Text Chapter 5 Dare to change the soul of heaven alone
He only knew that the only person who could help him now was the only rich man in the village, Wang Maocai. Zhang Chongba came to Wang's house, knocked on the door for a long time, the servant opened the door, and the landlord came out slowly.
He knelt on the ground and begged the king and landlord, begging him to lend him some money to bury his parents and third brother, and he would be repaid by making cattle and horses.
Wang Maocai glanced at him lightly, and said with a little disgust: "I am also sad that your parents and third brother are dead, but our whole family also has to eat." Your father came over a few days ago and knelt down for a day, I see that your father has done work for our royal family, and he is old, and he has taken pity on him, and has already given him a bag of grain to get through the trouble, and he has promised that even if he starves to death, he will never come to me, and you have only come for a few days, and you will treat me as a charity hall?"
After saying that, he called the servant to blast him out.
Zhang Chongba knelt outside the door for another day and a night, but even if he fainted, no one from the Wang family came to ask.
Seeing that the Wang family was so ruthless, Zhang Chongba and the fifth brother returned home, removed the door panel, covered the body of the third brother of his parents with a mat, and the two carried it everywhere to find a place.
But though the world is big, and there is land everywhere, there is not a single piece of it that belongs to them.
Fortunately, there were well-wishers who saw that they were indeed pitiful, and finally gave them a place to bury their parents, so that their parents would not have nowhere to live and become lonely ghosts.
After burying his relatives, he and the fifth brother also went separately to beg for a living, the fifth brother went east, he went south, whether he lived or died depends on their creation.
Zhang Chongba went all the way to the south, and when he met a place where someone lived, he went to beg, and in the barren mountains and mountains where no one lived, he found some wild fruits and wild vegetables to satisfy his hunger, and he didn't know how long he had walked, and how many places he had gone, and his clothes had long been tattered, and he was unkempt like a wild man.
He went to many places and didn't take him in, until he heard that there was a nearby temple that took in refugees, so he ran over and tried his luck and became a monk as he wished.
In such a place, hundreds of refugees were squeezed in, and seven or eight more came one after another, and Guanli no longer accepted them.
There are more than 10 acres of fields in Guanli, and some grain stocks in the past few years have made these refugees barely have a full meal.
In the following days, Zhang Chongba and other refugees worked together to plough the fields and carry water, chop firewood and cook, and because he was the youngest in this group and was more honest in doing anything, he was specially "entertained".
In addition to farm work, he also had to wipe the golden body of the patriarch and get up in the middle of the night to fill the everlasting lamp with sesame oil.
I can't imagine how strong his heart is after going through so many hardships.
A teenager is confronted with the ugliest side of society.
After the hard work every day, his hands were blistered, broken and broken, and he couldn't help crying quietly after cutting firewood in the firewood room countless times.
In addition to making him miss his tattered but warm home even more, these physical pains can also numb himself.
He counted every kind of suffering on his body on the head of the night dynasty, and in the Xuan Demon Clan, it was these people who caused the destruction of the family, and it was they who made themselves suffer endless suffering, and every time he recalled the past days, his chest was filled with the flame of revenge.
The suffering and tired monk who endured the pain for a few months, although he persevered, but there was a drought for many years, and the temple could not support so many monks, so he blasted them out of the temple, and the beautiful name was called: Huayuan.
Therefore, along the way, when he came across a place where people lived, he went to beg, often grabbed food with dogs, and found some wild fruits and wild vegetables to satisfy his hunger in the barren mountains and mountains where no one lived. I don't know how long I walked, how many places I went, and the monk's clothes on my body were also scratched by branches and thorns.
The only broken bowl was broken the day before yesterday when they were grabbing food with others. Now it really corresponds to the four empty Buddha sayings.
He hadn't eaten for two days, he had long been dizzy from hunger, and the belief that was now supported by the letter his friend had brought.
The letter was brought to him by a playmate in the village before he became a monk, and persuaded him to defect to the Heaven-Stepping Alliance, and now he is a squad leader in the League, and he can cover him and so on.
When he first got the letter, he still hoped to continue to go back and be a monk who could eat enough as long as he recited the scriptures, because there was no good end to the rebellion in Tiandu for thousands of years, and the imperial court pressed all levels of local government in order to suppress the rebellion.
He was only sixteen years old and very young, and he didn't want to die in vain, and the temple heard that the soldiers of the Night Dynasty were arresting rebels everywhere, and everyone was in danger, and the letter brought by his friend was accidentally exposed as a capital crime, so he thought about it and burned the letter.
The next day he was still chopping wood in the firewood room, and he saw a person running to him in a panic, this person's name is Wang Xiaosan, he is a person who came out of a small mountain village together, when he was a child, the two played together as a child, and told him to run quickly, he received a rebellion letter The people in the view have known, and he went down the mountain to find the government to expose and receive the reward.
Zhang Poxiao panicked now, went to the room and took a few random things and ran. After going out of the gate and sorting out my thoughts, I decided to go to find a friend who wrote the letter, anyway, I was dead, and I went over there to see if there was a way to live.
This is also the reason why he slept all the way and rushed from Zhangyun Prefecture to Xunzhou after a lot of hardships.
He walked out of the woods and walked into the county seat of Wulin.
When they successfully arrived in Wulin County, the situation was not optimistic, and the army of the Night Dynasty surrounded several major roads in Wulin County, and only waited for the follow-up troops to arrive to attack the Tatianmeng that occupied Wulin County.
The leader of the Treading Heaven Alliance is called Quan Xingyang, who used to be a head of the Wulin County of the Night Dynasty, and the official is not big, but he is strong in martial arts.
Zhang Chongba changed his name when he left the temple, called Zhang Poxiao. He hated the Night Dynasty, hated all the Xuan Demon people, because they caused the destruction of his family, this hatred is not shared, and the dawn is to destroy the night.
The scenes of his parents and brothers dying in front of him constantly reminded him that as long as he had the opportunity, he would never let go of any of the Xuan Demon Clan. He was still very weak, a thin and scruffy teenager who had been begging for a long time, he did not yet have the ability to take revenge, but the opportunity would always come.
Dawn pretended to be a refugee and secretly came to Wulin County, found the guards at the city gate, told him that he wanted to join the Heaven-Stepping Alliance, and told him that he knew the captain of Luoyou in the city.
The guard reported to the commander and finally came to Quan Xingyang's ears, he heard a little ridiculous feeling, now the soldiers are pressing, life and death are unknown, the guards in the city have long been scattered, if he hadn't cut off the heads of a few deserters and hung them at the city gate, maybe he is now left with a light commander, at this time to take refuge, it must be ill-intentioned.
Out of curiosity, he still summoned Zhang Poxiao to see if this person was a spy or a fool.
He came to the hall and sat down, and ordered his subordinates to bring Zhang Liujin up. After a while, his subordinates escorted a young man to the hall, only to see this man in tattered clothes, his hair was full of grease, his face was black, and the only characteristic thing was a pair of big eyes and a calm temperament.
Under normal circumstances, ordinary people would panic when they saw this battle, but he didn't.
Kwon Heung-yang walked up to him and asked him to let go of the rope. He asked, "Who are you sending a spy for?" ”
"I'm not a spy, I'm here to join the army." Zhang Poxiao replied calmly.
"Hahaha, dare to quibble when you are dying! When is it now, only fools and spies will come to join the army, and then they will pull you out and kill you! Quan Xingyang said with a laugh.
"Oh, I thought it was a big hero who came to defect, but it turned out to be someone else's nonsense." Zhang Poxiao talked about the reply.
Quan Xingyang looked at Zhang Poxiao's eyes, he didn't see a trace of panic and uneasiness, what he saw was calmness and confidence, he didn't dare to underestimate this person, this is a person who can't be frightened.
After he earnestly inquired about his name and origin, it wasn't until Dawn said that Luo You had introduced him that he really believed that this young man had really come to join the army.
The general process is that those who come to join the army must go to the barracks for training before they can become a recruit, and the main task is to inspect the city and cannon fodder in wartime, but he gave Quan Xingyang a deep impression, and he was arranged to be a personal guard by his side.
Zhang Poxiao didn't know that this arrangement was a turning point in his life for him, and it was also a starting point for him to take revenge.
