Chapter 2987

When the old man in gray clothes said this, he raised his head and glanced at the old man in green clothes standing in the lobby, and then continued: "That night, I packed my luggage and was about to take a rest when I suddenly heard someone outside the door respectfully.

He said, Sir, have you ever slept peacefully? The old man was startled, and hurriedly walked over and opened the door, only to see a man standing outside the door. It was the man who was almost kicked out of the temple during the day. After he saw the old man, he immediately bowed his head.

When he reached the ground, he thanked him profusely. The old man hurriedly helped him up and invited him into the room to talk.

"After I sat down with the man, I looked at him carefully. I saw that his face was no longer as pale and ugly as before, and there was a little blood. I knew that he rested for a few hours after eating food. Although

His health has not yet recovered, but his energy has recovered slightly, and I am really happy for him.

"The man thanked me and said a few polite words before introducing himself to his family. It turned out that this man's surname was Bao, his given name was Xi, and his given name was Sheng'an. He was from Liangzhou. The ancestors of the Bao family started their business by opening a silk and satin shop.

After accumulating a fortune of tens of millions, he not only opened several silk and satin shops in Liangzhou, but also set up branches in several nearby state capitals. The business was booming and he was a famous wealthy family in Liangzhou. It was only after the Tatars destroyed the Song Dynasty.

, levied violently in the Central Plains, brutalized the Han people, and plundered the splendid mountains and rivers of the Central Plains to the ground, leaving bones everywhere. The Bao family was framed by the Tatar officials and extorted a lot of money. Several silk and satin shops not only failed to make money, but also lost money.

The ancestors of the Bao family saw that the Tatar officials were pressing closer and closer, and knew that their family would be destroyed if this situation continued. There was really no other way to think of, so they had to sell the silk and satin shop to the cronies of the Liangzhou officials at a low price, and took their families to escape the disaster in the mountains.

, living in seclusion. After that, the Bao family always hid in the mountains and survived by luck in the troubled times.

"Later, the rise of the Ming Dynasty drove away the Tatars, and the Central Plains was first settled, so the Bao family moved back to Liangzhou. Although the silk and satin shop no longer exists, the Bao family still hid some money. Although it is not a wealthy family,

But it can be said that the family is well-off and has no worries about food and clothing. Mr. Bao gave birth to Bao Xi when he was fifty-two years old. He was very fond of having a son at this old age. He was determined to make Bao Xi proud of his ancestors and become an official, so he did not hesitate to give birth to Bao Xi.

He spent a lot of money to invite famous scholars and scholars to teach Bao Xi how to read and write, and planned to let him take part in the imperial examination and serve as an official in the imperial court.

"Bao Xi worked very hard, and he was admitted as a scholar. Mr. Bao was overjoyed and held dozens of banquets for relatives and neighbors to celebrate. Mr. Bao originally thought that Bao Xi would definitely win the exam, and from then on he would rise to prominence and honor his ancestors. Who knew

From then on, Bao Xi failed in the examination. He failed the exam again and again after taking the exam for twenty-four years. At that time, Mr. Bao had passed away. Bao Xi had been studying since he was a child and did not know how to manage the family business. His fellow clan members took the opportunity to secretly collude and bribed the government.

, occupied Bao Xi’s house and farmland. Bao Xi was helpless and could only let his tribe bully him. Seeing this, his servants knew that Bao Xi was a useless person and became bolder. Instead of taking away the antiques from Bao Xi’s house

By stealing the calligraphy and painting and selling them, he colluded with a traitor and forced Bao Xi to sell the land at a low price. In just a few years, all of Bao Xi's property was lost and he could only make a living. Mrs. Bao was so angry that she died of a sudden illness. Bao Xikong

After living for thirty-seven years, not only was his family property lost, his wife died of illness, and he did not even leave any heirs, leaving only a box of books with him.

"Those fellow clan members, corrupt officials, and evil servants have benefited a lot from Bao Xi. However, these people know that Bao Xi has been studying since he was a child and worked very hard. Although he failed in many trials, no one dares to say that Bao Xi

He will definitely not pass the Juren exam. These people have tricked Bao Xi into ruining his family and offending Bao Xi so much. Once Bao Xi is selected as a Juren one day and becomes an official, if he takes revenge on everyone, his methods will be extremely ruthless. These traitors are for

In order to eliminate the root cause and avoid future troubles, they secretly colluded and wanted to kill Bao Xi. In those days, Bao Xi walked at night and was beaten to death. He almost got burned to death while sleeping in a broken house. He was suddenly pushed when passing by a dry well.

He almost fell into a well and died, and there were many such strange things. Fortunately, Bao Xi was lucky and managed to escape death every time and did not die tragically on the spot.

"Although Bao Xi is a nerd, he is just ignorant of world affairs, but he is not a fool. After several strange things, he has noticed that someone is secretly watching and wants to harm his life, and he is frightened and uneasy. Bao Xi knows that he

Bao Xi's hands were powerless and he was unable to fight against these traitors. If he continued to live in Liangzhou, he would one day die tragically at the hands of these traitors. At that time, Bao Xi's parents and wife were already dead, and the fields and houses at home were also destroyed.

After all the traitors were taken away, Liangzhou no longer had anyone or anything to worry about. So after Bao Xi made up his mind, he took the only box of books he had left and fled Liangzhou overnight, running all the way, thinking

Find a place where you can settle down and study hard before entering the examination hall.

"When Bao Xi fled Liangzhou, he only had a dozen or so taels of silver left with him. Half a month after he ran away, there was not much left. When he arrived in Luoyang that day, he only had seven or eight taels of silver left with him.

He was so frightened that he didn't dare to spend money to stay in a hotel, so he had to patrol outside Luoyang City, looking for a village and asking the villagers for a night's stay. However, he had just arrived in Luoyang and didn't know the roads. The more he walked, the more desolate he became. Not only did he not find it,

Instead, he walked into a barren mountain in a daze. It was completely dark at that time, and no one could be seen around him. He could only hear the whining wind and the chirping of night owls. Bao Xi was so scared that he wanted to walk along

Walking back the way he came, he didn't expect that the further he walked, the more desolate he became. He was so frightened that he almost cried.

"As the saying goes, there is no perfect road. Bao Xi was running around in the barren mountains, and unexpectedly walked into a dilapidated temple. The gate and walls of the temple had collapsed, and several palaces and pavilions had collapsed.

There are only broken walls and ruins of the wing rooms. Only the main hall is still relatively complete, but there are only a few big holes left in the windows and most of the roof has collapsed. Bao Xi ran for most of the night, frightened and frightened.

I was exhausted and unable to walk any further, so I had to carefully sneak into the main hall and huddle in a corner of the main hall, planning to stay for one night and wait until dawn before finding a way out of the mountain.

"It's just that even though he had a place to live, Bao Xi was so anxious that he couldn't sleep no matter what. Thinking that he only had a few coins left and he didn't know where he would live tomorrow, he was so anxious that he couldn't sleep at all.

Unable to fall asleep. Just when Bao Xi was frightened and restless, he suddenly heard the sound of a horse neighing outside the door. He was startled, thinking that this was an abandoned temple, and when he was running staggeringly in the barren mountains, he realized that

The roads in the mountains were in dilapidated condition. How could anyone arrive here on horseback? Could it be that there were bandits hiding in the mountains who had been watching for a long time. When they saw themselves hiding in the ruined temple, these strong men surrounded the ruined temple and broke in to kill them.

Can’t you die?!”
