Chapter 328 Discussion when combing hair
"Master, do you think the monk who bewitched He Shunxin was from the family of He Shunxin's father's new wife or was it another monk hired by them?" Yang Yuyao asked curiously. His intuition and reason told him that He Shunxin's father, the man named Xiang, was probably not a monk. It's not because the man's approach seems to be quite patriarchal, although the status of female monks among monks is much higher than that of mortals, and the monks are more likely to accept female monks as leaders.
But judging from the fact that most monk families still only allow men to serve as heads of the family, the situation of favoring boys over girls also exists among monks. The reason for Yang Yuyao's judgment was that the man named Xiang not only found a mortal woman as his wife, but also had his experience in the army.
In the Xia Kingdom, all qualified mortal men over the age of 18 have a two-year compulsory military service. However, if there are multiple children in the family, only the eldest son can join the army. The reason why the Xia Kingdom can do so later than other countries The purpose of military service was firstly because the Xia Kingdom had no shortage of soldiers, and secondly because they wanted those who served in the army to get married first and leave offspring. In this way, even if a battle results in a large number of sacrifices, the population will not decrease too sharply. In addition, having children left behind is also a comfort to the family.
In this world, people care more about continuing the family line than the stress of raising children. Moreover, if the child's father really died on the battlefield, the Xia Kingdom's pensions, distribution and land to the fallen soldiers would be enough for the child's mother to raise the child until the age of fifteen without doing any other work. But if you have no children, or even not married, the pension will be much less.
After serving for two years, if there is no major war, ordinary soldiers can leave the army and become a registered reserve army, receiving state subsidies and land, but they need to spend one month every year doing local patrols, guarding fire towers, etc. Such service work.
But if you are a monk who joins the army, the treatment will be much better. If a monk joins the army and starts at the eighth level, he will receive an official's salary, and he will have money and materials, as well as various cultivation resources. But if you retire from the army, it is equivalent to voluntarily resigning. You can only get some money and land like a mortal soldier, but your salary is gone. Therefore, once most of the monks in Xia Kingdom join the army, few will voluntarily quit. Therefore, these differences in treatment result in different choices between monks and mortals, so it can be roughly speculated that the man with that name will not be a monk.
Yang Yuyao recalled that when Yang Yihua rushed to He Shunxin's house yesterday and had time to communicate with them through Xunlian, he said that in fact, many people did not know much about these subsidies and pensions. The same is true for He Shunxin and her grandmother. They know that there will be pensions for sacrifices, but they don't know how much or how they will be paid. They don't understand, but they won't take the initiative to ask.
Therefore, before they met Yang Yihua, they did not even know that the pensions for fallen soldiers were paid in two installments. The first batch will be relatively small, and the second batch will be distributed after one year. The reason for this is said to be to prevent orphans and widows from having their pensions completely forcibly taken away by vicious relatives or neighbors. Because it is difficult to provide valid evidence. It is also difficult to get the money back if you file a lawsuit. So pay less the first time. If it is taken away from you, no matter whether you can get it back or not, at least you know the other person's face, which will help you to be more careful and keep an eye out, and you can get the remaining pension the second time. Jinshi will find a way to put it away. Of course, if it gets snatched away for the second time, it can only be said that you are too stupid.
The second pension will be paid out one year later, but it will not be fixed at a certain time. In the past, He Shunxin and Granny He didn't know that a soldier's pension would be paid twice. They just heard that they were married and married. Children's pensions will be larger after they die as soldiers. This resulted in the news of Granny He's son's death arriving at their home together with the first pension payment, and a year later they received another pension. Although there was no news of the death of He Shunxin's father, I thought that the man named Xiang was an orphan and had no relatives except Granny He and He Shunxin. After the death, no one else needed to know the news of his sacrifice. This money There were too many, and Granny He thought that the man named Xiang had also died.
But at that time, if he really died, there should be a specific obituary like the son of Granny He. This made the two of them confused about this, and they thought that the man named Xiang only knew that his wife's home was in Xiadu, but he had never been there. Instead, he married He Shunxin's mother from the house of Granny He's relatives. .
This practice is not too uncommon for women who marry far away. Those girls in Xia who go out to work generally feel that it is safer to work under their wealthy relatives. If you meet your sweetheart here and your home is more than a day's journey away, those relatives will agree to free up an unused guest room and bring the girl's parents over so that the man can pick her up in the guest room.
However, in order to do this, the couple needs to prepare a special gift and gift money for the relative's family, so that the relative's family can worship Hongxi Tianjun, who is in charge of marriage and marriage. People in this world believe that every house has a certain number of red and white things, and borrowing them from others is equivalent to occupying one's own quota. Therefore, it is absolutely not allowed to lend a wedding room to others, but you can lend a guest room to a girl waiting for her wedding. You also need to worship Hongxi Tianjun when lending, and tell him the name, birthday and place of birth of the girl to be married.
It means that this girl is not a member of my family, and because her family is far away from the husband's family, I am kind enough to lend my guest room to this girl and wait for her to get married. I'd like to trouble Lord Tianjun to transfer the girl's wedding quota so that your own marriage quota won't be consumed. People think that as long as they do this, they will leave a good impression on Hongxi Tianjun, which will not only help others, but also accumulate moral virtue for their own family, so they are willing to borrow girls to get married.
When He Shunxin's mother got married, Granny He was still very healthy and did not need anyone to take care of her. Therefore, it is possible that Granny He's son also worked for their relatives, and Granny He returned to the summer capital after her daughter's wedding. Granny He's unmarried son and the man named Xiang joined the army there with official duties. If the soldiers joining the army were not from the local area, even if He Shunxin's mother did not return to Granny He to raise her child, someone would come to tell her. Granny He said her son had been drafted into the army and informed him of his specific contact information.
But after joining the army, I would be transferred to different places as needed, and sometimes this letter would not arrive in time. Even if you send a letter, what if the address mentioned in the letter is not detailed enough, or maybe the letter is lost? The Schrödinger's life and death of the man named Xiang, in the hearts of Granny He and He Shunxin, they are more and more inclined to death as time goes by.
If the man named Xiang really died, the pension from the two of them would be enough for He Shunxin and Granny He to live quite well. If the land cannot be cultivated, they can be rented to others for cultivation. But there is only a pension for Granny He's son. Because He Shunxin's uncle is not married yet and has no children, his pension is very small. If Granny He uses this money to raise He Shunxin, it will definitely not be enough. However, these two people were very strong and worked hard to survive.
Yesterday in the family group of the Yang family, Yang Yihua asked her with some regret whether she should not tell He Shunxin about the pension payment method for the sacrificed soldiers and the approximate pension payment for different soldiers, and let He Shunxin. Soon-shin was able to confirm that the news that her father was still alive was true. If she hadn't told him, wouldn't He Shunxin have gone to find his father, and wouldn't he have been poisoned and murdered?
In this regard, Yang Ningxiu gave an opinion similar to Yang Yuyao's. That is to say, the man with that surname must have received the letter sent to him and learned that his wife was dead and gave birth to a daughter, so he decided not to go back. If he didn't know, he would at least go back and take a look. Therefore, even if He Shunxin didn't find her, the man knew that he had such a daughter. When he needs it, the daughter he doesn't want and wants her to disappear will inevitably be taken out as a sacrifice. But he would probably describe He Shunxin as his relative rather than his daughter.
Yang Yuyao opened the Xunlian light screen and turned on the sharing mode. He Qianqing was thinking about what kind of hairstyle to give Yang Yuyao to match today's outfit, and temporarily stopped what he was doing. Seeing Yang Yuyao turn on the Xunlian light screen, he also glanced at it.
As more and more people were added to the account named after his own name, and many business partners were added to Jin Yuesheng's account, so Yang Yuyao made some changes to his Xunlian account, so that he no longer needed to switch accounts to view it. and message back. Although Yang Yuyao had previously transferred Jin Yuesheng's trumpet to another Xunlian for his clone puppet to carry. But now he's back in touch. This allows him to respond when he is free, and the clone puppet can save the time of replying to messages, explore more wonderlands and collect more materials.
Yang Yuyao first checked the backend of Renwoxing Map to see if any monks had started leaving messages to hide certain places. These messages can only be seen by him who can enter the background, and other Xunlian users cannot.
Chizhu Taoist: My friend, the map within the Lingxiao Sect needs to be hidden. In addition, I have a cruel request. Can it be set so that other people’s maps cannot display the interior of the Lingxiao Sect, but the maps of the monks of the Lingxiao Sect can be displayed?
"Ah, regarding this request, there was also a man named Jiang Mu in Gongping this morning. I don't know which sect's disciple or elder he was, complained that the environment of their sect was too complicated and it was easy to get lost." He Qianqing said.
"Are the maps only open to sect insiders? This is a little difficult. I have to talk to senior Chizhu Taoist. Well, let's hide the Lingxiao Sect first." Yang Yuyao started to set up. He had been to the Lingxiao Sect and lived there. After one night, he didn't know the specific scope of Lingxiao Sect. This is especially true for other sects that he has never been to, so he thought of a solution before this function was launched. That is, if someone applies to hide a certain place, in addition to giving the person's identity and the place to be hidden, he Except for reasons such as relationships. A nearby map will also appear, allowing you to circle a specific range.
Xunlian's virtual map is automatically generated by scanning the surroundings. It can display topographic maps of very far away places. Detailed high-magnification map data is not enough, so it cannot yet produce the electronic map used by Yang Yuyao. In this way, you can continuously reduce the scale of the map from one place to another, find a place far away, and then select it to enlarge it for viewing. This operation can only be done if there are accurate data punctuation of the places where Yang Yuyao led Xunlian.
Therefore, he opened the open beta to obtain more data, and was not too worried that other monks could find out the detailed layout of a certain sect or family from a long distance. Although he is now in the Xia Capital, and the map has detailed data on the Xia Capital, he has already hidden the imperial palace and the General's Mansion, making these two places unsearchable. But having said that, if it is not accurately marked, even if you see it on the map, you may not know where it is.
"The ones that need to be hidden are Liuyun Sect, Xingchen Sect, Wanhua Sect... Hey, Tianshi Sect, Xuanzhen Sect and Longhu Sect don't actually ask to hide their sects on the map. Qi Baixue even asked them to hide their sects on the map. Can the map be more detailed? Master, the Jiang Mu you are talking about is not from the Dragon and Tiger Sect, is he?" Yang Yuyao asked in surprise.
"It's possible that the mountains where the Dragon Tiger Sect is located are all tall and thin, and there are many natural caves in the mountains, so they built buildings here and there, and their physical training is mostly casual. , maybe build a house there if you like it. I remember, the last time I visited the Dragon Tiger Sect, Qi Baixue looked for at least three three peaks in order to find the canteen." He Qianqing replied with a smile.
"Eh? Even the master of the Dragon and Tiger Sect..." Yang Yuyao was a little surprised, but thinking about it, he felt that maybe Qi Baixue, as a high-level monk, did not have the necessary need to eat even if he was practicing physical training. Moreover, as the sect leader, he can open a small stove and does not have to go to the sect canteen to eat, so he has not been to the sect canteen for a long time, and it is very possible that he cannot find it.
"Xiao Yao, regarding the question you asked, my teacher's opinion is that they must have been poisoned by another monk. At least they have no blood relationship with the person who needs to change his life." He Qianqing was thinking about what hairstyle to give Yang Yuyao. He started to work again and said while combing. "It's very easy to change the life of this Gu, to refine the Gu, and to cast the Gu. And once this Gu is removed, the person who refined the Gu will not suffer the backlash,"
"Generally speaking, the better you refine the Gu, the greater the backlash of failure?" Yang Yuyao was a little confused. He was not too interested in the Gu category. He had done a lot of high-level courses in order to understand Bai Lingxue. The knowledge of Gu, now suddenly found that I don't know enough about this simple Gu. Sure enough, people cannot do things entirely based on interest.
"Yes, it sounds very counterintuitive, but in fact, the life-changing Gu is not without backlash, but its backlash appears on the person who wants to change his life. Not only that, the blood relatives of the person who wants to change his life except the chosen one In addition to the victims, they will also be harmed by the backlash of this Gu." He Qianqing explained, Yang Yuyao's eyes widened in surprise.
"In other words, the backlash effect of this poison is not only a one-for-one exchange, but also a high-injury splash effect!" Yang Yuyao exclaimed, and he understood why He Qianqing concluded that the monk who cast the poison was not a relative of that family. It's simple. The poison is easy to remove. Even if the person you want to murder is a mortal with little to rely on, if the poison is removed, it will inevitably cause backlash. Therefore, if you are a relative, you will basically not want to do this. Even if it does not necessarily harm yourself, your partner and children may not be spared. The other monks invited would not have such concerns. As long as he feels that doing this is worth it.
"Xiao Yao, what do you think of that man?" He Qianqing asked after inserting a simple and elegant gold hairpin into Yang Yuyao's hair.
"Huh? Him? I think he is a vicious and soft-boiled man who will do whatever it takes." Yang Yuyao replied. He opened the public screen and found that the monks who were free were still discussing their experience of dressing up and drawing cards.
"What does soft rice man mean?" He Qianqing asked puzzledly.
"It's a man who completely relies on women for food, money and status." Yang Yuyao explained. "I think he married He Shunxin's mother not because he loved her more, but because he knew that she was from Xiadu and had such rich relatives, so he felt that he could use her to get to Xiadu. His partner was from Xiadu, and besides The money and land he received after retiring from the army could help him establish a foothold in Xiadu. After He Shunxin's mother passed away, although the new wife he found was not from Xiadu, she should be from a relatively wealthy and powerful family in the local area. "
"That the woman dared to quarrel with him shows that the woman is not afraid of him. Even if the man has served as a soldier, the woman's family can give the woman enough support. And the man beat He Shunxin hard before driving her away. , if you simply don’t want to recognize each other, you can just drive away. When he did this, I think he was attached to the woman’s family, so when he expressed his stance to the woman’s family, he only showed his support to the woman’s family, and completely severed ties with the past. .”
As soon as Yang Yuyao finished speaking, a message from Yang Yihua sent to the family group popped up on the top of the Xunlian light screen.
Yang Yihua: Shun Xin’s symptoms did not get worse after wearing the coins given by Xiao Yao. She said she felt less uncomfortable. Now she believes that someone is trying to harm her and asks me what to do. So what can I do next to help her completely get rid of the poisonous effect?
