After Li Xiaofei finished reading the picture files of the Qingfeng View Cellar, he was stunned and almost fell into the cellar.

Above, Hua Xiaoan shouted towards the cellar mouth: "Old Prince Chen is here!" Master Li, come up! ”

Hearing that Chen Hongyi was coming, Li Xiaofei grabbed the wall, patted his head and walked towards the stairs.

"Old Lord Chen, Master Li will come up soon, you sit first!" Hearing this, Chen Hongyi had already come in

"You're up there, I'll go down, I have something to say to this kid!"

As soon as the words fell, Chen Hongyi went down to the cellar and happened to collide with Li Xiaofei.

Li Xiaofei was so frightened that he took two steps back, "Master, why did you come down!" ”

"Haha, it seems that you already know everything, and some words can't see the sun, so I can only talk to you here" Chen Hongyi still had that smile

Li Xiaofei was a little hesitant, more afraid, it seemed that Chen Hongyi had always known his whereabouts and even his every move.

"Master, what I know is not something that cannot be seen, but I have wronged you!"

"There are no grievances or grievances, aren't we pretty good now? You kid just know it yourself, if you say something, it will make the world even more unpeaceful, and it will breed many people's delusions and ambitions! ”

"But now that I know it, I can't pretend I don't know! At least you'll have to give me a convincing reason! ”

Chen Hongyi waved his hand, "You first light all the everlasting lamps here, there is a secret room inside, I'll go there and tell you!" ”

Li Xiaofei did as Chen Hongyi instructed, and opened the secret room with a token.

There are all tables and chairs in the secret room, just like a discussion room, and there is a box on the table, the box is very exquisite, and it is carved from Hetian jade when you get closer.

Li Xiaofei looked at Chen Hongyi: "Could it be that the last secret is in this box?" ”

"It's just an empty box, and there's really no secret to it. It's just a few decades ago! Chen Hongyi motioned for Li Xiaofei to open the box

Li Xiaofei opened the jade box, and it was really empty.

"Master, you promised the Chen family to fight for the world and the throne, but you broke your promise! Why is that? ”

"Because I've been bought! Is this justification okay? ”

"Who? Who can buy Master? Is there anything more important than the throne? ”

"Yes! The men, women, and children of Nanhai County bought me! The food and clothing of the people in this world are more important than the throne! If I had exhausted the material, financial, and human resources of the South China Sea, I would have been able to occupy half of the country and become the emperor! But from then on, there was just one more ordinary emperor in the world, and the people of Nanhai County would never recover! ”

"Master, I'm still not convinced! You are doing your best to help the current emperor, don't you have a little meaning to make up for your regrets back then? Li Xiaofei directly made his words clear

"You're right, I regretted it, but I'm old, and a generation can only do a generation's thing! By the way, do you know the origin of the Sword Tower! ”

"Master is really honest, Jianlou is just an organization to collect intelligence, but it seems that except for Liu Mingge, the rest of the people do not participate in the disputes in the world."

"You're wrong! The founder of the Sword Tower is a Taoist monk, and the ancestor of Taoism is Lao Tzu Li Dan, who is in charge of the history of the world's archives. Taoism is in the world as a witness, but when it comes to Liu Mingge, Liu Mingge believes that witnesses are actually participants. Because of this

A witness has the power to change the world, and even if he does not move, he will have an impact on the general trend of the world. ”

"Taoism? Witnesses? Participator? Master, why don't I understand something? ”

"Your qualifications are indeed a bit dull, so it's really too hasty for Jianlou to give you the token! Let me tell you this, the Sword Tower is an organization that exists as a record of all the experiences in the world, they think that they are just witnessing the rise and fall of the dynasty and the world, but in the eyes of the world, they have mastered the things that affect the fate of the dynasty and the fate of individuals! ”

"So there are a lot of fortune tellers in those Taoist temples?"

"Ahem, yes, people think they can see the future and change their fate! The same is true of the rulers of the dynasty. In my opinion, in fact, the same is true, what they have in their possession may not be known to the imperial court! ”

"Like your background! I'm afraid that the emperor doesn't know about it today! ”

"Maybe they had doubted that some people said back then that this was just a play of Zhao's orphans for the world to see!"

"I'm in a mess in my mind right now, it's too complicated in this world, I'll just listen to Master's words for the time being, just know for myself!"

"I've got to find something to buy you! By the way, I'll take you to see Yiyangzhuang! ”

Chen Hongyi came up from the cellar with Li Xiaofei, who was buzzing in his head, and when he saw Li Xiaofei's lost soul, Hua Xiaoan thought that their master and apprentice had seen a ghost in the cellar.

"It's sealed! Immediately moved bricks with mud and sealed the cellar! Li Xiaofei ordered

The master and apprentice guarded a few masons and sealed the mouth of the cellar before leaving for Yiyangzhuang.

The so-called righteous village is inhabited by some lonely widows and widows.

Some old people whose sons were all killed in the war were weaving bamboo baskets and bamboo baskets, and when they saw Chen Hongyi coming, they smiled and shouted, "Old Chen, take a few sips!" Today we have big fish here! ”

"Okay, okay, I'm going to have dinner with you today! Give me a hundred family feasts! Chen Hongyi was not polite

Further inside, there is a large group of boys riding bamboo horses, and the girls are talking and laughing around chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits.

Chen Hongyi whispered to Li Xiaofei: "Their families are all dead in battle, sick and dead!" Don't ask any stupid questions later! ”

When a teenage boy saw Chen Hongyi coming, he immediately threw away the bamboo branch riding under his crotch, patted the dust on his hand, and ran towards Chen Hongyi

"Grandpa! Grandfather! As you said, you're going to give us real armor and horses! You're eating empty-handed again this time, why are you always deceiving people? ”

"Eh, how can this big official not deceive! Don't lie to people, how to be a general and a prince! Remember, boys! Don't trust these officials! Chen Hongyi told them clearly

Li Xiaofei felt that this was not the same person as Chen Hongyi he had seen, and just wanted to speak, but Chen Hongyi's servant Huang Ah Gong pulled Li Xiaofei's sleeve and signaled him not to speak.

After Chen Hongyi took out a bag of candy and a string of money from his arms and gave it to the leading child, the children went to play around the candy and money.

"Boys, you have to learn how to make money, how to fish and build a house, and get a family and a wife in the future, a good man is not a soldier! Remember! ”

When Li Xiaofei heard these words coming out of Chen Hongyi's mouth, his heart was very blocked.

Chen Hongyi took Li Xiaofei and continued to walk inside, until he reached the cemetery in the back mountain.

Looking at the dense tombstones, Li Xiaofei felt a chill, Chen Hongyi knelt down in front of the cemetery, "Most of them here are well-dressed graves, the war is urgent, there is no time to transport the remains back, and many people are buried in a foreign land!" Also at first

Write down who and who is buried in which city, and then you won't remember it anymore! I can't find what I wrote down! There are thieves and everything these days! ”

Li Xiaofei then knelt down and looked at these tombstones carefully, not to mention thousands of tombstones

Chen Hongyi respectfully kowtowed nine times here before getting up and wiping his eyes.

On the way back, Li Xiaofei couldn't help but ask, "Master, why did you say that to those children?" ”

"I don't want them to continue down our old path! I just hope they have a safe life for the rest of their lives! Once the success is done, the bones are withered, and the dead are all pawns, and they are just a string of numbers in the court, but for their families, it is the whole world! Without a father, children will be beaten, bullied, and even starved to death! Wives will be bullied without their husbands, and parents will have nothing if they have children! ”

"Master, I admit that I was bought by you! I'm convinced! ”

Li Xiaofei remembered himself more than ten years ago, how could he not be as lonely as these children, if Chen Hongyi hadn't saved him, maybe even the corpse would have been eaten by wild dogs after death.

At the 100 family banquet in the evening, the old people persuaded Chen Hongyi to drink one by one, and Chen Hongyi did not refuse to come, and took off his shirt and ate and drank bare-chested like them.

As is customary, the children will disperse after receiving the chicken thighs and glutinous rice dumplings.

But the child who took the lead in riding a bamboo horse before picked up a jar of wine and walked in front of Chen Hongyi: "Grandpa, I salute you with a jar of wine!" I'm going to be a soldier! I'm going to go to war with you! ”

Chen Hongyi and Li Xiaofei were shocked, Chen Hongyi immediately took the child's wine and laughed, "Hey, doesn't grandpa often tell you that good men are not soldiers!" Look at Grandpa's scars! It's ugly, so I don't even have a daughter-in-law until now! ”

Everyone laughed, but the kid didn't give up, "No! Grandpa, you're a liar! You are a hero! My dad and my uncle are heroes too! I just want to be like them! ”

At this moment, everyone stopped laughing and looked at the child and Chen Hongyi.

Chen Hongyi stood up and touched the child's head, "Zhang Jiyun!" is worthy of Zhang Meng's son! Zhang Sheng's nephew! Good! The old man drank your toast today! The old man also promised you, but you have to start a family first, and when you have a daughter-in-law and son, you will go to be a soldier under Lord Li! ”

Zhang Jiyun was still unmoved after hearing this: "Grandpa, you haven't married a daughter-in-law, why should I marry a daughter-in-law!" I'm still going to be a soldier first! ”

"Grandpa can't marry a daughter-in-law because he's ugly! You're different! You're more handsome than I am! Listen to Grandpa! In this way, grandpa will teach you swordsmanship from tomorrow! That's all right! ”

Having said this, Zhang Jiyun agreed, and everyone persuaded him, "Boy, be content!" Lao Chen personally taught you, such an opportunity is not available to ordinary people! ”

Chen Hongyi pointed at Li Xiaofei, "Don't say it, this kid, the old man has taught him swordsmanship for more than ten years, he just can't learn it and won't learn it!" Haha, good, drink! Drink! ”

Shen De returned to Yuzhang with more than 40,000 people to meet Cui Ju, who told him that now all the people in Chaisangkou were soldiers, and the road was either trapped or entrenched, and it was extremely inconvenient for the army to advance.

Everyone discussed together, and some people suggested that it was better to find a way to buy the defenders or key people in the city, but Cui Ju felt that this was too unrealistic, "The people in the city are eager to cramp and suck the skin and eat the flesh, how can we be bought?" ”

"In this world, there is nothing that will not be bought, it just depends on whether you have what he wants!" Cui Ju said this meaningfully and looked at Shen De

Shen De shook his head: "No, some people can't be bought, because what they want no one can give them, or the price for them is too great!" ”
