Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

Don't you see that Meng Zhao dared to target even a heavenly person like Monk Huikong, and Zhou Wangqiao, a master, was also used as a bargaining chip for trading, the situation is very different.

Since he had no intention of pulling people, he didn't care about the origin of the guy who was being chased in the street. He just watched it as a curious anecdote and passed the time, just like the spectators watching the monkey show in the stands.

Meng Zhao didn't say anything, of course Lu Houer couldn't act on his own. Beitang Xing and Liu Laodao were now living under the control of Monk Huikong, without freedom, and even had no interest in watching the excitement.

When the two sides, one fleeing and the other chasing, passed the convoy like a whirlwind, Lu Houer came to Meng Zhao and roughly explained the whole story.

The man with great martial arts skills, carrying a human head in the street, was a famous swordsman from Liangzhou, Wu Dazhi, who was born with a top-notch cultivation. He came to Kaiming City half a month ago to make a living. There were also rumors that he planned to try his luck in the Divine Sword Hall. If he could pass the test, he might have a chance to join the Divine Sword Hall.

This man had a strange personality. He obviously had extraordinary sword skills, but he kept his real name and worked as a butcher in a restaurant, slaughtering sheep and fish, and part-time as a butcher. Normally, he behaved no different from ordinary people.

He also had a daughter, thirteen years old, who studied in a women's school in the city.

This women's school was not rare. Women studied not to take the imperial examinations, but to study to understand reason and open their minds. Often only people with a certain wealth could afford the tuition fees of the women's school, such as Meng Rong from his Meng family, who also went to the women's school.

However, the Meng family was the top noble family in Jizhou, and Meng Rong was very favored. Basically, they worked hard for three days and then dried their nets for two days. Meng Rong's mother was a noble lady of the Kong family. She was a family of poetry and books, and she could teach her daughter, so she didn't care about this aspect.

Let's go off topic. Wu Dazhi's daughter was studying in a girls' school. She was well behaved and didn't cause trouble. But in that girls' school, a girl's father accidentally saw Wu Dazhi's daughter and had evil intentions.

After investigating that Wu Dazhi was just a small figure, he sent someone to kidnap his daughter and insulted the little girl. The little girl couldn't get over it, so she left a letter to her father to explain the whole story, and then committed suicide.

This suicide broke Wu Dazhi down. After finding out the ins and outs of the matter, he showed his iconic martial arts of the clutch knife and slaughtered all the family members of the enemy. In particular, this person had a strong desire for revenge. In front of the enemy, he cut his daughter, who was his daughter's classmate, into pieces.

Finally, they tortured him beyond measure, cut off his head, wrapped it in cloth, and took it away, which led to the scene that Meng Zhao and others saw shortly after entering the city.

As for those chasing Wu Dazhi, it was a hunting team of masters from several forces in the city.

Meng Zhao shook his head, somewhat speechless,

"This is really asking for trouble. If Wu Dazhi had shown his martial arts earlier, I think that person would not have the courage to do such a bad thing. As a result, now his daughter has been harmed. Even if the other family can be killed, what's the use?"

People are dead, they are dead. Killing people to vent anger and revenge is just to vent the pain, regret, dissatisfaction and other emotions in one's heart, and there is no change in reality.

Meng Zhao didn't know how to describe Wu Dazhi. Being low-key is not a bad thing, and pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger is not a bad thing, but if you really think of yourself as a pig, you are a fool.

According to Meng Zhao's thinking, when doing things, you can't let people treat you as a soft persimmon, nor can you be arrogant and domineering, causing trouble, so you have to show your edge, but you must also learn to restrain your edge.

It is consistent with the idea of ​​moderation advocated by Confucianism. We must learn to change ourselves according to the changes in the environment.

When we should be tough, we must be tough, and when we should be weak, we must be weak, otherwise, there will be disasters.

Wu Dazhi did not understand this truth, so he hurt others and himself and regretted it for the rest of his life.

Meng Zhao later said the words of moderation, Lu Houer agreed repeatedly, and Monk Huikong was thoughtful.

As a strong man of heaven, he actually did not need to pay attention to the so-called interpersonal communication, because to be precise, he was no longer a human, but a heavenly man, and all kinds of things in the world could not interfere with people like him.

However, he thought of his life from this.

The suffering and injustice he suffered when he was young, the pleasure of revenge after defecting from the Nalanda Temple, the bitterness of being targeted after bloodbathing the rivers and lakes, the loss and pain of being betrayed by his disciples, and the despair between life and death, and even now he is above the world and looks down on the indifference of the world with cold eyes.

He was not moderate enough, so he took a wrong path for too long.

"However, why did his killing attract other people? Is there any rule?" Strictly speaking, although Wu Dazhi killed a whole family with cruel means, it was an act of revenge, which was a personal grudge and should not be interfered. It had nothing to do with those forces, but now they sent people to hunt them down. Aren't they afraid that if they let the people go, they will come back to seek revenge when their martial arts skills reach a higher level in the future? Such things are endless, and there are definitely many people or forces who have suffered from them. Over time, a customary rule of the rivers and lakes has been formed. Things like revenge can be managed, but there must be a reason to take action. For example, if you have a marriage relationship with the person being sought, a good friend relationship, etc., you will get a reward after saving the person. However, Wu Dazhi killed his enemy's entire family, leaving no one alive. According to the nature of other forces, they should turn a blind eye, let them fend for themselves, and wait for the government to deal with them. There is no need to rush to hunt them down.

Of course, many heroes with righteous minds often don't care so much and will definitely block it, but these people are obviously not heroes.

As far as Meng Zhao knew, the rules in Nan'an County were like this, and the same was true in Lingwu City.

"What the Dragon King said is that after the family is exterminated, this person needs to be handed over to the court forces to take care of him. Whether he is wanted or hunted down, there is a way to deal with it.

However, in Kaiming City, there are rules established by the old general Tan Changming. Those who see evil deeds like Wu Dazhi must act immediately to drive them away or capture and kill them. If they are slack, they will be attacked. If If you gain something, you will be rewarded, thereby enhancing the cohesion of local people.

In addition, many forces in Kaiming City are related to each other, and those who were chased out just now were mostly innate masters. In addition to following the rules of General Tan, they may also have selfish motives. "

Lu Houer's answer this time revealed two crucial messages.

First, Tan Changming's rules are very easy to use and are followed by many people. This means that he has considerable influence among the local forces in the city. They are different from the more superficial and lofty ones like Shen Knife Hall, but they are very practical.

Secondly, the forces in this city have a close relationship, and they often pull out the carrots and bring out the mud.

As for Wu Dazhi himself, according to what Lu Houer said, the ending will not be good. Unless he really worships the Divine Sword Hall and gets the protection of the Divine Sword Hall, the only way to leave Yanzhou is to leave Yanzhou.
