Chen Youliang died, and as the ghost of the frog disappeared without a trace, I don't know whether he was dragged by the frog to the underworld to complain, or it disappeared together, in short, Lin Qi did not see Chen Youliang's ghost.

As soon as Chen Youliang died, the fighting spirit of the Han army collapsed instantly, even if they could break through Zhu Yuanzhang's obstacle and go back safely, there was no place to receive a heavy reward, so after the Han army heard the news of Chen Youliang's death, they all ceased fighting and surrendered, and Yao Tianxiang in the east raised a white flag to Kang Maocai. Zhang Dingbian did not surrender. He took advantage of the darkness of night to escape. Not only did he flee by himself, but he also fled with Chen Youliang's youngest son Chen Li, Han courtiers, imperial concubines, and more than 10,000 of his subordinates.

Zhu Yuanzhang won a big victory, and in addition to being surprised, he hurriedly sent someone to Chen Youliang's dragon boat to find the long whip, but when his people boarded the dragon boat, Lin Qi had already given the long whip to Leng Qian, Leng Qian was very surprised, the long whip made of frog Jiaojiao tendons can instruct three hundred human head turtles and water monkeys, although the human head turtle and water monkeys are not lightly injured, but they should not be underestimated, such a monster is fierce and abnormal, except for the iron-billed pelican and the grass-headed god, there is no rival, I don't understand how to hand it over to myself?

Confused, Lin Qi took the iron whistle off his neck and handed it to Leng Qian, Leng Qian looked down at the thing in his hand, and asked in a deep voice, "You trust me so much?" ”

Lin Qi was curious: "I don't believe you, who else can I trust?" Brother Leng, since you and I have been together, we have shared weal and woe, and life and death have come together, what else can't be believed? Your ability to control beasts is innumerable in the world, and these strange things are the most appropriate in your hands, so is it possible to hand them over to others? ”

Leng Qian's gloomy face finally had a little smiling appearance, and said, "Let's go, let's be a housekeeper for you!" ”

Lin Qi turned his head to look at the lake, but when he saw the floating corpses continuously, the water was red, and the warship that had not yet burned clean was flashing with a desolate light, he couldn't help but say: "Brother Leng, such a fierce and vicious monster can't fall into the hands of others again, otherwise the disaster will happen again, I don't know how many people will die, I will find a way to surpass these unjust souls." ”

Leng Qian understood what Lin Qi was referring to, and said: "But rest assured, since Peng Zu's death, I have long lost the mind to conquer the world, I can only watch with cold eyes, now that Chen Youliang is dead, I can be regarded as having done my last effort to the sky, and then I will wander the world with you." ”

Lin Qi looked at Leng Qian and smiled slightly, without saying anything, it was really not a lot of effort, Xu Da boarded the dragon boat again, instructed his soldiers to look around for the long whip, and after looking for a long time, he still couldn't find it, knowing that Lin Qi took it, sighed, and went back to tell him, Lin Qi also returned to Zhu Yuanzhang's boat, and said to him: "Guogong, in this battle, there are many people who died in the battle. ”

The strongest opponent is dead, Zhu Yuanzhang was so excited that he couldn't shout three times, but he still maintained an indifferent appearance, Lin Qi naturally agreed with his mouth full of requests, and said: "Brother Lin is compassionate and compassionate, how can the old brother not be allowed?" Ordered Li Changlin to handle all matters of the water and land puja with you, and the monks and temples near Yingtian were all in charge of the Lin brothers. ”

A big victory, Zhu Yuanzhang has a lot to do, a while of hard work, there are countless civil and military generals come in with joy, how to arrange prisoners of war, how to calculate military funds, how to carry out the next move, busy, you come and go, everyone's face is beaming, follow Zhu Yuanzhang to work hard, isn't it just for this day, now that there is a landing, promotion and fortune are not a problem.

Zhu Yuanzhang was so busy, Lin Qi didn't want to bother more, thanked Zhu Yuanzhang for coming out, and before he could wait for where he lived, he saw She Ling bring two beggar elders to wait for him, and when he saw him, he caught up and said: "Xiao Linzi, I didn't help much in this big battle, so I followed you anyway, this is the matter, I am also leaving, I am a beggar to help the leader, and leave things in the gang alone, it is not like talking very much." ”

Lin Qi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Bell, we have been worried for so many days, we have suffered a lot, we have just won this battle, why are we leaving?" ”

She Ling smiled: "If you don't leave, what are you doing here?" Continue to help Lao Zhu fight the world, and finally make a big official? This generation of beggar gang leaders have not yet been an official, my beggar gang has ancestral training, not allowed to enter the court as an official, just for the poor brothers in the world to have a place to gather, not to be bullied by others is, Xiaolinzi, according to me, it is the right thing to go to the clothes, don't you know that the birds are good and the bow is hidden? ”

Lin Qi smiled: "Then you still need you to teach me?" When I was done with this water and land puja, I left. ”

She Ling said with a smile: "This is the best, then I will take the first step, if there is something in the future, just let the brothers in the gang pass a message, it is the end of the world, I She Lingjing will inevitably arrive, so I will leave, Xiaolinzi, take care!" After speaking, he bowed his hand to Lin Qi, turned around with the beggar gang elders, and did not look back.

Lin Qi looked at the figure of She Ling's departure, and his heart was not a good feeling, although She Lingjing didn't say it, Lin Qi also knew that there were really a lot of deaths in these big battles, and no matter how much it worked, She Lingdang never left, until he Lin Qi got revenge, such a brother is really ......

Lin Qi watched it, but heard a song faintly transmitting: "Farmer, eat rice bran, bricklayer, live in a grass house, weaver, no clothes, salt seller, drink light soup......" The song was ethereal and disappeared into the night.

Lin Qi's water and land puja was arranged in the Jinguang Temple in the Purple Mountain, Zhu Yuanzhang had a lot of things to do, and he couldn't get out, so he sent a Wenchen to donate a lot of property on his behalf, and the water and land puja lasted for a long time, more than forty-nine, as little as seven days, and at least three days. There can be as many as 1,000 monks to participate, and generally 3 or 200 people are needed, and at least 70 or 80 people are needed. The Dharma should be complete, all kinds of common Buddhist Dharma are not included, and more than 200 pieces should be hung, and as little as 120 "water and land paintings" should be hung. These paintings require a spacious hall to fit them, so the only place to do this is the Great Temple.

In this puja, Lin Qi was set up for Di Ting, coming back from Yin Si, in the words that Di Ting brought him, he praised him for his merits in surpassing sentient beings, Lin Qi also had pity on the souls who died in battle, and he naturally did as much as he could, not to mention that Wuxiang had followed him for so long, in order to purify sentient beings, Lin Qi couldn't help him Pudu sentient beings, but Pudu could still do it after the unjust souls who died in battle.
