The first time, it fell into the dust

"Stroke the long sword, how can the world invite fame. The star flag is raised, and the sun feather is in the sky. Ten thousand horses are all over the field, and Linyuan is stationed in five battalions. Mountaineering and martial arts festivals, backwater and gods. In Xirong, now the universe is flat. ”

This poem "Returning Shaanxi Shuhuai" was composed by Li Shimin, the king of Qin, in the fourth year of Tang Wude, and led a large army to pacify the eastern part of the country and return to the middle of the Guanzhong. "Now the universe is peaceful" shows Li Shimin's ambition in life, but if he wants to achieve peace in the world, he must move into a big fight, and how to make people sigh and sigh in the truth. Five years later, during the Xuanwu Change, Li Shimin punished his elder brother Prince Jiancheng and his fourth brother Yuanji to win the position of prince. After Gaozu abdicated the throne, Li Shimin ascended the throne, and the year name was set as "Zhenguan" according to the "Book of Changes: Under the Resignation" "The Way of Heaven and Earth, and the Zhenguan Person", which created a three-hundred-year foundation of the Tang Dynasty.

When this Jin Ge Iron Horse, the world of painting corners and hanging pots, there is a family in Linhai County, Qingzhou, the surname of the head of the household is Chi Mingyushu, this is a strategist under Li Shimin, after the assistant lord became a big event, he suddenly retired, resigned and returned to his hometown, read and painted, trained his grandchildren, and raised his life.

On this day, he turned out "Spring and Autumn" again, and was reading "Zhuang Gong has six years in ten years", "Winter has two months, will be Qi Hou, Song Gong, Chen Hou...... Xu is a little longer, a wave of tiredness hit. I was about to hold on, and suddenly felt a flash of red light in front of me, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that there was a sika deer looking at him across the case, wagging his tail. Chifu did not raise deer, and was about to open his mouth to call someone, but when he saw that the deer had a gentle gaze, as if he had something to say, he was more and more surprised and forgot to speak. The deer turned and paced to the door, outside the door with its front legs, and inside the door with its hind legs. His heart moved, and he followed. The deer quickly moved towards the garden, and although Chi Yushu knew the destiny of heaven early, his legs and feet were also dexterous, and he followed. The deer found the entrance to a false cave and hid in it.

Chi Yushu was eager to find out, but he went into the hole without thinking, but he didn't see the shadow of the deer. After walking more than ten steps, it suddenly opens up, the fragrance of flowers refreshes the spleen, and the birds are calm. Watching intently, the clouds and smoke are swirling, and the purple air is in the sky. I was wondering how there was such a good place at home, when I suddenly heard a few shouts from the clouds: "Go to play tricks and have fun again? Let's go, don't come and see, the winner will be known immediately. Chi Yushu heard this, and was suspicious: "The words of Sahuan'er and hooves are blame for the deer, but how can the deer taste chess?" When the clouds and smoke faded, three old men appeared, sitting around a stone table, and there was a chess table on the table. In the face of Chi Yushu, the old man watching chess was holding a dove cane, with a crane on the left and a deer on the right; both sides of the game were dressed normally, and they were no different from the housekeepers. Xin said: "Isn't this old man on the other side an Antarctic immortal? Why don't you see a big forehead? Who is at the end of these two?" There were two grass baskets on the side, scattered with several chess pieces. The three of them felt that someone was coming, but they only glanced at it and ignored it. Chi Yushu hesitated for a moment, and slowly approached the chess game.

This game is just in the middle of the game, the black and white sides are fighting in the upper part, and the white chess is already exhausted. The black piece is naturally mentioned first, and the white piece is pointed at the place where the two pieces of black in the middle belly are connected, which is intended to break off. If black should not make this move, the next white move can break two black pieces, and the two black pieces will only become one eye, and finally die of exhaustion. Black made a discs at the critical point and answered the move. The white piece will be robbed back, and the round of black will be robbed. Black thinks twice and makes a move at the second or fifth place in the introductory part, and if not, the next move is connected to the corner, and the white piece is bound to be broken. White jumped a disc at the bottom of the chess piece and answered the move. This goes back and forth several times, just as white is looking for a robbery, thinking for a long time, and merging a piece on the head of the first mid-belly tip. The old man of black chess has a tight face, no, the Central Plains is divided and eaten, even if the whale swallows the upper white chess dragon, black chess is not enough; if it does, the next round of robbery has been exhausted, and any place on the chessboard is landed, white chess will definitely ignore it, just do work, so auspicious and unpredictable. Chi Yushu is a little familiar with chess, and it is also difficult to see this, and I want to ask the old man who watches chess, that deer really knows how to watch chess.

Suddenly, I heard a voice shouting: "Yes, yes, you have no chance to win this game, just vote." The four of them looked at the place where the sound came from. But when I saw the one who came, he had a short figure, Lei Gong's face, pointed beak and pointed cheeks, and a pointed chin, all over his body were fine hair, his hands and feet, arms and legs, and tail were shriveled like dead branches, and he walked with a limp, a tiger skin around his waist, and an iron hoop on his head, and nothing else. Chi Yushu was horrified: "Could it be that a macaque has become a spirit? or run away!" After running a few steps, he didn't see the monster chasing after him, and his curiosity rose again, and he hid behind a tree to peep.

The three of them left the chess table early and stood up to greet each other, and the comer continued: "Brothers, my grandson is here to fight." Why do you look like this today? You also invited Furong to scatter people, but you avoided me?" The three of them said in unison: "If you are sharp-eyed, hehe, don't frighten him." Where did the great sage come from?" When I met Shudeng, I remembered that my friend had said that there was a stone monkey named "Monkey King", Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty in the Taishang Laojun gossip furnace to refine his fiery eyes, because of the trouble in the heavenly palace, he was pressed under the mountain by the Buddha, can he see the true face today? He suspected that he was in a dream, and reached out to twist his thigh, but he felt pain and did not wake up.

The visitor said, "I'm here to have fun with you." The old man said: "I heard that the great sage has entered the Buddha gate and protected Tang Seng to learn scriptures from the west, how can I have fun in idleness?" The three of them said: "Where is it, what are the difficulties, I hope to make it clear." The visitor said: "Because of the obstruction of passing by the Wuzhuang Temple of Wanshou Mountain." The three of them were surprised: "Wuzhuang Guan is the immortal palace of Zhenyuan Daxian, could it be that you stole his ginseng fruit?"

Chi Yushu can also be regarded as reading more than 10,000 volumes, but it is like falling into a fog. Next, I listened, probably the master and the younger brother were trapped in one place, and begged these three people to help heal a fruit tree, and these three people only said that there was no way, but they could also beg for mercy. I only heard the person who came say: "Thanksgiving, gratitude! "Say a somersault and ride a cloud up the sky.

(Note: The above four paragraphs are narrated with reference to "Journey to the West", and some words and sentences are from the original text)

Chi Yushu was stunned for a while, thinking that today was really an eye-opener, and he had only heard that he had never seen it in person. I listened to the old man of the black chess and said: "Is that thing done properly?" The old man of the white chess said: "It's all right, but this monk of the South China Sea saves the suffering every day, and works tirelessly between various continents, why is this matter alone lazy, and asks us to do it for me?" The old man who watched the chess said: "No family, no family, he is also entrusted by others." Hehe, it is said that this thing has a lot to do with the monkey, but the monk has a word first, this time only through the wind and rain, nothing else, not like the monkey's head, turning over the river and the sea into the sky and the earth, and full of difficulties. The old man of black chess said: "Not necessarily, if you only go through wind and rain, then how can the 'Heavenly Killing Star' return to its place?" The old man of white chess said: "There is a fixed number, there is a fixed number." The old man said: "Although there is one day in the mountain, it has been a thousand years in the world, you and I must hurry to the Wanshou Mountain, so as not to make the monkey's head bad in the future." An auspicious cloud lifted the three of them, along with the deer and the crane, and went westward.

Chi Yushu didn't know the truth, and moved out of the cave in a daze. As soon as I walked out of the cave, I felt that I was in a large hall. This big hall carved beams and painted buildings, magnificent, among the high platform more than half a zhang, on the carved dragon throne, behind the seat gold lacquer screen, left and right standing treasure elephant, Lu Duan, crane, incense tube. In the blink of an eye, I saw a person sitting on the seat, wearing a dragon robe and a golden crown. I don't know when, there were more than 100 people under the high platform, all dressed in court clothes, standing with their hands hanging on the left and right. There is a case between the two classes, and there are four treasures of the study. Seeing this situation, Chi Yushu thought: "It looks like a son of heaven, the military generals are in the court, but they are not Zhenguan, not to mention that the crown robe and track are not the order of this dynasty, and it is not like the palace of the imperial city of Chang'an." Could it be that I told the old man to return to his hometown, the news was blocked, and the dynasty had changed?" suddenly saw that he was also in the civil official class, and he was more and more surprised, and he didn't know why, and when he was about to ask the people around him, he suddenly felt that the palace was full of murderous atmosphere, and everyone was silent, so they abandoned this thought.

I heard the emperor say in a loud voice: "What about the sir." I saw two guards escort a man who looked like a Confucian into the hall. The man was not more than half a hundred, his neck and wrists were shackled by a pair of shackles, and his ankles were also shackled, making a "whooshing" sound. Even so, his face was pale, his eyes were quite disdainful, and he seemed to have infinite grief. The guard shouted, "Get on your knees." The emperor said sharply: "Why are you so rude to your husband? The guards were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly removed the torture equipment. The Confucian student lost his shackles, suddenly raised his finger and pointed at the emperor on the steps, and shouted: "Yan thief, you and others are in rebellion, and you are guilty of the following crimes, looking at your appearance, you must have violated the emperor's throne, do you know the guilt?" and pointed to the hundreds of officials in the palace and scolded: "You and other chaotic ministers and thieves, help the emperor to do evil, and have a face to breathe in the world, all of them should be self-controlled!" Chi Yushu heard this, thinking that this emperor seemed to be seeking a dynasty to usurp the throne, and this Confucian must belong to the old ministers of the previous dynasty, Su Confucian, and his words and deeds are quite loyal.

The emperor was slightly stunned, laughed a few more times, walked off the dragon bed and came to the Confucian student's side, and said softly: "Sir, what you said is not true, I am a respected ancestor to punish traitorous ministers, and the Duke of Fa Zhou is the king." After the death of King Wu, King Cheng ascended the throne at a young age, and Ji Dan, the regent of Zhou Gong Ji Dan returned to the throne after seven years, making a good story for the world. When the emperor said this, he compared the emperor of the previous dynasty to the king and himself to the Duke of Zhou.

The Confucian glanced at the emperor coldly and asked, "Where is King Cheng?" The emperor said: "I immolated myself in the palace and has been buried, if you don't believe it, you can ask the people in this palace." When the Confucian student heard this, he beat his chest on the ground and wailed, and the sound of sorrow shook the hall. He cried and scolded for a while, then stopped, got up and asked, "Why don't you become the son of the king?" The emperor seemed to expect him to ask this question, and smiled: "The country depends on the king." The Confucian snorted contemptuously: "It's nonsense, why don't you become the king's brother?" The emperor said angrily: "This is my family's business." The Confucian said hurriedly: "If it is an ordinary person, or an ordinary official and nobleman, it can be called a family matter." How can you call it a family affair if you are conspiring against him? How can you not be afraid of the ridicule of the people of the world?" Chi Yushu said in his heart: "This emperor compares himself to the Duke of Zhou, and he must be a blood relative of the emperor of the previous dynasty, and he rebelled and became the emperor. I also remembered that Emperor Zhenguan was also the emperor who killed his closest relatives, and he really couldn't escape the "ruthless emperor's family since ancient times".

The emperor laughed and said, "The world says that scholars are pedantic, and today I really see it." I have ascended to the throne, and this is the destiny of heaven. As long as you are willing to draft an edict for me to tell the world, not only can the name of the traitor be avoided, but also the clouds can rise to the top and bless the descendants. Don't waste your life and bring disaster to your wife and children. If Qi and Huang don't have such blessings as you, they will definitely die. Hearing this, the Confucian scholar slowly walked towards the case, and the emperor smiled slightly when he saw this, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were also relieved. Unexpectedly, as soon as the Confucian student arrived in front of the case, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked the desk chair to the ground, splashing ink on the body of others, and shouted: "How can the iron bones of loyal ministers be coerced by thieves? The emperor's face turned from joy to anger, and he threatened: "Aren't you afraid that I will destroy you?" The Confucian sneered, bit the index finger of his right hand, grabbed a piece of straw paper, and hurriedly wrote four blood-red characters, and threw them on the ground. I heard him say lightly: "Take it and tell the world." ”

Thinking that the emperor is already in the middle of nowhere, no one dares to oppose him, that Confucian will draft the edict, wait for the draft edict, and then exempt him, he will be grateful to Dade, and the people of the world will also feel that he is kind. Although the Confucian scholar is a gentleman, he is a strong man, and he will be called a thief in front of the Manchu Dynasty and humiliated in every way. He couldn't help but be patient with the gains and losses, and shouted: "Where are the guards in front of the palace? Take down this crazy life, and Ling Chi will be executed." Just now, the two guards stepped forward and held down the Confucian and were about to take him away.

At this moment, a person flashed out of the hundred officials, dressed in monk's clothes, with a crown and no hair, kneeling in front of the emperor, and hurriedly said: "Don't ...... it" Before he finished speaking, the Confucian said sharply: "Wu Na demon monk, the Buddha said that all living beings are good, don't slaughter living beings in vain, you and others helped the Yan thief to rebel, how many lives were ruined, and caused my emperor to self-immolate and collapse, but today you are hypocritical." As far as I'm concerned, that A-nose Hell has already left a vacancy for you, so let's go quickly, don't miss a good day. The emperor did not wait for the man to reply, and asked the Confucian scholar sharply: "You still can't see the things of the world clearly, what else do you say about the Abi Hell, the person you are loyal to in your heart, has not harmed anyone in your life? You said that he was not there in the Abi Hell? I also did it to protect myself that day, otherwise, I don't know who the burned person was." You might as well make it clear to you, since ancient times, the victors, princes, and the losers, the thieves, and we now hold the power of life and death, and we have endured and endured you again and again, if you change your mind at the moment, you can avoid death, if not, punish your nine clans. After hearing this, the Confucian first sneered a few times, and then laughed loudly: "Don't say that the Nine Clans, Yan Thief, what if you punish my Ten Clans." The emperor was furious and said fiercely: "Today I ...... I will punish you ten tribes. The intercessor took two steps forward and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, he intends to die, in order to fulfill his good name, and to trap His Majesty in injustice." What's more, if you kill him today, the seeds of reading in the world will be extinct, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice. Chi Yushu was shocked when he heard this, he didn't know who was so valuable, the emperor had to be on the throne, and if he killed him, he would cut off the seeds of reading in the world, and secretly wondered.

The emperor said disdainfully: "Laughing and talking, don't say that it will not be broken, even if it is cut off, what is it worth?" The person who pleaded for mercy had to say more, and suddenly saw that the emperor had a fierce look in his eyes, looked at himself viciously, hurriedly took two steps back, got up and returned to the class. The emperor looked around and said slowly: "If you want to die, it will be fulfilled by you, punish you outside the nine clans, and then destroy your Yousheng clan, which is exactly ten clans." The Confucian laughed wildly when he heard this: "The Yan thief really lives up to the rebels of the ages, carries the infamy of the ages, dares to carry out the strange punishment of the ages, and punishes the ten tribes, which has never happened in the eternals, if I become the first person to be punished by the ten clans, I will be able to be eternal, if I don't punish the ten clans, after the eons, I may not be able to leave a name through the ages, fortunately, fortunately." "This eternal theory is impassioned, and I met the admiration of Shu Dunsheng for a long time, and I just hope that the emperor will take back his life, and don't kill him.

The emperor sneered: "Don't be arrogant to those who sell their fame and reputation, and then send your wife and daughter to the sect as prostitutes." Hearing this, the Confucian scholar slowly turned around to face the sky outside the hall, raised his head and closed his eyes, and sighed: "Alas-" shed two lines of tears. The emperor said in a loud voice: "Come, pull out, Ling Chi will be put to death, and when the execution is carried out, the shackles will be displayed in the city to refrain from adultery." The Confucian didn't wait for the guards to step forward, stepped out of the hall, and said in his mouth: "The chaos from the sky knows the reason, and the traitor has to plan for the country......

The emperor shouted, "Pull it back!" The second guard hurriedly grabbed the Confucian student and dragged him back to the hall. The emperor paced two steps slowly, suddenly stepped forward, pulled out the steel knife at the waist of one of the guards, and said hatefully: "I cut your mouth first." Saying the horizontal oblique blade, luck in the wrist, the head of the knife pulled outward along the corner of the left mouth of the Confucian student, the Confucian "ah" sound, from the corner of the mouth to the left ear immediately opened a bloody mouth, revealing the red teeth in the mouth, the flesh and blood below the bloody mouth turned out, the blood was dripping, the chest was red, and everyone hid their eyes. The emperor threw down the steel knife and said with a sigh of relief: "Go." The guard hurriedly picked up the steel knife and put it into its sheath and carried the Confucian out of the hall.

The Confucian was in terrible pain, but he was still unyielding, and his thoughts did not stop, because he covered his left cheek with his hand, and his voice was not very clear, but he could also vaguely distinguish it: "The loyal ministers are angry and blood and tears exchange, so what do you want to be martyred......?

The emperor returned to the high platform, sat down in the throne, and looked down at everyone under the stage, who dared to look up. He sat there for a long time, and suddenly he was energetic again, and laughed a few times. The crowd was terrified, and they didn't know why he was laughing, but they heard him say, "Disperse." Someone said in a loud voice: "Retreat from the dynasty-" Chi Yushu Dengjue was relieved and let out a long breath.

After a while, everyone withdrew from the hall, Chi Yushu followed everyone out of the hall, thinking about the situation of the party, suddenly felt the foreign body on the chest swaying, and the right hand touched out and held it in the palm of the hand to take a closer look, it was a black and white two chess pieces, and the heart said: "When did there be these two more chess pieces on the body, could it really be in a dream? Or is it a ghost hitting the wall?" Thinking of this, he raised his left hand and slapped himself, only feeling dizzy and dizzy, and it took a while to stand up. Looking at the front again, it was replaced by two gates, and there seemed to be the sound of swords and soldiers inside, and the court clothes on the body were no longer there, and the clothes were ragged, and there was a beggar at the end.

Chi Yushu suddenly felt depressed, he has experienced a lot in the past half a day, and he has never understood the reason, and he doesn't know how to return home. staring at the two chess pieces at the door for a long time, he suddenly clenched his fists, turned around and walked wildly, and sang in a low voice: "Participating in business reappears in the world, and the opportunity for a thousand years of meritorious deeds." What is black and what is white, who can see the truth, I can't tell, I can't tell, I can't tell the truth, it's hundreds of years, alas, it's hundreds of years...... "It's drifting away."
