Chapter 3 Beacon Fire Extra Chapter Eastern Han Dynasty Funeral Song - The Beginning of the Legend (II)
"Zhang Ranming! Send me back soon! How can we cause the innocent to suffer again because of the two of us! Li Ying roared loudly.
Ran Ming is Zhang Huan's character, but in fact, they are both upright people, and their relationship on weekdays is not bad. But at this moment, Li Ying's heart was full of anger, even if the other party was also an old man who was over sixty years old, and he was six years older than him, he didn't care about it anymore.
"Yuanli, how can I not feel pain in my heart! But it was the two of them who willingly died for the two of you. Zhang Huan was not angry, but on the contrary, he was very sad.
"I can understand the righteousness of this, Yuan Li, don't let these Jianghu brothers sacrifice in vain, there are still things we should do in this world." Du Mi said with grief.
"Du Zhoufu! Do you even say that? I don't want you to be so greedy for life and afraid of death! β
"You know it's over, don't you?" Du Mi said with a gloomy expression.
On that day, in order to rescue Li Ying and Du Mi, two of He Xinghan's brothers volunteered to die as substitutes. The reason why he did this was just to cut off Cao Jie and other eunuchs from causing trouble in the world because of the search for the two.
After the transfiguration, the two brothers almost reached the point of being fake, but Li Ying and Du Mi said that they did not agree to anything, and finally refused to be rescued. Zhang Huan had no choice but to knock the two out and bring them out. The two brothers remained in prison in their place.
Although the guards in the prison were killed, Cao Jie and the others saw that the prisoners were not missing, so they just ordered a strict search for the rebels in the city, and did not do much.
Now, more than half of the more than 100 people who participated in the rescue have mixed out of the city, and only a few are protecting Li Ying and others.
Zhang Huan patted Li Ying's shoulder, "Yuanli, although we are old, we have not yet entered the ground, and a heart loyal to the Han is still there." Then we should do something for the Han and the people in the world! β
Li Ying clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and did not speak.
"My lords, the carriages and horses are ready, without further ado, let's get out of the city as soon as possible." In order to break the deadlock, He Xinghan stepped forward and said.
Zhang Huan looked at Li Ying and Du Mi, and nodded at He Xinghan.
β¦β¦
At the city gates, the guards were checking the people who came and went.
He Xinghan drove the carriage slowly, followed by several brothers pushing a flatbed cart, not far away, ready to protect them at any time.
"Stop, who's in the car?" When the carriage reached the city gates, the guards stopped it.
"Back to the military master, my father is seriously ill, and I am afraid that time is running out, so I want to go back to my hometown and let my father take a last look."
"Open the door."
"This ......" He Xinghan was slightly embarrassed.
"Hurry up!" The guards yelled impatiently.
"Yes! Be! He Xinghan pretended to be scared and hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, walked to the back and opened the door.
The guards looked around the back and looked into the car, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"This ...... It's ......"
There was only one person lying in the car, it was Zhang Huan, but even Cao Jie couldn't recognize him when he saw him now.
His face was covered with rashes, which had been caused by the poisonous hands of Brother Ho Xinghan, but they were nothing more than allergic red spots. But in the eyes of the guards, it was like something terrible.
"Hurry up and close!" The guards yelled as they covered their mouths and noses with their arms.
"Back to the military master, my father has smallpox, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to get to his hometown, I hope the military master will let him go, and a little silver will not be a respect." As he spoke, he took out the silver and handed it to the guards.
"Get out! Take it away, take it away! Get out of here! Don't infect Lao Tzu! The guard cursed as he dodged and retreated.
"Master Xie! The small ones are rolled. He Xinghan hurriedly got into the carriage again, flicked the reins, and walked out of the city gate.
After walking for a long time, it was already far away from Luoyang, and He Xinghan stopped the carriage in a wood.
"Alright, two, it's safe." Zhang Huan said while getting out of the carriage while scratching his face with his hands. If it weren't for his years of fighting and his determination, this itch on his face would have made him want to scratch it.
He Xinghan walked to the back of the carriage and removed the wooden planks at the bottom of the carriage, it turned out that there was a dark compartment under the carriage, and Li Ying and Du Mi were lying in it.
It's just that it's obvious that the two of them are very uncomfortable, they are sweating profusely, and the first thing they do when they come out is to gasp for air.
"Ahem...... Cough...... Ranming...... Cough...... The next time this sin ...... You're here to suffer! Li Ying bent over and glared at Zhang Huan.
Zhang Huan smiled helplessly and said, "Yuanli, you should study hard from Zhou Fu, but they didn't complain." β
Of course, Du Mi didn't complain, he hadn't caught his breath until now, and could only stare at Zhang Huan with his mouth open.
"Okay, let's stop laughing, let's talk about what we old things should do next." Zhang Huan restrained his smile and said.
"Alas...... The court has been filthy, and it will be difficult for us to help it, so for the sake of today's plan, we should first gather loyal and righteous people, and then do other things. Li Ying sighed and said.
"I heard that Master Zhang Jian is now in exile, he is lonely, and I am afraid that the situation is extremely difficult. Let's find him first, and then we can discuss it together. He Xinghan came over and told everyone his opinion.
"Okay, then let's go."
ββββββββββββββ
The yellow sand was all over the sky, and the cold wind blew on his cheeks, Zhang Jianqiang endured his thirst and walked forward with difficulty.
He was arrested by order of the imperial court, and was able to escape thanks to his friend Li Du. With the help of Li Du's power, he went into exile. Here, it is sparsely populated, and he can only get a little relief when he encounters nomadic people.
He didn't want to follow those people to the north, and in his heart, he always thought about the homeland of the Han Dynasty and the world he had fought for all his life. So, he walked back alone with difficulty.
Suddenly, he noticed a dozen people in front of him on horseback. At first, he thought he was hallucinating, but it wasn't until he heard the shouts of the person opposite him that he was sure it was real.
"Metaverse, is it Metaverse?" Li Ying put his hand to his mouth and shouted loudly.
Unsure of the identity of the person opposite, he did not respond.
Zhang Huan, Li Ying, Du Mi, He Xinghan and a dozen brothers soon came to his side, and everyone dismounted one after another and reported their names one by one.
"I don't want all the adults to go to the outside of the Seychelles to find the next place, so that Zhang Mou's feelings are embarrassed."
"Yuan Jie is a loyal and righteous person, even if I am far away, I will look for you." Zhang Huan said, handing him a water bag.
Zhang Jian took two gulps and asked, "Now that the Han family is in trouble, and the loyal ministers of the court and the central government are all persecuted, what are your plans?" β
Everyone lowered their heads, indeed, if the general Dou Wu couldn't clear the eunuchs, what could a few of them do.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a word below that I want to appeal to you." Zhang Jian suddenly spoke.
"Please." Zhang Huan said.
"I was able to flee here thanks to the people I had invested in along the way, but I have also heard that dozens of people have been killed because of me alone. We say that we want to save the world, but what is the world? Is it the deaf and incompetent emperor? Or the courtiers who fought for power? The real world should be these thousands of Han people! But who really spoke for them? Corrupt officials and heavy taxes make the people of the world miserable. In my humble opinion, why don't we speak for the people of the world from today, form a force, and live for the peace of the people in the world. Zhang Jian said impassionedly, although it was cold outside, everyone's hearts seemed to be lit with a fire.
"The Yuan Festival is a good statement! Why don't we really stand on the side of the people, speak for the common people in the world, and do what they dare not do! β
"Your lords' words make me admire, if there is anything that can be effective in the next, I hope you can speak!" He Xinghan was also very excited.
"And what should this force be called?" Dumi asked.
Zhang Huan stood in the cold wind, looked in the direction of the distant Hanting in the south, and said leisurely:
"Talking about heroic deeds at night, cutting off the old mountains and rivers of the turbidity. Let it be called the Night Edge, so that those who do not care about the lives of the people will be terrified in the ghostly assassination of us, and anyone who tries to cause trouble in the world will be unable to sleep all day because of our presence. β
More than a dozen people had a light in their eyes and rode on their horses, but unlike the confused eyes when they came, their eyes were blazing, and with faith, they walked towards the south.
The yellow sand is all over the sky, and the cold wind is still blowing, but it can't extinguish the hot fire in the hearts of these people.
ββββββββββββββββ
Sima Yi slowly closed the iron slip, as if he had personally experienced everything of that era and saw the blood-soaked land.
He stood up, faced the four sages, and bowed with a serious expression.
At the end of Tie Jian, there is the ranking of the first five virtuous elders, and at this moment, of course Sima Yi knows who the people in front of him are-Zhang Jian, Zhang Yuanjie.
"I don't want the old man to be such a famous person in the world, the students are too disrespectful." Sima Yi bent down and said respectfully. For such a loyal minister, he felt like he had a thousand pounds of weight at the moment, and he couldn't get up.
"Hehe, Childe doesn't have to be polite. This is all in the past, and now, the old man is just a person who is about to enter the earth, and he just wants to do something for this world with his last breath. The four sages said with a smile.
No matter how difficult the situation is in the future, or what kind of glory he gets, he will never forget to do his best for the Han and the world. Students will definitely make the lives of the people in the world rich, and let the Han people rise to peace all over the world! β
The old man believes that the son is not false, and he also believes that the son will build an immortal work in the future. Alright, that's all for today. β
As he spoke, the fourth old man got up slowly, he was nearly eighty years old, and his body was not as good as day by day. Although there are secret recipes for conditioning collected in the night forward, the years do not seem to have mercy on these old people.
It wasn't until the door of the dossier room was gently closed that Sima Yi straightened up.
It has been several years since he came to the Yefeng Northern Hall, and this is the first time that Sima Yi feels that the figure of the four sages who has begun to be rickety is so tall.
The blade of the long sword has been damaged, and it can still be punished. The reputation of the history is defeated, and the blood is loyal.
With the blood of loyalty, righteousness and righteousness flowing in his body, no matter how time passes and how tortured the years are, the iron bones will not change.
Sima Yi thanked God in his heart for letting him know such a group of heroes who could sing and cry......
