Section 6 Li Tai asks for advice

This is the bad thing about feudal society. It always likes to chop off people's heads unprincipled. This thing is not a gecko's tail. It can grow back if it falls off.

Thinking of that treasure, Yun Ye's heart aches like a knife. The Mountain of Light, this is the name given by Yun Ye, a diamond the size of a fist. The light reflected when placed under the sun makes people unable to open their eyes. It belongs to a tribe.

They treasure it and take it out every spring to worship the sun. In order to allow the diamond to reflect the sun a few more times, they grind out a few crude facets.

After Hong Cheng heard about it, he was salivating. He surrounded the whole village with his people and asked them to hand over the gems and give them two carts of linen in exchange. Otherwise, he would kill them all and go get it himself.

The power of faith is very powerful. The villagers swallowed their saliva and refused the temptation of two carts of linen. The idiot elder also took out diamonds to increase the strength of each warrior, asking the sun god to bless his warriors with invulnerability, water and fire.

That's good. They didn't need to launch an attack. The red-eyed Hongcheng bandits killed them first. Not to mention these warriors who were blessed by the Sun God, Hong Cheng, who was stunned by the treasure, couldn't even face the Sun God at this time.

Dare to take the knife.

Facts have proved that the Sun God is no match for the God of Wealth. Those warriors fell to the ground and died in the rain of arrows. The crossbows of the Tang Dynasty were not something that the native warriors covered in the glory of the Sun God could withstand.

After all the soldiers died, the elder stood on the top of the cliff holding the diamonds, claiming that if Hongcheng did not give him four loads of linen, he would jump off with the diamonds in his arms. After some final bargaining, the deal was settled with three loads of linen.

Under the dull eyes of the bandits of the Tang Dynasty, the elder proudly handed the diamond to Hong Cheng. He took the remaining warriors and dragged three carts of linen home. The big cart was considered a supplement. Needless to say, after a while

Time will tell how wise the native elders were, exchanging one stone for three loads of linen, and everyone will have new clothes to wear. As for the twenty or thirty soldiers who died, they are just legends in the elders’ stories.

A trivial embellishment.

The more primitive the politics, the more cruel it is. It reduces the high-sounding links and displays the reality nakedly in front of Hong Cheng. After hearing the follow-up of this story, he learned that he had become the fool who was fooled in the story. Hong Cheng did not

He got angry, laughed until tears flowed down his face, and finally turned into howling. From that moment on, he was filled with disgust towards this priceless mountain of light. He was unwilling to even touch it, thinking that the stone was worse than shit.

All dirty.

He would rather hold a gold nugget of more than 20 kilograms than touch a diamond with a higher value. Yun Ye told him that the gold nugget had more human lives on it. Hong Cheng, who was stubborn, was willing to hold on to what he thought was the right thing to do.

He didn't want to touch the clean gold. He didn't want to touch the dirty gem. He believed that human life would not be attached to gold. It was Yun Ye's fault, not gold. This strange theory confused Yun Ye for a long time.

, and I haven’t figured out the reason. I can only think that this is his personal persistence.

After putting the treasure down, Li Er kicked him several times. He was not kicked at all, but scolded. However, when Li Er opened the box and saw the diamonds that looked like a new sun under the scorching sun, he was furious.

. Kicked Yun Ye on the legs several times, then pointed at the palace door and told him to get out quickly, so as not to make him angry.

Who are you? I just want to take it home and show it off for a few days. Let the students in the academy see what my husband has gained after his long journey. In the end, it should be put back into the treasury. This thing should be in the homes of ministers? The emperor also

We can only put it in the treasury to keep it at the bottom, and show it off when envoys or the like come.

Li Er's favorite show off now is to pretend to accidentally break the glass cup. Last time, a fierce man appeared in the army, the kind who can defeat thousands of enemies with a hundred horses. His name is Xi Junmai. Li Er

After the summons, he celebrated the hero's success and drank with the generals during the banquet. Li Er, who was holding a glass cup, personally handed the cup to Xi Junmai and encouraged him to kill more enemies and win glory for the country. Xi Junmai was ready to take the wine cup with both hands.

At that moment, Li Er's hand slipped, and the glistening glass lamp suddenly fell to pieces. Xi Junmai knelt down on the spot and claimed to be a capital offender. Li Er laughed and said that only a brave general like Xi Junmai would be the leader of the Tang Dynasty.

Blessing, a mere wine cup means nothing. There is another wine cup like this. He ordered the waiter to take it out, fill it with wine and pass it to Xi Junbuy again. The grateful Xi Junbuy pulled out his hand with a knife on the spot, leaving a big bloody hole.

The blood flowed into the wine cup, and he drank it all in one gulp, vowing to shed the last drop of blood for the Tang Dynasty. Satisfied, Li Er also rewarded the wine cup to Xi Junbuy. The guests in the hall congratulated in unison. It didn't take much to think about it.

Xi Jun bought Li Er just to blow up the enemy's bunker with a pack of explosives, and he didn't hesitate at all.

Just after he was kicked out of the palace, he met Li Tai with a sinister smile on his face. He took out a small bottle and asked Yun Ye: "Sir, is there any way to make this thing bite only one person without involving others?"

Yun Ye became angry as soon as he saw it. Who allowed him to take out the big ant from the academy's maze? This thing is too dangerous. It is usually kept in a huge glass tank. The academy spent a lot of effort to remove it from a hundred

There are now less than 10,000 of them, but they cannot be released outside as they are. This thing has very poor adaptability and is invincible in the desert. But in the humid and rainy Chang'an, it has no reproductive ability.

The birds were always snatching away one or two of them, which made it impossible for Yun Ye to use it as a barrier. Now, this guy actually took it out as a toy and was bitten.

There is no difference if you pinch it with red-hot tongs.

Huo Biao, a classmate who likes to play with these things, was accidentally bitten and howled for the whole day. This was despite Sun Simiao's careful care.

"Who asked you to take this thing out to play with? If you are bitten, you know the consequences. Mr. Sun can't even help you relieve the pain. It's too dangerous. Besides, if this thing mutates and settles in Chang'an, then

But it’s a catastrophe.”

"You're scaring me again. Do you think I don't know that worker ants have no reproductive capacity? Whoever has nothing to do will take out the queen. I'm just asking you if there is a way to make him bite only one person without affecting other innocent people? Tell me quickly,

I'm anxious."

A face that deserved to be beaten suddenly appeared in Yun Ye's mind. Needless to say, these ants were prepared for him. Thinking of this, Yun Ye said: "If you don't listen carefully in class, these big ants have a duty to protect the queen.

, they are loyal and would rather die for this goal. The way they identify the queen ant is the smell. Remember, do not let the dew-like thing excreted by the queen ant be on your body, otherwise, those ants will

I will come to you. Next time in class, listen carefully and don’t just pick the class you like.”

Li Tai bowed to express his gratitude very politely. He was always very polite to those who could solve his mysteries and was a good student.

When they left the palace this time, Lao Zhuang followed Yun Ye closely with Wangcai. When he saw Yun Ye coming out of the palace, Wangcai ran over with the bulging money bag under his neck. It was a familiar place.

Let your mood improve.

Jumping on Wangcai's back, there was no need to push him, Wangcai let out a scream, and fought all the way to Yushan along Zhuque Street.

Wangcai's physical strength has really improved a lot. He galloped all the way from Chang'an without breaking a sweat. When he saw the vermilion archway in the distance, he hissed and sped up a bit, leaving Lao Zhuang and the others far away.

Leaving behind, Iron Shoes stepped onto the stone road, slowed down, and swayed to ask Yun Ye to come down, as it was preparing to go shopping.

The servants of the Yun family who were waiting at the entrance of the plaque saw the Marquis coming back. They knelt down and cried like their dead parents. They kicked each other to stop crying. When they saw Wangcai snoring in dissatisfaction, they quickly unloaded Wangcai's horse.

The other one yelled, "The Marquis is back!" and ran home rolling and crawling.

When people in the market saw Yun Ye, who was fully armored, he kept bowing and saluting. Yun Ye also smiled and returned the salute. They were all from the countryside, and it was not good to take advantage of the Marquis.

"You have worked hard on the expedition, Lord Marquis. I heard that the army wiped out dozens of unsubordinate states in the south and brought countless treasures to the court. Your hard work is a great achievement. The old man's sweet-scented osmanthus wine has been added with dried fruits. It tastes pretty good. You must drink it."

."

This can't be refused. The old man makes thick wine once a year and sends some to his family every time. If he gets some cakes and other gifts in return, he will be proud for half a year. This is his greatest dignity, not to mention that the old man actually learned the polite way of persuading people to drink.

It seems that he has been practicing for a long time, and his movements for serving wine are all orchid fingers. I just don’t know which brothel I learned them from.

It was very good. I happened to be a little thirsty, so I ignored the old man's orchid fingers, picked up the bowl and drank it down in one gulp. He extended his thumb and said "good". The old man's face suddenly glowed red and he said continuously: "Master Hou has returned with a great victory, little one."

I still have some at home, so I sent them to my house and asked grandma to try them too."

The hawker selling mash held Wangcai's head and cried loudly. The fat Wangcai turned into a tall horse. It didn't look good at all. It was all because he didn't drink mash. Poor, he was so hungry. Today's mash was not good.

After selling it, I poured the sweet-scented osmanthus pickled in sugar into the fermented glutinous rice as others do, and asked Wangcai to drink it. Wangcai happily put his head into the barrel and drank loudly.

He was obviously kidnapped, but the family acted like the head of the family was returning from an expedition. Everyone was waiting at the door to greet him. The old lady was sitting on a chair, leaning on her crutches and looking at the grandson with a smile.

When Wai Chua came in, in her opinion, it didn't matter whether her grandson was running away in embarrassment or fighting bravely, it was all the same. As long as he came back safely, it was fine. As for whether he had made any achievements or not, it really wasn't that important.

The old grandma is getting older. Before she was kidnapped, she still had black hair. Although there were some white hairs mixed in, there were not many. After just one year, her hair turned completely white.

He took the first step and bowed down: "Grandma, my grandson is back." The old grandma touched Yun Ye's face and said with tears, "Okay, okay, my grandson is back, just come back."

Next to her, Xin Yue had cried so much that she was weak. The child in her arms stared at this strange man with big eyes. Na Mu, with her huge belly, was looking at her husband with a smile while being supported by the maid. She was the only strong one in the whole family.
