The Evil Cloud of Taiping Chapter 37 Du's Postscript

After a few poking, Boss Dong poked a hole in the back of the remaining plaque, which was about the size of a matchbox. I saw that there were indeed two pages of letter paper folded into tofu blocks hidden in the plaque. One of the pages was full of words, which seemed to be Du Wenxiu's suicide note; the other page was drawn with a road map.

The contents of the handwritten book are as follows:

I think that my letter to the Heavenly King has not been sent out yet, but I heard the bad news of the Heavenly King’s death. I was shocked and sighed, regretful and painful. Looking at the world, the Heavenly King died, the King of Righteousness passed away, and the first time, Yunfeng changed, who can be a confidant in the world?

When the king of heaven dies, the country will be exhausted, which is the result of the qi of the country. When the king dies, the stars will be extinguished, which is the result of the misfortune of the people. When the comrades are different, the mind will be exhausted, which is the result of my sorrow.

If aspirations are deprived, there is no interest in living. A real man stands in the world, how can he live in secret for fame, fortune and wealth? So he sent a dead man to hide the treasures given by the Heavenly King in the Dian Cang. If future generations obtain my ambitions, relieve my sorrows, and understand my intentions, and break the plaque and get the map, he should take all the treasures and start a military army, and swear to revolutionize the Qing Dynasty, save the people and inherit the will of the Heavenly King, and fulfill my responsibility before I can fulfill it.

It roughly means:

Before the letter I wrote to the Heavenly King (Hong Xiuquan) was sent out, I received the news of the Heavenly King's death. It was so amazing that I was "surprised and sighed, regretful and sad". Looking at the world, the Heavenly King died, the Yi King (Shi Dakai) was also killed, the Ying King (Chen Yucheng) died early, the Ma Comeback, and Ma Yunfeng (i.e. Ma Rulong) betrayed. Who else is my confidant in the world?

If the king of heaven dies, the country's fortune has been exhausted, and it is the destined energy of the (Taiping Heavenly Kingdom); if all the kings (can be fought) dies, the fire of the (uprising) has been extinguished, which is the misfortune of the people; and all the comrades (revolutionary) have been rebelled. My (uprising) spirit will be gone, and this is my own (life).

Even the spirit of uprising was gone. Living was boring. A real man lived in the world. He could not live in vain for the sake of high officials and generous salaries, so he sent a suicide squad to hide the treasures sent by the king to me on Diancang Mountain. If future generations have the same ambition as me, understand my sorrow, understand my thoughts, and find the (treasure) picture from the plaque, he should use these treasures to recruit soldiers and horses to continue the rebellion, determined to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and save the people from water and fire, so as to continue the unfinished career of the king, which can be regarded as completing the remaining mission for me.

"It seems that this guy never forgot to rebel until he dies..." Looking at this so-called "auspicious letter", Zhang Yicheng smiled helplessly. According to what the letter said, Du Wenxiu defected to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, not as Tong Guohu said, but was foolishly treating Hong Xiuquan as a revolutionary comrade. It seems that this guy really didn't know that Hong Xiuquan used gold to make urinals until he died...

"How is it? I guessed right? There are many words on Wuwu Novel Network." Zhou Yunran was staring at Zhang Yicheng with a smile and said proudly.

"Ranran, I...uh...Sajia must admit that you are so smart!" To be honest, at this moment, Zhang Yicheng had to truly admire Zhou Yunran's insight. Such a subtle mystery, even Tong Guohu himself did not notice it. So it took more than ten years to find the so-called treasure, but it was actually solved by this little girl in five minutes. If Tong Guohu woke up, he knew about this matter. I guess even if he was not angry on the spot, he would have to fall into the root of the disease in the second half of his life.

"I understand!" Boss Dong, next to the coffee table, was concentrating on studying the treasure map, and then slapped his thighs suddenly. "I said why is Du Wenxiu's treasure route so strange... Alas, I'm so confused..."

"Do you understand? Why are you confused?" Zhang Yicheng also came to Boss Dong and saw that all the reference objects on this so-called treasure map were nothing more than some city towers, trees, stones, streams, etc., no place name, no scale, no text description, and the whole thing was one, three, no map. Anyway, with his own recognition ability, he could not find a place to hold this treasure map.

"This is a shortcut! It's much closer than your father and the others!" According to Boss Dong, the route that guided Qin Ge was based on the traditional hiking route. The more than 20 kilometers of mountain road from Dali ancient city to the mountain village is actually a hiking route that outdoor enthusiasts often take. It's exactly half a day's journey. After that, you can replenish supplies in the mountain village and you can return on the same day. However, the route marked on the ancient map is direct from the ancient city to the destination. Although there is no place to replenish supplies in the middle, it's much closer than going around the mountain village first and then entering the mountain. "To be honest, I don't know the road marked on the map, because no one has ever walked like this before. If this road really exists, it will be at least a day closer than your father and the others..."

"One day?" Zhang Yicheng felt energetic when he heard this, "So, if we set out tomorrow morning, we would almost arrive at the destination with my dad at the same time?"

"Setting out?" Boss Dong was stunned, "What are you going to do?"

"Looking for my dad," Zhang Yicheng said, "Isn't I here just to find my dad..."

"Oh..." Boss Dong nodded with a happy look on his face. It seemed that he had also thought about "Raiders of the Lost Ark" 1. "Since that's the case... how about I take you there? I have also climbed Diancang Mountain several times. I think... I should be able to find the place marked in this picture!"

"Okay!" Zhang Yicheng was just hoping that he would let himself enter the mountain with such a foggy treasure map of Zhang Yunshan, and he would die in the mountains.

"Yicheng...I..." Zhang Yicheng was chatting with Boss Dong very enthusiastically, and Zhou Yunran seemed to be unable to help it, "Can I go?" Wucuo Novel Network does not jump to the word.

"Uh...you..." Zhang Yicheng was stunned, "Ranran, you are waiting for me here, we will be back soon..."

"Yicheng...I..." Zhou Yunran pursed her lips, as if she was holding back her tears, "I just wanted to..."

"Ranran, listen to me, climbing a mountain is not a fun thing..." Zhang Yicheng pulled Zhou Yunran aside, "Especially such wild mountains, there is no road, it is exhausting and it is not worth the life. Maybe there will be danger..."

"Yicheng...I really want to go with you..." Zhou Yunran pursed her lips, her voice as small as a mosquito, "I'm not afraid of fatigue, not danger, not afraid of danger..."

"Are you afraid of ghosts?" Zhang Yicheng was helpless, remembering when he went to inspect the house in Fukang Garden. Zhou Yunran seemed to be quite afraid of ghosts, so she wanted to talk about the topic of gods and ghosts. "Did you forget that brother Tong like that..."

"I'm not afraid..." Zhou Yunran seemed determined to follow.

"Oh, Ranran. Obedient!" Zhang Yicheng frowned, "Your mother is gone. What if you make another mistake, how can I explain to your cousin?"

"Well... well..." Zhou Yunran nodded reluctantly with aggrieved face, and a burst of tears rolled around in her eyes, which was really heartbreaking.

"Just take her there!" Boss Dong on the side couldn't stand it anymore, "Isn't it a ghost? It's so old that you still scare the girls with that thing?"

"Hey?" Zhang Yicheng never expected that this boss Dong could speak for Zhou Yunran, "Boss Dong. This...in case there is danger..."

"Dangerous? Dangerous? Isn't it because I'm going to climb Mount Everest and climb the Po Cang Mountain, can I be in danger?" Boss Dong walked up and down to Zhou Yunran's body, "Girl, can you swim?" Wuchuang Novel Network does not jump to the words.

"Yes!" Zhou Yunran stared at Boss Dong, his eyes full of gratitude, and nodded with his lips.

"Can you swim down two hundred meters?" Wucuo Novel Network did not jump to the word. Boss Dong continued to ask.

"Yes!" Zhou Yunran continued to nod, "I can swim five hundred meters!"

"No problem!" Boss Dong was determined. "Pack up your things and set off with us tomorrow morning!"

"Yeah!" Zhou Yunran burst into tears and laughed, "Thank you, Brother Dong!"

"Xiao Zhang, I'm in charge of this matter! The girl helped you find this thing. As a result, you didn't take her to play. Is there anyone who does this kind of thing?" Wuhuo Novel Network does not jump to the word. Boss Dong was swaying the treasure map in his hand, "If you don't take her there, then you can go by yourself!"

"Okay... bring... bring..." Zhang Yicheng was helpless, and then he thought about it. The plaque was made by Boss Dong, and the letter paper inside was discovered by Zhou Yunran. He had no contribution from beginning to end, so he naturally had no right to decide who would go or not. "Brother Dong, do you still have to swim in the middle?"

"Swimming is the most sport that tests physical fitness and endurance!" said Boss Dong, "It is necessary to swim 200 meters, or to swim two round trips in a standard swimming pool with a 50-meter standard, which is the entry standard for hiking and mountaineering. If you can swim 500 meters, it will definitely not be a problem!"

"You can really swim 500 meters..." Zhang Yicheng also agreed with Boss Dong's statement that swimming is measuring physical fitness, but he didn't believe that Zhou Yunran could really swim 500 meters. With his own physical fitness, running ten kilometers is not a problem. But if it were swimming, I'm afraid that swimming for one kilometer would cause blood to be exhausted. Although this girl looks much better than Liu Mengmeng, it is not equivalent to half of her...

"If you don't believe me, I'll show you tomorrow!" Zhou Yunran looked dissatisfied.

"Okay, okay... Save some energy to climb the mountain..." Zhang Yicheng was too lazy to be serious about this matter, so he simply placed Du Wenxiu's letter on the coffee table again. To be honest, when he saw this letter, Zhang Yicheng felt that the style of writing between the lines seemed to have been seen. "Why is it so familiar...? Ah! I remembered it! Ranran, wait for me here!" Staring at the letter on the coffee table, Zhang Yicheng slapped his thigh, stood up, ran all the way back to the room.

Since returning from Cangzhou last time, the large bag of magic tools has not been moved much, and Jiang Jun's exercise books full of radicals have been kept inside and not taken out. Seeing Du Wenxiu's handwriting, Zhang Yicheng suddenly remembered that although the words written by Jiang Jun were incomplete, the outlines of the strokes looked very similar to Du Wenxiu's handwriting.

Take out the exercise book that Jiang Jun did in the middle of the night from the pack, and Zhang Yicheng returned to the upper floor of the cafeteria. Compared with Du Wenxiu's handwritten handwriting, it turns out that at least, based on Zhang Yicheng's understanding of calligraphy, the styles of the two are no different.

"This... wasn't this written by my cousin?" Zhou Yunran was naturally familiar with the exercise book that Zhang Yicheng brought.

"Hehe... he is not your cousin..." Zhang Yicheng laughed and guessed in his heart. If nothing unexpected happens, I am afraid that the kite Jiang Jun will probably be the reincarnation of Du Wenxiu!

"Who? Who is not my cousin?" Zhou Yunran looked curious, "Is it... what my cousin wrote is the content of this letter?"

"Boss Dong, do you have an envelope?" Zhang Yicheng had already thought about the solution.

"Yes?" Boss Dong was stunned, "Wait, I'll take it for you... Is it okay for ordinary envelopes?"

"The bigger the better!" Zhang Yicheng waved the exercise books in his hand, "It's better to install these exercise books!"

...

Outside the inn, at the intersection.

After a heavy smoke, the exercise book written by Jiang Jun was burned to ashes in four or five large kraft paper envelopes. According to Zhang Yicheng's idea, in Du Wenxiu's suicide note, it seemed that the letter to Hong Xiuquan had been written, but he had received Hong's death before it was sent. If this is true, then Du Wenxiu seemed to have something important to tell Hong Xiuquan, but in the end he failed to get what he wanted. If the cause of Jiang Jun's "Yesterday syndrome" really came from, then burning the letter to "King Hong Tian" can relieve his resentment. In theory, its steps are no different from the traditional paper-burning customs of Qingming Festival.

"Ranran, call your cousin later and let him sleep soundly. If you still get up and write, I will cut off my meridians..." Looking at the small whirlwinds blew up at the burning site, Zhang Yicheng knew that his job was done...

The so-called resentment is the turbid yin energy formed by the unfulfilled wishes of the deceased. The greater the resentment, the heavier the yin energy of the soul, and therefore cannot balance the yin and yang with the fragile yang energy of the newborn, and it will not be reincarnated. In the traditional sense, most of the resentment is to deceive the soul by making fraudulent ways to achieve the purpose of reducing resentment for the deceased. However, not all last wishes can be fooled by fake means, such as Du Wenxiu's last wish.

Based on the analysis of the content of the suicide note, Du Wenxiu's wish is to overthrow the Qing Dynasty. This kind of poetic and historical desire is incomparable to the general public's desire to "a wife and a child are warm-up bed" and is definitely not a problem that can be solved by burning some paper money to make a few straw men. According to Zhang Yicheng's analysis, Du Wenxiu not only had ambitions during his lifetime, but also died of poisoning and was beheaded. The death was miserable and accompanied by suicide. If such heavy grievances were resolved under natural conditions, it would take eight thousand years to reach 10,000 years. At that time, whether human society is still unknown, it is basically equivalent to never being able to be reborn. The reason why he was able to be reborn as a male fox Jiang Jun at such a fast speed is likely because of the later generations Mr. Yat-sen.

The Xinhai Revolution overthrew the Qing Dynasty and fulfilled his wish in disguise. According to the theory of Taoism, no matter how heavy the soul is, even if it has become a evil spirit, if the great wish is suddenly fulfilled, his resentment may be resolved in an instant and reincarnated immediately with a transcendent theory of theories. Although similar cases are not common, there are many in ancient times. It seems that Tong Guohu did misunderstand his ancestors. People raising flags and rebelling are not just thinking about being the emperor, but really wanting to overthrow the corrupt Qing court, establish a new order, and save the people from water and fire. Once this wish is realized, it doesn’t matter who becomes the emperor. The ability of his soul to be the male fox Jiang Jun is a good proof...
