Volume 2 The Wind Rises in Pingjing Chapter 108 Xichu Red Lady Jia World
Under the moonlight, Zhang Xinkui walked slowly in the void, wearing a white robe moving with the wind, he closed his eyes and chuckled, and pictures passed through his mind, one of the backs sat on the stone platform like him, and a copper coin in his hand was thrown and picked up, picked and thrown.
"Xinkui, you really want to go. β
"That's nature, and I want everyone in this world to prove it for me. β
"It's just a false name, who has ever cared about Yunyan in the past, it's better like this, if you guess right, I'll let you go." β
"Wordless. β
"Wrong, come again. β
"Wordless. β
"Still wrong. β
"Wait, are you wordless on both sides, show me. β
"Hey, this is not in order, don't rob it. β
......
"If I had listened to you, maybe I would have been able to stop you later, you always said it was luck, but in fact it was fate. Zhang Xinkui muttered to himself, stretched his palm forward, and the void made a gesture of throwing copper coins, and at the moment when he raised his hand, the full moon in the sky suddenly changed from half a tooth to a full, and then back to half a tooth.
ββββββ
"Fang Yunqi, did you just stop me and asked me not to bet with him, or did you mean something else. Su Wen couldn't figure it out, it was obviously half the chance, but he lost thirty-two in a row, this luck was too bad.
Fang Yunqi, who was holding the grass stalk, looked at Su with a white look of disdain and asked lazily: "I'm afraid that your brain will cramp, if you annoy him, it will only be his ability to raise his hand to tie the five of us into a pile." β
"Is it so unbearable?" Su Wen sighed, thinking that he would wait for Zhou Buyan to snort disdainfully, the latter's strength is only afraid that it is already in the Lichen Upper Realm, if it is to find Fang Yunqi's statement, then Zhang Xinkui is not confused by the realm, and even such an unearthly person as Wen Dao.
"I can escape. Zhou Buyan spit out three words very seriously, but such humiliating words were said with a hint of pride, and even Qin Tong and Guo Yuansheng, the two guys with wooden faces, couldn't help but have a look of admiration.
"What the hell is this guy, so strong. "At the beginning, Qigui joked like a joke, there are so many masters in this world, how can we meet them, how many people have seen a few monks in the mortal realm from afar in their lives, but Su Wen has even seen a lot of Lichen realm, not to mention those schools, there are no less than ten in Cangzhou alone, and the strongest of them is Lu Xing and the Fuqin lady, although Chen Changan is deeply hidden, but he has never really made a move, and Xu Muzi's cultivation is lost, even if he sacrifices his life to improve in the end, he is only not confused, but Lu Xing once told him personally that the realm of not being confused is the limit of monks, and then the upper Wen Dao, those are not human beings can reach, It is necessary to communicate with the mind of heaven and earth in order to attain the body of enlightenment, which is why Ling Tiangong can be at the top of the cultivation for three hundred years, because a Dao Tian, near the water and the building first get the moon, at least one great priest has heard the Tao and is detached, but the realm is not completely equivalent to strength, for example, the third official Tianxiao in the world is only the peak of Lichen, but he still does not confuse Tang Yibai and others, and even the old ghost who hears the Tao is pressed under him, but he is the only one who can do it as a matter of common sense.
"The name of the No. 1 illusionist in Kyushu is not in vain. Fang Yunqi was full of praise, there were few people he really admired, but Zhang Xinkui was among them, "The illusionist was originally a leftist who did not enter the stream, he was just an artist who was raised by high-ranking officials and nobles at the beginning, and now he is even more down-and-out playing tricks on the street to beg for a living, but this ancestor of the illusionist almost put a hundred operas on the list of asking questions." β
"I also heard that the ancestor of the illusionist master was dissatisfied with the list of illusionists on the list of illusionists as a side door, Zeng Gu on the Ling Tian Palace engraved the word Baixi on the stone gate of the Dao Tian, at that time, the three major priests failed to stop either of them, if it weren't for the fact that he was too reckless and arrogant, he made a lot of disrespectful words in the retreat of the palace master of Ling Tian Palace, and was suppressed by the palace master's doppelganger in the world of Dao, and now the illusionist lineage may really be included in the orthodoxy. Guo Yuansheng said.
The copper coin Su Wen held in the palm of his hand was faintly hot, and he couldn't stop swallowing his saliva, he couldn't imagine that the grotesque-looking guy was actually a madman like his senior brother.
"It's still a few days away to get to Back Shade Mountain. Su Wen shook his head and shook off those messy thoughts, instead of envying the achievements of others here, it was better to be pragmatic.
"January. Zhou Buyan said.
"It should be faster, what else do you want me to do. Now that he has seen through the truth of this way, Su Wen has finally understood, since the result is doomed, the important thing is what else will happen in the process of reaching the end.
Zhou Buyan didn't seem to expect the other party to be so direct and calm, and said: "Follow along, as long as your side goes smoothly, the four of them will be fine." β
"Okay, I promise you, but if they have one less cold hair......" Su Wen held the copper coin in front of the other party's eyes and threatened with a smile.
......
Yanqiu Pass, the nearest pass outside Pingjing, the general name of the guard is Cai Ke, he joined the army at the age of fourteen, and made great achievements in the battle of destroying the Jin Dynasty, but unfortunately he was injured and could not hold the knife, so he was transferred to this place to be a guard general, although it is only a seven-grade martial arts, but it is the largest official in this Yanqiu Pass, which can be said to cover the sky with one hand.
There are thousands of people living in the pass, as the main road to Beijing, there are many business trips, and the profits are naturally quite large, which is why Cai may endure his temper and sit on this idle errand for more than ten years, but who doesn't want to be able to see the growth of Qingteng in the eight alleys one day, drink a drink of old man tea, these years Cai Ke sent four or five hundred thousand taels of silver to a house in Kyoto, and today finally has a response.
Cai Ke held a secret letter and paced left and right in the room, the content of the secret letter had already been imprinted in his mind, but he still opened it from time to time to look at it, and his injured right hand still trembled inexplicably, he reloaded the secret letter and walked to the table to light a candle, just at the moment when he was about to burn the letter, he hesitated, and put the letter back in his arms.
"Lao Tzu gave 500,000 taels of silver for white flowers, and he didn't even put a fart, and now he finally remembered that Lao Tzu was here, and it was better to keep a hand for this pig who couldn't be fed, so as not to admit it when he got it. β
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the one-year-old woman stood outside the door, her cloudy eyes were slightly white, and the old woman walked in slowly with a cane, and said in a shriveled voice: "Lord Cai, you have read all the letters of my son-in-law!"
Cai Ke hurriedly said with a pleasant face: "Granny Wang, rest assured, the officials of Du Gongzi will do their best." β
"That's good, recently Xu Langzhong of the Ministry of War told the old man to return to his hometown, just vacating the position, Lord Cai has been guarding Yanqiu Pass for many years, and he has worked hard, presumably this position belongs to you, and the old woman is now here to congratulate the adult. The old woman tapped the floor with her cane and chuckled softly.
Cai Ke hurriedly bowed his hand and saluted: "Isn't Granny Wang tormenting the lower officials? β
"Well, the old body will retire first. β
It wasn't until after the other party left that Cai Ke straightened his waist and looked happy, as long as there was a personal promise from the son, then the position of this soldier was not a certainty, and he called a pro-soldier loudly, and after saying a few words in his ear, the other party nodded and left.
There are 500 soldiers in Yanqiu Pass, and these 500 soldiers are all looking forward to Cai Ke, it can be said that he Cai Ke is the emperor of this Yanqiu Pass, just detaining a prisoner, this kind of thing is just a sentence for him, but it can be exchanged for a four-grade soldier Langzhong, this kind of good thing will never be too much.
ββββββ
Although Yanqiu Pass is a pass, but really want to overlook from a high place, but it is not lost to a small city, although the sparrow is small, the inn, the shop, the hospital, the horse gang, there should be, and even in the middle of the pass there is a high platform that is built, a woman in red dances on it, graceful posture, graceful dance steps, a tuft can attract the audience to cheer.
This kind of grass platform team is the most common in the Northern Wei Dynasty, women's dancing, men's voice, these two are these people who go to the rivers and lakes to watch the house, but most of these things can not be on the table, for example, there will never be these in Pingjing City, but those dignitaries in the backyard of the private house are not a few of these, who said that the gentleman does not raise artists, but the really blessed are only few, the man is better, please the master has something to eat, and most of those poor women have become the forbidden belly of the rich man, and the identity and status are not as good as the Qinglou in the Qinglou, and no one cares about deathγ
However, if you want to talk about which characters are the most colorful in these hundred plays, mentioning that the illusionist must be the madman Zhang Xinkui who dares to ask the Tao to engrave words, and when it comes to Lingren, it is indispensable to remind people of the red dress that is on the Wanque platform in Chudu, a song of feather clothes and neon clothes, since then the woman has a red dress, and the pen pavilion is rated as the first beauty in the ages.
It's a pity that such a glamorous woman can't die well, because of a neon dress dance and was favored by the king of Chu, but a year after she was set up as the concubine of Western Chu, Western Chu split, Western Shu and the Southern Tang Dynasty called the emperor, and at the same time sent troops to attack Chu, it is rumored that the lady was strangled to death by the overlord himself in the Changming Palace at that time, and some people say that the overlord can't bear her to wander away with herself, and secretly sent someone to send her into Shu, ten years later the king of Chu Hanjiang killed himself, and the lady was sick because of lovesickness, but it was also the same year that Xishu was destroyed by the Southern Tang Dynasty, so from then on the red dress will have another sentence of red face and troubleγ
"Xichu Red Lady is the best in the world, she was beautiful when she was born, but she can't escape the mouth of Youyou after death. An old man in the restaurant leaned against the window, pulled the peanuts on the plate with chopsticks, took a sip of water and wine from time to time, and looked at the red clothes on the table with a sad voice.
"The old man is from Western Chu?"
Hearing someone answer to him, the old man raised his head, the other party was a young and childish son, followed by four servants, one looked kind, and the other three held swords, fierce and vicious, and his words immediately became a lot more cowardly: "The old man is a remnant of Western Chu, I don't know what happened to the son." β
"It's just that when I heard the Xichu matchmaker mentioned by the old man, the kid was very interested, so I came to bother. This son is Su Wen, Cai Ke couldn't have imagined that a prisoner had neither shackles nor prison clothes, so he swaggered into the city.
Seeing the other party's elegant demeanor, the old man was relieved, waved his hand and said: "It's all a long time ago, if the son doesn't show the old man's stupidity, just say and listen to the son." β
"That's very good, Yunqi went drinking. Su Wen said cheerfully.
Fang Yunqi reluctantly moved away, and the old man looked at the other party asking for a jar of Cui Tao from the counter, and then looked at the light water and wine in his cup, and suddenly his mouth was full of interest.
Su Wen looked at it in his eyes and smiled lightly: "If the old man can tell more interesting things about Xichu, today's wine boy is invited." β
