As soon as the sky was bright, Zhou Renyuan was awakened by the cold, it turned out that there was a winter rain outside the window, because he didn't sleep well last night, his head was relatively groggy, and the amazing thing was that the pain in his chest had been greatly reduced, and he was able to get out of bed, and it seemed that the wound was slowly healing. He learned from Mo Zhu's mouth yesterday that if the knife was inserted into two more points, his life would be reimbursed, and it seemed that this old monk's medical skills were really magical. Mozhu pushed open the door and came in, brought a basin of hot water to help him wash, and then brought him breakfast, Mozhu wanted to feed him, but was rejected by Zhou Renyuan, he is not used to being served now, his left hand can move, and it is not too difficult to eat. "Mozhu, have you healed your injuries?" Zhou Renyuan couldn't help but be a little moved when he saw Mo Zhu limping and cleaning up his mattress. "Little Master Wang, I said that I will be cured in two days, and I will be able to walk normally again, but I am worried that your body will not know when it will heal, we have been delayed for four or five days, there has been no news of you in Qianzhuang, and we should wait for a hurry, besides, there is something not peaceful here!" Mo Zhu said in a hurry. Zhou Renyuan frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and ordered Mozhu: "You go and invite the master!" Mo Zhu hurriedly retreated.

After a while, Mo Zhu invited the old monk, and as soon as he entered the door, the old monk spoke: "Poor monk, if you meet the little prince, it seems that the little prince is recovering well." Zhou Renyuan waved his hand: "There is no little prince here, only Zhou Gongzi Mozhu, you will call me Gongzi in the future, do you know?" Mo Zhu was stunned, "Huh? Ah, the villain knows!" Fan smiled slightly, thinking that this little prince is a little smart, and it is a big taboo to expose his identity in troubled times, and it is not false at the moment: "Hehe, since the donor said so, it has become Gongzi Zhou, what is the so-called matter of the poor monk called the donor?" Zhou Renyuan folded his hands and bowed to Fan reverently, "Thank you master for saving your life!" Donor: Get up quickly, the Buddha said, save people's lives, create a seven-level floating slaughter, this is what a poor monk should do!" Li Fan hurriedly helped Zhou Renyuan to sit down. "Master, I don't know when my body will heal?" Li Fan closed his eyes and took Zhou Renyuan's pulse: "The donor's qi and blood are still a little insufficient!" looked at the wound on his chest again: "The donor's heart is still a little damaged, I'm afraid it won't be able to reach the physique of a normal person in a short time, why is the donor in a hurry to leave?" Fan Qi Dao. Zhou Renyuan sighed, "Master of Dissatisfaction, Mo Zhu and I are going to Xiangyang, Hubei Province for this trip, it is said that the thieves have approached there, and we have to deal with some things before the thieves capture there, but now we have been delayed here, I'm afraid time waits for no one!" Even so, the donor should think about his body, and besides, it is not impossible for the thief to be defeated by the official army!" What about the defeat, this defeat, the next time I come again, the world is full of wolves, the more Kou fights, the more I fight, and then whether this defeat is a real defeat or a fake defeat has to be said, but when it comes to speaking, this is our Zhu family, sorry for the people of the world. (At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the peasant army met the official army and saw that the strength was not as good as others, so they chatted before the battle, negotiated the conditions, threw some gold, silver and jewelry to the official army, and then evacuated the official army, and then reported a certain victory, of course, there were also officials and soldiers who really fought, for example, the army led by the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, was called "Hong Bing", whether you surrendered or not, and killed the peasant army when you saw it, the peasant army called Hong Chengchou "Hong Maniac") Fan listened to Zhou Renyuan's words and hurriedly comforted: " The donor is compassionate to the heavens and people, has the heart of the Bodhisattva, and the Buddhists pay attention to karma, since you and I are destined to be poor monks, there are fragments of books to give to you, I hope you will study hard, and you will go down the mountain after two days. As he spoke, he took out a yellowed book from his arms and handed it to Zhou Renyuan, and when he saw it, he knew that it was very old. How can this be master, this must be something that you cherish, how can you give it away?" Zhou Renyuan hurriedly excused himself. Fan laughed: "The donor doesn't have to excuse himself, you have the heart of the world, and there will be something to do in the future, but now in troubled times, there is no ability to protect yourself, how to talk about being a poor monk, I can save you this time, I don't dare to say it next time, haha-" Zhou Renyuan's face flushed, knowing that Fan was hinting at his low martial arts, wanting to be a hero and saving the beauty, but he almost died Huang Quan, it seems that this book may be a martial arts classic, so he no longer shirked: "Then thank you master, but it is disrespectful!"

At this time, there was a "bang", a monk who knew the guest slammed into the door in a panic, staggered to Fan's side, "Master-master, it's not good!" A group of officers and soldiers came outside, not like officers and soldiers, and people who were not like bandits, and who still had blades in their hands. Lifan's eyes flashed, and he scolded: "Hugh is panicked, wait for the teacher to go and have a look." The two donors, please stay in the room and do not come out, and Kong Ming will go with the teacher. As he spoke, he hurriedly walked towards the main hall with the monk named Kongming. Childe - what can I do? It can't be the accomplice of the bandits two days ago. Mo Zhu said urgently. Zhou Renyuan snorted: "It's a disaster, but you can't avoid it, if those people come, don't make a noise, and I'll deal with it." Mo Zhu nodded.

There was a noisy sound in the main hall of the temple, and seven or eight people dressed in tattered shirts poked and poked with spears in their hands, poking and poking in the west. "What is the old bald donkey of the Holy Land of Buddhism, quickly bring me all the gold, silver, treasures and grain." A leader-looking man spitted on the ground and squinted his eyes. "You-" Kong Ming was annoyed when he heard this, and wanted to step forward to comment, "What? Looking for death?" The leader jerked out his knife and aimed it at Ke Kongming. "Stop being presumptuous, Yu Kuan doesn't put down the knife yet!" A shout of rage came from outside the hall. Fan saw a group of people outside the hall, surrounded by a one-eyed man in armor is walking in, this man is not good-looking, although there is only one eye, but the one-eyed is a fine light, the pace of the dragon and the tiger give people the momentum, like a strong man who has experienced a hundred battles, this one-eyed man's left hand side is a young man, handsome and slender, if not for the general long sword hanging on his waist, he really thought that he was a suave scholar. It was this young man who looked like a scholar who drank that Yu Kuan, and on the right hand side of the one-eyed man was a strong man wearing heavy armor and a beard, with a bronze ring leopard eyes, and a killing aura, which made people tremble after seeing it, Yu Kuan was his subordinate, and the strong man "snorted" dissatisfied, and said in a strange manner: "General Li, have you entered the temple, and your heart has softened a little?" What kind of politeness do these bald donkeys have, they will only cheat some money, and they will all be caught according to my old Liu's temper, "click" and get rid of haha——!" The scholar was about to refute, and the one-eyed man interrupted them gloomily: "Okay, two generals, don't be angry! General Liu's major event has not been completed, and the people's hearts are important, this is a temple, not a battlefield, put away your set of easy-to-kill remarks!" When the strong man heard this, his face was full of shame, and he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes!" When he got up, he glanced at the scholar angrily, and a middle-aged scholar in his forties behind him hurriedly pulled the corner of the strong man's clothes, signaling him not to make a mistake. The one-eyed man waved his hand to signal the minions who came in first just now to retreat, turned around and gave a salute to Fan, and said with a smile: "There were many offended subordinates just now, passing by Guibao Temple, and they came to disturb the rudeness, and I hope to bear with me." Lifan knew that the identities of these people were not ordinary, and hurriedly returned the salute: "Don't dare, don't dare to entertain the temple well, and hope that a few donors will have a lot of Haihan!" Master, we have heard that this Baoling Temple was established during the Sui Dynasty, and I wonder if you can allow us to visit it?" The young general surnamed Li asked. "What's so interesting about this broken temple, it's better to go back to the camp and ask some women to drink together." The heavy-armored strong man muttered a word, and when the one-eyed man heard this, his face was black and red, and he glared at him, and the strong man hurriedly hid behind the crowd and did not dare to make a sound. Seeing that it was the general surnamed Li, he asked, just now he stopped his subordinates, and now he made a request, but it is not easy to refuse: "Several donors have the heart of the Buddha, it is the honor of our temple, please -"

Fan and Kong Ming accompanied these halls and various side halls for half an hour, Fan was calm, Kong Ming was already sweating profusely, mainly because he was so frightened that he kept saying in his heart: "Amitabha, these killing gods, hurry up!" Hey, what kind of place is there, and there is a smell of medicine. The middle-aged scholar who walked behind the people pointed to the meditation room behind the side hall. Kong Ming was stunned for a moment, and his tongue seemed to tie the knot, "That-that-" "Oh, that's the meditation room of our temple, and a few pilgrims are unfortunately injured and are recuperating in the meditation room." Lifan hurriedly replied sideways. Hurt?" The one-eyed man looked at the fox suspiciously, his eyes signaled to the strong man surnamed Liu, and the strong man rushed to the meditation room where Zhou Renyuan lived, and pushed the door open with a "bang", and a strong smell of medicine came to his face: "His grandmother's smoke killed me!" He hurriedly exited the meditation room. "The king is two sick ghosts. Nothing to see!" The strong man surnamed Liu shouted. "Did you knock carefully?" The one-eyed man hurriedly stepped into the room, and the others quickly followed in, and Fan saw a young man in the sweaty room on his forehead, although he looked sick, but his eyes were still a little bright, and there was a small guy next to him who was feeding medicine. The one-eyed man hugged his fists and said, "A certain family surnamed Li has come to disturb this son uninvited!" Zhou Renyuan held back the tension in his heart, he had already recognized the identity of this one-eyed man, Li Zicheng! This hero who entered the Forbidden City was standing in front of him, and one of his eyes was shot blind by the Ming Dynasty general Chen Yongfu half a year ago. Pretending? Playing cool? Zhou Renyuan's mind was spinning rapidly, Li Zicheng was suspicious by nature, he cherished talents before entering Beijing, and his willpower was tenacious, although he had failed in many battles with the Ming army, he had never surrendered, if he saw the flaws and knew his identity, the consequences would be unimaginable. MD take a gamble!" It turned out to be the world-famous King Chuang, who was sick in bed, and couldn't give full courtesy, and hoped that King Chuang would forgive his sins!" Zhou Renyuan's demeanor was neither humble nor arrogant, and his body leaned forward slightly to hug his fists. "How do you know that a certain family is Li Chuang?" Li Zicheng's one-eyed light flashed, and he said in a deep voice, and the strong man on the side pulled out his knife and aimed it at Zhou Renyuan. "Just now, when I saw King Chuang enter the room, the dragon and the tiger walked with a compelling demeanor, and the general just now shouted at the door, the king, you claim to be surnamed Li, in addition to King Chuang, how many other people in this world can be called kings?" Zhou Renyuan explained. "Haha-little brother, you are very smart and very suitable for the temper of a certain family!" Li Zicheng laughed. Zhou Renyuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and sure enough, he was wearing thousands of sycophants, and he didn't wear the first level. On the side, Fan secretly said in his heart: "I didn't expect that this little prince not only had great courage, but also spit lotus flowers in his tongue, and even Li Zicheng let down his guard." Li Zicheng waved his hand and motioned for the strong man to withdraw the matching knife: "This is my general Liu Zongmin, this is General Li Yan, and behind him is my military division Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance!" Li Zicheng introduced a few people around him. Zhou Renyuan secretly shouted in his heart: "Heh, Li Zicheng's elites are all here." Hurriedly bowed his hand to these people: "Useless scholar Zhou Renyuan has seen all the generals and military divisions. King Chuang, your subordinates are really civil ministers, military generals, everything, and talents!" Zhou Renyuan continued to pat Li Zicheng's sycophants, and when Li Zicheng heard Zhou Renyuan say that his subordinates were "Wenchen generals", then he was not the emperor, and his heart was relieved: "Okay-good-little brother is really fast-talking, I, Li Chuang, haven't been so happy for a long time, wait until you are injured, come with me." "This-" Zhou Renyuan was taken aback. Later, Niu Jinxing was anxious, what is going on with King Chuang today, and before he figured out the identity of this person, he was about to recruit people, and hurriedly asked: "Zhou Gongzi, how did you get injured, where are you from?" Zhou Renyuan had already prepared a set of rhetoric, saying that he was from Hunan to Hubei to visit relatives, passing by Baoling Temple and wanting to offer incense and pray for blessings, who knew that in the cold winter, the mountain road was rugged, the steps were slippery, his body was weak, he accidentally fell down from the steps, and the attendant Mozhu wanted to hold him, but he didn't want to hold it, and even he was taken by him and injured his leg, and his chest was fractured, fortunately, the monks in the temple saved them both when they went down the mountain to carry water. Niu Jinxing looked at Fan and Fan and hurriedly said, "What Master Zhou said is right, he still needs to cultivate for a few days, and he can't get out of bed now." "That's it-" Li Zicheng touched the stubble, and the army was about to open at night, if it weren't for the Ming army chasing after him, he really wanted to take Zhou Renyuan away, Li Yan saw that Li Zicheng really wanted to recruit Zhou Renyuan, and he also saw that Zhou Renyuan was reluctant to smile in his heart and said: "King Chuang doesn't have to worry, I see that Zhou Gongzi is seriously ill and has difficulty moving, it is really not the time, if Zhou Gongzi has a heart, he will definitely come to serve Zhou Gongzi of King Chuang after he recovers, am I right?" He glanced at Zhou Renyuan with a smile: "Yan Gongzi talent, finally helped me out of the siege," Zhou Renyuan arched his hand at Li Yan to show his gratitude, "General Li is right, after recovering from his injuries, he will definitely serve the king for thousands of miles and break out of a big world together!" Good! What a big one to break out of the world!" Li Zicheng, who was slapped on the back, suddenly felt full of pride, as if the world was in the palm of his hand, completely forgetting that he was still a defeated general. "Come on, little brother, this is my token, only henchmen have it, in the future, you take this token to my camp and find me directly, my camp is free for you to come and go." As he spoke, he took out a golden token with the word "Chuang" engraved on it, Liu Zongmin, and when they saw "Ah-", they gasped for air, this token is only worthy of being owned by King Chuang's true henchmen, and they can enter and exit the camp without any restrictions, and they can even transfer troops to ask for generals. This kid got a piece of sycophants in a few words, and it was really unreasonable. Zhou Renyuan looked at everyone's expressions, knew that this token was a little hot, and didn't know whether to take it or not, he glanced at everyone, Liu Zongmin looked disdainful, Niu Jinxing, and looked jealous, Song Xiance's eyes wandered, and Li Yan, who helped him out of the siege just now, twisted his head to the side, but his right index finger shook slightly, Zhou Renyuan suddenly realized, and hurriedly said: "This must not be done in the next step, how can you accept such a love from King Chuang?" Haha - the little brother is so humble! Anyway, I'll give you a silver medal, and when you meet me in the future, the heroes of the eighteen provinces and the world, so that they know that you are my Li Chuang's person, and they will definitely not be embarrassed by you. This time, you can't shirk again, and if you resign, you will be separated from me, Li Chuangsheng!" As he spoke, he took back the gold medal and took out a silver medal engraved with the word "Chuang" and handed it to Zhou Renyuan. (At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the peasant army had too many people and horses, mixed elements, fought separately, and was easily destroyed by the Ming army.) After the defeat of the original Chuang King Gao Yingxiang and his death, the new Chuang King Li Zicheng proposed to establish an alliance and unified action, which was responded to by the peasant armies from all walks of life, and the alliance was called the Eighteen Provinces, and the establishment of this alliance marked the peasant army organization from the loose type to the coordinated planning type, which accelerated the fall of the Ming Dynasty. Zhou Renyuan knew that he couldn't shirk anymore, "Then it's better to be respectful, it's better to obey your fate, thank you for your love!" He took the token and put it in his sleeve. "Good little brother, refreshed!" Li Zicheng laughed, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Don't hide it from the little brother, we will retreat to the bottom of this mountain to rest, I don't know what suggestions the little brother has for me to wait for the way out in the future?" The king has more help for the way and less help for the unjust!" Zhou Renyuan blurted out. After hearing this, Li Zicheng was silent for a long time, and then said with a smile: "You are very close to General Li's love for the people and proximity to the people. Well, it's really the same as what the hero sees!" Niu Jinxing glanced at Li Yan after hearing this, full of jealousy, he is a hero, and said, "I am a bear?" At this time, a small colonel of Li Zicheng's personal soldiers came in and whispered a few words in Li Zicheng's ear, Li Zicheng's face changed slightly, and said: "I won't disturb the little brother when I wait, let's go, and order the army to pull out!" As soon as he turned around, the person had already left the room, Liu Zongmin and Niu Jinxing also hurriedly followed, while Li Yan stepped forward, patted Zhou Renyuan's shoulder, hugged his fists and said: "Brother Zhou, we are here to live and cultivate, don't change the green mountains, there will be a period after the green water flows!" Zhou Renyuan hurriedly returned the salute: "There will be a period after General Li leaves!" Song Xiance looked at Li Yan strangely, but he didn't make a sound. And Liu Zongmin and Niu Jinxing listened outside the door, but their faces were not very good-looking: "Li Yan is really a hypocrite, and he hasn't come yet, and he wants to win over him before he skims it!"

In fact, intrigue, no matter which dynasty or generation, whether you are a regular army or a peasant army, there is this problem, and Li Zicheng's subordinates can't avoid it, Li Yan and Song Xiance are a gang, because they have the same concept, they participate in Li Zicheng's team is to save the people, Yu water and fire, dreaming of building a society where everyone has clothes, clothes and food, and today, there is a drought, many years of displacement, the people are displaced, and the imperial court is unable to provide disaster relief, even if it is allocated some disaster relief silver, both are embezzled by the corrupt officials below, and the people have reached the point of changing their children and eating. This court is hopeless, so simply smash him and establish a new court. And Niu Jinxing and Liu Zongmin are another group, but the two are different, Liu Zongmin has no culture, he is brave in war, he is desperate and murderous, he thinks that he is the first king, then he is the second, his purpose in following Li Zicheng is to hope that one day Li Zicheng will be the emperor, he will be the first founding hero, and then the beauties, good land, gold and silver treasures will be as much as there are. Usually, I can't get used to Li Yan and Song Xiance, and I also look like a scholar, besides, why did Li Yan marry a beautiful red lady? If Liu Zongmin is jealous of Li Yan's appearance or married a red lady, and Niu Jinxing is jealous of Li Yan and Song Xiance's talents, Li Zicheng Although he is suspicious, he is obedient to them, and he has won Li Zicheng's trust, and he is also talented in his belly, but the light is always covered by them, but he has also mastered one of Li Zicheng's weaknesses, that is, he likes to be flattered, Li Zicheng usually speaks, he Niu Jinxing can always put icing on the cake in words, and Li Zicheng is amazed. So I finally got the title of military advisor. But this is not a long-term solution, how can I become a clown-like character? So for Li Yan and Song Xiance, the jealousy became stronger and stronger, and the two people with the same jealousy came together.

At the foot of the mountain, Li Zicheng rode a big black horse and shouted to the army behind him: "The whole army is speeding up, and it will enter the territory of Sichuan before dark!" This damn Cao Wenzhao is like a life-chaser!" He scolded secretly, it turned out that the colonel in the temple told him that the Guanning iron cavalry of Cao Wenzhao of the Ming army was less than a hundred miles away from him, and he was really miserable, and his troops of 30,000 were beaten by Cao Wenzhao's cavalry of less than 2,000 people, and less than 5,000 people, which was really a nest! But there is no way, Cao Wenzhao's Guanning iron cavalry is too fierce, each person is equipped with two horses, everyone in their hands is equipped with three-eyed firearms, and there are bright sabers, it is said that the Manchu Tartar soldiers outside the pass are also terrified when they see the Guanning iron cavalry, don't say that they have no armor and weapons, and they are not good peasant troops! The best way to avoid the cavalry is to go into the mountains and forests to let the cavalry's speed slow down, and Sichuan is a mountainous place, which is a good place to dodge, and this strategy was still thought up by Li Yan. Thinking of this, he shouted from behind: "General Li, come forward, I have something to ask you!" Order! Driving-" Li Yan urged the white horse under him to quickly come to Li Zicheng's side, "What does King Chuang command?" General Li, let me ask you, what do you think of that Zhou brother in the temple? Will he come to be loyal to me?" This-" Li Yan hesitated a little, but he still decided to say his true thoughts about Li Zicheng's loyalty, "The last general thinks that I am afraid that this person will not come to be loyal to King Chuang." "Hmm——?" Li Zicheng's face turned dark, and he said with some annoyance: "I treat him sincerely, why do you say this?" Li Yan saw that Li Zicheng's temper had come up, and hurriedly said euphemistically: "This person is courageous, thoughtful, and talkative, and he is a person who is unwilling to live under others for a long time." When Li Zicheng heard the words unwilling to live under others for a long time, he immediately felt that Li Yan had violated his taboo, Li Yan was well respected in the army, and even other peasant armies said that Li Chuang thought that Li Yan was "unwilling to live under others for a long time?" How? Are you afraid that if he comes, our army will take your place or mine?" Li Yan was shocked when he heard this, and was about to defend himself, Song Xiance had just come to his side, and when he heard their conversation, Lian hurriedly interjected: "General Li, the king of Chuang, didn't mean that!" Li Zicheng looked at Song Xiance, "Oh——? just now in the temple meditation room, Song Junshi didn't say a word, so you can talk about it!" Yes!" Song Xiance bowed on his horse: "King Chuang, General Li means that this person will not be used by us, I see that although this person has a sick face, but the eyebrows are radiant, looking forward to it, he is in the posture of a dragon and phoenix, he is not humble or arrogant, he is polite and measured, and he does not leak, just imagine how such a calm person can fall into the mountains?" How? You say he fell and injured a fake? But he's obviously injured, huh?" Li Zicheng said suspiciously. Song Xiance touched his long beard and said: "The so-called relationship is born from the heart, this person has a calm personality, he must usually walk step by step, he said that when he goes to the temple to pray for blessings, he must be more sincere than usual, how can he easily fall down when he walks?" Li Zicheng nodded: "This thief is very hateful, he actually deceived me, I have to kill this thief to relieve the hatred in my heart!" Li Zicheng said angrily. Song Xiance looked at Li Yan and hurriedly comforted: "King Chuang doesn't have to be angry!" After all, this person's injury is real or fake, he may have unspeakable hardships, and he dare not show it, and besides, what he said is more helpful than the unjust, and it seems that his subordinates are still sincere. This is the unchanging mantra upheld by the kings of the past generations!" Li Zicheng was silent for a moment: "Haha-no matter whether this person is an enemy or a friend in the future, I, Li Chuang, am not even afraid of the emperor Lao Tzu, and will I worry about this little son?" Haha-" He looked up to the sky and smiled, and suddenly glared at Li Yan and Song Xiance fiercely, "You two are only now saying that this person is lying, can I Li Chuang be deceived?" Hmph-drive-" Li Zicheng whipped the black horse's butt with a horsewhip, and the black horse rushed forward and galloped away quickly-Li Yan and Song Xiance looked at each other helplessly, and then quickly chased forward
