The old man smiled slightly, patted the slave's shoulder, and said with determination: "Your idea is very good, in the dark night, the most striking thing is naturally the fire, however, since a good man wants to make a career, how can he think of avoiding danger, naturally he has to face the difficulties." ”

The slave savored his words and said slowly, "You mean, we are going to take advantage of this opportunity ......?" ”

The old man obviously liked the word "we" in his words, and nodded leisurely: "Exactly, it is a good plan to attack the east and west, but we should look at the long term......"

He also lowered his voice and said: "According to my observation in the past few days, the grain and grass and baggage of the besieging army are near the west gate, if we can burn their grain and grass in one fell swoop, I am afraid that they will soon retreat, and then you will be a great achievement." ”

Jinu didn't look very happy, shook his head and said: "Such an opportunistic method is not the work of an upright man. ”

A look of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, and he said with a smile: "I thought you were a hearty person, who knew that you were so pedantic, you know, for outsiders, the important thing is only the result, once the besieged soldiers retreat, the people in the city will be grateful to you, this is the people's heart, the people's back, is the left and right of the destiny, you don't understand such a simple truth?" ”

Seeing that the slave still showed a rather ignorant expression, he hurriedly continued to persuade: "Don't think that this credit is easy, you must know that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and if you don't accumulate the work of steps, how can it lead to a thousand miles?" ”

This is not the most important thing, the important thing is that if Xie Yu, the head of the Xie family, can recommend him to Xie Yan, the head of the Xie family, or Xie Xuan, the general of the expedition to the north, then this is much more useful than the reward of the imperial court, and do not look at others, the current Yuzhou Assassin Wang Yi is not from the Xie family shogunate, and he served as a party official at a young age, which is simply a success.

Although this child was born with a different appearance, after all, he is only a child under fifteen, and it seems to be a little too difficult to clarify with him the rights and wrongs and grievances in the court officialdom.

Jinu really clasped his hands, rubbed them a few times, and frowned: "However, I originally wanted to rely on my martial arts to make military achievements, although these soldiers besieging the city are numerous, but I have already thought about how to repel them, and it must be very safe." ”

The old man glared at him with hatred, and said honestly: "Soldier, murder weapon, no matter how seamless your plan is, there will always be people injured, and some people will die. ”

The slave raised his eyes in confusion and asked suspiciously: "In the army, the commanders have taught us that since we have chosen the path of joining the army, we have already entrusted our life and death to the imperial court, and sacrificing our lives for the country is a matter of pride, and it is the fate of a soldier, so what is there to pity?" ”

"Fart!" A delicate voice sounded at the right time, and the slave and the old man looked over together, but there was no woman's figure, only a man with a turban covering half of his chin stood in the shadows on the side, glaring at the slave angrily, and said angrily: "The Buddha said that all living beings are equal, why do you erase the value of the survival of others?" ”

Jinu looked at those bright but somewhat evasive eyes, and immediately understood, and asked helplessly: "Zhu Fayun, what are you doing here?" ”

The woman was really Zhu Fayun, she saw that she had been recognized, so she walked over generously, but did not talk to the slave, but knelt down to the old man, made a dignified junior salute, and said respectfully: "Uncle Shi, disciple Zhu Fayun gives you a greeting." ”

It was rare for her to have such a literary crepe, but after getting up after the ceremony, she regained her jumping appearance, and said with a smile: "Uncle Shi, why did your old man come here, my master said that you ran away from home suddenly and haven't come back for a few years, have you been in Wudi for the past few years?" ”

The old man didn't expect to meet Zhu Fayun here, so he couldn't help coughing embarrassedly, glanced at the slave secretly, and pretended to be calm and said: "These are not important, the most important thing now is ......"

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Fayun let out a surprised "huh", and asked again: "Uncle Shi, weren't you good at numerology and astrology before, but now you are helping this kid like this, is he ......?"

The old man was busy coughing desperately, and it was easy to interrupt her words, and he hurriedly said: "Fa Yun, the secret of heaven must not be revealed, you should stop talking nonsense." ”

He stroked his beard embarrassedly, and said to the slave: "I'm sorry, I didn't explain to you before, the old and decrepit Dharma name is Zhu Fatai, and he has practiced in the Tile Coffin Temple since he was a child, and now he happens to live in seclusion here. ”

Jinu could roughly understand the relationship between the two from their conversation, but when he saw Zhu Fayun's grinning face, he couldn't help but feel unhappy, and said unhappily: "Why don't you stay in Shanyin, what are you doing with me?" ”

Zhu Fayun rolled his eyelids, glared at him, and said angrily, "Who followed you?" I was originally a monk from all over the world, I can go wherever I want, what do you have to do with it? ”

As she spoke, she remembered what Liu Muzhi had said to her before, and her face was slightly reddened.

Zhu Fatai glanced at her thoughtfully, and he knew a little in his heart.

Whether it is fate or fate, everything is just predetermined, and it cannot be forced or reversed.

He no longer paid attention to Zhu Fayun, but said to the slave seriously: "Opportunities are the same as the stars, fleeting, you can make up your mind, as long as you make up your mind, the old man will move these woodcutters for you." ”

The woodcutters at the head happened to come over, looked at each other a few times, and then solemnly said to Zhu Fatai and the slaves: "The firewood has been counted, a total of one hundred and twenty-four bundles of firewood, just for the love that you are willing to buy these firewood, no matter where you want us to move, our brothers are determined to help." ”

Although these woodcutters are reckless people, after all, they are not completely brainless, how can anyone buy so many bundles of firewood for their own use? Not to mention what the slave had planned, just because he was willing to buy these firewood, he was exempted from the simple kindness of his brothers who could not return home and waited outside the city, and he was willing to lead his brothers to work for him.

What's more, it's not a robbery, it's just a matter of moving a few bundles of firewood, and moving to where is not moving, I'm the best at it.
