readx;? From Yiyang to the Zhongdu Daxing Palace, about more than 2,000 miles, if Cen Qing is now galloping with all his strength, the time for a stick of incense can arrive, even if he carries Zhang Yu, it will not take a few hours. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In the past three years, Gao has been used to coming and going, and Cen Qing has walked on the ground with Zhang Yu unusually. Although they were walking, the figures of the two of them were like streamers passing through the field, and they disappeared in a blink of an eye, leaving the windless grass tips and branches.

This road is fertile for thousands of miles, and there are no high mountains to block it, but most of the farmland along the way is abandoned, and only in large towns and cities are there acres of land. The people I saw along the way were all hungry and panicked, and when they came forward to ask, they said that there had been a big war outside for three years, and the taxes and labor were miserable. It wasn't until he went to the state and county to arrest a county order and slaughtered the centurion who was skinning people in front of him that he asked about the current situation in the world.

It turned out that not long after Cen Qing left Lin'an, the Great Song Dynasty began a comprehensive northern expedition to the Jin State without declaring war. When the Jin State counterattacked, the Song army was immediately defeated and returned, making the Jin people almost think that there was some conspiracy. Later, it was discovered that the generals of the left and right armies within the Song army were not in harmony, internal and external strife, and even the Jin people had not counterattacked, and the Song army was already in chaos.

After that, the two sides began a three-year tug-of-war, when the war was peaceful, at this time the Jin State entered the Central Plains not long after, the internal primitive tribal leaders and the Song people surrendered to the internal fighting, the emperor was busy balancing his courtiers, temporarily unintentional. And the Great Song Dynasty was even more uncompetitive on the battlefield, occasionally convulsing and bravely advancing for a while, and then continued to rout soon after, losing all the ground.

"The war is all about food, and my county commander is stripped every day so that he can only wear patched clothes. The Han county commander was aggrieved, thinking that Cen Qing and Zhang Yu were warriors who came from the Great Song Dynasty to do chivalrous and righteous deeds, and flattered, "I also look forward to Wang Shi Beiding the Central Plains as soon as possible, and I can also hold high the banner of righteousness and welcome Wang Shi into the city." ā€

"Sneer......"

Cen Qing didn't speak, Zhang Yu sneered, and a sword resulted in the county order, and then broke through the wall and found more than 10,000 taels of silver, which were wrapped in Cen Qing's sleeves and put away.

"Even if I spill all this money on the street, no one will dare to rob you believe it or not?" Cen Qing suddenly remembered a movie he had watched, and couldn't help but say to Zhang Yu.

"I don't believe ......"

"Then let the knives and guns fly for a while. ā€

After Cen Qing finished speaking, he scattered the broken silver and copper coins along the road outside the county office, and pretended to leave with Zhang Yu, and sure enough, no family dared to go out to get a penny until it was dark.

"Why?"

"They were afraid that whoever dared to show his face and take the silver and copper coins would have to die with his whole family, and if he wanted to take it, he could only take it at night. Cen Qing didn't intend to tell her about clan class or anything like that, it was knowledge that she couldn't understand, and he was just thinking about it randomly, and he didn't think about changing anything.

The next morning, the streets were clean and clean, like dogs had licked them.

After a while, the chief of the army with pigtails led his troops down the street to break down the doors, killing and robbing, and taking more property.

"It is human nature to be weak and dare not resist, or to endure humiliation and live secretly, or to wait for someone to raise their arms and cry out, or to look forward to a savior falling from the sky. Cen Qing said to Zhang Yu, "Do you know why?"

"Why?"

"It's because they have gods and Buddhas in their hearts that they become weak! Because when they are oppressed, they always think that things won't go on badly, that those who do bad things will be punished, and they won't let you go in the next life......" Cen Qing spread his hands, "However, it's useless." ā€

"But I want to help them......" Zhang Yu couldn't help but reddened his eyes when he saw those golden soldiers cut down the residents and dragged a girl who was not dressed to walk into the distance.

"Go ahead, as long as you have the right mind. ā€

Cen Qing knew that according to the laws of the Jin State, such a case of killing the Jurchen generals and soldiers in the garrison was generally at the cost of slaughtering the surrounding Han people. But he didn't tell Zhang Yu, but another thought was about to move.

-- Let's play a big one!

Zhang Yu walked back with red eyes, and sure enough, the woman saw that her parents were dead, and knew that she had no luck, so she took the waist knife of the soldier who died on the ground and committed suicide.

"Am I doing something wrong?" she asked Cen Qing in a slurch.

"You're not wrong, it's the world that's wrong. Cen Qing said with a smile, the woman could have survived strongly, and she survived wonderfully, but she still chose to commit suicide, which was the wrong choice brought to her by this world.

"But if we don't come and kill this official...... Wouldn't these things have happened?" Zhang Yu still couldn't let go.

"Very well, you made me think about cause and effect again. Cause and effect, but there is a critical step missing in the middle, choice. Cen Qing said, "We set off from Yiyang and went to Daxing Palace, we chose to walk in the way of how to go, this is the first choice, even if we catch the county official and the centurion, there are also two choices, kill or not...... But all kinds of choices finally achieved this result, in fact, when starting from Yiyang, each choice will have other different results, and this result is only one of them. Can you imagine an endless number of us going in all directions, doing other things in this moment?"

Zhang Yu was shocked by the scene described by Cen Qing, as if she saw that she and Cen Qing chose other ways to leave Yiyang together, experienced different things, and got a different mood.

"A person's life, like this little aura, shines on such a large circle. Cen Qing raised his finger, lit up a little aura, and said to Zhang Yu as the ghost pawn who came to hook the soul: "Life and death are a kind of display of cause and effect, they consider the person's life, and comprehensively integrate the various situations he encounters, and finally get a lifespan." It's a pity that they still ignore the human ability to create accidents, which is why there are so many ghosts in the city. ā€

Zhang Yu was dumbfounded, Cen Qing had never said this to her before.

"Cause, choice, effect, this is a farming model. Cen Qing said, "First use violence to make you weak, and then don't make you completely desperate, and then educate your thoughts, and then your behavior pattern can be predicted." In other words, what you think is the result of your own choices has actually been arranged. ā€

Zhang Yu's body trembled, and she knew that the "they" in Cen Qing's mouth referred to the gods and Buddhas in the sky.

If what Cen Qing said is true, then the course that has been planned since birth, all his thoughts...... It was just horrible.

She suddenly wanted to vomit. (To be continued.) )
