Chapter 104 Ten Steps to Kill a Man with a Laughing Yan Yan ([-])

In August in Peidi, the wind is still very warm.

August in the lunar calendar is also one month earlier than August in the lunar calendar. The golden sunflowers smile towards the sun in such a warm wind.

Before all the people arrived, people kept coming. The Mohists led the new members of the village community or people in Peiyi City, arranged them to sit in different places, and prepared dry food for them first.

On the stage, several Mohists were playing games such as fighting against each other and fighting swords, attracting everyone's attention and killing the waiting time, and from time to time there was a burst of applause.

Shi and Mozi and some Mozi stood under the sunflowers deliberately planted in a ceremonial arrangement, the golden pollen fell rustlingly, and the wild bees flew on it, which was very emotional.

Several Mohists came from afar and said beside Mozi: "The witches came out from Peiyi. They carried the coffin and wore mourning clothes. The three or fifty people in the front were holding sticks, and the people behind were wearing sackcloth. Weeping and coming this way. Many people followed behind, maybe they want revenge?"

Mo Zi let out a hey, and Shi seemed to understand what the other party was going to do.

"That's fine. I'm still worried that they will escape. If they don't escape, then let them come. Well, are the gunpowder ready?"

Shi pointed to the carriageway in the distance: "There are not many preparations and insufficient raw materials. But it can still be done to shock everyone. You don't need to kill them all like this, just kill a few."

Mozi looked at the people who were eating or watching the Mozhe sword dance not far away, and said with a smile: "Let them cry, cry for the funeral, and cry for yourself. When the time comes, no one will cry. Cry first. That's fine too."

Shi said: "Sir, you are not worried?"

Mozi smiled lightly, and asked back: "Why worry? Needless to say, arguing with words, these people may win the hearts of the people than your secretary and secretary? If they really take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble, I'm afraid they won't have the guts. Let Gao The grandson rides in the car and takes the young and strong of the village community along the road to meet him."

The Mozhe who sent the order led away, and the four vehicles that had been patrolling the periphery quickly assembled, leading the villagers in the villages who had been deeply penetrated by the Mozhe, along the path facing Peiyi.

After a while, several Mohists came running over and said, "The big clans, elders, subordinates, etc. from Peiyi are also here."

Mozi had probably seen it clearly, and said to Shi with a smile, "It seems that these people are here to inquire about the crime. But they can't inquire about your crime of poisoning Wu Zhu. They have to think about other crimes. You wait here, I will I'll meet those people. Gong Zaoye stays here and stays with Shi."

Gong Zaoye was a little worried, and said: "Sir, if I don't go, I'm afraid someone will take the opportunity to assassinate them. This place is no better than Shangqiu, and I'm afraid these people don't know the method of my Mohist's revenge. Didn't I say that a newborn calf is not afraid Tiger, we tigers are not afraid of those big bulls, but we have to be wary of those calves who have never seen a fierce tiger."

Mozi waved his hands and laughed, and walked away without any worries.

Gong Zaoye patted Shi on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement or expectation, and then stood on Shi's left side without saying a word.

…………

A few miles away, a long line is coming here.

More than 30 coffins were being carried. Some of the people walking in the front wore three liters of raw linen without hemming, and six liters of linen sewed with rope tassels on their heads. Leucorrhea.

The person in the front is holding a chest-high bamboo stick to show that it is difficult for him to walk in grief and he can only move forward with a stick.

The owner of the coffin next to him may not have had any legitimate sons in his lifetime, but a woman with a beautiful appearance and wearing mourning clothes followed the coffin.

It is just that there is no rope tassel crown, but a one-inch-wide linen cloth is passed around the forehead, and the hair is tied into a bun. Behind the bun, a one-foot-long bamboo is used as a hairpin, called the arrow hairpin, to show his sadness .The ear pendant had already been removed, and there was an imperceptible hole above the fleshy earlobe.

After the death, the relatives and friends who have served the great merit, the minor merit, and the mourning, have not yet cried at this time, and are waiting to meet Mo Zhe and those villagers before crying loudly.

Behind the coffin, followed by several knight-errant swordsmen wearing straw sandals.They are not Mohists, and wearing straw sandals is just a habit of the Teng country. It can be seen that these people are Teng people not far from Peiyi.

The leader of these knight-errant swordsmen was eight feet tall, carrying a dagger, walking very calmly.

Wu Zhu followed behind him and saluted the eight-foot-tall swordsman. The swordsman seemed a little impatient and asked, "How far is it?"

Wu Zhu answered cautiously, only saying that there were still a few miles left, and the swordsman's expression was kind.

Wu Zhu, who was wearing six liters of Shumai mourning clothes, said: "There is really no way. The Mohist is cruel and poisoned my blood relatives. We are powerless, so we can only ask for revenge. After the matter is done, I will thank you with thousands of dollars. I only heard that Among the Mohists, there are some who are good at using swords, so please be careful."

The swordsman laughed loudly and said, "I killed people when I was 15 years old. You have heard of my reputation in Tengdi, who doesn't know? I am the number one warrior in Tengdi."

Wu Zhu even claimed that he was, but he also knew that this person was capable.

The name of this man is Teng Shuyu, who is considered a first-class figure in the city of Tengdi. He killed people at the age of 15. He is also a descendant of the Duke of Teng. It is said that Teng Shuyu also killed two Yue soldiers when the Yue people broke the city. Live in seclusion in the market.

The Kingdom of Teng was granted by the fourteenth younger brother of King Wu, and it was granted by Teng Shuxiu. Ten years ago, King Zhu Gou of Yue destroyed Teng.

Hearing that Wu Zhu was still flattering Teng Shuyu, he snorted and said, "I don't want to care about you people from the Song Dynasty. But since you said you are from Huai and not from Yin, I can take care of it. Otherwise, don't If you say ten thousand dollars, even if it is ten thousand gold, I won’t sell it.”

Wu Zhu understood the feud between the Teng people and the Song people. Since Teng Shuyu became a male clan, the hatred deepened.

At that time, the state of Teng was destroyed by the state of song, and then restored.

When Song Guoping shocked Chu, he also put more pressure on Teng Guo. Because Teng Gong's surname was Ji and Jin, he went to crusade several times.Later, when the feudal lords built the "Chengzhou" city together, Duke Song told Marquis Teng directly that this is a matter for your relatives. I am the Duke and you are the Marquis. You can help the Song Dynasty to build the city of Zhou, and I will not go. up.

Now the state of Song has also fallen into such a situation, but it is a pity that the state of Teng is even worse, and it was destroyed by the state of Yue ten years ago.

Teng Shuyu had always had a grudge against the Mohists. At that time, the Chu people used the power of Gongshuban to improve the siege equipment and compete with the Yue people for hegemony.Mozi stopped Chu from attacking the Song Dynasty, and the queen was still in Yueyue. Zhu Gou wanted to seal Mozi with a land of five hundred miles. Mozi thought that this was a betrayal of his own righteousness. land, so I don’t go.

But the people of Yue also learned some tools to defend the city from Gongshang Guo, and also learned some methods to deal with the attack of the Chu people, and used them in reverse to destroy Teng. .

So Teng Shuyu has hatred in his heart, and he also intends to insult the Mohists: it is best to let the current king of Yue know that the Mohist who was almost enfeoffed for five hundred miles was just that, and was defeated by the Teng people.

As for the specific means of Mo Zhe, Teng Shuyu didn't know.

He murdered at the age of 15. Although he is an official family, he is also a small family from a distant branch. After the country was destroyed, he lived in seclusion in the market and had many friends.

This is a person hired by the rich clan of Peiyi from Tengdi with a lot of money. Teng Shuyu thinks that his swordsmanship is extremely high, at least in Tengyi he has never been invincible.

He had his own attitude, and Wu Zhu became more confident when he saw this, and said: "At that time, you only need to kill a few Mohist to dampen their spirit. There are many Mohist, but in terms of blood kinship, it is not easy for them to rush forward."

Teng Shuyu sneered and said, "If I get motivated to kill people, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop them. I only care about killing people, and when I'm tired of killing people, I'll let you do the rest."

Wu Zhu didn't dare to say anything more, but he said it in his heart, even if you have supernatural power, how many can you kill?Revenge is a small matter, and it is a big deal to make Mohists dare not do those things again. If they can kill seven or eight, they should be able to calm down these Mohists.The revenge of the blood relatives is limited to one time. If they kill us again, they can go to Shangqiu to sue.

While thinking about it, there was a burst of heart-piercing cries from the front of the coffin queue. It seemed that they had seen the people gathered here.

This cry was like the first dark cloud in spring, attracting the spring rain in an instant, followed by cries everywhere, very neat.

Wu Zhu, who was in mourning and communicating with Teng Shuyu, also burst into tears in a hurry, and the people playing and beating behind him also started to get busy.

Teng Shuyu was restless, and thought that these people are not happy, since it is revenge, why bother to pretend to cry, as long as more people are hired to kill all Mohists.

He also thought, back then Mo Di relied on his mouth to deceive the king of Chu and dared not attack Song, but today he wants to see if his mouth can block his own sword.If he kills many Mohists with his own personality, he may be a Sima when the country is restored in the future.

…………

The cries followed the wind, and those who heard it felt uncomfortable. Many people looked sideways, not knowing what happened.

After getting closer, the people who had experienced the last sacrificial event recognized these witch wishes, and they couldn't help being surprised.

They all thought, didn't Mo Ji, who had Zhu Rongxue's golden crow wings last time, taught these witches how to sacrifice?It was still requested by everyone that day, I am afraid that Mo Zhe will leave in the future, it is better to let these witches learn, how come these people are all dead?

At this moment, Teng Shuyu and others walked out of the queue, staring at the villagers who were patrolling in the distance or following the carriages in the village, thinking that these Mohists in Xindaoguan might be incompetent, but they believed in them more in their hearts.

Teng Shuyu walked to the front, the cries near the coffin gradually stopped, Mo Zhe seemed not to hear them, and ignored the cries of these people at all.

The beautiful woman at the front of the coffin, dressed in filial piety and even more handsome, knelt down to Teng Shuyu, grabbed the ground with her head, and cried loudly: "Father's enemy is ours! This concubine is weak and weak. Revenge. Let the warriors help you to take revenge today! If Mo Zhe is vicious and cannot take revenge today, I will go with my father!"

After finishing speaking, he cursed a few words through gritted teeth, bit his index finger to make oaths, and bowed to Teng Shuyu again in front of a crowd of people, smearing his face with blood.

The woman cried: "My father has only one daughter, and he loves me the most. When I was poor, I saw other people riding in a car, so I wanted it, but it was difficult for my family to buy cattle and horses. My father made a small cart and pulled it himself. , I wanted to eat fish, but in the winter it was cold, so my father went there personally, even if his legs were numb from the cold, he wanted to catch fish for me.”

"When I was growing up to learn calligraphy, my father was reluctant to eat fat and ointment, so he kept some candles for me to learn calligraphy; later, my father was sick, so I just wanted to serve him, feed him and medicine, and stay with me for life."

"Those who go but can't be pursued are years; those who go but can't be seen are relatives. The son wants to support but the relatives don't wait, the world is the most difficult thing! Now that my father has passed away, I really want to die like this!"

When she said this, she suddenly pointed to Shi Shi who was standing under the sunflower in the distance, and cursed: "This is the man, kill my father! I can't die yet, and I want to avenge my blood relatives! Please warriors kill this man for me!" !"

After speaking, he knocked his head on the ground, blood flowed all over his face, blurring his beautiful face, making him even more pitiful.Although everyone didn't know what happened, and the woman didn't explain clearly, but listening to what this woman said, those life-like details were the most touching.

Everyone has parents, and I think of my parents' love when I was a child. At this time, those who have no parents, listening to the mourning and crying, feel inexplicably sad in their hearts.

Looking at this handsome and filial woman who was forced to have blood all over her face by Mo Ji, she felt sympathetic, but no one wanted to ask what happened.
