Chapter 435: So that history does not repeat itself
The end of the Chou hour is when a person sleeps the deepest.
After getting used to the sound of the flowing river, Jiang Qingzhi slept more soundly.
"Qingzhi, remember to go on a blind date tomorrow."
"understood."
Jiang Qingzhi agreed reluctantly.
"What do you do?" The girl asked coldly across the small round table, even a little impatient, which made Jiang Qingzhi feel a sense of sympathy.
"Are you talking about before or now?"
“Of course it’s now. Who treated you before…” The lipstick on the girl’s lips flipped, and she grasped the edge of the designer bag with both hands.
"I'm unemployed now." Jiang Qingzhi smiled.
"Unemployed?"
“Yes, the kind without income.”
"I have something to do. I'm leaving now."
"it is good."
Jiang Qingzhi drank coffee alone and felt that this world-famous coffee chain was not as good as the country coffee shops in South America, let alone the teahouses in China.
Just like the girl just now, something doesn't taste right.
He paid the bill and walked out of the cafe.
"...I told you he was a psychopath, but you didn't believe me. He said he was unemployed and had no income. Wasn't that intentional? Second Aunt...Yes, he did it on purpose. He didn't want to go on a blind date, so why would I? What? He looked everywhere! Why? He has money? How do you know?"
The girl was waiting for an online ride-hailing car diagonally opposite, pacing back and forth and talking on the phone with someone.
"He gave his parents five million? Why didn't you tell me earlier! Hey! Hey! Then I'll go back now. What's the shame? Do you know how difficult it is to find a way to make a living these days?
Those who can give their parents 5 million are not only good people, but also good money. That's it, Second Aunt, don't worry, with my appearance, if I lower my head slightly, can he still remain indifferent? Wait..."
The girl looked up inadvertently and saw Jiang Qingzhi.
Jiang Qingzhi shook his head slightly.
Girl, I'm really not interested!
"Are you still there? Hello, hey, hey! Xiao Wei, Xiao Wei..."
Jiang Qingzhi opened the car door and got in.
His car is a domestically produced one, the kind that doesn't look impressive.
The girl said after a long while: "Second Aunt, this guy is just pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. Why? He, he drives a domestic car!"
One by one, the girls flashed by in my dream, some bright, some dim.
It's like flowers floating in the air.
Jiang Qingzhi watched them floating in the water with cold eyes, and suddenly felt sad.
Am I not also messing around in this world?
All life is suffering, and much of the suffering comes from the rules of this world.
You must do this when you are studying, you must do this when you are working, you must do this when it comes to lifelong events, you must do this when you are treating your children... This is a cycle.
Jiang Qingzhi knelt down devoutly in front of the Buddha statue, praying to the Buddha to protect him, so that he could have an epiphany and escape from the sea of suffering.
The Buddha was speechless and looked at all living beings with majesty, but the hand seal he made was OK.
Jiang Qingzhi understood. Since he didn't like this kind of life, why not leave?
So he said goodbye to his parents who had already started their own families and began his traveling life.
At first, he was very excited, rushing between each scenic spot like checking in every day, taking pictures of the scenery with his phone, but never looking at them twice. He let go of his five senses and constantly felt these unfamiliar places.
But the further he went, the more confused and exhausted he felt.
What's the point of living?
Why travel?
Do I like traveling, or do I want to escape loneliness and the current situation where I can’t find the meaning of life through traveling?
Why am I alive?
He suddenly realized that living itself is the meaning, and living every moment is the value of life...
So he resumed his cynical attitude and continued to wander around the country alone, following his heart and being free.
He no longer pondered why people live, what is the meaning of life, and what is the value of existence...
He only knows how to live in the present moment and enjoy it.
Ming dynasty!
Jiang Qingzhi's dream suddenly changed.
Countless soldiers wearing red scarves were charging into battle, singing: "Holding ninety-nine steel swords, I will not stop until all the barbarians are killed... I am a man, why should I serve the Tartars as a horse or an ox."
He saw the army marching out of the border, the emperor charging with a sword, and turned back and shouted: "All the soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy!"
He saw the army being defeated and the emperor being captured.
He saw gunpowder filling the capital, the emperor being taken to the city by the enemy, and dark clouds filling the air...
He saw a civil servant standing on the top of the city wall, shouting: "The Ming Dynasty will never negotiate peace with foreign races!"
He saw the Japanese pirates rushing ashore and burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of atrocities.
He saw the foreign tribes outside the Great Wall roaring: "I have seven great hatreds against the Ming Dynasty..."
He saw a Ming general raised his hand, "Open the gate."
He saw civil and military officials and scholars kneeling on the ground and shaving each other's hair.
He saw those scholars stroking their bald foreheads, pulling at their thin braids, and smiling happily...
He saw countless flashes of swords and shadows, and slaughters time and time again...
He saw warships appearing on the coastline of this great empire, and boxes of poison were being transported ashore amid the sound of cannon fire.
He saw the empire sinking...
can not be like this!
Why am I alive?
Jiang Qingzhi suddenly opened his eyes.
"In order to prevent this history from happening again!"
Shouts and screams came from behind the camp.
"My Lord, the enemy is attacking." It was Mo Zhan outside the tent.
"understood."
Jiang Qingzhi was sleeping in his bed with his clothes on. He stood up and walked out of his tent, and suddenly he saw a fire at the back of the camp.
The enemy troops who launched the night attack lit torches and rushed towards the camp with cheers.
There were dozens of people running around in the camp, and it looked quite real.
"Chen Bao performed well." Jiang Qingzhi praised.
The enemy rushed to the edge of the camp, pulled open the fence with ropes, and rushed in. "Set fire everywhere, and whoever kills Jiang Qingzhi will be rewarded!" Wang Xing shouted.
Zeng Suo followed him and couldn't help laughing when he saw his opponent panicking, "Is this the so-called famous general? Hahahaha!"
Wang Xing sneered, “When I show up at the Duke’s Mansion with Jiang Qingzhi’s head, it’s time to change the title of this famous general.”
The officers and soldiers seemed to be fleeing in panic deep into the camp, and Wang Xing and his men were chasing them closely.
"Drive them away!" Wang Xing shouted, "Don't let them gather together."
His target was Jiang Qingzhi's head, and secondly, killing Mu Shu.
The fleeing soldiers in front suddenly dodged to the left and right.
"That's the central army tent!" Zeng Suo was overjoyed and shouted, "Kill Jiang Qingzhi!"
In the darkness, someone said calmly: "Light a fire!"
Puff puff!
Torches were constantly lit, fluttering in the night wind.
A young man was standing in front of the big tent, holding something in his hand. The people around him held down the torch. The young man lowered his head and took a few puffs, then pointed at Wang Xing with the thing and ordered, "Closing the net!"
"call out!"
A whistle arrow was launched into the sky, and Wang Xing was shocked. "Jiang Qingzhi was well prepared."
Zeng Suo's expression changed drastically, "Retreat! Retreat!"
"We can't retreat!" Wang Xing was furious and kicked Zeng Suo to the ground. "There must be an ambush behind us. The only way to survive is to move forward. Follow me and kill Jiang Qingzhi!"
"Kill!" Sure enough, a group of cavalry rushed out from the rear.
In front, Jiang Qingzhi shook off the ashes from his cigarette and shouted, "Attack!"
After saying that, he took a deep breath of medicinal smoke and said, "Mu Chaobi really didn't let me down."
"kill!"
Teams of cavalry rushed out from both sides of the tent.
The cavalry began to massacre the infantry.
Teams of cavalrymen charged at the enemy, their spears gleaming in the night. An enemy soldier roared and rushed over, but was pierced through the abdomen by a spear. He howled miserably and twisted his body, looking like a grasshopper impaled on a dogtail grass.
The spear continued forward and penetrated the second enemy. The cavalry felt a huge resistance, let go, and then drew out the long sword.
The confident enemy army suffered a heavy blow and their morale was destroyed in an instant.
Wang Xing, with more than a hundred of his men, suddenly rushed out from between two teams of cavalry.
His eyes were red as he stared at Jiang Qingzhi. "The only way to survive is to kill Jiang Qingzhi. Follow me."
He charged forward with all his might, and he didn't know how long it had been. When he turned around with his long sword in hand, he found that there were only three people left behind him.
"Where's Zeng Suo?"
Zeng Suo fell twenty steps behind him, holding the spear that pierced his lower abdomen with both hands, and smiled bitterly: "Commander-in-chief, Jiang Qingzhi... is on guard, I'm afraid that big things... will be difficult to accomplish!"
"Kneel down and drop the knife, don't kill!"
The officers and soldiers began to persuade them to surrender.
Wang Xing was surrounded, and someone shouted, "Kneel down and drop the knife!"
"Hahahaha!" Wang Xing laughed wildly and looked around. Most of the 800 elite soldiers he brought with him were killed in the battle, and only dozens of them knelt on the ground to surrender.
"Jiang Qingzhi, you will die a miserable death sooner or later!" Wang Xing pointed the knife at Jiang Qingzhi and suddenly put it across his neck.
Half of my life experiences flashed through my mind like lightning, yet it seemed so slow as if I was experiencing it again.
Jiang Qingzhi was well prepared, that is, he had always been wary of Mu Chaobi.
If so, why did he come to Kunming? If he really wanted to escape, where else could he go? It is said that the military and civilians of Taizhou Prefecture revered Jiang Qingzhi as a god. Wouldn't it be better to go fishing at the seaside?
But Jiang Qingzhi chose to come to Yunnan, where it was the most dangerous for him.
The greater the risk, the greater the gain.
Governor, be careful of Jiang Qingzhi... Wang Xing wished he could fly to Kunming and tell Mu Chaobi his judgment.
He glanced at Jiang Qingzhi and saw Mu Shu.
Mu Shu looked up at Jiang Qingzhi and said something. The respect in his eyes was not concealed...
As soon as the hand was pulled, the person fell backwards.
Blood spurted out and a giant man walked over.
He looked down at Wang Xing.
"Governor, be careful..." Wang Xing murmured.
"What did he say?" someone asked.
The giant said, "I can't hear you clearly."
Jiang Qingzhi came over and said, "It's Mu Chaobi's people."
"Uncle, we can use this to expose Mu Chaobi." Someone said.
Xu Wei shook his head. "Mu Chaobi just needs to deny it. The most important thing right now is to shock the military and civilians of Yunnan. Otherwise, if Mu Chaobi really wants to take risks, our troops are not enough."
Jiang Qingzhi ordered: "Stone."
"Master!"
"The scouts should be near Kunming and waiting for my order. Go there tonight." A sharp light flashed in Jiang Qingzhi's eyes. "Just one thing, shock!"
"Leader!"
Sun Chonglou set out with dozens of riders.
The next afternoon.
The defenders received orders and have been very alert in recent days.
"Someone is coming."
Someone shouted from the top of the city wall.
"Set up the barricades."
"Archer!"
Following Mu Chaobi's instructions, the defenders formed a fighting formation.
More than a thousand defenders gathered outside the city.
More than a hundred riders came galloping.
On the top of the city wall, Zhang Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Inform the governor that Wang Xing... failed!"
