The Wind Rises Chapter 31 Falling from the sky, flying to the ground, is it the auspicious fortune of the country

Zhao Tie had already taken his name post to the Imperial History Mansion to post it, and he would not be able to come back for a while, and Zhao Ye and Zhao Hai and Zhao Jiang brothers were invited to Nanshi.

At this moment, Wang Li and Zhao Yun are sitting in Yonghe Li Cuiyunfang Heyun Building chatting and drinking, looking at the railing, downstairs Fang City is vertical and horizontal, heavy buildings flying pavilions, pedestrians are weaving, wine flags are shining.

While drinking, they suddenly heard a commotion downstairs, the carriages and horses neighed, Wang Li and Zhao Yun looked over, only to see a few horses escorting a carriage into the Fang City, the Fang Market was originally relatively wide, but in the eyes of the horse rider and the coachman, it still seemed to be very narrow, maybe the vast plain was enough for them to gallop.

Several horses and carts went on a rampage, several stalls had been smashed to pieces, desks, stalls, and back baskets were torn apart and fell to the ground, and goods were also spilled all over the road. Silk, cloth, antiques, vegetables, and fruits were splashed with a thick layer of ash under the horses' hooves, or shattered in response, leaving only the small traders to cry out and grab the ground.

Although the goods were scattered, the small traders managed to avoid close contact with the horses!

Pedestrians on the road could not dodge, a young scholar was trampled by a horse, the crown belt fell into the dust, his hair was scattered, he sat on the road, hugged his legs and screamed, and kept shouting "Sven sweeps the floor!" ”。

An old woman was hit by a horse carrying a bamboo basket in her hand, and the person had fallen on the street, and the eggs in the bamboo basket were scattered in all directions, or rolled along the street, or smashed to the ground, revealing the yellow, orange, and orange sticky egg liquid.

A few children who were playing in the middle of the street, dancing with bamboo dragonflies in their hands, were already stunned in the face of the sudden disaster, their hands and feet could not move, and they looked at the horse's hooves that were getting closer and closer in horror, tears flew out like rain, and a cry finally sounded from their mouths, one after another.

"Enough!"

The curtain of the carriage was gently opened, and a duck's throat-like voice came from behind the curtain. The knights stood on their horses, laughing at the frightened crying children and the passers-by who dared to speak angrily.

The group walked straight to the opposite side of the restaurant and jumped off the horse, but the people in the carriage did not get off, but just stretched their hands out of the window and waved.

Then they drew their knives and broke into the shop opposite, and there was another sound of chickens and dogs jumping and screaming, and in a moment everyone actually took a young woman of seventeen or eighteen years old and threw her into the carriage and drove away.

Obviously, Wang Li and the others did not expect the group to be kidnapped directly, and they were unable to react for a while.

Zhao Yun was so angry that his steel teeth clenched, his hands were bruised, and suddenly "Bang!" With a bang, the wine glass in his hand was crushed alive.

"Zilong, don't be impatient! You and I are new to the city, and we are not familiar with the place, so let's find out the situation first. Wang Li gently patted the back of Zhao Yun's hand and glanced at the table on the other side, and Zhao Yun immediately came to his senses.

I saw that the scholar on the table, who was nearly a year weak, suddenly took the case: "Lang Lang Qiankun, in broad daylight, these people dare to do evil at the feet of the Son of Heaven, is there still a royal law?" ”

The scholar beside him had a white face and a slight beard, but the good-looking man got up and covered his mouth tightly, pressed the scholar on the seat again, looked around for a while, and then said in a low voice: "Brother Zhicai, you don't want to die?" We can't afford to mess with that man. ”

"The Historical Records of Shang Jun Lie" says: The Son of Heaven broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people." The scholar who called Zhicai was indignant and said angrily, "What is there not to provoke? When you see injustice, you dare not speak out, and let the villain ravage and oppress the good. Could it be that this is how you read the books of the sages and serve the country? ”

The faces of the people present were all embarrassed, and the white face was slightly bearded, but he whispered: "Behind that person is Feng Yu, Feng Zhen is a ten-standing servant, the Son of Heaven regards him as a father, and the Son of Heaven is still tolerated, Brother Zhicai, what can you do with me?" ”

Sealed?

One of the Ten Permanent Attendants?

"Brother, that Feng Zhen is just a eunuch, why did he rob a folk woman?" Zhao Yun asked suspiciously.

"I don't know."

Wang Li shook his head, but listened to Na Zhicai and continued to scold: "Today, when the son is a villain, a distant virtuous minister, blindly appoints eunuchs, imprisons people with lofty ideals, stirs up the miasma of the court, and only ends up in the world full of demons." The Son of Heaven also dared to hurt people on horseback at his feet, and was forcibly abducted on the street, but the Son of Heaven regarded him as a relative, and he was loyal and treacherous, how could it be done by the Ming Jun? ”

The white-faced slight beard glared at the scholar before continuing: "Brother Zhicai, you don't want to die!" You have just entered Beijing, or do you know that the store is not my Middle-earth clan, and both parents died, but they live with their brother. His brother often goes out to buy goods, and he is not in the store for a long time, and he will turn around every time he walks for ten months, and the girl is the only one in charge of the whole melon and fruit store. ”

The other gray-clothed man at the table nodded: "Brother Chen is right, since this store opened five years ago, that girl has hired a few helpers to run it alone. As we all know, although our Luoyang is full of flowers, there are countless merchants, and the green-skinned scoundrels on the street are also the top in the country.

But that girl has been in charge of this store alone for a few years, from a young age to a peach and plum years, have you ever seen this Tang Ji be blackmailed and coerced by any scoundrels? Guys, do you know why? ”

Everyone thought about it and shook their heads in unison.

Zhicai was stunned and asked, "Why is that?" ”

The man in gray glanced at everyone, shook his head and lowered his voice and said, "I don't know the specific reason, but I remember another thing." Last summer, I and the young master of the Yang family in the south of the city were also drinking here, and I had seen a few splashes from other places teasing the girl at the door of this Tang Ji melon and fruit shop.

Who knew that as soon as these short-eyed splashes walked in, Tang Ji was beaten to death by several strong men and thrown out. Later, Brother Yang and I never heard about these splashes on the street! ”

Everyone was shocked, but Na Zhicai had already reacted: "You mean to say that there is someone behind that girl, but that Fengyu?" ”

The man in gray nodded, shook his head again and said, "I didn't say anything, I just think that girl may really have something to do with Feng Yu." As you know, the big man who was the leader that day was the one standing next to the carriage today! ”

Everyone was stunned.

Wang Li and Zhao Yun also looked at each other, although the man in gray had tried his best to lower his voice, but both of them were martial arts, one was at a first-class level and the other was reaching a first-class level, and his ears and eyes were comparable to ordinary people, and the words of the people at that table reached the ears of the two of them word by word.

The one who protected the girl turned out to be the people around Feng Zhen, but what did a eunuch who had been castrated do to monitor and even protect a girl who had no relatives and no reason? Fancy her? , anyway, if others believe it, they don't believe it either.

Sure enough, I heard Na Zhicai ask, "Could it be that Feng Zhen has been hitting that girl's attention?" But that seal is useless, what's so strange about it? ”

The man in gray and the white-faced man shook his head.

Seeing this, Zhicai couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that the northern lieutenant is not in Beijing, otherwise how can these eunuchs arbitrarily bully the weak and trample on the innocent?" ”

The Northern Lieutenant refers to the Northern Lieutenant of Luoyang, who is in charge of the security of Kyoto and the northern suburbs of Luoyang.

"Captain North?" The white face didn't need to sneer, and said, "Not to mention that Heshunfang is the south of Kyoto City, even if this place belongs to the north, I'm afraid that the northern lieutenant will not be able to hide, how can he dare to care?" ”

Zhicai just shook his head and said, "I'm talking about Cao Beibei. ”

To the north of Cao is Cao Cao. In the third year of Xiping, Cao Cao raised filial piety and honesty into Beijing as a Lang official, and soon transferred to the northern lieutenant of Luoyang. After taking office, Cao Cao set up more than ten five-color sticks, which hung on the left and right of the yamen, "those who violate the ban will be killed." coincided with the fact that his uncle Jian Shuo, who was often serving Jian Shuo, violated the prohibition of night walking, and Cao Cao showed no mercy and executed Jian Tu with a five-colored stick. As a result, "the Beijing master has collected traces, and no one dares to offend".

The man in gray nodded, then a little gloomy, and said, "Who said it wasn't? It's a pity that Cao Mengde also offended many powerful people because of this incident, and was secretly demoted by His Majesty, and was transferred to Dunqiu as soon as possible. Ay! Today, His Majesty blindly appoints eunuchs and imprisons the Magi, but he is afraid of this world..."

The crowd was silent.

After a long time, seeing that there was no movement at the adjacent table and just blindly drinking, Wang Li and Zhao Yun got up and took the money and went downstairs.

"Brother, let's go back to the inn?" Zhao Yun walked out of the gate, took the reins from the shopkeeper, handed it to Wang Li, and asked.

Falling from the sky, flying to the ground, occupying many fields. It's all you who freeze Wu Min to kill! Could this be the auspiciousness of the country?

Wang Li sighed, glanced back at the Tang Ji melon and fruit shop, and said, "I heard that person say that Feng Yu should be more familiar with that girl, and he also sends people to maintain it from time to time. No matter what happened to the girl, but in a hurry, the girl should not be in any danger to her life, and the person who was a eunuch would not ruin the girl's reputation. ”

The moon is dark and kills the night, and the wind is high and the sky is on fire.

Seeing Zhao Yunfei on the horse, Wang Li also quickly stepped on the horse, keeping pace with Zhao Yun, and a sneer flashed in his eyes: "Since the girl's matter is not urgent, then go back to the inn now to recuperate." Wait until the evening, let's go and meet this eunuch who shook the government and the opposition for a while! ”

……

It was already evening when they returned to the inn, and Zhao Tie and the others had not yet returned. Wang Li and Zhao Yun finished their meal early and went back to their rooms to close their eyes and recuperate.

In the dead of night, Wang Li meditated for a long time according to the "Zhuangzi Heart Sutra", only to feel that his physical fitness was becoming more and more subtle, and his blood was becoming more and more vigorous.

Suddenly, his mind moved, as if a hidden shackle in his heart had suddenly been broken away, and his consciousness was clearer than before, the snoring sound in the next room, the crawling sound of rats in the corner of the wall, and the sound of falling leaves in the courtyard were all surging like a tide, clearly recognizable, and even his own heart beating and blood flow could be clearly felt.

"Zhuangzi Heart Sutra" is naturally Wang Li's cheap father and the "White Cloud Thirteen Styles" together with the exercise left to Wang Li.

In his previous life, the master only taught a set of "Baiyun Thirteen Styles", and the Taoist exercises and internal skills were only exposed to a little bit of skin. And this set of "Zhuangzi Heart Sutra" left by the cheap dad is naturally what Wang Li likes, and he is fascinated by it every day, it is like a mellow old wine, the longer he practices, the more Wang Li feels the power of "Zhuangzi Heart Sutra" and the amazing talent of Zhuangzi.

Zhuangzi name Zhou, the word Xiu, a great philosopher, thinker and writer during the Warring States Period, a descendant of King Chuzhuang, moved to the Song State due to war, the main founder of Taoist doctrine, and the Taoist ancestor Lao Tzu and called "Lao Zhuang".

His works "Zhuangzi" in the inner, outer and miscellaneous chapters of "Wandering Away", "Theory of Things", "The Great Master", "Speaking of the Sword" and so on are famous in later generations, and Zhuangzi's ideas such as "chaos sitting and forgetting" and "the unity of heaven and man" are even famous abroad, and many countries such as Japan, Britain and the United States have even set up their research institutes.

But I don't want to turn out that Zhuangzi is not only a leader in his thoughts and literature, but also a generation of martial arts masters, and a master in the world.

But think of Zhuangzi's "Getaway": there is a fish in the North Underworld, and its name is Kun. The Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is; Turned into a bird, its name is Peng. Peng's back, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is; Flying in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky. It is a bird, and the sea will migrate to the south.

Ninety thousand miles to the top!

If it weren't for a generation of grandmasters, how could he make such a majestic and magnificent sentence?
