The two of them looked inside and outside the village, and went up a hill again, but did not find a single officer or soldier, Li Zicheng was on the hill, and suddenly sighed: "Jiexuan, do you think we can make a comeback?" ”

Liu Zongmin seemed to know that he must have this question, and replied without the slightest hesitation: "King Chuang, you are destined to be a person who sits on the country, what is the current situation?" I heard that Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor, when he was not the emperor, also fled with a group of people, and was almost caught several times, but later became the master of the world, created the Eastern Han Dynasty for 200 years, and broke the king, as long as we don't die, we will definitely make a comeback. [No pop-ups. 】”

Li Zichang sighed: "That's what I said, but since the uprising, we have been fighting from the east and west, but we have never had a big plan. Wherever the officers and troops are weak, they will always fight. It's not okay to live one day at a time. As the saying goes, if people have no long-term concerns, they must have near-term worries, and this is the case with us. ”

Liu Zongmin nodded: "King Chuang, in terms of power, the official army is much larger than ours, even when our righteous army is the strongest, it is only a few hundred thousand, and the officers and soldiers of the people together are afraid that there are millions." The previous gods Yikui, Wang Jiayin, Zijin Liang, and Gao Chuang Wang, which were not well-known characters, but they didn't survive, and now the rest, I think God likes them. So we're not going to die. ”

Li Zicheng said: "But if it goes on like this, it's not a way, let's pull up a team, and we will be suppressed by the official army, to be honest, I'm a little tired......"

Speaking of this, Li Zichang sighed.

Liu Zongmin was about to persuade a few more words, when he suddenly heard a gong not far behind him, although the sound was not too loud, but it also interrupted the thoughts of the two.

They had been in the army for a long time, so they could naturally hear that this was not the sound of the army's gong, so they looked back and saw a person walking out of a dense forest behind them.

This man was short in stature, like a child, but the beard on his chin was already quite long, and his face was weathered, and he looked about thirty or forty years old, and he was very ugly. This person holds a long pole in one hand, a flag is hung on the pole, and the four characters of cloth clothes are written on it, and he holds a small gong in his right hand.

Liu Zongmin subconsciously clenched the single knife under his waist, staring at this person with cold eyes, this person who looked like a child walked in front of the two horses, looked at Liu Zongmin, and then looked at Li Zicheng, after looking at it for a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up, he arched his hand, and said: "The two generals are invited." ”

Li Zicheng also strengthened his vigilance, looked around, and found that there was no one else, so he asked, "Is Mr. a Xiangshi?" Dare to ask the honorable name, why did you get here? ”

The man smiled: "It is indeed a method of knowing how to meet people in the next few hands, walking in rural states and counties, meeting people for a living, my surname is Song, and I offer advice under both names." ”

Liu Zongmin sighed: "Song Xiance...... Song Xiance?! He was shocked: "Are you Song Child?" Song Xiance stroked his beard and smiled: "It's exactly below." Liu Zongmin immediately jumped off the horse and bowed his hand to Song Xiance: "Mr. Jiuwen's name." I don't want to see you here today, haha, Sansheng is lucky. ”

The peasant army rushed to the state and hit the government, wandering on the rivers and lakes, naturally knowing this god, and his story was also circulated in the army, coupled with people's exaggeration, the more he said, the more he said, the more godly, some people said that he was the reincarnation of Yuan Tiangang in the Tang Dynasty, and some people said that he was the resurrection of Liu Bowen when he founded the country, in short, this person is very famous in the rivers and lakes. But I don't know why I got here.

Li Zicheng did not get off the horse, this is the tacit understanding between him and Liu Zongmin, in case they all get off the horse, this person who calls himself Song Xiance, if he suddenly uses a poisonous hand, he will kill the horse, and then ambush the soldiers everywhere, and the two of them can't escape if they want to. Therefore, he sat in the saddle and smiled coldly: "It turned out to be Mr. Song, who has admired his name for a long time." ”

Song Xiance looked at Li Zicheng, his eyes flashed: "This general, dare to ask, is it King Li Chuang?" ”

Liu Zongmin shook his head: "We are his subordinate generals, King Li Chuang has been separated from us, and we are also looking for him." Song Xiance laughed and said to Liu Zongmin: "Your Excellency has a wide mouth and a tiger-eyed leopard head, which is Wang Zuozhi's appearance." It's really not King Chuang, but the one right away, nose and cheeks, phoenix eyes and square mouth, is the appearance of the dragon and phoenix, if it is not the king, I will not eat this bowl of rice from now on. ”

Li Zicheng looked at Song Xiance for a while, and then smiled: "Yes, Mr. really has good eyesight." It's just that what kind of dragon and phoenix look, after all, it is false, I, Li Zicheng, have been revolting for several years, but I have ended up in such a mess, isn't it a few days? ”

When Song Xiance heard that he admitted that he was the king, he clapped his hands and laughed happily, threw the gong and the fortune-telling signboard, and knelt down on his knees: "See His Majesty the Emperor for advice......"

At this moment, not only Li Zicheng was stunned, but even Liu Zongmin was dumbfounded, and only after a long time did he say, "What did you say?" Your Majesty? ”

Song Xiance stood up and showed joy on his face: "Exactly, King Li Chuang wants to sit in the country after all, this is the will of heaven, how dare I say it." ”

Li Zicheng remained silent: "Sir's words, it's a bit exaggerated, right now I'm running around, it's too late to take care of myself, what else are you talking about?" To be an emperor? Song Xiance said: "The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, and empty their bodies. ”

Li Zicheng still shook his head, Liu Zongmin was worried that he couldn't encourage King Chuang, and happened to meet Song Xiance, and when he said this, he was willing to let it go, so he asked: "Mr. said that it was the will of heaven, is there any sign?" ”

Song Xiance said: "In recent years, several provinces in the Central Plains have nursery rhymes, rumors, nine-fold gates, closed at noon, and eighteen children are the main artifacts. The eighteen children are the eighteen sons, and they are a Li character. I once knew a person before, and I thought it should be on him, but then I saw that the will of heaven did not belong to this person, because there was still a nine-fold gate in front of him, and it was closed at noon with six words. Noon, Ma also, there is a horse in the door, it is a word, so this is the Quartet to visit, all over the world Li name people, today to see the king of Chuang, only to know that the king is the person chosen by God. ”

Liu Zongmin was overjoyed: "King Chuang, you heard it, the country must be you in the end, you must be able to overthrow the Ming Court and let the people live a good life." ”

Li Zicheng still looked grim: "Mr. is wrong, I am not the person chosen by God." ”

Song Xiance said: "Don't doubt King Chuang, let me tell you a divination?" Li Zicheng sneered: "I never look at my face." I don't believe in the words of the scholars. Song Xiance rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Since King Chuang doesn't believe in divination and doesn't matter, I will ask you to calculate a hexagram for yourself." ”

Liu Zongmin doubted: "Do you count the seal for yourself?" What is the algorithm? ”

Song Xiance took out six copper plates from his arms, these six copper plates were specially made, they were used for divination, and handed them to Liu Zongmin and said: "These six copper plates, one side is written auspicious, and the other side is written fierce, you can find a flat land, sprinkle it together, and then see it anyway." If there are three auspicious and three evil in the six copper plates, it means that everything is as usual, nothing has changed, if the auspicious is more vicious and less, it is clear that the auspicious is greater than the fierce, the master must have an upward trend, if the fierce is more than auspicious, then the master may have a disaster, if the six are all fierce, then there must be a catastrophe, if the six are auspicious, it is naturally expensive. ”

Liu Zongmin looked at the six copper plates in his hand, and thought to himself, it's best to break into the king's calculations and get lucky, but it's too difficult. Therefore, he said: "King Chuang, why don't we also count one?" ”

Li Zicheng saw that Song Xiance had no malicious intentions, so he also eased his face, jumped off the horse, took the copper plate, looked at the left and left, there were mountains and rocks, and asked: "Sir, where is the best place to go for divination?" Song Xiance said: "There is an abandoned mountain temple in the east of this village, how about going to the god case there to divinate a hexagram?" ”

Li Zicheng had seen this small temple when he entered the village, so he nodded, and the two pulled their horses and came to the temple with Song Xiance.

The small temple was in a dilapidated state, the statues were missing heads and arms, and the shrine was long since empty, covered with dust and bird droppings, and very filthy.

Song Xiance stood in front of the case, picked up a rag from the ground, wiped the case, and barely cleaned it, before he smiled at Li Zicheng: "King Chuang, you divination." ”

Li Zicheng looked at the statue of the mountain god, and suddenly felt sad, he felt that the situation of this mountain god was very similar to his own, so he arched his hand upwards and said: "Mountain god, you are originally an immortal, but you have also fallen into the mortal world, and you have caught up with such a world, no one has come to renew the incense, and finally ended up dusty, lacking a head and arms, and you are not as good as a mortal." Today, I, Li Zicheng, are also here, and I have compassion for the same disease, and I can't respect it......"

He picked up three dry grass sticks from the ground, put them on the table, and lit them with a fire fold to make incense: "Insert grass under it as incense, it can also be regarded as adding some incense to you, increase some vitality, may the mountain god bless me Li Zicheng, if he can really return to the sea and do something great, he will definitely come back, rebuild the temple for you, and then shape the golden body, if you break your word, die under the sword, the hands of the thief." ”

After finishing speaking, he took the six copper plates, put them in his hand, shook them a few times, and sprinkled them on the table.

With a bang, six copper plates fell on the god case, and the six eyes of the three people looked intently, only to see that the six copper plates were brushed upwards on one side, and six auspicious characters appeared.

Liu Zongmin was overjoyed, and he shouted: "Daji, Daji, King Chuang, what am I talking about?" You're going to be in for it. ”

Song Xiance was also very pleased, and smiled: "It seems that the prophecy is true, and the will of heaven is clear......"

Li Zicheng smiled indifferently: "It's just that your luck is good, if you try again, it will definitely not be like this." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the six copper plates, closed them in his hand, and sprinkled them again.

This time it was the same as last time, it was still six auspicious words, Li Zicheng frowned, and silently prayed to the sky: "If the will of heaven really should be on me, if I throw it again for the third time, it should be like this." ”

He sprinkled the copper plate for the third time, and a miracle happened, still six auspicious characters.
