Chapter 23 Death is Vigorous

The story of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang’s uprising only brought different ideas to the few people in Qingshanzhai. The story of the Yellow Turban Uprising made more people with different ideas in their minds, especially those who constantly liberation of their thoughts.

Thoughts are thoughts. Except for He Yan asking questions in class, everyone else hides their thoughts in their hearts, thinking slowly about what the students are thinking, even Fang Nan can’t understand.

The story of the Yellow Turban Uprising did not bring about changes to the current situation of Qingshanzhai, but Fang Nan knew that the thoughts of the villagers were slowly changing.

As winter goes and spring comes, the second school year is passing by quickly. In a blink of an eye, there are less than three months left before the end of the second school year. After some time, the "Thousand Character Classic" will be completed by the students.

All the courses on the day ended. Hu Zhuang hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and walked towards Fang Nan's house. At this time, Fang Nan was writing something in the house. Hu Xiaoya sat next to Fang Nan, holding a piece of paper full of words in her hand and watching carefully.

Thumb! Thumb!

Two sounds of knocking on the wooden door sounded. Fang Nan and Hu Xiaoya both raised their heads and opened to the door, and found that Hu Zhuang was coming, which made the two of them a little confused. Hu Zhuang was their brother and did not need to knock on the door when they were talking. Generally speaking, only when students came over would knock on the door according to Fang Nan's requirements.

"Please come in!" Fang Nan said, this is his attitude towards students.

Hearing the sound, Hu Zhuang hesitated for a moment before entering the house.

"Is there anything wrong?" Fang Nan asked.

More than ten seconds passed, and Hu Zhuang didn't speak. Fang Nan could feel Hu Zhuang's breathing became heavier. Hu Zhuang's eyes turned to Hu Xiaoya from time to time. Fang Nan understood that this should be Hu Xiaoya in the house, and Hu Zhuang had something to say.

Fang Nan turned to Hu Xiaoya and said, "Xiaoya, go out first."

"Okay." Hu Xiaoya nodded, looked at her brother in confusion for several times before walking out of the house.

After Hu Xiaoya walked away, Fang Nan said to Hu Zhuang: "Xiaoya is gone, let's talk about anything."

Hearing this, Hu Zhuang spoke for several seconds: "Teacher, that, I...I imagine... Chen Sheng and Wu Guang... leading the people to revolt and overthrow the Ming Dynasty."

Stuttering, Hu Zhuang finally finished a sentence, and then welcomed Fang Nan's staring gaze. Hu Zhuang's gaze dodged a few times, as if he quickly made up his mind. Hu Zhuang's gaze stopped dodging and looked at Fang Nan.

"Are you serious? The chances of success of the uprising are very low. Once you fail, not only will you die, but your family, I and Qingshanzhai will be implicated by you."

"this?"

Hu Zhuang finally made a decision, but hesitated when he heard Fang Nan's words.

Hu Zhuang studied with Fang Nan for nearly two years. At first, Hu Zhuang thought about studying and literacy and living a good life in the outside world. Later, he had the dream of becoming a general commander of thousands of troops. In the second school year, under the influence of a peasant uprising story of Fang Nan for more than a month, Hu Zhuang had the idea of ​​leading the people to uprising and overthrow the Ming Dynasty.

It is not surprising that Hu Zhuang had this idea. The people in Qingshanzhai fled into the mountains because they could not live outside. Like the farmers in the stories of peasant uprisings, they were all the targets of oppression and exploitation by the government and landlords, and Hu Zhuang was easily immersed in it.

It just so happened that Hu Zhuang also had the dream of becoming a general. This dream was part of his current dream, especially Hu Zhuang unexpectedly learned that "If you want to live outside, you must have a 'household registration', and these mountain people do not have a 'household registration'." These things made Hu Zhuang have some determination.

Then Hu Zhuang came to Fang Nan and told him about this matter. As long as Fang Nan agreed or supported him, Hu Zhuang would make up his mind and work hard for this dream.

Hu Zhuang knew that the result of the failure of the uprising was death, but he did not expect that it was a serious crime to kill the nine clans. The failure of the uprising not only would he die, but his relatives and friends would all die. The entire Qingshan Village would be implicated because of Hu Zhuang, so Hu Zhuang hesitated again.

While Hu Zhuang was still hesitating, Fang Nan asked another question: "How much confidence do you think you have in doing this?"

Hu Zhuang answered this question quickly, and he said: "The chance of success is very small, and it will be a lifetime of death."

"Since the chance of success is so small, why did you choose this path? If you die, what should you do with your parents, sister and Su Ting?"

If Fang Nan hadn't told the Qingshan Village that women had a child that would be bad for their health, I'm afraid Hu Zhuang and Su Ting had already gotten married, and Su Ting was also one of Fang Nan's students.

Hearing Fang Nan's words, Hu Zhuang became even hesitant. The dream in his mind was slowly dissipating. This kind of change is normal. How many people will abandon their families and children in order to make achievements, let alone Hu Zhuang's plan is a "rebellion" with a very high probability of failure.

Hu Zhuang's changes are normal, but what Fang Nan did is a bit abnormal. Isn't Fang Nan's efforts over the past two years just to make his students rebellious about the Ming Dynasty? Hu Zhuang already had rebellious about it, so why did Fang Nan dispel this rebellious about it?

No, Fang Nan did not dispel Hu Zhuang's rebellion, but dispelled Hu Zhuang's idea of ​​preparing for practical actions. Fang Nan was the first person in Qingshanzhai to rebel and overthrow the Ming Dynasty. Fang Nan wanted to take everyone in Qingshanzhai as a team, and then slowly gather more power, and then go to the outside world to summon poor people to confront the Ming Dynasty.

Now that Hu Zhuang wants to take action, he may also bring in a few of his classmates to act together. Even if it has a significant impact on the outside world, it is expected to be wiped out by the Ming army in the end. Now it is the last glory of the Ming Dynasty and its strong strength. It is not easy to defeat the peasant uprising army with only cold weapons.

"Teacher, I didn't think about it carefully. I gave up on this matter." Hu Zhuang sighed and made the decision to give up.

Fang Nan did not answer Hu Zhuang's decision for the time being, but asked another question: "Why did you think of leading the people to revolt?"

"I came up with these ideas after listening to the stories of the Chen Sheng and Wu Guang Uprising and the Yellow Turban Uprising. Living in the mountains, it seems to be a happy thing for us to have enough food, but I feel it is not enough. I want to live a good life outside, eat good food, wear clothes, and live in a big house.

It was the government and the Ming Dynasty that prevented us from living a good life. Only by overthrowing the Ming Dynasty could we live a good life. There were so many poor people in the world. As long as we could unite, we could overthrow the Ming Dynasty and live a good life together.

As a man, I don’t want to hide in the mountains all my life. Even if I fail to revolt, I will die vigorously, leaving my name in history like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.
