For the past few days, Lin Daiyu and her nephew were in a cold war.
A few days ago..,
Daiyu was overjoyed to reunite with Du'er,
But she was also shocked:
Du Er's arms, body, and even ears had hideous scars.
Those were sword wounds.
Within a few days, the Lin family uncle and nephew had a cold war,
They didn't speak,
It had already lasted for four to five days.
Li Qingqing asked Daiyu,
She only sighed, "Tell me,
What's there to say! "
Li Qingqing was very puzzled,
She could only start with Du'er and probe, "Sister Lin,
I'm very curious. You two have a good relationship,
Why don't you ask her, a girl,
How did you get injured? "
These days..,
Lin Daiyu actually didn't mention Du'er's injury.
Du'er said,
She came to the south to visit Daiyu.
Daiyu said, "Why should I ask? No matter what happened to her..,
Isn't she my friend then? Others are curious,
I don't, she doesn't say, I don't ask. I only hope that she is alive and well. "
But in private, she saw her cry for a few days.
Du'er was also very strange. She didn't mention anything about her experience. She only pestered Daiyu to read her new "Li Xianglan". She also curiously followed Li Qingqing and Daiyu to see the "rare southern scenery". She accompanied Daiyu to watch the plays that were performed some time ago.
However, within a few days, something broke this cold war.
Lin Ruoshan took a stack of South Xunnan tabloids and gave it to Daiyu. The page of this issue was full of articles attacking "Xiaoxiang gentleman".
Daiyu's face was cold and she did not look at it. "How many people call me a literary thief?"
Lin Ruoshan rubbed his nose. "Good niece, it's hard for you to take a look!"
Lin Daiyu's anger subsided a little. She took it and looked at it. Her anger just now rose in another form. She could not help but frown and sneer:
"What an idiot!"
It was May. The weather in the south was getting hotter by the day. A student was waiting at the door, wiping his sweat with his sleeve from time to time.
"High Scholar, your tabloid has arrived!" A short man with a small stature and a large bamboo basket on his back leaped over, sweating profusely as he held up a large piece of paper.
Ju Zi's eyes lit up and he snatched the paper over. He didn't care about the two palms that were soaked in sweat as he scanned the page.
"Found it!" When he saw a certain person's signature, he was so excited that he almost disregarded the dignity of a scholar and jumped up. He rolled up the tabloid and almost rushed into the mansion.
"Eh? High Scholar? High Scholar Lord! I haven't paid the fee yet! "
"Bang!" An ingot of silver was thrown over the peddler's head. He was so happy that he eagerly shouted, "Master is a kind person!" as he hurriedly rushed to the next shop to deliver the tabloids.
"'Only a few are allowed to be arrogant, while the masses are wild'. Xiaoxiang is so shameless! "
Many people in the study room had been waiting for a long time. When they saw this sentence, a hot-tempered person threw the paperweight and scolded, "Arrogant!"
"Arrogant student! He is indeed from the reform faction! "
"The younger generation will surpass us in time. Not bad." In an elegant courtyard, a middle aged man looked at the article and nodded his head in admiration.
A young man beside him also looked over and smiled, "Teacher.
This person seems to be a fellow student. I wonder where he is from? "
The middle aged man looked at him in surprise and then shook his head, "Qing Zhi, you have become an idiot from reading too much. Why don't you read some books and go out to make friends? Don't you watch dramas? "
The young man replied, "I am stupid and have no spare energy to study. Therefore, I don't pay attention to these things."
The middle aged man waved his hand, "How are you saying that you have no spare energy to study? You ah, I really don't know where you got this stupid attitude of looking down on all the heroes in the world. "
"I am ashamed — —"
"Alright, alright. The author of this article, whose real name is unknown, pretended to be Xiaoxiang Junzi. "
"Xiaoxiang Gentleman?" The young man revealed a thoughtful expression. "This student seems to have heard of it somewhere. He seems to be a novelist. "
"What if you haven't heard of him? It means that you've really become a pedantic person who doesn't pay attention to the outside world and only focuses on reading the books of the sages. Don't be my student anymore. Xiaoxiang was a gentleman and a strange person. 'Immortal Song', 'Fierce Maiden Temple', 'Willow Tree' and so on were all written by this person. "
The young man was startled. Indeed, he had some impression of it.
The middle-aged man stroked his long beard. "In the past, Xiaoxiang was a gentleman, but he never showed himself. This time, he actually wrote an article himself. No wonder everyone on the streets is talking about this debate. "
"What debate?"
The middle-aged man told him that ever since Xiao Xiang Junzi appeared, he had set off a wave of commotion.
Because of his' Willow Tree ',' Fierce Maiden Temple ',' Immortal Song 'and so on, he was not tolerated by the orthodox.
Novels were originally a lowly profession, and what this person wrote was often rebellious. Therefore, he was angrily criticized by high-ranking officials and noblemen as literary thieves.
It was just that Xiaoxiang Gentleman had never responded to these slanderous words before.
He only buried himself in writing his' lowly novels'.
"Then why is there a debate again this time?"
"I think it's probably because those orthodox old thieves who are full of sages and teachers derided him as a literary thief and regarded novels as the last stream. However, they didn't bully him to the extent of his profession, so he didn't bother to pay attention to them … This time, it's a peer who despises each other. They started to attack him from his pride. If he didn't respond, then he would be splashed with dirty water for no reason."
"Since he spent so much effort to write these good articles, then these articles, no matter how they are called lowly, are his painstaking efforts. A dog barking too much is annoying, not to mention a mangy dog. "
"You see, before he replied to the letter in the South Seeking Tabloid, he specially published a sentence: 'Everyone is arrogant, but everyone is arrogant.' What did he say? It's referring to those who attacked him. They can't write good articles themselves, and only know how to blindly follow the rules. Once someone tries to use something new and write a good article, they will gang up and attack him. Childish, arrogant and stupid. "
After saying that, the two looked at the official reply under 'Everyone is arrogant, but everyone is arrogant.' The official reply started with a story called 'Qi People Study Ancient Times'.
Daiyu flipped the page of the South Seeking Tabloid to Du 'er and pointed it out to her with a smile. When Du' er saw it, she was angry and amused. She gritted her teeth and shouted, "These things, what nonsense is this!"
In the tabloid, there were a few people who specialized in writing novels. They took Lin Daiyu's' Willow Tree ',' Immortal Song 'and changed it into a bullsh * t novel. They used the language of the Jin Dynasty to rewrite' Immortal Song 'and' Immortal Song '. They rewrote' Immortal Song 'into a novel about seeking immortality and seeking the Dao. They even made some conjectures and hypothesized that Liu Sanjie was a person who became immortal in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, so she had to use the language of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. This was the proper novel.
Looking at the bottom, it was clearly written: 'Good articles should be learned from the ancients.'
Every word and sentence had to be learned from the ancients.
The rest of the people who supported this person directly criticized Xiaoxiang for using the vernacular of the modern era to write an article so that the coachmen and soldiers could understand. They said that he was' corrupting the refined culture and willing to degrade himself. '
Du 'er was indignant. Daiyu smiled and said, "Look at this page."
This page started with Xiaoxiang's reply, 'Qi People Study Ancient Times'.
"Qi people like to learn ancient times. I heard that the ancients ate raw meat and drank blood. When they spoke, they only needed to say 'ah oh' to convey their feelings. He also killed a chicken and lay there to drink its blood and eat its feathers. After eating for a while, his ferocious wife came in and saw a ghost with a head full of blood and feathers lying on the ground. She screamed and raised her kitchen knife to chop it. Qi person was scared out of his wits. He wanted to call out his wife's name and ask her to stop. Suddenly, he remembered that the ancients only needed to say 'ah oh' to convey their feelings. He quickly stopped and called out 'ah oh' too.
His wife thought that he was possessed by the dead soul of the chicken and cut even faster. Thus, Qi person became a ghost.
When he reached the netherworld and saw the ancients, he scolded them, 'Why did you have to teach me' ah oh 'and cause me to die in the underworld?'
The ancients said, 'ah oh!' "
Madam was coming over to deliver snacks. She saw her master, Li Baiquan, holding a South Seeking South tabloid and laughed until her whole body shook. She slapped her thigh and shouted, "Xiaoxiang gentleman, what a wonderful person! What a mischievous ghost! "
"Master, what's wrong?"
Li Baiquan pulled her back, "Quick, quick, quick, go get a pen and paper. Master wants to help this mischievous ghost!"
Du 'er finished reading the tabloid with Daiyu and laughed for a while. He laughed until his whole body was weak. When he finally managed to hold it in, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Your hateful mouth, you've taught those fools outside a lesson!"
Daiyu said, "That may not be the case. Scholars despise each other, these people are the most stubborn and won't admit defeat. There are also those who grumble and grumble. Moreover, these people suddenly rushed forward, they must have come prepared and have a backup plan. Let's see in half a month. "
"Do you want me to help you?" Du 'er heard and quickly asked.
"No need. I alone am enough. Moreover, in the south, there are many like-minded people. "Daiyu looked at Du 'er and said slowly," Go and do your thing. "
Du 'er froze and looked at Daiyu in a panic.
Daiyu smiled bitterly, "I already knew."
Du 'er said that he came to the south to visit Daiyu but Daiyu knew that was not the case.
That day, Du 'er went to visit Lin Ruoshan, saying that he wanted to visit his elders.
Daiyu personally went to prepare tea. Her footsteps were always light. When she walked to the door, before the people inside the door noticed, she heard Du 'er say, "Mister Lin, the big leader asked me to bring you a letter and ask you to gather your fellow Daoists. They will come in a few days. "
"Alright. You don't have to rush to contact them, the journey is tiring. You are a girl after all, even a person made of iron would not be able to endure this rush. Moreover, swords have no eyes … look at you covered in wounds … I am your elder after all, and Daiyu is also your friend right? You don't have to rush to leave here, rest for a few days first. "
"Mister, there is no time to waste. The people of the south want to form an alliance with us to break this decadent world. Then, we have to hurry. My life is nothing. "
Lin Ruoshan sighed, "It must be hard for a little girl like you … I regret giving you the token back then …"
"Mister Lin! Don't say such things again. " Du 'er also sighed, "If not for your token, I would have died on the road of revenge. How could I have met leader Fang and joined them?"
Lin Ruoshan looked at her like a close elder, gently patting her head and smiled, "You girls … whether it is you or Yu 'er, you make me feel ashamed of my inferiority."
"Pa", the tea fell to the ground. With Daiyu's intelligence, what else did she not understand? She could not listen to it anymore, and hurriedly left.
This was the reason why she had a cold war with her uncle.
"Daiyu …" Du 'er called out, not knowing how to explain. After a while, she squeezed out a sentence, "I have no way to live. Marrying and having children is not a way to live. I … "
Lin Daiyu lightly patted her shoulder, "Go, no need to explain." She held back her tears, and tried to smile, "I know, we are all the same. You have your own path, you just have to remember, always remember, that you have a friend like me. "
They are all the same.
There is no way to find freedom in the world, then, people can only break the mountain and build their own path.
"Then, take care."
"Take care."
She did not cry, but Du 'er choked up, she suddenly raised the South Seeker Tabloid, "I will watch over you. That place is far, I can only get one issue every few months, but I will read it. "
Du 'er only came for a few days, and hurriedly left.
When Du 'er left, Xiaoxiang sat in front of the table, and wrote an article, "Debate on Literature", thinking: Then, my battle will officially begin.
