In the village that took root in the middle of the Wenshan Mountain, a gloomy man dressed as a scholar leaned against the chair that only a big master could do on weekdays, holding a wine jug in his right hand, his left sleeve was empty, the wine jug was hanging up, and the wine poured out and drank, and he didn't care about the overflowing wine, and he wet a Confucian white dress along his stubble face.

The housekeeper of the Sun family called a long time at the door of the cottage, where someone opened the door, it is strange to say, the last time I came, I didn't say that the crowd was thriving, just the wooden house guard tower at the door of the door there were people on shift to put the whistle, today the whistle that came, if it wasn't for the occasional birds chirping in the mountains, it really responded to the silent four words, and then it was really equal to waiting, always can't go back with empty news, although you can't beg for a beating, you can't avoid a reprimand, people of his age, how much is left to fight for merit and reward, the next human right is too big, or a subordinate, can you be bigger than the master? At present, the desperate efforts are just for the benefit of future generations.

The housekeeper of the Sun family hesitated again and again, so he had to push the door in, it seemed to be a light wooden door, but it was very heavy, and he wasted a lot of energy, only to move out of the gap between one person, he was already top-heavy, his head was sweating, and he had to shake his head, his old bones were really old.

The general appearance of the cottage, where there is the smell of living people, the wine jar opened on the stone table is estimated to be in a hurry, the future and the plug, even the black bowl that holds the wine, still contains the wine.

The old housekeeper shook his head, it seems that today is destined to be nothing, I wanted to turn around and go back, but I felt a little itchy in my heart, not to mention what happened to the cottage, even if I moved away in a hurry, there must be something valuable left, and I can't go empty-handed now, I must also take some eye-catching treasures. Ben was still a little infiltrating empty village, but he became kind, and he did what he said, and went to the cottage wooden house.

The man with the broken arm was depressed and poured wine, but he was not drunk because he was not drunk, after a jar of liquor bottomed out, the wine jar fell on the ground and shattered, the man simply lay on the chair, remembering the past.

Now count your fingers, I'm afraid it will be ten years, Qi Shu was just a hard study, hard work, although not a rich family, parents died early, relying on the sale of the field, it can be regarded as a full stomach of poetry books. The only thought is also to gain fame, as if there is nowhere to display thousands of talents in his heart, the official position below the fourth grade is really not in his eyes, and the prime minister has always been the goal of Qi Shu.

At the age of twenty-four, Qi Shu sold the only remaining field in his family, and resolutely embarked on the road to the examination, not to mention that he suffered all the hardships on the way, and hunger was a common thing, every time he thought of thousands of ambitions in his heart, hunger and fatigue were swept away, he wanted to take the examination for fame, but also to enter the court as an official, and his ambition must be played in the officialdom, for the country and the people.

In the examination room, Qi Shu will be full of enthusiasm, all written on the exam paper, the words and pens are endless, and when the list is released, the article on the first wall list is from him, Qi Shu is a little excited, and even can't help shouting, but then he is dumbfounded, where is the name of his Qi book, but it is a person who does not want to do with him, the text is his text, but where is the name of him.

Qi Shu wanted to sue the court, but how could it be so simple, he was directly expelled from the city, his fame was replaced, and now he fell into such a field, and he was also disheartened in his heart, and finally returned to Yinping after all the hardships, but he forgot that in addition to the poor four walls, the fields he also came from there had already been sold by him, and in the end, the bamboo basket was empty. As for the later mistakenly entered this robber's den, he was resourceful enough to become a military advisor, and he was also very talented, and he also entered the ranks of the three-grade martial artists in a few years. I didn't expect it to be so miserable now, even if I can't get used to seeing everyone's style on weekdays, I still have feelings, and now I don't have it, let alone a taste, relying on my own stump and broken arm, digging a huge pit, and burying everyone with difficulty, it can be regarded as being in the ground, what is the use of only being a waste person like myself now.

The hall that was still dark suddenly had a bright light, Qi Shu couldn't open his eyes, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to block the light, but the housekeeper of the Sun family who pushed the door in was different, so scared that he almost sat on the ground, he thought it was empty, who thought that there was a big living person lying on this chair, seeing that the person on the chair did not scold, he looked at the person on the chair, and the stone hanging in his heart was also put down, he knew who it was, although he didn't speak last time, but he still clearly remembered that the person in front of him was the four masters of the cottage.

"The four masters?" Although he didn't understand when it happened, the old butler had to say hello tentatively.

Qi Shu adapted to the light, sat upright and looked at the old man at the door, although he was a little drunk, he could also see who the person was, as if it was the old housekeeper who went up the mountain with Sun Yan last time. He just glanced at it, but did not answer.

The old housekeeper looked at the depressed four masters, and the fool also knew that something was wrong, so he said tentatively: "The four masters, why don't you see the brothers and other masters of the village." ”

Qi Shu raised his head and didn't hesitate, but said even more depressedly: "It's dead, it's all dead!"

The old housekeeper was taken aback, and naturally connected with the Wang family dart team in his heart.

"The Wang family did it?"

Qi Shu shook his head and nodded again.

"A bottomless young man, as for whether it is the Wang family, I don't know, I only know how to walk with him. ”

"Just one person?"

Qi Shu waved his hand, as if remembering how sad he was, got up and grabbed a wine jar and poured it into his mouth.

The old housekeeper saw the empty arm, and his mood fluctuated a little, what kind of means did he use to break an arm of the four masters in front of him, and let dozens of people lose their lives in vain! Seeing that the four masters only cared about pouring wine, I was afraid that they would not know anything more, so they had to turn around and prepare to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Qi Shu opened his mouth to stop the old butler who was leaving.

The old butler's body was tight, and his heart was full of thoughts, did he want to kill himself?

"Four masters?"

"You say that people live for a lifetime, what do you want?"

The old housekeeper was on the spot, how could he have thought that the fourth master dressed as a scholar would ask such a sentence, since he couldn't answer it for a while.

"I, when I was young, I wanted to be an official in the court, you may not believe it, at that time I was thinking about the country and the people, the problem is that the world is wrong, traitors are in charge, the people have no power and power, in the eyes of the powerful, there is no difference from the clay man, twist at will, be a man, it is very boring!"

Qi Shu muttered to himself and answered himself, but he was very much like ten years ago, and he hated this world as well.

Although the old housekeeper didn't know what had happened to the four masters, the words he spoke were similar to his own, they were all little people at the bottom, and he was already very tired from living.

"The fourth master, I don't understand those big truths, I'm just a little housekeeper of a dart bureau in Yinping City, Yongzhou, in the Lieyang Country, so there is a lot of indignation, and I was also young. ”

Qi Shu gathered the wine jar in his hand to the old housekeeper, the old housekeeper shook his head, and Qi Shu did not force it.

"And what are you trying to do in your life?"

The old housekeeper sneered and said: "When I was young, I always felt that I had some ingenuity, even if I was a dog, I could get ahead, and when I got older, I felt that it was not that way, and the little people were always small people, and when they were young, they were pretentious and only lived for themselves, and when they got married, it was different, not that they didn't want to, but they wanted to live for their families." ”

"It's nice to have family, it's like me......"

After Qi Shu finished speaking, he raised the wine jar again and gulped it for irrigation!

"I'm quite envious of you. ”

Qi Shu put down the wine jar and looked at the old butler with a puzzled expression.

"We are all subordinates, if it is ugly, we are slaves, and we have painted the ground as a prison all our lives, where have we seen this world, let alone anything else, we don't know a few big characters. ”

Qi Shu looked at the old butler who looked a little honest, and couldn't answer anymore, so he just looked at it like that.

The old housekeeper was no longer verbose, turned around and walked out, just walked to the door, and couldn't bear it in his heart, so he turned around and said: "Four masters, you bring something valuable, let's go out, we will not lie to the master when we go back, otherwise even if the life is saved, you have to take off a layer of skin, the current situation, the village must have a lot of treasures, the character of the master will not let you go." ”

After speaking, seeing that Qi Shu still didn't react, he sighed.

"Four masters, take care. ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Looking at the old housekeeper at the door of the cottage who gradually disappeared, Qi Shu made a mistake, like thin window paper, and it was penetrated with a poke!
