Chapter 104: The First Handshake
Wu Shan's eyes froze, and he said slowly: "Uncle Xu, if you were me, what would you choose?" β
This is one of the few times that the two have used honorifics since they met. Wushan was also very embarrassed, I don't know why the old man asked such a problem to himself. If he was unwilling to stay, he didn't dare to guarantee whether the relationship between the two would deteriorate.
The old man has no scheming on the surface, and Wushan will not be naΓ―ve to think that a commander of a military region and a political and governance committee are very simple people. Otherwise, in all the previous movements, they would have stood aside a long time ago.
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed again, and slapped Wushan's shoulder across the table: "Little slippery head, I'm joking with you myself, see how you react." I thought that you would refuse sternly, and I also thought that you would be half-pushed, half-scheming about my old face, but I didn't expect you to kick the ball to me. β
"Okay," Uncle Xu sighed slightly: "Obey the organization's arrangement." Your chief officer is still too Meng, and you have been promoted, military commander! β
Wu Shan pretended to be in pain and grinned: "Old man, can you change to a gentler way next time." Then he heard Liu Taimeng's news, and was a little surprised: "No, his father's body is no longer good?" β
When it comes to the army commander and the time for re-grading, a major general is a sure thing. Although in another time and space, Lao Shuai's health has not been good, and he still died in the eighties. Wu Shan found that he had inadvertently changed a lot of things, at least by a few years earlier than anything else in history. History has changed, and anything can happen.
"Don't be unhappy, Lao Tzu can afford you when he shoots you." With a stinky look that gives you a shameless face, when it comes to the old handsome, he shook his head slightly: "Danger has appeared, but I don't think that the old leader who crawled out of the pile of dead people back then would leave so quickly." Boy, our generation is hard. We can't drown in water, we can't kill with guns, and Hades doesn't dare to come to us for trouble. β
The old man's speculation is not far from ten. Perhaps, when he encounters happy things in this life, Lao Shuai can live a few more years. After all, people are in good spirits when they are happy, and a person's spirit is gone, and his health is not good, he will die quickly.
"Knock knock!" There was a knock on the door of the room, and Aunt Tian pushed the door open: "Lao Xu, don't talk about national affairs as soon as Xiaoshan comes." The child is younger than the rest of our family, and you are responsible for the tiredness of the child? Seeing the old general's dumbfounded appearance, she smiled: "Okay, I know that you two are people who do big things." The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. People are iron and rice is steel, come and eat. β
When I walked to the door of the dining room, I heard a familiar voice: "My brother and I have washed our hands, but you haven't washed your hands yet." Uncle said that we must wash our hands before eating, otherwise there will be small insects that we can't see with our eyes and bite us in the stomach. β
A little boy came out of it in a daze, and Aunt Tian scolded with a smile: "Xiao Song, my sister is better at talking than grandma?" I've long told you to wash your hands before eating. β
Wushan didn't know this child, but guessed that it must be Lao Xutou's grandchildren. Hearing the voice, he walked in quickly. The two children inside were stunned for less than a second, and both threw themselves into Wushan's arms.
The little girl cried so much that she cried a handful of tears, and while crying, she hammered Wushan's chest with her little hand: "Uncle, don't you want us anymore?" It's been a long time since I've seen you. β
The little boy's tears swirled in his eyes, and they were just about to fall.
I really deserve to die, and Wushan's tears also came out. When I went home during the Spring Festival, I didn't see these two brothers, and I was about to ask, but I didn't know what happened to Lu Dao and forgot about this stubble. I don't know how long I've been in the road, and I don't have their shadow in my heart.
"Uncle wants you, Lingling is good, don't cry." Wu Shan touched Xiao Jinling's head and patted Xiao Jinchun's back again.
"Sister, don't cry, let's go wash our faces." Xiao Jinchun took his sister's hand.
"Uncle, let's pull the hook first, don't leave us." Seeing that Wushan and himself were hooked, the brothers jumped away.
Unexpectedly, Old Man Xu, who usually has an evil face, looks like a Maitreya Buddha in front of his grandchildren.
He hugged the little boy named Komatsu, the child's hand touched his stubble, and the old man closed his eyes, looking intoxicated.
"It's Jianguo's son," Aunt Tian explained beside her, "Both of them went to Yanhuang and left the child to us." β
Wu Shan rummaged through his backpack and found a jade longevity lock, which was given by the head of the Cheng family when he was in Nanyang, and sent him ten in one go. In a few decades, it may be bribery. However, Wushan itself has a solid background, and these things are just a gift. There was no psychological burden when he received it, and at that time, Cheng Xijiang, the old man, thought that Wushan was greedy for money.
Aunt Tian made a home-cooked meal, and made a bowl of egg drop soup for each of the three children, with some seaweed in it.
Seeing that Wushan is coming, the freshly made back to the pot meat is also decent. Wushan hasn't eaten a home-cooked meal for a long time, and his appetite is great. Fortunately, Mr. Xu's meal itself is very large, and he has prepared a lot of food. Elsewhere, the retort may have been empty for a long time.
The two soldiers solved the problem in twos and threes, and then moved the stool next to the dining table and sat next to it.
Lao Xu Tou picked his teeth there without scruples: "No, Lao Tzu's teeth have to be pulled." β
Wu Shan smiled dumbly, this old man really had no image at home, and threw the longevity lock in his hand to him.
Aunt Tian takes care of the children's meals, and her eyes look at the two of them from time to time.
"Alas, Xiaoshan, you're breaking the bank again." Old Mrs. Xu is not hypocritical.
Old Man Xu held it in his hand, and without waiting for Wushan to speak, he said: "We are talking about fighting local tyrants and dividing the land, and if we don't confiscate his company, we can count it as worthy of him." β
This sentence choked Wushan in the air, and he couldn't cry or laugh.
The Tan family brothers and sisters have round faces and flesh on their bodies, and they all look a lot taller.
"Why did you take the two children?" Wushan was puzzled
"Jianguo went to your house and said that the two children couldn't understand the language." The old man threw the toothpick into the trash can next to him: "Let the child learn Mandarin first." I can't imagine that being in my house for so long is not as good as your one-sided relationship. β
Old man Xu sulked there.
Wushan gave him a roll of the eyes, this old man was with him, as if he had scored a victory or a defeat in everything.
"That's right, Uncle Xu. Actually, I came to Beijing mainly to get the Nanyang gang to establish a religion. Wushan was up: "Otherwise, I wouldn't be so interested in sharing the board for Wang Yongxing." β
"Religion? Buddhism? "The old man himself was born in the Shaolin Temple and has no resistance to religion.
"No, our traditional Taoism, the contemporary master is here." Wu Shan pinched his knuckles to a snap: "Nanyang, including Southeast Asia, is a holy place for religion. Religion to religion. I don't believe that the things of the Chinese ancestors are still not worth the foreign. It is said that foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures, and they have to put down these foreign religions. β
Aunt Tian heard Wushan say the word monk, and smiled back and forth.
Sure enough, Old Man Xu glared: "You kid begging to be beaten." His heels patted lightly on the ground: "You still have to report this matter to the great man, I don't think the sincerity of the two of them can solve this problem." β
Uncle Xu has always been resolute in his work, and he went to call immediately.
"Go, the great man said the present is the past." As he spoke, he was about to go out.
"Lao Xu, wait!" Aunt Tian went to find a woolen vest and put it in for the old man.
Seeing that Wushan was leaving, the Tan family brothers and sisters didn't eat anymore, and they were about to go with Wushan. To put it mildly, they finally settled down.
The guards of the great man's house saw Xu Shiyou and Wushan and let them go directly.
In the living room, Wang Ruilin first called "Commander Xu", and then greeted: "Comrade Wushan is here?" Wait a minute, the chief has a guest. β
Wushan is nothing. Old Man Xu looked very impatient, and when Wang Ruilin saw this, he hurriedly said, "I'll go and report." β
After a while, he returned: "The chief let you in." β
There are indeed guests in the room, it is the husband and wife.
Wushan never dreamed that it would be the old man and the uncle.
Xu Shiyou, who usually has a high throat and a big voice, also rarely whispered: "Chief, I'm here!" β
He turned his head and shouted, "Lao Ping, bring your second boy here." β
Ping Lao smiled and nodded, Ping Da was about to stand up, but was held down by Old Man Xu. He still called out respectfully: "Uncle Xu, long time no see." β
Xu Shiyou nodded approvingly and looked up and down.
As soon as they entered the door from Wushan, the eyes of the two men never left him.
Just now, Wang Ruilin went in to report, and they heard the name of this legendary young man again.
After a lot of big scenes, Wushan was also seen cramped and uneasy.
He greeted first: "Grandpa Great Man, I'm back." β
"Hello Pinglao." Wu Shan said to Pingda next to him: "You are Pingda, the son of Pinglao, right?" β
The corners of Ping Lao's mouth curled, and he stretched out his right hand, Wu Shan hurriedly held it with both hands, and then held it with his four hands.
He was in Wushan's ear, in a voice that only two people could hear: "I have heard a lot of your stories in the past two days, you are very good, and you have won glory for us Chinese." β
Wu Shan felt his calloused palm: "Having experienced rural life, it seems that your experience has been successful." β
The two looked at each other and smiled.
No one could have imagined that the core figures of the fourth generation of the leadership group in the future will be these two people.
"Call the great brother and grandfather," Ping Lao teased: "Call me Ping Lao, am I that old?" β
"Grandpa Ping!" Wu Shan was a little embarrassed: "Then I call you Second Uncle Ping?" β
"It doesn't matter, I'm just a few years older than you." Ping Da said kindly.
"Why?" Old Man Xu's big voice returned: "Chief, you come to judge." His son is a few years older than Xiaoshan, can he be called uncle? β
"That's your self-inferiority!" Ping Lao sneered: "He is the grandson of the old loach, so he has to call me grandpa and my son uncle." Can you handle it? β
These two brothers have a very good relationship, and they always like to quarrel when they meet, and the great man also looks at it happily.
Then, the old man's face sank, and he looked at Wushan: "Yo, isn't this our national hero?" Are you willing to come back? I thought you were going to wipe out those natives and become kings there. β
These words made Wushan feel cold, and he trembled and frightened there.
The great man's criticism continues: "You have no military discipline, you are very capable of coercing and instigating Shangguan, Boss Wu!" β
"Chief, didn't they bring back thirteen warships, Xiaoshan?" Xu Shiyou whispered on the side.
"It's what you're used to," the great man's eyes swept over, and the old man Xu, who had always been afraid of heaven and earth, also closed his mouth: "If it weren't for this bold boy, the second boy of the Wang family, would he have such great courage?" If you are not careful, you may trigger the Third World War. Who will bear this responsibility? β
When Ping Lao heard the reproach of the great man, he was not angry, and hurriedly persuaded beside him: "Big brother of the great man, this kid Xiaoshan is still very measured in his actions, he just attacked the other party's navy. Besides, when you're young, it's not a bad thing to have some impulses. If this group of young people were like us old men, it would be troublesome. β
Xu Shiyou hurriedly answered beside him: "Yes, yes, chief." Didn't Taizu also say that the world realm is theirs after all. Young people are like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and when I was young, I was even more vigorous than him. β
The old man's complexion finally eased, and he only beat it. "Alright, let's all sit down and talk. Otherwise, when I go back, I should say that I don't know how to be hospitable. β
"What the hell is going on?" The great man's tone softened: "Don't miss a thing. β
Wu Shan accompanied the cautious and started with the attack on the outpost. In the middle, Wang Ruilin came in and helped add water three times.
Everyone knows that Lu Dao has a rough idea, and when they heard Wushan's narration, their tone was plain. The three old men all came out of the battlefield, how could they not know the danger of the road. Pingda grew up listening to war stories, so he can naturally imagine the difficulties. If you are not careful, you will never recover.
After the experience was finished, everyone was still there to reminisce.
"Stinky boy, I can't imagine that you inadvertently planted a thorn in Sam's man." Xu Shiyou doesn't have a good impression of foreigners: "What is the Italian you are talking about?" β
"Dogroni!"
"yes, that Doge, alas, the name of the fucking foreigner is hard to remember." The old man habitually reported a foul language: "He is a foreigner, is it worth believing?" β
"There are good people in Chinese, and there are good people in foreigners." Wushan organized the language: "During the Anti-Japanese War, didn't there be many international friends who came to China from thousands of miles away? Dogg is a fanatical soldier. It's all Chinese, and if you really have any ideas, a foreigner can't make waves. β
"Yes, yes," Old Man Xu grabbed the conversation: "It's me who is not good." The bullet on my body was taken by Dr. Bethune. β
The great man coughed and took a slow sip of tea: "Do you mean anything other than needing the support of the motherland when you brought those Chinese here?" β
"Yes." Wushan began to explain the necessity of organizing and strengthening Taoism.
He also told his own invented story.
The world where we are is is cleaved out by Pangu with an axe. Later, the natural saint Hongjun Ancestor gave the mandate of heaven to manage this piece of heaven and earth. He took in three apprentices, who were the three Qings of Taoism.
Daode Tianzun, also known as Taishang Laojun, mixed Yuan Laojun, Birth Emperor, Taiqing Emperor, the world is called Laozi.
He was in charge of the teachings of the pipers. Turning Hu into a Buddha and founding Buddhism.
Taishang Laojun, that is, the Yuan Shi Tianzun, also known as the Yuqing Emperor. His disciple grandson, Lei Zhenzi, with a blue face and fangs, is actually the ancestor of Christianity. The ribs have wings and fly into the void, which is the origin of the angels.
Lingbao Tianzun, also known as Taishang Daojun, the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty. The apprentices Sanxiao, Yunxiao, Bixiao, and Qiongxiao, have been masked with scarves for a long time, and are the founders of Islam.
Therefore, all the religions in the world have their origins in Taoism.
Although Wushan also said that he was blind, the three old men were thoughtful, and Pingda's eyes were full of brilliance when he heard it.
"Hahaha," Xu Shiyou laughed without any image: "What makes me feel most funny is that the ancestor of Islam is actually three women." They were there, listening to Wu Huzi say that women's low status made them embarrassed. β
"Well," the great man said, "Let others refer to it again, and make it impeccable!" In two days, I'll take the time to meet this Sect Leader Zhang. What belongs to the nation is the state, and what is good must be inherited. β
He took out a piece of paper from the drawer and threw it to Wu Shan: "Take a look, hurry up and go home." β
Wu Shan was a little stunned, and snorted dissatisfied: "Send someone to monitor my house?" β
Seeing the information, that little resentment vanished, and he smiled silly.
