Chapter 68: A Big Article on Making Choices
The New Year has arrived, but people’s lives have not gotten better...
People on the plains began to move to the mountains Come.
This is a strange phenomenon!
In the past, people from mountainous areas would go down to the plains to seek food during times of famine.
Now, it’s the other way around.
Qinling Mountains, this sacred mountain that has blessed countless Chinese people since ancient times, once again showed its benevolent side. The melted snow water rushed down from the mountains, giving the Guanzhong Plain the last breath. machine.
The closer you are to the Qinling Mountains, the more people will enjoy the moisture of the Qinling Mountains.
Yunjiazhuangzi was originally a remote mountain village. People on the plains were extremely unfamiliar with this mountain village.
But just like that, outside the high walls of Yunjiazhuang, farmers gradually came to look for work.
In the cold weather and twelfth lunar month, where can I find any work for them...
At the beginning, Yun Niang thought these people were pitiful and even gave them some food, although it was not good food. , but there is no problem in satisfying oneself.
Butler Yunfu stopped him twice, but Yun Niang didn’t listen.
At first, she just saw the thin woman holding the child and looking at her eagerly, so she gave the woman and child a bowl of porridge and a piece of cake. Later, she saw the old woman begging her with her toothless mouth open. , so she gave the old woman another bowl of porridge and a piece of cake.
Later, a porridge pot was set up outside the high wall of Yunjiazhuang...
Dark red flames licked the dark bottom of the pot, and outside the big pot, It's a pair of hungry eyes.
Yun Zhao stood on the high wall and looked down. The entire Yunjiazhuangzi stood on the high wall and looked down. After watching for a while, everyone except Yun Zhao went back. .
Immediately, Yun Zhao saw the people from Yunjiazhuangzi starting to walk towards the back mountain carrying their own food, probably to hide.
The appearance of the hungry people is so terrifying... They almost have no human form, and their only purpose of gathering in front of Yunjiazhuangzi is to drink a bowl of porridge.
I don’t know when Mr. Xu came. He stood next to Yun Zhao and said, “Look, this is the greatest injustice in the world!
You should make the world fair. "
Yun Zhao said disapprovingly: "As far as I know, there has never been fairness in this world. From the birth of mankind to the present, there has never been such a thing.
The first person who develops intelligence may be able to be fair, but after the second person is born, there will be no absolute fairness.
It will be a coincidence that I can get something for my work in the future. Fortunately."
Xu Yuanshou frowned and said: "The great sages three generations ago could do it."
"You mean Yao, Shun and Yu?"
" Yes!”
“You are wrong. The reason why you have such misunderstanding in ancient times is purely to record these things.people related.
People always hate the era they live in, imagining that it will be better before or in the future, but they have no determination to change the present.
This is the greatest sorrow of man.
Who knows that in ancient times, people wore straw clothes and animal skins, shouted about poisonous diseases, and begged for survival from the mouths of wild beasts? How could they be happy at all!
One sentence in my mind is very clear - that is, everything must depend on ourselves!
If you want to have enough food, plant the land; if you want to wear warm clothes, weave cloth; if you want to have a warm house, you must bake bricks... There is no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world. !
So, if I am really as promising in the future as my husband said, I will not be the holy king you mentioned. I will only become a whip on the back of the common people.
I will take away the share that belongs to the country, and I will leave them enough food to satisfy their hunger. However, I want more, and I also want to leave more for them.
At this time, everyone must work hard, and the lazy will not be able to eat. "
Mr. Xu sighed and said: "You are going to become a person like Ying Zheng. "
Yun Zhao sneered: "The essence of an emperor is to plunder! There is essentially no difference between emperors since ancient times, whether they are Yao, Shun, Yu, Xia, Jie, Shang and Zhou.
You cannot say that Yao, Shun, and Yu were better than Jie and Zhou just because they did things like robbery more covertly and more gently.
Of course, I will try my best to follow Yao, Shun and Yu, and despise Jie and Zhou. After all, this is a consensus among people! "
Xu Yuanshou sighed and said: "Is this what God suddenly put in your head? "
Yun Zhao nodded.
Xu Yuanshou was silent for a moment, pointed at the hungry people under the high wall and said: "Your mother is using the food you are preparing to fight for the world to help the victims. If you don't go, Block? After all, once disaster relief begins, you will not be allowed to stop. Otherwise, your family will become the biggest enemy of the hungry people! "
Yun Zhao laughed and said: "I think my mother did right. The fight for the world must start from the feet. If I can't even help these hungry people, I will talk about fighting for the world in the future. "
Xu Yuanshou said: "How do you help these hungry people? Your family doesn't have as much food as expected. "
Yun Zhao turned his head and looked up at Xu Yuanshou and said: "I am a robber! ”
“The robbers robbed the robbers, and then used the robbers’ food to help the victims? "
What Xu Yuanshou said was very difficult to pronounce, but he expressed his meaning completely.
Yun Zhao sighed and said: "This is something that can't be helped. Food The quantity is certain, I want to change the people who eat the food.
I actually don’t like robbers, but these days if I don’t act as a robber, I will be bullied by others, so I have to become a robber.
Once the robbers talk about the reasons why they became robbers, they like to use the government to force the people to rebel as an excuse.
For a family like my Yun family, whenThe robbers were not forced by officials, but out of some consideration.
In the past, there were far more people who became robbers because they were idle and indolent than those who were forced by the government to rebel against the people.
It’s hard to say now, so I really want to eradicate the old bandits before the farmers are forced to become bandits by the officials.
After replacing all the old bandits with farmers who have to rebel, my team will be easy to lead. ”
Mr. Xu was silent for a moment and said: “In that case, is your goal the Longpao Water of Huaxian County, or the regretful water of Zhashui?”
Yun Zhao thought about it and said: "Xian Potian has a lot of food and grass, but Longpao water is Monk Peng's sworn brother. I still choose Longpao water." "
Xu Yuanshou touched his beard and said: "Booby? ”
“Monk Peng was killed by an adulterer and occupied the village. The second master felt dissatisfied and invited Longpao Shuiliyingwai to cooperate with him to kill the adulterer. The second master was willing to give half of Monk Peng’s wealth in return. Gift.
Do you think Longpao Shui will be deceived by saying this? "
"No! They are all old robbers. They have seen this kind of thing a lot. He will definitely find out more about it before going out. The way you killed Monk Peng was too rough and you can't escape the eyes of those who are interested. "
"Sir, you are worrying too much. According to my disciples, the bandits in Guanzhong are all a bit stupid. I tried this method on Yun Hu, and he was immediately fooled.
I also tried it on clouded leopards and cloud dragons, and they were also fooled.
Yunxiao hesitated for a while, but still felt that the deal was feasible. Only Yunmeng thought that the second boss should be killed as well.
With all the intelligence of my uncles, they can kill Monk Peng. I think it shouldn’t be difficult to kill Longpao Shui in this way. "
Xu Yuanshou chuckled and said: "That's because your Yun family is short of food. As long as there is a chance to get food, they would rather take risks and give it a try.
So, you say they are stupid, which is inappropriate, because they value food more than their lives.
People, sometimes it’s not that they don’t know what they are doing is stupid, but that they are forced by the facts and have to do it.
Yun Zhao smiled and said: "How to make Longpao Shui jump down even though he knows it is a trap?" "
Xu Yuanshou said with a smile: "Deceive his spiritual sense! ”
“How can one blind one’s spiritual awareness? ”
“Laozi said: The five colors make one blind; the five tones make one deaf; the five tastes make one’s mouth refreshed; galloping and hunting make one’s heart go crazy; rare goods make one’s travels difficult; therefore, the sage is one’s belly. Eyes, so go to each other and take this.
People always have weaknesses.
What does Longpao Shui like best? ”
“For big operas, he used to sing ‘Huanghuanzi’, and he likes to sing ‘Huanghuanzi’ in costume and dragon robe.
As long as there are people from all over the country acting, he will definitely watch it, and sometimes he will sing a part if he gets interested.
Oh, sir, I know what to doSo done. "
As Yun Zhao spoke, his eyes began to shine.
Xu Yuanshou sighed and said: "Think about it again, the food you obtained from solving the Longpao Water is not enough. Many, even you are not cruel enough to kill all Longpaoshui's subordinates. Even if you can kill the robber, what will you do with the robber's family members?
If you kill the robbers’ families, then what is the point of saving the people?
If you don’t kill them, the people in front of you will starve to death.
Spending effort to solve the problem of dragon robe water at this time will not help you solve your current predicament.
The person you really have to deal with is Xiang Potian from Zhashui County. Last year's harvest in Zhashui County was very good, which is why Xiang Potian is so powerful.
These days, those with food can recruit a large number of people.
If you don’t deal with Xiang Potian now, next year, Xiang Potian will only become stronger because of the food.
Do you think it is better to deal with Xiang Potian, who is still in the period of accumulating strength, or to deal with Xiang Potian, who is more powerful? "
Yun Zhao nodded and said: "It's better to deal with the current Xiang Potian! "
Xu Yuanshou smiled and said: "How to deal with it? "
"Monk Peng teamed up with Longpao Shui to deal with Xian Potian! "
"Well, that's right. No matter how small a beneficial force is, don't abandon it. No matter how powerful a harmful force is, don't keep it! ”
