Chapter 1 Accidental crossing
A ray of setting sun shines on the mossy walls. In the small yard, weeds grow in clusters in the east and west, and a dead tree falls beside the well.
Cheng Mo sat under the eaves, looked up at the moss on the wall, and looked down at the weeds on the ground, with a complex expression.
Before yesterday, he was the chairman of a listed company. He held a board meeting in a luxuriously decorated conference room to vote on whether to acquire another company. Halfway through the meeting, he couldn't breathe, fainted, opened his eyes again, but he got here.
He is about seventeen or eighteen years old now, and his name is Cheng Mo. He is handsome and has a long figure. He lives alone in this small courtyard.
After waking up, Cheng Mo was still uneasy in his movements. He barely looked at the two wing rooms and sat down on the spot. This was the Wu Dynasty, which was similar to the Han Dynasty, and the chair had not yet appeared.
A group of children were playing hide-and-seek outside the wooden door that opened. One child ran too fast and hit the old man in silk shirt walking. The old man scolded the child and looked at Cheng Mo from a distance, with a gloomy face.
The old man is Huichang Bo and the head of the Cheng clan. He came here once last night and was very good at training Cheng Mo. After the training, he left.
Huichang Bo carried a fish weighing 7 or 80 taels in his hand. He sat lazily under the corridor from afar. He felt angry and wanted to turn around and leave. This kid was lazy and had sex, and he deserved to starve to death.
Cheng Mo also saw the fish that was stabbed with grass flies. He only found half a tank of rice in the tank, without meat or vegetables. He cooked half a pot of porridge at noon, and didn't even have pickles to eat, so he could only eat white porridge.
Seeing that the boy sitting on the ground with his hands and feet open, he couldn't get up for a long time. He probably saw him coming and wanted to come out. He still felt soft, so he walked a few steps, entered the courtyard, and said, "Sit down."
Seeing that he was hesitant, Cheng Mo hurriedly seemed to be unable to get up. He heard that he said this, and he was not polite. He laughed twice and sat down again.
"If you sit or not, you don't stand or stand, where are you doing big things?" Huichang Bo put down the fish and started to train him: "How many times have you told you, don't gamble! Don't gamble! You just don't listen. If you lose, sell the land and pay back the debt. So what if you win? If you can't get the money, you'll be beaten? Money 2 is a gangster, who specializes in setting up gambling games to cheat people of money."
According to Huichang Bo, Cheng Mo was fond of gambling and lost all the two accumulated in the yard that his father had accumulated during his lifetime, so he had to move to this yard. In this way, he couldn't get rid of the problem of gambling. He rarely won once a few days ago and won. Qian Er, who was running a casino, gathered a group of people to knock him out and woke up yesterday.
Cheng Mo knew that the gambling person was no longer there.
"Do you think it's easy for me to get you into the Yulin Guard? You don't think about how many favors I have entrusted, how many ways I have walked, and how much money I have spent! You're good, you've gambled all day and didn't go to the palace to work. Lord Liu has looked for me several times. If this continues, I can't protect you." Huichang said with a grudge.
The Yulin Guard was built by Emperor Wu. It was originally named Jianzhang Yingqi, but later changed to Yulin, which means it is the wings of the country, and it is like the prosperity of the forest. It is a personal army commanded and dispatched by the emperor himself, and its status is much higher than that of other imperial guards. Those who enter the Yulin Guard are all the children of nobles.
The ancestors of Huichang were named Count by Taizu, and it was no longer as good as before when they passed on to his generation. It was indeed costing him a lot of money to send Cheng Mo to the Yulin Guard. The Lord Liu he mentioned was Liu Taofu, the guard in charge of the Yulin Guard.
When you come to this world unexpectedly, you have to find a way to survive. Cheng Mo spent his hard work in building a business empire in his previous life and died young at less than 40 years old. It is a surprise to have an easy job now.
"What the clan said is that you will definitely change your mind in the future and never step into the casino." Cheng Mo immediately expressed his opinion.
Huichang Bo was stunned, looked Cheng Mo up and down, and said disbelief: "You kid is so easy to talk to? You want to cheat money from me again, right? Let me tell you, there is no door!"
Cheng Mo didn't argue, and smiled slightly, saying, "The clan uncle is joking."
Huichang Bo recited for a long time and did not return until dark.
On the fourth day, Cheng Mo was able to move freely, so he pulled out the weeds in the yard, split the dead trees as thick as bowls as firewood, and cleaned them inside and out. Although the yard was simple, it looked neat.
Cheng Mo took a long time to tie his hair, put his clothes from this era neatly, and walked out of the wood door. This was the first time he walked out of the wood door since he arrived here. The alley was very clean, and one or two smiling faces popped out from time to time and greet Cheng Mo.
When he walked out of the alley and came to the main road, he saw a high-walled courtyard with crowds of people, and a prosperous scene. Cheng Mo looked while walking, and unknowingly walked to the three-way intersection. He followed the crowd to the intersection west. He had just taken two steps, a colorful glass canopy green curtain carriage drove over from the opposite side. The crowd quickly avoided the side of the road. A seven or eight-year-old child reacted slowly and was about to be hit by the carriage.
Cheng Mo rushed up and picked up the child.
The horse stood up with a long neighing sound. The hooves as thick as a bowl were less than half a foot above Cheng Mo's head, and a low scream came from the carriage.
The shocked coachman angrily scolded Cheng Mo: "You are looking for death!"
If he hadn't been quick-witted, the horse would have stepped on the young man in front of him into a paste. This man was not afraid of death, but he would have been afraid that his girl would have blamed him.
Cheng Mo calmly held the child away from the horse's hooves. Looking back, the guards behind the carriage had already guarded the carriage. The half-standing carriage had been helped. Some people lifted the curtains and some people clasped their fists and said something.
Several guards surrounded him, unsheathed his sword, and looked angry.
The frightened child started to cry at this time. Cheng Mo put down his hand, glared at several guards, and said, "Who are you? Why do you ride horses in the downtown area?"
This is no different from driving a Rolls-Royce around in dense crowds on the streets of modern cities. In this way, it is really good to dare to look at him.
The guard standing opposite him sneered and said, "You are blind and don't look at the signs on the carriage. Can you get in the way for my girl to travel?"
Cheng Mo had just arrived, but he didn't know what the sign on the side of the carriage represented? Even if he knew, he didn't react. He had seen the leaders of the country in his previous life, but was he still afraid of a girl?
The guard did not see the expected respect and was very dissatisfied. He drew out his waist knife and pointed at Cheng Mo's face.
Cheng Mo pointed to a girl wearing a pink big sleeved glutinous dress with a delicate skin that was getting off the carriage and said, "Is this your girl?"
The girl is so beautiful. He has seen many beauties in his previous life and has had ambiguous relationships with several celebrities. However, no one is as beautiful as the girl in front of him, and no one is as outstanding as her. She stood there, as glorious as a peony, and people dare not look at her.
She frowned her beautiful eyebrows and looked at Cheng Mo.
The two of them met in the air, and the girl frowned, looking at Cheng Mo without fear, very displeased.
