Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading - Chapter 56

“We won the war after fighting with Hu, everyone is so happy;

We have the ocean on the left, we have mountains on the right;

　　We are moving to Yandu which is Beijing now, but it is an empty city. Yandu has everything there after we moved;

　　All the people are so happy to live there, they want to live there forever. “

　　Chen Luo spread out the paper, stained ink on the brush, took a deep breath, and began to write the story in his mind.

　　The original story was set in the Ming Dynasty. Chen Luo wanted to make some changes to make it the background of Daxuan, but after thinking about it, he gave up this plan.

　　The story is very simple. The woman in the brothel and a heartless man, but because of her final grief and anger, it is unforgettable.

　　”Lady Du Angrily Sinks Her Treasure Chest”!

　　This story is taken from Feng Menglong’s “Stories Enlightening the World” in the Ming Dynasty. It tells the story of the famous prostitute Du Shiniang who redeemed herself from the good, pursued true love, and entrusted herself to the imperial student Li Jia. However, Li Jia was weak and selfish by nature. Although he was sincere towards Du Shiniang, he succumbed to etiquette and instigation made by the rich and young Sun Fu and finally betrayed Du Shiniang for a thousand taels of silver. Du Shiniang pretended to agree, opened the treasure chest in public during the official transaction, scolded the traitors and the heartless, and threw herself into the river with the treasure chest in her arms…

　　In the whole story, Du Shiniang forced the old procuress to agree to buy her own freedom, showing her wisdom; she privately offered half of her redemption funds to show her strategy; later, she wandered the world with Li Jia, letting Li Jia settle down with her family, showing that she had virtue; finally learned that she was truly betrayed, showed her treasure chest and threw himself into the river, showing her fierceness.

　　Such a resourceful, virtuous, and strong woman is naturally admirable.

　　An article “Lady Du Angrily Sinks Her Treasure Chest”, eloquently spilled thousands of words, Chen Luo seemed to see that beautiful and strong woman in the process of writing. A thousand taels of silver in Li Jia District sold her to others, but how could she know that the treasure chest in her arms was more than ten thousand gold. Very sad! Deplorable! Extremely angry!

　　It’s really true to those two sentences in the article –

　　”There is jade in the concubine, but there is no pearl in the eyes of a deplorable man!”

　　”The concubine lives up to the lord, and the lord concedes the ear of the concubine!”

　　Chen Luo wrote the last word, and in an instant, the paper on which this article was written was shining brightly, without wind, and a phantom of the river appeared on the page. Only to see that there was a bubble in the phantom of the river, and it seemed that there was something that was going to float up. After a while, a wooden box rose from the phantom of the river.

　　Then the phantom of the river water dissipated, the wooden box gradually solidified, and finally landed in front of Chen Luo.

　　At this time, in a teahouse outside the Earl’s Mansion, Song Tuizhi frowned slightly and snorted softly, “Huh?”

　　…

　　Chen Luo’s attention was all on the wooden box.

　　Could it be that the book spirit this time is this box?

　　Treasure chest?

　　Chen Luo’s heart moved, and he quickly opened the treasure chest. Suddenly, a red light shot out from the wooden box and hugged Chen Luo’s face directly. Chen Luo stretched out his hand and took off what was on his face. It turned out to be a fluffy bird with two thick black eyebrows and an angry expression on its face.

　　This…Angry Birds!

　　The bird was only the size of an apple and was firmly held by Chen Luo in the palm of his hand, and he even wanted to peck Chen Luo’s hand with the bird’s beak. Chen Luo remembered how Daizong merged with himself before, picked up the angry bird, and bumped it against his forehead, and instantly the angry bird turned into a beam of light and shot into Chen Luo’s mind, a message in Chen Luo’s brain emerged.

　　”Red Dust Magical Ability – Seven Emotions, Anger!”

　　Motivating this magical power, painless and tireless, the power of martial arts and martial arts is doubled. However, when using it, you will lose your mind, and the damage to your body will not be reduced.

　　”Good guy, did I unlock the state of anger?” Chen Luo hesitated, but since it was a normal expression, it meant that there were six other magical powers in the world.

　　Unexpectedly, if you travel to another world, you still need to collect cards!

　　…

　　”Xiao Ji!” Chen Luo shouted, the door of the study was pushed open, and Ji Zhong walked in.

　　”Master, are you calling me?”

　　Chen Luo nodded, and handed the manuscript of “Lady Du Angrily Sinks Her Treasure Chest” to Ji Zhong: “Thank you for your hard work, send it to Nan Yuanxi! “

　　”Young master has written a new story?” Ji Zhong had a happy expression on his face, took over the manuscript, and read it directly.

　　Sure enough, Ji “Daxuan #1 in Waiting for Updates” Zhong!

　　Chen Luo was not in a hurry, leaning on the chair, waiting for Ji Zhong’s feedback. ”

　　Ji Zhong looked at “Lady Du Angrily Sinks Her Treasure Chest”, his face slowly retracted with joy, and he frowned slightly. Gradually, anger appeared on his face, and the veins in his hands burst out. Suddenly, he slapped the manuscript on the table and shouted angrily: “Master, where are Li Jia and Sun Fu from? I’ll take their lives and pay homage to Du Shiniang!”

　　As expected!

　　Chen Luo waved his hand: “Calm down, calm down, this is a story, it’s fake! Look at this dynasty, this place name, it’s all fiction!”

　　Ji Zhong glanced suspiciously at the manuscript again, and after a while, he looked at Chen Luo with a sad face: “Young Master, why did you write such an infuriating story!”

　　”Does it look good?”

　　”So lovely!”

　　Chen Luo thought for a while, but brought the manuscript again and added a few strokes to it.

　　”This story is purely fictional, and any similarity is purely coincidental.”

　　After writing, he handed it to Ji Zhong: “Send it over!”

　　…

　　It was said that the sky was already dark, and Ji Zhong embraced the manuscript and had just walked out of the gate of the Earl’s Mansion when suddenly there was a “Ding” behind him!

　　At that moment, it was as if time had stopped. The Earl’s Mansion behind him disappeared, the pedestrians and horses on the road disappeared, and even the Qing’an Square disappeared. Ji Zhong seemed to have walked into a void and turned into a puppet, unable to move even a single thought.

　　The black-faced scholar Song Tuizhi appeared out of thin air and slowly approached Ji Zhong.

　　With a flick of Song Tuizhi’s finger, the manuscript of “Lady Du Angrily Sinks Her Treasure Chest” flew out of Ji Zhong’s arms and landed on Song Tuizhi’s hand. Song Tuizhi looked at it carefully, and after a long time, he let out a long sigh of anger in his chest.

　　”What a fictitious story! The characters are lifelike, the details are intricately linked, and there are thousands of twists and turns. It is full of mundane things, but full of people’s hearts!” Song Tuizhi sighed, and then stretched out his right hand, only to see it in his palm, A colorful aura the size of a soybean slowly emerged.

　　”Is this the qi of the fourth cultivation path? The teacher is right, this is the path for all beings!”

　　Then Song Tuizhi shook his palm, and the colorful red dust disappeared. Song Tuizhi looked at the manuscript in his hand again, and his face burst into anger.

　　”Prodigal thing, how can this original work be sent out like this? This should be a treasure of my Bamboo Forest line!” Song Tuizhi waved his hand, and suddenly several blank sheets of paper appeared out of thin air, and then waved his sleeves again, Yawen appeared on the white paper, it was “Lady Du Angrily Sinks Her Treasure Chest”.

　　”Great Confucian manuscript, that Nan Yuanxi is not at a loss!” Song Tuizhi put the manuscript he had just imitated Chen Luo’s notes back into Ji Zhong’s arms, carefully folded Chen Luo’s original work, and put it in his sleeve.

　　”I didn’t expect that the fourth road to the sky turned out to be such an interesting road! For the sake of this manuscript, this old man will consider you to have passed the test. As a senior brother, I’m keeping it for the younger junior brother, as it should be!” Song Tuizhi meditated, bypassing the “gentleman” knot in his heart, and then turned to leave. When his figure disappeared, the entire void space also dissipated.

　　Ji Zhong rolled his eyes and resumed his actions, but he didn’t care when he was in a daze just now and walked to the address left by Nan Yuanxi…

　　…

　　”Lady, a young man sent this, saying that it was for Duke Nan.” Xiao Hexiang’s maid Wan’er walked into the yard and handed Xiao Hexiang a book bag.

　　Xiao Hexiang is in her twenties, and although she is not a rare beauty, she is still considered a beauty in this town. The big round eyes and the slight baby fat look very cute.

　　”Oh? Maybe it was sent by Xianggong’s literary friend.” Xiao Hexiang took the book bag. At this time, Nan Yuanxi was taking a bath in the room. Xiao Hexiang reached out to pick it up, but she didn’t pay attention, and the book bag fell on the ground. , the documents inside were scattered.

　　Xiao Hexiang and Wan’er hurriedly lowered their heads to pick it up, but Xiao Hexiang only saw the first sentence of the manuscript, and couldn’t pull out her eyes…

　　…

　　Nan Yuanxi soaked in the tub, constantly recalling the conversation between Chen Luo and himself today.

　　”Narration? Story?”

　　”A new newspaper for Li Shu?”

　　”What kind of new newspaper is that?”

　　At this time, Nan Yuanxi heard Xiao Hexiang’s cry from outside the house. Nan Yuanxi was startled, jumped out of the bathtub, wrapped a coat, and opened the door, only to see Xiao Hexiang lying on the table, her shoulders shaking, crying extremely sad. The pills on the side kept shedding tears, and kept wiping them with a handkerchief!

　　”Xiang’er, what’s wrong with you?” Nan Yuanxi asked anxiously.

　　That Xiao Hexiang raised her head and saw Nan Yuanxi. For some reason, her heart was full of anger. She grabbed the tea on the table and poured it at Nanyuan Xi, shouting, “It’s all you awful men…”

　　Nanyuan Xi: (”;)?

　　…

　　Chen Luo yawned and suddenly remembered that it seemed like he was going to have a morning audience with the King tomorrow. Wei Yan said that someone was going to talk about that literary heart.

　　Didn’t you say you recognized a master for yourself?

　　The product hasn’t arrived yet? Bad review!

　　If it really doesn’t work, just curry up to Senior Wei Yan closely!
