Even Qin Bai was being targeted. I don't know what the big man was thinking, but he rushed towards him with a few rich and powerful servants.
Several people approached him easily, but facing Qin Bai, who had a calm expression, they were in a dilemma.
"You are really punished."
Qin Bai grabbed the big man's head with one hand and lifted him up, and the scene suddenly calmed down a lot.
"help me!!!"
Ning Caichen was fine with Qin Bai protecting him, but Zhang knew he was under siege. He tried his best to get rid of it but was unable to do anything.
Qin Bai casually threw the frightened big family away, and just glanced at them silently. The servant consciously let go of Zhang Zizhi.
On the contrary, nothing happened to Geng Yu, probably because his father was a Hanlin scholar and no one dared to use force against him.
Several people hid behind Qin Bai and followed him out of the crowd. This farce of arresting the son-in-law was finally over.
Then Qin Bai and Ning Caichen returned to the inn, and the fat boss had already heard the news and had been waiting at the door for a long time.
He didn't have much hope, but he didn't expect that the two of them won the lottery. Although the score cards were very close, they were first and second from the bottom.
Without Qin Bai asking, the fat boss reduced the rent and wanted to spend some money to ask the two of them to write inscriptions. Pens and ink were already prepared in the lobby of the inn.
Ning Caichen was a little embarrassed, but after thinking that he was short of money, he agreed. He wrote the four characters "Gold List Title" on the rice paper, which was very satisfactory.
Qin Bai didn't refuse. Thinking about it carefully, this was probably one of the few opportunities to make money by writing.
He wrote a few words on the rice paper, and Ning Caichen on the side showed a very brilliant expression. Although the words were weird, they were really good.
Qin Bai's fonts are different from those of calligraphy masters. Perhaps because he often draws symbols, there is a mysterious Taoist feeling between the lines.
It’s just that the content is a bit incomprehensible.
"what is this?"
The fat boss looked confused and saw the four words "YYDS" written clearly on the rice paper.
"This is a kind of charm that can be used to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters. Don't worry about it. Just make a plaque and hang it on the door."
"OK."
The fat boss liked it more and more as he read it. He always felt that the writing was far more interesting than others, so Ning Caichen's words were ignored by him intentionally or unintentionally.
This is also true. In the future, this calligraphy will attract many literati to watch it every day because of its unique font.
Several people drank some dishes in the inn until late at night. Ning Caichen was as drunk as a pile of mud. Even Qin Bai was a little drunk and slept until noon the next day.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the system interface appeared in front of him, and a new sign-in task came into view. He didn't know when it appeared.
"Please rush to the border town of Jinshawan within thirty days."
Although Qin Bai had already been prepared, his face was still a little ugly, mainly because the sign-in location was far away from him.
He was able to understand the approximate location of the place through the system. It was hundreds of miles away. He thought he could rest in Gusu for a while, but now it seemed that he would not be delayed.
Moreover, the yin energy emitted by Lu Pianbi is getting stronger and stronger, and it must be dealt with as soon as possible.
The only regret is that I may have to wait until I return to Suzhou to get my election documents.
After Qin Bai said something to the two of them, he went back to the house to pack his luggage. Time was urgent and he could not waste any time.
When he was standing in the yard holding the donkey, he was dressed like a wanderer, and the fishing rod and hammer were strapped to his back again.
"Brother Qin, why are you in such a hurry? The provincial examination results haven't even been released yet." Ning Caichen's head felt tingling after being hungover, and he kept rubbing his temples.
"Suddenly I remembered something that I need to deal with. You guys should stay in Gusu City for some time. Maybe I can make it back."
Ning Caichen thought about it and it was true. Although the probability of passing the next examination in the capital was low, he had to give it a try.
Qin Bai patted him on the shoulder: "See you soon."
Ning Caichen nodded. He planned to review his lessons in Gusu City, and then return to his hometown when the exam was approaching.
Qin Bai stopped inking, kicked the donkey's butt lightly and walked outside. The lanterns on both sides of the street were still hanging, and the imperial examination seemed to be just yesterday.
Ning Caichen and the fat boss watched him go away, and soon merged into the crowd.
The sun was shining brightly, and Qin Bai deliberately slowed down his progress. Lu Pianbi's yin energy was suppressed during the day, and could only be fully revealed at night.
He found a dilapidated temple within the city limits of Gusu and stayed temporarily, while his donkey ate fodder in the corner.
Then Qin Bai took out the Lu Pan pen from his arms. The paper figure was holding the pen and absorbing the Yin energy on it, with an intoxicated expression on his face.
(๑^o^๑)
Qin Bai cruelly separated her from Lu Panbi, and looked at her carefully without caring about the paper figure's angry look.
Compared with before, Lu Pian's pen had completely changed from wooden to bone-like, and without the suppression of the paper man, the Yin Qi on the pen suddenly showed signs of riot.
Now that the sky was getting dark, Qin Bai knew that if something happened, it would be this period of time, so he waited patiently.
The paper figure was bored and tried to sneak up to Lu Pan's pen several times, but was stopped by Qin Bai. In the end, she simply sat on the ground sulking and stopped moving.
As night fell, Qin Bai lit a bonfire, took out the cleaned river fish from the fish bag, put them on wooden sticks and roasted them over the fire.
Although his craftsmanship is not very good, it is better because the ingredients are fresh and meticulous, and the fragrance will come out after a while.
It's a pity that there are no ghosts around this ruined temple except Qin Bai. It's a bit uncomfortable to eat barbecue alone.
As time passed, Lu Pian's pen became more and more like bones, and flesh and blood gradually grew on it.
The original appearance of the brush is no longer visible, it looks like a finger with a pen tip.
There was a strange sound outside the ruined temple, as if someone was knocking on the wall bricks.
The paper figure couldn't help but become nervous. She took off the paper sword from her back and held it with both hands, with an expression on her face as if she was facing a formidable enemy.
Qin Bai was very calm, took out a jar of wine and drank it.
After a few sips, half the jar of wine was gone, and his eyes were half-closed as if he could fall asleep at any moment.
The paper figure looked in the direction of the door of the ruined temple. She looked back nervously at her old father, hating the iron in her heart.
Qin Bai simply closed her eyes. After she realized that she couldn't count on others, the paper man moved his eyes to Lu Pan's pen.
The paper man raised his paper sword and rushed towards Lu Juanbi, then raised his sword and slashed at it.
As a result, not only was there no wound left on her, but she was thrown to the ground by the sudden burst of power from the brush.
The paper figure rubbed her butt and her expression became fierce. She took a few steps and the paper sword in her hand exuded a metallic luster.
"Oh!!!"
The sword light flashed, not to mention that her sword did have some flavor.
But it is a pity that this sword light is enough to cut through steel, but it is still useless.
Just when the paper man who did not believe in evil was about to continue trying, she suddenly stopped where she was, then ran back to Qin Bai and got into his arms.
The donkey also made a frightened cry and hid itself in the corner of the ruined temple.
Under the moonlight, on the path leading to the ruined temple, a strange figure appeared at some point.
