I walk the career line in dog blood

The distant Sanjin Village has already begun to discuss whether to pay for the construction of an archway for juren, and the students here are also calling for him to hold a banquet to celebrate.

After An Yinong organized a banquet to thank the teacher for his kindness, he held another small banquet, and several of them recited poems together.

He drank too much, his suet-colored skin was glowing, he tapped the table with his fingertips, and hummed a new poem.

Shan Chang has always felt that An Yinong's strength lies in "poetry", and his poems are naturally suitable for composing music and singing, but this is the first time for the classmates to hear him humming along with the rhythm.

Seeing the mountains and rivers flowing in his drunken and blurred eyes, listening to his melodious singing is almost bone-crushing, and people are lazily leaning on the railing, like a jade mountain toppled over.

Many of the classmates who came to congratulate were married and had children, not as good as Long Yang, but at this moment they couldn't turn their eyes away, and said with a blushing face: "My brother Yi Nong is drunk, so I don't want to help him."

So the two classmates booked a room for him nearby, helped him in, saw that he could take care of himself, and left without daring to stay longer.

An Yinong walked over and lay on the bed with his hair crown still on and his belt untied, his face was flushed after drunkenness, like a peach blossom soaked in dew.

A familiar warm fragrance appeared in the air, and the black clothes slid across the wooden floor.

The sound of footsteps stopped in front of the bed, and he bent down, wanting to cover him with a quilt, but he didn't want to stretch out a hand to grab the ends of his scattered hair, pull it closer inch by inch, and grab the sleeve.

"Aren't you drunk?"

"Drunk, woke up again." An Yinong who was sleeping on the bed raised the corners of his lips: If he is not drunk, when will this person dare to show himself?

He pulled his sleeves violently, and Gu Zhengzhong was pulled away, his face was almost pressed against his face, and the faint scent of rice wine wafted over.

"I miss you so much sir, did you ever miss me?"

Gu Zhengzhong turned his face to the side to avoid staring at each other: "I heard that your teacher chose a quiet beauty for you."

"I've already rejected it. I don't mean it. How can I delay that girl's flowering period?" An Yinong tilted his head to look at him, as if drunk, "How did sir know about this?"

Gu Zhengzhong choked, he couldn't say that he was secretly staring, it was not a gentleman's behavior - in front of An Yinong, he hoped that he was a gentleman without too many flaws in his character.

"Sir, I have passed the Juren examination." An Yinong leaned closer.

"I know." Gu Zhengzhong's arms were stiff, and he could kiss his face if he got closer, but he was reluctant to avoid it.

"Does the gentleman know that I have already decided to travel and gain knowledge by walking around?" An Yinong said softly, "I wanted to tell the gentleman first about this, but I don't know how to find you."

An Yinong didn't show misery or pretend to be pitiful, but Gu Zhengzhong still felt guilty, as if he had done something wrong and failed his expectations.

"I got it now."

"Would you like to go with me, sir?"

Gu Zhengzhong took a deep breath, although he didn't need to breathe anymore: "Yinong, do you know who I am? My surname is Gu, my name is Yu, and I belong to the Six Arts of Gentlemen. Yu, with the character in the middle, is the eighth generation grandson of Emperor Taizong of the Daye Dynasty more than 200 years ago. , When the capital of Daye was destroyed, I also died for the country.

"Yinong, I am a ghost who has been dead for many years. The closer you are to me, the more seriously you will be affected by me. The monk only said that it will hinder your lifespan, but he didn't tell you. If you stay together all the time, I'm afraid you will be sick in the future. entanglement, and damage the fate of descendants."

An Yinong's eyes widened slightly, not because Gu Zhengzhong was a ghost, nor because he was unable to have children, but because his name was Gu Yu.

Well, it's the same name as first love, so he's on the same page with 'X Yu', right?

"So, you want me to marry a wife and have children?" An Yinong was curious, is this man too generous?This is going to break his sleeves, and he still has to quit to make him marry a wife and have children?

There seems to be a gap between the thinking of the ancients and him.Let alone whether the girl is willing to take over the offer, even if there is such a fool, then Gu Zhengzhong himself will not be jealous?

Gu Zhengzhong was silent for a while, avoiding his eyes: "Yes, I hope you can live a normal life."

An Yinong blinked, then he suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled Gu Zhengzhong, turned his body over and pressed him on the couch: "But I'm not a normal person, how can I live a normal life?"

He was smiling, neither sad nor angry, pressing down on Gu Zhengzhong, hooking his chin: "You don't think I would marry a wife and have children without you, do you?"

This reaction was unexpected by Gu Zhengzhong. He opened his eyes slightly, and his head was firmly pressed down.

The crow at the window raised one wing over his eyes.

"I'm very picky. I have to be good-looking. I want to have a pair of red phoenix eyes. I have to have a good figure. I have to have long legs and a thin waist. I have to be well-educated. I can answer anything I ask. I have to understand music. When I play the piano, he needs to know what I'm playing. , you have to be a little clean freak, have a little fragrance on your body, have a cute personality, especially when you blush..."

An Yinong said more and lowered his head, then kissed Gu Zhengzhong, saw his fair face was pink, and then licked the corner of his lips: "It's as cute as you are right now."

"How can a man be cute?" Gu Zhengzhong finally regained his senses, he gently pushed An Yinong away, stood up with a blushing face, and ran to the table to drink herbal tea.

As for An Yinong, like a disciple who flirts with a little lady, he slowly sat up while waving his fan, his small eyes still seduce him: "In this world, men and women are all together, how many can I like?" ? If you don’t stay with me, won’t I just be a loner all my life?”

"You're drunk." Old Antique had never seen such a scene before, and Gu Zhengzhong suspected for a moment that he was the 'human' who was being pressed at every step.

"I'm not drunk." An Yinong also sat down on the round stool, "If I was drunk, would you still be able to sit here drinking tea with all my clothes on?"

"Stay with me, and you'll be sick with everything."

An Yinong didn't take it seriously. After passing through the last world, he learned a truth, one should not embarrass oneself, one must have fun in time, otherwise he will be single until his death.

"The weather is changeable. I am not in good health and catch cold and fever from time to time. What does it have to do with you? Besides, there is a risk of choking to death when eating. Do I not eat?"

Seeing An Yinong like this, Gu Zhengzhong explained the matter of feeding him spiritual objects and the merits of An Yinong's body: "Your merits can only last for a while, but not for a lifetime."

He intended to persuade An Yinong, but he didn't want An Yinong's eyes to shine.

"If I benefit my neighbors, I can resist it for a while, so if I benefit a county, can't I resist it for ten or 20 years? If I go one step further, it is not impossible for me to benefit a prefecture or a district, and grow old with you forever."

An Yinong directly grasped this logical loophole: "I believe that I can do it, but does your husband believe that I can do it?"

His attitude is so direct and decisive, giving people infinite courage.In front of him, it seems that the separation of yin and yang, those who are sick and have no descendants are not a big deal.

Gu Zhengzhong was even flattered for a moment, and secretly delighted to be favored by fate.

An Yinong had a lot of fallacies, and Gu Zhengzhong himself secretly hoped that the two of them would have a chance, so after drinking a cup of tea, Gu Zhengzhong vaguely agreed to go with An Yinong, and the two traveled poorly together.

As a result, An Yinong fell ill the next day.

"If you dare to leave, I really won't miss you from now on. It's not bad to be alone for the rest of my life." An Yinong who was lying on the bed coughed twice, and the corners of his eyes were moist.

Having said that, Gu Zhengzhong can still leave?Not only could he not leave, but he had to stay to take care of An Yinong, who had become particularly 'fragile' after being ill, and worked hard without complaint, without any demonic aura.

Of course, Gu Zhengzhong still had scruples about the monk's words, so he didn't dare to get too close, let alone make out.So every night An Yinong sleeps peacefully in the house, but he blows the wind with the crows on the roof all night.

Crow: ... Crows are born as lonely as snow.

Afterwards, An Yinong wrote a letter, telling the Imperial College about his plan to travel and offering wine to the Imperial College.His essays are gorgeous, with thoughtful sincerity revealed between the lines, and Guozijian Jijiu was also moved and allowed him to come back to school in two years.

Afterwards, he refitted the carriage to make it more suitable for long journeys, and took a coachman and a guard on the road.

They were walking with the caravan. The leader of the caravan heard that he was a juren, and felt that he was young and talented, and the future must be bright, so he refused to charge him no matter what.

An Yinong thought about it, and said that he could teach the businessman's two children along the way, which paid off the cost.

The businessman was overjoyed and took good care of him along the way.

"Boss, baked meat sandwiches." When the convoy stopped to start cooking, the guards came over with a meat-like bun, with a vegetable leaf and minced meat sandwiched between two cakes.

Coincidentally, this guard was the man who fled the famine with An Yinong back then, from his own family, surnamed Tian, ​​first name Tian Zhi.

Before his mother left, he ate a persimmon and half a catty of food in An Yinong, and he remembered it for several years. Later, he found out that there was that special paper (embossed napkin) in An Yinong's house, so he found him.

So now that An Yinong knew that An Yinong was going to travel far, he volunteered to come here after he had been walking with the caravan as a guard.

An Yinong took a large cake, ate it with the water in the water bag, and rinsed his mouth with mint tea before returning to the carriage. Gu Zhengzhong was playing chess in the carriage. He frowned slightly while twisting a black chess piece. It's a famous endgame.

He didn't bother Gu Zhengzhong, he opened the map and marked it, and rubbed the ink to write a travel note.

"It's really necessary to make a pencil." Whenever this time, An Yinong would sigh with emotion. When making small notes, a pencil is much easier to use than a brush.

The caravans do business along the road, so they have to stop for three to five days when they arrive at a place. They have traveled for more than a month and have not traveled more than [-] miles.This is exactly what An Yinong wanted. Three to five days is not enough for him to experience the most authentic customs.

After playing, he often has to write an article about the experience of playing, and even draw a picture.

"When we get back, we'll compile it into a book and print it at our own expense." An Yinong said with a smile.

However, his most important harvest is not this, but the prices, specialties, climate, land resources, etc. of each place.Everywhere he goes, he will assume several ways to get rid of poverty and become rich based on the experience of later generations, and will think about how to use the mildest method to achieve the best results.

No matter how beautiful the scenery along the way was, An Yinong never forgot the purpose of his scientific research efforts.

"But it's still not very comprehensive." The time of stay is too short. If you want to really know a place, you have to live for at least a few months, otherwise you will only know superficially. "If there is Baidu...eh?"

An Yinong looked slowly at Gu Zhengzhong: Although he doesn't have Baidu, he has Gu Zhengzhong.

Gu Zhengzhong is a ghost, and a very capable ghost, so does he have many human (ghost) hands that he can use?

Think about it, no one will guard against an invisible ghost.Moreover, ghosts generally have special abilities, and their perspective may be more comprehensive and careful.

Gu Zhengzhong, who was playing chess, suddenly felt a chill down his back. He turned his head, only to see An Yinong bowing his head and concentrating on writing.

After two days, An Yinong put forward his own idea.

"Who do you want to hire?" Gu Zhengzhong, a ghost who has lived for more than 200 years, was the first time he was so startled by someone's thoughts that he couldn't hold his teacup.

"Both ghosts and ghosts are fine, but I'm so shy that I can only afford a few boxes of incense sticks, so it's better to invite ghosts."

"..." Others can't bear to know that the people around them are ghosts, and they can't bear to hear that their lives will be shortened.

"Why the whim?"

An Yinong couldn't say that this was the inspiration brought by Taoist priests raising little ghosts, so he said righteously: "Demons, ghosts, and ghosts are just like humans, they are all creatures born on this land. It's just that the human race is domineering. After occupying it, they say that they are the master of all things." , everything else is crooked.

"I think that since we are all creatures nourished by this land, we are equal. There is nothing wrong with me hiring ghosts like other people."

This is the official tone, he just wants cheap labor that is easy to use and not expensive, that's all.

"Sir, would you like to help me?" An Yinong poured tea for Gu Zhengzhong with a celadon teapot.Gu Zhengzhong understood now that he was waiting for him here.

Also, to suppress ghosts and ghosts to work for him, only one human being is not enough.

Thinking that he still has such a different meaning to him, the 'ghost' who was plucked by wool felt happy.

Gu Zheng Zhongyuan is also a human being, with some deep-rooted thoughts of "human beings and ghosts are separated, and proximity is harmful". An Yinong paid a lot of price for being with him (sickness from time to time, inability to marry and have children, which is detrimental to official career).

Therefore, Gu Zhengzhong, who has always been conceited, always feels uneasy about fate favoring An Yinong.

Gu Zhengzhong hoped that he would be more useful and worthy of being liked by him, so he agreed as soon as he heard it.

There is just one thing, the gathering of a large number of ghosts will turn the aura of that place negative, which is not good for humans, and it will also attract the attention of monks and priests. Gu Zhengzhong definitely needs to make some preparations to ensure that things go smoothly.

"This cup of tea is really not cheap." Gu Zhengzhong picked up the teacup, took a sip and put it down, "How many people do you need?"
