Beside the pond, two old men whistled repeatedly, appreciating each other's poems. Although the surroundings were still a bit chilly, tasting the warm wine offered by the maid from time to time and the white flesh screen beside him, this small world had a sense of spring.
Looking at the screen with the delicate fragrance of a girl, and the wooden platform where Tanaka shivered slightly due to the cold, Wu Gen finally understood what it means to be unruly, and to dare to love without touching the ground, it is really a long time to live.
Chu Ji blinked, looking at the scene in front of him in surprise, and whispered: "These two people are really annoying."
Seeing two strangers looking at each other, the housekeeper quit and walked to Wu Gen, "How can you be so poor? The noble man is here to enjoy the scenery. What are you two muttering about? Get away and wait more slowly with the whip." .”
Wu Gen was a little helpless. Before the two rightful masters said anything, the bitch started barking and sneered: "Grandpa is here to see pigs and dogs dressing up and pretending to be elegant. It's none of your business. The world is really declining, and the clothes of animals are trampling on people." Underfoot."
The butler's face darkened, he glanced at Tian Zhong and whispered: "Boy, are you looking for death? You dare to insult a noble person with words. Just for this reason, if I don't beat you up today, wouldn't it be an insult to the laws of the Zhao Kingdom." "I waved my hand and whipped him.
Wu Gen grabbed the opponent's whip and the butler whipped it back, but the whip didn't move at all. He could only blush and said: "Come here, take these two people who don't know life and death, hang them on the tree and beat them hard." .”
Seven or eight guards, each holding a stick, surrounded him fiercely.
Wu Gen sighed. These people looked like ordinary people at first glance. Some of them didn't even know how to fist or kick, and they only relied on brute force. I really didn't look at the almanac when I went out today, so I accidentally stepped on a piece of dog poop.
Without using the knife, he jumped off the mule. After a crackling sound, seven or eight people fell to the ground and wailed.
The housekeeper shouted in fright, "This is terrible, someone is trying to murder your noble lord, please report it to the official."
Wu Gen pulled out the knife and put it on the butler's face. "Keep shouting and I'll cut you into pieces every time I shout." The shouting stopped abruptly. Wu Gen kicked the butler on the neck, and he fainted with a hiccup.
He strode towards the two nobles, and those carrying the chariot dispersed in fear. As for the unruly man, his face turned pale with fright and he kept shouting, "Run quickly."
The servant holding the wooden platform under him heard his master's call and quickly moved. But under such circumstances, how could he move fast in the mud.
Seeing Wu Gen approaching like a ferocious spirit, the old man and the skinny old man were so frightened that they pushed away the flesh screen and jumped directly into the ground. After just two steps, he tripped over a field stalk and fell into the muddy water, covering his whole body with mud.
Wu Gen jumped in front of the unruly man, lifted him up by his hair, pointed the broken knife at the man, and said sternly: "Unruly man? I told you not to walk fast, run quickly. If you run slower, it depends on your thick skin." The knife is still sharp." He said and slapped the back of the knife heavily on his back.
The old man dared not to wear his shoes at this time. He picked up his large clothes and stumbled around in the field. Wu Gen followed behind, and when he slowed down a bit, he patted him down. The man was so frightened that his face burst into tears, and he started to cry loudly as he ran.
Spring has finally arrived, and it’s the season when everything revives. The two of them ran together, one behind the other, into the spring light, and the fields echoed with the strange cry of spring.
After running dozens of steps, the old man couldn't run anymore. He sat in the mud and begged for mercy, crying.
Just when Wu Gen was about to scare the other person a few more words, a voice said, "Your Excellency, that's enough. Just punish him. Isn't it a bit excessive to tease the other person like this?"
Looking back, I saw it was the teacher from the school I just passed by.
Wu Gen smiled slightly and said, "Sir, what you said is wrong. I read in a book that knowledge is the beginning of action, and action is the completion of knowledge. Since this old man looks at farming, his feet are not on the ground, and his knowledge and action are inconsistent, I am here to teach him knowledge. Come on, why should I punish you?"
The old man howled loudly, "Mr. Zhang Yi, please save me quickly. This boy is fierce and stubborn. He fights with fists and kicks for no reason. Please take action and capture this boy to rectify Zhao Guogang's discipline." As he said, Get up and crawl towards Mr. Xuetang.
Wu Gen stepped forward, stepped on his back, stepped into the muddy water, and drank a mouthful of muddy soup, "You don't know what is good and what is bad, and you have good intentions to teach you, how can you use fists and kicks together? Even if fists and kicks are added together,
I also hate you deeply and painfully. I hope you will succeed in your studies. You are right. "
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The poor man took a mouthful of mud and humped on the ground like a pig.
"That's enough." Zhang Yi's face turned angry, and his tone was much tougher than before. He reached out and took out a pen, "He is a noble person after all, how can he be treated like a pig or a dog. If he doesn't stop, don't blame me for taking action."
"So what if you are a noble? They are all born from parents, not from rocks." Wu Gen pointed to the "wooden platforms" that were still lying on the ground and did not dare to move, and said in a sharp tone, "Why are some of them like dust? Many people are trampled under their feet, but some are able to treat people like animals.
Are common people wearing blazing light on their backs just to support these useless wastes? Sir, seeing this scene, I must feel a little unhappy. If not, wouldn’t those sages’ books be read into the dog’s belly? "
Zhang Yi sighed, "Your Excellency, please let me go first. I will guarantee that today's matter will not be pursued. If the trouble continues, do you really think that Zhao Guoguo will allow you to insult a noble person in broad daylight?"
"Okay. Listen to sir." Wu Gen picked up the fat old man and threw him beside Zhang Yi, smashing him into pieces.
Wu Gen's move made Zhang Yi stunned, and he lowered the pen he raised.
At this moment, Chu Ji screamed. The steward touched the mule at some point and pulled Chu Ji off. He held a sharp knife to his throat and said, "Mr. Zhang, I will restrain this little one. Please also take down the murderer. My husband was humiliated by him today and must be reported to the official and severely punished."
Wu Gen suddenly turned his head, his face turned cold, "Let her go, or everyone will die today." Walking towards Chu Ji step by step, the strong murderous aura in his body was almost substantive, and the surrounding seemed a bit colder.
"Wait a minute, Butler Li, let this boy go quickly, before it causes a big disaster." Zhang Yi became anxious and yelled at the steward. Just for a moment, there seemed to be a sea of blood rushing in front of him. There must be a lot of human blood in this young man's hands, otherwise he wouldn't be so evil.
Yurong County is located in the hinterland of Zhao State. It has not seen military disasters for a long time, and it does not worship martial arts, but mostly advocates literary style. I'm afraid these servants are used to being arrogant and domineering. They have never seen any fighting. How come they dare to offend anyone. Just now this person had the intention of changing things, but this idiot has got himself into a situation where he will never die.
Zhang Yi waved a big pen like a rafter in his hand, "The pen fell in the wind and rain." With a soft chant, mist rose out of thin air in front of Wu Gen, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder.
"Sir, you really want to stop me," Wu Gen kept walking and tilted his head to look at Zhang Yi coldly.
"Don't worry, Your Excellency. I will definitely not let Butler Li hurt the book boy. Please calm down." Zhang Yi is not afraid of Wu Gen, but he just doesn't want corpses everywhere and rivers of blood flowing today.
"Okay, sir, please tell him to let go. If he gets hurt, I'll let this bastard's whole family stay with him." Wu Gen walked to the mist and stopped.
Zhang agreed that Wu Gen should let go, and quickly lowered his head to persuade the unruly man who was lying at his feet, "Brother Gou, please tell the housekeeper to stop, don't act out of anger."
The unlucky old man looked at Zhang Yi pitifully, "Is it possible that even with such magical powers, sir, you can't defeat this vicious man?"
"It's not that I can't take it, it's that I can't take it. Brother Gou, could it be... hmm?" Zhang Yi suddenly raised his head and rushed toward the mist.
After passing through the fog as thick as tea soup, Zhang Yi shouted, "Why did you break the promise and take action without authorization?" Just when he was trying to persuade the unruly man, he suddenly felt someone rushing through the fog, and he knew something was wrong. Just came in a hurry.
Wu Gen held Chu Ji in one hand and spread out the hand holding the knife, "Sir, I don't understand what kind of promise I made."
Beside him, the housekeeper fell to the ground and cried hoarsely. The arm holding the knife had been cut off at the roots.
Zhang Yi was speechless. It was true that Wu Gen had not promised him anything just now. It's just that as a scholar, I thought that the other party would eventually be more discerning, but I didn't want to be such a ruthless person.
Wu Gen smiled and said, "Sir, as you just said, let's just let the matter of today go away. What do you think?" He said with an innocent look on his face and looked at Zhang Yi with a smile. If it weren't for the large pool of blood on the ground, I would have been deceived by his face.
Zhang Yi didn't know that Wu Gen was from Dafeng Village. If he was lucky enough to meet someone from the village, he might not be able to talk to him.
Wu Gen's face and the matchmaker's mouth are unbelievable.
"Oh, don't do it again, you promise me." Zhang Yi sighed heavily and stared at Wu Gen with a serious expression.
"Okay, I won't do anything again." Wu Gen agreed simply.
Zhang Yi waved the pen in his hand, and the stagnant mist gradually dispersed. He turned back three times and walked toward the unruly man uneasily. He said in a low voice: "Brother Gou, you have also noticed that this man is not an ordinary gangster. If things get tight today, let alone a massacre. If he were to escape, your whole family would be here, I'm afraid..."
The two of them muttered for a long time, and the unruly man accepted his bad luck and stopped pursuing the matter. Otherwise, what else can you do? Report to the officer. The officer and soldiers don't know when they will arrive here. This person has already run away.
Kill this person, maybe until he can't be killed. If he can't be killed, this person will hide in the dark and run to his home from time to time. He will stab him one day and one tomorrow. He will not let a good family live. He just married a beautiful woman with two wives. concubine.
Seeing that the other party no longer pursued the matter, Wu Gen smiled and accidentally stepped on the butler who was still moaning on the ground. With a squeaking sound, his other arm was trampled off.
"Why don't you take action? Why are you so cruel?" Zhang Yi was really angry this time.
Wu Gen looked apologetic, "Sir, I didn't do anything. This man was lying on the ground and I accidentally stepped on him. Please forgive me, sir."
"You, you, you...are really scoundrels."
"Thank you for the compliment, sir." Seeing what happened here, Wu Gen took the mule and left with Chu Ji. I am also a person running for my life. If I don't get into trouble, I can't waste time because of this.
After walking a few miles, footsteps came from behind, and Zhang Yi was seen striding over.
Wu Gen's expression changed, he touched the broken knife and protected Chu Ji behind him.
"What do you mean, sir?"
"Don't be nervous. I'm not here to embarrass you. I just want to walk around with you. I won't waste much time." Zhang Yi whispered softly.
"Oh, that's good work." The other party went through so much trouble to come here, Wu Gen knew that if he didn't give him face, he would suffer a bit in the fight.
Under Zhang Yi's guidance, Wu Gen followed him along the large field.
The further he walked, the more Wu Gen frowned.
At this time, the soil in the fields has not completely thawed, and many people are already working in the fields. Obviously, these people are not farming their own land, and there are many people watching them.
Some people brought their families with them, and even their children, who were only a few years old, were pulling plows and fertilizing in the fields, and their feet were pale and frozen by the ice water. If the execution is a little slow, a few big-bodied men will hit the head and face with whips. ..
Some people only wear their underpants in the cold weather and lie down in the water to dig out rocks in the fields little by little to avoid damaging the plowshare when plowing.
This scene is shocking. Wu Gen came from the border area. Although the people there were also in a difficult situation, the enemy was on their side, so the oppression and exploitation of them was not too severe, so as not to cause chaos.
But here, the oppression of the common people became unscrupulous, and everyone became accustomed to it. Even the people who were beaten thought they were unlucky, and there was no trace of resentment in their eyes.
