The news that Li Luoyang left Anning County spread after all. Even though Zhou Lin and Wu Chengdu were tight lipped, there was no one at the county school. In short, someone asked. So soon the whole Anning County knew that the prodigy who wrote Liaozhai anecdotes had run away. Is there a sequel to Liaozhai anecdotes?

In this era when there is a great lack of consultation and entertainment, watching or listening to others tell Liaozhai anecdotes is the only thing that many people are interested in. How the grassland in the north is like the bandits in the South has nothing to do with the people who work at sunrise and enter at sunset. It would be more comfortable if you could listen to the story. After all, there is no shortage of food in the south, As long as the official system is not too cruel, life in places like Lijia village is not difficult.

Not long after Li Luoyang left, two scholars appeared outside the city of Anning county. They rode a tall horse that is rarely seen in a small place. Although the color of the clothes they wore was inconspicuous, they looked at the satin only available in Suzhou and Hangzhou. The price was by no means ordinary. They looked very proud. They didn't mean to get off at the gate of the city, Immediately aroused the resentment of the city gate guards, directly propped up the red tassel gun in their hands and drank low. They showed the guide.

It's the rule of the imperial court not to go out without a guide.

In the face of the aggressive city guard, the two men looked rather ridiculed. One of them felt for a way out from his arms and handed it to the city guard. However, because the horse was too high, the city guard had to stand on tiptoe to get it. There was still verification. The two men on the horse had laughed and said "scholar, farmer, industrial and commercial army" and "lowly".

The city guards didn't have much knowledge. Of course, they didn't understand those words that knew why they were winding. After verifying the road guide, the scribe on the left thought that the guard would stand on tiptoe and give it to him. He was proudly holding out his hand. Unexpectedly, the guard just held the road guide flat and said, "whose road guide? Don't I can throw it away!"

"Mine, mine."

The scribe on the horse couldn't sit still. He quickly bent down to grasp the road guide, but his posture was a hundred times more ugly than the city guard's efforts to pad his feet, especially his high pouted ass, which was really gentle.

The city guard snorted and turned back to his post with satisfaction. However, the scribe got up straight after getting the guide, and his face turned red. He didn't know whether it was because it was too difficult to bend down or because he was angry.

"Brother Qingjian, forget it. One more thing is better than one less. We're here to find the prodigy today."

"Brother Li Yun, isn't it easy for me to take care of them? Hum, if a military household annoys me, he will directly send the paper to the Yamen. I'm afraid he will have to kneel and kowtow to me for mercy!"

"Forget it, don't worry about these little things. We scholars can't compare with these cheap people. The prime minister can support a boat in his belly." the scholar who wrote Li Yun persuaded the scholar named Qingjian. They drove their horses directly to the entrance of the city gate, and then reluctantly turned over and got off their horses.

No one forced them to come down, but the gate hole in Anning county is only so high. If you have to rush in on a horse, it's not impossible, but you have to lower their heads - they are scholars. Can scholars lower their heads at will?

"Where do we choose to go?"

"Of course, go to the county school first." Li Yun took his horse, glanced at the houses and pedestrians along the road, and whispered, "it's really bad here, but it's really strange to be a prodigy."

"Isn't it? It's said that the poor mountains and rivers make trouble for people, and there are outstanding people and miracles. Why can't I see the outstanding people here?" Li Yun, who has just been insulted by the city guards, is still angry. Unfortunately, although the imperial court gives preferential treatment to scholars, there is no limit. You can go to the hall without kneeling, but you can't go out without a guide. Without a guide, even your fame can't protect you, Maybe he'll be given fame first and then sentenced to exile or something.

Of course, the law in the imperial era is nothing more than an extension of the imperial will, so everything can be transferred by human will. Without guidance, it is a violation of laws and regulations, but whether it must be handled depends on the relationship.

Qingjian and Li Yun found the county school, but they threw themselves into the air. After asking, they knew that they were late. Li Luoyang left.

"Brother Li Yun, what should we do? We were entrusted by others."

"Isn't it, Li Luoyang? He hasn't reached the crown yet. How can he run around? He really doesn't look like a scholar."

"Well, let's go to his house first and see if we can find out where he went and how he was entrusted to be loyal to others." Qingjian shook his head, turned over and mounted his horse, whether it was in the city or not, and whether the horse would trample on pedestrians. Seeing him, Li Yun also mounted his horse. Unfortunately, the population of Anning county was not large, and the stone road went smoothly, At least there was no stumbling. After a while, he arrived at the gate of Liao's courtyard.

With Li Luoyang's departure, almost no one came in and out of the Liao family courtyard. Of course, the door did not need to be opened. Even the impatient Qingjian knocked hard on the door for a while, and there was no movement. Then he said, "the whole family will not die. Oh, who, who hit me with something?"

After a scream, Qingjian covered his forehead. Fortunately, he didn't feel warm after bleeding, but it hurt. He was a little dizzy. Li Yun threw a loud whip and said loudly, "who? Come out! What a hero!"

Scholars these days are much better than those who have been weak since the Song Dynasty. Although they are not as brave as Li Taibai and Du's Ministry of industry, they still have strength and courage. They dare to go out alone, walk together, and don't even need a schoolboy. They won't be afraid of things. There are many times when their words are different and they draw their swords against each other.

If he hadn't found a figure, Li Yun just pulled out his sword instead of throwing his whip.

Unfortunately, it was quiet around, and no one answered Li Yun at all. There were several people pointing out in the distance, but it can be imagined that what they said was certainly not good. Scholars, in Wuzhou, they were not really as great as later generations and as great as aristocrats. Even with the Division of "scholar, farmer, industrial and commercial army", after all, they will begin and have not really penetrated into the hearts of the people, If you really get angry, just like the guards at the gate of Anning County, let you know what is called "scholar meets soldier".

"What bad luck! It's a bird."

Qingjian, who suffered a lot, finally found out what hurt him. A bird is also the most common sparrow in the south. Somehow, when he saw clearly that it was a sparrow, he was relieved - fortunately it was not a crow.
