Chapter 252 The First Life (Transitional Chapter)

As Li Jing said before, if it is for the people of the Jianghuai area, Du Fuwei cannot die at this time, or even lose control of the Jianghuai Army.

Although this sounds emotionally unacceptable, it is the result of respecting the facts.

After all, it is a troubled time, and what the people in the world need most is a stable life.

Even if this stability is very short-lived, and it comes from a dominant warlord like Du Fuwei, it is quite precious.

……

"Director Du, I asked my superior to write a letter to you a few months ago. Such an unrighteous act of forcing a strong man will eventually be rewarded.

You see, today is coming.

The world is in chaos today, isn't it because of the Sui court's violent expropriation and unpopularity?

If you follow the example of the stupid king Yang Guang, even if you benefit for a while, how can it last for a long time.

Moreover, in this world, there are many men who can't survive, or want to make contributions.

With the might of the Jianghuai Army today and with the reputation of Chief Du, you only need to ascend to the top, and there are countless followers, so why bother to do things that harm others and benefit yourself..."

Li Jing stood in front of Du Fuwei's bed, looked at the former leader who was seriously injured and mentally frustrated, and said solemnly.

Du Fuwei heard the words, looked at the thatched roof of the village house in silence for a long time, finally closed his eyes, and sighed:

"Li Jing, before today, I didn't know there was such a person as you in the Jianghuai Army.

As for your "remonstrance in a letter", I have never read it or seen it.

But to be honest, even if you were really my confidant, I might not have listened to your persuasion.

After all, I, Du, have been in the world for decades, and I have always followed myself..."

At this point, Du Fuwei's voice suddenly paused, his hands covered his chest, and his face was very painful, as if his words had affected his injuries.After a long while, his expression was slightly relieved, and then he opened his mouth and said to Li Jing:
"Forget it, there is no need to mention the past.

In order to survive today, I even kowtowed and begged for mercy, so what is there to say about my prestige.

Just tell me, what exactly does Mr. Meng behind you want me to do?
Although Du is not a gentleman, he is not a person who is obedient and obedient, and contradicts what he says..."

Li Jing saw Du Fuwei's emotional ups and downs, but he was not affected in the slightest, and said to the other party calmly and seriously:

"Director Du, didn't I make it clear just now.

Mr. Meng today is all out of righteous indignation because he can't understand Jianghuai Army's forced recruitment of strong men, so he made an enemy of you.

His meaning is also very simple, it is to ask your Jianghuai army not to harass the people and harm innocent people in the future. "

Du Fuwei was taken aback when he heard the words on the bed, turned his head to look at Li Jing with difficulty, stared directly at him for a long time with deep eyes, and then said:

"Is he really just doing it for this?
Before he opened his mouth, he bet me on the Jianghuai army, didn't he want my forces to fight for the world..."

Li Jing smiled slightly when he heard the words, and asked Du Fuwei:

"If Mr. Meng really has such intentions, what will Manager Du do?"

When Li Jing was speaking, his eyes met Du Fuwei's. Their eyes were obviously not sharp, but they seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.Du Fuwei's spirit was not good when he was seriously injured, and he was intimidated by his momentum for a while. He was silent for a while, and finally said calmly:

"In order to save my life, I will agree temporarily.

But the power and prestige in the army cannot be completed in a short while.

Only after I confirm that Mr. Meng will not cross rivers and tear down bridges, unload mills and kill donkeys in the future will I sincerely help him..."

"But if Director Du is like this, isn't there no hope of competing for the emperor's position in the future?"

Before Du Fuwei finished speaking, Li Jing immediately asked a question.

Du Fuwei smiled when he heard the words, shook his head, and replied:
"Li Mi wants to be an emperor, Wang Bo wants to be an emperor, Dou Jiande also wants to be an emperor. Everyone wants to be an emperor, but I, Du Fuwei, may just be afraid of losing my martial arts, unwilling to be lonely, and want to compete with the heroes of the world. "

Hearing Du Fuwei's words, Li Jing already had a conclusion in his mind, nodded and said only "Director Du, Li Jing is leaving", then turned around and walked out of the house.

Seeing this, Du Fuwei felt rather strange in his heart, and stopped him aloud:

"Wait, are you leaving now..."

Li Jing turned his head when he heard the sound, and asked Du Fuwei:
"Of course we have to leave after finishing the matter. What else is there for Director Du?"

Du Fuwei stood up strongly, and asked with burning eyes:

"You just leave like this, aren't you afraid that I will heal my injuries, dispatch troops, invite masters, and turn around to deal with you?"

Li Jing smiled slightly, as if he had known what Du Fuwei said, and immediately said softly:

"Young Master Meng said that if Director Du is not convinced, he can regroup and challenge him again.

But next time, he won't give you another chance to 'talk'..."

……

In silence, the remaining dozens of guard cavalry had left the village with the seriously injured Du Fuwei.

Li Jing glanced at the dust and smoke raised by the horse's hooves from a distance, and didn't pay much attention to it. He turned around and walked towards a private house that had been left vacant because the villagers had fled.

"How is Mr. Meng doing now?"

Li Jing pushed the door open and entered, then asked Zhang Yong and Su Su who were sitting in the living room.

"Brother Meng hasn't come out since he entered the back room, and we haven't dared to disturb him.

Brother Li Jing, tell me, it could be that Brother Meng just practiced too much and suffered a secret injury..."

Zhang Yong glanced into the back room, with a bit of worry in his expression.

"I heard some strange noises coming from Mr. Meng's room, but I don't know what it is.

Brother Li, Mr. Meng will be fine, right? "

Susu on the side also looked nervous, and couldn't help echoing.

After the battle with Du Fuwei just now, Meng Xiuyuan suddenly said that he wanted to find a quiet room to retreat for a while, and even handed over the negotiation with Du Fuwei to Li Jing.

Such behavior made the three of them puzzled, and they couldn't help feeling a little worried.

As the backbone of the three, Li Jing was equally disturbed, but he had no choice but to comfort the remaining two:
"Mr. Meng's last move just now can be said to be unpredictable, if he suffers some internal injuries because of it, it is also possible.

However, his martial arts are superb and his mind is calm, so nothing major will happen to him.

Let's wait for him..."

Just as the words were being said, the door of the back room was suddenly opened, and Meng Xiuyuan stepped out with a calm expression.

"I'm really sorry for worrying the three of you.

I was not injured, but after the battle just now, some changes occurred in the true energy in my body, and I couldn't determine the specific situation for a while, so I can't explain it to you..."

While speaking, Meng Xiuyuan cupped his hands at the three of them respectively, and then asked Li Jing alone:

"Brother Li, what happened to Du Fuwei?"

Li Jing heard the words and said seriously:
"I have talked with him, and according to my judgment, this person is not a hero who wants to fight for the emperor's throne.

Under the threat of his life, Mr. Meng, he should not disobey what you entrusted.

If Mr. Meng is not at ease, I can stay here for a while and secretly see if the behavior of the Jianghuai army has changed. "

Meng Xiuyuan shook his head with a smile, and said to Li Jing:
"Don't bother.

In terms of wisdom and strategy, and seeing through people's hearts, I am not as good as Brother Li.

Brother Li's eyes, I am naturally relieved. "

Zhang Yong next to him didn't care too much about these things, and after hearing Meng Xiuyuan's words, he immediately interjected and asked:

"Brother Meng, you said that something has changed in your true anger, is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Please make things clear, don't be vague. "

Meng Xiuyuan heard the words and looked around, only to see Zhang Yong's dark face full of concern, knowing the sincerity of his feelings, he couldn't help feeling warm in his heart.

He reached out and patted Zhang Yong's shoulder, then said relaxedly:
"My martial arts has been stuck in a bottleneck for several months.

It is a good thing to have a change at this moment. "

Hearing Meng Xiuyuan's words, Zhang Yong felt relieved, and a simple and honest smile appeared on his face again.

……

After several accidents, a lot of time was delayed.

Seeing that the sun was setting and it was getting late, the four of them did not discuss the matter of going on the road, but spent the night in this small village in place.

Su Su is gentle, virtuous, and ingenious, borrowing the pots and bowls of oil and salt left by the villagers to cook a few pheasants and hares hunted by Meng Xiuyuan very deliciously.

The four had a good meal, sat at the table and chatted for a long time, and then dispersed to act separately.

Su Su and Li Jing were exhausted after a whole day of mental tension, so they each picked a fairly clean village house and rested.

Only Zhang Yong, who hadn't seen Meng Xiuyuan for many years, was so excited that he wanted to drag Meng Xiuyuan to sit at the dinner table for a while longer.

"Brother Meng, come, let's drink again.

I have been looking for you for so many years, and finally found you again. It is really not easy.

Let's get drunk today! "

Zhang Yong brought a jar of turbid wine and happily filled it for Meng Xiuyuan, the corner of his mouth couldn't hold back the heartfelt smile.

Seeing him like this, Meng Xiuyuan felt a little puzzled in his heart. He didn't know why his "childhood playmate" who had only been with him for a few months and hadn't seen him for ten years, still had such an enthusiastic attitude towards him.

Half out of sincerity, half out of appearance, Meng Xiuyuan asked with concern:
"Yongzi, how is your family doing now?
Are the shopkeeper and the proprietress in good health?
Then usher in the restaurant, is the business okay? "

When Zhang Yong heard that Meng Xiuyuan cared about him, his expression became more and more happy. He drank a large bowl of wine, and then said with a silly smile:

"All good, all good.

Brother Meng, you reminded me that my father took my mother to the city to see a doctor, and after drinking the decoction for half a year, I didn't cough again.

Recently, I received a letter from them in the army, saying that the restaurant at home was booming and too busy, and told me to hurry back and help..."

Meng Xiuyuan nodded when he heard the words, and felt a little relieved in his heart. He only felt that it was really not easy for the three of them to have such a good life in the troubled times.

"Since that's the case, why do you still join the Jianghuai army?

Do you know that the sword has no eyes, and the battlefield is dangerous.

Don't say it's just that you are stronger than others, even if you really have high martial arts skills, it's hard to guarantee that you won't meet a more formidable opponent. "

Seeing Zhang Yong's sincerity, Meng Xiuyuan was moved, and couldn't help but take the initiative to warn him from the perspective of a big brother.

Hearing this, Zhang Yong first filled his own bowl with dirty wine, and then he said to Meng Xiuyuan with a smile:
"Brother Meng, I understand what you said.

But if I hadn't come out to join the rebel army and see the world, how could I have met Miss Susu, and how could I have met you, Brother Meng again?
The two years I ran away from home, except for playing with you when I was a child, my happiest days..."

Meng Xiuyuan snorted softly when he heard the words, stretched out his hand to remove the wine bowl in front of Zhang Yong, and said to him seriously:

"Yongzi, I'm not joking with you.

Go home and run the restaurant with your parents.

After saving more money, he headed south to settle down on the territory of the Lingnan Song Clan.

Tiandao Song Que's martial arts are famous all over the world, and he, the Song Clan, lives in a corner and has nothing to do with the world. It seems that there will be no war.

In troubled times, only this road can guarantee you a safe life. "

Seeing Meng Xiuyuan's serious expression, Zhang Yong was taken aback for a moment, then slightly restrained his smile, and said seriously to Meng Xiuyuan: "Brother Meng, thank you for your reminder.

Tomorrow I will find a way to write a letter, send it home, and tell my parents to pack up and settle down in Lingnan.

However, I will not go by myself.

I still have to look around to see if I can find another suitable rebel army to join..."

Meng Xiuyuan frowned slightly when he heard the words, and asked Zhang Yong puzzled:

"Yongzi, what are you doing this for?
Is it for fame?Or for that Susu girl? "

Zhang Yong smiled again when he heard the words, and replied sincerely to Meng Xiuyuan with that dark and honest face:
"Brother Meng, I'm not sure about this matter, maybe there are all of them.

In fact, what I think in my heart is to see more of this world, get to know more outstanding people, and leave more unforgettable experiences
Like this, even if one day I die halfway, I will not regret it..."

Meng Xiuyuan felt a little dazed when he heard the simple and honest Zhang Yong suddenly utter such philosophical words, and couldn't help asking:

"Yongzi, did you realize these words yourself, or who taught you?"

Zhang Yong looked at Meng Xiuyuan with a pair of small eyes, and replied:

"Brother Meng, didn't you tell me all these things?"

Meng Xiuyuan was taken aback when he heard the sound, he couldn't believe it:

"Did I tell you this when I was a child, why can't I remember?"

Zhang Yong smiled, touched the back of his head, and answered:
"Actually, I was still young at that time, and I don't remember exactly whether I said it or not.

I just remember that from the day you, Brother Meng, appeared in my shop, I was full of curiosity about the outside world.

And when you said goodbye and left alone a few months later, I made a decision in my heart that when I grow up, I must also leave that small shop and go out to see the vast world.

I want to know how miraculous the outside world is, whether there are those wonderful stories you told, and why it is possible to create such a powerful person like you, Brother Meng..."

Meng Xiuyuan's heart trembled when he heard the words, he didn't expect that some words he said to coax the children back then would change Zhang Yong's life.

Although Zhang Yong has a simple and honest personality, his mind is also bright. Seeing Meng Xiuyuan's expression changed slightly, he knew that he was blaming himself, so he dared to speak again:
"Brother Meng, to be honest, I have always been very grateful to you.

If it weren't for you, I might be trapped in my parents' small restaurant for the rest of my life.

A person lives for a lifetime, and the grass and trees fall once, no matter how great his ability is and how much wealth he has, sooner or later there will be an end.

And what can be left in the end is not what you have heard, seen, known and felt along the way?

That being the case, why should I restrain myself so that I cannot experience the splendor of this only one life? "

Hearing the sound, Meng Xiuyuan sat on the spot in a daze, feeling a sudden surge in his heart, and a small corner that had been sealed for a long time had been touched.

　Personally, I feel that a transitional chapter is more necessary, and it has been indicated in the title, everyone lightly sprays.

　　Mr. Huang Yi mentioned many times in the original text that "there is nothing more moving in this world than life itself, and the reason why life is meaningful is the moving journey and experience. Success or failure is not important, but the process of struggle That's the most fascinating part." Such words.

　　I think this is also one of the spiritual cores of the book "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty".
