Chapter Ninety-Eight: Don't Use the Hidden Dragon
"Everyone, I'm Lan Yu, I'm going to rebel, what do you say?" The rebellious words came out of the mouth of Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo, in a flat tone, as if he was just chatting about a homely sentence.
and Wen everyone, with different expressions. Feng Sheng, the Duke of Song, had a face sinking like water, Wang Bi, the Marquis of Dingyuan, his eyes were fluttering, and Fu Youde, the Duke of Yingguo, was thoughtful, only Liao Yongzhong, the Marquis of Deqing, looked excited, and seemed to be a little moved.
The truth of "if the machine is not secret, it will be harmful" Lan Yu is very clear, and the four people in front of him are the first-class nobles since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Now Xu Da is dead, and Chang Yuchun also died of a violent illness. These four people in the army, plus Lan Yu, can be regarded as the leading figures in the army. More than seventy percent of the generals in the army are soldiers they once led. Zhu Yuanzhang's will determined the sword of the Ming Dynasty. But the attitude of the five of them is Zhu Yuanzhang's sword-wielding hand. Because of this, Lan Yu looked for them, and no one more called.
Long
No one spoke.
Not speaking is actually a representation of their attitude.
"Brother Xu killed the world and commanded thousands of troops, but he ate a steamed goose when he was seriously ill, do you think it's a coincidence?"
βγγγγγγ β
"Brother Chang died violently. Lan Yu's face sneered: "Champion the three armies, and overwhelm the heroes." Do you believe that a character who fought the Six Demon Kings of the Great Yuan alone would die violently overnight?"
βγγγγγγ β
"Still not talking? Then it seems that Li Shanchang's son was stabbed and committed suicide in the Yanwang Mansion, and then the whole family caught fire, and you all forgot about it, right?"
"Alas," the old Feng Sheng sighed, shook his head and said, "Lan Yu, the times are different, we are all old. β
"Old, the blood is cold?" Lan Yu's voice was a little higher, now the five of them were in an underground secret room in the Liangguo Mansion, but they didn't have to be afraid of being overheard by the Jinyi Guard.
"That's not what Lao Feng meant. Fu Youde opened his mouth and said: "If it was at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, or even when I first established the Ming Dynasty, if you have this intention and want to be the emperor, with our friendship, it may not be impossible, but now that the old Zhu Dingding has been in the country for twenty-six years, if you say this again, even if we have the heart, we are powerless." β
"Brother Lan a few years ago, didn't you find a few of us to unite and retreat together, the five of us stood together, I believe the emperor wouldn't... No..... β
Wang Bi didn't say anything, but Lan Yu received it: "Won't you kill them all?"
"What Brother Lan said makes sense. Liao Yongzhong, who had a meaty face, snorted angrily and said: "The emperor sent Ping'an to lead troops to support Shudi, and the meaning is already very clear. Who is Ping'an? His father Pingding is the commander of Jiningwei, and he is only a child or grandchild who survives in front of us. Ping'an himself is just Zhu Chongba's adopted son, what is an adopted son? When did the imperial court have such an official as an adopted son? What battles have he fought and what merits have he made? Zhu Chongba still prefers to let him lead the troops rather than give them to Brother Lan, doesn't he understand what he means?"
"Understood. What do you understand?" Feng Sheng got up and paced back and forth a few steps, and then said in a deep voice: "The five of us are now in this Nanjing City, under the emperor's nose, and our relatives are also here, rebelling?
"In that case, what are you doing here tonight?" Lan Yu asked in a cold voice.
"What are you doing here?" Feng Sheng's face was swollen and red, and his expression was excited: "I'm here to persuade you to turn back!"
"Turn back?!" Lan Yu's face was hideous: "Lao Tzu's son is gone, what are you going to do?" I am not afraid to turn around!" suddenly slapped his palm on the stone table in front of him: "You have a family and a business, it's better to follow me, don't follow me and don't care." It's not that I don't know what you're thinking, but I'm just looking forward to pretending to be dead, hoping that the emperor can let you go in the past, but I tell you, whether you believe it or not, I, Lanyu, am the first, and none of you can run. Li Shanchang used the life of the whole family to exchange for a crazy son, I see what you will use in exchange for it in the future!"
"Are you sure?" Fu Youde asked lightly: "If you are seventy percent sure that you can succeed, then it is nothing for me to gamble with you." β
"Not at all. Lan Yu showed a smile on his face: "So what, I splashed his blood, let him have nightmares for a few days, and I think it's worth living two years less!"
The four were relatively silentγγγγγ
γγγγγγ
"The five of them got together?" Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the hot tea on the table, took a sip, and his eyes flickered.
"Yes. "A hot towel on the ground. "It's late at night, it's time for your emperor to go to bed. β
Putting down the teacup, he took the hot towel and applied it to his face, and a dull voice came from under the towel: "Where are they now?
"The inspector only found that the five of them suddenly disappeared from the house, and felt that the situation was wrong, so he reported to the old slave. β
"Hmph. Zhu Yuanzhang threw the towel in his hand on the ground and snorted coldly: "The inspection is like this, you can only find it first, and then you can report it to me, if you don't find out that it's wrong, I don't know that they gathered to plot tonight." β
Lao Zhang bowed down and picked up the hot towel on the ground, slowly folded it in his hand, and heard Zhu Yuanzhang's voice in his ears: "When my investigation factory is built, see who can hide from me." β
γγγγγγγ
After walking on the rivers and lakes, Xu Ruyi's heart is a little wild.
When he left the capital, Xu Ruyi went non-stop all the way, and now on the way back, his mood was inevitably a little heavy.
Lan Yu is not dead yet, but for his ending, he is still the same as before, unable to do anything. Originally, I thought that Shu was in turmoil, and the emperor might send Lan Yu to lead the troops to fight, but the news I heard in the past two days said that the emperor finally chose to let Lan Yu stay and let Ping An lead the troops to the battle.
"I'm still the same as before, and I can't change anything. Xu Ruyi's face was melancholy.
Zi said: It is not easy to learn and learn it, and it is not easy to be happy. Ouyang's immature reading voice interrupted Xu Ruyi's thoughts. Raising his eyes to see Ouyang holding the scroll, shaking his head, Xu Ruyi's face unconsciously put a smile on his face.
"I said, I can't see it, you Qingcheng Sect big disciple also talk about this Zhihu person's things in a set. Xu Ruyi said this to Wang Yongzhen, who was sitting opposite.
"Why, can't you see it?" Wang Yongzhen glanced at him, "Three thousand Dao Collections, four books and five classics, although our Qingcheng faction is a Jianghu sect, but the daily homework also includes Mingli." If you don't study, how can you be reasonable?"
As he spoke, Wang Yongzhen put on the appearance of an old master, shook his head and said: "I can only dance knives and guns, what is the difference between those crop men, trough gangs, salt gangs, etc.?" This is what Danyangzi said to him at the beginning, and he felt that it was very reasonable.
"But Brother Wang" Xiao Ouyang frowned, pouted and said: "Reading is really boring, why should I learn these things." β
"You know what. Wang Yongzhen patted Ouyang's little head lightly: "My brother doesn't require you to be familiar with the scriptures and history, but you must at least be literate and reasonable, which will be good for you in the future." β
"Oh. Ouyang reluctantly turned his gaze back to the Analects in his hand, and continued to read laboriously: "Zi said: Threesome, there must be. Brother, what do you pronounce this word?"
"Didn't I teach you before?"
"Oh. β
Wang Yongzhen answered casually, and when he looked up, he saw Xu Ruyi's disdainful gaze.
On the road before, the three of them also had a brief chat about Xiao Ouyang's education, and at first they planned to teach her martial arts, but in the end it was still over. The conversation at the time went something like this:
"How about you teach him?"
"I don't know how to teach people, my starry sword is to watch the stars every day and realize the Tao, if you know it, you will know it, and others can't say it. β
"What about you?"
"The kung fu of my Qingcheng faction does not have the permission of the master, and it cannot be easily passed on. β
"You teach her secretly, we just don't say no?"
"No, I can't. β
"Phew. β
"The two of us can't teach it, so you teach it, can't Xu Ruyi, the famous ghost sword of the rivers and lakes, teach a little girl?"
"Well... Xu Ruyi carefully screened his martial arts: the evil sword technique, Tiangang Tongzi Gong, White Bone Zen, Cold Ice True Qi, Taizu Long Fist, it seems that none of them can be taught to Ouyang. The first three don't need to be said. The cold ice true qi and yin qi are too heavy, not suitable for women's cultivation, as for the Taizu Long Fist...
When I thought of a little girl swinging her fists and kicks widely, Xu Ruyi felt a chill.
"Anyway, my kung fu is not suitable for women's cultivation!"
So, in the end, Xiao Ouyang could only temporarily "abandon martial arts".
The reason why Xu Ruyi despises Wang Yongzhen is because he thinks that Wang Yongzhen is "too picky" and "too old-fashioned" for not teaching Xiao Ouyang martial arts.
In fact, he really misunderstood Wang Yongzhen, martial arts, after learning it, he will naturally use it.
In the future, once Ouyang is recognized as using the Qingcheng faction's martial arts, he will inevitably get into trouble. Wang Yongzhen's biggest consideration is actually this.
If he is still the eldest disciple of the Qingcheng faction and the future head of the Qingcheng faction, then he will teach it, but after all, his current identity is embarrassing, and the Qingcheng faction doesn't know how to deal with himself.
"It's time for dinner, come in and drink?" Xu Ruyi shouted to Yamazaki Ryuya, who was driving outside.
There is only one official road, and unless Yamazaki Ryu also turns around, he won't get lost, so the person who drives the car becomes him. Wang Yongzhen wants to teach Ouyang to read, and Xu Ruyi... He may have been born to fight with horses, and as soon as he drove the car, the horses began to run around, which was really embarrassing.
After a while, Yamazaki Ryu also came in with the curtain, still with that cold look, and only smiled a little when his eyes turned to Ouyang.
"Where's the wine?" asked Ryu Yamazaki.
"What about here" Xu Ruyi opened the box casually, took out a jar of wine from it and handed it to Yamazaki Ryuya, and then took out a few pieces of sauce, meat and dried food and placed them among the four of them.
Yamazaki Ryu also slapped it with one hand, swept away the mud seal of the wine jar, and then poured a large mouthful of the altar with his head up.
"Leave me some!" Wang Yongzhen snatched the wine jar dissatisfied, and poured it up like Yamazaki Ryuya.
The three of them don't pay much attention to it, and they don't use bowls, so you drink it from the jar one by one, and occasionally reach out to tear a piece of meat and talk about two small dishes.
Along the way, the three of them didn't eat much dry food, but the wine went down several jars. Every time you pass through a small town, you don't need to buy more food and the like, but wine is indispensable.
"I won't talk about Yamazaki Ryu, you drink so often, like a drunkard, is it really good?" Xu Ruyi smiled.
"What's so bad about it. Wang Yongzhen casually tore off a chicken wing and held it in his hand: "Now that I'm a wasted person, who can take care of me?"
"It's a loose person, not a waste person. Yamazaki Ryuya said coldly, and then looked at his empty left hand, "I'm the waste." β
"It's almost, you have to mention this every time you drink, I used to be too lazy to pay attention to you, and you still have a face. Xu Ruyi stretched out his hand and pushed Yamazaki Ryuya.
When Ryuya Yamazaki was drinking, it was also when he talked the most. Regarding this point, Wang Yongzhen and Xu Ruyi's conclusion is that "this devil (Xu Ruyi's first name and was praised by Wang Yongzhen) estimated that he hadn't drunk any good wine before coming to Daming, so he drank it as soon as he drank it." β
"Why, didn't you cut my hand?" Yamazaki Ryuya raised an eyebrow.
"Uh... I was at the time. β
"You just say no. "If you don't talk less, people will be particularly choked when they speak, which makes Xu Ruyi stunned.
"It's all your reason!" Xu Ruyi said angrily: "At that time, when you slashed over, my life was almost gone, didn't you leave your hand?!"
"I kept my hand. Yamazaki Ryu also glared and said, "Another jar, the wine is gone." β
"Oh. Xu Ruyi handed over another jar of wine, and then went crazy: "I'm embarrassed to drink Lao Tzu's wine, I won't talk about your big moves later, you slashed me before, almost killed me, what do you say!"
"What else is going on?" Wang Yongzhen was intrigued. Along the way, although Wang Yongzhen did not participate in the martial arts conference, he was thunderous about the duel between the two of them. Of course, the rumors are inevitably a little sketchy, and now when he hears these details, he will certainly be interested.
"Nope. "Ryu Yamazaki is lying again... He was deliberately angry with Xu Ruyi.
"You're deliberately trying to anger me!" Xu Ruyi roared angrily.
"You said I cut you, what about the evidence?!" Yamazaki Ryu also reached out to wipe the corners of Xiao Ouyang's mouth, looking like you were biting me.
Xiao Ouyang looked left and right, didn't speak, chewed something in his mouth, just quietly listened to the quarrel between the two, and smiled from time to time. It doesn't look like it's the first time either.
"Why is there no evidence!" Xu Ruyi reached out and grinned at the placket on his chest, revealing his white chest, "Look, can you still see the scar?"
Wang Yongzhen leaned closer and took a closer look, and then said suspiciously: "No... β
"Huh?" Xu Ruyi looked down and saw that there was really no more. Obviously, I can still faintly see some traces two days ago.γγγγ
"Cut" Ryuya Yamazaki sneered and took another sip of wine.
"You!"
"Hey" Wang Yongzhen asked: "Seriously, what kind of medicine are you using, there is really no trace at all." β
"Don't ask. I really can't say, it's for your sake. Xu Ruyi scratched his head.
This is not his excuse, Bai Guzen's kung fu is clearly a magic skill, and he is not the only one who knows, didn't Zhang Sanfeng recognize it before, Xu Ruyi didn't dare to bet, in case it spreads to the rivers and lakes, attracting a group of people to chase and kill him, don't say it if you are not afraid, you will be annoyed to death. Fengyunzhuang was destroyed because of a book of Nine Yin White Bone Claws, but he experienced it personally.
I said. I didn't actually have any consciousness when I cut off your hand at that time, what was the situation at that time?" Xu Ruyi has always been curious about this. At that time, in the face of Yamazaki Ryuya's tricks, he was completely empty, and he didn't know anything, and when he came back to his senses, the victory and defeat were already divided. Since then, I haven't had the opportunity to ask others.,Now there's an opportunity.,Just ask Yamazaki Ryuya.,I guess he can explain this matter.γ
Ryuya Yamazaki's eyes were misty, and he fell into a memory.
"At the time. Yamazaki Ryuya said in a low voice: "At that time, your eyes suddenly rolled ... β
"Turning white?" Xu Ruyi rolled her eyes, "So?"
"It's not. It's all white, and you can't see the black eyeballs. Ryu Yamazaki said.
"All white, what about this?" Xu Ruyi said, turning his eyes upwards vigorously, looking a little silly, which made Ouyang laugh.
Yamazaki Ryu ignored him either, and continued: "I said it wrong, it's not white, it's more like the kind of black eyes that suddenly disappear, and then there is a kind on the face... β
Yamazaki Ryu also thought for a moment and hesitated: "A very peaceful, very compassionate smile." β
"Peace, compassion?"
"Hmm. Yamazaki Ryu also nodded: "Anyway, your expression at that time made me feel a lot less killing intent in my heart, and I even wanted to put down the knife in my hand, but you laughed and slashed me casually." β
"That's it... Xu Ruyi had a flash of inspiration, and a thought seemed to float through his head, but it was fleeting.
"Your hands ... Wang Yongzhen hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, there may not be no way... β
"Oh?" Not only Yamazaki Ryuya, but Xu Ruyi also looked over.
"Can you still pick it up if your hand is broken?" Xu Ruyi asked in surprise: "I remember that your hand should have been thrown away, right?"
"Buried. Ryu Yamazaki nodded.
"Anyway, I've heard this matter from the master and the Tang Sect Master once before. Wang Yongzhen said slowly.
"The master of the Tang Sect is the master of the Tang Sect, the three provinces of the Tang Sect. Xu Ruyi casually explained to Yamazaki Ryuya: "You just know that you are a very powerful person." β
Wang Yongzhen recalled for a moment and said, "I remember one time when they were chatting, I was waiting on the sidelines, and they seemed to mention two names at that time."
"What's the name?"
"One is called the Jinzhen Shen family, and the other is called the public loss class. Wang Yongzhen looked at the two of them at a loss, and then continued, "I haven't heard much of these two names, but then I asked my master, and the master said that the Golden Needle Shen family is a hidden sect, and he doesn't know where it is, but he is studying medicine in the door." As for the public loss class, it is a person, to be exact, a craftsman. β
The golden needle Shen family Xu Ruyi has not heard of it, but the public loss class...
"I remember that in ancient times, that Lu Ban seemed to be called the public loss class, right?
"You ask me, who do I ask?" Wang Yongzhen shrugged: "Anyway, I just think they might have a way." β
"Is there a way to do this?" Yamazaki Ryu shook his left shoulder, and even the empty sleeves of his robe floated twice.
Xu Ruyi didn't believe it either, his hand fell, even in modern times, he had to take his hand to the hospital in time, so that the doctor could pick it up for you. Now that Yamazaki Ryu doesn't even have a hand, what should I do?
"Anyway, what my master said at the time was quite amazing. Wang Yongzhen looked like you love to believe it or not: "At that time, my master said that the Shen family's medical skills of the Golden Needle are magical, almost miraculous, and they can renew their limbs. And the public loss class is the world's first craftsman, and it is said that many years ago he made a pair of legs. β
"It's really fake, I... Xu Ruyi said as he spoke, suddenly stunned, a thunder in his mind, he remembered Ren Xiao!
"Is it true?!" Xu Ruyi muttered.
"What's really?" Wang Yongzhen looked at Xu Ruyi.
"Nothing. Xu Ruyi picked up the wine jar and drank several sips in a row, hiding the surprise on his face.
