Chang Xiu and Chang Qiuwu were stunned for a moment and said, "Ghost clan?"
Li Boxen said: "Yes. The man called himself Bi Hai, and said that the six emperors and the three demon kings of the Demon Kingdom are all the Nine Saints of their ghost clan. He also said that they are the ancestors of Jiao Yuxuluo and even humans. The man spoke truthfully It’s shocking, I don’t take it seriously, but he did show some skills - they may also be able to make people practice magic. If the ghost tribe in the Demon Kingdom used magic to help the monsters..."
Chang Xiu said: "Bo Chen, please tell me in detail."
Li Bochen slowly told what happened that day. After the two listened, Chang Xiu frowned and said, "She is indeed a weirdo... Princess Rakshasa? Hiss... it doesn't sound like a lie."
He thought again and said: "Okay. This matter should indeed be investigated in detail. As for the cave sky of Thunder Cloud Cave, I have always heard about it. Bo Chen, wait for two days and wait for the Sui Gongzi to be appeased. Okay, let’s do this.”
Li Bochen breathed a sigh of relief. When he said these speculations of his, he thought Chang Xiu wouldn't care much. Because these speculations came from his own consciousness and there was really no real basis for them, but unexpectedly Chang Xiu and Chang Qiuwu seemed to take them very seriously.
When I listened to the conversation between the two of them while walking in the meadow that day, I felt that they wanted to manipulate me as a puppet, so I said this to test their attitude towards myself. Now I feel that they should have seen that I can be called brave and resourceful, and no longer look down upon him.
At this time, Chang Xiu said again: "Bochen, do you have any words?"
Li Bochen was stunned and said, "No."
The words in this world are different from where he came from. In the ancient times where he came from, it was unseemly for a scholar to not have a pseudonym, but here, it seems that only people from a well-known family have a pseudonym. If ordinary people also use this word for themselves, they will be laughed out of their wits and mocked for clinging to them.
Chang Xiu said: "This can't be done. There should be words."
Li Bochen didn't care much about this, so he smiled and said, "Grandpa, please give me a word."
Chang Xiu said: "How dare you say gift?"
He frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "This matter is not trivial, I have to think about it carefully. But I heard you call Qiu Wu Chang brother? How can this be okay - Qiu Wu, don't you understand etiquette too?"
Chang Qiuwu's face turned red, and Li Bochen thought to himself that this was really an injustice to him - he called him a cousin, and his name was very smooth.
Before he could speak, Chang Xiu said: "But you are indeed older than Bochen. Bochen, let's use words to match you from now on."
Chang Qiuwu said hurriedly: "It's the prince, I'm here to express my gratitude."
In fact, Li Bochen also thought it was a bit funny to call someone "Cousin Grandpa" or "Junhou" and call someone "Brother Chang", but Fengzhi's title was more catchy, so he smiled and said: "Okay, Fengzhi——"
I wanted to say brother, but when I saw Chang Xiu, I swallowed it back.
Chang Xiu said: "Okay, okay."
He walked to the chair and rubbed his hand on the edge of the table. Chang Qiuwu rolled up the map on the table and said, "I'm going to order some food. Junhou, that brother Fang——"
Li Bochen said: "Please get him some food. This man is an old acquaintance of mine and has helped me many times. He probably wants to join me when he comes here, but I don't know what to call him at the moment. .”
Chang Qiuwu responded and walked out.
Only then did Li Bochen realize that Chang Xiu seemed to want to take a rest. He was stunned and hurriedly walked to the hall and sat down. Chang Xiu slowly sat down, looked at Li Bochen kindly for a moment, and whispered: "Bochen... tell me about your mother."
…
It was already dark when he and Fang Yu left Chang's house.
Although Fang Yu didn't use the pills that Li Boxen took, he also wrapped himself in good trauma medicine and put on new clothes. After eating and drinking, I looked very energetic.
Li Bochen raised his eyes and looked towards the horizon, and saw some colorful colors dancing slightly in the far distance, much like an aurora. That must be the formation set up by Sui Buxiu, right? Mengjiatun and Jinghu Mountain were surrounded.
When the two of them were a little further away from the Chang family's house, Fang Cheng said: "General Li, I didn't expect you to be from a famous family."
Li Bochen smiled and said, "How are your arms?"
Fang Bao raised his head slowly: "Much better. I don't know what kind of medicine was given to me. I have never seen it in the Sui Dynasty - ha, yes, Mr. Chang used to be the young minister of Taichang Temple. How could he be the Sui Dynasty?" Nothing compares to cheapness.”
Li Bochen didn't know what to say, so he could only hum.
After walking for a while, he said: "You can stay at my place. I don't know whether to continue living here or move to Jinghu Mountain. My bedding is all ready-made."
yes. I bought a lot of things in Houcheng that day, and there were still two quilts that had not been washed. well.
Fang Bao said: "Okay. General Li, from now on... By the way, I didn't expect that Mr. Sui to be so approachable. Did you often talk to him when you were in Wuliang City?"
Li Bochen didn't know what he wanted to say, so he said, "We don't talk often."
Fang Ruan smiled: "That's a friendship. Well, it will be much more comfortable for us to work under him in the future. General Li, does your grandpa want to assist Duke Chebei? Then I think you will be afraid in the future. He is no longer just a commander, he might even become a general."
Li Bochen was stunned, General? He means the general. The six countries all have a nine-level military system. The highest commander he ever held was the highest level of the lower three levels. Generals in the army usually call each other "general". Even if he is a tenth general, he is also called "general Li". But strictly speaking, only when you reach the sixth level, the commander-in-chief, can you be considered a serious general. Even if those below can lead 10,000 people, it doesn't count.
But assisting Duke Chebei? Working under Sui Buxiu? He suddenly realized that Fang Yu still didn't know his identity. Ha... no wonder. He has always regarded himself as a highly capable officer, right? He was originally from Wuliang City.
It was not easy for him to explain, so he just smiled and said, "Let's talk about these things later."
But Fang Chu said seriously: "General Li, I have nothing else to say - I mean the five thousand kilograms of grain. I heard that Duke Chebei led the remnant army into Siheng Mountain, and now it is time to come to Mengjiatun Right? With so many people, they must be short of food and clothing. I think you should not take out the food now. You should wait until Duke Chebei arrives before offering it to you."
Li Bochen thought for a while and said, "Why?"
Fang Chu said as he walked: "We are not short of food now. Taking it out now is just the icing on the cake. But when Che Beigong's people come, it will be a timely help. General Li, to be honest, I got this food before because I wanted to Seek a future with Mr. Sui. But you were kind to me, and today on the battlefield, you let me go first. I really don’t know how to repay this kind of kindness. From now on, I will only recognize you, so I also hope that you will be better and better. Promotion. Mr. Chebei leads many soldiers, so it is inevitable that he will be ranked according to seniority when he gets here. If you have no merit, he will not be able to reward you. "
Li Bochen felt warm in his heart. When Hou Cheng knew that he wanted to cling to Sui Bujiu, he felt a little disappointed even though he said he didn't mind. But listening to what he said now, I knew that this man might be ruthless in his actions, but he also understood the word love. He didn't want him to continue to say wrong things, so he planned to tell him his identity in a tactful way.
At this time, the two of them had reached the door of their house. Li Boxen was about to speak when he saw three figures standing outside the door. They heard a voice from a distance: "Brother Li, what a coincidence, I just came to the door."
It's the Sui Dynasty.
Li Boxen hurriedly took two steps, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Sui."
Sui Buxiu walked over with a smile on his face and said, "I said at noon that I wanted to reminisce about old times, and I'll be here in the evening. I won't disturb your work, right?"
Li Bochen smiled: "I have nothing to do, please come inside."
Sui Buxiu said that he had just arrived, but Li Bochen saw some night dew on his hair, indicating that he had been waiting for a long time. He probably wanted to find out Chang Xiu's attitude as soon as possible. It's really sad to say... A few months ago, he was the noble son and he was a pawn, but now the situation is reversed.
He walked to the courtyard door first, raised his hand and pushed the door open. When he turned his face, he caught a glimpse of Fang Yu winking at him. Li Bochen was stunned for a moment and understood what he meant - he wanted to remind himself to ask Sui Buxiu to leave first, right?
Li Bochen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had to pretend not to see it.
He opened the door and invited Sui Buxiu into the courtyard. Sui Buxiu looked at it and said, "Okay, it's really elegant."
Fang Bao and two Yu guards also walked in, and Sui Buxiu said: "One hundred and six hundred and ninety-nine, find a place to rest."
The two brown-feathered men responded in unison, then turned and walked out of the door. Later, he heard a slight sound of wings spreading, and Li Boxen guessed that they were on alert in the air or on a tree.
Sui Buxiu looked at Fang Yu again and said, "Who is this?"
Fang Bao raised his hand and bowed respectfully, lowered his head slightly and said nothing. Li Bochen was stunned for a moment and then said: "Oh, this is a friend of mine, Fang Cheng."
Sui Buxiu nodded and didn't say anything, but he didn't move his feet either.
Li Bochen thought for a while and realized that Sui Buxiu should think that Fang Yu was his servant or subordinate, and he also wanted to be like him and ask Fang Yu to retreat. Just now, Fang Yu didn't answer, but wanted to speak by himself. This probably meant that he was treating him as his subordinate.
These things really gave him a headache. But Li Boxen felt that Fang Yu was indeed his friend. It was like Sui Buxiu had ordered the two Yu guards to ask Fang Tao to retreat, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
He said, "He wants to live in my house. Brother Fang, you can live in the east wing. Brother Sui and I will talk about some things. After we finish talking, I will send you the bedding."
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, then said: "Yes."
He bowed to Sui Buxiu again, took two steps back, turned around and walked into the east wing.
After he closed the door, Sui Buxiu smiled: "I know why I fell in love with you. No matter who you get along with, you always make people feel close to you."
Li Bochen didn't know if he was being polite, so he smiled and said, "Brother Sui, please come inside."
The two entered the main room, and Li Bochen turned on the talisman lamp.
After he left, no one should have entered the house. A thin layer of dust accumulated on the tables, chairs, and the shafts of calligraphy and painting. When his eyes fell on the short brown shirt beside the table, his heart skipped a beat, as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer. He gritted his teeth, picked up his clothes, and said, "Brother Sui, it's funny. I haven't put it away for a long time."
As he spoke, he walked into the east room, put his clothes beside the bed, and walked out again.
But he saw Sui Buxiu standing in the middle of the hall, bowing and bowing deeply, saying: "Brother Li, before I repaid kindness with hatred, it was really a villain's behavior. I don't want to defend myself, nor do I ask for forgiveness. But if there is a chance in the future, I will let you see my sincerity."
What he said was a bit harsh, but Li Bochen did feel more comfortable. Then he sighed and said: "Forget it, it's all in the past, don't mention it again."
Sui Bujiu straightened up, took something out of his arms and held it over with both hands, saying: "My father also regrets it very much, so he asked me to give this thing to you as an apology."
Sui Wujiu wanted to come to Mengjiatun, but he might not be able to do so. Since Li Bochen already knew the result, he didn't want any apology. He was about to refuse, but when he saw the thing in Sui Buxiu's hand, he was stunned.
It was not a treasure like gold or jade, but a circle of tissue paper with some runes on it.
Sui Buxiu immediately said: "I guess you won't accept ordinary objects, but this is a weapon."
weapon?
Li Bochen suddenly thought of Yu Meng - during the day, he saw him drop two pieces of talisman paper from his sleeves, and then they turned into a large shield, which even his own sword could not cut through. Sui Buxiu said that the paper was a weapon. Is it similar to that thing?
He was really curious and said, "Brother Sui, what's the point of this thing?"
Sui Buxiu smiled and said: "This is a talisman weapon. It can be worn on the wrist. It is usually as light as paper. But when you recite the curse, it immediately turns into a weapon."
After saying this, he stepped back two steps and said, "Brother Li, please take a look."
His lips moved quickly, and the talisman suddenly glowed with green light and turned into a large stick. The blade is extremely long, comparable to his magic sword, and the shaft is also very long, about four times as long as the blade. Looking at the shape, it should be a handle.
Sui Buxiu raised his hand, threw the big stick over, and said, "Brother Li, let's see if it's good enough."
Li Bochen took it with one hand, and immediately felt a sinking feeling. He thought to himself, What a guy! After taking another hand, I felt that the weight was just right. He thought for a while, then strode to the courtyard and danced around, hearing the wind whistling in his ears.
What a good thing. Now he has Yaohou and the Demon Sword, but he is actually missing a long weapon - he is very strong, and having this thing in the battle formation can be said to be even more powerful. At ordinary times, it can be turned into a piece of talisman paper and stored on the wrist, which is extremely convenient.
Sui Buxiu walked to the door and said with a smile: "Brother Li, are you satisfied?"
He couldn't be more satisfied. I wanted to refuse before, but now I couldn't put it down. I thought to myself, luckily I didn't say it just now.
Then he stood down and said, "What a treasure."
Sui Buxiu smiled and said, "Then I can go back and deliver the work."
He also told Li Bochen the incantation to sacrifice and withdraw, and sighed: "This spear is called Duojianghai, and it was used by my father when he was young. My father said that this treasure has been dusted for a long time, and now it is good to give it to Brother Li. Let it shine again."
Seize the rivers and seas. The Sui Kingdom believed in the Liudu Emperor and respected the virtue of water, but this was called seizing the rivers and seas - no wonder the Sui King was afraid of Sui Wujiu. Is that why he stopped using it?
Knowing its origin, Li Boxen wanted to pretend to be polite, but he thought it was just for apology anyway, so there was nothing to be polite about. He said: "Okay, Brother Sui, thank the Grand Duke for me."
Sui smiled endlessly and said, "Of course."
Then he said: "The apology has been sent, Brother Li, it's time for me to say goodbye."
Li Bochen was stunned - didn't he say anything else? !
