Chapter 214 Angry Valley God

Huo Guang has already completed the task, which is a battle of wits. Although Huo Guang won this ridiculous game, although Huo Guang won, he felt that there was nothing to be happy about. It was like an adult winning a child. It should be a matter of course, but losing It's embarrassing, and there's nothing to brag about if you win.

Emperor Wu was very happy. For him, the IQ of the envoy was not important. The important thing was that his own people won, and that was enough.

But Huo Guang rejected all the rewards from Emperor Wu, he just wanted to go back early, saying that Rong An was still waiting for him, so he said goodbye to Emperor Wu. Go, Jin Judong walked inward, the two passed by, Jin Judong saw Huo Guang's eyes froze, stopped, and was about to say something.

His lips parted slightly, and the words he wanted to say had already reached his mouth, but they were stuck in his throat and had to be swallowed back. The reason was that Huo Guang didn't talk to him at all. Not only did he not speak, it was as if he was facing the air. Usually, they didn't even look at Jin Judong.

Jin Judong's hot face was almost stuck to his cold butt, so he quickly withdrew his expression, coughed lightly, and pretended that he didn't take the initiative to speak just now, and walked towards the inner hall with awkward steps.

Wang Yi was standing outside the hall. He had a panoramic view of the scene just now, and laughed in his heart. Although he was not qualified to watch the match of wits, the anecdote about the county horse still had clever problems, which had long been rumored in the palace. It's open, even the maids and eunuchs in the harem know, there is no need for Wang Yi to inquire about it, no matter who he sees, he will listen to it again, although the content is not lacking in exaggeration, but every version is about how Junma wisely answered Jin Judong's three Another question, how to come up with a clever and humorous topic, made Jin Judong embarrassed.

Seeing Huo Guang coming out, Wang Yi hurriedly greeted him with a smile, "The villain saw it just now, it was really enjoyable, we should ignore him and tell him to think that he is doing some kind of wits match, or something, and he will still lose to our county horse in the end. "Wang Yi talked a lot again, but still felt that it was not enough, and continued, "But the county horse, why don't we want the things that His Majesty rewarded, what a pity."

Wang Yi has always felt that he was not reconciled. Junma obviously could get a lot of rewards. Although he won Jin Judong, it went smoothly, but at least it took a lot of brainpower. Why don't you just go home without anything? Woolen cloth.

Huo Guang didn't care about it at all, he just said quietly, "Why go back earlier, there are still many things to do."

They didn't choose a sunny morning or an auspicious day. After Huo Guang said goodbye to Emperor Wu, he didn't want to stay in Chang'an for a day and wanted to go home. He really couldn't let go of shopping malls, supermarkets, schools, and of course his family Rong An, originally said he would go back after teaching movable type printing, but he was delayed by Jin Judong for a few days, and in the end he fought some wits, that's why Huo Guang hated Jin Judong in his heart.

The autumn afternoon is very short, and it has not been long before dusk, and the endless farms have already carried ripe fruits, waiting for the farmers to harvest.

When he arrived at the path beside the field, Huo Guang dismounted and stood beside the road, admiring the autumn harvest in front of him. He sighed silently in his heart, two completely different worlds, different houses, different faces, and different lives, but these fields The dealers here are indeed the same. After thousands of years of evolution, they still maintain their original appearance.

I still remember that when I was a child, I went to my grandma’s house, and there was such an endless crop field. At that time, I just felt that being able to run freely by the field was the happiest thing.

But now I don't know where my relatives are, whether I am still missing myself, thinking of this, Huo Guangyou's eyes are full of mist.

A sudden loud sound disturbed Huo Guang's thoughts.

"He is cursed and unlucky. He must be drowned."

"You guys are talking nonsense. My baby can't be an unlucky person. He must have had a bad stomach to be like this." A woman hugged a six or seven-year-old boy tightly, probably because of malnutrition. The body is very thin, and there is almost no flesh on the face, but what is not commensurate with his thin body is that he has a protruding belly.

Because the body is too thin, the stomach is particularly obvious. The little boy's clothes are thin and don't fit very well. The protrusion of the stomach is completely exposed, and others can see it at a glance.

Several people began to come to help, trying to snatch the child from the mother's arms. A leading middle-aged man seemed to persuade him kindly:
"Damn Gouwa, it's useless for you to do this. The patriarch said that your Gouwa offended the God of Ceres, and that's why he was punished. We must drown Gouwa on the edge of the field to be forgiven by God of Ceres. "

The woman hugged the child tightly, not letting anyone approach her, and kept crying, "Impossible, my dog ​​is so timid, and usually dare not even step on an insect to death, how could he have the guts to offend Gushen." She shed tears as she spoke, but she didn't mean to bow to the person who robbed the child at all. She almost crazily attacked everyone who wanted to get close to robbing the child.

At first glance, those people were all villagers. This action must not have been their original intention. It was probably instigated by the so-called patriarch, so they didn't use too much force. Otherwise, how could so many people fail to snatch a child from a woman? Well, Huo Guang set his eyes on the child's stomach again.

Huo Guang would not believe that he got pregnant because he offended Gushen, because all the knowledge he had learned told him that there could only be one reason for this state. to know.

Maybe it was because of the impatient waiting, three more people came not far away, the leader was an old man who looked over 60 years old, his age could be guessed by the wrinkles on his face, but his speaking momentum was not inferior to that of Mr. Those young people who robbed the children just now.

"Mr. Zhang, don't make unnecessary struggles. Today Gouwa will die, and if he doesn't die, he will die. The harvest is about to come. Do you want the whole village to starve because of Gouwa?"

"But Gouwa is not wrong. He will never offend the God of Ceres. He is still so young and so honest." The woman still did not let go of her child, but her eyes were filled with despair.

"Gouwa stole the sacrificial offerings, isn't this evidence of offending Gushen?"

Hearing these words, the woman's pupils shrank suddenly, and she sat limply on the ground, but she didn't let go of the hand holding the child.
