Chapter 2: Enlightenment

Zhang Yaowen's seriousness made Zhang Yuan turn from surprise to joy, and became extremely proud:

"Dad, don't panic, the child has already sent someone to poison that kid, I believe that this death catastrophe can be resolved. ”

Hearing this news, Zhang Yaowen was indeed relieved, the previous disasters were avoided by learning in advance, so raising little ghosts is very important between the court officials and the wealthy businessmen.

After that, a few hours passed, and after Shen Ho buried Shen Qin's family with the help of his neighbors, the sky was about to darken, and the father and son returned home in silence.

There was a dead silence.

"Qi'er, you're tired too, let's drink saliva and rest first, and Dad will prepare dinner for you. ”

After a pause, Shen Ho's father's voice broke the dead silence, turned around and walked to the kitchen. He knew that Shen Qi was very sad.

But when Shen Qi poured out the tea he had made in the morning and drank a cup, he suddenly heard Shen Hao's painful sobs from the kitchen, and when the seven-foot man sat at the stove and burned the fire, he remembered that Shen Qin was busy in the kitchen, and suddenly felt sad, and his rough big hands tightly covered his mouth, and tears flowed down his face.

Listening to his father hiding in the kitchen and choking alone, Shen Qi felt more and more uncomfortable sitting on the table, but before tears could flow from his wet red eyes, he suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen, and then his whole body convulsed, his face was dark, and white foam was flowing in his mouth.

He only heard a crisp sound of pounds, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered, and his body fell stiffly, and he soon lost his breath.

Shen Ho, who was in the kitchen, heard the sound of the teacup breaking, felt uneasy in his heart, and rushed out quickly. When he ran in, he saw that Shen Qi's whole body was thick black, and his nose and mouth were stuffed with white foam, which was a sign of severe poison.

"Ki'er!"

Shen Hao screamed, and suddenly rushed to Shen Qi's side, his limbs were already cold and hard, and he had no breath.

Seeing that his good son was poisoned at home, Shen Ho, who had not yet reached the age of confusion, was paralyzed, and his long braided hair turned white at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this time, there was still a sunset in the sky, and suddenly there was a strong wind howling, and then it was a sudden fall of June snow, which did not stop for three days, which showed that the grievances shook the sky.

The news of Shen Qi's death spread quickly, and many villagers braved the heavy snow to rush over, including the heartbroken prodigy Li Guangdi and Song Kuangfu. The two of them looked at Shen Qi, who died of severe poisoning, and knew that most of them were poisoned by Zhang Yuan.

In the end, Shen Qi's body was first placed in the room where he slept, and the white paper with the words "Zou Manshan" still placed on the desk. But when the white-haired man sent the black-haired Shen Ho the next day to bury his son's body, he and many villagers who came to help found that Shen Qi was lying on the bed and could not move, and even the color of his body unexpectedly changed from black to pale, I don't know if it was the result of deep toxicity.

The country people were superstitious, thinking that Shen Qi wanted to stay at home for a few more days before entering the earth, so they did not forcibly move his body. But who expected that two days later, the heavy snow was fierce, the wind was cold, and Shen Qi, whose face was pale, suddenly woke up with his eyes.

At the same moment, the three words "Zou Manshan" written by Shen Qi on the desk highlighted the brilliance, and between the black handwriting was the dazzling essence of the pen, about two zhang high, which was the second paragraph of the pen.

At the age of fifteen, he was able to practice the second paragraph of pen power, which shows that Shen Qi, who seems to be ignorant and dull, is actually more talented than Li Guangdi.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the two-zhang high pen power essence turned into a strange energy and dispersed, and the desk under the white paper was ignited in an instant, and then a monstrous fire soared into the sky in the snow, burning Shen Qi's room to ashes.

Shen Hoe and others, who didn't expect a sudden fire at all, hurriedly carried water to extinguish the fire, and with concerted efforts, the fire was quickly extinguished, but everyone felt that this fire was too strange, how could it spread quickly in such a short period of time and burn down the entire room?

What surprised everyone even more was that on the site of the old room where only a piece of black charcoal remained, a piece of white paper was still intact suspended in the void at the desk position, not burned by fire or splashed with water.

Everyone took a closer look, but found that this strange white paper had fallen down, and the name of Shen Hao's little daughter-in-law who had not passed the door was written on it.

Li Guangdi and Song Kuangfu, who heard the news, also rushed over, as people who had paid attention to this blank paper, Li Guangdi picked it up with trembling hands, and the handwriting on it had lost its original sense of elegance, and instead revealed a thick and sharp feeling.

Song Kuangfu, who was beside Li Guangdi, also saw the handwriting on it, because he was a person who practiced pen power, he saw that there was a strong pen power between the strokes.

"The old man is unfazed with the naked eye, but he doesn't know that there is such a ghost among the students!"

Hearing Song Kuangfu's heartfelt shocking voice, the villagers next to him were all at a loss, they didn't know what was going on, and they didn't see Shen Qi's body, thinking that it was cremated, only Li Guangdi and Song Kuangfu knew that Shen Qi was still alive.

This so-called ghost talent refers to the very few people who have a divine soul among the scholars, and it is generally a person with outstanding talent or who seems to be ignorant and dull to have a very small chance of having it. Shen Qi's resurrection from the dead this time just opened his soul, and his full edge was revealed. Compared with Shen Qi, who only got the enlightenment of the soul at the age of fifteen, some people with outstanding talents have the soul of enlightenment from birth.

It is said that those who are enlightened by the soul can cultivate ghosts in one way, and they can return to the same path as the immortal cultivation in ancient times. It's a pity that I don't know when the Shinto has been eliminated, and the cultivation of ghosts has also declined, but the new pen power has prospered and has enveloped the entire world, which also responds to the simple truth of eliminating the other.

If they can still carry out the cultivation of ghost talents, those who have opened their minds are extremely noble in the world, because they who are familiar with the ancient and modern can be as wise as candles in the end, and they can become emperors and teachers in the world, calm the chaos of the world, and even break through the constraints of the laws of the world and go straight to the way of heaven.

"Uncle Song, congratulations, Shen Qi is not dead, this is the text he wrote, you keep it, you can use it to suppress disasters and ward off evil spirits. ”

Li Guangdi was excited, turned around and handed the blank paper to Shen Ho, who was dazed, this country man who had been hit by the blow looked tired, and after taking the white paper weakly, he suddenly noticed Li Guangdi's previous words.

"What do you say, Qi'er is still alive?"

Facing Shen Hao's astonishment, Li Guangdi nodded solemnly:

"Shen Qi is not only alive, but also a blessing in disguise to become a ghost talent with pen power, since the establishment of the dynasty, he should be the first ghost talent born!"

Hearing this, Shen Ho realized that the white paper in his hand that should have been light and fluttering had a sense of heaviness, and when he touched the ink on it with his hand, he could feel the unevenness, as if there was something else in the words.

Although the villagers don't know about ghosts, they know more or less what it means to practice pen power, which means that if Shen Qi can participate in the county examination and the government examination, he will definitely be a blockbuster and become a child smoothly, and then be eligible to participate in the hospital examination, the township examination, the general examination and the palace examination.

In fact, Shen Qi wanted to participate in the county exam in February before, but because he had no confidence, he hesitated and finally missed it, which is also the reason why Shen Qin's hatred for him is not steel. On the other hand, the prodigy Li Guangdi, who showed his pen skills in the county examination, became the head of the case in one fell swoop, and if he successfully passed the government examination in August, he could obtain the status of a child, and then be eligible to participate in the official imperial examination, which can also be regarded as a preparatory examination before the imperial examination.

Fortunately, the imperial examination process in the Qing Dynasty was quite reasonable, and those who failed to participate in the county examination for some reason could take a make-up examination before the government examination, and after passing, they could also participate in the government examination, I don't know if Shen Qi could seize this opportunity.

Just when the villagers turned to congratulate Shen Qi because of Shen Qi's pen skills, they realized that this ghost didn't know where he was. Everyone hurriedly searched around, and shouts rang out again and again.

At this time, Shen Qi had already run outside the village, and he left from the fire with his book basket on his back, his face full of determination. Since his soul was enlightened, his first thought was to go to the county mansion to rescue Zou Manshan and avenge his mother.

The book basket on his back contained pen, ink, paper, inkstones, and some books, and there were stands on both sides, and a small shed was erected to shade the top of his head. During his fast running, there was a slight collision sound in the book basket, and the people from the same village who returned from the ridge saw a scholar come out and politely went to say hello, but what they didn't want to see was Shen Qi, who died yesterday, and immediately sat on the ground in fright.

"Fraud, cheat!"

The man sat on the ground, pointed at Shen Qi and screamed in horror, and then ran away.

Shen Qi didn't have time to explain, and continued to carry the book basket towards the county seat not far away, he was already holding a brush in his hand, and there was a small bamboo tube on the tip of the pen, and a small amount of ink soaked in the bristles of the pen, which could be pulled out at any time and waved into words

On this occasion, after Zhang Yuan in Anxi County left the dark house where he raised little ghosts, he was scolded by Zhang Yaowen, who was in an unhappy mood, and strictly ordered him to read and write articles immediately.

Forced by Zhang Yaowen's majesty, Zhang Yuan compromised for a short time, he hid in the study and pretended to read the "Analects" for three days. He was thinking about the fourteen-year-old lady Zou Manshan who was snatching his hands.

"Young master, it's a great thing, the master went to Shopkeeper Chen's house to drink papers!"

Today, just when Zhang Yuan was bored in the study and couldn't concentrate, a thin subordinate secretly ran to the window of his study and called out.

This person's name is Liu Er, who is the person responsible for poisoning Shen Qi, and the shopkeeper Chen is a wealthy businessman in Anxi County, named Chen Tianbao.

Hearing Liu Er's words, Zhang Yuan was overjoyed, dropped the "Analects" in his hand and rushed out of the study.

"Good Liu Er, this young master will reward you later!"

Zhang Yuan, who finally had the opportunity to go out, had his first thought of rushing to the room where Zou Manshan was being held, and after holding it for a few days, he already had an evil fire rising from his lower abdomen.

"Little lady, I'm here!"

Zhang Yuan pushed the door open, and Zou Manshan, who was shrinking in the corner with a dull expression, was so frightened that her delicate body trembled. Her white melon seed face was raised, and she saw that Zhang Yuan seemed to be crazy, and she pulled off her clothes indiscriminately, her face was excited.

At this time, at the gate of the county magistrate's office, the two officials in charge of guarding the gate saw an extremely ordinary scholar standing in front of the steps with a stack of white paper in one hand and a brush dipped in ink in the other, unaware of the danger coming. ps: The new book is uploaded, if you think it's okay, please add it to the bookshelf to collect it, and if you have a ticket, please vote, thank you very much!!
