Chapter 90: Going against the grain

Feng Yi spoke eloquently, almost explaining the biggest difficulty at present and the dangerous situation he would face, but he still did it, disregarding his own life!

This action made Guo Jing stand in awe, he sighed softly and said: "Brother Feng is very insightful, wise and brave, there is no one else like him in the world.

It was a great blessing in Guo Jing's life to have the chance to meet her.

This time, Rong'er and I sent out invitations to heroes all over the world, but many famous people didn't accept them. Sigh!"

Huang Rong is extremely intelligent and has analyzed the current situation with Guo Jing. Although they are going to hold a martial arts conference to fight against the Mongols together, they are well aware that the current situation is delicate and dangerous, and people in the court are unwilling to deal with the gangsters.

Even if there are passionate men in the underworld who are willing to join the fight against the Mongols, they usually kill and burn people, regard human life as worthless, and are lawless. It is extremely dangerous to forcibly restrain such wild and ferocious people and put them in battle with the well-trained Mongolian elite soldiers.

If the war goes well, they may not dare to act rashly due to fear of military power and reputation, but if the war goes badly, there will be people who will turn against them. And some people think that they don't care whether the Song Dynasty and the Han people live or die, as long as they can keep themselves safe, that's all. Therefore, this topic is extremely heavy.

At this moment, even the air around seemed to become heavy.

Feng Yi smiled and said: "The way of heaven is to reduce the excess and supplement the deficiency, which is exactly the intention of the opening chapter of the Nine Yin Manual.

But if you are not a great saint, a wise man, and a person of great wisdom and intelligence, how can you understand the meaning of the way of heaven of "taking from the surplus and making up for the deficiency"?

Therefore, the more capable a person is, the more hardships he or she will face. Those who can survive the disaster are all outstanding people with great benevolence, justice, wisdom and courage. Therefore, in their eyes, the greater their responsibility is, just like you, Mr. Guo and your wife. However, there are too few people like you! There are too many people who are selfish, only care about their own gains, worship the powerful, and bully the weak. This is human nature.

Therefore, to reduce what is insufficient and to make up for what is in excess has become the way of humanity, and has also created a situation in the world where the strong will always be strong and the weak will always be weak.

Today, Mongolia is powerful, its national fortune is prosperous, and it is full of talented people, but our Han Dynasty is in decline. Famous generals such as Yue Wumu, Han Shizhong, and Meng Gong have all died.

Moreover, in this court, no matter how capable a general is, he will be constrained by logistical supplies and will not be able to win by force.

Only by being surprising can we win, otherwise this beautiful land will become a racetrack for Mongolia to gallop across the land!"

These words shocked Guo Jing and Huang Rong, and they looked at Huang Yaoshi.

The two of them had no idea that someone else knew the Nine Yin Scriptures, and they thought it was Huang Yaoshi who told them.

Huang Yaoshi looked strange and sighed, "I have no idea where he got the Nine Yin Manual."

He actually guessed that Wang Chongyang had lost to Lin Chaoying, so perhaps it was he who left it behind, but this would go against his promise that he would never read the Nine Yin Scriptures.

Huang Yaoshi didn't want to say more about Wang Chongyang's reputation. As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Yaoshi's dark pupils suddenly flashed with a sharp light, like a flash of lightning in the thick clouds, and he rushed straight to Feng Yi and said, "You just said that you were burdened by your reputation. Are you afraid of me?"

Huang Yaoshi was extremely intelligent, so how could he not hear what Feng Yi was hinting at?

Feng Yi's eyes were also frighteningly bright, as clear as ice and snow, and he stared at the other person with two cold rays. He nodded and said, "Of course there is one like you. You seem noble, but in fact you have been burdened by fame all your life. Don't choose me!"

Huang Yaoshi was so arrogant that he didn't even bother to attack the soldiers who wanted to kill him. Asking him to assassinate someone would be harder than climbing to heaven.

Moreover, he is very famous, and there are many people in the world who imitate him.

Therefore, he must join the assassination team like himself.

The two looked at each other with a force like thunder and lightning. Guo Jing and Huang Rong suddenly felt a chill around them and their bodies tensed up.

Huang Yaoshi suddenly burst into laughter.

The atmosphere became more relaxed with this smile. He said in a leisurely voice, "You are not afraid of others' ridicule and dare to speak your mind. You are honest enough to say this in front of my daughter and son-in-law, which shows that you are not the kind of person who hides things.

Being able to sacrifice small fame for greater gains as a person, based on these three points, you, Feng Yi, are a real character. It is not wrong for Huang Lao Xie to be criticized by you!

But I have two doubts. First, if I were like you, or if heroes all over the world could follow your example, we could successfully curb Mongolia's aggressive intentions through assassination. But we saved the Song Dynasty, and also saved the foolish court. Should we continue to allow this group of foolish rulers and treacherous ministers to indulge in debauchery and indulge in pleasure every night, and continue to suck the blood of the common people?

Second, the brutality of the Mongols is well known.

If we act in this way, you and I may not be afraid of danger, but when the Mongols are desperate, they will inevitably start a killing spree, killing civilians to vent their anger or to force us to submit. The disaster will spread far and wide and will be out of control, and you and I will become sinners for all eternity.

We can also not be afraid of praise or criticism, but why should we understand that the people are suffering? "

Guo Jing also slowly raised his head, looked at the boundless sky, and said sadly: "My father-in-law is right. The current situation is full of thorns and is extremely dangerous. If we don't handle it properly, we will not only be deserted by our friends and relatives, but also be caught in a pincer attack. This situation is really sad and melancholy."

Feng Yi said calmly: "What you two said makes sense, I have thought about this a long time ago.

First, we massacred officials on a large scale. If the Mongols wanted to retaliate, they would not start killing ordinary people at the first place.

Because they believed that they were powerful enough and wanted to rule the world, they could not just carry out a large-scale massacre. Not only would they lose the support of the people, but they would also increase the Han people's hatred of the enemy, which would invisibly add to their own troubles.

If he takes two steps, he will certainly send his martial arts masters to defeat the number one martial artist in the Central Plains in public and undermine our morale. This is something their so-called masters cannot do.

Or let the martial artists assassinate the officials of the Song Dynasty, which is actually a good thing for me.

The Song Dynasty was completely rotten, and it wouldn't be a pity if it disappeared.

China has been home to many talented people since ancient times. Whether they are powerful or humble, there are always those who are able to seize the opportunity and rise up.

I don’t care whether the people in this world are named Guo, Huang or Feng, as long as I can’t let the Mongolian Boljijin take over the world, that’s enough!

Let’s talk about the second question.

If the Mongols are really forced into a corner and massacre the people, even if the entire Han people do not resist, and all kneel down to be humiliated, will the Mongols not kill people? Hero Guo, I heard that Temujin sent Tolui to lead the army to capture Qingzhou. Seeing that the enemy was too powerful and could not resist, you thought of assassinating Tolui? Is this true? "

Guo Jing and Huang Rong looked at each other in paleness, wondering how Feng Yi knew all this.

Guo Jing nodded and said, "That's right! I originally wanted to assassinate my sworn brother to drive back the Mongolian army, but Genghis Khan happened to be seriously ill and the Mongolian army retreated, so I was able to fulfill my brotherhood."

Feng Yi said: "Well, if you really kill Tolui, whether the Mongolian army will retreat or not is not worth mentioning.

What about Genghis Khan? Have you ever thought about it?"

Guo Jing's chest trembled, and he thought to himself: "Yes, when we attacked Khwarezm, he wanted to massacre the whole city because one of his grandsons had died. If I had really killed Tolui, I'm afraid all the soldiers and civilians in Qingzhou would have been buried with him today!" Thinking of this, his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Huang Rong knew what her husband was thinking and reached out to hold his hand.

Feng Yi continued, "Since ancient times, whether it is the change of dynasties or the change of dynasties, there are too many great men and heroes in this world who can't stand this cannibalistic world and want to save it, so they will definitely fight.

As long as there is struggle, there will be sacrifice.

The number of people who died, whether they were kings, generals, or ordinary people, was in the tens of millions, and no one could change or stop it.

But if Mongolia really carried out a massacre, it would be tragic, but it would also give those Han people who were sitting on the fence and watching a clear understanding.

At that time, people's hearts were scattered and the world was in chaos. There must be a true hero who would soar to the sky and change the dynasty. This sacrifice is meaningful after all!"

Huang Yaoshi, Guo Jing and Huang Rong all knew that Feng Yi was right, but this was a situation that no one wanted to see. For a moment, they sighed in sorrow, their faces looking like prisoners of Chu facing each other.

Feng Yi looked at the three people with a flickering gaze. He suddenly sighed and said slowly, "Of course, we have to try our best to prevent this day from happening, so I still have a backup plan."

"Backhand?" The three of them were all stunned. Huang Yaoshi frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean?"

Feng Yi said: "Mongol now occupies half of the Central Plains, but their roots are all on the grasslands. If a great disturbance occurs on the grasslands at this time, what will be the result?"

Huang Yaoshi understood what he meant and laughed, "Need I say more? The Mongols are a small barbarian nation, greedy and savage by nature, and wantonly conquer others. They rely on strong bows and fast horses to achieve their goals. If there is unrest in the grasslands and the army is unstable, how can they march south?"

At this point, he sighed, "But the grassland is vast and the royal court is heavily guarded. How can you make the journey?"

Feng Yi looked at Guo Jing and Huang Rong and said, "This is where I rely on you two."

Huang Rong smiled and said, "Just talk without any defense!"

Feng Yi said: "Nomadic peoples live wherever there is water and grass, but since the Qin and Han dynasties, it has been difficult to find their whereabouts. I heard that you two once brought disciples from the Beggars' Sect to help Temujin in his western expedition. Are those people still alive?"

Huang Rong nodded and said, "Of course there are. There are hundreds of them. What are you going to do?"

Feng Yi sighed, glanced at Guo Jing, hesitated for a moment, raised his black eyebrows, and said coldly: "My idea is that while Hero Guo and other heroes are fighting the powerful enemies in the front, I, Feng Yi, have prepared a large amount of poison and brought people who are familiar with the Mongolian routes to sprinkle a large amount of poison on the water sources on the grassland..."

“什么？”饶是郭靖久历风浪，也是惊怒交进，霍然起身，喝道：“蒙古侵略固然可恨，我们杀官杀将也就罢了，可那些百姓只知道牧羊放马，无拳无勇，他们也得喝水，你这样斩尽杀绝，大伤天和不说，蒙古人难道不能效仿？

他们也可以投毒，届时整个天下生灵涂炭……”

风逸截口道：“难道现在不是生灵涂炭？我从长安一路南行至此，荒村处处，人烟稀少，许多大好良田都是荆棘丛生，处处都是烽烟痕迹，真所谓“贼过如梳，兵过如篦”。

呵呵，那位伟大的成吉思汗说的多好：男子最大的乐事，在于压服乱众，战胜敌人，夺取其所有一切，骑其骏马，纳其美貌之妻妾，这句话，郭大侠你听过没有？”

郭靖略一迟疑，随之点头。

他跟随铁木真西征时，就听过这话。

风逸淡淡道：“因人性有恶，才以法度严刑天下，因人好利，才有土地财货之争伐，心有贪欲，才有暴力与杀戮，生有奢望，才有骄奢淫逸、声色犬马。

而蒙古人本就野蛮，不通教化，却以他们伟大的成吉思汗为榜样，只想着攻城掠地，杀人眷属，夺人所爱，淫人妻女。

铁木真固然是个屠夫，可他的强权，不知道让多少人为其拥趸，他们也想纷纷效仿，抢对方的财物，睡别人的女人。

所以现在北地的很多汉人努力加入，就是为了享受。

况且蒙古百姓是牧马放羊，无拳无勇的无辜，我中原百姓难道就不是男耕女织的无辜？

蒙古横行肆虐，掠我财富与女子供以享乐，将男子老人赶入攻城队伍中，逞杀戮之能，瓦解我军军心，这种恶魔行径，何曾讲过什么不杀无辜？

我们难道就要讲仁义道德？你说的不错，他们也可以效仿投毒，但时局如此，纵然朝廷兵勇与天下豪杰都愿意和蒙古大军拼个你死我亡，难道就不死人？既是死人，死兵、死将、死百姓，真有什么区别吗？

三岁小孩都知道，百姓随时可以变成兵士，正因如此，蒙古人每到一地，总要杀些百姓，一则立威，二则是因为我们汉人太多。

可他们不敢一次性杀戮太多，只因怕激起汉人逆反之心，从而万众一心齐抗蒙古，这可不是他们仁慈！

而蒙古百姓也是一样，他们闲时牧羊，但胯上马匹，手挽强弓，手挥弯刀，就可以飙行千里，难道非等他们踏我国土，杀我子民，我们才能还击吗？汉武帝说的好，寇可往，我亦可往！

那么寇可为，我亦可为！”

风逸这番话让黄蓉沉默，她知道风逸也看清了敌我虚实，自知实力相差太过悬殊，才如此行事。但她更知道丈夫的想法，不由得心如刀绞，面上神色更是痛楚之至。

黄药师定力过人，即便惊讶，也不过挑一下眉毛，等风逸说完这番话，他的眉毛也挑了八次之多。

他没想到，今日见到了比他更邪、比西毒更毒的人了。

还如此年轻！至于郭靖扬眉握拳，心口似有一团火焰，烧得他喘不过气来。

他在蒙古长大，他痛恨蒙古的残暴，可他也知道蒙古牧民的可怜。

但大宋百姓何尝不可怜？华夏锦绣山河，千里为墟，白骨累累。

最⊥新⊥小⊥说⊥在⊥六⊥9⊥⊥书⊥⊥吧⊥⊥首⊥发！

而且对于风逸的感情，也很复杂。

他孤身一人，能不顾毁谤与风险，千里杀官，为国为民之心让郭靖大感敬佩。

他知道这个消息时，就希望对方能够平安无危。

但是，对于风逸设想的毒辣手段，他又一万个不认可。

这种种错综复杂的思虑，一时间困扰着郭靖，不由忖道：“这天下间若再无兵灾饥荒，政治清明，没有贪官污吏，耕者有其田，劳者有其酬，人人互相敬爱，不生龌龊，两族和睦共处，那该是何等的了不起，那一天，不知能有多好。”

郭靖他不希望任何一方落得悲惨的下场，却又深感无力，蒙蒙胧胧生出天下大同的念头。

可惜风逸不知他的想法，否则会告诉他，再过几千年，他的这种想法都不会实现。

这是困扰古今无数哲人志士，却始终不能真正实现的妄念罢了。

包括风逸，也只能空想。

就是前世他所处时代，也是无数仁人志士殚精竭虑，与一众普通百姓用生命硬生生堆出来的，却在普通人不知道的时候，仍旧争斗不休，时而牺牲官军。

所以任是郭靖身负九阴真经、降龙十八掌、空明拳、左右互搏，弹指神通等等神功，堪为天下武林第一人，对此，也就只能想象一番罢了。

郭靖越想越是悲愤难抑，蓬的一掌，击在身旁石头上，震得石屑四飞，恨恨说道：“莫非真就没办法了吗？难道当世便真无英雄了吗？非得走到这一步不可？”

风逸喟然说道：“英雄拔剑，苍生之劫！除非有谁能让蒙古罢兵。再或者您居高一呼，让武林人物和蒙古军队拼个你死我亡便了。”

郭靖厉声道：“那又怎样？你的办法或许能成功，但那是伤敌八百，自损一千，我辈习武之人总不能将一切让普通老百姓承受！”

风逸笑了笑：“郭大侠大仁大义，这我是知道的。然而似你这种人，大都是凭添后人几许惋惜怅惘，有几人真能得偿心愿，造福苍生？”

郭靖涩声说道：“我从不敢说什么大仁大义，可这样做，我等和蒙古人又有何区别？”

风逸叹了口气，微微苦笑：“话虽不错，可你我之辈行事，哪个不是将脑袋别在裤腰带上？咱们不是让别人死，自己躲在后方！我们也在拼命！

兵家孙武子说过‘兵无常势，水无常形。’

所以遇上好人讲德行，我们就该跟他讲德行。

恶人崇尚武力，就跟他讲武力。

他们玩弄驱赶百姓攻城的阴谋诡计，我就能给他行污染水源的阴谋诡计！那些一视同仁、以德服人的勾当，呵呵，听听就算了。

你说孔夫子复生，能不能让蒙古不侵宋？丘道长曾经劝铁木真，劝了个什么结果？”

郭靖脸上阴云密布，还要再说。

风逸说道：“郭大侠，你知道‘日暮途穷，故而倒行逆施’这一句话么？”

郭靖摇了摇头。

黄蓉说道：“这是汉朝主父偃说的，意思是说，反正活不长了，以前不敢想、不敢做的事不妨统统干一个遍。后来主父偃胆大妄为，被汉武帝抄家灭族了！”

“不错！”风逸淡淡道：“我认为硬拼打不过蒙古人，我比主父偃也好些，师父家人不在这个世上，只有一个女子跟着我，反正就这么两条命，游牧民族觊觎中原之心，千年以来，从不忘却。

风某不自嫌力，决意解一解这个难题，无论换一个天下太平也好，生灵涂炭也罢，这倒行逆施我也认为值了！”

风逸从来都是淡泊毁誉，要的都是实际，可话语间却透出一股凄凉。

毕竟这种投毒之事，他也知道太过毒辣。

可不这样，郭靖夫妇带领中原豪杰最终死伤惨重，大伤武林元气，却也没能改变蒙古入主中原的境况！

想到蒙古人治国如纵马，汉人经受的种种不平等，哪怕被人唾骂万世，他也干了！

可惜投毒之事，绝不是一个人能够完成的，也不是他这个路痴干的了的。

他进入草原投毒，也得保证自己有供给，否则总不能将自己也撂在草原上。

所以他要借助那些跟随蒙古西征过的丐帮之人。

郭靖听出风逸心意已决，再劝也是枉然，不由长叹了一口气。

风逸转眼看他，说道：“你在蒙古长大，我知道你心中为难。

可我不知蒙古地形，我下毒也得给自己留出一条补充通道，故而此事舍丐帮之外，我无人可求。

今日我也不需要你现在同意，你可以在这关中大地上，再看看，蒙古给这华夏文明带来了什么？而且你的想法，我也知道，是想联络群豪冀图一逞，明知不敌也要拼个你死我活。这在我看来，不过是匹夫匹妇的侠烈，我辈却不能效此。

毕竟这不是什么武林争雄，解决个人恩怨，而是天下、民族之命运。

你被人称为郭大侠，不是你在武林中做了什么，而是因为你当初拒绝铁木真封赏，不叛母国，可以横枪立马立于青州门前，护住了青州军民，退了蒙古大军。

所以你有这个资格威望，召开武林大会，可若不能将民族命运置如泰山之安，我辈万死也是难赎！郭大侠，你好好想想吧，侠名从来都是不容易担承的，你若为难，回桃花岛上，管他天下谁属，我相信，凭你与铁木真、拖雷的交情，什么蒙哥忽必烈拔都，不都得叫你一声郭叔父吗？操这心干啥？”

这番话，让郭靖但觉心头沉甸甸的。

It was unknown whether Master Huang Yao and his daughter were moved by these words, or had other thoughts, or what, they remained silent.

Feng Yi bowed and said, "Okay, I've said everything I need to say. I still have to rush to Guanzhong, and you all have other important matters to attend to. We'll meet again on the day of the Heroes' Conference. I hope I can get a reply. I'll take my leave now."

Huang Yaoshi suddenly said: "Are you going to Longju Village? I will accompany you..."

Feng Yi shook his head and said, "Thank you, Island Master Huang! I don't like to fight a battle that I'm not sure of. Since they are waiting for me, I won't go!

Besides, the reason why I went south was to give the Mongols the illusion that I was going to the south of the Yangtze River. In fact, if I wanted to destroy Mongolia, I should go north. Why should I go south?

It's just that killing people once in Guanzhong is not enough to shock people. I have to let the new person die again, that will be more convincing!"

Huang Yaoshi burst into laughter: "You are as cunning as a devil!"

Feng Yi smiled and said, "No matter how slippery I am, I will still be followed by you without knowing it, right?" As he spoke, the figure had already disappeared into the darkness.

When Guo Jing saw him leave, he felt sad and couldn't help asking, "Rong'er, do you think Feng Yi is a bad guy?"

Huang Rong frowned and shook her head, saying, "I have been dealing with evil people since I was a child. Although I can't always see through people, I can still see some clues.

Feng Yi may look a bit evil on the outside, but he is honest on the inside and is definitely not a bad person.

Otherwise, how could he say these words to the three of us without any scruples? And from what he said, I knew he admired your character and integrity. Such a person would never be involved in evil, right? Dad? "

Huang Yaoshi smiled and said, "Okay, you two can discuss it yourselves!" Then he tilted his eyes and looked at Guo Jing, "In one's life, how can one have the best of both worlds? When you worked for the Mongols, everyone admired you and listened to your orders! Now if you raise your arms, will they listen to you? After all, people are close to each other and distant to each other!"

As he spoke, the green shadow disappeared silently, and Huang Yaoshi was no longer visible.

Jing Rong and Huang Rong looked at each other. Huang Rong swallowed her saliva and said loudly: "Dad, I am going to do this. Don't scold your daughter for being unfilial!"

Guo Jing said anxiously: "Rong'er..."

Huang Rong covered his mouth with her hand and said with a smile: "Brother Jing, Feng Yi's move may not be a bad thing. Maybe it can really make the two countries stop fighting?"

Guo Jing frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Huang Rong sighed and said, "What did the Mongols want when they attacked and plundered cities? Because my Central Plains is rich and full of beautiful women.

These wealth and manpower are what they are obsessed with. If they really provoke both sides to use poison to cause destruction, it is something no one wants to see. In the end, they will be trapped in their own web. So why bother?

Everything in life depends on chance, how can you force it? Silly brother."

Guo Jing knew that his wife was extremely intelligent, and after hearing what she said, his mind became clear and he felt relieved.
