The meridian road is more than 600 miles long, and the fifth Lun walked for a full twenty days, almost freezing into a dog in the wind and snow, not to mention, and almost missed the time to report to the camp of General Genshi.

At the moment when he left the valley and entered the Guanzhong Plain, Wu Lun only looked back and sighed.

"Sure enough, it's a natural danger, it's so difficult for me to bring only two or three bodyguards to my entourage, let alone an army of tens of thousands? But that's okay, there will be changes in the world in the future, if I can take Guanzhong as the base, I will not be able to attack from all sides, send a Chinese general, and lead more than 1,000 people to block the Meridian Valley, it will be difficult to open! ”

Once the Meridian Valley is passed, Guanzhong suddenly opens up, and there is no natural danger to defend.

The fifth lun quickly whipped northward and entered Gwangwei-gun, where Gyeonggi is located.

In the west, you can see the pine and cypress of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, and in the east, there is a township called "Bailuyuan" next to Bashui.

The next day, turn right at Baqiao, leave Guangwei County, and arrive at Yiwei County. Looking at the longing shadow of Lishan from afar, and when it is parallel to it, it will enter a bustling city street, which is Xinfeng.

Speaking of the origin of this city, it was at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, after Liu Bang became the emperor, his father Liu Taigong, who was almost cooked by Xiang Yu, was respected as the emperor.

Since Mrs. Liu came to Guanzhong, she has followed up with the parents who live with their children in big cities, and she is depressed. The food is different, the voice is very different, and there is no old folks nagging, it is too difficult to treat, so I often think about returning to the east.

In order to take care of his father's emotions, Liu Bang rebuilt Chengsi Street near Hongmen, so that its pattern was exactly the same as that of his hometown Fengyi, and then relocated the people of Fengyi and let them join the Beijing Hukou, hence the name Xinfeng.

Because most of the migrants are the abundant rangers between Liang and Chu, the atmosphere continues to this day. Compared with the majestic imperial capital, Xinfeng is more like a middle-aged man in fresh clothes and angry horses. The slaughter boy in the city, drinking and selling cakes? Cockfighting? It's not lively.

The only change is that Xinfeng has demolished the Taishang Huang Temple? The old site became the "Shogunate"? It was also the headquarters of the Second War against Hungary prepared by Wang Mang, and the "Pig Warriors" from various counties camped and trained in Hongmen in the east.

Fifth Lun by virtue of the runes? Find a subordinate in the General's Mansion and make his intentions clear.

"It turns out that he is replacing the division commander with his body? Please join the army's Takayoshi Goro. ”

This door is a little short? is less than seven feet, slightly older than the fifth Lun, with a fair appearance, after looking up at the fifth Lun, he smiled and said: "Jingshi knows that the Son of Heaven allows you to escort the coffin back to Shuzhong?" How fast is it coming? ”

Fifth Lun only said: "Zi said? If you don't drive, I'm already late. ”

The door was unimpressed, and he introduced himself: "Feng Yan, the word Jingtong? The people of Shuizhang County can also call me by words...... In fact, I am also good to endow? It's a pity that I couldn't ask Yangzi for advice. ”

Shuizhang County is Duling, and the fifth Lun only passed there yesterday? But he guessed this person's family background: "Could it be Wanshi Feng's?" ”

He has done Cao Peng, and his eyes are not only on the bottom? Also look at the high gate valve reading? Even the neighboring counties have inquired carefully. So the fifth Lun knows? In Duling, Guangwei County, there are three portals that have been passed down for generations, and the Feng family is among them.

Feng's ancestor can be traced back to Feng Fengshi, the left general of the Xuan and Yuan dynasties, and he was also a ruthless man who made meritorious contributions in the Western Regions and Qiangdi. His son, Feng Yewang and other five people, are all 2,000 stones of the Han Dynasty, so they are called 10,000 stones. Daughter Feng Jieyu married Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty and was the grandmother of Emperor Ping of the Han Dynasty.

However, after the new dynasty of the Han Dynasty, the family declined.

Feng Yan waved his hand: "The glory of the ancestors has become a thing of the past, how can there be any ten thousand stones now, I am just a mere subordinate to the door, and I am only later than a petty official." ”

Wu Lun said hypocritically: "Otherwise, on the occasion of the country's employment, how can you know that Jingtong can't restore the glory of the ancestors?" ”

Feng Yan said with a smile: "My ambition is not here, I only hope for the truth of morality, not the name of the world, so I am a small gift and a matter of the world." The pursuit of straight walking, tranquil and wanton, that's all! ”

The fifth Lun's trip was to meet Lian Dan, the first general, and to determine his position in Zhu Tu Yong, but Feng Yan said: "Bo Yu came really unlucky. ”

Feng Yan looked at the city: "Or rather, it just so happened!" ”

While the two were talking, there was a commotion in Xinfeng City, regardless of men, women and children, all exclaimed, and the fifth Lun looked back, but saw that the people on the street seemed to have seen some monster and were desperately fleeing.

Those who drink and sell bread do not care about collecting money, and they go straight back; The dog didn't even dare to bark wildly, and ran away with his tail between his legs; The cockfighter also picked up the rooster and slipped away, shouting as he withdrew: "Tiger, tiger, tiger!" ”

There is an idiom that says three people become tigers, but according to common sense, there will be no tigers in the market at all, and they will not run out of Shanglin Yuan, right?

Only the slaughtering boys were quite calm, carrying sharp knives with round eyes, only relying on the courage of the people, they gathered on the road, wanting to make a cameo appearance to fight the tiger heroes.

But they were violently pushed away by the soldiers, and when the crowd parted, the first thing Fifth Lun saw was a ......

"Giant!?"

……

The "giant" arrived at the Xinfeng City Gate in four carts pulled by dark horses, and then entered on foot. He walked in the middle of the road, nearly half a body taller than the city people, what is it called to stand out from the crowd, this is it!

Fifth Lun saw that this person was at least a foot long, and he was a real great husband, so he only said secretly: "It's a lot taller than Yao Ming, right?" ”

Not only is it tall, but it is also strong, with a large body of ten girths, like a wild bull, and his body is covered with a leopard skin and a big fur, and what hangs on his waist is not a sword, but a thin iron rod with two arms and thumbs thick, I don't know what kind of weapon it is.

The most exaggerated thing is that this giant is still holding two dog chains in his hands, and at the end of the chains are actually two big insects with hanging eyes and white foreheads!

The two tigers entered the market street, and they were not afraid of people, and saw a child who was separated from his parents in the chaos sitting in the middle of the street and crying.

Fifth Lun was shocked, but it was too late to save him, only to see that the tiger had only taken a step, but was pulled back by a chain of giants, and the butcher boy took the opportunity to rush up and take the baby away.

The giant's strength was too great, and the tiger rolled on the ground in embarrassment, and turned back viciously and roared at his master, how could the king of beasts be so cheaply behaved?

But the giant only looked at it coldly, and the man and beast looked at each other for a moment, and finally it was the tiger who coaxed it, and roared twice unwillingly, leaned down to admit it, and continued to walk forward.

After all, if this giant had a sliding shovel, he would have been able to disemboweling the tiger.

When the giant came to the gate of the first general's mansion, the two tigers squatted left and right, allowing him to reach out and rub his head, and under his hands, the tiger was as well-behaved as a little milk cat.

Like the people who came back to see the excitement one after another, this scene, Wu Lun also lived for a long time, and only smacked his tongue and said secretly: "This is ...... The Great Beast Tamer? ”

If you put on the horn helmet again, you really look like a bull hunter.

It was still Peng Fengyan who told him on the side: "This person's name is Ju Buba." ”

"Big Mac?" Fifth Lun suddenly realized, of course he had heard this word, but he didn't know the source.

Feng Yan said: "Ju Wuba is a native of Penglai in Qingzhou, more than a month ago, he heard that His Majesty was going to conquer the Huns, so he went to meet the Suye (Jiaodong) Lian Rate, and expressed his willingness to join the army and fight Hulu......"

"This man must sleep with a large drum as a pillow, and eat with an iron spoon, the pair that hangs from his waist. Thinking that this was the talisman of Shenrui, he sent people and hundreds of people from Huben to send to Beijing, and they arrived today. ”

Isn't that my script? Fifth Lun couldn't cry or laugh, it seems that he is not the only one who knows that there are tigers in the mountains and prefers to go to the tiger mountains.

Although it was similar, the imperial court obviously attached more importance to this giant, and the door of the general's mansion was opened, and Lian Dan personally went out to greet him, and also read out the edict of Emperor Wang Mang.

Probably speaking, the giant is left in Xinfeng to join the army, and his surname is called Jumu, because the birth of this giant is the overlord talisman sent by the deceased Empress Dowager Wen Wang Zhengjun to her nephew Wang Mang...... Fifth Lun didn't understand what kind of logic this was.

Lian Dan finally announced: "Born a giant, he can control the tiger and leopard, so as to control the enemy, why not destroy the enemy?" It is the emperor so the new room is also supplemented, when the production of the big armor high car, Meng Ben's clothes, so that the giant mother is the captain, in order to hit the slave, the town of the world! ”

The lieutenant is a middle-level officer of the new army, with five or six thousand people in charge and a rank of six hundred stones. After all, he is too impressive, and Wang Mang, who likes Fu Rui, naturally wants to make a big publicity.

But in this way, it became more and more prominent that the fifth Lun who was the first to invite Hu to attack the ordinary people, and the first general Lian Dan personally welcomed the giant into the general's mansion, but the fifth Lun could only stand in the crowd like a minion.

He had been chatting with Feng Yan until the evening, and Lian Dan met Wu Lun in his busy schedule.

This often defeated general, who was only forty years old, but had already grown gray hair, did not even raise his head the whole time, and only arranged a military position for the fifth Lun at will.

"On the orders of His Majesty, you will be the military Sima, and the name will be 'Xiaoyi Sima'."

……

"The Sect Master is back!"

When he heard the news that the Fifth Blessing was shouting for his grandson to come home, the Fifth Bully was roasting a fire in front of the stove, burning his favorite chestnuts by the way.

He stood up at once, and immediately ran to the door of the kitchen to look, and after thinking about it, he didn't rush out. Just go back to the stove, take out the hot chestnuts with tongs and blow them cold, then peel them carefully and put them in a small bowl.

Grain after grain, and when the bowl of golden corn meat was filled, Wu Lun came to the door of the kitchen.

"Father, I'm back."

"Hmm."

The fifth tyrant turned his head and was calm, but he was a little distressed when he saw that his grandson was in the dust, and he was much thinner than when he went.

He didn't know how to express himself, so he only handed over the pottery bowl in his hand, and asked Wu Lun to come over and bake the fire while eating.

"Father's health is okay?"

"Okay, I can eat three bowls of rice a day, and I can sleep with two maidservants."

"During my absence, there was no chaos in the clan, right?"

"What could happen?" The fifth tyrant waved his hand: "The first and fourth are busy making briquettes in the coal kiln to make money, although there are imitations on the market, but the newly made beast head briquettes are selling well in the rich and noble." ”

"And the third, sixth, eighth, and seventh, and the fourth, shall open lime mines for thee, and make the cement, and each shall receive a share of the profits. When it snowed a few days ago, the first level wanted to let the clansmen continue to work despite the severe cold, but I was scolded by me and the eighth straight, so I didn't dare to shout. ”

He looked at his grandson: "Since you paid taxes for the people of the entire clan during the August and autumn calculations, who dares not to support you and support the Fifth Clan?" You should be the suzerain, and although you are not there, the patriarchal law you have established is still being followed. The children of the clan, especially the Seventh Clan, are also restrained by me to prevent their generations from bullying the weak. ”

Fifth Lun breathed a sigh of relief, stuffed chestnuts into his mouth, and Fifth Tyrant said again: "Is your master buried properly?" ”

"It's all settled, senior brother Hou Ba stayed to guard the tomb for three years, and the local officials also respect Yangzi very much, so don't worry."

The fifth tyrant said with emotion: "Last year, Yangziyun came to the Fifth Mile Spring Festival, although he didn't understand what he said, but it can be seen that he is a good teacher, and it is your luck to be his apprentice." ”

Speaking of this, the old man's eyes lit up: "By the way, in this way, my family will not only have a valve reading, but also a teacher?" ”

Wu Lun said with a smile: "Father, what Yangzi passed on to me is not the Five Classics, but the miscellaneous studies he studied himself, which is not beneficial to being an official." ”

The fifth tyrant doesn't like to hear this: "Anyway, it's all learning, and if the villagers can't understand it, there are five classics and six classics now, and it can't be added to seven classics and eight classics in the future?" ”

Although he has long been accustomed to resigning without saying a word to his grandson, the fifth tyrant is still that official fan in essence, and the fifth Lun has good news to tell him today.

The fifth tyrant glanced at the fifth Lunde's cheek again, and couldn't help but scold: "Why did you lose so much weight?" ”

Fifth Lun said: "Five days is enough to serve a vegetarian diet on the road, but Hou Ba, Wang Long and even Huan Tan can insist, how can I open a small stove by myself?" ”

The fifth tyrant asked the cook to prepare the meal immediately: "I will make up for it at home in the past few days, you missed the wax sacrifice, and there was a lot of cured meat left on that day, and the sheep was fat." ”

Fifth Lun had already eaten all the chestnuts in the bowl: "I won't stay for a few days, my father, I have visited the shogunate of the first shogunate of Xinfeng, received the seal, and before the first day of the first month of January, I will go to serve in the Hongmen Pig Raid Yong Camp." ”

When the fifth tyrant heard this, he was a little worried about his grandson's journey, but he still couldn't help but dance with his eyebrows: "Oh? What kind of official did General Genshi make you do? Is it really a military candidate? ”

"It's one level higher than the military candidate, but it's still a yellow ribbon."

Fifth Lun was not so happy: "I became a military commander, with a rank of 500 stones, as a soldier, and a thousand soldiers!" ”
