Chapter 5 Returning to his hometown and being robbed
After hearing the story told by the divine operator Zhuge Yun, Ye Jiu sighed helplessly with a wry smile in his heart: "His grandmother's told me as a story in a book, and I don't know what will happen to me in the future." ”
Next, the storyteller told another story about the battle of the Daliang border pass.
The story is told like this, there is a young man named Mu Yunfei in Daliang Kyoto.
Mu Yunfei was born in the Mu family, one of the major families in Kyoto, because he liked to use swords and guns since he was a child, and he rode horses and archery. Therefore, the people of Mu Mansion let Mu Yunfei join the army when he was very young.
In the army, he performed well and often made military exploits.
What's even more remarkable is that he killed countless people outside the gate a few months ago, made great contributions to Daliang, and was named a major general by Emperor Daliang, which can be regarded as a very accomplished young hero.
And the horse race held by the Mu family two days ago is this person.
Zhuge Yun deliberately told Ye Jiu and Mu Yunfei as stories, forming a stark contrast.
This also made Ye Jiu's name louder and more harsh in Kyoto.
After the two returned to the guest house, they saw that Ye Jianjun and Ye Lang had returned.
Ye Jiu said to Ye Jianjun: "When will we go back to Qinglong Town, if we want to leave tomorrow, I don't want to stay here." ”
After hearing this, Ye Lang rushed to say happily: "If I don't go back tomorrow, I will take the palace test in seven days, and I will be crowned an official then." ”
Ye Jianjun followed: "Yes! We're going back in about half a month, you and Ye Tian are playing in Kyoto, wait for us! ”
Ye Tian said that he could, and he could have a good time when the time came.
Ye Jiu said: "I don't want to stay in Kyoto, why don't I go back alone first, and then you will come back together." ”
Ye Jianjun thought for a while and said, "It's okay, but you should pay more attention to safety on the road alone, hurry during the day, and rest at night." ”
Ye Jiu replied, "I will, thank you Elder." ”
After speaking, Ye Jiu went back to the room, packed his luggage and went on the road.
Seeing Ye Jiu's back, Ye Tian didn't speak; Ye Jianjun sighed, and Ye Lang scolded.
"Phew..."
"What a useless thing, shit."
Ye Jiu left the guest room and walked the same way he came for several days.
On this day, Ye Jiu walked to noon, and there was no one on the official road at this time.
Suddenly, Ye Tian heard the sound of horses' hooves, and after a while, he saw several people riding horses walking towards Ye Jiu, and these people surrounded Ye Jiu.
The young man who took the lead said, "I planted this tree, I opened this road, and I want to pass by from here, leaving the road to buy money." ”
Ye Jiu said in a panic: "Who are you, you are afraid that you are a bandit on the mountain, are you trying to rob me?" ”
After hearing this, several people laughed: "You are so fucking stupid and cute, Lao Tzu is robbing you today!" You're not convinced! ”
"Haha..."
After laughing again, he said: "Boy, if you know the image, quickly take out the money on your body and hand it to us, uncle, we will leave you a whole corpse, otherwise you will regret coming to this world." ”
Ye Jiu was unmoved, but he was thinking about how to get out in his heart, although he was still a little worried, it was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Seeing this, the leader said: "It seems that you don't want to hand it over, right?" I really don't shed tears when I don't see the coffin, right? Brothers, since he is so ignorant, then we scraped him alive. ”
"Brothers, do it."
But at this moment, there was another sound of horses, and then I saw a group of officers and soldiers running over quickly, and without saying a word, they quickly knocked several bandits to the ground, and all the bandits were tied up with ropes.
At this time, Ye Jiu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Then he said to the officers and soldiers: "Thank you for the rescue of the officers and brothers." ”
The person who took the lead in the officers and soldiers asked: "Little brother, what is your name, how can you walk this road alone, although this is an official road, but it is very close to this 10,000-mile mountain, there are many thieves in the 10,000-mile mountain, they are ghostly, they often come out to rob, even the government has no way to take 100 million people, you have to be more careful." ”
"My name is Ye Jiu, and I went to Kyoto and failed the scientific expedition, so I went home to Qinglong Town alone. I don't know how the younger brother calls the eldest brothers, he will definitely repay today's kindness if he has the opportunity to do so. ”
The official who took the lead said: "My name is Mu Guiding, I am a thousand-commander, they are the soldiers I bring, we went back to Kyoto to do business, just after finishing it, we came out of Kyoto, we want to go to the border pass, I happened to pass by here, I saw the bandits, so I came over, little brother, you are not injured!" ”
Ye Jiu said: "Fortunately, you came at the right time, if it was a little later, I would really have something to do." ”
"By the way, what else do they do?" Ye Jiu pointed to the bandits on the ground and said.
Mu Guiding said: "A few of them will be dealt with later, your road is still far away, let's go first!" ”
Okay, then I'll go first. After Ye Jiu finished speaking, he turned around and left, and just walked a few steps before turning around.
Several officials were more curious when they saw Ye Jiu just leave and turned around.
Mu Guiding smiled and asked, "Is there anything else that the little brother has come back to?" ”
Ye Jiu smiled and said, "Brother Mu, are you still recruiting troops there?" I want to go with you to join the army. ”
Mu Guiding did not answer, but asked rhetorically, "Why are you?" You have just taken the scientific examination, although you did not pass the examination, but there is still hope, you must not give up. ”
Although this was a good word, Ye Jiu knew that the other party was rejecting him.
So he said: "I've failed the list three times, I don't want to take the test, and I don't have a chance to refer to the test." I chose to join the army with you, not on a whim, but because I thought about myself for a long time, I wanted to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy. Go to the army to sharpen yourself. Although my body is relatively weak, I believe that as long as I work hard, the deeper my kung fu, the more I can sharpen the big iron rod into a needle. ”
Mu Guiding thought for a while, looked at a few of his subordinates next to him and said, "What do you think, what do you think?" ”
Seeing that no one answered, a small soldier who was not tall said, he said: "Brother Mu, I think his appearance seems to be serious, you can let him try it with us, it just so happens that Bian Guan is still recruiting troops." ”
Everyone else nodded in support.
Mu Guiding saw that everyone agreed to let Ye Jiu go, so he nodded and asked, "Aren't you going back to Qinglong Town?" When you go to the scene and choose to go to the border with us, how can you go back? ”
Ye Jiu replied: "If you don't go back, I'm embarrassed to go back, the road of the world is like the road of life, there are countless paths, as long as it is meaningful, you can change it at any time, and change the path at any time." ”
Mu Guiding smiled when he heard this: "That's right, if we go wrong on the road of this world; If you can change, you will change, and you can change for the better, and you can't go all the way to the dark. The ancients were fickle and unchanging, and mediocre. ”
