Folklore: The baby starts the game, and the mother takes off her painted skin

Chapter 235: The Simple Folk Customs of Huangliang Town [asking for monthly tickets]

Liu Bai remembered that the first principle Lady Liu taught him was to uproot the grass.

It would be fine if you don't provoke him, but once you provoke him, you have to kill the other party, not only the other party, but also the whole family of the other party. Otherwise, if the small one is beaten, the big one will come, which is very troublesome.

Now it seems that this is indeed the case.

I should have been more ruthless and killed their entire family early on, then this wouldn't have happened and my house wouldn't have been burned down.

But the decision to kill is one thing, the key is how to kill?

If I force myself to go at them... it will be too difficult. Even if I can kill them, I might get injured.

If something goes wrong, I might be caught by the mayor and thrown into a pig cage.

In this unassisted dream, it is better to be careful in everything.

Don't be as reckless as before.

But to kill them without anyone noticing...it might be a little difficult for others, but for Liu Bai, it is not a big problem.

Evil!

Evil spirits are good at killing people. As long as you use them well, they will become your "accomplices", or rather, your good helpers.

There is a local deity in the town, and even evil spirits can’t get in... at least wandering spirits definitely can’t.

But if he wanted to bring evil spirits into the town, Liu Bai felt that he might end up doing it for nothing.

Judging from the skills and knowledge he has mastered, it is already very powerful for him to deal with this wandering soul.

Evil spirits must not be provoked.

In this case, the most reliable way is naturally to lure Liang Dazhu and his wife out of the town, and then lure the wandering spirits outside to attack them.

But in this case, the operation becomes a bit difficult.

The first problem facing Liu Bai was how to lure him out of the town?

"Are you okay? I saw you were absent-minded on the way back." Huang Sheng looked at Liu Bai with some concern, so he comforted her, "Don't think too much. It's just a fire."

"Your family doesn't have much to begin with. Even if you become rich in the future, you will have to tear down those walls and rebuild them yourself."

Pushing it yourself is the same as someone else setting it on fire... can it be the same?

Liu Bai didn't argue with Huang Sheng.

When he got home, Huang Sheng went to the closet in his room and carefully pulled out a neat and tidy book from under his clothes. It said...

"The Yellow Millet History".

This was the only book in his collection, and he wanted to use this book to test Liu Bai's literacy and writing abilities.

But he never expected that when he came out with the book, he found that Liu Bai had disappeared.

The door was open and he ran away again.

"This kid, he doesn't even care about such a good thing!"

"You deserve to be poor all your life!"

Huang was very angry, but he had no other choice but to take the book back angrily.

Liu Bai naturally went out, because just now he had thought of a way to lure Liang Dazhu and his family out.

Even if you can't get the whole family out, at least you can get one person out.

In this winter, the fields are not suitable for growing crops.

But they would put the seeds of these crops into the cellar.

Huangliang Village is located in the south and is very humid. It is impossible to dig a cellar under the house. If you dig a cellar down there, it will get moldy in no time.

So they would dig the cellar in the dry farmland.

Liu Bai already knew about this in Huangliang Town.

If they want to lure them out of the town, they can do something about it. The prerequisite is to find where the cellar of Liang Dazhu's family is.

You have to find out about this yourself, but don't rush into it.

In particular, you cannot ask someone directly, because if something goes wrong, it will be easy for people to associate it with you.

Moreover, Liu Bai also needs some time to prepare for this arrangement...

Then there is even less rush.

So during this afternoon, Liu Bai found a few familiar people to chat with, and all he asked was where his own family's land was, and then he asked indirectly where Liang Dazhu's family's land was.

The topic was even simpler. He said that he remembered that his family seemed to have had an argument with their family over land in the past.

At first some people were reluctant to tell him, but after Liu Baihua spent a dozen copper coins to buy some melon seeds and put them on his body, everyone was willing to tell him.

There is nothing to do in winter. Just talking about neighborhood quarrels and cracking melon seeds is already a beautiful thing in life.

When Huang returned home in the evening, he was scolded again.

Of course, I can't read or write at night, no matter if it's an oil lamp or a candle... Huang Sheng can't afford them because he doesn't have the spare money.

The next morning, when Huang Sheng woke up, he found that Liu Bai's shop was empty.

He went out again.

A gentleman's revenge is never too late.

Liu Bai felt that he was not a gentleman, he was a villain, and villains should take revenge regardless of the day or night.

I found out where Liang Dazhu's land is yesterday, so I have to go and check it out today to see if his cellar is built in his land.

Then Liu Bai went to the incense shop and bought a bundle of incense, some paper money, and a red rope.

Liu Bai had already gone to see the location of Madam Liu's red candle shop early in the morning.

Now it is no longer a red candle shop, but a coffin shop.

He just looked at it from a distance and didn't come closer.

As for the incense and paper money, it was because he had no blessings from his own ancestors and could only seek these external means.

The red rope is used to tie the horns of the muntjac. This thing has a strong yang energy. If you smear some blood on it and hang it on the chest, ordinary wandering souls will not dare to bump into it.

There is no danger of ignition, so when you go out, you must take self-defense measures.

After finishing all these, he passed by the riverside path on the west side of the town and took a look at his home.

The fire had long been extinguished, and only a few walls of the house remained...it became even more dilapidated, and there were black marks of burns everywhere.

This made Liu Bai think of his home in Huangliang Town, where he and Madam Liu had lived for several years.

So this revenge... must be avenged!

The north-south dirt road goes north, and after leaving the town, there are large tracts of farmland, and Liang Dazhu's land is here.

Following the instructions given by the common people yesterday afternoon, Liu Bai found the huge rock that spanned the upper and lower fields, and then several ridges above it all belonged to Liang Dazhu's family.

From a distance, you can still see a few people busy working here.

When Liu Bai came here, he saw "his own" fields. They were still there, but he didn't know who planted them. It looked like peanuts were planted this year.

Looking up again, I really saw a cellar in the ground with a few wooden boards blocking the door.

Liang Dazhu’s house cellar is really here!

It would be easy to find the place. Liu Bai looked back and saw that there were still a few people busying around. The opportunity was not suitable, and his preparations were not enough.

I can only wait until tomorrow to find another opportunity.

So Liu Bai spent the entire afternoon wandering around the town.

On the way back in the evening, he picked up another ten kilograms of rice. The two grown men had eaten as much as they wanted in the past two days... It was a waste of money!
After this is over, I still have to find a way to make money.

Nothing happened that night, and the next morning, Liu Bai went out early again.

Huang Sheng thought Liu Bai had found a job and didn't ask much. Of course, he wouldn't notice that a shovel was missing from his house.

It was freezing cold in the morning.

Liu Bai sneaked to the fields north of the town, but didn't see a single citizen.

He came to Liang Dazhu's cellar with ease, first took off the cloth bag on his back, and then took off the shovel from his waist.

After a quick gesture to determine the location, start digging.

The soil was hard, and he took great effort to open a hole. He picked up the soil and saw, "Damn, I used glutinous rice paste."

"..."

After digging for half a cup of tea, Liu Bai was sweating profusely, but fortunately he managed to pry open the wooden door of the cellar.

He didn't have time to rest and immediately went in.

The room was filled with a rotten smell, and there was a pile of sweet potato seeds in the corner.

This thing cannot be piled up, otherwise it will become useless.

Liu Bai opened the cloth bag he brought with him. It was filled with many things and it smelled foul.

Among them were clothes worn by the dead man, women’s private parts, and a wooden board that had been soaked in vaginal fluid.

When Liu Bai was working on these things yesterday, there was a guy who wanted money more than his life and said he could get the hair and nails of a dead person.

This thing is very evil, and Liu Bai is worried that he can't handle it even if he doesn't light it.

What we have now is enough.

After he took out these things, he placed them in the four corners of the cellar in order, and then took out a willow branch.

He used a willow branch to draw a line on the ground, connected all these things together, and finally threw the willow branch in the middle of the cellar.

If there are enough materials, it is best to directly connect them with willow branches and place a locust wood in the middle.

But Liu Bai doesn’t want to bring so many things and it will be conspicuous.

(The above cannot be attempted.)
After finishing all these, he was about to leave, but then he thought of something.

If sweet potato seeds can be planted, they can naturally be eaten.

He picked up a dozen from the ground, wrapped them with cloth, looked back to make sure nothing was missed.

Then he quickly crawled out of the cellar and picked up the shovel on the ground.

Left this piece of land in the deserted winter.

As soon as he entered the town, he had already cleaned the dirt on the shovel. When he passed by the door of a house, he put the cloth bag containing sweet potato seeds on the door.

If the ambush to kill Liang Dazhu and his wife failed, this thing would be the root of the trouble.

Of course you can't take it home.

It just so happened that this family had a good relationship with Aunt Zhu. The night before yesterday, when Liu Bai was saving his enemy, the woman of this family joined Aunt Zhu in scolding him.

Said he was a bastard.

Liu Bai didn't remember who praised him, but he remembered clearly who scolded him.

After giving the gift, he put the shovel into his clothes and left.

Everything along the way was peaceful and there was no trouble.

After sending the shovel back, Huang Sheng was nowhere to be seen. He must have gone to work for the town mayor Zhao Jiu.

He just bought two steamed buns along the way and went to the north side of the town to squat.

You can see the road to the west from here. If Liang Dazhu and his wife go there, they can see it clearly from here.

By the afternoon, they were nowhere to be seen.

Naturally, they wouldn't know about this matter if no one told them, so they could only wait.

Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Bai was about to leave when he suddenly heard a voice behind him, "Li li li li."

This is the sound that small towns make when calling their chickens. Calling people like this is an insult.

Liu Bai felt the voice was familiar and when he turned around, he saw two people standing behind him.

One of them is an old acquaintance...Hu Wei.

He was sitting on a stone with a proud look on his face, and the young man beside him seemed to be also a member of the Hu family.

"As expected, you are an orphan. It's surprising that you are not dead."

Another bad guy... Liu Bai has become accustomed to the Huangliang Town with its simple folk customs.

Nothing good!

And listening to what he said, was it really as he told Mr. Huang, that he was the one who knocked him unconscious on the side of the road?
He killed himself...

Liu Bai took a step back calmly, put his right hand on his waist, and looked at him vigilantly.

Hu Wei smiled and took a few steps forward, "You're wearing winter clothes? Get rich, little Liu. What's up? Did you meet some wild father who took you in?"

"Shh-"

Liu Bai took a step forward, and with his right hand he had already pulled out the short blade given to him by Qiu Jiu from his waist and swung it forward.

Go straight for the beard's neck.

If this blow lands firmly, it will definitely kill him in one blow!

A villain will take revenge at any time!
Hu Wei was indeed a man who had practiced boxing with Master Ma and was almost able to start a fire. He had a strong body and energy. Seeing that the dagger was right in front of him, he leaned back.

He fell to the ground, but also avoided Liu Bai's knife.

"scare--"

With one move, Liu Bai stabbed the knife into the ground again. Hu Wei supported himself on the ground with both hands and quickly crawled a few steps backwards, barely avoiding Liu Bai's second knife.

Liu Bai still wanted to take action, but seeing that the two of them had already arrived at the same place, Hu Wei had also stood up.

Without saying a word, he grabbed a handful of sand from the ground and threw it out.

Hu Wei and the other man hurriedly raised their hands to cover their faces.

But after they took their hands away, there was no trace of Liu Bai anywhere in sight.

"Damn you Liu bastard!"

Hu Wei cursed angrily.

The young man next to him whispered to comfort him, saying that they were the first to start fighting, but after a few words, he started to chase him.

Where might they chase him to...Hu Wei kicked him angrily, and the two turned and left.

Liu Bai didn't walk far, he just stopped at the entrance of a nearby alley. His heart was beating like a drum, but he didn't dare to breathe heavily.

He held the dagger tightly in his right hand, ready to strike Hu Wei as long as he dared to come again.

After waiting for a while and seeing Hu Wei not coming over, Liu Bai's heartbeat calmed down a little, so he turned around and left.

Kill Hu Wei!

He has to be killed, but if he wants to kill him, he has to wait until he has taken action and ignited the fire.

Moreover, if you want to get the blueprint of the rare treasure here, you have to start a fire, but that is far away. For now, you have to think about how to survive.

It was still early when they returned to Huang Sheng's house. He took advantage of the time before it got dark to test Liu Bai while cooking.

But this time he didn't take out the book. Instead, he recited some words and asked Liu Bai to write them down.

Liu Bai knew it all, which made Huang Sheng very happy.

But when he spoke to Liu Bai again afterwards, his tone became much more elegant, and he promised to get the job done for Liu Bai as soon as possible.

Another day passed in a hurry.

Liu Bai still didn't make any progress. Maybe it was because he met Hu Wei yesterday and fought with him for a while, which consumed too much of his energy.

When Liu Bai woke up the next day, it was already bright.

The sky, which had been gloomy for a long time, finally had a glimmer of sunshine.

Huang Sheng had already gone to Zhao Jiu's place early, and Liu Bai packed up and went out.

He was worried about Liang Dazhu's family, but was also worried about Hu Wei's presence, so he didn't dare to go to the north of the town this time. After some thought, he decided to go to his home first. Not long after, when he arrived at the entrance of the alley, he saw three or four people gathered at the door of his burned house, and there seemed to be crying and wailing among them.

"There's some movement!"

Liu Bai walked quickly forward and when he got closer, he could tell at a glance that the person lying on the ground was Aunt Zhu.

The one crying was her child, who looked similar to her.

Liang Dazhu was not seen. Liu Bai guessed that he was either still in the cellar or had gone to ask Master Ma to come.

Because Aunt Zhu was lying on the ground with her eyes wide open and a hideous look on her face.

Even his hands occasionally look like chicken claws, looking extremely ferocious.

This is what it looks like to have been possessed by an evil spirit. Based on Liu Bai's experience, he judged that this was just a wandering spirit...

If we really ask Mr. Ma for help, Aunt Zhu will never die.

If Master Ma was willing to work harder, she wouldn't even have to be seriously ill for several months, and at most she would only have to stay in bed for ten days or half a month.

Liu Bai was a little disappointed when he saw this, but he couldn't do anything else in front of everyone.

I can't go to the fields anymore, I can only wait here.

After listening to the words of the people nearby, Liu Bai also realized that it was Aunt Zhu who went to check the cellar early this morning, so she was the one who encountered the ghost.

Liang Dazhu didn't go, and now he has gone to Ma's farm to call Master Ma.

Liu Bai felt more and more regretful, but there was nothing he could do. He could only wait here for nearly an hour.

More and more people from nearby came to watch the show, and there were many people gathered inside and outside.

They are all farmers who have nothing to do after eating.

"Get out of the way!"

The sound of carriage wheels rolling over the ground was heard from the alley, along with Liang Dazhu's shouting.

The people watching the show also hurried to make way, and Liu Bai was almost pushed down.

When he saw Master Ma's carriage approaching, he understood why these people were so afraid, because the carriage did not slow down at all, and just rushed forward recklessly, without any fear of killing anyone.

After the carriage stopped, Ma Laosan, who was smoking a pipe and looking arrogant, came out of the carriage.

This was the second time Liu Bai saw Ma Laosan in this dream.

Last time I just took a quick glance and saw his back, this time I took a closer look.

Unlike the Master Ma in Huangliang Town who was dressed in rags and had his trouser legs rolled up, the Master Ma in front of him was dressed very luxuriously.

Even the shoes under his feet were made of golden thread.

The old pipe in his hand was inlaid with gold and silver, and his whole body exuded luxury.

After getting off the carriage, he glanced lazily at Aunt Zhu at his feet and said lightly, "Thirty taels."

"what?"

Liang Dazhu widened his eyes and exclaimed.

"You can buy on credit and write an IOU." Ma Laosan knew the character of the people before him. They were all peasants and paupers.

"It's not Master Ma, wasn't it just twenty-five taels not long ago? Why is it so..."

"You also said that it was not long ago." Ma Lao San said, smoking a cigarette, "The world is difficult nowadays, and it's not easy to do things in secret. I have a large family."

After saying this, he looked at Liang Dazhu straight in the eye and said, "Are you going to save him or not? If not, I'll give you 20 taels as a travel fee."

Liu Bai hid in the crowd and listened, and finally understood why the people in this town called Ma Laosan "Ma Bapi".

If this isn't skinning, then whose is it?
"Help, help."

Things have come to this, what else can Liang Dazhu say? He can only rescue the people first.

After hearing this, Mr. Ma did not rush to take action. Instead, he grinned and pulled out an IOU written in black and white from his sleeve.

"It doesn't matter if you can't write, just put your fingerprints on it."

Looking at the skinning Ma Lao San, Liu Bai also clicked his tongue in his heart.

Liang Dazhu had no choice but to cut his finger and put his fingerprint on it.

Mr. Ma put away the IOU, then lit the fire and walked towards Aunt Zhu who was lying on the ground.

He lit a fire and the people around him retreated one after another. Liu Bai could also feel that Ma Lao San was still a burning spirit.

He came over and squatted beside Aunt Zhu, took out his old pipe, and shook some ash on her forehead.

Then he touched the life fire on her shoulder with both hands and patted her a few times.

Finally, she rubbed her hands together, causing the ash between her brows to reignite.

Aunt Zhu's ferocious expression relaxed instantly, her hands dropped, she opened her mouth and eyes, but her eyes looked a little dazed.

"OK OK!"

Liang Dazhu cried out in delight, and the people watching the show around him all praised Master Ma for being so powerful.

Liu Bai, who was hiding in the crowd, naturally understood everything. With just these two moves by Ma Laosan, the person was saved.

But he was just saved.

If it really takes only a few moves to get rid of the evil spirit...it would be strange if Aunt Zhu doesn't get sick for half a year when she returns home.

Liu Bai thought about it and realized that this was exactly what Ma Bapi did.

It would be strange if he was really serious about exorcising evil spirits.

Liu Bai's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.

Seeing that the man had opened his eyes, Ma Lao San was ready to leave, but Aunt Zhu forced herself to speak and said, "Master Ma, someone is trying to harm me!"

"Who has nothing to do after eating to harm you?"

"In my cellar I have women's private parts, some willow branches for drawing, and I see... a piece of clothing worn by a dead person." Aunt Zhu said weakly.

When Ma Laosan heard this, he immediately lowered his head even though he was about to leave.

"Are you serious...?!"

He became interested in this matter.

If what the woman in front of me said was true, then the person behind the scenes might really be someone who knows his business.

But such people are rare in Huangliang Town.

His eyes flickered a few times, and he subconsciously glanced towards the east of the town, as if he had thought of something.

"Come on, where is your cellar? Take me to see it."

"Come on, come on, I'll take Master Ma with him." Liang Dazhu said happily when he heard that Master Ma was willing to solve the problem.

"..."

Master Ma was going to exorcise the evil spirit, so more people came to watch the show, and Liu Bai was naturally among the crowd.

As soon as he arrived at the fields in the north of the town, he had a feeling... the suspect always liked to return to the scene to see his masterpiece.

So does he.

But since the cellar was still some distance away, the common people knew better and did not dare to go forward.

What if I get possessed by this evil spirit?

Master Ma will not save those who have no destiny.

This is the truth that the people in this town have learned through their lives.

Liu Bai just watched from afar as Master Ma lit the fire and went into the cellar. Soon, sharp screams were heard from inside.

The evil spirit is still inside.

But the sound only lasted for less than a moment. For Master Ma, who was good at burning spirits, it would be no problem for him to deal with a wandering soul.

After waiting for a while, Master Ma emerged from the cellar again.

There was something in his hand. Liu Bai squinted and saw that what Mr. Ma was holding was actually a sweet potato...

really!

"Just now, Ma Lao San must have been looking at the dirty things I left behind. If he wants to find out who is behind this, he can't rely on these dirty things."

For example, the Guishui cloth. Ma Laosan could only find out who it belonged to by following the clues, but he couldn't find out who took it.

But the missing sweet potato is different.

As the saying goes: follow the vine, once you find one sweet potato, it will be easier to find the rest of the sweet potatoes.

He came to the crowd, glanced at Liang Dazhu, and said with a smile: "Let's go, don't we want to find out who did it? Just follow me."

Liang Dazhu waved his fist viciously, "Go!"

"I want to see which bitch dares to hurt me!"

After hearing this, Liu Bai in the crowd wanted to jump out and give Liang Dazhu a knife, but it was obviously not suitable in the current situation.

Mr. Ma took the lead and led many people into the town from the north and went straight to the house where Liu Bai planted sweet potatoes.

"What? It's Lao Kai?"

Liang Dazhu looked at the house, somewhat unconvinced.

The bustling crowd soon attracted the people in the room. This was a short, middle-aged man. He looked at so many people, including Mr. Ma, and felt a little confused.

"What are you doing?"

"What are you doing?" Ma Lao San weighed the watermelon in his hand and asked with a smile, "Is this sweet potato delicious?"

As soon as he saw the sweet potato, his expression changed, "You...yours?"

Seeing this, Liang Dazhu, who was extremely angry, could not help but stepped forward, grabbed the man's collar and pushed him against the door.

"You bastard, I treat you as my brother, how dare you hurt me!"

Master Ma sneered, threw the sweet potato away and went into the house.

Although the others were curious, they did not dare to go in.

Liu Bai didn't dare to do so, and just waited for a while at the outside of the crowd before Ma Laosan came out.

His face looked more and more confused. Although he found the lost sweet potato, it did not solve the doubts in his heart.

He threw out the paper carriage, jumped on it and left.

In the room could be heard the sound of two men fighting and a woman crying.

Those people who were watching the show were still thinking about stepping forward, but Liu Bai had already turned around and left.

Judging from the current situation, this is the way it should be. Aunt Zhu will have to stay in bed for a few months. Liang Dazhu... has also developed a grudge with this family. It would be good if he could sort out his own problems in a short time.

Other things... Liu Bai felt that he had to solve the livelihood problem first.

It’s just a pity!
It seems that it is still a bit difficult to kill someone without making any noise.

And then there’s that little beard that’s about to catch fire…damn thing!
Everyone is waiting for me to get out of this blessed land.

Master Ma from Huangliang Town, Liuzi, and Hu Wei who has now gone to Yunzhou City, none of them can escape.

Those who bullied me in my dream will be paid back several times over when I get out!

Liu Bai had already thought it through. When the time comes, he would pin Master Ma and Liuzi to the ground and ask them a question.

"You are the one who is called Ma Ba Pi."

"Just call you Sixth Master!"

The more Liu Bai thought about it, the angrier he became, but there was nothing he could do. He wandered around the town for a long time, and deliberately pressed Hujiaao.

After half a day, nothing was found.

Just as he was about to go back to Huang Sheng's home to rest for the afternoon, he met Huang Sheng, who was in a hurry, on the way.

"what happened?"

"What's wrong? I'm looking for you!" Huang Sheng was running out of breath. When he saw Liu Bai, he bent down, supported his legs, and gasped heavily.

"Looking for me? What are you looking for?"

Liu Bai pointed at himself and asked in confusion.

"Okay, come with me and we'll talk while we walk." Huang Sheng walked forward, took Liu Bai's winter coat and walked towards the alley next to him.

"I finally found a job for you, but it just so happens that..."

"..."

After Huang Sheng's introduction, Liu Bai finally understood.

But after he understood it, he was a little stunned, and even felt like he had achieved something by accident.

Huang Sheng did help him find a job, and it was the same job as his, which was to go to the town mayor Zhao Jiu to help people write letters, or copy books and organize business.

This job was originally done by him and another person.

But that guy had a fight with someone this morning and broke his head, so he will have to stay at home for a few months.

Coincidentally, the person who injured him was called... Liang Dazhu.

So I got myself a job by accident?

But this is something only you know, you cannot tell others.

After some thanks, they followed Huang Sheng all the way to the home of the town mayor Zhao Jiu, which was still the same spacious courtyard.

Liu Bai has been here several times and is quite familiar with the place.

He even knew about Zhao Jiu's dull son Zhao Yannian, but he experienced all this in Huangliang Town.

Rather than this blessed land of Huangliang.

Just like Zhao Yannian in front of him, he is not dull at all. His pair of rat eyes are rolling around, and he looks very clever.

"You really found someone who can read and write so quickly?" Zhao Jiu sat in the main seat, sipping tea.

When Liu Bai looked up, he even said, "Are you the orphan from the Liu family?"

Huang Sheng replied on behalf of Liu Bai: "That's right. He has been coming to my house whenever he has time these years. I taught him how to read and write. Fortunately, he has a good talent and has almost mastered it now."

Huang Sheng knew that Liu Bai's literacy was not something he could explain clearly, so he spoke up to cover it up for him.

Liu Bai did not refuse the kindness and nodded quickly.

"I didn't expect you have the talent to be a private school teacher. Why don't you open a private school in the town?"

Zhao Jiu put down the teacup, leaned forward slightly and looked at Huang Sheng and said.

"Don't dare."

Huang Sheng seemed to be very afraid of Zhao Jiu.

Zhao Jiu chuckled, then looked at the boy in front of him, "You said you can read, I won't make it difficult for you. There is a pen and paper on the table, as well as a letter. Copy it down and read it in front of me. If there is no problem, you will pass the test."

Liu Bai nodded, went to the desk, picked up the pen, dipped it in ink and started copying.

This was just an ordinary family letter, talking about some trivial matters. Liu Bai copied it down and read it again in front of Zhao Jiu.

After listening to this, Zhao Jiu nodded and read the letter copied by Liu Bai.

"The handwriting is a bit ugly, but it is indeed legible."

After saying that, he looked Liu Bai up and down carefully, as if he was considering something.

"Liu family kid, right? Come with me."

Zhao Jiu said this and turned to go to the backyard.

Mr. Huang said, "Hmm?"

This situation...something seems a little wrong?
