Twenty-two days have passed, and the corpses littering the streets and alleys of Beiye City have been pulled outside the city and buried, the ruins have been torn down, and the blood stains on the ground have long been washed away.
Beiye City is no longer the Beiye City of the past.
This outlying city, which connects the north to the south and the east to the west, now has less than 30,000 people left, and broken tiles from burnt beams are piled everywhere in the city waiting to be transported away. At dawn, I saw groups of Jue soldiers pushing and pulling wooden carts back and forth on the road, leaving with full loads and returning empty.
Beiye City stands from south to north. Mu Danqing led his army and stationed in the north of the city. Fifty thousand soldiers worked day and night to dig 210,000 graves in the west of the city. They cleared out the decayed corpses scattered throughout the city and transported them to them for burial.
The twenty-one mass graves are all separated by short fences. There are white stone tablets on the left and right with red seal characters on them.
On the left: the golden light of merit, slightly opened and dark. The flow of Huachi is really fragrant, and the lotus cover floats with the clouds.
On the right is: the fairy Chong Yuanhe, who usually lives on the twelfth floor. Urgently announce the decree of Lingbao, and travel freely to heaven.
Outside the mass graves, dozens of Taoist priests practice and chant sutras day and night in the hope of comforting the souls of the dead.
Even so, every night, the whole Beiye City still makes a constant "whining" sound everywhere, like resentment, like mourning, like anger, like confusion... Beiye City is no longer the Beiye it used to be. The city is now called a "ghost town" by the world.
Everyone who is a human being has two parts: one is the body, which is called "form", and the other is spirit, which is called "soul".
The soul is attached to the body and can gather the yang energy to become a living person.
When the soul is separated from the body, the yin exists and the yang disappears, and life is destroyed immediately.
The sun is yang, and the earth is yin. Living people tend to the sun, and dead people go to the earth. Therefore, after a person dies, he digs the ground to bury his body and head in a tomb, so that his soul can dwell in the dead.
When the soul is separated from the body and finds no peace, it turns into a ghost, walking around the world at night, floating like willow leaves, invisible like wisps of smoke.
woo woo woo woo... ...
woo woo woo woo... ...
The west wind blew slowly, bringing with it a coolness and a faint smell of corpses. Duanmuchong reined in his horse and stood still under the city gate. He felt the yin energy coming from all around him. Even though he boasted that he had "read all over the world without fear", his scalp was numb. He couldn't help but murmured softly: "That's it, then." It’s not easy!”
"Drive!" Duanmu Chongyang lashed the horse's butt with his whip, and the black knight roared and galloped towards the city.
... ...
The plain one is the original one. The pure mind is the original mind, the pure mind.
With an open heart, laughter is joy. Sadness and joy come from the heart, without distorting one's temperament.
Yun Xiaomeng looked at Yi Qingxin's silly smile and had already guessed it. He couldn't help but feel happy for her. For a moment, he remembered what his master had said to her -
"If you want to practice Su Xin Gong and even Yin martial arts to great perfection, you need to accumulate the Yin Qi in your body. However, once a woman engages in sexual intercourse, she will definitely be contaminated with the Yang Qi in the man's body, causing her own Qi to be Yin. If she is impure, her skills will be greatly reduced. Therefore, for hundreds of years, the successive palace masters of our palace have guarded the virgin body of the jade girl to the death in order to maintain their inner strength. However, why is it that the palace rules passed down from generation to generation do not prohibit the marriage of the disciples? I have hidden After practicing for many years, I discovered that when I was practicing Su Xin Gong, my fellow practitioners had developed a superb qi-guiding technique, which could drain the yang energy from the body and leave only the yin energy, achieving twice the result with half the effort. I thought that maybe when a man and a woman were having sex, the woman secretly By using this skill, you can protect the inner Qi from becoming turbid. I believe that there was such a Qi-guiding technique in the palace hundreds of years ago, but for some unknown reason it was not passed down. Over the decades, I After thinking hard, I finally created a technique to guide Qi. However, there are still some flaws in 'Xuanhuangli' and it is not yet perfect. It's a pity that I... Alas! Xiaomeng, you are still young, and I really miss you. I will stay alone until I grow old."
Wan Wuyue had very few achievements in her life, but when she was alive, she was recognized as the number one master in the world. It's just that she has a cold temperament and has hardly moved around in the world for nearly forty years after she became famous. The world knows very little about her. Even martial arts giants like Yi Qilin only hear her name but never see her.
Yun Xiaomeng became famous in the world in his twenties and became a well-known master in the martial arts world. Even the leader of a big sect like Jin Shenfeng was no match for him, so he obtained the true inheritance of Wang Wuyue. "'Xuanhuangli' is not only a Qi-guiding technique, it is also an extremely powerful internal skill. I have only practiced it for less than ten years, but my progress has far surpassed that of other disciples. However, the use that the master said... ." Yun Xiaomeng thought to himself, "After all, the master created 'Xuanhuangli' well past the age of marriage."
"It would be great if he was not engaged!" Yun Xiaomeng was thinking about it when he heard Yi Qingxin suddenly sigh. Her mind was filled with the hug just now, "This is the second time he hugged me... I knew that Brother Yuanchen was also interested in me."
In terms of family background, the name of the Yi family of Yufeng Escort has long been known in the world; in terms of character, Yi Qingxin is fair-skinned and beautiful, and her graceful figure is the Yi family's treasure that surpasses Yufeng's swordsmanship and Yufeng Escort. , the saying has been spread in the world that "the Yi family has three treasures, and the legitimate daughter is the first."
"Good sister, I don't know whether I should be happy for you or worried for you." Yun Xiaomeng reached out and gently stroked her hair, sighing warmly.
"Crackling... crackling..." There was a burst of firecrackers outside.
July is a single month, and on the first day of the month, wealthy families will set off firecrackers to pray for peace and prosperity, and everything will go well. In double months, firecrackers are set off in anticipation of the sun.
Yun Xiaomeng put the bag on his left shoulder, smiled and said to Yi Qingxin: "It's almost time, Senior Yi should be done with his work, let's go to the front hall!" She knew that Mei Yuanchen must have been waiting there early in the morning.

Duanmu Chong rode up and met several groups of soldiers pushing wooden carriages on the road, but there were no captains or corps commanders among them, let alone centurions.
"Hey, that man, who are you? What are you doing here?" He was about to ask the soldier in front of him where Mu Danqing was, when he heard a shout from behind him.
Duanmuchong turned around and looked back, his face finally showed joy, and he said with a smile: "Finally, I met a damn centurion!" After saying this, he drove his horse forward and showed his badge, and said in a serious voice that Hundred Man, "I am Duan Muchong, the left general of the imperial court. I have something to ask of General Mu. Take me to his camp quickly!"
The Yutingsi is the yamen that guards the imperial court. It has one general, one general, one general, and one general on the left and right. The senior general of the imperial court is Yu Lingyi, who is in charge of the four thousand guards of the Yin Yang Palace. Following him are the Zhonglang General Duanmu Jing, the right general Mu Ju, and the left general Duanmu Chong. These four people are in charge of the last barrier around Duanmu Yu, and they can be said to be the people he trusts the most.
The imperial general is the first-rank military officer, the middle-rank general is the second-rank, the left and right generals are the third-rank, and the centurion in the ordinary military camp is the lowest military rank.
When the centurion heard that the man in front of him said that he was a third-grade military general from the imperial city, he jumped off his horse, walked quickly to Duanmuchong and took a look at his waist badge. He lowered his head and saluted: "Centurion of the military camp of Baishan County." Zhang Houde has met the general. I didn’t know the general’s identity just now and my words were rude. Please forgive me.”
"It's okay. Take me to see General Mu!" Duanmu Chong waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.
Zhang Houde said "yes" and said a few words to the people behind him, then jumped on his horse and rode in front, leading Duanmu Chong towards the camp in the north of the city.
... ...
July has always been called the "ghost month", and the first day of July is the day when the underworld opens. On this day, King Yama will grant amnesty to all parties and release the ghosts from the underworld to visit relatives and friends in the human world.
People set off firecrackers on this day to pray for blessings and to drive away ghosts and evil spirits.
In the front hall, Yi Qilin, Yun Xiaomeng, Yi Qingxin and Mei Yuanchen were sitting and chatting. Seeing Yi Qingxin peeking at her with a smile on her face, Mei Yuanchen only felt that one person was as big as the other, but she didn't even hear Yi Qilin's question.
"My grandpa asked you something, why didn't you answer it?" Yi Qingxin covered her mouth and smiled. Seeing Mei Yuanchen staring at her dully, she felt funny and embarrassed, thinking, "Look at his stupid look, grandpa is still here, how embarrassing!"
"Ah? What?" Mei Yuanchen came back to his senses and looked at Yi Qingxin blankly. When he saw her, he smiled and said nothing. He had to look at Yi Qilin again and said apologetically, "Senior Yi, I was distracted, I'm really sorry. .Didn’t...didn’t hear what you said.”
Yi Qilin chuckled and replied, "What's the big deal." He thought that Mei Yuanchen's adoptive father had recently lost his father, and he had been heartbroken for a long time. He was still in a daze, so he didn't care.
Seeing that Yi Qilin didn't ask any more questions, Mei Yuanchen had no choice but to laugh and give up. Opposite him, Yi Qingxin had already bent over with laughter. She tried her best to stop laughing after hearing her grandfather's dry cough.
"It's almost a quarter past two o'clock. The city gates will be opened in half an hour. Let's set off." Yi Qilin suddenly took the sword and bag on the table and said to Yun Xiaomeng and the others.
A bald man who had been sitting on the sidelines suddenly stood up after hearing his words, stood at the door, and said respectfully: "Chief escort, the horses are all ready, please follow me."
... ...
Mu Danqing had led the army for many years and had already developed the habit of sleeping less and lightly. Before midnight, he had already visited the military camp and returned to the central military tent.
"General, General Duanmu, the Royal Court Secretary, is here and has arrived outside the tent." Less than half a moment after he sat down, he heard his own soldiers coming forward to report.
"Duanmu Jing, or Duanmu Chong?" Mu Danqing put down the wolf hair in his hand, raised his head and asked.
The soldier had already asked clearly. At this time, he clasped his fists and replied: "Coming back to the general, it is Duanmu Chong, the general of the left."
Previously, Duanmu Jing was sent to the General's Mansion in the north to persuade Zhao Qianming to surrender. Since he was stationed in Beijun, which was close to Shatuo but far away from Jue Country, Zhao Qianming naturally chose to seek refuge in Shatuo, which was more than a thousand miles away. Duanmu Jing was about to come back to answer his orders, but he received a new mission and rushed to the capital of Dahua without stopping.
Mu Danqing packed up his pen and inkstone and said to the soldiers: "Invite him in." The soldiers responded, "Take orders" and retreated.
"Your Majesty, I hope you are sending me good news... Can you hear it? Beiye City is filled with the cries of these 210,000 innocent souls." Mu Danqing closed his eyes and prayed softly.
Outside the Chinese army’s tent, there was a continuous sound of chanting: “The Supreme Order, transcend your lonely soul. Escape from the sea of suffering, reincarnate as a human being! The Supreme Supreme Order, transcend your lonely soul. Escape from the sea of suffering, reincarnate as a human being...”
