After that, behind Zhu Houzhao there was a little follower wiping his nose.

The little follower has no name, Zhu Houzhao calls her Zhu Xiaorong.

This name is disgusting enough to Fang Jifan for a long time!

Xiaorong is a very obedient person, wherever Zhu Houzhao goes, she will follow there.

The old follower, Liu Jin, had no choice but to hide in the distance. He always secretly took out a small piece of steamed cake from his sleeve, put it in his mouth and sipped it, then looked around, and then carefully stuffed it back. Go into your sleeve.

Occasionally looking at the girl who was always behind the former Crown Prince, he couldn't help but see jealousy in his eyes, but there was nothing he could do.

The health workers began to treat illnesses, began to build some simple fortifications, and at the same time began to distribute rations, although the rations were about to run out...

So, after discussing with Fang Jifan, Wang Shouren had no choice but to boldly walk back, taking some people with him to clear the road and protect the coming Xishan food team along the way.

At the breach of a certain river bank, the water is still flooding crazily.

A student who is quite familiar with river engineering made observations and made suggestions to Fang Jifan, so he decided to make up for a broken embankment. According to his speculation, if the hole can be repaired, the water in the county is very likely to retreat!

In this matter, Zhu Houzhao took the lead and personally led the people to start repairing the embankment.

This is an extremely difficult task, but Zhu Houzhao is not afraid of hardship. He will first hug Zhu Xiaorong, who has always followed him, to the branch of a tree, then rub his hands, carry a hoe, and lead the people to start moving countless boulders, and then move the boulders. Put it into a woven rattan basket, and throw a basket of big stones into the crevasse.

Many tired and haggard victims also began to help after a short hesitation.

With Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, although they didn't have enough to eat, they suddenly saw the hope of rebuilding their homeland!

As a result, hundreds of thousands of people are carrying earth and rocks on the embankment. The impact of the river is not small, and the current is turbulent. Zhu Xiaorong on the bed, for fear that she would sneak down the tree and accidentally fall into the water.

"This is His Royal Highness the Prince."

People are whispering, many people don't believe it, and the disaster victims even think that this group of uninvited guests is a group of rebels who have become their own kings!

The year before last, the Lingqiu County government had taken a few of these people and called themselves the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.

If such a prince was in normal times, he would have been tied up and sent to the official.

But now, everyone tacitly did not do so, and no one from this group of people who were most likely to be from the rebellious party raised any objections.

They think that His Royal Highness is not a bad person, and he is also a good farmer, but... what a pity! Some people murmured in a low voice, how can you do such things in such a good manner? This young man is so energetic. If a daughter is married to him, when the famine is over, with his body, he can rent and plant 50 mu of land.

Zhu Houzhao sometimes sat on the embankment with big eyes and looked into the distance, but what he was thinking about was still the group of bandits.

People love to be with this prince, if you rebel against a thief, you should rebel against a thief. Now that a disaster has hit everyone, everyone is in danger, and they are about to starve to death. Who cares if you are a rebel or not?

Naturally, Zhu Houzhao also heard all kinds of rumors about the king of the mountain.

In addition to fighting tigers, dozens of officers and soldiers could not get close. It is said that bow horses are also very good.

Since then, it is not only Lingqiu County that is vertical and horizontal, but it is also very famous in the Datong area.

"Oh, I really want to meet for a while."

Zhu Houzhao's eyes glowed with interest, and he had great enthusiasm for this group of thieves, and it could be said that he was sharpening his sword.

"Our Lingqiu County relies on the Datong Mansion, benefactor, think about it, there are frontier soldiers everywhere here, but this person can run across the Datong and Lingqiu areas, which shows how powerful this person is..."

On the third day, the food team finally arrived. Just for the sake of caution, the first batch of food shipped was only seven or eight carts!

As soon as the food arrived, the urgent need was temporarily relieved. Although there were still people dying in the past few days, people began to be full of hope after burying the dead and unable to hide their grief.

In the nearby villages, there would be a group of people led by the students who went to inquire about the surroundings every now and then. The breach was finally blocked, so that the water began to recede gradually, and the road became less difficult and became more and more difficult. Many people began to gather here. The county town was full of mud and countless collapsed houses. Some people began to return to their homes and began to clean up the completely destroyed remnants.

At this time, the rebels finally found their tracks. According to the people who came back, they were wandering around on horseback. They didn't approach, but... they looked like thieves.

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he cheered up immediately, and he ordered people to stay too far away from the camp without being accompanied by others... and no one was allowed to stay outside the earthen wall where they were stationed at night.

The reason why people eventually become the masters of all things in this world is because no matter what disaster they encounter, they can always recover quickly. Now, although there are still disaster victims here, people have begun to rebuild their homes.

At the beginning, it may be very hard, but slowly, when more and more disaster victims gathered here, people, led by the health workers, began to clean up the mud and search for everything that can be used for heating and eating

.

It's just... when night falls.

Suddenly, the wolfhound here began to bark wildly, and there was anxiety in the air.

The victims were trembling with fear behind the earthen wall.

Someone said: "Hu Kaishan is here, the tiger-fighting Hu Kaishan is here."

It seems that people have a great fear of this name.

Fang Jifan has been making fire for the past few days. This is something he can do. He can only be a cook, lying under the earthen stove every day, holding a bamboo pipe, and blowing wildly at the stove, making him feel like he is The body is already surrounded by smoke.

As soon as he heard that there might be an enemy attack, Fang Jifan, who was soundly asleep, rolled over and got up, and then shouted: "Call the manpower and prepare to meet the enemy."

The students have no fear, and they seem to have learned to disregard life and death after going through these days.

When they came, they brought bows and arrows, some of them also brought self-defense swords, and others had already prepared bamboo spears.

Shen Ao was feeling the pulse of someone, when he heard the sound of the gong, he picked up his bamboo spear and ran towards the earthen wall without saying a word.

His heart is about to jump out, is he... afraid of death?

Perhaps, but since he stepped here, he has become more and more aware that there are many things in this world that are more terrifying than death. Here, there are many of his patients. They have experienced great pain, and some of them have lost their lives. Some lost their parents, some lost their wives and children, they were struggling to survive, and finally, I gave them hope, so... I should protect them.

Unity of knowledge and action.

In my mind, at this moment, I seemed to think of the knowledge taught by Mr. Wang.

The way of a sage is in my heart, and benevolent government is to save people. Isn’t it the greatest benevolent government to let the people live?

And in order to defend the way of a saint in my heart, at this time, even if I am a scholar, I must take up arms and never let the thieves step in here.

His heart was beating wildly, and he gathered together with the students one by one. They saw the master, His Highness the Crown Prince, Mr. Wang, Mr. Tang, and one person after another, which made Shen Ao choked. I took a reassurance! He held the bamboo spear tightly, took a deep breath, and gritted his teeth, maybe... he would die, but it was also for the sake of the Tao in his heart.

The Tao is very simple, and it has never been a truth that is difficult to study. There is no such thing as hearing the Tao in the morning and dying in the evening; this is because the Tao is the easiest to find. Those scholars who are looking for the Tao in the sea of ​​​​books are wrong. , the Tao cannot be more obvious, but they spend their whole life to find it.

But it is easy to discover the Tao, and it is also easy to hide the way of the saints in your heart, but the most difficult thing is to practice them with the way of the saints in your heart.

Because... To practice these things, you may suffer a lot, you may encounter a river bursting its embankment, you may have to farm under the scorching sun, and you may even die like this night!

It is foolish to die in order to know what the way of a sage is!

And to die in order to defend the way of a sage is to be a gentleman!

Zhu Houzhao yelled in the dark night: "Liu Jin, Liu Jin, get over here, get over here quickly, take Zhu Xiaorong away, hide her, and don't allow her to step forward.

Zhu Houzhao was holding a long knife in his hand, he was full of energy, his eyes were like lightning, and he was so excited that he was about to cry.

Fang Jifan felt that he was going to pee in fright.

He tried his best to keep his composure and poked his head out from the earthen wall, surrounded by five disciples behind him. This made him feel relieved. Anyway, when danger came, he could face it together with his disciples. It's not a lucky thing.

Outside the earth wall, there are countless torches, and the torches gather to form a long dragon.

Behind them, the young and strong victims shouted: "What are you afraid of? Together with the benefactors, we will fight against the culprits."

"Yes, fight!"

One voice after another echoed in the darkness.

They may not know what the way of a sage is, but in fact, they also have a way in their hearts. This way... is nothing more than conscience. For this conscience and to repay their kindness, they still have the courage to face danger.

Da da da……

There was the sound of horseshoes outside.

Fang Jifan leaned against the earthen wall and listened attentively.

The torch like a long dragon is enough to prove that the thieves are powerful, but the sound of horseshoes does not seem to be noisy, as if there is only one person walking towards here on horseback.

Suddenly, the sound of hooves stopped, and someone jumped off the horse.

The opponent was already behind the earth wall, everyone held their breath, but in an instant, with a bang, it seemed that there was some force, and they hit the earth wall fiercely. This earth wall was not very familiar, and the strength of the opponent , obviously very large, the earth wall that was not sufficiently rammed, the first bean curd dregs project built by His Royal Highness, instantly... fell apart.

A huge black shadow appeared behind the earthen wall.

Just when everyone was ashamed.

The black shadow shouted: "May I ask where Fang Jifan is?"

"..." Why me?

Fang Jifan didn't quite understand, he was still a child.

Well, Fang Jifan felt that he couldn't admit it: "Here, what kind of thief, come here..."

The huge black shadow knelt down in an instant, but even if it knelt down, it was actually taller than many people standing: "See you benefactor!"

…………

Tired and paralyzed, the tiger is resting, everyone should rest earlier, good night!
