Chen Guanxi couldn't sleep all night, and one day he heard that there was a Taoist temple on Yan Mountain that was very effective, so he went to the Taoist temple to inquire about his situation. The old Taoist priest saw that his eyes were sunken, and he stared at his face carefully for a long time before he said slowly: "Chen Jushi, it seems that the old Taoist priest has lost one of the three souls and seven spirits, so you are depressed all day long, and it is even difficult to sleep. The three souls are the three souls of heaven, earth and man, the soul of heaven is the soul of the innate soul, the soul of the innate is conducive to reincarnation, the soul of the earth is the soul of the underworld, and those who have the soul of the earth can enter the underworld after death, otherwise they are infernal ghosts, the soul of man is the soul of man, and only those who have a soul can live in the world for people. And the seven spirits are joy, anger, sorrow, love, and evil desires, among which each emotion has one soul, and they affect your mood. But now you've lost your joy, so you're not going to be happy and you're not going to laugh. When was the last time you had a good laugh, can you remember? ”

Chen Guanxi thought about it, shook his head and said, "It probably seems that the Qinglong Army has regained Longmen Pass, I seem to be smiling, I don't remember." ”

"Think about it again."

Chen Guanxi fell into deep thought, thinking carefully about the things that made him laugh, and suddenly thought that when he laughed, it was when he was in Longdu, Zhang Xiaowu made a central order, and divided the generals in the mansion, and he laughed at that time, as if he hadn't laughed for two years.

"It's been a long time." Lao Dao said.

Chen Guanxi shook his head and said, "I probably haven't been happy lately. ”

Lao Daoke: "Chen Jushi, I see that you seem to have some knots in your heart, can you tell me, why are you unhappy?" What is this knot? If you don't tell me, I'm afraid that I will prescribe medicine for you and summon your soul, which will be of no avail. ”

Chen Guanxi struggled for a long time before he said: "I personally set fire to Wuguan County, causing tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians to be burned to death. ”

The Taoist priest gasped, took out his right hand and began to calculate, but found that the more he calculated, the more amazing it became, and he said after a while: "Layman, you have killed too much because of your iniquity, and God has accepted your joy as a punishment, but I am afraid that I will not be able to do anything." I'm sorry, I'm sorry, although the old way is effective, but you can't go against the sky. ”

Chen Guanxi felt sad in his heart, but said: "Can I burn more paper money for them to atone for their sins?" ”

The Taoist priest shook his head and said: "Killing people to pay for their lives, paying off debts, you have already taken away other people's lives, even if you burn more paper money for them, will people forgive you?" God just took away your joy and didn't let you pay for their lives, and he was already tolerant of you. From now on, you will have no joy, no more joy. ”

Chen Guanxi said: "But...... I felt like they were punishing me and keeping me alive to suffer. ”

The Taoist priest shook his head and said no more.

Chen Guanxi sighed and left the Taoist temple, his mood became more and more sad, and even sometimes when he looked at people and things, he would be sad. When drinking with Paoze, because he doesn't like to talk and laugh all day long, others not only didn't notice anything wrong, but thought he was very normal, and just talking and laughing was stuffy. Even his good brother Wang Yijin didn't see it, but he just felt that these days, Chen Guanxi always seemed to like to talk to himself.

Perhaps in order to make up for the wrong things he did to Wuguan County, Chen Guanxi became more and more kind to the girl Yan Ling, he gave all his net worth assets to Yan Ling and let her take charge of the family finances.

Yan Ling, who was born as a prostitute in Qinglou, was moved by Chen Guanxi and became more and more obsessed with him, but found that he was unwilling to touch himself again. At first, Yan Ling only felt that he was tired from military affairs and had no energy, but then she found that Chen Guanxi had dodged her eye contact many times, and then she realized that something was wrong.

Yan Ling thought that Chen Guanxi was in love with someone else, so she was sad all day long, until one day she suddenly found out about her future this month, and hurriedly asked her wife for advice. The old woman brought a local doctor who specializes in diagnosing the pulse, and after the old doctor diagnosed the pulse, he congratulated and said, "Congratulations to this lady." You are happy, although it is only a month, but the pulse is stable and strong, you should be a strong young man. ”

"Congratulations to Mrs. Chen, congratulations to Mrs. Chen." The old woman immediately exclaimed, "Madame, happy, happy!" ”

Yan Ling was so happy that she immediately told Chen Guanxi in the evening, but Chen Guanxi didn't show surprise, just hugged Yan Ling with relief. Yan Ling thought he was very happy, and Chen Guanxi told her: "Tomorrow, I will advance the return to my hometown, which can be regarded as a plan for the child's future." ”

Yan Ling was strange: "You will make more money in the future, what is the advance." ”

Chen Guanxi did not speak.

The next day, Chen Guanxi came to the Qinglong Military Branch and inquired about the officer's return to his hometown. The clerk was taken aback, and hurriedly said, Lord Chen, according to your treatment, you can get three thousand taels of silver when you return to your hometown now, but do you need to take it now? Chen Guanxi did not hesitate to take away three thousand taels of silver, and handed it over to Yan Ling after returning home.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Xiaowu took his men out hunting, hunted a few deer, Zhang Xiaowu let people roast the deer, everyone watched the sunset drinking wine and singing, recalling everything that was good back then.

Suddenly, Chen Guanxi Ke Xia Ming: "What color do you see in the sky?" ”

"Blue, what's wrong?"

"How can I see it's gray?"

"Impossible." Xia Ming said, "It's obviously blue." ”

Chen Guanxi said stubbornly: "But what I see is gray." ”

"You stuffy bottle, you can tease me." Xia Ming laughed.

Chen Guanxi shook his head and continued to eat venison. On the way back, he felt as if something was tugging at his heart, his heart was very sad, and he even felt that it was better to have an arrow flying out on the road to shoot him, the world he saw was black and white, the sound he heard was chaotic, and he even felt that every flower, grass and tree was sad. He was in a very bad mood, but he had to pretend to be happy, whether it was by Yan Ling's side or in front of his colleagues.

One day, Chen Guanxi asked for instructions to hunt pirates on the beach, and Zhang Xiaowu allowed him to give 800 elite soldiers.

Eight hundred people lay in ambush on the seashore, waiting for the Fuso pirates to appear, and after waiting for a few days, the Fuso pirates finally appeared. When everyone was waiting for the Fusang people to enter the trap, Chen Guanxi suddenly pulled out his sword and rushed out, slashing and slashing in the crowd of Fusang warriors. The Fuso warriors were so frightened by his killing that they fled one after another, so the Blue Dragon Army defeated the Fuso pirates. This battle was all thanks to Chen Guanxi's bravery, but also because he suddenly killed and let some pirates escape in advance.

The generals celebrated Chen Guanxi's achievements, and Zhang Xiaowu personally awarded him a medal and named him a soldier in the Youzhou Coastal Guard Battalion, specifically responsible for fighting pirates.

Chen Guanxi came to the beach alone, he looked at the frozen sea, looked at the cold sea, and drank in a big gulp, he couldn't help but recall his life, and felt lifeless, so he slowly walked towards the sea.
