Chapter 3 Chance Encounters in the Market
If you hadn't studied that damn mirror......
If Superbrain is still around......
If the "future" of military and science and technology can be realized in this era......
If......
Unfortunately, these are just "ifs", just like the fact that he has been reborn as the king of the Su, and many things are no longer going back.
Fate is like a strong annihilation, since you are powerless to resist, it is better to enjoy yourself. Why don't you ask for a surname like the king in the book, indulge in wine, live a barren life, enjoy it for decades, and then bury the great country easily, and finally be able to seal a happy star?
It's a pity that Zhang Zixing is not the kind of person who is muddy or pessimistic and depressed, he is unwilling.
In his "previous life", there were many difficulties on the road of scientific research, but he was always able to rely on his firm will and indomitable spirit to finally succeed in overcoming one difficulty after another, turning the impossible into a possibility. How could such a person be willing to submit to fate so much?
This day, Zhang Zixing, who was in a depressed mood, took a few entourages, went out in simple clothes, and wandered around the city of Qiyi and came to the market unconsciously.
The commerce of the Shang Dynasty has begun to take shape, the water and land transportation trade is also relatively developed, there are many kinds of goods in the market, the most is bronze handicrafts and pottery, there are also some expensive goods, such as silk, sea pearls, etc., the currency in circulation is a special copper shell. The market is full of people and looks very lively.
At this time, there was a commotion in front of me, and I saw passers-by avoiding it one after another, and a naked man carrying a thin body on his back desperately fled towards this side, with more than a dozen big men chasing closely behind.
The man seemed to have a lot of strength, and he ran fast with the person on his back, but because he escaped in a hurry, he accidentally slipped on the peel under his feet, and fell to the ground with the little girl behind him.
"Damn the cheap slave! I actually escaped from the house!" a big man at the head showed a fierce look in his eyes and pulled out a bronze sword from his waist.
Seeing that there was no way to escape, the naked man had to kneel: "The villain is not trying to escape, but the young sister is only eight years old, seriously ill, and in danger, so she has to run out to seek medical treatment, please be gracious!"
The big man looked at the little girl with her eyes closed and angry, and snorted coldly: "You cheap slaves, as low as ants, if you die, you will die, and you will save food, how can you be qualified to seek medical treatment? If you destroy the torture equipment and escape, according to the rules, the whole family will be punished!"
Torture was a form of torture at the time, that is, chopping people into meat sauce. The naked man hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "The villain's parents are dead, only this young sister is left, please be merciful to my little sister, I am willing to go back to the house to be punished!"
"You don't know whether you live or die, and you dare to bargain, and if you dare to escape, then all of you will die! Aren't you running fast? Wait for Lord Ben to cut off your legs first, and see how you can run again!" Seeing that the poor brother and sister were about to be splattered with blood on the spot, none of the onlookers was willing to stand up and help, and some even showed gloating expressions, and more were numb.
The big man smiled and raised the bronze sword, and was about to cut it down, when suddenly a thunderous voice sounded in his ears, "Stop!"
It was Zhang Zixing who made a sound, the big man was taken aback at first, his eyes fell on the brown clothes on his body, and his surprise suddenly changed to a sneer: "I am Dr. Feilian's family general Chen Jie, who are you, dare to take care of this idle matter? If you know each other, get out of here!"
It turned out that the Shang Dynasty had different levels of clothing, white was the most noble, and the nobles often wore yellow-red clothes, while Zhang Zixing's light brown clothes represented the low-level officials and commoners, so the Han did not take it to heart.
"Bold!" Seeing that the master was scolded by a pawn of a doctor's family, the entourage of the Shouwang Mansion cheered one after another, but was stopped by Zhang Zixing with a wave of his hand.
"Doctor Fei Lian?" Zhang Zixing frowned, and immediately thought of the slender man who went to King Shou's Mansion to give gifts a few days ago, it was the famous annihilator in the Shang Dynasty, and later the Zhou army invaded Chaoge and stole the jade seal with the evil to sacrifice it to King Wu, in an attempt to betray the lord for glory.
Looking at Chen Jie's arrogant appearance, Zhang Zixing, who was already disgusted with Fei Lian, laughed instead of anger, and waved his hand: "What about Doctor Fei Lian? Uncle Ben is in charge of this matter today!"
A few entourages couldn't help it for a long time, and as soon as they got the master's order, they immediately rushed towards the big men, they were all elite guards in King Shou's mansion, with high martial arts, fighting more with less, and they also had the upper hand.
Zhang Zixing saw that he was up, and he also joined the battle group, although his fighting skills were extremely poor, but he was victorious in his fast movements and great strength, and he knocked a big man to the ground and vomited blood with one punch, and kicked another big man unconscious, and knocked down four people in a short time. Seeing that Zhang Zixing was so powerful, Chen Jie raised his sword and secretly stabbed him behind him, the naked man was in a hurry when he saw this, and he rushed up desperately to hug Chen Jie, and fell to the ground, the tip of the sword slashed across Zhang Zixing's shoulder, bringing out a bloody mark.
Chen Jie, who failed in the sneak attack, was furious, and was about to raise his sword to stab the naked man to death, when suddenly his chest tightened, and the whole person was lifted up by Zhang Zixing with one hand holding the placket, and then thrown it far away, falling so hard that he couldn't get up for half a day, and the sword was broken by Zhang Zixing's divine power and broken in two.
When the guards of Shouwang's Mansion saw that their masters were brave, they also shook their spirits, and beat the rest of the big men to the ground, Chen Jie saw that the momentum was not right, and he got up in pain with the support of his companions, and after leaving a few cruel words, he limped out of the market.
After the battle ended, the guards found that the master was actually injured, and they knelt down to plead guilty, admitting that the protection was ineffective.
Zhang Zixing saw those guys walking away in embarrassment, and felt that the depression in his chest had dissipated a lot, and he didn't blame the guards, but laughed: "Happy!"
The naked man knelt down on his knees and kept kowtowing to Zhang Zixing: "The villain thanks the benefactor for saving him! Lord Feilian is in a high position, please leave the benefactor quickly, so as not to cause endless trouble!"
"You don't have to worry about me, but you ...... yourself" Zhang Zixing is most afraid of people who kneel at every turn, besides, as the king of Shou, where would he be afraid of Fei Lian's power, and motioned to his entourage to help the man up, "You are a fugitive slave and penniless, even if you escape to the hospital this time, who will heal your sister?" Even if God is lucky enough to meet a kind person and cure her, you will not be able to escape from Moyi City, and in the end, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the death penalty." ”
The man smiled bitterly: "My family has been a slave for generations, my father was beheaded for offending his master, and my mother also died of exhaustion, leaving only my younger sister to rely on me for her life." Now that my little sister is seriously ill and in danger, how can I bear to watch her die......? If I die, it will be fine, but pity my little sister for her miserable life......"
Zhang Zixing naturally knew the tragic fate of slaves in a slave society, and when he thought that the Shang Dynasty still belonged to the most barbaric primary social system of mankind, he couldn't help but feel extremely heavy in his heart. Looking at the man's helpless expression of resignation to fate, Zhang Zixing suddenly felt a sense of sympathy for the same illness - as the future king of the Emperor, how could he not be a pawn at the mercy of the "Mandate of Heaven"? Thinking about it, he was stunned for a while.
Is it really all predestined?
Is it really impossible to change?
"If you have the chance, you ...... Do you want to change the fate of yourself and your sister?"
After being silent for a long time, Zhang Zixing's sudden question made the man stunned, the man hesitated for a moment, and then nodded vigorously.
"If I said that you would probably suffer defeat or even die because of this, would you still persevere?"
The man did not hesitate, he nodded firmly with an expression, he was a fugitive slave, he had nothing, he was a death, what were he afraid of failure or death?
Zhang Zixing bowed his head silently, as if a lightning bolt flashed in his head, and his eyes gradually became fanatical-since even this slave with the lowest social status at present can be afraid of failure in order to change his fate, is he not as good as him who has thousands of years of human wisdom and scientific knowledge?
Isn't there a common saying among alumni in universities that is called "people are dead"?
Death is death, afraid of a bird?
If the thief wants the Shang Dynasty to perish according to the "plot" like that, His Royal Highness will not let you get what you want! If you don't turn this world upside down, wouldn't it be a waste of this rebirth!
From the economy to the military, simply let the times take a leap, think about the thousands of soldiers holding hot weapons to deal with those immortals, shooting them into honeycomb coal, and seeing how many immortal pills they have enough to eat?
You can't fight those immortals head-on, and the tricks of sowing discord, driving tigers and wolves, and borrowing knives to kill people will always be, or just drugged and knocked on a stick...... It would be great if I could cut those sect leaders into bare-bones commanders - even if I died in the end, I would have to pull some more cushions, wouldn't I?
Aren't there a lot of beauties in the world of the gods? What fairies, fairies, princesses...... It's a pity that there is too little ink depicted in the original book, and I can't get a glimpse of the beauty, otherwise, I just stuff it all into the harem, anyway, it's not easy to come to this trip, this is called death in the hundred gardens, and the gods are also popular......
After making up his mind, Zhang Zixing only felt that his heart suddenly brightened, and the ideological baggage that had been accumulated for a long time disappeared without a trace, and he laughed out loud at the moment.
In fact, some truths are actually not complicated, but people are often confused by the authorities because they are in it, and even turn into a dead end, really smart people often only need a proper opportunity to have an epiphany and jump out of the game, Zhang Zixing encountered such an opportunity today, on the surface he has not changed, but his mental outlook has undergone a qualitative leap.
How could the slave man know this, and when he saw that Engong suddenly smirked for no reason, he didn't dare to ask more.
At this moment, there was a commotion at the entrance of the street, waking up someone who was immersed in infinite yy, and in the distance, a group of people was rushing towards this side. Zhang Zixing's eyes were sharp, and he saw that this was a military general on horseback leading a team of soldiers in leather armor, and Chen Jie, who was beaten away by himself, was among them. But what is his status, and how can he be afraid of these people?
The naked man also sensitively guessed that the pursuer had arrived, and hurriedly said: "If the benefactor is willing to have mercy, please take my young sister away quickly, the villain will stay to lead the pursuers away, and desperately want to cover the benefactor to leave." The benefactor is very virtuous, and the villain has to be repaid in the next life. ”
Although this man is a slave, he values love and righteousness, and he regards death as home, which is really rare. Before Zhang Zixing could speak, someone on the side had already said: "There is no need to do this, you just have to leave with confidence, and you can be safe." ”
