After Lin Yunrou finished saying that, she stared at her in surprise, and actually found a reason for her: "Sir, I understand, it turns out that you calculated this situation and deliberately told me a story." ”

Shao Yan came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "I don't have any leisure to calculate this matter, if nothing else, at that time, our conversation was listened to by people with a heart, and they may think it was good, so this scene appeared." Shao Yan basically guessed the truth of the matter.

Shao Yan sighed again: "In this way, the people are even more miserable, since ancient times, prosperous, the people are suffering, dying, and the people are suffering." ”

"Sir, you are wrong, the people rose up for the sake of the good thing, why are they miserable?" Lin Yunrou retorted thinking she was smart.

"Such a major event, once launched, involves too much, it is necessary to have enough personnel to coordinate and manage, and the rule of military discipline and occupied territories must be completed with a complete set of leadership personnel. Among the poor people, there are almost zero literate people, and if you talk about management, you are very likely to become a rogue, once you are a rogue, burning, killing and robbing, do everything, and the people should suffer the disaster wherever they pass. "Shao Yan's history on earth is full of examples.

"Sir, can you save these people?" Lin Yunrou has walked in the mortal world for most of the past half a year, and has a lot of good feelings for ordinary people, unlike monks who regard mortals as ants, which is exactly what Shao Yan wants, after all, there is no superiority in the Tao, and this is what the beginning of "Zhuangzi and the Theory of Things" talks about.

"Didn't you just learn to calculate, you can take a lesson and see how to do it, the people can be saved?" Shao Yan took the opportunity to practice teaching.

Lin Yunrou immediately calmed down, took out three copper coins, and threw them six times in a row, each time she threw them, she drew a symbol, divided into less yin and less yang and old yin and old yang, according to the yin and yang, set the six lines, divided into inside and outside, don't change the hexagram, and finally the calculation was completed, and shouted: "Sir, we will go to the east, and we will meet the nobles of the people, Yikou Yukou, what does this mean." ”

When Shao Yan saw her entire calculation process, he immediately understood that this was the case, so he said to Lin Yunrou: "Let's go! You will understand after three days." Without further ado, he stood up, settled the bill, and the two headed east. Anyway, they were originally going east, but they were also on the way.

Gradually entering the mountainous area, although it is not a high mountain, but the mountain peaks are one after another, the road is winding, passing through the valleys, the two of them walked forward along the road, and there was a mountain in front of them, faintly murderous rising, Shao Yan signaled Lin Yunrou to look at the qi, Lin Yunrou looked at it carefully for a while, and said: "There seems to be an army here, is it a robber who occupies the mountain as the king, and the hexagram refers to here?" Shao Yan nodded, and the two continued to move forward.

A group of people appeared in the preface, Shao Yan's eyes were sharp, these people's clothes were in tatters, dragging their children and daughters, Shao Yan was sure that this was a group of refugees, coming from east to west, Shao Yan sighed in his heart, it seems that the war is approaching here. At this moment, a gong sounded on the mountain, rushing down a group of small minions, led by a black man, with a full beard, rooted in flesh, holding a long-handled mountain axe, shouting: "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, I want to pass by here, leave to buy road money, half of the teeth are broken and say no words, kill or bury!"

Although Lin Yunrou was about to get up and rush over after a distance, Shao Yan grabbed her, shook her head, signaled her to be quiet, and continued to walk over there unhurriedly.

The group of refugees was in chaos all of a sudden, and a leading old man knelt down and cried: "King, we are ordinary people hiding from the army in the east, and we have no money at all, please let us go." Many women and children began to cry, and all of a sudden. The big black man looked a little at a loss, scratched his head, and said: "I don't know what's going on, in the past few days, a few groups of refugees, the eldest brother said, you can't attack the poor, go over!" The group of refugees kowtowed: "Thank you, the king, for your kindness, stand up, and hurry through."

Shao Yan's master and apprentice had already approached, and a small minion motioned to the black man: "Four kings, there are two fat sheep over there." The big black man glanced at it: "Forget it! It seems that he is a scholar and has no luggage, let them go!" Shao Yan heard that although this person was a robber, his conscience still existed, and his surname was not bad. ”

"You scholar is interesting, this king has made way for you to pass, but you salute this king, do you want this king to invite you to eat and drink. The black man became interested and looked at Shao Yan.

"If the king is willing, the scholar will be difficult. Shao Yan also had a tricky heart in his heart.

"Bold, dare to talk to our four kings like this, don't die!" a minion jumped out.

"Hmph, my husband has traveled all over the famous mountains in the north, and I don't know how many heroes are respectful. Lin Yunrou glanced at this little minion, and reprimanded him in a tone that didn't take him in her eyes.

This little minion was a little ignorant and reached out to grab Lin Yunrou, Lin Yunrou frowned, shook her hand, and threw it out of the way, the little minion fell to the ground, holding her buttocks and screaming in pain, and the other minions laughed.

The black man frowned and said, "The little girl is good at kung fu, I don't know what is the matter with the scholar?" Shao Yan also put away his teasing heart and replied: "I heard that all the kings on the mountain are heroes of the world, so I specially went up the mountain to visit." ”

"So, scholar, please!" Shao Yan and his minions went up the mountain together.

When I arrived at the mountain, the black man went in to report, this mountain is called Youyuan Mountain, there are three thousand minions gathered on the mountain, there are four kings, for the sworn brothers, the eldest Zhu Lintong, originally the son of a rich family, since childhood like martial arts, the surname is good friends, people in the rivers and lakes, often come and go, worship many people as teachers, and then have to be taught by masters, a martial arts, it is really good, and then because of the corrupt officials seeking their family property, forced to rebel against the mountain; the second white-clothed scholar Wang Lun, like to wear white clothes, was a scholar, many times the imperial examination because of no money to bribe, many times failed the list, and then disappointed in the imperial court, also joined the gang, the strategy is changeable, is a military teacher-style figure; the third Du Gongwang, originally a ranger in the rivers and lakes, and Zhu Lintong life and death friends, also entered the mountain to do the third chairThe old four Lin Xiaocun, born with divine power, this is the Orion, the ability to fight the tiger, Zhu Lintong met by chance, saw its bravery, was amazed, and then let people pass on its martial arts, after entering the mountain, became the four kings of the cottage.

Lin Xiaocun entered the Juyi Hall and told the other three kings everything, and Zhu Lintong said to the other two: "Two brothers, you have heard of this person, but you don't know what this person is for, do you see it or not?"

Wang Lun, a white-clothed showman, asked Lin Xiaocun, "Who do you say the person who came calls himself?"

He called himself Xu Hongzu Xu Xiake. Lin Xiaocun replied.

"Could it be him!" Wang Lun hesitated. The other three cast inquiring glances.

If it is him, this person can be described as famous, in the past few months, the world's readers sought after three books, two of which are "The Mean" and "University", the ancient saint has not been released, the world is a great Confucian, all admire it, the other is his personal travelogue "Xu Xiake's Travels", also known as a geographical book by scholars, such as this person, when you see it. Wang Lun briefly introduced what he knew, Zhu Lintong was a hero who loved to make friends, and when he heard this, he immediately ordered, opened the main door, and the four of them went out to greet each other.

As soon as he saw Shao Yan, Zhu Lintong immediately smiled and hugged his fists to salute: "I have heard Mr. Xu's name for a long time, and he is really a rare strange man in the world. Shao Yan took a closer look at the faces of the four people, they are all rich and noble, and they will become great weapons in the future, so they changed hands and returned the gift at the moment: "Xia Ke got up all the way, and heard more about the four robbers of the rich and helping the poor. After Zhu Lintong introduced the two parties, Wang Lun asked: "Mr. Xu, the three major works of Jun, I have already read them, two scriptures, the actual ancient sages have not spoken, and the travelogue is also rare and strange, I don't know what Mr. ambition is?"

"Falsely praised, "The Mean" and "University" are just sorting out the books of the sages, and the travelogues are dramas made by Xia Ke during play, and they are not in the eyes of the Fang family. Speaking of ambition, there are two, one is to travel all over the famous mountains and rivers of Zhongzhou, and remember the essence of its mountains and rivers. Second, it's Xia Ke who is arrogant, don't say it. Shao Yan replied with a smile.

"Mr. Dazhi, why don't you tell me about it?" Everyone was interested, and even Lin Yunrou pricked up her ears, Lin Yunrou said in her heart, she is still a master, and she has already laid it out, and now that people have not yet arrived in a place, the name has already spread.

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations. As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly felt that a divine was born from heaven and earth, and they couldn't help but be in awe.

Wang Lun sighed: "No wonder Mr. can write classics like "The Mean" and "University"!"

Zhu Lintong welcomed Shao Yan into the Juyi Hall, ordered a banquet, and invited Shao Yan's master and servant to the table. During the banquet, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves and drank to a hearty end, Shao Yan asked: "The four kings, are they trapped here all their lives?"

The eyes of the four of them immediately stared at Shao Yan, and Zhu Lintong clasped his hands and said, "Of course I don't want to be trapped here forever, what can Mr. teach me to wait." ”

Shao Yan said: "Today, the Son of Heaven is cowardly, the superior ministers are autocratic, the candidates are ready to move, there are corrupt officials rampant, thieves are rampant, the people's livelihood is ruined, and the chaos has appeared. As you know, the people who served in the king's tomb have risen up. ”

Wang Lun's eyes flashed with a flash of vigilance, and he asked, "Is Mr. Xu a member of the righteous army, who has come to persuade us to respond or surrender." ”

"No, I have nothing to do with the rebels, and I am not urging you to respond, but it is indeed the opposite. Shao Yan denied.

"What do you mean, sir?" asked Wang Lun.

"The rebellion of the rebel army is really the official forcing the people to rebel, but in fact, there is no will to fight for the world, just to survive, plus the poor, limited knowledge, although it is prosperous for a while, it will be defeated in the future, and its uprising, without organization and rules, will eventually be a rogue, plundering the Quartet, but harming the people, not the same road. Shao Yan analyzed.

"Are we going to the government?" asked Zhu Lintong.

If the government does not [***], the people will not cause trouble, and the government is incompetent, and they are jealous and jealous, and they will die quickly. Shao Yan said.

"It's not good or bad, so what?" Wang Lun asked.

"In this troubled era, it is the time when there is a big event, the prince and the prince will have a kind of Xiangning? At this time, I see that the refugees pass under the mountain, they can play the banner of protecting the people and defending the road, and occupy the original city before the righteous army, according to the righteousness, with the people, in order to protect themselves and correct their reputation, and when they enter, they will take the nearby cities as a base, and if they retreat, they can return to this mountain to defend each other. Deal with the heroic forces, wait for the famous lord to appear, join his command, worship the marquis, and get it. The upper part saves the people from fire and water, and the lower one gets a wealth and glory, and glorifies the ancestors with glory. Shao Yan said.

The four of them glanced at each other and laughed: "Mr. is really talented!" Shao Yan felt that something was wrong, as if it was unexpected.

At this moment, a minion came to report: "The four kings, the undercover agent in the original city has returned." Shao Yan suddenly realized and said: "It turns out that you are already seeking to take the original city, but Xia Ke is ugly. ”

"What does Mr. say, but the hero sees the same thing, we just want to take the original city, but I didn't think much about it later, thank you Mr. for planning for us. Wang Lun said.

Undercover report on the situation of the original city, originally thought that it would take a lot of effort to take the original city, but now the news is that the original city Taishou actually heard that the rebels were going to capture the original city, abandoned the city and fled, now the city gate is wide open, everyone is overjoyed, and immediately ordered to go down, and the whole army went straight to the original city.

Because the four of them had prepared for a long time, Wang Lun was originally a scholar, and when he knew the importance of the people's hearts, he entered the city, and Qiu did not commit any crimes. Shao Yan also suggested that all the famous families in the city should be invited to protect the city, and the four of them also called themselves generals, many old officials also began to work normally, and the wealthy families also sent many children to help, so far, Zhu Lintong and the four of them have gained a firm foothold.

Shao Yan explained the matter of Yuehu Mountain to the four people, and the four of them were overjoyed and sent messengers to form an alliance with Yuehu Mountain, and Shao Yan also transmitted the news back to Yuehu Mountain through the Yuehu Mountain Business Inn.
