Chapter 3: The Soul Flies Away

When the flash flashed, Xiao Yungui's eyes were white, he couldn't see anything, his body seemed to be passed by a powerful electric current, burning, spasms, numbness, and huge pain followed, and he fell into endless darkness with a bang in his head.

I don't know how long it took, a white light in front of him came, Xiao Yungui only felt that he was fluttering and followed the path indicated by the white light, only to feel that there was no trace of strength in his body, and it seemed that he was not under force at all, just floating in the air unrestrained.

That white light seemed to have an indescribable magic power, attracting Xiao Yungui to move forward involuntarily, and the white light conjured up colorful lights, flowing clouds, flowers, streams, and flowing fireflies, which were decorated into a colorful and wonderful picture, which kept flashing in front of his eyes, which was refreshing.

After drifting in a daze for a long time, the white light suddenly disappeared, and there was darkness in front of me, as if I was in chaos, there was no sound in the darkness, no smell, and no feeling, and there was endless darkness all around, a kind of desperate darkness.

Xiao Yungui was terrified, and suddenly felt that his body was falling rapidly, he shouted, and then he only felt a bang in his head, and his limbs seemed to be scattered.

"King of the West! King of the West! A burst of rapid calls made Xiao Yungui finally feel his presence, barely opened his eyes, and a vague figure shook in front of him, it seemed to be dark at this time, and there seemed to be a few orange-red fire points swaying in front of him, and he couldn't see clearly.

"Where am I? What's wrong with me? Xiao Yungui seemed to be suppressed by a nightmare, he wanted to shout but couldn't shout at all, as soon as these two thoughts moved, countless people and voices came in his mind, chaotic and turbulent, as if this brain was not his own, Xiao Yungui screamed, and was dizzy by the dazzling noise and people in front of him, and then a sharp pain in his head hit, and he fainted again.

I don't know how long it took for Xiao Yungui to wake up leisurely, this time when he woke up, his mind was no longer a messy image, and the sound was shaking, Xiao Yungui suddenly found that he had another person's memory in his mind.

"The King of the West has woken up, it's okay now." A slightly magnetic voice came into his ears, Xiao Yungui was sure that what he heard was a Cantonese, he couldn't understand Cantonese before, and the Cantonese spoken by this person was also a little different from the Cantonese of later generations, with a slightly strong local accent, but he could hear it clearly at this time.

Looking around, he was indeed lying on a reddish-brown wooden bed, Xiao Yungui was born in a wealthy background and knew this bed, this bed looked a bit like a Qing Dynasty shelf bed that his father won in his early years.

The shelf bed is named because the bed has a top frame, which is generally equipped with pillars at the four corners and fences on both sides and behind. The upper end is equipped with a horizontal frieze board on all sides, and there is a cover on the top, commonly known as "dust-bearing", and the fence is often used to make small wooden blocks to make tenon and tenon spliced into various geometric patterns. Four-sided bed teeth embossed with patterns such as tigers and dragons. On the tooth plate, the method of high waist is adopted, which is divided into several grids with low columns, and the middle is inlaid with an silk ring plate, and the relief of birds, beasts, flowers and other ornaments; And there is no one same between each piece, which shows the essence of workmanship. This bed is reddish-brown all over, and I think it is made of pineapple wood, which is even more precious.

Did you go home yourself? Where am I? As soon as this thought moved, another memory flooded up, Xiao Yungui couldn't help but be startled, and the memory in his mind clearly told him that he was in Chaling, Hunan at this time.

Xiao Yungui was confused for a while, how did he end up in Hunan? Obviously, I was still in Yunnan just now. He shook his head hard, raised his eyes to see the person in front of him, and saw a young man in his twenties in front of him, with a red turban wrapped around his head with thick eyebrows and big eyes, long hair spread out behind his temples, a coarse cloth short jacket on his body, a red cloth belt tied around his waist, a wooden sign hung on it, and a waist knife decorated with lipstick silk hanging on the other side, this dress is definitely not modern clothing. …,

"Who are you?" Xiao Yungui couldn't help but ask, without waiting for the person to answer, the answer actually appeared in his mind, this person's name is Zeng Shuiyuan, Guangxi Wuxuanren's clan, the current position of the Imperial Forest Guard under the Heavenly King's Ranks, and often helps the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan to write an edict and reply to the chapter, this time he followed the Western King Xiao Chaogui to attack the Changsha Governor, he is a Hakka in Guangxi, so he speaks Cantonese with a slight local sound.

Zeng Shuiyuan was slightly taken aback, poured a cup of tea and poured it forward: "His Royal Highness the King of the West, yesterday afternoon on a horse march, that beast stumbled, His Royal Highness the King of the West fell off the horse, fortunately blessed by the Heavenly Father and Heavenly Brother, His Royal Highness the King of the West is not in a big problem, but he woke up after a day of coma, His Royal Highness the King of the West can't recognize the little brother, didn't he hurt his head?" ”

Xiao Yungui was speechless in a daze, the reason was not that Zeng Shuiyuan had been calling himself the King of the West, but that his own voice had changed, becoming rough and heroic, and it was not at all the voice he was familiar with before.

"I know you're a great-brother, you're a little dizzy, is there a mirror here?" Xiao Yungui endured an inexplicable fear in his heart, and said in a trembling voice, these words were still in an ordinary rough voice, and even the voice was the same as Zeng Shuiyuan, speaking Cantonese with a local accent.

Zeng Shuiyuan was a little suspicious, but he still put down the teacup and turned around to take the bronze mirror on the sandalwood table on the side, and said with a smile: "If you are in the camp for a while, there is nowhere to find a mirror, but this is the Ya of Chaling County. ”

Xiao Yungui didn't have the heart to pay attention to what bird knows the county, what bird Shengku, he eagerly took the bronze mirror and took a look, only to see that the polished very elegant tooth mirror printed the face of a thirty-year-old rough man, one head scattered and drooping, a standard Chinese face, a bush of short beards under the chin, a thick beard on the lips, a pair of big copper bell-like eyes stared at the old round, the thick eyebrows were close together because of the pull of the Sichuan wrinkles between the eyebrows, the cheekbones were high and the nose was high, and a light red scar on the left cheek was very eye-catching. The reckless man in the mirror is definitely not the original Xiao Yungui's own appearance!

When there was a bang, the bronze mirror fell to the ground, Xiao Yungui was stunned, his original fair-skinned, handsome and chic appearance changed, and he became a reckless man, and he looked seven or eight years older than himself, what the hell is going on? He looked at Zeng Shuiyuan, who looked suspicious in front of him, and just asked word by word: "You say that I am Xiao Chaogui, the Western King of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom?" ”

Although Zeng Shuiyuan was puzzled in his heart, he still replied respectfully: "It is His Royal Highness the King of the West, but the King of the West is still a little uncomfortable in his mind?" The younger brother went to bring the quack Lang Zhong to His Royal Highness the King of the West for a diagnosis, and only then did he dare to say that His Royal Highness the King of the West was not seriously ill, and deceived me, and the younger brother went to whip him dozens of whips. ”

Xiao Yungui opened his mouth wide, and was stunned for a long time before he said: "It's not necessary, Brother Zeng, you go out first, and I'll stay alone for a while." ”

Zeng Shuiyuan bowed slightly and said: "The younger brother receives the order, the king of the west has a dispatch to call the swordsman outside the house, the younger brother takes care of some trivial matters in the hall, and the army will continue to march towards Liling tomorrow, but if there is something undecided, come and listen to the orders of the king of the west." ”

After Zeng Shuiyuan finished speaking, he retreated, Xiao Yungui sat on the edge of the bed and began to think about things in a daze, he slowly woke up the memories in his mind one by one, and his mind was like watching a movie, and he roughly turned over the things remembered by another memory in his mind like watching a movie. After a while, I roughly recalled, and it was certain that my body was Xiao Chaogui, the famous Western King of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in history!

The only reasonable explanation for this matter is that his soul was out of his body, and he traveled through time and space, and attached to the body of Xiao Chaogui, the king of the West. Xiao Yungui asked himself that although he was not an atheist, it was still difficult to accept that such an absurd thing as out-of-body soul happened to him. …,

He picked up the mirror again, grinned, and the rough man in the mirror also laughed, pinching his cheeks fiercely, it really hurt, all this is true! So how did you get out of your body and travel through time and space to get here? Xiao Yungui couldn't figure it out when he thought about it, he actually returned to the Qing Dynasty, and he was still attached to the body of Xiao Chaogui, the former military commander of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Xiao Yungui slowly calmed down, and began to think about the troubles he was facing in front of him, and he had to figure out how he crossed before he could think of a way to wear it back. I don't want to stay in a ghost place like the Qing Dynasty, I don't want anything, I, a rich young master, can't get used to this kind of hard life.

But all this must first save his own life, because the memory in his mind clearly tells him that at this moment, it is Xiao Chaogui who led his soldiers and horses to attack Changsha, and Xiao Chaogui died in this battle! Xiao Yungui doesn't want to die in a daze, he must save his life first, find out what happened, isn't he taking pictures with Song Qingyun, Hong Yuner and the hillbilly? Why did you suddenly cross over?

Now his soul occupies Xiao Chaogui's body, but where did Xiao Chaogui's soul go? I can't figure it out after thinking about it, anyway, now it's my soul consciousness that is in charge, no matter where he Xiao Chaogui goes, maybe he will go to heaven first. Fortunately, the memories in my mind will not run out randomly, and I always think about it myself, and the memory will emerge, so that I don't have to pretend to have amnesia, otherwise I don't even know my subordinates, which is extremely disadvantageous.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yungui got up and sat down at the sandalwood table in the bedroom, he was thirsty, so he poured a cup of tea and slowly calculated it while drinking.

He studied in college for a few years, although most of the time he was eating, drinking, and playing with girls, but a few days ago, in order to earn credits, he checked the information and wrote a paper on "The Rise and Fall of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom", and he also knew the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. As for his Weishenme choice to write about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it is also because of Xiao Chaogui, all surnamed Xiao, so he is interested in checking it, but after checking it, he is a little disappointed, this Xiao Chaogui is extremely unlucky, he died in the battle of Changsha under the city, and he failed to make it to Nanjing, the capital of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and was excavated and killed by the Qing army after his death, which can be described as unlucky.

Xiao Yungui recalled the information about the battle of Changsha of the Taiping Army, and the memory in his mind corroborated each other, and it was clear that this moment was the 19th day of the eighth lunar month of the second year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty, that is, at the beginning of September 1852 in the new calendar.

When he sent out the army, he Xiao Chaogui only had 1,853 people under him, but his subordinates were all old brothers who raised troops in Guangxi, all of them were brave and good at fighting, and they fought all the way from Guangxi, and there were Lin Fengxiang, Li Kaifang, Ji Wenyuan, Zeng Shuiyuan, several brave generals of the Taiping Army, and there was no problem against the Qing army that was three or four times larger.

At this moment, the Qing army is still dominated by the corrupt and cowardly green battalion soldiers, and the Xiang Rong Department and Jiang Zhongyuan Department who can fight some are still confronting Hong Xiuquan and Yang Xiuqing's tens of thousands of main forces in Chenzhou, and the Qing army expected that the Taiping Army was intending to go north to Hengzhou, so it mobilized a large army to deploy defenses and intercept them on the front line of Chenzhou and Hengzhou, and the partial division led by Xiao Chaogui had the opportunity to attack Changsha, and the large number of people would alarm the Qing army.

At the beginning of this battle, Xiao Chaogui's army was very smooth, in Chaling, they recruited some local congregations of the Heaven and Earth Society and poor people to join, the strength reached more than 3,000 people, after arriving at the periphery of Changsha, first conquered the stone horse shop ten miles south of Changsha City, and killed the general Fucheng and deputy general Yin Peili of Anxi Town who came to aid from Shaanxi, and more than 2,000 Shaanxi green battalion soldiers were defeated. Zhu Han, the deputy general of the Yuanzhou Association stationed in Jinpenling, seven miles south of Changsha City, fled for his life when he heard the news, and more than 500 Liuyang Township braved and collapsed without a fight, and all the guns and gunpowder of the Qing army on Jinpenling were obtained by Xiao Chaogui, and the next day attacked Loess Ridge, the Qing army retreated, and the Taiping army cleared the Qing army's defense line on the periphery of Changsha City. …,

But then Xiao Chaogui's attack on Changsha was not smooth, he only had more than 3,000 soldiers and horses, the troops were too small, although the Qing army in the city was rotten and unbearable to fight, but with the temporary recruitment of soldiers, there were still seven or eight thousand people, Xiao Chaogui was forced to occupy the peak of the south of the city, and concentrated his forces to attack the south of Changsha, unable to do a few sides of the attack.

After a few days of strong attack by the Taiping army, it was about to be successful, Deng Shaoliang, the deputy general of the Qing army Chu Xiongxi, led more than 900 troops to help, the Taiping army was defeated, in the subsequent battle, Xiao Chaogui took the lead, held the flag to supervise the battle, the goal was too obvious, was hit by the Qing army's artillery, and died of serious injuries. Then the main force of the Taiping army and the Qing army arrived one after another, the two armies fought in Changsha for 81 days, the Taiping army finally failed to conquer Changsha, hated the Xiangjiang River, and had to lead the troops to escape from Yuezhou, which is the famous battle of Changsha in history.

Xiao Yungui thought about it all the way, and he had generally understood the situation he was in now, it was not too good, it was not too bad, it was not too difficult to save his life by relying on the history he knew, Xiao Chaogui was killed by a cannon, as long as he hid far behind, there should be no danger, thinking of this, he was already a lot at ease, but then some memories of Xiao Chaogui before and after he sent out the army came out, and he couldn't help but be scared......
