The sixth and eighth round: The Ming army did not know how to rob money, and the righteous army killed people unjustly

1

The breeze is blowing, with a slight coolness, thinking that the midsummer has gone, and the autumn is quietly coming.

Since Wolf Ba left Hanzhong, Chang Leopard's dart game has never gone wrong, his reputation has gradually recovered, and his business has become bigger and bigger. Although he failed to kill Xiaolong and Jinzi, the two of them made a big fuss in Biyuntang and took more than ten lives, committed a shocking case and were wanted by the government. Therefore, Chang Leopard is proud all day long, full of scenery, eating, drinking and having fun every day, enjoying spring supper at night and night, hugging left and right, so comfortable.

On this day, I heard that there was a beautiful newcomer in Xiaochunlou, and suddenly my heart rose again, and I happily brought a few guards to have fun, threw out ten taels of silver, and specified that I asked the newcomer to accompany me. The old bustard was overjoyed when he saw the silver, and brought Yuan Cai, who had fallen here in Qianxi County, Guizhou, to his eyes and said: "Outside the regular staff, this is a small Caicai." Chang Leopard looked at it, Xiao Caicai's face was pink, his eyes were black, his nose was high, his lips were tender red, his neck was fair, his twin peaks were protruding, his willow waist was like silk, his hips were on stilts, his thighs were slender, and he was a bright and beautiful woman. Chang Leopard carefully looked at the beauty from top to bottom, was ecstatic, and immediately added five taels of silver to the old bustard, and ordered a banquet to be set up to drink with the beauty. The old bustard raised his eyebrows, left a small color color, and went away happily.

The snow moon wind flowers are affectionate, and the Taiping Xiao drum is accompanied by the morning bell.

The clouds in the north are light and the rain is in the south, and the disaster is several times away.

As the old saying goes, things prosper and decline, and happiness leads to sorrow, which is really the truth of the ages!

The old bustard had just arranged a table of wine and food, and Chang Leopard and Xiao Caicai had not yet taken their seats, and the guard suddenly pushed the door in. Chang Bao was furious: "Damn, the sky is falling? The guard was shocked, and said with a panicked look: "Master, the dart bureau is coming to report, and the adult Huang Guan led five or six arresters, and twenty or thirty sergeants broke into the dart bureau to see the master. Chang Bao was shocked and scolded: "These corrupt officials, on weekdays, do good fortune and power, loot the people's fat and people's ointment, and now they have forced Diao Min, they have the ability to fight it, but they want Lao Tzu to pay money, it is really unreasonable!" ”

Chang Bao was still in a mood at this time, stood up, kicked the stool under his feet, and quickly returned to the dart game with the guards, saw Huang Guan, and said with a smile: "Lord Huang is coming late at night, and the villain is not well greeted, damn it, damn it!" Huang Guan got up and said: "Outside the regular staff, come, let me introduce you, this is General Cao Wenzhao." ”

Chang Bao was secretly surprised, Cao Wenzhao is a favorite general under the military department Shangshu Hong Chengchou, the champion of the three armies, this time the leader of the troops is stationed in Hanzhong, the power is overwhelming, even the prefect of Hanzhong has to listen to his dispatch, he came to me in person, it seems that I am in the catastrophe.

Although Chang Bao was shocked in his heart, he pretended to have a smiling face, and hurriedly bowed: "Ouch, it turned out to be General Cao, disrespectful and disrespectful." Cao Wenzhao returned the salute slightly, and said coldly: "Outside the regular staff, this general will not beat around the bush with you, this visit, just ask, is the regular staff out of silver, or out of people?" ”

Chang Leopard's heart was shocked, and he didn't know how to answer. Huang Guan said: "In addition to the regular members, now the national disaster is at the head, General Cao was sent by the imperial court, and will soon go north to encircle and suppress the thief army, how can the court soldiers be few and widowed, lack of food and clothing, the prefect decided that all men from fifteen to fifty years old in Hanzhong will follow the army to suppress thieves, and those who really need to keep men at home will be allowed to pay ten taels of silver and one man with a low number of men, and those who have more than ten acres of fertile land will receive five taels of silver for the army, and those who are more than 100 acres will receive thirty taels of silver for the army, and those who are more than 1,000 acres will be paid one hundred taels of silver. Standing outside is one of the best people in Hanzhong City, only you have more than 100 guards in this prestige dart bureau, you either put your hundreds of people in order to go out with the army to kill the enemy for the country, or according to the price of ten taels of silver to a man's salary, the two are at the mercy of the king's choice. ”

Chang Bao listened to the words of the two, and was extremely angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to contradict it, and when he was in a dilemma, the sword Miao Ren said: "Lord Huang, forgive the villain's bluntness, the deployment of troops and the encirclement and suppression of thieves is a matter for the imperial court, and we are a civilian......

"Presumptuous!" Cao Wenzhao slapped the table, and pointed at Miao Ren and shouted: "When the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, the day when the jade is burned, the thieves will not be eliminated, and they will all be powder." ”

Cao Wenzhao's rebuke, thunder and electric anger, made Miao Ren quite embarrassed, quick knife Miao Yi, golden gun Miao Zhong, silver hammer Miao Xin saw that the eldest brother was humiliated, furious, Miao Xin was young and frivolous, not afraid of authority, and said coldly: "The four brothers of my Miao family have been traveling south and north for many years, and they still don't know what powder is?" General Cao and the thief army have been defeated repeatedly, and they must have a deep understanding, I don't know if it's okay? ”

Cao Wenzhao is a fierce general, but recently the resurgence of the righteous army, Cao Wenzhao confronted it, repeatedly lost the soldiers, and was full of fire and nowhere to vent, Miao Xin's words came out, straight to the sore spot, Cao Wenzhao couldn't help but be furious, shouted: "Come on, drag this thief out and cut it." Suddenly, five or six sergeants stepped forward to capture Miao Xin, and when the Miao brothers saw this, they each drew their weapons and glared at the sergeant, and the two sides were tense and held each other for a while.

Chang Bao saw that the matter was big, and hurriedly drank Miao Ren, Miao Yi, Miao Zhong, and Miao Xin, and Huang Guan also stepped forward to persuade Cao Wenzhao: "The general is angry, this person is a dart master outside the regular staff, young and ignorant, I hope the general will forgive." Chang Bao also bowed his hand to Cao Wenzhao and said: "General, Miao Xin doesn't know the height of the sky, and he still hopes that the general will have a large amount, and he is willing to help him pay 1,000 taels, and I wish the general to break the enemy as soon as possible and return triumphantly." ”

Cao Wenzhao is a famous general in the imperial court, how can he stand such humiliation? He didn't answer, he stood up suddenly, and walked straight out, followed by twenty or thirty sergeants, Huang Guan was shocked, and followed out with a catcher in fear.

Out of the gate of the Yangwei Dart Bureau, Cao Wenzhao ordered: "Guard this gate, and those who dare to go out without permission will be killed." Huang Guan asked in surprise: "What is the general going to do?" Cao Wenzhao ignored Huang Guan and rode away with three sergeants.

Chang Bao saw Cao Wenzhao indignantly gone, frightened in his heart, and was complaining that the Miao brothers should not contradict Cao Wenzhao, and suddenly heard that the guards came to report, Cao Wenzhao left more than 20 soldiers to guard the gate, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Chang Leopard was shocked, expecting that this Cao Wenzhao was a brave general who could recruit good soldiers, killing people like hemp, bloody nature, and being humiliated today, he would never let go of the Yangwei dart game easily. The matter has come to this point, while he has not yet mobilized men and horses, it is the best policy to flee quickly, so he ordered: "Now there is only a fish to die and the net is broken, all the brothers prepare weapons, and rush to kill with me, whoever dares to stop will be killed." ”

Chang Bao personally carried a large bag of gold and silver treasures, with the four big dart masters and more than 30 thugs, seven or eight family members, a total of more than 40 people came to the gate with their own weapons, and the guard sergeant wanted to intercept it, Chang Bao said: "Bullshit officers and soldiers, don't dare to kill the rebels, but play prestige in front of Lao Tzu, kill!" ”

Chang Leopard slashed all the way, there were only more than 20 sergeants, out of disadvantage in numbers, and Chang Leopard and the four brothers of the Miao family had extraordinary martial arts, so they couldn't resist, and after slashing and killing, they were forced to retreat.

Chang Leopard opened a bloody road, if he left, maybe he could make a comeback in the future, but he just got up for a while, just cared about killing happily, chasing the sergeant and slashing and poking, and had long forgotten that Cao Wenzhao had returned to the camp to move troops. When he was rushing to kill, he suddenly heard a loud shout behind him, and when he looked back, he saw Cao Wenzhao leading two or three hundred ironclad soldiers to cover up and kill, Chang Bao panicked again, and wanted to escape, but was blocked by both sides, so he had to fight hard. After the chaotic battle, Chang Leopard was stabbed three or four times, and when he looked closely, all the four dart masters were killed, and more than half of the thugs and family members were killed and wounded, so he was shocked and anxious, and in a panic, he threw down a large bag of gold and silver, abandoned the knife and walked over the wall.

Cao Wenzhao saw that he had killed the four Miao Xin brothers, but he fled Chang Bao, and said angrily: "Search me door to door." "The sergeants were ordered, under the pretext of searching for thieves, breaking into the Yangwei Dart Bureau and nearby people's houses, forcibly looting, no different from bandits, the people cried for their fathers and mothers, and the sorrow shook the sky. After a short time, the soldiers did not find Chang Leopard, but they all returned with gold and silver and other things. Cao Wenzhao was overjoyed and secretly thought to himself: The salary of the army on this expedition has been settled, and Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong cannot be destroyed. Cao Wenzhao gave an order: "Since the thieves can't be found, the troops will return to the camp for the time being, and don't disturb the people." ”

was about to be a teacher, but when he saw several fast horses flying over, it was Huang Guan who came with the prefect Di Hui and the officials of Hanzhong, Di Hui said: "General, don't disturb the people!" ”

Cao Wenzhao replied coldly: "How did this general disturb the people when he arrested the thieves? ”

Di Hui got off his horse and pointed at the people who were crying all over the street and said angrily: "The general is so nonsense, causing chickens and eggs to be beaten in Hanzhong City, isn't it disturbing the people, what is it?" ”

Cao Wenzhao smiled gloomily: "This general will soon recruit the rebels, and the imperial court ordered the local parents and officials to prepare food and salary, but they did not do their best, but they still came to blame me, what is the reason?" ”

Di Hui said: "The food and salary will be prepared in the near future, and it will be guaranteed to be sent to the army in ten days. How to explain to the people of Hanzhong? ”

Cao Wenzhao said angrily: "Ten days later, the traitors have all been killed in Hanzhong, you can leave the food and salary to the rebels!" Di Hui, I don't know what you say, every time you prepare food and salary, seventy or eighty percent is deducted by you privately, and less than thirty percent goes to the hands of the soldiers, I don't report you to the court, but you use the court to suppress me? ”

When Di Hui saw Cao Wenzhao poking at his sore spot, he immediately sweated profusely, and he didn't dare to say more. Cao Wenzhao snorted, mounted his horse, and scolded Di Hui, Huang Guan and other officials: "A group of hypocrites! Those who mislead the country and the people and the world are exactly what you are waiting for! ”

Chang Bao had no sword, no money, and no guards, and escaped alone, hiding in the dilapidated Wanshou Temple several times. Hurriedly bandaged the wounds on his body, and was about to go out, but when he heard the noise of the soldiers outside the temple, Chang Leopard was frightened, so he had to climb into front of the Bodhisattva statue and hide under the table. The next morning, when I was about to come out, I saw that I was covered in wounds, and when I went out, I was found by the sergeant, and I must have lost my life, so I didn't dare to go out. After hiding like this for three days and three nights, hungry for three days and three nights, I suddenly heard two women enter the temple to burn incense, and one said: "Thank God, those bastard officers and soldiers are finally gone, and the people can live a few days of peace." The other said: "Yes, although Cao Wenzhao said that he repeatedly fought against the Manchu Qing Dynasty and suppressed traitors many times, and his contribution was not small, he was a master who did anything to win the war. Then he heard a woman in front of him: "Such a general, no matter how great his merits, is also a harmful spirit, I really hope that one day the rebels will kill him, and the people will be at peace." ”

Hearing this, Chang Leopard was overjoyed, and suddenly came out from under the table and laughed: "Hahaha, are they gone?" The two women were worshipping the Bodhisattva, when they suddenly saw such an unkempt and dirty madman coming out from under the offering table, and they were so frightened that they screamed and ran away.

At this time, Chang Leopard had no worries, and walked out of the broken temple to the street, but the wound had suppurated, the pain was unbearable, and he did not eat or drink for three days and three nights, and his physique was extremely weak, and he fell to the ground without walking twenty steps. Chang Bao struggled to get up, step by step towards the downtown sway, suddenly saw a steamed bun shop with hot buns, Chang Bao was very hungry, moved over, grabbed two or three with both hands to eat. When the shopkeeper saw that this person was unkempt, he was furious, and he picked up the flat pole and scolded while beating: "I'll beat you shameless beggar to death, see if you still steal food!" Chang Leopard was furious, and wanted to kill this bold shopkeeper, but he was starved for three days, and his whole body was weak, and his whole body was weak, and he had to let the flat burden rain on his head.

At this moment, Chang Bao understands the magic of rice steamed buns, if there is no food to eat, you will be hungry for a few days and nights, no matter if you have great skills, it is also a god who has entered the mortal world, and everything is empty.

Chang Leopard Bun couldn't eat it, but was beaten up, so he had to move to the Yangwei Dart Bureau with difficulty, hoping to go to the Dart Bureau to eat a beautiful meal first, and then let the guards send him to the hospital, and when his strength was recovered and his injuries were healed, he would come and kill the pickled slave who sold the buns with his own hands.

However, when I arrived at the door of the dart game, it was empty, where was there still half a figure? No, there are more than 100 people in the Yangwei Dart Bureau, only twenty or thirty people were there when the accident occurred that day, and the rest of the guards and dart masters were outside.

Since then, Chang Bao has completely become a beggar in Hanzhong City, living by begging every day, and a month later, because the wound was not treated in time, the injured left foot turned out to be crippled. Fortunately, one evening, Chang Bao sat on the side of the street begging, and met an old doctor who had fled from outside, and the old doctor saw that he was pitiful, and applied medicine to him for free, and finally healed the other wounds, and finally saved his life.

After a few more months, Chang Bao came out to beg as usual on this day, and saw that the people on the street looked panicked, and the officials, big and small, the rich, and the landlords were busy packing their carriages and horses and luggage, and from time to time there were officials and soldiers running in threes, fives, and fives on the streets. Chang Bao was feeling the novelty, and suddenly saw five men and one woman around a table drinking tea in the teahouse, Chang Bao saw that the six people were brightly dressed, had a good temperament, and were leisurely, and thought that they were rich masters, so they stepped forward and begged: "Brothers-in-law, make it convenient and reward some food money!" One of them took out five or six copper coins and stuffed them into Chang Leopard's hand, Chang Leopard raised his head and thanked him, and a man next to him saw it and exclaimed: "Chang Leopard? ”

Chang Bao was taken aback, looked at the man, but didn't know him, and asked, "Who is a good man?" The man smiled and said, "I only heard that you suffered a great calamity, but I never thought that you would become like this?" ”

Chang Leopard sighed: "Alas, this may be providence. ”

In addition, the four men and one woman were also surprised when they heard that this person was Chang Leopard. Chang Bao saw that these people seemed to be very familiar with him, so he asked: "How can the good man know me?" ”

The man smiled and said, "Don't hide it, I'm your old enemy." ”

Chang Bao was shocked when he heard this, and came to the door of the enemy's house by begging, and it seemed that his life was resting today. The man saw that Chang Leopard was frightened, and hurriedly relieved: "Don't be afraid, can you remember the wolf tyrant?" ”

Chang Bao exclaimed: "Are you a wolf tyrant? ”

The man smiled and said: "Exactly, I was entrusted to come to Hanzhong to fight against you, but you invited Xiaolong, I lost the competition with Xiaolong, and withdrew from Hanzhong according to the agreement." After returning to Luoshan, I deeply felt that I couldn't bear the employer, lost my trust in others, and damaged the morality of the rivers and lakes, so I invited a few good brothers to come back to Hanzhong to fight the dragon again, who knew that the dragon and a Rakshasa girl named Jin made trouble in Biyuntang, killed Tian Ren in anger and fled without a trace, and you were chased and killed by Cao Wen's official army, and you disappeared. I was going to play for a few days and then leave the country, and I didn't want to see you here. ”

Chang Bao exclaimed: "You want to kill me? ”

The wolf said domineeringly: "You are already like this now, how can I still do it." After speaking, he took out two taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Chang Leopard: "You go!" ”

Chang Bao took the silver, his heart was bitter and bitter, he couldn't help shedding tears, and he didn't thank him, he turned around and left. Tang Hai shouted again: "Chang Bao, tell you a piece of news, Cao Wenzhao was ambushed by the peasant rebel generals in Hutou Town, Zhenning County, the king of the troubled world and the stars of the sky, and the whole army was destroyed, and Cao Wenzhao killed himself. ”

Chang Bao turned his head sharply and asked, "Really?" Tang Hai nodded, Chang Bao was overjoyed, looked up to the sky and laughed: "Chang Bao has no regrets in this life!" Thank you, thank you! Thank you! After speaking, he laughed wildly.

Tang Hai sighed and groaned softly: "Fortune and misfortune change every day, and the number of poor and rich is naturally determined. Mo Kua is a precious food today, who knows tomorrow death and life. ”

Ye Yang saw that Chang Leopard had walked away, and turned back to Lin Yuan and said, "It's strange, Brother Wolf Ba didn't thank him for giving him silver, and he said thank you three times when the eldest brother said something." ”

Duan Qi said with a smile: "The eldest brother revealed the news to him, which is more precious than the wolf tyrant's two taels of silver." ”

Lin Yuan said: "Big brother, since the matter of the wolf bully brother is gone, let's go to Zixian as soon as possible." ”

Shan Yong said: "Big brother, I heard that the peasant rebel army has approached Hanzhong, although the big and small bureaucrats, rich landlords, and all kinds of powerful people in the city are nominally organizing the army and the people to defend the city, but secretly they have arranged for their families to flee with their furniture, and even many people are afraid that the rebels will slaughter the city, and they are busy packing their bags and preparing to flee to the mountains outside the city, why don't we leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible." ”

Tang Hai smiled and said, "Tang Hai thinks this Hanzhong City is quite good, and he wants to stay for a few more days." ”

Lin Yuan said: "What if the righteous army really slaughters the city?" ”

Ye Yang said with a smile: "I'm afraid of a bird, if others don't mess with me, I won't mess with him, whoever wants to mess with me, whether he is an official or a rebel, the master will kill them all." ”

Duan Qidao: "Big brother is waiting for the righteous army, right?" ”

Tang Hai smiled and said: "The seventh sister is really insightful, Tang Hai can't hide the seventh sister with this little caution, yes, I just have to wait for them!" ”

Six people lived in the inn and just roamed the streets every day. On the fifth day, the righteous army easily invaded the city, the big and small officials and landlords, rich families, all kinds of tyrants, and local tyrants and gentry who did not flee in the city of Hanzhong were all raided, many of them were in the evil township, and the people were caught and beheaded to show the public. There were also rebels who opened warehouses to release grain, cooked porridge to help the poor, and the people rushed to rob them. Tang Hai six people walked on the street, looked left and right, and also went around to join in the fun, and suddenly saw a ragged beggar, it was Chang Leopard, Tang Hai stepped forward and said: "Chang Leopard, there are righteous soldiers distributing gruel on the back street, and the poor can also receive dozens of copper coins, you can go quickly." Chang Bao thanked Tang Hai and went straight to the back street.

"Big brother, the rebels have killed a lot of people recently, and people with a little bit of family resources don't dare to stay in the city," Shan Yong said. Tang Hai sighed and said: "Yes, those who are evil should naturally be punished, but many wealthy families are not evil, and the rebels kill indiscriminately regardless of good and evil, how can they be worthy of this word 'righteousness'?" ”

Tang Hai's six people went around in a circle, and then returned to the door of the inn, saw a group of people coming from afar, and when they got closer, it turned out that it was more than a dozen rebels and people who pulled a beggar and dragged them towards the west gate.

"Isn't that Chang Leopard?" The wolf bully was shocked, and when Tang Hai heard it, he looked closely and it was really Chang Leopard. Tang Hai hurriedly grabbed an old man who was following the crowd and asked, "Old man, why did the rebels arrest a beggar?" The old man said: "You don't know, this is a fake beggar, he is a bully in Hanzhong, he does evil on weekdays, today he pretended to be pitiful and came to beg for porridge to eat, fortunately I recognized it." Tang Hai said: "Where are you going to arrest him?" The old man said, "If these wicked people are not removed, how will the people have a bright future?" Of course, he was taken to the west gate and beheaded. ”

Tang Hai was full of surprise when he heard this, after the crowd walked over for a long time, Tang Hai was still silent in thought, Shan Yong and Lin Yuan saw this, and walked over and shouted softly: "Big brother! Tang Hai came back to his senses and said silently: "I don't kill Boren, Boren died because of me!" ”

Tang Hai guessed that the official army would come to recover Hanzhong sooner or later, so he decided to leave and go south to Zixian County, Sichuan Province to eradicate the strong little red wolf in Zixian County. The six of them rode until dark, and when they saw that there was no inn before and after, Tang Hai said: "It's dark, and the horses are tired, so it seems that they can only rest for one night in the wild." Ye Yang said: "The forest here is deep and windy, and it is cool. Wolf Ba dismounted and jumped onto a big bluestone, and said with a smile: "I have already found a good bed." Lin Yuan also chose a big stone and said, "I also have a landing tonight." Shan Yong saw that there was a piece of grass, so he hurriedly spread out his clothes and said, "Seventh sister, you sleep here, and I will go find a place for my eldest brother." Tang Hai said: "I don't need it, I can sleep by leaning on this tree." Ye Yang opened the baggage by himself, took the wine and meat and ate it, and Lin Yuan and Wolf Ba also came over to eat some. Tang Hai said to everyone: "You all sleep, I'll be on duty for the night." ”

Everyone was tired, and after eating, they all fell asleep, Tang Hai leaned under the tree and meditated for a long time, then got up and walked slowly in the forest, and before he knew it, he had walked half a mile away. At this time, in the dead of night, lonely and silent, Tang Hai had a lot of thoughts, and he couldn't be pure, thinking of the predecessors who sighed that the world was more and more tuned to the "Zhai'er Order", he couldn't help but murmur softly:

The hands rub themselves, the sword is sharpened frequently, and there are many husbands in the world in ancient times.

The green mirror rubbed, the white head staggered, and the ambition was trapped in the nest.

Whoever has a reputation knows how to be honest, and he doesn't need Xiao He to learn from a wide range of talents.

Hurriedly fleeing the coast, anxious hidden mountains.

There was a storm on the ground today.

After Tang Hai finished chanting, he heard a voice behind him, crisp and loud, and listening carefully was also a chant, but he heard:

Q: Who was the hero?

A farmer, a fisherman.

Obscure Nanyang, living in the East China Sea, succeeded in one fell swoop.

The name of the gossip map is Wolong, and the six Tao calligraphy is in the flying bear.

The hegemony is empty, and the resentment is endless.

Shu road cold clouds, Weishui autumn wind.

Tang Hai turned around suddenly, and saw a gentleman in a white robe, with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a smile. Tang Hai was shocked and took advantage of the moonlight to take a closer look at this person, but saw that his face was pale, his smile was bowing, and he was full of kindness.

Tang Hai expected that this person had no malicious intentions, so he moved closer, bowed and saluted: "Mr. is elegant, Tang Hai is polite." ”

The man also bowed and saluted: "It turned out to be the commander of the governor of Guizhou back then, the hero praised by the people in the world, and the first thief in the world who was rewarded by the imperial court. ”

Tang Hai was shocked, how did this person know my origin? Then he asked, "How does the gentleman know?" ”

The man said: "The general was a young man and a hero, and he devised a strange plan to break the traitors and relieve the siege of Guiyang, who in the world does not know?" Who doesn't know? ”

Tang Haidao: "Ashamed! Dare to ask Mr. Honorable Name? Why in the middle of the night in the wilderness? ”

The man said, "I am an idle man in heaven and earth, and a wild man in the world." Kyushu travels all over the world, and the wilderness and suburbs are my home. Walking at home today, I don't want to meet heroes! ”

Tang Hai thought secretly: "It turned out to be a reclusive master who didn't want to reveal his name, judging by his appearance, he should be slightly smaller than me, why do you also live in seclusion as an elder?" I'll try him again. Tang Hai arched his hand and said: "Mr. is young and talented, I don't know what to do for a living?" ”

The man smiled but did not answer, and said to himself:

Between the mountains and rivers of life, the king is called the king to fight for Xuanyuan.

On horseback, I looked up at the moon, and it was in vain to laugh at him as a hero.

Tang Hai thought about it, isn't the first word of these four lines of poetry connected to "people are called Ma Xiao", it turns out that this person is a strange person in the rivers and lakes, and Ma Xiao who laughed at Emperor Guangzong and was arrested by the government.

Tang Hai straightened his clothes, solemnly bent down and bowed: "It turned out to be Mr. Ma Xiao, who dared to laugh at Emperor Guangzong and predicted that there would be a great disaster twenty-four years after the Great Tomorrow, Tang Hai was the first to behold." ”

Ma Xiao laughed, waved his hand and said: "Jokes, jokes, jokes, how can jokes be taken seriously?" Ma Xiao looked at Tang Hai and said: "The general sings, has the ambition to dance the golden sword again, and laughs proudly, I don't know what the general wants?" ”

Tang Hai said: "The world is in chaos, the demons are dancing wildly, and the people are waiting for them, although Tang Hai has the heart to serve the country with his fists, he hates not to restore the road to heaven, Mr. can have a clear road to Tang Hai?" ”

Ma said with a smile: "The general's ambition is commendable, Ma Xiao doesn't dare to talk about it, but today, the Ming court is unknown, and the righteous army is unjust, I hope the general will become famous as soon as possible and return me to a peaceful world in China." After Ma Xiao finished speaking, he bowed again and said, "Say goodbye!" ”

Tang Hai returned the salute and asked, "I wonder if I can see Mr. again in the future?" ”

Ma smiled: "When he is not satisfied, you and I may be able to meet!" Ma Xiao stepped on the black and left, chanting while walking, Tang Hai listened carefully, it was Ma Zhiyuan's "Toad Palace Song":

Xianyang hundred and two mountains and rivers.

Two words of fame, a few fights.

Xiang abolished Dongwu, Liu Xingxishu, and dreamed of Nanke.

Han Xingongwu's general testimony, Kuai Tong said that there was a wind demon.

Success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He.

Drunk by him.

As soon as Ma Xiao left, Shan Yong flew over, and when he saw that Tang Hai was unharmed, he was relieved, and Qi asked, "Who is the eldest brother talking to?" Tang Hai pondered for a long time and replied, "Master." ”
