A place called the Sugarwood in the southern suburbs of Zhonghe Town, Danzhou.

This place is in the wilderness, with mosquitoes and ants growing, the environment is harsh, and there are no houses, and of course no one lives there.

However, there is a lot of people here. Countless people in the Li family are carrying soil and carrying stones, and are making final arrangements for the three newly built houses.

After Su Shi and his son were expelled from the official residence, they came to the beef forest. The people of Danzhou could not bear to see Su Shi and his son sleep in the open, so they spontaneously built three simple houses for Su Shi, giving Su Shi and his son a place to live, and Li Sanjian and his tribe members were among them.

What is amazing is that there are some soldiers among the housebuilders. Of course, these soldiers are not the most elite imperial guards in the Song army, but some half-agricultural and half-armed soldiers and village soldiers.

"What should we do with so many mosquitoes and flies?" Li Sanjian looked at the group of mosquitoes and said distressedly.

This place is close to a pond, and mosquitoes are growing. They can almost hold a handful of mosquitoes with their hands, which makes Li Sanjian very distressed, but helpless.

"Brother Jian, there are only a variety of lemongrass, basil, catnip and other plants. It may be much better in the coming year." said the second year of high school who was helping out.

Li Sanjian nodded after hearing this, "Brother knows so much."

When the second year of high school heard this, he smiled proudly and said, "Your brother, I know astronomy, geography, divination, etc. I am all-round and versatile. When I was in the capital, I was called Gao Banxian."

"Haha" Li Sanjian couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Li Sanjian knew in his heart that he was a shameless person to brag about himself. Li Sanjian already knew that he was a scoundrel from the second year of high school. He was originally a rogue rogue in Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo. Later, because he offended the official family, he joined Su Shi as his personal servant.

In the second year of high school, he has some skills in poetry and essays. He writes good writing and can also use guns and sticks. Otherwise, Su Shi would not have taken in the second year of high school.

Although he was a humble person from the second year of high school, Li Sanjian had no intention of looking down on him.

After following his master from the second year of high school, Li Sanjian admired his second year of high school from the bottom of his heart.

Li Sanjian was born in a lowly second year of high school, and he was not much better. He was born in a lowly family. So the two brothers were both sick and became brothers who could talk about everything.

.........

"How about this piece?" Su Shi asked after twisting his beard, falling down a chess piece.

Because Su Shi was old and could not help building a house, he sat in the distance to play chess with an old friend.

"Mr. Dongpo, are you talking about this piece or that person?" Zhang Zhong asked with a smile.

Zhang Zhong's name was Daozhi. He was over 40 years old. He was from Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo. He was originally a martial arts practitioner. Later, he studied and practiced calligraphy. He passed the imperial examination in the third year of Xining.

Zhang Zhong was loyal and bold, so he offended the powerful and powerful in the court and was demoted to Danzhou, and was appointed as the military post of Changhua.

Zhang Zhong admired Su Dongpo's character and talent and sympathized with his experience. When Su Shi was in Danzhou, Zhang Zhong had always taken good care of Su Shi. At this time, he heard that Su Shi was expelled from the official residence, so he sent troops to assist Li Sanjian and others in building Su Shi's residence regardless of the risk of offending Shangguan.

"So what about chess? So what about people?" Su Shi asked.

"Chess is a good chess, I can't figure it out." Zhang Zhong looked at the chessboard and replied with a smile: "The person is also pretty good. He dared to argue with the officials of the court at a young age.

And they were speechless. I was a little surprised after hearing this. It was really interesting!"

"Haha, it's really interesting." Su Shi said with a smile.

"The younger generation is terrifying!" Zhang Zhong continued: "The most important thing is that this son is kind to the people and is extremely respectful to his teachers. With these two things alone, I think this son may have a future."

"The Tao is ridiculous." Su Shi said: "At a young age, it may not be a good thing to show off your sharpness. The trees are so beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy them. How can a person who does not know how to restrain himself accomplish great things?"

"Big thing? What is the big thing Mr. Dongpo said?" Zhang Zhong asked in confusion.

Su Shi shook his head and smiled and refused to answer.

Zhang Zhong did not understand Su Shi's intention, but he didn't want to say anything, so he was not inconvenient to ask the bottom line.

"Daozhi, aren't you afraid of being implicated when you act?" Su Shi asked after a while.

Zhang Zhong mobilized troops to help Su Shi build his residence. If the matter was learned by Shangfeng, he would inevitably be implicated. Both of them understood this very well.

"At worst, you can be dismissed from office and removed from your post and go back to your hometown to farm, what's the harm?" Zhang Zhong smiled and said, "Besides, this place is already at the end of the world. How bad can it be? "

When Su Shi heard this, he immediately looked at Zhang Zhong and smiled.

"Master, Master, the house has been built and can be moved in." At this moment, Li Sanjian ran over excitedly and said.

"Rareless." Su Shi scolded when he saw this: "Have you forgotten the etiquette again?"

Li Sanjian opened his mouth wide, and after a while, he curled up his clothes and bowed: "Pupils pay homage to Master, and to Taiwei Zhang."

"What's the matter?" Su Shi asked.

"Pupils ask your master to move into your new residence." Li Sanjian whispered.

The emperor was really not in a hurry to die the eunuch. Li Sanjian muttered in his heart, "It's not a place where I don't live."

Li Sanjian completely didn't understand why this world pays so much attention to etiquette. He would rather starve to death, die of poverty or exhaustion than forget etiquette...

Can etiquette be eaten as a meal?

"Thank you for your hard work." Su Shi finally showed a smile on his face.

"What does the master say? This is what the disciples should be divided on." Li Sanjian said.

Su Shi nodded after hearing this, "What are Jian'er's plans for the future?"

Planning? Su Shi suddenly asked about this, but Li Sanjian didn't know how to answer for a while?

Li Sanjian's plan was to take the imperial examinations and get rid of his poverty at home, and even get rid of his identity as a deceased person, but for a moment, Li Sanjian didn't know how to express his thoughts to Su Shi.

"Students are willing to serve their mentors in this life." Li Sanjian said after thinking about it.

Li Sanjian knew that Su Shi had always been worried that he was not steady enough and was free, so Li Sanjian was disheartened at this time...

"Tell the truth." Su Shi said.

After Su Shi said that, he couldn't help but smile, but because Li Sanjian lowered his head and answered, he did not see Su Shi's smile.

"This... the disciple wants to leave this place..." Li Sanjian then stammered.

"How to leave?" Su Shi continued to ask.

Su Shi and Li Sanjian have not had a short time to master and apprenticeship. How can they not understand Li Sanjian’s intention? Li Sanjian studied diligently just to have the opportunity to be on the list in the future.

Li Sanjian lifted up after hearing this

He looked at Su Shi and replied, "The disciples have no power to tie up a chicken, only...there is only the way to tribute the tribute."

"Imperial Examination?" Su Shi said with a twisted finger and said, "Do you think tribute is an easy task? Just because of your little literary talent? Do you know how many scholars in the world want to jump into the dragon gate? Do you know how many people in the world can't get through this obstacle for their whole life?"

"Although the disciple is dull, he understands the truth that no one has asked under the window for ten years. Only when he understands the hardships in the endurance can he be the one among the people. However, no matter what, the disciple has to try it. Even if he gets bleeding, the disciple is willing to try it." Li Sanjian replied calmly.

"Cai" Su Shi had not answered yet, and Zhang Zhong praised: "People should have some ambition, so that they may achieve something in the future."

Su Shi glared at Zhang Zhong and whispered to Li Sanjian: "Jian'er, the road to the imperial examination is a bumpy road, a thorny road. Even if you can get a title at the top of the list, the same is true for the career path. How many heroes in this world have fallen on this road. Are you still willing to give it a try?"

"The disciple is willing." Li Sanjian replied without hesitation.

Apart from the path of studying, Li Sanjian could not think of any other path.

For the sake of his mother, Li Sanjian also wanted to embark on this path, and Li Sanjian said in his heart.

After hearing this, Su Shi looked at Li Sanjian for a moment and said, "You go..."

Li Sanjian was stunned when he heard this and asked quickly: "Master, what do you mean? Where did you ask your disciple to go?"

"Where can I go when I go out to study?" Su Shi replied.

"Going out to study?" Li Sanjian said in surprise: "The saint said that his parents are here, not traveling far away. His mentor and his disciples are alive, so he really can't go out."

Li Sanjian didn't know anything else, but he knew that Su Shi's literary talent was rarely matched by anyone in this world. In this way, do you still need to go out to study?

"Haha" Su Shi smiled and said, "The sage also said that he must have a good time when traveling. If you don't go out to study, how can you learn from the strengths of a hundred schools of thought? How can you achieve success in your studies? As for your mother, I will let Guoer take care of you, so don't worry."

"This..." Li Sanjian was still hesitant when he heard this. He was so cute that he went out to study at less than fifteen years old, and he might die on the way...

The most important thing is that my family is poor, so how can I have extra money to spend on studying abroad? Maybe I will starve to death halfway through the road shortly after I go out...

At the same time, for poor families like Li Sanjian, there are no horse-drawn carts or donkey carts at all, and they are walking on two legs. The roads in Qiongtai and Lingnan are so difficult to travel, and the miasma epidemic is everywhere, how can you go out to study?

No, even if you beat him to death, you can't go out. Li Sanjian thought to himself, is Su Shi such a cruel person? Li Sanjian had quite a complaint about Su Shi at this time.

...........

"This child is still young, why are you doing this?" Zhang Zhong asked after Li Sanjian left.

Su Shi replied after hearing this: "I have already said the reason. It is not a long-term way to show his sharpness. Let him go out and suffer some setbacks and understand the difficulties of this world. This is also a good thing for him."

"With that being said, he is still a child after all. I heard that he was a dementia and had never traveled far away. If he was halfway up... wouldn't it be a pity?" Zhang Zhong shook his head and asked.
