Chapter 69: Shameless: Mask!

The prefect brushed his almost short beard and groaned for a while, Master Fu's words were a little evil, but it sounded very reasonable. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Master Fu said: "The current situation is like this, if this Ning Hanlin has a reputation for righteousness and squandering money, everyone in the rivers and lakes will praise him, but the announcement of the Nine Yin True Scripture is too big, so big that it doesn't seem like a normal person would do it at all, it's just like a saint." So everyone can't help but think, is there a saint in this world? Obviously not, then if he is not a saint, but he behaves like a saint, then what kind of person is he? And now, after this incident, in fact, the Yangtze River Cao Gang was destroyed, how many people can really take it to heart? This so-called rivers and lakes, don't dozens or hundreds of people die that day? Why is it that all of a sudden, everyone jumps out and wants to uphold this justice? The so-called great loyalty is like treachery, and great goodness is like hypocrisy! Everybody doesn't believe that a person is so kind, so when that person really makes a mistake, everyone is saying, "Look, I said it a long time ago, this guy is not a good person at all." ā€

The prefect laughed and said: "I said a long time ago, he is a scholar, why should he go to the quagmire of those stupid people?" I really don't know how to love myself, and I ended up like this! ā€

Master Fu sighed: "To say that he doesn't know self-love, or that this is true, to say that he ended up like this, but not necessarily, I am afraid that the reaction of these Jianghu people is already in his expectation." ā€

The prefect hesitated: "What do you say?" ā€

Master Fu said: "I estimate that there may be three possibilities for Ningjiang to make a move to publish the Nine Yin True Scripture......

The prefect sat at the stone table and looked up at him: "Which three?" ā€

Master Fu said: "One is that he is a person who sells fame and fame, likes fame, whether he resigns and leaves Beijing, or publishes the true scriptures, it is all for a 'name' word." In other words, I originally thought that he was such a person nine times out of ten, but now it seems that this is not the case, if he is really a person who cherishes feathers, he will not think that this time the incident will damage his reputation. ā€

The prefect said: "What about the second one? ā€

Master Fu said: "The second type is a person who acts spontaneously, he will do whatever he thinks, and as for the consequences, it is not in his consideration. Judging by his performance, it seems that this is true, but if he is such a reckless person, there are many things that cannot be explained. Seeing that he is the champion of the Yuanlang, now that his literary spirit is disintegrating, the impact on him is not small, but looking at what he does, there is no discouragement at all, and the difference between his attitude and other Jinshi is not only the difference between the heavens and the sky? Looking at his methods of exterminating the Changhe Cao Gang, he calmly laid out and worked in one go, although it was a fight in the rivers and lakes, but he used the methods of soldiers. Acting before planning, surprise, very people can measure. ā€

The prefect said: "This ......" Indeed, the collapse of the literary spirit has also had a great impact on Ningjiang, who is the champion, how can that guy still be in the mood to stir up the wind and rain everywhere?

He looked up at Master Fu: "Then this third type of person is ......"

Master Fu said in a low voice: "The one who has achieved great things! ā€

The prefect was stunned: "The person who has achieved great things? ā€

Master Fu said: "Those who cherish feathers are like trapped in the cage of fame, thinking left and right, worrying about the future, no matter what they do, they are afraid of affecting their reputation, this kind of person, on the contrary, can not become a big thing, just like the so-called martial arts alliance leaders in the past, like face, for fear of being accused and gossiping behind their backs. Those who do it recklessly, climb high, fall fast, do small things and be fearless, meet big things and be useless, the ability of the horseman, the courage of the blood, it seems that the scenery is beautiful, but in fact there are not many of him, not a lot of him, this kind of person, although there are some people who can be famous in history, but they are not irreplaceable people, when they need to use time, scatter some money, say a few good words, toast a few good wines, and can find ten or eight at any time, all of which are not people who can achieve great things! ā€

The prefect said: "Then what is a person who has achieved great things?" ā€

Master Fu said: "Those who become great things, informal, fame, power, etc., are just chess pieces that can be used, in a corner, looking at the world, the tongue of others, damage, and not really put in their hearts, they take the world as a chessboard, but always feel that the world should revolve around him, they are hidden underground, just to gather momentum, throughout the world, or jump or abyss, once the time comes, angry rise, its momentum is amazing. ā€

The prefect didn't believe it: "What do you think...... Is this Ning Jiang such a person? ā€

Master Fu bowed down and said, "The villain doesn't know, the villain only knows a little." ā€

The prefect said: "Which point?" ā€

Master Fu said: "My lord, hurry up and prepare a generous gift to go out of the city, go to this Ning Hanlin to ask for a courtesy, and ask for mercy, now in this situation, so many people from the rivers and lakes have come here, you can't control it, and the state master can't control it, so it's better to hurry up and ask this Ning Hanlin, let him take it easy, and don't make any big trouble." My lord, don't blackface, he is the fourth product, you are the sixth product, you will not suffer a loss when you come to visit. ā€

***

In an alley, two young girls and a dwarf girl who looked like little girls were walking together on the road.

One of them, a girl in a willow blue skirt, had a small black cat on her shoulder.

The city wall in the distance looks quaint in the sunset, and I don't know how many years it has been built. In a flower shop at the end of the alley, a woman selling flowers is putting away her stall. Farther away, several people were chatting and talking, either with knives or sticks on their backs, and someone saw them and touched the others on the side, and those people looked at them together, occasionally talking and laughing, probably talking about their beauty.

For such a gaze, the two girls had long been accustomed to it, but the dwarf girl glared at those people fiercely. However, those people were originally Jianghu guests, and they didn't take her threat to heart, but laughed a few times.

The dwarf girl thought hatefully, sooner or later, I will make you into buns.

Passing through the alley, it is a relatively open street, a green building on the side of the road, and there is already a greased and powdered woman at the door, shaking a handkerchief and pulling the man passing by in front of the door. Some people will stop and take a look, and more often than not, they will just pass by.

Walking in front of the green building, there is an arched stone bridge in front of you, and there is water under the bridge and a lotus on the water. However, the river is not wide, and only bamboo rafts can go under the bridge, and there are no big boats in sight.

"Girl, little girl!"

A few people were about to step onto the stone bridge when someone shouted behind them.

They turned around and saw a young woman standing behind them, whom they did not recognize. Chun Jianli was thinking to herself who this person was? The little girl had already shouted: "Fourth sister! ā€

It was naturally Qin Wuyan who called them, but Qin Wuyan was known as the "Wuyan Ghost", and all the people on his face were human skin masks, Ning Jiang, Qin Mo, Qin Ze and others could recognize her at a glance by her pupils and other details, but Ning Xiaomeng and Chun Jianli had to look at it carefully many times every time to be sure.

Qin Wuyan came to them, gave a salute, and said, "Two girls, the master bought a Zhuangzi outside the city, and he asked you to see him." ā€

Chun Jianli and Ning Xiaomeng couldn't, and they didn't get anything done after all. But the matter has come to this point, so they can only go to see Ning Jiang first.

So with Qin Wuyan, he went to the other side of the riverbank.

On the bank of the river, willow trees are planted, and at this moment, it is the time when the willow branches are the greenest, and the leaves are scurrying on the willow, blowing with the spring breeze in March. On the other side of the riverbank, in a small shop, there was a bang, two people from the rivers and lakes fought, the table overturned the chair, the dishes and chopsticks flew around, and the customers in the store fled one after another. Someone ran to tell the patrol, and the two patrolmen in soap clothes in the distance hesitated, but finally turned around and left, and nothing happened.

"Well, what kind of world is this?" An old man with gray hair, on crutches, sighed.

Ning Xiaomeng stopped and glanced over there, not meddling in his own affairs.

After a long walk, Qin Wuyan asked about the little girl, and learned that they were still escaped by Zhao Jiangtong, "Huaiyang Zhaoxue". Of course, the entire Changhe Cao Gang has been wiped out, and it is not a big deal to escape one or two people.

They turned a corner and were about to walk towards the city gate, when suddenly someone shouted behind them, "Girl...... Miss Suqiu ......"

Chun Jianli, Ning Xiaomeng, and Qin Xiaoya continued to walk forward, but Qin Wuyan turned his head suddenly. When she stopped, the others also stopped, and saw an old beggar, sitting ragged under a tree, with his right leg broken, revealing a terrifying white bone. The old beggar looked at Qin Wuyan and called a few times, and when Qin Wuyan turned his head to look at him, he shrank back hesitantly: "I, I recognized the wrong person, why, why is it so similar to my girl's voice?" ā€

Panicked and dazed, he lowered his head.

Chun Jianli and Ning Xiaomeng naturally didn't take it to heart, and were about to continue walking in the direction of the city gate, but they saw Qin Wuyan looking at this old man in surprise and walking towards him step by step. They and Qin Xiaoya stopped again and turned their heads to look at Qin Wuyan in confusion. Qin Wuyan was a little unconvinced, looking at the old man who had cut off his right leg, and slowly squatted down.

The old man shrank back: "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person......

"Grandpa Pu?" Qin Wuyan grabbed the old man's shoulder violently, and even his voice trembled, "Why are you here?" How did you end up like this? ā€

The old man hesitated to look at the woman whose voice was obviously familiar, but her appearance was completely unrecognizable: "You, you ......"

Qin Wuyan said: "Grandpa Pu, it's me, you didn't admit your mistake, it's really me." How did you end up here? What about the nurse? Where's the nurse? How did you get kicked out? ā€

"Girl? Miss Suqiu? The old man cried out loud, "Miss Suqiu, is it really you?" Something happened at home, the old man and the little boy they, they ......"

Qin Wuyan grabbed him in a panic: "What's wrong with them?" What's wrong with dad and little brother? ā€

The old man slammed down on the ground and cried, "They have all been killed by traitors!" ā€

Qin Wuyan's body shook, and Xiao Meng and Xiao Ya'er hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

***

In a mountain villa outside the city, Ning Jiang was wearing a small Kona silk and Luo long shirt, wearing a scarf on his head, holding a delicate folding fan in his hand, which was open and embroidered with a beauty pattern.

Sending out the prefect of the county who came to visit and the master beside him, Ning Jiang shrugged his shoulders.

In this extraordinary period, a large number of people from the rivers and lakes gathered here, and the pressure on the local government was indeed too great. However, this prefect can think of coming to visit him, it seems that he still has some knowledge, of course, the real insight is likely to be the Fu Master next to him.

Turning back to the village, just as he was about to do what he should do next, a woman rushed in from outside, suddenly knelt down in front of him, and cried: "Please master the decision for me!" ā€

Ning Jiang was stunned and said, "Shameless, what happened?" ā€

At this moment, it was Qin Wuyan who knelt down in front of him, but it was Qin Wuyan who he sent out to let Xiaomeng and Jianli come back.

For Qin Wuyan, Ning Jiang actually knew for a long time that she must have been a well-born lady before, but before that, where she came from and what her family background was, even Qin Mo and others didn't know.

In Ning Jiang's opinion, she is knowledgeable, takes care of him and Xiaomeng's diet and daily life, does the work of a big girl, works hard, and never asks for anything. Now she burst in, fell on her knees before him, and cried out to him, which surprised him.

Although he didn't know what was going on, he put down what he was doing first, took her inside, and listened to her quietly.

Before he knew it, it was dark, and after dark, he took his hands and paced to another room, where Xiaomeng and Chunjili stood up.

Xiaomeng said: "Brother......"

Ning Jiang nodded and sat down across from them. At this moment, Chun Jianli had just finished brewing new tea, so she poured a cup for him. Ning Jiang picked up the cup, took a slow sip, and looked at them; "The people of Momen have contacted me, and the egg they said ......"

The two girls looked at each other, and in a few words, they told what had happened, especially the strange child named Xiao Fang.

Ning Jiang frowned: "That Xiao Fang, where is it now?" ā€

Xiaomeng said: "He said that he wanted to see other parts of the world, and we don't know what he meant, and besides, the egg has been broken by him, and we see that there seems to be something wrong with his head, so we didn't ask him to pay for it." ā€

Ning Jiang said: "You will tell me the whole details?" Especially after meeting Xiao Fang, every word he said. ā€

After they finished speaking one by one, he said, "You said, that Xiao Fang drew a picture of the 'man' he imagined, is that picture still there?" ā€

Chun Jianli said: "In my place? He took out the piece of paper that Xiao Fang had drawn at that time, and said with a smile: "He said that this monster-like thing is a 'man', and it seems that his head is really broken." ā€

Ning Jiang took the piece of paper, looked at it carefully for a while, was silent for a while, and suddenly looked at the little black cat lying quietly on the table: "Knife, let me ask you one thing, if what I say is right, you will scream, if what I say is wrong, you will scream twice, do you know?" ā€

The knife said: "Meow! ā€

Ning Jiang looked at it: "That little party...... It's hatched from an egg, right? ā€

Knife: "Meow! ā€

Chun Jianli and Ning Xiaomeng's eyes widened: "......"

Ning Jiang nodded, didn't say anything more, just looked at the two of them: "It's shameless, you can go with the little girl, go with her!" ā€

Then he slowly got up, took the piece of paper, and stepped out with his hands in his hands...... (To be continued.) )
