Several people looked at him, as if they were a little impressed by him. Miss He looked at him quietly, and even the middle-aged man surnamed Zhao was a little surprised.

"Alas, why does this cat on your body keep its eyes closed?" Xiao Cui suddenly found that there was still a cat in Lin Xiuwen's arms, and asked in surprise.

The fat tiger raised his eyelids, waved his paws, turned around and closed his eyes again.

"That's it!" Lin Xiuwen explained lightly.

"I heard that you want to ask me about the news?" The middle-aged man surnamed Zhao had a much better attitude towards him at this time, and took the initiative to find him to start a conversation.

"Exactly, I am not from Northern Qi, but from Yan State, I first entered Northern Qi and didn't know anything about Northern Qi, so I wanted to find someone to inquire. Lin Xiuwen is not humble or silent.

Then Miss He and Xiaocui had already pricked up their ears at this time.

"You also fled?" asked the middle-aged man surnamed Zhao.

"It's not enough to flee, Yan Guo will not starve to death of meritorious scholars. Lin Xiuwen said, scholars have feelings for their family and country, and basically they will not flee. He can't say that he is a fugitive, and it is insulting to Sven.

He didn't admit it, and the current few people only thought that he was embarrassed to admit it because of his face. I felt more and more that Lin Xiuwen had come to Northern Qi to flee, and there was no lack of pity in his expression.

"What do you call it, little brother? My name is Zhao Wen, and they all call me Lao Zhao. Zhao Wen asked, introducing his name by the way.

"In Shimobayashi Xiuwen. Lin Xiuwen got up and bowed his hand.

"Ah, your name is Lin Xiuwen too?" Xiao Cui exclaimed, and Miss He's eyes were also staring at him tightly.

"May I ask if there is any problem with the name?" Lin Xiuwen asked lightly.

"Xiaocui is rude, I'll compensate Gongzi on her behalf, but the little girl heard that there is a talented man named Lin Xiuwen in your Yan country, also called Lin Xiuwen, I don't know if it's a child?" Miss He looked at him nervously and asked with an expectant face.

"It shouldn't be in the next two years, but I have never set foot in the scholars. Lin Xiuwen realized that it was not the talent he asked and not himself, so he explained lightly.

"Then have you ever participated in the imperial examination?" This Miss He seemed to be very obsessed with the talented man with the same name as him, and continued to ask without giving up.

"I participated two years ago and won the promotion in Yanguo North County. Lin Xiuwen said lightly, and he didn't have the pride that others had when they mentioned his fame, as if this fame was not worth mentioning in his opinion.

"Emily. Go and get my poetry book!" Miss He instructed Xiao Cui.

Lin Xiuwen was shocked in his heart, the secret path would not be so coincidental.

Xiao Cui soon returned, holding a book of poetry in her hand, and she handed it to Miss and said, "Here you go, Miss." ”

"Can Lin Gongzi recognize the first few poems?" Miss He took the poetry collection in her hand, turned a few pages, handed the book to Lin Xiuwen, and asked a little nervously.

He took the collection of poems in his hand, and saw that the details on the cover of the hair were written "A Collection of Poems of the Yan Kingdom", and when he turned the first few pages, it was the masterpiece that he plagiarized from his ancestors when he participated in the imperial examination. He closed the book and nodded at Miss He, his face remained unchanged, and he said in a light tone: "This poem is indeed mine, and it was written in Qingshan City when I participated in the imperial examination. ”

"Hiss" Miss He took a long breath, got up and saluted Lin Xiuwen: "I have heard the name of the prince for a long time, and the concubine He Caihong is so polite." Yan Guo is rumored to be like a comet, Lin Gongzi appeared sideways with four world-class poems, topped the high school list three times in a row, and won the Xie Yuan, but unfortunately it also disappeared like a comet, and no one in Yan Guo has seen him in recent years. But I never thought that I would meet my son again, it is really a blessing in my third life!" He Caihong seemed to admire and admire Lin Xiuwen incomparably, and his words were full of admiration and admiration.

As soon as He Caihong's words came out, everyone looked at Lin Xiuwen in surprise. "Everything is inferior, but reading is high." The status of scholars is very high in the feudal dynasty, especially the kind of scholars who have a meritorious reputation.

They never expected that the young scholar beside them, who looked more delicate and generous, would be Xie Yuan from a county.

"It's just a name. Lin Xiuwen waved his hand and said without any care.

Seeing that Lin Xiuwen was so indifferent, it didn't look like a fake, and they admired Lin Xiuwen more and more.

"Uncle Zhao, can you tell me more about this Northern Qi Kingdom?" Lin Xiuwen asked Zhao Wen.

"I have as many as seven counties in Northern Qi, five counties in the southeast, northwest and east and west, each with a county, where we are at this time, is the East Wilderness, because it is too barren and rarely populated, so you rarely see pedestrians on the road. After arriving in the Eastern Wilderness City, there will be a lot of them. Zhao Wen admired Lin Xiuwen and explained carefully for him.

"I don't know where Lin Gongzi is going?" He Caihong asked Lin Xiuwen.

"Haha, to be honest, I don't know where I'm going? He said with a calm face.

He Caihong pondered a little and invited him: "Since Gongzi Lin has nowhere to go for the time being, can you come to my mansion for a few days and treat Gongzi well," After speaking, she looked at Lin Xiuwen with a look of hope.

Lin Xiuwen groaned and did not answer.

"Yes, Lin Gongzi, you can come to our house as a guest. The Eastern Wilderness City is bustling and lively, and it will be convenient for you to go out to play when the time comes, I heard that there are immortals in the Eastern Wilderness City, it's a pity that you don't go to see it!" Xiao Cui also helped Lin Caihong persuade her.

"Immortals?" Lin Xiuwen asked suspiciously.

The countries that Lin Xiuwen has been to are all immortal cultivators and mortals who do not interfere with each other, mortals can't come into contact with immortal cultivators, and immortal cultivators won't surrender their identities to pay attention to mortals, of course, except for himself.

As if seeing Lin Xiuwen's doubts, he explained to Lin Xiuwen: "About three years ago, a person came to our Eastern Wilderness City, and he opened a Taoist temple in our Eastern Wilderness City. Later, everyone gradually found out that the master of this Taoist temple is very capable, just like an immortal, and everyone thinks that he is an immortal. ”

"Ah, that's interesting, I have to check it out. Lin Xiuwen said to himself, and at that moment, he said to He Caihong: "Then bother Miss He." ”

He Caihong's face was overjoyed when she heard this, and she said casually: "Don't disturb, don't hinder it." ”

Suddenly, the neighing of horses and the sound of horses' hooves came, and a ball of fire gradually appeared, illuminating the mountains and forests in the distance, like a large number of people, rushing quickly.

"Uncle Zhao!" He Wu exclaimed.

"Oh no, it's a horse thief!" Zhao Wendao.

"Uncle Zhao, what should we do?" Xiao Cui said in horror.

"The other party's speed is too fast, we can't run at this time, for the sake of now, we can only try to meet the horse thief's requirements, I hope he can let us go, Xiaocui, paste some mud on the young lady's face!" Zhao Wen calmly analyzed.

A large group of people arrived in a blink of an eye, and sure enough, it was a group of horse thieves.

They rode horses and surrounded the people of the He family's convoy. The leader of the bandits is a middle-aged man with bright eyes and a very shrewd look.

The firelight illuminated the area, reflecting the faces of the crowd, each with sweat on their faces, showing the tension and uneasiness inside.

A young man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks came out next to the middle-aged man, and shouted loudly: "Call out all the things before!"

Seeing that everyone didn't move, Zhao Wen persuaded everyone: "Everyone listen to this master and hand over all the valuable things on your body." After a pause, Zhao Wen said to the bandit leader again: "Heroes, can you let us go, we are just passing merchants." After saying that, he stared at the bandit leader with nervous eyes.

The bandit leader ignored him and looked at another man next to him, who understood and shouted, "The man is killed, and the woman and things are taken away." ”

Before the words fell, the bandit leader's expression suddenly changed and shouted, "Wait a minute." His eyes swept through the crowd, and when he saw the back of the nonchalant white-clothed scholar, his face became genuinely frightened, and his whole body trembled, as if he had seen something terrifying.

He took a deep breath and shouted, "Don't take anything, let's withdraw!", after saying that, he directly turned his horse and "drove" back.

The people of the He family's convoy looked at all this blankly, could it be that the horse thieves are so easy to talk now?

"Why, big boss? The brothers have been staring at it all afternoon, and they have run so far. "Horse thieves are the most lawless, how can it be that the bandit leader will not rob him if he says a word.

"That's it, big boss, why, why don't you rob it, it's all here. ”

"That's right, boss. ”

"Big boss!"

The horse thieves were noisy and just wouldn't go.

"Ahh

I saw the bandit leader slash at the first horse thief who was coaxing, and blood splattered and sprinkled on the faces of several horse thieves next to him.

"Big boss, you ......" The young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks next to him stared at him with wide eyes, wanting to say something, but swallowed it after seeing the fierce and cruel eyes of the bandit leader. He knew that if he continued to say more, he would die immediately.

The bloody methods of the big boss frightened the horse thieves, and for a while, no one dared to act rashly.

The crowd in the convoy did not dare to come out, and they did not understand why the horse thieves suddenly became infighting. They did not dare to come out of the atmosphere, for fear of attracting the attention of the horse thieves, arousing the ferocity of the horse thieves, and attacking them.

"If you still think of me as your big brother, listen to me today, let's go!" shouted the bandit leader, his voice full of cruelty and ferocity.

Obviously, if you don't go, you die!

Under the fear of death, the horse thieves finally suppressed the greed in their hearts, after all, if there is no life, it is useless to grab more things!

Everyone in the He family's convoy was full of joy, and they simply escaped death.

While being happy, some young men asked, "Uncle Zhao, what happened, and how did they leave in the end? Don't even want anything?"

"You don't care so much, you melon baby, you don't want the horse thief to kill you, aren't you!" Zhao Wen himself was at a loss, where could he answer his question, and pretended to be vicious.

"Yes, the horse thief even gave up the robbery at the expense of infighting, tsk, this is really a strange news in the world!" He Wu also said excitedly.

"Miss, we're so lucky! Xiaocui said excitedly to He Caihong, paused, and then joked to Lin Xiuwen: "Nerd, tell my sister honestly, are you scared stupid." ”

Lin Xiuwen smiled and did not speak. He hadn't moved just now, and it was normal for some people to think that he was scared silly.

He Caihong breathed a long sigh of relief and didn't speak, she always felt that this matter was a little weird. No one noticed that the cat in Lin Xiuwen's arms disappeared at some point.

After a night of silence, the crowd fell asleep in the joy of escaping death, and a cat returned from the darkness.
