Xin Yibo was at the end of his crossbow, and he had been fighting Gucci for too long, and those cavalry had long since disappeared.

"Hurry, hurry!"

Xin Yibo was worried about Qiu Ze's safety, and he didn't care about the injuries on his body, and kept whipping the horse's back, but Xin Yibo was too heavy, more than twice as heavy as those cavalry, and after running for a few hours, the horse's speed inevitably slowed down, foaming at the mouth, and finally fell to the ground, unable to move anymore, Xin Yibo fell to the ground again, and after spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, he quickly got up and ran towards Wu County.

At noon, Xin Yibo finally arrived in the woods on the border of Wu County, he whistled, and in a short time, the old horse in the forest ran out.

Climbing on horseback, Xin Yibo shouted: "Quick, take me to Qiufu!"

————

Night.

At this time, the county government of Wu County was already a sea of fire, the bodies of more than a dozen officials were carried out and placed on the street outside the county office, dozens of soldiers were counting the number of people, Qiu Qitian was stabbed several times, and the body was tied to a tree next to the county office.

Qiufu was surrounded by hundreds of cavalry regiments, and kept throwing torches from outside the wall, and the cavalry found logs, and kept hitting the gate that was about to crack, and the two old servants held on to the gate, shouting: "Uncle Wu, you should quickly escape with the young master!

Qiu Ze stared blankly at the scene in front of him, Qiu Mansion had been burned by fire, and Wu Bo, who was covered in blood, took his arm and ran to the backyard.

"Uncle Wu, where is my father?"

"Sir, he'...... He's been killed by a traitor!"

Qiu Ze stopped and grabbed Uncle Wu's hand: "What did you say?"

"Young master, it's not appropriate to talk about it in detail here, so run away!"

As he spoke, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind Qiufu.

Uncle Wu's face was like ashes: "It's over......"

"Uncle Wu, tell me quickly, what's going on?"

Uncle Wu's face was like ashes, and he sat on the ground: "Half an hour ago, a team of soldiers rushed into the county government and killed all the officials on the spot, the master asked me to take you away, but ......"

Qiu Ze gasped and looked at Qiu Mansion, which was engulfed in flames: "How can this be?"

"Master, we can't leave......"

After saying this, Wu Bo couldn't support it anymore and was angry.

Qiu Ze knelt in front of Uncle Wu, his face full of tears.

The door had been smashed open, and the two old servants had died tragically under the blades.

"Go find the young master of the Qiu family, don't leave a single person alive!"

In the outer courtyard, the sound of horses' hooves is noisy.

"Bang!"

A figure descended from the sky, carrying a corpse in his hand.

"I'm sorry I'm late. ”

Xin Yibo looked at the dead Uncle Wu and shook his head.

Qiu Ze looked at Xin Yibo blankly, Xin Yibo quickly peeled off the armor on the corpse, and ripped off Qiu Ze's clothes to wrap the corpse, and threw it into the fire.

"This cavalryman is about the same size as you, and should be able to fool around. ”

Qiu Ze still knelt on the ground in a daze, and Xin Yibo snorted and slapped him in the face.

"Bastard, have you become an idiot!"

"I ......"

"Don't say it, let's go!"

————

The fire in Qiufu burned for a night before it was extinguished, and the official stood on the ruins with a smile on his face.

An officer bowed to Wang Dian's official and said, "My lord, we have found four corpses, in addition to the three servants, there is also a corpse that has been burned beyond recognition, but judging from the size and unburned clothes, it should be Qiu Ze, the second son of Qiu Qitian." ”

The official nodded: "I know, you have worked hard, go back, the prefect will reward you well." ”

————

A ruined temple outside the city.

Xin Yibo was so angry that the old horse took out the medicine from his burden and applied it to his wounds.

"That's the way it is, but unfortunately, on the way here, I ran into some trouble, and I was a step too late to save your father. ”

Xin Yibo told the whole story, but he didn't say that he had long known that someone was going to harm Qiu Ze's family, and he repented in his heart, if he killed those bandits that day, Qiu Ze's father would not have died.

Qiu Ze listened to Xin Yibo's words in a daze, and his face was full of tears.

After a while, Qiu Ze whispered, "You...... Are you alright?"

Xin Yibo snorted: "I can't die for the time being, what are you going to do next?"

Qiu Ze shook his head: "I don't know, but, I want revenge!"

He stood up, clenched his fists, and turned to leave.

"Nonsense! It's up to you, I'm afraid you'll be arrested before you even reach Su Mansion!"

Qiu Ze said excitedly: "Even if I am arrested, I will go! I can't let the dead be wronged! My father is innocent, Uncle Wu is innocent, and those servants and servants are all innocent!"

"I know they're innocent, but they don't want you to die either!"

Qiu Ze knelt down and kowtowed to Xin Yibo a few times: "I know, you are an immortal, I beg you, please help me take revenge! Don't you want to take me as an apprentice? I will promise you now!"

Xin Yibo was silent for a moment, shook his head, and said: "It is really despicable that they killed your father with their strength and weakness! But if I use force to help you avenge you, what is the difference between me and them? And ......"

Xin Yibo showed an embarrassed expression: "They are all mortals, I want to kill them easily, and I hate the shameless villain who bullies the most in my life! The anger in my heart is no less than yours, but ...... For some reason, I can't make a move against the officials of the Ming Dynasty, whether they are good or evil. ”

Akisawa laughed, he laughed while crying, laughing heartbreakingly!

"Ah!!!h

Xin Yibo was helpless in his heart, so he had to shout from Qiu Ze.

Pain, sorrow, powerlessness! There is nothing more helpless in the world than this!

More than ten years of nurturing grace, more than ten years of careful care!

Qiu Ze doesn't believe in God, but in his mind, Qiu Qitian has already become his god!

But his god and his faith fell to the altar in an instant, and they were torn apart! But Qiu Ze could only look at those fragments, and did nothing!

"The Taoist priests praised me for being a genius, my father praised me for my excellent knowledge, and Wu Bo praised me for being young and sensible, but ...... What use is this to me? I can neither protect my father, nor Uncle Wu, nor those servants who died miserably!"

There are no tears to shed! If we shed again, it will be blood! It will be hatred!

Qiu Ze's nails were deeply embedded in his palm, and the blood flowed like a pour! He didn't feel pain, because his heart was in pain a thousand times greater!

————

Late at night, Qiu Ze calmed down a lot, sitting on the grass, his eyes were lifeless!

Although Xin Yibo's injuries couldn't be healed for a while, he took a few pills and finally gained some energy.

"I know that you are very painful, the hatred of killing your father, the hatred of destroying your family. ”

Qiu Ze closed his eyes: "But I can't do anything!"

Xin Yibo shook his head and said no more.

"No, there's a way!" Akisawa stood up: "I thought of a way!"

"Oh? ”

Qiu Ze finally cheered up, and he said quickly: "In another month, it will be the examination, if I can pass the examination and pass the Jinshi in the temple examination, I will have the opportunity to face the saint, and when the time comes, I will be able to tell my father and them Zhaoxue and bring the Tang prefect to justice!"

Xin Yibo rolled his eyes: "You should go to Beijing to take the exam as easy as drinking water? Only those who raise people are qualified to take the examination!"

"I was lifted last year!"

When Xin Yibo heard this, he was surprised: "How old are you this year?"

"Fifteen. ”

Xin Yibo's eyes flashed: "Fifteen-year-old lifter? don't you see it, you bastard boy has some ability, how many people are you lifting?"

Akisawa hung his head: "The ...... Ninety-four. ”

"Ninety-four? That means you almost didn't pass the exam! Hmph, stinky boy, you are so good at being a jinshi? Do you know how many people go to take the exam?"

"Of course I know, but it's the only way. ”

Xin Yibo sighed and stopped talking, in his opinion, this is simply a fantasy, and the promotion of people in the examination shows that Qiu Ze is talented, but that's all, if you want to pass the exam, it is impossible.

"Alas, when my father was still alive, he advised me to study hard many times, but I was too stubborn and always perfunctory......"

The two fell silent.

After a while, Xin Yibo's mind flashed with inspiration, and he hurriedly said: "I have a clever plan......!

"What?"

"If I help you get into the Jinshi and give it to your father Zhaoxue, are you willing to worship me as a teacher?"
