Chapter 61: The old sword is deeply loved, and the old love is unforgettable
“The new-born seedling should work hard, take root, sprout, break the ground, sprout branches, scatter leaves, and then receive rain, dew, and sunlight. It blooms in the wind and bears fruit in the rain. Once mature, when the breeze blows, it will take root everywhere.
After that, it will continue to grow..."
Mr. Xu Yuanshou held a flower in his hand! A dandelion blows away the fluffy flowers, and countless seeds float away in the wind.
“Killing people still makes me uncomfortable!”
Yun Zhao is still not used to Mr. Xu’s teaching method, which is similar to that of Buddha holding a flower and smiling, because listening to the class in this way will be very uncomfortable. tired.
"This is back to the old tune of 'nature is inherently good' and 'nature is inherently evil'.
Yun Zhao, do you think you are a bad person or a good person? "
"You have seven lives in your hands, and you are still trying your best to murder more people. Besides, it is too much to say that you are a good person."
"Very good, you see. There are still good thoughts in your heart. Although you have done some evil things, your heart is still full of kindness."
"Why do I feel so awkward?"
" Oh, this is the theory of Buddhism. Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately!”
“I want to know what you think of my behavior?”
“I don’t have any objection! I am the gentleman you spent ten thousand taels of silver to invite. What I want to do is to enlighten you, teach you knowledge, guide you on how to think, and comfort your messy mood. As for right or wrong, it is your choice, I will not do it. Judgment!"
"You just said Buddhism..."
"Oh, those are words to comfort you. The biggest function of Buddhism is to soothe people's hearts and make people calm. After doing evil things, people can find the excuse to forgive themselves and finally feel at ease with killing. After all, killing one person is still killing, killing ten thousand is still killing. After killing enough people, throw the butcher knife on the ground. , put on the cassock, forgive yourself, and become a living, clean and good person again!"
"Then, who is the good person? At least tell me who is the good person, so that I can learn from him!"
"Such people do exist. Do you remember Liang Xingyang, the Taoist priest from Jinxian Temple?"
Yun Zhao thought for a moment and said, "That's the one who deceived my family. After making money, he went down the mountain with his sword on his back, claiming to be going to save the world?"
"My leg is broken!"
"Huh?"
Things were very funny, but Xu Yuanshou did not laugh. Instead, he cupped his hands in the direction of Zhongnan Mountain and said, "He went to the battlefield where thieves and bandits were fighting to persuade others not to fight. He also said that as long as we sit down and talk, something can always be done. He found a suitable way out.
As a result, he was trampled by the rebels and his leg was broken. The young apprentice carried him all the way back from Yansui, which delayed his medical treatment and may require him to use crutches in the future.
p>Do you really want to laugh?"
Yun Zhao was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "I can't laugh."
Xu Yuanshou pouted towards the sky and said: "But everyone else is laughing at him! Laugh at him for not overestimating his abilities, laugh at him for trying his best to help others, laugh at him for being pedantic, laugh at him for wanting to be famous and going crazy! "
Hearing this, Yun Zhao remained silent for a longer time. When he opened his mouth again, Xu Yuanshou was already impatient and ready to leave.
"I killed seven people recently. We are preparing to kill more people, and the house is not very stable. I would like to invite Daoist Liang to come to the house to perform a ritual to dispel the overwhelming resentment. What do you think, sir? "
Xu Yuanshou nodded and said: "Hurry up then, I'm worried that if you go late, he and his young apprentice will starve to death. "
Obviously, Mr. Yun Zhao has no objections to what he did, let alone contempt.
"Xu Guangqi sent you some seeds and will deliver them tomorrow. When you get to Yunshi Zhuangzi, remember to collect it. I heard that there is a letter and two hundred taels of silver in it. Take the silver and find some craftsmen to repair the gate of Yushan Academy and get some bells to hang on the eaves.
Just burn the letter on the spot. If anyone comes and asks about me, just tell them that I am dead. "
"Huh? Have the seeds I wanted arrived? ”
When Yun Zhao heard the news, he immediately ran away.
Xu Yuanshou raised his arm and wanted to tell the student to let him understand his words again. He wanted to burn the letter, but tears came out of his mouth as he spoke, and he finally stopped shouting.
Yun Zhao rushed into the house like a wild boar and kicked open the backyard door before the big white goose could do it. As he was escaping, Yun Zhao pinched the long neck and kicked the big white goose hard twice. Seeing this, the other big white goose shook its body and flapped its wings and ran away. Yun Zhao abandoned the unlucky big white goose. Goose, when he saw Qian Duoduo coming out, he rushed to hug her face and gave her a kiss.
Seeing Qian Duoduo's face flushed, he laughed and said, "I don't plan to marry you!" "
Qian Duoduo was so angry that he caught up with Yun Zhao and punched him heavily on the back. Then he said: "Why are you so happy?
Yun Zhao chuckled and said, "Would you believe me if I said I had a way to keep everyone fed?" "
Qian Duoduo curled his lips and said with disdain: "Liar! "
Yun Zhao smiled and said: "My precious seeds will come tomorrow. "
Qian Duoduo quickly said: "Really? "
Yun Zhao said: "This is a very powerful seed. It was stolen by the red-haired countrymen who floated on a boat for many years before drifting to a fairy mountain. It is common for an acre of real estate to weigh hundreds of kilograms!" "
When Qian Duoduo heard what Yun Zhao said, his eyes rolled around several times, and he quickly ran back to his room. After a while, he held two ingots of silver and patted Yun Zhao's arms and said: “I want to buy land! ”
“Buy land? Whose land should I buy? "
"Your family just needs water to irrigate the ground! "
"I just gave you these ten taels of silver. "
"It's mine! "Qian Duoduo's eyes widened.
"You knowHow much does one acre of my paddy field cost? "
"One acre of land in Yangzhou only costs three taels of silver, and the land price in Guanzhong will only be even lower! "
"You know what the heck! Why is the land price in Yangzhou so low? It's entirely because of the consequences of the Southeast Kailash. Families with a lot of land have to serve as grain chiefs. If they can't harvest grain, they have to pay for it with their property!
No one wants to be a grain manager, and whoever becomes a grain manager depends on whose family has more land. People who are worried about their own land have to sell their fields. As a result, the land price in Yangzhou, a land of plenty, has become Very low.
In a place like Yunjiazhuangzi, my family is born to be the grain chief. With my family’s protection, there is no danger of other families becoming grain chiefs. Who do you think would sell land as precious as their lives to you?
Do you know that my family’s land is my ancestral land and is not for sale? "
Qian Duoduo lowered his head, slowly approached Yun Zhao, pressed his butt against Yun Zhao's side and whispered: "Just sell me a little, just a little! "
Yun Zhaodao: "With the land, you have to settle the household and you have to pay taxes.
Qian Duoduo raised his head and brushed aside his long hair, revealing his pale face and said: "With fields, we are considered human beings." ”
“Are you going to apply for household registration next? "
Qian Duoduo gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.
"Will you let your brother study next? ”
Qian Duoduo’s eyes began to shine.
“Then, your brother will go to county school, government school, and finally take the children’s examination, county examination, township examination, and general examination. Palace examination, becoming a scholar, a scholar, a Jinshi or even the number one scholar? "
Qian Duoduo nodded his beautiful little head like a chicken pecking at rice, and there was even drool dripping from the corner of his mouth.
"It's over, just like my mother thought! ”
“If I don’t marry in my whole life, I still want my brother to shine!” "Qian Duoduo kneaded the handkerchief in his hand into a rag, but the words that came out of his mouth were extremely firm.
"The only way for you and your brother to get the land is to open up wasteland and spend three years. Cultivate the raw land into mature land, and you will have some dry land!
During this period, if someone who owns land in Yun's Village is hit by a disaster and needs to sell land to save his life, your opportunity will come and you can buy land with money.
Except for my grandfather’s official land, all other land in my family came from this way. You have to be patient. "
Qian Duoduo said: "Where can we open up wasteland? "
Yun Zhao pointed to Yushan Mountain surrounded by clouds on the mountainside and said: "Above the white clouds! "
Qian Duoduo looked at Yushan with some fascination. Yun Zhao wanted to leave, but Qian Duoduo grabbed him and said, "Why don't you want to be the top scholar?"
Yun Zhao shook his head and said: "It's not suitable for me to be the number one scholar. I think being a robber might be more suitable for me." "
"Why? ”
“Because in a few years, the emperor will die. Whose family should we test for the top prize? "
"Nonsense, EmperorHow could he die? Even if he dies, the emperor's son will still want to be the number one scholar! "
"Are you sure your brother can get the top prize? "Yun Zhao pointed to Qian Shaoshao who was comforting the big white goose.
"My brother is very smart! ”
“I used to think so too, but after I met my husband, I no longer felt smart. "
"What do you think my brother is suitable for? farmer? "
"No, your brother is a very qualified robber! ”
