Quick travel: The little skeleton gave birth to multiple babies!
Chapter 5 Parting
The man and the skeleton chatted strangely for most of the night.
It also learned about the nerd's situation.
There was no way, there was no need for it to ask, the idiot just told it all.
It just couldn't understand why a living person would be so defenseless against something like it, which was obviously a monster.
This idiot's parents have passed away long ago, and he has an older brother at home.
For so many years, this eldest brother had been doing odd jobs everywhere to support his studies for the imperial examinations.
In order to support his studies, his eldest brother was still unmarried at the age of 26.
Originally, his elder brother was going to accompany him to Beijing for the examination this time.
Who would have thought that just a few days before departure, his eldest brother wanted to earn a few more taels of silver to supplement his health.
While putting up beams for a home, he accidentally fell down and broke his leg.
He felt sorry for his elder brother who had no one to take care of him, so he wanted to give up this imperial examination and think of taking it again next year.
But his eldest brother refused to agree and drove him on the road.
In desperation, he went with a classmate with whom he had a good relationship.
Who would have thought that one can know a person’s face but not his heart.
One day I stayed in an inn and woke up the next day.
The classmate disappeared, and with him also disappeared the travel money that his eldest brother had prepared for him.
He was penniless and had no other options, so he thought of this sacrifice.
I originally thought about copying books, but copying books is time-consuming after all.
He doesn't even know where to get his next meal.
There was still some time before the exam, so he stayed here to review his studies.
After all, there is no accommodation fee here.
He had already thought about it. He planned to save up some game so that he could eat it on the road.
After listening to everything, he only had one thought: "What a nerd."
In the next few days, the scholar continued to review his lessons and talked to it.
They talk about everything from all over the world.
From time to time, I would wipe the wooden tablet and pull out the weeds around the small mound.
Sometimes when it's in the mood, it will help him catch rabbits.
One was on the ground and the other was underground, and no one noticed anything was wrong.
On this day, it was still playing with gold ingots in its nest.
Suddenly I felt something was wrong.
The sound of reading!
Normally at this time of day, the idiot would have already started studying.
At that moment, it lost interest in playing with the ingots and quietly poked its head out.
Seeing that the idiot was still there, it felt relieved for some reason.
He just looked like he was in a bad mood.
"Why don't you study?"
The scholar raised his head when he heard the voice.
He stared at it, his lips moving for a long time but no words came out.
This idiot is usually very talkative, but now he is like this.
It's not used to it.
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
"senior……"
"Senior, I'm leaving now."
After he finished speaking, he looked even more lonely.
It was stunned, then thought about it.
That’s right, this idiot was going to take the exam, how could he stay here all the time?
Why do I just feel a slight sour feeling?
"when are we leaving?"
"We are planning to set off now..."
"so fast……"
It itself didn't realize that its tone was equally depressed.
"Senior, don't worry, I will definitely pass the imperial examination."
"When the time comes, I will come and take you home."
"It's so desolate here, it must be boring for you, senior."
"I will buy you a lot of funny things, and then you won't be so boring anymore."
Instead, the scholar cheered up and made a resounding promise to it.
This completely stunned it.
This idiot actually wanted to bring a monster home.
What a fool...
Then it asked its original question.
"Aren't you afraid? Aren't you afraid that I will hurt you?"
When the scholar heard this, he scratched his head embarrassedly.
"To be honest, I was also afraid at first."
"But later, as I got along with my seniors, I wasn't afraid anymore."
"Besides..."
"If Senior wanted to harm me, he could have easily killed me when I passed out."
This idiot is not really completely stupid.
If I wanted to harm him, I would have countless opportunities.
Then something suddenly occurred to me.
"wait for me a while."
After saying that, he hurried back to his nest and took out several gold ingots.
"Here you go, do your best in the exam."
The scholar was so shocked by this sudden scene that he stuttered.
"Senior...senior..."
"This, this is unacceptable."
"I, I prepared a lot of wild fruits and dried meat, enough for us to eat on the road..."
Now it is unhappy.
How come you are willing to give him such a precious burial object?
He even complained about it.
"Here you go, just take it."
"Why, you've already eaten the sacrifices, and you're still dissatisfied with my burial objects?"
It deliberately lowered its tone.
"Senior, no no...it's not that."
"How could I dislike it?"
"But... Senior, this is your burial object."
"What's wrong with burial objects? Flowers for people or ghosts, they're all flowers."
"Take it!"
When the scholar took the gold ingot, his eyes were red.
"Senior, wait for me."
Finally, the scholar said this.
Then he turned around, picked up the bamboo basket, and left without looking back.
From then on, there was only a skeleton left in this empty cemetery.
It dug another hole for itself not far away.
Some of the burial objects were moved there.
A cunning rabbit has three burrows. What if it mistakenly identified the person?
It didn't take the idiot's words to wait for him seriously.
The gold ingots given to him were just a reward for accompanying him these days.
What's more, supporting scholars can be considered as accumulating good karma for yourself.
Just don't know why.
It always peeks out quietly in the middle of the night.
Looking far away in one direction.
That is the direction that idiot left...
……
The days passed by like this.
Every day it either breaks its finger bones or plays with gold ingots.
When someone comes to pay respect, just listen for fun.
It had done the same thing before, and at that time it didn't think it was a big deal.
Just now...
There is something different after all.
As time goes by, more and more time passes.
The hope it hides is also fading.
On this day, someone came to worship again.
From the sound, it seems like it’s a father-son relationship.
The father scolds his son from time to time.
"Look at what book you are reading."
"Look at this year's top scholar."
"I heard that Mr. Wen, the top scholar, also came from a poor family."
"I don't expect you to be the top scholar, but can you pass the imperial examination for me and become a scholar?!"
"If you don't study hard, I'll break your legs!"
"Come and beg your grandfather to bless you so that you can pass the exam and become a scholar."
After that, it could no longer hear the intermittent conversation between the father and son.
My mind is full of “Wen Zhuangyuan”!
It remembered, it remembered that the idiot was called Wen Shuyan.
Could it be, could it be him?
