It snowed all night.

When he set off for Xianyang, Chen Zheng saw that there were five or six followers who had followed Wei Wuji.

Chen Zheng carried the Tao Te Ching on his back, said goodbye to Meng Wu, and sat in Wei Wuji's carriage.

Looking through the window of the carriage, the retinue followed closely on horseback, and the thick snow on the streets of Hangu Pass looked a little dazzling in the early morning sun.

Out of the west gate of Hangu Pass, the road immediately became narrow, and the trees on the cliffs on both sides were covered in silver, and sometimes the snow that pressed on the branches fell, stirring up a white snow mist.

In front of the carriage were two white horses, striding hard through the snow in the valley, and their high heads showed a bit of handsomeness.

Perhaps because of the snow on the road, the group moved all the way west, but no sound was heard, and if you looked back, two straight lines of car marks, mixed with messy horseshoe prints, smeared the otherwise smooth snow into a mess.

Chen Zheng and Wei Wuji looked at each other in the carriage, each reminiscing about the happy time when they lit a bonfire, ate barbecue and drank wine at Hangu Pass yesterday.

In a person's life, there are always some fragments that make people stay in their hearts forever and often miss, although that time is as fleeting as a meteor in the night sky, but it is those memories that cannot be copied and can not be returned, but they are eternal pictures that are deeply rooted in the mind.

A person, no matter when and where he is, no matter what kind of situation he has in the world, there are always warm moments in his heart that he will never forget, and those moments may only be remembered by you in this world, even if for others he has just been inadvertently a look, an action, a conversation, an intersection, but for himself, it is the most fragile tears and the most sad warm current under the cold face.

"Brother Wuji, when you were drinking at Hangu Pass yesterday, what was that entourage of yours doing sneakily?" Chen Zheng couldn't help but ask about it after all.

"Hahahaha! I'm just waiting for my eldest brother to ask me about it! Guess what? ”

Hey, you're the leader of the Heaven and Dragon Slayer, why are you so hard to talk about it all day?!

Seeing Chen Zheng's unhappy face, Wei Wuji looked out of the carriage for a moment, and pretended to lower his voice mysteriously: "Big brother, God knows this, you know and I know, don't tell others!"

"I know something, me!"

"Big brother, do you know my real intention of going to Xianyang this time?"

Chen Zheng shook his face helplessly: I don't know!

"Big brother doesn't know, that's right, I told you that you don't want to tell others!"

Chen Zheng is also in a hurry, he is about to jump out of the car when he stands up, and if you grind like this again, I will go back to Handan.

"Big brother, why are you still in a hurry!" Wei Wuji hurriedly pressed Chen Zheng down, I really can't hide it, I went to Xianyang this time to discuss with my brother-in-law, and I came to Qin State to test the truth. The eldest brother also knows that now Handan City has no soldiers, no food, and if the Qin State really fights again, King Zhao will even have the heart to sacrifice the city. But now the people of Zhao State can't go to Xianyang to wander around, so I went to see Fan Sui this time, and I also went for my brother-in-law to see if the Qin State really wanted to fight or bluff. Besides, if Qin really wants to fight Zhao and Zhao Dan really surrenders the city, then it will be the turn of Korea and Wei to destroy the country. So this time it's both for Zhao and Wei, can you understand?

I see! But after talking for a long time, I still didn't say what that person was doing on the city wall yesterday!

Haha, this matter is still thanks to the eldest brother, if it weren't for the big brother who met the eldest brother in Hangu Pass, and bumped into the stunned boy of Meng Wu, how could I set foot on the city tower of Hangu Pass?!

Chen Zheng still looked at Wei Wuji in the clouds, what does it have to do with me? What's wrong with going up to the castle?

Wei Wuji smiled, eldest brother probably hasn't seen the siege battle yet, right? Now when it comes to attacking cities and plundering land, it is a siege! What is the siege based on? Ladders! If you don't know the height of the enemy's wall, then the ladder will kill you, whether it is high or low. So, haha, taking advantage of the opportunity to drink yesterday, I secretly instructed my subordinates to prepare and measure the height of the wall of Hangu Pass.

Hey? Now that you people in the east are so scared that they can't sleep as long as they mention the Qin State, why are you worried about the height of Hangu Pass?

Big brother's words are also right or wrong, although we can't beat the Qin State now, isn't this prepared! Who dares to guarantee that the Qin State will not be destroyed by our east. Don't look at the strength of the Qin State now, maybe a civil strife will make it dangerous and fall apart. This war is not a temporary win or loss, but patience.

When Chen Zheng heard it, oops?! You Wei Wuji is still talking to me about the art of war, what you are talking about is to see who can have the last laugh!

In the words of the eldest brother, the summary is in place!

Brother Wuji, what you just said about attacking the city seems wrong, right? How do I remember that it was "the first army to attack, the second to attack, the second to attack the army, and then the next to attack the city"?

Wei Wuji was dumbfounded by Chen Zheng's question, a pair of straight eyes took a long time to resume turning, and one finger pointed at Chen Zheng and stammered: Lu, Brother Lu, you, you, you?!

What are you doing? What am I me? I'm still me, a different fireworks.

You, how did you learn the Art of War?

Chen Zheng patted Wei Wuji on the shoulder, little ghost, Lao Tzu's true scriptures are all carried on his brother's body, not to mention a grandson's art of war. Let's be honest with you, my brother will also say this, and I will remember two clever plans in thirty-six ways.

Which two?

Haha, the beauty plan and go for the top! Wouldn't it be beautiful if anyone tricked me into a beauty, and I would carry the beauty on my shoulders!

Wei Wuji stretched out his thumb, high, really high! I don't know what kind of unique views my eldest brother has on fighting, teach me?

Chen Zheng looked at Wei Wuji's expression, on the surface he was asking for advice, but in his bones he was waiting to see his own jokes, since this was the case, then it would be polite: "The weaker the forces under strategic command, the more necessary it is to use strategy, because for weak forces, in the case of helplessness, strategy may be its final savior." ”

Wei Wuji's eyes widened so wide that he had dropped all his contact lenses, and he felt on the floor of the carriage for a long time before he opened his eyelids and stuffed them back. Big brother, which grandson said this?

Don't be rude! This is what Carl von Clausewitz, a leading figure in the military theory circles of the Western Regions, said in "On War."

Ka, what, von what? Brother Lu, I only know that you went to the Western Regions to do business, why are you still interested in books about war?

Chen Zheng thought to himself, can I tell you that I watched it during self-hypnosis in the study hall at three o'clock in the afternoon because I had no partner in college?!

Wei Wuji was about to ask unsatisfied, but the carriage suddenly stopped, and there was a faint sound of animal chirping outside the carriage. Chen Zheng listened carefully, why was the voice so sad?!

Chen Zheng and Wei Wuji stepped out of the carriage and followed the prestige, only to see a small deer trapped there on a nearby cliff. The fawn stood on the edge of a narrow cliff, trembling on all four legs, not daring to advance or retreat, and was so anxious that it raised its head and wailed.

The attendants outside the car were happy, and one by one they turned over and dismounted, and eagerly tried to try, and some of them picked up the gravel by the side of the road, and wanted to throw the fawn down, which was a good meal.

Wei Wuji hurriedly stopped those entourage, and was about to beckon everyone to continue on their way, but Chen Zheng beside him disappeared.

At this time, Chen Zheng was climbing up from the bottom of the cliff, only to see him using his hands and feet together, while looking for a path to approach the deer, and on the other hand, relying on the protruding rocks between the mountains, he had climbed to the top of the deer in a while.

Wei Wuji saw Chen Zheng in the direction of the entourage's fingers, and shouted anxiously: "Brother Lu, the mountains and rocks are slippery, you better come down!"

As if he hadn't heard, Chen Zheng continued to approach the fawn with difficulty.

When the fawn saw someone approaching, he became restless, and his two front hooves tried to jump to the rocks not far away, but they still timidly retreated one after another.

Chen Zheng saw that he was already approaching the deer, and his movements became faster, and suddenly his feet slipped, and his whole body hung on the cliff, with only two arms in the air, supporting the weight of his whole body.

The people below couldn't help but exclaim as they looked at the snow falling from above.

Chen Zheng freed his left hand to grasp a dead vine growing in the crack of the cliff, followed with his right arm, and his two feet were also looking for a point of strength, and he actually jumped onto a stone platform and sat there panting.

Wei Wuji ordered a few of his entourage to come forward to answer, but was stopped by Chen Zheng, who was sitting on the cliff, waving his hand.

Chen Zheng wiped the sweat on his forehead and cheeks with his sleeve, stood up cautiously, and walked to Xiaolu step by step. The fawn looked at the man in front of him in a panic, and its mournful chirp resounded through the valley.

Wei Wuji, who was standing at the foot of the mountain, really couldn't understand why this big brother Lu risked his life to approach a fawn. When he looked up, he saw Chen Zheng lower his body and stretched out his hand to try to appease the frightened elf.

A strange scene appeared in front of the eyes of everyone at the foot of the mountain, and the little deer no longer chirped, but lay on the spot facing Chen Zheng.

Chen Zheng slowly moved over and stroked the fawn a few times with his hand, only to find that a wound on the fawn's leg was oozing blood. Chen Zheng didn't have time to think about it, he tore off a piece of cloth from his body, gently bandaged the wound of the little deer, and then opened his arms and hugged the elf.

At this moment, a deer roared from the direction of the top of the mountain, but a huge doe was seen standing not far from Chen Zheng's top, vigilantly observing Chen Zheng's every move.

Following the direction of the doe, Chen Zheng successively lifted the fawn onto the waist-high stone platform, and he turned over again, and finally sent the fawn to a gentle area. Looking at the back of the deer happily leaving, Chen Zheng was dumbfounded when he turned around and looked down again, why did he go down?!

Suddenly, there was a wolf howl in the mountains, Chen Zheng looked at it, and saw a black wild wolf on the top of the opposite mountain, which was particularly conspicuous in the snow, and around this wolf, more than a dozen gray wolves were running back and forth. The wolves seemed to have been lured by the sound of the deer's chirp, as if they had smelled blood, and excitedly awaited the instructions of the head wolf. The black wolf stopped howling and led the pack of wolves along the ridge between the two mountains.

Wei Wuji also heard the howl of the wolf, drew his sword and pointed in the direction of Chen Zheng, and the few entourages quickly climbed upward, and they were not ordinary people at first glance.

After the entourage joined Chen Zheng, leaving two people with swords and breaking their swords, the other people helped Chen Zheng to come down from the cliff, all of them panting and palpitating.

After the two came down from the mountain, Wei Wuji hurriedly urged everyone to get on the horse, and then helped Chen Zheng into the carriage.

The carriage moved forward again, and Chen Zheng, who was sitting in the carriage, seemed to have a dream, just now he somehow involuntarily climbed to the cliff to save the little deer, and now he sat back in the carriage as if the scene just now had not happened like a dream.

Wei Wuji looked at Chen Zheng with concern, Brother Lu, just now you climbed up without saying a word to me, in case you fall down or are surrounded by wolves, wouldn't it be bad! Even if I want to save that fawn, I'll just send someone up, so why risk you so much.

Chen Zheng didn't hear what Wei Wuji was saying at all, and sighed lightly: "Alas! I wonder if the fawn will be able to escape the wolves! After saying that, he secretly felt sad.

Wei Wuji smiled, he couldn't imagine that Brother Lu was so compassionate and compassionate, even a little deer had to be so concerned, let alone a human being! It really opened my little brother's eyes.

"The deer is the world!" Chen Zheng came out slowly.

"What do you say, big brother?"

"Haven't you heard of the deer in the world, the heroes in the deer? This deer is a docile and timid animal, and it is easy to tame, just like the common people of the world. Therefore, the deer is compared to the world, and whoever gets the deer gets the power to rule the world. ”

"Hahahaha! Brother Lu actually thought of the world from the fawn just now, it was really extraordinary! Although I have never heard the words of chasing the deer in the world and chasing the deer, I have also read the "Liutao" written by Taigong, which has the saying that "if the world is driven by wild deer, and the world shares its meat", it is really similar to what the eldest brother said! Now that the Zhou family is declining, all countries covet the deer of the world that the eldest brother said, which is the world of the jungle and the strong, even if the eldest brother carries Lao Tzu's moral scriptures on his back, but Lao Tzu's doctrine is forgotten and neglected by the world! Lao Tzu has clouds: There is a way in the world, but it is dung; There is no way in the world, and Rong Ma was born in the suburbs. Fang's war horses today are all wearing armor, so it doesn't matter if there is a way or no way in the world. The world has been out of order for hundreds of years, all kinds of power and deceit, you and I do everything to die, how many princes and princes were still singing and dancing yesterday, but once they were in a different place, how many people were displaced, and how many people were displaced. You and I were born in troubled times, I don't know whether to be happy or lament! ”

"Brother Wuji is also rich and talented! It turns out that you also have studied Lao Tzu's doctrine, admire and admire! ”

"Brother Lu, don't exalt me, I just heard it from my eldest brother, I don't know where did my eldest brother learn it?"

Chen Zheng smiled, "The Story of Deer and Ding", haven't you seen it? Chasing deer and winning the championship are all the meaning of coveting the world!

"The Legend of Deer and Ding"? Haven't heard of it. What is written?

Ha ha! is the story of Wei Xiaobao.

The source of this deer is the work of Taigong, and it is the king of Chuzhuang who asked Zhou Ding about the size of the trip, but who is Wei Xiaobao? Lu Buwei, Wei Xiaobao, is it the son of the eldest brother? But the eldest brother hasn't gotten married yet?

All right! Brother won't talk to you poorly, otherwise it will become Zhang Damin's story. Brother will go to the Western Regions to bring you a copy of "The Legend of Deer and Ding" another day, that Wei Xiaobao found seven daughters-in-law, and my grandmother also has a Wei character in her name, although others call her Wei Ge'er, but now he is still alone!

Hehe! Another day, I'll hold a beauty contest in Wei Kingdom, and I will definitely satisfy this little bit of my eldest brother's concern.

Mowgli, brother, if you really want that...

How is it?

Be sure to choose the judges before the pageant!

Big brother is clear! Huh? Since Brother Lu compared the fawn to the world, who should the wolves compare to?!

Brother Mowgli, didn't you ask knowingly! That group of wolves is the current princes, and the head wolf is the Qin State. But what about Qin unifying the world? Who has become a deer and who has become a wolf? If Qin loses his deer and the world chases together, won't the world be in chaos.

Brother Lu, the deer and wolves in the world are endless, although the little deer is pitiful, should the little wolf who is waiting to be fed starve to death when he comes to the world? ! I remember that the eldest brother once said when he was in Daliang: The general trend of the world, it must be divided for a long time, and it must be divided for a long time. I don't know if you and I will see the day when the world will stop strife!

Brother Mowgli, what do you mean is that the deer and the wolf howl will not stop! Then let's not just take care of admitting bad luck in this troubled world, we should sing and sing: sing non-stop every night, for the love in our hearts, I hope to accompany you, looking for the path that should be taken in front of us.

Brother Lu, why is your singing tone wrong? It seems that the tongue is not straightened?

This is the Western Regions Cantonese singing, thank you!
