Chapter Thirty-Six: The Fisherman, the Young Master, and the Bookkeeper
The Great Zhou Dynasty governed hundreds of countries, and there were countless mountains, rivers, mountains and valleys. Two years ago, the Thirteen Princes were defeated in the battle with the current prince to seize the heir, and the Tianchen Army under his command, which had made great achievements in the war, and shook the continent, was disbanded.
Most of the soldiers of the Tianchen Army were absorbed by the Zhenhai Mufu and were still fighting outside the front line, and the rest of the personnel, except for those who returned to the imperial court, were all on the wanted list of the Great Zhou Imperial Court, and were pursued by the Criminal Law Palace, one of the six halls.
Even if it is a small soldier with the lowest rank in the Tianchen Army, after being pursued and killed by the Criminal Law Palace, he will make a big publicity, publicizing his iron-blooded methods and abilities. From these aspects, it can also be seen what kind of iron-blooded army the Tianchen Army was back then.
In the past two years, the remaining officers and soldiers of the Tianchen Army have been exiled to hundreds of countries, most of them have lived incognito, and have lived a "leisurely" life of seclusion and enjoyment in the countryside. However, since the tenth day of August, most of them have become active again.
In a remote fishing village in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, a middle-aged fisherman put down the fishing net he was weaving, waved goodbye to the old couple who had taken him in for more than a year, and supported the fishing boat down the river into the autumn water, upstream. The small fishing boat is shabby, but it is very conspicuous. Under the swift pole of the middle-aged fisherman, its speed even surpassed that of many hazy pupils and warships, and it rode in the dust.
......
In a village in the Qingshui Pavilion of the Southern Tang Dynasty, a thin bookkeeper disappeared, as unnoticed as when he appeared. This bookkeeper is a simple-looking scholar, fainted outside the winery two years ago, and was valued by the owner of the winery to do the bookkeeper, but he did not expect that he was meticulous in making accounts, and even found out a few bad debts, which made the owner of the winery quite important.
Also missing was the town's stocky butcher.
The bookkeeper is serious about his accounts, rarely talks, and rarely chats with the workers in the winery. But for some reason, he was particularly fond of going to town to have a drink with the stout butcher, and the two had a good conversation.
......
Furong Du, whose status in the Xiangchu Kingdom is one level higher than that of the royal palace, is the holy place left by the great sage Zeng Furong for the Zeng family 30,000 years ago. Although Zengfu is not as good as other families, Furong Du is one of the few holy places in the hearts of scholars who can stand side by side with Wuyi Lane and others.
Thirteen years ago, the young master of Zengfu learned from the world's scholars to travel around the world, which was admirable. It's a pity that I don't know if this young man didn't bring enough money or didn't have enough talent, and he didn't even get a little reputation back after ten years of wandering.
Three years ago, the young master of Zengfu returned to Zengfu, from a young boy in his prime, to a down-and-out middle-aged man.
A few days ago, the middle-aged man must have eaten the delicacies of the mountains and seas for more than two years, and remembered the coarse vegetables and light rice in the mountains and wilderness, so he left home alone and began to travel around the world again.
......
There is a small island with a radius of 100 zhang at the edge of the endless sea, which is called the Demon Fishing Island by the officers and soldiers of the pastoral government.
The first line of heaven is known as the forefront of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the fishing demon island is the most cutting-edge lookout of the first line of heaven.
There were more than a dozen soldiers stationed on the Demon Fishing Island, and their attire was no different from that of any officer in the town navy, except for the dagger at his waist.
The dagger is engraved with two small characters, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, strong and powerful.
Heavens!
On the night of August 13, the waves were loud, and hundreds of thousands of towns and navy were waiting to defend against the invasion of water demons.
On the second day, the soldiers at the very edge of the army heard the deafening sound of battle coming from the fishing demon island several miles away.
Zhenhai waited for 300 elite soldiers to take a battleship to support Diaoyu Demon Island, and when this group of soldiers arrived, they could only see the traces left by last night's battle.
The entire Demon Fishing Island was almost razed to the ground, and all the buildings on it were destroyed. It's just that no corpses and traces of any soldiers were found on the island, only a few large water demons, which stained the rocks of the fishing demon island red.
......
At the same time, the Great Zhou Hundred Kingdoms and even the Great Qin and Chu dynasties, scholars, horsemen, fishermen and butchers, bookkeepers, wealthy young masters, dock workers, rushed to the same place from all directions.
Fuliuguo, the southern capital!
Hundreds of rivers eventually return to the sea, and thousands of people go to the southern capital.
Zhang Yi stayed in the White Horse Academy for three days, drinking and chatting with Qiao Juzhengxia, Chengfeng, Mu Tiange, Su Zhizhi and others, telling about everything that happened after he left the White Horse Academy. Several people grabbed Zhang Yi and asked him to tell the story of what happened during this time.
For example, how he was suppressed and inspired before the government exam, and then he had an idea to make Zhenguo articles such as "Ai Lian Said". made Xia Chengfeng and the others sigh, and even Mu Tiange, who had always been arrogant and indifferent, couldn't help but stretch out his thumb.
When he said that he met the old man Zhuge in the Jianmen Mountain Range, and listened to him tell the legend of Wuzu and Zhuge Clan, the three of them were even more intoxicated. Mu Tiange Su Zhezhi's family background is extraordinary, and they have seen and heard a lot, they all vaguely heard the elders tell the story of the Zhuge clan, but they didn't expect it to be true, and they couldn't help but admire the ancestors of the Zhuge clan and the Li clan, and spit on such despicable villains as Wu Zu.
Zhang Yi and Qiao Juzheng told everything that happened in the ancestral land of the Li clan, and the three of them were fascinated by it, and their eyes widened in disbelief. Pig dragons, dragon wolves, these things, even they have never seen them.
Xia Chengfeng said excitedly: "If you really want to explore the ancestral land of the Li clan in the future, please be sure to tell the brother Li, I also want to enter the ancestral land to have a look." Even if you can't meet monsters such as the pig dragon and the dragon wolf, it is an extremely valuable opportunity to see the glazed palace and the industrial equipment in it. ”
Mu Tiange Su folded branches one after another.
Zhang Yi couldn't tell them that those Gongjia equipment were now in his atrium. If it really leaks out accidentally, I am afraid that the Li's family will not be at peace in the future.
Several people drank for two days, and then Lu Hongyi took Chen Chu to see Chen Wangqiu's two brothers and sisters to disturb them, and Zhang Yi and others welcomed them. However, the two women were not very interested in these strange things, but were full of interest in the cute little flying bear who called "Uncle Ben".
I heard that Xiaofei Xiong fell into the empty hands of Wu Ming, the remnant of the Wu clan, and is now in Tai'an City. Chen Chu saw the girl clenching her fist, and immediately sent a letter to her father, asking him to help catch Wen Yi Wu Mingkong.
It's a pity that the new Wen Xiang doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic about his children, and while he is obsessed with official business, he didn't reply to Chen Chujian's letter before Zhang Yi left the White Horse Academy.
On August 13, Zhang Yi did not say goodbye to any of his friends and quietly left White Horse Academy. Of course, the three days did not pass through, Zhang Yi replenished the lost essence and blood, and by the way, slightly suppressed the irritable red dragon, making it a little more docile to himself.
......
Zhang Yi stepped into Longbow City again, a slight rain fell in the sky, and the osmanthus trees in the city exuded a charming fragrance under the moisture of the rain. He held an oil-paper umbrella, stepped on the bluestone road, and slowly walked into Zhang's mansion.
PS: This chapter is actually not easy to write...... Well, it's written out anyway. By the way, I think the chapter name is very good!
