Chapter 80: Walking with the Tiger
Tang Yu was serious and said, "If you don't go, I can't cope with that kind of scene." I feel tired, others are not comfortable, like you said, I may be a country bun. ”
"I didn't say that about you. Qiu Baiyun was a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter if I say it, because I'm originally a fisherman from Jiangcun. ”
"Are you angry?"
Tang Yu said: "Why should I be angry, I am who I am, it doesn't matter what others think." He smiled and said, "What kind of person I should be, or what kind of person I am, will not change because of this." ”
Qiu Baiyun also smiled: "You are very open-minded......"
"How can you see it, but what if you can't see it? I think we should still do our duty as a human being. Tang Yu said, "If you don't reach that point, relying on hard support and pretending to make a false situation, even if others call you 'uncle', they still look down on you in their hearts." ”
Qiu Baiyun patted Tang Yu's hand and said, "Anyway, we are still buddies." You are a righteous person, I know that. Although I am not very old, I have been adrift for so many years, and I have experienced the heat and coldness of the world, the warmth and coldness of people, and I can distinguish between good and bad people......"
"Alright, you can go back quickly. Don't delay, there are guests upstairs. Tang Yu urged Qiu Baiyun.
Qiu Baiyun nodded, let go of his hand, and returned to Mingyue Tower.
Tang Yu walked forward, bought two steamed buns at a shop selling snacks on the corner of the street, carried them in a cloth bag, and transferred them back to the State Government Archives. Pushing open the door, I saw Lin Ziren leaning on a chair in the room, already asleep. He walked over and woke him up, "Old man, get up and eat!"
Lin Ziren rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at Tang Yu, and asked, "Why have you been gone for so long, I thought you were young and didn't know the way, and you got lost?"
"How can it, it's only a few steps. ”
The two of them devoured two bags of fragrant meat buns with tea. Lao Lin picked his teeth and said, "Hurry up and work after eating, there are still so many historical materials piled up here." ”
Tang Yu looked at his companion and asked, "You have been on an errand in Yingtianfu for the longest time, have you ever heard of a person named Miao Tycoon many years ago?"
"I've heard a little. Isn't he a bandit who gathers in the mountains and forests?"
"People have now been upgraded, transformed into national heroes who resist the Yuan. Tang Yu flipped through the old books on the table.
Lin Ziren said lightly: "However, this person is born with divine power, which makes him bold and domineering with a red copper knife." It can win people's hearts. In the past, he used to occupy the mountain as the king in the area of Hengjian Mountain, cut wood for soldiers, build earthen walls, and gathered tens of thousands of horses and horses when it was at its strongest......"
"Then have you heard about him leading his troops to hijack the Yuan Dynasty in the dark to control the river and pay silver?"
"I don't know. ”
"It is said that the amount of gold and silver is huge. Tang Yu lowered his voice and said, "There are a total of 80,000 taels of gold and 3.6 million taels of silver?"
Lin Ziren felt a little strange: "Who did you listen to?"
"A literati who presided over the compilation of "The Biography of the Martyrs". ”
"Then where did he get this news, is it accurate, our people who handle the case, the most taboo hearsay?" Lao Lin obviously had a negative attitude.
"Just give it a try, and it doesn't take much effort. If this is true, shouldn't we take fewer detours?"
"That's right. Lin Ziren thought about it for a while and no longer insisted.
Tang Yu put down the book in his hand, turned around and said: "The chief editor of this set of books is a Chuzhou genius named Alexandre Dumas, according to him, he saw this record from a thin booklet called "Walking with the Tiger". This notebook is signed 'This Remnant'......"
"Then call the librarian and ask, and you will know as soon as you ask?" There was a new development in the case, and Lao Lin looked a little unbreathable.
Tang Yu got up and walked out the door. When he came to the door, he suddenly turned around and said, "I'll go to the librarian, old man, you'd better re-examine the entries about Miao Daheng in the "Chuzhou Mansion Chronicles" in detail and record them, maybe where will they be used?"
Lin Ziren put down his teacup, slowly stood up, and walked to the file shelves full of library materials.
After a while, the archivist followed Tang Yu to the Department of Historical Materials.
The librarian is old, and his eyebrows are white. is also a gray-haired old man.
After listening to the inquiries of the two, he stroked his beard like silver threads, thought about it and said, "Well, I remember that this book was borrowed by the person who compiled the "Biography of the Heroes". ”
Tang Yu didn't understand: "Is there only this one book in the treasury?"
"Yes, not bad. The librarian looked around for a moment, then said, "This is the only one." ”
"You haven't even looked at it, why are you so sure?" Lin Ziren asked with a straight face, his tone a little cold. He was afraid that this old librarian would be troublesome and would look around, so he made up an excuse to deal with the matter.
"Because I bought this copy of 'Walking with the Tiger' on the street and brought it back to the archives. How can I not know?" the librarian was not in a hurry or annoyed, and his expression was calm.
Tang Yu was stunned, opened his eyes and said, "Come, sit down first." Would you like to tell us a little bit about it?"
The old librarian sat on the stool, rubbed his nose, and said, "Good ......"
