Chapter 163: Four Virtues and Four Joys

"That's not right!"

Chen Yuqing was stunned by Mo Li's cold voice, and asked, "Brother Mo, what's wrong?"

Mo Li pointed to the place where the battle between the Hunan and Qinger camps was in the distance, and said: "Everyone, please see, although the second battalion of Qingxiang is constantly fighting, the so-called one blow, then decline, and three exhaustion. The voice of this war has not been weak, and I am afraid that there is fraud in this. ”

"Is Mr. Mo too worried?" General Cao was skeptical.

"Wait until I let go of my sense and investigate. Mo Li looked into the distance, raised his sword finger, read it carefully in his mouth, let go of his divine sense, and came to the place of battle, as expected, although the soldiers of these two camps turned against each other, shouting and shouting and killing, there were no casualties. The commanders of the two camps sat in front of their horses, watching the soldiers come and go.

"What person?" The commander in the Xiangzhou camp felt Mo Li's divine sense, and a cold light instantly appeared in his eyes, and with a flick of his hand, a fire blade attacked towards where Mo Li's divine consciousness was, Mo Li said carelessly, he didn't expect that there were monks with good cultivation among these people, so he immediately tightened his divine sense to dodge the blow of the fire blade and hid in one place.

"Hmm, is it a mistake?" The commander of Xiangzhou saw that he did not succeed in the blow of his hand, so he was suspicious. Could it be that there are monks in Le'an City who are higher in cultivation than him? Impossible, before he came, he had already mastered all the situation of the monks in Le'an City, even if there were people with cultivation equivalent to him, it was impossible to dodge his blow so easily, and he could disappear without leaving any trace. There are only two possibilities, either he is too cautious and induces a mistake, or someone from Zhongzhou.

Thinking of this, he clamped the horse's belly between his legs and drove the horse to the commander of Qingzhou not far away.

"General, what's going on?" asked the commander of Qingzhou, Chuanyin.

"I'm afraid you have ears and eyes, you can make a quick decision, please enter the urn. ”

The commander of Qingzhou nodded, then drew the sword beside him, pointed at the commander of Xiangzhou and shouted: "Xiangzhou child, eat your grandfather and my sword!" After speaking, he flew towards the commander of Xiangzhou.

The commander of Xiangzhou met the commander of Qingzhou with a spear in his hand at this time, and scolded in his mouth: "Qingzhou rats, Hugh is rampant!"

The two engaged in a fierce battle in the air, opening and closing. Wherever the spear passed, the blood light surged, full of devouring power, and the long sword flipped over, and the sword qi overflowed, constantly defusing the spear's attack. Mo Li, who was hiding in one place, watched the situation of the battle in the air, and said in his heart: Qingzhou and Xiangzhou are really big states, and a small commander has such cultivation. The commander of Xiangzhou has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a bloody aura, and a ruthless and vicious move, so he must be a person in the Demon Sect. Looking at the commander of Qingzhou again, although his cultivation is good, his skills are not high, and if this swordsmanship is not sharpened like a sword in ten years, it is difficult to have this attainment. However, it stands to reason that the cultivation of the commander of Qingzhou should be better than that of the commander of Xiangzhou, why is he falling behind at this moment?

Just when Mo Li was secretly analyzing, the commander of Qingzhou couldn't dodge and was stabbed by the commander of Xiangzhou looking back at the moon, he slapped the commander of Xiangzhou with a palm, and took this opportunity to quickly retreat towards the rear. When he landed, he shouted, "Retreat!"

Seeing the commander-in-chief's order, the Qingzhou army retreated one after another and quickly left the battlefield. The Xiangzhou army was about to catch up, but the commander of Xiangzhou stopped it: "Poor Kou Mo chase, where is the assassination order?"

"The last general!"

"Spread the news to me that the Qingzhou army has been repelled by us, and I ask the governor of the Zhongzhou Celestial Dynasty to come and take over Le'an City. ”

"Yes. ”

Mo Li took his divine sense back, opened his eyes, and took a long breath.

"Brother Mo, how is the battle ahead?"

"The Qing army has been repelled by the Hunan army, and at this moment it is welcoming the Zhongzhou army to take over Le'an City. ”

"What! How could this Hunan army give up Le'an City to Zhongzhou?" Chen Yuqing was surprised, he had been paying attention to the movements every other week, Qingzhou and Xiangzhou were both coveting the position of the Zhongzhou Dynasty because of historical reasons, why did Xiangzhou still want to give up Le'an City to Zhongzhou at this moment? Could it be that the Zhongzhou Dynasty promised the benefit of the Xiang King?

Mo left his mouth and said: "The defeat of the green army is a bit strange. ”

"Is it deliberate?" Cao Jun said at this moment.

Mo Li nodded and said, "According to my observation, this Qingzhou and Xiangzhou should have colluded in advance. ”

"Brother Mo, speak quickly. ”

"The Qingzhou commander was significantly higher than the Xiangzhou commander, but he fell behind when he was in the battle, and second, when the Qingzhou army was defeated and retreated, the Qingzhou army did not panic, and the chariots and horses marched in an orderly manner; who could not forget the formation and queue when the army was defeated? Throw away the armor and save the life first. ”

"The thief is so cunning. Cao Jun is well versed in the way of war, Mo Li analyzed it like this, how could he not understand the reason, and said with a snort: "Qingzhou and Xiangzhou are embarrassed, not only to take away my Le'an City, but also to pit the Zhongzhou Dynasty, which is simply a villain." ”

"To march and fight, you must not only use force, but also strategize. Chen Yuqing said at this time: "Qingzhou and Xiangzhou can abandon their previous suspicions, join forces at this moment, and gradually Qingwang and Xiangwang have the temperament of the two people, and it is not a pleasure to compete with him in this world." ”

Cao Jun saw that Chen Yuqing still did not forget to talk about heroes and cherishing heroes at this critical juncture, and said with some dissatisfaction: "General, when is it, still talk about fast things!"

Mo Li laughed and said, "General Cao, a human life is short. Therefore it should not be despised or wasted. Self-cultivation, family, governance, and peace in the world are the virtues of a person's life. Chasing the four virtues and having the four joys, do you know which four joys they are?"

Cao Jun couldn't stand the literati going around, so he said: "You scholars, the intestines in your stomach are always turning and turning. ”

Mo Li smiled slightly and said: "These four pleasures are monarchs, confidants, relatives and opponents. It is a pleasure to be an official in the court, to govern the country in a clear state, and to seek well-being for the people; it is a pleasure to meet a confidant, to trust life and death, to practice ideals together, and to enjoy mountains and rivers; to have a harmonious family, to serve the elderly, and to educate the younger generations; to take the world as a chess game, and the well-being of the common people as the prize, to meet opponents in chess, and to show what they have learned in the ultimate life, this is another joy. ”

Everyone listened to Mo Li's eloquent words, thinking about what he said, and couldn't help nodding. Chen Yuqing even felt that she had met a confidant, and saluted respectfully and said, "Brother Mo knows me." ”

Cao Jun said unconvinced: "According to Lao Cao, I only know that eating meat and drinking wine with my brothers are the happiest, and there are ......."

Chen Yuqing saw that Cao Jun was embarrassed to say, so she asked, "What else?"

Cao Jun's old face flushed, "There is also a delicate little lady who warms the quilt is also a pleasure." ”

"Haha!"

General Cao's astonishing words and embarrassed gesture caused everyone present to laugh.

"Father. While everyone was laughing, Chen Liu and Zuo Ling appeared in front of everyone.

Chen Yuqing looked at Chen Liu carefully, and found that his child seemed to be another person, in just a few days, Chen Liu's body had a momentum, with a sword pinned to his waist, and he walked head-on, but there was a heroic posture.

Chen Yuqing was overjoyed, stepped forward and patted Chen Liu, and said, "Okay, it's not my Chen family's son-in-law, come and see Brother Mo." ”

Chen Liu nodded, saluted Mo Li, and said, "I've seen the master." ”

Zuo Ling then saluted and said, "I've seen Shizun." ”

Mo Li nodded, then looked at Chen Yuqing and asked, "General Chen, Chen Liu and Zuo Ling may get a position under your account?"

"Naturally, no problem. ”

Cao Jun saw that the battle had not yet been fought, and Mo Li was still in the mood to seek an official position for his disciple. If you want an official position, Chen Liu, after all, is General Chen's son, he grew up watching it, but how can this stinky kid beside him be? Besides, he can't ask for it so directly in front of everyone, so where can he put his face as a general. So he said unhappily: "Mr. Mo, is your little daughter-in-law also going to give an official position?"

After speaking, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Youruo who appeared on the side at some point, and when Youruo heard him say this, his brows furrowed, and he felt a little angry in his heart. She can't tolerate anyone bullying and hurting Mo Li, Mo Li is not only a benefactor and a senior brother for her, but also the person she likes the most in her heart. She was about to have a seizure, but Mo Li gently held her hand and comforted her. He turned to Cao Jun again and said, "General Cao, don't be angry, since I asked General Chen for a half-official position, I have a reason." ”

Chen Liu and Zuo Ling's faces were not good-looking at the moment, after all, they were their masters, and General Cao was so insulting, it was too ruthless.

After Mo Li finished speaking, he paused, looked back at Chen Liu and Zuo Ling, and said, "You have been practicing on the mountain for a few days, and today is the best time to test the results of your cultivation. When the thieves come, you will be the vanguard and go out of the city to fight. ”

"Disciple obeys!" Chen Liu and Zuo Ling replied in unison.

"What! You let Chen Gongzi and this kid be the vanguard?" Cao Jun was surprised by Mo Li's arrangement, after all, fighting is not a child's play, even if he cultivates on the mountain for a few days, his opponents are all battle-hardened people, not to mention those monks who don't know how many years of cultivation.

Chen Liu saw that Cao Jun didn't believe it, so he said, "Uncle Cao, don't worry. After some teaching by the master, my junior brother and I have been doing penance on the mountain for a few days, and it is natural that we can fight against those soldiers. ”

"Chen Gongzi, fighting is not child's play, you can't hold it up!"

"Uncle Cao, when did you see me?" Chen Liu asked rhetorically.

Chen Yuqing was also a little worried in her heart, so she asked, "Liu'er, are you really okay?"

"Father is relieved. ”

Regardless of success or failure in this battle, if there is life or death, the people of Le'an City will remember it. ”

Mo Li pressed the soldiers who came in the smoke and dust outside the city, took Youruo's hand and said to Cao Jun: "General Cao, there is a sentence that I forgot to remind you. If you are my junior sister, if someone insults her, it is like insulting my master, although the master has flown to the fairy world, but I am still here. After speaking, Mo Li flicked his sleeve, and a purple light shot out from his sleeve, and the corner of the city tower not far away instantly turned into nothingness.

When everyone saw this, they felt a chill down their spines. He secretly scolded Cao Jun in his heart, everyone has ascended to the immortal realm and become immortals, can the apprentices he accepts be poor? The blow between his sleeves just now is to warn us that whoever dares to be disrespectful to his people will only be dead. Besides, although the background of the family is unknown, but the cultivation is to the sky, there is no obligation to fight for the small people in the mountains and fields of Le'an City. Now it is a great honor to be willing to fight for Le'an City. You, Cao Jun, even made disrespectful remarks again and again, and you are simply looking for death. The key is that I can't wait if you want to die, but you can't pull us to do the back together.

Everyone was worried in their hearts, especially those monks who were persuaded by Chen Liu, and they knew that Mo Li's cultivation was unfathomable, and they and their masters and ancestors wanted to pursue the Great Dao Immortality all their lives, and the masters had already broken through it, and from this level, it was thousands of miles away, how could they dare to have any disrespect, it was really ignorant!

Cao Jun was so frightened that he stayed aside and didn't speak, Chen Yuqing scolded and counted Cao Jun, and then said to Mo Li with a smile: "Mr. Mo, Cao Jun doesn't choose what to say, please atone for your sins." ”

Mo Li's originally plain face changed, and he smiled like a spring breeze and said: "General Chen has seen the outside, General Cao's worry is not unreasonable, but I am abrupt." ”

Then he smiled at Zuo Ling and Chen Liu and said: "Chen Liu, Zuo Ling, I won't fight in this battle, if you wait for the defeat, you will not be qualified to practice our sect's exercises again, and you and I will have nothing to do with it in the future." ”

"Please rest assured, Chen Liu (Zuo Ling) will be invincible!"
