Volume 1, Ming Chronicle Seventy-nine, Qingdi City
One person and one cat sighed in unison, the sword light rushed into the water, and the fat big fish were picked up by the sword light, disemboweled, and the large pile of charcoal fire by the river was ignited, and the aroma of cumin pepper came from time to time.
There were pieces of fish bones scattered on the ground, and the pig licked his paws, washed his face, arched his back, stretched a big lazy waist and jumped on Li Shi's shoulder, and disappeared into the sky with the light.
Three days later, at noon, in front of Aoki Castle, the light fell on the smooth and wide cement pavement, and a cyan figure slowly walked towards the city.
Outside the city gate, there were many people gathered in front of the huge billboard, and a literate old man was explaining the content of the notice to the onlookers, and from time to time there was a burst of discussion.
"It's good to change the name to Qingdi City, so that the great achievements of the Qingdi and his old man can be passed on with the city."
"What kind of old man, Qingdi is a young and handsome young man, and he is not married."
"Who said it wasn't, Emperor Qing is kind-hearted and eliminates harm for the people, so it's good to have more immortal masters like this."
"Didn't the notice say, what else is the Su Nu Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect going to come here, it will be safer in the future."
"Isn't it, next year my doll will be old, and I can go and touch the fairy fate."
"Well, are we on the wrong track? When did it change its name to Blue Emperor City? Muttered to himself. As soon as the spiritual sense swept over, I saw that many of the bluestone paved streets in the past had been changed to cement roads.
In the middle of the city, in the huge square, in the sunlight stood a brand-new statue of himself, looking straight ahead, standing with his hands behind his back, his green clothes fluttering, and an orange cat carved of topaz sitting on his shoulder.
There are also countless small characters engraved under the base of the statue, which are recorded in Xuanwu City.
Li Shi was embarrassed in his heart: What the hell, what kind of trouble is this, I'm not dead yet? As he spoke, he went into the city in hiding.
In a small courtyard in the city, pushing the door in, Ouyang Mei'er, dressed in a fiery red palace dress, was standing in the courtyard and watched him come in with a smile on her face, pretending to be surprised and said loudly:
"Ah, our Lord Qingdi is back."
Glancing at the smiling sister, the courtyard door was closed, the pig jumped off his shoulder, looking for the fragrance and rushed into the house, and the two walked into the hall, and the square table was full of wine and food.
Li Shi picked up a plate of fried fried golden fish on both sides, and put it in front of the pig and asked, "What are you doing with that statue in the square?" ”
Ouyang Mei'er was pouring him wine with a wine jug, and when she heard this, her smile became even stronger, and she giggled: "This is the meaning of Aoki Academy, saying that it is necessary to set an example in troubled times, unite the people, and guide the direction of the people." ”
"It was at that time that you saved a large number of people, and when they were all together, they made that statue and set it up in the middle of the city."
Thinking of today's situation, Li Shi sighed: "In this way, I'm afraid that I will never die with the royal family." ”
"Brother doesn't need to worry, we only do ours, for the sake of the world, and now we have to do it, we can't watch the people have been in dire straits."
"It's just that I'm afraid it won't be good to meet the third princess in the future." Li Shi muttered bitterly.
"But I've done everything, and I can't care so much, so I won't talk about these bad things today, come and have a good meal with our sister and brother."
The two of them and a cat immediately pushed the cup and changed the lamp, put everything away, and ate happily.
In the sunset, the Qingdi City is lit up with some lights, and there are teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, and workshops on both sides of the street. People in bright clothes come and go in and out in an orderly manner with satisfied smiles.
There are also many open-air vendors in the open space on both sides of the street, most of which sell all kinds of food, such as buns, skewers, noodles and all kinds of snacks.
The noisy streets, the shouting of the stall owners, the laughter of children, the sound of the man's fists, and the babbling of the play, are filled with the sweet atmosphere of life.
The streets stretched east and west to the quieter avenues outside the city gates, on neat concrete roads: there were those who carried burdens, those who drove ox carts to make deliveries, and those who drove donkeys to pull wagons.
Centered on the wide square, the surrounding houses are lined up one after another, with tea houses, wine shops, schools, butcher shops, and so on.
The two of them stood incognito in the square, and a tiger-headed boy flew with a wooden sword, roaring and rushing under the statue, and the glow reflected on his face, red and endearing.
The boy shouted loudly: "When I grow up, I will be like the Green Emperor, where the sword goes, and eliminate violence and peace." May all life in the world be happy and safe. ”
The busy people around stopped their work and looked at the boy in unison, and the boy's face became redder and redder when he saw everyone looking at him, but he stubbornly tilted his little head and refused to lower it.
People laughed good-naturedly, and several men even raised their wine glasses and shouted, "Good, good boy." ”
In the shouts of the men, the boy rushed into the flow of people and disappeared, all of which was reflected in Li Shi's spiritual sense, and the face of the little man who was full of inspiration in the sea of consciousness became clearer, vaguely his own appearance.
The little light man rushed out of the sea of knowledge, looked at the bustling Qingdi City, and then floated towards the sky, the light man touched the chains, and subtle fluctuations appeared below.
"Well, I've realized it again, it's really a good seedling. This spiritual consciousness should be comparable to the late stage of the Earth Immortal, but I don't know how it was conceived. Piggy scratched his neck, his fluffy tail wrestling across his face.
Countless bright white points of light flew in the waves, faintly emitting the idea of resistance, and the points of light passed through the small body of the light man, hitting the chain with a crisp sound.
Compared with the faint thoughts of Xuanwu City, the unyielding thoughts here are more lush and condensed, and the rising points of light hit the chains, making endless noises.
The night deepened, the crowd gradually dispersed, Ouyang Mei'er looked at his flashing eyebrows, waved her hand to lay down several protective arrays, sat under the statue with her knees crossed, and stared at the young man in front of her without blinking.
Dressed in a well-fitting blue shirt, long black hair covered by a black jade crown, two cute little dimples on a round face as white and jade, and a smile in his squinting eyes.
Under the clear moonlight, the shadow of the young man was stretched out, and a ripple appeared in Ouyang Mei'er's heart: "It would be great if I could keep looking like this." A crimson rose on his white face.
Are people desperate to break the blockade? Stretched out his little hand and pulled the chain, as before he didn't move, Hikari tried countless methods, but had to give up helplessly.
Is it a struggle, those ideas are issued by people's injustice to fortune and yearning for a better life, perhaps only by opening up the wisdom of the people, allowing more people to see hope, and more people rising up, can it be possible to shake the chain.
Looking at the white of the fish belly exposed in the sky, Li Shi slowly fell down with a stomach full of questions, and I don't know if anyone has found this situation before.
