Qizhou has the prosperity of Qizhou, and the town also has the liveliness of a small town.

On the street of the three dojos, there are several shouts; in the restaurant in Anping Lane, the figures are scattered; on the stage in the restaurant, the waking wood slaps the table; and the audience at the table listens to the story.

Li Quzhi walked out of the Taoist temple, walked in the direction of his home, passed the three dojos, and saw Fenglai Lou, the only restaurant in the town on Anping Lane, surrounded by many people.

There was a burst of clapping and cheering from inside, and it turned out to be an old man with crane hair and a young girl in a red shirt telling a story.

This old man and girl came to Yaojia Town half a month ago, negotiated the price with the shopkeeper of Fenglai Building, and began to tell stories in Fenglai Building.

Before, Li Quzhi had heard a few stories from the grandfather and grandson from the countryside, and he still liked it very much. Many of the things that the grandfather and grandson said had never been seen in a book, and every time the old man finished speaking, he would add a comment, which was extremely whimsical.

Hearing the applause inside, Li Quai's heart was itching, and he wanted to hear what his grandfather and grandson were talking about, so he took out a copper coin and gave it to the guy in the shop, and entered Fenglai Building.

The pattern of Fenglai Building is similar to that of other restaurants in Qilu Land. There is a large counter in the shape of a curved ruler on the street, and there are six large wine jars behind it, which have been polished for a long time, and the aroma of wine can be smelled from afar. The restaurant is divided into two floors, the first floor is the lobby, the lobby is equipped with more than ten tables of eight immortals and supporting benches, for guests to drink and eat; On the second floor are guest rooms, with more than 10 rooms in total, where guests can rest.

According to my grandfather, the town used to be close to the official road, which was the only way to travel between Qizhou and Tai'an, so the town was more lively. Later, after the Dajin Dynasty changed its official roads, the town gradually quieted down. The most affected in the town is this Fenglai Tower. In the past, the upstairs of Fenglai Building was full of merchants and wanderers who traveled back and forth between Qizhou and Tai'an, and the downstairs was full of diners. Now there are fewer merchants coming and going, and there are two or three people on the second floor all year round, and some people in the town are basically taking care of the business downstairs. But it doesn't matter if the shopkeeper is noisy, it doesn't matter how quiet it is, he can be at ease.

Today, the restaurant is full of people.

I only heard a "snap", and the old man said: "The three emperors and five emperors of morality, the fame of Xiahou Shang and Zhou, the five tyrants and seven heroes make trouble in the Spring and Autumn Period, and they rise and fall in an instant." There are several lines of names and surnames in the green history, and there are countless barren hills in the north, and the predecessors sow seeds and the descendants reap them, saying that the dragon fights for the tiger. Ladies and gentlemen, today I will talk about a big topic - the heroes of the world are born of my generation."

I only heard the girl ask: "Grandpa, you said the world, then let me ask you, how big is the world?"

The old man turned around and asked, "How big do you say this Qizhou is?"

The girl replied: "This Qizhou, whether it is big or not, is not small, and it is more than two hundred miles square. ”

The old man then asked, "Then do you know how many states and prefectures there are under this Dajin Dynasty?"

The girl replied: "This Dajin Dynasty has fifty states in the Youyun region alone, plus the northern border and the land outside the Guan, there are one hundred and forty states."

The old man then asked, "Then do you know how many dynasties like the Dajin Dynasty are in the world?"

The girl replied, "The world is divided into four continents, the East Sheng Divine Continent, the South Ganbu Continent, the West Niu He Continent, and the North Julu Continent. Only in the south of Ganbu Continent, there are the Song Dynasty, the Dajin Dynasty and the Great Xia Dynasty, during which there are countless small countries, there are Goryeo in the east, Mongolia in the north, Huathorn Zimo, Tubo and Western Liao in the west, Dali, Li Dynasty, Khmer Angkor Dynasty, Gur Dynasty, Chaola Dynasty and other small countries and tribes in the south. ”

The old man then asked, "How big is this world?"

The girl replied, "It's not that I don't know, it's shocking." The world is so big, how many people must be there?"

The old man replied: "According to the Taoist ancestor who rode a bull all over the four continents and seas, there are tens of thousands of cities and hundreds of thousands of people in these four continents and four seas."

The girl asked, "Grandpa, there are so many people in the world, are there any big heroes who stand up to the sky and sing and cry?"

The old man replied, "You are a young girl, and you know what a great hero is."

The girl said, "Who said I didn't know, I'll give you an example of the great hero in my heart." More than 3,000 years ago, the Central Plains flooded, boundless, flooding crops, mountains and tombs, and burying houses. Emperor Shun sent King Yu to control the water. King Yu said goodbye to his wife Tu Shan, who had just been married for four days, and took Boyi and Houji two virtuous people, holding the line in his left hand, holding the stator in his right hand, and carrying a sword behind his back. ”

After speaking, the girl suddenly asked, "Grandpa, do you know how difficult it is for King Yu to control the water?"

The old man shook his head and said, "I don't know, you can tell me." ”

The girl seemed a little proud, and continued: "King Yu has three difficulties in controlling the water, one is that there is no river on the ground, the second is that there is a dragon in the water, and the third is that the dragon gate has natural dangers. King Yu used a standard line to determine the direction of the water flow, used a stator to measure the depth of the water flow, and used a sword to kill the dragon in the water. Only nine dragons were left after killing, and the nine dragons said that they would no longer do evil, and were willing to return to King Yu and help King Yu dig the river. With the help of Kowloon, King Yu opened up nine rivers to lead the Yellow River into the sea. As for the whereabouts of the last nine dragons, it is unknown, it is rumored that King Yu and Jiaolong agreed, and placed them in a small cave, and no one in the world has ever seen Jiaolong again. Longmen natural risk, is the most difficult to solve the water control of King Yu, when the Yellow River to here, encountered the mountains to block, the river overflowed, like thunder. In the end, King Yu pulled out the sword behind his back, and a sword split the Longmen Heavenly Danger, forming a wonder of the water of the Yellow River coming from the sky. But this sword down, the sword of Yitian was broken into nine pieces, and it also damaged the foundation of King Yu's avenue, he had already entered the eighth realm, and he could have a life span of three hundred years, but decades later, when King Yu was in the east to tour Jishan, he drove the crane to the west. Grandpa, do you think King Yu can be regarded as a big hero? ”

The old man replied: "King Yu thinks of the common people, gives up his small family, and takes care of everyone, of course, he can be regarded as a great man of chivalry, a great hero for the country and the people." ”

Between the question and answer of the old man and the girl, inadvertently, they all looked at Li Quai.

Li Quzhi didn't pay much attention, he lowered his head and pondered, he vaguely felt that the story told by the storyteller girl had a lot to do with the story told by the old man in the town, but he couldn't say it.

The girl said: "Grandpa, don't talk about the big heroes in the distance, I will talk about the big heroes in the near future." Three years ago, the Dajin Dynasty went south to attack the Dasong Dynasty, and the lord of the Dajin Dynasty, Wanyan Kang, took Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongbi in the 'Six Sect Marshals', and hundreds of thousands of tigers and wolves, all the way to Yangzhou City. And, of course, the great shaman was with him. ”

Hearing the Great Shaman, many listeners twisted in their hearts, it was really that he was too amazing. According to legend, Taizu of the Dajin Dynasty attacked the Great Liao Dynasty, and Taizu was trapped by tens of thousands of iron horsemen of the Great Liao Dynasty, and all the surrounding soldiers were slaughtered. It was this great shaman, with a smile on his face all the time, holding a Sauron pole, facing the endless Daliao cavalry, killing a bloody way and rescuing Taizu.

According to historical records, on the day when Taizu was trapped on the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the great shaman dressed in white clothes entered and exited the Liao army camp three times, and killed more than 1,200 armor of the Liao army with one shot, and the white clothes turned red. In the end, the great shaman stood calmly in front of Emperor Liao and said something shocking: "As the Son of Heaven, with a wave of your big hand, thousands of troops and horses can certainly make the head of our master fall to the ground; ”

The great shaman was a woman named Wanyan Xiyi.

Since then, there has been a saying in the world, "After Yan Xiyi, the world's white clothes will become red." ”

The girl looked around for a moment, waited for everyone to calm down a little, and continued: "The great shaman certainly has the reputation of the great shaman, and the reader also has the ability to read. It is said that Emperor Dasong ordered Han Liangchen, one of the 'Seven Kings of Dasong', to stick to Yangzhou City, and hold on to Dayi Town, east of Yangzhou and north of the Yangtze River, with Wanyan, the lord of Dajin. At this time, an old Confucian student with a lupine scarf came. The old Confucian priest put his hands behind him, floated in the air, and said to the soldiers: 'Whether you are a child of the Dasong Dynasty or a child of the Dajin Dynasty, you will sacrifice yourself in the war, have you ever thought about what to do with the white-haired and sad high hall at home, have you ever thought about what to do with the children who are waiting to be fed at home, and have you ever thought about what to do with millions of people, whose families are ruined, wandering around, having no fixed place to live, and not having enough to eat'. ”

Before the words fell, there were many applause and cheers in the restaurant. Then everyone fell silent and waited for the rest with expectant eyes.

The girl continued: "After the old Confucian finished speaking, he said to Wan Yan, the lord of the Dajin Kingdom, that he had secretly assisted General Han in capturing the Dajin Dynasty's general Tart and his party of more than 200 people. The old Confucian made a bet with the Dajin Dynasty, he was willing to challenge the three masters of the Dajin Dynasty alone, and whether he won or lost, he was willing to guarantee the release of more than 200 captured Dajin officers and soldiers. But if he wins, the Dajin Dynasty must immediately withdraw its troops and promise not to invade the Dasong Dynasty again for ten years. If he loses, he himself is at the disposal of the Dajin dynasty. On the battlefield, the old Confucian gave this problem to Wan Yan Kang, the lord of Dajin State, and forced Wan Yan Kang to give an answer. ”

Suddenly, a middle-aged man in the corner of the restaurant stood up and asked, "Did Yan Yan agree?"

Another voice came from the restaurant: "He has to agree, and if he doesn't, he has to agree." There are three reasons, one is that in front of the officers and men of the three armies, they must not increase the prestige of the enemy and weaken their own ambition. The second is that most of the officers and men of the three armed forces are unwilling to fight, and if it can be solved in this way, it will definitely be the best choice; if they do not choose in this way, the officers and men of the three armed forces will definitely feel that the lord of the country does not value the lives of the soldiers at all, thus affecting the morale of the army. The third is to choose to agree, which will help to welcome back the captured soldiers, otherwise it will chill the hearts of the soldiers, because the soldiers will think what if the captured person is himself. Therefore, I guess that Yan Kang will definitely agree, and Wan Yan Kang may still be thinking that we have a great division present, and it is a sure win and not a loss. ”

The girl continued: "This guest officer is reasonable, I don't know what Wan Yan Yan thought at the time, but he did choose to agree. ”

Then the old Confucian looked at General Han Liangchen, and General Han said at that time, "Old man, be careful, fuck it." ”

After that, it was really three earth-shattering competitions of ghosts and gods.

The storyteller girl talked endlessly, but in a hearty place, she came suddenly.

The listeners of those restaurants who drank and ate through the story, one by one, were stunned, stopped the cup and chopsticks, and after returning to their senses, they found that the story had not yet ended, and suddenly came back to their senses, and then they heard the shouts of "Xiao Er, on the wine", "Xiao Er, three pots of Langyutai".

Of course, Li Quzhi didn't ask for wine, but stood in the corner by himself, clenched his fists, and his eyes widened, feeling that "a scholar has to be such an old Confucian", he has read so many sage books, but he doesn't care about some state affairs, which seems to be interesting.

The storyteller looked around, saw that everyone's wine table was full of wine and food again, and smiled with satisfaction, today I can get some extra reward from the shopkeeper.

The storyteller continued: "The first person in the Dajin Dynasty to fight was Fang Moyan, one of the 'Six Sect Commanders and Nine Generals'. Fang Hou Ye is one of the nine generals of the Dajin Dynasty, in history, the Dajin Dynasty has countless siege battles, Fang Moyan has been the first to kill the head of the city many times, and the last to exit the city. As soon as Fang Moyan came up, he took out the strength of the peak of the sixth realm, but after only three moves, the cold iron meteor halberd he used was shattered by the old Confucian Sheng, and he spat blood from his mouth and retreated. ”

"The second person in the Dajin Dynasty to fight was an unknown old Taoist priest, wearing a hibiscus crown and holding a breeze sword, and nine figures appeared on the battlefield at the same time. According to General Han Liangchen's later recollections, he said that he had seen many masters with swords, and compared with this Taoist, he felt like an old woman holding an embroidery needle. The old Taoist and the old Confucian fought for more than 100 rounds, and the old Taoist finally used nine small swords about nine inches and nine inches long, forming a ninety-nine true sword array, and transformed into countless swords, the so-called Ten Thousand Swords Dynasty. The old Confucian held a willow branch in his hand and shot out countless willow leaves, and the willow leaves entered the sword array, making the sword array that had been running smoothly paused, and the old Confucian stepped into the sword formation in an instant, and a wicker shot at the old Taoist like a full moon bow, hitting the old Taoist who flew upside down for dozens of zhang and broke two ribs. ”

"Originally, everyone thought that the third person in the Dajin Dynasty to fight was the Great Shaman of the National Teacher, but what they didn't expect was not. However, as soon as this person came out, the soldiers of the Da Song Dynasty were a little indignant and a little desperate. The last one of the Dajin Dynasty is the top ten people in the entire Nanzhan Continent for thousands of years, and he is recognized as the top ten people in the killing power of the evil demons, and the former Elder Taishang of the White Lotus Sect is allowed to cultivate by me. Twenty years ago, because he was found to have used the boy and girl to make Danding, he betrayed the White Lotus Sect, and at that time, the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism and the hundred schools of Zhuzi sent a total of three great monks of the True Realm and more than a dozen monks of the Yuan Infant Realm, but they were still killed by him. ”

Hearing this, some of the surrounding listeners were already white, some listeners clenched their fists on their knees, and some listeners were sweating.

Suddenly, the girl suddenly laughed loudly, her sleeves shook violently, and then said impassionedly, "Old Confucian has won! Won! Won! Old Confucian used twelve books to create a small world with his own heroic spirit, so that he could sit in it like a saint and kill Ren I Xiu on the spot." ”

In the end, Wan Yan announced his retirement from the army, broke his bow and swore that the Dajin Dynasty would invade the Dasong Dynasty again within ten years. ”

The two armies roared with joy, who has no wife and children and who has no mother, who can really be willing to go to the battlefield.

It's just that the girl didn't finish telling the story of the old Confucian student, how can there be a real quiet time in this world......
