Chapter 83: The soul is drunk in Jiangnan
The only thing that can't be stopped in this world is time, how many people want to choke its throat, but in the end it dyes their hair white.
Promise to the morning, old at night!
The minister's sentence "Treat me without worry, allow you to wander the world", in exchange for "Treat you without worry, I'm afraid that your face is bad".
The general's sentence "Treat me for half my life, let you talk about mulberry and hemp", but waited for a faint sigh "Treat you for half your life, Qingmei is a wife and married".
How many times are the flowers blooming, how many times are the flowers falling, how many times are the branches and leaves, how many times the yellow leaves are scattered, how many times the spring rain is dashing, how many times the winter snow is fluttering, how many times the grass is green, and how many times the grass is withered, maybe someone has been waiting, quietly waiting, waiting patiently.
But in this troubled world, how much waiting has really become a distant wait!
Five years have passed, and Daxia, Daliao, and Huaxia are still three-legged, and although small-scale wars have often broken out on the border of the three countries in recent years, fortunately there has been no bloody scene.
Despite this, the new graves on the frontier are springing up day after day, and the mounds covered with barren grass write a lot of sadness.
The old mother, wife and children of the family may still be leaning on the door, but they can no longer wait for the opportunity to meet, year after year, the fertile field has become a mountain of dry graves of burial ground, and with it is buried with the long-awaited hope.
Five years can change a lot, and you can count how many five years there are in your life, but for a country, it is just a moment in a long time.
It is March again, the catkins are flying, the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are full of vitality, it is the same as the wedding day of King Langya five years ago, the wind is beautiful, and the sky is clear.
A small wine shop near the river outside Jinling City, although the store is not big, but the business is very hot, here is close to the ferry, the businessmen from the south to the north are willing to drink a glass of wine here, and the guests from all over the world have a nonsense.
"Where did the guest come from?" asked the goatee boss casually as he poured a bowl of hot tea for the newcomer.
"Don't mention it, I just came from the north, and I almost lost my life for these truckloads of medicinal herbs!" the pharmacist sighed, picked up the tea, blew on it, and put it down gently.
"Yo, what's the matter, the north is fighting again?" the guests at the next table also came over and asked eagerly.
The chief of the medicine merchant sighed and said abruptly: "How have you stopped on the border in the past few years! No, I heard that the Great Xia Emperor has added troops to the border again, and it is estimated that the sky will change again." ”
A silk merchant next to him nodded and said, "It's difficult for us ordinary people to live a down-to-earth life in this troubled world!"
Everyone sighed when they heard this.
"Have you heard any news from the four princes during this time?" a driver who was in a hurry waved his sleeves and wiped the tea from the corner of his mouth, and hurriedly changed the topic to ease the embarrassing atmosphere.
Whether it was a pharmacist or other guests, as soon as they heard this, their eyes suddenly flashed, the four princes, the outstanding people who stood at the top of the world, no one in the world knew it, no one knew it!
The medicine merchant pondered for a while, and said: "The other three have not had much news recently, but it is the Blood Slaughter Prince, I heard that the owner of Hebei Golden Dao Village drank a few more drinks in the restaurant, and said a few words that the Blood Slaughter Boy did not like." That night, he single-handedly single-handedly swords, killed the Golden Sword Village, and destroyed him all over the house, even the three-year-old child did not let go!"
"Tut-tut, this blood slaughterer is too ruthless!"
Before the man finished speaking, he was covered by several people next to him, and the person next to him reprimanded: "You don't want to die, if you are heard by the Blood Slaughterer, we will all suffer!"
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on the man's forehead, and his legs were like chaff, and he hurriedly closed his mouth.
"The East Madness, the West Emperor, the Southern Immortal, the Northern Emperor, which of the four princes is not a masterpiece in the world, and the latter three have been famous for many years, which is understandable. It's just that the bloody slaughterer boy who was named the East Maniac by his fellow people in the rivers and lakes seems to have appeared out of thin air, and he has only been known to the world since he killed the Water Eagle and his 100 people in Poyang Lake two years ago. The silk merchant said angrily.
"That's right, this blood slaughterer, famous for killing, in the past two years, Shengsheng has made a name for himself with a sword, and there are not thousands buried under his sword, I'm afraid it's not far away. It's not easy to be among the four princes by taking advantage of an unknown flat-headed common man!"
"You say, who is more powerful among these four princes?" asked softly after the medicine merchant looked around and made sure that this was just an ordinary guest.
A big man next to him said angrily: "We all know that the son of the Western Emperor Xuanyuan is good at strategy, and when it comes to martial arts, it's too late to think about it." The martial arts of the Southern Immortal and the Northern Emperor should be among the best, and the blood slaughter son, known as the Eastern Maniac, is becoming less and less famous, and I am afraid that it is a step lower. ”
The coachman who drove the car shook his head and said, "No, no! I don't think it's an exaggeration to call the first prince of the Blood Slaughter, you see whether it is the Western Emperor and the Northern Emperor, or the Southern Immortal, which one can be like him, and raise his prestige to this level in just two years!"
"No, you say that Xuanyuan Gongzi's martial arts are inferior, I don't like to hear this, none of us have seen Xuanyuan Gongzi make a move over the years, can be as famous as the other three young heroes who are the best in the world in martial arts, where is the martial arts bad?
As soon as the coachman's words fell, someone retorted, and the man was dressed as a scholar, and counted them with his fingers slightly bent.
"Put your mother's shit, you look at the ...... of Beidi"
"The Snow Han Son, known as Nanxian......"
The passing guests in the wine shop were noisy, and the whole small wine shop suddenly became lively.
The place closest to the river sat a white-haired old man, with a clear face, looking like a fairy wind and bones, as if he would descend at any time full of light feathers from the sky, and cross him to fly away!
The most conspicuous thing is that he leaned against a bamboo pole next to him, on which was hung a white cloth, on which were written the eight characters "By asking ghosts and gods, the future can be expected".
He didn't interject in the heated argument from beginning to end, and didn't even glance over there, and took care of himself with peanuts one by one to send down a cup of Jiangnan Village mash.
"Sir, which of the four sons do you think is more powerful?" asked casually the goatee boss with a pot of wine filling the empty wine glass in front of the fortune teller.
The old man raised his eyebrows slightly, threw a snow-white peanut into his mouth, and said slowly: "Those four little guys, they are all very powerful, but well, hehe......"
"But what, you say!" The person next to him suddenly fell silent, wanting to hear what this unusual old man had to say, but he stopped abruptly halfway through his speech, just stared at the sparkling river, and did not speak again.
Those guests were not happy, and they all urged, and the fortune teller shook the wine glass in his hand, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The two kings can't stand together in a blue world, let alone the four kings." Hehe, they are just four important chess pieces in this troubled world, but they are never the gamblers who control their fate. How can we tell who is strong and who is weak?"
"What is this old man talking about!"
"Whatever, don't you take care of this crazy old man, drink high and talk nonsense!"
"That's right, the last thing you can believe is this kind of magic stick!"
“......”
All kinds of disdain, all kinds of dissatisfaction, this old man is really disappointed.
After pouring two glasses of wine, the medicinal herb merchant seemed to suddenly remember something, slapped his thigh, and said with a smile: "We patronized the four princes, how did we forget a heroine among women!"
"Who, who, you can tell me!" The people next to him were so excited by him that they stretched their necks, waiting for him to tell him about this person.
The corner of the medicinal herb merchant's mouth hooked up a smile, which became the focus of attention, making his face full of smug smiles, and he paused deliberately, and said, "Have you forgotten the wife of the Nanxian Xue Han Prince?"
"That's right, Princess Langya, that beauty in white!" A big man next to him slapped the table, shaking the wine glasses and dishes on the table, "That woman is really gorgeous, not only is her beauty incredible, but even her martial arts are unrivaled in the world." Three years ago, the barbarian king of Nanyue rebelled, and the king of Langya went out again, and for a time there was no one available in the court, and the princess of Langya was pregnant with six armor at the time, carrying a sword and running for thousands of miles, just one person, killed into the army of more than 200,000 barbarian kings, beheaded the barbarian king in front of everyone, and cut off the left arm of dozens of generals, Xiao Ran away!"
"200,000 barbarians, I actually watched that peerless woman come and drift away. The white clothes are not stained with blood, and the demeanor covers the world. After Princess Langya left, more than 200,000 barbarian soldiers were disbanded on the spot. Those barbarians all thought that it was Guanyin Bodhisattva who went down to earth, and after returning home, they built a shrine to worship day and night, called 'White-clothed Holy Maiden Bodhisattva', and the land of Nanyue paid tribute every year from then on, and they did not dare to rebel again!"
"Tut-tut, I've also heard about this, even if Princess Langya's martial arts are not as good as the four princes, they are not much worse. Although Princess Langya has not made many shots in recent years, she has become famous all over the world every time, writing down legends again and again, if he and his wife join forces...... Hehe, that's naturally no one to beat him. Nanxian Langya King and his wife are deeply affectionate, the husband and wife are world-sold, and their martial arts are unparalleled, and only such two people are qualified to form a family. ”
"Yes, yes......"
Many people echoed it.
The goatee boss had a smug smile on his face, touched his gray beard, and said with a smile: "You guys are in the right place, we all know that on the wedding day of King Langya, the husband and wife left the sedan chair halfway and disappeared for half a day for no reason, do you know where they went?"
The goatee boss deliberately sold the guanzi, and laughed twice "hehe", and the people present looked around and stopped talking.
When everyone heard this, their eyes were full of disdain, and the big man's face twitched twice, and he smiled strangely: "You shouldn't have said that you came here, right?"
The old man with the goatee slapped his face, and the handful of beard was about to float up, and laughed: "Yes, yes, they are here, and they are sitting there!"
He pointed to the place where the fortune teller sat and pouted, and his sworn appearance attracted a lot of disdain.
The fortune teller squinted his eyes and looked at him meaningfully, but did not say anything. But the others were different, and the laughter filled the whole small wine shop, and even flowed down the river to the sea.
"This old man doesn't weigh what he says nonsense, what kind of identity is King Langya, even if people leave at the wedding, they won't come to such a place!
"That's it, that's it, such a small broken place, I'm embarrassed to say that King Langya has been here!"
"If you want to put it aside, the four princes have also come to my house for dinner!"
"Don't be ashamed, don't be ashamed!"
"Hahaha......"
The goatee boss's face was turned purple, his eyebrows couldn't stop jumping, the green tendons on his forehead were exposed, and he roared loudly at everyone: "I didn't lie to you, they really came,
