The place that Xuan Yi said is the Shenglong Village where Huang Zide settled when he was hiding in Shangluo Mountain in the previous life. Of course, at this time, this Shenglong Village has not yet been built, and there is nothing on the original site of the village at this time, just a small mountain bag. There is also a deserted village with no one under the hill, (this is a very common situation in this era, many times, the people of a village have fled the famine or evaded taxes and become homeless; or when you encounter a team that writes about the rebels, read as rogues, the whole village is dragged away; Or maybe the luck was too bad, and he met the officials and soldiers who pursued and suppressed the anti-king, and then the whole village was borrowed from the head to receive military merits. So the whole village was deserted) but this location and geographical conditions really made Huang Zide very satisfied. First of all, this hill is not far from the official road, along a small road, walk on the five-mile road, you can go to the official road, and then go south for another forty miles, it is Fushui County. For Huang Zide, who needs to be dormant temporarily, the relative convenience of transportation is also indispensable. Because at this time, his strength is certainly not enough to go out and rob houses as usual. When they broke through, the food they could bring was limited, and they definitely couldn't support it for long. Fortunately, when they escaped, they had a certain amount of preparation, and they brought with them some gold and silver, so that they could obtain some grain by trading, and this required certain transportation conditions. The transportation is too convenient and not conducive to lurking, but the location of this hill bag is just right. Moreover, the road leading to here is narrow, it is difficult for the army to pass, and behind the small mountain bag is a stretch of mountains, and there are really officers and soldiers coming, and it is difficult for the officers and soldiers to catch them if they drill into the ravine.

Secondly, there is a small river in front of this hill that still has water, and there is a abandoned field by the river. In the future, after gradually gathering the escaped people, they can also be self-supporting here. Speaking of which, in this Shangluo Mountain, there are really many mountain kings who occupy the mountain and take a group of minions to farm and be self-reliant. (In fact, although there is a great drought in the weather, crops can still be grown in some places, but the imperial court taxes are too heavy, in recent years, the tax per mu of farmland has even exceeded the output of the fields several times, and the persecution of officials is too strict, so that many farmers have to abandon the land that can be cultivated and flee.) In some remote areas, peasants simply set up cottages, occupied the mountains as kings, violently resisted taxes, and then farmed their own fields to make a living. In fact, in another time and space, when the Red Rabbit Kingdom was first founded, there were as many as hundreds of thousands of bandits in Xiangxi alone. Many of these bandits actually farmed their own farms. Otherwise, in the poor countryside of Xiangxi, hundreds of thousands of bandits really have to live by robbing their homes and houses, and they are afraid that they will starve to death long ago. So Huang Zide stayed here for the time being, as long as he didn't play the original banner of "King Shuntian", no one would really notice him.

So three days later, when Xuan Yi took Huang Zide and them to the bottom of this small mountain, Huang Zide rode up the mountain, looked around, rushed down the mountain again, jumped off the horse, and said to Xuan Yi: "The immortal master is really a good eye, this is really a good place!" ”

In the past three days, Huang Zide has met some old departments who have escaped one after another, and now there are more than 50 people around him. Everyone started to build a cottage together. There happened to be a deserted village at the foot of the mountain, and although most of the houses in it had collapsed, there were still a lot of usable parts, and many pillars, rafters, and so on were still usable. However, today is a day, but it is not realistic to build a house, everyone can barely build some sheds, and it is almost dusk. Huang Zide arranged a vigil and lit a fire himself. After the fire had burned for about a quarter of an hour, Huang Zide removed the fire, revealing the ground that had been roasted by the fire, and then spread the thatch collected from the side on the ground, which was like a hot kang in this cold night.

"Daoist Xuan Yi, I have wronged you to sleep here tonight. Tomorrow we'll probably have a working house. Well, do you lie down and try to be comfortable? Looking at the floor that had just been paved, Huang Zide showed a rather smug smile and said to Xuan Yi.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xuan Yi tried to fall asleep, and then smiled, "It's soft, it's warm, it's very comfortable, I didn't expect the king to do this." ”

"What is this?" Huang Zide replied while moving the fire to another position so that he could make another bed and let himself sleep next to Xuanyi, "I come from a very poor background, my father is a farmer, and the family is busy all year round, and I can't eat enough." When I was three years old, my mother fell ill and died. My father took me and grew up hungry and full. I learned a lot to fill my stomach. I learned how to hunt with people – I learned how to shoot archery at that time – I also learned how to strike iron and how to fish...... Ah, I also secretly learned to tell fortunes. ”

Speaking of this, Huang Zide showed a self-satisfied and a slightly embarrassed smile: "Of course, the hexagram I learned is completely deceitful, and it can't be compared with the Taoist chief." ”

"The king is gifted and intelligent, and he can learn everything as soon as he learns. The king's words just now reminded Poor Dao of the story of Sage Kong. Xuan Yi also got up and helped Huang Zide spread the thatch on the ground.

"What is the story of Sage Kong? The Taoist also tells us about it? Huang Zide listened, but he was interested.

"Sage Confucius is versatile, and all kinds of knowledge in the world are all incapable and refined. At that time, Lu Guo Dazai asked Zigong, a student of the sage Confucius, "Confucius is a sage, right?" Why are there so many things? Zigong replied, "The teacher is a saint in the first place, so God has given him so many skills." Later, when Confucius heard about this, he said to his students, "Dazai didn't know about me, because when I was a child, I had a difficult life, so I had to do all kinds of work to support myself, and I had a lot of skills." Will those nobles who were born with no worries about eating and drinking have so many skills? There won't be. The king is also versatile now, and his explanation of this matter coincides with that of Sage Kong. It can be seen that the king will be able to become a generation of saints in the future! Moreover, Mencius also said: 'Heaven will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, starve their bodies, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they will be tempted to endure and gain what they cannot.' 'Meaning......" Xuan Yi began in detail.

Huang Zide also stopped his movements, holding a bundle of thatch and standing there quietly listening, while the others next to him also stopped to listen to Xuan Yi's story. After listening to Xuan Yi's talk about Mencius's "born in sorrow and dying in peace", Liu Jiexuan said loudly: "That's a good thing! Those who have achieved great things in the world have to go through hardships and suffer a lot. My old Liu heard people say that Tang Sanzang learned scriptures from the West, even if he was protected by the Monkey King, he still had to pass the ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties. Now God has arranged for us to suffer a little, it must be to temper us in the future, which will come in handy! ”

When the others heard this, they all nodded their heads one after another. Huang Zide knew that Xuan Yi was taking this opportunity to help boost his morale, and he was also quite grateful to him. More people gathered around, and a stout man said, "Dao Chief, there's nothing going on this night, right, why don't you tell everyone about the past?" ”

Xuan Yi recognized this person's surname as He, and he was a general under Huang Zide's account, because when he first started the incident, he was responsible for managing the military flag, so everyone called him He Zhangqi, but no one knew his real name.

Xuan Yi looked at everyone and said, "Brother Zhangqi is not tired today?" Aren't you all tired? ”

He Zhangqi shook his head and said, "What is this today?" I think that when we were in Fengyang, we didn't feel tired after running hundreds of miles a day and a night, what is this today? Drizzle doesn't count! Isn't it true that everyone said? ”

The soldiers next to him also responded with a bang. Xuan Yi smiled and said: "If everyone is not tired, Poor Dao will tell you the story of the Qin and Han dynasties, when Han Gaozu raised an army against Qin and finally established the Han Dynasty......

Xuan Yi didn't really talk about this just for everyone's pastime, but planned to take this opportunity to make up for everyone. When reviewing the gains and losses in his previous life, the guy who called himself Huang Tian believed that Huang Zide's failure was largely due to his lack of knowledge. And this lack of knowledge, on the one hand, is because Huang Zide is from a humble background, although he can read words, but he has not read any books; On the other hand, it is also because there is a lack of teaching from learned and knowledgeable people around him.

In the past, those who started from the bottom of the revolution and eventually dominated the world, such as Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, such as the current Dazhao Taizu, when they first started to rebel, they actually didn't read any books and lacked knowledge; But when they started an incident, they all had a characteristic, that is, there was no imperial examination in the imperial court at that time, so they could be assisted by some very knowledgeable, lucky, and unborn talents. For example, Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and Chen Ping around Han Gaozu, such as Li Baishi, Liu Chengyi and others around Dazhao Taizu. It was these people who helped them avoid a lot of mistakes. And Han Gaozu and Dazhao Taizu, who were very smart themselves, could also grow rapidly with their assistance, and quickly reached a height that Huang Zide had never reached in the previous life.

But now the imperial examination system of the Jokhang Dynasty is the most systematic since the existence of China, it has attracted those characters such as Xiao He and Zhang Liang, so in the last life, Huang Zide has almost swept half of the world, and only a few scholars have come to him, and most of them are just repeated villains who have no ability. As for Xuan Yi himself, most of his energy is spent on studying Taoism, and he actually doesn't have much research on politics and economy, and he can't play the role of Xiao He and Zhang Liang.

But now, the situation is completely different, because in his right hand, there is a god who has witnessed thousands of years of changes and studied dragon slaying for thousands of years.
