Chapter 34 Making meritorious deeds and pacifying the world is not my ambition
When Master Liu Wenjing insisted on taking Yuwen Jianxue to visit the so-called master's home, Yuwen Jianxue was very reluctant.
It's not that Yu Wen Jianxue dislikes Wu Ma, it's just that she joined Liu Wenjing's disciples, firstly to appreciate his life-saving grace, and secondly to practice the art of awakening in order to avenge the bloody sea.
Now, she has been studying the art for six years, her skills have not yet been achieved, and her family feud has not yet been avenged. Her great enemy Yang Guang is still living happily in Jiangdu. She really wants to spend all her time practicing the art of enlightenment.
She didn't want to get involved in other matters except when Duke Tang raised his troops to fight against the enemy.
Moreover, now that he was about to visit this man, his master and Erlang of the Tang family said that he was an outsider and kept it secret. Yuwen Jianxue felt that he was more of a pretentious person, and she didn't bother to waste time on him.
Yuwen Jianxueyuan planned to hide in a corner and practice secretly for a day, but in the end he couldn't resist his teacher's orders, so he came to visit him too.
Master has said that now the spiritual world is just opening up, the enlightenment technique has not yet been established into a system, and all learning needs to be explored. It is also the time when hermit masters are emerging in large numbers. If you finally meet the masters, you should learn from each other and exchange more, and maybe you will gain something unexpected.
Of course, the most important purpose of this visit was to draw this person under the command of Duke Tang to help overthrow the Sui Dynasty.
The master said that if Yang Guang is defeated by Wu Sui, it will be over, and Yuwen Jianxue's blood feud will be avenged, so Jianxue, you must help the master.
The sky was clear, the wind was gentle, and while the master was in a good mood, Yuwen Jianxue argued with the master about whether the dancing horse was an expert hermit.
Yuwen Jianxue said: "I don't believe he is an expert at all. He himself says he is not."
Liu Wenjing said: "These are words of self-effacement, and you can understand them."
"If you are an expert, how come you were captured by Tian Deping and used as a sacrificial animal?"
"How can a girl speak so rudely?"
Liu Wenjing said:
"It's easy to hide from open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows, and experts may not always be vigilant. Today's scenery is endless, and tomorrow it's common to drink foot-washing water in the gutter——
Your master, am I smart enough? I wasn't tricked by Li Mi and put in jail."
"Then the master is not smart enough - I should find Li Mi to become my disciple."
"You... you are a traitor," Liu Wenjing waved her feather fan and pointed at Yuwen Jianxue, "I knew you had secret intentions, and I will expel you from the school sooner or later."
"You have to be willing," Yuwen Jianxue said, "Master, I want to make a bet with you - I bet that this dancing horse will definitely not agree to join Tang Gong's command."
"Why are you so sure?"
"How capable you are of doing so many things, not to mention that we, the awakened disciples, all rely on our true skills to make a living. Although this person is uneducated and has no skills, he still has some self-awareness.
He knew that Tang Gong invited him because he was interested in his status as an awakened disciple. In the future, on the battlefield, the awakening skills will be more dangerous and strange than on the battlefield. How could he dare to agree without real materials."
"Young people do too little good and are really arrogant."
Liu Wenjing smiled and said:
"Your master is not as good as you, but your ability to read people after all these years is still somewhat limited.
Don't look at Wu Ma. He is young and has an elegant appearance, but if you look at the few glances he inadvertently revealed in the secret room that day, he was calm and composed when he was still, and he was fierce and solemn when he moved. He occasionally had the aura of death. He was clearly a heap of dead people.
The person who came out was definitely not an ordinary hermit master——
Maybe he had personally experienced the dramatic changes in the world in the first year of Daye, and was lucky enough to survive."
"The more you talk, the more mysterious it becomes," Yuwen Jianxue said: "Master, stop thinking blindly and let's place a bet. Just be willing to admit defeat when the time comes."
"If I lose, I will teach you a few tricks that I will never learn."
"No, my disciple has already figured out your skills."
Yuwen Jianxue said with a smile: "You have a good character and have no hidden secrets. You have taught almost everything that needs to be taught, and you may not be able to figure out the rest. I suggest -
If you lose, don't disturb your disciple easily in the future. Let your disciple stay quietly and practice well. He will avenge you as soon as possible and then he can honor you.
If I lose, I will fight wherever you point me in the future, and I will go all out and never complain, okay?"
Liu Wenjing walked and thought, and suddenly said:
"No, I can accept this penalty if I lose. If you lose, not only will I hit my apprentice wherever I point, but you will also have to shout three times in public:
I, Yuwen Jianxue, am a big fool who is fake and aloof."
Yuwen Jianxue was stunned when she heard this,
"Master, you are too naive."
"Will it work? If it doesn't work, I will be defeated."
"You have to raise the stakes too - if you lose, I'll have to keep your flame-tipped spear at bay for two days."
"become."
"Once the words are spoken," Yuwen Jianxue took a long breath, "it's hard to catch up with the horse."
It's not that Yuwen Jianxue doesn't care about her image, it's just that she needs some quiet time to practice. What's more, she is really sure that the man will not agree.
The two walked while talking and laughing, and saw from a distance the courtyard where the dancing horse temporarily lived. Surrounded by green shade and reflected in the clear sky, it actually looked like a courtyard for an elite.
Yuwen Jianxue's expression immediately became solemn and returned to his previous cold appearance.
…
Of course Wu Ma knew the purpose of Liu Wenjing's visit to him.
For those who are interested in the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, participating in Jinyang’s military uprising to send off the founding fathers of the Tang Dynasty is a guaranteed profit and a huge profit. However, after seeing clearly that this is a fantasy version of the Sui Dynasty, the wheel of history may not necessarily be the same.
You can definitely get to Datang’s Station.
Wu Ma deliberately took advantage of Liu Wenjing's visit to see what was happening in the world right now, so that it would give people the illusion of almost magical transformation.
The dancing horse invited Liu Wenjing and Yuwen Jianxue into the main hall, and Qingxia obediently served tea.
After being polite, Liu Wenjing asked:
"The Lord Wu is very clever, but he keeps it hidden, but I have never heard about his life story, and I don't know where he came from or where he came from."
This is to find out the roots of the dancing horse.
In the era of dancing horses, this is an important part of political review.
Wuma Shi can't explain his origins, and if he told the truth, he would probably be regarded as a madman.
He had already thought of his words: "I came from a world that was about to be destroyed. I have lived in seclusion all year round, hiding in the old mountains. I studied on my own without a teacher. I only appeared here because I fell into the trap of a traitor."
After listening to this, Liu Wenjing thought to herself. She thought that this person obviously didn't want to reveal his family background, but the first sentence about the world about to be destroyed seemed to imply something.
Yuwen Jianxue only sneered after hearing this, clearly mocking this person for pretending to be sophisticated.
Liu Wenjing glared at her and got straight to the point.
"Please forgive Zhao Ren for speaking frankly. A man who lives between heaven and earth should work hard to make great achievements so that his life in this world will not be wasted. Nowadays, the emperor is violent and excessive, and heroes are rising up. No one without the talents of Han Gaozu and Emperor Guangwu can bring peace to the world.
Zhao Ren believed that he had a good vision, and Erlang of the Tang family was the man who wanted to be the best in the world. Now that the Duke of Tang was about to raise his army, Erlang could display his ambition. Since Lord Wu has such unparalleled abilities, why not join him, make great achievements, and acquire all the talents?
To bring prosperity to the world and bring peace to the world."
The dancing horse shook its head and said nothing.
Yuwen Jianxue had a cold expression on her face, but she blinked at Liu Wenjing.
Liu Wenjing coughed slightly, "Wujun feels that Duke Tang is rare in the world, and there is someone else who wants to win the title."
The dancing horse then shook its head.
Liu Wenjing said again: "Does that mean that Mr. Wu thinks that Erlang's talents are too high for me?"
Wu Ma smiled and said: "I just think that making achievements and establishing peace in the world is not my ambition."
"How about rescuing people in distress?" Liu Wenjing asked again: "Now that the world is in chaos and war, and the people are miserable, we have a unique knowledge and should take it as our own responsibility to save the common people. It is shameful to be independent and humble. Why do you think Wu Jun is doing this?"
Wu Ma said: "What Mr. Zhao Ren said before is right."
Liu Wenjing stroked her fan and said with a smile: "Wujun, is this your agreement?"
"I mean,"
Wu Ma said: "Zhao Ren said before that Erlang of the Tang family is a talented person who wants to dominate the world. This decision is not bad. And I predict that under the leadership of Erlang of the Tang family, the Jinyang rebel army will be invincible in every battle and usher in a new dynasty with stability.
The world. After Erlang succeeds to the throne, it will surely achieve an unprecedented prosperous dynasty. The time when the people of the Central Plains will have enough food, clothing, stability and enjoyment is not far away, so——
One more of me and one less of me will not hinder the salvation of the common people."
Wu Ma is not against joining Tang Gong's command, he just doesn't want to make a decision too hastily.
Liu Wenjing listened to the first few sentences and felt happy in her heart. However, the twist of the dance horse pulled him straight into the bottom of the valley.
"Master," Yu Wen Jianxue said at the right time: "Everyone has his own ambitions, so why force yourself. Mr. Wu Lang has his own difficulties, and we also need to understand each other. It's better to go back early."
It’s so hard to come to this place. Come back to me.
