In the evening, it gets darker and darker.

Standing on the crumbling walls of the town, looking into the distance, all that comes into view is a darkness that you can't see your fingers.

The cool breeze blew, causing several merchants guarding the city wall to tremble and involuntarily tighten their collars.

The only source of light and heat may be the lantern in your hand.

From time to time, people stomped their feet, clapped their hands, and walked up and down as if waiting for something, and from time to time raised their heads and looked into the darkness in the distance.

Gradually, the time was getting later and later, and suddenly in the dark night, a little golden light gradually became clear.

"It's coming!" Seeing the light source, these merchants who were guarding here suddenly showed happy smiles on their faces.

It seems that the hard work of staying here has disappeared in an instant at this time.

In mid-air, I saw a winged Pegasus flying from a distance, and on the back of the Pegasus rode a thin young man.

The face is full of wind and frost, and the look of exhaustion is written.

Before entering the town, I heard a young man on horseback shouting: "Mr. Zhang Gu's new work has arrived!" ”

As soon as the voice came out, the people who had been guarding the city gate early immediately came to their senses.

Before the young man fell, he had already begun to take out the gold and silver and prepare to buy it.

In fact, this book was written by Zhang Gu as early as yesterday morning.

Around noon, a large-scale copying spread began.

The reason why it took so long to get here is because this place is so remote.

This is already the border of Shu, and if you go further, you will have to go out of the border of Shu.

Once out of the border, the environment will be so bad that ordinary people can hardly survive, not to mention all kinds of demons, there are all kinds of unpredictable dangers, some mysterious Jedi.

Even if the land of Bashu, known as Tianfu, nine out of ten families are from business, but even if the business is so developed and there are countless merchants, how can ordinary businessmen run there to die when they are full.

In fact, if it weren't for the recent impact of Zhang Gu's new book, it would have been too great.

Moreover, the eyes of the giants are now aimed at the southwest, so that the messenger can run here every other day so diligently.

Otherwise, according to the previous urine sex.

A letter will have to wait for you for a year and a half before it can reach you.

It's normal for you to receive a letter from a distant loved one later, or even two or three years.

"Hurry, hurry...... Let me see, can't wait! ”

After a wealthy merchant bought the book, he couldn't wait, and he didn't care about the bad light in the night, so he went under the lantern and opened it.

As soon as I opened the book, I saw the first line, and the title was being written [Sacred Heart Carries the Way, Benevolence Carries the People]

Just looking at the eight-character title, everyone's eyes became excited, the title is so big, it is obvious that today is destined to be a masterpiece.

However, a wealthy businessman pouted: "This word?? What kind of thing is it written?,That's what you want me to do?? ”

The messenger pouted: "If you like to read it, Mr. Zhang Gu's new book is now hard to find, and the copyist who copied it copied from morning to end in a day, and if the previous book was not copied, he had to copy the next book, and it was not enough for a long time." ”

Bookmakers are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the better bookmakers are all famous today.

Even if it is a copied book, it is often accompanied by annotations and detailed personal opinions, which are of great value and cannot be accessed by ordinary people.

Almost, it's also full of poetry and books, and I don't say a good hand, and some places are not well described, and I can change a word for you.

Of course, the cost of such a bookmaker is still very high, and the output is limited.

Sellers are also not cheap, and are often limited to circulation among some princes and nobles.

As for the poor bookmaker, he has just read and hyphenation, and it would be good if he could not copy a few typos.

Or some part-time bookmakers, handwriting some glamorous and vulgar families to support their families.

Copying a book for three or four dollars, calculated according to the book, is better than the speed, often at the end of the day, can copy five or six copies can still be done.

As for the quality...... Hehe, that's it, let's just see.

It's just that today, the quality of this copying is a little poor, crooked, it's dark, and it takes a long time to recognize the words.

In this way, it is still sold for five taels of silver, which shows how hot Zhang Gu's third new work has become.

The bookmakers in the library were copying with full firepower, and some simply collapsed on the table, and when they were carried down, their hands were still subconsciously holding the pen and writing.

Even so, it is still not enough to sell at the moment, and even a book is hard to find.

This batch of books is of too poor quality to be sold here, otherwise I am afraid that it will take three or five days to work.

That's it, five taels of silver are all sold cheaply, no wonder the messenger doesn't give a good face.

A few book lovers scolded the book house pit people in their hearts, but they were still patient and looked at each other.

Gradually, time passed minute by minute.

The expressions on the faces of several people standing under the lantern gradually became more and more serious.

When they saw the poem that refuted Mr. Lin Jue, the eyes of several businessmen instantly moistened.

This poem is also the most neatly copied and neatly copied page in the whole text, and it seems that for this word, the blank space of four finger widths was vacated at any cost.

"Sad Xia Shang Economic Office. The palace and all the rooms were made of soil. Reading this paragraph, everyone can't help but think of the cities that have long disappeared under the years of war.

"Prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer."

Eight simple words.

Even the beggars on the side of the road can hear it clearly.

But it is the sadness of the people, even if they are businessmen, they can clearly feel the pain of the people in the eight characters.

A few merchants are still like this, and at this time, in the distant capitals of various countries, I don't know how many people are holding this poem at this moment, falling into contemplation.

Among them, there are many ordinary people, there are also royal nobles, there are also famous generals who gallop on the battlefield, and there are also kings and prime ministers who control the fate of a country.

When I saw this poem, no one was moved.

A general sat in a military tent, silently reciting the poem, and counted it on his fingers.

A team of 3,000 iron cavalry must go through several years of training, several baptisms of war, and several eliminations before it can become a capable army.

But even such an elite often survives seventy percent of the time after a charge.

If the situation is not right, and a big defeat is encountered, it is often the norm that there is no one in ten.

In the eyes of those generals, human life was the card used to win the war.

But who would have thought that behind such an iron horse, how many wives and children, old and young, would be waiting at home?

Even the general, who is accustomed to seeing life and death, thinks of those women, children and old people who are hard at home and have nothing to rely on at this time, even though their hearts are like steel, they do not feel a strong sense of guilt.

A king, after looking at this poem, couldn't help but look at the lights outside the palace.

There were also hazy tears in his eyes.

Waving his hand to summon the eunuch beside him: "Pass the order, exempt the field tax this year, and give the people some time to recuperate!" ”

Kings and generals are still like this, not to mention those students who boast of their amazing talents and whose hearts are higher than the sky.

After seeing this poem, they all fell silent, thinking that they had learned a lot of knowledge, but in the end, the suffering of the people had never changed.

Some people even want to open their mouths to defend themselves, or even to refute such rebellious words.

However, after he wrote the rebuttal article with great interest, he read it himself, but found that his gorgeous article was so pale and powerless in front of these eight words.

There is more than one person who does such a stupid thing.

But it only needs to be simply compared with Mr. Lin Jue's words in the book, and the judgment is made high and low.

Even Mr. Lin Jue, such a miscellaneous celebrity, was dumbfounded by this poem, let alone them?

In just two days, Zhang Gu's new work has spread all over the world, and the book has been translated into several different languages.

During this time, up to the court and down to the street, everyone discussed this poem.

It doesn't matter if you don't know how to read, the storyteller in the teahouse has three sessions a day, and the venue is full.

It doesn't matter if it's almost said, even if it's reading from a book, there are a large number of people watching it every day.

Even the famous Jixia School Palace is unprecedented, and this poem is excerpted and treated as the next teaching poem.

When this incident came out, it caused an alarm in the world.

What kind of place is the Jixia School Palace, the most bombarded academy in the world.

The giants of this academy have preached and lectured here, and the celebrities of each family are proud to be able to teach at the Jixia Academy.

However, there are very few people who can leave behind authors in the Jixia School Palace, throughout ancient and modern times, and they are all sages and sages of all families, and they are earth-shattering.

Even the great Confucian Zhang Tuo, who has been teaching in the Jixia School Palace all the year round, has not been able to have an article that has been included in the teaching materials of the Jixia School Palace.

In other words, with this poem alone, Ding Xiaoyi can enjoy extremely high treatment no matter where he goes in the future.

At this time, if he said that he was the happiest, he was afraid that the thief giant was stubborn, and he invisibly felt that his luck had risen by a bit.

Not to mention how happy I was in my heart, even the resentment of Ding Xiaoyi and Song Xingxue for sacking the Wanbao House dissipated a lot.

Of course, a few families are happy and a few are sad.

For example, Mr. Lin Jue, the whole person is not good now.

I don't know if Zhang Gu did it on purpose, in the book, he was completely placed in the position of Ding Xiaoyi's stepping stone, and he was stepped on with a bang.

The reviews took a turn for the worse, and after reading the book, I felt depressed.

As for Zhang Tuo, Canwu Daoren, and Mr. Zhai Da, the three of them are not comfortable, and they have lost all their faces.

The key is that in the book, Ding Xiaoyi, quoting the words of Taoist Zhuangzi and Confucian Mencius, has caused a fire among the students of various families, and during this period of time, because of this passage alone, there are not a few disciples of various families who criticize each other.

This incident is also destined to become the fuse between Confucianism and Taoism, of course, these are all later stories.

At this moment, on the city wall, several merchants followed the faint light, and after reading the whole book, their blood boiled with excitement for a while, and they felt that the whole person was warm.

What's more, standing on the city wall excitedly and running around, I feel a lot more comfortable.

Just when they were in a state of excitement, they suddenly heard the footsteps of a carriage under the city gate.

It's so late, and there is still a carriage into the city overnight?

Everyone looked down in confusion, but saw that the curtain of the carriage was opened, and a person walked out with a small wooden box, it was none other than the winner of this life, the great writer Zhang Gu.
