Chapter 156: The Legend of the White Lady
What people are most afraid of is that these troops from the capital, in fact, the quality of life is already excellent in this era. What they eat and drink can be compared with that of ordinary small landlords. But their standard of living, once they are on the other side, their life becomes inferior to that of beggars.
When the people on the opposite side are eating roasted whole sheep, they are eating bread; When the people on the opposite side extravagantly fed the mutton to the big wolf dog, they were still nibbling on the bread; When the other party drank goat's milk, they drank water from the Yangtze River...... With such a huge gap between the rich and the poor, how do you balance the psychology of people?
Nomads may be tired of eating meat, but this is not a nomadic people, but a people who have been farming for generations, and it is rare to smell meat all year round.
Meat is the supreme delicacy.
The soldiers wanted to eat meat, and Huang Zicheng could only have a sore egg. King Yan is dominating the north, whether it is plundering or using some unconventional means, cattle and sheep are easy to get. There is not much difference between the life of the northern and nomadic peoples. In some places near the border, people will also raise some cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs. But this is not the case in the South, where the main output is food crops.
Mainly glutinous rice, in terms of meat, there is an extreme scarcity. Ordinary families, being able to eat a piece of meat during the New Year is a great enjoyment.
Although silkworms can also be eaten, who is willing to do it? Once fried, you can't afford to spend money on oil. As for the white rice worm, it is still in the hands of the ethnic minorities in the deep mountains and old forests. The people of the Central Plains have never dealt with these people very much, and these toasts are fierce and tight.
In some places, human heads are used to decorate...... And the famous female toast in the last years of the Ming Dynasty swept all directions, and she was still in command in her sixties. What kind of fiction is this, Hua Mulan and Mu Guiying are much more awesome.
The truth is so harsh, even if the emperor has the ability to reach the sky, there is no way to conjure up meat for the front-line soldiers. The soldiers of the South Shore are called envious, jealous and hateful. Watching the immortal chief fight every day, watching the other party's soldiers practice to the death, I can only pray that the immortal chief on my side will be stronger.
If the immortal elders can't withstand this, the soldiers on the opposite side will definitely be able to tear them apart alive.
The white mansion in Hangzhou City, people come and go, and everyone in the city knows that there is such a family, and the hostess is as beautiful as a Bodhisattva. The down-and-out scholar Xu Xian, who was obsessed with the West Lake every day, made Shuzhen's heart melt a little, and gradually gave birth to some pity, and then he wanted to go over to comfort him, and then he liked it inexplicably.
Xu Qing doesn't like Xu Xian very much, as soon as he sees Xu Xian, his nose is not a nose, his face is not a face, he is different from his junior sister, at least Xu Qing has also walked through a period of rivers and lakes, and knows what kind of virtue Xu Xian's little white face is. But if his junior sister doesn't listen, what can Xu Qing do?
As the old saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage, and beat the mandarin ducks with a stick, Xu Qing can't do it.
He could only watch, although he longed for Xu Xian to die.
The world seems to be in a state of turmoil, Juyong Guan fights and fights, King Yan is stuck on the bank of the Yangtze River, Soushen Palace is still blocking Nanjing City, and people in the martial arts are still running to tell each other, full of indescribable hostility to the emerging force of Soushen Palace.
Everything is according to plan, and the only thing that has some influence on future generations is that Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian got married.
Then, in the same year, things that should have happened and things that shouldn't have happened erupted at the same time. Xu Xian gave up in chaos, and Bai Suzhen committed suicide by jumping into the West Lake. They had only been living together for a year, and without Fahai to destroy their family, their family had already fallen apart.
The ungrateful Xu Xian also died, and was killed by Xu Qing himself. It was the first time Xu Qing had killed someone in that cruel way, he pressed Xu Xian to kneel under the Leifeng Pagoda and crushed him to death.
It's different from the legend.
The story that happened here is not pretty. There is no Fahai, only Bai Suzhen, only Xu Xian and Xiaoqing. With a full of grief and indignation, Xu Qing finished what he should have done, returned to Tianji City, and never set foot in Hangzhou again. On the edge of the West Lake, there is gradually a legend......
Bai Suzhen, who threw herself into the lake, gradually turned into a snake demon who had cultivated for thousands of years. Xu Xian, who only had bones left under Leifeng Tower, was replaced by a stolen beam and a pillar to become Bai Suzhen. People make up the poignancy of love in their minds, and there is a scholar who doesn't like Xu Xian, who is chaotic and abandoned, so he tried his best to whitewash it and wrote a book. This was the original version of the Legend of the White Snake.
The thousand-year-old white snake cultivated into a human form and repaid the kindness of the immortals. Xu Xian...... The story is not much different from the later generations, there is a Xu Xian, and there are many people.
Obviously, such stories are more acceptable.
At least Bai Suzhen is much better to throw herself into the river.
Xu Qing also heard this story, and slapped his palm on the stone slab in front of him angrily, turning a stone slab into powder. "Is the world so forgetful? Well, I, Xu Qing, let these stupid mortals see the power of God. Xu Qing took a deep breath.
At this moment, he no longer resisted the task given to him by King Yan.
Such a worldly man, hehe.
In the north, after another battle, Li Feng left the kitten, and he returned to the north bank of the Yangtze River with his men and horses. After being away long enough, he needed to come back and talk to King Yan. He talked to King Yan about the situation in the north, and King Yan also asked people to talk about the situation on the bank of the Yangtze River at the moment.
The monks on both sides are still playing in table tennis, and the soldiers have not been active for a long time. Their people are okay, they practice every day, and their combat effectiveness has not decreased much. But the imperial army on the south bank of the Yangtze River is already idle and moldy. Huang Zicheng doesn't know anything about marching and fighting.
Li Feng's eyes rolled, and he suddenly thought of an idea, and said to King Yan: "Lord Wang, why don't you make a big deal?" ”
"What kind of deal?"
Li Feng leaned in and muttered in King Yan's ear for a while. King Yan laughed when he heard this, patted Li Feng's shoulder, and said, "You madman, the ideas that came out are really evil one by one. ”
The next day, Storm's plan was executed.
Some of the soldiers below put on some makeup, secretly connected with the soldiers opposite, and then began to trade. Mutton, beef, milk tea, and all items can be traded. Either cash or weapons, if you don't have any of these, you can choose to invest in the whole thing.
Although the treatment of the captives was a little worse, the broth was still drinkable.
Huang Zicheng's army secretly connected with each other, without Huang Zicheng's knowledge, in order to eat delicious meat and a better life. In particular, some of the ruffians who have no one at home are even more collective. By the time the matter was reported, the army had lost more than 3,000 men.
It's not that the rest of the people don't want to leave, but that someone in the family can't leave, and the way these people choose is to exchange weapons.
Thereupon......
The knives were gone, the armor was gone, and finally there were no shoes. When the immortals there were not lively, the imperial army was stripped like bare-skinned pigs, and the river breeze was blowing on the south bank without shame. After Huang Zicheng learned the news, he raised the butcher knife and killed a group of people to suppress the atmosphere.
And that's not all.
Huang Zicheng thought about it again and again, this matter could not be reported directly, so he polished it, saying that the weapons were excessively depleted, and asked the emperor for a batch. Huang Zicheng didn't dare to send these weapons directly, so he threw them all into the warehouse, preparing when to fight and when to send them.
You can figure out how Huang Zicheng died with his ass, if he really fights, will he still have time to get weapons?
This is actually no wonder Huang Zicheng, who made Li Feng's idea too vicious?
The situation on the north shore made King Yan very happy. He suddenly had a feeling of raising his eyebrows: "Hmph, when the other party's army all surrenders to Chengcheng, there is not a single soldier, what reason do you immortals have to dominate the river?" "Zhu Di hated these inland immortals.
It's so infuriating.
The matter of mortals fighting for the dynasty is none of your business? And if you want to support it, you don't support me as a wise and martial prince, and you actually support Zhu Yun's stinky boy? It's really eye-catching, and it's not as useful as two stone eggs. Zhu Di thought indignantly in his heart.
On the city wall of Juyongguan, Wen Xiaotian sat cross-legged, and Bai Yezi sat opposite Wen Xiaotian, looking at Wen Xiaotian. This day was a special day, because Wen Xiaotian finally decided to restore his skin and arms.
In the past, there was no condition to recover his arm, but later there were conditions, and the timing was not suitable, and now that the conditions and timing are here, what reason does he have to refuse?
Just three days before Li Feng left, Flying Fairy and Dan Qingsheng were soft and hard, and they were semi-forced to accept Wen Xiaotian and Bai Yezi as disciples. What did the Flying Fairy and Dan Qingsheng think, Wen Xiaotian didn't care too much, what he cared about was that he had such a backer, and he could finally stop the Boundless Ancestor and others.
So, after a few days of precipitation, he decided to recover his body first.
Under the plain silk, from the three ** points, one after another white and delicate skin, only the size of a little thumb belly, grew out rapidly. In just an hour, these skins covered half of Wen Xiaotian's body, making his body look extremely mottled.
At the severed position of the right arm, a bone is growing, and the muscle fibers are also clinging, wriggling out a bulge about a foot high.
After the skin of his whole body was fully grown, Wen Xiaotian stood up. The growth of the skin does not require too much nutrition, and his Sacred Heart Recipe can also be a good nutritional preparation. But to grow an arm completely, it is not a simple momentary effort, and the work can be done.
