Spring and Autumn I Am King

\"\"=\\'\')\"=\)\">

In mid-spring and February, the position of the sun's orbit is Kuisu; at dawn, Jianxing is in the middle of the southern sky; at dusk, the arc star is in the middle of the southern sky. ..↖,

As dusk approached, the robber looked at the looming arc star and sighed softly: "In the time of Shennong, the dwelling was quiet and leisurely, and the movements were free and easy, and all the people were like me, they only knew their mother, but not their father. Farming and eating, weaving and clothing, without the intention of harming each other, this is the era of the prosperity of morality.”

"So after I left, I hoped to recreate such an era in Onozawa, but my ability was limited, and I went the wrong way. Although there are regrets, but the more and more people under my command are gathered, there is no turning back.”

Wu Xie said: "I know that fish and bear's paws are not available for both. I went to Lu to participate in political struggles, and even fought fiercely with Qi people. Most of the time, it was not out of my will, but forced by the situation. If you want to go back to the original Heart, I am more willing to travel with my wives, concubines and sisters, and ride horses in the Great Plains."

Thief Zhi believed in this: "Of course, the longest lifespan is seventy years old, the middle lifespan is fifty years old, and the low lifespan is no more than thirty years old, and there are even those who die prematurely. Among them, the time to laugh is only four or five days in a month. The sky and the earth are infinite, and the lifespan of human beings is limited. I heard Confucius said a word, saying that the dead are like Sifu, who will not give up day and night. With a time-limited life entrusted to the endless world, its rapid disappearance is like a thousand miles of horses suddenly galloping through the gap."

The shirtless fingers tap the wine case lightly. In life, the white horses have passed by, and many philosophers will think hard and fail. But no one could have imagined a thief who was murderous and spurned by the scholars and officials. He actually thinks about this ultimate question.

It was probably that Roof Zhi had been used to being a savage and had freedom since he was a child. He was taken over to Lucheng when he was a little older, and Liu Xiaji instilled him with various rules of etiquette and music.

Robber Zhi sneered: "It's ridiculous that Kongqiu knew this, but he wanted to use a limited time to restore the rule of Zhou Gong, who could not return. Once he figured it out, he would live in a temple in Lucheng, and be a doctor in a city who died in the **** bed. ; Or entangled in the righteousness of the monarch and ministers. Those who rashly seek the dead with loyalty; or those who seek power all their lives, but are still dead bones in the tomb after death, they are all ridiculous people. With limited bodies to travel the world, Traveling across the world and making myself happy, this is the reason why I escaped from the cage in Lucheng, and the ambition I want to seek!"

It turns out that, like Zhuangzi, he would rather be a tortoise dragging its tail and crawling around in the mud of Onozawa. They are also unwilling to be enshrined in the temple as a divination after being taken out of the shell.

Wuxi sighed: "Zishi's ambition is great. I used to underestimate you before. Speaking of which, in your eyes, I was probably unscrupulous in order to seek power, but after death, I was still a dead person."

"Of course!" Robber Zhi's eyes filled with sarcasm: "Xiao Sikou has self-knowledge, although you are benevolent, virtuous, pure and filial in front of the world, respecting the virtuous and rank and file. But you are essentially no different from Yanghu and Sanhuan. Being a thief is nothing but stealing people's money and life. But you, Xiao Sikou! You are the thief who steals the country!"

From capturing Zhencheng, to defeating Yanghu and attacking thieves to gain huge benefits, and finally to capture the entire Xilu, which is enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with Sanhuan.

The thief's foot was broken, and he was not angry: "I am alive. I am bound by all kinds of relationships. In my life, I am afraid that I will not be able to achieve such a happy state of mind as Zishi. Those who steal the hook are punished, and those who steal the country are princes. Now This is the way of the world. To be honest, I do have the ambition to steal Xilu, and I want you to help me."

Robber Zhi stood up abruptly: "This is different from my original aspirations. I was forced to do everything by you before, why should I help you?"

Wu Xie said indifferently: "Because I not only want to steal the country, I also want to steal the hearts of the people!"

...

In February, this is the solar term of rain, the peaches and plums begin to bloom, the oriole chirps, and the eagles and birds become cuckoos.

The spring rain was as precious as oil, and the thin raindrops fell sparsely, creating thousands of ripples on the lake, wetting the wooden fence of the pier, and falling on the proud gentleman's bun and dark clothes, but it did not disturb the two people's concentration. conversation.

"I will also steal the frozen scorpion of the people of Onozawa, and the harsh tyranny imposed by the princes and officials! I will steal their destinies as low as pigs and dogs!"

Zhao Wuxi's words were filled with passion, and Thief Zhi was stunned for a while.

"There is a saying called Chunjiang Plumbing Duck Prophet. Zishi has been in Dayezawa for so many years. You know the changes in Dayezawa in the past half a year. You keep saying that looting is not what you want, but for the people under you. Now that I can do better than you, it can be considered to be free from your bondage."

Robber Zhi looked into the distance and raised his arms high to the people cheering at the spring rain. Indeed, after the half-starved group of thieves landed on the shore, they became Zhao Wuxi's householder of Qimin. Under the jurisdiction of his good officials, he distributed food and clothing, and reclaimed wasteland on the shore. Although the life was still very hard, it was already good. Get rid of the low life of starvation.

It's like, just like the spring breeze is blowing, the ice of the past is melting one after another, disarming and returning to the field, casting swords into plows, isn't this the life that the people look forward to.

So Robber Zhi had to admit: "This is the difference between Xiao Sikou and other meat eaters. If you love him like a child, the people will return to him like running water. As long as you don't act in reverse, your wish to steal the country will definitely be fulfilled."

Wu Xie's words became serious again: "It's not that easy, everything is unstable right now, Xilu and Punan are not at ease, Qi and Wei are staring at the outside world, and Sanhuan even wants to expel me immediately. Maybe it only takes day and night. In time, all of this will come to nothing. At that time, two-thirds of Qi's tax, half of Lu's tax, harsh punishment, and repression in the name of ritual and music will return to everyone. I think Zishi may not want to see such a situation, so I hope you can help me fight against the princes and the three huan..."

Thief Zhi hesitated: "Since Xiao Sikou knows my ambition, does he still dare to hire me? A person like me will never be condescending to the powerful, and will never be subject to the ritual and music of the law."

"I know, so I won't count on you to help me settle down the country. As long as you help me level the barriers, I will take care of the people you care about, and then I can let you travel around the world."

Zhao Wuxi had figured it out clearly, in the final analysis. Thief Zhi is an angry young man who speaks of pleasure in the rivers and lakes, but is pitiful in his heart, unable to let go of things.

Sure enough, Thief Zhi's eyes lit up: "Is this true?"

"Of course, and you keep saying that you want to enjoy the rivers and lakes, but you are actually confined to the corner of Onozawa. Although it is also forced by the situation and concerns about the lives of your subordinates, in fact, it is because you don't know that there is a world in this world. How big!"

Thief Zhi disagreed: "Could it be that Xiao Sikou knows?"

"I know." Wu Xie is not humble at all, is there anyone in this world who knows better than him?

"Someone named Dayu to draw a tribute to Yu, and divided Xia, Chu, Wu and Shu into nine states: Jizhou between the great rivers; Yanzhou between Jihe; Qingzhou in Haidai; Xuzhou in Hai, Dai and Huai; Xuzhou in Huai and Hai; Wuyue is Yangzhou; Jingchu is Jingzhou; Jingshan and Dahejian are Yuzhou; Huayang and Heishui are Liangzhou; Heishui and Xihe are Yongzhou. Your knowledge will probably not exceed the land of nine states."

Thief Zhi said: "The Kyushu is already the limit of the eyes, and he can't travel all over his life. In addition, it has been called the Four Outer Wasteland clothing since ancient times. Is it possible that Xiao Sikou knows more?"

"I know. It was the ancestor who traveled westward from Emperor Mu, and he left a book of bamboo... Today I will share with you, what is the distance between the rivers and lakes, the world is big!"

Although he is not good at chemistry, he is still good at geography!

...

With his shirtless hand dipped in wine, he drew the image of Yugong Kyushu on the table, but outside, there were many blank spaces. There are oceans and there are islands. There are also contiguous continents.

"Zhuzhong records that the so-called Chinese name is Chixian Shenzhou. Within Chixian Shenzhou, there is Yugong Kyushu, as well as Dongyi, Nanman, Beidi and Xirong. There are eight such as Chixian Shenzhou outside China. There are a total of nine continents, and outside each continent is surrounded by seas, mountains, and quicksand. People cannot communicate with each other. The nine continents are combined into the world, and outside the world, there is the Milky Way. This is the boundary between heaven and earth."

"So the Kyushu you can see is only one percent of the world!"

Thief Zhi was a little sluggish: "This. Are these true?"

Wu Xie laughed in his heart, but said seriously on his face: "There is no falsehood, how big is the Dajiuzhou, and my ancestors made fathers have never been to the wasteland of the Western Regions from the Tianshan Mountains and Kunlun. He is separated by From the mountains and quicksand, you can see Xishanzhou further west. It is said that Yuzhi merchants who traded in Qin and Jin Dynasty said that there was a big country in Xishanzhou called Persia. To the west is Taixi Continent, with hundreds of small city-states, collectively called Greece…”

"As for east, south, and north, those continents are unknown. Only the people of Qi have been saying that there are Penglai, Yingzhou, and Abbots overseas. They can't be traced, maybe it's the edge of another continent."

What Wu Xie said was very specific, and Robber Zhi couldn't help but not believe it. He muttered to himself: "All of the above are really unheard of, but they are very real, and they really make me yearn for..."

Seeing that these words of his own really restrained the robber Zhi, Wu Xie hit the railroad while it was hot: "Zishi's ambition is to use his limited body to travel around the world, to make his own mood happy. If you are willing to steal the country for me, I will I will help your ship to go to the far east to see the true face of Sanxian Mountain~www.wuxiahere.com~ Or take a caravan to the far west of Persia, as well as the Greek city-states of Athens and Sparta to find out. , how!"

In the past, Robber Zhi had always regarded himself very highly. He only felt that he was also a thief. Unexpectedly, I found out today that the sight of my eyes is actually so small, and the self-esteem in the past was very high. In Zhao Wuxi's eyes, it may be like a micro-worm fighting on a snail's horn.

So he bowed a little absent-mindedly: "As much as I wish, but I don't know, what else can I do for Xiao Sikou now?"

Wu Xian became serious again: "Although the people of Qi have been defeated in the war, they are unable to recruit troops to take revenge, but I got news from Taoqiu that the Duke of Qi wants to use the technique of controlling the weight and the method of the sea king to make things difficult for Xilu in terms of goods. , I hope the stone can help me."

Thief Zhi was very puzzled: "This should be handed over to Duanmuci, a merchant under Xiao Sikou. I don't understand the business of goods."

"No." Zhao Wuxi lowered his voice: "This matter not only depends on the market, but also depends on the ships transporting goods on the rivers and lakes..."
