Lin Ke did not rush to ask questions, but waited quietly.
After all, for him, deportation is extremely important!
Although in his opinion, the division of three, six, and nine grades greatly blocks the circulation up and down the road, and is a system that is very unfavorable to the bottom class, and he doesn't like it very much.
However, if you don’t enter the tiger’s den, how can you catch the tiger’s cub?
If he doesn't deregister, he won't even have a chance to struggle, let alone change.
At this time, Qi Shangshu thought for a while and then looked at Lin Ke's "father". Seeing that he had no expression, he took a deep breath and said to Lin Ke in a deep voice: "I promise you to cancel the humble status. Got it!"
Lin Ke looked at Qi Shangshu and bowed slowly and said: "Thank you, senior. As long as you agree to the next two conditions, I will naturally help you complete the bet."
Qi Shangshu frowned and waved his hand, saying: "Don't worry, I also have conditions. You must win three competitions within a year before I can cancel your status."
Lin Ke's father didn't seem to hear him. He neither stopped Qi Shangshu, nor did his expression change at all. He didn't even look at anyone.
"Junior knows, even if it is not for your victory or defeat, I will do my best for myself." Lin Ke said firmly.
Qi Shangshu relaxed his frown and asked, "Tell me what your second condition is?"
"I..." Lin Ke opened his mouth and was about to speak when he was interrupted.
"Wait! If you want to become an official in the court tomorrow and become a minister of the Twelve Departments the day after tomorrow, then you don't need to say it anymore." Qi Shangshu reminded him.
After Lin Ke heard Qi Shangshu's hint, he understood in his heart that Qi Shangshu was once again drawing a bottom line for him, asking him to put in conditions slowly and not to mention them casually without any scruples.
Of course Lin Ke understands the principle of greed being insufficient and the snake swallowing the elephant.
So he smiled and said: "Of course not. Senior is overly worried. My request is absolutely reasonable."
"Then let go quickly." Qi Shangshu breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand in disbelief.
Lin Ke nodded and spoke slowly: "My second condition is that no matter where I go to study in the future, I want to have time to chop firewood every day... I also ask my senior to prepare enough firewood and hatchets for me."
Qi Shangshu: (ㅍ_ㅍ)?
Want to help chop wood every day in the future?
Is there such a good thing?
Could this kid be stupid?
Qi Shangshu was speechless: "Are you sure?"
"Concentrate and reach the top." Lin Ke replied calmly.
"To reach the top?" Qi Shangshu raised his eyebrows, a little touched.
Lin Ke said softly: "I hold the hatchet to chop the wood. I place the wood on the ground and chop it with my sharp edge. Once it is divided, the left and right weights are the same. There is no other, but my hands are familiar with it."
"You are familiar with it?" Qi Shangshu was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes brightened: "I agree to this condition, next one!"
Even the look in Lin Ke's father's eyes changed slightly.
When Lin Ke heard that Qi Shangshu agreed to this condition, he looked happy and bowed to Qi Shangshu to express his gratitude.
After he stood up, he said: "My third condition is that I move the plum tree in the firewood yard to where I want to study."
"What's the meaning of this condition?" Qi Shangshu thought for a while and asked.
Lin Ke looked around at the two people's reactions and saw that his father had no reaction and remained calm.
Then he slowly said: "The character of plum blossom reflects my body."
Lin Ke took a deep breath as he spoke.
"The plum blossoms have never stopped blooming due to the cold wind in winter. Many times the plum blossoms were still in full bloom during heavy snowfalls. I was deeply touched by this, so I told myself many times in my heart that I must establish this perseverance spirit and always be aware that I must not let myself be fed, warm, and comfortable. , wealth, and laziness and self-indulgence.”
Lin Ke stopped and looked at the changes in the expressions of his father and Qi Shangshu.
His father is still the same.
As for Qi Shangshu, his eyes were shining brightly and his face was full of smiles.
Lin Ke seemed to hesitate for a moment, then continued: "There is another very important reason...this plum blossom was planted when my mother was still alive. The only thing I can't let go of is the plum tree in the Lin Mansion."
Lin Ke's words were intentional, just to hurt his father's heart.
But nothing seemed to affect that man's state of mind.
That's fine... Lin Ke felt certain in his heart.
Since "Lin Ke"'s father is indeed a stranger to "Lin Ke", he can have no psychological burden.
When Qi Shangshu heard Lin Ke's words, he was happy at first, but when he heard the second part, his eyes were complicated, but he still laughed and said: "Okay, I will move the plum tree for you later..."
"I agree to all three of your conditions. Are there any other questions?"
Lin Ke smiled and nodded.
"Okay, that's it. Then go back and prepare."
After hearing this, Lin Ke turned around and was about to leave, but he looked up, looked left and right, and then turned his head again after thinking about it.
Looking at the middle-aged man named Qi, he shouted: "Senior!"
The middle-aged man surnamed Qi was about to talk to Lin Ke's father when he was interrupted by Lin Ke's shout from a senior. He turned to Lin Ke and asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Do you have any questions?"
Lin Ke smiled and said: "Senior, you were too hasty in calling me here just now. I didn't remember the way. Please ask someone to show me the way."
The middle-aged man named Qi was stunned for a moment, then smiled, raised his hand that was already on the table, waved it, and said something.
"Let's go!"
coming!
Extraordinary power!
Lin Ke cursed in his heart, if he is so powerful, he can't walk well? I was asked to fly here and there, and I never thought I would be able to bear it.
But Lin Ke soon discovered that he had been worrying too much. This time he saw clearly how he left. He seemed to be wrapped in a blown balloon and flew into the sky.
Lin Ke watched many scenes passing by quickly in front of him. He flew over many places, including small lakes, pavilions with white glazed tiles, gardens with blooming flowers, busy servants, etc.
When he felt his feet hit the ground, he found that he was standing in the plum tree yard.
After landing, Lin Ke looked around in shock. Finally, Shangshu Qi seemed to have said, "Leave you?"
Shouldn't it be a poem?
Or is it okay not to read poetry?
Or maybe there are distinctions between extraordinary powers, and different powers are manifested in different ways?
He stood quietly in the courtyard, looking up at the sky, motionless, thinking about everything today.
At this time, the sun was setting in the sky, and the red clouds in the sky took up most of the view.
The sky in the twenty-first century is different from the one we once lived in.
At that time, Lin Ke often stood on the roof and looked up at the sky. Compared with the sky at that time, the blue here made Link feel cleaner.
And under such a clean blue sky, I wonder if the reality of this world is the same as the previous world, with black and white coexisting, dirty and clean coexisting.
Lin Ke looked away and thought of his father who had no emotion in his eyes just now.
He didn't have any anger or other emotions. After all, he was not "Lin Ke".
However, he could also slightly think of the origin of Lin Ke's father's indifference.
Of course, now that you have this opportunity to go out, you don't need to worry about Lin Mansion anymore.
Chop wood, chop wood!
Thinking of this, Lin Ke came to sit on the small stool in front of the firewood door and continued his previous work - chopping firewood.
"Snapped……"
"Snapped……"
The only sound left in the small courtyard was the sound of chopping wood.
…
At noon on the second day.
Qi Shangshu suddenly appeared in the yard where Lin Ke lived. Lin Ke, who was chopping firewood, was slightly startled for a moment, and then he came to his senses.
"I've met Senior Qi."
Lin Ke stood up and bowed, then picked up the cloth bag at his feet, stuffed the hatchet into the gap in the bag, and said:
"Junior has already packed up. Senior Qi, let's go."
