Chapter 119: Qin Hao chases Guo Jia under the moon

“Brother Jinglue, you are going to Yanmen Pass soon, and I, a scholar, can’t help you much, so I’ll just say goodbye.”

Mr. Guo said goodbye to Wang Meng with a faint smile.

Wang Meng was stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would leave so soon. He was about to persuade him to stay, but Hao Juncheng beat him to it.

"Mr. Guo, why are you leaving so soon? Why is Yanmen not so well-received?" Hao Juncheng stood up in a hurry and said.

Mr. Guo quickly waved his hand and said: "No, no, it's just that there is something urgent at home, so it is really inconvenient to stay for a long time."

Hao Juncheng also knew that what Mr. Guo said was just an excuse, but since Mr. Guo said this, he couldn't force him to stay, so he gave Wang Meng a wink and told him to keep Mr. Guo as much as possible.

Wang Meng nodded, but smiled and said to Mr. Guo: "Then I will give it to you, Fengxiao!"

That’s right, Mr. Guo, Wang Meng’s classmate and friend, is none other than the “ghost genius” Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao.

Hao Juncheng felt anxious when he saw that Wang Meng was not prepared to keep Guo Jia. He was about to say something, but he found that Wang Meng was giving him a wink, so he suppressed his words.

After leaving the prefect's residence, Wang Meng and Guo Jia strolled slowly along the streets of Guangwu, chatting with each other as they walked.

“It’s hard to imagine that Yanmen, a bitter cold place, has been managed to be so prosperous. There must be many difficulties in this, right?” Looking at the bustling street scene of Guangwu, Guo Jia couldn’t help but admired from the bottom of his heart.

"Yes, I came here two years ago and witnessed with my own eyes that this city has grown step by step to its current size. It is really not easy." Wang Meng sighed with some melancholy: "There were several crises where I was actually prepared to take action. It’s just that those few crises were finally resolved by Zhicai and Mr. Qin.”

"Master Qin?" Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, then asked in a playful tone: "Haha, brother Jinglue, are you so optimistic about that kid Qin Hao?"

“I’m not the only one who is optimistic about my lord, there’s also Master Wang. What’s more, you are the same too!”

As he spoke, Wang Meng snatched the brocade folding fan from Guo Jia's hand. When he opened it, he saw three sentences written on it:

Last night the west wind withered the green trees. I climbed up to the tall building alone and looked across the road to the end of the world.

 The belt becomes wider and wider, but I don’t regret it anymore. I feel haggard because of the beauty.

The crowd looked for him hundreds of times, but suddenly looking back, he found that man in a dimly lit place.

These are three lines from three poems written by Qin Hao during his study tour. Later, Qin Hao excerpted these three lines and called these three lines the "three major realms" of life. This statement is also recognized by most literati.

"give me back!"

When Guo Jia saw that Wang Meng had snatched away his beloved fan, he became anxious and quickly snatched it back.

"Fengxiao, please explain why your fan has poems written by my lord?" Wang Meng looked at Guo Jia with a slight smile and asked jokingly.

Guo Jia rolled his eyes at Wang Meng and said quibly: "I just admire that boy's literary talent. These three sentences are small words and great meaning, but should be used to praise the great vanity of life. They are the lifelong pursuit of the literati of our generation, so what happened to me writing them on the fan! "

“Just be tough. Fengxiao, are you really not considering staying and assisting my lord with me?”

Upon hearing this, Guo Jia immediately lowered his head and became somewhat silent.

Seeing this, Wang Meng continued to persuade: "You have never been in contact with my lord, so you don't know. The two of you are a perfect match together. By then, you will gain not only a wise master, but also a confidant in life." ,Why not do it?"

Guo Jia raised his head and said calmly: "Stop trying to persuade Brother Wang, I have my own reasons."

"The defeat of the Yellow Turbans has been doomed for a long time. You can't help but see it, so why bother wading into this muddy water?" Wang Meng advised earnestly.

"Haha, brother Jinglue, you are right. I know it, but I am not willing to accept it. For thousands of years, in the battle between poor families and rich families, the rich families always crush the poor families. Only this time, the poor families have a little bit of success. There is a chance of winning, but in the end it is estimated that it will inevitably fail.”

"Since you know, why don't you stay and assist my lord with me. With my lord's natural talents and my two assistants, he will surely be able to take back the world from the wealthy families in the troubled times in the future."    Guo Jia Looking at the sky in the distance, he said with some seriousness: "Everyone has his own path, and this path is chosen by you, Brother Jinglue, not mine. I, Guo Jia, rely on my own strength to take my path for the world." I have no regrets whether I succeed or fail."

Although Guo Jia's tone was gentle, Wang Meng could hear the firmness in it. His heart trembled and he opened his mouth but was speechless.

"Brother Jinglue, you are also a disciple of a poor family, and you must understand the pain in the hearts of poor people in the world. And when I go, even if I can't accomplish anything, I still want to let the families in the world know what the wrath of a common man is."

"Of course, if the path I chose fails, then I will help you complete the path you chose. So, Brother Jinglue, please stop trying to persuade me."

Hearing this, Wang Meng immediately smiled bitterly and said, "You've already said that, what else can I say? What are your plans?"

Seeing that his friend finally stopped objecting, Guo Jia smiled and said, "I'm going to assist Xiang Yu."

"Xiang Yu?" Wang Meng raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Feng Xiao, with your wisdom it is impossible not to see that Xiang Yu is not Zhang Jiao's heir, so what's the point of assisting Xiang Yu?"

“No matter who I assist, it will be difficult to stop the trend in the end, so I decided to take a gamble.”

 “Why Xiang Yu?”

"Throughout the ages, no one with double eyes has been ordinary. Every time they appear, they will stir up a storm. But double eyes, which have not appeared for four hundred years, actually appear in this life. Two people appear at the same time. It is difficult to imagine the troubled times in the future. What kind of chaos will it be?”

“The reason why I chose Xiang Yu is just to take a gamble on the illusory legend of double pupil. I hope Xiang Yu will not be like his ancestor Xiang Ji.”

"Heh." Wang Meng twitched the corner of his mouth and said helplessly: "It's your usual style, as sloppy as ever!"

Guo Jia ignored Wang Meng's sarcasm, but said with profound meaning: "Aristocratic family, poor family, coupled with the hundreds of schools of thought that are gradually emerging...the world is really getting more and more chaotic."

 …

It was already very late when Qin Hao started his journey, and it was already dark when he arrived at Guangwu.

As soon as he arrived at the east gate of Guangwu City, Qin Hao found Wang Meng standing at the gate of the city, as if he had guessed that he was coming back.

“Mr. Jinglue, where is Guo Jiaren?” Qin Hao asked impatiently.

"We have been walking for an hour, but Fengxiao was riding in a donkey cart. If my lord wants to catch up, it's still too late." Wang Meng said calmly.

 “Okay, I’ll chase you now.”

 “My lord, please wait, please listen to me...”

 After listening to what Wang Meng said, Qin Hao's brows furrowed so tightly that they almost formed a straight line.

“I’m going to give it a try no matter what.” Qin Hao gritted his teeth.

Having said that, Qin Hao turned the horse's head and galloped away to the south.

A bright crescent moon hangs alone in the sky, and its silvery moonlight puts on a new coat for the whole city.

At this moment, a handsome young man wearing silver armor rode a tall white horse, galloping quickly on the ancient road that had become silent.

The silver moonlight shines on the young man's silver armor, reflecting such a dazzling light that the young man looks like a **** general bathed in divine light.
