So, things -33 swordsman figure (4) the woman in the car

-Tang Huangfu "The Original Story"

Original text:

During the Kaiyuan period, scholars from Wuxian county went to Beijing, which should be an enlightened move. When I arrived in Beijing, I walked around the square. Every two teenagers, wearing linen shirts, passed by the scholars with great respect. However, they are not old friends, and scholars call them misunderstandings.

A few days later, they met again and said, "I didn't come to this place as a Lord, but today I want to pay my respects." When I met you, I really won my heart. Just ask. " Although scholars are very skeptical, they are strong. Arriving at the Digital Plaza, there are several roadside shops in a little song in Dongcheng, which are all directly connected. Musk deer month was extremely purged, and the two took the lead in the hall, and the banquet was very prosperous. The two of them sat opposite the guests by rope, each with more than twenty teenagers. Courtesy is also sincere, and serving guests is also counted.

In the afternoon, Fang Yun said, "It's the limit!" Hearing a car coming straight to the door, several teenagers held it until the front of the hall. That's a car. Rolling the curtain, I saw a woman coming out of the car, seventeen or eighteen years old, with a beautiful face, a full bun and simple clothes. Two people worship, the woman does not answer. Scholars worship it, and women worship it. So I invited guests in. When a woman is promoted, she will sit at the table and bow to the host and guest. There are more than a dozen young people, all wearing new clothes, each standing in a row and sitting under the guest. Chen is very tasteful and exquisite. After a few glasses of wine, the woman held the cup and said, "The two gentlemen have proposed to talk, and now you are happy to see it come true. Are there any wonderful skills to look at? " The scholar thanked him and said, "I only studied Confucianism since I was a child." I have never learned how to sing a stringed instrument. "The woman said," what I have learned is wrong. Think about it. What can you do first? "The guest pondered for a long time and said," One is in a school. There are boots on the wall. Take a few steps. I haven't done it since I had a play. " The woman said, "Sure, please try it." Snyder began to walk on the wall and went down without a few steps. The woman said, "It's also very difficult. "It is a review of teenagers sitting in chairs. Every command is a skill. Everyone began to worship, and then there were walkers on the wall, and walkers held rafters, and the light and swift play was like a bird. The man was frightened and at a loss. Later, the woman got up and resigned. The scholar was shocked and uneasy.

A few days later, I saw them again on the road and said, "You want to ride a fake horse, can you?" Scholars agreed. Tomorrow, when we hear that property has been lost in the Guanyuan Garden, we will cover up the thief and only accept the horse, the bearer. After inspecting the horse owner, he gathered all the scholars and went to the province to ask questions. Driving into the small door, the official pushed it from behind, fell into the pit several feet, looked up at the roof seven or eight feet, and saw only a hole, only more than a foot. From Dan to food, I saw a rope hanging down to eat. The reader is hungry and eager to eat. After eating, the rope was taken away.

Late at night, very sad. Suddenly I saw something like a bird flying down, and I realized it was a person. He touched the scholar with his hand and said, "I'm scared, but I'm not worried." Listen to its voice, and then listen to the woman you meet. Yun: "* * * You are out." Tie the scholar's chest with silk, and tie the woman's body with silk head. The woman jumped up, flew out of Miyagi and walked dozens of miles to the gate. Yun said, "You can go back to Jianghuai, ask the official for advice, and wait another day." Fortunately, the scholar escaped from the prison and begged for food. Later, he dared not seek fame in the West.

Figure:

Tuzan: I'm scared. I don't want to be an official.

Jin Yong's note:

During the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, a Wuxian juren went to Beijing to take the exam and seek an official position. When I arrived in Chang 'an, I was strolling in the community when I saw two teenagers dressed in linen coming face to face and bowing respectfully to him, but I didn't really know them. Juren think they are mistaken for others, and they don't care.

A few days later, I met again. The two men said, "Here comes the" xianggong ". We haven't fulfilled our friendship as landlords. We will be invited today. If only we could meet at this moment. " Salute while insisting on inviting each other. Juren was suspicious, but seeing each other's sincerity, he followed. After a few blocks, I came to an alley in the East Side. There are several roadside shops. When I went in together, I saw that the house was quite neat. The two invited him to sit on the table and arranged a banquet, which was very rich. There are also several teenagers in their twenties who are also very respectful, but they always go out to watch, as if waiting for guests. In the afternoon, everyone said, "coming, coming!"

I heard the sound of a car outside the door. A limousine went straight to the front of the hall, followed by several teenagers. When the curtain rolled up, a woman came out of the car, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a gorgeous face, a hair clasp on her head, jewels and a plain silk blouse. The two teenagers fell to the ground, but the woman didn't answer. The juren also saluted, and the women reciprocated and invited guests in. This woman is sitting in the middle outward position. Please sit down for two at a time, and then sit down after the threesome ceremony. There are a dozen teenagers, all dressed in light new clothes, sitting next to the guests.

The dishes sent by the servants are extremely clean. After a few drinks, the woman raised her glass and said to the juren, "Nice to meet you today. I heard that you are skilled, can you feast our eyes? " Juren was modest and said, "I have only learned Confucianism and orchestral music since I was a child, but I have never learned it." The woman said, "That's not what I said. "Xianggong, please think carefully about what you have."

Juren pondered for a long time and said, "When I was at school, that boy was naughty and practiced walking on the wall with boots. He could take several steps." As for the rest of the fun, it's really not. "The woman said happily," I was just about to ask you to perform this stunt. "

Lift the person and then leave the seat, sprint, rush to the wall, and take a few steps before jumping down. The woman said, "That's not easy either." Look back at the teenagers in the seats and let everyone contribute their skills.

All the teenagers bowed to the lady and then showed their wonderful skills. Some people jump on the wall, others walk in mid-air, their hands on the rafters, and they look like birds. When a person sees what he doesn't see, he will feel scared and at a loss. After a while, the woman got up and said goodbye to the door. I was shocked and went back to my apartment, in a trance, wondering what that woman and teenager were like.

A few days later, I met two more people on the road. They asked, "Can I borrow your car?" Juren immediately agreed.

The next day, news from the capital said that the palace had been stolen. The government covered up the thief and searched very carefully, but only found a horse with stolen goods and asked its owner. Finally, Juren was detained and sent to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for investigation. The leader pushed him into a small door and gave him a hard push on the back. A man fell into a pit a few feet deep, got up and looked up at the roof. It was about seven or eight feet away from the pit, and there was only a small hole in the roof.

I waited anxiously for a long time and saw a bowl of food tied with rope in the hole. Juren was hungry and hurried to eat. After eating, the long rope hung the bowl again.

Juren stayed up all night, feeling very angry and thinking that innocent people were hurt. This time I am afraid that I will die here. Just when I was worried, I looked up and suddenly saw something like a bird jump into the pit from a small hole, but it was a person. The man patted him with his hand and said, "I'm scared." However, when someone is around, he is carefree (must be scared? But stay with me, don't worry. "Turns out to be the woman in the car. She added, "I'll get you out. "Take out a piece of silk, one end tied to his chest and the other end tied to himself. The woman arched up and flew out of Miyagi with a juren and flew out of the palace gate for dozens of miles. Then she jumped down and said, "xianggong", go back to your hometown and ask for an official plan. Let's talk about it later. "

Juren sneaked on foot, begged for food and shelter, and finally returned to Wudi, but never dared to go to Beijing to pursue fame and gain.

This story also appeared in the Native Story, and the thief described is very modern. The leader is a beautiful girl with high martial arts skills, and all her subordinates are well-dressed teenagers. This kind of situation has never been written in general martial arts novels. Surprisingly, the thief stole the treasures in the palace. Why the thief found this juren has aroused people's reverie. It seems that this Suzhou juren is young and handsome, and has the lightness skill of walking on the wall. As the thieves know, the woman wanted to invite him to join the team, but after trying his kung fu, it was flat and faint, so she gave up her initial heart. Borrowing a horse from him was just a deliberate frame-up, so that he was first caught by the government and then rescued. He has become a fugitive and can never tell the government.

Editor's note:

I can only say a few words about this bizarre story.

First, we should not be greedy for petty gain. In this article, when two teenagers first came into contact with the scholar, he just admitted his mistake and didn't mind. But the second time I looked for him, although he knew that the other party had admitted his mistake, he followed. I think Jin Yong's translation is a bit subjective. The original text only wrote that two teenagers invited scholars, and they did not call them by their first names. Most people always explain that they are strangers, but the scholar said nothing, held back his doubts and followed. )

Second, it is important to have self-knowledge. It's not that his skill of showing off the wall is to teach an axe to teach others. But after seeing the stunts of those teenagers, he was already scared. But after two days, the other party came to borrow the horse, which was generous. After encountering strangers of unknown origin and bizarre dinners, I still didn't arouse my vigilance and take precautions in time. It was finally planted. Of course, there is another possibility that he likes the woman in the car. If this is really the reason, I can only say that after seeing the skills of the other team, I still can't tell the difference between myself and the other team. This is not self-knowledge.

Speaking of it, this routine of the woman in the car in this story is the usual trick of fraudsters nowadays. The first is to get in touch with you by pretending to be a mature person (either pretending to be a bank and other units with strong credibility, or making friends with you and finding out your details). Next, use threats and inducements to lure you into a trap (treat guests as inducements, beautiful women as seduces, and experts as threats). Finally, I robbed you and left you begging.

This trick has been used for thousands of years and has always been very effective. How to prevent it? I think, in any case, if you keep a clear head, think carefully when something happens, analyze the pros and cons, as Zhao Chunv said in the story, close your door and don't expose your weaknesses and ideas easily, then it will be difficult for a liar to prescribe the right medicine.
