Li Qi heard a story, a story imagined by Xiahou Zhuo, a story that made people speechless for a long time after listening to it.

I don't know how long it took before Li Qi slowly exhaled a breath, but he still felt that something was blocked in his heart.

"If there is anyone in the world who is sanctified by the sword, it can only be him."

Li Qi got up, walked to the window, held his hand and looked outside, there was snow that had not melted, it turned out that the snow in early winter was not to welcome anything, but to see him off.

Yu Jiuling was also silent for a long time, and then muttered to himself: "I really want to know his name." ”

Xiahou Zhuo said: "The only person who knows his name is the current emperor Yang Jing. ”

Yu Jiuling said: "But shouldn't such a hero let his name be known to the world?" ”

"It shouldn't."

Xiahou Zhuo replied quickly.

Yu Jiuling was stunned, and just as he was about to refute, he heard Xiahou Zhuo say five words, and these five words pressed all Yu Jiuling's words back, and the pressure was firm.

"Because we're weak."

These five words are like a mountain pressing down on people's hearts, and like a knife poking at people's hearts, heavy and painful.

"Because we are weak ......"

Yu Jiuling repeated it to herself, and the whole person looked depressed, and there was unspeakable resentment in this depression.

Xiahou said: "If my Central Plains country is strong, the name of this hero will inevitably be known to the world, but our country is weak, and we can't admit it if we dare to admit it." ”

Yu Jiuling said with some annoyance: "But even if we don't admit it, won't the black warriors come to fight us?" ”

Mimi Reading APP

"Will come and fight."

Xiahou said: "But it's different. ”

Yu Jiuling said: "It's nothing more than a death, what's the difference." ”

Xiahou Zhuo said: "There are tens of thousands of soldiers in northern Xinjiang, and it is different for them...... If the imperial court admits it, the one who kills the invincible Dashi is the Chu people, how will the black warriors fight? If the court doesn't admit it, how will the black warriors fight? ”

Yu Jiuling said: "I'm stupid, I can't think of so much." ”

Xiahou Zhuo said: "If you admit it, even if the black warriors are blocked in the south, no matter how big the losses are, they will break through the border pass in the corpse mountain and sea of blood." ”

"This kind of great enmity, once all the people in the Black Martial Arts know about it, even if the Black Martial Court doesn't want to fight so hard, they can't beat it so hard, because they can't suppress the anger of the Black Martial People."

"And if they don't admit it, they will go south and won't be able to break through our borders, so they will vent their anger elsewhere, or they will withdraw their troops as a show."

Xiahou Zhuo looked at Yu Jiuling and said seriously: "If it is the former, none of the tens of thousands of border pass soldiers can live, and the black warriors will go south regardless of the cost, can the border pass really be held?" ”

Yu Jiuling opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.

After a long time, Yu Jiuling looked up to the sky and shouted: "It's so wronged! ”

After this roar, the room fell silent, no one was talking, even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.

After a long time, Xiahou Zhuo said in a deep voice: "That's why you have to become stronger." ”

Half an hour later, in the main hall of the Jiedu Embassy, Li Qi put a tablet he had made himself on the offering table.

The words on the tablet were also written by him...... The spirit seat of the first swordsman in the Central Plains.

He led everyone to bow down in front of the tablet three times, and then everyone stepped forward in turn and put incense in the incense burner in front of the tablet.

"Think more...... In the future, whatever we Central Plains people do, we can say it in a righteous and bright way, and let the world know it in a righteous and bright way. ”

Yu Jiuling walked to the door and sat on the steps and muttered to himself.

"I can't stand this kind of grievance."

After a moment, he suddenly stood up, raised his finger to the north, and shouted, "Yes! It was killed by us Central Plains people! It is! ”

Shouting so loudly, but it seems so weak.

An hour later, on the streets of Jizhou City, Xiahou Zhuo and Li Qi walked side by side.

Maybe it's because of the rigid

The atmosphere just now was indeed a little depressing, and Xiahou Zhuo said that he wanted to go out for a walk, so Li Qi accompanied him out.

The two of them were also aimless, so they walked like this for a while, and suddenly saw a street corner.

Xiahou Zhuo stopped and smiled: "Do you remember that place?" ”

Li Qi snorted: "You almost let people die, it was I who showed my might and saved you." ”

He made a joke, it seemed that it was also because his mood was too depressed.

Xiahou snorted, but did not continue to refute.

That time, he and Li Qi were deceived separately, he wanted to save Li Qi, and Li Qi wanted to save him.

"Let's go back to the academy and have a look."

Xiahou said: "I haven't been to see it for a long time. ”

Li Qi snorted: "But the academy is empty, and the former academy disciples have gone their separate ways, and even the dean doesn't want to go back." ”

The two of them walked to the gate of the academy, but found that the noodle shop not far from the academy was still open.

Xiahou said: "Go and find the taste of the past." ”

Li Qi shook his head: "You don't have to go, it's just open, but you don't do business, if you don't divide the grain before, the shopkeeper won't be able to open the pot, where is there any surplus grain to sell noodles." ”

Xiahou Zhuo sighed heavily.

"Lost a child."

"Huh?"

"I always thought that the court could still save it."

"I know, otherwise why do you want to go to Northern Xinjiang, in addition to the national righteousness, you also have some hope for the imperial court in your heart."

"Not now."

Xiahou Zhuo looked at Li Qi and said: "I have told you countless times, if it is not broken or established, if such a court is still there, the Central Plains will not be saved, but I ...... in my heart."

He never admitted it, and never mentioned it, at the end of the day, his father was a prince of the royal family, surnamed Yang.

Xiahou said: "After the spring warms up next year, the black warriors will definitely go south, but they won't really fight hard." ”

Li Qi nodded: "I understand, no matter who ascends to the throne of the Black Warrior Khan, you must first seek a stable word, if you win, it's fine, if you lose the army, you don't know how many people will scold, if someone takes advantage of the situation against him, the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Xiahou said: "I mean ......"

Li Qi nodded again: "I understand, you are in the way, I will fight." ”

Xiahou snorted and raised his head to look at the sky.

What he means is that I will block the black warriors, and you will fight the rivers and mountains of the Central Plains, and the only thing I can do is to let you have no worries.

Long.

Xiahou Zhuo suddenly smiled and said, "Go back in a while, let Aunt Wu make dumplings and eat them in the evening." ”

Li Qi said: "The dumplings can be put away, when will you find me a sister-in-law?" ”

Xiahou Zhuo pouted and said, "Why do you sound so awkward......

Li Qi snorted: "You know how worried our mother is about you, if you marry a wife and have children as soon as possible, our mother will also have a heart." ”

Xiahou Zhuo shook his head and said, "Who do you say I brought to that kind of place in Northern Xinjiang?" It's not fair to anyone. ”

Li Qi said: "Otherwise, you can go to the Taoist Temple of Fengming Mountain to ask for a marriage." ”

Xiahou Zhuo said: "Can you still manage this over there?" Does it work? ”

Li Qi said: "Just replaced by our own people, it's hard to say whether it works or not, but you can say whatever you want to hear." ”

Xiahou Zhuo squinted his eyes at Li Qi: "You even robbed the Taoist temple?" ”

Li Qi said: "Where is not even, I am flat." ”

Xiahou Zhuo felt that these eight words were a bit interesting.

Li Qi said: "I have raised a lot of money, grain and materials, and after the spring of next year, I can start recruiting craftsmen and people to build granaries in northern Xinjiang." ”

Xiahou said: "Fundraising? ”

Li Qi nodded: "Large-scale fundraising." ”

Xiahou said: "How many families have you deceived?" ”

Li Qi smiled

"It's not interesting to cheat more......"

Xiahou Zhuo suddenly raised his hand and patted Li Qi on the shoulder: "You hurry up and marry Miss Gao." ”

Li Qi was stunned, looked at Xiahou Zhuo and asked, "What are you doing when you suddenly talk about this?" ”

Xiahou Zhuo said: "If you marry a wife and have children, our mother will be happy in her heart." ”

Li Qi asked: "Then my child, is his surname Xiahou?" ”

Xiahou Zhuo was stunned, then raised his hand and knocked on Li Qi's skull: "You are talking really...... Poke people's hearts. ”

Li Qi said: "In fact, there is another business in the cheap...... Although he is specialized but not refined, he is professional. ”

Xiahou Zhuo: "Huh? ”

After a moment, he reacted: "Get out!" ”

The two walked into the academy, and it was not an exaggeration to say that the academy was deserted, and it had long been uncleaned, and it looked particularly depressed.

Fortunately, there was a snow that covered a lot of wild grass, and there were only the footprints of the two of them on the snow.

"The days go by so fast."

Xiahou Zhuo said: "At that time, you were still a little child, and you were known by the people of the academy because you could eat. ”

Li Qi said: "And you are a stinky and shameless person, you can still go back if you give money." ”

Xiahou said: "How good are you?" ”

Li Qi said: "Before I came to Jizhou, I was a good and good young man, just because I knew you, and now they all say that I am thick-skinned and black-hearted. ”

Xiahou said: "Then you still don't thank me." ”

Li Qi laughed and shook his head: "Don't say thank you." ”

He asked Xiahou Zhuo: "How many days do you want to stay?" ”

Xiahou said: "A few days...... Is the Twin Star Building still there? ”

Li Qi: "Get out of ......"

The Twin Star Building is really still there.

That night, Xiahou Zhuo went with Yu Jiuling and others, but Li Qi and Tang Bidi did not go.

In the courtyard, Li Qi and Tang were practicing two people, one was practicing knife and the other was practicing marksmanship.

Li Qi loves the new knife the most, whether it is heavy or sharp, it is the best product.

The rebuilt knife looks the same as the standard horizontal knife, but it is about two inches longer and weighs dozens of pounds.

"Hey!"

Li Qi looked at Tang Pidi and asked, "Xiahou, they went to the Shuangxing Tower, why don't you go?" ”

Tang Pi said, "Why don't you go?" ”

Li Qi said: "Why don't I go, you don't count in your heart?" ”

Tang Pi said: "Why don't I go...... It's because I'm thinking about Xiahou and Ninth Sister. ”

Li Qi said: "What's the explanation? ”

Tang Pi said: "If they go in, come out after a while, find a place to eat and drink, and wait until they fall asleep, but I still haven't come out......"

Li Qi didn't wait for him to finish, picked up the stone lock and was about to smash it.

Tang Pi said: "Why did this also hurt you?" ”

Li Qi said: "Two cucumber eggs, what does it mean to say this." ”

Don laughed.

After practicing, Tang Pidi grabbed the towel on the shelf next to him and threw one to Li Qi.

"I'm going to Nalan Grassland in two days."

He looked at Li Qi and said with a smile, "Take your silver." ”

Li Qi said curiously: "Didn't you say that it is not appropriate to build cavalry now?" Those new armies can't even fight, and it's even more difficult for them to ride horses, so why do they suddenly have to go? ”

Tang Pidi sighed: "You scumbag, you said you didn't ask me how to spend the money." ”

Li Qi glanced at him, and said with a smile after a moment: "I can't control you, people like you should find a more powerful woman to take care of you." ”

Tang Pi said: "Which woman can control me?" Thinking about it, I think it's impossible, if you can find it, why don't I marry. ”

Li Qi said: "Don't you forget, there is a professional ...... in the cheap"
