Volume 1 When I Was Young Chapter 44 Penance and Training

The burly one-eyed old man stood by the lake, he looked at the sparkling night and said nothing.

His army was stationed on the shores of Fuxian Lake in southern Xinjiang, and this was another 18 years.

Fifteen from the army, eighty years to return.

This sentence is about the old man, he joined the army at the age of fifteen, tied his head to the belt of his trousers, and fought as a horse soldier all his life.

The smoke on Fuxian Lake is vast, and the evening breeze blows the lake.

The old man took off his helmet, his pale hair danced wildly, he hugged the helmet and walked slowly along Fuxian Lake.

The old man loved soldiers like sons, and he cultivated half of the generals of the Han Kingdom in his life; watching those fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys in his army grow up and slowly grow into the pillars of the country, the old man will be very pleased every time he thinks of this.

But as long as he fights, he will die, and the old man will feel bad at the thought of those boys on whom he has high hopes to die in battle.

"When will this troubled world end?" the old man sighed and muttered to himself.

The old man was a monk, but he had never read a book, his exercises were passed down by a general himself, and the general who taught him cultivation was very good to him, and he also learned from that general in his arrangement.

At that time, the old man was still a young man, and he followed the general to destroy more than 30 countries, expelled the remnants of the Hundred Nations Alliance to the west of Yashan, and laid down tens of thousands of miles of territory for the Han State.

The general's surname was "Li", and his only daughter later married the general's son.

The old man has seen many things in his life......

In this world, despicable people do whatever they want, and pure and kind people are the most vulnerable to insults and injuries.

The general, the general's son, his Li family has been too soft-hearted for two generations, and he doesn't want his only grandson to repeat the mistakes of the past.

However, he has spent too little time with him over the years, and he has no chance to change his too simple and kind heart.

The old man was out of his mind, and his personal guard, Ah Xi, suddenly ran over and said to him with a heavy face: "Old general, just now the spies reported that another nine hundred civilians were slaughtered. ”

Over the years, with his suppression, those barbarians in southern Xinjiang have lost their barbarism in previous years, but the barbarian massacre of civilians in southern Xinjiang has been happening.

The cancer of the barbarians has grown in the Han Kingdom for many years, and the barbarian tea has poisoned many ordinary people in southern Xinjiang over the years.

The old man tapped the hilt of the knife, perhaps it was time to decide.

The old man looked at the lake and night, and said to Ah Xi: "Tomorrow, the three armies will be deployed, and all the barbarians you see in the southern Xinjiang do not need to report, you can decide for yourself." ”

Ah Xi asked in shock, "Is this going to be a killer?"

"I'll take a step back, and they'll be one step further, for more than ten years! These barbarians don't know what patience is. The old man said: "I am tired after more than ten years of repeated teaching. ”

Ah Xi clenched his fists and said, "I'll give the order." After saying that, he dodged and left.

The old man's own son-in-law's lyrics, he opened his mouth loudly and sang: "You don't see, go to the snow and the seaside, and the flat sand is reckless and yellow into the sky." You don't see, the border is lonely and the autumn desert is deserted, and the wild geese are in the sky in the north. You don't see, there are 102 states outside the Han Kingdom, and no one has collected many white bones. You don't see it, the two armies are facing each other, and the Han army is dead!"

In the southern Xinjiang of the Han Kingdom, the Zhennan Army, which had been silent for more than ten years, was opened.

Xu Tianbao, who was respected by the emperor of the Han State and called the "pillar stone of the country", finally completely relented and began to attack the barbarians.

——————

The northern desert also ushered in the spring of the second year.

Zhao Lingyu has been idle recently, and he also walked with Qi Yingyun and the others.

Looking at the yellow sand under the mainland, she sighed: "It's better to be on top; the wind can't blow, and the rain can't blow." ”

Qi Yingyun said: "I still like Jiangnan a little more, the climate there is pleasant, unlike the dry weather in the desert of northern Saibei. ”

Zhao Lingyu asked, "Senior brother, the previous Nine Heavens Sword Sect was in that place in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Qi Yingyun said: "On Poyang Lake. ”

Zhao Lingyu thought about it, she also felt that the nine continents of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect were better floating on the big lake, so that when she was fine, she could fish, dig lotus roots, and pick lotus flowers, and that kind of life was really beautiful. In this northern desert, the weather is dry, and my skin has become bad.

"The little brother has been away from home for so long, and no one has anyone to play with me. The little sister smacked her lips and said.

The corners of Qi Yingyun's mouth curled, and she said with a smile: "Then you can go to Song Haoran." ”

"If you do this again, I'll go and tell Senior Sister Nangong that you like her. Zhao Lingyu said-for-tat.

Qi Yingyun waved his hand and said, "Let's not hurt each other." ”

Lu He said: "Senior sister, your cultivation is so low, how can you protect yourself in the future." ”

"Am I not a master and a senior brother? ”

"Then we can't take care of you for the rest of your life. Besides, you're going to go out for penance after a while, and I'll see what you do then. Lu Ji said worriedly.

When the cultivation of the monks of the Han Kingdom reached the late stage of foundation building, they had to leave the sect for penance and training, and only when they broke through the Jindan period could they be qualified to return to the sect.

Zhao Lingyu said with tears in his eyes: "Senior brother, I don't want to do penance. ”

Qi Yingyun sneered and sneered, "You don't practice penance, do you! I'll go to the master now!"

Zhao Lingyu wanted to cry without tears and said, "Senior brother, we are reconciled now, is it too late?"

Qi Yingyun snorted coldly, left with his hands in his hands, and said secretly in his heart: "You little girl also has something to be afraid of!"

Lu Ji also followed Qi Yingyun to the Liuyun Pavilion where Xiao Yichen lived, and Zhao Lingyu stomped his feet and followed the footsteps of the two with a scolding.

Liuyun Pavilion.

Xiao Yichen said "mmmmmmmm ”

Xiao Yichen seemed to think of something, and said, "Ling Yu, you are in the late stage of foundation building?"

Zhao Lingyu said speechlessly: "Although I am not as good as the two senior brothers, I have also cultivated for more than ten years!" This is actually not what Zhao Lingyu really wants to say, what she wants to say is actually: "What am I building the foundation in the late stage?! I have already built the foundation in the late stage, okay! Can you Xiao Yichen sect disciple serve dim sum?"

Xiao Yichen said: "That's pretty good, get ready and prepare, go to penance and practice." ”

Zhao Lingyu said coquettishly: "Master is so fast, can you slow down? The sword ceremony will be held next year, shall I go out later?"

Xiao Yichen shook his head and said: "No, you have to go to penance and training in the later stage of foundation building, but there are clear regulations; if you don't go, let others know, you will gossip." ”

Zhao Lingyu stood stunned on the spot, "What are the clear regulations? Why have I never heard of it?"

Xiao Yichen found a book from his bookcase, turned to a certain page, and then pointed it to Zhao Lingyu to read, "All Nine Heavens Sword Sect cultivators, if they cultivate to the late stage of foundation building, they must follow the ancient law, go out to practice penance, and cultivate to break through the golden pill before they can return to the sect." ”

Zhao Lingyu snatched the book from Xiao Yichen's hand and asked, "What kind of book is this?

Xiao Yichen let out a "uh" and said, "I wrote it." ”

"So you have to obey it, or people will gossip. ”

Zhao Lingyu returned the book to Xiao Yichen, "Is there still this bad thing? Why haven't I heard the master mention it?"

Xiao Yichen said: "This was written after I became a sword-wielding elder, and it was originally only stipulated that the monks of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect should practice penance, but I didn't expect it to become the law of the entire Han Kingdom. ”

Lu He patted Zhao Lingyu on the back, "Pack up your baggage, I'll send you out with my master and senior brother." ”
