The black waves of the Tear River splashed, and the sound was terrifying.

On the altar that had just been built on the shore, flags sounded.

Under the stage, the prince, accompanied by several wizards and Guiguzi and other disciples, stood solemnly facing the river. Behind him are rows of armored men, and on both sides, countless people.

The king of Chu asked the prince to come to the Tear Luo River to pay tribute to the gods, because it always happened here that the river gods devoured the girls of the people's families.

In order to show the king's benevolence, the king of Chu specially asked the prince to sacrifice the river on his behalf. In fact, the king of Chu had to take a detour through the northern expedition to Wei several times. Passing through this river, the boat either capsized or returned defeated. There is nothing he can do, because the river changes as it says, sometimes it is calm, sometimes it is black. And the local officials said that the river god was angry, and every year the people had to choose a maiden to sacrifice to the god.

This time, the prince came to sacrifice, and it was even more solemn to show the sincerity of the Wang family. The local officials forced the people of the five families to send five maidens, tied to straw mats, and waited to pay tribute to the river god.

Along the way, Guigu followed the prince's team, thinking about it in his heart, he wanted to see what was going on.

The wizard took the stage, lit incense, and separated the two sides. The prince burned incense and bowed, then prayed to the river god.

When everything is done, it is time to put in the god girl.

The sorcerer began to chant, and immediately burst into tears. The five girls have been tied up for a few days, crying silently, and their parents are even more mournful.

The strong man lifted the girl and slowly walked towards the river. At this time, the black waves are more turbid, and the sound is more terrifying.

The prince knelt down and prayed, not daring to raise his head.

Guigu shouted. "Stop! Wait for me to come to the sacrifice! So saying, he walked up to the altar.

The prince looked at him sideways and said angrily: "Guiguzi! Stop off the river gods! ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince." Guiguzi helped the prince up. "That's not a god, how can there be a reason for immortals to harm the people!"

"The master is known to be a god, and he has talked many times to reach this condition, don't spoil the king's sincerity!" The prince knows that the ghost valley can excel, but he doesn't dare to fight against the national teacher!

"Guigu, don't you see that this river god is angry, and you still want to harm the king!" Several wizards shouted.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince rest assured, the Guigu Master will learn the method of 'scripture talismans', and it will not be too late to wait!" After saying that, he sat cross-legged in Taichung, closed his eyes and adjusted his mind.

In the haze, Mr. Iko floated in.

"The disciple traveled in Chu, and when he met this crying thing, he didn't know the truth of the river, so he asked Mr. to pull it out."

"Guiguzi, remember that you don't forget the will of heaven, let me tell you. This is the battlefield of the dead soldiers and souls gathered by the dragon, and they become demons, and there is love in the world, and when they are gathered in one place, they become demons. ”

"Sir, can you help your disciple to eradicate this demon!"

"There are too many unjust souls, I am afraid that they will not be able to get rid of them, and they will hurt you!"

"The disciple is not afraid, when this scourge is eliminated, the disciple will return to Yunmeng Mountain and practice the Dao in order to rid the world of demons and demons!"

"Alright! If you throw your sword into the air, you will return with blood, and you will do your best to help you get rid of the demons! ”

Guigu drew his sword and threw it into the sky.

A golden light pierced into the river.

The crown prince and the others were amazed.

But when the turbidity waves emptied, they sank little by little until the wind calmed down.

The long sword lay on the shore, the blade bloody.

"Guigu, I have tried my best for the teacher, but I still missed one, you have to go back to the mountain as soon as possible, lest it harm people again." After Iko finished speaking, she drifted away.

Guigu came to his senses, and sure enough, he saw that the wind and waves were calm. The soldier brought the sword, the blade covered in blood.

Guigu got up and shouted to the people: "The river god is going to take the national teacher away!" No more sending girls! ”

The people shouted excitedly, ran to the river, and freed the maiden.

People jumped and cheered.

Guigu looked at the prince. "Listen to the words of the river god!"

The prince waved his hand.

The soldiers grabbed the national teacher, tied them up, and carried them to the river.

The people shouted. "Vote! Vote! ”

The soldiers threw them into the depths with all their might.

In the palace of the King of Chu, hundreds of officials stood on both sides and talked about whether to send troops to attack the Qi State.

Guigu was at the bottom of the civil official row, listening to these people.

He was summoned by the crown prince, and went to the palace with the prince today to discuss whether to send troops or not. Some said that they should attack the Qi State, some said that they could not fight, and some said that the Lu State should be attacked, and the Chu State would give the chariot supplies.

An early dynasty could not be unified, and the king of Chu could only say that it would be discussed today.

On the way back, Guiguzi asked the prince what he thought.

"No idea, I was about to ask you! As the crown prince, I have been a prince for twenty-six years, and I have been careless all the time. Don't look at other princes and nobles who are superficially respectful and secretly bad! "The prince is full of complaints." So I have to look at my father's eyes, and if he says yes, I'll say yes. Mr. Guigu, your name has come back from sacrificing to the river god, and everyone knows it, and I also know that Mr. is a genius, and I don't know what to teach when it comes to sending troops? ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, a soldier, and a major event of the country. Inside, suppress the unsubdued, and outside, punish the violators of the way of heaven, this is the king's teacher. Today, when attacking Qi and building a battle, the minister only said that Qi sent troops to attack Wei, and he could take advantage of the void to enter. It is also said that Qi had helped Lu to fight Chu, and this was the day of revenge. His Royal Highness the Prince, the rope head is a small profit, and the villain's vindictive child's play is the way of heaven! ”

"According to Mr. Guigu's wishes, it still doesn't come out!"

Guigu nodded.

Back at home, Guigu told Gongsun Ying, Zhu'er, and the princess about the dispatch of troops in the royal court, and everyone also denounced the unknown teacher, and the king of Chu would not agree.

But Gongsun Ying insisted that the king of Chu must have to go to the army, he said: "Sir doesn't know, since General Wu Qi changed the law, the Chu State has canceled the hereditary marquis system and changed it to a system of rewarding officials and knights, and it is not allowed to pass on to the generations, so these nobles hate General Wu Qi." Although this was beneficial to the royal court and the poor people, these noble relatives had family resources and were able to learn literature and martial arts since they were young. In order to become an official and a knight, you have to make meritorious contributions, and if there is no war, how can you have a chance! Sir, Mr. Li Kui and I studied the Fa change, and also collected the reasons for the pros and cons of the Fa change, and this kind of thing is also trapped in the disciples! ”

Guigu nodded. "What you say is very true, this is called the mouth of the people!"

Therefore, today's royal court, the discussion is bound to be fierce to decide whether to send troops or not.

The deacon stepped out and shook off the dust. "The king has gone to the palace!"

The king of Chu walked out and slowly sat on the king's chair amid the sound of the Great Zhou ritual music.

As soon as the ritual music stopped, the ministers knelt down and worshipped, and the mountain called the king for a thousand years.

The king of Chu waved his hand. The ministers stood on both sides again, looking at the king of Chu with a side face, waiting for the king's opening words.

"Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday's court discussion on whether or not to send troops to attack Qi has not been decided, and today I hope that the ministers will put the country's security first, and take the name of this king Rendewei as this plan."

After the king of Chu finished speaking, his eyes moved, looking at the ministers left and right.

Doctor Yu Ziyue stepped forward and bowed his hand to the king of Chu. "The king, the minister has his own music!"

"Doctor, please speak!"

"The minister thinks that it is time to send troops to attack Qi. The king of Qi violently committed 1 government, and the people were not able to make a living. But he actually pretended to be the Son of Heaven, first attacked Yan, then attacked Lu, and this time sent troops to attack Wei, plundering land and seizing the city. Taking advantage of people's danger is already shameful; Unprovoked killing is even more against the sky. My king is benevolent, changes the law to be strong, and the second generation is peaceful, but in fact, he has become a model for all candidates. The king should judge the dispute, and the king should judge it, and the king has the world in his heart. ”

After speaking, he retreated to his right and looked at the King of Chu with his eyes.

The king of Chu had words, but he still looked at the ministers.

A general in armor came out of the ranks. "Great King, the minister thinks that he should destroy the Qi country, turn it into a new land of my Chu country, and march into the Central Plains on both sides, so that China can be unified!"

The general retreated. King Chu raised his eyebrows and looked at this general, who was the son of King Zhong, a noble relative.

A few more people came out of the class, and they agreed that the Qi country should be destroyed and destroyed, and said many reasons for the victory.

The king of Chu turned to the crown prince. "What do you think?"

The prince had to go out of work. He saw that many people supported Dr. Qing's proposal to send troops, and he thought about Guiguzi's proposal again. He believed in Guiguzi, but the people who wanted to send troops seemed to be on top. I was in a dilemma, and my father asked again, so I had to talk.

"Father, my son thinks it makes sense to send troops or not! The ministers have already talked a lot about the reason for sending troops. The reason for not sending troops, soldiers, and the country's major affairs. Inside, suppress the unsubdued, and outside, punish the violators of the way of heaven, this is the king's teacher. Today, when attacking Qi and building a battle, the minister only said that Qi sent troops to attack Wei, and he could take advantage of the void to enter. It is also said that Qi had helped Lu to fight Chu, and this was the day of revenge. Father, the rope head is a small profit, and the villain is fighting and child's play, how can it be the way of heaven! The father is wise and wise, and he should make his own decisions, and the pros and cons of it are not what the ministers and the ministers can guess. ”

After speaking, the prince retreated. King Chu frowned at first, but when he got to the back, he showed a happy feeling.

Guigu secretly scolded the prince in his heart, others said that it was okay to send troops to fight, but in order to please the ministers and the king, you ignored the responsibility of the prince and said nothing, it seems that there will be no virtuous king in the next generation of the Chu State.

Guigu wants to go to the class, but the prince has already said what he said word for word, in addition, his position is too low, and his words are slight, let's see the decision of the king of Chu!

"Are the ministers still playing?" King Chu asked.

Except for the crown prince and Guigu, a group of ministers have all advanced forward.

The prince didn't know what to do, and he was in a hurry, and he also took a step.

Only Guigu didn't move, and he didn't know what everyone was going to do.

"Send troops to fight and do the right thing for heaven!" Everyone spoke in unison.

The prince was not greeted by Doctor Qing in advance, and he didn't know the content of his words, but he just moved his mouth.

Guigu understood, and thought, "I'm still wondering why those people who can't go out of the army one day!" Today they all changed their tunes. ”

King Chu laughed. "All the ministers are in unison, destroy Qi and return to Chu, the way of heaven makes it! Now he is ordered to be the general, the prince is the supervising army, and the auspicious day is to fight Qi! ”

"The king is wise! The king is wise! ”

Hymns echoed in the royal court.

The ministers congratulated each other excitedly after the king of Chu left.

The prince hurriedly walked out of the royal court and looked at the ghost valley that followed behind him. "Mr. Guigu almost missed my future!"

Guigu was startled, and immediately understood what his words meant. "I'm afraid that the crown prince has mistaken the future of the Chu State!"

The prince stopped his feet and was about to get angry at Guigu, who had already strode away with his chest up.
