What's more, it is the royal family of the Western Jin Dynasty, not to mention the extreme luxury and poverty. The feat of this generation of princes is the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, which shattered the good world.

At that time, like Sima Xin, will he not be pitted to death? After all, he can be regarded as a friend he knows, save him and correct his "problem".

So, Zheng Sheng asked, "Brother Shi, do you think you can be regarded as a gentleman now?" ”

Sima Xin's expression was gloomy: "Not really." ”

"Today, you almost revealed your own identity, and the consequences are unpredictable. If the officers and soldiers come to you, you will be a hostage in the hands of thieves. The thief will flee because of you, this is the way of a gentleman? ”

"That's actually fine. In case the negotiation fails, the thief knows that he will not escape the dead, and he will definitely cut you, and the gentleman will die because of the gentleman. ”

"But you have to keep your life and become a gentleman. Therefore, a gentleman should also do the right thing in the right place! ”

Sima Xin was silent.

"For another example, as a general, like you, always pay attention to the rules, how can you be harmonious with the soldiers, the generals are not in harmony, and the war will be unfavorable."

Sima Xin's face flushed.

"For another example, I heard that your father personally cultivated and was well-known in the world. But will you be able to farm? ”

Sima Xin gritted his teeth: "I have ploughed the land!" ”

"It's just for show."

Zheng Sheng felt that what was brewing over there was a volcano that was about to erupt. So, he hurriedly replied, "Actually, you can be cautious and upright in doing things according to the rules of the nobility, but you are not a gentleman." In the future, he will be a qualified nobleman at most. ”

Sima Xin's heart was shaken, "Only, a qualified nobleman?" ”

"Yes, what is a gentleman? Perfect people. The perfect person is one who can cope with any situation. But now you clearly want to do something good, but you do something bad. ”

"If you don't chase this today, someone will go. If you and I stay at home, everyone will go to arrest us wholeheartedly, so naturally you don't have to spend time looking for us. Thinking about it this way, are we delaying everyone's time? ”

Sima Xin didn't speak again, but lying on the bed, the words still echoed in his ears: "Is this only a qualified nobleman?" "So what are the others?

The next day, Zheng Sheng and Sima Xin had breakfast at Li Xun's place. After that, he told them that the officers and soldiers had not gone, and they could not get out of the mountain, so they could only continue to stay in the cottage, and he allowed the two to walk around the village.

After the two left, Beigong De on the side didn't understand: "Now that the situation is critical, why don't you let them go, but keep them?" ”

Li Xun smiled: "Although what they said seems to be fine, I still think they are hiding something." ”

"......" Beigong De, so he had to get down to business, "After Liu Dong came back, Gao Xu and the others kept asking everyone to go out together and find Liu Zi as soon as possible. ”

"It's impossible to set off with the whole camp. The official army is still there, and it is only right to hold on to the cottage to protect everyone. He either doesn't understand, or he is too selfish and wants to take charge of the power in the village alone, so he doesn't care about the safety of the whole village! ”

"This matter ......"

"Don't think about it, I'll fight them to the end."

At this time, Sima Xin and Zheng Sheng, who had breakfast, were strolling around the village together.

When they got up early, they changed into ordinary clothes and mixed in the cottage, Zheng Sheng didn't seem to be an outsider, but Sima Xin was out of place.

However, the residents of the cottage knew that they were guests and were very polite to them.

When I came last night, it was dark and the night was deep, and I couldn't see the whole picture of the village. Today, Zheng Shengcai sees the whole picture of Lehuo Village in his eyes.

During the day, he found something he hadn't discovered yesterday. For example, the slope on one side of the North Valley is not high, so most of the residential areas are built on this side of the gentle slope, and the houses are neatly arranged, terraced, and lined up, and it must have taken a lot of thought to build them.

And when I looked up at the top of Beishan Mountain, there were wooden fences and flags on it. If you look closely, there are also figures.

The defense is really tight, Zheng Sheng can't help but sigh.

Compared with the high mountains in the east and south directions, the north mountain is obviously much lower, some people attack the village, in addition to breaking through from the west gate, you can only climb the mountain to sneak attack, the preferred direction is of course the north mountain.

However, the village also took this into account and built a checkpoint on the top of the mountain.

Walking out of the residential area to the flat land, there are already people busy in the fields at this time, and then listening to the children's voices from time to time, the occasional rooster and dog barking, looking at the old people who are leisurely everywhere, and the smoke of the cooking in the air. Zheng Sheng remembered the famous sentences he had recited, "The traffic is strange, the chickens and dogs smell each other, the yellow hair hangs down and is happy."

It's really a peach blossom paradise.

When Zheng Sheng muttered, Sima Xin didn't hear clearly, so he asked, "What did you say?" ”

Zheng Sheng said these words and sighed: "Don't you think it's really appropriate to use it here?" ”

Sima Xin was not very happy in his heart, "Indeed. But this is true in every village. ”

"It's different, after all, it's all people who have escaped the world."

"Where do these words come from?" Sima Xin changed the topic and asked again. He thought that his own knowledge was not bad, but he was stumped by Zheng Sheng, which made him feel very embarrassed.

"Well, this is from an ancient book...... Well, it was me who suddenly thought of an article. Zheng Sheng's scalp was numb, and he said that he would not copy the public, and he made an exception!

Sima Xin was surprised and admired, he looked around and sighed, "Really talented." Write this article, please give me a sneak peek. ”

"No problem."

After that, they met a few children who came running, including Tian Bao, whom they met yesterday.

When Tian Bao saw Zheng Sheng, he ran over very happily: "Wang Xiang, they are my friends." Let's go to the fish again! ”

Zheng Sheng didn't understand Tian Bao's brain circuit for a while, is there a relationship between friends and hot fish?

Probably because he thinks they are his friends, Zheng and Si are also his friends, so everyone is friends, so everyone is going to go to the fish together?

Zheng Sheng shook his head, "We don't have fish or fire now, and we can't get out of the village, how can we burn fish?" ”

The children were also very disappointed, Tian Bao thought about it and gave an idea: "Let's go to Nanzhai and light a bonfire there, and there are fish in the stream." Wang Xiang, let's go together? ”

Zheng Sheng said helplessly: "The adults in the village won't agree, right? ”

The children were happy for only three seconds and were discouraged, Tian Bao's eyes rolled: "I'll go and ask Uncle Li, he will agree." Go home and fetch salt, fire, and knives. Wang Xiang and Brother Shi are the main blisters. How about we do our part? ”

All the children applauded, and without asking Zheng Sheng's opinion, they dispersed.

Zheng Sheng smiled bitterly and said to Sima Xin: "It seems that we are going to play with them." ”

Sima Xin smiled, thinking that Zheng Sheng was the same age as these children, but he was much smarter. Na Tian Bao probably has some background and a bit of aura, but he is only a ten-year-old child.

Listening to Zheng Sheng's words, he doesn't think of himself as a toddler of the same age, right?

Tian Bao and the others soon returned, and Zheng Sheng went to Nanshan with them.

The South Mountain is steep and extremely difficult to climb. And Tian Bao's Nanzhai in their mouths is actually the name of their family, which is actually a small cave less than half a zhang deep, and there is indeed a small stream flowing in front of the cave.

Zheng Sheng was surprised, it turned out that there was still living water in the cottage, but he didn't know where the source was.

However, Zheng Sheng found that there were indeed fish in the crystal clear water, but most of them were half-inch-long fry.

Use these for barbecue?

However, the answer was soon revealed, and just as they were lighting the bonfire, the two adults brought two baskets of large live fish.

Tian Bao is very loved by Li Xun! Zheng Sheng couldn't help but think.

There are fish, fire and condiments, Zheng Sheng scraped the scales and peeled the fish with peace of mind, and assigned the children to go to the bamboo forest on the side to break down the old bamboo, he used a knife to cut and split, made a good roasted branch, and arranged Sima Xin and Tian Bao to help him sprinkle salt on the peeled fish.

"Brother Shi, since it is a roasted fish, you can do the thing of roasting fish with peace of mind, you don't have to be restrained anymore!" Zheng Sheng said with a smile.

Sima Xin quietly went to sprinkle salt.

Zheng Sheng peeled the fish and instructed them to sprinkle salt before sticking them on the ground near the campfire.

The children waited excitedly, and many of them drooled. Zheng Sheng finally said the words "you can eat" in their expectant eyes.

Distribute the grilled fish to them, and I won't repeat the appearance of eating, in short, it is not very elegant.

Sima Xin continued to concentrate on sprinkling salt, which he clearly regarded as an important mission.

At this time, two young men came from the east, and Zheng Sheng glanced over, both of them were strong men with tigers on their backs. In the enemy camp, Zheng Sheng was more afraid of such a muscular man. After all, they may be unreasonable!

It's just that one of them seems familiar!

Zheng Sheng was thinking about it when the two walked towards them. Zheng Sheng took another look and recognized it, wasn't the guy who was a little taller the same person who escaped with Liu Yang yesterday?

Zheng Sheng was shocked, not good! I only remember that Liu Yang knew them, but I forgot that this person also knew them!

But Zheng Sheng watched the man sweep across his face, his face as usual. Zheng Sheng was a little relieved, he didn't recognize him.

After all, he was in command at the back at that time, and this guard was one of the only two who rode a horse at that time, Zheng Sheng could recognize him, but he couldn't recognize Zheng Sheng.

But what about Sima Xin? This person and Liu Yang have both collided with Sima Xin.

As soon as Zheng Sheng thought of this, the two had already walked over, and the young men looked at them with some fear, and the slightly shorter man picked up one, took a bite, and spit it out, "Bao'er, this is the delicious roasted fish you said?" Waste these live fish! ”

"You can trick the children into playing, if you dare to play tricks in the village, Lao Tzu will not spare you!" He said viciously.

Tian Bao said angrily: "Liu Chi Province, you go away!" ”

Before Liu Chi could speak, an old man walked slowly, "Bao'er, come, let your grandfather taste your roasted fish." ”

Tian Bao excitedly leaned over and handed the fish in his hand to the old man to eat. The old and the young were suitable, and Liu Chi couldn't please them, so they left in a hurry.

The man really didn't recognize him? Zheng Sheng was puzzled, turned his head to look at Sima Xin, and couldn't hold back a smile.

Sima Xin's face, which he had washed in the morning, was now covered with black marks on the left and right, and he looked like a cooking man. No wonder I can't see it, how could that person think that the dignified county guild deigned to be here, and the untidy appearance of the hot fish?
