Chapter 50 Monkey King (for collection, for further reading)

In the 16th year of the Yongli calendar, July [-]th, the Hungry Ghost Festival.

summer.

Scorching sun.

Under two jujube trees, Lin Shou and Zhong Yunyi played against each other in the shadow of the leaves, Lin Shou played black, Zhong Yunyi played white.

"I always feel that Lin Daochang is a little different from before after he has traveled far."

Zhong Yunyi's Go skills are much higher than Lin Shou's, but he still plays chess with Lin Shou patiently, and deliberately loses a game to him from time to time.

Winning or losing is meaningless to Zhong Yunyi. Go is also called hand-talking, which is to understand the opponent's state of mind while playing chess and talk with chess pieces.

Lin Shou casually made a move, another bad move.

"Oh? What does Mr. Zhong think is different?"

Zhong Yunyi also slowly made a move, but this move turned Lin Shou's stinky move into a masterful move.

"Lin Daochang is more lax than before, or more arbitrary. In the past, Lin Daochang always frowned from time to time, and the expression on his face would suddenly become gloomy, but now there are no such expressions."

With a faint smile on Lin Shou's face, he took a sip from his teacup.

"Burst the fire away from the past, and today I will know who I am."

"Okay!" Zhong Yunyi clapped his hands and said in admiration, "It's a good day to know who I am. Daochang Lin's free and easy, Zhong admires."

Lin Shou smiled, and was noncommittal to this praise, but asked another matter: "How is the school opened by Mr. Zhong?"

Zhong Yunyi paused when he heard the words playing chess, and said with a wry smile on his face: "Oh, it rained in Dongsheng Province this spring, and how many crops were dried up, and how many people can let their children live?" Studying off the clock?"

"So far, only nine children have been accepted, and all of them are from wealthy families. As for the rest of the rich and noble families, they want to stuff their children into my school..."

"Hmph, how could Zhong do what they wished? They just wanted to borrow Zhong's reputation and become my protégé."

Lin Shou rubbed the orange he was holding in his hand. This guy grew fatter and fatter. He used to look like a cat, but now he is almost an orange ball.

"Mr. Zhong really needs to choose his students well. After all, Mr. Zhong, you are going to do big things. If you let your students ruin your reputation, it may not be troublesome in the future."

Hearing Lin Shou's words, Zhong Yunyi was thoughtful.

This kind of thing has not happened before. Throughout the ages, at the end of the dynasty, there were not a few people who wanted to save Tianqing.

In addition to the abilities of these characters themselves, the greater obstacle to doing this kind of thing that can turn the tide is those with vested interests.

They don't care whether you want to save the court or not, they only care about the interests of the three melons and two dates in their hands.

Once touched, they will be stalking like a mad dog. Maybe those who save the sky have no flaws themselves, but their relatives, friends, and former students may not necessarily be.

"What Daochang Lin said is that if you take history as a mirror, you can know the ups and downs. There are many people with ambitions like Zhong in the history books. We really need to pay attention to this aspect."

Zhong Yunyi took a sip of tea and said.

Lin Shou smiled, then stared at the thoughtful Zhong Yunyi in front of him, and then said: "Mr. Zhong knows that history is a mirror, so will these people in the history books have a good end?"

Zhong Yunyi was silent for a long time after hearing the words, and then with a free and easy smile on his face, he said: "Throughout the ages, there has been no change without bloodshed."

Lin Shou laughed very satisfied, and said in a slightly teasing tone: "I have prepared Mr. Zhong's coffin for you."

"That's not necessary, hahahaha!" Zhong Yunyi was not angry, and laughed like Lin Shou.

"Speaking of students, I have a student in the capital. He sent me news the day before yesterday that Suzhou Province is about to fall..."

Lin Shou raised his eyebrows, and was a little surprised to hear Zhong Yunyi's news. After all, he had only been to Jiangsu Province last month, and the situation at that time had not yet deteriorated to such an extent.

"Is the situation deteriorating so quickly? I have been to Suzhou Province a few days ago, and the imperial army even wanted to regain the lost land in those counties. How could it be that a month has passed and you are facing defeat?"

Zhong Yunyi sighed, and said again: "Master Lin Daochang of the Seven Sacred Army has heard about it. Originally, it was just seven rebels. The names of the leaders are somewhat similar, but in fact they are fighting on their own. The local army in Suzhou Province is still relatively weak." Can barely maintain balance."

"However, when the Seven Holy Army formed an alliance a month ago, the local army in Suzhou Province was not enough to support them. Not only did they lose the Wu'an County and Changlong County that they had just brought back, but even the several counties that they had previously controlled were lost."

"and……"

"And what?" Lin Shou asked.

"Furthermore, the Governor of Suzhou was killed by Qi Shengtian, the leader of the bandit of the Seven Saints Army, who called himself the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, and the provincial capital of Suzhou fell."

Zhong Yunyi crushed the teacup in his hand. No matter what he said, he was also a member of the Daqian court, and now he still had some hope for Daqian, so he naturally stood on the opposite side of the rebels.

"The Great Sage Equaling Heaven..." Lin Shou muttered these four words to himself.

He thought of what happened in the East China Sea Dragon Palace.

A Liang told him that a person came from the East China Sea Dragon Palace to ask for weapons, and if he guessed correctly, that person was Qi Shengtian.

Lin Shou met Qi Shengtian before, and the armor he wore left a deep impression on him.

He wears a purple and gold seven-star crown on his head, walks on cloud shoes on lotus root silk, and wears a golden armor with locks... With a golden stick in his hand, he also calls himself "The Great Sage Equaling Heaven".

Trouble in the Dragon Palace, rebellion... If Qi Shengtian was a monkey, then all this would have become so natural, and Lin Shou would not have doubts in his heart before.

"Monkey King Monkey King..." Lin Shou laughed softly as if he understood something, "Hehehe, the elements are complete."

Zhong Yunyi didn't understand why Lin Shou laughed, but he didn't feel that Lin Shou was laughing.

In his view, Lin Shou is a mysterious master detached from the world, who also cares about the people of Liming in his heart but does not go deep into the world.

"Does Daochang Lin still remember the 'myth' I said at the time?" Zhong Yunyi calmed down his anger, and then said slowly.

Immediately, Lin Shou became interested and said, "Of course Poor Dao remembers it. Later, he went to the Dao Zang and found a lot of relevant information."

"I suspect that the leader of the Seven Holy Army, Monkey King, has already embarked on the road of myth!" Zhong Yunyi said in a deep voice.

Lin Shou's pupils dilated slightly, and as expected, he secretly asked, "How did Mr. Zhong know that?"

"A few days ago, the descendants of Confucian saints sent a handbook of Confucian saints that had never been published. They said that it was left by Confucian saints to all Confucian and Taoist monks in the [Saint Master] realm. The former Confucian and Taoist monks of the third realm They've all seen it."

Lin Shou picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for himself and Zhong Yunyi, and asked plainly, "Only for the [Holy Master] to watch? Is there something in it that only Confucian and Taoist monks in the third realm can know?"

Zhong Yunyi nodded very cautiously, and said, "Have you ever heard of ascending the ranks of gods, Taoist Lin?"
