Bo Yi bowed slightly, pondered for a moment and said: "Ah Long is very intelligent, and the old man is deeply comforted. The old man also knows a thing or two about the "Shu cannon": using iron as a tool, such as a cylinder, using medicine in the real world, plugging its mouth with stones, bypassing a line, and sending it with fire. The city fortress is attacked and defended, and the field water battle is extremely powerful. ”

Ah Long smiled humbly: "Uncle Shi! Although Ah Long is only a shallow learner, he is also meditative and hard thinking in order to fight flexibly on the water. Finally, a kind of "bamboo pole Shu thunder" was invented, and the "Shu thunder" was applied to the long pole and fixed to the bow of the dinghy. At the time of the water battle, the dinghy rushed at the enemy ship and exploded on impact. Although this method has achieved initial results, it needs to be transformed. ”

Bo Yi gave a thumbs up: "Ah Long ghost is a magical talent, rare in a hundred years!" ”

Ah Long became even more humble when he heard this: "Today's Eastern Wu has come to invade my border again, and it is even more vicious, and he will eat a trench and grow wise." I pondered day and night, and came up with another strategy: Is it possible to use the "Shu cannon" firing mechanism, or install the launcher on the "Shu mine" to make a kind of "launching Shu mine". In this way, water warfare can be blown up quickly and far; It can not only be fried accurately, but also ruthlessly, and flexibly fried. ”

Bo Yi pondered for a long time, and suddenly showed joy: "This method is wonderful!" The old man thought that the firing principle of the "Shu cannon" was that the gunpowder contained in the barrel of the cannon burned violently under the ignition of the fuse, and the gas temperature in the chamber was extremely high, and it expanded sharply, shooting the shell out. According to this concept, the design of the "Shu Thunder" launch device can also rely on high-pressure containers and use compressed air to boost the thunder body forward at a high speed, which can inflict heavy damage on enemy ships. ”

Ah Long hurriedly said: "Shi Boqi has a wonderful idea! How can it be used in real combat? ”

Bo Yi said with a smile: "The old man was invited by the prince of Nanyu to travel to Yuecheng, the capital of Yu. Although the young master Yu Xing is young, he is very intelligent, and he once asked the old man for firearms. The old man was entrusted by him to study hard for several years, and he had a lot of experience, which came in handy today. ”

Ah Long was overjoyed: "Shi Bo is all over the world, it is really a blessing for Xishu!" ”

Bo Yi smiled: "Ah Long is polite! The old man likes to travel in all directions, not to mention abandoning Wu Benshu and escaping again, the best of both worlds, why not? ”

The two talked and laughed, rested for a while, and went straight to the Ordnance Supervision Crossbow Workshop together.

In the early morning of the next day, Ah Long was full of concern, stepped on the white dragon horse, and rushed to the top of Shennong.

Shennongding is located in the north of the junction of Wu and Shu, towering and grandiose, thousands of rocks and ravines, densely covered with hanging ponds and waterfalls, gathering the most beautiful scenery all over the world. Shennong Pavilion, the holy land of Shennong, is ingenious and is a rare architectural treasure.

Shennong Pavilion is wonderfully conceived, the design is exquisite, the mountain is in place, makes full use of the cliff, builds on the cliff of dozens of zhang, it is like hanging in the air, and does its best to "hang, strange, ingenious".

Overlooking Shennong Pavilion in the distance, like a delicate and transparent relief, inlaid in the cliffs of ten thousand people; Looking at Shennong Pavilion closely, there is a tendency for eagles to strike the sky and volley into the air. It is true that "Shennong hangs over the cliff, and the pavilion is not in the clouds".

Ah Long held the Shennong sword in both hands, looked at Zisu, thought of the hero of Qishan and died young, he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes, and choked up and said: "The last words of the senior brother in charge: Take this sword as a letter and appoint Brother Su to take over as the head of the next generation." ”

As soon as Zi Su saw Shennong's sword, he had already guessed the truth, and in an instant, tears rained down. Kneeling down to take the sword, holding it in his hand, crying silently.

After the handover, Ah Long said again: "My brother is also ordered by the former head to take back to my family." ”

Zi Su nodded with tears in his eyes: "The general is coming, and he will complete the mission and return the junior brother to Zhao." ”

Ah Long was worried: "There is still a reluctant request below, there is a lack of capable generals around my family, so I implore the head of the family to recommend one or two." ”

Zi Su said with tears in his eyes: "Senior brother Zi Ai, Zi Ling, junior sister Ziwei and Zi Wan, known as the "Four Sages of Bauhinia", have strong martial arts, chivalrous liver and courage, benevolence, righteousness and courtesy, and are strategic, but also ambitious, and can be assisted. ”

Ah Long finally saw Zhuo Yun, and his heart was happy and sad; Thinking of Qishan in distress and Yin Li's suffering, he was even more painful and regretful.

Zhuo Yun is like a thousand-year-old monk, sitting on a futon, with a pair of eyes, no waves in the ancient well, no joy and no sorrow, and practicing penance and meditation. When he saw Ah Long, he lowered his head even more, not daring to raise his eyes: "Ah Long, I won't go back to Shu." Now, you are the king of Shu, and thousands of people are handed over to you, and I can rest assured. ”

Ah Long was slightly stunned: "Your Majesty, I never agreed." Shu Jun can only be the king. ”

Zhuo Yun's eyes were scattered: "Ah Long, I am the king of Shu, and it is wrong from beginning to end." Nowadays, we should not make mistakes on top of mistakes! ”

Ah Long bowed and said: "Your Majesty, people must have a beginning and an end to their lives, and they must fulfill their duties and responsibilities." The meaning of human existence is to fulfill one's duties. This kind of life is complete. Just like a farmer planted the field, a weaver girl weaved cloth on the machine, a literati wrote a book of the world, and a military general protected the land of the country. As the monarch of Shu, it is the duty of the monarch to "relieve internal and external troubles and protect the lives of the people" and cannot be shirked. ”

Zhuo Yun said sadly: "Ah Long! For more than ten years, I have achieved nothing! Shame on our ancestors and ancestors! Shame on the generals! Shame on Li Min! This Shu Jun, don't do it! What's more, if you are the king of Shu, you will be ten times more competent than me! ”

Ah Long's eyes were like electricity: "Your Majesty! Why do you give up on yourselves? Aside from the king's talent and wisdom, not to mention. Who in the world can persevere and implement the new policy like the king? As long as the monarch perseveres, he will be able to revive Xishu and benefit all the people. ”

Zhuo Yun was extremely depressed: "No, Ah Long! The new policy you advocated, I admire it and do my best to help it. But today, that old family is really stinky, hard, treacherous and slippery! They've worn away the last of my patience! I've been completely overwhelmed, and I can't do anything to resist it anymore! ”

Ah Long hurriedly said: "Don't you know? This staff is hard for the king, and the old family is ten times more difficult than the king. Now is the final stage of tackling tough problems, and the comparison is persistence. Only by persevering to the end can we win the long-term. If you don't insist, you can only go back a hundred years. ”

Zhuo Yun was in pain: "I also understand these truths. I've tried, and I've endured. It's just that the harder you work, the more you persevere, the more you can't see the improvement, the more you can't see the effect. ”

Ah Long said angrily: "Then try again!" Not only Ah Long, but also all living beings in Xishu can see it! ”

Zhuo Yun burst into tears: "Ah Long doesn't have to be embarrassed for me! I'm not a hero! Not even a good monarch! I am afraid that if I try my best, I will not be able to benefit the people, but I will drag down all sentient beings! ”

When Ah Long heard this, he suddenly remembered Qishan, Yin Sheng, the generals, and Qinghe who were dragged down by him, and couldn't help but be anxious and angry: "In this world, there is no natural strongman, and there is no born winner!" The real heroes are all tempered and have to be tried and beaten! In order to survive in death, in order to be strong in the weak, and to win in defeat! ”

Zhuoyun oil and salt did not enter: "The matter is now, the big mistake has been made, I will go back to Xishu, and it will not help!" ”

Thinking that time is not waiting for me, delaying for a while, and I don't know how many soldiers will be sacrificed to death, Ah Long is furious: "Your Majesty, I have ancient teachings in Xishu, and those who are the monarchs of the country will not go to court for ten consecutive days without reason, and the patriarch of the royal family can force him to go to the ancestral tomb to think about it." Tomorrow morning, the deadline is the deadline. Ah Long thought that King Jia, as the patriarch of the royal family, was planning this day, and he was already looking forward to it! At that time, just because of the difference in your thoughts, how many fresh lives will be turned into white bones! ”

After Ah Long finished speaking, he flew up, and his shot was like lightning, not allowing Zhuo Yun to resist at all, snatching it in his hand and sandwiching it under his armpit.

Zhuo Yun wanted to struggle, but he was ashamed and panicked, not to mention that he couldn't fight at all, so he had to go.

The "Bauhinia Four Sages" were ordered to accompany and follow behind, curious and funny. In this way, a group of six people rushed down to the top of Shennong.

At dawn, we reached the east of the city and the bank of the Yangtze River.

Ah Long turned to look at the "Four Sages of Shennong": "Brothers, if you want to take the cableway or ferry, you need to wait until dawn. The monarch is in the early dynasty, and it is urgent. The foolish brother took the first step, and the princes waited for a while. ”

After speaking, holding Zhuo Yun, he rose into the air, flew and jumped up, like a big bird spreading his wings in the air, stepping on the cableway across both sides of the strait, walking like flying, and in the blink of an eye, disappeared in the dawn.

Zi Ai and others were dumbfounded: the ropeway is so high, and the top goes to the river for dozens of zhang; The length of the ropeway communicates hundreds of feet on both sides of the strait; The danger of the ropeway, across the sky and the river, thousands of waves! Don't say that you can't see your five fingers at dawn, that is, in the blue sky and white day, who has the guts?
