Ye Tan walked up to Mr. Gu, pursed his lips and smiled, and handed over the copied book: "Sir, this copy is finished."

Mr. Gu took Ye Tan's copy, read it carefully for a while, and said with a twist of his beard, "Tan Nu's handwriting has improved again."

Ye Tan smiled shyly: "Mr. taught me well."

Mr. Gu shook his head with a smile, and his evaluation of Ye Tan was a bit higher. Not only is he talented, but he also works hard. What's more rare is that even if he has achieved something, he is neither arrogant nor impatient. If he is not physically different from ordinary people, I'm afraid the future is limitless!It's just a pity...Mr. Gu sighed secretly, and took out another book from the side and handed it over: "This book needs to be transcribed three times, and I have to work for Tan slave."

Ye Tan blushed slightly: "It should." Then he took the book, bowed to Mr. Gu and left.

After leaving the academy, Ye Tan went to the pharmacy to grab some medicine before going back.

Yin Sheng looked at Ye Tan's back and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Did you see that?"

Cui Bo nodded, a little unclear, so: "I see."

As soon as Yin Sheng heard it, he knew that Cui Bai didn't understand what was going on at all. He patted Cui Bo on the head with hatred: "You have been with your master for more than ten years, and your brain hasn't grown at all."

Cui Bai rubbed his head, and said aggrievedly: "The slave knows how to serve the master, not to mention the master said, it's better not to turn your head when you follow the master."

Yin Sheng raised his forehead: "Your master told you to stop turning, but didn't tell you not to turn! Hey! That's all! Can't you see that the man's face has been modified just now?"

Thinking of Ye Tan's appearance, Cui Bai frowned slightly. The man's complexion was dark yellow, his eyebrows were messy, his nose was small and straight, but the color was really dark. Cui Bai couldn't remember the shape of his lips, but his eyes were quite bright Yes, but even so, it can't make up for the lack of beauty. Thinking about Yin Cheng's saying that Ye Tan has been groomed, wouldn't it be more difficult to see people without grooming?

Yin Cheng watched Cui Bai's expression change, took a fan and hit Cui Bai's head hard: "Let's go, go back!"

"Ah?" Cui Bai opened his mouth wide and looked at the sky, "Master, it's still early, don't you want to look?"

"Looking for what?"

Cui Bo was puzzled: "Beauty."

"Didn't you already find it?" Yin Sheng said.

"Ah?" Cui Bai was dumbfounded, he has been following Yin Sheng's side, where is there beauty?

Yin Sheng didn't explain much, the first thing he should do now is to see Ye Tan's true face, then check his identity, and then how to get close to him.

Ye Tan returned home, put away the books first, went to the kitchen to cook medicine, and then went to Wei Shi's room.

Wei Shi was bedridden for a long time, and the room was filled with a strong smell of medicine.Ye Tan opened the window a little and walked to the bed.

Wei Shi fell asleep drowsily, his face was extremely pale, and his body was thin, covered under a thin quilt, his figure could hardly be seen.

Ye Tan's eyes were slightly red, and she stepped forward to help Wei Shi pull the quilt carefully, before going back to the room.

After grinding the ink, he took out a blank notebook, opened the book he got from Mr. Gu, and began to write. About half an hour later, Ye Tan put down the pen, got up and went to the kitchen, cooked the porridge, and cut the vegetables. Well, go back to transcribing again.

Another half an hour later, Ye Tan stretched his waist, went to the kitchen to pour the medicine, and took it to Wei Shi's room.

Wei Shi has not woken up yet.Ye Tan put the medicine on the low stool beside her, and called softly: "Mother, wake up, it's time to drink the medicine."

Wei opened his eyes in a daze, and smiled at Ye Tan: "My son is back."

Ye Tan nodded, deliberately showing off to Wei Shi: "I sent the book to my husband today, and my husband praised me for improving my handwriting."

Wei Shi nodded: "My son is smart, I am very pleased to be my mother."

"Come on, mother, drink the medicine." Ye Tan helped Wei Shi up, took two pillows and put them on Wei Shi's back, and then took the medicine from the side to feed Wei Shi. After drinking the medicine, Ye Tan took it Wiping off the medicine stains on the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, he said to Wei Shi, "Mother, rest for a while, the food will be ready soon."

Wei Shi nodded, just after drinking the medicine, his body gained a little strength, looking at the back of Ye Tan going out, his eyes were flushed.

Wei Shi has been ill for a long time, and he could do some things in the past, but recently he can't even get out of bed.Wei knows that his time is approaching, but he really cares about Ye Tan in his heart. Ye Tan is only 14 years old now, and there is still a long way to go in the future.

Ye Tan's body is unable to get married, the road is long, and he is alone, so he feels sad when he thinks about coming to Wei's.

Ye Tan finished cooking in a short while. He brought the table specially made by a carpenter to the bed, arranged the food, and slowly fed it to Wei Shi. After Wei Shi finished eating, he packed up the food again and went to The kitchen boiled water, and then began to eat.

Ye Tan has a small mouth and a narrow esophagus, so he would choke if he ate too fast, so he ate very slowly. After eating, he washed the dishes and boiled the water.

Ye Tan picked up the water, went to give Wei a little scrubbing, waited for Wei to fall asleep, and then went back to the study to copy the book.

The Ye family said that Ye Tan is now 14 years old, and when he is 16 years old, he will not care about them anymore.

The current county master is a student of Mr. Gu, and he respects Mr. Gu very much. Mr. Gu also said that when Ye Tan is older, he recommends Ye Tan to the county government to be a clerk for him.

Ye Tan is not worried about the future, he is only worried about Wei Shi's illness, the doctor said that Wei Shi might not be able to survive this winter.

It was late at night that Ye Tan put down his pen and went to wash his face. After cleaning his face, Ye Tan had recovered his true appearance.

Yin Sheng climbed on the wall and watched Ye Tan's complexion change from dark yellow to fair, his eyebrows changed from messy to neat, and even his eyes seemed to have changed shape, like peach petals in spring, with slightly reddish tips. It was so heart-stopping that Yin Cheng could only feel that his breathing was disturbed, and a fire suddenly ignited in his body.

After Ye Tan returned to the room, Yin Sheng came down from the wall. He didn't calm down until he returned to the inn. He took out a bamboo whistle and blew it intermittently. Although there was no sound, it seemed that there was a sound.

Not long after, a man in black appeared in the room, and that man knelt down towards Yin Sheng: "Master."

"Sheng Wu, go and find someone for me." Yin Sheng gave Ye Tan's address and asked Sheng Wu to leave.

Yin Cheng was left alone in the room again, and Yin Cheng tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Yin Sheng has his own secret guard of 30 people, and an army of nearly a thousand people.

Yin Sheng took the homonym of his own name as the surname of the dark guard, and the names were added sequentially as the order. This time, Yin Sheng only brought ten people with him, and the rest stayed in the capital to watch over the queen mother and the prime minister. Sheng Wu was among the ten people. He is best at collecting information, and sure enough, when Yin Sheng woke up the next day, there were already a few extra pages on his desk.

Yin Sheng flipped through the contents of the paper, and came to several conclusions. First, Ye Tan's mother died soon; second, the Ye family didn't want to see Ye Tan; third, Ye Tan was indeed a hermaphrodite. Fourth, Wei was very worried about what would happen to Ye Tan after he left.

To sum up, what Yin Sheng has to do is first get to know Ye Tan openly, and then please Wei Shi, so that Wei Shi can rest assured that Ye Tan will be handed over to him. Then the question arises, how to get to know Ye Tan?

As the saying goes, if you are sleepy, you will be given a pillow. Before Yin Sheng could figure out how to get close to Ye Tan, Ye Tan offered the opportunity himself.

Yin Sheng tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. As long as he closed his eyes, Ye Tan's face immediately appeared in his mind. Yin Sheng was not a womanizer, but when facing Ye Tan, his confidence that he would never be fooled by beauty in the past collapsed. Sitting up, wandering around the house a few times in agitation, he went to wake up Cui Bai and asked him to prepare a pen and ink, intending to draw Ye Tan.

But after spreading the paper, the hanging pen could not fall down.Yin Sheng closed his eyes and drew Ye Tan's face in his mind, but when he thought about it clearly, that face suddenly became blurred again.

Yin Sheng put down the pen, sighed, and waved his hand: "I won't draw anymore, put away the things."

Cui Baiying put away his things, and it was almost dawn, so he simply went to prepare breakfast for Yin Sheng.

After dinner, the master and servant went out together. Yin Sheng walked to the alley where Ye Tan's house lived. Looking at the closed door, Yin Sheng knocked his head with a folding fan unconsciously. Walking back, he saw the door next door opened, and Ye Tan came out from the door.

After Ye Tan went out, she turned around and bowed to the person inside the door: "My mother has to ask Aunt Li to take care of her."

The woman called Aunt Li was about [-] years old, with a plump figure, a loud voice, and a rather straightforward temper.She patted Ye Tan on the shoulder: "What are you talking about? Your mother and I have known each other for many years. What's the point of taking care of her for a day or two? It's you..."

When Aunt Li said this, she had a look of embarrassment: "After all, that place is very dangerous. Money is always trying to make money, and life is what really matters! If you don't go to Ye's house, they have a good reputation, so they won't ignore you Mother and child."

Ye Tan shook his head, it's not that he hasn't been to Ye's house before, and if he goes again, he will be humiliated again, he might as well go to Gugu Mountain to try his luck, maybe he can pick rare herbs.

Although the government issued a ban, saying that there are snakes, ants and poisonous insects in the depths of Gugu Mountain, Ye Tan does not believe it. Even if there are indeed woodcutters who entered the mountain and never came out, how could the back mountain be full of snakes and ants overnight?

After Ye Tan bid farewell to Aunt Li, she left directly.

Thinking about Aunt Li's face just now, Yin Cheng secretly thought that Ye Tan's going here might be dangerous. After thinking about it for a while, he said to Cui Bo: "Go back and wait, I have something to do." He was about to leave.

"Master!" Cui Bo hurriedly said, "Where are you going? Let the slaves follow."

Yin Sheng raised his eyebrows: "Why are you following? Hold back?"

Cui Bo is tongue-tied, he has a way of serving people, but the rest of the time, he is really a hindrance.

Yin Sheng tapped Cui Bai with his fan, and he left like the wind.

It took about two hours to walk south all the way out of the city gate, and it was probably noon when we reached the foot of the mountain.

Ye Tan was not very strong since he was a child, so he stopped and stopped along the way. It took almost three hours to walk for two hours. At his speed, it would be dark when he reached the mountain.

Yin Sheng followed behind unsteadily, a little dull.There is no beautiful scenery in the suburbs of Beijing, and here is a wasteland with nothing to see.

At the foot of the mountain, Ye Tan rested for a while, ate something, looked up at the sky, gritted his teeth, and went up the mountain.

Climbing halfway up the mountain in one breath, Ye Tan took out the water bag and drank some water, took out some dry food and ate some, took a rest, and continued to climb up the mountain.

Yin Cheng followed behind, took a bite of the sour fruit that had lost his teeth, and threw it away casually, cursing himself in his heart for following rashly without preparing anything.

Ye Tan rested twice before reaching the top of the mountain. It was already night, Ye Tan took out the fire pocket, and walked forward slowly to explore the road. In the forest, there was only the sound of his footsteps.

Ye Tan walked slowly, and suddenly a shout came into his ears, although the sound was not loud, but even a small sound made Ye Tan feel a sense of grandeur.

Ye Tan's heart skipped a beat, and he swallowed, thinking, could it be that the mountain is not haunted by snakes, ants and poisonous insects?Thinking about it this way, Ye Tan only felt that the whistling night wind seemed to have a somewhat gloomy feeling.

Ye Tan clasped his hands together, chanted Amitabha Buddha in a low voice, and quickly groped among the mountains.

Yin Cheng naturally heard the voice that Ye Tan could hear. Unlike Ye Tan, that voice was very familiar to Yin Sheng. After all, Yin Sheng's army of nearly a thousand people was trained by himself.

Yin Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly. This place is located in Huainan, with Gugu Mountain as a barrier, and after crossing this mountain, you will find Yangzhou Mansion. Judging by the loudness of the voice, the military camp is probably only five miles away from here. The number of people is probably quite a lot. It seems that the territory of Huainan can no longer satisfy the growing appetite of his uncle.

While thinking about it, Yin Sheng's ears moved slightly, his eyes turned slightly, and he saw soldiers patrolling here from a distance.He turned his eyes to Ye Tan, thinking about how to remind him, but Ye Tan suddenly let out an exclamation.Yin Cheng thought it was bad, but it was already too late.

The sound at night is still loud, let alone in this barren mountain.

Since King Huainan was training troops here, there would naturally be no shortage of patrols around. Even if the mountain had been banned, it was hard to guarantee that there would be no fish that slipped through the net, such as Ye Tan and Yin Sheng at this time.

When the patrolling soldiers heard the sound, they shouted, "Who!"

At the end of the sound, I heard four or five people running towards here.

Ye Tan didn't think there were people in the mountain, so he couldn't help feeling a little flustered.Ginseng has just been touched, seeing that four or five people are about to come, Ye Tan gritted his teeth, had to give up, got up and ran down the mountain.

I thought it would be good for those people to drive him away, but who knows that they are chasing him so hard that they even intend to shoot an arrow to kill him.Ye Tan remembered that the people who went up the mountain disappeared for no reason before, and he fully understood in his heart, how could this be missing for no reason?It was simply murdered.Who are they?Could it be a bandit?If so, why didn't the government encircle and suppress?On the contrary, it is helping the evildoers?

Ye Tan's steps became heavier and heavier. Seeing that the arrow was about to sink into Ye Tan's back heart, Yin Sheng suddenly rushed out from the side, rolled on the ground with Ye Tan in his arms, avoiding the arrow, but the arrow dodged, The next few arrows could not be avoided, they brushed Yin Cheng's left arm several times in succession, and the last arrow went straight in.

Yin Sheng snorted, but didn't dare to stay. He just took out the bamboo whistle and blew a signal, and then quickly ran down the mountain with Ye Tan.

After tossing and tossing for so long, it was midnight at this time, and the gate of the city had not been opened, so the two found a broken house in a nearby village to rest.

When Yin Sheng was injured, the two ran for their lives in a hurry. Now that they had rested, Ye Tan saw Yin Sheng's arm was stained red with blood, and his eyes turned red.He knelt down towards Yin Sheng, choked with sobs and said, "Thank you hero for saving your life, it's just that he was injured, I, I..."

"No problem." Yin Sheng smiled at Ye Tan, and said to Ye Tan, "Go and get me some clean water, this injury must be treated immediately."

Ye Tan responded repeatedly, got up and ran outside.

Yin Cheng watched Ye Tan go out, took out the bamboo whistle and blew a few more times, and after a while, Sheng Yi appeared.
