After all these things that happened tonight, Liu Xigua was waiting alone in this small shop for a few people from the Qi family to come over. Then, if a few people from the Qi family had a source of information, they suspected that the owner of this small shop was actually a person.
A relatively reliable guess.**(..)
The killers of the Qi family came in a hurry. Although it was difficult for Lou Jingzhi and others to separate their thoughts and control the overall situation, Ning Yi was a person who had spent a lifetime on people's hearts. It was not a big deal that he would still remain vigilant at this time.
Difficult thing. That thought just passed through his mind, and he only kept a few points of vigilance towards the boss. More thoughts were spent on the fight ahead, but Qi Xinyong's shout was too shocking, and he subconsciously
When he was about to draw his gun, a figure suddenly appeared beside him, and the muzzle of the gun was handed to the opponent's head.
No matter how martial arts masters, if they want to kill Liu Xigua in this situation, they have to fight with all their strength, but how can they withstand the blow of the musket. Here, everyone is shocked, and several members of the Qi family are also brave enough to see the situation.
When something bad happened, he ran away. On the long street, it suddenly became cold.
He just started to introduce himself, and he ran away before he could finish it. It was a bit rude, but no one really took his bloody massacre of people recently. The response was cold, so he was used to it.
On the other side, Lou Jingzhi's group, who happened to be meeting, suffered the most heavy casualties. However, they came and left just as quickly. As soon as they were stunned, Lou Jingzhi's sword-holding hand was trembling, and his expression was as if
Some were at a loss. Only Liu Xigua, after a moment, put away the even entertaining punching gesture, and after standing quietly for a while, his eyes changed, and he laughed softly.
"Haha...hahahahahahahaha..."
She had no intention of chasing after the Qi family from the beginning. At this moment, she put the back of her hand lightly against her lips and looked at Ning Yi with an uncontrollable smile. Then she turned her eyes away. It was probably Ning Yi's last "bloody hand massacre" that made her laugh.
Her laughter continued, but it didn't seem rude, like mountain flowers and silver bells. It spread through the dark and quiet long street.
Ning Yi covered his forehead, then shook his head and laughed: "Hehe...hehe..."
Over there, Lou Jingzhi looked at the laughing man and woman, and his face became a little ugly. When Jiawei came over and asked him what to do next, he didn't know what to do for a while. The girl opposite smiled slightly.
She leaned down and raised her head again, with a thick gauze covering her face. After a moment, she said: "Let's go." She walked towards the opposite wall, pulled out the giant blade with both hands, and dragged it until it was damaged.
In front of the shop, she grabbed a piece of felt cloth and wrapped the Naha sword. She carried it behind her back. During the whole process, the girl did not look at Lou Jing again. Ning Yi walked back with her, from a distance, getting
The information soldiers have already come this way.
The firelight passed by the street entrance, and the voices of people were noisy. After a while, it dimmed again. The street Ning Yi and Liu Xigua were walking on was remote. The two of them walked not fast. The girl was silent for a while, and then she spoke again, and her voice said
Somewhat heavy.
"...My family and Uncle Qi were originally family friends. Although we are not as close as Uncle Fang, there is always a tacit friendship between the rivers and lakes. I thought this friendship would be passed down from generation to generation, but I didn't expect it to change.
It ended up like this. Originally, they were just people in the charlatan. They fought and fought, but in the end, they only said that they couldn't help themselves..."
The night was already deep, and the girl's face was hidden behind a gauze scarf, so her expression could not be seen. However, her words were low, and she was talking to herself more than talking to herself. Ning Yi walked aside without answering, and there was a small stone bridge in front of her.
, the grass, flowers and trees beside the bridge were all silent in the darkness. A faint light shone from a small yard on the other side of the river, and the awning boat was swaying gently under the bridge.
The nature of the relationship between the two now is actually more of a host than a friend. After the girl said this, she probably felt that she shouldn't say too much, so she stopped talking. After a while, she gently said "Huh".
Suddenly raising his hand to cover his mouth, Ning Yi turned his head: "What's wrong?"
She didn't speak. She just waved to Ning Yi and ran forward quickly. She stopped by the railing of the stone bridge and leaned her upper body slightly. It seemed that she was about to vomit, but then she just coughed twice.
Ning Yi saw the figure swaying a few times, then leaning forward under the bridge.
The girl now carried a heavy knife on her back and leaned down. She couldn't stop the castration, but she also slowly leaned forward. Her hands had already dropped, and then her feet suddenly left the ground. Her lower abdomen was pressed against the railing, and the seesaw
It seemed interesting from a distance. Ning Yi saw that she had begun to faint, and probably still retained a trace of consciousness. She waved her hands, but finally she became top-heavy and fell towards the river under the bridge.
The girl just fell out of the railing, and Ning Yi had already rushed over. He reached out and grabbed the cloth strip tied with the giant blade. The girl's body was hanging underneath. After shaking like this for a few times, the cloth strip didn't seem to be very strong.
, it was about to be broken when he saw it, the girl below moved slightly, and then, a strong force took the person with a knife. Ning Yi let go of his hand, and the girl's body suddenly flew up in the air.
With two "wow" and "boom" sounds, the girl's figure flew several times on the water, kicked the giant blade that was freed from the restraints, and threw her body towards the shore. The giant blade fell into the water and splashed.
There were high splashes of water, and there was a small piece of grass beside the embankment on the other side of the river. The girl's body fell on the grass, rolled twice and hit the river embankment. She swayed dazedly for a few times, and supported her body with one hand.
He stood up and spat out a mouthful of blood.
After vomiting the blood, the girl seemed to start to wake up. She lay down for a while, tore off the blood-stained gauze, moved back, sat down against the river bank, took a few deep breaths, and then bent her legs.
He stretched out his arms and hugged her, huddled in the darkness beside the bridge.
No matter how high her martial arts skills are, they are still limited after all. Ning Yi doesn't know anything about Qi Yuankang, but thinking that the girl in front of him is thinking about the friendship in the past, and feels that he has to take action to settle the matter and lead his troops to kill Qi Yuankang, I'm afraid it's still
Following the rules of the arena, she tried her best to fight alone, sending the opponent on his way, and then faced off against the Qi family's killers just now. She held her breath to comply with the rules of the arena, but at this point, her internal injuries still couldn't be suppressed.
.
Internal Kung Fu is only practiced in one breath. At this time, internal injuries accumulated and vomited blood, indicating that the injury was serious. Ning Yi walked around the bridge and jumped off the embankment. The girl glanced at him and chuckled: "Blood
Is Tu Ning Liheng my subordinate? I am Liu Dabiao, the tyrant... Please give me more advice."
"It's easy to talk about." Ning Yi said, sat down next to him, and then added in a low voice, "I have admired you for a long time."
"Ha, it's time to look up to you for a long time... That's my dad... I'm Ba Dao Liu Xigua..." She said softly. After thinking about it, "What if someone hears someone cut a watermelon with a Ba Dao? Others will laugh if they hear it.
In the future, some people will call me Liu Dabiao, the watermelon knife, Liu Xigua, the watermelon knife, and maybe Liu Donggua, the watermelon knife. When I was a child, my name was Xigua. If someone opposed me, I would call me Liu Donggua. Liu Donggua, Liu Donggua..."
Probably she breathed a sigh of relief and temporarily let go of the pressure on her shoulders. The girl spoke softly, recalling the past and teasing herself. Ning Yi looked at the river flowing in front of him and said: "There is also Liu Pumpkin... If called Liu
Pumpkin, everyone has to think about what it is. But as long as there are more people killing it, no matter what the sword or melon is called, people will not laugh. Although I am called the Bloody Hand Human Slaughterer, I don’t have any martial arts skills.
, no matter how loud the name is, people may not be afraid of it.”
"There's nothing loud about the bloody hand massacre." The girl laughed, and then looked at him. "However, saying that you have no martial arts skills is probably misguided. Although you called me such an unpleasant nickname, I
The famous Ba Dao Liu Xigua thinks that one day you will be famous all over the world."
"I wish you good luck with watermelon."
"Well... Watermelon Jiyan..." She nodded, and then repeated Ning Yi's words. She gradually laughed, suppressing her voice. She even laughed so much that she hammered the grass twice with her fist for a long time.
. couldn't help coughing, and then adjusted his breathing: "Actually, I originally wanted to make trouble for Li Tianyou tonight, but I was injured first, and then there was a fight to be fought, so there was no way to do it. Now.
You also kill one of them, and let’s just let this matter go, okay?”
"Well, I didn't even think about what to do. It's better not to be aggressive."
"Aggressive... ha." Liu Xigua smiled, "It's nothing aggressive. At the beginning, Uncle Fang and Daddy planned the uprising, and people like Aunt Baihua and Uncle Seven also came over from time to time. I practiced martial arts every day.
I helped my father handle things in the village and gave me advice. When they asked me what my big ambitions were in the future, I said that I would be a female emperor in the future and take care of many, many people. At that time, we all agreed that if the rebellion really succeeded,
Just make me a female emperor, and I can take charge of anything I see."
The girl usually treats others, although there are times when she pretends to be heroic, but she is paranoid and cold inside, somewhat similar to the image of the so-called three-no girl in later generations. Ning Yi thought about the scene when she was 11 or 12 years old and was dictating various things in the village.
She couldn't help but laugh. As for the female emperor, it's easy to understand. With her current position in front of Fang La, if the rebellion can succeed, Ba Daoying will control one county and one county, and let her be the female emperor or something.
It's not a big deal either.
"Li Tianyou, relying on his brother's prestige, thought that what I said was false, and always stretched out his hands to test. He always thought that the intrigues between those people could be brought before me, and he always thought that I was just like the others.
.If it hadn’t been for Uncle Qi’s incident, everyone around him would have died tonight, but in the end... with Li Tianrun still around, I still couldn’t kill him, so... let’s forget it..."
At the end of her words, there was still a hint of sarcasm in her words. Li Tianyou tried various means to provoke him, thinking that tonight's matter was still within limits, but he didn't know that it was actually beyond the tolerance of the girl in front of him, but even though the girl was in many things,
She can be unreasonable, but she is still a member of this world after all. There are many things that she cannot do according to her heart. It was probably after she thought of this that she said these words in a lukewarm tone.
"Actually, I'm no different. I'm in the world, fighting intrigues... However, I think I'm very powerful, and I'm very good at taking care of things around me. The people in Ba Dao camp live a better life than them, and people who live a good life
, more than other places. For five hundred years, many emperors have been changed. In fact, the difference is just a little bit better and a little bit worse. What you people talk about all day long is useless... Ning Liheng
, you say yes?”
Ning Yi nodded: "Well, it's just a little better, a little worse, a little better, a little worse."
Seeing him nodding, Liu Xigua laughed contentedly: "No matter how good the emperor is, he can only care about the hundred years he is alive. I heard that those emperors are thinking about their family's hundreds of years of foundation. In fact, if the son is too stupid, the world will be bad.
It’s amazing. When I see people around me living well, I feel happy. Sometimes I feel like a shepherdess. I feel happy when the sheep in the sheepfold are fat. If it gets sick, I
I will cry out of anxiety. I raised them when I was a child. As for after my death, that is their business. If you want to live a good life, you have to earn your own life. I just can't stand that they live too hard, so I
It's just for fun, it's not really for them. It's just that I can't stand it..."
Ning Yi listened to these words: "This is a great hero." In fact, he knew early on that the girl's pattern was not big. She spent the whole day studying methods of intrigue, exploring human nature, and discussing with Ning Yi how to manage a village.
She was complacent about using some steamed buns and rice to inspire resistance in others, but what she really cared about was this village and the situation around her own village. She couldn't bear to see that other people's lives were too bad and inhuman, so
Only then did he stand up to do something. At least in Ning Yi's view, this mood seemed more sincere.
"I'm not a great hero. No one around me cries, so I feel at ease." The girl shook her head and was silent for a long time. "Originally, everyone started to rebel in order to live a better life and make the world more fair.
But I don’t know why. Now, everyone has become different. In the past, those who were officials robbed their things. Now they not only rob officials, but also rob everyone’s things. They beat themselves up, even if Uncle Fang really
What's the difference between the Yongle Dynasty and the Wu Dynasty? I was able to eat before, so what does this incident have to do with me? A hundred years later, there will always be people who rebel... But I don't care
Not so much. If Uncle Fang is in trouble, I can be my empress and take charge of my village. The people around the village can also live a better life. This is the best result for thousands of years.
...Ning Liheng, you read it, it has been the same for thousands of years, there will be no better results, right?"
Ning Yi nodded: "It's actually very good."
Liu Xigua laughed: "It's already very good, but that means it's not good enough. Then please make it clear."
The stars were falling and the river was sobbing. The two of them were sitting by the small river. From the chat just now, Ning Yi felt a little funny and shook his head: "It's... almost the best. It's quite cool to be a shepherd."
OK."
"You read people and talk about the unity of the world and the world. You think about it all day long. Just treat it as casual chat and talk about it..."
"Heaven and earth are unified." Ning Yi laughed, "How can there be such a thing? It's just like what you said. It's just the difference between better and worse. Thousands of years ago, among a hundred people, ninety people were slaves.
Ten people enjoy happiness. Along the way, eighty-nine people are farmers and eleven people enjoy happiness. This is the progress of the world. The so-called Great Harmony means that a hundred people enjoy happiness. However, even in the worst time,
Ten people will enjoy happiness, so even in the best of times, there will definitely be ten people who will suffer..."
"What about us now?"
"For example, thirty people outside enjoy happiness, and forty people in Ba Dao camp enjoy happiness. Anyone who allows forty people to enjoy happiness outside is a good emperor, and one who only allows thirty people to enjoy happiness is a coward. From this point of view, hundreds of people enjoy happiness.
There is a difference between 30% fairness and 40% fairness."
The girl smiled and said: "It takes fifty steps to laugh at a hundred steps."
"Things in this world are just a matter of 50 steps and a hundred steps. If it can be a little better, it will be good. Those who say that what you do cannot make the world harmonious, so do nothing..." Ning Yi sighed,
"They're all bugs."
The girl was silent for a long time: "Ning Liheng, do you have something in mind?" Then she laughed and said, "You have been thinking about the unity of heaven and earth all your life. You have also thought about it, yes."
"No, but there is indeed a possibility..."
"What?"
"What will happen if there are two Liu Dabiao in Ba Dao Camp?"
"Um?"
"Two of you, whoever makes the people in the village live happier, whoever makes the people in the village live better, can be the leader of the village and let everyone choose."
"...I will win over her and then kill her..."
"What if everyone can be Liu Dabiao? If I want to be the leader of the village, I will come out and say that I can do it better than you. Now that I have done some things, everyone starts to believe me. Next, God
Manager Nan is also going to be the leader of the village, and he has done a lot of things... The three of us will let the people in the village choose..."
"The village is the inheritance of our ancestors. How can you make such a choice? If you do this, you will gather people to kill me, and I will also ask people to kill you. A group of old people who followed dad are here. Li Heng, you
Even if you want to be the leader of the village, you won't be able to do so."
After thinking about it as a proposition, the girl tilted her chin up and answered quite contentedly.
"But the law is equal and there is no superiority. We are all human beings. Why should you be the leader of the village? I can't be?"
"My father earned the stockade, and it's the same for everyone. It's also my family's property. You can't say there's no superiority. If my family is richer, they'll take what's mine."
"..." Ning Yi was a little speechless.
"You have nothing to say."
"There is no superiority or inferiority, everyone is the same. Now the village belongs to your family, not the people in the village. They gather together to live a better life, and the value they create... uh, in terms of production relations
Things are a bit complicated..." It was originally said casually, but now Ning Yi feels a little headache. Next, he has to talk about capital all night, "But... to put it simply, if you discount your stockade, you are the big one.
Rich man, next, all that is left is for everyone to work together and share the money earned equally. You are the leader of the village, so you can share more. Now you are a good watermelon. If you have a conscience, 4% of the people in the village will
Ten percent justice, if you are a bad watermelon and only know how to be greedy, there will only be thirty percent justice left in the village."
Liu Xigua pursed her lips and smiled.
"If you want 50% fairness, then you have to let everyone have a say. Where will things be sold this year and how the money will be divided. You can't have the final say alone and have someone supervise you. In the end, everyone feels that the money should be divided.
If it's fair, then it's really fair. If everyone thinks it's unfair, you won't be the leader of the village next year."
"It's useless." The girl said, "Now I am Bad Watermelon. I have become the leader of the village. I said it was not good to choose the village before. The village belongs to my family. I have the final say. Anyone who refuses to accept it will be chased away.
Go away and kill me, and everything will be the same from now on. If I am a good watermelon, after being in power for a few years, and then stepping down, I will only be forty for a few years. Once a bad watermelon comes to power, I will be thirty for decades."
"So there must be supervision and separation of the three powers so that the power of the village owner is not so great. The supervision mechanism cannot only have one or two layers... The most important thing is to promote it to the people in the village and not promote anything else.
, just publicize that the law is equal and there is no superiority and inferiority, so that everyone can believe it from the bottom of their hearts. Why is the law equal and why there is no superiority and inferiority? Many people must study and write books one by one to make these concepts
It can be passed down from generation to generation, just like the current Confucian idea... Fairness and justice does not mean letting everyone choose, and then ignoring everything and being the boss... These fifty steps are not just about transferring power from top to bottom.
The points are divided, and the points are also divided, and there are responsibilities. If people only see power and no responsibility, they will not be able to reach it even if they take fifty steps..."
"... There is an advantage in reaching this 50% justice. If I want to rebel, I can bring many, many people together. My first thought is not to rebel, but to get everyone to choose me.
Emperor. In this way, even if a thousand years pass, no one will rebel again..."
The buzzing was like whispering in the ears. The night was already deep. At some point, he picked up the girl on his back and walked home in the darkness. Occasionally, he mentioned some random thoughts in his mouth. Ning Yi was right.
It is not obscure. Democracy and freedom can be seen all over the streets in later generations. He just sketched it briefly. Of course, there are some things that he himself can see and think of. Many people in later generations praise the sweetness of yearning for this fruit.
At that time, few people would say that from slavery to feudalism to the capitalist system, from the upper level of the pyramid, although the lower level can continue to share the power, what it needs most is that the lower level can carry more and more power.
More responsibilities. This consciousness of shouldering citizen responsibilities requires a complete set of theories to support it, so that people can truly believe that the country belongs to them, and also make people sincerely maintain these things. The Western system of later generations is based on a complete set of theories.
The theories about democracy and freedom, based on their movies, novels, books, and even the culture and spirit in everyone’s eyes are the root of everything.
After these words were spoken, the girl just lay on his back and listened. Her internal injuries were not fatal, but they were enough to cause great fatigue. Ning Yi also had bandages on his body at this time and was stained with blood.
The same embarrassment, at this time, it seems that they are like a pair of heroes and heroines who support each other. Ning Yi's voice was not loud and quiet. After all, he was talking casually, but when Xiliujie looked at him, Liu Xigua raised his head.
He nodded and said softly: "Ning Liheng, you want to kill the emperor."
Ning Yi was silent for a moment, and the girl said: "You want to kill... the emperor of Wu Dynasty, you want to kill the emperor of Yongle Dynasty, you want to kill the emperor of Ba Daoying... you want to kill all the emperors..."
"Just saying it casually."
Liu Xigua lay down and then stopped talking. When she arrived at the gate of Ba Dao Camp, she lay on Ning Yi's back and fell asleep deeply. He carried the girl on his back and went in. The soldiers of Ba Dao Camp he saw were a little nervous.
Surprised, after a while, Liu Tiannan also came out with someone. The group of people went all the way to Liu Xigua's bedroom. Ning Yi put her on the bed. At this time, the doctor had also come over. When Ning Yi wanted to leave, the girl caught her
his hands.
She opened her eyes and looked at the top of the bed. There was a strange light in her eyes, calm and firm.
"Ning Liheng, we will start doing it tomorrow."
The words were a bit ambiguous, but the determination contained in them dispelled any thoughts that everyone might have thought about this. The girl lay on the bed and said nothing else. As the old doctor from the medical center came over, Xiaochan also came after a while, and saw Ning Yi
I was so anxious that I almost cried.
But Ning Yi was fine after all. They waited in the yard outside for a while. After confirming that Liu Xigua's injury was stable, Ning Yi took Xiaochan away. After leaving the courtyard gate, Ning Yi looked back.
Look, his eyes are a little sharp, but also a little... compassionate.
Nothing is possible.
Ning Yi believes in the superiority of democracy. Even though he is a dictator himself, he even believes that there will be a state called socialism after capitalist society. When social materials are extremely developed and sufficient, fairness is further promoted.
If people are more involved in society, then it deserves the title of socialism.
But now, it's all just talk.
Nowadays, when Confucian laws are extremely powerful, people are used to doing things like pigs and cows, and are used to having "adults" to arrange everything. At this time, even if the idea of democracy develops, it will take hundreds of years of brainwashing to convince people, just like
Liu Dabiao said, the village belongs to her family, why do you choose the village leader? Ask 99% of the people in the world at this time, they will think like this. No matter how good a system is, it cannot survive without culture.
Yes, because people don’t believe it at all. They only want benefits but do not participate. This one hundred years does not include the conflict of interests and the rain of swords, guns and arrows during this period. Especially in the East, if you want to compete with Confucianism for status, you will receive a huge counterattack.
, which is unimaginable to everyone.
Fang La did not have such time, nor did Liu Dabiao, not even the Wu Dynasty. When someone goes in this direction with great piety, the harder they work, in the end it will only become two words: internal friction.
Liu Xigua is a very good girl. If possible, he hopes that she can have a good result, but there is no other way at the moment. Fang La's rebellion cannot be won. According to the history he knows, this rebellion is not even as good as
In later generations, Li Zicheng and the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom came so powerfully. A rebellion that had no chance of winning would only make the situation of the Wu Dynasty worse when it dragged on longer and longer. However, with the presence of figures like Qin Siyuan and Qian Xiwen, they had already done a good job
Ning Yi, who was preparing to go north, could only choose to let Fang La fall as soon as possible.
He didn't deliberately peddle and instigate such thoughts just now, but the intuition he had cultivated for a long time still led him to go in this direction. He just vaguely felt that saying this would be beneficial to him, but he didn't deliberately think about how big it would be.
The ideal result, but it ended up like this.
He didn't know how this matter would turn out in the end. Maybe when she woke up the next day, this smart woman would give up her unrealistic idea. But in any case, this matter itself would not bring him anything good.
Or it may have a bad result. Now that things have happened, let’s take a quick look at it.
The stars had fallen and the turmoil in the city had just stopped. The night of the seventh day of September in the ninth year of Wu Jinghan passed quietly in an atmosphere of mixed solemnity and tranquility. No one knew what was there in such a night and dream.
What a terrifying behemoth it will become in the end... (To be continued...)
