Chapter 6 Doorman (Red Ticket Plus Update)
Hearing the footsteps behind him, the tall middle-aged man turned around, the middle-aged man wore a sandalwood martial crown, thick eyebrows and a nose, his face was blue, and there was a hint of gloom, and his solemn expression had a kind of majesty that had been in a high position for a long time.
"You're the new entrant Nie Li?" Yang Ye said lightly.
"Down there is Nie Li, meet the hall master!" Nie Li frowned slightly, and immediately replied respectfully.
"Yes! A certain family is said to be in the palace for a few days, and there are many affairs in the hall that are not noticed, I don't know if the two disciples of a certain family can treat you slowly? Yang Ye turned around and knelt down in front of the desk in the middle hall.
"Don't dare, I just entered the museum today, Qingsheng and Senior Brother greeted a certain thoughtfully, and I am grateful for it, and I can't talk about treating it slowly!" Xu Mo said slowly.
Yang Ye's attitude towards him was a bit unexpected by Xu Mo. It is absolutely impossible for Xu Mo to say that the other party did not realize its value, otherwise the other party would not have come out of the palace to see him immediately after Gao Yan's report.
Yang Ye's current attitude is only two possibilities, one is that Xu Mo has not yet become his disciple, it is just a result of his identity as a disciple, and the other is that Yang Ye is scheming, this attitude is just a test for him, to test whether Xu Mo himself knows the value of the bellows, so that he can get the bellows for less or even no cost.
According to Xu Mo's analysis, I am afraid that there are both possibilities, which also makes him a little disappointed in Yang Ye. He had no way of knowing what Yang Ye's swordsmanship was, but Yang Ye's two disciples, Qingsheng and Gao Yan, had already been recognized by Xu Mo.
Qingsheng is a humble person, respectful in treating people peacefully, and elegant without losing etiquette, so he can be said to be a humble gentleman. Gao gradually is bold, open-minded, thick and fine, and does not think Xu Mo is poorly dressed, and treats him coldly, but treats him warmly and actively climbs friends, which can be said to be a downright man.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, there were many guests of the wealthy families who sent food, and these guests usually said that when they had nothing to do, they helped in the master's house, and if the master had something, they would give advice and fight for their lives.
Of course, there are also classifications among the doormen, and the most inferior doormen just live in the host's house, usually just trying to eat a bite, and there is a place to live, if something happens to the host, they will scatter. And some of the gentlemen who are quite resourceful and forceful, if the host treats them as distinguished guests and national soldiers, then once the host has something, they will also share weal and woe and live and die together.
Most of these guests are ordinary people, but there are also some husbands who value kindness and righteousness, such as Yu Rang, a native of the Jin Kingdom in the Spring and Autumn Period in the real world.
Yu Rang was originally given to the Fan clan of the Jin Kingdom, and then to the Zhongxing clan as a retainer, all of which were unknown. It wasn't until he became Zhibo's retainer that he was reused, and the relationship between the ministers was very close, and Zhibo respected him very much. Just when his situation was improving, Zhibo attacked Zhao Xiangzi, Zhao Xiangzi, Han and Wei worked together to destroy Zhibo, and after eliminating Zhibo, Zhao Xiangzi painted his skull into drinking utensils.
Yu Rang fled to the mountains, thinking about the benefits of Zhibo, resenting Zhao Xiangzi for making Zhibo's head into lacquerware, containing wine syrup, vowing to avenge Zhibo, and assassinating Zhao Xiangzi.
So, he changed his name and surname, disguised himself as a tortured person, and entered Zhao Xiang's womb to repair the toilet. He carried a dagger and waited for an opportunity to assassinate Zhao Xiangzi. Zhao Xiangzi went to the toilet, had a premonition, and questioned the person who repaired the toilet, only to know that it was Yu Rang, and there was a sharp knife hidden in his clothes, and then Yu Rang was arrested by Zhao Xiangzi. When interrogated, Yu Rang said bluntly: "I want to avenge Zhibo!" "The guards are going to kill him. Xiangzi said: "He is a righteous man, and I will be careful to avoid it." Moreover, there is no heir after Zhibo's death, and his retainers want to avenge him, this is the wise man of the world. In the end, he was let go.
Soon after, Yu Rang, in order to facilitate his actions and successfully realize his intention of revenge, did not hesitate to apply paint on his body, so that his skin was rotten like leprosy, and swallowed charcoal fire to make his voice hoarse, and he disguised himself to make his appearance unrecognizable, and begged for food along the street. Even his wife didn't know him anymore.
When he met his friend on the way, he recognized him and said, "Aren't you Yu Rang?" ”
Yu Rang replied, "It's me." ”
The friend said with tears in his eyes: "With your talents, commit yourself to serving Zhao Xiangzi, and Zhao Xiangzi will definitely be close to and love you." Wouldn't it be easy for you to do what you want to do then! ”
Yu Rang said: "After serving others, I want to kill him, this is a monarch who serves him with a different heart." He thought that it would be contrary to the righteousness of the monarch and the ministers.
Yu Rang figured out the time and route for Zhao Xiangzi to come out. On the day when Zhao Xiangzi was going out, he was ambushed under a bridge in advance. When Zhao Xiangzi crossed the bridge, the horse was suddenly frightened and guessed that someone had assassinated him, and it was probably Yu Rang. His subordinates went to investigate, and it was not bad.
Zhao Xiangzi asked Yu Rang: "Didn't you once serve the Fan family and the Zhongxing family?" Zhibo wiped them all out, and instead of avenging them, you entrusted you to be Zhibo's retainer. Zhibo is dead, why are you so eager to avenge him? ”
Yu Rang said: "I serve the Fan clan and the Zhongxing clan, and they all treat me as an ordinary person, so I repay them like an ordinary person." As for Zhibo, he treated me as a national soldier, so I repaid him like a national soldier. ”
Zhao Xiangzi was very moved, but felt that he could no longer let Yu Rang go, so he ordered the soldiers to surround him. Yu Rang knew that there was no hope of survival and could not fulfill his vow to assassinate Zhao Xiangzi, so he asked Zhao Xiangzi to take off one of his clothes and let him assassinate him symbolically. Zhao Xiangzi met his request, and sent someone to take his clothes to Yu Rang, Yu Rang pulled out his sword and jumped up to stab it many times, looking up to the sky and shouting: "I can report to Zhibo!" Then he committed suicide with a sword.
Yu Rang assassinated Zhao Xiangzi, sacrificed his life and forgot about death, prepared for hardships, although he was unsuccessful, he repaid Zhibo's kindness with his life. He avenged Zhibo because Zhibo valued him, respected him, and gave him dignity, so he wanted to sacrifice his life to avenge Zhibo and defend Zhibo's dignity with his life.
Of course, in addition to a big husband like Yu Rang, there are also some people with special abilities among the doormen, such as a doorman under Meng Weijun during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Once, Meng Yanjun led all the guests to envoy to Qin, and the king of Qin left him behind, wanting him to be the prime minister, but Meng Yanjun did not dare to offend the king of Qin, so he had to stay. Soon, the ministers persuaded the King of Qin: "Leaving Meng Weijun is not good for the Qin State, he was born in a royal family, has a fief in the Qi State, and has a family, how can he really do things for the Qin State?" King Qin Zhao felt justified, so he changed his mind and put Meng Weijun and his men under house arrest, just waiting to find an excuse to kill them.
King Qin Zhao has a most favored concubine, as long as the concubine says one, King Zhao will never say two. Meng Weijun sent someone to ask her for help. The concubine agreed, on the condition that she would be rewarded with the unparalleled fox white fur of Qi Kingdom. This made it difficult for Meng Weijun, because as soon as he arrived in the Qin State, he dedicated this fox white fur to King Qin Zhao. At this moment, a doorman said, "I can find the fox white fur!" With that, he left.
It turns out that this doorman is the best at stealing things through dog holes. He first found out the situation and knew that King Zhao was very fond of the fox fur, so he was reluctant to wear it for a while, so he put it in the boutique storage room in the palace. By moonlight, he escaped the eyes of the patrolmen and easily went into the storage room to steal the fox fur out. The concubine was very happy to see the fox Baiqiu, and tried every means to persuade King Qin Zhao to give up the idea of killing Meng Weijun, and prepared to make a trip for him in two days and send him back to the Qi Kingdom.
Meng Weijun didn't dare to wait for two more days, he was afraid that King Qin would regret it, so he immediately led his men to secretly ride a horse to the east overnight. It was the middle of the night when I arrived at Hangu Pass. According to the laws and regulations of the Qin State, the door is opened only when the rooster crows in Hanguguan every day, and how can the rooster crow in the middle of the night? When everyone was worried, they only heard a few roosters crowing, and then, the roosters outside the city gate crowed.
It turned out that another of Meng Weijun's disciples would learn to crow a chicken, and the chicken would immediately crow as soon as it heard the first cry. Although the soldiers guarding the gate felt strange, they had to get up and open the gate according to the rules and let them out.
At dawn, King Qin Zhao learned that Meng Weijun and his party had fled, and immediately sent men and horses to chase after him. Chased to Hangu Pass, people have been out of the customs for a long time. Meng Weijun relied on the rooster and dog thief, left the Qin State, and fled back to the Qi State.
Although these people from the door are the ancients of Xu Mo's real world, the secular world of this mirror world is not much different from the Spring and Autumn period of Xu Mo's real world. It is enough to explain the attitude of people in this era towards doormen.
Xu Mo presented Yang Guo with a bellows, an important artifact that can change the quality of a team's equipment, and he himself is also a powerful man, so it can be said that he can give him the name of a strange man.
It stands to reason that Yang Ye should be prepared with enough courtesies and pay respects to such strange people, instead of putting on a condescending attitude like now, which is why Xu Mo will be disappointed in Yang Ye.
Thinking of this, Xu Mo secretly sneered in his heart, since Yang Ye used such an unpopular means to test him, then he didn't have to be polite. Playing scheming, Xu Daguan will be afraid of a swordsman?
"Yes! Even if you are quite powerful, and you also want to cultivate swordsmanship, you can throw yourself into my disciple and be my disciple! It's just that although the palace is often blessed by the royal family, it is not rich, and if you have a strange thing, you can pay tribute to the royal family and do our best to do our meager strength! Yang Ye said lightly.
"Huh? Alas, it seems that there is no chance with the Sword Pavilion in the next, and there is no chance with superb sword skills, not to mention that there is already a teacher in the next, and you can't vote for another teacher without the permission of the teacher, which is the strange thing, and it was also seen when I was young, and the time has passed, and the impression has been blurred, if it can't be created. Staying in your hotel, I am afraid that it will be a waste of money and food, and I am extremely ashamed, so don't pass it away! Xu Mo pretended to be distressed, then stood up and was about to leave his seat.
