Chapter 239: Mountains of Corpses and Sea of Blood
"Someone who wants to live better?"
Bai Xiaosheng muttered and repeated the young man's words.
"That's because they see hope!"
After pondering for a moment, he smiled thoughtfully.
"If everyone is getting by, then the world is too boring, the more such people the better, now that Chen Yusheng has been a marquis, and there are ten thousand households in Shiyi, standing above the court is a flaunt. ”
"Chen Yusheng, let the people of the world know that the court is trustworthy, know that the court is not stingy with glory and wealth, know that the court has opened a road to heaven for the people of the world, and everyone in the world can rise to the top!"
"General Bai Qi, let the people of the world know that General Xu of the imperial court saw peace, there were not so many high-ranking masters, cunning rabbits died, lackeys cooked, and good bows were hidden. ”
The young man didn't hurry up.
"Your Highness has been in Lixin for a long time?"
Bai Xiaosheng was shocked.
"To change the law, you must first establish faith!"
The young man laughed lightly when he remembered the matter of Shang Yinglimu in his previous life, and now after stepping on the rivers and lakes, the imperial examination is about to be held by the imperial court, and there is no room for mistakes, and now there is another example of the rise of the cold family.
The cold door has never referred to those poor families who are surrounded by four walls, and they have eaten the last meal but not the next meal, and the family in which Liu Changchun is located has not reached the standard of the family door valve, but it is far better than those ordinary people, this is the cold door is between the people, after the door valve, above the people.
Under the Yuelai Inn,
The crowd was silent, and all the people looked at the middle-aged man crawling on the ground in a daze, and the legs of the second master of Qingyun Village were even a little stiff, looking at the figure under his crotch.
Liu Changchun slowly got up,
The saliva on the face and the dust on the knees are particularly embarrassing.
But no one in the room laughed out loud,
The lean man in charge of Qingyun Village's second house, his lips squirmed, and he just wanted to say something.
"I thank you for being the second master, magnanimous!"
The first thing Liu Changchun did after getting up was to salute,
Meticulous in action,
It seems that he is really thanking him sincerely,
By the way, it blocked what the man wanted to say.
"Why are you still stunned?"
"Thank you to the second master!"
Li Zhutou also reacted very quickly when he heard the sound,
Shouted loudly.
"Thank you for the second master, don't kill the grace!"
"Thank you for the second master, raise your noble hand!"
......
The dozen or so fast catchers behind him trembled and saluted and thanked the man.
"Get out!"
The second master of Qingyun Zhai looked at the scene in front of him, and after being stunned for a moment, he reacted and squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, the words of the person in front of him have blocked his retreat, and the most basic face of the mixed rivers and lakes still has to be wanted, and the words have been spoken, and if he regrets it, I am afraid that others will not be able to stand it.
"The kindness of the second master today is unforgettable. ”
"If you have the chance, you will be rewarded!"
Liu Changchun's smile is like a spring breeze,
But the second master of Qingyun Village only felt cold to the bone.
"I'm tired of the hero, I borrowed it. ”
Liu Changchun raised his hand and gently pushed away the long knife of a reckless man in front of him, and passed sideways.
"You bastards. ”
"Don't hurry up and keep up with Lord Liu!"
Li Zhutou cursed, and led the fast catcher behind him to follow quickly, and the short distance of twenty or thirty zhang was indeed terrifying, but fortunately, there was no danger in the end.
After more than ten zhang of Yuelai Inn,
Just around the corner,
Liu Changchun paused,
Wipe the saliva off his face with his sleeve expressionlessly,
"There are still twenty-three families in the east of Li Zhutou City, and they must move out of the city before dawn on the fifth watch!"
Liu Changchun looked up at the sky and said softly.
"My lord, I really can't persuade you. ”
"Those, wives and widowers, do not eat oil and salt. ”
"I'm not afraid of death, and there's no way to do it. ”
"Then kneel and persuade!"
"Since you are a lonely old man, then you should be persuaded as a child!"
Liu Changchun said loudly.
"......"
"Even if you recognize a father and mother, you have to take people out of the city with all my beards and tails, outsiders are not easy to persuade each other, but when you are a child, you can always persuade you, right?"
"One person, one household, must be completed!"
Liu Changchun said word by word.
"Squeak squeak......"
After saying that,
Liu Changchun stepped into the alley and pushed open a dilapidated yard,
The old woman in rags is struggling to fetch water, and the yamen household register records that his man died of illness when he was young, and he will not marry for the rest of his life for forty or fifty years, and even once wanted to set up a chaste archway for this old woman, this old woman is notoriously stubborn, and it is also Liu Changchun's biggest problem.
Qingcheng County is the place where this old woman has lived all her life, and now most of her body is about to enter the ground, and trying to persuade her to leave her hometown is tantamount to being more difficult than climbing to the sky.
Older people are reluctant to leave, and lonely people are even more so, they can't stand the bumps, not to mention that if they die in another country on the way, they can't return to their roots.
"Granny Wang, Da Liu has come to see you. ”
Liu Changchun took the bucket in the old woman's hand and naturally filled the iron pot with water, and added firewood to the hole of the stove, the pot was noodles tumbling up and down, and the white noodles were tumbling up and down in the pot, like waves.
"Lord Liu, I can't help it. ”
"How can you be tired of all this menial work. ”
The old woman wiped her cloudy eyes and saw the person in front of her,
Wave your hand again and again.
"Out of the way. ”
Liu Changchun waved his hand.
"Lord Liu, have you eaten?"
The old woman looked at the white noodles tumbling in the pot and asked,
"Granny Wang, is it your birthday today?"
Liu Changchun already knew in his heart the moment he saw the white noodles in the pot, the tradition here is that the old people have to eat a bowl of longevity noodles when they celebrate their birthdays.
"That's right, it's rare for Lord Liu to remember the birthday of his wife. ”
"On weekdays, there is no personal leg inconvenience at home. ”
"It's just as simple as that, if Lord Liu doesn't dislike it. ”
"You're going to have a bowl of it too?"
Wang Po smiled kindly.
"Don't dislike it, where is the princess. ”
Liu Changchun is as good as a stream, and people of his age naturally know that for the elderly, the most important thing is companionship.
......
In the dilapidated but extremely clean courtyard,
On a long bench, the two of them were holding clay bowls, chatting about homely things while eating, and Liu Changchun was eating noodles with no signs of urgency.
"Lady Wang, do you have any relatives outside the city?"
After Liu Changchun ate the noodles in the bowl at all, he raised his head and asked the old woman on the side.
"Where did the relatives come from, when they got married, there was no one on their mother's side, and as for the relatives on the husband's side, they didn't leave a son, where can they recognize?"
Wang Po patted her legs,
There is not much sadness in the words,
Only a faint loneliness remains.
"Lord Liu, if you still go out of the city today, you don't need to mention it, I don't move my nest in my life, I don't even have a person to collect the body outside, I died in the city, even if I really die in the yard, it can be regarded as a fallen leaf and return to the roots. ”
Wang Po's expression remained unchanged, but the brilliance in her eyes was much dimmer.
"Lady Wang, that's not the case. ”
"It's that Da Liu found you a relative outside the city. ”
"Relatives?"
"Naturally!"
Liu Changchun put the pottery bowl aside in the incomprehensible gaze of Wang Po, walked in front of Wang Po very solemnly, bent his knees, and fell directly to the ground.
"Godmother, please bow to the child!"
Kowtow loudly,
There is no hypocrisy,
Wang Po was indeed stunned on the spot.
"I can't help it, I can't make it ......"
"Lord Liu, you are tormenting the old woman......"
Wang Po woke up and wanted to pick up the figure on the ground, but the latter was still unmoved, and seriously knocked the remaining few rings.
"From now on, Mrs. Wang, you are my godmother Liu Changchun. ”
"Now the city is restless, and thieves are rampant!"
"How can I, Liu Changchun, put my mother in danger, and ask my mother to go out of the city with the child!"
"This ......"
"Please also ask the mother not to put the child in the realm of disloyalty and unfilial piety!"
The old woman still wants to speak,
"Lord Liu, why is this so, the old woman is ...... when she goes out of the city"
The old woman had never seen such a scene in most of her life, and there was a faint cry in her eager words.
Liu Changchun was unmoved, and leaned directly to the ground,
Carrying the old woman on her back, she lifted her feet and walked out the door.
"Please also rest assured that the matter of pension will be handed over to the child, I will regard you as your biological parents, and I hope that my mother will be relieved. ”
Liu Changchun felt the trembling old body on his back,
Solemnly.
In the alleys,
The catcher who had just stepped out of the threshold in frustration looked at the scene in front of him and opened his mouth wide, but he didn't know how to speak, and his face was full of shame.
......
At the beginning of the time,
The sunset reflects the walls of the small city,
At the city gate, a group of arrogant and domineering officials who usually show off their martial arts and prestige are carrying a group of old people to the outside of the city, neglecting to exercise on weekdays, leaning on Lou, and some struggle, but they still have to grit their teeth and go out of the city, and there are several ox carts behind them, which are full of all kinds of messy luggage.
When the gates opened,
Liu Changchun put the old man on his back on the ox cart,
"Said softly, mother, you will first go to the next county with Li Zhutou to avoid the limelight. ”
"What about you?"
"Now filial piety, the child has done it. ”
"There is still one loyalty, the food of the king, the matter of loyalty!"
"The child is still in Qingcheng County, and the people in the city have not all left, how can the child leave easily? ”
Liu Changchun smiled mildly and said, "When you arrive at the county seat, your mother just needs to go to Meng County, that person is a good friend of the child, and he will arrange you properly." ”
The old woman was teary-eyed,
Liu Changchun resolutely turned around,
Until this time, there were still thirteen lonely and widowed families in Qingcheng County.
......
Following
Five watches,
One slow and four fast,
"Knock-knock, knock, knock, knock!"
There was a sound of bangs in the alley,
Liu Changchun carried the last old man on his back and slowly walked out of the city,
At the beginning of the day,
And a light rose from heaven and earth,
Yin and Yang convergence,
An old Taoist priest with white hair came riding a green ox
Sitting cross-legged on the broad back of the ox,
White hair and white beard, even the robes on the body are snow-white,
With his hands clasped together between his knees, he held a decree,
Hands waved, draw a big Zhoutian, the internal force faintly has a black and white two extremely spiritual fish swimming, from a distance to look extremely strange, when the morning sun falls behind the old Taoist, the black and white silhouette of the old man is like a god, fairy wind bones, fluttering like a fairy.
"Old Yuan Immortal on Wudang Mountain?"
At the city gate,
Liu Changchun carried the old man on his back and looked at the figure slowly coming on the horizon, which was originally on the boundary of Tongxunyang County, and he had burned incense on the mountain, and he was fortunate to see the scene of the old fairy meditating on the cliff, exhaling like a dragon, stirring the sea of clouds in the sky, and the atmosphere was majestic to the extreme.
But right now, there is not such a vast atmosphere,
But there is an indescribable mystery,
Near,
The old fairy Yuan had already ridden the green ox to the city gate,
I don't know why Liu Changchun only felt that the old fairy's face was a little pale,
"Junior Liu Changchun, I've seen the old immortals!"
Looking at the old man passing by,
Liu Changchun said with a sigh,
The old fairy didn't say anything,
The smile is indeed like a spring breeze,
"How could such an old immortal rebel and act so rebellious......"
Liu Changchun's heart became more and more determined.
......
Yuelai Inn,
When the green ox stepped on the long street,
The old immortal of Wudang Mountain appeared in everyone's sight.
"Junior Zhang Wei, I have seen Wudang Yuan Old Immortal!"
"Junior Fan Yunle, I have seen Wudang Yuan Old Heavenly Master!"
"Junior Fan Chongwei, I have seen Wudang Yuan Old Daoist!"
......
Greetings came from the streets and alleys,
I don't know when,
The whole long street was filled with people.
Looking at the old Taoist priest on the green ox, he was a little distracted, half a moon ago, there were people who saw Yuan Lao Immortal when they went up the mountain, breathing and exhaling a crane-haired childish appearance, but now the whole person is showing a kind of pathology visible to the naked eye, what happened in this half month?
"Wudang Named Disciple Xu Xian, welcome the old immortals!"
The young man sat on the eaves of the roof of the inn, his legs swayed slightly, stretched out very comfortably, and shouted after looking at the people below.
Yuan Chongdao looked for prestige, and smiled at the young man who looked like a hanger on the eaves, and everyone was stunned when they heard the name, and they didn't take it to heart.
"Old fairy, please go upstairs!"
The young man jumped lightly and fell from the roof of the building,
"Wudang is the first named son, Xu Xian, is invited!"
"I've prepared a big show for the old fairy today!"
The young man patted his ass very lightly and said.
When the old Taoist priest turned over and got off the back of the cow, the young man's right hand was raised slightly, and an extremely soft force gently dragged Yuan Chongdao's body into the air and then slowly fell, and everyone looked at Yuan Chongdao again in amazement, and all their doubts disappeared.
......
Thirty or forty miles outside the city,
An extremely handsome Haidongqing pierced the sky,
The boundless iron rider below,
All of them are red and black, and their faces are cold,
......
Outside Qingcheng County,
Hundreds of Qianrui soldiers had already appeared on the horizon, wearing cold black armor, carrying an iron-tired hard bow, carrying a broad-bodied short sword at his waist, a fine iron dagger stuck diagonally, and holding a thick oar embedded with cowhide in his hand.
Turn over and dismount,
Swift as the wind,
On the low castle, Liu Changchun looked at the brave soldiers in the distance and was speechless for a long time.
Turning around and looking at the bustling rivers and lakes in the city, he seemed to see a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood in a trance.
