Everyone laughed, and Ye Xiaoxi couldn't help laughing, but she never saw the lonely look in Li Luo's eyes next to her.??

Huang Shun glanced at the middle-aged man and said cautiously: "Master, how do you calculate this year? Is it still the same as in previous years, medicinal materials, clothing, food and wine, water and salt? I estimate that there are still tens of thousands of taels of silver left.

Distribute it to the people around you?"

Ye Shiyao was about to speak when Shi Zhao suddenly coughed. Ye Shiyao woke up, glanced at Li Luo, and said in unison: "We will talk about this later. There is one more thing. Everyone, this is Mr. Li, we invited him from down the mountain.

Sir, teach literacy to the children in the village."

As soon as he finished speaking, the few people who had gone down the mountain earlier were doing better. Several people on the left started whispering to each other. Li Luo could clearly hear that they were either suspecting that Li Luo had evil intentions, or they were talking about whether Li Luo could teach.

Ye Shiyao stood up and saluted Li Luo from afar: "Master Li, since you have joined our village, you are considered one of your own. People in the world often say that we are outside the law. It is up to you how you think of us.

But the dirty talk is ahead. If you, Master, devote yourself to teaching the young children in my village to read and read, I will certainly not treat you badly. But if you have ulterior motives, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Li Luo returned the bow and smiled calmly, showing no sign of anger.

Ye Shiyao paused for a moment, then pointed at everyone in the seat and said one by one: "These young masters Li have already met before. These are the second master of our village, Han Qinghai, the third master Huang Shun, the fourth master Wen Zui, and the fifth master Zhao Daniu."

.”

After he finished speaking, Huang Shun bowed his hand to Li Luo, which seemed to be a sign of intimacy. Zhao Daniu smiled and raised his hand, not paying much attention. Wen Zui just nodded lightly and called Han Qinghai the middle-aged man.

The man remained motionless and seemed unwilling to even look at Li Luo.

Li Luo smiled, cupped his fists and saluted, the expression on his face remained unchanged. However, although Han Qinghai didn't seem to take Li Luo to heart, his inner strength was vaguely around Li Luo. In terms of martial arts, I'm afraid it was

Only under Shi Zhao and Ye Shiyao, they are far better than the other leaders in the village.

Ye Shiyao continued: "You have already met these two, young hero Shi Zhaoshi and my sister Ye Xiaoxi."

Shi Zhao turned to look at Li Luo and said with a rough smile: "Master Li, the boys in the village still need you to work harder."

Li Luo smiled slightly and nodded. Ye Xiaoxi beside him said happily: "Master Li, from now on you will be the gentleman in the village. If you have anything to tell Xiaoxi, I can share some of the burden with you."

Li Luo thanked him, his face was calm, he was neither frightened nor happy, he was content with the situation but did not want to get too close to everyone. Instead, he showed a bit of bookishness, which relieved everyone's doubts.

Ye Shiyao turned to the people on the left and said harmoniously: "These are the elders in my village. The old village master guarded this place when he was here. They are highly virtuous and respected. You should remember this, sir."

Li Luo raised his eyes and looked up. The old man with gray temples who spoke first was called Uncle Ye, but Ye Shiyao did not specify his name.

Following this, the old man with a solemn expression and piercing eyes was named Wen Xingliang. Most people in the village called him Wen Bo.

The old man next to him has a kind face, always has a smile on his lips, and has a goatee. He has a bit of a naughty look, so he is called Ye Zhushan.

The last old man had a dark complexion with vertical wrinkles on his face. He seemed to be several years older than the others. His face was full of hard work, but his eyes were open and closed, but there was something special about him. Li Luo secretly guessed that he was probably from the village.

The think tank is called Han Gong.

Li Luo was not arrogant, and he greeted everyone with greetings. The old man in the seat saw that although Li Luo didn't speak much and looked lonely, he still knew how to be polite. Then he lost some of his hostility and his expression softened slightly, so they all raised their hands and returned the salute.

Han Gong asked hoarsely: "What do you call Mr. Li? Where is your family name?"

Li Luo breathed out lightly and said: "My surname is Li, with the double character Xuanlou. I currently live in Lianyun Mansion, Shahu Prefecture. I was born in Daganzhuo City in my early years. When I was more than ten years old, I moved to Shahu Prefecture with my uncle from the clan. Now I have returned to Zhuocheng.

Take the exam and gain fame."

"Fame?" Wen Zui laughed sarcastically, "How can a poor scholar like you get Dagan's fame now? You don't have ten thousand taels of silver at home, so I think you'd better give up this idea. You have no money left, but only

A few broken books, huh, even if I get to Zhuocheng, I'm afraid I'll be sleeping on the streets in a few days."

Li Luo smiled calmly and replied: "A scholar should rely on books to make a living. Even if he does not get fame, he always has to try to find out."

Wen Zuo sneered and stopped answering. The people in the room, except for Ye Shiyao, all showed contempt on their faces. They didn't expect Li Luo to be so pedantic that he still had such thoughts.

Han Gong opened his eyes and said slowly: "What a coincidence. The young master lives in Lianyun Mansion in Shahu, and I am also from Shahu Prefecture. The hometown is adjacent to Lianyun Mansion. What's even more coincidental is that our village is called Lianyun Village.

, it seems that the young master is destined to come here."

Li Luo smiled softly, seemingly not seeing the surprise flashing in Huang Shun and Wen Zhui's eyes, and looked at Han Gong with a smile. Ye Shiyao and the others looked at Li Luo playfully. Everyone in the room except Ye Xiaoxi and Zhao Daniu didn't know why.

, the rest of the people were slightly excited.

Sure enough, after Han Gong finished speaking, he asked about the customs of Shahu and Lianyun Mansion, and Li Luo answered fluently.

Han Gong's words were false and true, but Li Luo exposed them all. Instead, he talked about some strange customs that Han Gong and everyone in the room had never heard of, which opened their eyes to everyone. They nodded repeatedly and were familiar with Li Luo's background.

I believed it a little more.

In the end, even Han Gong had nothing to ask, and then asked Li Luo where he lived. Li Luo answered calmly and randomly found a village he knew near Shuangfeng Camp to tell everyone. He was not afraid that someone from the village would come.

Exploration.

Unlike the Mu Tianlang Army, which has the ability to send messages, the village will take months at least to go back and forth. By then, I'm afraid the village will be in a completely different situation.

Han Gong changed the subject and asked about the few books Li Luo had brought with him. Before going up the mountain, Li Luo's luggage had been rifled through by bandits several times. Fortunately, Li Luo had already hidden the medical book close to his body and was not found by the bandits.

, only a few books of Shan Ye Yi Zhi were left outside.

Most of the bandits could not read a few words and could not understand what was written in the book, so they brought them up together and handed them over to a few literate people in the village.

Han Gong took out one of the books, flipped through a few pages, and said calmly: "These books don't seem to be suitable for taking exams. How could Mr. Li carry these books with him?"

Li Luo looked at the book in Han Gong's hand, and said calmly: "The writer is to record things, to understand the truth, and to preach, that's all. The books I have studied are not only to understand the truth and preach the truth, so naturally the book of recording things is indispensable. Mr. Han has it in his hand."
