Dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty, I was working as a detective in Chang'an

It seems that the fat man's trick of attracting others is really good, and now Mr. Wei's hiding place has been found.

Early the next morning, the fat man headed towards the western suburbs carrying his robe.

The city of Chang'an is really big. The fat man started from the morning and walked until the afternoon. He felt that he had lost weight several times. He thought that he had caught Mr. Wei this time and he must give himself a good supplement. If he does this again How can I lose weight?

The Earth Temple in the western suburbs looks no different from the Earth Temples in other places. There is a room dedicated to the Earth God and the Earth Mother, and behind it is a yard. The people who care for the temple grow some fruits and vegetables in it to make themselves self-sufficient.

The fat man did not go in rashly. He walked around the outside of the Earth Temple and found that there was nothing very strange. It was no different from a normal Earth Temple.

He pushed open the door of the Earth Temple with a creak and found that there was no one in the temple. The Earth God was shining goldenly under the sunset, looking very happy.

He pretended to kneel down, kowtowed a few times to the Tu Gong and Tu Tu Po, and then clasped his hands together and recited a few sutras.

Then, he said to the Tu Tu Gong: "The young man pays homage to the Tu Tu Gong. My life has been very bumpy. I had no parents when I was young, and I learned some unfashionable medical consultation techniques from my master. However, I didn't want to be looked down upon by others. Originally, I didn't want to be looked down upon by others. I wanted to be a scholar, even if I wanted to be a minor official, but I had been taking the exam for more than [-] years without getting a meritorious title. I really had no choice but to come to the Land Master. It is said that the Land Master here is the best. Ling, I must let the younger one pass this provincial examination, please!"

As he said this, he kowtowed to the Lord of the Earth three times and bowed nine times, very piously.

At this time, a man walked out of the hall. He looked to be in his thirties. He was wearing a long robe. He was very handsome and had a slender figure. He looked like an ancient hero.

The fat man glanced at him, thinking that this must be the hero from the Earth Temple that Brother Tongpu talked about last night.

"Donor, you must be in trouble if you come to pay your respects so late, right?" the man said.

The fat man looked at him, said nothing, and continued to chant sutras.

The man was a little unhappy, but he still spoke in a gentle tone and said, "Okay, I won't disturb the donor anymore. If you have any difficulties, you might as well speak up. This will make you feel better."

The fat man said: "What if I tell you something? Can it be solved?"

The man said: "Then it depends on what happened."

The fat man said: "My family is poor. I started taking exams when I was 13 years old, and now I'm already in my thirties, but I haven't even been a scholar. I can't bring peace to the world with my pen, and I can't settle the world with my martial arts. I can't even get a wife." Come on, do you think a loser like me shouldn't live in this world?"

After saying that, the fat man shook his head helplessly and sighed longly to the land master.

"I want to pay my respects to the Lord of the Earth. Since it has received the incense of the world, why doesn't it always do something practical for people? Even if it makes me a scholar, it would be great."

The man said: "No noble son comes from a poor family. Sometimes we need to accept our fate. Don't fight against your fate, but know how to accept yourself. There is no fairness in this world."

The fat man said: "But I just don't want to accept my fate. How come some people are born with good food, good clothing, and can study and gain fame, while ordinary people like us can only make a living by growing some thin fields or go to work?" I'm a bit dissatisfied with working for the rich and having to see the end of my life from the time I was born!"

The man said: "You are as ambitious as a young man like me, but you only complain about the injustice of this world. We can either live peacefully or..." The man paused after saying this. , no more going on.

The fat man said: "What else? Is there any other way? I really don't want to live like this all my life. I want to be a master."

The man said: "If you want to live a high-class life and be admired and admired by everyone, the only way for you is to join the Xingbang Association. Together, we will work towards a great cause. When we succeed, we will be granted the title of Prime Minister and we will achieve a perfect life." , until then, do you still need to worship the Lord of the Earth?"

The fat man said: "You said it's easy, just rely on me? How can a little-known gangster still have this opportunity?"

The man said: "I think your conversational skills are extraordinary and you must be no ordinary person. That's why I extradited you to a bright road. It can take as long as five years or as little as three years. It will definitely allow you to live the life you want."

The fat man said, "It sounds very tempting. Let's talk about it."

The man said: "This world is actually too bad. It can't get any worse. People with money can do whatever they want. We who don't have money can only let others slaughter us. We must overthrow this world in order to create another clear world." . In that world, we will eventually realize all our ambitions. All high-ranking officials and generous salaries, beautiful wives and concubines, and things that honor our ancestors will be at our fingertips."

The fat man said: "Are you rebelling?"

The man said: "What's wrong with rebelling? I'm a man of martial arts. I originally thought it would be a great pleasure to fight for justice with a sword to the end of the world, but later I found out that I was so naive. Because I have no power, I am still being used by others. Bullied, misunderstood, man, only when you have power in your hands can you live like a human being and dominate others."

The fat man said: "Why should I believe you and join the rebellion with you so that I can live the life I want and become a superior person?"

The man said: "As long as you join, I will tell my lord that based on your medical skills, I will guarantee that you will become the imperial medical school captain. When you are successful, you will be granted a third-level title. How about it?"

The fat man secretly thought it was funny, how could a wandering doctor casually become an Imperial Medical Officer, and be directly promoted to a third-grade official? This was ridiculous.

The fat man said: "No way, is it that easy?"

The man said: "Now is the time to employ people. We in Xingbang will demote talents in any way. This is also the only way for you to get ahead in this life."

The fat man nodded and said: "You are right. I have been taking the exam for 20 years and have not been admitted as a scholar. How can I still have the dignity to continue to seek fame? I might as well join you and become a third-grade official by then." It’s a matter of honoring our ancestors. Okay, I promise you.”

The man nodded happily and said with a smile: "Smart people are indeed smart, and they can tell at once. How can a smart person like you stay in a small medical clinic all your life?"

The fat man said, "Well, after you said that, I feel more confident."

The man said: "Okay, I'll go ask Master right now. Please wait a moment."

After the man finished speaking, he walked towards the back hall.

After a while, a man wearing a black robe and a long beard slowly walked out, followed by the man from before.

This person is Mr. Wei!
