After Shusun Tong walked out of the gate of the courtyard, he saw more than 100 people waiting there.

"Hello Mr. Uncle Sun!"

Seeing Uncle Sun Tong, one of them stepped forward to make a gesture, and his posture was quite decent.

Shusun Tong was very satisfied, at least these people were not as high as Jia Xiong.

But when he looked at the others, he found that something was wrong, if he was a student, he would definitely say hello when he saw him, even if his reputation was damaged at the moment, even if he didn't say hello, he wouldn't have such an expression.

What's that expression? All of them have a straight face, as if they are facing an enemy in front of them.

There is also that eye, there is something hidden deep in the Tao that cannot be broken, this thing, the uncle and grandson are afraid when they see it.

It is impossible for a student to have such a look.

However, Jia Xiong said that they were students, and Shusun Tong could only treat them as students.

"Let's go!"

A group of people marched vigorously, passing through the downtown area, crossing the crossing, sweeping the shade of trees, attracting a lot of attention, and soon appeared on the way to Chang'an Township.

At this moment, in the same place, there was a carriage speeding past hundreds of people, two people driving, and in it sat a noble son, and some boxes were piled up in the carriage.

"Young master, are all these students from Chang'an Township?" A servant asked the son in the carriage.

Yes, these people wear the usual clothes of students, and they are hundreds of people when they come, which is very similar to the style of students.

Moreover, this road is the only way to Chang'an Township, so it is no wonder that the slaves say so.

When the noble son heard this, he lifted the curtain, looked out, and felt strange in his heart.

Judging from the clothing, he is indeed a student, but he feels that something is wrong from it, the temperament of these people is completely different from that of ordinary students.

What does it feel like? He couldn't tell.

Looking further ahead, the leader was a middle-aged man, well-dressed, but his face was melancholy and he was in a hurry.

"He is." Huagui Gongzi was a little familiar with this person, so he thought about it, and gradually he was surprised, he remembered, "Isn't this waiting for Dr. Zhao's uncle and grandson?" ”

"He's here again?"

The last time Uncle Sun Tong visited Chang'an Township, the price of the second book soared to a huge price, which everyone knows, and the noble son naturally knows it.

Glancing at the hundreds of students again, especially when he saw the indifferent and terrifying eyes, the noble prince was stunned, his heart was shocked, and he hurriedly urged: "Hurry, rush to Chang'an Township as soon as possible, I want the teacher to know about this as soon as possible." ”

Huagui Gongzi is the son of Shen, he has also heard of hundreds of students in Chang'an Township last time, I heard that it hurt a lot of people, and then look at the expressions of these students at this moment, it must be that the comer is not good, plus the uncle and grandson who have no way out.

He concluded that these people were going to Chang'an Township, and they must have made trouble again.

"Okay! Sit down the young master. With a flick of the whip, the carriage sped up and headed quickly towards Chang'an Township.

After a fuss from the students, Chang'an Township has now arranged for slavery to be on duty.

The carriage stopped, and Shen Gongzi hurriedly jumped out of it, and he didn't have time to take care of his bags before he found Li Zhao.

The last apprentice was already well known to the enslavement, and his arrival was not hindered, and he soon went inside.

"Teacher, teacher, Shen is here." Before the young man arrived, the sound spread everywhere.

Others are not surprised, the housekeeper has already told everyone that there will be two more people in Chang'an Township in the future, one is noble, and the other is the second in the imperial examination, both of which are rare talents.

Shen Gongzi searched for a few corners and finally found Li Zhao.

"Teacher, those students are here again, and there are uncles and grandsons."

Li Zhao was not surprised to hear this.

The second book is the book of the imperial examination, and it is very popular among students, but these two books are so expensive, it is normal for them to come to the door.

And Uncle Sun Tong, in order to fulfill His Majesty's will, he will definitely come again, and he will not watch himself fall into the quagmire.

"Oh! This is normal! Li Zhao's reaction was mediocre.

"No, it's not normal at all." Shen Gongzi was in a hurry.

He just felt that it was abnormal, ordinary students came to the door because of the price of the second book, and there were only two expressions, one was angry, and the other was full of sadness.

But these students are not, they do not have any change in expression, but have coldness and indifference in their eyes, which is by no means the average student.

"They were very strange, and there seemed to be murder in their eyes."

Li Zhao glanced at Shen Gongzi and smiled slightly, he felt that Shen Gongzi thought too much, but he didn't refute it, Shen Gongzi's attitude proved that he had recognized him as a teacher and regarded himself as a native of Chang'an Township.

That's a good thing!

Of course!

If these students want to make trouble, he can't stop it, but he can still do it.

Then he immediately summoned all the slaves and peasants, and summoned Wuquan and the others.

Wuquan and others have only been training for a few days, and it is still a little difficult to really become a guard, but with their physique, they can also resist some students.

A student is always a student, not a soldier in the army.

Everyone gathered at the door, some holding farm tools, some holding long sticks, and some rolling up their sleeves, vowing to fight with the students to the end.

No fist is worthy of being a soldier, that courage is not comparable to ordinary people, he led more than 20 people in front, and the four-piece suit was moved out, fully armed, but the outfit is a bit unremarkable.

The army-green uniform enveloped the whole person, revealing only the eyes, and he was wearing a thick glove in his hand, and the glove held a seemingly soft thing.

Yes, this thing is soft, not as straight and hard as a stick, but like a horse's tail.

In the other hand, he held something unheard of, and this thing was made of even more peculiar material.

However, everyone has long been accustomed to some strange things in Chang'an Township, and they were not surprised for long, so they unanimously put their eyes not far from the door.

Soon, a mighty team of mermaids came in, and the leader was Uncle Sun Tong.

Li Zhao saw clearly, these people were really like what Shen Gongzi said, they were not like ordinary students, but like soldiers from the army.

They have a looming murderous aura on them, even if they wear the dress of a student, they will not change their temperament.

Li Zhao frowned.

"I've seen General Lee! This time, I came abruptly, please forgive me. ”

As soon as Uncle Sun Tong arrived, he immediately put on a respectful posture, not wanting to make a fuss at all, obviously, his arrival was not to threaten Chang'an Township, but to sincerely repent.

Li Zhao's heart was relieved, but he felt surprised.

This situation is rare, and I quickly let down my guard, feeling that the origin of the murderous aura of these students is all because of the price of the second book.

"What is the matter with the gentleman?" Li Zhao asked deliberately.

Seeing that Uncle Sun Tong had such an attitude, Li Zhao didn't mean to be embarrassed, after all, he didn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person!

But the meaning also has to be stumbled.

Uncle Sun Tong smiled bitterly, isn't it clear why he came here? However, he still said: "The notice is wrong, I implore General Li to ignore the past suspicions and lower the price a little, it is really too expensive for two thousand and a half taels, and most students can't afford it!" ”

Li Zhao seemed to smile, "Oh! So what, I've already set the price and reopened the bookstalls in the eastern suburbs, it's their business that they can't afford it, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

"Also, you brought so many students today, this is the attitude you asked me to have."

The face was slightly furled.

"No" Uncle Sun Tong was in a hurry, Li Zhao was going to stick to the end, "Tong doesn't mean this, these students all can't afford to buy the second book, so they came together to ask General Li for mercy, and they have no malicious intent." ”

"Yes, we have no ill will."

When a student walked out of the column, he was the leader of the students, followed closely behind Shusun Tong, and the words came out of his mouth.

"General Li, you and the rest of your family are strapped for money, and you really can't come up with so much money to buy the second book, please forgive me." The man fell to his knees and looked pitiful.

"The villain's family has a small number of people, there is not much fertile land, there is only a little surplus grain throughout the year, and he can't make a full meal, how can he come up with four thousand and a half taels."

"The villain is obsessed with the imperial examination, but he doesn't want to give up because of the obstruction of the second book, I hope that General Li will be merciful and give the villain a clear way."

At present, the road to the imperial examination is a clear road.

As he spoke, he left tears of sadness, which showed that he had reached an embarrassing situation.

"Yes! If it weren't for the shyness in our pockets, we wouldn't dare to disturb General Li, hoping that General Li would give us a future. The other students gave up their hands and said that they were distressed.

Li Zhao listened, and his heart was a little touched.

In fact, he still has some understanding of the current situation in Daqin, Daqin's taxes are too heavy, most of the land is concentrated in the hands of the powerful, and they are full landlords, they always have a concept, that is, the people are untouchables, and the untouchables should not have more, as long as they don't starve to death.

Most of the students are peasants or children of poor families, all of whom are poor and poor, and they can't even save surplus grain, so how can they get four thousand and a half taels.

These are all the drawbacks of Daqin!

According to the previous idea, the sale of the second book began to buy dozens and a half of two yuan, and then slowly reduced the price, part of the purpose is also to let more people afford the second book.

This is known as small profits and quick turnover.

But he was angry at Shusun Tong's ban, so he behaved like this.

He didn't speak, closing his eyes as if thinking about something.

What no one knew was that just as the student was leading out, the fistless face in the army-green stab-proof suit suddenly frowned, and his eyes were staring at the leader.

This person, give him a sense of familiarity.

His body moved, and his footsteps moved slowly, moving to Li Zhao's side, as close as possible to Li Zhao.

Li Zhao took a deep breath, his gaze swept over the many praying students, and fell on the leader of the students.

"Why do you want to take the imperial examination?" He moved his feet, slowly approaching the leader.

With longing in his eyes, the leader said firmly: "Change the status quo and fight for the old mother at home." ”

This is what most students think, and Li Zhao naturally feels the same way.

In his previous life, he was a dick, his parents were farmers, and his parents worked hard for him to study, all so that he could get ahead.

The students at this moment are also true.

"Do you know the difficulty of the imperial examination?"

Li Zhao's footsteps were a few points closer.

"You have no regrets about this, whether you are successful or not."

It can be seen that this person's heart is strong in the imperial examination, and Li Zhao feels more deeply, isn't this a portrayal of his previous life?

This is a person who sympathizes with the same disease, and if it is really because the second book is too expensive and hinders them from the imperial examination, it is really ruthless.

Li Zhao's determination began to loosen, and his steps continued to move forward, reaching the lead, his hands spread out, he wanted to help this student, cheer him up, and help the majority of such students.

Their words touched him, he wanted to make these students able to read, and he wanted to change Daqin's predicament.

"Get up!"

Li Zhao had already arrived in front of the leader, and his hands were stretched out to him.

What no one knew was that when Li Zhao's action appeared, the leader's pathetic expression immediately changed drastically, and it became hideous.

The next moment, he reached into his arms and quickly pulled something out of it.

At the previous moment, Wuquan followed Li Zhao closely, his steps became heavier and heavier, and his heart slowly picked up, but his mind kept thinking, and then, he was shocked, and a picture appeared in his mind, a wicked person.

That year, the main general of the Xianyang garrison was not Jia Xiong, he was not a slave, but a guard under the command of the former commander, that day, the deputy general Jia Xiong suddenly led people into the camp of the former commander, and killed the former commander, and he, as a guard, tried his best to resist, but he was helpless, and was seriously injured by the people brought by Jia Xiong, and finally disposed of as a corpse secretly.

Fortunately, he was blessed with a great life, he was only seriously injured, and did not die, so he survived and was taken into slavery.

He never forgot the attack that day, a group of wicked men who were fierce and cruel, with blood everywhere they fell, and the leader was the man in front of him.

The leader didn't recognize the fistless who was covered by the stab-proof suit, he took out a broken knife and stabbed it fiercely while Li Zhao was not paying attention.

"Die!" The voice was fierce.

At the same time, a voice came.

"Young master, it's not good, quickly retreat, fast" is the voice of Wuquan.

But what about this sound reminder?

Li Zhao was shocked, he couldn't react, and when he saw the short knife that flashed with cold light, his mind seemed to go black all of a sudden, and his body was completely uncontrollable.

"How dare you" Li Zhao exclaimed, but it didn't help, the short knife had arrived, and there was a vicious voice, "You shouldn't hinder Jia Xiong." ”

Li Zhao watched the short knife approaching his lower abdomen, his hands and feet seemed to be unconscious, death came, and his heart sank to the bottom.

However, at this moment, a figure rushed quickly and pushed him aside fiercely.

Laugh at!

This is the sound of a short knife stabbing in.

Li Zhao, who was pushed away, was shocked, and when he saw it, it was Wuquan who pushed him away, and at this moment the short knife was fiercely inserted into Wufist's abdomen, perhaps it was a conditional reaction, or the pain was unbearable, Wuquan held the short knife, covered the stabbing place, and sat on the ground fiercely, and blood oozed from his hands.

"No punches!" Li Zhao was shocked, his eyes were about to bulge, and his eyes were extremely angry.

Quickly swept over the fistless, staring at the leader, the man who was pitiful just now.

"Whoever dares to hurt me, kill, kill them for me."

At this moment, Li Zhao roared angrily, completely forgetting that he was surrounded by slaves and peasants, with no combat experience, let alone a strong physique.

Yes, his guard, only about two dozen people.

"Kill? Just by them? Ha ha! The leader's expression was hideous, and he completely turned into a person, and then, with a wave of his big hand, the students behind him turned into murderous bandits.

Hohoo ho!

They drew their swords that were hidden somewhere, and pointed them at Li Zhao with a groan.

"Who are you?" Li Zhao's eyes full of anger stared at the leader, and his hands subconsciously stretched out into his arms, where there was half a tael.

"The one who killed you."
