Wang Xiaoer drove the carriage driven by the black horse chasing the wind in Kunlun, and it took only five days to send Liu Sange and Ding Piaopeng to Kunming, Yunnan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info In Kunming, Liu Sange received a carrier pigeon from the old dragon's head, which read:

Brother Liu: After receiving the secret report of the helmsman of Dali, after investigation, it was found yesterday that the hand was sick and did not fall in Dali City, and it is estimated that he will go to Lijiang. After Nan Bu fell down, someone pretended to be a horse gang businessman to follow, and the younger brother quickly went to Dali to find the rudder blade rudder master, and the rudder will do his best to provide convenience, presumably he will be able to find Nan Bu in the near future, and Yu is waiting for good news in Nanjing. After the rest of the words, cherish the extra meal. Brother Lao Longtou Bai Yu. A certain day of the month.

This letter was sent two days ago, and it took two days for the carrier pigeon to be delivered to Liu Sange, and in addition to the yesterday mentioned in the letter, then he should have stayed in Dali four days ago, and did he stay in Dali? How many days did he stay? Or did he go to Lijiang on the same day? It is unknown, and he must now rush to Dali to divide the rudder, and when he gets there, the situation will naturally be clear.

Liu Sange and the other three only stayed in Kunming for one night, and the next day, just after dawn, after washing and eating, they set off again.

The carriage drove at a constant speed in the countryside, the road was wide and flat, and the suspension performance of the carriage was excellent, only slightly shaking, not bumpy. In Yunnan in autumn, the yellow leaves are scattered, the autumn chrysanthemums are bright, the fields are long, the streams and rivers are clear and blue, and the scenery is extraordinarily charming.

Ding Piaopeng sat in the carriage, leaning back in his chair, staring out the window with a dull gaze, as if he had fallen into endless mourning. Third Brother Liu sat on the seat of the car opposite him, holding a book, flipping through it, and when he looked up, he coughed when he saw him so distracted. Ding Piaopeng woke up from his thoughts, smiled, and asked, "Third brother, what's the matter?"

Third Brother Liu said, "Are you thinking about Xiao Tao?"

He bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

Third Brother Liu said: "It's not good to think too much, it hurts your body, you still have to mourn and change." ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "I know, but as soon as I calmed down, I thought, and when I think of her, I feel sad." I shouldn't have gone to see her, I hurt her. ”

Third Brother Liu said: "You can't blame yourself like this, it's actually human nature for you to go to see her." ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "I really regret it, but there is no regret medicine in the world;

Third Brother Liu said: "Piao Peng, how can you say that." You are a flying thief, righteous and cloudy, helping the people in danger and needy, and upholding justice for the rivers and lakes, how can you be so heroic and short of breath. “

Ding Piaopeng said: "The third brother is right, but the pain in my heart may never be erased." ”

Third Brother Liu said: "Believe me, the pain will subside, it will take time." ”

Ding Piaopeng sighed and shook his head.

Third Brother Liu said: "Piao Peng, be stronger! I advise you not to get along with the past, because the past has passed, and I also advise you not to get along with the present, because you still have to live now." ”

Ding Piaopeng nodded and said, "The third brother is right. Third brother, if my illness cannot be cured, please bring my bones back to my hometown. ”

Third Brother Liu said: "What are you talking about, it's unlucky, I don't listen." ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "I mean, really, please, I must bring my bones back to my hometown." ”

Third Brother Liu said: "Where is your hometown?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "Brother, my hometown is in Macheng, Hubei. Please bury me on the sunny slope of Guifeng Mountain in Macheng. Brother, Guifeng Mountain is so beautiful, in spring, the azaleas bloom all over the mountain, fragrant, I like Guifeng Mountain in spring the most. My home is in Dingjia Village at the foot of Guifeng Mountain, there is a small river at the entrance of the village, and there is a well at the door of the house,......"

As soon as he talked about his hometown, his eyebrows were filled with joy, and he was very forgetful, and he temporarily forgot his sadness and grievances, and the dusty and closed memory floodgates opened with a bang:

Dabie Mountain is like a giant dragon winding at the junction of Hubei, Henan and Anhui provinces, and Guifeng Mountain in Macheng County is one of the peaks at the southern foot of Dabie Mountain.

Guifeng Mountain is indeed like a big turtle that climbs into the sky, it holds its head high, towering under the canopy, it is so tall, so strange, sometimes hidden behind the clouds and mist, disappearing without a trace, sometimes standing under the white clouds and blue sky, its beauty and grandeur, delicately presented in front of you.

There is a village called Dingjia Village in the south of Guifeng Mountain, there is a clear river in front of the village, the back mountain is near the river, the scenery is beautiful.

Ding Piaopeng was born in this quiet village called Dingjia Village, his father is a private school teacher, teaching more than a dozen children to read and write, and planting a few acres of thin land to maintain the family's livelihood, and his mother spins and weaves at home and takes care of housework. Ding Piaopeng has four brothers and sisters, he is the youngest, he has two older brothers and one sister, because he is the fourth, the family calls him Ah Si.

The elder in the family is his grandmother, since he can remember, his grandfather has died, and his grandmother loves him the most, always secretly leaving him delicious food, and still pouting, waving his hands, asking him not to open up.

I remember when I was a child, my family was still in a good situation, and I could often eat fish. The father in the memory is a little serious, often with a straight face, meticulously taught him to read and write, but the mother is very kind, spoiled him, he is the youngest in the family, his brothers and sisters also protect him everywhere, occasionally, he fights with the neighbor's children, into trouble, the elder brother always treats him, for him to suffer from his father's board. The whole family treated him as a baby bump, and Ding Piaopeng's childhood before the age of six was full of sunshine and laughter.

When he was six years old, disaster struck.

That year, there was a great drought in Macheng, and there was a locust plague, and the crops in the field were not harvested. However, the government sent additional officials to the villages and towns to urge grain and rent. In order to keep the only dozens of catties of food at home, my father held the grain bag and bumped into the official for a few words, but he was beaten by the errand man who couldn't help but say a beating, and the mother stepped forward to stop her, and the official flew up and kicked her in the chest, kicking her to death on the spot. Grandma lay on the ground, crying and kowtowing to them and begging for mercy, and the errand boy gave up. Before leaving, the wolf-like servant took away the dozens of catties of life-saving rations.

Ding Piaopeng saw all this, he thought, when I grow up, I must take revenge, I must be angry with the poor, and I must kill all these inhuman things.

As a young man, with no fear but hatred, his eyes widened and his fists clenched, glaring at these inhumanizing beasts, his chest burning with rage.

Next, relying on her elderly grandmother and four children, she went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and pick tree bark to fill her stomach.

Ding Piaopeng watched his relatives pass away one by one. First was my father and mother, and three days later, they were hungry, angry and anxious, plus they were injured, they both whimpered, and their lives returned to Huangquan. When he died, his father's eyes were wide open, and Ding Piaopeng would never forget it.

With tears in her eyes, the grandmother took the children and rolled her son and daughter-in-law with a reed mat and buried them in the back of the house.

Grandma always cheered up the children and said: "You have to grit your teeth to live, no matter how difficult it is, you have to live, the Ding family depends on you, grit your teeth, don't be afraid, there is grandma." ”

After another five days, Ding Piaopeng woke up, pushed his brother and sister beside him, and found that the three of them were not moving, sleeping really dead, and hurriedly called grandma, grandma trembled and walked to the bedside, touched the nostrils of her brother and sister, shook her head, sobbed, and said, "Ah Si, my brother and sister are also gone, and I will accompany your father and mother." ”

With tears in her eyes, the grandmother took Ding Piaopeng and buried the three grandboys and granddaughters in a roll of reed mats and rags beside their parents.

For this old man and a young man who were starving to death, burying three people was not a simple matter, and they spent a whole day of hard work, so tired that they sat on the ground and couldn't get up for half a day.

Grandma said to him: "Don't be afraid, grit your teeth, there is grandma." The Ding family depends on you, Ah Si, you can't fall. ”

There are seven people in the family, and in a blink of an eye, there are only two grandmothers and themselves.

The young Ding Piaopeng tasted hunger too early, and in the bottom of his hungry heart, there were too many grievances and resentments.

I heard from adults that in Macheng County, the county officials and lords are still singing every night, with bright lights and wine, and living a life of flowers and wine. He doesn't care if the people have vegetables and the wild people are hungry.

The county magistrate is also surnamed Ding, called Ding Dazhi, and his hometown is also in Dingjia Village. He was born poor, smart and hardworking since childhood, is a good child, when he was a child, he also studied in his father's private school, later, he went to the county to study, went to the state capital to take the exam, and achieved excellent results in the imperial examination, and finally, he won the jinshi, and then went to Macheng to take office, and became a county official.

Shortly after taking office, he sat in a sedan chair and beat gongs and drums to go back to Dingjia Village once, and that glory made the whole village really excited for him for a while. After the county official took his father and mother away, he never came back.

Listening to adults, he has changed, he has become unrecognizable, he has become like another person.

He is more greedy than the previous county magistrate. He will also set up false accusations, defy his conscience, frame the good, and fabricate unjust, false and wrongly decided cases; he will especially dig out his mind to loot the people's fat and ointment, what is the seedling tax, the poll tax, the land tax, the mountain goods tax, the special product tax, the mining tax, the customs tax, the salt tax, the tea tax, the tobacco tax, the liquor tax, the fishing tax, the pawn tax, the stamp duty, the business tax, the public security tax, and the homespun silk goods tax...... There are so many names that there are too many to count; He used all his ingenuity and ingenuity to do evil deeds that were not seen by the people.

The county magistrate is particularly fond of dogs and horses, and there are seven aunts and wives alone. It is said that all the beautiful maids in his family were defiled by him, and they lived a life of extreme luxury, absurdity and shamelessness, as if they wanted to make up for all the hard lives they had before.

The county magistrate knocks out the bones and sucks the marrow of the people, exploits and cheats, and does not treat people as human beings. For the governor of the state government at the next higher level and other competent officials, it is another face: sloppy and slapping horses, exquisite, bribing the public bank, shameless, using silver to dot the joints everywhere, and doing everything possible to keep his black gauze hat. This black gauze hat really kept it for him.

Behind the scenes, the people of Macheng County scolded the county magistrate to the point of blood, and also scolded Dingjia Village, why did Dingjia Village under Guifeng Mountain have such a livestock!

My father used to say before his death: What's wrong with the surname Ding, I can't figure out how his heart will become so black! When he was young, he was a man with lofty ideals, and he longed for the former sage's "worries and worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world".

All this since he was a child made Ding Piaopeng full of extreme hatred for the government. He thought, why would the common people rather starve to death than rise up to rebel! Why don't we open the granary in Macheng County and distribute the grain to the people! If I grow up, I will definitely not wait to starve to death, and I would rather die in battle than starve to death! Killing one is enough, killing two to earn one.

Dad told him the stories of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. In the Qin Dynasty, several military captains escorted the soldiers to the border of Yuyang, in Daze Township, Qi County, due to heavy rain for several days, the itinerary was blocked, and it is estimated that the date of arrival in Yuyang will be delayed, and according to the Qin law, the delay will be beheaded. Chen Sheng, Wu Guang conspired with the soldiers, and instead of sitting and waiting to be killed, it was better to rise up and rebel. So, they killed the lieutenants, revolted, and everywhere they went, the poor peasants responded. Later, with Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, the peasant rebel army surged, and finally overthrew the rule of the tyrannical Qin.

Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Xiang Yu, and Liu Bang were heroes in his young mind. A manly man, who is going to die a vigorous death, how can he go to see Lord Yama silently, with his chest against his back! Unfortunately, he was too young at that time, and no one would pay attention to a yellow-mouthed child.

Dingjia Village was originally a large village where individuals thrived, but now, it has become a lifeless village.

After this natural and man-made disaster, most of the people died. The village is full of white spirit flags, burning paper money and ashes scattered with paper money, the elm trees in the village have all been stripped of their bark by people to satisfy their hunger, and on the dead branches of the elm trees, there are many crows parked, in this village, except for the crows "quack" There are no chickens, ducks, cats and dogs, no pigs, sheep, cattle and horses in the village, no laughter, not even crying, people are so hungry that they can't cry, people's sad eyes are so dry that they can hardly shed tears, hunger has exhausted people's essence and blood, and it is fortunate to have a breath.

Grandma was very thin, with a pouted mouth and a bent back, like a reed in the wind, but Grandma was really strong enough, she shook and shook in the wind, and she just wouldn't break.

One day, grandma couldn't get up, she was lying on the bed, hugging a strip of broken cotton wool,

smiled and said in a dumb voice: "Ah Si, grandma can't accompany you to Guifeng Mountain to dig wild vegetables today, grandma is a little tired." ”

Grandma's voice was so soft, but Ding Piaopeng could hear it, and he said, "Grandma, me."

Go by yourself, it's okay, I'm older. ”

Grandma said: "Yes, our Ah Si is a man, but you have to be careful."

Ah, I heard that some people are hungry, so they 'cannibalize each other'. ”

Ding Piaopeng asked: "What is 'Yizi cannibalism'?"

The grandmother said, "It is to swap your own children with other people's children, and eat them to satisfy your hunger." Sins and sins, what a sin, Ah Si, you see someone, but if you want to run away, don't let him get close. ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "Grandma, I remember, don't worry, I run fast, they can't catch me." When I arrived at Guifeng Mountain, I was lucky, and I was able to pick a wild fruit and come back to satisfy my grandmother's hunger. ”

Grandma's eyes moistened, touched his head, and said: "Ah Si is good, Ah Si is a rabbit leg, bad guys can't catch my Ah Si, God, bless Ah Si of the Ding family, please, my old woman has lived enough, it doesn't matter if she leaves one day, you can bless my Ah Si, the Ding family is the only seedling." ”

Ding Piaopeng wiped away her grandmother's tears and said, "Grandma doesn't cry, Ah Si will come when she goes, don't cry, be strong." ”

Grandma said: "Okay, I won't cry, Ah Si, you bring the sickle, so you can defend yourself." ”

Ding Piaopeng picked up the sickle and basket in the corner of the wall and left.

In autumn, the autumn breeze brings coolness, rolling the fallen leaves all over the ground, and some wild chrysanthemums bloom sparsely on Guifeng Mountain. The people on the mountain road were silent, Ding Piaopeng was searching for wild vegetables on the side of the road, in fact, the wild vegetables on the side of the road had been dug up by the nearby villagers, and he didn't see the wild vegetables after walking for a long time, he was so tired that he sat on the hillside and sighed, he couldn't go home empty-handed, grandma was hungry, as long as there was food, he would be able to get up tomorrow. He's in a hurry.

At this moment a fat hare ran up to him, and looked at him with red eyes, and he was overjoyed, and thought to himself, If I could catch the hare, and save some food, I would be able to eat with my grandmother for many days.

He slowly adjusted his sitting position, and pounced on the hare, but the hare got out from under him, fled a foot away, squatted, scratched his ears with his hind legs, and still looked at him with red eyes, as if to say, "You want to catch me, no way, don't believe me." ”

Ding Piaopeng said in his heart, wow, then let's try it and see who can win. He got up and patted his trouser legs, and suddenly he sprang into the air, and grabbed the rabbit with both hands at the same time, and the rabbit, who was about to be captured by him, broke free from between his hands, and fled a foot away, squatting, tilting his head, and watching his jokes.

Ding Piaopeng is also more energetic, and said in his heart, we are all consumed today, and you don't have any run. This time, he picked up the scythe on the ground and rushed forward as fast as he could, and the rabbit turned and ran, perhaps, the rabbit thought that people could not outrun themselves, and besides, it was a child, so it was playing with it.

Unexpectedly, the kid ran so fast, several times he overtook him, ran to the head, the sickle in his hand almost scratched himself several times, fortunately he would suddenly turn around and change direction, otherwise, he would have died a long time ago, no, not fun. Eventually, the rabbit jumped onto a rock, ready to slip away, and as long as he jumped off the rock, it was a rugged bird path, and people could not chase it.

Ding Piaopeng stood still, he knew that if he rushed up again, the rabbit would slip away, and after tossing for so long, he was so tired that he was panting, and he was about to go blind. If you want him to stop here, it's really a little unwilling.

Suddenly, he noticed a brown cloud floating in the mountains, and the cloud swept over the rocks, and the rabbit disappeared, and the cloud floated up to a pine tree by the roadside.

On the branches of the pine tree sat an old man in a brown robe, who was thin, with white hair, bright eyes, a burden on his back, a long sword at his waist, and a hare in his hand, laughing, and saying, "Haha, good, good, you boy is a natural Scud, and he runs faster than a rabbit." Kid, do you want this hare?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "I want to." ”

The old man said, "What do you want?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "Eat." ”

The old man said, "That's not good, what a lovely hare, I thought you were going to take it home and raise it to play." He stroked the rabbit's head with his hand.

Ding Piaopeng said: "My grandmother is about to starve to death, if you don't eat it, what will you eat." ”

The old man said: "You are quite filial, who else is there in the family?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "It's just me and grandma left, and the others are all dead and starving." ”

The old man said, "Is there really such a thing?

Ding Piaopeng said: "It's not just my family who deceives you, it's not just my family who starved to death, there are many, I can't count them, you are probably not a local." ”

The old man said: "Yes, I came from the northern slope of Dabie Mountain, Xinyang, Henan, and this is Macheng, Hubei." ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "It's Guifeng Mountain in Macheng." ”

The old man noticed the child's yellow-skinned appearance and asked, "Oh, Guifeng Mountain, this mountain looks like a big turtle." Kid, are you hungry?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "Hungry, hungry and growling." ”

The old man took out a steamed bun from his bosom, threw it to him, and said, "Eat." ”

Ding Piaopeng picked up the steamed bun and was about to eat it, but put it on the ground again, and said, "I don't dare to eat it." ”

The old man said, "Why?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "I'm afraid that there is a drug in the steamed bun, and I will faint after eating it, and when I pass out, you will eat me." ”

The old man shook his head when he heard this, and said, "Little baby, why do you have such messy thoughts, has there been a case of cannibalism recently?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "Yes, Yi Zi cannibalism." He remembered his grandmother's words.

The old man's face was full of sorrow, shaking his head and sighing, he waved his sleeve, and the person was like a floating cloud, swept obliquely to Ding Piaopeng's side, picked up the steamed bun on the ground, took a bite, chewed and swallowed, and said: "You don't feel at ease this time? Look, I ate it, I didn't faint, did you? Do you want me to eat two more bites?"

Ding Piaopeng jumped up, snatched the steamed bun from the old man's hand, and said, "Don't, if you eat it again, the steamed bun will be gone." He greedily took a bite of the steamed bun, and swallowed it without a few bites. Looking at the steamed bun in his hand again, he was reluctant to eat it, and carefully hid it in his arms.

The old man asked, "Hey, why don't you eat it?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "I want to take it home and give it to my grandmother." ”

The old man said: "What a filial baby, I still have it, you can eat it." He took out another steamed bun from his arms and handed it to Ding Piaopeng, who took out half of the steamed bun in his arms and ate it, eating it so fragrantly.

After eating the steamed buns, he seemed to remember something, and he didn't thank him, and ran away with a smoke, and the old man was puzzled and shouted: "Little friend, what are you running?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "Grandma said, don't get close to strangers, strangers will eat me." I remember. ”

The old man said: "What a child, can you outrun me, I am up and down, right in front of your head, believe it or not?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "I don't believe it. With that, he turned and ran down the hill, and the basket was gone.

A brown cloud swept over his head, silently, and fell on the mountain road, the old man held the hare, and blocked his way with a smile, Ding Piaopeng was stunned, and asked, "Can you fly?"

The old man said: "No, I'm just a little good at light work." ”

The old man doesn't seem to have any malice, he doesn't seem to want to eat people, and besides, he can't run if he wants to, so he doesn't seem to be a bad person. He thought that if he had this light skill, how good it would be, and none of the hares and pheasants in the mountains would run away. He said: "Grandpa, I want to learn light skills, you teach me, okay?"

The old man said: "Ordinary people can't learn. ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "I'm not an ordinary person, I can learn, really." ”

The old man said, "Then, I want to see your feet?"

Ding Piaopeng mentioned the feet of the black and slippery and wearing straw sandals, and said, "If you are not afraid of the smell, just look at it." ”

The old man really squatted down, grabbed his feet, and looked at them: the toes are long and restrained, the arches of the feet are bent, the feet and necks are thin, the muscles of the calves, legs and stomachs are bulging and very elastic, the two legs are straight and slender, and the body shape is excellent, reaching the standard of three long and one small, that is: long hands and long feet, long neck, long head, such a body type is the best choice for learning light skills, on the body shape and two legs of this doll, if you train the law, in the future, you will definitely be above me. Seeing that the old man secretly marveled in his heart, it was simply a flawless white bi, this is a miracle of creation, he searched all over the country, searched everywhere, searched for a lifetime, and finally found it now. However, no matter how good the talent is, if you are unwilling to work hard, it will be in vain.

Ding Piaopeng said: "Grandpa, have you seen enough? A pair of stinky feet, what is there to look at." ”

The old man stood up and said quietly: "Judging from your feet, it's so-so, it's okay, but it's a very difficult thing to learn light skills, and you can't take it down without eight or nine cold and summer." ”

Ding Piaopeng was in trouble and said, "So speaking of which, you have to practice for ten years?"

The old man said, "It may not be enough. ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "I'm not afraid of suffering, I just can't leave my grandma, grandma is old, I have to take care of her." ”

The old man said: "What a filial baby, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, I will stay at your house, teach you, teach you, and then I will leave." ”

Ding Piaopeng jumped up happily and said: "Grandpa, great, then I will worship you as a teacher, I am not afraid of hardship, my father said, only if you suffer hardship, you will become a master." ”

The old man asked, "What is your father doing?"

Ding Piaopeng: "He is a private school gentleman, the most learned person in Dingjia Village, and several Jinshi and Juren from the village were all his students when they were young. Whenever the village chief encountered a problem, he consulted with him. ”

The old man said, "Are you good at reading?"

Ding Piaopeng lowered his head and said, "I don't read well, I am playful, disobedient, and often make my father angry." Now that I think about it, it shouldn't be. ”

The old man smiled: "Learning light skills is the same as reading, you can't be greedy for fun, and children who are greedy for play can't learn well." ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "I know, I will study hard." Dad said that if the young man does not work hard, the boss will be sad. ”

The old man said: "Then, okay, let's go home, start from Ming'er, and learn light skills." ”

After a while, Ding Piaopeng pulled his head down again and said, "However, I don't have anything to eat at home, grandpa, you will starve to death, you better go, starve to death of you, that's not good." ”

The old man laughed, "I'm starving? He picked up a pebble on the ground and said, "Look, on the road ahead, there is a pheasant, is it fat?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "Fat is fat, but you can't catch it." ”

The old man's arm was raised, and the pebble "roared", and flew out, hitting the pheasant in the head, and the pheasant immediately fell to the ground, flapping its wings and struggling on the ground.

Ding Piaopeng was overjoyed, ran over and grabbed it in his hand, today, it's time to have a good tooth sacrifice.

The old man said, "Children, let's go home." ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "Okay, great, thank you grandpa, my grandma was saved, with steamed buns and pheasants, grandma will be saved." ”

The old and the young, talking and laughing, accompanied back to Dingjia Village. Pushing open the door, Ding Piaopeng shouted: "Grandma, we have something delicious, guess, what are we going to cook today?" He put the pheasant behind his back and asked grandma to guess, he thought, grandma must not guess. But let him shout out his throat, grandma is still sleeping, grandma can't wake up, Ding Piaopeng is most afraid of not waking up, dad can't wake up, dead, brother and sister can't wake up, also dead, grandma can't wake up today? He threw down the pheasant, pounced on grandma, shook grandma, burst into tears, and shouted heartbreakingly, but grandma still didn't wake up, grandma left, grandma left me and left, grandma starved to death. Ding Piaopeng cried so much that he fainted.

When he woke up, he saw the old man holding himself in his arms, sitting on a chair, with an oil lamp lit on a broken table, and a large pot of cooked pheasants on the table.

The old man said: "Children, don't cry, okay, when you cry, I want to cry too, my heart is really uncomfortable, let's not cry, okay." ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "Okay, I don't cry. Tears flowed again.

The old man wiped away his tears and said, "A man bleeds without tears." What's your name?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "Ding Piaopeng." I was the fourth in my family, and my family called me Ah Si. Grandpa, what's your name?"

He suddenly remembered that he didn't even know the name of the old man, so he asked. The old man said: "My name is Fei Zushi, and the people on the rivers and lakes call me 'Tianshan Pengxian'." ”

Ding Piaopeng broke free from the old man's hands, knelt on the ground, tom, knocked his head three times in a row, and said: "My father has told me a lot of stories about you, robbing the rich and helping the poor, and the ancestor of Tianshan Pengxian Fei, who walked on the wall, I have dreamed of the ancestor more than once." Who would have thought that today I would get my wish, and the ancestor was on top, and I was worshiped by the apprentices. ”

Ancestor Fei hurriedly helped the apprentice up, and the master and apprentice were very happy.

The next day, after burying his grandmother's body, Ding Piaopeng went to Tianshan with Patriarch Pengxian Fei of Tianshan to learn art.

Fourteen years later, Ding Piaopeng Yicheng went down the mountain and returned to Macheng, he was already a handsome young man of twenty years old.

That year, Macheng had another great drought, and the people had vegetables, and the wild people were hungry.

The county magistrate of Macheng County is still Ding Dazhi, he is still the same, blindly exploiting and oppressing the people.

That night, Ding Piaopeng and eighteen young adults gathered in the City God Temple to plot a rebellion. Eighteen young and middle-aged men are covered with black cloth on each side, each of them is numbered, one person is one, and the number 1-18 is written on the clothes on the chest and back with white paint, so that it is convenient to command and greet on the spot. Afterwards, it was also convenient for the eighteen heroes to escape and fly away. This is the meaning of Ding Piaopeng.

And he himself is not masked, he wants to attract the attention of catching fast to himself: Lao Tzu does not change his name, he does not change his surname, his surname is Ding, his name is fluttering, he is a single, he is not afraid of the sky, he is not afraid of the earth, he is from Dingjia Village, Macheng County, the Macheng riot, it is Ding Ye who picks the head, and if he has the ability, he will come to find Lao Tzu Ding Asi.

Ding Piaopeng led eighteen heroes and villagers, lit torches, rushed into the county government, killed the recalcitrant officials and soldiers, captured the county commander Ding Dazhi, opened the county government and the Ding family's treasury, took the gold, silver, treasures, silk and satin, and divided them, and opened the granary of the county government, and distributed all the grain to the poor people who were waiting to be fed.

In the end, a fire burned down the county government and the mansion of the county commander Ding Dazhi.

He stood on the stage, under the stage were thousands of poor people holding torches, the county magistrate Ding Dazhi was tied up, kneeling beside him, not far behind him, was the county government blazing fire, the fire illuminated his face, Ding Piaopeng said: "Folks, today, we are proud of it, over the years, the people of Macheng have been oppressed by the government, especially the county lord surnamed Ding, called every day should not be, called the earth is not spiritual, today, the dog official surnamed Ding, it is time to pay the price for everything he has done." ”

After speaking, he pulled out his long sword and slashed at Ding Dazhi's neck, blood splashed, Ding Dazhi's head fluttered, and fell on the stage, Ding Piaopeng grabbed the head of the county master, raised it high, and said: "See, everything tonight is done by me alone, and I have nothing to do with others." My name is Ding Piaopeng, nicknamed Ah Si, if the government investigates it, everything will be pushed on me, and it has nothing to do with everyone. Those bitches raise servants to catch fast, if there is a species, you should come to me, if you bite and climb, be careful of his dog's head. Wait a while, the head of the dog official Ding Dazhi, I will hang it on the city tower at the south gate to show the public, and within half a month, it is not allowed to take it off and bury it, tell his family and relatives and friends, and tell the new county commander that if he dares to take off the head in advance, Lao Tzu will also ask for his dog head. Folks, you say, okay?"

The villagers cheered in unison: "Good!"

The bloody head of the county commander Ding Dazhi really hung on the tower of the South Gate for half a month.

Since then, Ding Piaopeng's chivalrous deeds have spread all over the country......

The carriage traveled on the way to Dali, and Ding Piaopeng recounted his life experience, sometimes grief-stricken, sometimes indignant, he almost forgot where he was, and he had forgotten what he was going to do.

Liu Sange said: "Since then, your name has spread all over the rivers and lakes, done a lot of chivalrous things, and become a legendary hero in people's hearts." ”

Ding Piaopeng said: "Actually, there are many cases that I didn't do. People couldn't find the perpetrators, so they put those things in my name, and in some cases, the people involved were afraid of causing trouble, so they left behind the bloody words 'Ding Asi, the perpetrator has nothing to do with others', and naturally the account was settled on me again. Fortunately, those bloody cases killed corrupt officials and bullies with great public anger. I bear it, I bear it, I promise it in front of others, and I never shirk the committee. It's not to seek fame, but to take responsibility for the hero who committed the crime, so that he can live a peaceful life. ”

Third Brother Liu said: "Good job, brother." Did you choose the name of this 'fluttering peng' yourself, or did you take it from Lord Lingzun?"

Ding Piaopeng said: "It was taken by my father, and on the day I was born, my father wrote a poem, two of which were: 'That is, if your life is like a fluttering peng, you will not change your infatuation for the common people.'" He thought it was a good sentence, and he was very proud, so he named my name 'Piao Peng'. ”

Third Brother Liu said: "Your father's name is really good and appropriate. ”

Ding Piaopeng said with a smile: "Dad is the most learned person in Dingjia Village." ”
