In the era of great strife, social turmoil, and heroes vying for supremacy, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was on the verge of collapse and precarious. In the third year of King Zhou Shenliang's reign, Luoyang City was deserted and overgrown with weeds. The bustling scene of the Zhou Dynasty's resurgence had long since disappeared. The armor is infested with lice, and all the surnames have died. White bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crow for thousands of miles. One of the hundreds of things left behind by the living people will break people's hearts just thinking about it. An unprecedented epidemic dealt a fatal blow to the Zhou Dynasty. Diseases were everywhere, wars continued, fields were empty, people fled, countries were closed, and the country was in chaos. There was no time to care about the lives of the people, resulting in the epidemic being unable to be controlled, and the scope expanded to In the South China Sea, every family is suffering from the pain of a dead body, and every room is crying and mourning. In the past few decades, all living people have been wiped out, and everyone is still alive. Doctors organized by the private sector are treating the illnesses of the people.
Today, the sun is scorching the sky, and the air is filled with a rotten smell. The seven-star ladybug family leads the ants into the mountains to collect herbs. Nowadays, the little ant is already in its frail years, its adoptive father and adoptive mother are old, and it has to do all the heavy lifting by itself. He went into the mountains early in the morning carrying a bamboo basket and put the collected herbs in the bamboo basket. After returning home, he ground the herbs into very fine pieces and found the Dragonfly family to prepare for going out. Burning mugwort to drive away evil spirits, the once prosperous town is now desolate, overgrown with weeds, and has lost the vitality it once had. Scattering medicinal herbs into well water for people to drink can control the spread of the epidemic.
At this time, the rebels arrived and slaughtered the people in the town. Their swords were stained with blood and their hisses were heard. The adoptive father, the adoptive mother, and Dragonfly stepped forward to advocate for the people. These rebels don't know how to reason. They kill insects whenever they see them and go on a killing spree. The adoptive father stood up and said: "You slaughtered the people and showed no conscience, and you will be punished in the future." These words completely angered the officer. In anger, he pulled out his sword and stabbed the adoptive father and the adoptive mother to death. Dragonfly was also killed at the same time. . "Adoptive father, adoptive mother, Uncle Dragonfly," Little Ant rushed forward and knelt down to hug the adoptive mother. Tears fell on the adoptive mother's cheek. The adoptive father and Dragonfly were lying in a pool of blood, while the adoptive mother died on the little ant's side. In arms. He looked up at the rioters around him angrily. These were Qin soldiers who had fled back from defeat. They picked up the weapons on the ground and stood up to look at them. Their foster father and foster mother had a mortal hatred. At this time, Xiao Yi just wants to avenge his parents. He ran quickly into the insurgents and slashed wildly. These insurgents were immediately scattered into pieces. The officer hurriedly kicked him out, causing the ants to fly out and hit the ground, dust hitting his face. The officers and soldiers surrounded him and said, "Boy, you are looking for death." He drew his sword and was about to stab him when a cold arrow was shot from behind. The arrow pierced him and he fell down. Xiao Yi stood up, arrows flew in, and all these rebels fell down.
An army appeared in front of it. Standing on the chariot were the Prince Division and General Ma Liang of the Termite Tribe. The Prince's Master got off the chariot and stepped forward, asking: "Boy, what kind of insects are they?" Little Ant first looked up at the Prince's Master, then looked down at the dead foster father, foster mother and Uncle Dragonfly, and then said: "They are all My relatives, foster father, foster mother and uncle dragonfly, they came down the mountain to treat the people's diseases. Who knew, who knew...?" At this point, tears fell again. The prince's master said: "You have to express your condolences, I will avenge you." Then he looked at its whole body and said: "You are from the ant tribe, right." The little ant just nodded silently. The prince's master asked again: "Can you join my army and kill the enemy to repay your merits?" The little ant said: "Please allow me to cure the diseases of the people here." Then his adoptive father, adoptive mother and Uncle Dragonfly were buried together. Some of the people were suffering from diseases and the fire burned them. Xiao Yi stood in front of the monument, not shedding a single tear, but just watching silently. When it has been hurt many times, there is no heart to be hurt; when it has been shed many times, there are no tears to shed. The prince's master stood aside and asked, "Young man, what's your name?" Xiao Yi stood in front of the stele, his eyes always looking at the stele. He said: "When I was little, grandpa always called me Xiaoyi, so you can call me Xiaoyi." The prince's master nodded and said, "My military camp is ten miles out of the city. If anything happens, you can come to me." Xiaoyi saluted and stood up. , said: "Excuse me." Xiao Yi knew the etiquette in this way, and knew that it was not a small family, but a big family. He was very pleased and asked: "Who is your grandfather?" Xiao Yi replied: "The Ant clan Clan elder." Then he left. The prince's master looked at its departing figure and sighed: "The ants are more resourceful than I can be. It's enough that I can teach such a generous grandson."
Xiao Yi returned to the epidemic area, isolated the people according to the severity of their illness, and burned the dead people together. He squatted down to boil the medicine, tasted the medicine for the people, and then fed them. The condition of the people improved and the epidemic was quickly brought under control. And he poured the herbs into the well water, so that all the people could drink the water from the well. The cured people gathered together, tied up the grass and insects, and drove away the plague together. The epidemic was basically under control, and it was time for it to go. On this day, people crowded the streets to see him off; on this day, their eyes filled with tears. The child stood in front of the big insect. The little ant knelt down and touched its little face, then stood up and turned around to leave. The little girl ran forward and called: "Brother Xiao Yi." When Xiao Yi turned around, the little girl ran in front of him. Xiao Yi squatted down, and the little girl hung the amulet on her neck and said, "Mom said, it can protect you." Xiao Yi said softly, "Listen to mom more and go back. "The old insect squeezed out, stood in front of the insects, looked around, and said: "Little ant, if you encounter difficulties on the road, you can come back. This is your home." The little ant nodded silently, and then said: " You all go back." He took a few steps back, bowed his hands, turned around and left, disappearing into the overgrown weeds.
The prince's division camped ten miles away from the village, ready for war at any time, and the war was imminent. Soldiers are trained day and night, war horses shuttle, and military formations are practiced. Beating drums will lead to marching into battle, and ringing gold will lead to retreat and truce. At this time, Xiao Yi happened to arrive at the military camp and stood watching for a while. He was stopped by the soldiers guarding outside the camp and said, "Who are you? Who are you looking for?" Xiao Yi stood in front of them and said, "Master Jun" , just say that Xiao Yi came to see Mr. Baizhen." The soldiers came in to report, and after a while the Prince's Division came out of the camp to greet them, saying: "Xiao Yi, you are finally here." Then he led Xiao Yi to the training ground to watch the soldiers' drills, and asked "How do you think these soldiers are practicing?" Xiao Yi looked at it and said: "The battle between the two armies focuses on working together. The brave one wins, and the battlefield should be constantly changing." After hearing this, the prince's division was very pleased and said: "Okay. You are General Ma Liang's deputy general, and you will make suggestions in the army. What do you think?" Xiao Yi knelt down and said: "Sir, I would like to lead an army to insert into the enemy's center. If the center is in chaos, sir, I can lead a large army to attack. Enter, and the enemy army will collapse." It refused to serve as a deputy general in the army, but directly asked for battle. The prince's division asked: "How many troops and horses do you have?" Xiao Yi replied readily: "Half a million elite soldiers are enough." The prince's division was shocked after hearing this and said: "The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, you have to think carefully." ." But the little ant said firmly: "I just want to kill the enemy on the battlefield, and life and death have long been ignored." The prince smiled, patted it on the shoulder, and said: "The young ant is full of energy, and has the character of your grandfather. , I will take credit for you after the war." Set off with the army.
The young general stood on the tower and watched for the army to appear, then he quickly returned to the termite royal city. At this time, General Stinger was in the court hall. The young general said: "General, the enemy army has marched towards Qingshi Beach." General Stinger turned around and said: "The army has marched towards Qingshi Beach and is approaching the royal city. Please ask the king for your ruling." The Termite King began to panic and stood still, saying: " General, please send troops to Qingshitan." General Stinger said: "My garrison is less than one hundred thousand, and most of the elite have returned home. I also ask the king to recruit an army of one million to fight the enemy." King Termite panicked: "The general is right. "Then he set his sights on Xiang Guo and said, "Where is Xiang Guo?" Xiang Guo stood up and said, "I am here." At this time, the Termite King staggered down, sat on the steps, and said, "Hurry up. Go and recruit an army of millions to defend the capital." Then he lowered his head, looked at General Stinger calmly for a while, and said, "General, do you think this is okay?" General Stinger raised his head high and said arrogantly: "Army Yes, money and food are very important." The Termite King was very upset, and suddenly smiled and said: "Okay, the money and food will be ready," and shouted: "Qian and Liang Officer." The Qian and Liang Officer stood up and said: "How much food is left in the treasury? ?” The money and grain officer was very embarrassed and said: “Your Majesty, we have been fighting for years in recent years, and there is not much money and grain.” The termite king said: “If you don’t have it, tax it from the people, as much as you can. Kill those who resist the tax, and kill them to serve as a warning to others.” Then he shouted again. Said: "Where is Si Tian?" Si Tian stood up and said: "Your Majesty." The Termite King said: "Send troops to various places to collect food. They must be sent to General Stinger's military camp before the war." General Stinger walked away with a wave of his sleeves. . The Termite King looked up at General Stinger walking out. He couldn't breathe, and cried bitterly, saying: "You think, what do you think of being alone in their eyes? Is he still a king?" The eunuch burst into tears and said: "My king!" The Termite King said It looked up to the sky and howled, saying: "It's hard for this great king to be alone!" Then he tried to get up, but unfortunately his legs were not strong enough and he was helped up by the eunuchs on both sides. The termite king faced left and right and said: "I know, I can't tell the ministers the pain in my heart. I can only tell you. You are the only ones I believe." The eunuchs wiped away their tears and said: "Your Majesty, we know the pain in your heart. Ah!" The termite king waved his hand and said: "That's it, that's all, let's not talk about it anymore, Gu is just a puppet, a puppet at their mercy."
