Chapter 45: Singing with Songs
Peng Wuwang stood on the shore of Dongting Lake in a daze, he was in a coma all night, and it was now the second day of the inn's ambush. Fishing boats come and go on Dongting Lake, the fishing songs are melodious, and the light smoke and mist paint the picturesque landscape more mysterious and charming. The eight-hundred-mile Dongting is really as beautiful as a fairyland.
"Hey!" Peng Wuwang stretched hard, only to feel a fierce ringing in his abdomen. "Haha!" Peng Wuwang looked up to the sky and laughed, "I can't imagine that my Peng Wuhope's stomach will also rebel."
This time he escaped death, and it still feels like a dream for Peng Wuhope. Who would have thought that the demon beast that was supposed to take his life would save his life in the end.
"The eel demon has been arrogant and domineering all his life, and he bites people when he sees them, and now he is bitten to death by me, and he is really unhappy with his retribution." Peng Wuwang was full of pride, "There are gods three feet above my head, and I, Peng Wuwang, have nothing to fear in this life."
He looked at the beautiful scenery of Dongting, and his heart was so happy that he couldn't help but sing the pastoral song that circulated in the suburbs of Qingzhou:
"Born in the deep valley and loving the heavens,
Wangtian just wants to go over the mountain.
All my life I wish to turn into a wild goose,
Flutter your wings in the sky.
Thirty years later, the bearded guest,
Shepherd thirty years ago.
The shepherd boy wants to wear clothes,
The bearded soldier wants to herd the sheep."
This song describes the heroic spirit of Qingzhou heroes when they were teenagers, who only wanted to go over the mountains and mountains to experience the heroic excitement of the Xiaoao Frontier, and when they worked hard to get out of their hometown and become a soldier guarding the border pass, they missed the peaceful life of shepherding sheep in the countryside.
Peng Wuwang still couldn't understand the meaning of the last few lines of this pastoral song at this time, but was fascinated by the first few lines of the song full of pride, and sang it repeatedly on his lips to express the joy in his heart.
This song used to be the favorite pastoral song of the four brothers of the Peng family, when Peng Wuxin taught this song to Peng Wuwang and Peng Wuxing, Peng Wuji happened to hear it, and immediately listened to it stupidly, and he must have Peng Ergongzi carefully teach him to sing it carefully, and keep it in his heart.
Normally, as soon as Peng Wuji steals the air, he will sing this song very energetically, Peng Wuwang joked that this pastoral song has become Peng Wuji's wife, and wherever he goes, he will follow him. Peng Wuji patted Peng Wuhope's shoulder hard at that time and said, "Third brother, a good man has ambitions in all directions, although he knows that when he reaches the ends of the earth, he will definitely miss his hometown, but a real man will still embark on the journey without care. Because there are only dozens of cold and summer in the world of life, if you can't experience all the glory and disgrace of life and death, but just survive in obscurity year by year, month by month, isn't it too wasteful?"
Peng Wuwang remembered that he once smiled and said, "The eldest brother's heart is in all directions, but he always wants to go home, so when the time comes, the younger brother will sing this song and bring you back."
Peng Wuji was overjoyed, patted Peng Wuhope's shoulder hard, and said, "If the eldest brother is lost at the ends of the earth in the future, remember, sing this song and take me home."
Peng Wuwang listened to himself singing this pastoral song in a babbling voice, and his eyes were not only full of tears when he thought that his eldest brother would never come back.
He didn't know that when he was singing, there was a group of people listening silently under the shade of the trees by the lake. It was the Turkic Princess Jinxiu and her party who had just come out of Junshan Island by boat. They walked on the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains, and they all concealed their real names and took Han names. Originally, Princess Jinxiu wanted to go to the Nian Gang General Altar to see if the Nian Gang had killed Hong Sixue, but when she heard Peng Wuwang's pastoral song, she made them stop.
"How much energy this man has!" The splendid princess with a light veil whispered.
"It's rare for a person from the Central Plains to have such a heroic singing voice, look at this person's ......momentum," the tall and thin Turkic youth groaned.
"Hey, how's his momentum? Are the mountains and rivers stronger than you?" The Turkic youth of medium stature said with a smile.
"More than a cut above me. It's a battle, don't underestimate him, in my opinion, with just the two of us, although there is a seventy or eighty percent chance of winning, but we don't want to take his life without sacrifice. If we go it alone, we're no match at all." Bashanhe finished his words in one breath.
"I'm not convinced, although his momentum is indeed amazing, a cut above me, but I may not be afraid of him if I fight for my life." But Zhan said sharply.
"No need to argue!" Princess Jinxiu whispered, "This person's martial arts skills are indeed a great threat to his Japanese Turkic army to invade the Tang Dynasty. Originally, I wanted to work with the three of us to take care of him first. However, we have tried our best to keep it secret, and if we expose the bottom in the hand-to-hand encounter, we will lose more than we gain. Moreover, this man has the power to kill one of us before he dies. Whoever we are, we can't die here, so forget it, let's go." With that, he turned and left.
Bashan River followed closely. But Zhan glanced at Peng Wuwang with an unconvinced face, took a sip fiercely, and followed behind Princess Jinxiu and disappeared into the shade.
Peng had no hope of singing pastoral songs, he only felt relaxed, his heart was very happy, and he didn't know that he had really walked before the ghost gate closed. He took a deep breath and said secretly: Okay, first go find a place to heal your stomach, heal your stomach and go to Longjiazhuang, and talk to those key members of the Nian Gang, if they understand the reason and disband the Nian Gang, then it's just that, if they are stubborn, hehe, I can't say it, so I have to cut one by one. By the way, the Red Gang leader may already be on his way, and I have to hurry.
