Chapter 43: Anger

On the banks of the Li River, the grass is green.

Qixian people rely on it to draft water, when the year is bad, they will also pay tribute to the dragon king, there is a small dragon king temple by the stream, even if it is a disaster year, there is incense to worship.

Today's Lixi is more lively, with a rolling crowd, and it seems that people from the entire county have gathered together.

This stream is really not a good water, even if it is a little longer, it occasionally breaks off, and many people are afraid that they have never even heard of its name, but it is just a nameless stream.

The reason why it is called Lixi is because it is said that it is actually of the same origin as the Li River that stretches from the south of the border, so it has the same name.

Even the Li River is little known, and now the creek can have the liveliness it has now, and if the stream has a spirit, I am afraid it will be very happy.

Hongchen sat in Grandpa Xue's carriage, leaned over very low-key, and followed his old man to get off the car and go up to the high platform, overlooking the panorama.

This platform was built for half a day, but it is high and wide, all of which are made of fine wood, and there are many flowers offered by unknown families around it, all of which are extraordinary.

Even the orchids planted by Hongchen himself are in the most conspicuous position, and they seem to be very well raised, but they are also grateful to Xue Gonggong.

"Amitabha! Xue Gong is polite. ”

As soon as he found a place to sit down, Master Sanyi was dressed in a robe and holding a magic staff, walked up slowly, and walked to Xue Gonggong's side.

The two of them are obviously familiar with each other, but the current occasion is too uncomfortable, and Grandpa Xue frowned when he saw him: "How can you ...... What the hell? ”

Such flattery is disdainful of the monks, so they are not afraid of making the world laugh?

When Master Sanyi heard this, he sighed: "If I don't do it, will I still let Senior Brother Mad offend King Li?" ”

He was rescued by the mad monk of Puji Temple more than a year ago, and during his recuperation, he found that this middle-aged man who had died eighty percent was well versed in Buddhism, and he pleaded bitterly, saying that he had nothing to do with the world, and only hoped to take refuge in Buddhism.

The mad monk was moved by compassion, and also had a sense of pity, and the substitute teacher took him under his disciple and made him a monk of this Puji Temple.

In just one year, this master of the three hatreds was more popular than the mad monk, after all, he had good looks and good demeanor, and he was not as crazy as the mad monk, so it was naturally easier for the believers to be convinced.

"Hey, King Li came to the door, someone had to do it for him."

The monk smiled bitterly, "Even the Buddha, everything can't go well, not to mention that although I am in the Buddha Gate, after all, I can't become a Buddha...... Why did Xue Gong take such a beautiful woman to get involved in this mess of troubled waters, he should have dodged. ”

Gonggong Xue glared at Hongchen, he didn't say anything, he couldn't say that he was an old man, he couldn't be a little girl, and he was fooled into agreeing to bring this child over to stir up the situation? He is also a little afraid of whether it is good or not, King Li is not easy to provoke.

"It's not easy for you!"

He heard that the three hated monks were here to repay their kindness, and the monks were empty of the five aggregates, but in the world, it was difficult not to be burdened by friendship, for the sake of Puji Temple, for the sake of the temple, it was absolutely impossible for him to watch the mad monk refuse King Li.

The two looked at each other and sighed, but Hongchen stared at Master Sanyi for a long time.

"I remember that there is a secret technique in Beiyan Leiyin Temple, which can capture the soul of a dying beast and refine it into a spirit servant, but the soul is fragile and hurts the heavens, and then let Mr. Liao, the great master of the Great Zhou, knock on the door and burn all the relevant classics, which is lost, a few days ago, the little girl met a tiger in Cangqingshan, a leopard, although it looks like a living being, but there is no life, I don't know if it is a certain master of Leiyin Temple?"

The three were stunned for a moment, and then stroked his snow-white beard for a while.

"Leiyin Temple has long been destroyed in the war, and the monks are also dead, scattered, even if there are remnants, it is impossible to come to Dazhou!"

"Yes."

Hongchen smiled, and suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in his ears, so he turned his head to look at the audience.

His Royal Highness King Li has arrived.

Looking around, the little marquis Xue Baiqiao was sitting not far away, holding a bunch of grapes in his mouth, but he didn't eat it, and his face was a little sad.

Hongchen looked carefully, and felt a little disappointed, Senior Brother Lin Xu didn't come, she missed him very much, every time she saw him, her heart was settled.

"Help...... Let go of my ......"

There was a faint scream in his ears, his voice was dry, hoarse and ugly, as if he hadn't drunk water for half a month.

Hongchen poked his head down with great interest, and then saw an attendant beside King Li, with a zongzi hanging upside down on his horse.

It was Xia Shijie.

The others were not tied up very strongly, but the clothes on their bodies were black and messy, and their hair was scattered, and the whole person was weak.

King Li didn't give him a look, and the guards around him threw him to the ground casually.

Many people were amazed and couldn't help but point.

Xia Shijie stiffened suddenly, closed his mouth, and trembled with anger.

Hongchen felt that if this person died, maybe he would not be tortured to death, or he would die of shame.

He is the eldest son of the Xia family, when did he suffer such humiliation!

Probably in the face of so many people, he couldn't bear it anymore, broke the jar, didn't plead, and shouted loudly: "King Li, as a prince, you actually humiliated those girls, Miss Shufen is only fourteen years old, what is her sin?" Do you still have any royal dignity? Hmph, with a general like you, presumably your Zhenbei army is also a beast, and the court is in great misfortune! ”

King Li originally ignored him, but at this time he suddenly turned his head and sneered, his voice was neither high nor low, but it was full of mockery.

"Great misfortune? Over the years, your noble sons in the capital, walking in the horse and Zhangtai, wanton and amorous, for the sake of the famous prostitutes in the Qinglou, spending a lot of money, living a life of lustful dogs and horses, do you know, how did these good days come back? As for the innocence you said, I only saw them carrying weapons on their bodies to kill my soldiers, they were dressed in fine clothes and food, and they didn't even have the jewelry on their bodies, why? In order for the heroic souls of the soldiers to return to their hometowns, I killed a few prisoners who were already extremely sinful and deserving of death, even if it was brutal? Then if I chop you today, is it inhumane? ”

Xia Shijie's face turned red with anger: "You are strong!" ”

"I think it doesn't matter if you die ten or eight like you." King Li chuckled.

Before the words fell, a guard next to him, at some point, had an extra axe in his hand, and cut it towards Xia Shijie's head.

In an instant, this noble son could even say 'the flower is discolored'.

Hongchen flicked Qingfeng.

A sword aura, accompanied by a light sound, actually made the guard faint, and the axe in his hand shifted, grazing Xia Shijie's head and sliding to the ground.

King Li also turned his head, and saw the girl who had guided him walk down generously.

"What His Royal Highness King Li said is good, Xia Shijie's death is not a pity, but the Xia family is not just the powerful in your mouth, in the third year of Yongping, Beiyan took advantage of the civil strife in my Great Zhou Dynasty to invade the north, King Li led all the soldiers to meet the enemy, but was blocked by the great grandmaster of Beiyan Li Tao, all the generals were in danger, it was the great elder of the Xia family who led the thirteen most outstanding disciples to rush to the northern Xinjiang, and the disciples threw themselves into the fire, refining the arrows that could restrain the great master, which forced him to retreat......"
