Taiping Evil Cloud Chapter 37 Du's Legacy

didn't poke a few times, and the back of the residual plaque was poked out by Boss Dong with a hole about the size of a matchbox, only to see that there were two pages of letterhead folded into tofu blocks hidden in this plaque, one of which was full of words, and it seemed to be Du Wenxiu's suicide note; On the other page, a road map is drawn.

The handwritten text is as follows:

I think that my letter to the king of heaven has not yet been sent, but when I hear the bad news of the holy fall of the king of heaven, I am shocked, sighing, regretting, and painful. Looking at the world today, the king of heaven has fallen, the righteous king has been robbed, the king of England has died, the beginning of the restoration, the clouds have changed, who can be a confidant in the world?

If the king of heaven falls, the fortune of the country is exhausted, and it is the number of the country's qi. The kings, the spark is extinguished, it is the misfortune of the common people. If the comrades are different, they will be desperate, and they will be sad for me.

If you are absolutely ambitious, you have no fun in living, and your husband is standing in the world, how can he steal a life for fame and fortune? If the descendants get my will, relieve my sorrow, will my will, and break the plaque to get the picture, I should take the treasure and raise the army, vow to revolutionize the Manchu Dynasty, save the people, and inherit the will of the king, and I have not fulfilled my remaining responsibilities.

Roughly speaking:

Before the letter I wrote to the king of heaven (Hong Xiuquan) was delivered, I got the news of the death of the king, which was really "surprised, sighed, regretted and grieved". Looking at the world, the king of heaven is hanging, the righteous king (Shi Dakai) is also killed, the king of England (Chen Yucheng) died early, Ma comeback, Ma Yunfeng (that is, Ma Rulong) has rebelled, who else in the world is my confidant?

If the king of heaven hangs, the fortune of the country has been exhausted, and it is the destined number of the country (Taiping Heavenly Kingdom); When all the kings are hung up, the fire is quenched, and it is the misfortune of the people. And all the (revolutionary) comrades have defected, and my (uprising) spirit is gone. This is my own sorrow.

Even the spirit of the uprising is gone, and it is not interesting to live, the eldest husband lives in the world, and he can't steal his life for the sake of high-ranking officials, so he sent a death squad to hide the treasure that the king of heaven sent to me on Diancang Mountain. If future generations have the same ambitions as me, understand my sorrows, understand my thoughts, and find the (treasure) map from the plaque, they should use these treasures to recruit troops and horses to continue the rebellion, determined to overthrow the Manchu rule and save the people from fire and water, so as to continue the unfinished business of the Heavenly King. It's kind of to complete the rest of my mission for me.

"It seems that this buddy didn't forget to tear the flag and rebel until he died......" Looking at this so-called "suicide note", Zhang Yicheng also smiled helplessly, according to what the letter said, this Du Wenxiu took refuge in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it seems that it is not for the sake of keeping warm as Tong Guohu said. It's stupid to really regard Hong Xiuquan as a revolutionary comrade, it seems that this guy really doesn't know that Hong Xiuquan used gold to make urinals until he dies......

"How? Did I guess right? Zhou Yunran was staring at Zhang Yicheng with a smile and said proudly.

"Yes, I ...... Belch...... The Sprinkler family must admit that you are so smart! To be honest, at this moment, Zhang Yicheng has to really admire Zhou Yunran's insight and such subtle mystery. Even Tong Guohu himself didn't notice it, so that it took more than ten years to find the so-called treasure, and now it was done by this little girl in five minutes. If Tong Guohu woke up and knew about this, it is estimated that even if he didn't die of anger on the spot, he would have to fall ill for the rest of his life.

"I see!" Next to the coffee table, Boss Dong had been concentrating on studying the treasure map, and then slapped his thigh violently, "Why is Du Wenxiu's treasure route so strange...... Alas. It's confusing......"

"What do you understand? What's the confusion? Zhang Yicheng also came to Boss Dong, and saw that all the references on this so-called treasure map were nothing more than some city towers, trees, stones, streams, and so on. There is no place name, no scale, and no text description, and the whole has no map. Anyway, with his own ability to identify, he can't find a place with this kind of treasure map anyway.

"It's a shortcut! It's a lot closer than your dad and they're walking! According to Boss Dong's words, the original route into the mountain that instructed Qin Ge was based on the traditional hiking route, and the more than 20 kilometers of mountain road between the ancient city of Dali and the mountain village is actually a hiking route often taken by outdoor enthusiasts, which is exactly half a day's journey, and then you can replenish in the mountain village and return on the same day; "To be honest, I don't know the road marked on the map, because no one has ever walked this way before, and if this road really exists, it will be at least a day's journey closer to the destination than your father's route......"

"One day?" As soon as he heard this, Zhang Yicheng came to his senses, "So, if we leave early tomorrow morning, we can almost arrive at the destination at the same time as my dad?" ”

"Go?" Boss Dong was stunned, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Looking for my dad," Zhang Yicheng said, "Didn't I come to find my dad......"

"Oh......" Boss Dong nodded, his face was happy, it seemed that he was also thinking about an addiction to "Raiders of the Lost Ark" 1, "Since that's the case...... How about I take you? I have also climbed Cangshan several times, and I think the places marked in this map are ...... I should be able to find it! ”

"Okay!" Zhang Yicheng was desperate to let himself enter the mountain with such a treasure map covered by clouds and mountains and fog, and he had to die in the mountain.

"Yicheng...... I ......" Zhang Yicheng was chatting with Boss Dong hotly, and Zhou Yunran seemed to be unable to help it, "Can I go?" ”

"Uh...... You......? Zhang Yicheng was stunned for a moment, "Ranran, you wait for me here, we'll be back soon......"

"Yicheng...... I ......" I saw Zhou Yunran pursing her lips, as if she was holding back not crying, "I just want to ......"

"Ranran, listen to me, climbing a mountain is not a fun thing......" Zhang Yicheng dragged Zhou Yunran aside, "Especially this kind of wild mountain, there is not even a road, tired people don't pay for their lives, maybe there will be danger......"

"Yicheng...... I really want to go with you......" Zhou Yunran pursed her lips, her voice was as small as a mosquito, "I'm not afraid of being tired, I'm not afraid of danger, I'm not afraid of anything......"

"Are you afraid of ghosts...... you?" Zhang Yicheng was also helpless, remembering that when he went to inspect the house in Fukang Garden, Yunran seemed to be quite afraid of ghosts this week. I wanted to talk about the topic of gods and ghosts, "That big brother Tong is like that, have you forgotten ......?" ”

"I'm not afraid ......" Zhou Yunran seemed to be determined to follow.

"Oh, yes, obedient!" Zhang Yicheng frowned, "Your mother is no longer here." In case you make another mistake, how can I explain it to your cousin? ”

"Hmm...... Okay then......" Zhou Yunran nodded reluctantly with a face full of grievances, and a stream of tears rolled around in her eyes, which was really distressing.

"You'll take her with you!" Boss Dong on the side really couldn't stand it, "What the hell is not a ghost!" What age are you, why are you still using that thing to scare other girls? ”

"Huh?" Zhang Yicheng definitely didn't expect that this Boss Dong could speak for Zhou Yunran. "Boss Dong, this ...... In case there is any danger......"

"What is dangerous? What kind of risk? It's not to climb Mount Everest, climb a broken mountain, what danger can there be? Boss Dong walked up to Zhou Yunran and looked Zhou Yunran's figure up and down. Girl, can you swim? ”

"Yes!" Zhou Yunran stared at Boss Dong, her eyes were full of gratitude, and she pursed her lips and nodded.

"Can you swim down 200 meters?" Boss Dong continued to ask.

"Yes!" Zhou Yunran continued to nod, "I can swim five hundred meters!" ”

"No problem!" Boss Dong was categorical, "Pack up your things and set off with us tomorrow morning!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhou Yunran burst into tears and smiled, "Thank you, Brother Dong!" ”

"Xiao Zhang. I'm in charge of this! The girl helped you find this thing, but you didn't take anyone to play, did you do this? "Boss Dong dangled the treasure map in his hand." If you don't want to take her, then you can go yourself! ”

"Okay...... Bring...... "......Zhang Yicheng was also helpless, and after thinking about it, the plaque belonged to Boss Dong, and the letter paper inside was discovered by Zhou Yunran, and he didn't have any credit from beginning to end." Naturally, there is no right to decide who goes and who doesn't," Brother Dong. Do you want to swim halfway through? ”

"Swimming is the most physical and endurance sport!" Boss Dong said, "I can swim 200 meters." That is, the physical strength of swimming two round trips in the 50-meter standard swimming pool is the entry standard for hiking and mountaineering, and if you can swim 500 meters, it will definitely not be a problem! ”

"Can you really swim 500 meters......?" Zhang Yicheng also agrees with Boss Dong's statement that he measures physical fitness by swimming, but he doesn't believe that Zhou Yunran can really swim 500 meters, with his own physical fitness, running ten kilometers is not a problem, but if it is changed to swimming, I am afraid that if she swims for a kilometer, she will be tired and vomit blood......

"If you don't believe it, I'll show you tomorrow!" Zhou Yunran looked unconvinced.

"Alright, alright...... Save some physical strength to climb the mountain......" Zhang Yicheng didn't bother to be more serious about this matter, and simply put Du Wenxiu's letter on the coffee table again, to be honest, from the time he first saw this letter, Zhang Yicheng felt that the posture of this line of writing between the lines seemed to be seen somewhere, "Why is it so familiar......?" Yes! I remember! Wait for me here! Staring at the letter on the coffee table, Zhang Yicheng slapped his thigh, stood up and trotted all the way back to the room.

Since the last time he came back from Cangzhou, the big bag containing the magic weapon has not been touched much, and Jiang Jun's exercise books full of radicals have been placed in it and not taken out, and now seeing Du Wenxiu's handwriting, Zhang Yicheng suddenly remembered that although the words written by Jiang Jun are incomplete, the outline of the strokes is very similar to Du Wenxiu's handwriting.

Taking out Jiang Jun's exercise book scribbled in the middle of the night from the package, Zhang Yicheng returned to the upstairs of the café, and compared it with Du Wenxiu's handwritten handwriting, sure enough, at least with Zhang Yicheng's understanding of calligraphy, the style of the two brushes is no different.

"This ...... Isn't that what my cousin wrote? Zhou Yunran is naturally no stranger to the exercise book brought by Zhang Yicheng.

"Hey...... He's not your cousin......" Zhang Yicheng smiled, and he had already guessed in his heart that he was not far from ten, if nothing else, I'm afraid that kite Jiang Jun and Bacheng are the reincarnation of Du Wenxiu!

"Who? Who isn't my cousin? Zhou Yunran looked curious, "Could it be ...... Is that what my cousin wrote? ”

"Boss Dong, do you have an envelope?" Zhang Yicheng had already calculated the plan in his heart.

"Yes?" Boss Dong was stunned, "You wait, I'll bring it to you...... Is it okay to have a regular envelope? ”

"Bigger, better!" Zhang Yicheng waved the exercise books in his hand, "It's best to fit these exercise books!" ”

……

Outside the inn, at the crossroads.

After a burst of smoke, Jiang Jun's blind exercise book was burned into ashes in four or five large brown paper envelopes, according to Zhang Yicheng's assumption, in Du Wenxiu's suicide note, it seems to mention that the letter to Hong Xiuquan has been written, but it has not been sent before Hong's death is heard, if this is the case, then Du Wenxiu seems to have something important to say to Hong Xiuquan, but in the end he failed to do so, if Jiang Jun's cause of "Yesterday's Disease" is really because of this, then burning the letter to "Hong Tianwang" can resolve his grievances, Theoretically, the steps are no different from the traditional paper-burning customs of the Qingming Festival.

"Ranran, I'll call your cousin later, let him sleep steadily, if you still get up and write, I will cut off the meridians by myself......" Looking at the small whirlwind blowing at the incineration site, Zhang Yicheng knew that he was done......

The greater the resentment, the heavier the soul yin qi, so it cannot achieve yin and yang balance with the fragile yang energy of the newborn, and it cannot be reincarnated. In the traditional sense, most of the excesses are to deceive the soul in order to achieve the purpose of fulfilling the last wish of the deceased and reducing resentment. However, not all wishes can be fulfilled by means of fraud, such as this Du Wenxiu's last wish.

Based on the analysis of the content of the suicide note, Du Wenxiu's wish is to overthrow the Manchu rule, and this kind of poetic and historical wish is not the same as the wish of ordinary grass people to "have a hot kang head for their wives and children", and it is definitely not a problem that can be solved by burning some paper money and tying a few straw men. According to Zhang Yicheng's analysis, Du Wenxiu not only had his grand wish unfulfilled during his lifetime, but also died of being beheaded after taking poison, and his death was tragic and accompanied by suicide. The reason why he was able to reincarnate as a male fox Jiang Jun at such a fast speed is likely to be because Mr. Sun Yat-sen led the Xinhai Revolution to overthrow the Manchu rule, and realized his wish for this person in disguise. It seems that Tong Guohu did misunderstand his ancestors, and the rebellion was not because he only wanted to be the emperor, but because he really wanted to overthrow the corrupt Qing court, establish a new order, and save the people from fire and water; Once this wish is realized, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor. The fact that his soul can be successfully reincarnated into a male fox Jiang Jun is a good proof......
