The Fairy Just Wants To Lie Down

Chapter 522 Going against the will of heaven

Da da da!

On the path in the mountains, hundreds of people rode on war horses, holding weapons, and braved the wind and rain.

From the armor on their bodies, they can be recognized as the imperial army, but each of them has a gray-white linen tied on their forehead, which is now a symbol of rebellion.

They were a group of peasants, armed with sickles, hammers, knives, guns and sticks. Some of them even used pots and pans at home as shields and pitchforks and hoes as weapons.

 In order to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, a piece of cloth will be wrapped around the forehead. The most common cloth for flat-headed people is gray-white linen.

 Also called the commoner army.

 Now the commoners have been defeated, but the world is full of commoners.

Xu He rebelled for six months, but could not save the world. It only added a fire to the pile of dry wood.

Horse hooves stirred up mud, and a team of hundreds of people stopped in an abandoned village. There were no bones on the ground, and only unmovable objects were left in the house. They were obviously fleeing the disaster.

“Let’s spend the night here. If we continue to get wet, I’m afraid I’ll catch the cold.”

 Several civilian army sergeants carefully carried Xu He into the house and placed him on the bed. Then remove the relatively dry windows, smash them and light a bonfire.

The temperature gradually rose, and the soldiers no longer shivered from the cold.

Xu He coughed a few times and slowly opened his eyes, his expression gloomy, as if he was not going to die soon.

 “Iron Bull.”

 “Master, Iron Bull is here.”

A strong man named Tieniu stepped forward. He was originally a blacksmith and one of the victims fleeing the famine. They were also the first group of people to follow the rebellion, and they could be regarded as Xu He's confidants.

"I lost." Xu He sighed softly, as if with boundless helplessness.

“Those straight-faced traitors! If they hadn’t been incited by those dog officials and took the initiative to open the city gate! There are also those sons-of-bitches. It’s clear that the master is for them, but they don’t want to rebel after getting a few dollars!”

 Iron Newton's face was red, he clenched his huge fists, and his anger squeezed the entire facial muscles in an extremely ferocious manner.

　　　“I am angry, I am angry!”

 The commoner army's rise was disorderly, but Xu He was not a fool. He has some innate knowledge since he was a child, and he can learn many things by himself without a teacher.

For example, the way he used his marksmanship to kill the officials and rebels that day, at first he just poked at random, but in just a few seconds it seemed that he had opened up the two channels of Ren and Du, and all the marksmanship skills were mastered by himself without a teacher.

Those seemingly hunky-backed imperial soldiers, almost none of them could withstand a single move from him.

It is precisely because of Xu He's bravery that the commoner army can be overwhelming. In this corrupt and chaotic world, the soldiers of the imperial court were rotten to the core. As long as Xu He charged into battle, there was almost no one who would not be defeated.

He can't kill a few by himself, but he can embolden the whole army.

 When fighting, courage sometimes comes into play.

Xu He was in high spirits at that time, but everything came to nothing in the blink of an eye.

Now lying on the bed with one breath, Xu He shook his head and showed a self-deprecating smile: "Don't blame them, if we can survive, who will rise up and rebel? But those masters don't want us to live?"

 “They just want to live, don’t blame them, don’t blame them…”

Xu He knew that ordinary people were only brave for a moment and would give up immediately if they faced any resistance.

Just like now, if the court just shouts "Only the heads of thieves" outside the city gate, the common people who are grateful to them will think of cutting off their own heads.

 Because he could not win the court.

When those killing machines fed by polished rice and white flour arrive, the so-called hundreds of thousands of civilian soldiers will be nothing more than loose sand that can be shattered at a touch.

 Very simple reason.

 “We still have a chance.”

Xu Henan sat up with difficulty, picked up a branch and drew a map on the ground.

"At first I was prepared to die. The peasant uprising cannot be called a rebellion. The most fundamental purpose of the uprising is that no one can survive and let the superiors know the situation below. Often the greater the damage caused, the less likely it is that the world will be saved. The bigger.”

 This was an idea that suddenly popped up in Xu He's mind, and it was also the main driver for him to take action at that time.

The peasant uprising does not bear the responsibility of changing the world. In essence, it is for destruction, to clean up those aristocratic families, and to make people eat.

 Throughout the dynasties, whether peasant uprisings succeeded or not, the living conditions of ordinary people would eventually improve. If there is no improvement, then the destruction will continue until the moment of improvement.

 Either the old dynasty is reformed or the new dynasty is established.

 A dynasty of three hundred years, a family of a thousand years.

 When Xu He saw the troops coming from all over the world, he discovered another thing.

 Now only a new dynasty can be established.

The army is not from the imperial court at all, but from aristocratic families.

“Since we are establishing a new dynasty, why not let me come? In this world, gentry are desirable, why not me, a commoner?”

Tieniu said: "But we only have a hundred people."

“An uprising takes advantage of the situation, and a rebellion depends on the people. Although I have a hundred people, I am better than the millions of people 10 days ago.”

Xu He swept away the decline, his eyes were bright and clear. In an instant, all the soldiers present were infected, and most of the fear in their hearts disappeared.

 This is how leaders sometimes determine victory or defeat.

 If even Xu He was in despair, it would be difficult for his followers to ignite their fighting spirit.

“Heroes in this world are for you and me. We should fight for the people of the world, establish peace for all ages, make all industries equal, and prevent people from being unkind and humble.”

 Xu He's energy and spirit seemed to be shining back, turning into flames and burning brightly. Vaguely he saw a general, a gray-haired veteran.

His name is Li Wuqu, and he should be the Wuqu star who came to this world.

 If you know it when you are born, you should establish peace for all ages.

 The civilian soldiers surrounding him were like moths flying toward the flames.

They all knelt down on one knee and said in unison: "All industries are equal, but unscrupulous people are base!"

 The next day, Xu He can mount his horse and fight.

He held up his gun and waved his arms, causing all the enemies to retreat.

He led a hundred people into the mountains and captured another county. He killed the county magistrate and the landlord as before, and divided the fields as before.

 What we want is nothing more than equality in all industries, and people are unscrupulous and humble.

Xu He hid in the mountains, and his heart was completely settled. He trained the civilian army with the martial arts training method in his dream, and from time to time he went out to rob the landowners' wealth.

　　It moves like thunder and goes like lightning.

　　The imperial court encircled and suppressed him several times, but to no avail.

 The following year, successive years of disasters came to an abrupt end, and the world finally got a good harvest.

However, the troubled times did not end. The emperor fell into the water and died, his relatives seized the throne, and the world was industrious.

The sound of horse hooves was heard continuously on the official roads, and countless troops were galloping towards the capital.

When Li Shengxian led five thousand elite soldiers to the capital, the bustling capital was already in flames, and the entire palace was on fire.

He did not rush in rashly, but stayed where he was and waited, because he was not allowed to enter the capital without the emperor's order.

 It wasn't until people from all parties gathered together and until news of the emperor's death came that they broke camp and entered the capital.

For a time, miserable screams resounded throughout the city, and King Qin's troops from all over the place burned, killed, and looted all the way, vowing to kill the regicide rebels.

 In the end, they did not find the royal bloodline.

Li Shengxian only saw corpses one after another. All the people in the capital who could inherit the throne were dead.

 He immediately issued the order:

 “Go and bring the fifth prince here quickly! Let him go to Beijing to inherit the throne.”

 The prince is away because of this situation.

The people Li Shengxian sent out were not the fastest. Among them, the army from the southwest pushed out a prince the next day.

 That night, Li Shengxian led a night attack, killing the prince and beheading thousands of enemies.

Li Shengxian can defeat a thousand cavalry by himself. He holds a big gun and roars so loudly that countless people fall off their horses and dare not engage the enemy.

 Finally, the fifth prince arrived.

The fifth prince, who was over fifty years old, actually bowed down and saluted Li Shengxian and said: "Today there is great chaos. Please help me, Lord Shengxian, to reorganize the world and wipe out the chaos and thieves."

"I would like to worship you as the prime minister, the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, and my son's emperor's advisor."

 The head of civil servants, the head of military officers, and the position of emperor's master.

 The fifth prince is obviously not an idle person. If it were someone else, he might have agreed. Conspiracy to usurp the throne is simple to say, but very few have succeeded in it throughout the ages.

 The one who laughs last is not necessarily the one with the greatest advantage, and there is no need to risk one’s wealth and life.

  Not all wealthy families want to be emperors. But Li Shengxian is different. Li Shengxian has been obsessed with conquering the world for his whole life. He is not doing it for power, he just wants to sit on it.

Li Shengxian pretended to be happy, knelt down on one knee and said, "I will live up to my mission."

As long as you have the emperor in your hands, you will have great righteousness and your chances of conquering the world will be greater in the future.

 Great justice is heaven.

 That year he was thirty-five years old, in the prime of life, with a hundred thousand soldiers and horses in his hands, and he was able to be called by the prince as Zhongfu's powerful minister.

 In the officialdom, Li Shengxian also had superb political skills, and almost single-handedly stabilized the turbulent situation. At least the apparently restless parties gradually calmed down.

However, things are changing. As the top of the pyramid, they are temporarily quiet, but they still cannot change the society that is rotten to the root.

 Uprising.

Like a prairie fire, the peasant uprising spread across the country seemingly overnight.

 Due to successive years of disasters, a large number of homesteaders sold their land to the gentry, and they became propertyless refugees after losing their land.

 And the proletarians are the most restless.

With tens of thousands of mobs, the world will fall.

 All the aristocratic families felt that the originally docile beasts had turned into wolves overnight, drooling and looking at them with bared teeth. No matter how you kill people to establish your authority this time, it will be useless.

 Li Shengxian immediately fell into a frenzy of counterinsurgency.

He suddenly discovered something. The chaos in the world was not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster. If you want to completely quell the continuous peasant uprisings, you must return the land to the people.

 How can there be any reason to spit out the benefits that can be eaten?

This world is in ruins and it is impossible to save it.

As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly, the commoner army appeared again, and then the rebels all over the world were called commoners.

A group of people rushed out of the mountain, just like the first shot of the uprising, and once again rushed to the front.

Wherever he passed, the corpses of wealthy gentry and wealthy families lay scattered across the fields, and their fields were all divided among the common people.

 His slogans were even cheered by countless people.

 “All industries are equal, and all people are unscrupulous.”

 Slogans should always be shouted loudly.

In just one year, the civilian army has occupied half of the country, and the east and west are separated from each other.

 Li Shengxian also met the legendary leader of the commoner army. He was not a saint or god, but a man with gray hair and somewhat familiar facial features.

 Xu He, a very ancient name.

 “Prime Minister, something looks familiar.”

“I think you look familiar.”

More than ten years later, they met again, and they seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they both understood what the other was thinking.

 He wants the world.

In these troubled times, there are two more gods who have descended to the earth. They are both civilized and martial arts.

Both Xu He and Li Shengxian are the pinnacles among mortals. If the people are compared to the soul, the soldiers are compared to the magic power. Both of them have limited magic power and can activate infinite power to fill the heaven and earth.

 If power is relative, then these two are the saints.

 Going back to their roots, their knowledge comes from the same person.

　　————————

 The black stone is on the left and the white stone is on the right.

 This game of chess has reached its climax.

The black and white armies faced each other, fighting each other, and the shouts of killing shook the heaven and earth. It was like two incompatible masses squeezing each other, like water and fire.

Beyond white and black, there are three supreme beings observing. Facing the mortals fighting like ants, Panhu and the old tree spirit stared attentively.

Stuck at a stalemate.

The commoner army and the aristocratic family are in a stalemate. The bigger and stronger the two are, the more territory they are fighting.

 At first, the commoner army was not just Xu He's group, most of them were people who borrowed their names, and then they carried out burning, killing and looting. Xu He's first enemies were these companions.

The same is true for Li Shengxian. His first enemy is actually the aristocratic family. Not everyone supports him, and a considerable number of people want to establish their own business.

 “Forty years old, 30 years of chaos, it’s time to end.”

Panhu made this judgment. This was not the limit for the two of them, but it was the limit for the world.

The world has been in chaos for decades, and the people are already exhausted and long for peace. But the two great gods have not finished fighting. They can still continue to fight. Maybe they will continue to fight like this until they die.

 Because their knowledge all comes from Li Changsheng.

The most difficult thing for people is to defeat themselves.

Panhu picked up the chess pieces again and said, "Fellow Taoist, at this point, I have to take out some of my own things."

 What Li Shengxian is using now is not his, but what he learned from Li Changsheng.

 As an innate creature, how can he understand the various rules of the human race? If he didn't learn to use it, he might not be able to survive a single round in the ordinary world without the intervention of extraordinary power.

"My own thing?" Li Yi finally became interested and asked, "This chessboard cannot allow you to directly cause natural disasters or turn Li Shengxian into a monk."

Panhu shook his head and said: "Everything in the world needs to be learned after all. My fellow Taoists are not just swallowing the truth, but I also have my own opinions."

 “What’s your opinion?”

“The yin and yang of the heaven and earth transform into Tai Chi. The sun has yin, the tai yin has yang, and people are also Tai Chi. A person cannot be completely positive, and darkness is inevitable after all. What Xu He wants is the extreme yang, pursuing an unattainable peaceful age.”

Panhu pointed at the chessboard. On the white side, Xu He seemed to be really planning to establish a Datong society and was running around desperately.

Little did he know that he was already standing on the edge of a cliff, and if he took a step forward, he would not find a unified world, but a bottomless abyss.

The Great Harmony of the world is like a loft in the sky. If you jump desperately, you will only fall to pieces.

"The existence of a thing requires a material foundation. It is wrong to pursue anything at the wrong time. Xu He keeps dividing the fields. The farmers are happy, but what about the people under him?"

 Li Yi took a look and said: "At least he still believes in the more work he gets, the more he gets, and he gets more land when he goes into battle to kill the enemy."

Xu He has a normal mind and can think. What he pursues is more like the modern equality of everyone. That is his slogan, all industries are equal and no one is unscrupulous.

“You’re saying that some people think they get less, and some people think they should be superior to others?”

Panhu nodded and said: "This is human nature. He said that everyone is equal. What if other people don't want to? Xu He is too ideal like you. He has become the biggest evil of the civilian army."

The chessboard changed dramatically, and a ball of Tai Chi loomed.

Ta!

Li Shengxian fell to the Yang Pole. Although the surroundings were dark, the aristocratic family was still overwhelming the people of the world, knocking the bones and sucking the marrow of every poor person. But he wanted to be the emperor, wanted to bring peace to the world, and wanted to reorganize the world.

 Hence, he is the anode and the common master of the world.

As for Xu He, he fell into the cathode.

 He divided the land among landlords, advocated equality for all, and regarded evil as hatred. Under his governance, the people's lives were still better than in the prosperous times a hundred years ago. At least they had something to eat.

But he wanted the world to be unified, he wanted people to be unscrupulous, and he wanted to break the exploitation and enslavement of people in a deformed society.

 Therefore, he is the Yin pole and the greatest thief in the world.

 Li Yi saw the change in the situation, picked up the white piece, and said: "Is this the biggest thief in the world? Haha. As the saying goes, heroes don't live long, and dogs bark at them for their good intentions."

"Let a thief be a thief. Isn't it true that a heavy heart is not heaven? Cultivation is essentially going against heaven."

Li Yi slightly understood that the difference between him and Wuxiang was that he acted against heaven. This defiance was not a thunder calamity, a specific will, or a specific goal.

 It’s about people’s hearts, people’s words, and heaven’s principles.

Ta!

 The white pieces fall into the cathode.

 Xu He lost, not because he couldn't win, but because he decided to lose.

　　also decided to win.

Just like Li Changsheng, he runs towards the impossible every time, regardless of his life. The world laughs at me, like Kua Fu dying of thirst every day. I laugh at the world for being ignorant.

　　Power, human words, and human hearts are all heaven.

Li Changsheng’s defiance was not caused by lightning, nor was his invincibility without reason. He went through hardships that ordinary people could not do and accomplished things that ordinary people could not achieve.

Cultivation is to go against heaven!
