Not long after, Li Dao arrived outside a large mansion.
In the past, he had heard that the owner of the house was an official of the imperial court. He had been exiled here and had become a teacher.
Because the academy examinations were approaching, there were more young people coming and going in the private school.
"Li Dao."
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Li Dao heard someone calling him from the side.
He turned around and saw that it was a few students from the private school.
"Li Dao, did you hear? That kid from the Sun family was beheaded.”
A classmate came up and whispered.
"Sun family? Are you talking about Sun De?"
Li Dao thought of a name.
"It's him. That kid committed a crime and escaped from Pingan County. He was caught not long ago. The constables intervened and found that the kid harmed many girls on his way to escape.”
The student said excitedly.
"Such a despicable person deserves to die.”
A few people at the side echoed.
Hearing that Sun De had been beheaded, Li Dao felt a little happy.
When Sun De was still in the private school, he had once harassed Xu Yue 'er and even dared to climb the wall in the middle of the night.
After Li Dao found out, he broke one of his legs.
If Xu Yue 'er did not want Li Dao to die, Sun De would have been beaten to death on the spot.
Speaking of which, it was a good thing. Ever since Sun De was beaten up, those who harbored evil intentions did not dare to continue harassing Xu Yue 'er.
"Alright, so what if he's dead? Let's take care of ourselves first. You have to know that the Academy Examination is in a few days.”
Hearing this, the few of them panicked.
"Yes, yes, yes. I still have to go read books. I hope that this will be a good start.”
"Me too. If I don't get in, I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death by my father.”
“......”
The few of them waved their hands and quickly left.
However, before they left, they were still discussing the previous topic.
"After Sun De's death, things didn't seem to be peaceful. The beheading officer died suddenly when he returned home.”
Hearing this, Li Dao stopped in his tracks.
After thinking for a while, he shook his head and continued walking into the courtyard.
Two hours later.
Li Dao walked out of the library, his face filled with disappointment.
He was thinking too much. How could there be any information about the cultivation world in the private school?
"Looks like I have to go out more.”
Pingan County was still too small for him.
The Great Qin Empire had 72 prefectures, and he was under the Jinling Prefecture.
There were dozens of counties under the prefecture.
He hadn't even gone all the way to Pingan County, so he naturally didn't have much information.
"Let's go home first."
......
An hour later.
When Li Dao returned home, Xu Yue 'er had already started cooking.
"I'm back."
Xu Yue 'er wiped the dust off her forehead and walked out with a gentle smile.
"Yes."
"Little Uncle, read a book first. Dinner will be ready soon.”
After greeting her, Xu Yue 'er returned to the kitchen.
Li Dao sighed helplessly. He also wanted to help.
But every time, he would be chased out by his sister-in-law, making him unable to use his good skills.
Seeing this, he could only return to his room to read.
In the afternoon, after dinner, Li Dao returned to his room to read.
The main reason was that there was no entertainment in this world. The commoners were either working or on their way to work.
Soon, night fell.
"Little Uncle, I'm here to add oil to your tank.”
The door opened and Xu Yue 'er walked in with an oil lamp.
Looking at Li Dao, who was reading hard, she revealed a gratified smile.
She left carefully after filling the oil, afraid that she would disturb Li Dao.
Li Dao was already used to this.
Ever since he was young, he had been like a cripple. His family had taken care of him.
His parents, brother, and sister-in-law were all meticulous.
She was just short of feeding him food. He didn't have to do anything except study.
It had only gotten better in recent years.
Li Dao finally understood why it was said that scholars were useless.
Because other than reading, the scholar really did not know anything else.
She also understood why some people would spend their entire lives taking the exam, and their families would also support them for their entire lives.
He also understood why people committed suicide when they failed the exam.
The pressure on the scholars in this world was much greater than the college entrance examination students in his previous life.
"This is the only book left. I've almost memorized it.”
Li Dao patiently lowered his head and continued reading.
To be honest, he really didn't know what to do with the ancient language. He couldn't understand it.
However, even though he couldn't read it, he knew how to memorize it.
After his rebirth, his memory had greatly increased, and he could almost remember everything he saw. Now, he was almost out of sight of the books in the private school.
If he still couldn't get into the Elementary Scholar exam, he could just commit suicide on the spot.
......
At night, the stars were shining and the moon was bright.
Li Dao was also a little sleepy after memorizing the last book.
Just as she was about to turn off the lights and go to sleep, a gust of wind suddenly blew in from the window, and the lights went out by themselves.
"Hmm?"
Li Dao's sleepiness suddenly disappeared and he looked out the window.
"Ah!"
At this moment, Xu Yue 'er's exclamation rang out in the courtyard.
"Not good!"
In a hurry, Li Dao smashed the door and rushed out.
At this moment, Xu Yue 'er's room door was opened.
She ran out in panic, wearing only a thin white inner lining.
"Little Uncle."
When she saw Li Dao, her face lit up and she hurriedly ran over.
However, he quickly thought of something and revealed a panicked expression.
"Little uncle, run quickly. There's a ghost!”
With that, he dragged Li Dao to the door.
However, no matter how hard she pulled, she could not open the door.
Immediately, a look of despair appeared in her eyes.
"Little Uncle!"
Xu Yue 'er looked at Li Dao with red eyes.
"It's cold, don't catch a cold."
Li Dao could not help but pat his sister-in-law's head. He took off his coat and put it on Xu Yue 'er.
As for whether he could open the door, he did not care.
He was more concerned about who had scared his sister-in-law.
"Little lady, why are you running? You were lucky back then, so how can I let you run away now?”
"You really make my heart ache. I can't forget you even after turning into a ghost.”
At this moment, a cold and sharp voice sounded.
Li Dao turned around and saw a shadow walking out of Xu Yue 'er's room.
His body was still wrapped in a layer of black aura.
There was an obvious crack on his neck, making him look hideous and terrifying.
"Sun De?"
Li Dao frowned when he saw the other party.
During the day, he had already heard that Sun De had been beheaded. That meant that the person in front of him was a ghost.
"Li Dao?"
Sun De's eyes lit up when he saw Li Dao, and he revealed a fanatical look of joy.
"You're here too? That's great. I'll pay you back a hundredfold for breaking my leg back then.”
"Not only that, don't you care about your sister-in-law very much? Then I'll humiliate him in front of you.”
Sun De's expression was dark as he laughed wildly.
Hearing this, Li Dao's eyes were filled with ruthlessness.
"Little Uncle!"
Xu Yue 'er tugged at Li Dao's sleeve in fear.
She was not afraid of death. She had almost died once back then. What she was afraid of was that Li Dao would be hurt.
"Don't worry."
Li Dao caressed Xu Yue 'er's hair and said," Sister-in-law, please turn around. Wait for me to call you before you turn around."”
"Yes."
Although she did not know why, Xu Yue 'er still turned around obediently.
She had complete trust in her little uncle.
Xu Yue 'er turned her back to him. Li Dao took a deep breath and turned to look at Sun De's ghost.
A violent aura suddenly burst forth.
His originally handsome face had disappeared, replaced by endless madness in his eyes.
The more obedient Li Dao was in front of Xu Yue 'er, the more violent he was in his heart.
However, in order to take care of Xu Yue 'er's feelings, he had no choice but to hide the ruthlessness in his heart.
Otherwise, those who gossiped would have long been crippled by him.
Now, he finally had a target to vent his anger on.
As for whether or not he could win, he had never thought about it.
The Great Strength Vajra Palm was a Buddhist martial art after all. It should not be a problem for it to restrain ghosts, right?
