Dragon Soul in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 118

"Has there been any movement from the Zheng family?" Li Mingyang said softly, as if he was muttering to himself, but also as if he was asking.Feeling the atmosphere after the great war, instead of relaxing, the surrounding forces are ready to move. The snake has already come out of the hole, but why is the person who beat the snake so slow to move.

The Guiyuan Tea Shop in Nanjing City is located on the banks of the Qinhuai River, a place where every inch of land is expensive, but it occupies several large gardens with three entrances and three exits. It has to make people sigh the strong financial resources of Guiyuan Tea Shop.

"Have you heard about it? The Li family's goods were robbed, and as a result, all the merchants united and made trouble everywhere. They have already destroyed several workshops of the Li family. The business of the Li family has plummeted!"

"Why haven't I heard of it? I also know that some people went to the countryside to persuade those tenants. I don't know what they are doing secretly."

A person drinking tea next to him sneered and said, "Do you know which master is the storyteller today?"

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the people around were immediately attracted, and they all looked at each other. Those who knew listened with a smile on their faces, as if it was a kind of honor, while those who didn't know looked even more solemn. They came here for Seeing the big scene, now that someone is giving them free knowledge, how can they not be excited.

Some people also spoke in agreement: "You are talking about that iron-toothed blue master who is named after that copper tooth."

"It should be. This guy is amazing. He was also a real talent when he was young. He is only stronger than the Fushe or something!"

Listening to everyone's chatter, those who came here to see it felt even more admiration in their hearts, and became more solemn and respectful, but there was an indifferent smile on their faces, as if they were holding a wisdom pearl, and they didn't open their mouths.

"Hmph! Those with copper teeth and iron teeth, aren't they just two shameless Chinese thieves who, relying on their eloquence, curry favor with certain people, and become so powerful. What they do can be described as Shameless." Suddenly there was a loud noise from the corner, and one person slapped the table, stood up suddenly, and glared at everyone.

There was an uproar, this guy is so brave, he dared to make trouble in Guiyuan teahouse, and he uttered nonsense in front of the commentary fans of Bronze Tooth and Iron Tooth, causing everyone to shout angrily: "Where did this arrogant person come from? Toad yawned in a big tone, if you don't make it clear today, we won't finish."

"That's right! Master Iron Tooth Lan has provoked you, dare to speak out to hurt others."

"Hmph! Mr. Tongya Ji is the one I admire the most. You dare to slander and take your life." This man was even more unreasonable. He pulled out the sword from his waist directly when he disagreed with him, angrily Kill towards the corner.

"Don't move." The man in the corner snorted coldly, and suddenly he took out a broken gun, pointed it at the reckless man who was walking towards him, and said in a cold voice: "I'm afraid you don't know if it's a traitor or not." , I just happen to know it, if you want to listen, then I can talk to you for free."

"Hmph! We don't want to hear your ramblings. If you have the guts, light the matchlock and blow my head open. You will be charged with this life lawsuit. You won't be able to eat well. Otherwise, you can put down the firecracker and fight with me." This reckless man was not reckless in his speech at all, but well-organized, but he still wanted to stab him in the end.

He slapped the short-fired blunderbuss hard, and said with a sneer, "If you have the ability, you kill me! Then this secret will never be known."

"Okay, tell me, I'd like to see what tricks you're up to, huh! You have to be careful, the sword in my hand is not jealous." The reckless man stood holding the sword, looking at him with a sneer.

After the two were so startled and noisy, all eyes were on them, and they were also aroused curiosity. What kind of secret would make that person lose his composure, willing to pay the price of his life? It speaks out.

The man in the corner cleared his throat, howled twice, like a drake, and suddenly spoke, his voice was warm and cold, and soft like a silver bottle: "It is said that 15 years ago, Zhaojiabao , there are two melon-seeded faces, one young man looks a bit young, and the other young man is a bit pretty..."

The catchy, soul-shocking voice made them unable to tell whether it was telling the secret of the story, or talking about storytelling, but these were not important anymore, they were already attracted, and their minds could not help but sink into it. Among them, the story gradually became clear.

Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth did not know each other earlier, but the two of them, one from the south and the other from the north, were like the pride of heaven in the two places. They met on the way to Beijing to rush for the exam. Ordinary people, who knew that they lost their name to Sun Shan, and the two ran to the border to join the army in a fit of anger.

Unexpectedly, they were taken away as slaves halfway. The two were proud and arrogant, and they suffered a lot along the way, but the aliens did not kill them. Mouth, more profound knowledge, valued by foreigners, left behind to translate various documents.

These two are also bachelors, and they agreed without any hesitation. After staying in obscurity with the foreigners for many years, they became more and more proficient in the languages ​​of the foreigners, translating various Han characters into the languages ​​of the foreigners. And passed it on to the people below.

The two are very respected by the foreigners. They can be described as masters with profound literature and knowledge of astronomy and geography. After so many years, the foreigners have always won wars with the Ming court, and the two never thought of going back. To his hometown, but when the ambition of the foreigner swelled up, he wanted to set up another family and become the emperor.

The leader of the foreign tribe also thought of the two of them. With such two people under his command, he could just as his envoys go to the Ming court to lobby.

These two people stayed here for so many years, they translated an unknown number of Han characters, and then destroyed an unknown number of orphaned copies of Han documents, all of which were snatched back by people of other races, and all of them were turned into foreign characters, and those of Han characters followed suit. It was destroyed and never appeared again.

Such two sinners destroyed the writing of the Han nationality, lived with peace of mind, and endured the offerings of foreigners, but absorbed the flesh and blood of Han slaves, but now the Ming court is still there, and if these two return to the Ming court, they will definitely be punished. Refers to, the stink of ten thousand years.

So they had to give up everything in front of them, and the two discussed and escaped quietly without alarming anyone.

After he came back, relying on the knowledge of various isolated books he had read over the years, his eloquence became more and more sharp, and he kept his name incognito, and became a storyteller in Guiyuan Teahouse.

This eloquence is very good, and he finished the whole story in a clear manner. It was only a cup of tea. When he stopped, everyone still had something to say. They couldn't tell whether it was true or not, and they needed a hint from the storyteller.

The man chuckled and said, "Everything I said is true. I can tell you their real names. If you don't believe me, there are northerners here. They are willing to stand up and confront me."

"I'm from the north." The brash man with a sneer on his face said coldly while standing with his sword in his arms.

"I'm also from the north." A thin and small man appeared out of nowhere, with clear eyes and looking forward to him, and said, "I do know that there are two aliens with names in the north. It is said that they are Semu people, not Jurchen. Build slaves."

"Hmph! How could they use Han Chinese names outside the pass?" The man talking in the corner sneered and said slowly, "One is called Agadi, and the other is called Tuo Leiye..."

"Ah! That's right." The thin man suddenly exclaimed, looking around.

I saw this guy sneered and said: "Their real name is Chi Jialan, and there is also Ye Leiji."

"That's right, it's all right." A shy-looking person in the crowd suddenly shouted, and everyone looked at him, only to see that his shy face was even more shy and embarrassed. As people watched, they lowered their heads one after another, with a coquettish expression, just like a woman.

Believe it, at this moment, the crowd no longer had any doubts. They never thought that the two storytellers they usually loved were actually two thieves.

"What kind of bullshit tea shop is this? It's dirtier than that filthy brothel, bah! I've drank so much tea here, I'm so self-cultivating, I'm wasting my time and money, fuck it. Smash everything here." A big man suddenly stood up and slammed his palm on the table, causing the table to fall apart.

Many people followed suit, stood up without saying a word, raised their hands and smashed it. After a while, the huge Guiyuan tea shop was completely smashed.
