Volume 1 Covering the Sky with One Hand Chapter 24 Bloodline
Because it was too alarmist, even the governors of the seven states, the favored concubine, and the two royal heirs might not dare to do this even if Feng Chengyue had some courage.
This matter is related to Yuan Ji's life experience and Jiang Zimo's life and death.
According to the itinerary that year, the state pastors of the seven states, plus Jiang Zimo, and the late Feng Chengyue, the state pastors of the nine major states of Zheng State gathered together. This was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The gangsters who set fire to the boat may want the life of the Kyushu governor.
Let’s not investigate who was the instigator of the Flower Boat Case, but it happened to include Jiang Zimo. The Yanzhou Letter Case has now reached its initial conclusion. Jiang Zimo will be escorted back to Chongdu soon. If the people who wanted to harm him back then return,
If he were alive, then this trip to Chongdu would be like a narrow escape for him.
If Jiang Guo wants to save Jiang Zimo, she must find out who was behind the arson!
Jiang Guo rested his arms on his knees and said in a cold voice, "Tell me about this person."
Lu Bupin poured tea for her and said: "This person is from Daizhou. Daizhou is close to the north. The river in winter is frozen with thin ice. If you step on it, people will fall with it. This person has been fond of water since he was a child.
He has excellent water properties, and he has been taught by famous teachers and has practiced profound internal skills. He can hold his breath underwater for half an hour without taking a breath, and his physique is unusually strong. From a distance, he looks like a ferocious beast."
Jiang Guo thought for a moment. Kaiyuan Valley sects are spread all over the place. She often hears people talk about the world and secrets in the world. Naturally, she also hears a lot about strange people and strange things in the world.
After hearing what Lu Bupin said, she vaguely seemed to remember it, but it was just a few words and she still couldn't remember it.
She asked: "What is this man's name in the world?"
"He didn't use a pseudonym, he always used his real name." Lu Bupin said slowly, "The knights in the world call him, Raging Waves Rolling Frost and Snow, and the man lives up to his name, Black Bear."
…
When the order for the three heroes of the Chen family to go to Yanzhou was announced, Grand Sikong Pang Boyi reported and ordered the 20,000 new troops newly incorporated into the Forbidden Army in the west of the city to go together.
The destination of this team is Hongguan, a border crossing.
According to the normal route, you should leave Chongdu and cross the Hongshan Horse Road from the northwest to Daizhou, and finally arrive at Manhong Pass, and then replace the veterans whose enlistment orders have expired.
But this team followed the three heroes of the Chen family southward and entered the Jiangnan area of Yanzhou.
Although the leading military captain had a transfer order from Taiwei, it also stated that this trip was only to escort Tingwei to Yanzhou, and then he would take the waterway, passing through Menzhou to Manhong Pass.
However, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knew very well that Yanzhou was the ancestral land of the Jiang family, with deep roots and high prestige. This new army was an armed force to prevent the people of Yanzhou from rising, and Da Sikong had already made a plan.
He is bound to win Yanzhou.
In the seventh year of Zhongyong, Cui Yingong, the captain who was in charge of Zhen's exile team, was unanimously resisted by the Manhongguan border army because Zhen, the heir of Zhen, fled ridiculously. He had no choice but to return to Chongdu and was responsible for training the new army. On the eleventh day of Zhongyong
In the year, he once again took charge of the Imperial Army in the west of the old city and headed to Yanzhou together.
Among the accompanying veterans, there was a black bear who was unusually strong and strong.
As night fell, Black Bear swaggered out of the camp. He had drunk a lot of wine, and his steps seemed a little frivolous. He walked by and greeted a group of familiar soldiers along the way, and then went onto the street.
Then I bought some food in the shop and brought a pot of Yanzhou's unique "Chun Weilao," then strolled across the street and turned into a private house.
This house is a bit old and looks like an old house.
There is a small courtyard in front of the door, and a jujube tree is planted in the corner of the courtyard.
"There are trees everywhere in the outskirts of Chongdu. Why haven't I seen jujube trees before?" Black Bear rubbed his chin and sighed, "It's just that the solar terms are wrong. Jujube is green. If I stay here for a few months, I can probably taste a lot of jujubes."
"
"You're not promising, so you just want to eat dates?" The door of the hut was pushed open, and a man stooped out and walked out, "You haven't earned any military merit, so you just want to live a good life. Your pocket is cleaner than your face, so you don't want to save money to marry a wife?
"
The man who walked out was almost carved in the same mold as the black bear. He was tall and burly, much taller than the black bear.
The weather is cool today, but the chill after nightfall is quite strong, but this man is only wearing a thin cloth shirt, and his open chest muscles are dark and strong.
"Dad." Hei Xiong grinned and shook the wine bottle in his hand, "My son spends all his money thinking of honoring his father. No, Chun Wei Lao, Yanzhou's famous flower wine."
Black Bear's father is also called Black Bear. It is said that Black Bear's grandfather is also called Black Bear, but he is past middle age. Nowadays, everyone who knows him calls him Lao Xiong. Black Bear is already his son's name.
"You're not old this spring. I drank from you many years ago." Old Xiong walked to the wooden table next to the jujube tree and sat down. "When you were just born, I drank a full tankful of it. Your mother
Yeah, you even laughed at me and called me a drunk bear, hahahaha."
The old bear burst out laughing, and the black bear laughed too. He put down the wine bottle, went into the house and took two ear bowls, and went back to the yard to sit across from the old bear.
The wine cork was knocked open, and a hollow muffled sound mixed with the sound of wine sloshing out.
Black Bear poured the wine for Old Bear respectfully: "Dad, give it a try. If it doesn't taste the same as before, I'll destroy the shop later."
"He has a bad temper! He hits and smashes him at every turn." The old bear kept a straight face, but suddenly he laughed, "Like me, we are members of the Xiong family."
"Hey, if my son is going to be a high official in the future, he will have to marry him a dozen or so concubines." Hei Xiong raised the bowl with both hands, "He will give us a dozen or twenty cubs for our Xiong family."
The old bear laughed and clinked the bowl with the black bear, and then raised the drink, the wine dripping down the barbed white beard.
He put down the bowl, nodded heavily, and said, "Good wine! As expected, it still tastes like it did back then!"
After thirty years of drinking, Hei Xiong leaned on the creaky wooden table and asked, "Dad, you just said that you had been drinking for a while when I was born, but our Xiong family has been from Daizhou for generations."
"Haha, you and I traveled all over the country and visited many places in the past." Lao Xiong propped up the corner of the table and showed off, "I have my footprints in all the nine states. I went to Yanzhou with Daizhou Mu when I traveled far away.
, it was here that I met your mother."
There is no mother's breath in Hei Xiong's memory. From childhood to adulthood, it was Lao Xiong who took him single-handedly, from Daizhou to Menzhou. The most miserable years were still in Manhongguan.
In those years when he didn't have enough to eat, he would rob, and when someone bullied him, he would beat him. From a naughty kid to a gangster, he followed Lao Xiong all the way to Chongdu, where he finally settled down.
As for his horizontal kung fu training, Lao Xiong personally trained and taught him his moves. The most important thing is that he developed a life-threatening temper while growing up, which made him like a fish in water in the army.
"Dad, have you ever been with Daizhou Mu? I don't remember." Hei Xiong sighed, "My son has no future. He has been in Chongdu for so many years and is still a small soldier. Dad, my son has discredited the Xiong family."
Old Xiong knew that Black Bear was filial. Their father and son had been dependent on each other for many years. He always liked to talk about his wife who was unjust for profit, but Black Bear didn't like to talk about his own mother.
Old Xiong followed the words and comforted him: "Son, you are content with your blessings and misfortunes. You followed Cui Yingong and that fool escorted the team and made the felons escape. If you can save your head, it is the blessing of your ancestors. Sooner or later, you will have to follow the army to meet the people."
Hongguan, there are many rogue bandits there, if you have martial arts skills at your side, you will definitely be able to get ahead!"
"We fight all day long at the frontier. Dad, my son is not like you. All the brothers on the road respect you and say 'Roaring waves roll frost and snow,' and you are recognized by people wherever you go. There are many ways out." Black Bear shrugged his head and said to himself, "
My son is stupid, he has not practiced Kung Fu well, and his fists and feet are not as good as yours. My son, let me tell you the truth. I am afraid that I will not be able to come back after I go to the frontier. My son... my son wants to..."
Speaking of this, the black bear lost a lot of courage. He didn't dare to say that he was afraid of death, but he was really afraid.
After serving in the army for many years, Lao Xiong followed him and took care of him, like a steady mountain giving him courage and confidence.
He was afraid of leaving Old Bear.
"Have I ever told you about the strange disease of our ancestor of the Xiong family?" Old Xiong shook the wine bottle, "I'm old and don't remember many things. While I still remember, son, I'll give it to you.
Tell me about the strange disease of our Xiong family ancestors."
The black bear was all ears. He swallowed and looked at the old bear intently.
"Our Xiong family is not born and raised in Daizhou. Speaking of which, the blood of bandits is still flowing in you and me." Old Xiong poured half a bowl of wine for Black Bear, "Our hometown is far away from the Three Courts of the Desert. Our ancestors
My son's eyes are still tinted. The ancestral land is a tribe that enclosed the land. The tribesmen go out to hunt in the morning, and the women wash clothes in the tents to keep the fire. It is a place where the weak and the strong prey on the strong. But our grandpa has a strange disease. I'm afraid
Blood."
The black bear widened his eyes in surprise: "Afraid of blood? Don't you faint when you see blood? Isn't this like those skinny scholars in Chongdu who fall down when they see blood?"
"Well, that's really what happened." Old Xiong took a sip of wine and continued, "Because of this strange disease, our ancestor was kicked out of the tribe. He walked west along the river and took a big boat for half a year.
, after tossing and turning, I followed the camel team into the desert. Later, I encountered a sandstorm on the road and got separated from the team. In the end, I walked for six days without eating or drinking, and fainted in the desert. When I woke up, I found that he
After arriving at the Royal Court of Zhongzhang in the desert, I slowly married a wife and had children, and then the blood of our Xiong family has been passed down to you and me today."
Black Bear scratched the back of his head and hissed: "So, father and son are not from Zheng."
Old Xiong nodded: "The foreign invaders and the frontier soldiers have been at war all year round, but they often have trade exchanges with each other. However, these activities are done secretly and they don't dare to report it to the police. Your grandfather just followed your grandfather into the caravan and entered the caravan.
Manhongguan, and then stayed in Daizhou for a long time, and then settled down. Speaking of which, this disease is passed down from generation to generation. Your grandfather doesn’t have it. My father is your grandfather. He has it, but I don’t. When it comes to you... Ma
You man, if you don’t have an abacus, I really can’t figure it out. If you have one, I really don’t know.”
Black Bear is really not afraid of blood. Cui Yingong, the leader of the Forbidden Army in the west of the city, saw that his martial arts skills were amazing, so he was given a position in the training school.
He often fights with people, and it is common to see blood.
