It was already the evening of the next day when Yu Qing woke up from his coma. He opened his eyes and looked around, and found that he was lying in an elegant quiet room. He could smell the strong aroma of medicine, and the room was full of medicine.
Yu Qing, who looked haggard, could be seen standing beside the couch.
There were also Pu Dian officials, who were walking around the house with heavy expressions and their hands behind their backs.
On the night of the accident, Yu Qing brought Ash Heng here, and Ash Heng reminded him before he fell into coma to find Pu Dianli.
Yu Qing didn't know where Pu Dianli's house was. Fortunately, Pu Dianli had told him in advance that if he needed help, he would go to a shop on the corner of the street to find the shopkeeper.
Of course, Yu Qing also knew what happened in the kitchen before Ash Heng fell into coma. The snake demon hanging on the beam without its head actually reacted violently after it hit the ground, swiping its tail and sweeping down half of it.
wall, causing half of the kitchen to collapse.
Fortunately, it was just a kitchen and was constructed relatively lightly, so not many heavy objects would fall, otherwise it would be very likely that more than one arm would be broken.
He has been examined and treated, and except for the arm, there are only minor injuries from the tiles smashing into him.
Yu Qing's eyes moved slightly, and he noticed that the unconscious man had opened his eyes, and shouted, "Are you awake?"
Pu Dianli hurried to the couch and said with concern: "Master..." He didn't know what to say after that, so he choked out, "Just take good care of yourself."
Ashheng asked: "Has the scene of the accident been dealt with?"
Pu Dianli comforted him and said, "Young Master, don't worry. We have arranged for our own people to take care of the aftermath. If you don't want it to be spread, it won't be spread."
Ashheng looked up at his injured arm, which was tightly wrapped. He wanted to move his injured arm, but found that he could only move his shoulder, and there was no reaction except for pain in the lower part.
When Yu Qing and Pu Dianli saw this, they both turned and looked aside.
Ashheng was keenly aware of the two people's unbearable gaze, and realized the seriousness of the problem. The injured arm was his writing arm, and asked: "Is it seriously injured?"
No one said anything.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn.
After a long time, Ashheng asked again, "I am disabled, can't I be cured?"
Up to now, Pu Dianli did not hide it from him, and sighed: "Ordinary people may not be able to do it, but the young master should not be so desperate. However, the elbow bone was smashed to pieces, and it is difficult for ordinary good doctors to restore it."
As before, I'm afraid we have to find someone who is extremely skilled in medical practice. If the boss was still in office, this shouldn't be a big problem, it would just be a matter of a word from the boss. But now, our abilities are limited, I'm afraid.
You have to think of a solution slowly, it will definitely take more time, and the young master may have to suffer for a while longer."
Yu Qing quickly added, "Don't be afraid, my junior uncle will definitely have a cure when he comes back."
Ashheng understood what the two of them meant. Regardless of whether he could be cured or not, he would definitely not be cured before going to Beijing for the examination. In other words, he would not be able to participate in this examination.
This was what Yu Qing and Pu Dianli were worried about. Before he woke up, they had discussed it many times, fearing that Ashheng would not be able to accept the result.
Especially Yu Qing, he didn't know what to say to comfort him, and his guilt was beyond words.
While the other party was in a coma, he had been blaming himself, regretting that he should not have cooked any spiritual rice, otherwise he would not have attracted the three snake monsters.
If Ashheng's arm is really disabled and cannot be cured, the court will not hire a person with incomplete limbs.
He knew very well how much Asshiheng suffered from studying hard in these years.
His father Ajiezhang really spent a lot of effort to train his son to enter the official career.
If the hard work and expectations of two generations of father and son were destroyed by Yu Qing's recklessness, he himself would not know how to face it.
Ashheng had quietly closed his eyes, but the expression on his face was extremely complicated, and he was probably feeling all kinds of things in his heart.
Both Yu Qing and Pu Dianli knew that no matter who else had this kind of thing happen to them, they would not be able to act like a normal person, and they would find it difficult to accept it.
But things have already happened, what can the two of them say?
The room was quiet for a while, and Ashheng, who had calmed down, seemed to slowly enter another state. His brows were sometimes furrowed, sometimes loosened, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a long time, he suddenly opened his eyes again and said:
Bai's lips moved, "Mr. Pu, I have something to tell him."
Pu Dianli understood, nodded slightly, glanced at Yu Qing, turned around and went out.
Yu Qing looked at the man on the couch eagerly, wondering what he wanted to say to him in private.
Unexpectedly, Ash Heng asked a question that was difficult for him to answer, "No matter your age, seniority or seniority, it is not your turn to take charge of Linglong Temple. The old temple master is not a confused person, why would you be allowed to take over as the temple master?"
?" Apparently he wanted to take the opportunity to clear up the doubts in his mind.
Yu Qing's lips tightened for a while, "Bookworm, every sect has its own privacy that cannot be disclosed to outsiders. I can't tell you this."
Ashheng did not dwell on this issue and changed the question, "Why did you want to steal your senior brother's money?"
Why are you asking this question again? Yu Qing was confused and kept mumbling, "It's their money, and it's not their money. Master said before he died that a bowl of water was even, so he divided the remaining money in the temple into four parts.
The share was divided among four of our senior brothers. Linglongguan’s conditions were such that it was difficult to retain people. I originally had more than a dozen senior brothers, but all of them ran away one after another. The three of them came back due to special reasons.
Now that they have money, they can neither defeat me nor accept me as the host. Do you think they will stay in a poor mountain den and suffer?
Do you think they can obey me if I don’t steal their money? As long as their money is in my hands, even if they don’t obey me, they can’t run away easily because of the money. It’s hard to fly far away without money.
, so that I can have time to slowly solve the current problem.
I can't just take over Linglong Temple and kill all the people. Then what should I do as the owner of the temple? How will I explain to my uncle and my dead master later? I let them answer for themselves.
If they don't take my words seriously, then I will have no choice but to take them away."
This is what happened, Ash Heng thought thoughtfully.
Yu Qing saw something was wrong and asked, "Now that things are like this, do you still have the time to mind such nosy matters?"
Ash Heng: "You grew up in Linglong Temple, and Linglong Temple rarely gives you pocket money. You have always been 'hungry' for money. I knew you were greedy for money, but I didn't expect that you would be able to do so as soon as you took over as the head of the temple.
To force my senior brother to pay money in the name of the temple master is too greedy for money. If I don't understand this matter clearly, there are some things I wouldn't dare to entrust."
Yu Qing rolled his eyes when he heard what he said, but seeing the misery of the other party, he couldn't find the energy to argue because of his guilt and self-blame, "Tell me, if you have anything you can say, as long as I can do it, I will
I’ve done it all for you.”
Ashheng: "Please come in, Mr. Pu."
Yu Qing didn't say anything, got up and left, saying hello outside, and when he came back, Pu Dianli also came with him.
After the two arrived, a trace of determination seemed to flash across Ashiheng's face, and he said in an unquestionable tone: "Continue to participate in this examination!"
The corner of Yu Qing's mouth twitched, wondering if this person couldn't accept the reality and had gone insane.
Pu Dianli frowned and had similar worries.
Unexpectedly, Ashheng, who was lying there, tilted his head and stared directly at Yu Qing, saying word by word: "You go to the exam and take my place!"
"..." Yu Qing was stunned, thinking that he heard wrongly, and pointed at himself.
Pu Dianli was also obviously frightened.
"Yes, you pretended to be me and went to Beijing to participate in this examination." Ashheng emphasized clearly.
I made it clear that if you dare to be honest, you have to be serious!
The sadness that Yu Qing and Pu Dianli had felt before was instantly gone. They were both frightened and stunned.
Is it such a big deal? Yu Qing, who had woken up, was a little panicked and waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, I really can't do this, and there's no way I can pass the exam! I'll continue to play the role of escort, and you can do the replacement thing.
Find someone else!"
Ashheng asked back: "Does it matter whether you passed or failed the exam?"
"Uh..." Yu Qing was stunned, unable to react for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"
Ashheng stared at Pu Dianli and said slowly: "A candidate who suddenly withdraws from the examination cannot be fooled by just one sentence. The imperial court will send someone to verify my situation. I said that once I am admitted for some reason,
Once the list of those who took the exam by mistake is reported to the court, it will be easily noticed by others. Once the murderer behind the scenes is alerted, the consequences will be disastrous. Furthermore, the court will not admit people with disabilities. Regardless of whether it can be cured or not, it is a big problem for my arm to be injured like this.
, we must not let the court know, and we must leave room for change.”
Pu Dianli nodded slightly after hearing this. He knew this well. Checking why the candidates delayed taking the exam could be regarded as a favor from the imperial court to the candidates. It was used to deter Xiaoxiao and prevent anyone from misbehaving against the candidates.
Ash Heng looked at Yu Qing again, "If I refuse the examination, I will be very passive once the people from the court come to investigate. I will be unable to avoid people who have seen me in the county government, and it will be difficult for me to manipulate them, so
We must take the initiative and prevent people from the court from coming to check. As long as you take the exam normally, the court will not come down to check. That’s why I need you to take the exam normally. Even if you fail to pass the exam, it doesn’t matter, at least for the next time.
I bought myself a few years by taking the exam again. Even if I become invalid, it will still take time to find a suitable replacement who can pass the exam."
Hearing this last sentence, Yu Qing was frightened, and he vaguely felt the deep meaning of the words, but there were some things that he didn't want to think about too much.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to help, but why is this method so leaky? Yu Qing said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: “The Beijing Examination is a grand event for the country, how can it be easily faked? You just said that someone in the county government knows you, but I
You'll be exposed as soon as you stand out! Nerd, it's not that I don't agree, it's just that I can't agree to this."
Ashheng: "You don't have to worry about this. Mr. Pu will take care of this and no one will recognize you."
Really? Yu Qing turned around and looked at Pu Dianli up and down, full of suspicion, obviously doubting that a mere Dianli could have so much energy?
Unexpectedly, Pu Dianli couldn't hold his anger anymore and was obviously a little panicked. He waved his hands again and again, "Sir, how could I cover up this matter? I can't kill everyone who has seen you, right?"
I can kill the people in the county, but I can’t kill the people above! There’s really no way around it. He’ll have to reveal his secrets as soon as he shows up, and he can’t pass by pretending.”
Yu Qing immediately spread his hands to Ash Heng, as if you were looking at him, and he felt relieved.
