Chapter 34 The Hundred Schools of Thought
It turned out that Xu Cheng's predecessors were from the Mo family, which I never expected. But how did a disciple of the Mo family go to the farmhouse, but why did he start the Yellow Turban Uprising?
I forcibly suppressed the surprise in my heart and asked for advice from the Mo family. It seems that the answer to all this will have to be found in him. Juzi looked at him left and right, and said, "This matter must be decided today." He instructed his disciples, "Go and invite Miss Xu Qianxue to come." ”
After a short time, Xu Qianxue also came to Juzi's bedroom. The big man gave her a seat and told us the story of "a hundred schools of thought". He said slowly:
"It has been more than 400 years since Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, rebelled and overthrew the tyranny of the Qin Dynasty. In the past 400 years, the Legalists have been expelled, and the Zongheng family has not seen the end of the Shennong, and there are only three families left in the hundreds of sons: Mo, Taoism, and Confucianism. Confucianism since the first generation of the grandmaster Lu Guo Confucius was known as the "sage", Confucianism has been spread for hundreds of years, during the period of continuous development and growth, Emperor Wu Dong Zhongshu and proposed to 'depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism', the great Confucianism of the world is also a momentary scene; The understanding is different, divided into the Heavenly Sect and the Human Sect, and since then it has been fighting endlessly, and the Taoists have no intention of national affairs, and have become 'famous masters' who have no quarrel with the world. ”
"And my Mo family has always advocated 'non-attack', 'honest love', and 'Shangxian', and my Mo family can be seen everywhere in the past hundred years. Although the traces of the Mo family are hidden, there are many talents of the Mo family, such as Zhou Yafu who quelled the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, Zhang Qian and Su Wu who sent an envoy to the Western Regions, etc., all of whom are from my Mo family. In the past few hundred years, the Mojia organ city has always been impregnable, not because it is unbreakable, but because the Mojia people in the court deliberately maintain it. However, in recent years, the world has been peaceful, and it is difficult for the Mo family to make great achievements after all, and they have been silent. ”
At this time, Juzi sighed, and then said: "Xu Cheng worshipped me as a teacher when he was a teenager, and followed me in this Mo family for nearly 20 years. But he was clever but was mistaken by his cleverness, thinking that the court was unrighteous to the people, and the court was chaotic and the ministers were in charge, so why couldn't he raise an army? I gave him a hard lesson, but I didn't expect him to betray his master, pretend to be a farmer, and single-handedly launched the Yellow Turban Uprising. How fallacious is that everyone in the world only knows Zhang Jiao but does not know that he has committed any crimes! Zhang Jiao was born in the common people, and how could he have the wisdom to call on the whole world to rebel? In fact, apart from his own troops and horses, it was very difficult for Zhang Jiao to command the rest of the Yellow Turban Army, thus creating the false impression that the Yellow Turban Army was scattered. And it is precisely the peasant family, which has been deeply rooted for more than 800 years, and is the driving force behind the chaos in the world. Many of the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army are from peasant families, not Zhang Jiao's subordinates, Miss Xu, am I right or not?"
Xu Qianxue nodded and said, "That's right." ”
When I heard him talk about Zhang Jiao, I took out the book "Taiping Techniques" from my arms and said, "They all say that Zhang Jiao has witchcraft, but I see that this "Taiping Techniques" is simply an ordinary Taoist book."
"Haha, sorcery is just a myth. When martial arts reach a certain level, they can naturally call for wind and rain. But that horn, for the sake of the Yellow Turban Uprising, broke through the realm to the vertical and horizontal realm, and later just went mad and died violently. However, did Xu Prisoner give Shaoxia another thing before he died?"
I knew he was talking about the "Xuantie Order", this heavy black token, which was quite chilling in his arms. I took it out and handed it to Juzi, he took a look at it and said, "Shaoxia has "Taiping Technique", and he should be a descendant of Taiping Dao." As soon as the two Zhang Jiao brothers died, the Yellow Turban Army naturally had no leader, but the peasant family was hiding behind it, but it was inconvenient to directly lead the Yellow Turban Army. Naturally, it is more justifiable to assist Zhang Jiao's successor to be the leader of the Yellow Turban Army. ”
"How did the senior know that his heir was me?" I couldn't help but widen my eyes when I heard him say so wonderfully.
"This is going to ask Miss Xu Qianxue. ”
"What's so strange about this, Zhang Jiao passed on your Taiping Dao in his dying dream, and naturally he could also tell my father who was his heir. Xu Qianxue said, "It's just that my father and I have always been puzzled, why is it you who Zhang Jiao selected?"
"I don't know why. I replied honestly. To be honest, I really have no strengths other than being able to play a few big knives and be quite handsome.
"Zhang Jiao broke through the vertical and horizontal realm at the last moment, since he chose you, he naturally has his reasons. But the old man had a word, and asked Duan Shaoxia and Miss Xu to listen to it. ”
"Senior, please speak. ”
Juzi got up and said: "Since the Yellow Turban Uprising, the states of the world have been in turmoil, and millions of people have been killed. And among the people, there was no approval of the uprising. It took a long time, so that the people had more flesh and blood separation, and their wives separated. Since the two are now the actual leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, why not disband the Yellow Turban Army and surrender to the imperial court is also a great good deed. ”
I looked at Xu Qianxue, but Xu Qianxue was silent.
"Juzi senior, the junior had no intention of leading the Yellow Turban Army, since the senior said so, then I will hand over this Xuantie order to the senior. The Yellow Turban Army is fighting or peace, and the seniors are also invited to call the shots. "I picked up the Darkiron Order and handed it to Juzi.
"What does Miss Xu think?" Juzi didn't accept the Xuantie order, but asked Xu Qianxue.
"Everything is up to you. Xu Qianxue said. It's just that there was a fierce killing intent in her eyes.
"That's very good. Then I will send people to contact the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army in the near future and persuade them to surrender as soon as possible, so that they can unload their hometown and reunite with their families. Juzi laughed.
※※※
Xu Qianxue excused herself from being unwell, so she retired first. Juzi and I had a deep conversation for a long time, some anecdotes and gossip news, I naturally inquired a lot, and before I knew it, it was late at night. That's why we went back to rest. I thanked Juzi again and left. Sending me back was the Mo family branch hall master hammer, with a hundred or ten pounds of barbed hammer in his hand, he walked in front, I walked behind, but I always wanted to compete with him, whether his hammer was heavier, or my dragon slaying knife was more weighty.
After a few corners, a young man in black clothes and a black face chased after him and said, "Iron Hall Master, I have finally found you, you see that it is dark this day, and there is no trace of them on the hill, could it be that something really happened? Everyone has been looking for them for so long and still haven't found them, could it be that they have been eaten by wild beasts!"
"Heizi, you kid doesn't talk nonsense, there's no reason for Duan Shaoxia to laugh! You say Xiaoshan is like you, and you're still afraid of a jackal and wild dog? Besides, if Xiaoshan is not good, the second dog is not so easy to deal with! Don't be lazy, look for it again!"
The black man muttered, "Don't worry, hall master, that Xiaoshan and I are like brothers, I will definitely find them!" As I was talking to myself, I suddenly smelled a sour smell, so I stopped and asked, "Iron Hall Master, do you smell any peculiar smell?"
A Momen disciple on the side of the sunspot said: "I see it's the smell of the sunspot, how many days have you not taken a bath?"
"Okay, you mule, do you have a bath?" Kuroko got this title because of his dark skin, and he didn't want to be ridiculed by Luo Zi, so his face turned red. was about to argue with Luo Zi, when he suddenly saw the hammer make a silent movement.
I listened closely, but I didn't notice anything. But at this moment, the sledgehammer of the iron hammer suddenly struck a "stone throwing for directions", and went, only to see that the hammer handle was connected with the iron chain, and this time it went out to hunt with a sound, and the iron chain was driven by the "rope" sound. With a "crash", the hammer smashed on a tree, and immediately something was startled and jumped out of the grass, and it was dark, and it was not clear whether the thing was a man or a beast, but he moved quickly, and disappeared into the depths of the woods in a leap!
"Chase!" shouted Hammer. At that moment, several of us tried to catch up, but we never found the black shadow again, and after chasing for a long time, there seemed to be grass and trees in front of us, and the hammer threw the hammer into the unknown darkness in front of us again, but this time nothing was hit.
They were familiar with the hammer, and they took the crooked shortcut to walk, and it didn't take long for it to open up completely, and in the middle of a huge field, there was only a towering dead tree. When we arrived, several crows with hoarse cries were frightened into the distance, and everyone was also startled, and looked up, only to see the corpses of two people hanging on top of the dead tree.
They must have been tortured and interrogated before their deaths, and their bodies were covered in blood. His face was pale and terrifying, like a lonely ghost. I once heard Xiao Hanyi say that the Mo family has very strict rules, the law of the Mo, the murderer dies, and the wounder is punished, I don't know why these two people were killed here.
Suddenly, I only heard the sunspot on the side shouting: "Iron Hall Master, that's Xiaoshan and Ergou!" Iron Hammer took a closer look when he heard this, and sure enough, the two people hanging on the tree were the two Mo family disciples who had disappeared and had not returned. A wave of anger rose in Hammer's heart, and he roared loudly into the night sky!
At this moment, a black shadow quickly jumped out, flashed, his body was elegant like a ghost, we didn't have time to react, but we saw the mule on the side covering the neck, and blood spurted out.
"Mule?" exclaimed, Kuroko helped the companion. But the shadow did not answer, but stood three feet away and looked at us coldly, like a beast peeking at its prey in the dark night. The hammer was already furious, and without asking, he swung the hammer and slammed it down on the man.
The master of the Mo family hall really deserves his reputation, although this hammer wields a hundred and ten catties of sledgehammer as a weapon, but it is offensive and defensive, which can not only attack the enemy, but also protect the vital points of the whole body. The man used a dagger, and naturally he had to get close to the hammer, and the hammer used his divine power to swing the chain sledgehammer, forming a circle, and the black-clothed assassin was unable to get close for a while. I saw that the hammer was so powerful that it would not dry up for a while, and at the moment it was just a hand on the hilt, waiting to fight at any time.
The man in black didn't dare to touch the hammer, and circled around the dead tree. After another twenty or thirty moves, suddenly, I saw the man in black kick his feet, like an arrow from the string sticking to the ground to attack the defensive circle of the hammer, I secretly shouted "not good", and was about to go to the rescue, but the change was sudden, the man in black flashed the chain of the hammer, and a dagger pierced his heart.
Blood splattered, and I could see it, but it was the hammer that grabbed the dagger in his hand, allowing it to penetrate his palm. The black-clothed assassin was stunned, he didn't expect this rough-looking man to have such a careful mind, and just as he was thinking about it, he saw that the hammer had already grabbed the shoulder of the man in black and slammed him to the ground. His arm strength is more than a thousand pounds, and the force of this fall is a steel and bronze man, and he will be broken up.
But the man in black paused for only a few seconds, then sprang up like a tanuki and disappeared into the woods. The hammer tried to chase it, but after only two steps, he stumbled and fell to the ground, and I grabbed his palm and looked at it, and there was a trickle of black blood flowing out of it.
"Dagger poison!" I shouted. Over there, Kuroko was holding the body of the mule, already frightened in the local area.
