Chapter 56 - General Palace (1)

Some people say that when a child grows up to be one or two years old, it is possible to remember things.

However, I can be more accurate to say that this sentence is a sick sentence and not complete. The child's so-called memory can only remember one side of the scene. As for the specific matter, he simply can't remember or explain it clearly.

It was like a two year old child suddenly seeing a fire in his house, and then the people in the room began to scream. This shocking scene would forever remain in the child's mind.

But if you ask him, how on earth did that fire start and how did it go out in the end? He might not be able to clearly explain the entire sequence of events, and could not record the entire process from beginning to end.

So how old is it that a man can begin to record things in their entirety?

I don't know!

I've never studied it. At least, I only know that when a child is six or seven years old, he will definitely be able to remember it, because everything that happened in this room is in the mind of this old man.

A few decades ago, before the reforms opened, there was a big family in this place.

This family's territory is extremely vast, and not just the courtyard we are currently in, even the hospital is the center of it. The surrounding area of a hundred miles all belongs to their family.

And the reason why they had such a large area of land was because this family's ancestor was once a hero during the Warring States Era. They were known as the Changsheng.

As for what this Changsheng had accomplished in the past, there were no detailed records in the history. All that was known was that the Kaiser had given this land to the Changsheng back then, allowing his family to set up camp here.

In this way, the family passed down from generation to generation, multiplying and reproducing here until the changes of the times welcomed China's modern reform.

During the Cultural Revolution, they fought against landowners and divided the land, and the General Palace became one of the first targets. When the people from the General Palace heard this news, they immediately scattered and took out valuable treasures to wander around the world.

Following the changes of the times, the most boisterous General Palace became the talk of the town in the blink of an eye, amidst a flood of history.

When this person's heart was in pieces, there was a group of people in the General Palace who would rather defend the General Palace with their lives than leave it for even half a step! This group of people were not afraid of losing the property of the General Palace, but rather, they were afraid of losing the dignity of the General Palace.

The Changsheng had reared and flourished for hundreds of years in this land, a place where they had once achieved brilliant achievements, a proof that their family had once risen to prominence. As the saying went, as a person, one must not forget their roots, and this land was their foundation.

There were about a dozen or so people in this group. They were the doyens of the General Palace, and the majority of their family members were all surnamed Lin.

During the process of fighting against the landlord, he had bumped into the Red Guards several times, and they were unable to determine the victor. These people were willing to die just like that, putting in all their effort to resist, causing the General Mansion, which was originally planned to win in a month, to spend three years time without moving an inch.

And in this General Palace, the leader of the show was not a brave general, but a woman. Her name was Lin Mei Jing.

Lin Meijing, who had the blood of the old General flowing in his body, was directly related to his. His bones were filled with the arrogance of the General, and he would rather die than submit. He was normally kind to others, but once it involved someone invading the General Palace, he would suddenly become stronger than men! Among them, killing the enemy was a meritorious deed.

As a result, when many people saw Lin Meiming, they immediately gave her the nickname 'Mother Yaksha'. Those who had never seen her before thought that this Lin Meiming was definitely a shrew, or a fiendish demon with a green face and fangs. The Lin Family members knew that this Lin Meiming was nicknamed 'Mother Yaksha', but she looked like the Seven Fairies.
