Chapter Ninety-Six: The Past and Twists and Turns


Yan Xinglie's sword did not cut down after all.Relying on the scholar's strategy, the dark clouds that had been following him dissipated temporarily, and several people also had spare strength to find a place to rest and recuperate.However, it was supposed to be a time to raise a glass and celebrate, but because of the words of the White Lotus Holy Maiden by the lake, it came to an imperfect end.After fighting there, Yan Xinglie had been depressed, and this decisive man became hesitant.Right now, he is guarding the room where the White Lotus Holy Maiden is housed, and he doesn't go in, just pacing back and forth at the door.Sometimes he gritted his teeth on the hilt of his sword, and sometimes he shook his head and sighed."

You shall kill her in a hurry, even if you go in and strike a sword; If you are not in a hurry......

Li Changan raised two jars of old wine in his hand, as well as a basket of side dishes that he bought easily."

Why don't you have a drink with me first?"

…………………… The two of them sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard.If the bearded man doesn't say anything, Li Changan won't ask more.I only pushed the glass and changed it silently for a long time, until the cup and plate were messy, and the bearded man put down the wine glass again, and was stunned for a while, and then finally opened his mouth."

Does the Dao Chief know that Li Kuiqi is a thief?"

The Taoist priest nodded.He really knows a thing or two about this person.The world is chaotic, the small court of Chang'an is powerless to command the locality, there are many warlords in various places, the small ones occupy the mountains and villages, and the large ones annex the states and counties, this Li Kuiqi is a powerful one in the north."

Presumably the Taoist chief also saw that Yan was born in the army......"

Li Changan did not answer, waiting for Yan Xinglie to continue to pour.He poured a glass of wine, but he didn't take a sip for a long time, only his expression became more and more trance-like, and the focus of his eyes became more and more dizzy, as if he was immersed in the past and couldn't extricate himself.“…… At that time, I served in northern Xinjiang, served as the commander of Pinglu Prefecture, and led my hometown children to resist the Turks.At that time, Li Kuiqi and Cheng Liang were in the army, and they were about brothers with each other, and called each other the Three Tigers......"

He mentioned these two names, and his body trembled a few times."

That year, the Turks invaded the border, and I led troops to meet the battle, leaving Li Kuiqi to defend Pinglu......

Although the thief army is powerful, but relying on the concerted efforts of the soldiers, the battle situation has gradually turned from danger to safety......

That thief is actually making trouble!

At present, the enemy is blocked, and there is no food and grass......

On the way back to the army, there were dead and wounded, and the children in my hometown were almost wiped out, but I pity my wife and children trapped in Pinglu City......

"What is going on at home, he didn't say anything.I only crumpled the wine glass in my hand into pieces, and then kneaded it into powder, mixed with the wine, like blood dropping from my heart.“…… I felt shameless to see my brothers in the army and my hometown fathers, so I resigned from my position in the army.But can the hatred of the country not be avenged?

!

After I was exiled in the rivers and lakes, I designed to ambush and kill the thief many times, but suddenly there were many evil demon guards around the thief, and now I think it is the White Lotus Sect.Three times and twice in vain, not to mention, but even the lives of several relatives and friends...... cough cough ......"

Speaking of this, Yan Xinglie, who was getting more and more excited, suddenly coughed violently."

Brother Yan......"

The Taoist priest frowned with concern."

It doesn't matter."

The bearded man waved his hand, "It's old, it's out of the way." ”He wanted to pour the wine, only to find that the wine glass had been crushed by himself, so he simply poured most of it with his head held high in the wine urn."

After that, I learned that I couldn't take revenge with my sword and crossbow alone, so I joined the Pacification Division......

Do you remember my bronze sword?

”The Taoist priest nodded, the bronze short sword that could be called a fierce god and evil, he still remembered it vividly."

That sword is the way I found to fight against the demons of the White Lotus Sect, and it was made by the method of refining flying swords with ancient sword immortals.It's a pity that with the help of the power of the Zhenfu Division, after nearly ten years, its materials are still lacking, and the sword is still just a sword embryo. ”Sword embryo?!

Li Changan couldn't help but be stunned, such a murder weapon was actually only a half-finished product?

Yan Xinglie nodded.Speaking of this sword, although there was no lack of distress in his tone, it was also somewhat invigorated."

Dao Changli also saw it, that day in the mountain monarch's demon nest, I reluctantly drove it to shoot the pig demon, and it was about to break free from its shackles in the blink of an eye and eat back against my master......"

Yan Xinglie was still shaking his head, but Li Changan understood why his hesitation and depression came from.According to him, since the fall of Pinglu, he has actually lived for revenge for the rest of his life.And now, on the one hand, the enemy's daughter is in front of him, and even if he kills her, he can't say revenge, but he can comfort the anger in his chest a little; On the other hand, the bearded man is almost stubborn in his obsession with the word "loyalty", if he kills the White Lotus Demon Maiden, he will betray his duty, and secondly, he will not be able to resist the calming Si Pao Ze who died for this matter.Therefore, it is uncertain and uneasy.Li Changan thought for a while, remembered some things he had seen and heard during the journey, and comforted: "I heard that the imperial court appointed famous generals to conquer Li Kuiqi, and his people were defeated and retreated, and their destruction was on the verge ......of destruction." ”Yan Xinglie shook his head, "Although the general is a famous general in the world, but the combat strength of the officers and soldiers is worried, and there are many constraints in the DPRK and China......

Alas. ”As he spoke, he suddenly let out a long sigh, and this breath seemed to exhale the depression of his whole body.He bowed his hand to the Taoist priest and said: "Thanks to the wine and food of the Taoist chief, Yan also figured it out......"

"Employing people's children to vent their anger, is it the husband's doing?!"

”Yan Xinglie's face was high again."

How can you take revenge with others and wait for the court to quell the rebellion?!""

I've made up my mind, I just want to escort that demon girl to the Thousand Buddha Temple.I gave up this old face and returned to serve in the army, and joined the general's command, even if I was a big soldier, I would cut off the head of Li Kuiqi with my own hands!

”"Come!"

He grabbed the wine jar, only to find that the two jars of old wine had all made him sorrowful.As for the Taoist priest, the cups are almost dry."

But it's Yan's gaffe, I heard that there is a Huiyan Tower near the left, selling good wine and meat, and the Taoist chief looked at the demon girl, I'll go buy some."

After speaking, he was about to get up, but was stopped by Li Changan raising his hand."

Not busy."

The Taoist priest moved his nose and smiled."

The wine and food are coming to the door."

Immediately, a hearty voice came from outside the courtyard."

I only know that Daoist Li's sword is fast, and he can pinch it if he doesn't want to.""

It's just a smart nose."

The Taoist priest turned back with a smile, and the scholar pushed the door in with the wine and food.……………………………… Although Han Zhiwei is the descendant of Longhu Mountain, Ziyun only learned spells, but he did not enter the Daomen, and he also took the Xiucai exam, but unfortunately he didn't succeed, and it is appropriate to call a scholar.After that night, the scholar sent the two of them and the White Lotus Holy Maiden ashore, but he was kept by Chenghuang, saying that he was helping to deal with some official business.The two stayed here, on the one hand, to repair, and on the other hand, to wait for him to meet again.The three of them sat down in the pavilion again, changed into new wine and food, and were not busy arguing about the white lotus demon girl, so they set up the Longmen Array in the north and south, and then they ate and drank.At the end, when he was full of wine and food, the scholar leaned on the pavilion pillar, broke a grass stalk and picked his teeth, and complained while touching his belly: "This Pingye Chenghuang Ye is careful, and he left me for most of the day before letting me go back to the yang world."

Pity me for not getting a drop of water or rice since last night, and I was so hungry that I was dizzy, and I almost didn't really go to the underworld to work. ”He chattered and talked for a while, seeing that both of them looked calm, and there was no sign that he couldn't sit still.Only then did he put away his frivolous appearance, sat upright, and said to the two."

I'm not going to hide it, I'm here for two things.""

One is to say goodbye to the two of you."

Li Changan remained silent, and sure enough, he continued: "The second is to implore Brother Yan to kill the White Lotus Demon Maiden. ”Li Changan laughed a little, thinking that if you came a moment early, while the bearded man was hesitant, he might be able to get his acquiescence, but now, what ......

"Brother Han's kindness, Yan is difficult to repay even if he is broken, but the matter of the demon girl is really a duty, and it is difficult to obey his fate." ”The scholar's expression was calm, and he obviously guessed that this would be the answer.However, since he is here to make a final effort, he will naturally not give up easily.He pondered for a long time: "Can the two of you know the 'blame'?

”Although the bearded man has an official background, he is a halfway monk after all, and he just shakes his head when he hears this word.However, Li Changan had heard Liu Laodao mention a few times, but he didn't know in detail.Half a reminder, half a question, he said: "Dada?

”"Da Da" is a popular ritual among the people and even in the court to ward off epidemics and evil spirits.Specifically, it is to imitate the ancient god Fang Xiangclan to drive the twelve divine beasts to devour the plague ghosts of the four directions, so as to intimidate the evil cult and keep it away from the world.At this mention, Yan Xinglie suddenly realized, and the scholar also nodded yes.The latter also clapped his hands and sang the "Twelve Beasts Eating Ghost Song" in the opera: "A is a miscellaneous, a stomach eats tigers, male uncles eat charms, Tengjian eats ominous, all food is to blame, Birch eats dreams, Qiang Liang and Zu Ming eat together and die parasitically, commission with the concept of food, staggered fasting and giant, poor Qi and Tenggen eat Gu together."

Whoever causes the twelve gods to chase the evil culprit, Heru your body, pull Ru Gan, cut your flesh, and suck your lungs and intestines.Thou shalt not be in a hurry to go, the latter is food!

”The scholar continued."

When people hear the word 'plague ghosts,' they think they are evil spirits who spread plagues.In fact, these eleven plague ghosts are all in response to all kinds of disasters between heaven and earth, immortal and indestructible, called ghosts, but they are gods, and the plague is just one of them.For example, 'blame' is to come into the world in response to the scourge of swords and soldiers in this world, like killing, warlike and chaotic......"

Hearing this, Li Changan's expression moved."

White Lotus Sect?"

Isn't it, the White Lotus Sect is a famous-stirring stick in the world, and its favorite thing is to fan the flames everywhere and set off wars, which is quite similar to the scholar's description of "blame".The scholar also nodded."

At the beginning of the founding of the Taizu of this dynasty, when the world was not appeased, the 'blame' fell into the hands of the White Lotus Sect for some reason, and it was also sealed into the body of the White Lotus Holy Maiden at that time......

And now. ”The scholar looked at the two of them, and his eyes were shining."

The opportunity to sever the foundation of the White Lotus Sect is right now!"

After hearing this, the Taoist priest probably understood that this 'blame' must be in the body of the White Lotus Holy Maiden of this generation, no wonder the White Lotus Sect is so prosperous, and even his own young master has been brought in.I also understand why the judge was frightened last night under the lake."

It's just ......"

Li Changan was still a little puzzled, "Killing the demon girl, wouldn't it also release the plague ghost and let it cause trouble in the world?"

”The scholar shook his head: "Dao Chief, in your opinion, will this world collapse because of a plague ghost?"

”"No, it won't.""

So, will the world be at peace because of a plague ghost?""

No, it won't.""

Yes."

The scholar said, "Heaven is constant." ”He turned his head again and asked Yan Xinglie."

Brother Yan, in your opinion, which of the White Lotus Sect or the One Plague Ghost is more harmful to this world?"

The bearded man did not hesitate."

White Lotus Sect."

The scholar then stroked his palms and smiled."

In this way, releasing a plague ghost is just adding a scabies, and killing a demon girl will remove a big trouble, why not?"

The scholar was right, but Yan Xinglie still said it."

Forgive me."

At this time, the scholar was almost anxious, but the bearded man raised his hand to signal the other party to be calm."

Brother Han didn't know that Yan's trip was to escort the demon girl to the famous Thousand Buddha Temple and fill in the Demon Cave.Not to mention anything else, as long as you enter that cave, even if you are the demon in the Nine Shadows, you can't escape, you can only obediently spend it to death, not to mention a mere demon girl.In this way, not only can the foundation of the White Lotus Sect be severed, but also the plague ghost will not be allowed to harm the world, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?!

”Unexpectedly, the scholar looked at the beard for a long time with a strange face, and frowned at the beard before he said, "Brother Yan doesn't know?"

”…………………… The bearded man and Li Changan glanced at each other, and they both smelled a trace of uneasiness from the scholar's words."

Brother Han might as well say it clearly."

The scholar pondered for a moment, as if organizing the language and soothing the mood."

Do you know that this White Lotus Holy Maiden is the daughter of Pinglu Li Kuiqi?"

It turned out to be this!

Both of them had a little oddity on their faces, and they just nodded.The scholar didn't pay attention either, and only threw out another shocking piece of news."

Then Li Kuiqi was recruited by the imperial court and made a marquis to worship the general, and the White Lotus Demon Girl will become a prince and noblewoman!"

The Taoist priest immediately "chuckled" in his heart, and the bearded man was now counting on following the court to quell the rebellion and take revenge, if the other party was recruited......

Li Changan looked worriedly, but found that the bearded man laughed instead."

What kind of joke did Brother Han make?"

The scholar solemnly said: "Every word is not bad, and there is no lie." ”"That's the rumors."

Yan Xinglie still didn't believe it, but he also explained, "Back then, Li Kuiqi led the Turks south, invaded the Yan Wangfu, and cooked the Yan Wangye.Today's Son of Heaven is the son of King Yan, and the hatred of killing his father is not shared, how can he recruit peace?

”However, the scholar sneered: "If the emperor is in charge of the court, it is not possible.But who in the world doesn't know that the little emperor on the dragon chair is just a 'fake emperor', and the big eunuch Yu Huaien standing next to him is the real emperor. ”"Impossible!"

Yan Xinglie suddenly changed color, "Eunuch An dares to risk the world's disapproval!"

”"Why don't you dare?"

The scholar's tone also became more intense."

The world is crazy, Li Kuiqi has been searching for the wealth from the north for ten years, and all of them were given to Yu Huaien, and the cart full of rare treasures, text antiques, gold, silver and jade entered the Mingde Gate through Zhuque Street into Yongye Fang, and walked for a whole day and a night!""

What about the Great General?

It is impossible for the general to agree......"

The general was condemned and imprisoned. ”The scholar said excitedly, but he didn't notice that the bearded man opposite him was red and his body was shaky."

Then Li Kuiqi is going to Chang'an City, and he is being appointed by Pinglu Jiedu and Huaiyuan, counting the days, I'm afraid I'm going to Juzhou City soon!""

Rebels and thieves......

Ahem!

”"Brother Yan?"

“…… Burst. ”Yan Xinglie spat blood from his mouth and fell to the ground with a bang.........................

"Doctor, how's that?"

”This well-known miracle doctor, the little old man who was half-invited and half-tied, said with a cold face: "It's late."

He is terminally ill and has no cure. ”"That's still alive......

Alas......"

The scholar's face was ashamed, he always felt that it was his gaffe that stimulated Yan Xinglie."

The strong man inside already has old diseases in his heart, and he has many dark old ......wounds all over his body," said the patient, and the little old man's expression softened a little.This anger erupted together.If you can sneak and recuperate, you may be able to lie down for a year and a half, if you can't ......"

The old man prescribed some prescriptions for hanging his life, so he ignored the scholar's repeated accusations and walked away.The Taoist priest organized his words in his heart and pushed the door open.Yan Xinglie put on his armor and wore a longbow and heavy sword, and stood proudly behind the door.
