A knife in love

Chapter 2140
Hearing this, Murong Danyan laughed secretly, thinking that what the shopkeeper said was too romantic, Miao Zhu spoke with two foxes to expose the evil deeds of the magistrate, but he is not a worm in the magistrate's stomach, how could he even The magistrate knows everything he thinks?Mostly he guessed randomly, and he spit here and told me.But seeing how he hated the county magistrate so much, the officials and the people thought that this dog was very angry, and everyone wanted to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin.

When Murong Danyan was thinking about it, he only heard the shopkeeper continue to say: "When Miaozhu said this, he sighed, and then he continued, the abacus in the county magistrate's heart was crackling, but I didn't expect that although Uncle Ji took out a He was just an inconspicuous cricket, but he bit off one of the general's legs as soon as he fought against the brave and invincible general. At this moment, all the officials and wealthy households in the yamen hall were stunned. Some people felt very sad when they saw this. I was surprised and delighted, and thought to myself that the dog official Zhixian used the name of fighting crickets to extort money. In the past two months, he took a lot of money from us. Although we didn't even think about fighting crickets with him I can win, but seeing his arrogant appearance, I really hate it. As the saying goes, there is a slave like any master, and the brave and invincible general he raised is as cruel as his master. Unexpectedly In today's battle, I was bitten off by an unattractive cricket, which really made us feel bad.

"The brave and invincible general has never suffered such a big loss. It is really fierce. After breaking a leg, not only did it not retreat, but it went crazy and rushed towards the enemy. It's just that the cricket of Uncle Ji is not related to it. Fighting, but hiding in Tibet, taking advantage of the brave and invincible general's unpreparedness, he took a hard bite. Therefore, after fighting for a long time, the brave and invincible general not only failed to win, but was bitten with scars, and finally Another leg was bitten off."

When the shopkeeper said this, a happy expression appeared on his face, and he couldn't help dancing, as if he had become Uncle Ji's cricket, beating up the brave and invincible general of the county magistrate.

Murong Danyan listened to the shopkeeper's words, and thought to himself, clever, extremely clever!Unexpectedly, a cricket also knows the principle of defeating the strong with the weak and defeating the clumsy with ingenuity.When my father taught me swordsmanship, he once said that women are naturally weaker than men in strength, if they use their hands to attack and block, they will suffer a lot.However, although women lack strength, most of them are nimble, so they have to avoid the real situation and make use of the weak, instead of fighting head-on with the enemy, they should deal with the enemy skillfully in order to take advantage of it.Either after discovering the enemy's flaws, defeat the enemy with one blow, or knock him down until the enemy is out of breath and exhausted.This principle seems simple, but it is not easy to do it just right, and you have to work hard.This cricket naturally doesn't know these martial arts principles, but everything in the world has aura, and it is very possible that a cricket knows the skills of fighting and killing.It is said that the mantis boxing, eagle claw boxing, and tiger attacking eighteen falls in the world are all learned by martial arts masters from birds and beasts. It makes sense to think about it.

When Murong Danyan was thinking about it, he only heard the shopkeeper continue to say: "At the beginning, everyone was afraid of the magistrate's majesty, even though they saw the brave and invincible general was bitten off by a leg, they only dared to applaud in their stomachs, but their faces were full of shame. I was heartbroken, as if I was mourning my concubine, but later I saw Uncle Ji's cricket screaming on the body of the brave and invincible general, and finally bit off its other leg, and immediately screamed. These people usually After being oppressed and blackmailed by the magistrate, he was already suffering unspeakably. This good word contained tens of thousands of curses and curses. The magistrate saw that his brave and invincible general broke two legs. I couldn't move anymore, and my heart was extremely angry. After listening to the applause from the crowd, and some people looked at me with malicious intentions, showing a gloating smile, the magistrate slapped him down with a slap from shame, and actually put his brave and invincible The general and Uncle Ji's crickets were made into a meat paste together!"

Murong Danyan couldn't help yelling "Ah" when the shopkeeper said this, thinking that the greed and cunning of this dog official is already contemptible, and he didn't expect the gambling products to be so poor.When I was wandering in the rivers and lakes, I once heard people talking in private, saying that Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty liked to fight crickets, and when he had nothing to do in the palace, he often caught crickets with the eunuchs and guards to fight with each other.The eunuchs and guards dared not fight crickets with the emperor, they all fell to their knees in fright, refusing to mess around with the emperor.Emperor Xuanzong became annoyed, pointed at the crowd and yelled at them, and threatened that if they didn't find crickets to compete with him, they would be disobedient.Everyone was startled, thinking to themselves that disobedience and disobedience would be a serious crime of beheading and extermination, so everyone was stunned.

Later, these people thought about it again, resisting the decree is death, catch crickets and compete with the emperor, if the emperor is happy, maybe they can survive by luck.Thinking of this, the eunuchs and guards kowtowed to apologize, and then searched for crickets everywhere in the palace.Emperor Xuanzong was overjoyed, so he fought crickets with the eunuchs and guards in the palace.

At the beginning, everyone was trembling, fearing that the emperor's life would be lost if he offended the emperor.The eunuch who was the first to fight Emperor Huangzong with a cricket was even more frightened. He only hoped that his cricket would be bitten to death by Emperor Xuanzong's cricket.Unexpectedly, the cricket in Emperor Xuanzong's hand was raised by him for a few days, and it was far less vigorous than the cricket that the eunuch had just caught. Therefore, the cricket in Emperor Xuanzong's hand met misfortune as soon as they fought.Seeing this situation, the eunuch was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately, thinking that his life was in danger, but Emperor Xuanzong was not angry at all, and even discussed with the eunuch whether he could sell the cricket to him?The eunuch was frightened to death. Hearing what the emperor said, it was like a man who was about to drown grabbing a straw. He kowtowed more than a dozen times and said in a trembling voice, His Majesty the Emperor has taken a fancy to the cricket of the servant. Come with an air.The slaves are willing to offer crickets to His Majesty the Emperor, how dare His Majesty spend money to buy them?

After Emperor Xuanzong heard this, he shook his head again and again, and said to the eunuchs and others, we, the monarch and his ministers, must pay attention to the word fairness.If I took your crickets but didn't give you the money, wouldn't it be a robbery, what kind of holy son?Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing whether Xuanzong's words were true or not.It was only later that I saw that the emperor bought the cricket with one tael of silver and did not blame the eunuch, so I knew that the emperor was not angry.Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that their heads were finally saved.

Since then, Emperor Xuanzong has fought crickets with eunuchs and guards in the palace.At first it was just a fight, but later Emperor Xuanzong declared that he wanted to add some prizes, so he bet with everyone.Eunuchs and bodyguards are on duty in the palace every day, and they are extremely boring. They spend their free time gambling for fun.Therefore, Emperor Xuanzong openly set up a bet, and the eyes of the eunuchs and guards immediately lit up, and they were extremely happy.Later, not only eunuchs and guards fought crickets with the emperor, but even some court ladies also participated in it.
