Xu Qing cupped his hands and said, "Humble positions naturally belong to people."
As he spoke, he pointed to the ground: "People have shadows."
Li Dong bravely walked up and stretched out his hand tremblingly to touch Xu Qing's neck. He breathed a sigh of relief: "He... he is human... he has body temperature."
Zhao Captou asked suspiciously: "Could it be that the previous marriage was misjudged? Fortunately, it didn't lead to a big mistake. If it were buried carelessly like the other people, even the living people would be suffocated to death..."
However, except for Xu Qing, the rest of the group were stabbed in vital parts by bandits with knives. It was unlikely that Xu Qing could survive like this.
Even if it is possible, it has been buried for a long time. Regardless of whether he was dead when he was buried, he is definitely dead now!
After Zhao Captou thought about it for a while, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that it was a false alarm.
Just now, Liu Ji and Li Dong ran into the yamen and started shouting, which made people in the county yamen panic.
Zhao Captou raised his head and looked at Xu Qing and said, "How do you feel now? Are you feeling unwell?"
Xu Qing shook his head and said: "I didn't notice any discomfort at all."
Capt. Zhao said: "As long as nothing happens, our Yong'an County Government has sacrificed a lot of colleagues this time, so manpower is a little tight. If you are healthy, you can come to the county office on time tomorrow to order some mao."
Xu Qing nodded and said: "Yes."
After Capt. Zhao and Capt. Yiqian left, Liu Ji and Li Dong looked at Xu Qing with confusion and said, "Weren't you already cold at that time? How come your body is so warm?"
Xu Qing said foolishly: "You feel wrong, right?"
Liu Ji looked at the apple cores lying on the ground with some distress and said, "The two of us pooled together ten cents to buy this fruit..."
Li Dong suddenly said at this time: "By the way, you are alive again, what about the five taels of silver pension?"
Xu Qing calmly hid the five taels of silver in his sleeves, and asked with confusion on his face: "What five taels of silver?"
Li Dong said, "That's the pension for you. It's five taels! It's enough for the three of us to go to Piaoxiang Courtyard to sleep with the girl!"
Liu Ji looked at Li Dong and said, "Yes, there are five taels of silver here! Take it out quickly! Whoever sees it will have a share!"
Li Dong asked doubtfully: "Isn't it in your body that I remember?"
Liu Ji looked around and said, "No!"
Li Dong also touched his body, then shook his head and said, "I don't have it either!"
Xu Qing looked at them and said, "Did you get scared and ran too fast just now, and the money fell out?"
Li Dong and Liu Ji were too panicked because they were frightened, and they were not sure whether the money had been lost, so they hurriedly said: "Quick, let's go outside and look for it. Don't let any money-grubbing person pick it up!"
"
After taking Liu Ji and Li Dong out, Xu Qing took out the silver from his sleeves, quickly pressed it under his pillow, and then removed all the incense burners and candles.
After finishing the work, Xu Qing wiped the sweat from his head, sat at the table, poured a glass of water and put it in his mouth.
At this moment, Liu Ji and Li Dong came in cursing:
"Damn it, some bastard must have picked it up!"
"There are five taels of silver! I curse that bastard who picked up the money to choke to death when he drank water! He choked to death when eating! In short, he will not die a good death!"
They now truly experience something more painful than the most painful thing in life:
People are still alive, but the money is gone...
"Ahem!"
Xu Qing felt a tickle in his throat, and he choked on the water that had just entered his mouth and coughed out all of it.
Perhaps feeling guilty, Xu Qing said defensively: "You guys just wanted to run away at that time. You lost your money in a panic and you can't blame others."
Even though they were reluctant, Liu Ji and Li Dong were helpless.
When it was time to leave, both of them were thinking about the "lost" five taels of silver...
After sending away Liu Ji and Li Dong, who were still mentally unbalanced, Xu Qing sat at the table and thought about the current situation.
Once it comes, make peace with it.
In fact, this sentence seems to express an optimistic and positive attitude, but is it actually not a compromise for the incompetent?
If you were some kind of fantasy power, with the ability to break the void and travel through dimensions, would you still be able to stay here peacefully? It’s not that you are naturally optimistic, it’s because you simply can’t go back! What else can you do if you’re uneasy?
manage?
Find a cliff and jump off?
Let’s see if we can do a second time travel and go back in time?
Do you have the courage?
Xu Qing didn't know if others had it, but he didn't have it himself...
We still have to accept the reality, and it is true that we can survive by being honest.
However, as the old saying goes, when God closes a door for you, he will also open a window for you.
Although Xu Qing has traveled through time and does not have a system, fortunately some of his previous work experience are almost consistent with his current experience.
This is very gratifying.
I am determined not to be a detective for the rest of my life. The meager salary is only enough for me to eat and drink.
As for the imperial examination...
Firstly, he doesn’t know the Four Books and Five Classics, and secondly, he doesn’t know how to write classical Chinese. Moreover, the status of a policeman in ancient times was not high. If you work as a policeman, you will not be able to take the imperial examination for three generations...
There is absolutely no way to go this way...
Doing business?
The capital is not enough!
The original owner only saved a little over two taels of silver, and finally used his last strength to get five taels of silver, which was not even enough to buy a shop.
Given the current level of poverty in my family, if I want to get money quickly, I have to either use a knife or a bowl.
Either I can drive this mountain, or I can do it...
One of these is illegal and the other is embarrassing.
After thinking about it for a long time, it seems that he can only maintain his life by working as a policeman for the time being...
Xu Qing spent noon time to simply tidy up the house, and used the money to buy some rice, flour and food.
There are not many things at home.
A bed, a few tables, a few stools, a few books, and some kitchen utensils in the kitchen.
In addition, Xu Qing already had less than seven taels of silver in his hand.
These are all the belongings of Xu Qing's family.
It can no longer be described as poor!
They are both detectives. If the situation in my own family is like this, then Liu Ji and Li Dong's family will probably not be much better.
Are you still clamoring about going to Piaoxiang Building to sleep with girls every day?
What are you thinking about every day if you don't make money well?
In the evening, Xu Qing made a simple bowl of noodles with an egg and a few green vegetables nestled on the noodles.
Stir-frying in this world is still in the development stage. Naturally, the policeman's family does not have the conditions for cooking. Moreover, Xu Qing's family does not have a pot that can be used for cooking. He plans to ask a blacksmith to make one tomorrow.
However, one thing is that in his previous life, his cooking skills were quite good. In his previous life, he rented a house alone and his only hobby was studying recipes.
Although it cannot be compared with top chefs, the food produced is still delicious in appearance and flavor.
There are very few entertainment options in Yong'an County at night, and even if they are, they are high-consumption places.
Xu Qing's seven taels of silver cannot afford to be squandered several times.
