Chapter 35: I Believe It Anyway
At the end of the battle, the soldiers began to clean the battlefield, this time the Shifu and the tricolor stone can be said to have suffered heavy losses, the soldiers carried the bodies of their comrades and enemies in pairs to bury, and treated the wounded, everyone was solemn. But every time someone looked at me, always smiled or bowed in return, I withstood the pressure and shot the killer of the tricolor stone, and unexpectedly won the love of the soldiers.
A few days later, the Shi Mansion had been cleaned up, and on the surface, it was no longer obvious that there had been a cruel battle here, but the guards of the Shi Mansion had something more in their eyes, some heavy, some majestic, and the pride of being the Shi family's guards.
On this day, I was gossiping with the green calyx, and the day after the tricolor stone attacked Shifu, I asked someone to pick up the green calyx, and the other three ladies stayed in Shi Dong's outer house Guizhi, saying that they wanted to stay for a few days, the reason was that they got along with Guizhi very happily, and the sisters couldn't bear to be separated. At this moment, a guard stood at the gate of the courtyard and said loudly: "Report to the fifth young master, the old lady asks you to come over and talk." ”
I went out and asked him to lead the way, and the guard looked respectful and led me all the way to the place where Shi Cundao was temporarily at home to handle official business.
Halfway through, I saw a group of servants gathered in one place, and there was a person in the circle who was like a river: "...... At this moment, the Fifth Young Master also came out of nowhere, which startled me, I was lying in the grass at that time, where did I think that he was coming back to help, and I also asked the Fifth Young Master to hide with me. ”
The crowd of onlookers suddenly burst into laughter, and the man in the circle continued: "The fifth young master looked around, and saw that I was about to pass by with a dung spoon in my hand--you also know what happened later, and the fifth young master used it to kill many people with three-color stones...... Just scoop and splash like this, no one can dodge! ”
Someone in the crowd asked, "Now what about the dung spoon?" ”
"That's my baby, I've washed it and put it away, and it will be my heirloom in the future, and when I die, I pass it on to my son, and when my son dies, pass it on to my grandson!"
I pushed everyone away: "Little Bean, are you talking about storytelling again?" ”
When Xiaodouzi saw that it was me, he said excitedly: "Fifth young master, are you here?" ”
As soon as the subordinates saw me, they came over to salute, six points of respect and four points of affection, these people are different from the guards, the guards regard death as home, but the subordinates may not have such an awareness, so the guards read the fifth young master is to raise their eyebrows for their brothers, but what they think is that the fifth young master saved their own life.
Say goodbye to the servants, I followed the guard straight to Shi Cundao's house, as soon as I walked to the door, I snorted violently, it was a familiar refreshing smell of tobacco, I walked in to take a look, and saw Shi Cundao sitting behind a wide table with a cigarette pouch, snorting cigarettes leisurely, seeing me come in, he smiled and said, "Sit down." ”
I sat across from the old man and said with a smile, "Grandpa isn't busy today?" ”
Shi Cundao waved his hand: "There is still time to chat with my grandson if I am not busy." ”
I looked around and said, "Grandpa, did you tell us something?" ”
Shi Cun said: "Don't look at it, let's just do it today." ”
"Oh." I sniffled vigorously and waited for the rest of the story.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Shi Cundao smiled and said, "You don't have anything to tell me?" ”
"Uh...... Where to start? "I naturally know the purpose of the old man coming to me, after a grandson of his own waste wood ran away from home, he cultivated for a thousand miles, and at the last moment he actually turned into a sword saint, this incident shocked the old man only to be no less than Wei Wuji with the three-color stone pouring into the nest, these days Shi Cundao has not inquired about me, and no one in the Shi family has talked to me, probably waiting for me to take the initiative to give them an explanation.
And I also have my difficulties, although I have made a plan with Prince Yun as early as the border of the Eighteen Kingdoms, but when it comes to the end, it is still too abrupt, you know, from the sword boy to the sword student, and then to the swordsman can barely be explained with outstanding talent, then the sudden transformation to the sword saint is simply too against the sky, which is not even a simple relationship between quantitative change and qualitative change, which is incomprehensible in the thinking mode of people on the mainland, considering these, I asked for the surname and said with a heart: "Grandpa, in fact, I lied to you." ”
Shi Cun said: "What's the matter? ”
I said, "Actually...... I'm not a Juggernaut. ”
Shi Cundao said firmly: "No, this will not be wrong, I obviously felt your sword qi that day, and if you didn't use the cultivation of the Sword Saint to fight against Wei Wuji, you wouldn't be able to fight him in three moves and two ways, let alone beat him away." ”
"This ...... When I lied to you, I said that I wasn't a Juggernaut at all, I was ...... I'm the Sword God! ”
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" The old man was choked by a puff of cigarette and almost choked his eyes: "What did you say?" ”
"Do you remember a man on the border of the Eighteen Nations who split a mountain with one hand?"
“…… That, that? ”
"That's right, that person is me!" Instead of hiding it, it is better to give the old man a dose of fierce medicine, anyway, my identity is also to be clarified, so it is better to take this opportunity to pour it out at once.
Shi Cundao's eyes widened and he was speechless, and he muttered for a long time: "What happened?" ”
I didn't hesitate to say: "The last time I left home after walking all the way, one day I suddenly had a dream, after waking up I felt that something was not quite right, that day I happened to rush to the foot of the camel mountain, and learned that Hegis was besieging the Feifeng army, thinking that Hegis was a friend or foe, and as soon as he went down, the camel mountain was broken. ”
Shi Cundao gasped: "That's it? ”
I spread my hands and said, "That's it." ”
Shi Cundao asked, "How did you feel after that dream?" ”
I said, "I don't feel it in particular, it doesn't hurt or itch, it's just that there is often a breath of qi running in the dantian, and I later learned that it was sword qi, and this thing is not working from time to time." ”
Shi Cun said: "Then your strange moves......"
I said, "I told my grandfather that watching the mountains is a part, and most of them seem to be able to do it myself, and when others beat me, I naturally have a way to deal with it, which is really weird." ”
Shi Cundao silently knocked the cigarette ash on the corner of the table, as if he was thinking, and then he slapped the table suddenly: "The reincarnation of the Sword God!" ”
I was so happy in my heart, Zhao Benshan said it well, and I found it myself-I asked in a fake way: "What is the reincarnation of the Sword God?" ”
Shi Cun said: "More than 20 years ago, there was a sword god on the mainland, when the two continents were in full swing, Hegis had the upper hand, this person relied on one person and one sword, and split the Black Osguna Mountain, Hegis had to withdraw his troops, and he also died because of the collapse of the meridians, and later people found out that although the sword god died, his power was not destroyed...... So the old Shi Yuanyuan told me the legend again, and it was similar to what I heard in Su Jing, it seems that this story is not known to everyone on the continent, But it's no secret at the top in several countries.
Shi Cundao spoke eloquently, and finally concluded: "Now it seems that the only explanation is that the power of the Sword God has re-recognized the master, and its new owner is you!" In other words, you are the reincarnation of the Sword God! ”
I was shocked and said, "So that's the case?" ”
Shi Cundao got up suddenly, paced around the room with his hands behind his back, and kept muttering, "Sword God...... Sword God ......" Finally, he suddenly stood in place and laughed loudly, "It turns out that my grandson is actually a sword god!" ”
I had to stand up and say, "Grandpa, are you okay?" ”
Shi Cundao rushed to me with an arrow, grabbed my shoulder and said, "You sit down, let me ask you, does anyone else know about this matter?" ”
"No, I've only told you about one person."
Shi Cundao nodded, and suddenly frowned again: "It's not good, I'm afraid this matter won't be hidden for long." ”
"Why?"
Shi Cun said: "You defeated Wei Wuji in front of everyone, that can't be covered up in any way, even if we don't say it, the Binding Divine Guard will have to find the root after investigation, and I need to explain the truth of this matter to the emperor." ”
I pretended to be confused and said, "Didn't you say that if this matter is made public, it will be bad for me?" ”
Shi Cundao said with a smile: "Silly boy, I didn't say that I was afraid of interfering with your cultivation before, but now that you have reached the peak, what are you afraid of?" Besides-" Shi Cundao's expression turned solemn, "Besides, the matter is big, grandpa doesn't dare to be selfish, the new sword god, this is a far-reaching event for the entire continent, we don't know, if it is kept secret, the emperor will also be suspicious!" ”
"What suspicions?"
Shi Cundao put his hands together and said word by word: "Gorou, do you know how heavy the burden is on your shoulders?" ”
I smiled and said, "The burden is not heavy, but grandpa's hands are heavy." ”
Shi Cundao smiled and let go, and then said solemnly: "As a sword god, it is not your business alone, from now on, the safety of the Honglie Empire, the lives of millions of soldiers are on your shoulders alone!" ”
I shook my head and said, "It's your responsibility." "Take advantage of this opportunity to give a small ass on the back...... Shi Cundao looked at me with a pair of eyes earnestly, even a little hot and flattering, as if I were his grandfather: "Gorou, do you know what my biggest expectations are for your father and the eldest brother and second brother? ”
I shook my head.
"I hope that they can fight bravely and take the lead, and in my lifetime, one or two talents can be produced to take over the handsome seal in my hand and magnify the lintel of my historian's house."
I said perfunctorily, "It will work, no problem......"
Shi Cundao said loudly: "Then do you know what I expect from you? ”
I said, "You hope that I will study hard every day and make progress every day, and I will be able to take the examination for a civil service and a civilian job in the military department." ”
Shi Cundao smiled: "It was really like this before. He gritted his teeth and said, "But now, I hope that you can lead the three armies to the capital of Hejis, and snow the shame of my Honglie's repeated defeats over the years, and even after destroying Hejis, I will sweep the world and unify the continent, and create an unprecedented prosperous era for my Honglie Empire and my historian!" ”
My heart suddenly cooled half, the old man who dared to love history is also a war maniac, sweeping the world, then it is inevitable to meet with the eighteen countries and my mother, the purpose of my visit this time is for him and my mother to alliance.
Shi Cundao was stunned when he saw me, and then said: "Of course, the world or something is a matter of the future, the current top priority is to guard against the attack of Heggis, if the soldiers of the three armies know that there is a sword god leading the way in front of their heads, it will be greatly boosted, and Hegis is very insignificant." ”
I said, "But grandpa, I don't know how to fight." ”
Shi Cundao said without thinking: "The sword god back then would not fight, and the strength of Hegis after he tried to split the Black Osguna Mountain was still stronger than ours, but the reason why they were defeated was because the army's spirit was broken, and now it is the same reason." ”
I sighed secretly, it turned out that Shi Cundao and Su Jing had the same thoughts, and they both wanted me to be a vase, so I said tentatively: "Why don't we form an alliance with the daughter country?" ”
Shi Cun said: "It's not easy to say, after the alliance, will we help them or will they help us?" ”
I said, "Naturally, whoever is in trouble will help whom." ”
Shi Cundao smiled slightly: "Child's words, the national strength of the Federation Continent is only equal to ours, mutual assistance must take into account the problem of one and the other, rather than looking like a god is better to fight separately, if there is no Heggis containment, our two families may have already attacked, what alliance to talk about?" ”
I still want to say something, but I found that Shi Cundao is simple and simple, I can't refute it, the so-called between countries has no eternal friends and no eternal enemies, only eternal interests, this is a truth, Shi Cundao wants to unify the continent, my mother may not have turned such a thought in her heart, if she really didn't think about it, it can only mean that she is an unqualified general, as a commander, she can't be wrong in times of peace.
Shi Cundao looked at me and smirked a few times, and suddenly became excited, to be honest, I was furious by him in my heart. In fact, the reason I made up has no technical content, but the facts are in front of me, and it is up to me to say, Shi Cundao is not a fool, on the contrary, he is very shrewd, but no matter how shrewd a person is, he also has blind spots in his knowledge field, and there have only been three sword gods on the mainland and I have only appeared so far, Shi Cundao does not doubt that I will lie to him, that is because he thinks I don't need to lie to him at all, and he doesn't know what is wrong with the power of the sword god passing on to me through dreams, maybe in his opinion, this is a good explanation for why I became a sword god, In fact, even if I said that I was choked and fell, and that's it, he could only listen and believe it.
Shi Cundao was stupid at me for a while, and suddenly said, "By the way, I have to tell your father and them the news quickly." "He ordered someone to find Shi Chi and Shi Diyan, and during this time, our grandparents and grandchildren chatted a few words.
"Hey, why are your eyebrows getting shorter?"
"Ahem, shaved."
"Why?"
"Ahem, don't ask."
"Huang Yifei hasn't bothered you these days, has he?"
"He didn't dare."
"Hey, I'm embarrassed for you, I'm one level higher than Wei Wuji and let him run away."
Shi Cundao lit another pot of cigarettes and said happily: "Gorou, do you know what made me most entangled in the past? ”
"About what?"
"Su Jing."
I scratched my head and said, "You are most entangled that she is not from the Honglie Empire." ”
"Wrong!" The old man smoked a cigarette and said, "What I'm most entangled in is not her country, but the sword god is actually a little girl, so it's okay now." ”
I pouted, the old man's patriarchal thinking was very serious, and I said, "If you keep saying that, the pressure on my third uncle is even greater." Then we chatted for a while, although there were many people who knew about the third child's outer house, no one had seen it, so even Shi Cundao couldn't hide his curiosity when he said it.
Shi Cundao saw that I was staring at his cigarette pouch incessantly, and handed it to me: "You have a bag?" ”
I was overjoyed, long before I came here, I didn't bring anything to prepare two cigarettes, but unfortunately I was soaked in water as soon as I came, so long I can only dry next to each other, today I saw Shi Cundao smoking pouches to know that there is tobacco in this world, and the gluttonous worm has already been hooked, and at this time I couldn't bear it anymore, and I took it and said: "I'll try." ”
Lao Shi saw two puffs of smoke coming out of my nostrils, and wondered, "When did you learn this?" ”
I said nonsense: "It may be that the Sword God would have been, and this ability has been passed on to me again." ”
Shi Cundao sighed with emotion: "The Sword God is really omnipotent!" ”
As a result, Shi Chi and I were smoking cigarettes one by one when they came. Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they saw me and Shi Cundao's brother going back and forth to let me smoke. Shi Cundao shook the prestige of his parents in front of everyone, he put his hands behind his back and said straight to the point: "Let me tell you one thing - Gorou is the reincarnation of the Sword God!" ”
“……”
Looking at everyone's shocked expressions, Shi Cundao added: "As for whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway." ”
Last week, with my mom they went to see her half-brother, who had never met (that is, my uncle), went to Hebei Province, and then went around in Tianjin and Beijing, booked the plane on the 24th, and then Yanjing rained heavily, and it was changed to the 27th. If you have the heart to come up and ask for a leave of absence, I am afraid that you will scold me...... This line led to the following consequences: 1, 10 days without update. 2, my second uncle became my third uncle. 3. Fully understand the specific meaning of the word "submerged".
For the 723 incident, I can only say that I wish the deceased rest in peace, and the living mourn, I didn't want to write about such a disturbing thing, so let's take it as a memorial.
Allergies officially started today, and finally steady. Number of sneezes: 13Allergy index: ★ ☆☆☆☆ Intensity: ★ ☆☆☆☆
