A thousand-mile horse will never say that it can travel thousands of miles in a day, and the great sun will never say that it can illuminate all things.
Smart people never ask for a verbal promise. Sometimes, the answer is wrong or there is no answer, but in fact, the answer has already been answered.
As the New Year was approaching, Liu Yi did not stay in the Zhao Mansion for long. He sobered up the next day and said goodbye to Zhao Yao, preparing to return to Lingyuan City to spend a peaceful year. After breaking five years, Liu Yi immediately set off for Bozhou to climb Tianshan Mountain and collect musical instruments.
When leaving, Zhao Yao did not ride a horse, but only held Zhao Sujian, lowered his posture, and bid farewell to Liu Yi at the door.
Liu Yi and Zhao Yao, one was young and inexperienced, the other was not good at talking. When they parted, they had thousands of things to say but couldn't figure it out. laugh.
After stopping laughing, Zhao Yao said boldly to Liu Yi, "I know your Majesty's intentions well. Forty years ago, I was willing to sacrifice my life to serve the country. Today, I am also willing to use the Zhao family's meager land to create the first flat land in the world."
Liu Yi didn't expect that things would go so smoothly. He was so excited that he couldn't express it in words. It wasn't until Qiao Miaoqing lightly pinched Liu Yi's waist that Liu Yi came back to his senses and said passionately, "Master Zhao knows the general principles and understands the righteousness. The younger generation admires it, if all the families in the world are as loyal to the state affairs as the Xuanhuai Zhao family, why would your Majesty bother to cut off the family?"
Zhao Yao nodded his head honestly and said sincerely, "After your Excellency leaves, I will put up the seal and seal the gold, and resign from the post of Xuanhuai County Magistrate. I will stay in the fields for the time being until the times change."
Liu Yi heard Zhao Yao's overtones clearly.
If Liu Yi's trip to the north was in vain and he failed to retrieve the piano insect and rescue Zhao Yao's foolish son, Zhao Yao would definitely come out of the mountain again. Otherwise, Zhao Yao would hide in the world and never care about the world again.
Therefore, Liu Yi secretly made up his mind that this was the beginning of Pingtian's battle. Even if he was not very sure about Tianchi and his party, he would still have to fight hard, or at worst risk his life. Then he was full of ambition, cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, we will live up to your trust! The worst that can happen is that your soul will be buried in Tianshan Mountain!"
"Hahaha! I remember the young man riding a bamboo horse, and in the blink of an eye he was a white-headed man again. Young people always like to speak eloquently, which is a sacred object. How can you get it at will." Zhao Yao laughed and joked, "Pingtian ordered the young man to be an official, and his future is boundless. There is no need to risk your life for the sake of the dog. However, we must say something ugly beforehand. If you can't get the piano insect back, sir, I will never give back this water droplet."
Liu Yi was ashamed and turned the small wooden hairpin on his head awkwardly, "That's natural, that's natural."
Old Zhao Yao nodded and said sincerely, "I have no words to say goodbye. Your Majesty also does not allow me to send troops to see you off. After much thought, I will give you a treasure here. I hope you will accept it."
Then, Zhao Yao pulled out an old rag bag from behind and handed it to Liu Yi. Liu Yi unfolded it and saw that it was an old Luo shirt.
Seeing this, Liu Yi couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He saw that the pattern of the Luo shirt was finely embroidered with seven different colors of silk thread using the lock embroidery method. A colorful tiger has four legs in the wind, its tail is raised high, its teeth and claws are open, and it pounces on the big dragon in front, while the big dragon is resisting; in the middle of the pattern, a phoenix wears a flower crown on its head, its body is curled up, and its feet are on small dragons. It has an extraordinary temperament. , slow but powerful. The trinity of dragon, phoenix and tiger is novel in conception, vivid in image and unique in style. Just from the appearance of the ancient Luo shirt, people feel that this is something extraordinary.
Liu Yi touched Luo Shan, and a cool and bone-chilling breath instantly lingered all over his body. The smell of alcohol and fatigue from last night's journey were swept away. Liu Yi couldn't help but exclaimed that he was happy. He immediately raised his head and looked at Zhao Yao and said, " Mr. Zhao, why is this a treasure?”
Zhao Yao smiled and said, "How is it? Does it make you feel refreshed?"
Liu Yi spontaneously praised, "This thing is truly a divine product in the world!"
"This is a Zen robe embroidered with dragons, phoenixes and tiger patterns from the Chu State during the Warring States Period. The owner of this thing has been unable to be found. It was a gift from my ancestor when I came out of the mountains. Wearing this shirt can ward off evil spirits and protect you from the evil in the world. Ghost intrusion." Zhao Yao chuckled and said honestly, "This effect is very mysterious. It is up to you to decide whether you believe it or not. However, the old man and the young man have been on the battlefield for six years and have left countless ghosts under their command, but they have not had a nightmare every night. I don't know. Is it because I have a generous heart or is this Luo Shan mysterious? Hahaha!"
Liu Yi transcended Luo Shan and said to Zhao Yao, "Being able to send tens of millions of people through the gate of hell is a kind of grace in the world!"
"Hahaha! You little devil, you still have to curry favor with me for this kind of thing!"
Zhao Yao laughed loudly, and then said to Liu Yi, "The sword is given to the hero. I hope this shirt will bless you to success!"
Liu Yi hurriedly declined, "Mr. Zhao, I dare not accept such a human treasure so easily."
Zhao Yao said sternly, "The journey is difficult. If you have more cards, you will have more protection. Take it, not only for you, but also for my son."
Liu Yi no longer had any reason to refuse, so he hurriedly accepted the gift, and to show his joy, he immediately put it on under the cotton lining, but thought in his heart: The old man is quite kind, I will give you the water-proof beads, you will give me the precious Luo shirt, you and I It's only right to reciprocate! If we could meet again, it would be great to give this Zen robe to the bald man.
Thinking of this, Liu Yi's eyes showed a touch of tenderness: Yi Xian, I don't know how you are living in Bozhou. If you are not living well, I will be very sad.
Zhao Yao saw the subtle changes in Liu Yi's eyes, thinking that his 'sincerity' had impressed the young man, and cheered in his heart: You kid, you are still too young.
However, sighs are sighs. After only one day together, Zhao Yao took a new look at the young man in front of him, but there was always a knot in his heart. He couldn't express his displeasure. Zhao Yao's eyes drifted, and finally he fixed his eyes on Liu Yi and said, "Master Liu, we will be farewell today, I am." I have two things to advise you.”
Liu Yi said softly, "I sincerely follow Master Zhao's teachings."
Old Zhao Yao said with great sincerity, "First of all, the ancients said that a pure heart can cure the root cause, and a straight way can lead to personal planning. Adults have clever minds and wisdom. You should learn more about today's world and deal with things with yin and yang. Only then can you succeed in the great road. If you care about everything and take steps, Calculate every step..."
Old Zhao Yao smiled and shook his head slightly. The meaning was self-evident. He paused and continued, "Secondly, your Excellency became an official at a young age, which shows that you are talented and knowledgeable. However, my life also has limits, and I have no knowledge." Ya. I also hope that you will not forget to learn and always think about the lessons."
Liu Yi bowed sincerely and smiled freely, "Junior, you have been taught a lesson and let's go!"
Zhao Yao slightly cupped his hands and said, "I wish you a speedy return."
...
Liu Yi and his party returned to Xuanhuai City, packed their bags, and left through the north gate, preparing to return to Lingyuan City.
On the top of Xuanhuai City, a man with a face wrapped in red brocade and red eyes was standing side by side with Zhang Youxia, the meritorious official of Xuanhuai County. The two looked at Liu Yi and his team of more than 60 people, with solemn expressions and eyes. The blood-red man had murderous intent in his eyes, as if he had an eternal hatred for Liu Yi.
After a while, the man with eyes as scarlet as lanterns raised his hand slightly, patted Zhang Youxia's head hard with the scabbard in his hand, and said coldly, "Zhang Youxia, if Liu Yi can be buried at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, next year, Xuanhuai County Magistrate , surnamed Zhang."
Zhang Youxia's body trembled unconsciously, her eyes showing heat and desire.
...
After everything was done and they were on their way home, Liu Yi and the others relaxed a little and talked to each other about their past.
Liu Yi sat firmly on his horse and told several stories about his travels to the three counties. The Fan brothers, Gongsun sisters and brothers, and the Le family thieves all flowed out of his mouth one by one. The Qiling Gang, Shuiheguan, and Momen all fell into decline. He said that the quieter God became and the more Taoist he became, the sadder his heart became. In the end, he simply grinned and turned the conversation to Wang Dali.
Wang Dali told some old stories about Lingyuan, including how Liu Huo hid treasures in the Lingyuan Mountains before his death, how all the ferocious beasts in the Lingyuan Mountains disappeared overnight at the end of last year, how the innocent soul of Mr. Mou in Nancheng often went to the countryside to seek his life, etc. . At the end of the day, the honest and honest man actually swore that what he said was true, which made everyone feel anxious. Huangfu Lu, who was a little timid, actually felt chills running down his spine and broke out in cold sweats.
When it was the turn of the brainless girl Qiao Miaoqing, she opened her mouth and said, "The Tiger Gang is invincible", and then a hero was selected from some gang, Guan Yu in a free match, Ying Dang in a powerful match, Nie in the sword crown, Jing Ke in a brave battle, and so on. , even she herself felt that if there were no tiger-blaming gangs in the world, there would be no great romance in the world.
Huangfu Lu and Ying Cheng had never been in the martial arts world before, so they were entranced by what they heard. After talking to Qiao Miaoqing, they suddenly realized that it was too late to meet Qiao Miaoqing. If Liu Yi hadn't stopped them, they almost worshiped Qiao Miaoqing on the top of the mountain. He and Qiao Miaoqing are going back to the Huhu Gang. m.
Along the way, the one who talked the most was probably Yang Liu, who had been traveling around the world for many years. This young master of the Lingyuan Escort Bureau talked about everything from scolding tigers to butterfly chrysalis, from Baihu Villa to Luojia Temple, from Huanyuefu talks about Jie Binglin, from Wudang to Yijian Pavilion, Jile Fengdu, Yashengting, Silkworm, from Xuanhuai County to the foot of Yanshan Mountain.
Yanshan was originally an unknown low mountain, located at the junction of Fengyi County and Xuanhuai County. After passing this mountain, it was the territory of Fengyi Huang family. Back then, Xuanhuai Zhao family and Fengyi Huang family had a tacit understanding. The land gave up the mountain, and no one had any further interference, and named it Yanshan, which means "the flags and drums have ceased".
When Liu Yi and his party arrived at this mountain, it happened to be getting late, so they decided to set up camp and return home tomorrow.
Wang Dali and Yang Liu are both veterans of the world. Under the control of the two, in a short while, at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, there were camps, bonfires, figures, and stars.
Some sergeants caught a few Maodong hares. After a good meal, they were about to go to sleep. A sharp "enemy attack" sound came from the forest outside the camp. Before anyone could react, hundreds of rockets fired instantly. Those who flew from the south and failed to enter the tent all fell down and wailed in an instant.
On the top of the mountain in the north of Yanshan Mountain, torches were densely packed and connected in series. When Liu Yi came out of his tent, he saw that the enemies from the north and south were at least ten times as big as me. He couldn't help but feel horrified: Looking at this scene, the enemy has already laid an ambush here. It seems that someone wants to tonight Let him die here!
Before everyone had time to think too much, the second wave of rockets came in response. Wang Dali grabbed two wounded soldiers and placed them beside Liu Yi. He decisively shouted "raise your shields". A group of well-trained county soldiers immediately raised their shields and held them. Liu Yi and others were wrapped in it. Due to the decisive and quick defense, Liu Yi suffered very few casualties after this dense wave of rockets.
The county soldiers and escorts who had been sieved on the ground really made Liu Yi feel heartbroken and guilty. These people suffered unreasonable disasters because of him, and he felt really guilty. These people were the foundation of his fortune, but they died on the way home, which is really heartbreaking. Heartache.
Who is the person who wants my life?
Some people died, but not completely...
