Xue's Master: A Record of Xue Xueyi.
I live in a little red, floating without a trace.
Three-year-old child's price 1200, which guarantees the owner to cross the sea and conquer the east.
This is the story of Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, who met a young man in a white robe in his dream and left him a hero to save the United States. Xu Maogong, a military adviser, had a dream for him, saying that it was auspicious for me to dream of a virtuous minister at night. "Far away, a little red" is the sunset in the western hills, suggesting that his family lives in Longmen, Jiangzhou, "fluttering leisurely" is "drifting snow", suggesting that his surname is "Xue" and the factory price is "expensive", suggesting that he is called "Gui Ren", and this white-robed boy Xue is the minister of our country. Sure enough, Xuemi Huigui later made great contributions to the world peace of Emperor Taizong. Today, the story of Xue's "one halberd consolidates the country and three arrows consolidates the Tianshan Mountains" is widely celebrated. However, few people know that Xue learned from his teacher in the mountains in his early years and worked hard at it.
Legend has it that Xue was born in a poor family in his early years, and his mother was old. He lives by selling coal and charcoal in Longmenshan every day. There is a Gaimayu at the foot of Longmen Mountain, which is the only place to transport charcoal. There are beautiful scenery, birds and flowers, and cliffs like galloping horses. Because the layman can't see the mountain, it is named Shemayu. There is a dishuiya in Shemayu, which is named Sieve Cliff because of its perennial spring water and continuous rain. There is a huge stone to the north of the cliff. According to legend, Guan Yunchang, a famous soldier of the Three Kingdoms, once set foot on this stone to fight, hence the name. Xue flies to Daiyue every day, drinks dew, walks 40 miles from his hometown Fenhe Bay, passes by here and lives on the back of Longmen Mountain. Longmen Mountain has rugged roads and steep mountains. Xue likes throwing stones and shooting pheasants and rabbits every day. Over time, he has developed a good arm strength, and can pick up charcoal blocks weighing 200 to 300 kilograms with both hands. He is naturally strong-willed and loves to fight injustice. One night, he went down the mountain with a big bag of coal on his back. Halfway up the mountain, he met two gangsters, who blocked the road and robbed a farmer who picked coal. The farmer begged, but the two gangsters punched and kicked and robbed the coal pick for money. Gui Ren shouted at him, but instead of listening, the two gangsters fought with Gui Ren. Gui Ren flew into a rage, punched the two gangsters black and blue, and they fled in panic. Gui Ren helped the farmer with a coal bag on his back and a coal burden on his shoulder, and escorted him down the mountain.
Xue goes out early and returns late. On the mountain road, he often met an old hunter as light as a swallow, with an arrow pot slung around his waist and a steel fork, carrying many prey. One day, when passing through Shemayu, Xue met the old hunter again. I heard the old hunter mutter, "Go straight to Mount Tai after crossing the sieve cliff, kill wolves and tigers during the day, and think about rise and fall at night." Hearing this, Gui Ren felt that the old hunter had some history, so he raised his hand and asked, "Dare you ask the old man, where did you get such high martial arts?" The old hunter replied, "The old man is useless and poor. He lives on the north slope and hunts for a living. Dare to ask who is young and strong, why is he as strong as an ox and can carry two or three hundred kilograms of coal? " Gui Ren replied: "Xiaoke lives in Fenhe Bay and supports his mother with charcoal every day." The old hunter said, "Young and strong, you still know filial piety and propriety so well, and you dare to resist injustice. Now the Sui Dynasty is dead, and the new Tang Dynasty is prosperous. Why not seek great things and serve the country? " Xue replied, "Xiao Ke has no ink on his chest and no skill. How does he serve the country? " The old hunter said, "If the young man has this ambition, the old man is willing to spread martial arts to you." Xue readily agreed, and immediately kowtowed to the old hunter as his teacher. It turned out that this old hunter was Wu Duaner, the leader of the peasant uprising in Longmen at the end of Sui Dynasty. Wu Duaner was in danger after his rebellion failed. He asked Wu to lead his eldest son to flee his hometown anonymously and hid in a remote village on the north slope of Yanping County for a long time. In the past, the eldest brother was Bo, so this village was later renamed Village.
After learning from the teacher, Xue is ambitious and studies hard. He goes hunting in the mountains with his master every day, practicing shooting and archery. He eats wild fruits when he is hungry and drinks spring water when he is thirsty. Or he killed a mountain pig and a rabbit with a gun in the mountains, or listened to the master teach him the secret of guns and arrows on the horse platform, and learned gun dance and bow shooting geese in Fenhe Bay. He is hard-working and persevering. Year after year, he braved the wind and rain, braved the wind and snow, practiced dog days in summer, and practiced Sanjiu in winter. He was proficient in all kinds of martial arts and was better at marksmanship and archery. One day, the master wanted to try Xue's marksmanship, and compete with him in riding horses and sticking stakes with guns. The master rode away. There are seven stakes in a row, and each stake has five holes, but Gui Ren actually has seven holes in each stake. The master was surprised. This is "the galloping horse gun is divided into five clubs, and the halberd flies over the big dipper seven". Later, he tried archery and asked him to shoot wild geese into the sky. Only when Gui Ren drew the bow did the two geese land together. The master asked in surprise why. It turned out that Gui Ren shot two arrows with a bow, and both arrows pierced the heart. At this moment, the master was overjoyed and said to Gui Ren, "You are very strong, and you are invincible. You can serve your country. "
Later, Xue left his master and his wife and joined the army under the account of Jiangzhou Zhang Shigui. Soon he joined Zheng Dong, and he was still a "rotor army". When the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was besieged in Andi City, Gui Ren saw this scene, so he didn't wear a white robe, only wore a kitchen coat, and ran on the rampage alone on the muddy beach, beating the enemy out of the water and running for his life. He helped Li Shimin, king of the Tang Dynasty, break through the tight encirclement and enter the enemy camp. After the Tang King was saved, he remembered that the white-robed boy in his dream was him, so he asked Wei Chijingde to look for this man. This is the "white robe of respecting morality". After conquering the East, Emperor Taizong said, "I don't like Liaodong, but I am happy to be a general" and rewarded me with a promotion. In Tang Gaozong, nine Turkic Hu Ye brothers led more than 100,000 troops to invade the Tang Dynasty from Tianshan Mountain, advancing step by step, and Tang Bing was losing ground. At this time, the court had to transfer Xue from Korea as general manager and take the lead in expedition to the western regions. Xue Lingbing went to Tianshan Mountain, and the two armies faced each other. Gui Ren shot three arrows and Hu Ye Xiao Jian escorted six people. He didn't know it was Xue's personal expedition until he asked, but he hurried out. Tang Jun seized the opportunity to kill tens of thousands of prisoners and captured Hu Ye's brother. Since then, he has settled in the west. This is recorded in the history book: "The general's three arrows set the Tianshan Mountains, and the strong man Long Songren crossed the Han Pass."
Xue led troops to defend the border many times in the Tang Dynasty and achieved brilliant results. He was named commander of the right army, general Ben Wei and Pingyang Gong, and enjoyed a life of 70 years. After his death, he was named General Zuo and Governor of Youzhou.
