Chapter 316 Reluctant
Chapter 316 Reluctant
"The reward for completing the mission with great effort is really disappointing. Even cattle and horses are not worth exploiting like this. It turns out that working for the system means that after the remaining value is squeezed out, it becomes waste that is not even eligible for recycling."
Tongzi had a subtle expression: "I am not even scrap now. After all, the main god space no longer needs the system. I am probably scrap now?"
Feng Jiuqing lowered his head and kissed Tongzi's forehead: "Tongzi is my baby, he will never be a waste."
Tongzi was a little shy. After all, he was not a cat now, and he couldn't hide his blushing.
"A-Ajiu."
Tongzi stammered, "I will also try my best to protect Jiu!"
On the other side, Jiang Yuan fell into a room in the Divine Doctor Valley. There was no one else around except him, but a cold mechanical sound rang out in the air.
"Don't provoke that man. There's a madman next to him. I may not be able to fight him if he goes crazy. Just focus on completing your mission in the future. Don't provoke him again. I won't save you a second time."
Jiang Yuan's face was very ugly: "Do I have to swallow today's humiliation? Master, I won't accept this!"
"If you don't obey, you can change someone else."
"I'll be obedient! Master, please don't! I'm willing to do anything for you!" Jiang Yuan knelt on the ground, without any of his previous arrogance.
"Take away everything from the Son of Fortune and replace him. In the end, you must not provoke that madman!"
"Yes!"
Jiang Yuan knelt for a long time, and the voice did not speak again. He tried calling twice, but the person did not respond. Jiang Yuan then stood up.
The master's orders are above all else. He can temporarily not cause trouble for the Grand Tutor. Once the master's task is accomplished, he will slowly look for the Grand Tutor to collect the debts one by one!
The imperial examination was held as scheduled. Wen Cangtian did not participate as Zhu Sha wished, but Zhu Sha did participate. After the examination, Zhu Sha remained silent, which made Wen Cangtian a little flustered.
"Brother Zhu, didn't you tell me not to participate? Why did you go to participate in Chunwei?" Wen Cangtian asked softly.
Zhu Sha glanced at him and then quickly looked away: "You don't believe me? If you think I want to harm you, then think so. Anyway, the spring is over."
Wen Cangtian's face turned pale, and he quickly shook his head: "No, absolutely not! Wen naturally believed Brother Zhu, but Wen was curious and asked a few more questions. If it makes Brother Zhu unhappy, then Wen will not ask. Sorry to disturb Brother Zhu, Wen will go back now."
"The stage is set, but you have to get involved to catch the fish. What do you think, Mr. Wen?" Zhu Sha looked at him with a smile.
Wen Cangtian paused and walked back to Zhu Sha, with a look of disbelief on his face: "You! You actually used yourself as a ring? You clearly told me before that it was so dangerous, why did you do this?"
"Because I have no worries. As long as I can get revenge, I can do anything! I am already a lost cause, but you are different. You still have a future."
At this point Zhu Sha smiled and said: "Wen Cang is ashamed, be a good official in the future!"
Wen Cang was stunned, and suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Sha's collar: "Didn't you say that your master has already taken action? Why do you still want to be a guard? Why do you want to take risks? You are also a top scholar and a pillar of the court!"
"If you want to be a good official, go and do it yourself. Don't try to force your things on me!"
Zhu Sha smiled and said softly: "The Lord did not ask me to be a sergeant. I acted on my own initiative. I have stayed in this world for too long. Using my blood to open up a smooth road for everyone is not a blessing.
Wen Cang glared at Zhu Sha and said, "But you obviously don't need to bleed, why are you doing this? Your life is not a life, so your life is worthless? You can obviously be a good official who protects the people and the emperor, why are you seeking death?"
"You don't dare? You don't dare to be a good official, afraid that one day you will become corrupt like them, so you force this on me! Zhu Sha, you are such a coward!"
"It doesn't matter to me whether I'm a coward or a warrior. As long as my enemy gets the retribution he deserves, I can do anything!"
Zhu Sha looked lifeless. Wen Cangtian pulled him into the garden and pointed at the flowers and plants in the yard, saying, "Look at them. Whether there is anyone to see them or not, they are still blooming brightly! Zhu Sha, you are the only one left in your family. Just like them, you have to survive the freezing of last year to bloom brightly next year. Only when you are alive will others know that there are still people in your family. The better you live, the better comfort it will be for your family!"
Zhu Sha was stunned for a while before he slowly looked at Wen Cang's sparkling eyes. For some reason, he suddenly didn't want to die. If he died, he would never see such clear and bright eyes again.
Zhu Sha only thought for a moment, and soon returned to a state of no desire. "What I do has nothing to do with you!"
"It has nothing to do with me? How can it have nothing to do with me? You are my friend! Zhusha, I am waiting to become a good official who can protect the people with you. You can't break your promise!" Wen Cangtian's eyes made Zhusha involuntarily want to help him.
But in the end he just moved his lips and said nothing.
The results were announced soon, and the good news spread throughout the capital. Those who passed the exam were so happy that some even fainted, while those who did not pass remained silent or sighed.
"Brother Zhu, you passed! Congratulations! You are a second-class Jinshi!" Wen Cangtian's blessing was very sincere, without any resentment at all.
Zhu Sha sneered: "It's just second place, what's there to be happy about?"
Wen Cangtian said sincerely: "If you pass the exam, you will be a Jinshi, which will bring honor to the family!"
"Haha! Do you know whose essay is the top scorer's?"
Wen Cangtian didn't understand why Zhu Sha asked so many questions, so he shook his head honestly and said, "I don't know."
"It wasn't just him that I wrote about. The runner-up's article was also one I wrote in advance and sold to them for 1,200 taels of silver. But after I wrote it to them, I was chased by someone and finally jumped into the river to get rid of them."
"The reason you can still see me now is all because I am a good swimmer. Otherwise, you would have gone to the river to fish out a body whose face you can no longer recognize."
Wen Cang was stunned: "Brother Zhu?"
Zhu Sha pulled Wen Cangtian into the living room, where wine and food were already served, and pressed Wen Cangtian down on a chair: "We are so happy today, we won't leave until we are drunk!"
