Chapter 262: The Xie Clan
This is a long way to go to the capital, and the cost is not small. There are twenty taels of silver here, which is a strong walk on the road of Brother Pang! Please also ask Brother Pang not to shirk. Li Kui's move is undoubtedly a send-off. The main reason is that Pang Wanchun is too poor, although he bought livestock, he also took his sister to join the army. But all his expenses along the way were obtained by hunting on the road and selling at the bazaar.
Obviously, Pang Wanchun really doesn't have much money in his pocket.
If Pang Wanchun had enough expenses in his hands, Li Kui would not have come up with a drama of sending money, in his opinion, this kind of drama is too low-level and too level-free.
"Brother Li, you and I meet in Pingshui......"
When Pingshui met, he shot twenty taels of silver. Pang Wanchun hesitated and didn't dare to accept it. Failure to do anything, sudden kindness, will always make people worry about the other party's intentions.
No matter how stupid Pang Wanchun is, he feels that Li Kui's hospitality has a motive. But he looked down at his sister, who was still a little reluctant, and immediately put his heart in his stomach. Even if Li Kui has bad intentions, it is aimed at himself, and it is impossible for him to treat his sister. As far as his sister Pang Qiuxia's appearance really can't get into Li Kui's eyes, since Li Kui has no intentions for his sister, what else can he worry about?
In fact, he still thinks that his sister-in-law is a little delicate, and it is only because he is beautiful, or because he is the light of his eldest brother. After all, his own sister-in-law doesn't even protect him, his own big brother, and his dead parents are afraid that they will come to trouble him in their dreams.
However, Pang Qiuxia looked at Li Kui with a little confused eyes, and recognized that Li Kui would not deceive their brothers and sisters if he said anything, so she took the eldest brother's arm and whispered: "Big brother, put it away, it's not good for people to see it on the street." ”
Pang Wanchun was happy, looked at his sister-in-law lovingly, and said, "Okay, the eldest brother will put it away for you, and give it to you as a dowry in the future." ”
Pang Wanchun is not old-fashioned, and even has the potential of an unscrupulous big brother. often scares his sister with words, and he lied to Pang Qiuxia before that she would become pockmarked if she was stung by a wasp, but it was just his daily routine to scare his sister.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Pang Qiuxia blushed, she was still ignorant of the concept of marrying someone when she was a teenager, but she also knew that she would have to live with a man after getting married, even if she was heartless, she couldn't help but be shy.
Pang Wanchun watched it interestingly, but in addition to being funny, he also knew that the identity difference between them and Li Kui was too far. Since he took the silver, he looked unhappy when he twisted and pinched it, and immediately nodded and said: "This friendship, Pang Mou has a few times." A mountain of swords and a sea of fire, as long as the brothers say a word in the future, Pang will never refuse. ”
Li Kui is really a scholar, and he came to Linyi not to stop by, but to participate in the exam. After knowing this identity, Pang Wanchun felt that Li Kui and them were not people of the same world. Li Kui, who is a scholar, can the Pang family cling to it? Even if Pang Wanchun is a proud person and his archery skills are unique in the world, he can't help but be worried. Fortunately, the girl is only in her teens, so she got married early? Perhaps, in the next few years, Li Kui will be very bad? Coupled with her sister's heartless character, she may forget her brother Li Kui in two years.
Although it's very uncomfortable to have this kind of thought, but for the sake of his sister, he also has some more selfishness.
"Brother Pang, don't leave it at that."
"Take care!"
"Take care!"
"If I don't get into the Jinshi, let's say okay, let's go to Guanzhong to do a big deal together."
Only Li Yun shouted heartlessly, causing passers-by to be amazed. Yizhou people are bold, and they also like to say something that can't be done, although the Great Song people don't look down on the barbarism of the Tangut people, but if they want to bully the Tangut people, they still think too much. How much alcohol does this have to be before you can say it? But Li Yun, who didn't drink, was already very drunk. not only bullied the Xixia people, but relying on Jinshi was almost a fool's dream for Yizhou scholars. Yizhou scholars, in addition to a few families like the Yan family, in the hundred years of the Great Song Dynasty, how many of them can be admitted to the Jinshi?
It is also not afraid of the wind to flash their tongues.
Li Kui turned around and hurried to Linyi City.
He didn't plan to go back with Li Yun, and he didn't even plan to continue this guy by his side. It's too embarrassing, as a reader, it's just that you don't have confidence, and you say Luodi so casually, you think reading is a joke!
In fact, Li Yun can't be blamed, his expectations for his participation in the imperial examination are not high, and he doesn't care if he is poor in reading. Anyway, from the beginning, he didn't think he was the material to be able to get into the jinshi. Besides, his teacher Su Guo took the provincial exam for the first time, and he didn't fall off the list! If the disciple surpasses the teacher for the first time, wouldn't it make Su Guo, a teacher, lose face?
Li Yun is quite good at taking care of people's feelings, but he doesn't know what Su Guo thinks.
As for Li Kui, he really couldn't see Song Jiang's trick of stuffing twenty taels of silver into the hands of the heroes he had just met. Using small favors and small favors to deceive people and sell their lives, it's too much of a thing. But in the end, he did the same thing as Song Jiang, which made him feel uncomfortable. What made him even angrier was ...... It works great.
Jianghu people are different from readers, emphasizing affection and commitment.
Especially a person like Pang Wanchun, who can be said to spit on a nail, he said that he handed over this life to Li Kui, and he had no other thoughts, that is, he really gave his life to Li Kui.
In fact, there is no need for Li Kui to be so troublesome, if Pang Wanchun really enters Cheng Zhijie's military camp, it is not difficult to recruit him. After all, Cheng Zhijie and Li Kui have a good relationship, and several sons-in-law of the Liu family have a very close relationship with Li Kui, so Han Dahu will not talk about it, and the eldest son-in-law Qin Wenguang has even stayed by Su Shi's side.
Lao Liu's family has no sons, although several sons-in-law are not capable of taking charge alone. But if Qin Wenguang's son worships under the Sumen Gate, maybe he can still get a jinshi. Isn't it better than a family that comes from a down-and-out background?
Out of the friendship of the teacher, Li Kui's face cannot be refuted.
It's just that this kind of solicitation is more about the appreciation of superiors and subordinates, and the relationship is not stable. Unless there are big interests, small favors and small favors will not win people's hearts. It's like the relationship between the shopkeeper and his buddy, he has money, he is the shopkeeper, if there is no favor, he is a passerby, or even an enemy. Where can it be compared to the false affection and hypocrisy, using heart-to-heart means to deceive the other party to work for him?
Li Kui was just annoyed, why did he use Song Jiang's set. Song Jiang is not to mention that his face is black and his heart is black, and his methods are despicable enough. Li Kui described himself as a dignified man, and he actually used methods that made him disdainful, which really made him feel bored. But don't use it, Pang Wanchun doesn't want to solicit it, and when the people run away, don't you regret dying?
"Second brother, you don't have to worry, we can get together in a few days."
Li Yun caught up unconsciously, and secretly said to Li Kui: "Even if you have thoughts about Sister Qiuxia, she is still young, and after two years, you may be able to appreciate the hard work of the second brother." ”
Li Kui gritted his teeth angrily, looked at Li Yun's horse buttocks, and suddenly became evil to the side of the guts, and it was a whip when he went up.
The horse was in pain, and immediately spread its hooves and galloped. Li Yun sat on the horse, frightened, and shouted at passers-by: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" ”
After rushing into the city gate, Li Yun was even more nervous, he was not afraid of falling off the horse, and those who practiced martial arts were quick and would not be seriously injured. The main thing is that he is worried about hitting someone and arousing public indignation. There is also his average riding skills, and at this time, he is helpless to appease the mount.
There were people everywhere who couldn't dodge, and they fell to the ground in embarrassment to dodge, and after standing up, they scolded at Li Yun's back: "Look for death!" ”
What can Li Yun do?
You can only shout and warn passers-by: "The war horse is frightened, hide!" ”
While yelling, he struggled to control his mount.
Suddenly, two men rushed out in the middle of the road and stopped Li Yun's place. Seeing that the mount under his crotch was about to be loaded, Li Yun, who was in a hurry, shouted: "Dodge, dodge." Don't you want to die? ”
The two stopped in the middle of the road, and after glancing at each other, they decisively saw the firm confidence in each other's eyes. Du nodded secretly, and said in his heart: "The time has come for me to become famous and famous." ”
Say it's fast, then it's fast. The two squatted down and stepped down, came to a bow horse bridge with a thousand catties, gritted their teeth, and calculated the two brothers, the two arms had the strength of five hundred catties, and the two brothers added up to one thousand catties, saying that it was enough to stop Li Yun's mount, and made up their minds to rely on manpower to withstand the impact of the war horse.
Under Li Yun's crotch is an old horse, almost twenty years old, and he is the kind of colt that can't run. Even such an old horse, riding on it, has a kind of pulling momentum. In particular, this horse turned out to be a dead tree in the spring, and ran at a speed that was not good at what it should have. But after all, when you're old, it's okay to make a wave, and when you run, your speed is full.
In the end, he was foaming at the mouth with his brows on his face, panting like a cow and standing on the street. The distance from the Xie brothers, that is, less than a zhang, stopped.
The Xie brothers looked at each other, and suddenly felt that the great opportunity was missed.
He looked at Li Yun with unwilling angry eyes.
Li Yun didn't know why, he knew that he was calculated by Li Kui. It's not that it's calculated, but just now I said that Li Kui hurt his feet, and then Li Kui was angry and ashamed, and he was retaliated against by this guy again. Li Yunxin said: "Li Kui is just cautious, isn't he just in love with a girl?" What's there? Don't let people say that this is too overbearing. ”
However, this was not the time for him to be in a daze, there were two strong men in front of him, looking at him with stupid eyes. It's indescribably strange, it's like a child who wants to show it, but suddenly someone is in suspense, crying and can't cry, scolding but not daring to scold, and eating yellow lotus in his heart is as heartburn as if he was uncomfortable. One of the men was entangled for a while, and then said, "Brother is Li Yun, the follower of the Tiger Hero. ”
Attendant?
When did he become Li Kui's follower?
Li Yun glared angrily and said angrily: "I'm not a follower. ”
I thought that the other party would refute it, but I didn't expect it to be very easy to speak: "My brother made a mistake, but Li Yun, you are riding on the street, how do you know that the people are innocent!" ”
"The two, who were frightened when they dismounted, and the people who were injured caused by the dismount, are both responsible for the next one." Li Yun is not the kind of person who is arrogant and invincible.
Even if he becomes an official, he will not change.
Li Kui is even more such a person, but Li Kui will be more domineering in the face of powerful and evil. To ordinary people, not only will he not be domineering, but he will lower his body and will not give people a feeling of unattainable.
The scene that the Xie brothers had finally prepared was broken by Li Yun's fluttering words.
At this time, Li Kui also chased after him, but seeing his relaxed expression, he knew that he didn't hurt anyone. He took out a piece of silver and said to the people around him: "Everyone, the horse that gave up my brother just now was frightened for some reason, and I would like to ask you Haihan if something is wrong." Boy Li Kui, please ask this elder to help and drink this piece of silver! ”
Silver could not be drunk, but the exchange of silver for fine wine was enough for everyone present to drink a bowl of good wine.
The people of the Great Song Dynasty are good at drinking, and Li Kui's proposal suddenly made people excited: "This brother is bold enough, he is a man from Yizhou." ”
"Can't you see if it's a man?"
"I remember, two years ago, on the night of the first year, hundreds of thieves were cleaned up on the street, and I looked a little familiar with this strong man."
"Don't talk nonsense, which one is the hero of the Tiger Fight in Shangyuan Night, my first hero in Yizhou."
"Aren't they all called Li Kui?"
"It can't be a real person!"
"It's annoying, the tiger hero ran away, I'll wait to invite it as soon as possible, and I won't return if I don't get drunk!"
……
The Xie brothers, the eldest brother is called Xie Qian, and the brother is called Xie Wan, from Mengshan Academy. The reason why they want to meet Li Kui for a while is mainly because they regard Li Kui as their biggest competitor in this test. Seeing Li Kui leaving, Xie Qian said with annoyance: "It turns out that this Linyi is still Li Kui's home field, and my brothers can only see the real chapter in the examination room." ”
"Big brother, what if Li Kui is quite literary and has tried the martial arts test, and he doesn't participate in the martial arts test?" When the younger brother reminded.
Xie Qian said angrily: "What the hell is your kid from?" Why do you want to increase the morale of others and destroy your own prestige? ”
Xie Wan didn't squeak and followed Xie Qian back, but he muttered in his heart: "Why did he say that he is also a disciple of Sumen!" Can the ink in our brothers' stomachs fall? ”
