Chapter 862: Wu Xiaobawang
"Hey, aren't those people Xiao Hehe?"
A group of people walked around the city for most of the hour, and then rode to the Gusu Terrace, not far southwest outside the city, and were sitting in front of a collapsed and abandoned palace to rest, a guard pointed to a few people who were riding horses down the mountain.
"It's really them, call them over to play together, and go back to the city together later!" Chen Xu asked the guards to wave them up.
When they met Chen Xu here, Xiao He, Liu Bang and others were also very happy, and after dismounting and tying their horses, the two groups of people joined together to visit this once glorious huge palace complex.
But right now, this Gusu platform has long been full of ruins, and the collapsed palace has been covered by the crazy growth of thorns, weeds and trees, and all that can be seen is a large area of ruins.
Therefore, looking at the dilapidated and barren scenery in front of them, a group of people also sighed.
"Wu State, like Great Qin, started in the wilderness, successively destroyed the East Huai Ten Yi, defeated Shen Chen, Xu Cai and other eight countries, and finally achieved a hegemon, but time has passed, the glory is no more, and there is no longer a sigh!" Xiao He shook his head and sighed.
"Wu Guosheng was in Lu, defeated by the husband, this Gusutai is their last glory, I heard that the husband was buried in the wilderness by the people of Wu after committing suicide, and he didn't even know the grave, a generation of overlords finally ended up like this, it's really lamentable!" Cao Shen shook his head.
"The king of the ages, a hundred years of glory, although Wu Hook is profitable, but also can not save the poor and extravagant, this Gusutai is said to be more than 300 zhang high, 84 zhang wide, more than 100 palaces, the building is gorgeous, the scale is large, there are nine steps of songs, the five lakes are famous, swallow Wu Yue, the two generations of emperors of Lu and Fucha are here to raise hundreds of concubines and concubines to sing and drink and feast at night, what is the difference with the deer platform of the king of Shang, the poor and extravagant want to spend the people's power, this is the way to take trouble!" Liu Bang also looked at the ruins in front of him with affection and shook his head.
"Yes, I also heard that Fucha likes to build palaces very much, so Gou Jian did what he liked, arranged for 3,000 craftsmen to go into the mountain to cut down big trees, and almost moved the logs from the mountains to block all the waterways under the mountain, and finally paralyzed Fucha so that Yue Guo got the opportunity to develop and grow, so the exterminator of Wu was not Gou Jian, but Fucha himself...... When Gusu was on Wuqi, King Wu was drunk in the palace...... The husband was frolicking excessively, lustful and lewd, and finally buried the Wu Kingdom. Chen Xu couldn't help but nod and sigh.
"When Gusu was on Wuqi, King Wu was drunk in the palace...... Xu Gongzi's sentence is exquisite, Gou Jian endured humiliation for the restoration of the country, dedicated the concubine Xi Shi to the husband, the husband was very happy, built the Spring Festival Palace on the Gusu Terrace, built the dragon pool, set up a green dragon boat in the pool, and Xi Shi was a water play every day, and the favored woman finally destroyed the country, and Xi Shi did not know what to do...... "Xiao He nodded his head.
"It is said that Xi Shi is beautiful if the heavenly immortals can sing and dance, but unfortunately they will not see it in the end, it is really heartbreaking!" Cao Shen stomped his feet.
"Why is Brother Cao complaining, women, those who cause trouble in the country, if you are the king of Wu, you will definitely destroy the country!" Liu Bang teased.
"Destroy the country, if such a legendary woman can taste *** pleasure, she will die without regrets!" Cao Shen shook his head with regret on his face.
"Haha, isn't there a lot of beautiful Huansha and mulberry picking women in Wumei, Gusutai is abandoned like this, it's not worth watching, I'd better go back to Wuhu Park early to eat and watch the play, and find a few beautiful women like Shih Tzu to serve at night, wouldn't it be refreshing!" Liu Bang laughed.
"What Brother Liu said is that there are a lot of snakes, ants and mosquitoes on this mountain, and it is not early, so I should go down the mountain and go back to the city to find a place to rest and play!"
"Yes, yes, a mosquito bite out of a lot of pimples, itchy and unbearable......"
"Sister-in-law, let's go, there's really nothing to see on this mountain!"
Under the persuasion of a group of people, Chen Xu also felt that this dilapidated place was really not worth visiting except for nostalgia, so a group of people packed up their horses and went down the mountain along the Jiuqu steps that were once brilliant but were now dilapidated and overgrown with barren grass and thorns.
At this time, the sun is about to fall into the western ridge, the sparkling Taihu Lake is blue, the lake wind blows, and the fishermen's rough songs come faintly from the fishing boats that return late, and there are also soft and tactful songs of mulberry picking and the song of the Huansha woman, which is intoxicating to listen to.
Soon a crowd entered the city through a gate.
"This is the craftsman's gate, legend has it that King Wu ordered the master swordsmith to cast a sword here, hence the name!" Jiang Chuxing rode a horse and walked beside Chen Xu to continue to be a tour guide.
"The cadre is the most famous craftsman in the land of Wuyue, but unfortunately he was killed by the king ......of Chu, and he has never passed it on since then."
"The two swords of the male and female are lost and missing, and we will never see them, so what can I ......do?"
A group of people walked while shifting the topic to the legendary couple of sword-casting Mo Ye, and after entering the city, they walked not far away, and the bustling crowd in front of them suddenly came with a panicked and frightened scream, and then they saw that the street instantly jumped chickens and dogs, and the civilians who set up stalls and carried burdens were dodging on both sides, just when a group of people were surprised, they saw that among the separated crowd, a group of topless teenagers with some strange tattoo patterns and carrying knives, guns and sticks came along the street, and the first teenager was seventeen or eighteen years old. The body is burly and strong, with a straight nose and wide mouth and wide eyes, swaggering and rampage under the arch guard of a group of teenagers, scolding and scolding the back basket and bamboo basket that overturned the ground, provoking passers-by to avoid screaming.
I'm going, Crazy Boy?
Chen Xu's face was a little dazed, looking at this group of tattooed teenagers who were swaggering through the market.
"Yu~~" A group of people stopped in the middle of the street almost simultaneously with their horses.
"Who is this? Why is it so arrogant? Xiao He looked solemnly at a group of teenagers who were whistling over.
"The young man at the head has also heard that he is the grandson of Xiang Yan, a famous general of the former Chu, named Xiang Ji, who has been good at martial arts since he was a child, and a large number of Wuzhong disciples are entangled around him, fighting and brawling in the city all day long, very arrogant, and everyone in Wuzhong calls him the little overlord!" Jiang Chuxing twitched a few times and said.
"Little Overlord...... It seems that it is indeed domineering, so swaggering through the city and ramming the people, can the police of the county government and the people of the county governor's office turn a blind eye and let them swagger through the city? Liu Bang pulled his beard and muttered.
"Hehe, has Liu Prison Peng forgotten the ruffians in Pei County?" Chen Xu said with a smile.
Uh~ Liu Bang was stunned for a moment, his face was red in an instant, and Xiao He and Cao Shen also turned red at the same time and stopped talking.
Chen Xu stayed in Pei County for a few days, and walked around the city and outside the city several times, and he also knew a lot about the style of the ruffians and hooligans in Pei County.
Moreover, Liu Bangxiao and the others are the leaders, Chen Xu suddenly mentioned it, and they were naturally able to hear the sound outside the strings.
This group of roaring teenagers are entangled together to cause trouble in Wuzhong, in fact, there is no difference from what they did in Pei County, not to mention that the tall and burly young leader who is the leader is from a famous family, and he is the grandson of the famous general Xiang Yan of the Chu State, and no one dares to provoke this name in Wuzhong alone.
Although the state of Chu was destroyed, the Chu people have belonged to the state of Chu for more than 100 years since Chunshenjun was sealed in Jiangdong, so the people here not only retain some traditions of the state of Chu, but also inherit many of the clothing characteristics and living habits of the Yue people.
The Yue people have lived in the hot southeast since ancient times, so they have a tradition of 'breaking their hair and tattooing'.
The so-called 'broken hair' is to trim the hair, unlike the Central Plains countries that have a tradition of parents who like to keep long hair, but like to cut short hair, which is also related to the fact that it is often related to living in water, and long hair is not easy to dry and not easy to wash.
And 'tattoo' is the tattoo of the fake word, the Yue people like to tattoo some patterns on the body, but also to expose these patterns for others to see, just like some male animals like to show off some parts of their bodies to show off their strength to confuse the enemy.
And the most tattooed pattern of the Yue people is the dragon, and the dragon is the totem of the Yue people, and it is also the ancient god they worship.
And as the dragon culture slowly integrated from the Yue people into Chu, and then expanded to the whole of China, now the dragon pattern has spread throughout the whole Daqin, although there has not yet been a dragon descendant, but the worship of the entire Chinese dragon totem has begun, even the banner of the Great Qin Empire is a dragon pattern, and the emperor's robe also shows the dragon pattern to show honor.
(Note: Keeping short hair is not from the west, the Yue people in the southeast have been keeping short hair for thousands of years, but it is not as short as in later generations, and the habit of keeping long hair in the country also began after the Confucian boom, as for tattoos, especially tattooing dragons on the body, that tradition is earlier, it is estimated that tens of thousands of years ago the clan tribe began, and there are many tattoos in the Central Plains. )
"Well, who are you? How dare you stand in our way? A group of swaggering teenagers walked three feet in front of Chen Xu and the others, and slowly stopped, and the little overlord led by him was extremely arrogant and pointed at Chen Xu and the others with a dark wooden stick in his hand and shouted.
"Choking~choking~choking~~"
The guards guarding around Chen Xu drew their swords almost at the same time, and looked at this group of old boys with condescending horizontal eyebrows.
As the guard of the Marquis of Qinghe, as the former royal forbidden army, the only task is to protect the Marquis of Qinghe, as long as Chen Xu gives an order, this group of guards can pounce on this group of teenagers in an instant.
And just as the guards took out their knives, several teenagers around them also reached out and prepared to take out the handcuffs on their waists.
Chen Xu took the hat, and with a glance of his eyes, he saw a young man standing behind Xiang Yu, who was Shang Qi who was secretly arranged by him to hook up with Xiang Yu, but at this time, he was still naked, with a snake pattern tattooed on his chest, which didn't look much different from Xiang Yu and others, but Shang Qi didn't recognize Chen Xulai.
"Are you still going to give way, and you want to be beaten?" Hundreds of teenagers all pointed at Chen Xu and the others with the messy knives, guns, sticks and sticks in their hands and yelled, and the situation was arrogant.
