After hoarding billions of goods and traveling through the book, he farmed in another world to suppo

After saying this, Lu Yuan finally understood. If he couldn't even handle the current situation, how could he handle the long journey ahead?

Without waiting for Xiao Li to say anything, he let out a light breath, mustered up the courage to stare at the man's body, his little face still a little pale.

"If you're scared, don't watch it." Xiao Li had never thought of asking him to face such a scene. "You don't have to force yourself to face these. For the rest of the journey, Yuan'er can stay in the carriage, or stay with Jing'er and Xue'er."

What he meant by staying with Jing'er and Xue'er was obviously staying in the space, and the young husband naturally heard the implication of his words.

"I understand, my husband, you don't have to worry about me. I'm old enough and can take care of myself." Lu Yuan nodded gently and pulled him closer to the corpse. "My husband, there's a dead person here. Should we report it to the police?"

Death is a big deal whether it happens in the village or outside. It would be fine if the person died of old age, but if the person died suddenly outside like this, the government would definitely intervene.

If he were still unmarried, his first reaction would definitely be to hide from the government, so as not to be suspected by the government of having something to do with this person's death.

But now he is married, has read a lot of books, and his husband has taught him many principles of life and work, so he didn't think of leaving at the first moment.

Over the past few years, Xiao Li has watched him slowly transform from a teenager into a mature and steady person. It would be a lie to say that he is not pleased.

He did not answer directly, but asked: "What does Yuan'er want to do?"

"Me?" Lu Yuan thought about it in confusion, then stared at the man for a while and sighed, "I really want to just leave, but my conscience seems to be bothering me.

Although I don't know who he is, this place is so remote. If no one comes here, won't he just lie here like this forever?

My husband, I want to report it to the authorities and have them take possession of his body."

Xiao Li had always known that he was kind, so this was not surprising to him. "Okay, then let's report it to the police."

He did not tell Lu Yuan the cause of the man's death. He went to the government office with him, and then brought the yamen runners to move the body. The coroner who came with him walked around and took a look, and then recorded something with a carbon stick on the notebook he carried with him.

By now, Lu Yuan had gotten used to seeing the corpse. Not only was she not as scared as before, she even paid some attention to the coroner.

The coroner was a short, elderly man. Seeing that a young man was not afraid, he looked at him in surprise.

Everything that needed to be recorded had been recorded. After discovering that Lu Yuan was truly not afraid, the coroner asked him, "Aren't you afraid, young man?"

"I'm still a little scared." Lu Yuan pursed her lips and thought to herself: Isn't this already scary? If you had come a little earlier, you would have seen a different me.

"You're quite brave, young man." The coroner seemed very interested in Lu Yuan. "If this line of work didn't accept women and men, I would have taken you in as my apprentice."

Lu Yuan: “…” That’s not necessary.

He couldn't help but move behind Xiao Li, increasing the distance between them. "You're too kind. I respect this industry, but I have no interest in it, and I don't have the courage."

He is a self-aware man who knows that he is not cut out for this line of work and will not take others' compliments at face value.

Even if others are sincere in what they say, it doesn't make much difference to him, and he still has to be afraid.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he seems to be bold and enthusiastic now, it's just because he is used to it. If another corpse is here, he will still be scared to the point of his legs going weak.

At that time, being a coroner was not considered a good profession. Xiao Li did not look down on this profession, but...

"Thank you for your kindness, but he is more suitable for teaching and educating people than being a coroner." Xiao Li rejected the other party neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Hearing this, the coroner was stunned. He stared at the two of them in surprise for a moment, then nodded with an appreciative smile, "If you can teach and educate people, that's definitely better than being a coroner."

In fact, he had no other intentions. He just felt like taking the young man as his disciple because he saw that he was young.

However, even if he taught the other person the profession of coroner, he would not be able to become a formal coroner because of his identity. This was why he was not just talking about it.

The world is extremely unkind to me. If I can't marry into a good family, becoming a coroner might be a way out.

But it was obvious that the young man he thought was his apprentice Miaozi was not one of those people.

The man she married seemed to be a scholar, and was very caring towards her husband. From what she said, it seemed that the young man was not only literate, but also had the ability to teach. For such an outstanding young man, it would be a waste of his talent to be a coroner.

Lu Yuan thought he really wanted to take her in as his disciple, so she finally felt relieved. Her eyebrows curved, and she said to him with a smile, "You will definitely be able to find a disciple you like!"

"I hope so." The coroner smiled and agreed. Seeing that the bailiffs had almost cleaned up the scene, he said, "You two have reported to the authorities, so you can't just leave. How about we go together?"

Xiao Li looked at the young man beside him, and Lu Yuan also looked up at him.

They were both used to following each other's opinions, and at this moment they looked at each other at the same time, and couldn't help but raise the corners of their mouths.

Xiao Li touched his head and said, "Yuan'er, go ahead."

"Yeah!" Lu Yuan took his hand away and held it, preventing him from touching his head in front of so many people. Then she looked at the coroner and said, "Let's go together. We were going with you anyway."

Although they could tell the authorities with certainty that the man's death had nothing to do with them, as the people who reported the matter to the authorities, they could only stay in Yangzhou City and be ready to be summoned for questioning by the authorities at any time until the matter was concluded.

Although he had no intention of accepting a disciple, the coroner couldn't help but teach Lu Yuan some useful common sense on the way.

When he discovered that the young man not only understood things immediately but also could draw inferences from one instance to another, he couldn't help but sigh again and again, "If you were a man, you might become a famous coroner if you entered this field."

This was his lifelong aspiration, but unfortunately he wasted too many years. If he had not met Lord Chu, he would still be guarding the charity cemetery and would not even be able to be a coroner.

"I can't do it, only you can." Lu Yuan didn't have such lofty ambitions. Even though he was preparing to become a teacher, he never thought that he would be widely known or have many students all over the world.

He only hoped to be able to help the girls and boys around him so that they could know more things and not be like he did when he was in Yangliu Village, when he foolishly thought that it was unorthodox for boys to read and write.

The coroner couldn't help but shake his head when he heard his words, his expression revealing a bit of loneliness, "I'm old."

"What does it matter if you're old or young?" Lu Yuan turned her head to look at him and said seriously, "Besides, in your line of work, the longer you do it, the more experience you gain, right?

Just like scholars, I heard that many great scholars are also old people, you may be younger than them, you are not old yet! "

Perhaps because she had been with Xiao Li for a long time, Lu Yuan gradually felt that being in her early fifties was nothing.

The coroner looked to be about the same age as Xiao Shugen, in his fifties. Not young, but not so old as to be decadent.

Hearing this, the coroner was shocked. "Am I not considered old at this age?"

"Aren't you only in your fifties? If you are not old, you can continue to be a coroner for many years!" Lu Yuan really thinks that the other party can do it.

Although he didn't know how powerful the old man was, it was always a good idea to say a few good words when you were out.

He spoke so sincerely that it took the coroner a long time to react. He suddenly smiled and shook his head, "Old man, I am over sixty years old. I am really old."

"Ah?" Lu Yuan paused and turned to look at Xiao Li awkwardly.

The man was looking at him with a smile on his face. Seeing this, he switched places with him and took over the conversation with the coroner, "As long as you have the heart, even if you are in your seventies or eighties, what does it matter?

There are many people who are born at the wrong time and have no chance to realize their talents. They spend their entire lives pursuing their ambitions. Some of them succeed and some fail, but they will get the result only if they do it. If they don’t do it, they don’t even know the result.

I don't know what your ambitions are, but I think my husband is right. So what if you're old? So what if you're young? You have experiences young people don't have. You're far ahead of them. Instead of pinning your hopes on young people, why not try it yourself?

The worst that can happen is that your ambitions will be dashed, which is no different from doing nothing, right? "

If Lu Yuan's words shocked the coroner, then Xiao Li's words were like a revelation, pointing out a path that he had shied away from countless times.

However, just as the scholar said, the worst that could happen was just the current situation, so why not give it a try? What if it succeeded...

Thinking that one day his name would be widely known in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the coroner felt as if the blood in his body began to boil.

He stopped and bowed to the two of them with a serious face, "Thank you both for your guidance today, gentlemen. I am very grateful."

Lu Yuan had never seen such a scene before. She was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked at Xiao Li.

Noticing his gaze, Xiao Li glanced at him sideways. Seeing that he seemed a little at a loss, he squeezed his hand soothingly.

The man's deep black eyes were as calm as water. Under his silent comfort, Lu Yuan gradually calmed down.

He took a deep breath, then recalled how Xiao Li had dealt with such situations in the past, then took two steps forward and lightly supported the coroner.

"No, you are an elder and we are still young. How can we bear such a big gift? Isn't it too much for us?

We didn't do anything, just chatted with you. Even if you figured something out or realized something, it's your own achievement, you don't have to thank us."

The coroner stood up straight, his wrinkled yet serious face revealing a somewhat stiff but extremely sincere smile. "Your husband is right. Teaching and educating people is more suitable for you, little brother."

She was already embarrassed when Lu Yuan praised her, and now when she heard him talking about her husband, her ears began to redden. "I don't have that much ability, and I haven't even started yet. I don't know if it will succeed in the end!"

"Where there is a will, there is a way. Young man, you are so smart and insightful. Your husband seems to be a very capable person as well. With his help and guidance, you will be able to achieve your wish." The coroner had met countless people in his life.

Among all the nobles he had met, not many of them had the temperament of this scholar, and their thoughts were not as pedantic as those of the people nowadays. After all, few people at that time thought that he could be a teacher.

"Thank you for your kind words." Lu Yuan responded with a smile, but her eyes couldn't help but look at the person next to her.

I think I have good vision. I won such a good man so early. I wonder if Lu Youfu will regret it if he knows how well he is living now.

But when he thought about the fact that Lu Youfu was relying on a prince, he felt that Lu Youfu would not regret it. He might even laugh at him and think that his life was miserable.

It is very likely that she does not live as well as Lu Youfu. In her opinion, she lives a hard life.

Xiao Li naturally noticed his gaze and curled the corners of his mouth silently.

If he knew what his young husband was thinking now, he would definitely tell him: Lu Youfu regretted it so much back then.

First, she was poisoned and silenced by her lover in the previous life, and her space was taken away. Then she was sent to a brothel to entertain customers, and finally died at the hands of Xiao Li.

Putting aside the halo of the protagonist, the heroine is actually a foolish person who delusionally dreams of turning a pheasant into a phoenix.

It would be fine if her strength and ambition were equal, but apart from knowing the situation in the next few years and the space she owns, she lives in her own imagination day after day, and finally runs to the male protagonist and blows herself up. What's the difference between this and a waiter parading around with gold bricks?

All I can say is that she ended up in this situation because of her own actions.

Even if she kept a low profile after obtaining the space and slowly accumulated supplies, she would be able to save a lot of things in a few years, and surviving the famine would not be a problem.

Xiao Li didn't insist on her death. If she hadn't come to him again and again to seek a sense of existence, it wouldn't be impossible for them to keep to themselves and never have any contact with each other until they died.

I can only say that this is fate.

Xiao Li and Lu Yuan followed him to the prefectural yamen, where a yamen runner took them to the court to wait, while the coroner and other yamen runners left.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the coroner and the young prefect in red official uniform came side by side.

Because they were not suspects and were the ones reporting to the police, Xiao Li and Lu Yuan sat on chairs and waited.

Xiao Li was fine, but Lu Yuan had grown up so big that he would feel scared just looking at her from afar, let alone entering the yamen.

If he hadn't learned a lot from Xiao Li in the past two years and hadn't had his husband by his side, he wouldn't have known how nervous he would be.

When he just sat down, Lu Yuan was actually still very nervous, but after talking in a low voice with Xiao Li, he slowly relaxed and looked at the dreaded yamen with interest.
