The dream of a lonely hero
Chapter 2
Early Northern Song Dynasty. In Yanjiazhuang, under the jurisdiction of Tuzheng County, Dingzhou, there was a member of the Yan family named Bozheng. Although he was born in troubled times, he was still satisfactory under his hard work. He was willing to do good and charitable. He had two sons. The eldest son, Yan Yun, was only ten years old. Zi Yanfeng and Xiao Yanyun are over half a year old.
One early morning, it was cold and freezing, and the snow was as heavy as a mat. The snow covered the sky and covered the ground silently, as if countless torn cotton wool rolled down from the sky.
Yan Yun, ten years old, has a sallow complexion and kind eyes. His hair is tied up in a bun with a red silk ribbon. He wears a tight-fitting Tsing Yi, a pair of black cotton boots, and holds a bamboo stick. He is practicing martial arts in the corridor of the study room.
Yan Yun's qualifications were mediocre, but he practiced martial arts very hard. Before the fifth watch, while his father, mother, younger brother, and servants were still sleeping, he got up to practice martial arts. His little face and hands were red from the cold. Suddenly a Taoist priest jumped out from outside the courtyard wall. His whole body was covered with snow, and he stumbled and fell into the snow. Yan Yun hurriedly ran over and called,"Taoist! Taoist! Wake up, wake up."
The Taoist priest had a rectangular face, a pale complexion, three short strands of beard under his cheeks, his eyes were tightly closed, his lips were black and purple, and a pair of black sword-shaped eyebrows stuck far away from his temples. He was more than eight feet tall, nearly thirty years old, and had a mouth on his back. Cut Yuntai's sword. Yan Yun shook the Taoist priest's shoulders and kept calling. The Taoist priest struggled to open his eyes, looked around alertly, and tried to get up. Yan Yun handed the bamboo stick in his hand to the Taoist priest, who took it and supported his body. There was a noise outside the hospital:"Quick, quick, don't go too far." The Taoist priest looked around for a hiding place, and at a glance he saw the door of the east wing ajar. Yan Yun saw the Taoist priest's intention:"It's safe there, firewood room, come with me." He led the Taoist who was walking with difficulty into the east wing. The east wing was more than ten feet long and wide, and was filled with firewood and fodder. Yan Yun led the Taoist priest to a suitable place in the northeast corner of the wing and settled down. He tiptoed to the window and poked a small hole with a grass branch to look out. Wait and see. From time to time, a few flickering figures in the vast snow curtain searched around the courtyard. Because the snow fell too hard, the traces of Yan Yun and the Taoist priest on the snow were covered by heavy snow. After searching for a long time, they found nothing and walked away.
Yan Shuda, the third younger brother of Yan Bozheng outside the Yan Yuan, was a figure in the world and had made many friends in the world. How could a person wander in the world without getting stabbed? Yanjiazhuang became their place of residence for a while, and Yan Yun also received many Today's scene is no stranger to the ten-year-old Yan Yun.
That Taoist priest was none other than"Yunli Tianzun" Wu Tianzhen. He was carrying the"Five Poison Penetrating Bone Nails" on his body. He could only use 30% of his body's power. The other seven were able to withstand the poisonous attack on the heart. After passing through the ghosts and the"Eight-Armed God""Lin Tiefeng had been chasing for most of the night, and now he was exhausted. He was sitting on a pile of firewood, his limbs numb and unable to move. Yan Yun said,"Taoist Priest, I'll call daddy to find a doctor for you." He stood up to leave, but Wu Tianzhen hurriedly stopped him,"No, no! Good boy, help me take off the gourd from my waist and pour out three pills for me." I'll take it." Yan Yun did as Wu Tianzhen said, and Wu Tianzhen swallowed the three pills hard,"Child, take out the paper bag from my arms." Yan Yun took out a fist-sized paper bag from Wu Tianzhen's arms and said,"Taoist Priest, what are you going to do?""?
""Take it, I'll tell you later," Wu Tianzhen replied. For a moment, he closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, adjusting his breathing in and out. For a moment, his face kept twitching, beads of sweat as big as soybeans kept dripping down, his whole body was shaking, and his head was white. He suddenly shouted loudly, and the eight"Five Poison Bone-penetrating Nails" on his back were forced out by Wu Tianzhen's superb internal strength, and they"pop-pop" fell on the haystack,"Children, handful, handful, paper bag- - Open - medicine - apply - on - back - wound."
Yan Yun did as Wu Tianzhen said.
Wu Tianzhen calmed down for a while, his face turned blue and white, and his lips turned red:"My child, you what is it call"?
"My name is Yanyun"
"Yanyun, a good name, never forget the shame of his son Emperor Shi Jingtang ceding the sixteen states of Yanyun to the Khitan. Thanks! Go ahead and remember not to tell anyone that I am here, including your parents!"
Yan Yun looked at the solemn-faced Taoist priest and nodded,"Yeah, yeah" and walked out of the east wing. He hides this from his father every day Mother and others brought food to Wu Tianzhen. On the early morning of the third day, Yan Yun walked into the east wing with a food box, but the Taoist priest was no longer there.
"Yanyun, Yanyun, Mr. Zhu is sick today and has no classes. Yan Gang, Yan Zhao, Yan Hu, and Yan Ye are waiting for you. Come on, go to Liulinpo to play and fight." Yan Feng, the younger brother outside the room call him
"good! good! Come on, come on." Yan Yun responded and ran out of the room.
Mr. Yan was thirty years old, well-read in poetry and books, well-informed, of medium height, with frowning eyebrows. He was pacing in the hall. Madam Yan, Mrs. Xie, was also helpless and stood aside..Yan
Yuanwai complained:"It’s all you, it’s all you!"Send a letter to Shuda and Yuan Zhong"!
Xie said aggrievedly:"My second uncle Zhongxing was imprisoned by the county magistrate at the beginning of the year. He sent a lot of money. He gave away two to three hundred thousand money. That county Ling still keeps extorting money. It’s really a bottomless pit that can’t be filled. When will it end? Not to mention, for more than two months, you have visited the prison several times, and you haven't even seen your second uncle's face. If you don't find your third uncle to reach them, you have to find a way! You can’t just watch a family’s fortune be wiped out!"
What’s going on?
The magistrate of Tuzheng County, Jin Huarong, used power to make profits, forced and exacted levies, and levied excessive amounts of money, causing many families to lose their fortunes and their families. A year ago, another He made a clever plan to steal the people's wealth and support, and arbitrarily enclosed the land and called it to build a Jianjiao Military Field, and forcibly expropriated 300 acres of fertile land outside Yuan Yuan. Six months later, there was no sign of building a Jianjiao Military Field. Yan Zhongxing, Yuanwai's second brother, went to the county government to ask for an explanation. Unexpectedly, he was beaten by the county magistrate Jin Huarong for disturbing the court. Yan Zhongxing was beaten with a black nose, swollen face and bruises all over his body. He was so angry that he went to Dingzhou Prefectural Government to appeal. The governor Li Weidong sent officers to escort Yan Zhongxing to Tuzheng. The county government handed over the case to the county magistrate Jin Huarong for trial. This time it was tragic. Yan Zhongxing was accused of resisting the imperial court and disrupting the military affairs of Tuzheng County and was sentenced to death for collaborating with the enemy. In order to seek greater benefits, Jin Huarong Yan Zhongxing was temporarily imprisoned in the county prison, and he would not give up until Yuanwai was drained dry.
Yuanwai Yan no longer allowed Xie to distinguish:"You, you! The views of women and others. The third brother and his group are all fearless of their master. If they don’t bring the Tuzheng County Government into chaos, they will not stop. How will it end? How will it end?"!
"Don't be afraid, brother, don't be afraid, brother. With my eight brothers here, you will have no worries." A lame man in his thirties, leaning on an iron crutch, which was as thick as his wrist and more than six feet long, with a gourd hanging on his waist, was led by a banker. Limping into the hall. This lame man is Shang Yuanzhong, the eldest of the eight sworn brothers of Yan Shuda,"Bangfeng Tieguai". He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a short stature. The book hints that these eight brothers are famous in the world."Eight Immortals of Yanzhao", the eldest"Guangfeng Tieguai" Shang Yuanzhong, the second eldest"Short-legged Horse Bear" Qian Zhuotong, the third eldest"Slim-faced Leijun" Yan Shuda, the fourth eldest"Big Belly Mi Tuo" Lu Xingde, the fifth The"fallen-leaf scholar" Miao Yanjun, the sixth"Dong Xiao Lang Jun" Xiao Daiying, the seventh"Lotus Han Girl" Liu Qiniang, the eighth"Yun Pushing Boy" Fan Yuntong, all have unique skills and hate evil as much as enemies, so they are called Jianghu artists. , in fact, he did some business of performing chivalry, robbing the rich and helping the poor, hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and eradicating violence. Thirteen years ago, Shang Yuanzhong was hunted down by his enemies, and was saved by Yan Bozheng, Yan Zhongxing, and Yan Shuda. Life.
Yan Yuanwai general"Guangfeng Tieguai" Shang Yuanzhong was welcomed into the hall. Mr. Xie saw the ceremony and left the main room.
Shang Yuanzhong said:"Who do you think your brother is? He didn't tell you anything about such a big thing in the family, and he complained. Sister-in-law, tell me what you should do"
"Yuan Zhong, it doesn’t matter, my eldest brother can handle it."
"Brother, I am angry that you are still hiding this from me at this time. Brother, don't worry about me causing trouble later. Doesn't the dog officer just want money? My eight brothers have already prepared it, with enough money of six hundred thousand. Let the dog official live for a few more days first, wait for this matter to subside, and then take his head after a year and a half."
"Yuan Zhong, you can’t do murder!"
Shang Yuanzhong glared and said:"There are several corrupt officials like Jin Huarong and Li Weidong. I will kill them without blinking an eye."
"Tuzheng County is an important border town. The county magistrate Jin Huarong also serves as an inspector of the Dingzhou Army and Horses Command. Li Weidong also serves as the supervisor of the Dingzhou Army and Horses Command. If he dies, the Khitan of the Liao Kingdom will not know about it and will definitely take advantage of the chaos. Come in, then the people will surely suffer from swords and soldiers. Aren’t we the sinners who want to do justice?"?
"What the elder brother said is true, but if the people do not suffer from the swords and soldiers, if they are trampled on by the dog officials wantonly, the people will be unlucky. It is either an official disaster or a military disaster. Where is the way to survive? Where is the way to survive?"
Yan Yuanwai was silent.
"Brother, what time is it now? There is war and chaos. In just forty years, the Liang, Tang, Jin, Han, and Wu dynasties have changed. Emperors change like a revolving door, faster than a prostitute changing a prostitute. The people are in dire straits, and the animals are living in poverty. Uneasy, the people rely on the court and government to live in peace and stability in the country, that isI hope the wild boar will not survive the New Year!
" Yan Yuanwai burst into tears:"Yuan Zhong, ten years ago, Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty led his army to invade Bianliang, Tokyo, and carried out"grasping valleys" along the way. Corpses littered the fields and blood flowed into rivers. My father, my mother, a pair of children, and dozens of Yan family members, old and young, were trampled like mud by Liao bandits and horses. The people on the border will never have peace unless foreign troubles are eliminated! The imperial court has more than 100,000 troops stationed at the frontier. Even if they are just careless, they must be a deterrent to the Liao Gang." When
Yan Yuanwai talked about his sadness, Shang Yuanzhong couldn't help but shed tears and changed the subject:"Brother, let's not talk anymore, it's urgent now. It's to rescue Zhong Xing."
As he said this, a banker led six men and one woman into the main room.
"Brother, how is my second brother?"My eight brothers have prepared the money. The donkey cart containing the money is parked in the yard. Please tell the dealers to unload the cart quickly!" The speaker is nearly thirty years old, tall, with thin cheeks and a beard. , with triangular eyes, holds a two-foot-long bronze fishing drum in his left hand, and holds a three-foot-long bronze simple board in his right hand. This is Yan Shuda, the third among the"Eight Immortals","Slim-faced Lei Jun". Followed by the second"Pumpy Horse" Xiong"Qian Zhuotong" has a short figure, slightly fat, double eyelids, white square face, three long beards, and two silver yin and yang boards around his waist, each two feet long. The fourth child,"Big Belly Amitabha" Lu Xingde, has a fat brain and intestines. , big head, big eyes, big teeth, pot belly, bronze face, hair in a bun tied with red silk, holding a banana fan made of cooked copper. The fifth"fallen leaf scholar", Miao Yanjun, is well-dressed, handsome, with a back A fallen-leaf green-edged sword. Xiao Daiying, the sixth"Dong Xiao Lang Jun", has a face like a crown jade, and a purple gold flute, three feet long, stuck in his waist. Liu Qiniang, the seventh"Lotus Han Girl", is nearly 20 years old and has a tall figure. Slender, with hair all over her head, an oval face, phoenix eyes, and rosy cheeks. She holds a lotus in her hand. The flower stem is made of golden silk and soft rattan. It is seven feet long. The flower stem three feet away from the flower plate is covered with half-inch long barbed thorns. The mouth of the flower plate is large. The petals are made of gold and silver. Fan Yuntong, the eighth"Tuiyun Boy", is seventeen or eighteen years old, with an apple face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He carries a flower basket made of iron in his left hand. The flower basket is filled with colorful flowers, but it is actually a hidden weapon. The size of a duck egg is made of iron, and the right hand holds a plum flower bone flower more than two feet long, which is also made of iron. Yan
Shuda and others were welcomed into the hall by the official Yan, and ordered the dealers to unload the carts, and then discussed with the Eight Immortals to rescue Yan Zhong The plan was being carried out.
During the discussion, a banker came in a panic and said,"Executive member!" Outside the membership! The county magistrate's official, Hong Ke, is here."
Officer Yan asked the Eight Immortals to avoid the hall.
"Officer Yan is very impressive! A middle-aged man with skinny, wizened, bow-legged words walked into the main room and spoke contemptuously.
Officer Yan greeted him with a smile:"Steward Hong, please forgive me!" Forgive me! Yan's poor etiquette, bear with me, bear with me"!
"Stop talking nonsense! How can Hong afford it? It doesn't matter if you are disrespectful to Hong, isn't Hong just a servant? But this servant Hong came here on behalf of the county magistrate. If my county magistrate hadn't protected your brother Yan Zhongxing, who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, he wouldn't be able to behead him even if he had eighteen heads. Did you know! Did you know!"
"That is, that is"
"That is, what a fart! You have such a shy face, but you don’t feel ashamed at all. Who do you need me to say?"
"The money is ready, six hundred thousand dollars"
"Six hundred thousand dollars! Six hundred thousand dollars! It’s no use. My master has put in so much trouble for your reckless brother. The state has repeatedly urged Yan Zhongxing to severely punish Yan Zhongxing and force my master to be executed immediately, but my master has resisted. This, What a huge risk this took, and it cost an unknown amount of money, six hundred thousand dollars, and you fucking sent them away to beg for food!"
"Butler Hong, didn’t you say a few days ago that you could bail out my brother with six hundred thousand dollars?"
"You are so damn stupid! It was six hundred thousand dollars a few days ago. What day is it now? There are still a few days before New Year's Eve. If you don't take care of the various gods and immortals in the state who want your brother's life, then your brother will have no choice but to go to the Lord of Hell to celebrate the New Year!"
"Butler Hong! Butler Hong! Sorry for my stupidity, but I hope you can reveal the secret. What is the current price?"Yan Yan took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and gave it to Butler Hong.
Butler Hong accepted the silver and half of his stern expression said,"Two thousand dollars." He looked at Yuan Yan with a look of embarrassment on his face."I know, two thousand dollars." It’s not a small amount to you, but it’s not a big amount either. Can you avoid disaster if you lose money? Think about it again, is money more important, or is your brother’s life more important?"
"Of course, brother's life is important, but even if I lose everything, it's not worth two thousand dollars."
"I have exhausted all my benevolence and righteousness. If you cry for poverty again, I can't help you! If you don't want to pay a mere two thousand dollars, then just wait and collect your brother's body."
"Butler Hong, you'd better wait for your master to collect the body for you!"Shang Yuanzhong came out of the back hall with an iron cane"bang bang", followed by seven brothers Qian Zhuotong, Yan Shuda, Lu Xingde, Miao Yanjun, Xiao Daiying, Liu Qiniang, and Fan Yuntong, each holding a sword, each with an angry look on his face. , murderous as a ferocious spirit. Just now, the seven brothers heard Butler Hong's imposing manner in the back hall, and their lungs almost burst with anger. They could no longer hold back, but the eldest brother Shang Yuanzhong didn't signal, so they didn't have an attack.
Butler Hong, take a look. The eyes of the eight strangers were blazing with anger, and they had the potential to eat them alive. They had never seen such a formation before, and they turned pale with shock. They pretended to be calm,"Yan - Mr. Yan, this - this is——"
Before Yan Bozheng could reply, Shang Yuanzhong gritted his teeth and replied:"Friends other than Yan Yuan!"
Butler Hong was speechless:"Yan Mansion is full of guests, don't bother, don't bother, take one step first, take one step first."
Shang Yuanzhong said angrily:"You might as well make a friend." He casually grabbed Hong Guan's collar and lifted it gently, like carrying a chicken, walked to the yard and placed it on the ground. Yan Bozheng and all the knights also came out.
Shang Yuanzhong struck a four-finger-thick stone table in the courtyard with his palm. There was a loud"snap" sound, and the stone table split into two parts."Steward Hong, are your bones and muscles as strong as this?"
Hong Guan's family was paralyzed with fear. Fall to the ground. Shang Yuanzhong picked up Hong Guan's house and swung it towards the jujube tree that was ten feet tall. Hong Guan's house got stuck on the branch of the tree and winked at the eighth"Lan Caihe" Fan Yuntong.
Fan Yuntong took out several"flowers" from the flower basket and slapped them on the edges of Butler Hong's body. The flowers made of iron were nailed to the crown and thick branches, and the thinner branches were interrupted."My eyes are not good." , whether you live or die depends on your luck."
Butler Hong was already frightened out of his wits and begged for mercy:"Spare-spare my life! Spare my life! Master, have mercy on me. Every wronged person has his own debtor. He doesn't care about my affairs. He doesn't care about my affairs."
Shang Yuanzhong saw that the heat had come:"Hong Butler, it's not difficult to survive, it just depends on whether you tell the truth."
Butler Hong was frightened:"Uncle! Uncle! Let me tell you the truth."
"Yan Zhongxing, how are you now?"
"Except for the two members of Yan, he——he"
"If you don’t say it again, I don’t want to hear it anymore!"
