Chapter 27 (2)
In the wide carriage, Meng Xingyuan said to Ah Feng: "Ah Feng, can I learn mana from you? If I learn your mana, I can show it in front of people at any time, that must be cool enough." ”
Ah Feng smiled and said, "You think like this, it's fundamentally wrong. First of all, mana is not for display, and thirdly, if you don't have the slightest foundation, learning mana will only bring you disaster. “
"Hey. Meng Xingyuan sighed, "Let's not say that sooner or later we will return to the twenty-first century, those stinky Taoist priests will definitely continue to trouble us, even in this era, I can protect myself by learning a little." ”
"I can protect you. I'm your bodyguard!"
Meng Xingyuan laughed: "Haha, don't be so exaggerated, my bodyguard is a fairy." Don't say that Qin Shi Huang didn't have this kind of treatment, I think, no one has wow!"
Ah Feng said: "You don't need to say that I am a fairy, I know that I am a female ghost now." Actually, I think it's better to be a female ghost than a fairy, at least you can be free and free without so many constraints. ”
After being silent for a while, Meng Xingyuan said again: "Do you remember that your Wang Lang is here again? Don't be discouraged, you will definitely meet again." ”
"Huh. Ah Feng smiled bitterly, "Thank you for your comfort, people often say the word - fate." When I was in Heaven, I also heard many bodhisattvas explain. Therefore, it is bearish. “
Meng Xingyuan hurriedly changed the topic: "Haha, I'm so lucky, my bodyguard is a female ghost." I think I'm definitely the only one who has never been before, and who has never been since. ”
Ah Feng didn't want to talk about this sad topic anymore, and also smiled: "Yes, ask the female ghost to be a bodyguard, you must be the only one." ”
"I suddenly felt like what an amazing experience I was having. Meng Xingyuan said, "I was originally an unemployed young man, just because I wanted to save someone I didn't know, I actually went to the Netherworld, and now I actually came to the Qin Dynasty." It's something I never dreamed of. In addition, we were going to see Qin Shi Huang, originally to help those who went to build the Great Wall, but in the end we brought hundreds of thousands of people to fight, and after the battle, they would contribute to the construction of the Great Wall. The results we got were so far from what we were aiming for at the beginning. “
"This is the helplessness and charm of the impermanence of the world, if everything we do can achieve the original purpose, will life be a lot less wonderful and surprising?" Ah Feng said very seriously, "However, I don't regret coming here at all." “
"I don't regret it either. Meng Xingyuan shook his head and said, "In addition to the fact that we really helped Meng Po, we also got benefits ourselves." ”
Ah Feng asked with some curiosity, "What benefits have you gotten?"
"Well, for example, in addition to finding a female ghost to be my bodyguard, I've successfully quit smoking. Hey. ”
"Haha. Ah Feng also laughed together, "You can't buy cigarettes here, and there is no way if you don't quit smoking." ”
They had enough of laughing, and Ah Feng started a serious topic. She said: "I don't know what Qin Shi Huang called you back this time. ”
"It doesn't matter what happens," Meng Xingyuan stretched, "as long as you don't tell me to stay in the palace." ”
"Isn't it good to stay in the palace? at least you don't have to work hard to fight. “
"I'm not fit to stay with the Emperor. Meng Xingyuan said, "First, there is a saying that 'accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger', you have to be careful every day, where is there to be comfortable outside? Second, except for the Mengshi family, I have no relationship in the imperial court, which is easy to be excluded and suppressed by others." Third, if I am fighting outside, with your help, I will definitely keep the people safe. “
"I've always felt that in addition to your appearance, you don't have deep vision. During this time, you have made considerable progress. ”
"It's not that there is a lot of progress, it's that your opinion is wrong......" Before he finished speaking, Meng Xingyuan felt that the carriage suddenly stopped.
The soldiers who escorted him also came over and said, "Marshal Meng, someone has blocked our way. ”
"What?" Meng Xingyuan was furious, "Who dares to stop our car?"
The soldier continued: "The marshal has misunderstood, it is no one else, it is the common people who have come to send you. ”
Meng Xingyuan was stunned for a moment, and then his heart became hot. He immediately lifted the curtain excitedly and exited the carriage. I saw hundreds of people standing in front of the carriage, blocking the road. Some of them held wine jars, some held roasted meat, and some carried half a bag of grain.
"General Meng, we are reluctant to let you go. An old man with gray hair said with tears in his eyes.
The others also shouted: "General Meng, you can't go." Let's stay for everyone. ”
Meng Xingyuan's nose was sour, and he couldn't hold back his tears anymore. He burst into tears, and the common people began to cry.
"General Meng, you have done so many good things for our people, we don't want you to leave. The old man knelt down as he spoke. The others also knelt down, and a large number of people fell to their knees.
Meng Xingyuan hurriedly hugged the old man: "Uncle, don't do this." Hurry up!"
The old man hugged Meng Xingyuan's arm and cried even more: "General Meng, don't go!"
"Uncle, the king's order cannot be violated. Also, I didn't say I wouldn't be coming back. Meng Xingyuan also shed tears again and again. The soldiers behind Meng Xingyuan also began to wipe their tears.
Look, this is our people, their eyes are bright, as long as they do good things for them, do practical things, they will remember it. Even if it is a monument made of stone, it will collapse, but the monument in the hearts of the common people will never be destroyed!
"You mean, you'll be back soon, aren't you?" asked the old man, holding back his tears.
"This ......" Meng Xingyuan didn't dare to guarantee it.
"Uncle, listen to me. The soldiers beside Meng Xingyuan said, "Our General Meng is only temporarily returning to Xianyang Miansheng, not that he will never come back, but to seek more benefits for everyone." Maybe it won't be long before General Meng returns. ”
"General Meng, is this true?" the old man asked, staring into Meng Xingyuan's eyes.
Meng Xingyuan didn't dare to guarantee that he would come back soon, but he couldn't bear to disappoint the old man and the people, so he had to nod.
The old man immediately turned his worries into joy and said to the crowd behind him, "Haha." Folks, have you heard? General Meng will come back, so don't be sad. ”
As soon as the people heard this, they clapped their hands excitedly and applauded, and the oppressive atmosphere was swept away.
"Since General Meng will be back soon, we don't need to give him these things. Bring the wine, let's have a good drink with General Meng, and hope that he can return as soon as possible. ”
Immediately someone brought a jar of wine and several large bowls. Meng Xingyuan turned the wine jar, personally poured a bowl of wine for the old man, and then handed the wine to the soldiers behind him. The soldiers and the people poured their wines and raised their bowls together.
"I respect everyone. Meng Xingyuan said loudly, "Thank you for your concern for me, and I am reluctant to leave you." Don't say those unhappy words, come, let's do it together!"
After the soldiers and civilians drank the wine in the bowl together, someone brought beef and mutton. Meng Xingyuan simply sat on the ground with everyone, taking the ground as a seat, eating meat and drinking wine in a big bowl. The sun is warm, the breeze is blowing, and it is a picture of military and civilian fun!
Many people came to salute Meng Xingyuan's wine, he did not refuse to come, and he would do it every time, and won everyone's applause.
After eating and drinking, Meng Xingyuan stood up, saluted the crowd, and said loudly: "Fellow villagers, I thank you for seeing me off. Actually, I didn't want to leave for a day, but this was an order from our emperor and I had to go back to Xianyang. I promise, I'll be back in the shortest possible time. When the time comes, let's drink together again, shall we?"
"Okay, let's wait for General Meng to come back!" the people responded.
None of them noticed that in the woods not far away, there were two pairs of treacherous eyes that had been staring at Meng Xingyuan for a long time. When they saw that Meng Xingyuan was about to set off, they quietly withdrew from the woods, mounted fast horses, and ran away as fast as they could.
