Chapter 36: A New Beginning

The story has some twists and turns, but Cui Xiu has figured out the identity of the old woman.

Of course, at this time, he calculated by himself, and the news that Wu Zhen got did not specify the identity of the old woman.

......

The old woman's surname is Hua, which is also strange, people who are over half a hundred years old are still wandering outside, and then they arrived in Liujia Village.

When the villagers saw that she was pitiful, they took her into the village and built her a thatched hut.

The villagers didn't know her specific name, only her surname was Hua, so they called her Granny Hua.

At first, they got along well, but later, the villagers found that Granny Hua was acting a little strange.

Sometimes she wanders around the village at night, sometimes people pass by her house and see her holding an altar and muttering something, and sometimes she runs into the mountains alone and doesn't come back for a day or two.

It's okay to do it once or twice, but this kind of thing happens so often that the villagers are a little worried.

Especially later, after some strange things happened in the village, gradually the villagers put the reason for these things on Granny Hua......

Inevitably, the villagers' attitudes towards Granny Hua have changed.

And then it got worse.

Li Zheng saw that it was not a matter if it went on like this, so he was ready to talk to Granny Hua about it.

He is an old man, and he will not live many years, although he is afraid, he is willing to stand up, and he does not want the village to continue to maintain such an atmosphere.

But at this time, someone in the village invited a god out of nowhere.

I want to ask the gods to explain the fortune of the village.

The gods seem to have great powers.

Since the arrival of this deity, things have gone smoothly in the village, and the villagers have gradually believed in this deity, but the deity needs sacrifices, at first it was still cattle and sheep, and then it changed......

Everyone put their minds on Granny Hua for the first time......

Granny Hua then became the first sacrifice, and the villagers followed the instructions of the gods and tied people to the mountain forest where Cui Xiu saw the old woman and killed them.

After that, under the care of the gods, the people of Liujia Village really went well.

As a result, the matter of the sacrifice was out of control.

Passing travelers became their targets.

Of course, the villagers are still a little sensible, and they don't seem to be easy to provoke, or people with extraordinary status, they don't dare to move, and generally they move are travelers who travel alone.

Among them, the most scholars are studying tours......

There is no need to say much about the later things, in addition to the matter of the old woman, Cui Xiu and Wu Jian have already learned a little about the affairs of Liujia Village.

......

After listening to Wu Zhen's explanation, Cui Xiu also understood why the old woman reminded him not to go to Liujia Village.

Maybe it's an occasional kindness, but more of course, maybe it's a desire for revenge.

It's just that the specific identity of the old woman and the short stick are still not clear, which is a pity.

"Brother Wu, that thing is not in the hands of you and me now, I think I won't have anything to do with that old woman in the future, as for Captain Guan, as he is Yangsi, he shouldn't worry about this, and I told him then. ”

By the way, I also ask about the origin of the short stick.

Before going to Liujia Village, he was in a hurry all the way, and Cui Xiu didn't have a chance to ask.

When Guan Yuan comes back, it won't be too abrupt to ask about the old woman.

Cui Xiu pondered in her heart.

Hearing this, Wu Zhen nodded slightly, and then didn't say anything about it, but asked, "I don't know what Brother Cui's plans are in the future, but I want to prepare for the township test and go to Fucheng to continue studying?"

After a few days of getting along, especially facing the threat of life together, the relationship between Wu Zhen and Cui Xiu has become much closer.

In addition, due to the short-stick transaction, there will be intersections in the future, and Wu Zhen also asked about Cui Xiu's plans.

Cui Xiu heard this question, shook his head, and nodded: "I don't plan to go to the academy again, Brother Wu knows my family background, and now that I haven't succeeded in the township test, and I'm not too young, I have to find a job, and I still want to ask Brother Wu for teaching, so I'm going to find something to do in the county." ”

"By the way, I don't know if Brother Wu has any suggestions for this matter?"

Wu Zhen didn't think Cui Xiu was polite, thought about it, and replied: "I have a place to go here, but I'm afraid that Brother Cui will mind a little." ”

"Brother Wu said with a smile, I was born in a peasant family, I don't care what it is, I don't delay my study, Brother Cui knows that I have been practicing martial arts recently, and it doesn't hurt to work hard, but I'm afraid of trouble Brother Wu. ”

Wu Zhen shook his head: "Brother Cui, where is this, if it weren't for Brother Cui this time, it would be difficult for me to say that Captain Guan would help, this matter is just a trivial matter, although my Wu family has had some small troubles recently, this little favor can still help." ”

"Brother Cui also has to study the scriptures and prepare for the township test, and the things next to him are not easy to do, I have a pharmacy in Anyuan at home, and it just so happens that the account room of the pharmacy went out to do business with an elder of my family, if Brother Cui doesn't mind, you might as well give it a try." ”

"With Brother Cui's talent, the account room is naturally overkill, but this matter does not require much effort, just understand the accounts, there is always time for Brother Cui to study the article and knowledge, and it is not a bad place to go for the time being. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Zhen said again: "If Brother Cui has any better place to go in the future, there will be no hindrance." ”

Cui Xiuben just asked, he thought that as Wu Zhen, he might be able to recommend a few places for him to try in Anyuan County, so it would be enough, but he didn't think that Wu Zhen would let him work in his own pharmacy.

Of course, he didn't feel bad about working under the Wu family, after all, with his current conditions, he was helping people everywhere.

He didn't feel that he had a reputation or memories of his past life, so he should do something great.

Not to mention the fame of the show, there is nothing remarkable.

Let's just say that this thing is not uncommon in his previous life, and he doesn't mean to be ambitious.

And the main purpose of his job is that he doesn't want to rely on his family's relief to earn some of his own living expenses.

With the ability to be in the body, it should not cost too much resources to practice martial arts, get some capital, and prepare for the future township test.

If you are admitted to the lifting of people in the future, there will naturally be ways to make money.

Of course, he also has other ideas, and now that he is good friends with Wu Zhen, he can naturally make some inventions and cooperate with the Wu family.

But that's not now.

Even if you want to do it, you need to figure out the current court and the situation of the Wu family first.

This kind of long-term planning for the future should not be rushed.

Although in this world, he is not too young, but he is actually only eighteen, and there is no shortage of food and clothing at home, so there is no need to be too reckless.

"Brother Wu thinks so much about me, Cui Xiu is grateful. ”

Cui Xiu was ready to respond, and said with a smile: "It's just that I don't know much about the account room, I'm afraid that I have to give it a try first, I'm afraid that I won't do it well, and I'm sorry Brother Wu." ”

Brother Cui laughed, with Brother Cui's wisdom, this matter should not be difficult. Wu Zhen shook his head and smiled: "In this case, I will arrange it first, Brother Cui will stay with me for a few days, as for the rest, you might as well think about it later." ”
