Chapter 4 Like a Cone
The fist is like a hammer, the fist is as strong as a lan, and the fierce fist wind distributes the air in front of him, making the void faintly crazy. The pen, fun, and pavilion www.biquge.info punched out, and the sound of explosion began, which did not come from the low drink in Zhang Fei's mouth, but from Zhang Fei's own qi and blood. Zhang Fei is majestic, as a master, he has amazing blood and qi all over his body. With such a punch, he didn't try his best, but he also used seven or eight points of his strength. Under the blow, the surging of qi and blood naturally produced a muffled thunderous sound.
"What a powerful punch! This Zhang Fei is really amazing, he can actually achieve such an effect with his own strength. In my opinion, the power generated by this punch is not much worse than that of Wang Hao, a veteran who is said to have strengthened his intermediate internal strength. Feeling the power of Zhang Fei's punch, Li Qin's heart sank, and his eyes suddenly narrowed slightly.
As a lone wanderer with rich practical combat experience, he naturally felt the pressure brought to him by Zhang Fei's punch. He knew that Zhang Fei's punch was not something he could bear. After all, the two have a lot of physical differences, but Li Qin's strength is not as strong as Zhang Fei's.
After training, his current physical fitness may be about three times that of ordinary people, but Zhang Fei's strength and qi and blood are five times as strong as ordinary people. In the face of such a huge gap, Li Qin certainly did not dare to take Zhang Fei's fist. In the face of Zhang Fei's straight punch, Li Qin took a small half step back, stood with his feet apart, and cut an arc from top to bottom with his right hand, just blocking the pulse of Zhang Fei's fist, but his left hand was flicked from tens of thousands of bottoms, and the seemingly light but heavy fingertips quickly climbed up against Zhang Fei's arm, but it blocked the follow-up power on Zhang Fei's wrist.
Although such a block was only a matter of moments, Zhang Fei still noticed the changes on his arm. He felt that his follow-up strength could not be sent. The originally strong and powerful fist was gently intercepted by the opponent in the two arc trajectories brought out by the opponent's skimming and skimmed aside. After that, an even more powerful and powerful force came, but it suddenly pushed Zhang Fei backwards a few steps, making his eyes widen all of a sudden.
It's too late. Zhang Fei heard his brother's stop, but he turned around and smiled bitterly, didn't say anything more, just stood aside silently. Just now, he had already tried out something: that kid did have strength, but this strength was not strong compared to himself, at most only half of his own. However, he doesn't have great strength, but he has a strange way of exerting his strength. Zhang Fei couldn't analyze the principle of such a method at once, but he felt very strange about it.
"How?" Zhang Fei retreated, and Guan Yu asked Zhang Fei in a low voice.
"It's weird!" Zhang Fei told Guan Yu about his feelings, and Guan Yu glanced at Li Qin when he heard it, and became more and more interested in him. However, he did not say anything to invite Li Qin to fight after all, because Liu Bei had already strode forward at this time and faced Li Qin. Bowing down and clenching his fists, Liu Bei apologized to Li Qin: "Your Excellency is brave and admired." I don't know your high name, I am willing to treat you with thin wine, and apologize for the third brother's offense to you. ”
"The general is polite. Naturally, I came here to defect to the general. The three generals' actions are just to test whether I have the strength to gain a foothold in the army, which is what should be done, how can I feel guilty because of this? In the face of Liu Bei's polite invitation, Li Qin also replied with jokes, and at the same time reported his identity: "The next surname is Li Mingqin, the character Yuanhua, and the people of Yingchuan have traveled all the way to study here." Because he learned that the Yellow Turban thief was rising, the general had the intention of breaking the thief and reassuring the people, so he came to vote. I am willing to assist the general to break the thief and pacify my Han country as soon as possible. ”
"Hah...... Ambitious. Hearing Li Qin say this, Zhang Fei suddenly laughed, and slapped his big palm on Li Qin's shoulder like a pavement, making a crisp sound, but it looked so abrupt under the gaze of Liu Bei and Guan Yu. Seeing that although Li Qin straightened up, he frowned slightly under Zhang Fei's pat, Liu Bei immediately glared at Zhang Fei reproachfully.
"Hey......" Zhang Fei knew that his current move was too reckless, but he smirked and touched his head with his hand.
Liu Bei, who was speechless, glared at Zhang Fei again, but his face was calm as if nothing happened, and he waved a gesture of invitation with his big sleeves: "This is not a place to talk, please go to the backyard with me." ”
"Good!" Li Qin nodded lightly, and left here with Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, and walked into the retreat in the backyard.
At that moment, Zhang Fei took the wine, divided the dishes and chopsticks, asked the subordinates to hurry up and eat some food, and invited Li Qin to sit down with his brother. Everyone drank and drank a few glasses, and they talked with each other from all over the world.
Liu Bei asked about Li Qin's family history, and Li Qin said that he was a descendant of Li Ying's clan in the former Changle Shaofu. I wanted to go to Yingchuan Xiangcheng, but I found that there were already people there, and I couldn't help but sigh.
“…… Later, I got the help of my uncle and traveled to study the world, but I didn't want to encounter the thieves of Taiping Dao Cholera world, and even Yingchuan's hometown was occupied by them, presumably there was already a river of blood. Li Qin sighed, his face full of inexplicable helplessness.
I only heard him say again: "Since the rise of Guangwu Zhongxing, the imperial court has almost become the world of the family. The emperor was born in the deep palace, grew up in the hands of women, and did not know all kinds of the outside world. And the power of the family not only occupied the imperial court, but also occupied the place, and the resentment of the people had long been condensed to a terrible point. In addition, in recent years, the weather has been bad and disasters have been repeated, but civil unrest has become inevitable. These resentful people are now afraid that they will have to deal with the most brutal means against the powerful and others who will not submit to them. Alas...... These people are really pitiful, pity, pathetic, pity! ”
Li Qin briefly recounted his experience, and then talked about the current Yellow Turban Rebellion. It's just that unlike Liu Bei and others, Li Qin's words mentioned something more profound.
"Are you saying that civil unrest is inevitable today?" Liu Bei was a little shocked when he heard it at first glance. Originally, he thought that Li Qin was just a fierce general, comparable to heroes like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but he didn't want Li Qin to be a learned scholar after Li Ying. Liu Bei felt very novel about Li Qin's various statements, and he wanted to continue to hear about them, so he asked at that time: "Why is this so!" Isn't this the sin of Zhang Jiao alone? ”
"Zhang Jiao? He's just a god with ideals and ambitions, but a little less ability. With the current situation of the Han Dynasty, even if there will be no Yellow Turban Rebellion, there will be some Black Turban Rebellion and Red Turban Rebellion. Zhang Jiao just happened at the right time. All the contradictions were hidden as early as when Emperor Guangwu rebuilt the Han Dynasty, but they only accumulated over time until today. Li Qin nodded and confirmed Liu Bei's guess.
"Why?" Liu Bei asked again.
Li Qin mentioned that he was vaguely aware of it, but in fact, he was aware of it, and all the smart people in the world were aware of it. They vaguely felt that something was wrong with the country, but they thought about it, but they never found out what was wrong with the country. Is it in the emperor? Is it in the officials? Is it a eunuch? Or is it in an anti-thief like Zhang Jiao?
Many people think a lot and have their own opinions. However, no matter what they thought, they didn't dare to blame the root of the current chaos on Emperor Guangwu, who was only a member of the Han Dynasty.
After all, that is the son of Yingtian who recreated the great man. How could he be wrong? When Li Qin said that, not only Liu Bei, but even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei felt incredible.
"You thief bird...... You're not a Yellow Turban thief, so let's talk about it again. Zhang Fei was excited, and stretched out his hand to hit Li Qin.
"Stop!" Liu Bei stopped decisively, he glanced at Li Qin, and his eyes suddenly became much colder: "Your Excellency said this, you must also have your own opinions. I would like to hear from you, and I hope that you will give a convincing reason. ”
, "Haha......" Listening to Liu Bei's words, which seemed to be a little unpleasant, but slightly threatening, Li Qin laughed. Under the gaze of Liu, Guan, and Zhang, he stretched out his index finger, dipped a little wine into the wine glass, and turned a circle on the table.
Li Qin pointed to the circle on the table and said, "This circle can be regarded as the benefit of the whole world. In a certain period, there is a certain number in the world, and if you take more, others will take less. Since the beginning of the Zhou season, the black iron has gradually taken bronze, and the peasants have cultivated more meticulously, harvested more, and the benefits of the world have been greater. Although some people took some more and some people took less, everyone got more than ever. Therefore, the people of the world are still stable.
…… Then the nations were divided and wars frequent, and the population was smaller, and the people who divided the things were fewer. Although there is a cool government of the Qin Dynasty, after my Han Gaozu once again dominates the world, what everyone can share is enough for everyone to live a good life. Everyone is too peaceful, but the demand for the expansion of the whole circle is not so sufficient.
…… In the two hundred years of the former Han Dynasty, the amount of this great circle did not increase much. The Great Circle is still the same size, but the people have become more numerous because of the peace. Everyone has their own needs for survival, and when this need is not satisfied, there will be an outbreak of red eyebrows and green forests. Everyone fought a scuffle, more people died, fewer people died, and then the wise man of Emperor Guangwu survived again.
…… Emperor Guangwu relied on the support of the world's wealthy families to obtain the world. In order to reward these heroes, Emperor Guangwu naturally gave them a lot of preferential treatment. The rules set by Emperor Guangwu were ancestral precepts, and the subsequent sons of heaven naturally followed them one by one, and the power of the wealthy family became stronger and stronger. They gradually occupied the entire court, and relied on the power of the government to obtain the resources of the people, collect slaves, and gather land and property, becoming more and more arrogant. ”
Li Qin pointed to the circle in front of everyone when he said this: "If the world is a big circle, when Emperor Guangwu and the following Ming monarchs, the emperor took one percent of it, the family took forty percent of it, and millions of grass people in the world divided the remaining fifty percent -- everyone was satisfied at that time. However, with the passage of time, up to now, the emperor has less than one percent of this big circle, the eunuchs own one percent here, the family owns sixty percent here, and the tens of millions of people in the world only own two percent here. ”
Li Qin said this, and his fingers were vertical and horizontal on the circle a few times, but the whole circle was cut open. Then Li Qin pointed to the division on the big circle that seemed to be wrong, and said: "More than a hundred years ago, millions of people divided fifty percent, and now tens of millions of people divide two percent. In the absence of the enlargement of this great circle, it is true that each civilian gets less. What they get is not enough to support them to get the most basic life, so they have too much dissatisfaction in their hearts. This dissatisfaction erupted under the temptation of Zhang Jiao at the moment, so it became the current situation. ”
"So that's ......" Hearing Li Qin put the contradiction out so nakedly, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei understood a lot at once.
Although Liu Bei claimed to be the emperor, his family had fallen to the point of weaving mats and selling shoes, so he could naturally be regarded as a commoner. Guan Yu, as a heroic man who avenges his friends, is also a person who comes out of the common people. And Zhang Fei, although his family background is good and he has a small amount of wealth, he can only be regarded as a small commercial landlord at most, and he is still much worse than those top wealthy families who occupy the imperial court. It can be said that the three of them are relatively low and similar in their backgrounds. They naturally empathized with all the things Li Qin said.
"In that case...... So what should we do now? If, according to what you said, sir, the turmoil of the Yellow Turban Army continues, won't it last for several years, and after the world is turned upside down, there will be heroes to clean up the mountains and rivers? After listening to what you Li Qin said, Liu Bei faintly grasped a law from it: "Great chaos, dead people, reunification, redivision of interests, peace in the world, and then population increase, the world is uneasy, chaos again, dead people again...... It's like a ring, connected from end to end. Is it really necessary to die so many people and make a mess to settle the world? ”
"Haha...... It's a thing! But it depends on the general, your ideals. Li Qin laughed and narrowed his eyes slightly.
He knew that his words had already spoken in Liu Bei's heart. After Liu Bei heard his general argument, the positioning of himself in his heart was very different from the original.
"Perhaps, he already sees me as his advisor? Well, it's not impossible. Li Qin thought, and couldn't help but show a smile on his face. This is Li Qin's own satisfactory performance, but in Liu Bei's eyes, it is very unfathomable.
At that moment, Liu Bei was silent, he thought carefully for a long time, but he bowed down and bowed his hand to Li Qinyi: "Sir, I beg Mr. to tell me how to break this ring." The people of the world are innocent, and it is not enough to die so many people in exchange for a temporary peace. Liu Bei was a little excited as he spoke, and his face, which had been calm, showed a bit of sadness.
He meant it from the bottom of his heart. Li Qin felt this, but nodded lightly: "Since that's the case...... Then I'll say it. ”
"Please speak, sir, and listen to your teachings." Liu Bei said that he was another hand to Li Qin. At this moment, he lowered his stature.
