Chapter 1 The old slave of the horse, the fat boy quit his home and entered Shu (I)
In July, the scorching sun is scorching, and there are few pedestrians on the official road in Bashu.
At noon, a carriage slowly floated out from afar, ticking and ticking, walking on the official road.
The car is an ordinary car, but the horse is a rare high-headed horse in Shu, and the horse is very, even in Beiyan and Nanzhao, two places where the world gallops with iron horses, I am afraid it is difficult to find.
A horse is a good horse, but a man is not like a good man. A rickety old man, with mung bean eyes, hanging eyebrows, goatee, and a bitter gourd face. Sitting on the wheel at the moment, lethargic.
"Old Wei, how long will it take to arrive?" A weak voice came from the carriage, the voice was slightly immature, and he didn't think he was very old.
"It's coming, it's coming," replied the old man on the wheel, Lao Wei, without opening his eyes.
"Alas, Old Wei, you say, am I my father's own child?" asked the man in the carriage again.
"Young master, you've asked 80,000 times this way!"
"Well, then you say, am I my own child?"
"Eighty thousand and one times. Young master, forgive me for speaking straight. The entire palace, not only that, the entire Handan City, and the whole world don't believe that you are born by the prince. But the problem is, you're really!
The curtain of the car was slammed open from inside, and a hand reached out to pull Lao Wei's beard.
Before seeing anyone, I first saw a mountain of white flowers. It turned out to be an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, this young man is not tall, and his facial features can be regarded as sword eyebrows and starry eyes when he looks closely, but he is too fat. The big eyes were squeezed into squints by the flesh on the face, and Joan's nose turned into a collapsed nose. was supposed to be a beautiful boy, but he became a meat ball. The young man had a big belly, and at this moment, he was excited, his stomach trembled, and his flesh splashed everywhere. It should have been an angry face, but to the others, it was still full of joy. I can't help but want people to pinch their faces and poke their stomachs.
"Old Wei, how long will it take?" The fat boy who couldn't reach Lao Wei's beard after struggling for a long time sat down next to Lao Wei's head helplessly.
"It's coming, it's coming. In a few days, we will arrive at Shushan City, the largest city in Bashu, and the Bashu Sword Pavilion is just outside the city!" replied Lao Weitou.
"Bashu Sword Pavilion, Bashu Sword Pavilion ......" the young man muttered to himself, sighed, turned around and struggled into the carriage, and continued to sleep.
The sun is setting, and it is evening in the blink of an eye.
"Knock, knock," Old Wei knocked on the carriage and said, "Young master, there is a wine shop in front, let's go down and rest." ”
The fat boy woke up in a daze, his saliva dripping on his pillow.
The boy wiped his saliva and got out of the car slowly.
In front of it is a small wine shop, and a man who looks like a thin farmer is both a shopkeeper and a runner, selling some steamed buns, home-brewed shoddy wine and tea. The liquor shop has a large shed in the open space, and three or four tables are placed under the shed, which can relieve the heat in such a hot weather.
Although the liquor store is small, it is full of people at the moment. A group of caravan-looking people are resting here. A dozen or so men with big waists and round swords sat at the table talking and laughing, the carriage full of goods stopped on the side, and several shirtless men reclined beside the carriage and poured tea.
Seeing that someone was coming, the group of men stopped talking and laughing, and looked at it vigilantly. I found out that it was a fat boy and a lewd old man, but I didn't care.
"It's okay, Steward Liu, the two are in a hurry. You keep talking. A man poured a cup of tea for an old man in Tsing Yi beside him and said.
Steward Liu glanced at the old and the young, and found that there was no suspicion, picked up the teacup, took a sip of water, and said:
"Since King Wu conquered the world, the world has been unified, and the Great Zhou Dynasty has been calculated for more than 800 years. And since the princes of Zhou Youwang Fenghuo play, mediocre, and finally died tragically in the hands of the Dog Rong clan, the Zhou family has gradually declined. Today's Zhou Tianzi, although he has the name of the co-lord of the world, there is no longer the reality of the overlord. Only one Zhou city remained. And the princes of the world took advantage of the situation, and the seven kingdoms competed for hegemony, competing for the Central Plains, and the war was raging!"
"Steward Liu, isn't there only four kingdoms in this world?"
Steward Liu glanced at the man who interjected and said:
"Stupid. At that time, there were the seven kingdoms of Qin, Chu, Qiyan, Zhao, Wei, and Han, and the seven kingdoms fought one after another, and the wars were endless. Two hundred years ago, the Qin State was powerful, and the Qin king's power gradually appeared, and he had the potential to dominate the world. The other six countries trembled and unanimously faced Qin. ”
"At that time, there was an unknown sword cultivator named Jing Ke, who fought into the Xianyang Palace, and the army of ten thousand slashed Yingzheng from the sword, and died of exhaustion. The whole world was in an uproar! The six-nation alliance immediately broke down, and the sword soldiers rose again!"
"After decades of chaotic wars, the three kingdoms of Qin, Yan, and Qi divided Wei and Han, and Zhao destroyed Great Chu. The remnants of the Chu State fled into the 100,000 mountains of the Southern Wilderness, surviving for a long time. The war and peace between the four countries gradually stabilized over the past hundred years. Now, the southeast and northwest of the four countries, divided into four directions, the stars and the moon surround the middle of the Zhou Tianzi City, the southwest is my Bashu treasure land, and then the north is the North Desert Dog Rong, to the south is the 100,000 mountains, we merchants can be regarded as having a peaceful life!"
The fat boy listened interestingly, brought a pot of wine from the store, put the wine on the table, and said, "Everyone, meeting is fate." I'm going to sit here and listen, right?"
Everyone saw that the young man was rich and pleasant, and although he was young, he was quite proud in his speech and deeds, and they all beckoned the young man to sit down.
Old Wei smiled, ignored the familiar little master, picked up a pot of wine, and sat in the carriage to pour himself a drink.
"This Uncle Liu, I heard that this Jing Ke is a person from Bashu?" the young man asked curiously.
The steward surnamed Liu glanced at the young man and said, "You little baby is a little knowledgeable. It is said that he was an orphan since he was a child, living on the streets, and later because of fate, he entered the Shushan Sword Pavilion to cultivate swords. Later, after learning to go out of the mountain, this first and last battle beheaded the most powerful and powerful man in the world at that time, Qin Wang Yingzheng, who was known as the true dragon son of heaven!
The fat boy's eyes lit up and his blood boiled when he heard this, and he praised: "This Jing Ke is really the first warrior in ancient times!"
Steward Liu drank the wine and continued: "Kuang Gu may be like this, but it is not so absolute!"
"Oh, there are heroes and heroes today who can stand side by side?" a man asked, "Steward Liu, you have traveled all the time to the north and south, and you have a wide range of knowledge, so tell your brothers about it, so that they can also increase their knowledge." ”
"But there are still a few of them. Brothers, our business is going to Zhao State. In Handan City, the capital of Zhao State, there is such a person!" Speaking of this, the Zhao steward suddenly stopped and sold a pass.
The fat boy smiled slightly when he heard this, and he understood, but he didn't talk.
I only heard other men ask one after another, "Who is it?" Steward Liu, don't want to hang the appetite of the brothers!"
Steward Liu smiled and said: "Of course, this is the Dinghai Divine Needle of the Southern Zhao Dynasty, and Wang Linnuo, the mighty general who moved mountains and seas and sunk the ground!"
Everyone suddenly realized, everyone had an expression of "it should be so"!
The fat boy smiled sweeter when he heard this, and a stout man next to him answered: "I heard that this master is a murderer, and he has to eat human flesh and drink human blood every day!
"Fool! In troubled times, it is a crime to kill one person, and it is a crime to kill a hundred people. If you can kill tens of thousands of people, you should be the male of the heroes! What do you say about eating people's heads and drinking people's blood, that is, deceiving foolish husbands and foolish women in the mountains and wilderness. This Lin Nuo is a master of today's military Dao, his cultivation is amazing, and he is the general king of Zhao Guo who is above 10,000 people, and he doesn't eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, what kind of human flesh do you eat!" Steward Liu glanced at the man who spoke, and scolded a few words with a smile.
Everyone was in a hurry, and the embarrassed man couldn't help but touch his head.
The fat young master also laughed, poured a glass of wine for Steward Liu, and asked, "Steward Liu, then tell me how heroic this Lin Nuo is?"
Steward Liu nodded and continued: "This great general, Wang Linnuo, whose real surname is Zhao, is the younger brother of Zhao Gan, the current king of Zhao! The eldest prince Zhao Qian was born to the queen, and the second prince Zhao Nuo was born to the palace maid Lin. ”
"Zhao Nuo has been unruly since he was a child, and his courage is abnormal, and he has devoted himself to the military since he was a child, practicing the way of soldiers. When he was only weak, he built his own ironclad bloody cavalry army and fought in four places, without tasting a defeat. It is the pillar of Zhao Guoqingtian, the demon king of the mixed world!"
Later, Lao Wang died of illness, and Zhao Qian ascended the throne. But the hearts of the people are all looking forward to this Zhao Nuo! Everyone in the world thinks that this Zhao Nuo will take advantage of the situation to make trouble and win the throne! The dark tide of Handan City is surging, the people's hearts are panicked, and the wind and rain are shaking! Western Qin seized the opportunity to unite with the remnants of the Chu State in the Southern Wilderness to capture 12 cities on the border of Zhao and slaughter one city. ”
"On the occasion of internal and external troubles, according to legend, this Zhao Nuo wore iron armor, went to court with a sword, knelt on the ground to respect his brother as the king, and invited himself to commemorate his mother Lin who died early, and changed his surname to Lin, in order to settle the heart of Zhao up and down. Then the battlefield was ordered. The 50,000 iron-clad blood cavalry army was exhausted, like 50,000 demon gods slaughtering into the territory of the Qin State, breaking more than 20 cities in more than a month, and slaughtering 12 cities. ”
"In the rain of blood, according to legend, this Lin Nuo laughed and said, 'Fly camp dog Gou also dares to speculate about Lao Tzu!, but he doesn't know that Lao Tzu is not rare at all, this supreme throne is not rare at all, and he only loves to kill people and set fires in his life!' Since then, Lin Nuo has been named the king of generals, sitting in Handan, and the state of Zhao is stable. Do you say that Lin Nuo, who was born in the emperor's family but discarded the throne like dross, is he a hero of the world?"
When the men heard this, they shouted "Good man!" and "What a hero!"
The fat boy was dazzled when he heard it, and he shouted with a look of adoration.
Compared with the legendary swordsman Jing Ke, Lin Nuo, who is still in Handan City, can obviously resonate more with this group of men who run the rivers and lakes!
"It's a pity......" Steward Liu took a sip of tea, shook his head, and changed his words.
The men were curious: "What is a pity? Steward Liu, don't be spitting!"
Steward Liu sighed and said, "This Lin Nuo became famous at a young age, ruled the world, was undefeated in his life, had a noble status, and his cultivation was amazing. This world-famous hero can be said to be unsurpassed in all aspects! It's a pity, but there is one thing, not even as good as you and me!"
"What? Steward Liu speaks quickly!"
But I don't know if there were too many people to kill, too much to kill, and Lin Nuo gave birth to a son at the age of forty. And this child was born with congenital deficiencies and was dying. Lin Wangfu's natural treasures were exhausted, and he barely survived. Later, when this child grew up, he heard that he was getting fatter and fatter, stupid as a pig, and a fool who could not achieve anything! This great general, Wang I, was a hero, but his only son was a fool and a waste! His enemies were really celebrating each other, and for a time the Qinglou Distillery in the Four Kingdoms really had a lot of business. ”
A group of men also sighed, lamenting that there was no successor to such a hero of the world.
One of the young men joked: "Maybe I entered Handan City, this old prince has taken a fancy to me and accepted me as his godson! Let me inherit the Lin Wangfu, haha, that old man is already developed!" Everyone laughed when they heard this, and scolded together: "Dreaming." If you want to collect it, you will also collect it!haha......"
Everyone laughed happily, but they didn't know that the fat boy who was smiling like a flower just now had a sudden stiff expression and his face sank. The obscene old man sitting on the wheel, Weimi's eyes suddenly opened!
Steward Liu noticed that the fat boy's expression was wrong, and asked strangely: "This little brother, are you okay, but you have heat stroke?"
The fat boy shook his head, his face darkened, but he didn't answer.
"But I don't know where the little brother is coming from and where is he going?" asked Steward Liu.
"From Handan City, I'm going to Shushan City!" replied the fat boy, his tone a little strange.
Steward Liu became curious: "Liu often travels back and forth between Handan and Shushan City, but he has also met many friends in Handan. Look at the little brother is also from a big family. I don't know the surname of the little brother, maybe I can still get in touch?"
"Hehe, I'm surnamed Lin!" replied the boy through gritted teeth.
Steward Liu, who was from Handan City and surnamed Lin, was suddenly startled, but he didn't know what the fat boy was saying, so frightened that he almost fell under the table.
"My surname is Lin, of course my father is also surnamed Lin, my uncle, it's strange, but it's a ...... surnamed Zhao" The fat boy said with a cold face.
