Asking hexagram 20 taels

(38)

"General, what have you done? These days the city lord has been recruiting people at a high price in the city. He threatened and lured the group of dismissed frontier soldiers. He used all the tricks he could, and he didn't dare to speak harshly. "In the camp of Gubei City, Yuan Xiao was fiddling with a branch of "Fire Tree and Silver Flower" in his hand, and the captain raised his thumbs with both hands and leaned into his ear and said.

"I just took something." He put the worthless branch on the table with a "click", straightened his cuffs and replied, "——How about the disbanded frontier army?"

When the captain was asked about the business, he straightened his body and replied solemnly: "General, a total of 830 people have been dismissed from the frontier army. Now 810 three people have returned to the team. They are now waiting for orders in the camp of Gubei City."

"Not bad. So many people are willing to come back."

"The new city lord of Gubei City withheld their salaries for three years without paying them. Now as long as they are willing to return to the army, Yuan Jiajun will make up for it. I think that as long as they are people, they will be willing. Besides, Gubei City has been invaded by Dawan for a long time. Most of the frontier troops were born in Si grew up in Si, so he naturally hates Dawan deeply, and also has resentment towards the new city lord, as long as our Yuan Jiajun raises this matter, bloody men will naturally respond."

"Oh, we still have to thank our new city lord. If the city lord hadn't given Yuan Jiajun so many treasures, how could we have been able to subsidize the three-year salary of the [-] frontier troops in Gubei City?" Yuan Xiao pointed to the money on the table. "Fire Tree Silver Flower" branches and leaves, "The precious thing 'Fire Tree Silver Flower' has been divided into only this branch."

"Yeah, I don't know how much the city lord will have to spend to recruit another thousand frontier troops."

"Don't worry about him. Inform the [-] frontier troops to join Yuan's army immediately and practice together with Yuan's army and the government army. If the city lord sends another person, he will also be incorporated." Yuan Xiao stood up, put on his armor, and straightened his head. He put on the helmet and ordered to the captain, "Go out of the city to practice today."

The City Lord's Mansion of Gubei City.

Yuan Xiao's military training was in full swing, but the city lord's mansion was full of gloom.The new city lord is a lord who likes to show off, otherwise he wouldn't be able to build such a mansion with carved beams and pillars in Gubei City, let alone plant a "fire tree and silver flower" in the courtyard of the city lord's mansion.His treasures are all outside, and they were almost moved by Yuan Jiajun a few days ago.

"Hey..." Sitting on the Kang, leaning on the small table with his elbows, the city lord sighed.How can you not sigh?All the treasures were taken away by Yuan Jiajun, and he had to spend a lot of money to bring back the previously disbanded frontier army.

"Master." He was sighing when a bowed servant walked in outside.He quickly stood up and asked, "How's the talk going?"

The servant also sighed: "Hey...Master, no way. Those people don't want to come back."

The city lord got angry when he heard this: "What's the matter with this group of people? They don't want to come back even if they give money, and they don't want to eat fine wine if they toast."

"I don't know. They said that they would only come back after asking the city lord to pay back the three years' salary owed to them."

"Delusion!" He flicked his sleeves and turned around the room with his hands behind his back. "It's just too deceitful!" His house has been almost moved by Yuan Jiajun now, and even the silver charcoal that has been burning since the beginning of winter has listened to it. , replaced it with ordinary charcoal, and still didn't raise enough money to recruit people, "What about the recruits? How many recruits have you recruited?"

"If you go back to the city lord, there are less than six hundred recruits in total, and they are all registered and placed on your desk."

Six hundred... This number is definitely not enough.The city lord raised his hand high when he heard it, took a deep breath, and seemed to be about to curse, but after trying twice, he still put down his hand, and shook his head helplessly, "Send it to Daying."

"But the city lord, this is too different from the requirements of a thousand frontier troops..." The man grumbled reluctantly.

"That can't be helped! I took out the coffin and recruited these people. What can I do? You and General Yuan killed you, and there are only 600 people, nothing else. I don't believe it He, Yuan Xiao, really dares to sue me with the sage? I am the lord of Gubei City designated by the sage, questioning me is questioning the emperor!" He seemed to have found a backer, and his waist straightened, "If the sage ruled I committed the crime of deceiving the king, and you will also be buried with me!"

"Okay, the slave will hand over the roster to General Yuan."

Yuan Xiao fought fiercely with the natives of Gubei City, but Tang Yuan was in the south of the Yangtze River with Wang Chengqian and Shen Duan, but it was like a cold winter.

Qingfeng powder is the most hated poison and medicine among the Jianghu people, of course it is because it is the most unsolvable medicine for dispersing power.Zhao En said that day, there is a solution to Qingfeng San.That's right, there is indeed a solution, but it is the solution of exchanging lives for lives.

The reason why there is a saying that Qingfeng San Wujie is spread in the Jianghu is also because almost no one is willing to exchange their own lives for the lives of others.Shen Duan asked himself that he had seen countless people who consulted doctors, and also saw countless strange diseases.Some parents bring their children, some lovers bring their lovers, some children bring their parents, no matter how close they seem to the patients, the people who bring the patients to the clinic for consultation are inseparable. Consider yourself some.

I have seen this kind of person even more, willing to die with him, but unwilling to exchange his own life for another's.

It's not something to blame, it's just human nature.

So there is no antidote for Qingfeng San.

"I can!" Wang Chengqian hurriedly took Shen Duan's words, "I am willing to exchange my life for my father's. I am willing!"

Shen Duan shook his head, just about to speak to persuade him, only to hear a violent coughing sound of "cough cough cough", Wang Chengqian's father, the old owner of Bafeng Villa, woke up.

As soon as Mr. Wang woke up, he grabbed his son's hand, and despite his own coughing violently, he said word by word, "Cheng Qian, Wuwei Pavilion hurt me!"

"Father, father, we all know, you should rest at ease and recuperate first."

Only then did Mr. Wang lie back on the bed with peace of mind, calmed down his cough, looked at the strange environment around him and asked, "Chengqian, where is this?"

"Father, this is the inn at the foot of the mountain."

"Where's Eight Winds Villa?"

Wang Chengqian was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head slightly, lowered his eyes to cover up the grief in his eyes: "The villa... the villa has been destroyed."

"Destroyed..." The old owner was lying on the bed. When he heard the answer, he felt as if he had been hit by a stick. "It's ruined..."

"Father, don't be sad, Bafeng Villa is gone, but I am still here, I can rebuild Bafeng Villa!"

Wang Chengqian spoke with great pride, but the old manor owner didn't have his lofty ambition anymore, he just stretched out his hand, as if trying to reach something: "The bitter Taoist..."

"Senior, I'm here." Tang Yuan stood up from the table and walked to his bed.

"I have something to ask you."

"Senior, it's okay to say."

"I want to ask you, did you already know that Bafeng Mountain Villa would be destroyed?" Asked this sentence, the eyes of the old owner suddenly opened, and he looked straight at Tang Yuan with astonishingly bright eyes. Tang Yuan couldn't help being moved by the meaning.

He took a deep breath and replied with difficulty: "Yes. As early as the first time I visited Bafeng Villa, I said that within ten years, Bafeng Villa will be defeated."

"Defeated, defeated..." The old owner chewed on these two words, slowly closed his eyes, and waved Tang Yuan away.

Tang Yuan took two steps back, gave the seat in front of the bed to Wang Chengqian, stepped back outside the door and said to Shen Duan, "Shen Shaoxia, Wang Shaoxia and his son are counting on you. I have to go to Yanshui Pavilion, where little stone and little mud After all, there are still two children, I don’t worry about it.” After pondering for a second, he added, “If something happens to Mr. Wang’s owner, please be sure to explain to Wang Shaoxia.”

Shen Duan nodded, and said: "Don't worry. As long as the Shaoxia finally hand over the group of Wuwei Pavilion to Shen, before that, Shen is the Shaoxia's staff, and he should do his best for the Shaoxia."

"There's no need for the staff, I just don't want to see Wang Chengqian, a sword genius, fall away. He lived for the sword and died for the sword... I hope he can escape my master's orders. ——My master must also be chasing Li Yi now , you don't have to worry too much."

"Since Daoist Tianji and Old Man Bihai have taken action, Shen is naturally relieved."

That night, Tang Yuan bid farewell and rushed to Yanshui Pavilion. It was also on this night that the old owner of Bafeng Villa, who was once a powerful man, committed suicide by committing suicide.

Wang Chengqian cried bitterly, and Chengqian's sword shook, and all swords in the world cried together.

"Wang Shaoxia, my condolences." After Shen Duan was called up by Wang Chengqian, he didn't sleep all night, but finally said these words to Wang Chengqian.

Wang Chengqian had exhausted all his efforts in crying, and he couldn't cry anymore, "Did the bitter Taoist tell you to say this to me?"

Shen Duan was noncommittal, and said, "It's also Shen's comfort to Wang Shaoxia."

"Thank you." Tang Yuan knew the ending, otherwise his father would not have asked him that sentence. Wang Chengqian knew that this matter cannot be blamed on Ku Taoist.Within ten years, Bafeng Villa will be defeated.The bitter Taoist can see it with his eyes, burning down the villa is not a defeat, even the death of the old owner is not a defeat.

And I.

Wang Chengqian knew that there was still me.But, Ku Taoist, the first wrong hexagram since you made a move is about to happen to me.Wang Chengqian stood up on his knees and wiped away the remaining tears on his face.

"Young Xia Shen, tell the world for me that the owner of Bafeng Villa died at the hands of Wuwei Pavilion Xinpai and the little prince of Dawan, Zhao En, and I, Bafeng Villa, will never die with them."

Wang Chengqian thought, what caused Bafeng Villa to get to where it is today.

It probably started from the birth of Fu Fuzhang.If it weren't for the blessings and misfortunes, he wouldn't go to the small teahouse to test the bitter Taoist, he wouldn't be poisoned by Shen Duan, he wouldn't go to Yulin Town to find the antidote, and he wouldn't save Zhao En and fight against the new faction of Wuwei Pavilion.

A chapter of blessings and misfortunes, one blessing and one misfortune.

The side facing Wang Chengqian is a disaster.

The author has something to say:

I’ve actually thought about this chapter of the Martial Arts Conference for a long time. This is the closing part, and it’s also the introduction to the next part of the plot, but I’m really not in a good state recently. My brain is a hundred times better than what I wrote, but I can’t write it. Ah_(:з」∠)_
