Soul echo

Chapter 657 "Tuna Method"

Holding an umbrella, Meng Yusheng walked slowly in the street.

The light rain was pattering down, and the vendors and passers-by who were in a hurry to close their stalls covered their heads with their sleeves and walked straight.

People in the shops facing the street are complaining that it has been raining for three days, and it is this rain that has made their business difficult in recent days.

The jade pendant hanging around his waist swayed slightly, Meng Yusheng looked down and kept walking.

After a while, he came to the gate of the Jingzhou government.

The gatekeeper leaned against the door frame and yawned. When he saw Meng Yusheng walking up the steps, he shook his body and pulled himself together.

"Who is coming?"

Coming under the eaves, Meng Yusheng put away the oil-paper umbrella, shook it, and then handed it over, "Meng Jinyu, come from Shuntian Mansion, and come here to visit your acting prefect."

From Shuntian Mansion?
The gatekeeper looked Meng Yusheng suspiciously up and down, muttered twice, and asked Meng Yusheng to stay outside the door and let him go in to make an announcement.

The door clerk turned around and walked into the yamen. After walking a few steps, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Someone from Shuntian Mansion?Their Lord Zhong is only in charge of Jingzhou. He said that sooner or later someone will take over Jingzhou. So, is this person from Shuntian Mansion the new prefect of Jingzhou?
Feeling uneasy, the doorman walked to Zhong Ye's office.

Although the door was open in front of him, Meng Yusheng didn't go in. Instead, he stood outside the door, quietly watching the rain lines like bead curtains outside the eaves.

On the surface, there is no difference between Jingzhou now and the Jingzhou he saw more than 20 years ago, but this is only a superficial phenomenon.

If you observe carefully, you can find that the streets have become much cleaner and tidy, and there are fewer hooligans wandering on the streets.

This was Zhong Ye's first month in charge of Jingzhou, and there was such a change. I have to say that this person is indeed a bit powerful.

Leaning on an umbrella, Meng Yusheng waited outside the door for a long time before the gatekeeper ran back and said, "My lord, Mr. Zhong is kind."

Hearing this, Meng Yusheng raised his eyebrows, picked up his umbrella, and walked into the yamen.

The gatekeepers led the way, but the official gate was not closed.

"Aren't you AWOL?" Meng Yusheng glanced back at the open government gate, "What if someone comes in?"

"Hey! Those are old rules!"

The door clerk said carelessly: "Master Zhong doesn't have so many rules, as long as he stands upright, and since Master Zhong took over Jingzhou, the gate of the government has never been closed except at night. Master Zhong said, But if someone in Jingzhou is so desperate that he has to go into the Yamen to steal something, it is his dereliction of duty, so the gate is not closed."

Hearing this sentence, Meng Yusheng couldn't help frowning.

It was indeed a bit arrogant for Zhong Ye to say that, but from the words of this doorman, it can be heard that in the past month, nothing in the government seems to have been stolen.

——So powerful?
"Master Zhong, I have brought you here." The gatekeeper stood at the door and shouted.

Zhong Ye, who was sitting behind the desk, raised his head and nodded slightly, "Thank you for your hard work, it's almost noon, please uncle Ou prepare to handover with the next shift."

The gatekeeper smiled, nodded and bowed, turned and left.

Standing outside the door, Meng Yusheng exchanged a glance with Zhong Ye, chuckled, lifted his clothes, and walked in.

Meng Yusheng pulled a chair casually, and sat down opposite Zhong Ye, "You can be so polite with a doorman, and the doorman can change shifts at noon, Mr. Zhong, do you know that you have committed public anger?"

"What is the crowd?" Zhong Ye asked blankly, "The people of the family are the crowd? The high officials in the court are the crowd? Only those with high positions and powers can be called 'the crowd', and ordinary people are equally nothing?"

Hearing this, Meng Yusheng shook his head and chuckled again: "Master Zhong doesn't need to be so angry, my 'public anger' is just a reference and has no real meaning."

After a pause, he continued: "Master Zhong, you and we are people from different worlds, so please don't look at our world from the perspective of your world. Every world has different rules. Now, Master Zhong You stepped on the line."

"So they asked you to warn me?"

The corner of Zhong Ye's mouth raised, "Ridiculous!"

The emperor did not tell him that a new magistrate was sent, so this guy in front of him must not be the new magistrate who came to take over Jingzhou.

Meng Yusheng represented the aristocratic family, and Zhong Ye's behavior towards the Jingzhou aristocratic family was too violent, and had already crossed the line they allowed.

"Is collusion with Abyss also within the scope of your permission?" Zhong Ye's eyes gradually became fierce, and his fingers tapped his arm impatiently, "Answer me!"

"...This is naturally not allowed." Meng Yusheng shook his head and said, "It's just what you did, Mr. Zhong..."

"What's wrong with my approach?" Zhong Ye interrupted Meng Yusheng, and asked in a deep voice.

After a moment of silence, Meng Yusheng sighed: "Master Zhong, you are too hostile to us."

"I can't stand you standing on the heads of ordinary people and shitting and pissing!" Zhong Ye snorted, "It's obviously a bunch of parasites, but you still dress up noble, ordinary people can't see it, and I can't see it?"

Hearing these words, Meng Yusheng's eyes twitched, "Without our rule, the common people are just a mob. What's more, even without us, there will be other aristocratic families, so why can't it be us?"

"You think too highly of yourself!" Zhong Ye said coldly, "If it weren't for you aristocratic families to monopolize knowledge, there would be more talents who are more powerful than you among the common people. After all, you only accounted for the population of Dongtu Less than a thousandth, how many people in the world?

"What's more, apart from knowledge monopoly, the formation of aristocratic families is caused by land mergers, and people have a natural instinct to form groups. As long as these factors are shielded, even if aristocratic families can be formed, they cannot be formed like they are today. A high class!"

As he spoke, Zhong Ye couldn't help laughing, "What you are going through and what you are experiencing is just a piece of history on Earth. Looking back from the lower reaches of the long river of history, many problems in the past can be easily resolved."

After listening, Meng Yusheng took a deep breath, "Zhong Ye, you are only one person, how can you fight against the whole country?"

Zhong Ye is a martial arts master, and it is said that he is quite powerful. If it is not necessary, they are not willing to stand against him.

"……Ah!"

Zhong Ye burst out laughing suddenly, and looked up and down the thin middle-aged man sitting across from him.

Meng Yusheng looked like the ancients he had seen in history books, and his thinking was as stale and narrow-minded as the "ancients", which stinks badly.

"You can't represent the 'country'." Zhong Ye slowed down his tone and said softly, "You are just parasites who think they are the 'masters', because you can't represent the fundamental interests of the country or the broad masses of people , your interests are in conflict with the interests of the common people. Sooner or later, the common people will know that their contract with you is actually a shackle. As long as they break this shackle, they will be able to gain real freedom and take away those things that belong to them. Get everything back, and that day is not far away!"

Zhong Ye's words made Meng Yusheng's eyebrows twitch, and his arm muscles tensed several times, but in the end he gave up the plan to do it.

The guy who sat across from him and "spread nonsense" is also a martial arts master. Although he is young, he may be stronger than himself. If he does something, he may be the one who loses...

"Mr. Meng, the rain has stopped."

Zhong Ye has already seen the "weakness" of this person in front of him - although Meng Yusheng is also a legend like himself, he was raised by the landlord class, so like most landlords, he regrets doing great things It is a miracle that the class characteristic of forgetting one's life for small gains can become a legend.

"If you still have time, I suggest you go to various bookstores in Jingzhou Fucheng."

The corners of Zhong Ye's lips curled up, "Look at how I broke your knowledge monopoly..."

Meng Yusheng stared, his lips trembling.

After freezing in place for a moment, he didn't say anything, turned around and left Zhong Ye's office, and walked out of the official residence.

The rain had stopped, and all the bookstores reopened for business. Meng Yusheng walked into one of them and asked Zhong Ye what they were selling here.

Then, a large pile of books was placed in front of him.

"Analysis of Spear Techniques", "Analysis of Sword Techniques", "Analysis of Sword Techniques", "Analysis of Boxing Techniques"...

There is nothing particularly amazing in the content, but it is quite satisfactory and can teach people how to use their weapons correctly.

But at the end, there is no one without "Tuna Fa"!

There are no cryptic formulas, only the combination of movement and stillness, each step is described in detail, even illiterate people can understand it through the pattern, it is real...

——"Tuna Method"!
