570: Last stop
The atmosphere in the valley was tense, and the yin and yang qi fought alternately with each other, one after another, and then a thin and withered old monk walked out. The old monk was wearing a very shabby monk's robe, I don't know how many years, it was tattered, he was very old, he seemed to be old and weak, he walked staggeringly, as if he was dry and weak, and he had no strength. The old monk's eyes were cloudy, he folded his hands towards the ghost king, bowed down and said: "General, your defeat today is really the will of heaven, and the old man is willing to exceed, and the donors put down the butcher's knife." ”
Suddenly, several ghost army officers and zombie soldiers on both sides of the old monk opened their teeth and howled, staring at blood-red eyes and rushing over, the old monk did not move, but there was an invisible force that spread to the surroundings, and all the ghost troops were forced to retreat, but the ghost army ghosts were not eliminated by the force.
Xiao Fan was dumbfounded, this old monk in rags who seemed to be a beggar in a barren mountain and a wild temple had such powerful mana, he looked completely different from the famous monks and masters in the famous temples in the famous mountains and rivers today, but just like a living Buddha, there was a majestic and peaceful power in his body. Although there are only these old monks at the bottom of the valley, the situation has completely changed, and they can suppress this heavy ghost army.
The old monk continued: "General, you are dead, why should you cling to the delusions of this earthly world? Birth, old age, sickness and death, resentment will be bitter, love and parting from suffering, asking for suffering, the five aggregates are full of suffering, people live in the world there are eight sufferings, and people become ghosts after death, the eight directions are also bitter, grievances and hatreds in the world, don't you still see through? The sea of suffering is endless, turn back to the shore, put down the butcher's knife, and become a Buddha on the ground. If the heart does not move, everything does not move, the heart does not change, everything does not change. If you want nothing, you deserve fate. You should let go. ”
The ghost king leaned against the mountain rock and whispered, "You must kill them all?" ”
A fierce veteran gave off a cold light in his eyes and said, "Bastard! People and ghosts have different paths, good and evil, what is there to say?! If you die and don't reincarnate as a human being, and you still stay in the yang world to do many evils, we will get rid of you! ”
The ghost king said, "You are all monks, as the saying goes, monks have compassion, although we are ghosts, but ghosts are changed by people, and people and ghosts are of the same origin, so you can't let us live?" You've killed hard enough! If your ancestor is still alive, will he teach you how to do it? ”
The fierce old man said: "Even if the ancestor is alive, to deal with you, there is only one word - kill!" ”
At this time, Xuanyuan Tianji said: "General, the matter has come to this, you have already gotten away, why should you be obsessed, if you go deeper into the devil's path, you will not be able to turn back." ”
The ghost king sighed and said: "Although we are ghosts, but this is also the will of heaven, since we exist, we have to work hard for survival, this is the same as all living things in the yang world steal life, since God let us exist, why destroy us?" ”
When Xiao Fan heard their conversation, he suddenly felt that the ghost king was a little pitiful, and what he said made some sense. If yin and yang are separated, and people and ghosts have different paths, why does God still let the ghosts of these dead soldiers stay in the yang world to wander? In fact, these ghosts are the same as living people, they are all struggling for their own existence.
The fierce old Taoist looked stern and said, "Good and evil are incompatible, hum!" You weren't supposed to exist! ”
The ghost king said, "Who is right?" Who is evil? Back then, I took my brothers to defend the country and conquer the border passes, and the Huns I killed were running around with their heads and rats, and they didn't dare to step into the territory of my Han Dynasty! How energetic and proud I am with my brothers?! My generation joined the army, not for fame, but only with enthusiasm, all to serve the country, in order not to let the people of Li suffer from the Huns, and never surrendered! But the people in the court don't think so, those cunning and insidious people in order to increase the official and become a knight, the marquis and the prime minister, only care about greed, intrigue with each other, completely ignore the war, ignore the lives of the Li militia generals, and ignore the stability of the world. ”
"Those people are selfish and greedy, and they use the power in their hands to make me obey their commands, give up the overall situation for my own personal sake, sacrifice the generals, and fight for their power struggle. Of course I don't! But it aroused their jealousy, and they threatened
For me, if I disobey their will, I and my men will be pushed into the encirclement of the enemy. If I don't obey, I will resist the order, and if I obey, the whole army will go to a dead end. ”
“…… The black clouds crushed the city and wanted to destroy it, and the armor light opened to the sun. The characters are full of autumn colors, stuffed with rouge and night purple. Half a roll of red flags is in the water, and the frost is heavy and the cold is silent. Rolling the king's golden platform is on the will, and the jade dragon is carried to die for the king! The ghost king's eyes were sad and deep, and he whispered: "There are no people under my subordinates who are greedy for life and afraid of death!" In order to repay the king's kindness, we swear to fight to the death! If we die, we will die for our country! Don't be a tool for those treacherous people to climb up! ”
"I led the troops to meet the enemy, fell into the enemy's trap, we were surrounded by the enemy, fighting alone, and several times the main force of the enemy army with me desperately rushed to the death for several battles, held on for more than a month, even if we were at a disadvantage, none of my brothers surrendered and fled in the face of the Huns!" The ghost king swept the ghost army with his gaze, and the generals and soldiers all stood with their heads held high, their expressions arrogant, like soldiers ready to go out at any time, and the atmosphere was bleak. "And the general saw that we were in a dead place, so he did not move, and took advantage of us to delay the enemy, and when the fierce battle with the Xiongnu was fierce, he sent troops to attack and succeed, and won the battle."
The ghost king's eyes were sad: "My subordinate brothers are all big husbands, they wanted to sacrifice their lives for the country, but they were never defeated by the enemy, but they didn't expect to die in the hands of their own people who fought for fame and fortune, suspicion and jealousy, I still remember the blood on the battlefield, the strong wind, we were cut off from food and grass, and there was no way to retreat, the brothers fought bravely, fought bloodily, cut off the knife and axe and shot all the arrows, and finally fought hand-to-hand with the Huns, smashed their heads with their fists, and tore their throats with their teeth!" Everyone fights to the end, swearing to the death! Blood stained the desert red, corpses piled up, flags planted diagonally on the ground......"
"Our last wish is to sacrifice our lives for the country, to abide by loyalty, the general has won the war exploits, but still hates us, he saw that we were besieged by the enemy and defeated, did not move a soldier to rescue, and slandered our troops to the enemy and treason, and the Huns internal friction and death, Long Yan was furious, and all my wives and children, old and young, were beheaded to death, so that we also became traitors after death, and we were infamous through the ages. The Huns made the rest of us surrender, and I was so angry that I drew my sword and killed myself. The ghost king flashed a cold light: "...... The soldiers were half dead in front of the army, and the beauties were still singing and dancing...... Bullnose old man, you say, soldiers died on the battlefield, but high-ranking officials fought for fame and fortune, who is right? Who is evil? ”
The eyes of the elite Taoist flashed, and he was also saddened, and admitted: "You died to defend your family and the country, you are great heroes!" ”
Xiao Fan listened to the ghost king's long sigh, and suddenly felt that these ghost armies were very pitiful, sad, and helpless, and the valley was filled with a sad atmosphere. He nervously touched Xuanyuan Tianji and asked, "This ghost king...... Who exactly? ”
“…… Zeguo entered the war map, and the people were happy to be happy. Relying on the king's words to seal the marquis, it will be a success, and the bones will wither......" Xuanyuan Tianji looked sad and said: "Who is it?" History is not completely true, it is only written for the strong, those who have achieved fame seem to be perfect, take advantage of all the advantages, and the fame is dazzling, and how many of them are beautified, not all of them are meritorious. How to distinguish between people's real faces? How many innocent people with lofty ideals have been sacrificed by this fame and fortune? ”
Dongfang Wuji's face was heavy, and he knew that these ghost soldiers turned out to be patriotic heroes, because they were hated by their superiors and died so tragically, so the ghosts did not disperse and turned into ghost troops, but the military spirits were still there. At this moment, there was not such a strong passion for slaying demons and demons in his heart, and in the night wind, there was sadness wafting in the valley.
"Alas, good people don't live long, but disasters last for a thousand years! This has been the case since ancient times. Yuwen Wuxing shook his head and said: "God is like this, he doesn't have long eyes!" The good people were killed, but those sanctimonious wicked people were well-dressed and beautiful, and they deceived the attention of many people. I said the old man, don't be angry, since ancient times, heroes have been so sad, and few people have ended well. He raised his head and pointed to the sky and said, "This thief, Lao Tzu hates it the most!" There is no reason to talk about it at all! ”
At this moment, the sky suddenly thundered and shone on the valley, and the deafening thunder seemed to be angry from heaven, causing the valley to shake, and a bolt of lightning struck down, and with a click, a tall ancient tree on the side was split into two parts. The East is endless
does not change color, pointing to the heavens: "If there is a kind, I will kill Lao Tzu!" Lao Tzu is not afraid of you! ”
The ghost king suddenly said, "Good scolding! ”
The fierce old Taoist said: "Ghost King, dust to dust, earth to earth, although you were a hero in your life and died unjustly, but after you die, you will turn into a ghost and not disperse, but you should not harm one party, and you should not stay in the yang world." Now that you don't surrender, I have to get rid of you! Could it be that you, a patriotic army, ended up in disgrace? ”
The ghost king said, "When we were alive, we had done our best, endured humiliation, and ruined our families. We have become powerful ghosts, naturally we have our own way of survival, we are ghosts, it is inevitable that we will harm people, and my subordinate soldiers have also killed a lot of evil ghosts. I have been defeated in life, and I cannot be defeated again when I die. ”
“…… The scenery is different in autumn, and the geese in Hengyang go without paying attention. The sound of the corners on all sides rises, and in the thousands of mountains, the long smoke and sunset are closed in a lonely city. A glass of turbid wine is thousands of miles away, and Yan Ran has no plan. Qiangguan is full of frost, people can't sleep, and the general's white-haired husband is in tears...... "Xuanyuan Tianji sighed: "General, you still take the generals to reincarnate." ”
The ghost king looked at his subordinates and said, "Although my brothers are ghosts, many of them have never done anything harmful. Niu Nose, the old man will beg you once today, if there are people in our army who are willing to be reincarnated, you will let them go! He leaned on the rock, looked at the ghost army, and said in a majestic tone: "You have followed me for many years, and I have experienced a hundred battles, born and died, today we are finally besieged here by these old ways, fate has ended, if you are willing, you can be reincarnated, reincarnate, and become a new person, you don't have to be scattered and turned into nothingness." ”
The Sensen ghost army did not move, the soldiers' expressions were resolute, and none of them wanted to be reincarnated. A general beside the Ghost King suddenly knelt down and said resolutely: "We will follow the general!" Till death is till death! All the ghost troops in the valley knelt down and shouted in unison: "I am willing to follow the general!" Till death is till death! No regrets in life and death! The ghost army was huge, the shouts echoed in the valley, the scene was desolate, Dongfang Wuji and the others couldn't help but be moved. Dongfang Wuji said: "Okay! ”
A little tear flashed in the ghost king's red eyes, and he said, "Good! Worthy of my soldiers! But these bull's nose spells are strong, you are by no means their opponents, today the general trend is gone, the defeat is decided, why do you bother to bury with me. When I was alive, I couldn't take you to enjoy glory and wealth, but I died unjustly, how can I cause your soul to fly away after death. He said, "Roster! ”
The general on the side took out a few rolls of gold silk, knelt down to offer the ghost king, the ghost king borrowed the gold silk, his right hand suddenly rose a black gas, the gold silk was also shrouded in black gas, the ghost king said to the master uncle: "Today I am defeated here, grievances and merits, everything is borne by me alone!" I have fixed all my subordinates and summoned them to the roster, and when I die, you must spare them and let them reincarnate! ”
Suddenly the cry shook the sky, and the ghost army in the valley seemed to be frozen in place, they struggled hard, but they couldn't move. Master Bo nodded and said, "Why should the general be like this, wait for me to ask Master Kulong to transcend for you, forget this life, reincarnate, and be a new person." ”
“…… After hearing about the Nai He Bridge and drinking Meng Po soup, people will forget the things of their past lives...... But I will not forget the calamity that has befallen our army! The ghost king's eyes flashed, and he said, "I won't be defeated again, no need to say more!" At this time, a general beside him begged: "General! Since the soldier has been reincarnated, please let the last general fight with the general for the last time! At the end of the day, he will experience the last bloody battle with the Huns by the general's side to defend against foreign enemies, how fast! At the end of the day, please fight! ”
The Ghost King looked at the general and said silently, "There is no final battle left. He turned his head and stared coldly at the master.
The Ghost King slowly stood up, and he picked up a large knife beside him. This big knife was shrouded in black gas, and the blade shone with red light, like blood, and like flames swimming. The ghost army wanted to fight with the ghost king, but they were restrained, motionless, and resentful. The ghost king stared at Dongfang Wuji and the others, and the master and other Taoist priests stood with swords, killing intent soaring, and the ghost king said, "Come on!" ”
