Chapter Eighty-Five: The Neutron of the Longkong Mountain Pot
Updated: 202-2-0
Early the next morning, a loud wake-up call woke the western foot of Dunan Island from its slumber.
"Toot ~ Toot ~ Toot ~ Toot ~" Five minutes later, the whistle of the assembly sounded in front of the various barracks of Qinglongwei,
"One-two-one, one-two-one"
Groups of men and horses ran out of the barracks, and they ran to the avenue inside and outside the barracks, to the playground. Slogans rang out one after another, resounding over the barracks.
Qinglongwei's guest house is located in the northeast corner of the camp, near Jiuniang Bay. Here live the son of Toda Junichiro, the son of Toda Sakae, the Japanese Uraga commissioner, Mao Hengde, the third official of the Ryukyus, and the families of some cadres of the crossing team, and those Manchu officials and their families who came from Dinghai last night are also settled here.
Seventeen-year-old Miao Qiushui has been practicing since she was a child, and she is used to getting up early, and as soon as she hears the horn, she immediately turns over and gets up and gets dressed. As soon as Miao Qiushui opened the door, he was taken aback, only to see that his father Miao Buying had already stood in the corridor.
Miao Buying had something on his mind, and he had just come to this strange place, so it was easy to wake up and fall asleep, so he got up from bed early. Looking at the military camp in the distance, Miao Buying muttered: "The new dynasty is weather! The new dynasty weather! ”
On Mingxing Island, although Miao Buying said that he went out to exercise every morning in the Ming Dynasty, there were dozens of people on Mingxing Island, and the venue was small, so there was no momentum.
"Isn't this Ming three hundred years ago? How can it be said that it is a new dynasty?! Miao Qiushui was a little ignorant.
Miao Buying didn't speak again, just glared at her.
Chi Jiangong, Xin Dayong and other surrendered generals, as well as Dinghai's chief bookkeeper, teachings, canons and other officials, all walked out of their respective rooms at this time, and all sighed secretly at the scene of the dragon and tiger in the camp outside.
Although the Dinghai General Military Mansion commands three battalions of soldiers and horses, they are all crooked and cracked troops, which cannot be compared with them at all.
Outside the corridor is the courtyard of the guest house, and under the big tree in the courtyard, several young boys and girls practice boxing behind a person who looks like a soldier. The Taoist priest was dressed in a blue robe, wearing green cloth and double-faced shoes, and he was playing Tai Chi.
A person who looks like a Taoist priest is a pot of seeds.
I saw him, with his left palm yang and right palm yin, loose waist and hips, heavy shoulders and elbows, he was as dignified as a mountain, but light as a feather.
Huzhongzi is only 25 years old this year, and his hometown is in Feng County, Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province. Feng County is the hometown of Zhang Tianshi, the patriarch Zhang Daoling. Deeply influenced by the local Taoist culture, he graduated from high school and was admitted to a university in Wuhan, where he only stayed for a few months before he went to Wudang Mountain and became a real Taoist.
"Hah, that's kind of interesting." Miao Qiushui's eyes lit up, and he immediately wanted to go over, and followed behind to make two gestures.
Miao Buying grabbed her, "Daughter, people are practicing boxing, don't disturb." ”
Although Miao Qiushui pouted, he didn't dare to go against his father's wishes, so he had to watch from a distance.
Suddenly, several gunshots were heard in the direction of Nishizaki Seashore, followed by another burst of gunfire. Everyone couldn't help but have some doubts in their hearts.
At this time, Mao Hengde, with the help of two attendants, got dressed and walked out of the room.
Mao Hengde was awakened by the sound of slogans in his sleep, and as soon as he opened his eyes, the sky was already dark.
Sitting on the bed, Mao Hengde suddenly recalled the so-called misunderstanding yesterday.
Last night they were taken to Qinglongwei as spies, and on the way they met the Ryukyu patrol envoy Muda, and the misunderstanding was dissolved, and everyone was immediately released, and Wei Ruiqi returned to Zuna Village, where he and his entourage were kept.
Thinking of Mu Luoyi's smile full of spring breeze, Mao Hengde felt very unhappy, obviously doing it on purpose, but pretending to be an innocent little white rabbit.
But think about it, the army that can bombard the Japanese Edo Castle is extraordinary. The barracks should be heavily guarded, how can they allow people to peep at will. I seem to have done too much yesterday, which is very inappropriate, but fortunately, Daming is still enthusiastic.
At this time, the slogans outside the house became louder, and after a while, there was the sound of thumping gunshots. Mao Hengde couldn't sit still on the bed anymore.
This is a large suite, Mao Hengde sleeps in the inner room, and the two entourages are in the outer room.
Seeing that Mao Hengde had woken up, the two attendants hurriedly came over to wait for him to get dressed and get up.
Walking out of the door, Mao Hengde saw that the roads inside and outside the camp and the playground in the distance were full of columns of running teams.
In the direction of the western headland, the gunshots were even more crackling.
In the grove in front of the building, a Taoist man led several teenagers to practice boxing there.
There are Taoist priests on this island, Mao Hengde is a little strange, and when everyone is watching from afar, he stepped forward to salute, "Good morning, adults!" Mao Hengde was polite. ”
Everyone hurriedly returned the salute.
When Mao Hengde saluted those Qing Dynasty officials in front of the building, the pot refreshed his fists and feet, picked up the dust whisk that was put aside, and walked over with Junichiro Toda and Qian Duoduo.
"Dao Law Nature~~" Tao Law Nature, is a specially designed eulogy for the pot neutron, as a feature of the natural way, "Good morning, everyone, Longkong Mountain pot neutron is polite." ”
Natural Taoism is the new Taoism conceived by Hu Zhongzi, who is also mixed with the dragon and empty on Wudang Mountain, and he participated in the crossing in order to create a new Taoism that conforms to science and change the decline of Taoism in modern society.
As soon as the pot was introduced to the two sides, Miao Buying, Chi Jiangong, Xin Dayong and others were suddenly very surprised, the power of the Ming Dynasty had developed to Ryukyu?!
Chi Jiangong didn't have a city government, so he couldn't hide the words in his heart, and he couldn't help but shout, "What, you Ryukyu have thrown themselves into the Ming Dynasty!" ”
Ten-year-old Junichiro Toda stayed on Dunan Island for several months, and Chi Jiangong's words made him very unhappy, "The Ming Dynasty is the destiny of heaven, and it is a matter of course to serve the Ming Dynasty, not only the Ryukyus, but we also in Japan are committed to the Ming Dynasty." ”
Although Junichiro Toda's voice is immature, his official language is quite pure.
"You're Japanese?!"
Like everyone else, Junichiro Toda has short hair and wears a sea soul shirt, training pants, and training shoes, but the number is smaller, and it is a small clothing specially prepared for teenagers, and there is no trace of Japanese.
Junichiro Toda bowed 90 degrees, "I am the son of the Sakae Toda clan of the Japanese Uraga Commissioner, and Junichiro Toda is also." ”
After finishing speaking, Junichiro Toda turned his head and glanced at Qian Duoduo.
"Yes, Ichiro is awesome!" Qian Duoduo patted him on the shoulder with a smile.
Junichiro Toda's face suddenly lit up, and his small waist was straight.
Well, this young man's bowing posture really looks like a Japanese, and Uraga is not a low official in Japan.
Several people were muttering in their hearts, when the gunshots in the direction of Nishizaki began to sound "bang bang" non-stop.
Mao Hengde, Miao Buying, Chi Jiangong and others suddenly turned their eyes to the west.
"The Taoist law is natural~~~, there is a shooting range over there, and our Ming cadres are conducting live firing there."
Hu Zhongzi Zhi Chi Jiangong and the others were very interested, so they led everyone to the seaside shooting range together, "Let's go, let's go together." ”
As he walked, he told everyone that live-ammunition shooting is a necessary subject training in the army, and that unless there are special circumstances, the cadres of the Ming Dynasty can only eat breakfast after firing 100 rounds of ammunition in the morning.
Looking at the jutt's radiant appearance, Chi Jiangong couldn't help but ask, "Dare to ask Dao Chang, I don't know where Guishan Gate Longkong Mountain is located?" ”
"Taoism is natural~~" Hu Zhongzi went to Wudang Mountain at the age of eighteen, and stayed on the mountain for seven or eight years, developing the appearance of a fairy wind and bones. "Longkong Mountain is located in the middle of the sea. There are five immortal mountains on the sea, and Haizhongzhou is one of them. ”
"Could it be that Longkong Mountain is in Dinghai?!"
Miao Buying was full of poetry and books, and he once went to the record of An Qisheng's drunken ink splash peach blossom island in the Song Dynasty's "Siming Picture Classic", and knew that the so-called Haizhongzhou was actually an island in the Dinghai area.
The pot Zhongzi smiled slightly, and bowed to Miao Buying, "What Master Miao said is very true. The first master Daoquan followed the king of Lu to resist the Manchu Tatars, his old man stayed in Peach Blossom Island for a few days, entered the Longkong Mountain fairy world opened up by An Qisheng, and got the five volumes of the "Natural Taoist Codex" written by the old gentleman left by An Qisheng, and later the first teacher followed the deployment of King Lu to go overseas, he comprehended the true meaning of "Taoism and Nature" overseas, passed the mantle to me, and went to the immortal. ”
The son is silent, and the power is confused! Miao Buying glanced at the pot and didn't speak again, thinking, you just fool around.
Along the way, it was all cement hardened pavement. This cement floor, Miao Buying and others have studied it as early as Mingxing Island, and it is not uncommon for this.
But Mao Hengde is different, such a flat road, Ryukyu is not unseen, with smooth marble paving, as long as it costs a little more silver, it is not impossible to build. But all the way from the guest house, there are such boxy, hard and smooth roads, which is a little incredible. Is this Da Ming a lot of money and stupid, or does he have other skills?!
He walked all the way, looking down at the concrete pavement. At this time, the group had already left the camp and walked west along the cement road by the sea.
"Woo~~~" The whistle whistled for a long time, startling Mao Hengde.
When he looked up, he saw black smoke coming from the large chimney of the steamship on the dock.
"Don't panic, my lords, the steamers are about to go to sea, and they are raising their fires and making some preparations before sailing."
When he got to the pot, he held the dust whisk in his hand, and seemed to be smiling at himself. Mao Hengde felt that the pot was talking about him, he was secretly embarrassed, and hurriedly found a topic, "Dao Chief, this road surface is like a stone instead of a stone, so smooth and hard, what is the trick?" ”
The pot shook off the dust, "This is the power of the Tao!" ”
"The power of the Tao?"
"That's right, there is a way in heaven and earth, and all things are born in order to give birth to all things, gold, wood, water, fire, earth, and the formation of all things in the world, all of which are in line with the Tao. As long as you comprehend and grasp the true meaning of this way, the making of steamships, concrete roads, and muskets will be easy. ”
Fifteen-year-old Qian Duoduo grew up in North America, she listened to the flickering of the pot in the pot, and was a little unhappy, isn't this nonsense, shipbuilding and gun building is obviously the power of science and technology.
Thinking in his heart, Qian Duoduo suddenly said to his mouth, "This is the power of science and technology!" ”
"The opposite is the power of science and technology, and the source of science and technology is the Tao,"
While talking, the group had already arrived at Nishizaki. On the beach below, the shooting of the Ming cadres is still ongoing.
Mao Hengde wanted to ask more questions, but the crackling gunshots on the beach below stopped the curious baby.
