The old beggar turned around, and a group of beggars finally arrived at a broken temple, which enshrined the statue of Taiyi God.

However, the Chinese people would rather believe in God than believe in it, so they left this dilapidated temple to give these beggars a place to stay.

The old beggar panted and carried Mi Zhen to the station, sat down behind the half-crippled statue, and a group of beggars scrambled to open the things in their arms, precious jewelry, hairpins were thrown on the ground by dirty feet, and food was the first thing they chose.

"Meat!" A beggar smelling the smell of meat said excitedly, he desperately inserted the carton, and a piece of barbecue quilt caused a crazy robbery as soon as it appeared.

The old beggar laughed and scolded: "There is a lot of food in it, and it has been robbed!" ”

The old beggar was a very authoritative man here, and the beggars scattered in a hurry to look for others.

At this time, a roast chicken leg was handed to the old beggar, the old beggar looked up slightly, it was the little beggar whose blood had coagulated on his hand, he took the roast chicken leg and bit it hard, chewed it a few times with a few teeth, and swallowed it with difficulty: "Niu Jin boy, are you okay with your hands?" ”

Niu Jin shook his head, squatting aside and holding the roast chicken and biting wildly. A whole chicken entered his stomach in a few clicks.

The old beggar was amazed and said, "You are really a starving ghost reincarnated, don't eat so much, you will be strangled!" ”

Niu Jin shook his head and said, "I haven't eaten yet......

The old beggar sighed and said, "What a life to be a beggar!" ”

After that, the old beggar got up and picked up the bracelet on the ground, and rubbed it with his sleeve, and the old beggar looked at it carefully, and his face was solemn.

The lame young beggar sat down beside him with his hair and asked, "What's the matter?" Isn't it very rich, and how much is this bracelet worth? ”

The old beggar looked solemn and put the bracelet in his pocket: "It's rich, but we estimate that we're in trouble!" ”

"This girl must not be an ordinary family, if her family comes to take revenge, we may not be able to stand it!"

The lame beggar didn't care: "What are you afraid of, there are so many people in Jingshi, a group of outsiders, where can they find us, let's knock them again, and we will have the fare to find Taiping Road." ”

The old beggar took a deep look at the lame beggar, his purpose to find the Taiping Dao was not simple, I heard that the great sage and good teacher of the Taiping Dao could give birth to white bones, the living dead, and now he was wandering everywhere, and the lame man had been encouraging everyone to go to Zhang Jiao, the purpose of which was to cure his sick leg.

And the old beggar had been a Taoist priest before, so he naturally knew whether Zhang Jiao, who was in the name of Taoism, could really use Fu Shui to save people, and no matter what kind of disease, he would also take medicine to get rid of the disease?

But when the lame beggar heard the news, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw, who persuaded him not to listen, he firmly believed that the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao could cure his leg, in fact, if you think about it, you also understand, in ancient times, if you are a cripple, you are born to pay a hundred times or a thousand times more effort than others! And this distance, in ancient times, when medicine was scarce, was out of reach.

"Don't get into any trouble!" The old beggar sighed: "Put this girl in front of the store in some remote place, and her family will find her soon." ”

The lame beggar Huo Ran stood up with a look of surprise: "Let it go?" Just let it go? We have worked hard and spent so much effort, just let it go? ”

"What can you do!" The old beggar also stood up: "If his family finds it, depending on what we did before, we will all go to the knife and behead!" ”

The lame beggar said excitedly: "What are you talking about and asking for a knife!" We only have one rotten life to live, what are we afraid of? ”

"You don't want to die! These children still want to bother them! ”

The beggars watched silently as the two men quarreled, but it was clear that most of them were standing beside the old beggar, and if it weren't for the old beggar, they might have frozen to death in the cold winter of last year.

Maybe everyone's stomach has oil and water, the two quarrel more and more intense, in a hurry, the lame beggar actually picked up the wooden stick next to him, and beat the old beggar down at once!

"Everyone, listen to me!" The lame beggar had a hideous face: "Don't stop me!" Whoever stands in my way to cure my legs, my six relatives don't recognize it! ”

Everyone was frightened, saying that it was too late, and that time was too fast. Niu Jin suddenly pounced forward, biting the arm of the lame beggar holding the wooden stick, until the blood was dripping, the lame beggar screamed and couldn't hold the wooden stick, thinking about throwing off Niu Jin, but couldn't shake it off, a few beggars hurriedly carried the old beggar away, collected the things on the ground, and hurried away without any memory.

The lame beggar slammed Niu Jin into the wall one by one, so that he spit out the sour water, and finally let go, and the lame beggar threw Niu Jin on the ground, looked at the piece of meat on his arm and was about to fall off, and hissed: "You are a dog!" ”

Niu Jin quickly turned over, panting and half-squatting at the lame beggar, his heart was filled with deep sadness, Niu Jin didn't say a word, and hurriedly followed the sound and shadow of his friends to escape from this place where he had taken refuge for a winter.

The lame beggar limped to the front of the sack, opened the sack, Mi Zhen was still unconscious, the lame beggar breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the ground with a bit of a miserable smile and said, "Go, go!" When Lao Tzu is rich, what are you, a bunch of beggars! ”

I don't know if he scolded the person who left him, or if he scolded himself.

Mi Zhu and his entourage finally found a mess and Mi Si on the ground, Mi Zhu's face was pale, and he picked up a basin of cold water and splashed Mi Si awake, he pulled Mi Si's collar and shook it back and forth disrespectfully and roared: "What about my sister?" Zhen'er! ”

Mi Si woke up in a trance, he saw Mi Zhu and them, and suddenly seemed to be convulsed, and muttered: "I was tied up by a gang, a group of little beggars, and I was also knocked unconscious......"

"Rubbish!" Mi Zhu threw Mi Si on the ground: "Find it for me, Dasuo is the whole city!" Find this gang of beggars! To live to see people, to die to see corpses! ”

All the people of the Mi family rushed away, Mi Zhu forced his eyes to think about it, gritted his teeth and said: "Prepare the horse, I want to go to the Taoist temple where His Royal Highness stays." ”

What is Liu Wei doing at this time? Gradually getting hotter and hotter weather makes the old farmers look at the sky in despair, since the beginning of summer, Mengjin has not had a rain until now, the fields on both sides of the river (Yellow River) are fine, do not worry about water irrigation, but most of this kind of high-quality fields are occupied by the powerful family, and the common people can only stay away from the canal or even open up the mountains to farm.

The miscellaneous grains on the mountain are going to be wiped out this year, and the people are staring at the canals, and the Guanzhong region has a better canal irrigation system than any other region, while other places do not have such good welfare. It's like the subway in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou is open, but your local railways are not connected, can the per capita income and living standard be the same?

In ancient times, the fight for water ran through ancient times and even modern times, and with water irrigation, the grain could be held, and the life of the family could also be saved. At the peak of the water competition, there will even be a fight between the whole village and even the whole township! The people of the Han Dynasty were extremely strong, and the military service system implemented in the Han Dynasty made every young man go to the army once he was twenty to twenty-three years old, and it was not news that he was injured or even killed every year because of the fight for water!

Naturally, it was impossible for Liu Wei to sit idly by and watch the people break their heads and bleed because of the competition for water for irrigation. Zhong Jian took Liu Wei to inspect the irrigation points installed by the marked waterwheels according to the map.

Liu Wei looked at the direction in which the Yellow River was rushing and fell into deep thought, and since the fifth year of King Ding of Zhou (602 BC), the Yellow River has undergone its first major diversion in record. The flood took the river from Suxukou (now the confluence of the Qi River and the Wei River), went east to Luochuan, went to Changshoujin (now the northeast of Huaxian County, Henan) and diverted from Luochuan, and merged with the Zhanghe River in the north, and entered the sea at Zhangwu (now the northeast of Cangxian County, Hebei). This new river is south of the Yu River.

In the third year of Emperor Yuanguang of the Han Dynasty (132 B.C.), the Yellow River broke in the southwest of Puyang, Henan Province, and swung to the south again, breaking the water southeast through Juyeze, and entering the Huai River from Surabaya. In order to prevent the Yellow River from flooding his own territory, his relative Tian Wei even concealed that the Yellow River burst its embankment for 23! Finally, on the way of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to seal Mount Tai, it was found that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered the soldiers below the general to carry firewood and sandbags on their backs, and they did not know how many people's lives were used to block the roaring mother river, but soon the reciprocal was diverted to the south for the Tunshi River, and it was only after sixty or seventy years that it returned to its hometown.

Wang Mang founded the country three years (11 A.D.), the Yellow River broke in the west of Linzhang County, Hebei Province again, rushed into the Luochuan Ancient Road in the southeast, passed through Nanle, Henan, Chaocheng, Yanggu, Liaocheng, to Yucheng Beiluochuan northbound, and then passed through Lin, Huimin and other places in Shandong, to Lijin and entered the sea. In the following centuries, the Yellow River was less frequent.

The fundamental reason for this is that the population of the Guanzhong Plain and even the banks of the Yellow River in the upper reaches has surged, and a large area of forests that have fixed soil and sand has disappeared, until modern times, we only see the bare Loess Plateau. In terms of climate,

The climate in the north is gradually becoming drier, colder and harsher, and you must know that the Yellow River is still running elephants at the time of the calendar! Unearthed artifacts have also appeared in tropical and subtropical species such as rhinoceros skin.

But does Liu Wei have a way? Guanzhong's hukou is like a modern person's Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, if you want to move people from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou to Tibet! Give him a mountain of gold, and he won't change it.

To develop or to destroy the environment? Liu Wei can only choose to develop first and then repair the environment.

The village on one side was alarmed, and the chief of the village led the villagers to hold food and wine in pots, and walked to a hula lala not far from Liu Wei and knelt down, and gathered the food above his head with a pair of rough hands.

Seeing this, Liu Wei hurried over and ordered the guards to pick up the people, and he personally helped the lieutenant commander who took the lead to help him up. Liu Wei learned from the experience of his previous life, held his hand and asked with a smile: "My husband is longevity?" ”

The ancients did not go through the bombardment of the Internet, naturally they were moved and excited, Liu Wei instantly felt a little tight in his hands, in the initial stage of the founding of the country, after a certain model worker shook hands with Taizu, he returned to the factory, everyone rushed to shake hands with him, and even shook his hands and peeled off his skin!

The chief trembled a little excitedly: "The grass people are almost in the year of knowing the destiny of heaven. ”

"Oh...... That old man wants to live well, and he will be able to become the third old man next year! ”

"Huh...... Huh! Li Chang's eyes were red and he nodded happily.

The year of knowing the destiny of heaven is almost fifty years old, and people who are over fifty years old in the Han Dynasty can be promoted to the third elder, which is the rule set by Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty. But it is a pity that in ancient times, men could call themselves old men when they reached forty, and their average life expectancy was only about forty years old, which was a further pressure on the level of the common people who worked in the fields as a whole.

If it is impossible to beat parents in ancient times, unfilial piety will not only be spurned by everyone in the world, but in ancient times, unfilial piety is a serious crime. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was written in the "Book of Filial Piety: Five Punishments", "The five punishments belong to three thousand, and the sin is greater than unfilial piety." "The five punishments are flogging, rod, imprisonment, exile, and death, that is to say, the lightest flogging, because "the sin is greater than the unfilial piety", so those who beat and scold their parents are suitable for the heaviest death penalty! It is estimated that it is still the heaviest punishment in the death penalty.
