Duo Yi was ordered to go straight to the Tiandu prison, summoned two cell heads, and explained the matter secretly.

The two cell leaders did not dare to slack off, so they found a death row prisoner who was similar to Yeli's body, first paraded through the streets with a cloak and hair, then shot alive with a court staff, and finally dragged to the field and hastily buried. The two cell bosses were secretly killed by Duoyi afterwards, and they did not know it.

The next day, the arrogant edict was issued to the world, and the edict was to the effect that the second prince of Bei Jiguo left the battle at night and killed his brother by drinking, committed the crime of great rebellion, and was killed by the court staff. This edict is hereby announced to the world to set an example.

When the people of Beiji Kingdom saw the edict, they were all shocked and puzzled, and there were many discussions, but who could find out the truth!

When Mrs. Xi heard this, it was like having a serious illness, bedridden, and she didn't think about tea and dinner.

When Huo Nan heard the news that his master was dead, he cried bitterly, hurriedly wrapped his luggage, and escaped from the heavenly capital with the ghost, not knowing where to go.

After arrogance dealt with the matter of night departure, he made a grand ceremony for Yinguang in the palace on the day of resumption, and then buried him with the Jing Demon Sword in the royal cemetery, and the spiritual seat was offered to the Taimiao to enjoy the sacrifice. It's a pity that Princess Hongxuan was taken captive by the night and doesn't know her whereabouts, so she couldn't be buried with Yinguang and share the temple sacrifice.

Wuyanghua lost his daughter, was heartbroken, regretted, and after the funeral and other matters, he said goodbye to Bo Tuo, and returned to Huohongkou all the way.

Ao Hao put down two rebellions, but lost two sons.

After suffering from this great change, he learned from the pain, so he opened the door to education, and published official documents for the ten heinous crimes such as rebellion, rebellion, great disrespect, and unfilial piety, and distributed them to all states and counties, and strictly implemented them.

The subjects of the world are all in awe, follow the rules, and dare not take a step beyond the thunder pool.

Since then, the people have been solemn, the world is peaceful, and gradually there has been a scene of revival.

On the same day, Ling Kongzi saved Ye Li's life, so he carried him straight out of the Tiandu Holy Palace, and drove the clouds all the way to Lingruo Island.

After three days, I have reached the southeast ocean, and I have a distant glimpse of an island standing in the turbulent blue waves below, looming, just like a small rolling snail in a jasper plate.

"That's Lingruo Island. Ling Kongzi stretched out his hand and pointed to the small snail and said, "Li'er, let's go down." ”

Before he could answer, he felt that the soles of his feet sank, and he had fallen on the island with the volley.

As far as the eye can see, the island has been mottled with black swar, which is a large area of dark green, black and swarthy is a forest of rocks, and dark green is overgrown with grass and trees, a primitive and desolate scene. The constant roar of the sea breeze and the roar of the waves washing over the reef makes people feel more and more desolate.

"Master, the apprentice doesn't want to stay here, the apprentice is willing to go to Jingshan with the master's reply. Seeing this scene at night, a trace of pathos flashed in his pupils, and he said pitifully.

When Ling Kongzi heard this, his heart was slightly sour: "Li'er, haven't you heard what your father meant, Bei Ji Country no longer has a place for you to stand, and it is a blessing in misfortune to save your little life, do you have any luxury?"

"The world is big, where is there no place for apprentices to live, why does the master want to bring apprentices to this ghost place? Yeli pouted.

"There are two reasons why the teacher brought you here: first, you are young and vigorous, and your heart is not complete, and it is difficult to restrain yourself, and only by imprisoning you on this island will you be honest and will not cause trouble; even if you are not honest, you will not be able to go out and threaten others; second, there is a huge monument on this island, and there is a fierce demon under the monument, if you can't meditate and think about it, or if you have evil thoughts in your heart, you can go and see the giant monument - the end of evil. In the end, it is a last resort to make this decision as a teacher, and I hope you will not live up to the good intentions of being a teacher. Ling Kongzi said.

"Master, when will that apprentice be able to go back?" Yeli was powerless to resist, knowing that he would have to live alone on this desert island from now on, but he didn't know when the year and month would be the end, so he asked.

"Anyone who can become a great thing has experienced sadness, loneliness and suffering. As long as you always repent of your mistakes, keep good thoughts, and practice here, you will be able to achieve success in the future, and you will be given a ten-year period as a teacher, and then the teacher will come to see you. Ling Kongzi said.

"Ten years, how long will it take!"

"Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, and a hundred years is just like a horse piercing a gap, let alone ten years. If you devote yourself to cultivation, ten years is just a snap of your fingers. Ling Kongzi said, and said, "For the teacher, I will take you to see the stone tablet." ”

Decade?

Ten years is just a snap of a finger?

But how many months, how many days, how many hours are there in ten years?

Ye Li thought to himself, and the whole person collapsed in an instant, and followed Ling Kongzi to the south.

There are five shots, and suddenly a huge rock comes into view.

I saw that the huge rock is about 50 zhang high, about two or three miles long, black and not slippery, not a single inch of grass grows, like a giant whale lying on the island, but the head seems to be cut off, revealing a neat and smooth side, there are tadpole words vaguely engraved on the top, and those tadpole words are the size of a round table one by one, which makes people marvel and breathtaking.

"This is the legendary monument. Ling Kongzi pointed to the boulder, revealing an admiring look and said, "This divine monument is the suppression of the fierce demon hill. ”

"Hmm. Ye Xingxing looked up with absent eyes, and sighed.

Legend has it that this Qiu Quyu is a half-human, half-beast man, the inhabitant of Yangshan, and later fought with the Beiji country in order to fight for the territory. He burned, killed and looted, did all kinds of evil, committed heinous crimes, and was finally suppressed by Wensheng Yin Yizi on this Lingruo Island, and he could never turn over. This is the end of evil! ”

"Master: This legend was more than 2,000 years ago, how can Master remember it so clearly?" Yeli muttered, in fact, he secretly guessed in his heart: Maybe I am afraid that Master deliberately made up a story to teach me a lesson.

"You stupid apprentice, where is the teacher to remember clearly, it is that the words on this monument have already been written clearly. Ling Kongzi was proud of his knowledge of Dongtu characters, and couldn't help but read the words on the rock wall casually, and explained them while reading them aloud.

The content of the written record on the rock wall is roughly like this: In the early days of the Beiji Kingdom, there were Westerners who attacked the territory of Yangshan and Qiuquyu, seized the state and plundered the county, and did all kinds of evil. Bei Ji country nine battles and could not win, after the birth of Wen Sheng, with the "Luo Tian Great Surrender Method" to subdue Qiu Quyu, but because of this demon has practiced Xuanzhu, it is difficult to destroy it, so it will be suppressed under the vast ocean island far away from Bei Ji country, never turn over. And Wen Sheng also guarded this island for more than 270 years, until the demons had no strength to resist and left. After that, every time there is a catastrophe in heaven and earth, he will come to patrol once to prevent the evil from escaping. At the end of the article, he was named: Dongtu Yin Yizi.

Yeli has been learning art with Ling Kongzi since he was a child, and he has also learned some Middle-earth characters, so he can naturally vaguely understand it.

Ling Kongzi recited the wall text in a low voice, and sighed: "There are many saints in the east. Li'er, you have to learn the saint of literature, not the devil. ”

"I know. Yeli listened to the master's tirade and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"As a teacher, let's take you to see where Wen Sheng once lived. Ling Kongzi said, and led Yeli to the west of the boulder.

After walking for a short time, I came to a forest shade, and saw that there was an abandoned stone house crawling full of vines, the roof had long been gone, but the four walls still existed, and there were stone beds, stone tables and stone benches, and the waste wall was not far to the right, and there was a borehole dug.

I walked to the stone well, brushed away the grass, and looked down.

I saw a pool of clear water, clear and cold, clearly reflecting his figure in the well.

A frog attached to the wall of the well was frightened, and with a pop jumped into the water, shattering Yeli's figure.

When I saw it at night, my heart suddenly soured: Am I not this frog at the bottom of the well now?

Seeing the sad expression of the apprentice, Ling Kongzi sighed with emotion: "I knew today, why bother in the beginning." Okay, what should be done has been done, what should be said has been said, Li'er, you should reflect on it here, and you will go back to the palace to inform your father as a teacher. ”

"Master......" Yeli's eyes showed reluctance.

"Ten years later, I will come to see you again. After Ling Kongzi finished speaking, the foot cloud bucket had already risen into the air.

"Master, master......" Yeli was suddenly terrified, and desperately called out loudly.

Ling Kongzi stomped in the air and said loudly: "Good thoughts arise, and the right path is proven, and there is infinite light; Li'er, you can do it yourself!" After speaking, he turned around and drifted away.

"Master, master, master......"

Yeli beckoned, pulled out and ran, and suddenly stumbled and fell on the beach.

When he looked up at the sky, he saw that in the empty blue sky, there was not even a trace of clouds to be seen, only a round of poisonous sun hanging high, radiating a scorching light.

"Master......" Yeli cried out in despair, his hands clutched a handful of sand, and tears came out of his eyes.

In the distance, row after row of waves crashed against the reef in anger, splashing thousands of waves, and falling into the sea again. Nearby, the sea breeze blew vigorously, constantly whining, like a woman sobbing, whispering.

Yeli lay on his stomach on the beach, motionless, and the sand in his palm was clenched by him fiercely, as if he wanted to pull out the juice.

At this time, he had all kinds of grievances, all kinds of anger, and all kinds of resentment in his heart, but he had nowhere to vent.

"I can't just give up my life! No! I can't...... Absolutely not! Isn't it just 10 years? 10 years is long and short, and I must survive until the day I emerge!"

Yeli was originally a competitive person, and after crying in pain and thinking about it, he swore secretly.

But to survive to the end of the day, you must first live!

Yeli made up his mind, and with infinite courage, he turned over and began to cut down trees, repair the stone house, and then mow the grass and vines around the stone house.

Yeli was originally accustomed to mountain life, and any work at hand such as weaving mats and shoes, hunting and fishing, drilling wood for fire, etc., could not be difficult for him.

After three days of busy work, the stone house has a new look, just like a family.

But when Yeli was busy, loneliness haunted him like a nightmare: in addition to talking to his own shadow, he still talked to his own shadow.

On the fourth day, Yeli was already tired and listless lying on the stone bed, too lazy to move, and when he slept until the third pole of the sun, he suddenly was bitten by a mosquito, and woke up, reached out to scratch his neck, and inadvertently touched something hidden in his arms.

The night was stunned, and he took it out and took a look:

Huh? It turned out to be the strange book of mountains and seas, "Bai Zetu"! Fortunately, he had always carried it tightly in his arms, so he never lost it.

Yeli is like discovering a shocking secret, rubbing the secret path of "Bai Zetu": it is said that there is a mystery of yin and yang in heaven and earth, the mystery of the changes of birds and beasts, and the secret of dissecting and dominating all things. I'm bored here, so why don't I study it carefully, and maybe I'll find a way out of this island. ”

After thinking about it, Yeli opened the silk scroll with confidence and read it carefully.

This "Bai Zetu" was written in the period of the Yellow Emperor, not to mention the strange birds and monsters in the book, such as the nine-headed, three-legged, armored, thorny, etc., Yeli is unheard of and unseen, that is, the knotted rope-like ancient clumsy text twisted and twisted, and he also pretended to guess that he couldn't recognize a few.

Fortunately, there are some dense annotations in the corners of the book (which are annotated by Su Kun, the great priest of Kejing), so Ye Li compared the Middle-earth script taught by Ling Kongzi to the two, and actually knew the basic idea.

After studying for about two months, although I memorized a lot of things by rote, such as the names of beasts, talismans, etc., after all, the Dongtu script was ancient and profound, and it was difficult to gain anything, but I was so anxious that my black hair exploded in a hurry.

I couldn't study it anymore day and night, so I threw "Bai Zetu" on the stone table and walked out of the stone house to breathe. Standing under the eaves, twisting his neck, shrugging his shoulders, and casually raising his eyes to catch a glimpse of the monument, he couldn't help but have an idea, and muttered: It is said that Qiu Quyu has been pressed under the monument for more than 2,000 years, is it not dead? If he is really not dead, talking to him may help me escape from this island.

After thinking about it at night, his mood suddenly became much more comfortable, so he strode to the monument and shouted: "Qiu Quyu! Qiu Quyu...... Are you still alive?"

He shouted as he pushed through the grass and searched east and west, hoping to find some traces of spiders.

Sure enough, I found a hole under the monument, about the size of a bucket.

Yeli was overjoyed, so he tentatively picked up a stone and threw it into the cave, and then listened attentively, but after a long time, he did not hear the sound of the stone falling to the ground, let alone any other movement.

He regained the courage to poke his head into the hole, and when he opened his eyes wide, he saw that the cold air was swishing inside, and there was a black rumbling, so he shouted again: "Qiu Quyu......! Are you still alive?"
