Chapter 003: Brother and Sister

This time, it was Jian Jian who spoke: "I think Yulan is right!"

"I often discuss the affairs of the world with Master Yu, and I probably understand: The king treats his subordinates with courtesy, sincerity, benevolence, and weal and woe, who is willing to die for him?

"Hou, uncle, son, and man, it's the same, if you treat your subordinates harshly, who will be truly loyal to you?

"Qingqing has a bad temper, often punishes soldiers, the virtue of a meal is repaid, and the grievances of Jianqing will be repaid, I often warn him, but I see that the left ear is in, the right ear is out, and I am not convinced, I am very worried about him.

"The great defeat of the party and the loss of salt water (Yishui) are precisely because of the decline of the office, arrogance and lasciviousness, and the depravity of morality.

"Menglong is a good seedling, but he is dull by nature, he loves to be sulky, arrogant and stubborn, and he should be disciplined more!"

Uncle Gu was enlightened, and said angrily: "Tie up the dream dragon!"

Solemnly and busily said: "Ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, it is not an overnight thing, Menglong is still a dream worm, don't be in a hurry." ”

The two guards who were about to do it heard solemnly say this, and did not do it immediately.

The sword said to the few boys who were speechless and motionless: "Do you think that the battlefield is tens of thousands of miles away from you? Maybe when you open your eyes one morning, the people of Chu will be in front of you!"

Uncle Qi said angrily: "It's you who should get out! Take Menglong back! The others, go to the old village and wait by yourself, and let the seventh brother punish them! Get out of here! In the future, you are not allowed to enter the Hu'an Palace at will!"

The sword is ranked seventh, so the uncle is called "Seventh Brother".

Jian Jian glared at a few boys, and said coldly: "Look at me when I come back after the matter, how to clean you up!"

Thirty-six plans, go first, a few children like a hare out of the trap, a smoke and run away.

Mrs. Ba Yongqiu pulled Yu Yulan's sister and brother to her side early to check the injury, except for the strangulation marks, there was no major problem, and she comforted her softly, and the two sisters went with Yu Ying

-β€”β€” it turned out that Qi Rui's wife and Yu Chang's wife were both daughters of the Zheng family, and the children often played together, so their relationship was different from others. Ying is two and a half years older than Menglong.

Ba Yongqiu took Yu Menglong away, and Yu Yu and the others went to the hall to talk about business.

The crowd dispersed.

This is not the first time that Yu Menglong has been punished, and his expression is very calm.

Seeing that his son was young, Ba Yongqiu almost caused a major event that was critical to his life, but he was like nothing and did not repent, so he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart, and he didn't say a word on the road.

Just passing by the corridor in front of Wen Mengyuan, the only place in the Hu'an Palace in the Zangfu Mansion that is comparable to the lady's residence, Wen Xiangyuan, a small white shadow suddenly emerged from the corner and hit Ba Yongqiu's body.

Ba Yongqiu said angrily: "It's not too messy!" raised his right hand and was about to draw it towards the white shadow, only to see that it was his daughter Yu Mengyu. It turned out that she was playing a chase game with the maids and accidentally bumped into her.

Ba Yongqiu said angrily: "It seems that you are also trying to find it uncomfortable!" shouted to an older maid: "Bring it to Wenxiang Garden!"

The maid hurriedly said, "Madame, stop being angry. It's us who are not careful. ”

Ba Yongqiu said no more, and walked quickly to his residence. The maid had no choice but to obey.

As soon as she arrived at the gate of Wen Xiangyuan, she heard her mother shouting, "Tie up!"

Yu Mengyu is more than three years old and less than four years old this year, and he was frightened, and a cry of "wow" will come out.

"Why are you crying? I didn't say I was going to tie you up!" the maid who brought Mengyu wanted to laugh, but she didn't dare to laugh.

Hearing that it was not to tie himself up, Zhu Mengyu immediately stopped crying, and entered Wenxiang Garden with the maid, only to see that his brother Zhu Menglong was tied up by the guards, did not dare to speak, and stood far away.

After a while, someone took a thumb-thick yellow wattle strip.

Madame took the Yellow Vitex and slammed it at the buttocks and thighs of the Menglong, scolding as she smoked: "There are good people under the Yellow Vitex, and I don't think it's over yet!"

"Smack!" once, twice, three times......

Yellow vitex is flexible, and when it hits the body, it does not hurt the muscles and bones, but it hurts so much that it penetrates into the heart.

She found that her brother didn't seem to be in so much pain, let alone screaming or begging for mercy, and felt that the yellow vitex was not pumped on her brother's body, but on her own body, and every time her mother pumped, her heart tensed once, and the muscles of her whole body twitched once.

After more than 30 hits, Ba Yongqiu's hand weakened, but he still didn't understand his hatred, and said to a guard: "You keep fighting!"

The guard knelt down and said, "Madam, the villain has heavy hands, how can he bear it! What's more, every time Menglong is punished, he never begs for mercy, and if he continues to fight like this, even if he is killed, it is useless!"

Ba Yongqiu sighed, threw away the yellow wattle strip in his hand, and said, "Punish standing for three hours! Not a drop of water is allowed to drink!"

Ba Yongqiu turned around and wanted to enter the room, when he suddenly saw Mengyu and several maids with earthy faces, and said, "Send Mengyu back to the room!

The maid hurriedly led the dream away.

The dragon was unroped and stood in front of a window in his mother's bedroom.

Ba Yongqiu returned to the inner room, and a maid brought water, and she waved her hand. The maid went out, drew the door of the house, and stood outside the door.

Ba Yongqiu's anger did not subside, and he lay down on the couch with his eyes half-closed and half-open.

After a while, drowsiness hit, and Ba Yongqiu fell asleep.

The Queen Mother of the West and the Heavenly Master of Wu Xian descended from the sky one after the other, and arrived at the back garden of Hu'an Palace, Ba Yongqiu was flattered and hurriedly greeted him.

The Queen Mother of the West said to Ba Yongqiu: "You will lead us to see the flowers and grasses you raise." ”

Ba Yongqiu didn't dare to say much, leading the way in front, and the two immortals watched and commented in the back, but Ba Yongqiu couldn't understand what they said.

After a week in the back garden of Hu'an Palace, the two guests, the Queen Mother of the West and the Heavenly Master Wu Xian, said something to Ba Yongqiu respectively.

The strange thing is that Ba Yongqiu only saw the mouths of the two great immortals moving constantly, but he couldn't hear what was said clearly, trying to hear clearly, but the harder he tried, the more he couldn't understand.

According to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", the Queen Mother of the West lives in Kunlun Mountain, echoing the Eastern Princes (Emperor Donghua) who rules the East.

In later generations, the Queen Mother of the West was evolved into the Queen Mother by Taoism. But the Ba people only know that the Queen Mother of the West is their great god, and they don't know that their goddess will empathize with each other later.

Besides, Wuxian Tianshi is the most popular religion of the Ba peopleβ€”β€”β€” the ancestor of the Witch Cult, the leader of the Witch Cult, and the wizard with the highest spell in history.

Wicca has a close relationship with Taoism. During the reign of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Ling, a native of Peiguofeng (now Fengxian County, Jiangsu), entered Shu (Chengdu), extensively absorbed the primitive beliefs of ethnic minorities in western Sichuan, and founded the Wudou Rice Dao (Tianshi Dao). And the five buckets of rice Dao, its essence is still witchcraft (ghost road).

The Tao of the Heavenly Master inherited the tradition of believing in ghosts in the witch religion, and integrated the Tao of Huang Lao to form a major religion in China - Taoism. The decline of witchcraft, the rise of Taoism, and the rise of Taoism is closely related to the witchcraft of Shu County and Ba County.

Therefore, the spells that the Taoist sect leader Taishang Laojun knows, Wu Xian Tianshi has long known.

"Knock knock", Ba Yongqiu woke up, only to understand that it was Nan Ke's dream.

A gentle knock on the door interrupted the dream, and Ba Yongqiu said impatiently, "Who is knocking on the door?"

Licorice, the little maid standing outside the door, replied: "Madam, it's Mengyu knocking, I'll take her away." ”

"Why are you back? Let her in. ”

Yu Mengyu changed into a red-colored refined coat and slipped through the crack in the gently opened door.

The appearance of the dream language is very ingenious, everyone loves him, and his personality is lively, and he likes it the most.

And because his son Zhu Menglong has been dull since he was a child, Hu Anbo and Yu often forget that Hu Menglong is here to undertake the historical mission of Hu Anshan as if he has forgotten his mission, and he likes his daughter more than his son, as the flesh in the palm of his hand and the blood in his heart.

The lady said to her daughter Mengyu, who was trotting over, "If you don't go out to play, what are you doing here?"

"I want to come and sleep. ”

"Okay, come up. ”

The maid Licorice saw that the lady was lying down in her clothes, opened the bedding, and withdrew again.

Dream Yu and his body burrowed into the bed, and his eyes were as round as almond kernels.

Madame said, "What are you going to do when you want to sleep, open your eyes?"

"I want to talk about the Book of Mountains. ”

The lady smiled lightly and began to tell a small story in the "Book of Mountains", but before she could finish it, her daughter was already asleep.

Ba Yongqiu looked at her sweet sleeping posture and tender red face, and thought: "I hope she will not follow my old path in the future, be forced to marry, and never be elected to the king's harem." ”

Ba Yongqiu remembered the dream he had just had, and he didn't know what the gods were, remembering that when his daughter Mengyu was born a few years ago, a very special fragrance overflowed from the delivery room, and everyone was different.

At the time, there was suspicion that the sorceress who delivered the birth had burned a special spice in order to create a "vision" in order to get more rewards from her master, but the sorceress denied it.

Ba Yongqiu rested for a while, his spirit improved, and he looked at the Menglong who was standing outside through the curtain of the window, and saw that he was motionless, and once again remembered the dream just now, and remembered another dream he had had:

One night shortly after marrying in Hu'an Palace, Ba Yongqiu dreamed that a giant dragon rushed out of the ground with the flood, forming an ocean.

A few days later, a sub-tribe of Wanfeng Village on Hu'an Mountain came to report: a large water suddenly appeared from the ground to which it belongs, rushing out of the fertile field of the three dams, and after the big water, there is a pond mouth that continues to produce water.

The husband said with a smile: "This is a dream of the lady." ”

After October, Ba Yongqiu gave birth to a son, Fang Wu Menglong was pregnant, and said: "The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each with a name, and it is better to name the dragon a child." He also took the nickname "Dream Dragon", and many people called it "Dream Dragon".

β€”β€”β€”β€” Ba people are very superstitious, and since then, Ba Yongqiu often recalls these two dreams, sometimes they feel vague, sometimes they feel like they have experienced it herself, and she believes that her two dreams must be good dreams.

The dream of Ba Yongqiu, which was related to the birth of his son, was mythologized.

Therefore, the local people call the fertile field formed by the flood alluvial water gushing out of the ground in the territory of Wanfeng Village as "Dragon Dam", or "Dragon Dam", there are upper, middle and lower three dams, and the mouth of the pond that comes out of the water is called "Dragon Pond".

Many years later, Longtang dried up, a new outlet pond mouth appeared nearby, and a new myth was deduced, called "Dream Chongtang", and the original Longtang mouth was called "Old Longtangβ€”β€”β€”", which is a later story.

That night, after the love of Hu Anbo and his wife, talking about what happened during the day, Mrs. took the opportunity to persuade her husband to strictly discipline a pair of children and treat all children and tribes well, and told her husband a story he heard from his father, saying that Ji Liang, the doctor of Suiguo, said to Suimu Hou that "Chu is big, Suiguo is small, and if a small country wants to resist a big country, it can only rely on Youdao."

Ba Yongqiu began to reflect on the fact that his method of educating his children might be inappropriate, and proposed that his son learn culture from Yu Chang, the only literary and historical official in Hu'an Palace, and Uncle Yu nodded yes.

Intentions are good, but things are not imagined.

On the second day, when he heard that he was going to study, he shouted: "A mountain man wants me to go to study alone!

Uncle Yu came to see Yu Chang, and Menglong asked at the first point: "Did Master Yu teach me the art of war?"

"The old man knows a few books and doesn't understand the art of war. ”

Menglong said disdainfully: "Then there is no reason to study!"

Yu Chang said: "Over the past dynasties, it is not the strong martial arts who have won, but the strong people who have won the civil governance, the Yellow Emperor has conquered Chiyou, Yao Shunyu has conquered Li and Miao, and King Wen of Zhou has planned to cut down the Emperor, all of which are based on this principle. The Ba people are not eager to learn, how can they defeat the people of Chu?"

Yu Menglong couldn't help but pointed at Yu Chang and said angrily: "How can this be reasonable! You dare to grow the ambition of the Chu people and destroy the prestige of the Ba people! Don't look at your age, get out of here now!"

Uncle Yu hurriedly stopped, apologized to Yu Chang, and ordered Menglong to take the blame.

Yu Menglong reluctantly admitted his mistake, but no matter how Yu Chang explained, he really didn't read if he was killed.

Uncle Yu smiled and said to Yu Chang: "Actually, I haven't understood the use of reading yet. ”

Yu Chang had no choice but to laugh with him, so he gave up.
