Volume 1 - The Beginning of Mind Cultivation Chapter 19 The First Acquaintance with the Old Things in the Capital

Descending the Toriku Plateau, it is bordered by a huge county town.

With a bandage on his body and a cane made of old wooden branches in his hand, he looked at the huge city wall and the majestic Wangdongdu. A sense of majesty rose in Bu Fanchen's heart, this is the largest county town he has seen since he went to sea, its wall is 100 meters high, the wall is inexhaustible, and the bustling crowd entering the city gives him a sense of intimacy of fireworks in the world. Different from the small bustle of the ferry town into the sea, it is inevitable that it will be small in the middle of the sea of people in the big environment.

Bu Youkong knocked a big chestnut on the stunned Bu Fanchen behind him, and said with a smile: "Xiao Fanchen! What's the matter, your hometown is still very interesting, the Wangdong City in front of you is just a part of your Lao Tzu Nuo's property, hehe, living on a "barren" island for so many years, and suddenly finding that he is a rich second generation, let's say it's not happy." ”

"Dad, we're all over one meter and a half, why do you keep knocking chestnuts? Could it be that I am not my own child?" Bu Fanchen rubbed his head with a slight pain, paused, rolled his eyes, and said helplessly: "I'm not a rare rich second generation, don't think I don't know, it's the family business given by the ancestors, you don't know how many generations you have been rich, and you will put gold on your face." ”

Bu Youkong was silent, staring at Bu Fanchen tightly, that means that you respect your father, I don't have a light or heavy hand, your mother is not here, then I am not a mountain king-like existence, hurry up and pat the horse, coax you Lao Tzu.

Bu Fanchen sighed deeply, it was really unfortunate for the family to have such an unreliable father. I had no choice but to say sincerely: Dad, let's not make trouble, hurry up and take me to meet your family business, and let your son really feel it. Seeing is believing, so that I can worship you from the bottom of my heart."

"Haha, sure enough, it's my son who walks in the sky, and it's strong! Walking forward, he said with a hearty smile.

Bu Fanchen's eyes were slightly helpless, since he returned to the southern country, his father didn't know how to drop, what was the big leakage of nature? Anyway, he was about to get used to it.

Glancing at the giant city, with a look of longing in his eyes, he limped forward following in his father's footsteps.

When entering the city, most of the rest of the people who entered the city had a piece of paper with a red seal in their hands, and after checking it for the city guards, they could enter. And Bu Fanchen saw that Bu Youkong just took out a black token, and the city guard hurriedly asked Bu Youkong to enter the city with a sincere face, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

In the city, a cyan stone road that can accommodate thirty carriages at the same time, lying quietly in the middle of the luxury buildings, perhaps the reason for the number of buildings, the sight of the city is not wide, there are red lanterns with a diameter of half a meter, hanging on the upper floor more than ten meters high, and some riches and children in bright clothes upstairs are teasing each other. This bluestone street does not have the small portable vendors in the town, selling some small items and snacks, and there are large shops with pleasant decorations everywhere you look, and you can tell that the consumption inside is very high just by looking at its appearance.

Bu Youkong told Bu Fanchen that the black token was an order of the southern kingdom, which was engraved with the unique seal of the southern country, and the holder of the order could travel freely in various cities in the southern country, but if you want to make this order, unless you have a strong family relationship or have made too much contribution to the southern country, people who have made great contributions can have it. There is also a kind of blue-brown token, which is one level lower than the black token, called the pass, which can also be passed in various cities, but in special periods, it is not as easy to use as if you don't ask the order, you can buy it if you have money, and you will generally resell remote business. The last one is the bosom paper I just saw, which can be signed and sealed by the local government and handled for free.

Instead of taking Bu Fanchen to those luxurious shops to hang out, he walked through the end of the bluestone road and came to the city lord's mansion in the south of the city.

It is a ten-mile-long mansion, the whole mansion has a total of four doors, there is a pair of two-meter-high stone lions outside the door, Bu Youkong tells Bu Fanchen, that is a thing to ward off evil spirits, of course, it is a custom left in the past, and the descendants put one, that is, it highlights the identity and the meaning of inheritance.

The place where Bu Fanchen and the two of them went was the east gate of the City Lord's Mansion. Outside the gate of the City Lord's Mansion of Nuoda, there was only one young man guarding it.

Unlike the family in the book, who has to stand outside the door all day long, guarding the door without slackening, the young man sits in a small pavilion outside the door. In front of him there was a square table with an account book, and those who entered and exited the city lord's mansion needed to present their tokens and register here, of course, acquaintances said otherwise. If someone wants to be unreasonable, then you have to ask him if the combat power of the innate martial artist agrees, as for the unreasonable person, how he cultivates, how his family background is, according to the meaning of the city lord, if he is not cultivated enough, he is beaten to death, then the city lord's mansion will support the family on his behalf, provided that after revenge, the entire city lord's mansion is still there. Otherwise, the whole house will die, and raise a yarn.

Bu Youkong saw the young man, knew that he was the person on duty today, of course he also knew the rules here, pretended not to see, and walked straight to the door. He hasn't come back for thirty years, and he wants to see if time flies and whether things are wrong.

The young man frowned slightly, looking like a noble step, and his behavior at the moment was somewhat rude. After carefully recalling and making sure that this was not a regular guest of the City Lord's Mansion, the young man reminded with a warm face: "This gentleman, you need to register to enter the City Lord's Mansion, please go through the process,"

Bu Youkong still pretended not to hear, and still walked his own way, Bu Fanchen behind him felt slightly embarrassed, he thought that the young man knew Bu Youkong, and his father just said that this was his own family business, this was a slap in the face?

Seeing that the step in the dark sky was still not ready to stop, the young man's face was slightly gloomy, not because the other party was ignoring him, but because the other party was stepping on the line set by the city lord. Ignoring him can, he is a family member, because of the heroism and open-mindedness of the city lord, he can not be treated like a slave without sovereignty in the city lord's mansion, and he can also get the protection and help of the city lord's mansion out of thin air, which is enough to comfort his heart. In his heart, his personal dignity is compared with the rules of the City Lord's Mansion, which is tantamount to the light of a grain of rice, but if someone dares to trample on the dignity of the Yellow City Lord, even if he is just a family member, he will let you try mosquitoes and hurt you.

Jia Ding hid his anger in his heart, and said in a loud voice that was still kind on the surface: "This gentleman, you need to register to enter the City Lord's Mansion, please go through the process and show your documents, please don't embarrass us ordinary guys." After speaking, he stared at Bu Youkong tightly, if the other party still didn't stop, then he would say it again, but everything has a degree, nothing more than three, and three will be difficult.

Bu Youkong turned his back to the faces of the young man and Bu Fanchen, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he still didn't respond.

Bu Fanchen almost threw away the crutches in his hand helplessly, the young man was so reasonable, and he was not arrogant, we couldn't be rude, and hurriedly shouted: "Father, we need to register, don't rush in first." ”

"Oh, you have to register, haha, say it early, say it early, some have it. Hearing Bu Fanchen's words, Bu Youkong seemed to suddenly realize. Smiled and turned around and walked to the young man's table, and said, "Haha, I'm sorry, little brother, I didn't know you were talking to me," then he took out the order and said that he and the city lord were friends who had not seen each other for many years, and left the name of a second brother.

After finishing the log, the young man bent down and said respectfully, "I was so offended to Mr. just now, the little one will definitely go to get ten boards later, and I hope Mr. won't be angry." After speaking, he made a gesture of please.

Bu Youkong noticed the young man's clenched fists, relaxed the moment he turned around, accumulating anger but no hatred, not burying evil consequences for the City Lord's Mansion, and having a good personality. When I saw that I didn't ask for the order, I was not angry, and I was very respectful to myself, but from beginning to end, except for what I should say and apologize, there was no flattering word, and the atmosphere was positive and very good. In the face of his own unreasonableness, let go of personal honor and disgrace, but always adhere to the rules of the City Lord's Mansion, which is excellent.

Leading Bu Fanchen, Bu Youkong smiled happily: "I haven't seen you for so many years, your Uncle Huang is still the same Huang Jingjing as before, haha"

To know the nature of the master, you can guess eight points from the wind of the door. There is this family in the door, why not worry, the family has this city lord, how can he not fall in love?

When he was on the bluestone road, his father mentioned the destination of this trip to Bu Fanchen, looking at the eastern capital, the city lord's mansion, and his fourth uncle Huang Jing's family.

Two hundred years ago in the southern country, there was a disciple of a general, when he was studying, he was returned by his uncle and fooled every day, but he was really fooled and stopped studying, and went directly to the border to join the army. The problem is that person is the only one in the Jiangmen Huang family who has not studied from Rong, and for the Huang family, it is worth being happy to have a child who can study, even if he doesn't want any fame. Besides, there is no literary name, and the martial arts of their Huang family have been thousands of years, is it possible that they have received less?

You must know that their Huang family's ancestral training is that as long as there is still a breath on the battlefield, even if they break their bones, they will make the enemy hurt one more point. Moreover, every descendant of the Huang family who joined the army, regardless of their children, most of them are like their ancestors, and they rarely spare their lives on the battlefield, so their military exploits have never been attenuated on the monument of military achievements. It is precisely because of this that Mingwei of the House of the God of War in the South has always been well guarded by them.

The family has been martial arts for thousands of years, and their martial arts are excellent, so in terms of literature, it can only be said that there is almost no way to take it. It's not that there are no civil officials in the officialdom, after all, everyone understands the truth that civil and military families are not the same. The problem is that the Huang family has never had the luxury of asking for it, and they will not allow their children and grandchildren to cross the line and become civil officials, but there is someone who can reason with others. Every time I quarrel with someone, I always feel that the reason is not enough, and the words are not enough, so I always say that I can't win, and in the end, I will directly scold each time, and then if the other party still doesn't stop talking, I will fight directly. Lose money for injuries, pay for death, pay for death, lose your life, and never be afraid.

Having said that, the generals of the Huang family still hope that there is a person in the family who likes to read, and when they quarrel, they can sit quietly in the back and say calmly: "Boy, come out and give this crepe thing, be reasonable, it's okay, you can talk about it vigorously, just say, the swords in the hands of our elders will cheer you up at any time."

Say win, it's naturally the best, it's okay to say if you don't win, go home and continue to study, Lao Tzu will come to meet these clever things, to see if their mouths and bones are hard, or this bowl of big fists is more real. ”

Then Huang Jing's father Huang Chenglong appeared, he was completely different from other siblings after he was born, he didn't like to dance knives and guns, and preferred to read and write. It is said that at that time, an old generation of the Huang family who was about to enter the earth, after hearing the news, he simply returned to the light and lived for three more years. Then everyone hurriedly changed him to a more literary name, of course, the name taken by a group of generals, you don't have to think about it.

So Huang Chenglong changed to Huang Reading, which caused a lot of craze in the capital at that time. This achievement is indeed a bit confused, the first two words are changed positions, and it is not embarrassing to say that it is embarrassing.

Huang Shuxue also did live up to expectations, in addition to not fighting for fame, his literary level has always been among the top few people of the same generation, at the age of seven he can write his own poems, at the age of nine he can write prose, at the age of ten he can discuss with the old master, and then travel around the southern country, write a lot of beautiful poems and articles, and at the age of fourteen can be able to speak and fight the Confucianism.

For the Huang family, it was an exciting fourteen years, the older generation fought on the battlefield, and spared no effort.

However, there are unforeseen circumstances, and when Huang was fourteen years old, he met the uncle who walked in the empty space - Bu Huan Qian. The prince of the royal family, who didn't dare to walk through the door every time he went to the Huang family, of course he knew him for a long time, but the wonderful story happened after Huang read the book for fourteen.

Because of the difference in Huang's reading, his own sister, that is, Bu Youkong's aunt Bu Jiamin, fell in love with the young man who was as knowledgeable as the sea early. After Bu Huanqian knew, he began to deliberately approach Huang Reading when he was eleven years old, one was the direct line of the royal family whose imperial power had been settled and would not participate in the royal internal strife, and the other was a kind of general study, which was naturally easy to walk together, and it was not weak to say that Bu Xuanxuan was not weak, in order to get close to Huang Reading, he himself went to pretend to study hard. Although he is not as strong as Huang Reading, he is also a talented player, and his status in the literary world is only one grade lower than Huang Reading.

Originally, Huang Reading and Prince Bu Qianbu, who was also a scholar, were together, and the Huang family was extremely happy. As a result, at the age of fourteen, seeing that the little sister was becoming more and more slim, but she was born to like martial arts and not literature, and Bu Huanqian knew that the plan of boiling frogs in warm water would not work. simply showed his claws, and first persuaded Huang to study and study in various countries, saying that he couldn't be the frog at the bottom of the well, and the reader wanted to enjoy the mountains and rivers. Huang Yuxue also felt reasonable, and then out of safety considerations, Bu also sneaked into the nature and brought the bodyguard Bu Jiamin with him, and in this way, the trio left for three years.

Bu Huanqian originally just planned to let the two of them fall in love for a long time, and it would be better to cook raw rice outside, but I didn't think that the three of them were in Qin State, and they encountered a bandit intercepted by a bandit pretended to be by a certain prince of the Qin Kingdom, Huang Chengshu, who has always been not interested in cultivating martial arts, because he did not have a little cultivation, during which he was injured several times, and there were several times if it wasn't for the many treasures that Bu Huanqian bringed, he didn't want to smash the money into the group of bandits who seemed to be disorganized, but the attack was extremely tacit, and everyone couldn't tell where they were.

After escaping from death, the relationship between Huang Yuxue and Bu Jiamin was indestructible, but the concession was unexpected. Huang was listless for half a month when he was reading, and he was still worried about whether Huang was stupid at the beginning. It wasn't until later that Huang Yuxue tore up the painstaking efforts of the two-year study tour, and realized that "it is not useless to be a scholar, but a scholar of my generation, to talk about his own truth, not to rely on others, only the strength and knowledge are synchronized, and the people of my generation have the qualifications to reason with this heaven and earth. ”

Looking at Huang Reading's resolute gaze, Bu Huanqian knew that he couldn't persuade him, and knew the importance of Huang Reading to the Huang family, so he secretly sweated for himself, but for the sake of his sister's happiness, he let it go. As for Bu Jiamin, Huang Reading is the sun in her eyes, and everything depends on him.

After the three of them returned to the south, Huang Xuexue explained the situation and his own choice to the elders in the family, and everyone in the Huang family naturally disagreed, and tried hard to persuade him, but in any case, everyone failed to change Huang Reading's opinion, for the only kind of reading in the family, he is so sensible and reasonable, in the Huang family, where everyone is heroic, who wants to really punish him?

After the exhortation was fruitless, the atmosphere of the Huang family became gloomy for a while, and individual Huang family members who were still old and still vigorous were ready to give up their identity as southerners and go to Qin State alone. It's just that the Bu family didn't agree, and the emperor at that time, that is, Bu Youkong's grandfather, chased the underworld. just said angrily: "What, are you in such a hurry to find death?" After reprimanding the old general of the Huang family, when he was chasing the second day of the court meeting, he only said one sentence to a group of civil and military generals, that is: Within three days, come up with a complete plan to smash the Qin State.

When the Son of Heaven is angry, he will definitely be a river of blood, not to mention the southern kingdom that protects his own people and ministers so much, not to mention the southern kingdom that has been guarding the border between humans and demons for 30,000 years.

Do you Qin Guo think that if you only keep one southern country to study, and if you don't kill the royal blood relatives, there will be no big deal? If you want to try, then let you see the attitude of my southern country.

For the Huang family, the only thing that can be happy is that Bu Jiamin, the proud daughter of the south country, married into the Huang family, and his aunt is also Huang Jingdan's mother, so he is his second brother.
