Chapter 90: The Teacher
Chen Tang asked the coachman to drive, first to pick up Su Ling, and then go back to the village.
Hearing that he had passed the exam, Su Ling was so happy that she blushed and almost pounced. It was only when I saw that someone else was there that I couldn't help it.
Chenjia Village is full of lights, jubilant and lively.
When the news of Chen Tang High School spread, the whole village immediately boiled.
This is a big event that everyone is happy about.
The state of Yin stipulates that as long as you can make a name for yourself in the examination, you can be exempted from a certain amount of land tax, forced labor, etc.
It can be said that if a village has a lifter, almost all the fields in the village do not have to pay taxes - of course, the premise is that these fields must be recorded in Chen Tang's name.
In contrast, the fame of Xiucai is much more humble, and it can only be exempted from personal errands, and the official does not need to kneel and bow, which cannot benefit the public.
Many cumbersome matters, one after another, fortunately, the potter and the Chen family patriarch and others took care of it, and they were handled in an orderly manner.
These are all human favors.
People do things with affection, and they can't avoid vulgarity, but Chen Tang has a lot of peace of mind, as long as he does it decently and properly, there will be no problem.
Soon, the potter and the patriarch Chen quarreled over who would pay for the construction of a new house for Chen Tang.
Both of them rushed to pay for this favor.
At noon, the horses galloped, and the official who was responsible for delivering the good news and the book of fame arrived, and it was lively again.
Patriarch Chen had already prepared the reward money and stuffed it into the hands of the officials.
For these, Chen Tang was left to them, took the book of merit by himself, and locked it in the room.
Everyone thought that he was in a surging mood and wanted to be quiet alone, so he didn't dare to disturb.
The potter pulled his son aside and sighed: "Ming Jing, your two little sisters married early......"
Tao Hao's head was full of black lines: "Dad, even if the little sister is not married, she is now twenty-five years old, so much older, how can you like it if you are not reserved?"
The potter glared: "Female junior, hugging gold bricks, what do you know?"
After a pause, his eyes lit up: "By the way, your sister-in-law's daughter is seventeen this year, and her age is just right, and the third aunt's youngest daughter Qing'er, fourteen years old, can also talk about marriage......
......
As soon as the door was closed, the hustle and bustle was shut out, and sitting on the chair, Chen Tang began to carefully examine the famous book:
It is about a foot long, quite thick, and sprinkled with gold dust, which looks generous and extravagant. On the paper, Chen Tang's name and nationality and other information are clearly written, and the year, month and time are indicated, and there are several different seals, including those of Xuezheng, those of the Admiral's Mansion, and those of the Inner Curtain Officials......
After reading it, Chen Tang went to check his wrist again, and saw two circles of purple-black grudges, which seemed to take root and were not eliminated.
This time, he had a headache.
After thinking about it, Chen Tang decided to go to the teacher's house and pay respects.
Chen Song is his teacher, and now Chen Tang High School, it is reasonable to go to the spirit to offer incense to thank the teacher.
Due to the choice of auspicious day, Chen Song's corpse has not yet been buried, and is still parked on the mourning hall.
But before seeing the corpse, an offering table was set up to worship, a bowl of grains, a mouthful of incense burner, and some snacks and cakes. There are all kinds of paper work, paper people, paper horses, etc. Two white flags, one left and one right.
Chen Tang came to pay tribute, and his wife Wang put on filial piety clothes, brought a grandson, and came to receive him.
After a bow ceremony, Chen Tang took out the book of merit again, and recited words in his mouth, indicating that he had fulfilled his last wish......
Suddenly, a dark wind blew in the mourning hall.
"Oops!"
Wang Shi was so frightened that he shuddered, and his fingers were suddenly a figure, and he couldn't speak.
The child was innocent by nature, and called out crisply, "Grandpa, you're back." ”
wanted to come over and hold his grandfather's hand, but Wang hurriedly hugged him.
Chen Tang looked at the teacher who appeared and felt weird.
Chen Song walked up to Wang and said softly: "Biqing, I don't think about it, I can be a teacher." ”
When Wang heard this, tears flowed down his eyes, and he cried: "You have been dead for a long time, why do you say that you are noble? Once you are gone, please don't be weird and scare. ”
When Chen Song heard this, his body trembled, and when he saw the spiritual corpse in the room, he sighed, and looked at the book of merit in Chen Tang's hand, and wanted to reach out and touch it, but as soon as his fingers stretched out, he was immediately shocked by something, and quickly retracted it. He glanced at Chen Tang deeply, his wrinkled old face suddenly smiled, and he was gratified. The figure was in front of the corpse, and it was extinguished on the ground, and then the yin wind dissipated, but when he saw the ground, he left a set of clothes, which was the clothes that Chen Song wore before his death.
Seeing this, Wang immediately burst into tears.
Chen Tang sighed gloomily, then felt a slight coolness at his wrists, rolled up his sleeves to watch, and saw two purple and black marks, which were eliminated little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon disappeared.
At the same time, two cool breaths submerged into the meridians and merged with the heavenly and human qi.
Chen Tang's spirits were lifted, as if he had drunk a glass of ice water on a hot day, his whole body was refreshed, and he was so uncomfortable.
This is what Zhan Yangchun said, the benefits that can be obtained after completing the grievance, which is really wonderful.
Chen Tang felt that these two cool qi nourishing were comparable to the qi of heaven and man who had been practicing hard for two years, and he suddenly became stronger.
At present, the biggest problem with his martial arts is that the true qi in his body is scarce and cannot last, but due to the limitation of the number of runs every day, there is no shortcut, so he has to accumulate it every day. However, it is very beneficial to resolve the grievances now, saving two years of hard work.
If there is a similar grudge......
Forget it, or don't.
Greedy thoughts will lead people to the pit.
This time to worship the teacher, Chen Tang gave six hundred and one dollars of gold. This amount of money is enough for the Wang family to live a good life.
In fact, Chen Song's family background is not bad in the village, middle and upper level.
But the level of contrast is always different.
Leave the teacher's house and return to the house.
In this village, pigs and sheep are being slaughtered, and a feast is started, which is very lively.
Chen Tang naturally didn't pay attention to these trivial matters and still stayed in the room.
This time out of the city, he easily brought back the Heavenly Sword Box, put it in the book, and took it out at this time.
The aura of heaven and man has grown a little, and Chen Tang wants to visit the sword box again. I remember last time, he vaguely felt something inside the box, but due to the weak breath, he couldn't be sure.
The hand pressed on the sword box, slowly entered the state, and the breath flowed, gradually entering the sword box......
Buzz!
Soon, Chen Tang felt the object inside.
This time, it became clearer. Although it is not a complete wide field of vision, from head to toe, the general outline shape is basically revealed, and it can be explored.
The object, long in shape, nearly three feet long, three or four fingers wide, appeared thick and wide.
At the first time, Chen Tang was sure: this is a sword.
Inside the sword box, it's not empty, but there's a sword hidden!
