With the acquiescence of Sheng Taishou, the old man had a resting place outside his hometown.

Li Yinzhou stood in front of the tomb with his little cum Yan.

The Ji family used to be a scholarly family in Wujun County. It has been poor for generations, and it has been poor for a lifetime. The century-old family has withered to this point, and only a three-year-old child is left to be buried.

The evening wind is like rain, easily blowing out the setting sun.

Jiyan didn't know other complicated characters, but she knew that the word "ji" on the stele was her surname, so she gestured to Li Yinzhou in a ignorant way: "Ji, shi."

The old man's life of wandering and wandering will end up in the loess, and it will be abbreviated as a short stroke on the tombstone, letting the rain and wind erase the last traces.

Li Yinzhou wiped away his snot and bubbles, and told him: "Grandmother will live here from now on, if you want to miss her, come here to visit her."

The young child tilted his head, nodded earnestly, and suddenly remembered something, rolled his eyes, and tried his best to spell out a complete sentence: "What if grandma misses Ayan?"

For an immature new life, life and death are just one of countless partings, and he still doesn't know how to distinguish the difference.

Li Yinzhou was silent for a while, the knowledge of modern science filled his mind, but it was difficult to find the answer to this question.

The distant waves are endless, and in the evening wind, a small drop of water suddenly breaks through the dark sky, and smudges a small circle on the dry soil.

Wujun ushered in the first rain in late autumn.

Every drop of water in the river drifts with the tide to the cape and cannot look back.But even so, the passing tide will rise as water vapor, condense into raindrops, trace back in the sky, and then re-moisten the earth.

He knelt down, let the raindrops wet the hair of the two of them, and gently told Jiyan:

"Every drop of rain is my grandmother's longing for you."

--------------

Zhang Ji had no special expression when he heard the news of the death of this half-acquainted old man.

For the elderly, life and death are just one of countless partings, and he is also waiting for the last one.

After taking care of the funeral of the old lady Ji, the only difficult thing is where Ji Yan will go.

When Li Yinzhou walked in with Jiyan in his arms, Zhang Ji was quite interested to see how the child was recovering from his illness, but it seemed that he also felt the taste after eating at the same table for three consecutive days.

"You haven't troubled me enough, and you still want to carry a small burden?" He stared at the little apprentice in disbelief, "There are many rich and powerful families in Wu County, even if Sheng

The prefect doesn't have time to raise children, so he will definitely arrange a good family. Are you too young to be a parent? "

Word by word was rained down like raindrops, and the little girl Jiyan was so stunned that she gave up understanding and quietly counted the sixteen-character motto taught by her little brother.

Li Yinzhou scratched his ears, trying to fool him: "If he becomes an adopted son of the aristocratic family, he will definitely change his name and surname. He is the last blood of the Ji family, and he is really someone else's son. Be careful and the old lady will ask you for an explanation in the middle of the night. "

Zhang Ji didn't believe these nonsense words: "You and I didn't do anything. The injustice has its head and the debt has its owner. When did you become such a kind person?"

"The apprentice once..." Li Yinzhou reflected on the two years since he came to this era, and was momentarily at a loss for words.

It seems that none of the good things have been done, but the master has caused a lot of trouble.

He hid his embarrassment with a fake cough, avoided Zhang Ji's critical gaze, and lowered his head to wipe the saliva of the child.

Jiyan's well-behaved appearance always reminded him of that young boy in Lujiang City who had a similar fate.

Life in an aristocratic family may mean that there is no need to worry about food and clothing, and life is full and warm, but it also has to be stripped of a child's innocence.The joy of being a child may never have been owned, but the pain of growing up has been imprinted in advance.

He didn't really want Jiyan to repeat the same mistakes.

Zhang Ji peeled off a edamame, mixed it with the wine in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Your own sister has never seen you being so caring."

"Ah Huan, she doesn't want to come to Wu County, and she is reluctant to support her teacher." Li Yinzhou was helpless, that fragile and slender little girl also had her own teacher, her own relatives, his fake and shoddy elder brother could only live in the future. Pick it up.

Lu Xun had already inquired for him, and that teacher would soon travel to Sichuan, and Huan'er would follow her to leave Lujiang, so she would not be implicated by the flames of war.

"Forget it, you can raise it if you want, the old man just can't understand." Zhang Ji smacked his tongue, not paying attention to trivial matters in the world, and just asked casually, "This child has no relationship or reason with you, do you raise him?" Why is he?"

Li Yinzhou looked up at his master and remained silent for a long time.

Zhang Ji was horrified by his stare, he touched his face, his eyes were wary: "What do you see this old man doing?"

Li Yinzhou grinned, but his eyes were very sincere.

"Just like the master raised me back then."

There is no reason and no expectation of anything in return.

The short life is continuously extended in such a continuation.

--------------

At the end of the fourth year of Chuping, winter.

After two years of peaceful and leisurely life in Wu County, the year name that accompanied Li Yinzhou to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty has also quietly come to an end, and will be changed to Xingping in the coming Chinese New Year.

The year name always reveals the ruler's wishes, but no matter how frequently the request is lowered, the turmoil has become uncontrollable and intensified. Amidst the smoldering smoke, Wu County will inevitably be rippled by the waves, and the peaceful life is gradually shattered into waves. shimmering.

The most important thing is that Xu Gong will soon replace Sheng Xian as the prefect.

After the incident with Mrs. Ji, Sheng Xian immediately seized the opportunity to conduct a thorough investigation on her, clearing up dozens of unjust, false and wrong cases, and imprisoned him for two years.

However, this person has a deep relationship with Yan Baihu, the leader of the bandits. After all, Sheng Xian was unwilling to bring the flames of war to Wu County, and he never wiped out the roots.

Another reason is that he is really old.

Xu Gong does not have his talent, his benevolent character, and even his wrists. His steady and decisive coexistence, but there is only one thing, which is the disadvantage that Sheng Xian can't save no matter what.

That is age.

More than 40 tigers and wolves are in the prime of life, and the old man who is not confused has gradually become weak. Sheng Xian asked Zhang Ji for diagnosis and treatment several times.

"Once the old man leaves office, there will be no one to suppress Xu Gong. Mr. is a person who wants to help the common people, and it runs counter to what he has done. I am afraid that Wu Jun will not be able to stay."

Sheng Xian's dim eyes stared at the withered branches outside the window. At the end of his political life, he no longer put on the airs of the prefect, like an old man playing chess with Zhang Ji, calmly analyzing the situation with Zhang Ji.

"Sun Ce's filial piety is approaching, and I'm afraid the first ones to focus on are the two precious lands of Lujiang County and Wu County. He has always been at odds with the old man and Lu Taishou, but he also looks down on Xu Gong. He promoted his father Sun Jian's former subordinate Zhu Shen as the next captain, hoping to check and balance with Xu Gong."

Falling leaves return to their roots, Wu County is not Sheng Xian's hometown, and when he parted, he still made the last effort to plan for it.

Even Sun Ce, who has always been rebellious, was calculated by this old man.

Probably because he had a vague premonition that the sky was about to change. Although he did not choose to cooperate thoroughly like Lu Xun, the promotion of Zhu Shen, the former member of the Sun family, was also the greatest reconciliation he made for Wu County.

Zhang Ji asked for his pulse, he didn't know whether he was careless about political affairs, or he was too focused, so he didn't answer.

Sheng Xian's numb eyes rolled slightly, and his eyes fell on the young man who helped him solve the case in the past

Body.

Two years have passed, and the child of that day has grown like a willow branch, showing a flexible figure.The child's round face is gradually erased by time, the sharp eyebrows have the sharpness of a knife, and the tails of the eyes are lightly lifted, like a swallowtail cutting through the spring breeze.

He has seen the sharpness of this handsome face before, and he also knows that his talents and learning are different from ordinary youngsters. Two years ago, he was able to help him fight back against Xu Gong in the face of danger, and he will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future.

Sheng Xian's tired face suddenly relaxed, and the heavy responsibility that had been on his shoulders for years was finally relieved.

Although his time is not long, there are always descendants who can check and balance the tiger and wolf. Even if Zhang Ji and Li Yinzhou leave Wu County, the world is so big that there must be someone who is kind and willing to take over this responsibility.

"A Yin." He lowered his chin slightly and pointed to the side, "Captain Zhu Shen came to see the old man before, and said that before he took office, the young master of the Sun family had entrusted him with a letter to give to you. He went to Lujiang County first, but he didn't find you."

Sun Ce once advised him to leave Lujiang County, and he has a bold and unrestrained personality, so he would definitely not write a letter in a good manner. This young master of the Sun family pointed to someone else.

A white distant figure flashed across Li Yinzhou's mind.

He got up and picked up the roll of letter paper. This letter paper was a bit unusual. It used immature papermaking techniques. The rough texture was far worse than that of bamboo, but it was better in lightness.

Wu Township has a lot of water, people here rarely use this kind of fresh technology, but Sun Quan chose to use this kind of paper, which shows that he wanted the news to be brought, so he didn't want to stay for a long time.

Counting the days, Li Yinzhou can barely guess what's inside.

Sheng Xian closed his eyes and lay quietly on his back, as if he didn't care about the exchanges between these descendants.

Li Yinzhou lowered his eyes and unfolded the letter paper.

A fluffy white reed flower suddenly fell out.

Leaning over to pick up the reed flowers, there was only a simple sentence on the letter paper that was covered with fluff——

When the river goes back, be sure to avoid the rapids.

The boy's cold expression and slightly frowning brows seemed to be in front of his eyes, and Li Yinzhou could almost imagine his forced disdain.

These words were not only brought to him, but also wanted to be brought to the other two friends in Lujiang County through him.It's just that Sun Quan probably didn't expect that this news was predicted by Lu Xun two years ago.

Li Yinzhou quietly pinched the letter paper, his gaze swept across the sky outside the window.

The sky is a hazy and quiet haze, with a haze that burns through like a raging fire.In the collision of tranquility and blazing heat, the afterglow of the setting sun is like a boundless sea, embracing the night in the world with bottomless depth.

The two-year contract is coming.
