Chapter 593: The Five Beast Emperor Examination Array and the Four Beast Heaven and Earth Array
Before the five senior brothers knew that the opponent was the nine-tailed demon fox Yuzao, they all raised their nerves to their throats. Everyone summed up, how to deal with this monster, such a monster almost destroyed Japan before. If she really comes over and fights with all of us, none of us will be her opponents, this time it will be a tough battle, if there is a slight possibility of victory, I will fight for it, but I am afraid that our efforts will be in vain.
After thinking about it, we decided to use the power of the Five Divine Beasts in advance to set up the strongest Five Beast Emperor Examination Formation of my Daoist family.
To say that the conditions for the launch of the Five Beast Emperor's examination array are extremely harsh, it is necessary to awaken all the statues of the five divine beasts, and then pour in the blood of the five Five Elements Dao people with advanced spiritual power and Dao methods, so that people and gods can be unified. This is just the condition for activating the Five Beast Emperor Examination Array, and if we want to truly exert the power of the Five Beast Emperor Examination Array, we still need the cultivation of the five of us to be at a higher level.
If what Kamakura said is true, then the final power should be the mysterious man who saved Kamakura, he is the miscellaneous thoughts and evil thoughts of the five of our senior brothers, and when we really absorb them and suppress the evil thoughts, we can be regarded as the real self, and after obtaining complete power, we can truly control the power of the Five Beast Emperor Examination Array.
Now, forcibly using and driving the Five Beast Emperor Examination Formation is tantamount to boosting the seedlings, and our ability has not yet been reached, so we have to forcibly drive such a powerful formation, just afraid that it will backfire on our own strength. But now, there is no way, in order to save Su Madness's life, we can only try to forcibly drive this very dangerous formation.
The principle of the Five Beast Emperor Examination Array is to put the five divine beasts in the southeast, northwest, and northwest in a good position, and the strongest people of the five elements of our five Taoists will drive the divine beasts to manifest and exert their powerful power to deal with monsters. In the final analysis, the strength of the five of us is not enough, summon the five divine beasts, and when the time comes, the power of the human plus the power of the divine beast will defeat Yuzao.
However, all this is only in the theoretical stage, and has not yet been implemented, and we are completely chasing ducks to the shelves, the first time. Before, the enchantress Tamamo had made a big fuss in Japan, and the alliance between the Japanese army, exorcists and monks was brought to a ruin, but the side also showed how powerful Tamamo was. Although, this time, the strength of Tamamo is much inferior to before, and this can't be underestimated by her. If we're not careful, we're all done.
Even Abe Harumi, the former No. 1 onmyoji in Japan, was helpless in front of Tamamo, and Tamamo also admired Abe Harumi, a handsome and talented onmyoji, so they reconciled.
We are not Abe Harumi, Tamamo once ate Su Crazy in his previous life and strengthened his personal strength, and now, she will not let go of Su Crazy in this life. No matter how you say it, Su Crazy is also a big tonic, and there were grievances in the previous life, so we can only go on it.
So, everyone started to act, and I began to tell them about the attributes and taboo knowledge of the five divine beasts, in order to get along with the divine beasts as soon as possible.
However, the five of us took turns to test the Five Beast Emperor Examination Formation, but we couldn't succeed, although Xu Chengcheng, Li Huhu, and Geng Biaobiao and I were barely able to communicate with Qinglong, Xuanwu, Vermilion Bird, and White Tiger. Su is crazy but he can't do anything, this can't be blamed on him, the reason is that Su crazy's injury has not healed, and his vitality has not yet recovered. The other four of us are also in the best condition, and they can barely have synesthesia with the divine beast, not to mention that Su is crazy with injuries, and now we can't embarrass him.
Seeing that our cooperation could not work, and the divine beast Qilin was still unable to build a good synaesthesia, Long Tian was anxious and asked us if there was any other way to fight against Yuzao.
Everyone looked at each other, helpless, but I sighed and said, "There is another way, but the power is greatly reduced." However, the strength of Tamamo has also weakened a lot, and I only hope that the second method can withstand Tamamo Front. ”
Long Tian seized the opportunity to ask me: "Zhang Ruoxu, don't sell Guanzi, what method are you talking about?" ”
I sighed and said, "That's the secondary version of the Five Beast Emperor Examination Array, the Four Beast Heaven and Earth Array. In fact, the original five beasts were changed to the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu, the four divine beasts. It just so happens that Senior Brother is a disciple of the Earth Dao Method, and it is nothing without the Qilin, so let's come with the other four of us. ”
Su said apologetically: "I'm sorry, four junior brothers, I can't get up at a critical time, I'm really ashamed of my master, being this senior brother." In the future, it will depend on you, and this time I hope you will succeed. ”
After saying that, I let Long Tian help Su Crazy and leave.
It was the first time that the other three people had heard that there was a secondary formation in the Five Beast Emperor Examination Formation, so they clamored for me to explain it to them.
I, on the other hand, insisted on letting them know the four divine beasts first.
The four sacred beasts are the names of the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu by modern people, and they are actually not divine beasts, but gods, and are also called the four elephants and the four spirits of the sky in ancient times, which belong to the products of the ancient star worship. The four beasts are integrated into the five elements and directions, represented by different colors: wood in the east, gold in the west, fire in the south, black in the north, and earth in the center.
The green dragon originated from the worship of the ancient stars. In ancient China, the stars in the sky were divided into seven star regions: "Three Walls" and "Four Elephants". "Sanyuan" is "Ziweiyuan", symbolizing the imperial palace; "Taiweiyuan" symbolizes the administrative body; "Tenshigai" symbolizes a bustling market. These three walls are arranged in a triangular pattern around the North Star. That is, the stars in the east are like a dragon. Since the earth revolves around the sun, the stars in the sky also change with the seasons. Every evening at the turn of winter and spring, the dragon appears. The dragon is the seven Nakshatras of the East - Horn, Kang, Di, Fang, Heart, Tail, and Kei, and the shape of these Seven Nakshatras is very similar to the shape of a dragon
The white tiger, also the god of war and killing, originated from the worship of the ancient stars. The white tiger has a variety of divine powers such as warding off evil spirits, fighting disasters, praying for abundance, punishing evil and promoting good, getting rich, and tying the knot. It is one of the four spirits, and of course it is also made of the stars. It is composed of the seven Nakshatras in the west among the 28 constellations: Kui, Lou, Stomach, Pleiades, Bi, Mi, and Shen. Therefore, it is the representative of the West, and its whiteness is because the West is golden in the five elements, and the color is white. So white is said from the five elements. At the same time, the white tiger has a variety of divine powers such as avoiding evil, fighting disasters, praying for abundance and punishing evil, promoting goodness, getting rich, and tying the knot. And it is one of the four spirits, and of course it is also made of the stars. Because the White Tiger is the god of war, there are many fierce generals who are said to be the reincarnation of the White Tiger Star, such as: Tang Dynasty general Luo Cheng, Xue Rengui father and son, etc.
The Vermilion Bird, one of the four elephants in traditional Chinese culture and one of the four sacred beasts, originated from the ancient star worship. It is a sacred beast that represents the south, the color it represents is red, and the season it represents is summer. Like the other three, it comes from the Nakshatras and is the general name of the seven Nakshatras in the south: Well, Ghost, Willow, Star, Zhang, Wing, and Zhen. Zhu is red, like fire, and the south belongs to fire, so it is called Vermilion Bird.
Xuanwu is a kind of spiritual creature composed of a turtle and a snake. The original meaning of Xuanwu is Xuanwu, and the ancient sounds of Wu and Shen are connected. Xuanwu is the same as the other three spirits, and Xuanwu has also been transformed from the twenty-eight stars in the world: fighting, bull, woman, void, danger, room, and wall. In the Han Dynasty, the Five Elements Doctrine began to rise, and its symbolic meaning was more than non-decant and winter.
If, when the five of us reach a certain level, the power of the five elements and the five elements can be combined with the five elements formation, we can form a sense with the five divine beasts, and we can definitely form the strongest power, as strong as the enemy demon is just scum.
However, in the current situation, Su Madness, who cultivated the Earth Law, was still in a bad state, and he couldn't take out the Five Beast Emperor Examination Array for trial. Now, we can only rely on the four of us.
After running in like this for a day, there is still no strong effect, so it can only be said that I have just done synaesthesia, which is a passing grade. Since the time has not yet come, we have to rest first and wait until the next day to try again.
However, I am still very confused and uncertain. Because the four divine beasts are not actually divine beasts, but gods, in ancient times, they were also called the four elephants and the four spirits of the sky, which belonged to the products of ancient star worship. The four beasts are integrated into the five elements and directions, represented by different colors: wood in the east, gold in the west, fire in the south, black in the north, and earth in the center.
There are "four elephants" distributed around the "three walls": "East Canglong, West White Tiger, South Vermilion Bird, and North Xuanwu".
That is, the astrological sign in the east is like a dragon, the astrological sign in the west is like a tiger, the astrological sign in the south is like a big bird, and the astrological sign in the north is like a turtle and a snake. Since the earth revolves around the sun, the stars in the sky also change with the seasons. Every evening at the turn of winter and spring, the dragon appears; At the turn of spring and summer, the Vermilion Bird rises; At the turn of summer and autumn, the white tiger shows its head; At the turn of autumn and winter, Xuanwu rose, and was collectively known as the "Four Great Divine Beasts".
If the four of us want to do a good job in this formation, then we have to master all the positions and connections of the twenty-eight sutras.
In addition to the four elephant sayings of the four songs, there are also six beasts, namely the green dragon, the vermilion bird, the Gou Chen, the Teng snake, the white tiger, and the Xuanwu, in addition to indicating the five elements and directions, but also reflecting the hexagram information.
By the way, will it be related to the five elements gossip and the six elephant directions, if I study and study again, maybe I can find out the key links and strengthening points of the Four Beasts Heaven and Earth Array! After all, everything is connected, there must be a breakthrough, and when I thought of this, I began to draw with paper again.
"Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, the direction of the five elements, mark the strongest point in the Bagua position." I was writing and dictating as I drew and wrote.
At night, Geng Biaobiao came to the door and said, "Fourth senior brother, you haven't rested so late!" It's been so long since I've studied the formation, it's not too early. ”
"Huang Sheng, I'm your senior brother, don't I know you yet? You have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, since you have come to me, there must be something, say, you have something to tell me. ”
"Yangsheng, do you remember that we were restrained by Etenmaru two days ago?"
"Of course I remember, how could I forget that we were all trapped in a cocoon and had a dream! Are you looking for me to interpret your dreams? ”
Geng Biaobiao nodded and said, "You have already helped Tiansheng and Xuansheng interpret their dreams, then you can also help me!" I'll tell you the dream in the cocoon, you can borrow it for me, it just so happens that this dream is also very similar to a paragraph in "Strange Tales from Liaozhai". Let me describe it to you! ”
"Okay, you can say it!"
Geng Biaobiao said patiently: "My dream is like this, I am a hunter hunting, I depend on my wife for my life, although the life is hard, but I am happy." My mother always calls me by my name, Shichiro. Later, I got into a life lawsuit, but fortunately, a wealthy family surnamed Wu settled it for me. Later, my mother asked me to repay others with my life. In the end, Wu Gongzi's family was killed and despaired, so I risked my life to avenge others. In the end, my head fell off, but I was still alive, and I didn't really die until I killed the enemies of the Wu Gongzi family. ”
After his expression is finished, I also know what is going on, isn't this the story of "Geng Biaobiao"!
However, I didn't tell him explicitly, I just told him, "Go, follow me to the Crystal Girl, and restore all your dreams, so that I can know the final result." ”
When she arrived at Yang Saifeng's house, it was a coincidence that she hadn't slept yet, but had just changed into pajamas and was ready to sleep. She was obviously pregnant with Liujia, but there was not even a man at home, and after asking her, she found out that she was pregnant out of wedlock. The man who had a relationship with her didn't want to be responsible for the child in Yang Saifeng's belly, so he lost contact and couldn't find it. Yang Saifeng was also dead-eyed, unwilling to kill the child, but chose to bear everything silently and give birth to the child.
It's really inconvenient for me to say anything? went straight to the point, let Yang Saifeng hypnotize Geng Biaobiao, and I continued to observe Geng Biaobiao's past life.
Now I completely figured out what was going on.
In the ancient northeast of China, there was a family surnamed Wu, and Wu Chengxiu liked to make friends, and the people he interacted with were well-known people.
One night, Wu Chengxiu had a dream, and he dreamed that an ancestor of his own family told him: "Your friends are all over the world, and they are all promiscuous. There is only one person who can share your troubles, so why don't you get acquainted? ”
Wu Chengxiu asked, "Who is he?" The man said, "Isn't that Tian Qilang?" ”
Actually, I knew in my heart that Tian Qilang was Geng Biaobiao, and I couldn't imagine that in the previous life of this humble and cute fat man, he turned out to be a chivalrous and courageous man who knew how to repay his kindness.
Wu Chengxiu woke up and felt very strange. The next morning, when he saw his friends, he asked who Tian Qilang was. Some of my friends know that Tian Qilang is Geng Biaobiao, but he is a hunter in the East Village, and Geng Biaobiao's hunting methods are very clever.
Wu Chengxiu respectfully visited Tian's house and knocked on the door with a horsewhip. A few moments later, a man came out, in his twenties, with a tiger's waist, wearing a beanie covered in oil, and black calf-nosed pants with many white patches.
The down-and-out image of my fifth junior brother makes me feel very cold, my life in my previous life was so poor, I ate and drank with revenge in this life, and now I have become a fat man of more than 200 pounds, which is also an irony......
He arched his eyebrows and asked where the guests were from.
Wu Chengxiu said his name, and pretended that he was uncomfortable on the road, so he wanted to borrow a house to rest for a while. He asked who Tian Shichiro was, and Shichiro replied, "I am." ”
Geng Biaobiao is really real, he is defenseless, and when he doesn't know the other party's origin, he just answers.
I have also read the Tian Qilang chapter in "Strange Tales from Liao Zhai", and I don't have a good impression of Wu Chengxiu, a gentleman from a rich family. In the final analysis, his friendship with Tian Qilang was not because he did not want to repay his kindness, but because he had a purpose. I hope that Tian Qilang can help him prevent disasters and resolve difficulties, thinking that Geng Biaobiao gave up his life for such a selfish person in his last life, he really feels unworthy for him.
My stupid junior brother didn't suspect it, but led Wu Chengxiu into the house.
Wu Chengxiu saw that there were several dilapidated houses in the courtyard, and the walls were supported by wooden forks. When I entered a hut, I saw some tiger skins and wolf skins hanging from the pillars, and there were no benches and chairs to sit on.
Geng Biaobiao, a Korean product, spread tiger skin on the spot instead of a seat, and Wu Chengxiu also talked to him, listening to his words very simple, he liked him very much, and immediately gave him some silver for him to live.
Geng Biaobiao, who is also a solid-eyed person, shirks and does not accept it, after all, it is useless! However, Wu Chengxiu couldn't stand it, and he gave it to him. Geng Biaobiao didn't pay attention for a while, so he took the silver and went to tell his mother.
After a while, he took it back and returned it to Wu Chengxiu, and resolutely refused to accept it. However, the selfish Wu Chengxiu forced it many times, and my junior brother Geng Biaobiao also made a mistake and still refused to accept it.
At this time, Tian's mother came in an old state and said very sternly: "The old man only has this one son, and I don't want him to serve the distinguished guests!" ”
Or Geng Biaobiao and his wife understand things, in other words, there is no free lunch in the world, and those who know the grace will definitely find an opportunity to repay it. Wu Chengxiu, a weasel who gives New Year's greetings to chickens, is uneasy and kind, but he still can't hide it, my junior brother's wife's sharp eyes, I finally understand now, why my junior brother is so solid-eyed, or a problem left over from my previous life. However, his mother is not an ordinary person, and her heart and eyes are twice as many as ordinary people!
Wu Chengxiu, who was deflated, retreated in shame and walked home unhappy and depressed.
On the way home, Wu Chengxiu thought about it repeatedly and didn't understand the meaning. The servant who happened to be in the back of the house heard what Tian's mother said, so he told him: "Tian Qilang's old mother means that he is just this one son, and he will have to support his old age." Now this lady is lonely, Tian Qilang is all of Mrs. Tian's all, that is, the only support, this old woman is very vigilant, always afraid that you will send silver taels for no reason, and you will harm her son in the future. After all, it's short-handed! ”
Wu Chengxiu then understood, but this was not the case, because Mrs. Tian's eyes were not ordinarily sharp and sharp.
At first, the younger brother Geng Biaobiao took the silver to inform his mother, and Tian's mother said: "I saw my son just now, with a bad texture on his face, and he will definitely suffer a miracle." Don't you hear: Those who are known to others should share their worries, and those who are favored by others should be anxious and difficult. The rich repay others with their wealth, and the poor repay others with righteousness. It's unlucky to get a generous gift from others for no reason, I'm afraid it's to make you repay with death. ”
To explain Mrs. Tian's words simply, that is: The kid surnamed Wu, there is a bad aura between his eyebrows, that is, Yintang is black, there will definitely be disasters in the future, and it is not a small disaster, it is the kind of disaster that the family is ruined. Who doesn't know that if you receive the benefits of others, you have to share the enmity of others, and if you receive the favor of others, you have to worry about the difficulties of others. It is the most direct way for a rich person to repay others with money, but a poor person can only repay with righteousness. It's not a good thing to get a great gift from someone else for no reason, and that son surnamed Wu may cause you to repay his kindness with your death in the future.
Mrs. Tian said conclusively, it is true, it may not be a good thing for others to give more money. No one's money is blown by the wind, and it is really possible to harm innocent people. Sadly, people nowadays take the benefits of others and don't know how to reciprocate, and there are fewer and fewer people like Geng Biaobiao who know how to repay their kindness.
Wu Chengxiu later heard these words from Geng Biaobiao's mouth, and deeply admired Tian's mother's virtuous ability, but he also admired me more and more for being a silly junior brother.
The next day, Wu Chengxiu set up a banquet to invite Geng Biaobiao, but he couldn't refuse. Wu Chengxiu went to Qilang's house and sat in the house to ask for wine. Geng Biaobiao couldn't refuse, so he could only pour wine for him in person, serve venison jerky, and give him a very good salute.
A day later, Wu Chengxiu invited him to thank him again, and Geng Biaobiao also felt that he couldn't hold his face in the face of the other party's enthusiasm several times, and forgot all about his mother's warning, which is why he came.
The two were intimate and very happy. Wu Chengxiu gave him silver again, and at this time Geng Biaobiao remembered his old mother's words, and he shirked it and didn't accept it. However, the cunning Wu Chengxiu was smarter, and under the pretext of buying his tiger skin, Geng Biaobiao thought it was a transaction, and it happened that his family was also short of money so he accepted it. Geng Biaobiao went home and looked at the tiger skin he had saved, and calculated it, but it was not worth Wu Chengxiu's silver, and he couldn't get cheap from others, so he wanted to hunt the tiger skin again and then give it to him.
But after three days in the mountains, he found nothing. I also met that my wife was sick and needed to take care of the medicine, and I didn't have time to go hunting again. Ten days later, his wife suddenly fell seriously ill and died. In order to take care of the sacrifices and funerals, the money he got back gradually ran out.
Geng Biaobiao was destined to injure Wu Chengxiu with his life, because the house leak happened to rain overnight, and everything needed money, so he changed Geng Biaobiao's original intention and hugged Wu Chengxiu, a rich man's thigh.
Wu Chengxiu personally came to mourn the funeral, and the etiquette was very rich.
After the funeral was handled, the silly Geng Biaobiao took a bow and arrow into the mountains and forests, and wanted to hunt a tiger to repay Wu Chengxiu, but in the end he found nothing. After Wu Chengxiu found out, he persuaded him not to be in a hurry, and earnestly hoped that Geng Biaobiao would come to visit him, but Geng Biaobiao always thought that he owed Wu Chengxiu a debt, felt regretful, and refused to come.
Wu Chengxiu first asked him for the tiger skin stored in the family as an excuse, so that Geng Biaobiao could come quickly. Geng Biaobiao looked at the tiger skin that had been stored before, it had been damaged by silverfish, and the hair on it had also fallen off, and his mood became more and more frustrated. Wu Chengxiu knew about it, rode to Shichiro's house, and tried his best to comfort and persuade him. Then he looked at the broken leather and said, "This is better, the leather I want is not hairless." So he rolled up his leather and took it out of the door, and invited him to go with him.
Geng Biaobiao didn't know that he himself was getting closer and closer to Wu Chengxiu's good trap, and the more benefits he received from Wu Chengxiu, the closer he was to death. This time, it reminded me again that the originally honest officials, with a petty corruption, became more and more unscrupulous without the East Window incident, knowing that they would pay the price of their lives.
Geng Biaobiao felt that these tiger skins really couldn't be handled, so he didn't agree, so Wu Chengti had to go home by himself.
Then, the dead-eyed Geng Biaobiao thought that this would not be enough to repay Wu Chengxiu after all, so he brought dry food into the mountain.
After a few nights of squatting, Geng Biaobiao finally hunted a tiger and gave it to Wu Chengxiu in its entirety.
Wu Chengxiu was overjoyed, bought a wine feast, and asked Geng Biaobiao to stay for three days. Geng Biaobiao was very resolute in his resignation, and always excused himself under the pretext of serving his mother.
The unreasonable Wu Chengxiu, afraid that he would pay off his property debts because of the tiger skin, so he asked his subordinates to lock the gate of the courtyard, so that Geng Biaobiao could not go out. Helpless, Geng Biaobiao had to agree to stay at the Wu family for a few days, during which he was also invited to a banquet together to get to know Wu Chengxiu's fox friends and dogs.
The guests saw that Shichiro was dressed in simple and simple clothes, and secretly said that Wu Gongzi made friends promiscuously.
And Wu Chengxiu took care of me, a junior brother, and was much more thoughtful than other guests. Moreover, he really listened to the words of the guests, and called his servants to bring back the new clothes.
He changed Geng Biaobiao's new clothes, but Geng Biaobiao didn't accept it, so he had to secretly change his clothes while Geng Biaobiao was sleeping, and Geng Biaobiao had no choice but to put them on.
I really understand that Wu Chengxiu's mind is to hatch out my stupid junior brother little by little and become a poor person who is willing to sacrifice for himself. If you really want to say that you have entered the Longtan Tiger's Den, it is not the most dangerous, but the most dangerous thing is the home arranged by sugar-coated shells like Wu Chengxiu.
After Geng Biaobiao returned home, his son followed his grandmother's instructions and sent back new clothes to the Wu family and asked for his father's torn clothes.
Wu Chengxiu understood in his heart, deliberately did not agree, and found an excuse and said with a smile: "Go back and tell your grandmother that the old clothes have been dismantled into shoe linings." ”
Since then, Geng Biaobiao has completely fallen into the trap, and he can't get rid of Wu Chengxiu, and he gives the hunted rabbits and deer to Wu Chengxiu every day, but when Wu Chengxiu invited him, he never went again.
At this time, Geng Biaobiao should have understood that the other party did not have a good heart, so that one day, he could use himself to prevent disasters for him.
Wu Chengxiu went to Geng Biaobiao's house one day, and met Geng Biaobiao who had gone out hunting and had not returned. Tian's mother came out, leaned against the door and said to him, "Please don't come to seduce my son again, it's a big ill-intention!" ”
At this time, Mrs. Tian had already begun to be rude to Wu Chengxiu, knowing that he was a disaster star, out of protection for her son, she tore off the old man's face and burst into foul language to the people who had helped her several times.
Actually, I understand the truth of loving my son for my mother, but my son's life has long been surnamed Wu.
Wu Chengxiu respectfully saluted Tian Mu and left in shame.
After more than half a year, his family suddenly told Wu Chengxiu: "Geng Biaobiao had a dispute with someone because of hunting leopards, beat people to death, and was arrested and sent to the official mansion." ”
He was shocked when he heard this, and rode on his horse and galloped to the official palace to visit, and at this moment Geng Biaobiao had been shackled and detained in prison.
Geng Biaobiao didn't say anything when he saw him, but said, "From now on, please trouble you to help my mother more." ”
I have to say that Geng Biaobiao, this kid, is a filial son, and he doesn't forget his old mother's life when he dies, and he can only beg Wu Chengxiu to take care of his old mother more.
This also shows that the current Geng Biaobiao has been trapped by fate, and what will greet him is future death. I had a sense of loneliness that I knew that my death was coming, but I was helpless.
Wu Chengxiu came out very miserably, and hurriedly took out a lot of silver to give to the county order, and gave another hundred taels of silver to the deceased's family. After more than a month, Geng Biaobiao was released and returned home.
Tian Mu said to Qilang with emotion: "Your life was given by Wu Gongzi, and it is no longer something I can regret." I hope that my son can live a safe and peaceful life, and it is a blessing for my son not to encounter disasters. ”
This sentence also shows that Mrs. Tian accepted her fate and knew that her son had closely linked his fate to Wu Chengxiu. The only thing he can do is to hope that Wu Chengxiu can have a blessed life and not fold his only son. However, all this was in vain, and Mrs. Tian finally couldn't avoid the tragic reality of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person.
Geng Biaobiao understood the helplessness of the old mother, but he was also embarrassed not to thank his life-saving benefactor, so he said that he wanted to thank Wu Chengxiu, Tian's mother said: "Just go, don't thank him when you see Wu Gongzi." You must know that small favors can be thanked, but big favors cannot be thanked. ”
Geng Biaobiao arrived at the Wu family, Wu Chengxiu comforted him with warm words, Geng Biaobiao just agreed respectfully, the family blamed Geng Biaobiao for being careless, but Wu Chengxiu liked him to be honest and treated him more and more.
Since then, Geng Biaobiao often stayed in the martial arts family for several days. Accept what you give him, no more excuses, and no more reciprocation.
Those who don't know think that Geng Biaobiao is greedy, and those who understand know that they are ready to die calmly, and they can take it with peace of mind.
It coincided with Wu Chengxiu's birthday, and there were a lot of guests and servants on this day, and the house was full of people at night. Wu Chengxiu slept in a small room with Geng Biaobiao, and the three servants lay down under the bed with straw. At the end of the second watch, the servants were asleep. The two of them were still talking. Shichiro's saber had been hanging on the wall, but suddenly he jumped out of its scabbard several inches, making a clanging sound, and the light flickered like electricity.
Wu Chengxiu was startled, Geng Biaobiao also got up, and asked, "Who are the people lying under the bed?" ”
Wu Chengxiu replied, "They are all servants. ”
Geng Biaobiao said: "There must be bad people among them. ”
Wu Chengxiu asked him what the reason was, and Geng Biaobiao said: "This knife was bought from abroad, and there is no trace of blood in the killing, and it has been worn by three generations." Thousands of heads were cut off with it, and they still looked like freshly polished. As soon as it encounters a bad guy, it screams and jumps out of its scabbard, and it is not far from killing people at this time. The prince should be close to the gentleman and alienate the villain, perhaps in case the disaster can be avoided. ”
Wu Chengxiu nodded in agreement, and at the same time understood in his heart that the day of his calamity was not far away.
Geng Biaobiao didn't know, so he was always sullen all day long, tossing and turning on the bed mat and couldn't sleep.
Wu Chengxiu said: "People's blessings and misfortunes are just fate, why worry so much?
Geng Biaobiao said: "I'm not afraid of anything, just because my mother is there." ”
Wu Chengxiu said: "How could it have come to such a point! ”
Geng Biaobiao said: "It's good if nothing happens." ”
It turned out that there were three people who fell asleep under the bed: one was named Lin Er, a servant who had always been favored, and was very favored by Wu Chengxiu; One is a servant, twelve or thirteen years old, who is called by Wu Chengxiu on a daily basis; One is named Li Ying, who is the most disobedient, so he stares and argues with his son because of trivial matters, and Wu Chengxiu is often angry with him.
That night, Wu Chengxiu thought in his heart, suspecting that this "bad guy" must be Li Ying.
In the morning, he called Li Ying to him and dismissed him with kind words.
Wu Chengxiu's eldest son, Wu Shen, married Wang. One day, Wu Chengxiu went out, leaving Lin Er at home to watch the door. At that time, the chrysanthemums in Wu's residence happened to be in bright bloom, and the new daughter-in-law thought that her father-in-law would go out and there would be no one in his yard, so she went to pick chrysanthemums by herself.
Lin Er suddenly came out of the house to seduce and tease her. Wang wanted to escape, but was forcibly forced into the house by Lin Er.
She shouted loudly in resistance, her face changed sharply, and her voice was hoarse. When Wu Shen heard that he ran in, Lin Er let go and fled. When Wu Chengxiu came back and heard about this, he angrily looked for Lin Er, but he didn't know where to flee.
After two or three days, I learned that he had defected to a certain imperial historian's house.
This imperial historian served in the capital, and the affairs of the family were entrusted to his younger brother.
Because Wu Chengxiu had a neighborhood friendship with him, he sent a letter to ask for Lin Er, but he ignored it. Wu Chengxiu became more and more resentful, so he sued the county order, although the official document for arresting the person was issued, but the official did not arrest him, and the county order did not ask.
When Wu Chengxiu was angry, Geng Biaobiao happened to come. Wu Chengxiu said: "What you said has come true. ”
So I told him what had happened.
Geng Biaobiao heard that his face had changed miserably, but he never spoke, and walked straight away.
Because, Geng Biaobiao knew in his heart that it was time to sacrifice his life to compensate the gentleman......
Wu Chengxiu instructed the able servants to find out Lin Er's whereabouts. When Lin Er returned home at night, he was captured by the servants who were searching for him and brought to his master. Wu Chengxiu tortured him, and he actually insulted his master. Wu Chengxiu's uncle, Wu Heng, was originally a very kind elder, and he was afraid that his nephew's anger would cause disaster, so he persuaded him to use official law to deal with Lin'er.
Wu Chengxiu obeyed his uncle's orders and tied Lin Er to the court, but the letter from the imperial historian was also sent to the county government. The county order released Lin Er and handed it over to Yushi's younger brother's housekeeper to take away.
In this way, Lin Er was even more presumptuous, and even threatened in the crowd, fabricating that the daughter-in-law of the Wu family had an affair with him. Wu Chengxiu had no way to take him, he filled his chest with resentment, and he was so angry that he died. Then he rode to the door of the imperial historian's house, pointing to the sky and scolding. The neighbors comforted him and persuaded him to return home.
After one night, a family member suddenly came to report: "Lin Er has been cut into pieces of flesh and thrown into the wild." ”
Wu Chengxiu was surprised and delighted when he heard this, and his mood was slightly relaxed.
After a while, he heard that the imperial historian had accused him and his uncle of murder, so he went to the court with his uncle to confront him. The county order did not allow them to justify, and they wanted to punish Wu Heng with a cane.
Wu Chengxiu said loudly: "Saying that we killed people is purely a false accusation!" As for insulting the official family, I did do it, but it has nothing to do with my uncle. ”
The prefectural order ignored what he said. Wu Chengxiu's eyes widened angrily and he wanted to rush forward, but the servants surrounded him and grabbed him. The servants who carried out the execution with sticks and sticks were all lackeys of the official eunuchs, and Wu Heng was old, and he was already angry before he reached half of the number of signatures. The county order saw that Wu Heng was dead, and he no longer pursued it.
Wu Chengxiu cried and scolded angrily, but the county order didn't seem to hear it. Wu Chengxiu then carried his uncle home. He was so grief-stricken that there was nothing he could do.
wanted to discuss it with Geng Biaobiao, but Geng Biaobiao never came to offer condolences. He secretly thought to himself: He treats Geng Biaobiao well, how can he be like a passer-by who doesn't know him? and then suspected that the person who killed Lin Er must be Geng Biaobiao. But on second thought, if that was the case, why didn't he come and consult with me beforehand? So he sent someone to Tian's house to investigate. When I went to take a look, the Tian family was locked and silent, and the neighbors didn't know where they were.
Wu Chengxiu said regretfully: "Tian Qilang, what a gracious and unrighteous person,"
One day, Yushi's younger brother was in the county ya's house, interceding with the county order. At that time, it was the time when the county government was bringing in firewood, grass and water in the morning, and suddenly a firewood collector came to him, put down the firewood and pulled out a quick knife, and came straight to them. Yushi's younger brother panicked and hurriedly used his hand to block the knife, and his wrist was cut off, and then his head was cut off with a knife. The county commander was shocked when he saw this, and ran away with his head in his arms.
The wood-gatherers were still looking around, and the officials hurriedly closed the door of the county office, picked up the sticks and shouted loudly. The wood-gatherer then killed himself with a knife. The servants came over to identify it, and those who knew knew it knew that the firewood man was Geng Biaobiao.
After the county magistrate was frightened, he calmed down, and then came out to re-examine the scene. Seeing Geng Biaobiao lying stiffly in a pool of blood, still holding the fast knife in his hand. The county magistrate was about to stop to take a closer look, when Geng Biaobiao's zombie suddenly jumped up, and actually cut off the head of the county magistrate, and then fell to the ground again.
Officials from the county government sent people to arrest Geng Biaobiao's mother and son, but the grandfather and grandson had been on the run for several days.
When Wu Chengxiu heard that Geng Biaobiao had died, he hurried to cry and express his grief.
The enemies all said that he instructed Geng Biaobiao to kill people, and Wu Chengxiu sold his property to bribe the people in power, so he was spared. Geng Biaobiao's body was dumped in the wilderness for more than 30 days, surrounded by many birds and dogs guarding him. Wu Chengxiu took Geng Biaobiao's body away and buried him.
Geng Biaobiao's son was exiled to Dengzhou at that time and changed his surname to Tong. Later, he became a soldier and was promoted to General Tongzhi because of his meritorious service. When he returned to Liaoyang, Wu Chengxiu was already in his eighties, so he led him to his father's grave.
I really sighed, sure enough, how right it is not to accept a penny of gifts easily. How virtuous my mother is! Geng Biaobiao and his people, resentment failed to finish the snow, and he still killed the county commander when he died, what a miracle!
In that case, I know what the problem is! Geng Biaobiao has always been taken care of by the senior brother, and this time the catastrophe of the senior brother, Senior Brother Huang Sheng will definitely be able to resolve it for him, but it may have cost us the fifth senior brother.
I hope that the fifth junior brother can fight again after death, maybe death is life!
