Chapter 3 Killing Chickens as an Example
Zhu Wulu was not dead, but Xu You looked at him, maybe he felt that he was worse than death.
The right eye was dug out, the left hand was cut off, the right foot was cut off, the right foot was broken as far as the ankle, and the handsome face was covered with knife marks, which looked ferocious and terrifying. But the clothes on her body were still as white as snow. However, when she was wearing it, it seemed as if the evil ghost in hell had been wearing holy Buddha clothes. No matter how she looked, she felt terrifying, probably no one would want to call him the Snow Monk from now on.
Xu You only looked at Zhu Wulu and looked away, thinking about Du Mingyu's intention. First, it was Zhu Fayan's head, and then it was Zhu Wulu's appearance that was not human, and no ghost,
Is this a warning?
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey?
As a prisoner, you must have the awareness of a prisoner. Du Mingyu said that he would send him out of the city with gifts. This may not be a lie, but the premise of gifts must be that Xu You meets certain conditions he proposed, or, like Zhu Wulu, it makes him look very useful.
Only those who have value in use will receive corresponding courtesy. Xu You has always been very clear about this. Du Mingyu should want him to do what he should do, and he may have vitality and disobedience. The monks from Dade Temple are the lessons learned from the past.
Du Mingyu looked at Xu You's expression with interest and suddenly said, "Do Qilang think I'm too cruel?"
Of course, Xu You is not a Virgin who seeks to repay grudges with virtue. If you have evil, you will take revenge. It is natural that Gao Hui, a family of four whom Zhu Wule directly or indirectly, died of a bad life. It is not worth jealous of death ten thousand times, but if you die, you will die. Why bother torture him for fun like this?
"There is a deep meaning in offering wine to do things, and I dare not argue with it!"
Du Mingyu raised his head, looked at the graceful lotus in the middle of the lake, and said, "I promised Gao Hui too much that he would kill Zhu Wulu to avenge his whole family. However, Zhu Wulu is useful to me, so I had to save his life first. But I couldn't say anything wrong with what I said, so I took a lottery to comfort Gao Hui's spirit in the sky."
Xu You listened quietly without making any sound!
"Of course, I don't hide it from you. Zhu Wulu will be taken to parade soon, first in Qiantang, then to Zhuji, Shangyu, Yuyao and other places. In the future, every time I buy a piece of land, I will take him to parade and show his presence. I want those who are inclined toward Buddhism, openly and secretly, to look at it. Even their Buddhist children have become like this. Let anyone have the courage to disobey the Heavenly Master and believe in the evil gods in the future!"
abnormal!
This matter is perverted, but Xu You has nothing to say. The war between religions is originally more cruel and bloody than the secular war. The three martial arts that occurred in the past time and space almost killed all the Buddhist sects. When the Buddhist sect was in power, the Taoist sect was always suppressed and weakened, and it almost became difficult to turn over several times.
These days, it is not easy to compete for incense. Who can tell who is right and who is wrong?
Zhu Wulu knelt on the ground. Because of his incomplete body, he was unable to control balance. He tilted to one side in a slanted manner. He had to support the ground with his right hand. The only eye left was gone with the divine light that had shined in the past, but he still stared at Du Mingyu. It took a long time to slowly move to Xu You.
Surprised, doubted, resentful, and unstoppable shame and unwillingness, Xu You could hardly imagine seeing so many emotions in a person's eyes. The snow monk who once stood high above the lotus seat and smiled at the preaching of the people cannot escape the world. When in absolute adversity, calmness, indifference, willingness and letting go are just words that confuse believers. He is not a Buddhist son, but an ordinary person with ambition, desire, grudge, resentment, joy, anger, sorrow and happiness.
When a person is born with evil nature, his snow-white monk robe can cover up his temporary ugliness, but he still can't cover up his lifetime!
Obviously, he hated the house and Wu, and Zhu Wulu regarded Xu You as Du Mingyu's accomplice. Although Xu You was not afraid, he did not intend to take the blame. He shrugged and said, "I am a prisoner of Du Jijiu, and I am no different from Master Zhu."
Zhu Wulu turned his gaze to Du Mingyu again, without hiding the hatred in his eyes. Du Mingyu didn't care, his eyes wandered up and down, as if he was admiring a work of art carved by him, exquisite, beautiful, flawless, and said: "Qilang, do you know why I only took one eye, one hand, and one foot?"
Without waiting for Xu You to answer, his lips were raised, and there was indescribable satisfaction between his eyebrows and eyes, and he said, "If you see all your eyes, how can he see how those who have bowed to him despise him? If you see all your hands, how can he write an article accusing Buddhism of debauchery and innocence to read to the world..."
Xu You became more and more afraid of Du Mingyu, because the madman did not play according to the routine, and no one knew what crazy he would do next. Seeing his eyes swept over, he had no choice but to act as a supporting role and said, "What about... what about your feet?"
"If you leave your feet, he will not be able to sit up. Those who don't know think that Master Zhu is still sitting upright on the lotus platform to meticulously practice. Why not let him walk lamely and shake his way one step at a time and fall, wouldn't it be fun?"
Killing people is just a head-on point. Throughout history, can you see that a violent king can last forever? Du Mingyu wants to use Zhu Wulu's body to shock all the enemies of the Three Wus. But will such humiliation arouse others' desire to share the same hatred and thus have a rebellious effect?
Xu You did not agree with Du Mingyu's approach, but he also knew that Du Mingyu did not intend to operate Yangzhou into a century-old foundation. For him, it only took a few months to drag the central army from Jinling. The people's hearts were not important to him, so he didn't need to think about it so much.
"I won't let you do it..."
Zhu Wulai actually said something. Xu You thought his tongue had been pulled away, but his usual pleasant and gentle voice turned into a shrill low howl. In his previous life, Xu You had gone hunting with his friends, and the wild wolf whose legs were trapped in his legs made such a desperate and unwilling roar.
But at this point, what's the use of howling?
"Can't it?"
Du Mingyu smiled and shook his head, turned to Xu You and said, "Do you want Qilang to make a bet with me? I won't bet for seven days. Zhu Wulu will shake his tail and beg for mercy at me like a dog. No matter what he asked him to do, he would be willing to do?"
Xu You's eyelids drooped, as if he couldn't bear it, and said, "Jijiu is the dealer. No matter how you bet, you will win, why take advantage of me? Master Zhu is a smart person. If Jijiu knows his feelings, he will naturally get what he wants! The punishment is too much, which will hurt the harmony of the sky. I hope Jijiu thinks twice."
The smile on Du Mingyu's face suddenly disappeared. He stared at Xu You for a long time, waved his hand, and asked his subordinates to take Zhu Wulu away, and said, "Is Qilang softened?"
Xu You and Zhu Wulu have no friendship, so they have no time to worry about others when they are too busy. However, he deliberately showed a little bit of a woman's kindness, making Du Mingyu think that he can see through his heart, grasp his weaknesses, and then use his weaknesses to achieve the goal of controlling him.
Everyone has weaknesses, and Xu You is no exception. Instead of letting the enemy discover and exploit it, it is better to show the enemy as weak and give him a ready-made one. Through Du Mingyu's performance just now, Xu You found that what he likes is not to control his body, but to control people's hearts, so he saw a crack in someone's heart, just like a loach drilling hole, and he had to go in and see it clearly.
However, this person is too smart and will not be so easy to be fooled, so you have to subtly influence him and give him some sweets first and take it step by step.
"The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and it is inevitable that it will be sad!"
"It's different, Qilang and Zhu Wulu are different..."
"It's true, he is a Buddhist son after all!"
"Buddha son? Dog Buddha son!" People like Du Mingyu, who are elegant and elegant, can even curse, which makes Xu You look at him and said, "It's just a puppet introduced by Zhu Daorong. How can it be compared with Qilang?"
Xu You hasn't figured out why Du Mingyu looks at him differently. In terms of talent, appearance, background and reputation, Zhu Wulu is not bad, and even has it, but the treatment they received is very different.
Although Buddhism has a grudge against Tianshidao, Xu and Tianshidao have a lot of grudges, which makes no sense!
"Jijiu is looking for me to be happy again. What a person Zhu Daorong Zhu Sect Master, it is also an amazing achievement in the world that he can choose to be used as a puppet."
"Zhu Daorong..."
Du Mingyu did not refute. No matter how arrogant he is, he could not help but lower his head when he heard Zhu Daorong's name, and then lower his momentum. He was only twelve points of anger and was half gone. How could he fight with others? How could he beat them?
"Qilang, do you think that saying this will make Zhu Wulang grateful? No, I can guarantee that if he gains power again in the future, the first one to kill me, and the second one is definitely you!"
This is very likely. Xu You witnessed the miserable trough of Zhu Wulu's life. If there was really a salted fish turning over, he would definitely want to kill all the insiders. There is no doubt about this.
"Are Jijiu afraid of his revenge?"
Du Mingyu asked back, "Where is Qilang?"
Xu You smiled but didn't answer, and Du Mingyu smiled, and did not continue the topic.
If you are afraid of revenge, then don’t live anymore. Those who accomplish great things cannot have no enemies. Only with enemies can they have motivation. This is not a problem for Xu You or Du Mingyu!
Furthermore, Zhu Wulu's life is now in Du Mingyu's hand. When he has no value in use and takes his head out of one sentence, he should have no chance to turn things around.
"I have tried my best to ask Qilang to stay here. In fact, there is a key thing to ask for! Qilang must be the one who must not refuse this matter."
I have played all the methods that should be played, and I have tested them. Xu You thought to himself: The main show has come, but he said, "Although I have a name for myself, it is not worthy of it, and my martial arts are all lost. There is no place to help me sacrifice wine."
"Lu Xu is known as the No. 1 of the Three Wus, but even Qilang Yicheng's literary talent is not as good as Qilang's. Why should you be too humble?" Du Mingyu did not give him the opportunity to refuse, and said directly: "The Heavenly Master cannot lose his righteousness when he starts a business. The so-called "Not justified" will be unpleasant, so I am going to issue a manifesto to declare the world so that the world can know why we are rebelling. This is about to rely on Qilang's talent and glory..."
This is really a matter of being a archway. Xu You didn't answer this. How could the manifesto be written easily? It was difficult to satisfy Du Mingyu if it was written lightly, but it was written heavily. An Zidao was not Cao Cao or Wu Zetian, and he would not have forgiven the serious crime of rebellion because of his appreciation of his siege.
Du Mingyu said it nicely. When the Yangzhou incident happened, he would send him out of the city. But if he wrote a manifesto, even if he had left Qiantang, where would he go?
Xu You pondered silently, and Du Mingyu didn't urge him. The two sat opposite each other for a long time. Xu You suddenly asked, "What do the prophecies Gao Hui shouted before his death mean?"
"The first few sentences are not obscure, Qilang should understand. As for the later..., under Xinsu, Meng Zhangxiu. Xinsu is the Great Mars. The Book of Songs has a sentence that the fire flows in July, which means that there will be a fire in late July..."
"The July fire... Taiping?"
"It's Taiping!"
Du Mingyu finally admitted that the destruction of Taiping Cang was done by Tianshidao, but what if he knew, it would be useless. Xu You sighed: "I admire you!"
"There are several people from Tianshidao in the warehouse guarding Taiping Cang. It is not a big deal to set fire." Du Mingyu said it easily, but he had to take action in the well-prepared Taiping Cang. Without precise planning and deployment, it is impossible to succeed. He continued to explain: "As for Meng Zhang, I wonder if Qilang had read the "Qianyuan Jing"? Meng Zhang was the Qinglong God Lord, and the dragon turned into the emperor. Meng Zhangxiu meant that the Emperor Star fell. Even Taiping Cang had a fire. The disaster in Yangzhou was irreversible, and the chaos was imminent. How could the emperor be stable in Jinling City?"
"It's that simple?"
Du Mingyu showed a helpless expression and said, "Qilang, you are too smart, it is extremely difficult to hide it from you. Well, I know everything to show my sincerity. Xinsu is one of the seven Qinglong Constellations, and Qinglong is also a secret agency in my department responsible for investigating information. It was the Xinsu Star of Qinglong Division who burned Taiping Clan. After Taiping Clan was destroyed, in order to avoid being smelled by the yellow-eared dogs of the Canghusi, all the people in the Qinglong Division were hidden. This is also the second meaning of Meng Zhangxiu, under Xinsu."
"The rumors of the July Fire came out from Gao Hui, and then spread among the Taoist people for a long time. Many people were half-believing and half-doubted. When Taipingcang really caught fire, they believed that the emperor had lost his virtue and began to follow the Heavenly Master wholeheartedly to cause trouble."
"The emperor has lost his virtue?"
"When you are close to the house, the world is united. The Heavenly Master observes the celestial phenomena at night, and the heart becomes a wonder of five stars gathering together, which means that the world is united. The emperor has lost his virtue, and everyone in the world agrees to establish the emperor."
"I see!"
Xu You suddenly realized that he didn't talk much about the Book of Changes. Although he was not as good as An Yao and He Ru, he was also considered to be aware of the scriptures. However, no matter what, he did not expect that the six simple words actually contained so many meanings.
"Then, let's start and fight the bull?"
"Can Qiluo know the difference?"
Xu You nodded. The dividing is the location of the twenty-eight constellations corresponding to the various prefectures and counties on the ground. He is extremely smart and can be seen at a glance: "I understand. The dividing of dividing is Yizhou, which refers to the Tianshi Palace of Heming Mountain. The dividing of dividing and bull is in Yangzhou... It is amazing, powerful, and it is in the name of the celestial stars, but it is secretly in line with the overall plan of the sect. I realized it later, and it is really stupid!"
"If Qilang is a stupid person, where is there any smart person in the world?" A complicated look flashed in Du Mingyu's eyes, as if he had a new understanding of Xu You's wisdom, or was considering such a person, whether he could be as sure as before, firmly controlled in his hands.
Xu You said again: "Guan, ginseng is the seven constellations of the white tiger, and the seven constellations of the bull is the seven constellations of the Xuanwu. Could it be that there are two groups of white tigers and Xuanwu under the command of the Jiujiu? They caused the huge waves in Yangzhou?"
"Yes, my five divisions are good at attacking and Xuanwu are good at defending. From the cooperation between the two divisions, the overall situation in Yangzhou can be determined!"
The Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Xuanwu are the four spirits. Xu You couldn't help but wonder what is another one besides the four spirits? However, looking at Du Mingyu's expression, he thought he wouldn't disclose it, so he stopped asking.
