Chapter 4 The lord, the counsellor is injustice

Chen Huanxian has a classmate whose family has some connections with the county government. This classmate has always looked down on him. On the one hand, he despises Chen Huanxian for coming from a merchant family and having a humble status. He feels that the children of merchant families cannot learn the abacus that is full of the smell of copper.

Coming to the academy to study has really defiled this sacred place.

Secondly, because of Chen Huanxian's fair and beautiful face, this classmate has a square black face with acne scars, which is very ugly and vulgar. When they stand together for a moment, one looks like a swan.

Like a toad.

Chen Huanxian was told by his father not to cause trouble, so he always tolerated this classmate.

But one day, the academy and Jizhou Wennan Academy jointly held an elegant gathering to meet friends through poetry. The gathering invited local scholars, common people and students from poor families to study Confucianism. Chen Huanxian was one of the disciples from poor families to study Confucianism.

As a representative of this class, he was specially invited to come on stage to write a manuscript. This was an incredible honor. He had been preparing for a long time just to be a blockbuster.

This incident aroused the jealousy of many people, and the powerful classmate was instigated by other evil people to deliberately cause trouble for Chen Huanxian, causing him to lose face at the gathering. As a result, just as this group of people expected, Chen Huanxian

Really a loss of face.

Chen Huanxian has always been a cold, arrogant and talented person, and he usually has very high demands on himself. Now that he has lost a large part of his family, he really can't swallow it. He doesn't want to tell his father about it, so he thinks about going to the place of filth privately.

I found a group of local gangsters, paid some money, and asked them to attack the classmate secretly.

Those kind of gangsters are not locals, but refugees from other counties who have committed petty thefts. They only care about the money and are not afraid of offending anyone. After receiving the money, they will find a dark alley and give Chen Huanxian's classmates a hard lesson.

.

Classmate Chen Huanxian was seriously injured as a result. His family members were furious when they learned about the incident and immediately contacted the county government. The county magistrate of the county government was the cousin of classmate Chen Huanxian's father. The two of them had a good relationship on weekdays. When they learned of the incident

, they immediately sent officers and soldiers to investigate the matter thoroughly.

This classmate's family belongs to a local high-ranking noble family. The poems and books passed down for generations have a certain status and background, and they are more or less related to the local appearance and secrets, so this investigation was carried out directly.

Arrive at Chen's house.

Chen Huanxian didn't know at the time that the Chen family was about to be in disaster because of his recklessness, but he was a proud waiter and always thought of himself as a scholar. After all, he had done something dishonorable to his classmates, so he sat at home and suffered.

I didn't go to the academy to practice calligraphy. I hid at home in panic for a few days.

Unexpectedly, what happened a few days later was that the house was raided. A group of vicious officers and soldiers rushed into the house to arrest people. They said that Chen's house was harboring a Korean tenant as a fugitive. There was a witness to this matter, and a search was carried out.

, before Chen Huanxian's family had time to react, they actually found a so-called "Korean tenant" in their home.

This is clearly a frame-up!

But the Chen family was unable to resist, and could only watch the Chen family being confiscated by the government. After using all their remaining financial resources and connections to redeem their lives, they were forced to move south to Yuanxiang County, while Chen Huanxian

He was despised and expelled from the academy.

Chen's father suffered a heavy blow due to this incident and became seriously ill, and eventually died of grief. Jia's mother was a young lady from a wealthy family before she got married. After Chen's father passed away, she suffered all the hardships of life and washed her face with tears every day.

Unable to think about it for a while, he hanged himself not long after. Since the Tan family couldn't bear the hard life, let alone the burden of Chen Huanxian and the young Mu'er, he stole the remaining silk belongings alone and ran away overnight.

.

At the end of the matter, Chen Huanxian lost his father and mother due to impulsiveness and recklessness. He lost his family and was despised by the academy. From then on, he was completely disabled. He was so sad and angry that he could not control himself. He resented the world and hated everything every day.

He began to stop working on crops and just lay in bed day and night waiting to die.

Chen Mu lost his father at a young age and was abandoned by his biological mother. Chen Huanxian vented his resentment on him because the Tan family stole the remaining money. However, he did not give up on life because of this, but became even more angry.

Cheer up, Chen Huanxian scolded him, but he didn't blame him. Chen Huanxian ignored him, so he went out to find food and came back to feed Chen Huanxian.

Chen Mu was only five and a half years old. He couldn't lift his shoulders and couldn't carry them. How could he find anything to do? The only thing he could do was rely on charity from others to make ends meet.

Over time, all the folks in this village knew that Chen Mu, a little beggar, was raising a big lazy man named Chen Huanxian.

Of course, not all of this news was told by Mu'er to Chen Baiqi. Some of it was estimated by Chen Baiqi himself, and some was discussed by Chen Baiqi after hearing it with his own ears. Mu'er only briefly told Chen Baiqi about the incident at home.

However, even these simple and brief things made Chen Baiqi feel mixed emotions in his heart.

Come to think of it, Chen Huanxian is not a treacherous person. On the contrary, Chen Huanxian's classmate's family is vicious and persecutive without knowing what is right and wrong. However, Chen Huanxian is young and aloof, so this huge blow has shaken his entire being.

He lost his backbone.

To be honest, the reason why he ended up in such a muddy state was because of the death of Chen's father and Jia's mother, which made him feel guilty and blamed himself for being unable to take revenge.

But if we say that Chen Huanxian gave up on himself and spent his days lying on the bed decadently, how did his right leg get broken?

Regarding this matter, Mu'er pursed her lips and her big eyes flickered, as if she was hiding something unspeakable. She was still unwilling to say it. Chen Baiqi couldn't force him, so he had no choice but to let him go and talk about it later.

However, if she continues to lie down without giving birth like this, winter is coming, everything will wither and become cold, and the two brothers, one older and one younger, will probably starve to death in this small hut.

Although the country of Qi is located in the south, it is still covered with snow for thousands of miles during the winter. There is no food and drink in this winter, and there are no cotton-padded clothes and quilts to survive the winter. I am afraid that I will not survive this winter.

Therefore, she must recuperate her body as soon as possible before she can find another job.

"Mu'er, my brother can't get out of bed for the time being, but he needs some medicine for treatment. Can you go to the mountains to find some for me tomorrow?" Chen Baiqi looked confused.

"Medicine?" Mu'er blinked his big eyes, nodded and shook his head, and said pitifully: "But brother, Mu'er doesn't recognize medicine."

"It's okay. Brother will tell you where this medicine will probably grow and what it looks like. Just go look for it. If you find something similar, dig it out. It doesn't matter if you find something wrong. If you can find it, you are lucky. If you can't find it, just look for it again.

That's right." Chen Baiqi said warmly.

Chen Baiqi does not understand advanced pharmacology, and now she is not able to obtain systematic assistance to refine the elixir due to her insufficient level, because she estimates that her temporary leg injury will require some ordinary herbs, such as Panax notoginseng, Astragalus, etc. to heal her body.

, if she could be lucky enough to find a few of them in the mountains, it would help her get better quickly.

Chen Baiqi expected that it would not be a big problem. Firstly, she recognized these herbs, and secondly, during the Warring States Period, gold in the mountains was not known to be mined, so there should be enough wild medicinal herbs and vegetation.

Afraid that Mu'er would not be safe going up the mountain alone, Chen Baiqi told him that it would be best to ask a familiar adult to go up the mountain with him. When entering the mountain, do not enter the dense forest and just wander around the edge of the mountain forest. It is best to go to the familiar mountain. She only thinks of him.

Come back safely. If you can, pick these medicinal herbs, or if you can't, just pick them.

When Mu'er saw his brother explaining his affairs so solemnly, with care and concern in his words, his heart felt warm. His little face was red and dried by the cold wind, and he looked up with admiration.

Looking at Chen Baiqi, he didn't expect that his brother could even know herbal medicine, which was really impressive.

He promised Chen Baiqi that he would pay attention to safety and that he would go up the mountain with Uncle Mo. Uncle Mo often went up the mountain to collect herbs. Uncle Mo could identify herbs. When the time came, he would let Uncle Mo take a look to avoid digging the wrong ones and causing delays.

Brother heals the disease.

I think Uncle Mo has a good relationship with Mu'er, as you can tell from Mu'er's confident tone.

In this way, Chen Baiqi was more or less relieved about Mu'er going to the mountain to collect medicine.

If she hadn't been lying in bed and struggling to move, she really wouldn't want to let such a child run around for her.

The next day, after Chen Baiqi and Mu'er continued yesterday's ingredients and drank a large bowl of "stinky root grass" soup, Chen Mu ran to Aunt Wu, borrowed a wooden pick in a cute way, and went to the East Village to find that Mo.

The uncle went up the mountain to collect herbs together.

Chen Baiqi checked the system while there was no one in the small shabby room.

The system "package" is now very empty. Compared with the previous full warehouse, it is empty except for a high-bay silicon glass cup and a medicine box.

It's a pity that the medicines in this medicine box are sedatives, which she can't use at the moment.

On the contrary, the water in this glass can be drunk endlessly.

Previously, she was afraid of arousing Mu'er's suspicion, so she didn't take it out to drink even though she was very thirsty. Now that Mu'er went to the mountain to collect medicine and might not be able to come back for a while, she can drink it with confidence.

She had previously asked Mu'er why there was no water at home.

Mu'er said that the water for consumption in this family must be fetched from the Taoxi River two or three kilometers away. Other people's families have large water tanks for filling water, and they also have laborers who can fetch and store water every day, but their family has neither.

There was no labor force to carry buckets of water, and of course there were no water tanks. So if she wanted to drink water, she had to go to the stream to get it.

However, Mu'er was smart and instead of chewing the stinkroot, he prepared a large pot of soup, which could temporarily satisfy his hunger and quench his thirst.

In addition, among the eight large and small clay jars placed in the corner, only the big pot was still intact. The others were either broken or cracked. They only contained some pickle leaves, and the rest were empty.

.

Chen Baiqi checked the "skills" of the system, and only "Sound Confusion" was left.

Speaking of which, she chose to be resurrected as "Chen Jiao Niang" before, and the "package" at least included a bottle of "life potion" and "stamina potion", but now there is really nothing.

Chen Baiqi brought up the system panel again.

Occupation: Witch doctor

Name: Chen Huanxian (Qi)

Level:0

Race: Human (Qilin bloodline opens 7%)

Attributes: vitality 68; force 45; intelligence 65; physical strength 69;

The professional talent she chose this time was Witch Doctor, which opened up the Kirin bloodline by 7%. And precisely because of the Kirin bloodline, her vitality was stronger than that of ordinary people. Even though she is now seriously ill, she still has the physique of an ordinary person.

, just wait until later to slowly resume exercise.

At this time, there was a "ding" in her head, and a reminder came from the system: Qingjia Village has always had simple folk customs, and despised lazy people who did not work in production. Aunt Wu took advantage of Chen Mu to go up the mountain, and came to knock on the door with resentment and accusations to receive/

reject?
