The Mingyu of Prehistoric Times

Chapter 432: Burning Zou Culture

He saw Zou Wenhua coming with ferocious force. He was about to attack the enemy when he turned back to look at the pile of grain and hay. Then he came up with a plan in his mind to save the immediate emergency. He hurriedly dismounted, muttered something in his mouth, stood a piece of grass in the palm of his hand, and blew After taking a breath and shouting: "Change", the grass turned into a big man, with his head raised to the sky and his feet touching the ground. There is also a poem written like this:

The head is as big as a city gate, and the two eyes are like water tanks. w-W-w.7-K-aNKan.c-o-m.

The nostrils are like buckets and the front teeth are long.

The beard is like a bamboo shoot, and golden light spits out from the mouth.

Shout out to Ministry of Culture and fight with me.

Zou Wenhua was trying his best to rush over, when he suddenly saw a big man in the light, much older than himself, shouting: "That kid, walk slower, I'm coming." Zou Wenhua looked up, scared to death, secretly Thinking: 'My grandpa is here'

So he dragged a row of wood backwards, turned around and ran away. No matter what is good or bad, he just lowers his head and runs away. Yang Jian's incarnation then chased for a while and met Yuan Hong. Yang Jian shouted: "What a monster, how dare you be so rude?" He opened his three-pointed two-edged sword and went straight to Yuan Hong to kill him. Yuan Hong caught it with a stick, and the two of them fought back and forth.

Yang Jian released the roaring dog to bite him. Yuan Hong saw it and turned into a self-light and fled back to the camp. At this time, the princes in Mengjin heard that Yuan Hong had robbed Marshal Jiang's camp, and quickly mobilized the princes from the two towns in the north and south to come together to respond. The two armies fought together until dawn. Jiang Ziya summoned his disciples, found King Wu of Zhou, and collected the remaining defeated generals. At one count, he lost more than 200,000 soldiers. Thirty-four generals were lost in the tent; Longxuhu was beaten to death by Zou Wenhua with a stick of wood.

―Some sergeants saw the head of a dragon-bearded tiger hanging on Zou Wenhua's rafting wood, so they came to report it. Yu Ya felt very sad when he heard that Longxuhu had been killed in the rebellion. All the princes came to the big tent and greeted King Wu of Zhou. Yang Jian came to see Jiang Ziya and said: "The neighboring culture charged and killed him. It was the disciples who came like this to scare him away, and then we saved the food and grass."

Jiang Ziya said: "I lost my caution for a moment, so I suffered this catastrophe. This is just a matter of days." He was worried and heavy, and he sat in the middle of the army.

Besides, Yuan Hong returned to the camp after victory and wrote this chapter to go to Chaoge to win. Zou Wenhua defeated Zhou Bing, and Mengjin was filled with corpses of Zhou soldiers, so that the river stopped flowing. All the ministers congratulated King Zhou and said, "Since the conquest of Xiqi, there has never been such a great victory." King Zhou was very happy and indulged in enjoyment every day, not taking the Zhou soldiers seriously.

Besides, Yang Jian came to see Jiang Ziya and said, "Now we have to conquer the big Han Zou Wenhua first, and then we can defeat Yuan Hong's army." Ziya said that he followed Yang Jian and came up with an idea. Yang Jian received the general's order and went to Mengjin to inspect the road. He walked sixty miles and came to a place called Panlong Ridge.

The mountain bay loop here looks like a dragon. There is a wide road in the mountain that can be accessed from both ends. After Yang Jian saw the terrain, he felt extremely happy. He thought: "This is the right place to implement this strategy." So he hurried back to the camp to see Jiang Ziya and said: "Panlong Ridge is a place where we can implement our strategy."

Ziya was very happy after hearing this, and told Yang E in his ear: "This way... this way, this way, we can succeed."

Ziya also ordered Wu Ji and Nangong Shi to say: "You lead two thousand men and horses to ambush fire-starters near Panlong Ridge. Use bamboo tubes as leads, bury artillery, rockets and other things secretly, and use firewood on the top and bottom of the ridge." Thousands of charcoal igniting objects are arranged, and they can be set on fire just waiting for the arrival of the great Han Zou Wenhua."

The two generals were ordered to go and make arrangements. Besides, Zou Wenhua had made great achievements, and King Zhou sent people to give him robes, jade belts, gifts and other items as rewards. Zou Wenhua and Yuan Hong thanked King Zhou for his kindness and respectfully sent the angel back to Chaoge. Then, Yuan Hong said to Zou Wenhua, "Thanks to the emperor's favor to reward us, general, we should do our best to be loyal to the emperor to repay the emperor's great kindness. Only then can we become famous in the world."

Zou Wenhua said: "The young general will take advantage of Jiang Shang's unpreparedness tomorrow and lead his troops forward again to kill him without any trace, so that we can return to the court in triumph as soon as possible." Yuan Hong was filled with joy and ordered people to prepare a banquet to celebrate the victory. While the generals were talking, laughing and celebrating, a spy came to the Chinese army and reported: "Gather to the marshal: Jiang Ziya and King Wu of Zhou are peeking at our camp at the camp gate. I don't know what the reason is. Please let the marshal decide how to deal with it." Yuan Hong After listening to the spies' report, he immediately ordered Zou Wenhua: "You can sneak out of the camp, steal the retreat of Jiang Ziya and others, and then capture them. This is as easy as taking something from your pocket."

Zou Wenhua received the general's order and hurried out from the rear camp gate. He took long strides, dragged the row of wood backwards, and chased him out like flying clouds and lightning. He shouted: "Jiang Shang, don't run away, I will definitely kill him this time." You can't do it by holding on. You must dismount and die quickly to avoid causing trouble to me."

When Jiang Ziya and King Zhou Wu saw Zou Wenhua coming after them, they immediately turned their horses and fled toward the southwest. When Zou Wenhua saw Ziya and Wu Chao escaping into the wilderness, he felt relieved and hurriedly pursued them. Jiang Ziya turned around and said to Zou Wenhua: "General Zou, if you are willing to release our monarch and ministers so that we can return to our own land, and we will never dare to invade King Zhou's territory again, my monarch and ministers will definitely treat General Zou." You are grateful."

Zou Wenhua disagreed and said to Jiang Ziya: "If I miss the opportunity to capture you today, it will be difficult to find you again in the future." So he chased after you desperately and refused to relax at all. He chased forward for an hour. Jiang Ziya and King Wu of Zhou ran on horseback, but Zou Wenhua walked on foot. In addition, he chased very quickly, chasing fifty or sixty miles in one breath. By this time, Zou Wenhua felt weak and tired, and could no longer stand still. Chased.

Jiang Ziya turned around and saw Zou Wenhua refused to chase, so he turned his horse's head and shouted loudly: "Zou Wenhua, do you dare to come and fight me for a few rounds?" When Zou Wenhua heard this, he became furious and shouted: "What's wrong with me?" Dare you?" Turn around and continue chasing. Jiang Ziya reined in his mount, and then started running again. Seeing that he was about to reach Panlong Ridge, Ziya and King Wu's ministers turned into the mountain pass.

When Wu Ji and Nangong Shi saw Jiang Ziya and Zou Wenhua entering the mountain pass, they first gave way to King Wu and Ziya, and then blocked the road ahead with large trees and boulders. After Zou Wenhua turned into the mountain pass, Ziya and King Wu were missing. So he stopped and looked around hesitantly, but there was no trace of them.

When he was about to turn back and leave the mountain, he heard the sound of cannons on both sides, and the sound of killing was loud. The Zhou soldiers on the mountain used rolling logs and large rocks to block the mountain pass. The Zhou soldiers used rockets, artillery, dry firewood and other objects to throw down the mountain. I saw fires burning everywhere and thick smoke rising all over the valley. What does this fire look like? Like: Soaring flames and billowing smoke. After a while, the house collapsed and landslides occurred, and suddenly there was thunder and lightning. In a moment all the green trees turn red, and in an instant all the green mountains turn red. Even if you have an iron wall and say that the sea is vast and the river is wide, let him shine on the rocks and let the gold flow, and the dry springs will dry up when you meet him. The wind rides on the fire to show its majesty, and the fire rides on the wind to fight for its viciousness.

Don't talk about Zou Wenhua's flesh and blood body, even those with hair and horns all over the mountain will suffer disaster. When Zou Wenhua saw a fire burning behind him, blocking his retreat, he turned around and ran into the mountain. Under the foot of the mountain, artillery and mines broke out at the same time, and they looked up. It's pitiful that this tall man, a hero who could sail on land, was reduced to ashes in an instant.

Later generations have poems to lament him:

He performed great deeds during the night robbery of Zhou's camp, and showed off his heroism at the foot of the Mengjin River.

Jiang Gong's clever plan drove the Yang away and cremated the dragon with a gust of wind.

It is said that Yang Jian, Wu Ji, Nangong Shi and others saw that their neighbors had been burned to death, so they came back to see Jiang Ziya and reported the incident in detail. Jiang Ziya was very happy after hearing this, and said to Yang Jian: "It's just that the monster Yuan Hong has not been eliminated. What should we do?"

Yang Jian said: "This monster is a white ape who has attained enlightenment in Meishan. He has deep roots and magical powers. He is the most elf. We must wait for the opportunity and slowly find a way to get rid of him." Jiang Ziya said, "Let's wait for Dong Bohou to arrive. Only the princes from all walks of life can advance."

It is said that when Yuan Hong heard the report and knew that Zou Wenhua was burned to death, he felt depressed. When he was worrying alone, someone suddenly came to Yong and reported: "There is a Taoist outside the gate who came to ask for an audience." Yuan Hongchuan ordered to go and invite the Taoist to come in. meet. In a short time, the Taoist had arrived at the Chinese army's tent, saluted Yuan Hong and said, "Marshal, this poor Taoist is polite."

Yuan Hong said: "Master Taoist, where did you come from? Do you have any advice?" The Taoist said: "I also live in Meishan, not far from where the marshal lives. My surname is Zhu and my name is Zi. True. Now that I know that the Marshal is working for King Zhou and is here to help you, I wonder if the Marshal is willing to accept me?'

When Yuan Hong heard what the Taoist said, he was very happy and invited him to sit on the table. Zhu Zizhen gave in repeatedly and then sat down. Beside the tent were two generals, Yin Pobai and Lei Kai, who had joined the army. When they heard that the person coming was from Meishan again, they sighed and said, "This is Chang Hao and Wu Long again."

Yuan Hong ordered people to prepare a banquet to entertain Zhu Yuzhen. The next day, Zhu Zizhen held a sword in his hand, led his entourage outside the Zhou army camp, and invited Jiang Ziya by name to come and answer. Zhou Jun's military and political officials reported the matter. When Jiang Ziya heard that a Taoist came to speak, he hurriedly sent an order to the princes in the north and south to come out of the camp gate and line up. He also led all his disciples out of the camp gate and formed a formation.

Only then did he see a Taoist with disheveled hair walking across the street. How does he look? There is a poem that says:

The face is as black as paint and very strange, and the tin whiskers are cut neatly under the sea.

The long lips and big ears are really vicious, and the eyes are shining with broom eyebrows.

The silk ribbons of the soap clothes are floating, and the cold air soaks into the skin.

The Meishan pig monster was poked by Yang, and soon this body appeared in Zhouying.

Zhu Zizhen walked to the Zhou army's formation and saw Jiang Ziya arriving surrounded by his disciples. Jiang Ziya said: "Who are you, Taoist priest?" Zhu Zizhen said: "I am Zhu Zizhen, a cultivator of immortality and qi in Meishan." Jiang Ziya said: "You are restless and self-cultivating. Why are you here? You are seeking your own death."

Zhu Zizhen was not angry, but just laughed and said: "Chengtang has been passed down from generation to generation for dozens of generations. You have been blessed by the country for generations. You rebelled and invaded the pass for no reason. You said that you are in compliance with the destiny of heaven and the people. This is really nonsense." You are a disloyal and unfilial person. I am here today. You must dismount and surrender and return to your hometowns. This way, you can be spared. If you are not guilty, I will capture you and cut you into pieces. Wan Duan, it will be too late for you to regret it.”

Jiang Ziya cursed: "You ignorant village man, you are about to die, you don't know yet, you still have time to talk." Zhu Ziya came to attack Ziya with a sword. I saw Nan Bohou's deputy general Yu Zhong next to him - this man did not believe in Taoism - holding a wolf fang in his hand, his face was like a purple jujube, and three long strands of beard were fluttering on his chest.

He galloped out and shouted: "Let me take the credit for this achievement." Jiang Ziya saw Yu Zhong rushing out from the left, leading the way. Without talking to Zhu Zizhen, he raised his big stick and struck him on the head.

Zhu Zizhen waved the sword in his hand to greet Yu Zhong. The two of them were on horseback, one on foot, one wielding a stick, and the other wielding a sword. They came and went, fighting together. Before twenty rounds, Zhu Zizhen turned around and left. Yu Zhong chased after him. Jiang Ziya passed down the general's order: "Beat the war drums and shout for support." Yu Zhong chased Zhu Zizhen, less than a mile away. Zhu Zizhen was a monster. There was a sinister wind under his feet, and a cold mist enveloped him. Therefore, even though the horse is moving fast, it cannot catch up with him.

——Zhu Zizhen stood still, and Yu Zhong's writing was about to come closer. Zhu Zizhen turned around, opened his mouth, and sprayed out a ball of black mist. This black mist covered his body, revealing It turned out that Yu Zhong was bitten off in half in one bite, and Yu Zhong's body fell under the horse.

Zhu Zizhen changed his appearance again, turned around and ran back, shouting: "Jiang Ziya dares to compete with me?" Yang Jian stood beside Ziya and took out the demon mirror to see that Zhu Zizhen turned out to be a big pig. Yang Jian spurred his horse, brandished a three-pointed two-edged sword, and shouted from behind: "What a beast, come here slowly, I, Yang Jian, am here!"

As he said that, he raised his sword and looked at Zhu Zizhen to chop it off on top of his head. Zhu Zizhen waved the sword in his hand and hurried forward to greet him. The two of them, one on horseback and the other on foot, struck each other with swords raised. Within a few rounds, Zhu Zizhen got out, turned around and ran away again.

Yang Jian chased after him. Zhu Zizhen repeated his old trick, changed into his original shape, and ate Yang Jian in one bite. When Jiang Ziya saw that Yang Jian was eaten, he quickly ordered his troops to return to the camp. Zhu Zizhen returned to the camp after victory to see Yuan Hong.

When Yuan Hong heard about it, he was very happy and ordered a banquet to be held in honor of Zhu Zizhen to celebrate the victory. The two of them were drinking when suddenly a guard came to report: "A heroic man came to the gate to ask for an audience." Yuan Hong sent an order to invite him in. After a while, I saw a man with a face like white jade, a long beard, two horns on his head, and a hair crown. He walked to the tent and saluted.

Yuan Hong asked him where he was from. The man replied: "The young general's surname is Yang, his name is Xian, and his ancestral home is also from Meishan." - This is the change of the sheep spirit, using "sheep" as his surname. He is also one of the Seven Monsters of Meishan, and he is the same party as Yuan Hong. They were just afraid that others would find out, so they came one after another, using their names to hide their identity from others. Yuan Hong left Yang Xian in the army and drank together.

Yang Xian and Zhu Zizhen each boasted about how powerful they were and argued with each other endlessly. Yin Pobai thought to himself: "I'm afraid this person is another monster with Yuan Hong." Thinking of this, he and Lei Kai were speechless. The generals and officers in the camp were drinking. Just after drinking until about the second watch, they suddenly heard someone in Zhu Zizhen's stomach saying: "Master Zhu, do you know who I am?"

Zhu Zizhen was so frightened that he hurriedly asked: "Who are you and where are you?" Yang Jian replied in his belly: "I am Yang Jian, the apprentice of Zhenren Yuding in Jinxia Cave, Yuquan Mountain. Now I have reached your belly. "You are only a glutton for flesh and blood. You have eaten countless lives in Meishan. Today, you are full of evil. Watch me stir up your liver and intestines."

After saying that, Yang Jian stabbed Zhu Zizhen hard on the heart and liver with his hand. Zhu Zizhen shouted: "It hurts me to death" and said: "Great Immortal, please spare me, a little beast." Yang Jian said: "Do you want to Are you alive, or do you want to die?"

Zhu Zizhen said: "I hope the Immortal will show mercy. I don't know how much hard work I put in in Meishan. I picked up the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, and then I cultivated into a human being. Today I don't know how high the sky is, and I have offended Great Immortal, please forgive me, that is a favor for my rebirth."

Yang Jian said: "Since you want to survive, you should immediately reveal your true form and kneel down in Zhouying to plead guilty. I will spare you. Otherwise, if you don't listen to me, I will destroy your heart, liver, spleen, and five other organs." Remove all the hidden organs."

Zhu Zi was really helpless. He had nowhere to use his ability, so he had to beg for mercy. Yang Jian shouted: "If you don't do what I say, I will take action." Zhu Zizhen had no choice but to show his original shape, turned into a big pig, staggered out of the camp gate, where Yuan Hong scratched his head and ears anxiously, Yang Xian was so angry that he had nowhere to use his strength and nowhere to vent his anger.

I had to watch the big pig walk out. The pig spirit walked to the camp gate of Zhou camp and knelt on the ground. At this time, he caught up with Nangong Shi to patrol the camp. Just after the fourth watch, he came to the camp gate on patrol and saw a big pig crawling on the ground. Nangong Shi said: "This is a pig raised by the common people. Why did it come here? Wait until daybreak and ask the owner to take it back."

Yang Jian shouted in the pig's belly: "General Nangong Shi, go and report to Marshal Jiang that he knows this is the pig monster from Meishan. During the battle this morning, I got into his belly and caught it here. Please call Marshal." Come down to the camp and deal with it."

Only then did Nangong Shi understand what was going on. He couldn't help but be overjoyed when he found out that Yang San had changed and got into the pig monster's belly. He hurriedly ran into the camp, arrived at the Chinese army's outer tent, rang the cloud board, and asked the marshal to raise the tent to discuss important matters. The emissary reported it to Jiang Ziya, who hurriedly raised his account.

Nangong Shi went into the tent and reported to the marshal: "Yang Jian subdued the pig monsters in Meishan and captured them outside the camp gate. Please go and deal with the marshal." Ziya passed down the order and ordered the generals to light lanterns and torches and go outside the camp. go. After a while, a cannon sounded, and Ziya led all the princes to the camp gate. At first glance, it turned out to be a big pig, crawling on the ground.

Ziya asked: "You beast, why do you come here to behead yourself for no reason?" Yang Jian said in the pig's belly: "Please let the marshal issue an order to kill this monster to avoid further trouble."
