Xiao Yi turned around and said: "Behead!" The wizard knelt in front of the people, the long knife behind him fell, and blood spurted out. The onlookers beat their chests, knelt down and climbed up. Their psychological defenses suddenly collapsed, shouting: "Oh God! Oh God!" Xiao Yi stood on the altar and said: "No one can save you now, save you." You are the only one. The little ant has prayed to the sky for rain, and nectar will surely fall after midnight. If you are here, little ant, if the nectar cannot fall after three quarters to midnight tonight and save the people, then I will sacrifice it with my head." Zi Zheng turned around and looked at Xiao Yi who was standing on the altar, and called out: "Sir." Xiao Yi took the little girl's hand and walked down the altar, saying: "The hearts of parents in the world are pitiful. Is there any parent who can't do this? Where are your children who love you so much?" Xiao Yi let go of her hand, knelt down and gently comforted her, saying: "Go, go back to your parents." The mother held the little girl tightly in her arms and cried. It is shouting to heaven and earth. At this time, the little girl began to cry loudly in her mother's arms. The little girl's father looked at Xiao Yi, along with his mother and daughter, and said, "Let's kowtow to our husband quickly." Xiao Yi first helped the little girl's father up and said, "You must look at your daughter carefully. This is your flesh and blood! Is it a demon? The theory of strange powers and gods is unbelievable!" The little girl's father began to bury his head and stopped talking. The little ant just patted its shoulder gently, and then slowly moved forward. He walked away, turned around and said, "You all should go back."
Xiao Yi walked back to the city, looking very worried. The disciples followed behind him and sat under the big locust tree in the garden of the general's mansion. It gradually became dark until late at night. Zizheng and Ziwen stood in the courtyard, bowed and said, "Sir." Xiao Yi stood up and said in return, "Zizheng, Ziwen, why haven't you fallen asleep yet?" Zizheng stepped forward and asked, "We I can't sleep because I'm worried about my husband. Sir, will it rain tonight?" Xiao Yi looked up at the night sky and said, "It depends on God's will. If God wants my life, take it. I, Xiao Yi, have no complaints. No regrets." Ziwen knelt down and looked at Xiaoyi, with tears streaming down his eyes, and said: "Sir." Zizheng stood beside Ziwen, then knelt down and said: "If God wants to kill you, let me go. Pay it back." The little ant looked at them and said, "Zizheng, Ziwen, get up." Then he said, "The time has not come yet, how can you say such depressing words?" All the disciples walked out, They all knelt in front of Xiao Yi, looked up at Xiao Yi and said, "Sir, if he committed suicide and apologized to the world because he couldn't pray for rain, the disciples would not be willing to live in this world and suffer collective martyrdom." Xiao Yi looked at them and said: "You all get up." All the disciples shouted together: "Sir." The little ant looked at them and said: "I want to say one thing to you. How can a real man talk about life and death lightly when he is standing between heaven and earth? You still have a long way to go. , there are still many things that you need to do in the future. A true man must establish the world with faith, you must remember it." The disciples said: "All disciples have taken note of it."
In Xiao Yi's bedroom, the cockroach soldier stood up, looked outside the door, casually took out the dagger placed under the pillow, pulled out the dagger and hid it behind the door, peeking out. I saw Xiao Yi sitting under the big locust tree in the courtyard in front of all the disciples. Suddenly he rushed out from behind the door, took out a dagger and stabbed Xiao Yi, and said viciously: "Go to hell." Xiao Yi grabbed the dagger with one hand. The disciples present were stunned, stood up and shouted : "Sir." Zizheng walked up angrily, pulled out the long sword from his waist, and said: "You ungrateful thing, I will definitely kill you." The little ant said: "Zizheng, don't be rude, you Back off." Zizheng said unconvinced, "Sir." Xiao Yi said, "Don't you even listen to Mr.'s words? Back off." Xiao Yi grabbed the dagger with his bare hands, and blood dripped drop by drop. , threw the dagger to the ground, and pushed out the cockroach soldier with the other hand. Controlling the anger in his heart, he turned to ask with a smile: "Why do you want to assassinate me?" The Cockroach Soldier said stubbornly: "Since I am in your hands, I will kill you if I want to, no need to say more. Zizheng had a bad temper and couldn't control the anger in his heart. He immediately stood up and walked on the road: "Okay, I will help you today." Xiao Yi looked at Zizheng and said, "Zizheng, don't be rude." Zizheng Unable to get angry, he stamped his feet angrily and left. Ziwen looked at Zizheng and called out: "Zizheng." The little ant said: "Don't worry about it, let it calm down for a while, maybe it won't be so restless." Then he faced the cockroach soldier and said: "It seems that your injury has improved, you can go." The Cockroach Soldier stood in front of Xiao Yi and said, "I have a question to ask sir." Xiao Yi said with a kind face: "What's the matter? Just ask the question." The cockroach soldier asked: "Why did you save me, sir?" Xiao Yi just replied: "For the people of the two countries." Then the cockroach soldier was completely convinced, knelt down and bowed three times, got up and left. .
Xiao Yi turned around and looked towards Zizheng's room. It seemed that he cared about Zizheng very much. He stood up and slowly walked into Zizheng's room, opened the door and said, "Zizheng." Zizheng turned around and pretended to ignore him. . Xiao Yi stood behind Zizheng and said: "Zizheng, sir, I know you are still complaining about me, sir, I don't blame you. You are a righteous insect, and you can't tolerate a grain of sand in your eyes. Sir, I know you are good to me." "Shang Fu broke in and said happily: "Sir, it's raining, it's raining." Xiao Yi turned around and said in surprise: "Shang Fu, what did you say?" Shang Fu knelt down in front of Xiao Yi and said, "Sir, It’s raining, it’s raining.” Xiao Yi immediately helped Shang Fu up and said, “Let’s go.”
Today, Xiao Yi was very happy and ran out, followed by Shang Fu, saying: "Sir, please slow down." At this time, Xiao Yi was like a child, turning around and saying: "Shang Fu, please hurry up. It’s raining.” Not to mention how happy I was. Zizheng immediately turned around and ran out, saying: "Sir, sir, it's raining." Xiao Yi stood in the rain, nodded and said: "Yes, it's raining." Zi Sang stepped forward and pulled Zizheng down, saying: "Zi Yes, you come down too." They shouted and sang in the rain! Jump! Singing and dancing. The little ant looked at them, smiling from ear to ear, and said: "Okay, okay." Tears often appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he was crying with joy. Kneel down and look up at the night sky, shouting: "Heaven! Our people are saved! We are saved!" Then he bowed three times. Zizheng stepped forward to help Xiao Yi and said, "Sir." Xiao Yi looked at Zizheng and said, "Zizheng, it's raining. Our people are saved! I want to recite a poem." All the disciples stood around Xiao Yi. , listening to the little ants chanting poems, and said:
"Bow your head three times and look at the words of the sky. One prays for nectar, and the other prays for blessings. All the people look up to the yellow islet. The mist surrounds the mulberry elm. The common people are saved, and heaven calls. Sing to praise it, and heaven and earth will bless you. China is nourishing. , thousands of lives are nourished. Congratulations to all nations from all over the world."
General Dao Yan walked out and said: "Sir, you recited a good poem." Little Yi stood in the rain and said: "It's a gift from God, a gift from God. It's raining, and our people are saved! We are saved!" General Dao Yan He was also very happy and celebrated, saying: "Thanks to Mr.'s prayer for rain, it's raining!"
The people in the city rushed out and cheered: "It's raining! It's raining! The crops in the fields can be saved!" These people all knelt down and shouted: "God, we people all want to thank you." One of them The old man stood up and said, "If we want to thank you, let's go and thank you sir. Mr. Xingyi knew that it was going to rain after midnight. We all blamed him wrongly. It was he who helped me pray for a good rain. Mr. is our insect saint!"
General Dao Yan walked up the road and said, "Sir, I have a question for you." Then he bowed and saluted. Xiao Yi stood in front of General Dao Yan and returned the greeting, saying: "General, please allow me to go into the house and change my clothes. You see, all my clothes are soaked." General Dao Yan said, "Okay, I Just wait for sir at the door. Sir, please go in first." Zizheng stepped forward and joked: "Our sir! He looks like a drowned rat." Ziwen tried to dissuade him: "Zizheng, you still have the same temper, you can't be like this. Talk about sir." Zizheng lowered his head and said: "Sir, I have realized my mistake again." Xiao Yi said happily: "If Zizheng changes his nature, he will not be the original Zizheng. Zizheng has a clear distinction between love and hatred. That's right." These words made the general standing aside laugh out loud. It turned out that their master and apprentice were so interesting and humorous. Ziwen stood behind General Dao Yan and said, "Our husband was assassinated just now." After hearing this, General Dao Yan looked at Xiao Yi with a surprised expression and said, "Sir, what's going on with you?" Xiao Yi He just said: "No problem, no problem." Zi Wen said: "It's not the cockroach soldier, the cockroach soldier who was saved by sir, but sir let it go." General Dao Yan said with some self-blame: "Yes It was a moment of negligence on my part. Sir, I will send heavy troops to guard this place to protect your safety." Xiao Yi scolded Ziwen and said, "Ziwen, you are very calm in your work. This is not something you can say. The general is busy with military and political affairs, aren't you adding to the chaos?" Ziwen immediately saluted and said, "Sir, I understand that I was wrong." Ziwen apologized to General Daoyan and said, "General, Ziwen should not distract you. Ziwen realizes his mistake." General Dao Yan consoled him: "Ziwen is also concerned about your safety, it's only natural for insects." Then he looked at the little ant and said, "Sir, I'd better tell you a story about a farmer and a snake. Well. Once upon a time there was a farmer who was as kind as his husband. There was a frozen poisonous snake in the snow, which aroused the farmer's compassion. He put the frozen snake in his arms and used his own body temperature to apply heat. The poisonous snake He rescued him, but the farmer was bitten to death by a poisonous snake. Sir, this cockroach soldier is a Chinese wolf. Sir, you should not have saved it in the first place." The little ant said: "In the beginning of insects, their nature is good, and the world All things have their goodness, and a benevolent person loves all things, just like the nourishment of the earth. A general should have such a mind, even enemies and insects are willing to come and surrender to you." General Dao Yan bowed and saluted: "Sir, I have learned the lesson." Xiao Yi said, "General, please wait for a moment." General Dao Yan said, "Okay, I will wait here for your husband to come out."
After the little ant walked in, General Dao Yan faced his disciples and said: "Sir, he is the great scholar of our Zhao Kingdom. You must protect him and not cause any harm." Zizheng and Ziwen stepped forward and said: "Okay, general, please rest assured, we will protect you." Xiao Yi changed into new clothes, stood in front of the bronze mirror, straightened his clothes, and then walked out, saying: "General, we can go."
The two insects stood in front of the door of the general's mansion, stretched out their hands and said respectfully: "Sir, please!" Little Yi also became humble and said: "General, please go first." General Dao Yan stood aside and said very humbly: " Because you are a gentleman with high morals and high respect. I respect you, so I should invite you first." Xiao Yi said, "You are a general, and I am a commoner, so the general should invite you first." General Dao Yan couldn't refuse. Said: "Sir, if you insist on doing this, I can't postpone anything, so I'd better obey your order respectfully." Xiao Yi stood aside and said: "General, please go first."
General Dao Yan entered the mansion first, followed by Xiao Yi. After General Dao Yan entered the general's mansion, he turned around and said, "Sir, please take a seat first." Xiao Yi was sitting in front of several tables on the side before General Dao Yan walked up and sat down. After General Dao Yan sat down, he looked at the little ant and said happily: "Sir, you are really amazing." The little ant said: "The general is too complimentary. The little ant only knew that it will rain after midnight today after observing the sky." Dao Yan The general asked: "How did you know that it will rain after midnight today?" Xiao Yi looked at General Daoyan and explained: "Xiao Yi was on the rain praying altar, looking at the sky, and found that there were clouds in the sky. There are often moist winds blowing in the air. The moisture on the ground rises. At midnight, the temperature drops slightly, and there are strong winds. I know that it will rain after midnight today." General Dao Yan was deeply moved after hearing this. Expressing admiration, he said: "Sir, you are truly one of the most extraordinary talents in our Zhao country, a rare talent that can only be seen in a hundred years. Your knowledge is profound, so you can stay in our Zhao country. I will recommend you to the king as Yaqing. Sir, you know astronomy. If you know geography well, you can make great contributions to our Zhao country. Sir, are you willing?" Xiao Yi said: "There is no such thing as a banquet in the world. If there is a fate, Xiao Yi will meet the general again." General Dao Yan said: " I hope so."
