Volume 1 Yu Chudu Chapter 10 Unpredictable Fortune and Misfortune
Speaking of this, Murong Shangmei's eyes were sad, she was smiling while eating, the corners of her mouth were raised, and her tears were falling.
Zhang Min raised his head slightly, and saw that the night was dark and the stars were shining brightly, but he was stunned in his heart. Murong Shangmei seemed to be talking to herself, and muttered in a low voice: "That day, I passed by a restaurant in the south of Taiyuan City, I was about to go in to rest, but I heard a person drinking and chanting poetry on the second floor, the voice was very familiar to my ears, I was shocked, and I hurriedly went upstairs to look, and saw a person sitting on the table by the window, with a gloomy expression and eyebrows, it was the person I thought about day and night. I was about to step forward, but I saw him look at me, and his eyes were still as warm as when I first saw him, but for a moment, his body moved slightly, and he had already broken through the window and jumped down. When I rushed to the window to look, he had already disappeared around the corner. I was filled with joy and sorrow for a while, and then a sour feeling came to my heart, and I couldn't bear the pain that had accumulated for a long time, so I fell on the table and vented it loudly. But he saw a book on the ground, thinking that it was something that the man had left behind when he jumped out of the window. When I picked it up and looked at it, it said "Su Xin Ji", and when I opened it, it was full of lovesick words, and the end was signed with the words "Li Minzhu". Alas, it turns out that he has always had me in his heart, just... It's just that... , that was the business of the previous generation, and we were swept up in the dark. It's really a cycle of cause and effect, and retribution is unpleasant. It turned out that the book that Murong Shangmei picked up recorded Li Minzhu's bitter love since he left her.
The first half of the book is full of memorable words of love, and the second half of the book is full of shocking secrets.
Nineteen years ago, in a countryside in Yanmen, there lived a big squire, the ancestor was the Han Dynasty in the clouds, and then the family road declined, and it has already become a cloth in the hands of this squire.
However, the hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff, has some family business in the end. This squire is half a hundred, and there is only one son under his knees, who is still in infancy.
When the child grew up to five or six years old, the old man not only invited the local Confucian to come to his home to give lectures to the children every day, but also went to the local famous temple every year to ask the big monk to pray for the children's practice, which was really regarded as a treasure.
Although the family is not rich and wealthy, they are happy and happy. In a blink of an eye, the child had reached the age of the horn, and one day the old man wanted to take the child to a local temple called the Void Temple to make a vow.
Set off early in the morning, arrive at the temple at noon, and complete the vow, the old man and the monk in the temple have a while of greetings, it is already the sunset of the West Mountain.
The old man said goodbye to the host and returned home with his children. The father and son walked out of the temple gate for about a pillar of incense, and they were about to arrive home.
At this time, suddenly a group of men and horses rushed from the opposite side, but it was a group of chaotic soldiers fighting the autumn wind. When the rebels saw that there were two people on the road, one of them was a big black-haired man on horseback, and he opened his bow and arrows, and only swished twice, and the old man and the child were both hit by arrows and fell to the ground.
The rest of the people saw that the black-haired man had no arrows, and cheered in unison, and everyone galloped away laughing. It's a pity that the father and son were caught in trouble for no reason, which is really unfortunate.
But God is pitiful, although the child was hit by an arrow, he did not die after all. Later, he woke up and wept on his father.
He pulled out the arrow from his body and the arrow from his father's forehead. I vaguely saw that there were words engraved on the shaft of the arrow, and after a closer look, the words 'Youzhou Murong Hao' were engraved on it.
The boy was so angry that he wrapped two arrows in half of his sleeve and hid them in his coat. Later, in order to avoid chaos, the family sent the child to the Void Temple.
The presiding officer of the temple saw the face of the old man, and the compassion of the family, so he adopted the child in the temple, practiced martial arts and practiced scriptures every day, and in the dead of night, he took out the two arrows, stroked them carefully, and secretly swore in his heart that this revenge must be avenged in the future.
That child is Li Minzhu, the ancestor is a famous general of the Han Dynasty, after Li Guang was guarded in the clouds, his father was originally called Li Yizhi, because people are kind and charitable, and the villagers are called Li Dashanren.
Since the death of his father, Li Minzhu entered the Void Temple, and although he takes Buddhist scriptures as his companion every day, the thoughts of revenge in his heart are increasing day by day.
That's right
"The world is full of fragrant flowers in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom", and a few years have passed in a blink of an eye, and Li Minzhu is already the year of dancing elephants.
On this day, the temple meditated and chanted as usual, and Li Minzhu took advantage of the time to sneak out of the temple, wanting to seek revenge from all over the world.
In the first half year of his entry into the rivers and lakes, Li Minzhu suffered a lot because he was not deeply involved in the world, and the broken silver he carried was also cheated out.
I had no choice but to sell my art on the street, and begged for the usual half-hanging food. He set out from Yanmen, went all the way south, and after several months of bumpy travel, he came to Zhongshan on this day.
It was the middle of winter, and it was snowing again, Li Minzhu rode a horse and hurried, and suddenly saw an inn in front of him, and was about to go in to rest, but saw a group of people entangled around a girl.
Although he was not a benevolent person, after all, he had studied Buddhist scriptures in the Void Temple for a few years, and he also had some compassion in his chest, so he immediately stepped forward to save the girl.
This girl is Murong Shangmei, which led to the romantic debt behind. After that night, Murong Shangmei truthfully confessed his identity, and when Li Minzhu heard it, he suddenly thundered like five thunders.
Although Murong Hao was not the one who killed his father with his own hands, his father died under Murong Hao's arrows, and the so-called 'revenge for killing his father is not shared with the sky', but it also has a lot to do with it.
Since the beloved in front of him is the daughter of the enemy who killed his father, how can he accept it for a while. But the big mistake has been made, if I have anything to do with her again, how can I face the spirit of my father in heaven?
Enraged, he resolutely turned and left. Since then, Murong Shangmei has been left with orphans and widows, and later Murong Shangmei sent her daughter to the empty door and searched for a husband for thousands of miles.
It wasn't until I met Li Minzhu in this restaurant in Taiyuan and picked up the book of "Su Xin Ji" that he left behind, that I understood the whole thing.
Murong Shangmei told the cause and effect of the matter like this. Zhang Min was silent after hearing this, and his heart was already full of emotion.
It's just that there is still something unclear, since Li Minzhu went through the window, why did Murong Shangmei come to this Valley of Hundred Beasts?
I was about to ask each other, but I felt that it was inappropriate, and the words came to my mouth and swallowed again. After a while, Murong Shangmei continued: "Since I had a hurried meeting in Taiyuan Restaurant that day, I have been disheartened. originally planned to find her daughter and take her back to her hometown in Liaodong with her. Alas, there are fathers and mothers in the family, as well as brothers, and they are all very fond of me. Since I ran away from home, I have wandered the rivers and lakes over the years, and what I have encountered really makes me feel cold. I was in Taiyuan for a few months, and I was about to return home, and one day I was buying my own things in the middle of the street, and I met a lame old man. The old man shook his head again and again when he saw me, and I didn't think about it at first, but still walked forward. But I heard the old Taoist sigh. I turned around and asked, 'Why do you sigh, Master?' and the old man looked at me, but he didn't say anything, and only wrote the word 'bamboo' on the palm of my right hand. I became suspicious, and I hurriedly made a fuss, saying, 'Who is my teacher?' who knows my heart, and asks me for advice. But the old man smiled and did not answer, and turned away. After walking about fifty or sixty steps, I suddenly heard the old Taoist sing a few proverbs, saying, "A hundred years of ups and downs, the troubled world is like a rumble." If you want to become a spring thing, the bamboo leaves fall in the sun'. When I listened closely, the old way was already gone. I was stunned for a moment, and I only savored those few words. ”
