I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 298 Homecoming
After finding the remains of his parents, Song Mu finally fulfilled a wish, and took the remains to the south without stopping.

Returning home this time, Song Mu will escort the remains of his parents back to his hometown, and arrange some things about the ancestral hall. After all these things are done, Song Mu will embark on a new journey with Tao Fengming.

The river boat is swaying, and it is still the end of the wet season, and there is a good wind direction, so the speed of the boat is so fast, even if it is sailing against the current, it can travel hundreds of miles in a day.

Apart from completing the study tasks assigned by Tao Fengming every day, Song Mu just stayed in the cabin and pondered over the books.

After coming out of that small village, Song Mu has always been deeply impressed by Mr. Tu's family.

Especially an old hunter, whose awe and reluctance to the mountains and forests touched Song Mu's heart.

Recalling the past, the Taigong Fan in the fishing village in the mountains, and the events in Shaozhou Prefecture, Song Mu felt even more emotional at this moment.

The world respects the literati extremely. The literati represent the trend of the times and the expectations of all people. Then, all the famous things seem to be linked with the literati.

Everyone respects literature, which is a good thing, but Song Mu feels somewhat indignant in his chest.

In fact, in this world, what is worth remembering is not only the hard work and achievements of scholars.

The people need heroes and legends to look up to and rely on, but at the same time they also need some encouragement in real life. Everyone around everyone is actually worthy of admiration.

This time, Song Mu wants to write some articles for the common people in this world. In the past, there were three officials and three different, charcoal sellers, snake catchers, and wheat watchers. Today, there are also scholars from fishing villages and hunters from mountain villages.

They were born in Weimo, lived in Weimo, and lived strong in Wen Dynasty.

Only this time, there is no need to imitate the lament of the rise and fall of the predecessors, this time Song Mu is willing to boost everyone's spirits, even though the times are bitter, but still continue to work hard.

This will be a book in which every common man sees his own reflection when he turns the pages of the book.

The idea slowly took shape in Song Mu's mind, and everything became more and more unstoppable at this moment. Song Mu had already thought about the first story, and immediately wrote down the first paragraph.

"A certain fishing village is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the river on one side. As the saying goes, the green hills and the vast ocean form a piece, and the mud and the rice paddies interact with each other every step of the way..."

Song Mu's thoughts are clear at this moment, and his writing is like a god's help. A complete story has come to life on paper.

Only this time, there is no talented scholar who turned the tide, only a dying old man guarding the wild and deserted village.

At this moment, Song Mu was utterly fascinated, and he finally came to his senses when Tao Fengming retreated into the room when the sky was dark.

In front of Song Mu, a thousand-character article had already appeared.

Seeing Song Mu come back to his senses, Tao Fengming glanced at the table again and said softly.

"I have asked the boatman, and tomorrow morning, we will be able to reach Shiyang County."

Song Mu got up quickly, and at the moment directed Tao Fengming to sit down, and also nodded, while Tao Fengming had already looked at the article on Song Mu's desk.

Although he had known for a long time that Song Mu had written a folk book, and his attainments were quite high, but after he went to the provincial capital to study, he never did that kind of thing again.

Song Mu also briefly explained to Tao Fengming, but Tao Fengming, who had heard such intentions, nodded in approval and spoke.

"The people's book you wrote is not to entertain the people, but to educate the people. It is very good."

"However, I remember that the original idea of ​​"Hundred Demons" you wrote was very good, but in the end, the folk adaptation seems to have changed a bit."

Tao Fengming's words made Song Mu grin involuntarily, this is indeed true.

When I wrote "Hundred Demons", it was actually a bit too ideal. Some stories were too bloody in literal descriptions, and they were changed a lot.

Fortunately, most of the stories are still original, and the ones that are well adapted are only those stories that the common people are really excited about.

"However, your story above is already regular, and there shouldn't be any major changes."

Tao Fengming added a sentence at this time, but Song Mu had already put down Song Mu's article. Song Mu wanted to say a few more words. Seeing Tao Fengming's expression, he sat upright at the moment.

"There are still two years left in the exam. You are weak, do you want to participate?"

Hearing what Tao Fengming said, Song Mu also had a pensive expression on his face at the moment, and nodded immediately.

But at this moment, Song Mu remembered what Liu Jue had said to him before, and said to Tao Fengming.

"Everything is decided by the master, but now, we should finally be able to travel around."

Tao Fengming's expression was calm, he nodded slightly at this moment, but shook his head slightly.

"It's natural to travel with me this time, but whether you will try it or not is entirely up to you."

Saying this, Tao Fengming seemed to adjust his thoughts and looked at Song Mu.

"Nowadays, the eyes of the world are more focused on you. There are some things that you must not make rash decisions."

Song Mu nodded when he heard the words, his eyes flickered a little, and finally he just said calmly.

"Master, Song Mu knows the pros and cons of it, and as long as it happens, he will stick to it."

Tao Fengming nodded acquiescingly, and the two were relatively silent.

In the early morning of the second day, there was still a faint mist on the surface of the river. At this moment, the owner of the ship was already greeting the crew. The big ship was about to arrive at the wharf in Shiyang County.

Song Mu and Tao Fengming had already walked out of the cabin, and Song Mu was standing at the bow of the boat with the box of remains in his arms, looking into the distance.

The city wall of Shiyang County has been exposed under the sunlight, and the whole city seems to have just woken up.

Following the boatman's long chant, the river boat slowly approached the shore, and after a shock, the sampan had already landed on the pier.

Song Mu and Tao Fengming got off the boat, and beside them were boatmen and dock workers who were carrying the cargo.

Shiyang County in the early morning was somewhat cold, and Song Mu and his wife walked slowly towards the city.

This is the number of times Song Mu has seen the city wall of Shiyang County again, but every time at this time, some thoughts in Song Mu's heart can always be aroused.

This past experience is vivid, but now it is different.

The soldiers at the city gate were still yawning twice. Seeing Song Mu and two scholars coming forward, they immediately cheered up and checked, and after confirming that they were correct, they were released into the city.

The soldier who was still a little tired just now frowned suddenly, looked at the two figures who had gone far in the city cave, scratched his head and said to the other soldier next to him.

"The two gentlemen who just passed by looked familiar. The young gentleman holding a box seems to be..."

Suddenly, the soldier's eyes widened, and he said in surprise.

"The young master, seems to be Song Musong Jieyuan?"

The soldier next to him woke up suddenly when he heard this, and the expression on his face was a bit inconceivable at the moment. He was about to refute, but he saw the soldier just now shook his fist excitedly at this moment.

"It's definitely true. When I sent the students to the examination institute last year, I was on duty next to the county magistrate, and I really saw it."

Saying so, the soldier was already very excited, and at this moment he hurriedly greeted the head of the city.

"Quickly report to your lord, Song Mu and Song Jieyuan from Shiyang County are back!"
