The Hero of the Bright Moon in the Qin Dynasty Mo Wen

The son of heaven has nine tripods and eight cups, princes have seven tripods and six cups, high officials have five tripods and four cups, scholars have three tripods and two cups, and the common people cannot use tripods to eat.

Both Bai Ke and Jin Yao belong to the rank of Shishi, so they can be on the same level, three tripods and two gui, and there are some officials and villagers who have not been changed, but they are also at the rank of Qin's military merits. Bai Ke is alone, and then there are several Zanniaojue.

"Not changing ranks is the top of the ranks, which means that you can be exempted from changing ranks, that is, military service. It is the fourth rank of my old Qin army's meritorious ranks. If it is higher, it is a doctor rank, which can be a county honor." Bai Ke said to Jin Yao explained the meaning of Qin's military merit.

"The hairpin bird is the third highest in military merit. It is different from the head of Guizhou. It can be tied with hairpins to show its dignity!" Bai Ke introduced several other Cao officials, and pointed to the hairpins on their heads. They were ordinary people. What is not there, ordinary people can only tie it with hair bands, and these officials can only use hairpins.

Jin Yao nodded, and then looked at other wealthy households who could have three tripods and two cups.

"Shangzao, our wealthy households have two houses, three cows, and two servants!" Bai Ke smiled and led Jin Yao to the wealthy households and introduced them.

Seeing Jin Yao and Bai Ke coming, these people also hurriedly got up to salute and toast.

Jin Yao understood that going to school means that one wife and one concubine can have two houses, and they can also keep tenant farmers and servants.

"Comrade, one house, one servant, 50 shi every year." Bai Ke continued to introduce the last few people who can have a single eucalyptus, three tripods and two cups.

Jin Yao smiled and held up the wine bottle to salute everyone, and everyone returned the gift with a bottle.

As for the others, there are some people who join in the fun. They are not qualified to use Ding Shi, and there are only a few pottery pots and some plates filled with simple fruits and vegetables. The only meat can only be some pork. Dried meat, fish, and mutton are not allowed.

Jin Yao glanced around and knew the reason. Zhou Li had a strict and distinct hierarchy, which affected all aspects, and also made the people at the bottom yearn for the upper class.

Shang Jun subdivided this level into specific layers and opened up the path of ascent, so that Qin people yearned for a higher level and continued to work hard.

These, Jin Yao can clearly feel from the eager eyes of those children and even young adults looking at the mutton sauce meat in the three tripods and two cups on the eucalyptus.

In addition to meat, wine is also the most important food. The Qin State has stricter control over wine. The first-class scholars can drink wine brewed from some grains, while the head of Guizhou can only drink turbid wine brewed from berries. The amount that the first-class scholars can drink is also Quantitative.

"Fruit vinegar?" Jin Yao tried Qin's wine, and found that even the wine prepared by Bai Ke for him seldom tasted like grain, but more like fruits and vegetables.

"The Qin law is strict on grain wine making, even if there is a fixed amount of grain wine we can drink every year, but there is no limit to fruit wine!" Bai Ke explained.

Jin Yao nodded. Drinking is easy and unrestrained, so Bai Ke was also afraid of breaking the law after drinking, so he simply served them wine made from fruits and vegetables, so that even if they drank too much, they would not break the law.

The dinner party was quickly withdrawn, and what was left was some nonsense. After the food was withdrawn, melons and fruits were also replaced.

"Sir, coming from far away, I must have seen the customs of other countries. I wonder how the Qin Wu of my Qin country compares with other countries?" Bai Ke clapped his hands confidently, and looked at Jin Yao with a smile.

Following Bai Ke's clapping, a group of young and strong men walked into the square wearing strong clothes and holding swords and wooden shields.

"Drink~" The sword hit the shield, and the young men shouted and danced vigorously, chilling and mighty.

"Dongdongdong~" The drums sounded, and a group of young and strong men walked into the arena, taking over from the sword warriors, holding long Ge and halberds.

Jin Yao's eyes were serious, and he could tell that whether it was the sword dance or the halberd dance, they were actually not dances, but martial arts, the real killing skills on the battlefield.

"Everyone in Qin is like this, or is it just Bailong Town?" Jin Yao asked.

"Everyone in Qin is like this!" Bai Ke replied with a smile.

"As expected of a master of tigers and wolves!" Jin Yao nodded, knowing more about the reputation of the master of tigers and wolves in Qin.

The young and strong in any small town will know these battlefield killing skills, so once the king of Qin issues a war edict, one can imagine how huge an army with a certain combat power can be formed in an instant.

"When the farming is busy, the young and strong will plow the crops, and when the farming is slack, they will go to the county government to learn martial arts!" Bai Ke explained the origin of these young and strong war dances.

Jin Yao nodded slowly, no wonder the six kingdoms were afraid of Qin.

After the young and strong retreated, it was a group of girls in red who walked into the arena with their long sleeves waving, attracting applause.

"It's also on the occasion of my husband's arrival. These girls in red are all young girls of the right age. Every year, the town will hold a young and mature meeting, led by the government, and the men and women choose their own mates." Bai Ke said with a smile.

Only then did Jin Yao understand why there was a dance of young and strong men in the front, and Qin Wu of a girl in the back. It turned out that it was for the two parties to choose each other.

When young and strong dance, these school-age girls will secretly observe, looking for the object of their dreams, and when young girls dance, young and strong will also secretly observe, looking for the woman they like.

"Have you ever been married, sir?" Bai Ke suddenly thought, and then looked at Jin Yao.

Following Bai Ke's hearty figure, the girls in red also looked at Jin Yao, listening carefully.

The town is not big, and Jin Yao's identity and strength in the afternoon work have long been spread. In their eyes, he is a standard wishful man. He needs good looks, strength and strength, and his identity and knowledge are not enough. Low.

"Never!" Jin Yao smiled and shook his head.

As soon as Jin Yao's words came out, the girls' eyes lit up, and their family members whispered something in the girls' ears.

"Sir, do you have someone you like?" Bai Ke pointed his big finger at a group of young girls, and then asked.

All the girls also looked up, looking at Jin Yao expectantly, so that he could see more clearly.

But the young and strong are a little nervous. They have more or less goals when they come here. If Jin Yao chooses the woman they like, it may be difficult for them to win.

"Ahem~" Jin Yao coughed dryly. Are people in Qin so straightforward? In order to keep themselves, is this a direct use of beauty tricks?

"The future will be long, don't be in a hurry!" Jin Yao said hurriedly, but the girls were a little disappointed.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

What was more disappointing than the girls was their family members. Regardless of Jin Yao's status as a scholar, even the strength of that group of people is also a good farmer in the town, and there are several young and strong ones.

"It's a pity!" The officials and the masters all sighed.

When there is no war, the best way to be promoted is to pay rations. In addition to beheading and recording meritorious service, military meritorious titles pay more taxes, which is also a way to be promoted.

Bai Hua returned to her home with Jin Yao, whose lips were somewhat pale. It wasn't that the alcohol was too high, but that the wine at this time was more like vinegar, so it was easy to cause the lips to turn pale.

"Brother is back?" As soon as he entered the door, a girl in red greeted him.

The young girl's complexion is pale, but her skin is like creamy fat, and her waist is like a willow.

"I wipe~ ghost~" Jin Yao was taken aback, and his body smelled of alcohol instantly turned into a cold sweat and broke out in fright.

Under the moonlight, the girl's complexion was pale, her lips were scarlet, and she was dressed in red, fluttering in the moonlight, really like a female ghost walking out of a painting.

"..." Bai Hua and the girl both had black lines instantly.

"There is a shadow!" Jin Yao was relieved when he saw the shadow behind the girl.

"..." The girl and Bai Hua were speechless again.

"Cough cough~" Jin Yao coughed awkwardly, but his heart was still a little hairy when he saw the girl. Whose girl looked so pale and was dressed in red at night.

"This is Shemei, Baili, Liuli's glass!" Bai Hua then introduced.

"Um, Jinyao of a certain family, a scholar of the Mohist family!" Jinyao carefully sized up the girl, and then looked at Bai Hua.

"My sister?" Jin Yao asked suspiciously.

"My sister!" Bai Hua said helplessly, this was not the first time someone asked this question.

"It's not like!" Jin Yao shook his head and said, Bai Hua is a typical Guanzhong hero, with dark skin, and Kong Wu is like an orangutan, but the girl is as tall as a Guanzhong woman, but she does not have the wheat complexion of a peasant girl, and is as white as a sheep fat fairy Yu, no one would doubt that she is a noble lady.

The most important thing is their looks. The siblings are very different. Although the girl is pale, she looks like a ghost in the painting, while Bai Hua is like a wild orangutan bear. Standing together, the siblings are really a combination of Beauty and the Beast.

"Sister She has been weak since she was a child, so she does less farming on weekdays. Over the years, she is fairer than girls from ordinary families." Bai Hua explained.

Jin Yao still couldn't believe it, even if he didn't dare to do farm work, and he wasn't a noble lady, it would be hard to have such a complexion.

"Stretch out your hand!" Jin Yao looked at Bai Li and said suddenly.

"Ah?" Bai Li was stunned for a moment, but she still stretched out her jade hand and handed it to Jin Yao.

Jin Yao grabbed the jade hand and bit it down.

"What are you doing!" Bai Li and Bai Hua spoke at the same time, and Bai Li had already retracted her hand, looking at Jin Yao vigilantly, while Bai Hua glared at Jin Yao angrily.

"Uh, try to see if it's alive!" Jin Yao said awkwardly, then looked at Bai Li and asked, "Have you ever eaten a, uh, such a big red fruit?" Jin Yao put his hands on his chest He drew a big circle before, but in the end he clasped his hands together, resting his right index finger on his thumb, making a gesture the size of a thumb.

"..." Both Bai Hua and Bai Li were speechless, something as big as a thumb, why would you draw such a big circle on your chest?

"Yes!" Bai Li didn't say anything, but Bai Hua did, and added, "It was a fragrant fruit that A Li picked up by the river when he was five years old. I ate it by mistake, and then I was cold and fell into a dead state. The doctor in the town couldn't help it. I thought I was going to die. Who knows, I recovered later, but then I became weak and sick."

Jin Yao touched the corner of his mouth and nodded, and then said: ""Shan Hai Jing Xi Shan Jing": "There is a tree in the hills of Kunlun, its shape is like a begonia, the yellow flower is red and solid, its taste is like plum but without seeds, the name is Sand Tang; can resist water, eat it so that people do not drown. "

"What is that?" Even if Jin Yao explained, the brothers and sisters still looked confused. They had never even read a book, and they would not know one of the strange scriptures, The Classic of Mountains and Seas.

"Uh, it's a kind of strange fruit from heaven and earth. If people who don't practice eat it, their bodies will become cold. Generally, it's hard to live. Even if they can survive, it's hard to live!" Jin Yao thought for a while, and Tong Shui explained .

"However, if under the guidance of an expert, you embark on the road of cultivation and find a suitable method of cultivation, you will make great progress. Shatang is also one of the heaven and earth spiritual fruits of the water attribute, also known as the water god!" Jin Yao continued.

"My brothers and sisters don't understand!" Bai Hua and Bai Li hesitated for a moment. They didn't understand the spiritual fruit of heaven and earth, or the god of water. The only thing they remembered was that sentence. Li is now sixteen.

"Envy!" Jin Yao looked at Bai Li, and finally understood why she was born in a poor peasant family but her skin was as thick as fat. This is a rare fruit in the world. Ordinary people can't ask for it, at least the Mo family doesn't have it. Several people have eaten this kind of heaven and earth spirit fruit.

"Mister, please accept my sister-in-law as an apprentice!" Bai Hua thought for a while, and asked, since it is difficult for practitioners to come into contact with them in their capacity, and Qin's laws do not allow them to go out privately, so the only one who can rely now is Jin away.

"Me?" Jin Yao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. After the Mo family cultivated to become a ghost, they would have a choice of attributes, such as solid is metal, Lan is ice with mutated water attributes, Mrs. Xu's gold and fire, as for him... …Never mind talking about it, he doesn’t even understand that what he cultivated is a magical thing.

Others practice grounding, connecting heaven and earth, he will be fine, directly grounding the mansion, and cultivating the little ghost.

"But I can find a good teacher for her!" Jin Yao thought for a while, there are also a few leaders of the Mo family who practice water attributes.

Of course, if you want to bring out the best effects of Shatang, it must be Taoism's supreme goodness like water, but the supreme kindness is like water, one of the highest skills of Taoism, and it is difficult to learn unless you pass it on.

However, how could the genius discovered by the Mohists be given over to the Taoists? Don't even think about it!

"Now it's very difficult to practice in time!" Jin Yao shook his head hesitantly. There are only two years, even with the assistance of spiritual fruits, but the understanding of the scriptures cannot be understood overnight, and it is difficult to practice within two years To the realm equivalent to the Mohist eightfold Ming ghost.

Especially Baili is still illiterate and has not learned any sutras. If she wants to live, unless there is a master of the ghost realm who will help her sort out the meridians day and night and absorb the spiritual power accumulated in her body.

"Then what should we do?" Bai Hua was in a hurry, and looked at Jin Yao pleadingly. The brother and sister had depended on each other for their lives since childhood, but now that he knew that his sister's life was not long, how could he sit still.

Jin Yao didn't know what to do, and he didn't have enough knowledge and experience. This was the first time he saw this situation.

Chapter 110 Bounty Hunter Xiao Hei

"I will go to Xianyang in the near future. If possible, let Bai Li go with me!" Jin Yao thought for a while, but he didn't understand, but Xianyang is now in turmoil, and hundreds of elders gather, there should be a lot of people who can solve it.

The elder of Taoism will definitely come. After all, Qin State is the dojo of Taoism. There is no reason why no elder will come to sit in the town. It is even very likely that Chisongzi, the head of Tianzong, will come in person.

"Go to Xianyang?" Bai Hua and Bai Li were silent, Qin Fa was strict, and he could not leave without identity.

Jin Yao also thought of this. It is very difficult to leave Bailong Town without identity. Even if he is himself, he has to hand in an essay before he can walk freely in Qin State. Of course, it is not impossible to be a ranger. But You Xia'er seems to be free and unrestrained, but in fact, he can't enter any county in Qin State at all.

Bai Hua was silent, then gritted her teeth, looked at Jin Yao and said, "Mr., please accept the younger sister as a servant!".

"Ah?" Jin Yao was taken aback for another moment, and then he understood that according to Qin Law, a scholar can have a servant, even the lowest official, and as a Mohist scholar, he has four A servant, and no one will say anything more.

"You have to be clear, once you become a servant, you will become a slave!" Jin Yao said seriously.

"Compared to death, it's better to be a slave. The worst thing is that someone goes to the battlefield again, makes military exploits, and becomes a civilian loan for my sister!" Bai Hua gritted her teeth.

The military meritorious titles of the Qin State are allowed to protect their families, but if they want to transfer their military merits to their family members, the military merits will be greatly reduced. Originally, only one person needs to be beheaded to transfer from a slave to a civilian. After the transfer, two people have to be beheaded. .
