved, and then he finally reacted, and said in amazement: "Yan Ruyu? ”

"Guanghai Yan Ruyu?"

"The slave family is exactly." Yan Ruyu chuckled.

Gu Sheng's face changed, and he still felt incredible.

……

The Guanghai chapter in Lu Guang's travelogue accounts for a large part of the content.

Guanghai is a county town along the coast, and the people worship the green god and pray for the blessing of the gods.

One day, the green god opened his mouth and offered three young girls, five pairs of boys and girls, and sent them into the nearby mountains, otherwise they would set off a huge wave and destroy this place.

There was a panic in Guanghai City, and the gentry were afraid, so they selected three young girls, and five pairs of boys and girls to be dedicated to the green gods.

And Yan Ruyu is the daughter of a wealthy local businessman, born with a flower and moon appearance, and has practiced martial arts since childhood, known as a chivalrous spirit, thinking that the green god is fake, but it is actually changed by the mountain spirit monster. He hid a short knife, secretly replaced one of the women of similar stature, and was sent into the mountains.

As the others leave, a blue-faced, fanged youkai appears.

Everyone else cried and screamed, but Yan Ruyu pretended to flatter, and when she got closer, she suddenly pulled out a knife and stabbed her in the heart, seriously injuring her.

And the blue-faced and fanged monster was injured, and killed Yan Ruyu with one blow, and fled to nowhere, and I don't know whether it was dead or alive.

But that's not the end of the story.

After the remaining two women and five pairs of boys and girls fled back to Guanghai City, the local gentry believed that Yan Ruyu and the sacrifices had angered the gods.

They tied up the two women and five pairs of boys and girls and threw them into the mountains to fend for themselves.

And the family of a wealthy businessman surnamed Yan was also forced to leave the country.

……

There is no official figure in this story from beginning to end, and Gu Sheng only thinks it is a country monster.

However, unexpectedly, a woman appeared who claimed to be Yan Ruyu.

This made him a little numb.

"Are you really Guanghai Yan Ruyu? How did it end up here? ”

"The slave family also doesn't know, most of the previous things can't be remembered, vaguely only know who their surname is, where they come from, and they were born because of their son, and they exist because of their son."

Gu Sheng's mind turned sharply.

Yan Ruyu's words, he probably understood.

But I didn't believe it at all.

It's outrageous, I can't believe it.

It's even more outrageous than the snail girl.

To say that this is a female ghost, or that the cabbage in the yard has become fine, and admires his knowledge and character, he is still a little easier to accept.
