Chapter 1043 Ballad at the End of Summer

The old and cheap dog got on the line of Guan Shanhai, and the villain Baldy got the wound medicine.I thought that the unscrupulous bad things would be done soon, but these people seemed to have contracted some kind of "slowly figured out" disease, and the progress of the bad things seemed to be deadlocked after that.

The old cheap dog participated in the dinner party every day and never got tired of it. The little cheap dog was locked in the yard in a daze all day long; Participate in such and such "hero meetings" as written in the book - the book was written by my father, and you say good things and do bad things.

In the blink of an eye, June passed, and Ning Ji even found out the residences of Huang Shan, Huang Jianfei and others through stalking when he was bored, but the two groups of enemies were passive and sabotaged, and made no contribution to the sabotage.With such efficiency, Ning Ji was speechless, and the paralyzed face he kept in the competition venue every day almost became real.

As time goes by, things in the world are of course advancing accordingly.In July, there are more business travelers, Confucian scholars, and warriors from all walks of life, and the atmosphere in the city is full of turmoil, making it even more lively.There are more people clamoring to show the Huaxia Army a good look, and several work teams from the surrounding Huaxia Army are entering Chengdu one after another.

On the second day of July, a conflict broke out at the southern end of the city, causing a fire in the middle of the night, and the blazing flames reflected the sky, as if some bandit had started something in the city.Ning Ji ran all the way to help, but when he arrived at the scene of the fire, all the gangsters had been killed or arrested. The Huaxia Army patrol team responded very quickly, and two "Wulin Heroes" were stubbornly resisting He was beaten to death by soldiers patrolling the streets.

This incident happened suddenly and subsided quickly, but the subsequent disturbances were not small.On the night of the third day of junior high school, Ning Ji went to the old cheap dog to listen to the corner. Wen Shoubin was bringing two trustworthy comrades to drink and chat, while lamenting the feat of a dozen or so heroic soldiers who fought to the death when they were besieged by the Chinese army yesterday On the one hand, they praised their actions for "finding out the layout and reality of the Huaxia Army in Chengdu." As long as these situations are clarified, more righteous men will take action next.

In the past 20 days, Ning Ji has listened to this kind of words countless times, and finally he was able to suppress his anger, hehe sneered.Dozens of brave and righteous men were besieged and fought to the death. A group of green forest people gathered to make trouble. After being discovered, they set fire and fled, and then were arrested.Among them, two masters met two patrolling soldiers. In a two-on-two situation, the two faced each other to decide life and death. The patrolling soldiers came from the battlefield. The other two were also injured a little bit.

If this kind of situation is one-on-one, the outcome is unpredictable, and two-on-two will become this situation. If five people on each side swarm up, it is estimated that the Huaxia Army will not be injured.In such a situation, Ning Ji ran fast and got a little understanding when he arrived at the scene. Unexpectedly, in just one day, it has become such a rumor...

"...I've heard people say that this incident caused a great shock inside the Huaxia Army. When the fire burned, the whole city was shocked. Although it was said that a few people were arrested, the Huaxia Army did not suffer any losses. In fact, five of them died and sixteen were injured. Of course, they dare not say it on the news paper, so they have to whitewash the peace..."

"...In any case, these righteous men are truly a feat. My Wu Dynasty's orthodoxy is immortal, and there are such heroes who will continue... Come, drink, and do..."

"...Hey, I think, nowadays, there is no need to be limited to the orthodox system of the Wu Dynasty. With all due respect, the establishment of the world has its own fault..."

"...I can't hear these words. Scholars of my generation, how can I forget this way of monarch and minister. Are you Wu Qimei's traitor..."

"...Who is a traitor, who is a traitor, the former prince Jun Wu Jiangning succeeded to the throne, then abandoned the people of the city and fled, what is the difference with his father. The sage said, the king, the minister, the father, the father, the son, and the son, now the king is not the same The king and the minister are naturally not like the ministers, but their father and son are quite alike. When you talk about the orthodoxy, I will argue with you. Is this the orthodoxy of one family and one surname, or the orthodoxy taught by the sages? What is the Dao... ..."

"...you deviate from the scriptures and talk nonsense, in vain to call yourself a person who is familiar with sages..."

"...I am upright—"

"...Hey, hey, hey, don't make noise...don't fight..."

The light, shadow and farce in the room merged into a strange silhouette at the end of summer night, the boy sighed and went to the backyard to monitor the girl named Qu Longjun.

Time flows and world affairs protract. After many years, this atmosphere will become the image of his youth.At the end of summer, the sun shines through the treetops, the warm wind blows up the cicadas, or in the afternoon or evening when the thunderstorm comes, the city of Chengdu is noisy. For him who just came down from the mountains and forests or the battlefield, he has a special charm. .

People are fighting in the arena, scholars are chirping and giving pointers, the breath of iron and blood is hidden in the seemingly restrained confrontation, and as time goes by, the tension of waiting for something to happen is still getting higher.Scholars or knights who have just entered the city of Chengdu are getting louder, and occasionally some masters will appear in the arena. The storyteller in mind also followed suit, boasting that the yellow mud hand, the eagle claw, and the old man with six skills are more powerful than the best in the world...

Among them, the girl who often wears a white dress and sits in the room or in the pavilion will also become part of this memory.Due to the slow progress on Guan Shanhai's side, Qu Longjun could only live in the courtyard all day, and the only thing that could move was the little boy by the river. courtyard.

The young girl was silent, and when Wen Shoubin was away, there was always a gloomy look between her brows.She likes to be alone, and doesn't like to be frequently disturbed by servants. When she is quiet, she often sits in a certain position for half an hour. There is only one time when Ning Ji happens to wake up from her sleep, and she doesn't know that she has dreamed. What, the eyes are terrified, the head is sweating profusely, stepped out of bed barefoot, and walked back and forth like a lost soul...

Ning Ji doesn't like these melancholy and depressing things, but monitoring each other every day to see when their conspiracy is launched, it seems to have become a habit during those days.It’s just that after a long time, strange things happened occasionally. One night, there was no one else up and down the small building. Ning Ji sat on the roof and watched the lightning and thunder that started in the distance. Qu Longjun in the room suddenly seemed to be trapped by something. Startled, he looked around, and even asked softly, "Who?"

Ning Ji frowned, thinking that he was not good at learning, could it be that she noticed the disturbance?But she was just sitting quietly on the roof without moving, what could she notice?

The girl looked around the room suspiciously, but finally gave up to no avail. She picked up the pipa and played it against the distant thunderclouds in front of the window for a while.Not long after, Wen Shoubin came back drunk, went upstairs and praised Qu Longjun's performance, and said:

"The whereabouts of the eldest son of the Ning family are erratic, and it is difficult to find out the itinerary in advance. I discussed privately with the monkey and others. It is also because the situation in Chengdu has been tense recently, and there must be a catastrophe. Therefore, the Huaxia army is also extremely nervous. Right now Getting close to him is also likely to cause alarm... Daughter, you have to make long-term plans here. If the gathering in Chengdu fails this time, and the black flag finally passes this level, it will not be difficult for you to find an opportunity to get close to the high-level Huaxia Army... "

"Daughter, but according to father's orders." Qu Longjun said.

"This is also for your safety." Wen Shoubin said, "Daughter, look at the lightning and thunder in the distance, just like the situation in Chengdu today, it will come here soon... the Black Banner Army I don't know how many benevolent and righteous people will perish in this chaos... A feat, Long Jun, as you will see next, this is a heroic and heroic act, and it will not be inferior to what it was back then Yes, back then..." He hesitated for a moment, he was having a hard time finding an example, and finally said: "It won't be inferior to... Zhou Tong's Tie Nianhan!"

Stupid!

Thunderstorm is indeed coming, Ning Ji sighed and went downstairs to go home.

The fire caused by the fire on the second day of July was still brewing. When the number of martyrs and the number of Huaxia Army casualties that were circulated in private had doubled by three to five times, the Huaxia Army announced on the newsprint the upcoming A series of specific measures, these measures include several core points.

First of all, on the first day of August, the Chinese Fifth Army, Seventh Army and the 29th Army stationed in Tanzhou will hold a grand military parade in Chengdu.At the same time, a prisoner offering ceremony will be held, and some generals of the Jurchen army and some villains captured during the Southwest War will be publicly sentenced and dealt with.

After the military parade is completed, the process of the first People's Congress of the Huaxia Army will begin on the third day of August to discuss all major line and direction issues for the Huaxia Army.

And from mid-August, the Huaxia Army will select both civil and military talents from the outside world at the same time. In terms of the selection of soldiers and generals, the performance of the world's number one martial arts competition will be considered as a bonus item—it may even become an exception. channels of recruitment.As for the selection of literati, the Huaxia Army announced for the first time the assessment criteria for mathematics, Gephysics thinking, and Gephysics general knowledge that will be carried out in the exam. Of course, it will also appropriately assess officials' views and cognition of the general trend of the world.

The announcement of this specific project on the news paper caused an uproar afterwards. The military parade and sacrifice of captives is naturally the most popular project for ordinary people, and it has also aroused the deep vigilance of people from all walks of life.The selection of civil and military talents is a real draw from the bottom. As soon as the news of this kind of external selection comes out, people from all walks of life who come to Chengdu will feel "uneasy".

Some literati called on others not to participate in these selections on the news paper, and some people analyzed the deviation of this selection from various aspects. For example, what was most emphasized in the news paper was that they did not know the so-called "Mathematics" and "Gewu Xue Thinking" and other self-assessments , The Huaxia Army is to select officials, not to select officials. This is to destroy the whole life of the world's scholars. It is a real way to fight against Confucianism, with sinister and dirty intentions.

Some people also began to talk about how to select real officials for their moral conduct, citing classics and discussing the pros, cons, and rationality of many selection methods in history.Of course, even though there was an uproar on the surface, many scholars who entered the city still bought a few books such as "Arithmetic" and "Gewu" compiled and published by the Huaxia Army, and read them overnight.It's not that Confucian scholars don't study mathematics, it's just that they have too little time to use and study in the past, but compared with ordinary people, they naturally have various advantages.

It is also for this reason that for the selection in Chengdu this time, those who are really famous, and who point to the great Confucianism and celebrities who go to pay homage to the Marquis, protest the most strongly. Scholars just resisted verbally, secretly delighted, and even some businessmen who came to Chengdu, the accountants who followed the businessmen, and the masters were eager to move: If the competition is counted, those great scholars are not as good as me, labor and management come here to sell things. Can be an official?

People were wary of these measures, and there was a lot of chatter, but most of them showed an indifferent attitude towards the news of the conference.People who don't know how to do it think that it has nothing to do with them anyway, while those who know a little bit sneer, thinking that it is nothing more than a show: the matter of the Huaxia Army, you would rather the devil decide it with one word, why bother to hide it and hold a conference to fool people...

The atmosphere in the city was chaotic and tense. When Ning Ji went to the old cheap dog, a group of people were also yelling at Ning Yi for his sinister intentions.Some people also reminded that once these troops enter the city, it means that their aftermath after the previous war has been completely completed. The recruitment of the puppet army and the placement of the Jurchen captives have all come to an end. Before the parade.

Regarding the "hands-on" in the city, these Confucian scholars mentioned it the most. Wen Shoubin said it quite naturally, because he had already made a reservation to wait here with his "daughter" until the matter was over before making some considerations. Take it easy, and your words and deeds throughout the day are also heroic and generous.

After seeing so much, Ning Ji no longer even sneered.

He lived alone in the small courtyard, hiding his identity, but occasionally people would naturally come over.On the afternoon of the sixth day of July, Miss Chuyi came from Zhang Village and came to see him for a party at her father’s place. When she arrived at the place, many people had already arrived. , Ba Dao's uncles, and the ones they greeted are Chen Fan, Ji Qian'er and his wife who have already arrived in Chengdu.

For this heroic, sunny and handsome uncle of the Chen family, the children of the Ning family all liked him very much, especially Ning Ji, who taught him the most boxing techniques, and he was regarded as one of his personal disciples.This sudden meeting, everyone was very excited, chattering with Chen Fan about how he killed Yin Shuke, Ning Ji also told him what he had seen and heard on the battlefield over the past year, Chen Fan was also happy Speaking of speculation, he took off his clothes and competed with Ning Ji for the scars on his body. This childish and boring behavior was stopped by a group of people with fists and kicks.

If you can't compete with scars, then you will test martial arts. Chen Fan then asked Ning Xi, Chu Yi, and Ning Ji to form a team. He started a one-on-three competition. This proposal was approved by the enthusiastic crowd.

"You have been pampered all these years, don't be beaten to death." Fang Shuchang laughed.

"I bet Chen Fan won't survive thirty moves." Du Sha laughed.

"Ning Ji is cruel and merciless, you have to be careful." Zheng Qiming said.

Ji Qian'er smiled and said, "On the first day of the junior high school, he hurt his left leg, stab him on the left side."

Chen Fan cast a helpless look from there, but saw Xigua coming over with the box of the Ba Dao: "Take it easy, don't hurt too much. After you finish the fight, I will teach you a lesson."

Chen Fan didn't show weakness: "Do you two go together? I'll let you two."

Ning Yi put his hands behind his back and smiled calmly: "Let's talk about it after my son and daughter-in-law. Kill him!" He remembered Ji Qian'er's words, "Stab his left foot!"

"It seems to be the left leg."

"It's all the same, with the same meaning."

"Don't break anything."

A group of master-level masters and the inner demons mixed in among the masters were laughing and laughing.Over there, Ning Xi was holding a stick and Chuyi was holding a sword. Ning Ji dragged a whole weapon over there. He chose a pair of gloves and was going to fight the enemy with the little Vajra fist. While putting on the gloves , casually asked: "Uncle Chen, why did you sneak into the city? The army hasn't come yet, right?"

"Of course your father is planning to plot people. Even if Lin Zongwu comes here this time, he won't be able to leave Chengdu." Chen Fan didn't take a weapon, but wrapped his fists with cloth strips. Under the sun, his fists hit hard. Together.

"Are you ready?" he laughed. "Come on!"

"Uncle Chen, wait, I still..."

Before the words fell, the three people on the opposite side charged at the same time!Ning Ji's fist made a whistling sound, like a tiger pounced on——

　Serve the quarantined people.
