“National Teacher?”

Moli frowned deeply. As far as he knows, the name of the national teacher began in the border Xiliang country a hundred years ago. The people of the country believed in Buddhism. It’s the usage number.

The name of Meng Qi is obviously not a monk’s title.

“Fifteen years have passed since the fall of the previous dynasty, is this person okay?”

“Some people say they have seen him, and some people say he died a long time ago.” Xue Zhixian said with a beard and calm face, “The old man mentioned this man only because he was the most mysterious and unpredictable I have ever seen. Master.”

“Oh?” Moli was interested.

Although he is not interested in arguing about strengths and shortcomings, and being number one in the world, his body after being transformed into a human form is real, he will feel hungry, hurt and painful. The spiritual power in the body is not much different from martial arts, but it is better to use it, and it can also raise ginseng to tease the fox and hug the snake. Zhushan County is a small place, and there are no martial arts masters. Xue Zhixian and Mr. Qin are both elders, and it is difficult for Moli to find an opponent.

Xue Zhixian frowned when he saw Moli’s expression.

“Don’t be careless, Meng Qi is a man with perverted temperament and unpredictable strength. Back then, there were rumors that he was a ghost and inhuman, and every night of the full moon, he would have a cannibal heart. Of course, this is all rumors. , Twenty-two years ago, when the old man was stumbling in Taijing, he once met the teacher of Meng, and I still have lingering fears in retrospect.”

Xue Zhixian couldn’t help holding up the tea cup, warming his palm with the heat from it.

“…the whole body is cold, like falling into a frozen river ice cave in the twelfth lunar month of winter.”

Moli thoughtfully, Xue Zhixian added: “It’s not an illusion, but a real feeling. The old man practiced the partial technique and walked the evil way. When he was young, he was eager to ask. The ice hole is not skipped.”

The body feels a sharp tingling, the limbs are quickly numb, no sound is made, and consciousness is blurred…

“Is Xue Lingjun alone, or is it?”

“It’s all like this.” Xue Zhixian said in a deep voice, “At that time, there was a small official who was waiting for the appointment letter from the official department, and he was frightened. Meng Qi has never been in the arena, so the world has nothing about him Mr. Qin also doesn’t know about the rumors. Those who are good fighters have no great merits. Those who have no reputation are the most terrible, because the crisis has been silently resolved by them beforehand, or someone who knows their secrets. Are dead…”

Mo Lei immediately put away his curiosity about this mysterious master.

——He promised the teacher and Xiaotang that they would come back safely. Some troubles can be avoided, and it is better not to touch them.

“I am concerned about the mountains and rivers, and have no interest in other things. Thank you Xue Lingjun for your advice.”

Xue Zhixian nodded, and said: “After the fall of the previous dynasty, there is no news from Meng Guoshi. Some people say that he is dead, but the old man doesn’t believe it. It’s hard to kill such a person. People disappeared, but it couldn’t be easier.”

At this time, Master Li came back.

He took a map of Pingzhou Prefecture. The map was very detailed, including villages and market towns.

In fact, this map and the related household register are important documents of the government, and others are not allowed to read them at will. However, Zhushan County is a forgotten place. Now Xuezhi County only gives the prefectural government some tax, silver, money and food symbolically every year. If it were not for fear of attracting attention, he would not even give this money.

The world is in chaos, the princes rise together, and places where they do not submit to the jurisdiction are everywhere.

Even if the scourge of war does not spread, it will only maintain a superficial condition.

Zhushan County is small and poor, and the court does not pay any salaries. Xue Zhixian simply deducts half of the tax and silver paid by the predecessor, and then deducts the salaries of himself and Zuoguan. Do you want the rest of the love? If there were people from the state capital, Xue Zhixian would take the guards down to the fields to plant the land, avoiding them, and not having a good mood when they met. In fact, the people’s life in Zhushan County has more than doubled in the past two decades.

The county government office in Zhushan County does not follow the imperial rules on weekdays. Otherwise, how could the warehouse be opened as soon as possible? The treasury of Fuya County is owned by the state. Even if disaster relief is done, there is no declaration or approval, tampering is a serious crime, and those who are minor are exempted from officials and those who are severely exiled. Even the county chronicles are not something you can see if you want to read them, unless you have fame or deeds on it.

However, none of these matters when he arrived here in Xuezhi County, because before he arrived in Zhushan County, the county government’s warehouse was so empty that the mice starved to death, and the county annals were not compiled.

There are no literati, no squires, or squires who are guilty of fame. Even the county school cannot go on. The predecessor county quickly handed over the seal like a hot potato. He left in a hurry and didn’t want to stay too much for a day.

In addition to the county magistrate, there were originally two sub-officials, the county chief and the county lieutenant.

At that time, in order to save money and food, the post of the county prime minister in the small county was directly cancelled, and the county lieutenant, Mrs. Chen, did not wait for the transfer in his life. He was still holding this official title at the age of seventy. Now he simply stays at home for the elderly, and all his official duties are thrown away. Qin catches quickly.

So Master Li and Qin catch fast, one doing the work of the county chief and the other doing the work of the county lieutenant.

Master Li unfolded the map and said it all right.

Moli looked at the mountain roads he had walked in his memory and found that Qi Mao Mountain is really nothing. The three hundred miles around it are only a part of the northwest of Pingzhou Prefecture. Looking down, several mountain ranges traverse the southern part of Pingzhou Prefecture. .

“If you walk along Qimao Mountain all the way to the northwest, you will be the territory of the Barbarians, and you will pass through the grassland to Kunlun Mountain.”

Doctor Mo’s heart moved, Kunlun Mountain has had fairy legends since ancient times, and there are many records.

“Going through Pingzhou Prefecture, to the east is Yongzhou. If you want to go to Taijing, you must take this road.”

“No, I plan to go north.”

Moli decided to leave the customs so that we can go to Tianshan Mountain to the east, where there are precious herbs, and Kunlun to the north. There are so many weird and strange things. Although the distance is a little farther and barren, it is better than no one bothers. .

“Alright.” Xue Zhixian seemed to have expected it, he smiled, “Doctor Mo is here for a while, and the old man will go and give you a guide.”

When he finished speaking, he went to the study. When he came back, he had not only a guide, but also a letter.

“The old man has something to ask for help.” Xue Zhixian put the letter on the table and said with a smile, “The old man’s daughter married in a neighboring county, and Doctor Mo has also seen him. Nowadays, the mountain is covered by snow and no one can believe it. Excuse me, Doctor Mo, take a detour with a letter.”

It’s not a difficult task, Moli agreed.

When he received the guide, he was stunned, because although it was his name, it was not the guide from Zhushan County.

“Qingzhou Mansion?”

Qingzhou is in the east, close to the sea, and it is probably three thousand miles away from Zhushan County.

Xue Zhixian actually nodded and said: “Yes, it is the guide of Qingzhou Mansion. The staff of the mansion wrote a good handwriting. It is the same year as mine. I can imitate his handwriting, so I can use it smoothly. You don’t have to worry about it, it’s very realistic, and you can’t pick out what’s wrong.”

“…”

No, this is not what he is struggling with. Mo Li thought about it seriously, Xue Lingjun was afraid that he would “get into trouble” after he went out, and even the future troubles would be solved in advance, so that no one would trace his origin.

“Thank you Xue Lingjun for the suggestion. If you are away from home, you can not use guides, and try not to use it when you are down.”

Overcoming the city wall can save the gate tax!

Thinking of the peaceful situation in Zhushan County, Moli quickly accepted this approach.

Xue Zhixian touched his beard with satisfaction and asked: “Mr. Qin’s ancestral home in Qingzhou, do you speak Qingzhou dialect?”

Mo Lei nodded.

“I don’t know when Dr. Mo will leave?”

“Morning morning.”

“The county office is busy, so I won’t send it off tomorrow. Master Li, I will see you off on behalf of the old man.” Xue Zhixian also did not serve the tea, watched Moli leave, until the second hall was empty, he still shook his head. Wondering what.

“I always feel that something will happen if he goes out this time.”

Xue Zhixian has an ominous premonition, but he doesn’t have the ability to calculate like in the script. He doesn’t know where the disaster is coming from, so he can only feel bored in his heart.

He said to himself: “Qin Lu doesn’t know what he is thinking. His apprentice has enough skills, but he doesn’t fit into the world. This world is not peaceful, so how can there be no trouble? But…”

As long as you don’t meet Meng Qi, even if something happens, it won’t be too dangerous.

Xue Zhixian thought about it, then let go of his heart.

***

Three days later, Xiaohe Town, Ma County, Pingzhou Prefecture.

There is also a mountain near Ma County, called Jiguanshan, not because it looks like a cockscomb, but because the cockscomb is like a mountain. This place is not far from Jimao Mountain, and it happens to be on the north side of Jimao Mountain. From the map, it is pressed on top of the head, so it is called Jiguan Mountain.

There is a river below Jiguan Mountain, and nearby is the richest town in Ma County.

It’s not as remote as Zhushan County. The river is connected to a waterway, and caravans can occasionally be seen.

This year is very cold, the river is covered by ice, and no one can be seen on the bustling pier in the past.

Moli stood at the entrance of the town and looked around, and found that the town was a bit bigger than Zhushan County, with three streets and many houses and courtyards. It seemed that I would have to look for it for a while.

Speaking of Xue Zhixian’s daughter, she is about the same age as Moli (appearance).

Ms. Xue’s husband-in-law is the grandson of the old madam Chen, the county lieutenant in Zhushan County.

Lieutenant Chen has six sons and a large number of grandsons, so many that he doesn’t even remember Mrs. Chen himself. The population is larger, and there are more mouths to eat. Relying on Mrs. Chen’s salary is not enough, the grown-ups go out to make a living on their own. One of the sons is doing business in Ma County and marrying his biological son.

Ms. Xue’s husband-in-law, Chen Zhong, comes from this family.

In the early years, officials and eunuchs used the name of servant Jiading for business. The merchants were really not well-known, and they also affected the imperial examinations of their descendants.

The Chen family doesn’t care, anyway, this world is chaotic, and living is the most important thing.

Mo Li has seen Ms. Xue’s husband-in-law. He is a big man with thick eyebrows and tiger-eyed eyes. He is full of tendon flesh, and has a tanned complexion. He stares down casually and can scare the little baby on the street.

It is said that his parents used to run around in every possible way, and none of the daughters of good people were willing to marry. As a result, she went to visit relatives in Zhushan County, and she was attracted by Lady Xue.

A pair of children happily passed the letter for two years, and Xue Zhixian waved his daughter out.

This incident shocked both Ma County and Zhushan County. Everyone couldn’t understand how this fierce man got the pie in the sky. Is it because it’s right? But Grandpa Chen’s grandson couldn’t count ten fingers, so why is this one?

Although the folks in the countryside hope that their daughter finds a man who can support the family, Chen Xiaolang is too outrageous, and his slap may be able to fan the little lady.

Mo Li didn’t think it was weird. In his eyes, people are tall, short, fat, thin, old, sick, beautiful and ugly.

Since Lady Xue got married, Mo Li hasn’t seen her, and it is the first time for him to come to Ma County.

From a distance, I heard the sound of firecrackers, and piles of people gathered in front of a certain mansion, shouting auspicious words to please money, and the mansion was covered with red and colorful colors.

Before Mo Li approached, he saw a person coming out of the house. The street was quiet for a moment, and Mo Li took the opportunity to walk over.

“Huh, Doctor Mo?”

This man has a very loud voice and can be heard half a street.

It is Mrs. Xue’s husband-in-law, Chen Zhong. He is wearing a satin gown and his face is cleanly shaved, but he looks not only not rich, but even more scary, like someone robbed of his outer clothes in a cottage. Bandit leader wearing.

“Why did Doctor Mo come? It happened that my sister got married today and came over for a wedding drink?”

Mo Li quickly declined, saying that he was here to deliver a letter to Lady Xue.

Where did Chen Zhong agree, and dragged Moli into the door. When he married Lady Xue, everyone had a weird expression. Only Moli and Xue Zhixian were the same.

“Hurry up, there is nothing to congratulate…”

“What kind of gift do you want, you don’t know my brother-in-law.” Chen Zhong turned his head, grabbed a servant and said, “Hurry up and ask Mrs., just say she has a letter from her family.”

The servant had no promise and ran away in a hurry.

I don’t know why, Mo Li suddenly remembered Meng Qi mentioned by Xue Zhixian.

——As far as scary skills are concerned, Chen Zhong also has it, but Chen Zhong is really fierce.

Mo Lei couldn’t help laughing. Chen Zhong began to brag about his home-brewed daughter red, and he must try Mo Lei.

The atmosphere was lively, and suddenly there was a loud noise in front of the door, and the plaque of Chen’s House flew in and broke into several pieces.

Followed by a group of soldiers carrying knives, and then a man wearing a rank 6 military officer’s uniform. He looked at Chen Zhong and Moli coldly with dark eyebrows.

“Are you Xue Zhu’s husband-in-law?” The military officer drew his sword and pointed at Moli.

Chen Zhong: “…”

Moli: “…”
