Chapter 258: Bad Fate

Yishui County is really not far from Linyi, if you are in a hurry, you can arrive in one day if you don't hesitate to do so. Slow down, it's basically two days.

Li Kui didn't plan to hurry, he even took care of the car, and brought everything on the road to eat and wear, and after the test, he didn't plan to return to his hometown, but rushed directly to the capital.

Before leaving, Li Kui met his third uncle once.

Li Kui originally had suggestions for the future development of the Li family, such as transportation.

Da Song's shipping industry is proud of the world, but for Da Song, inland waterway transportation has always been the industry with the largest volume of goods and the easiest industry to make money. After all, the safety of inland waterway transportation is much higher than that of sea transportation. Although shipping makes money, especially the sea trade in the South Seas, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as grabbing money.

But sea freight is too dangerous.

It's a life-fighting industry.

There are only so many people in Baizhang Village, even if they have recruited some Li clan people who have gone out, the number of people in Zhuangzi has not exceeded five hundred. It also includes the vast majority of the elderly, infirm, women and children.

If the man in the Zhuangzi took a boat to the South China Sea and the boat capsized, Lijiazhuang would immediately become a widow's village. There is no way, there are only so many men in the Zhuangzi, and most of them don't know water. Even if you know a small half of the water, at most it is a bandit like the fifth uncle Li Lin, who thinks about breaking the Liangshan Shan Village all day long, and then makes a lot of money. Li Kui didn't know what about others, but the fifth uncle often exchanged experiences with him.

This is a ruthless man with great perseverance, and he forced himself to learn how to plane in a waist-deep ditch.

Then, the fifth uncle confidently thought that his swimming level was almost over, and it was not a problem to break the beam mountain and water village. I don't know, who gave him confidence?

Dog planing, Li Kui will too!

But the question is, is he proud?

Is he complacent?

But one thing must be explained, other people's dogs, digging out more than ten or twenty zhang is already an unprecedented record. But the physical strength of the people in Baizhang Village is too good, and when the fifth uncle's dog planing is in good condition, he can swim out for two miles, and he doesn't have a rest. The sturdy will be misunderstood as the most standard and energy-saving swimming posture in the world, and it has been pushed to the altar.

There is no way, the people of Baizhang Village seem to be born with a banditry, and they want to make a fortune all day long.

On the contrary, I am not very interested in working to earn money, even if I earn as much money.

It's safe, it's a long stream!

They don't think about it.

It's not that I don't think about it, the main thing is that the money comes too slowly and loses the fun of making money.

Originally, Li Kui couldn't figure it out, but later he figured it out, mainly because most of the men in Baizhang Village used to be hunters. It's not that Orion doesn't make a good living, is lazy, has no purpose, and lacks lasting perseverance. The main thing is the income of the hunters, which is completely linked to the luck.

After going out for three days and returning empty-handed, it was Orion.

After going out for three days, I hit a rabbit and meat porridge, and I was also a hunter.

After going out for three days, I hit a yellow sheep, ate meat, drank wine in a big bowl, and was still a hunter.

Go out for three days...... Every Orion is passionate about the next three days.

That's right, although the Orion is hard, it doesn't make much money. But there is often a big surprise that surprises people can't be surprised. This kind of mental satisfaction and happiness that often hits great luck cannot be experienced at all by farming.

Before, the third uncle had some measures to let the men of Baizhang Village integrate into the farming society of the Great Song Dynasty, but after being deceived, the third uncle also gave up. A dead Taoist priest who was only in his twenties deceived him into a daze, and his brain twitched and wanted to cling to the relatives of the emperor of the previous dynasty, which almost made a big mistake. This made the third uncle stubbornly think that the people in the mountains were used to being simple, and the people on the plains were very bad, which always made him unguardable.

Instead of this, it is better to do exciting business according to the nature of the men in the village.

What could be more exciting than sea trade?

No.

The third uncle recognized that this industry was more profitable than being a hunter, and it was more profitable. Li Kui wanted to persuade him, but he couldn't persuade him at all. This is not only the case for the third uncle, but also for the Li clan, as long as they come down from Baizhang Mountain. The original farmer in the mountains was also such a virtuous person, so what else could Li Kui say?

Why!

It's very simple, even if Baizhang Village was originally planted on dry land, it was also planted on dry land, and the seeds were sprinkled and waited for the rain to be harvested when they were ripe. And because of the small number of fields, those who come to the mu of land dare to call themselves landlords, and their lives are very leisurely. But when I came to Yishui County, it was different, a man had to plant fifty acres of land and take care of the fields, and his original deep love for the land had become full of disgust. I can't finish planting it if I'm tired!

To sum up, the character of the people of Baizhang Village is that they are lazy, poor, and horizontal.

Now although he has money, he can't sit back and eat empty, and the third uncle proposed to do the business of sea trade, which immediately aroused the response and cheers of the whole clan.

Faced with the three-step plan that the third uncle talked about, Li Kui was frightened when he heard it, and asked cautiously: "Third grandfather, it is easy to build a ship, and the asking price of experienced shipwrights is not high, so it's a big deal to go to Yangzhou and dig people at a high price in Hangzhou." But have you ever thought about it, just the goods in the village, the ability of each one to speak is boundless, but you can't even water, how can you go to sea? And to do maritime trade, you don't need to build a ship! ”

"Kui Wazi, you don't understand, the Li family in my Baizhang Village is thin, and I can't stand the loss. Nowadays, none of the young people in Zhuangzi are willing to farm, and they are all holding back to practice martial arts, what do you say the old man can do? Is it the enemy of the descendants of the entire Zhuangzi? ”

Speaking of this, the third uncle sighed: "Besides, can your third grandfather not know that going to sea is not easy and dangerous?" It is precisely because of the danger that our ships should be built themselves. Only the boat built by himself can reassure the old man. I bought several inland river boats with 2,000 materials from Changzhou before, which seem to be tall, but there are many hidden dangers. It's not even as good as other people's old ships, which is also a helpless move. ”

The third uncle's face was dejected, there was no way, he met a profiteer.

Fortunately, it is a large river boat, and even if something goes wrong, most of the people on board can be saved. But if it's at sea, a boatload of people will die.

Li Kui didn't expect that Baizhang Village would take this step, and there would be so many secrets. As for the bottomless pit of the shipbuilding industry, Li Kui is also quite helpless, but since the third uncle has recognized it, there is no reason to retreat.

"But the third grandfather, the sea is not as good as the rivers and lakes, the wind and waves are big, not to mention, as far as the people in the Zhuangzi are concerned, few know how to water. If you really go to the sea, won't you have to make cold water dumplings and drill into the bottom one by one? ”

"Don't get in the way, don't know water, just go to the sea to learn. It's not that hard. The third uncle waved his hand, thinking that Li Kui, who was crisp and crisp before, was a bit of a mother-in-law, could it be that the Li family of Baizhang Village would not be afraid of water? Besides, it's not so difficult to know water, even his old man has learned to gouge, just drink two sips of water, he doesn't believe it, the juniors in the village are all elm heads?

Confession is not the style of the people of Baizhang Village.

Li Kui left Yishui County this time, and after the test, he simply went directly to the capital. Find a way to go to the Ministry of Industry to get a set of shipbuilding drawings out, so that the family's shipbuilding technology can be improved. Of course, it can't be done by yourself, but it shouldn't be difficult to drag the Liu family on.

With a sense of mission to contribute to the family's struggle, Li Kui was silent along the way.

I was thinking about how to build a safe and large ship to improve the shipbuilding level of Lee's shipyard.

And Li Yun, looking at Li Kui's eyes, was very wrong.

Before in the mountains, Li Kui almost shot him to death with a new weapon, this is not Li Kui showing off, but Li Yun's true feelings. He clearly sensed that Li Kui's blow fell, and with his skill, he couldn't resist it at all. The final ending was to be shot to death by Li Kui. It was so cruel that Li Yun couldn't understand why Li Kui was so brutal all of a sudden.

When he was fighting the enemy in Gaojiazhuang before, he, Li Kui, and Shi Wengong all played out. Fight against the six murderers of Jieyang Town, Jiangzhou. As far as Li Yun's record is concerned, it is neither good nor bad. But Li Yun estimated that he was able to take Li Kui's three or five moves to attack with all his strength at that time. In the next two years, I didn't see how enthusiastic Li Kui was about practicing martial arts, but he practiced when he had the opportunity and was quite diligent.

But the result?

Li Kui was so cruel that he could shoot him to death with one move, but he didn't know anything about it.

This can't help but Li Yun is afraid of Li Kui, a sinister villain, who always wants to harm the master.

Anyway, Li Yun was wary of the people around him, even to the point of a bow and a snake.

But what about Li Kui?

He just didn't tell Li Yun that the tricks he used were very powerful and amazing. But there is a disadvantage, slow, so slow that when attacking, it can't keep up with the opponent's escape speed at all. In other words, Li Kui's Nine Transformations of Gods and Demons have their own shapes, but they have no effect of actual combat. Anyway, he knew that as long as the opponent wanted to escape, even a three-year-old child would be able to escape safely from under the pressure of his power demon, and he didn't know if he didn't ask him why.

But he understood that there must be something wrong with this move, how could a useless move achieve the overlord's great martial arts?

But he tried his best to learn, and he practiced quite diligently, but he had little effect, what can he do?

Li Kui turned his head to glance at Li Yun, who was dragging behind, and said, "Keep up." ”

Li Yun stepped forward tremblingly, walked side by side with Li Kui, pondered for a while, and suddenly asked Li Kui: "Second brother, have you read a book recently?" ”

Reading?

If Li Yun hadn't asked like this, Li Kui really couldn't remember that his identity was actually a scholar.

Seeing Li Kui's hesitant reaction, Li Yun suddenly felt happy. There is a way: the east corner is lost, and the mulberry elm is harvested. It seems that Li Kui has not studied these days, and remembering the scene of his hard study, Li Yun regained his confidence from his lost emotions. This will solve the test, it is time for him to kill the Quartet, so he comforted Li Kui very badly: "It's okay second brother, with my younger brother here, I will never fall into the reputation of Yishui County." This test is indispensable, and the scene of me becoming famous in Yizhou is indispensable, and it will not be difficult for the second brother to do when the time comes. ”

Li Yun said unashamedly, it seemed that he had become the hope among the scholars in Yizhou, and he could not be beaten.

Li Kui frowned slightly, he felt that this kid Li Yun had swelled to the point of not being honest. At your level, you are also worthy of being the hope of a scholar in Yishui County?

But Li Yun didn't notice Li Kui's displeasure, but said with relief: "Second brother, look at you, you are not very old, your father-in-law is so powerful, and she is accompanied by a beautiful girl, this life has reached its peak." Unlike the younger brother, who has no one to support, and his family background is ordinary, he has no choice but to take the imperial examination high school. After speaking, Li Yun was moved by his efforts.

Shaking his head, he suddenly noticed that there was another person next to him.

It's not one more, it's two people to be exact.

Someone was pulling the cattle in front of them, and there was a half-sized man sitting on the animal. Li Yun blinked his eyes for a while, he was a very vigilant person! Why are there two more big living people next to him, but they didn't find it?

"Hey, who are you?"

The road is facing the sky, and each one walks on one side.

But it's more about the pedestrians of the path.

The man who led the animal did not speak, he was a tall man, but he looked a little thin at the back. Because it's the back, I can't tell the age. But he should not be very old, carrying a sandalwood bow on his back, which is slightly rough. Holding a big gun in his hand, although he is walking, his back is straight, and he walks like a fly. Li Yun thought about the Yellowstone bow on his horseback, and suddenly a sense of superiority arose.

However, sitting on the top of the livestock, the half-sized boy looked very unkind, and seemed to be very unaccustomed to Li Yun having been looking at him, so he raised his face angrily and said angrily to Li Yun: "What do you see? ”

Li Yun shrank his head in fright, as if he saw a soil dog, his appearance was honest, but he barked coldly, which made people a little caught off guard.

But after the fright, he was suddenly full of disdain.

Li Yun hasn't seen any big scenes? can still be afraid of a half-sized boy, besides, they are all gentlemen, don't be careful with the chirping of girls. Take a look at what's going on, there's something missing.

Li Yun grinned and said, "Boy, seeing that you are not very old, your temper is not small. But ......" Li Yun suddenly touched his chin, looked at the other party, and saw the other party's hair all the time, so he said quietly: "But brother, although you are young, you can't go out in women's clothes!" How will I marry a daughter-in-law and have children in the future? ”

Li Yun looked like a passer-by, and directly asked the other party to grit his silver teeth, rolled his eyes and said, "Grandma is a big girl." ”

If you say, I will believe it!

Li Yun thought in his heart, his hands were not idle, he took out a bronze mirror from his chest and stuffed it into the other party's hand, and muttered: "Brother, do you believe this yourself?" See for yourself, that looks like a woman? Your appearance is ugly among men! ”

"Ahhh Dengzi, my aunt and you are not finished! While speaking, taking out the slingshot from his waist made Li Yun desperate, but what about Li Yun? The thing was laughing heartlessly on his horse.

The other party trembled angrily, and the man holding the animal turned around, glanced at his sister helplessly, and hugged his fists at Li Kui and Li Yun: "Two brothers, this is really a sister, please be merciful." ”

Only then did Li Yun see clearly that the other party was not very old, and it was estimated that he was about the same as himself.

Li Kui also hugged his fists and said: "Let my brother Tai see and laugh, my brother has a character of Meng Lang, and please Haihan." ”

met a reasonable person, and the other party breathed a sigh of relief. But seeing the other party's outfit, this should be the same as him, going to join the army, right? asked curiously: "I don't know what the military camp is, and when you settle down your sister, you might as well get together." ”

Hearing this, Li Yun was not happy: "I said friend, our dress is so like a soldier in the army?" ”

The other party hesitated for a moment and asked, "Could it be the captain?" ”

"We are readers, students who go to catch the exam." Li Yun almost jumped off his horse angrily and reasoned with the other party.

And the other party was directly depressed, Li Yun rode a horse, and it could be seen that his family was good. The Great Song Dynasty lacked horses, but there was no shortage of walking horses, it was the kind of horse that couldn't run, it could only be used as a pack horse, and it could also be ridden, but it could not be used as a war horse in the army. But even such a walking horse is worth ten times more than the big green mule he is leading, and he really can't take it without five or six hundred yuan.

But should the rider be a scholar?

It can only mean that Li Yun's family is rich, and it can't prove that this guy is a scholar.

Especially when Li Yun was carrying a Pu knife behind his back, and immediately hung a bow and arrows, Li Yun even stuffed an iron whip into his baggage. The guy who robbed the road didn't have everything he could, and this guy even dared to say that he was a scholar. Doesn't it make people laugh out of their big teeth?

Pang Wanchun misunderstood that the other party looked down on him, although he was only sixteen years old, he was also an arrogant person, thinking that Li Yun, a child of a family, looked down on himself from a civilian background. With a cold face, he hugged his fists and said: "Since my friend doesn't want to tell me, I should be Pang Wanchun amorous, so don't ...... it."

"Slow, your name is Pang Wanchun?"

When Li Kui heard Pang Wanchun's name, he was suddenly shocked and couldn't help asking. Pang Wanchun looked up at Li Kui, a little puzzled, he didn't know Li Kui! Why did the other party hear his name and give people the appearance of calling the name of an acquaintance?

"Brother Tai knows you?"

Pang Wanchun asked curiously.

Can Li Kui say that he knows? Besides, he wasn't sure if this Pang Wanchun was really Pang Wanchun, the general under Fang La. Maybe it's just the same name and surname, thinking of this, Li Kui slowly shook his head and said, "I may have recognized the wrong person below." I don't know ...... this brother."

"It's a girl, a girl, a girl!" Pang Qiuxia, who was sitting on the back of the big green mule, gritted her teeth and yelled at Li Kui: "Aunt and grandmother Pang Qiuxia, I'm not done with the two of you." Do you dare to report your name? ”

Li Kui was dumbfounded, Pang Wanchun's name was right, and Pang Qiuxia's name was also right. This should be no run.

He can have the impression that although Pang Qiuxia is not as good as Master Li and the like, she is also the demeanor of a heroic woman, as well as tenderness and shame, heroic and capable, but this big cake face, small nose, small eyes, and a big mouth, combing two pigtails, chubby little fat man, turned out to be Pang Qiuxia?

The TV series is all deceitful, and it is simply harmful!

What's even worse is that it seems that the real Li Kui has been in love with this woman. This is the only time Li Kui has been emotionally attached to a woman, and the scene at that time should be that Yan Qing pulled Li Kui and did not let Li Kui make a mistake again and again. Fortunately, Yan Qing's little white face has the right aesthetic orientation. Otherwise, even if Li Kui and Pang Qiuxia have nothing to do with each other, if they get married under real circumstances, Li Kui, who has changed his bag now, will be disgusted to death by this past.

Li Kui would be emotionally attached to such a woman?

Although this Li Kui has nothing to do with the current Li Kui, he always feels a kind of uncomfortable feeling that has been defiled, Li Kui lowered his head and didn't know what to think again, only he knew: "I thought that watching the TV series, I found that Li Kui didn't like women, but that he didn't find a suitable strange woman who could melt his icy heart." Later, Pang Qiuxia, a woman, lived in Li Kui's heart, but who knew that it turned out to be a bad fate......"

Everyone knows that Li Kui is unreliable, who can know that this guy is unreliable to this extent.

Li Kui was also scared half to death by himself, fortunately he did not inherit Li Kui's aesthetics, if he was really captured by Pang Qiuxia's 'beauty', it would be better to die.
