The scholar and the private salt are indeed not related. In Zhu Da's memory, scholars are simply heavenly people in everyone's heart. Although there is only one old boy in Baibao Village and the surrounding villages, most of them have met scholars, but everyone thinks that they are the first level of higher than anything else.

Studying can bring honor to the family, make a fortune, and marry a beautiful wife and concubine. As long as you study in the imperial examination, all this is no problem. As long as you have a reputation in the imperial examination, even if you are a scholar, you will be admired and flattered.

Datong is a border town in the military region, and military generals naturally account for the majority. They eat and drink delicious food and drink on weekdays and show off their power, which are all military officers and personal guards. This is something that everyone really sees. Even so, everyone still envies scholars. In terms of closed places like Baibao Village, people say the word "literary nobles and martial arts are cheap".

It is said that when a military general meets civil servants of the same level, they need to meet at the lower level. It is said that it is not a lower level of etiquette. Moreover, being a civil servant does not have to be beaten to death or practice hard. It is so comfortable and enjoys making money. It can also call the generals and the military personnel around. Of course, it is a civil noble and martial arts inferior.

Although the scholar only has a few privileges of "not kneeling when he sees an official" and "exempt taxes", God knows whether there are any teachers among his teachers in the same year. God knows that he is a scholar now, will he be a Jinshi in the future, and will he be a senior official in one party, so the little scholar must be polite in all aspects.

Datong is a military town with many martial artists and few literati, but few literati are just the result of "scarcity is precious", and its status has been raised. The status of Qin Xiucai can be imagined.

There is another ridiculous thing. Military households in the garrison never expect their children to practice martial arts and achieve merit. Instead, they hope that their children will follow the path of imperial examinations to glorify their ancestors. However, the poor cannot afford to read, and many people do not have the talent to study. After all, compulsory education and compulsory education can only be achieved by idealists in the ideal era, and the people do not think it is good for them, but they think it is unnecessary.

Xiang Bo said a few casually, and Zhu Da thought a lot, but after thinking about it, he let it go. Qin Xiucai was already considered a noble person in Datong Zuowei and Huairen County. At least he was a gentry with status in Zhengjiaji. Such a pure scholar is most taboo to have something to do with humble things like private salt, and there is definitely no connection.

Before leaving the door, Zhu Da put the sleeping Qin Qin into Xiang Bo's basket. The girl slept very heavily and was not awakened. Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun sent Qin Qin back to their homes and asked their mother to take care of her. Seeing that her son suddenly brought back a five-year-old girl, Zhu Wangshi was shocked. After hearing his son's explanation, he felt relieved after picking it up halfway. Of course, Zhu Da would not tell his mother about murder.

When I returned to Xiang Bo's house, I found that the seized knife had been wrapped in a cloth strip by Xiang Bo, and the handle and thigh had been adjusted.

"This group of bandits is really a killer. They have to fight with swords and guns when they go into battle, but they have to use this ragged look. But it's good that they still have to use real guys to practice swords, otherwise they will not be able to grasp the strength on their bodies and hands." Xiang Bo said a few words.

When Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun returned to the Xiang family, Xiang Bo had already sorted out all the postures he wanted, digging tools for digging holes and fire, but the knife he had processed after seizure did not give Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun, but instead made two sharpened six-foot wooden guns.

"You can use this to help." A brief explanation.

The three men and women of old and young men left the village. Seeing the sun was about to set, the village was more lively. The villagers who were on duty at night started to move. Many people saw the three of them. Some of them smiled and some bowed their heads and said nothing. After greeting, they talked the most. They thought that "unreasonable" actions of private salt dealers, and they felt that "this should be done."

After leaving the village a little further, Xiang Bo began to ask about the details of the riverside, how the bandits appeared, the battle process, and the torture said, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun's answers one by one, and finally Zhu Da was talking alone because he spoke clearly and organizedly, and Zhu Da didn't feel bored. He knew Xiang Bo was confirming, for fear that the boy would distort the truth after being stimulated.

In fact, there are not many questions about the battle. The most common ones are where the bandits' nest is, and the bandits said something else, but when they talk about these, they mainly listened and commented a lot when they talked about the battle.

"You are reluctant to let you practice knife every day. You know the benefits this time!" This is what Zhou Qingyun said. It is very important that he stabbed the bandits' ribs in the first stroke and beat them on the face of the next few strokes.

Hearing Zhu Da’s description of the battle, Xiang Bo nodded and praised a few words: "You are born to be a martial arts practitioner. Other children of this age are already stupid when they encounter such a scene. You still know how to deal with it, and you dare to take action when you see blood. Old man, I vomited for a few days when I saw blood for the first time, but you were fine."

While he was telling, Zhu Da suddenly felt that his eyes were full of blood, his nose was full of fishy smell, and the wetness of the wiped blood reappeared in his palm. At this time, Zhu Da was extremely nauseous, his chest and abdomen were churning, and he didn't bother talking to Xiang Bo. He covered his mouth and ran for two steps, unable to bear it anymore, and vomited directly.

This vomiting turned out to be dark, almost spitting out the things in my stomach, and I looked a little exhausted. Zhou Qingyun widened his eyes, a smile appeared on Xiang Bo's face, shook his head and said, "Here's just like a child. I thought you had killed someone with that wild Taoist before."

Zhu Da grabbed a few handfuls of hay and wiped his mouth and hands. He walked back to his uncle again, followed him in a depressed manner and suddenly asked, "Master, I haven't asked the name of the thief, I don't know where he is, and whether there are relatives at home..."

"Have the thief asked you two parents and family?" Xiang Bo answered coldly.

Of course, Zhu Da understood this truth, but the first time he killed someone, and so close contact, the shock, the self-blame and guilt were not something he could not think of if he understood the truth. He had imagined the situation and emotions of his murder, but he did not expect that it would be so sudden that it caught people off guard.

Xiang Bo looked at Zhu Da and shook his head, saying in a muffled voice: "When the thief touches your parents and family, it is better to die than life. It is not enough to die if you die, but you will also implicate your parents and fellow villagers..."

After saying a few words, seeing that Zhu Da's face was still bad, Xiang Bo smiled, changed his tone and said gently, "This is a trivial matter, just wait until you get used to it."

There was nothing to say for a moment, and everyone walked forward silently. On the contrary, Zhou Qingyun had no idea after vomiting on the spot. He wanted to get close to tease Zhu Da several times, but Xiang Bohu stared back with a face.

When he was about to reach the river, Zhu Da asked, "Master, you must report the official to the bandits' lair as soon as possible. This group of bandits do not follow the rules, but may not be unaware of it. If this person does not go back for a day or two, it will definitely alarm them. It will be difficult to find them at that time. If there is any, we will also be in trouble."

"If you can't report to the officials, you will be detained and questioned first because of the habit of doing things. If they want to embezzle the reward, it is hard to say whether they can come out alive." Xiang Bo replied disdainfully.

After saying this, Xiang Bo stopped and solemnly reminded Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun: "For any matter that is touched with the word "official", you must be careful, otherwise even the belt and flesh will be swallowed."

"Xiang Bo, are the men in the garrison station considered officials? I heard that only the places outside the garrison station have officials." Zhou Qingyun asked hurriedly.

"Idiot, the one in the ward station is also an official, and it is not a good product!"

"Master, then don't we report this matter?"

"If you want to report, this group of people stared at the salt vendors and attacked them. How could they not report? If you don't look for the officials, it's not that no one will look for them!"

When they arrived by the river, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun pointed to the place where the burial was buried. Xiang Bo did not hesitate at all and directly used tools to dig. Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun were not discomfort anymore and went up to help.

It was very shallow when buried, and it was not difficult to dig it out. After the person dug it out, Xiang Bo removed the soil and observed it carefully before looking at Zhu Da and said, "What do you want to deal with it?"

This question stunned Zhu Da, and then he understood Xiang Bo's solemn expression. After experiencing one thing one by one, Xiang Bo has already treated himself as an adult, called his master and apprentice, but in fact he regards himself as an adult.

Zhu Da was both surprised and expected about this matter. Since showing his knowledge and courage, as he continued to prove correct and reasonable, both his parents and masters, and adults in the same village would adjust their understanding and treat him as an adult, or even a capable and smart adult.

Regarding the corpse of this thief, the reason why Xiang Bolai was buried was not waiting for the master to make a decision, but thought that if the burial of the deep requires the physical strength of an adult, and the confession he tortured with Zhou Qingyun would use this corpse as a testimony. Now all the goals should be achieved.

"Master, it's best to set fire, but this flat ground is burned with smoke during the day and at night. It's no matter how others notice it. If it's buried deep, it's too eye-catching for us to bring the body into the mountain. It's not safe to bury it around. It's a life. When we are tortured in the next year and the next year, we will be troubled by a little involvement. Then we can't tell that this is a thief." Zhu Da said his own considerations.

In fact, it is not impossible to set fire or bury deeply, but only three people can participate in this matter, and many methods are good but they cannot do it at all.

"...It's better to throw it in the river and let him float downstream." Zhu Da concluded.

Xiang Bo had an impatient look on his face. After Zhu Da finished speaking, he nodded immediately and said, "Okay, you two come here to help!"

This simply made Zhu Da a little stunned. Zhou Qingyun hurriedly said, "Why should he throw it into the river and float on the river, and he will be seen sooner or later."

"What I asked so much, Zhu Da's idea must have his own reason. It's getting dark, hurry up and do it!" Xiang Bo scolded in a muffled voice.

Zhu Da grinned silently, and helped Xiang Bo roll the body to the river with Zhou Qingyun, and then used the wooden gun to push the body into the middle of the river. The excessive bleeding corpse indeed floated and did not sink, and went downstream.

"Who will be by the river at night? When it dawn is dawn, it will float far away. Then God will know where to die and where to throw it down the river." Zhu Da still explained a few words.
