Chapter 37: Chapter 36:

For Qu Qing and the others, things happened very suddenly.

While they were planting rice, a few ferocious soldiers suddenly came and

captured Jiang Orion.

Qu Qing chased after him and asked, only to find out that the fact that Jiang

Orion was a deserter was reported by people in the village, so the government

would come to get people.

Qu Qing watched a lot of lively people in the village standing on the edge of

the field. When he thought that maybe the person who reported the report might

be watching here, he felt that he deserved it.

Qu Qing guessed that the culprit was the person who wanted to cheat before,

but was taught a lesson by his design, but now he has no time to investigate

this matter.

Because of this sudden accident, the work they had originally had to put down.

Qu Qing calmly said to the crying heart-piercing Jiang Zhu: "We are going home

now to prepare to save your father. Are you going to continue crying here, or

obediently go back with us and find a way?"

Just like that, Jiang Zhu stopped crying.

Hua Zizhou dragged the cat uneasy and followed Qu Qing back home.

After returning home, Qu Qing and Hua Zizhou tried to discuss, and in the end,

they both decided unanimously that people must be saved.

But whether it is more than a day in the town, or when they go to the yamen to

save people, they all need money.

As soon as Qu Qing gritted his teeth, he took out the only two hundred copper

plates he had left and put them on his body, and planned to set off. Qu Qing

originally only planned to go alone, but Hua Zizhou had to follow whatever he

said, so he had to bring all the people.

After walking hard for a long time, the big two and the young met an old man

who was pulling an ox cart, so they were lucky enough to make a car. When they

got off the car, there was still half a day's journey to get there, so they

had to find a family to stay in the cattle. shed.

Qu Qing actually had blisters on the soles of his feet, but seeing that the

two little ones didn't say anything, he had to grit his teeth and insist.

Thanks to the people who let them stay there, at noon the next day, they

arrived in the town, went around and asked a lot of people, and finally found

the location of the yamen in the town.

The gatekeepers saw that Qu Qing had a bit of tolerance. Although their hair

was very weird, they didn't drive them away. After hearing the intention, the

yamen's younger brother said: "Oh, you came a step late, the people just let

go, The mayor sent a message. Recently, the imperial court has issued a

document. Years of war have cost the people and money. Therefore, in the past,

whether it was a crime or a deserter, the crime was mitigated. As long as it

was not a capital crime, it was almost released home to farm, and so did your

friend. Coincidentally, it was released within a day of coming in."

For a while, Qu Qing was dumbfounded, and he didn't know whether he was lucky

or unfortunate, thinking that they passed by Jiang Orion not long ago.

After relaxing, Qu Qing took the crowd to a place where they sold food, and

each person ate a bowl of noodles. After solving his empty stomach, Hua Zizhou

asked Qu Qing if he wanted to go back now.

Qu Qing shook his head and said, "Since we're here, let's go for a walk, it's

a rare visit."

Hua Zizhou asked him where he wanted to go, and Qu Qing answered the

bookstore.

He knew that he was about to become a teacher, and the problem now was

choosing teaching materials.

After making inquiries, they found the only bookstore in the town at noon.

I planned to take everyone in to have a look, but when they arrived at the

door, Qu Qing went in, but Hua Zizhou and the two were stopped by the second

shopkeeper.

"Brother can't go in."

Dian Xiaoer's words and demeanor clearly showed his discrimination, Qu Qing

frowned slightly, and then said to Hua Zizhou: "You take the children here and

wait here, I'll be out in a while."

Qu Qing went in and read it for a while, and found that there were not many

books in it, but he knew all the characters in it.

After asking the price one by one, I also had an idea in my mind. The shop

assistant seemed to recognize him, especially after he heard the name of the

book that Qu Qing read, the second one was surprised and asked cautiously,

"Dare to ask, Have you read books?"

"I have read it."

The shop assistant looked at his clothes and guessed that he was not a wealthy

person, so he asked again: "I wonder if this gentleman can write, but you are

dissatisfied with you and say that our bookstore is short of manpower to copy

books. If you have the intention, don't take precaution Come try?"

Qu Jiqing was a little moved and asked if he could take it home.

Xiao Er said: "Of course you can, but you have to pay a deposit."

Qu Qing pondered for a while, and suddenly remembered that if he bought

textbooks in bulk, he would need to spend a lot of money, and the books here

still need to be copied manually, so why didn't he buy a textbook by himself,

and then copy it and send it to the students.

He inquired about the price of white paper again, and found that it was still

very expensive, and ordinary people could not afford it at all. At present,

these are not suitable for teaching materials.

After thinking about it, he finally bought the cheapest brush and a piece of

graphite.

After going out, a few people strolled around again, but they couldn't afford

to buy anything. Qu Qing got to know the people here and was ready to go back.

When he turned around, he found that Hua Zizhou was missing. After searching,

he found that he was walking towards the opposite side in the middle of the

road. Then Qu Qing saw a carriage galloping not far from the road, and he was

about to collide.

Hua Zizhou's pupils shrunk suddenly, blood all over his body, and the harsh

sound of the brakes ran through his mind, and his consciousness returned to

the cage in an instant, and he immediately ran over and pulled Hua Zizhou to

the side of the road.

The carriage passed by, causing many curses.

Hua Zizhou saw that Qu Qing was a little strange, so he reached out and pulled

his hand: "What's the matter with you?"

Qu Qing recovered from the trance and stared at Hua Zizhou for a while before

speaking.

"I'm fine, let's go."
