Chapter 171: Joint Burial
The Li brothers and sisters followed everyone to Cui's pharmacy and reprimanded the disciples of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, teaching them to kneel in public to seek forgiveness from the beggar disciples. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoZhang Dafa was deeply grateful, and also expressed his willingness to defend the land for the imperial court. Unexpectedly, the Li brothers and sisters looked embarrassed when they heard it. Li Zhongyu said: "The beggar gang disciples have such thoughts, and this king is deeply honored. It's just that...... I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you......"
Zhang Dafa was stunned for a moment and said, "Oh, why did Your Majesty say this?" Li Zhongyu coughed lightly and said, "Father...... That is, His Majesty the Emperor, who received a letter of state from the Emperor of Song a few days ago, has preliminarily agreed to reach a peace agreement. That is to say, ......" said, and said with a long sigh of relief, "My Tang Kingdom has descended ......"
"What, it's falling?" Zhang Dafa couldn't believe his ears. But indeed, the Tang Kingdom has indeed descended.
Three days ago, the Li brothers and sisters, who were still organizing conscription work in other places, received a decree from Li Yu, the emperor of the Tang State. It turned out that Li Yu had been in uninterrupted contact with the envoys of the Song Kingdom. The Emperor of Song offered generous terms, hoping to exchange for the submission of Tang. Prior to this, Li Yu had once been a minister, and the emperor of the Song State did not want to give up the annexation of the Tang State for a moment in his heart. This time the soldiers pressed the territory, in fact, it was not about conquering the city, but more about deterrence. Li Yujun finally could not bear this tremendous overthrow pressure, and was really worried that his subjects would be poisoned. At the beginning of all preparations for war, he was reluctant to surrender.
Li Zhongyu sighed and said, "Before, my father had already surrendered himself to depose the emperor as the king of Tang. This Song court intensified its efforts and once again sent troops to gather outside the city of Tanzhou. The condition that my father agreed this time was that our Li family would only retain the inherent fiefdom, and the rest of the places would be ceded to the Song court. I think we'll all be escorted north in a few days. Zhang Dafa was shocked: "Could it be that Emperor Song wants to imprison His Majesty in Bianjing?"
Li Zhongxuan nodded and said, "Therefore, we came to Tanzhou this time to inform Xiaoyue, so as not to have another conflict between the two sides, so that my father and emperor will not be able to explain." After hearing this, Zhang Dafa felt a pain in his heart, bowed his head and sighed: "Our gang leader has personally presided over the recruitment work in order to resist the Song Dynasty for several days, and he almost died at night...... He would be very sad if he found out!"
"Why aren't we like this?" Li Zhongyu said with a wry smile, "Speaking of which, I'm really sorry for Xiaoyue. He is so concerned about our Tang Kingdom, but his father and emperor surrendered without a fight, it is indeed a sigh!"
Of course, Han Xiaoyue pinned her hopes on the battle of Tanzhou, washed away the shame of Jiangyuan City, and did a huge preparation work. Even in order to make progress in recruitment, he personally broke into Yeguiling and almost died in an ambush by the Song soldiers. All this he did was nothing more than to have more chances of winning in the future war, so that the people of Tanzhou would not be slaughtered like Jiangyuan City. However, the edict of the emperor of the Tang State was helpless, and he said that it would be surrendered.
Han Xiaoyue was still in Chunxiangju, and Dongfang Li passed on all his internal skills to him. After the incident, Dongfang Lichang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xiaoyue, you can see it." You have had some foundations in your body before, and it is obvious that you have suffered serious internal injuries, which has led to the loss of internal strength. And your cultivation of the Sword Hua Benji has greatly increased your internal strength, and your explosive power is amazing when fighting against others, but this explosive power cannot be sustained, so it is easy to be injured by yourself. Being a brother will only pass on some internal skills to you, but if you don't start from the basics in the future, it will be easy to go mad and hurt your life, do you understand?"
Han Xiaoyue nodded and said, "Big brother, what you said is exactly what your younger brother Dongfang Ba said. When I fought him, I competed for internal strength, and that's what he said. Dongfang Li smiled and said: "My younger brother still said this? It seems that he still admires you a little in his heart, which is really rare! Where is he now?"
Han Xiaoyue said: "He was stabbed by Yan'er, he should have left Tanzhou and returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons!" Dongfang Li nodded and said, "Okay." Now that he's injured, he won't trouble you again for a while. As he spoke, he looked at He Fengjun, who was quiet beside him, and said, "Xiaoyue, I know a secluded place in the south of the city for my brother." Later, you go and dig a deep pit two people wide, and you will be buried together with Feng Jun for your brother and Feng Jun. Remember, don't make any markups, because you don't want anyone to bother. ”
Han Xiaoyue exclaimed: "Big brother, you are in good health, how can you ......" The implication of the words, Dongfang Li is still alive, how can he be buried alive? Dongfang Li waved his hand and said: "Xiaoyue, since Brother Wei and Feng Jun have met, they can't be separated for a while. Listen to your brother's words. Feng Jun has gone to that world now, and she is anxiously waiting for me at the moment. In this world, there is nothing to be nostalgic for as a brother, why do you still live alone in the world?"
"You still have me and Jing Xian!"
Dongfang Li listened to this, and laughed and said: "You are still young, how can you delay me, an old man? Now that you have no skill as a brother, living is a burden." As he spoke, he patted Han Xiaoyue's hand and said, "Xiaoyue, please let your brother down for the last time, don't disappoint your brother!"
Han Xiaoyue listened, and two lines of tears slowly fell. From the first side outside Liangcheng, there has been a friendship for nearly three years now. Although Dongfang Li is old, he has always promoted himself in the way of a brother. I haven't repaid him yet, but it's time to send him off for the last time. At present, Dongfang Li's last wish is to ask him to bury him alive with his own hands! This is something that cannot be accepted under any circumstances.
Dongfang Li continued: "Xiaoyue, you don't have a burden. If you can't do it, just call Dafa!" Han Xiaoyue shook her head and said, "Of course, this kind of thing has to be done by brothers. As he spoke, he was entangled in his heart for a moment, and looked up at Dongfang Lidao, "Big brother, leave this matter to me!" Dongfang Li nodded and smiled: "You and I only have a few days of brotherhood, and we are content with my brother." As he spoke, he got up and picked up He Fengjun and said, "Then let's go!"
The three of them walked out of Chunxiangju one after the other and walked to the south of the city. Dongfang Li is very familiar with Tanzhou City, and it is not difficult to find this secluded place. Dongfang Li looked at the two weeping willows and said, "This is it." These two willow trees come in pairs, and few people come, so bury the two of us here!" he said, sitting on the side and putting He Fengjun on his lap. Of course he wouldn't have covered her with mud.
Han Xiaoyue replied yes, borrowed two shovels from the people, and dug a deep pit with Long Yan.
The two dug a deep pit under the two weeping willows that was large enough to lay down the two of them. Dongfang Li picked up He Fengjun and jumped down. He first put He Fengjun down and lay down, tidied up his clothes, and wiped his face clean. Then he dusted off his body, tidied up his clothes, and lay down on her right side side side side with her, raising his eyes to look at Han Xiaoyue outside the pit.
Han Xiaoyue's face was facing away from the sun, but Dongfang Li couldn't see his face clearly, and said with a slight smile: "Xiaoyue, let's leave for my brother! Tomorrow you buy a drunken fairy duck and Tanxiang red and put them here, and the right to do a memorial! Remember, you have to take care of yourself and Miss Yan'er, do you understand?" Seeing him nod, Dongfang Li closed his eyes with satisfaction, and held He Fengjun's right hand tightly with his left hand. The two fingers were interlocked, and finally there was nothing left to separate them.
Han Xiaoyue and Long Yan had already cried into tears, although the two of them were sad in their hearts, they didn't dare to cry. The two glanced at each other, and Han Xiaoyue raised a shovel to shovel up the soil and sprinkle it into the deep pit. Long Yan saw that Han Xiaoyue was like this, so she also sprinkled the soil into it. A moment later, Dongfang Li and He Fengjun were covered with a thin layer of soil. The two looked at Dongfang Li and He Fengjun in the pit, but they didn't move. He Fengjun, who was originally expressionless, had a smile on his face at the moment, presumably, the two of them had already met in that world.
"Brother Xiaoyue, I'm ......" Long Yan said, and finally couldn't hold back any longer, threw the shovel aside and said, "I can't do it!" Seeing Long Yan squatting on the ground with her back to the deep pit and sobbing, Han Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yan'er, this is the last wish of the eldest brother, and I have to fulfill it for him even if I shed tears." As he spoke, he wiped the tears from his face, raised his shovel, and sped up even more.
