Chapter 13 The local sound is terrifying, and the country is devastated
Daiyu lives in Jinshan Temple, every day by the four families to teach martial arts, these four families originally had a selfishness, thinking that if Daiyu learns some kung fu, they can protect themselves, they can go to fight against the Qing Dynasty side by side with Lin Ruhai, a few people discussed, feel that the first thing to learn should be light skills, a girl, of course, when you meet a bad guy, you have to run first, so Liu Zhenyuan taught internal skills, Xue Guerrilla taught light skills, Jia Yucun taught boxing, Jia Yucun moved more to conquer the city and conquer the art of war for Daiyu to learn. He taught her the art of war, and it turned out that he just wanted to cater to the four major families, because the basic impression of these people of this Jia Yu Village was that he was just a bastard. He has to do something, he has nothing to do with the snow goose, the two little girls and the two mothers and the little monks in the temple to practice together, although Daiyu is cowardly, but if he learns kung fu, he can help his father, so he is very diligent in learning, but congenital insufficiency, sometimes the master who teaches martial arts is anxious, overkill, to make her faint. Fortunately, Liu Zhenyuan studied a lot of internal skills and took good care of Daiyu, so that Daiyu was able to learn smoothly.
Jia Yucun felt that this was not good, and said that Mo Ruo should read a few scriptures well, nourish his spirits, and learn some self-defense techniques when he is older. Just transfer the Diamond Sutra to Daiyu, so that Daiyu can cultivate a state of mind. That Jia Yucun teaching turned out to be a picture of freedom, every time he explained a piece of words, he said that he realized it himself, in fact, he was lazy, and he didn't want this lazy teaching method to meet this kind of talented genius with the most qualified and intelligent genius, this Daiyu Bingxue was smart, but from this "Diamond Sutra" he realized another martial arts world, which is a later story
But then came the news that Yangzhou had fallen after fierce resistance, and that Shi Kefa had rejected the high-ranking officials of Duoduo and was martyred, and all his soldiers were killed in battle. The Qing soldiers slaughtered and plundered, and sealed the knife for ten days. The bad news that 800,000 people were killed in Yangzhou on the 10th, and the prosperous city of Yangzhou for several generations was "piled up corpses and stored, hands and feet pillowed, blood into the water and blue ochre, turned into five colors, and the pond was flat". Jinshan Temple and Yangzhou are separated by only two days, the monks in the temple took the initiative to ask the abbot to go to Yangzhou for the deceased, Xue guerrilla and Zhao Hu rushed back to Yangzhou City at the risk of death, and also pretended to be a monk mixed in the funeral, at this time Yangzhou City was broken, seeing the ruins of the wall, the corpses were all over the field, the women were humiliated, the babies were everywhere, the liver and brain were smeared on the ground, the crying was in the wilderness, the Manchu soldiers shot the Han people in groups, killed in the pit, drove into the river and drowned, stabbed to death with spears and short swords, and the whole family was burned to death.
They went to the city. In order to find Lin Ruhai, he helped the Taoist monks incinerate the corpses during the day, and went in and out of the former soldiers' portals at night, and many families could not find the survivors. And the white bones of the thirteen people left in Yangzhou City by Lin Ruhai's concubine and family maids were neatly arranged in the ashes. The two of them were sad while putting away the bones, Zhao Hu saw that the girl Qiu Ju was burned to the remaining half of her leg, and couldn't help crying, thinking that this girl with a slight disability in one leg had also washed her clothes, he was sad and indignant. The two of them carefully distinguished, there should be no Lin Ruhai in these bones. They also cried when they saw the people they were with every day dying here so neatly. At this time, they heard a woman's cry, Xue Guerrilla found Daiyu's nurse, she was about twenty years old, in her mother's nickname Huang Yi, she cried and said that Lin Ruhai was ordered by Shi Kefa to be in danger, and led a team out of the city to ask for help, after the city was broken, the housekeeper ordered everyone to hide all the belongings in the house, saying that these things could not be left to the Qing soldiers, at night, people heard the sound of slamming the door, whipping people and the howls of the injured. The fire spread that night, but in some places the fire was extinguished by the rain. The next day, the people who went out to inquire said that they had killed many people, but notices were posted everywhere saying that if those who were hiding could turn themselves in, they would be pardoned, so many of the people who had hidden in their homes came out. But when they came out, they were divided into piles of fifty or sixty men, and under the supervision of three or four soldiers, they were tied up with ropes. Then he began to stab them with his spear, killing them on the spot, even if they fell to the ground. The woman was tied around her neck by a long rope, and she was as heavy as a bead, falling step by step, and covered in mud; Many women were humiliated by soldiers. Everyone looked at Erniang, Erniang was a resolute woman, she ordered people to lay firewood in the middle of the yard, everyone changed their clothes, and lay down in order, several concubines lay in the middle, everyone had a heart of death, but also calmly. Daiyu's nurse didn't want to die, saying that she would go back first to see if the child was alive anyway. As soon as she went out, she saw that the Qing soldiers had set fire to the street of the Lin family. The fire was so great that it couldn't even be extinguished by rain. She stumbled home in the rain, and among the ruins she saw her husband holding his three-year-old child nailed to death by a spear at the gate, and the old man and his wife all fell to the ground. She could not pull out the spear, the child and her husband were inseparable at all, and her heart was sad, so she found a rope and planned to hang herself at the door, when a young general of seventeen or eighteen years old came to save her. She recognized this person as Jia Zhu, Jia Min's nephew. I couldn't help but cry. Jaju drew her spear, and two of his retinue buried her family.
It had just sunny, and the corpses on the road had risen sharply after the rain, and many of the corpses were soaked in green skin like drums, and their flesh and blood collapsed. The smell is pressing, the sun is shining, its gas is worse, the room is dense, forming like fog, and the smell is fishy. Regardless of the toxicity of the corpses, many monks have been burying and burning the corpses in the city, overspending the deceased, and some of them have fallen down themselves. On the seventh day, there were some stragglers who plundered in this city, Xue Guerrilla and Zhao Hu encountered a small number of Qing soldiers, fought all the way out of the city, and had to return to Zhenjiang, and at this time the army of Qing soldiers also came to Zhenjiang, and there was a panic in Jinshan Temple.
Everyone was full of grief and indignation, and these fierce pains spread to every corner of Jinshan Temple in the mouths of Zhao Hu and Xue Guerrilla who returned, as well as those Taoist priests and monks. Daiyu listened silently and walked away secretly. She couldn't be sure if her father was still alive, she thought that her second mother and family were no longer there, and the home she left was gone. She went to the back mountain alone, lay down in the pit where the monks had dug to plant trees, and piled stones and earth on her body. Finally there was only one face left of her own, and after thinking about it, she covered her face too, and in a dull suffocation she did not let herself struggle, and the tears washed away the soil beside her eyes, and he saw a look of great concern.
A boy in a red dress watched curiously as she buried herself
"This sister, what are you doing here. Why bury yourself. The boy anxiously ripped the dirt off her face.
Daiyu didn't speak. Close your eyes. Ming Yan, who was six or seven years old at the time, smiled: "Second Master Bao, this sister is dead, of course it's not good to talk to you." ”
"Oh, my sister is too lonely here alone, I'll accompany you, Mingyan, you bury the two of us together."
He lay down next to Daiyu and let Mingyan cover him with dirt, and he looked at Daiyu with a sideways face. Daiyu closed her eyes and didn't speak. He thought about it for a moment, and turned his face back. "Mingyan, you buried me and this sister together."
Mingyan nodded, and covered the two of them with mud. Who knew that he panicked, and the soil was loose, and the dirt collapsed with a clatter.
Daiyu had to work hard to get herself up and pull the boy out of the mud, the boy gasped and almost suffocated, Daiyu didn't know what to do, wiped the dirt off the boy's face with a handkerchief, and patted the boy on the back hard. The boy grabbed her hand and gasped for air, but he didn't catch a breath and fainted again.
Mingyan, what are you doing? A few family members came over, where did you take the second master, carefully grandma peeled your skin.
The second master buried himself here. Mingyan pointed to the mud pit.
Several family members were shocked and hurriedly brought the half-unconscious boy back to the temple. No one paid attention to Daiyu, Daiyu followed quietly, seeing that the boy was carried into a side courtyard in the temple by his family, a young general took him over and slapped him on the back a few times, and the young man vomited and cried. A young man in his teens rushed over very eagerly, shouting incessantly: Baoyu Baoyu. A gentle woman was so anxious that she shed tears, it was your second master Lian who was too skinny, and took the second uncle to hide in the carriage, and you couldn't come out when the soldiers were in chaos here, which let the ancestors know that everyone was not allowed to be clean. The young man was in a hurry, and called his sister-in-law's name: "I think Sister Li Kun can follow a woman, what am I afraid of, so I brought Baoyu out." The young general said gently: "Baoyu is fine, Second Master Lian, you are about to get married, it doesn't matter if you come out to practice, but Baoyu is too young, so you can't make a mistake." "Who." He saw a figure flash under the porch, and hurried out.
Daiyu was very familiar with this place, hiding behind a big ding, he looked around and silently returned to the front hall.
During dinner, Daiyu quietly went to the side courtyard and saw that the child was already playing with that Mingyan, so she was relieved, there are more stupid people in this world than me. She thought to herself. That night, Daiyu heard Miao Zhu say to Jia Yucun that the Qing army was likely to be stationed in Jinshan Temple, and said that a Jia family passed by here, encountered a fox spirit, and almost had an accident, so he left in a hurry that day. Jia Yucun was shocked and asked if it was the Jia family, but whether he had left.
The monk said: You have also been an official in the capital, how can you not know your fellow Jiafu, this Jiafu is divided into Ning Rong's mansion, all of them are relatives of the emperor, this is the eldest daughter of Jia Zheng of Ningguo Mansion is now the princess of King Fu, the eldest son Jia Zhu came to Yangzhou this time to find his uncle Lin Ruhai, with the second son of Rongfu Jia Lian and his own brother, his brother was born with jade, and he acted and spoke the most peculiarly, and was raised in the girl's pile because of the old lady's favor since he was a child. This time, he and Second Master Lian secretly followed the eldest prince's car out, and the eldest prince had already rushed back to Jinling overnight.
Xue Guerrilla and Zhao Hu also brought back a few orphans, Daiyu asked Zhao Hu to donate some money in the temple, let him raise, among them is named Xing Yanyan, and Miaoyu, the daughter of a lame Taoist priest who lives in this temple, is very good. The three girls are of the same age, and Xing Yuyan always pulls Daiyu to play with her. But Daiyu was depressed because she was worried about her father, and she just studied and practiced martial arts every day, so she didn't go to Miaoyu's place, but Miaoyu came to find Miss Lin by herself. In a flash, winter goes to spring, the Spring Festival is approaching, current affairs are still chaotic, and Buddhism is not pure, but these children are growing up day by day. Daiyu's children also participated in some rescue and transfer wars, and gradually grew up.
On this day, Miaoyu came over and saw that Lin Daiyu was practicing the dragon sword with Wang Fei, and after watching it for a while, she sneered: This kind of swordsmanship is also worthy of teaching us. Wang Fei was not convinced, and asked, "What will you do, dare to say that I can't teach well." ”
Miaoyu laughed: "If you don't believe it, try to hit me with your dragon sword." ”
That Wang Fei was afraid that he would really hurt Miaoyu and look bad with this lame Taoist priest, so he only used three points of force to beat him. Rao is three points of strength, and he also held back his weak hair when he approached Miaoyu, hoping that he could scare this woman with his sword qi. Who knew that this Miaoyu retreated slightly, and then unloaded its strength. That Daiyu saw a few tricks, and immediately understood the principle, and couldn't reach the enemy's side after fighting for a long time, Wang Fei naturally admired it, and hurriedly said to Daiyu, "Don't learn from us, her kung fu is the most suitable for you." ”
Daiyu smiled: "Uncle Wang Fei, her martial arts are actually ordinary, but she just understands the other party's mental methods." The best way to know how to avoid an attack in advance is that you don't use your skills, just catch a child like a mortal and catch her. ”
Wang Fei suddenly realized, he didn't want to reach out for anything, and sure enough, he grabbed Miaoyu.
Na Miaoyu was angry: "This Daiyu is really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, I watched them force you to practice martial arts every day, help you." ”
Wang Fei let her down, she was still angry, and scolded Wang Fei, "You are a slave, you have no dignity and humility, and you have no king's law." Wang Fei looked at this beautiful little girl and laughed.
Daiyu said tactfully, "Uncle Wang is my master, and he is the only heir of You Longjian." Don't scold him. "What about the heirs, the elders of Shaolin Wudang are not my family's minions." Miaoyu was so anxious that she jumped and jumped, Wang Fei said: "You little girl is too careless, Zhao Hu is from the Shaolin faction, that is, the emperors of all dynasties also respect Shaolin Wudang very much, you still don't talk so hard, I have to find a rope to hang you up." "That Miaoyu couldn't use her strength in the air, and the more angry she became. Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled: "Uncle Wang, you let her go, I'll compete with her." ”
Wang Fei put down Miaoyu, that Daiyu nodded slightly, and did not make a move, Miaoyu was angry, reached out and grabbed a sword, and killed Daiyu, Daiyu did not avoid it, that Miaoyu saw the sword on Daiyu's chest, and was slightly stunned, only to see Daiyu turn half of her body, dangerously get out of the way, and stretched out her hand to scratch it under Miaoyu's ribs, and Miaoyu immediately smiled softly. Wang Fei saw that Daiyu had already defeated the enemy without using tricks, and was very angry: "Where are you calling martial arts training, make me happy." Who knew that the lame Taoist priest shouted loudly on the side: "You doll is very smart, and your qualifications are also very good, Wang Daxia, you don't understand, she only made one move just now, she braked quietly, paid attention to the changes in the moment, and at the same time controlled the enemy's weakness, she is a real master." If you don't believe, be a witness to how you compare yourself with her. Daiyu didn't dare to smile, Wang Fei looked at this six-year-old child, delicate and weak, how to be convinced, "I don't know what to use to fight her, so I used the two tricks You Dragon Sword Technique that the teacher just taught you, and I fought with you." Miaoyu was very happy and immediately handed over the sword, Daiyu held the steel sword in her hand, and the sword seemed to look very large. Wang Fei said: "Look: Rise: Crouching Tiger Panlong," he made a Crouching Tiger style, sitting cross-legged like a mountain. Daiyu smiled: "The master is offended." "Fly up.
