Chapter 22: The Plague
The world is undecided, and it is already eventful. Emperor Qia Yanwu succeeded to the throne and pursued the Shangqiu reform, but the result is unknown, this world-renowned Mr. Shang is actually an unscrupulous charlatan, not to mention the hundred schools of thought, the royal Taoist theory, even the surnames of the hundred families, the thousands of dialects are not read. But the family gave birth to a good physique, but it was coveted by Emperor Wu and his mother Min Bazi, and he entered the palace as a fake eunuch for the official.
Emperor Wu traveled one day, saw a woman with a mole on her forehead, and responded to the omen of her lover in her dream, so she immediately couldn't stop her sexual impulse, accepted the concubine, and gave her the number Lan. Lan Guifei's family is poor, and the three generations of her ancestors are doing things like fighting and touching gold, so when she was rich for a while, she suffered for three lifetimes, and since her grandfather can remember, the men in the family have not worn a pair of pants that do not leak.
Every time Emperor Wu thought of this, he couldn't help but feel bitter and hateful. It is also said that Shangqiu is worthy of being a capable minister who rules the world and a traitor in troubled times. Knowing the way of the emperor, Mao Sui recommended himself, and with his three-inch tongue, he sold the dog skin plaster of Mr. Storyteller under the overpass in front of hundreds of civil and military officials. He sent Yaxing, but he didn't expect Emperor Wu Yaxing to be even bigger, thinking that the reason why Dayan was poor and weak was due to the favor of his relatives by the first emperor, and this dynasty should change the regulations and favor the eunuchs instead.
So, an edict cut down all the uncles, maternal uncles, and seven uncles and grandfathers who had a few eight-pole and a hand, and said to Shangqiu:
"First rich a small crowd, then rich a public, you don't have to be a eunuch, you know all the things under the crotch of your little rabbit cub, now you will change according to your law!"
Shangqiu received the order, since then, Emperor Wu followed the example of the princes of the beacon fire, lived in the deep palace for many years, and no longer held the power, naturally thought that the country and the people were safe, and the prime minister was able to do things, there was no disaster to relieve, and there was no bandit to hang, and there was no war to fight, and an emperor was only left with sex and life. However, the emperor is the emperor after all, and sex and life can also make a big mess that shocks the society.
First of all, the queen was old and decrepit, her physiology could not be appeased, she had accumulated depression for many years, and she had early menopause, so she actually proposed to abolish the concubine. Unexpectedly, the concubine was even more powerful, not only did she seduce the emperor to linger, but she also indirectly had three legs with the prime minister, Da Sima, and the crown prince at the same time. The four men always thought that their women were bullied, which was tolerable or unbearable, and the court agreed to beat the queen to death with a stick and set up Concubine Lan instead.
As soon as the news came out, the queen's family was not happy, and if you have a daughter, you are wasted, even if you go to the cold palace to serve the palace bucket, why do you have to be killed? It happened that the prince of Qin State received a secret report that Lan Guifei was beautiful, and the young lady of the Nanban was so hot that he hated the princess who was flirting with him at the moment, and sent a petition to his father, vowing to avenge his sister.
Thousands of miles of tigers are flocked, thousands of miles of wolves are rampant, Dayan is the country of projectiles, why should it take a year and a half to calm down. By the time Emperor Yan Wu found out that the Qin army was approaching the city of Jidu, it was already early and it was too late to regret it.
The prime minister of the dog day took his mother and his concubine and fled.
A generation of emperors, although they have no grand ambitions, know that the king dies and the Son of Heaven guards the country, and he leads the remnants of the army to live and die with Dayan.
Xu is courage to break the cauldron moved the heavens, after a night of downpour, the Qin army was in civil strife, and a plague was born, but a thousand people died in a few days. Dayan was freed......
At this time, it has been more than a month since the Qin army's squad returned to the dynasty, Heyang City has run out of food, the victims have been displaced, and it is a mess, and tens of thousands of homeless people have come to the gate of Shenxiao Palace, and the thousand-year-old foundation is in jeopardy.
In the Wuji Palace, Liuyun's gaze swept over everyone, and he said solemnly:
"King Qin issued an order to send the crown prince to Shenxiao Palace to preside over the Nine Dragons two months later, hoping to use the joy of Longhu Mountain to rush this plague. ”
Song Dayi said:
"If there is a disaster, we will send food, what is the matter with our Shenxiao Palace, isn't this taking off your pants and farting?"
Ke Zhenwei disagreed, shook his head and said:
"Senior Brother Song, what you think is too simple, it's not that there is no grain in the treasury, but that the grain is being distributed now, the people are definitely not satisfied, and they wish that the court would issue silver, otherwise, it will arouse the anger of the people, and millions of people will jump to their feet and scold the street, how can the emperor bear it?"
The second monk of Song Dayi was puzzled and asked:
"And what do you mean?"
Ke Zhen sneered:
"When hundreds of thousands of people starve to death, the court will sow food, and the people will naturally be grateful to Dade as his parents. ”
Song Dayi nodded and said yes, the power of the emperor's family should be played like this in the future.
Liuyun nodded, objective facts, objective statements, he naturally didn't want to say anything, and said with an embarrassed smile:
"It's just that now that the plague has spread outside the Shenxiao Palace, how can this be good?"
Everyone was worried, and at this time, Feng Tianyang touched his goatee and said melancholy:
"If the palace door is not opened, the hearts of the people will be lost; In the face of principle and reality, the contradiction is a mess. ”
"That's on!"
Song Dayi said decisively.
"Do you want to have sores on the top of your head and pus on your buttocks?"
Feng Tianyang retorted.
"That doesn't open?"
Song Dayi hesitated again.
Kuxin sneered, looked at him cowardly and said:
"Then my generation, the world, the fearless spirit of Pudu sentient beings has become an empty word?"
Everyone was speechless for a moment, and suddenly, a hunchbacked figure came from behind the hall, looked at them and sneered:
"Just this bit of, I have to discuss it for so long, so Lao Tzu asked you, what kind of Tao do people still cultivate when they die, and what scriptures do they recite?"
Everyone fixed their eyes and saw that it was no cliff, and the five people nodded one after another, expressing their unanimous agreement with the truth of the uncle's ancestor, fearless and fearless, and relieving the world was originally a matter of recreation when you were full of food and drink, and now you can't save your own life, what is the spirit of my Tao is the floating clouds, starving to death and starving, and the thousand-year-old foundation of the Shenxiao Palace is a big thing, and the infamy you bear is still too late to explain to the Sanqing Patriarch when you go to heaven in the future.
"I heard that the plague spread to the Chu State two days ago, and more than half of the disciples of the Vajra Sect were killed and injured, and it seems that those old bald donkeys will not be able to jump for a few days. ”
Feng Tianyang looked at everyone with a smile.
Song Dayi snorted coldly, he had never had a good impression of those monks who had shaved their hair and had a little bit engraved on their heads, so he couldn't help but sneer and said:
"It's best to die, without these monks, we righteous people can still be much purer. ”
Everyone nodded in agreement, but Liuyun frowned slightly, and said:
"Senior Brother Song, Hugh has to talk nonsense, Buddhism and Taoism are one, and the same qi is connected, now Buddhism is in trouble, how can we Taoists do things and don't care, come to people......"
He called, and saw a half-sized boy walking in front of the hall, Liuyun sighed and ordered:
"Pass me an edict, a copy of the resignation, and send a flying pigeon to the King Kong Gate. ”
The boy looked up and asked:
"What did the master write?"
Liuyun smiled slightly, and said lightly:
"Let's just say that the disciples of Buddhism are not afraid of hardships and dangers, work hard and make high achievements, set an example for my righteous path, and the whole Shenxiao Palace admires them to the fullest, and gives them eternal spiritual support!"
Everyone was dumbfounded for a while, and they all showed an expression that they wanted to laugh but didn't dare, looking at Liuyun, unexpectedly, he was closing the closing ceremony and was silent.
"Returning to the master, it's just that there were originally two pigeons in the Wuji Palace, but now they are gone. ”
The child was puzzled for a while.
"Bastard! Daomen is a clean place, can't you let the pigeon stew and eat it?"
Ke Zhen glared evilly and shouted angrily.
The boy was frightened, and hurriedly bowed down and explained:
"Two days ago, Uncle Shi said that he was weak and wanted to eat pigeon soup by name, so the disciple was ......"
Ke Zhen's evil face was strange for a while, and he turned to look at Wuyazi, only to see that the latter was instantly settled, obviously with a lofty but dignified look.
"That's it!"
Liuyun waved his hand and ordered to go out.
Just when everyone was secretly proud and bitter, they suddenly heard a loud "bang" outside the palace gate.
Everyone unanimously said:
"It's over, it's over, someone starves to death, someone hits the door, it hurts!"
Before the words were finished, another earth-shattering bang followed.
The six people looked at each other and exclaimed:
"Dead, dead!"
At this time, there was a loudest sound in history.
The big guy's face suddenly relaxed:
"Not dead yet!"
Song Dayi couldn't help but burst into tears and sighed:
"I'm afraid I'm going to smash all the brains and seeds with this force, how hungry I have to be!"
Liuyun also softened his heart in an instant, and said:
"Immeasurable Tianzun, although this is a fierce general, but he is also a talent, open the palace door quickly, and rescue him first!"
The big guys unanimously agreed, but they struggled with who would open the door.
Ke Zhen shook his head evilly and said:
"My face is too fierce, and when I went out, I thought that Shenxiao Palace would kill people if I couldn't save people!"
Dry Heart Road:
"I've just changed my clothes, so don't bother to wash them. ”
The wind is simple, and the scoundrel says:
"Before going out, I calculated a hexagram, and it is not appropriate to see the disaster of blood and light. ”
Everyone said "Huh", there was no cliff fluttering, the wind was light, and said:
"I'm the highest, so I can't get my turn. ”
When it came to Song Dayi, he was speechless for a while, he reacted the slowest, he couldn't say what he should say, and he didn't say it when he grabbed it. The other five people all showed a malicious smile on their faces and said:
"There you go!"
Song Dayi was desperate and had no countermeasures, so he had to straighten his short and fat body and step out of the Wuji Palace.
The five of them followed, stopping to watch. Just as Song Dayi's face was solemn, he slowly opened the palace door.
In an instant, each of the five people heard a voice:
"The last few times the stone was too small, it was useless to be bigger than the other, so I simply smashed it with the biggest one. ”
Song Dayi greeted him with the most kind smile.
Then there was chaos, the disciples of Wuji Hall hurriedly pushed the palace gate shut, Song Dayi fell to the ground with a bang, and for a while, thousands of hungry big hands shook in front of people's eyes. So much so that everyone forgot the short and fat figure of Song Dayi lying on the ground, and after a long time, the fat man got up slowly, not dead, but spit out a pool of bloody broken teeth from his mouth.
The five of them were frightened for a while, and they all pretended to be unconcerned about themselves, turned around and went back to the hall, and then they said to my immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, there were countless refugees outside, and the question of whether the palace door was open or not was very entangled.
