Chapter 147: Tonghua's Thoughts
The sea wall was built, and the small slopes along the coastline were connected, and although the sea wall was not very tall, it effectively contained the invasion of the sea breeze. The flock of seabirds in the territory is dwindling dramatically, and the great firebird hovers in the sky all day long, eating everything, poisonous snakes, rats, and of course, seabirds.
Thanks to the efforts of Tonghua and the little black bird, those who were hiding in the mud holes began to pop out one by one, and now, they finally figured out the difference between the lord and the king, who rode his horse all day to patrol the territory, and the king was different, the king rushed down from the mountain, had his head cut off, and stuck in the tip of the halberd. There were fewer and fewer kings on Qishan, more and more slaves in the territory, and hordes of robbers became slaves, and the people in the territory gradually believed that the young, scarred lord, who wore armor all day long, had the ability to bring stability and peace here.
The rebuilding of Huifeng Town was carried out quickly, the arrow tower was erected, and most of the collapsed city wall was repaired, although it was low, even a naughty child could easily climb into it, but the purpose of the city wall was not to defend against bandits and enemies, but more often, it symbolized stability and order.
The streets were cleared, the armoured soldiers roamed in them, the power brought fear and reassurance, and the low houses were gradually filled with people, and although they were still damp, they were a thousand times better than mud caves.
The humble bazaar was also built, and few people frequented it, and the lord ordered his soldiers to trade with each other, and the lords gathered around the bazaar watched the jokes for half a month, and finally someone had the courage to take a pile of shells and a smelly salted fish in exchange for grain seeds, and that day, the lord was very excited, although the salted fish was so stinky that even the rats would not come close, and the pile of shells seemed useless, but the lord still exchanged the precious seeds for him, and praised the industrious and kind lord. When the first person to enter Qishan brought his prey in exchange for a bow and arrow, the lord became even more excited, and he personally exchanged the bow and arrow for the brave and strong lord, and climbed up to the high platform of the market, telling everyone that now they were free to enter Qishan to hunt, and the lord would be responsible for their safety.
At this time, there is no king on Qishan Mountain, all the kings have been cut off by the lord, the last king's head is not easy to cut, Lord Si Kou led two hundred people into the mountain, in the dense jungle for half a month to find the king in a cave, it is a dark and damp cave, the rat is the king's neighbor, the snake is the king's guard, when Lord Si Kou found the king, he was already dying, was bitten by his own guards, and Lord Si Kou dug up the treasure in the cave, There is also a roll of bamboo slips.
Yes, war can bring death and wealth, for a big country, every war will determine the life and death of tens of millions of people, and even will be the watershed between the prosperity and decline of the country, so, in the face of war, all big countries are walking on thin ice, but for Ji Lie, who only has thirty miles of barren territory, war can always make people desperate, and he has been forced into a desperate situation, what else is there to fear? Of course, the premise is that he keeps winning.
There were a total of eighteen kings in Qishan, so Ji Lie also cut off eighteen heads and obtained the wealth accumulated by the kings over the years. As for the bamboo slip, its origin is very confusing, because the payment is actually clear, and the content on it is very simple, that is, to occupy Ji Lie's territory at all costs, drive this arrogant lord out, or drive him into the sea. When that day comes, the king will be transformed into a noble nobleman, the nobleman of the Chen Kingdom.
Holding the bamboo slip, the official swore an oath and told the lord that Kuai Wujian was a traitor and that he had betrayed the lord's trust in him. However, the lord smiled as he pointed to the seal on the inscription. The seal is a symbol of identity and status, only the dignitaries can have, the seal on the bamboo slip is soaked by the rain and is a little blurred, but the words on it can still be recognized, Chen Guoshang Liangzai. Kamiyozo is an official position second only to a doctor.
At this time, Chen Guo and Zhaoguo had already had two frictions at the border, each time someone died, it was a disputed place, when Song Boyo successfully used that land to make Chen Guo and Zhaoguo almost fight, and now, the wheel of fate is turning.
Everything went smoothly.
It went very well for the little wicked man, he had more and more slaves, more and more people, and he was so busy every day that he didn't even have the opportunity to be alone with me. Alas, when will I be able to complete my mission, that day seems to be a long time.
What time is it?
It's June.
The hibiscus flowers in the white city should bloom, it is a black and white flower, the stamen is white, the petals are black, and the bouquet of flowers worn on Tonghua's left wrist is exactly the same, but this bouquet of flowers will not wither, it is woven with brocade cloth, and it will never wither, but the hibiscus flowers in the white city will wither, if I can't kill him as soon as possible, then I won't be able to catch up with this year's flowering period, alas.
Tonghua lay on the window weakly, and the rare sun lazily shone on the flowers on her hand bowl. This little yard was very clean, and there was a peach tree planted in the yard, and the peach blossoms had been gone, and there were traces of red on the ground, and this peach tree had been transplanted from the mountain by the little wicked man, but when the flowers bloomed, he had not come.
I am his concubine, and the peach tree is also planted by him, isn't the peach blossom and me beautiful enough?
Tonghua rested his chin on his arm and thought faintly.
A seabird flies overhead.
The little blackbird stood on the peach tree, holding a homemade bow and arrow, and with a 'whoosh', shot the seabird down.
"Sister Tonghua, Sister Tonghua."
The little black bird carried the seabird to Tonghua's window, looked up at the little face, and smiled brightly: "Sister Tonghua, look, I shot it down, I shot it down!" The little girl was very excited and repeatedly emphasized that she had shot it down.
"I see it, the little black bird is very powerful." Tonghua touched the little black bird's hair and praised weakly.
The little black bird pouted: "The little stone is powerful, yesterday he shot three, the big firebird is even more powerful, it has to eat all day, eat and eat......" blinked and thought, how many big firebirds should eat? But she couldn't count them, and her big eyes kept blinking, and finally she thought of a perfect answer: "I want to eat a lot of them, and I can't count them." ”
The little girl is innocent and cute for no reason.
Tong Huale pinched her little face and said with a smile: "The little black bird can shoot one today, three tomorrow, and more in the future." "But I thought in my heart, the teacher also said to me, there is black and white good and evil at the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, and if you eliminate small evils today, you will be able to eliminate big evils tomorrow, and one day, there will be no more evil in the world. But when will I get rid of this little wicked man?
"Sister Tonghua, I won't play with you anymore, I'm going to the market, the lord said, a seabird can be exchanged for half a cup of grain."
The little black bird was no longer called King Ji Lie, she twisted the shaft of the arrow, carried the sea on her shoulder, and strode out of the courtyard.
"Wait, I'll go with you."
Tonghua flew out of the window, as light as a butterfly, the little black bird turned around, just to see that scene, the little girl's eyes widened, the black eyeballs rolled around, the old man for a long time, shouted: "Wow, Sister Tonghua can fly!" ”
Tonghua was startled, quickly covered her mouth, and looked left and right, fortunately there was no one, patted her chest, and said with palpitations: "Sister doesn't have wings, how can she fly?" The little black bird was wrong, it must have been dazzled when he shot the bird just now. ”
"Not really."
The little black bird wanted to tell the difference, but Tonghua couldn't help but pull her and walked outside. There were two soldiers standing outside the courtyard, and when they saw Tonghua coming out, they asked her if she wanted to ride a car or a horse. Tonghua thought for a while, and ordered the soldiers to lead the horse, first put the little black bird on the horse's back, and then turned over lightly on the horse.
"Sister Tonghua, don't you really know how to fly?" The little black bird is a smart and clever girl, she is very good at judging the situation, and when Tonghua hugged her, she pressed Tonghua's ear and asked in a low voice.
"No, it won't." Tonghua replied seriously.
There is no lord's mansion in Huifeng Town, and Ji Lie does not live in this courtyard, and the little villain lives in the military camp, which is in the east of the city, facing Qishan and next to the market. It's been a long time since she's seen a villain, and Tonghua decides to try her luck at the bazaar.
More than two months have passed, the complexion of Huifeng Town is getting better day by day, there are pedestrians coming and going on the streets, they see the beautiful woman on horseback, they all bow their heads respectfully, all the lords know that this celestial woman is the woman of the lord, and is also their savior, if she did not bend down and lower her toes, and the little black bird with the hole and crawl the nest, they would not live so quickly under the sun. They loved her even more than the lord.
"Men are very good, and they are dressed in fine clothes. The hands are like soft wattles, the skin is like clotted fat, the collar is like a grub, the teeth are like a rhinoceros, the head of the mantis is like a moth eyebrows, the smile is clever, and the eyes are beautiful. ”
Someone sang a jerky poem, which was very reverent, praising the beauty and kindness of Tonghua. Someone even had the courage to hand over two live fish.
"Haha."
The little blackbird took the fish in his hand and smiled happily.
Tong Huaqiao's face was light red and dizzy. She was the chief disciple in the White City, rewarding the good and punishing the evil, and at the age of twelve, she killed the king of the ink wolf, as sharp and dangerous as a sword in the piano, however, now listening to those songs that made people blush, she only felt that in the clouds, a heart fluttered and fluttered, and the turmoil was very great. She wants to tell these people that I am not that beautiful, let alone kind, and that the reason why I help you is to gain the credibility of the little evildoers.
Still, the little villain doesn't trust me.
