Chapter 270: Face it calmly
Chen Yuan smiled, for the first time in so many days, he showed a smile, it turned out that there was really someone who was more unlucky than himself.
The fat man was very helpless: "I didn't say anything else, I threw the knife away at that time." The leader of the team gave me a thumbs up and praised me. ”
After the fat man finished speaking, he pointed his fingers: "I told you that the new man, the gentleman is more unlucky than me, he deceived a horse, he had run away, he wanted to run farther, so he got a car, let the horse pull him and continue to run, he himself slept in the car for a while." When he woke up, he found that the horse had pulled him back again, and they had not chased him at all. ”
Chen Yuan looked at the gentleman: "No, sir?" Tricking a horse into being imprisoned in Dali Temple? ”
Mr. nodded: "Yes, the point is that I still left a note when I left, and I scolded that guy severely." That guy is the current emperor, and he said to me: 'I didn't plan to arrest you, but since you have come back by yourself, you can be imprisoned.' ”
Chen Yuan smiled: "Haha, hahaha!" ”
He didn't know if what the fat man said was true or false, but what the gentleman said was absolutely false. Maybe everyone knows it, but no one is telling the story. Because in this place, there is no point in what is real or fake.
The gentleman seemed to hear something, and suddenly asked Chen Yuan, "Don't you believe it?" ”
Chen Yuan shook his head: "I don't believe it." ”
The gentleman smiled: "Why don't you believe it?" ”
Chen Yuan waved at him: "I have always been the only one who can deceive others, and others can rarely deceive me." ”
The corners of the gentleman's mouth raised a contemptuous smile: "If you don't believe it, forget it, I am locked up here, I am a criminal who deceives the king, and I have deceived the emperor twice in a row, he must feel very shameless." ”
Chen Yuan suddenly became interested and sat up: "Then tell me, how did you deceive the emperor?" ”
The gentleman shook his head suddenly: "Don't you don't believe it?" ”
If you don't believe it, you don't believe it, but what this person said is really funny, anyway, there is nothing else to do here, and when you are idle, you have to worry about your fate, but you can't do anything, it's better to listen to his nonsense.
Chen Yuanyu smiled: "I believe it, and now I really believe it." ”
But the gentleman laughed, "I have written all my story on the bed board of the cell, and if the next person who comes in can see it, he will tell it to you." ”
The fat man is obviously in a hurry: "Sir, don't hang people's appetites, okay?" Anyway, everyone is idle here, what do you say? Do you think you can still get out? ”
When the gentleman heard this, he shook his head and sighed: "I can't get out, I guess, my time is almost here." ”
As if to confirm his words, the door to the cell suddenly opened.
Everyone kept their mouths shut at this point, hoping to see a new prisoner come in. Because, except for the time of three meals, every opening of the door of this cell means that someone comes in, or someone goes out. He that comes in is alive, and he that goes out is dead.
This time, it was a eunuch who came in.
The eunuch walked in with a pot of wine, walked directly to the gentleman's cell, and put the wine jug on the ground: "Lord Liu, please go on your way." ”
Mr. was originally surnamed Liu, and Chen Yuan only knew it now. The eunuch called him, so the story just now must be fake, how many officials dare to deceive the emperor?
The gentleman sighed, knowing what it meant to be on the road. He rushed around and clenched his fists: "Everyone, go first." ”
After drinking the wine handed to him by the eunuch, after a long time, the gentleman had a convulsion, and then he vomited black blood and died.
The next thing to do is to drag the body out, and the jailer is responsible for cleaning the cell.
Mr. left like this, his eloquence made Chen Yuan admire, he did not have much fear and panic in the face of death, but seemed so calm. Chen Yuan didn't know if it was his turn, he would simply stick his head into the guillotine.
Watching the jailer drag away the corpse, Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Cell boss!" Cell boss! I'm going to change rooms! ”
The cell boss walked over: "Shopkeeper Chen, which one do you want to change?" ”
Chen Shimei pointed to the room where Mr. just now: "I'm going there!" ”
The other prisoners also realized that the room was good, with a window. You can only see a little bit outside, but it's better than seeing only four walls all day! Another point is that there is a story about the gentleman in that room. He told a lot of stories, but he didn't tell his own. This also made everyone even more curious about his story, so everyone shouted one after another, making the same request as Chen Yuan.
The cell boss smiled bitterly: "Everyone, everyone, there should always be a first come, first come, and there is a window in that room, which leaks rain in summer and wind in winter, I really don't know what you have to do in that room?" ”
The fat man was furious: "You're not me!" If you stay here and die, you'll pick a place where you can see things! ”
The cell boss waved them to stop talking, and pulled Chen Yuan's arm: "Shopkeeper Chen, are you really there?" ”
Chen Yuan nodded. The cell boss also agreed: "Okay, I'll change it for you, and we'll clean the blood stains inside." ”
After waiting for a while, the cell boss cleaned up. The shop where the gentleman slept was replaced, after all, that shop had slept with a dead man.
Chen Yuan jumped on the bed immediately after entering, and he also wanted to look out the window at the street and see the little lady selling vegetables.
Suddenly, Chen Yuan was stunned. What greeted him was not the street described by the gentleman, but a high wall! The high wall is very close, Chen Yuan can see the red bricks on it, but he can't see anything but the red bricks!
"Cell boss! Cell boss! Chen Yuan hurriedly jumped down again and shouted loudly.
The cell boss ran over a few steps: "Shopkeeper, what's the matter?" ”
Chen Yuan's hands were trembling, he hesitated for a moment, and finally lowered his voice and asked: "That Lord Liu said that there is a street outside, he looks at it every day, and he can see people outside!" ”
The cell boss showed a shocked expression: "Wouldn't it? Lord Liu is blind! Don't say there's a wall outside, even if there's no wall, he can't see anything! ”
Chen Yuan's arm drooped weakly, the cell head left, Chen Yuan was still lying on the wooden fence, and in a trance, he felt a shocking power! The one who has been acting as an eye for the entire cell is actually a blind man!
Isn't that too ironic? Chen Yuan clearly remembers that every time someone talks to Mr., Mr.'s eyes will look at that person, and his eyes are so clear, how can he be blind? Could it be that all the people in this prison are blind?
Chen Yuan's chest gasped, he didn't know what this gentleman's name was, and he didn't know what crime this gentleman had committed. None of this matters, the important thing is that he is blind!
Chen Yuanmeng lifted the sheets on the bed, he hoped that what Mr. said in the end was true, and there was really a story about Mr. on the bed board, because now he was extremely curious about this person.
After the sheet was lifted, Chen Yuan let out a long breath. The word was engraved, and Chen Yuan didn't know what to engrave. He knew that for a blind man, it might be easier to engrave than to write.
The first sentence at the beginning is: "Everything is difficult, and I am honest and right." ”
Chen Yuan looked at it as if he heard Mr. describe the street again, there were willow trees on both sides, an intersection, the bluestone paved road was one and a half zhang wide, and there were horse-drawn carriages passing by from time to time.
"Hey, newcomer, where have you occupied, why don't you take a look now!" The fat man and the others shouted and screamed.
Chen Yuan suddenly raised his head and smiled at the fat man: "You hit yourself twice in the mouth, I'll tell you what's outside!" ”
The fat man was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and showed a fierce look at Chen Yuan, but that look immediately flashed away, he raised his hand obediently, and slapped his mouth lightly: "Okay, right?" Everyone has no grievances, don't go too far! ”
The corners of Chen Yuan's mouth slowly raised a smile, stood in the position where Mr. used to stand, turned his head to the outside, and looked at the red brick wall: "That little lady is selling vegetables, her vegetable basket is about to be empty, it seems that today's income is good......"
Chen Yuan's heart is full of passion! He has never wanted to accept his fate, he has always believed that as long as he works hard, miracles can happen! So even though the situation is very dangerous now, and even when he has no choice on his own, he still keeps thinking about how to get out of his current situation and let himself live!
But now he suddenly understands that hard work is right, but the first thing to do is to admit defeat and be brave to admit it! Just like the gentleman, since he is already blind, he accepts this fact calmly. What if you're blind? Even if you are blind, you can also be an official on the emperor list! And he also became the governor of Golden State, which is equivalent to a mayor now.
I shouldn't think about getting out of my current situation and thinking about how to get rid of the charge of gathering a crowd to fight. This is a dead end, this prison is fixed, and this crime is also borne by himself! In that case, why can't we be more proactive?
Chen Yuan suddenly found that after admitting defeat, things were not so bad! As long as you can make everyone feel that it is a loss to die, it is not impossible to live!
What we have to do now is not to shirk, but to bravely take the blame! Solve the trouble for those who feel that the dead party members are a little troublesome, and only in this way will those people not push themselves too much.
Then, it makes people feel that if they die, it will be a loss to this society!
In the Song Dynasty, if a prisoner on death row wanted to live, there were eight discussions, and as long as you met any of these eight rules, you could survive. Discuss relatives, discuss the reason, discuss the virtuous, discuss the ability, discuss the diligence, discuss the noble, discuss the merit, and discuss the guest!
It's a pity that Chen Yuan, as a person who buys and sells, has no relatives, no reason, no sage, no ability, no diligence, no value, no merit, and he does not belong to the guests. It's a veritable eight-nil person.
There is no other way, now Chen Yuan can only show his talent to the outside world, if it is a sensation, maybe he can still rely on that "council energy".
At this time, it was only the people who sympathized with him Chen Yuan, and this bit of capital was far from enough to save his life! He decided to do a very shameless thing, first asked the cell boss for a few pieces of paper and a pen, and after pondering for a long time, he waved Chen Shimei's pleasing calligraphy, picked up the pen and began to write.
Chen Yuan wants to write a poem and write it to Linghua, if Liu Yong is still in the villa, he will naturally understand his intentions!
Chen Shimei wrote words to her lover in prison, and this episode was enough to impress those pretentious Song Dynasty talents! If you write your words a little better, let them admire a little, and think that they will also feel that it is a pity to kill themselves like this! As long as these scholars begin to feel that Chen Shimei can't be killed, then there is hope for survival!
Chen Shimei can write words, but now there is no time for Chen Shimei's head to ponder slowly, in this case, what he ponders may not be useful, Chen Yuan wants to be a sensation! If you want people to hear this word, they can't forget the name Chen Shimei!
Therefore, it is more secure to plagiarize.
"When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky. I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu, and the high place is unbearable. Dance to figure out how the shadow seems to be in the world.
Turn Zhu Pavilion, low Qihu, shine sleeplessly. There should be no hatred, what is the long time to say goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. ”
