Chapter 22: The Sheep and the Crane (6)

The scribe ate for a while, then suddenly stood up and said to the blind man, "Hey, I said this singer, what are you babbling for a long time?"

The blind man stopped singing, stood up respectfully, and smiled, "The little man sings the local drum lyrics." What tune would the guest officer want to hear? ”

The scribe shook the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile: "I can't tell if the drum lyrics you sing are good or bad." Okay, all the people sitting here are good friends, I'll sing a little bit and drink for everyone, how about it?" Without waiting for the blind man to reply, he walked straight to the center of the venue, beat the beat with the folding fan in his hand, and opened his voice to sing aloud. He sang a drama about the new monarch's accession to the throne, but he also had a clear voice and a familiar singing voice.

When he finished singing, except for Mulberry Eagle and others who watched coldly, the remaining diners in the restaurant applauded. The scribe shook his head, his face was bright, and he looked very proud.

The blind man waited until the noise of the diners gradually stopped, coughed lightly, and said, "Although the guest officer sings this drama well, there is something inappropriate, I don't know if the villain should talk about it or not." ”

The scribe raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "Oh? ”

The blind man said: "The ancient name, 'Lin Feng Five Spirits, the King's Jia Ruiye.'" "The guest official sang about the new monarch's accession to the throne, since the new emperor was ordered by heaven, there must be an auspicious omen of double ears and sweet springs from the earth, why is there no Fu Rui for the new emperor sung by Your Excellency?"

The scribe smiled and said, "Why not? On the first day of the new king's accession to the throne, there was a star in the sky, gathered in the east well, isn't this an auspicious omen?"

The blind man shook his head slightly, and said: "Fei Ye, Fei Ye! When Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, ascended the throne, the five stars of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth were in a row, and the five stars were seen in Jingsu at the same time. This new monarch has just ascended to the great treasure, and only one star appears in the sky, how can it be called a 'gathering'?"

The scribe smiled and said: "You only know one of them, but you don't know the other, this new monarch's virtue is four stars less than that of Han Gaozu, and there is only one 'gold star' left." ”

The blind man slapped his head and said suddenly: "Jin Xing? It turns out that the new gentleman that the guest officer said is Liu Yu who is perverse and abusive!"

The scribe glanced at Mulberry Eagle and the others, laughed, and said, "Exactly, exactly! It is Liu Yu, the pseudo-emperor and the child emperor!"

When the vulture and the others heard this, their faces immediately changed, and they all glared angrily at the scribe and the blind man. Kuai Xuan and Tu Jiao couldn't hold it back, and they shook their fists and sleeves, showing their blades one after another. Tu Jiao's blade is an iron paddle weighing 38 catties, the whole body is black and swarthy, and it is very heavy; Tu Jiao is making a ghost head knife, the back is thick and the face is broad, the blood groove with open cloud pattern runs through the knife body, and there is a ghost head carved at the end of the handle of the knife, and the appearance is hideous and terrifying.

The blind man heard the sound of the blade being unsheathed, but he was calm, and sat on the wooden bench with his chest upright, and did not move; the scribe also had no fear, and shook the folding fan in his hand, stared at the Mulberry Vulture and the others, and said: "What I am talking about is Liu Yu, the dog thief who bent his knees and lowered his knees and lowered his gold, and was willing to be the emperor!

Tu Jiaohuo stood up and shouted, "What a stinky mouth, Lao Tzu will tear it up for you today!"

I didn't see the scribe raise his legs and take steps, his body suddenly slid to the side, avoiding Tu Jiao's single knife, and shouted: "You stinky girl, these rebellious thieves are very fierce and domineering, and they want to kill people!"

Bai Yixue's heart moved: "This person's light skills are indeed good, and he sang and harmonized with the blind man, and went around in a big circle, it turned out that he was going around the bend to insult Sang Vulture and others." He also knew something about the puppet emperor Liu Yu supported by the Jin people, and under the identification of appearance, the reaction of Sang Vulture and others, knowing that what the scribe said was true, he couldn't help but secretly complain: "It turns out that these people are not people in the love sect, but have a lot to do with Liu Yu of the pseudo-Qi, I am so unclear with them, the righteousness is current, the right and wrong are not clear, isn't it extremely confused?"

In the second year of Song Jianyan (1128), Liu Yu was appointed as the governor of Jinan Prefecture. The Jin soldiers went south to besiege the city, and Liu Yujun was defeated, so he surrendered the city and invested in gold. In the fourth year of Song Jianyan and the eighth year of Jin Tianhui (1130), Liu Yu was canonized as the "Emperor of Great Qi" by Jin.

Liu Yu was known as the emperor, and the puppet emperor Zhang Bangchang, who was also supported by the Jin before, was completely different, he was willing to be the vanguard of the Jin people, and repeatedly sent his son Liu Lin, nephew Liu Yi, and the rebel generals of the Song Dynasty Li Cheng, Kong Yanzhou and others to raise troops to attack the Song Dynasty, but they were repeatedly defeated.

The Jin people supported Liu Yu's puppet regime, hoping that he would "open up the territory and protect the territory" so that he could recuperate, but since Liu Yu invaded the Song Dynasty, "the advance cannot be taken, the retreat cannot be defended, the soldiers are in trouble, and the rest is indefinite", which is gradually disliked by the Jin people. In the fifteenth year of the Jin Tianhui (1137), the Jin people could not bear it anymore, so they deposed Liu Yu as the king of Shu, and set up the Xingshang Shutai in Bianjing to directly manage Henan, Shaanxi and other places under the jurisdiction of the puppet Qi. In the sixth year of the reign of the Jin Emperor (1146), Liu Yu died in exile.

At this time, it has been more than ten years since Liu Yu's death, and his son Liu Lin has been dead for several years, and Liu Yu's puppet Qi's ruling range is in the Central Plains. Bai Yixue secretly thought: "Liu Yu and Liu Lin have passed away for many years, and the masters of Sang Vulture and the others will not be their father and son, but I don't know who they are? Then he thought: "It turns out that Qian Tongshen is a remnant of the evil ministers of the pseudo-Qi, and Zhong Shibo detained him, perhaps not because he coveted his gold and silver treasures, but because he saw through their plot and wanted to eliminate harm for the people." Thinking of this verse, the depressed mood was slightly relieved.

The scribe did not fight with Tu Jiao, relying on his light steps, dodging everywhere in the restaurant, Tu Jiao's bright single knife slashed behind him, the sharp blade slashed into the air, whirring sound, but either cut empty, or cut on the table, stool, always a fraction of a second. The two chased each other in the store.

The diners upstairs saw Tu Jiaoming's dangling ghost head knife, and they were already frightened and fled downstairs, only the shopkeeper felt sorry for his restaurant was damaged, although he was scared, but he couldn't bear to leave, hiding in a place, trembling all over, and his face was full of horror.

Bai Yixue looked at it for a while, and knew that although the scribe was screaming in his mouth, it seemed that the situation was critical, but his light skills were much higher than that of Tu Jiao, and he was really at ease. Shen Yan also saw that the scribe was quite playful, and immediately reached under the table, quietly took out a dart from the leather bag, clasped it in the palm of his hand, and when the scribe was close to him, he raised his right hand, and the dart shot towards the scribe's chest.

When the dart reached the halfway, suddenly a white light flashed in the air, only to hear a crisp sound of "ding", an object collided with the dart in the air, and fell to the ground together.

Shen Yan was secretly taken aback, and turned his head to look at the place where the thistle terrestris came from, but saw that the blind man's eyes were blazing, staring at him, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth. Shen Yan thought darkly: "Okay, it turns out that your eyes are not blind. ”

The scribe danced with his hands and shouted, "Your grandmother's, the secret arrow hurts, the secret arrow hurts!"

The vulture sat still until the scribe was close to him, stretched his right arm, and gently swung out a palm, and a sharp palm force spat out, striking the scribe impartially. The ground on the second floor of the restaurant is paved with wooden boards, and this palm is so excited that the sawdust is splashed, and it is actually forced to shoot a pit the size of a bowl on the wooden board.

The power of the vulture's palm was so amazing, the scribe couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that the enemy's palm was so powerful, if it slapped on his body, he would be seriously injured if he didn't die.

Everyone in the seat, whether they were friends or foes, all secretly admired Mulberry Vulture's hand, but the white-bearded old man turned a blind eye, stroked his long beard, smiled and picked up a peanut, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, he seemed to be unimpressed by it, and it seemed to be unfathomable.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant saw it, and he was distressed for a while, but seeing that these people were all fierce and vicious, how could they dare to squeak.

Mulberry Eagle secretly thought: "If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan." I waited for this time to go south, originally for the sake of the lord's resumption of business, and I had to help these martial arts colleagues in Jiangnan, and I didn't have to turn my face with them until I had to. He shouted: "Fifth brother, fight slowly." ”

Tu Jiao stopped when he heard this. The Mulberry Eagle stood up, walked up to the scribe, and said, "May I ask if the Venerable Driver is Shangguan Fengtong, the 'Spicy Hand Scholar'?"

That scribe is the "spicy hand scholar" Shangguan Fengtong, don't look at his elegant face, gorgeous clothes, like a Yutang figure, is actually a notorious lone thief in the area of Liangzhejiang West Road. He saw that the mulberry vulture actually knew himself, and he felt slightly proud in his heart, and showed the paper fan in his hand, the fan surface was unfolded, and there was a vivid Jiangnan landscape painted on it, and a line of small words was inscribed on the back of the paper fan: "Idle dream Jiangnan plum ripe day, night boat flute rain Xiaoxiao." He closed the paper fan one by one, his expression flew, and he laughed and said, "Yes, it's just that." ”
