Volume 1 The First Encounter in the Warring States Chapter 008 The Journey of No Return (II)
Zhang Wu also thought it was good when he heard it, so he put away his sword and led Lu Yu to find a place to take a bath.
Lu Yu followed Zhang Wu all the way, carefully watching the road all the way, the mountain road is small and tortuous, and it is very steep in some places, and a person who is not careful may fall down. Seeing that Zhang Wu was walking like flying, he fell behind several times, and the childlike heart accelerated his pace to catch up. After walking about a mile of winding mountain road, Lu Yu heard the sound of rushing water. There is a mountain on one side and a cliff on the other, and when you pass by a house, you see that the windows and doors are closed, so no one is at home. It seems that the houses of more than a dozen families in Majiagou are built by the mountains, and Majiagou must be very large, otherwise there is only one house one mile apart.
After following Zhang Wu and turning two corners, about half a mile of mountain road, a beautiful waterfall appeared in front of him. The waterfall that rushes straight down the mountain forms a pool of green water here; The mountain road under your feet suddenly became wider, from about one meter to five or six meters. But the water overflowed from the pool, and the mountain road under the foot of the mountain continued to flow down the cliff. In fact, it is said to be a pool of green water, but it is enough to have an acre of size, in addition to the cliff side, the left and right sides of the pond are towering green peaks again, forming a same word shape.
Finished. Lu Yu secretly complained in his heart. This is an unfathomable mountainous area, and the mountain road in front of it is cut off by waterfalls, but I don't know how the people here got up the mountain in the first place? He asked Zhang Wu to take him to take a bath, it was true that he wanted to take a bath comfortably, but the main thing was to explore the road first and see how to go down the mountain. Now I have only walked through this only mountain road, and it is the end of this place, how can I go home in the future?
Zhang Wu had already taken off the long-sleeved shirt that Lu Yu had been wearing since he woke up, and jumped into the water with a "whoosh", splashing Lu Yu's body.
"It's so comfortable!" Zhang Wu came out after diving ten meters away and beckoned Lu Yu to hurry up and get into the water.
Lu Yu sighed, thinking about it, anyway, take a shower first and then slowly think about going back.
After the injury on his body was healed, Zhang Wu gave him an extremely simple coarse cloth deep coat, and Lu Yu felt awkward wearing it all the time. That dress, the placket only reached the thigh, which was much shorter than Zhang Wu's, and there were no pants here! Lu Yu was puzzled for a long time, and in the end, Zhang Wu gave him the so-called "pants", but there were only two trousers! And this kind of pants needs to be tied to the feet, and if you don't tie it, you can't wear it at all.
took off his clothes, Lu Yu only had a pair of gray underwear left, and he also jumped into the pool.
This pair of underwear is already the last item that Lu Yu has left on his body since the plane crash. The shirt was "confiscated" by Zhang Wu, and Lu Yu didn't want to come back, it was all torn anyway, and Zhang Wu didn't know how often to take a shower, let alone wash clothes.
After swimming for a while, Lu Yu and Zhang Wu leaned against the shallow water on the shore, Zhang Wu rubbed his body and asked: "There is a question that has been hidden in my heart for a long time, and I have always wanted to ask Brother Lu, I don't know whether to talk about it or not?" ”
Lu Yuxin said that this is not nonsense, if you don't say it, you don't ask. But he still learned Zhang Wu's tone and replied: "Brother Zhang, it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”
Zhang Wudao: "When I first saw Brother Lu, I found that my brother's dress was strange, I didn't know... The brother stepped over the fig leaf, which seemed very peculiar, and it was not made of silk, I don't know what it was made of? ”
Lu Yu laughed, he didn't expect this Zhang Wu to even know what underwear was, and asked rhetorically, don't people in Majiagou wear underwear?
Zhang Wu replied with a blank face: "We Central Plains people call it a shin coat or trousers, but the purpose of the trousers is to cover the shins, and the legs are kept warm in winter, but I have never seen such a brother as Lu... It's called 'panties'. ”
Lu Yuqi said: "Men and women are the same? ”
Zhang Wudao: "That's right, isn't this the case in Brother Lu's hometown?" ”
Lu Yu said with a smile: "Zi said, 'Don't look at indecent things', if both men and women don't wear underwear, it's not a mess." ”
Listening to Lu Yu's words, Zhang Wu was even more surprised, looking at Lu Yu as if he was looking at a psychopath.
"The 'son' in Brother Lu's mouth refers to Kong Qiu?"
Lu Yu replied without thinking about it: "Yes, Confucius, Brother Lu should have heard of it." ”
Zhang Wu frowned, "Kong Qiu, I know that he has become a Confucian sect and has a large number of Confucian disciples, but his thoughts are all emperor's words, and they are not practical at all. He asked Lu Yu again, "Could it be that Brother Lu is a disciple of Confucianism?" ”
Lu Yu couldn't laugh or cry, those who have studied nine years of compulsory education can almost be said to be. But Lu Yu saw that Zhang Wu seemed to be a little prejudiced against Confucius, so he said: "The younger brother is not a disciple of Confucianism, but has only read a few books from him. ”
Zhang Wu let out a thoughtful "oh", and said, "Kong Qiu's set of ideas is very popular with the monarchs of various countries, but it oppresses the people even more, and it is not worth talking about. ”
Isn't it the evil things of Kong Lao Er, when slavery began to decline, and the restoration of Kong Qiu was of course welcomed by the candidates, and the working people were disgusted.
Lu Yu said suspiciously: "Has Brother Zhang ever left Majiagou?" ”
Zhang Wudao: "Of course there is, sometimes I go out to run errands every few days." ”
This sentence is exactly what Lu Yu wants, and it just happened to explore the way out from Zhang Wu's mouth. So he asked Zhang Wu: "But just now Brother Zhang took his little brother here to take a bath, and I only saw this trail along the way, but I don't know where the road to the outside world is?" ”
Zhang Wu didn't think about it and said: "There is a hole under the waterfall, you can see it through the waterfall, and if you go out from there to the west for twenty miles, you can lead to the nearest city to Majiagou, called 'Chen County'." ”
Sighed again.
Lu Yu remembered that he had a worried face as soon as he came back, so he asked him what was the matter and if he could help.
Zhang Wu smiled bitterly and said: "Majiagou is indeed a rare fairy land in the world, it is quiet, and there is no war, the Chen County outside is like a castle that isolates Majiagou from the outside world, out of Chen County, the outside is very different." ”
Lu Yu couldn't help but be suspicious when he heard Zhang Wu say that he had gone out and talked about war.
First of all, when I woke up, the room revealed a primitive smell; second, after waking up, Zhang Wu's appearance was extremely strange in terms of clothing and behavior; Third, what I have seen since I came out of the house has not been in touch with the world at all.
Since Zhang Wu often goes in and out of Majiagou and the outside, it is impossible for him to be ignorant of the outside world.
He wondered if he was still dreaming.
What Majiagou, Chen Jun, this ancient name, as well as the clothes Zhang Wu wore, the daily necessities used, and even the sword he took out, it was a one-to-one antique bronze sword, is there such a primitive place in our country, and it just so happens that Zhang Wu and Majiagou are all antiquities lovers, they came here together, and made the whole place look like an ancient one?
This must be a prank.
But before the plane crash, he and Zhang Wusu didn't know each other, and then he not only saved himself kindly, but also healed his injuries, and now he actually wants to teach him to learn swordsmanship, which can be seen to be from the true feelings of the heart, how can it be fake?
What exactly is this place?
Lu Yu didn't dare to think further.
When I came up from the water, it was getting dark. Zhang Wu said to Lu Yu: "Maybe it won't be long before we leave Majiagou." ”
Lu Yu asked why.
Zhang Wudao: "Today, the countries are at war, the people of the world are not at peace, since the war between Qin and Chu, Majiagou once became the boundary between Qin and Chu, neither belonging to Qin, nor belonging to Chu, but in today's world, it is difficult to ......fight alone with Qiang Qin."
Lu Yu hurriedly interrupted Zhang Wu's words: "What are you talking about, Chu State, Qin State?" Nowadays?! ”
Zhang Wu replied with a puzzled expression: "Did I say something wrong?" He asked Lu Yu again, "Although Brother Lu's hometown is far away in Chuting, it is impossible for him to be completely ignorant of the current situation, right?" ”
Suddenly changed his face, and asked with a blushing face: "How were you injured at that time, and why did you appear in Majiagou?" ”
Lu Yu's brain was blank, and it was like a thunderbolt, and with a "buzz", it felt like the brain was not supplying enough oxygen, and the scene in front of him suddenly went black.
Warring states?!
This feeling is definitely not a dream. Definitely not. Lu Yu told himself. There is such an absurd thing in the world, did you really travel to ancient times? And it was such a coincidence, and he just happened to travel back to the Warring States without bias, could it be that God really gave himself such a "good" gift, giving him the opportunity to crack that strange dream and contact the Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the ages? But how can a person from the 21st century accept this kind of thing?
Resurrection of the dead?
Lu Yu denied this again. In his opinion, the so-called "borrowing the corpse to resurrect the soul" should be that the original body is no longer there, but the soul is attached to another body, and now he has lived in this place for a few months, and the clothes are the best proof. How could there be anything wrong with such a tangible feeling?
lives between Qin and Chu, and also Qin and Chu people.
The two armies do not communicate with each other, and they are not surnamed Qin or Chu.
Qin intimidates the world, and Chu Ba regrets people's hearts.
With the change of morning and twilight, when will you see peace?
When Lu Yu opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the grass bed in the original house, and the dim light in the oil lamp told him that it was night.
It was the cacophony of people outside the room who woke him up.
Thinking back to all the strange things that happened when he woke up, as well as Zhang Wu's language and strange style, he was telling Lu Yu that it was very likely that he had really crossed over! This kind of old-fashioned thing happened to me, this is really a "big gift" from fate.
Maybe the people of Majiagou are all together. Lu Yu thought to himself.
Sure enough, when Lu Yu came out, he saw people of all ages sitting on the ground or kneeling on one knee with a bonfire as the center, and some people didn't know where to move stones as stools. Lu Yu nodded in his heart, there were a total of nine people, including Zhang Wu, and three of them were women. All of them wore ancient attire.
Costume bonfire?
One of the women, who was about sixteen or seventeen years old, found Lu Yu at the door, called "Senior Brother" to Zhang Wu, and pointed to Lu Yu with a confused face.
Suddenly, nine pairs of eyes looked at Lu Yu in unison.
Zhang Wu beckoned, motioned for Lu Yu to sit down beside him, and then introduced Lu Yu to everyone, and introduced everyone one by one.
Lu Yu was irritable in his heart, and he was only impressed by a few of them, and the rest couldn't remember the names at all. These people's names are too strange to remember.
One of them was the woman who first discovered Lu Yu just now, it was Ling Fan, who Zhang Wu called her "Seventh Senior Sister", with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, skin like condensed fat, a bun at the back of her head, and a wide-sleeved tight-fitting robe painted with curly patterns on it. This tight-fitting robe perfectly reflects her slender waist, and people can't help but want to hold her in their arms, but they are afraid that a little force will break her beautiful waist. His eyes were deep and dark, as if they were brighter than the campfire. The beauties Lu Yu has seen are like Xiaolin, and they are still a few points inferior to Ling Fan.
This beautiful woman actually has a fairy-like attraction, which makes Lu Yu can't help but take a few more looks.
And the other one is Liaotong, who is called the "fifth senior brother" in Zhang Wu's mouth. This person is about fifty years old, burly, stout and dark, with a voice like a wolf, eyes as big as a cow, and a bearded image that reminds Lu Yu of Cheng Biting Jin in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. This person's temples bulge high, and he looks like a practitioner, and he must be as powerful as an ox.
The last one who remembered the name was a kid, about seven or eight years old, tall and thin, with big cheekbones, but a bit collapsed nose, definitely not a handsome face, Lu Yu was impressed by him because he showed special interest in Lu Yu and sat next to him, he reported his name to Lu Yu Xiao Zhengwen, and said that he had never seen Lu Yu like this, who was so seriously injured, and he could miraculously survive.
I heard Zhang Wu say: "I'm afraid that Majiagou is no longer a safe place to live, and the Qin people will attack Zhao again, forcing the king of Zhao to send the son of the stranger back to Qin, it seems that the ambition of the Qin people is already very clear, and the next step is to attack Wei, Han and other countries, and gradually devour all countries." ”
Lu Yu was extremely shocked to hear every sentence, King Zhao is King Zhao Xiaocheng, and the other person is King Zhuangxiang of the Qin State in the future, and he should only be the prince at this time. And his son is the powerful Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng.
Liao Tong snorted coldly and said, "All countries will definitely not sit still. ”
Zhang Wu said again: "Now the remaining four senior brothers are in the four kingdoms of Chu, Wei, Han, and Yan, according to the instructions of the master, our task is to unite the four senior brothers and persuade King Zhao Xiaocheng to join forces with the four kingdoms to conquer Qin. ”
Everyone nodded yes.
Lu Yu was shocked, and the four words "Joining forces to attack Qin" hit his heart like thunder. I didn't expect Zhang Wu's group of people to hold a meeting to discuss such a historic event, and I wondered if the several famous wars in history that combined with the Qin Dynasty had anything to do with these people or with these people's divisions?
I only heard Zhang Wu say to Liaotong again, "Fifth Senior Brother, please stay in Shouchun with Brother Li to assist Second Senior Brother." ”
Liaotong and the old man in a sixtieth armor shook their hands and said hello in unison.
Then he said to the other two women: "Senior Sister Jiu, Miss Ling, and Brother Gao, please go to Xinzheng to meet Senior Brother." ”
It turns out that there are also people who are not the same family. Lu Yu thought to himself. The ninth junior sister looked a few years older than the seventh junior sister Ling Fan, and her appearance was average, but she was also a beauty; And the spirit girl is much worse, her appearance is mediocre, if she dresses as a man, she must also be a burly man.
In addition, the tall brother is very handsome, his skin is as white as a woman, and he speaks softly, every word he says makes Lu Yu shudder heavily in his heart, which reminds him that the homosexual style in ancient times is not much better than in modern times, but it generally appears in princes and nobles, how can ordinary people have such eccentricities. Like Qu Yuan, who is famous in the Chu State, there is a legend that he has an ambiguous and inseparable complex relationship with the King of Chu.
Zhang Wu said to the beautiful Ling Fan again: "The seventh senior sister will go to Daliang with me to meet the third senior brother, and then enter Handan to persuade King Zhao." Before the words fell, Xiao Zhengwen shouted loudly to follow Zhang Wu along.
This Zhang Wu, I picked the most beautiful seventh junior sister to do the task together, if it were me, I also wanted to cut the line. Lu Yu thought to himself.
I heard Zhang Wu say again: "Xiaowen and Ji Shaoyong brothers also go with me, and they will have a long experience." ”
Xiao Zhengwen and another man who was more than ten years older than him cheered in unison.
Zhang Wu Zhengse said: "This is not a child's play, you don't have to go to play." ”
Xiao Zhengwen and Ji Shaoyong couldn't help but stick out their tongues and quieted down.
Lu Yu was embarrassed that he didn't know how to speak, but Zhang Wu saw through what he was thinking, so he asked him, "I don't know where Brother Lu wants to go?" ”
Lu Yu greeted Zhang Wu's mother in his heart. Do you really want to go back to your hometown "Chu Ting"? If these people are really not insane, or pranks, and now that they are really in the Warring States Period, their "hometown" is almost a barren land, do they want to go back and create a race with the local natives or savages?
Secretly complaining in his heart, Zhang Wu said again: "If Brother Lu is not in a hurry to return to his hometown immediately, it is better to walk with me and see our war-torn Central Plains." ”
Lu Yu couldn't ask for it in his heart, because the final destination of their trip was to go to Zhao State, and at this time, Ying Zheng was working as a proton in Zhao State, which was just right for him to have a glimpse of the future Qin Shi Huang's demeanor, and there were beautiful women accompanying him, how could he let go of this kind of good thing. Immediately said yes again and again.
Zhang Wu ordered everyone to pack their luggage and prepare to leave immediately.
Lu Yu found that Ji Shaoyong, who was more than ten years older than Xiao Zhengwen, remembered that when Zhang Wu introduced, he said that this person was from Haojing, that is, the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty, tall and big, and his eyes under the sword eyebrows were blazing, and he was also very handsome, but just now Lu Yu found that when he took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention, his eyes glanced at Ling Fan from time to time, revealing a strange look, and there was an evil aura on his body, so he immediately had a good impression of him.
Intuition told him that Lu Yu must not be a decent man, but he didn't know what role he played here?
Lu Yu has also taught himself some knowledge of the metaphysical atmosphere of people, although he can't say for sure, but sometimes those intuitions always tell him that he will not make mistakes.
Back in the house, Zhang Wu took out the bronze sword from the wooden box, took out another iron sword from it and handed it to Lu Yu, and said to him solemnly: "The matter of swordsmanship, I will explain it to you slowly on the way, I hope you are truly a brother with me, not a spy who was sent." ”
Lu Yuxin said that these boxes of things you dare to love are all arms, I don't know who they are, they always mention spies, I am a person who doesn't know anything, even if you want to be a spy, you should find out your bottom first. Besides, I have to weigh whether it is safe to be a brother with you, which of these things is not extremely dangerous in a room full of arms and conspiracies to attack Qin? If it's a bad person, maybe one day I Lu Yu won't be able to make his braids clear.
But the current situation does not allow Lu Yu to think about it more, if he hesitates a little, maybe this Zhang Wu will take it back, and Lu Yu will have to explain here.
After Lu Yu made a 10,000-weight guarantee, Zhang Wucai took out two sets of samurai clothes from another wooden box, handed one to Lu Yu, and asked him to put them on.
Lu Yu's set is red. It is said that the Wei people are still red, is it very popular to wear red into the Wei country? When he put on a samurai costume and held a sword in his hand, Lu Yu looked like an ancient chivalrous man, and even Zhang Wu couldn't help but praise Lu Yu.
It's a pity that there is no mirror, otherwise Lu Yu would have to take a look at how he looks in ancient costumes. This Majiagou is also so poor that there is not even a bronze mirror in Zhang Wu's house. But this way will be with that fairy Ling Fan, as a daughter's family, there should be a mirror on her body, from ancient times to the present, a woman's love for beauty will not change here, right?
Anyway, there is no way back home, it is better to follow them, find Qin Shi Huang first, and then talk about it, maybe you can solve your strange dream, and maybe even make a vigorous career.
Suddenly, I heard Zhang Wudao: "Since Brother Lu has woken up, this shirt will be returned to its original owner." ”
Lu Yu looked at it, and saw Zhang Wu holding his shirt in his hand, and hurriedly pushed it back, saying: "Brother Zhang saved the little brother, healed the injuries on the little brother's body, and taught the little brother so much, this shirt will be given to Brother Zhang, as long as the big brother is not shabby!" ”
Zhang Wu laughed, didn't say much, and put the blouse back.
