The ginger is still old and spicy, and the wine is still old.

Uncle Li also traveled to the rivers and lakes when he was young, read countless people, rich experience, maybe the old man saw the strangeness in my eyes, just when I was about to leave the wooden house, Uncle Li smiled gently, and said, "Girl, you don't say hello, so you suddenly returned to your hometown, and hesitated in Fangcai, as if there is something unfinished, girl, are you in trouble?" ”

My mind was pierced by Uncle Li's words, and my face was very embarrassed, but I could only bite my lip lightly, nodded and said resignedly, "Uncle Li, there was something wrong, but now, it's okay!" ”

Second Master Wang smiled heartily, got up and pulled me back to my seat, and said with a pleasant face, "I sleep with your Uncle Li on weekdays, and even the Chinese New Year's Eve has not been able to change this rule." But today I survived until the end of the day, girl, guess why? Ha ha! It's not to let everyone sleep, let's talk about some heart-wrenching business? The family doesn't talk to each other, since you are here, it means that you don't treat the people of Houlonggang as outsiders, so your uncle I hope you don't treat us as outsiders now. ”

Second Master Li said all this, and there seemed to be crystal in my eyes.

The world thinks that people are old and useless, but in fact, as everyone knows, there is an old family like a treasure!

So, I no longer concealed it, and told the second elder concisely about this trip, but when I talked about the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple being intercepted and killed by the Jiang clan, I added a lot of fuel and vinegar, mainly to further arouse the indignation of the second elder.

Things went surprisingly well, and after listening to what I said, the second elder just glanced at each other with a pleasant face, and agreed in unison: Okay!

Crisp and neat, without any hesitation, just like I promised General Liu that day.

Beihai is like a small lotus showing sharp corners, staring at me with big eyes, fresh and moving.

Many, many years later, the young saint Xie Yun revised the history of the Han Dynasty, and at that time, I was already an old dragon clock, and I specially entered the palace to meet the holy lord and explain the righteousness of the two elders to the holy lord.

is already a holy lord with gray temples, grateful for the righteousness of Uncle Li and Second Master Wang, and specially asked Xie Yun to add a simple and simple sentence in "History of the Han Dynasty": Uncle Li and Second Master Wang, pure and simple, righteous as a mountain, good start and finish.

After getting the promise of Uncle Li and Second Master Wang, I finally breathed a sigh of relief, thanked the two old men again and again, and walked out of the village alone.

It is already in the middle of the moon, although it is early winter, the wind blowing from the top of the mountain is extremely cold, looking at the stars and the continuous lights behind me, I took out the waist bag, carefully looked at the four words "dark and sunny", and suddenly gave birth to a sigh.

......

That night, after Jiang Jie's body was taken away, Li Yanfeng was about to part ways with me.

According to Li Yanfeng, these two tips were sent by General Liu Yi and Li Yanfeng together with the letter of entrustment sent by General Liu a month ago, and as soon as the person appointed by General Liu arrived, he immediately gave Li Yanfeng the tips and asked Li Yanfeng to explain to the visitor: If things are calm, then act according to the 'calm wind', and if things change, act according to the 'dark sun'. No matter which article is followed, the task of Northern Youwan will be invincible.

Li Yanfeng asked me to choose one of the two more tips.

I went to recruit soldiers to act in secret, originally Jiang Jie's death was fine, but Jiang Jie's body was stolen, and there were branches, so I had to take the 'dark sun'.

I hope that this 'dark sun' can call me 'calm and calm'.

......

The mountain wind blew, I wrapped in a heavy coat, lying on the firewood pile of the Houlonggang mountain, looking at the starry sky, I thought: General Liu is thoughtful, not leaky, from his emergence in the five years, he can come to this day, by no means just rely on luck and the budding yin of his father.

Therefore, it is always not wrong to believe in General Liu, follow General Liu, and obey General Liu.

Even if it's wrong, it's wrong over there, I will never regret it.

After thinking about it, I went back to the house, emptied my distractions, and fell asleep slowly.

Since Dayu ruled the water, through the Chinese landscape, for thousands of years, the Chinese integration, blood and blood, the Shennong, the brave and incomparable Jiuli, the extremely intelligent Youchao, the Fuxi and so on. Many ethnic groups with strong innate bloodlines, with continuous migration and reproduction, the bloodlines are declining day by day, and gradually disappearing in the long river of history. As a trivial branch of the ancient bloodline Xia Hou clan, my Beijian clan is naturally no exception.

Time has passed, and there are few people of the Beiju tribe with pure blood. In addition, the evil dragon on Taibai Mountain has been a disaster for Chisong County for many years, and the Beizhu clan has declined again. A few years ago, General Liu recruited the Beijian people to assist him in going north to Tianchi, and there were only more than 100 Beiju people in the 36 Gangs of the Five Mountains and Eighteen Villages in Chisong County. Presumably, there are less than 500 people in the Beijian tribe who are still alive today. And as Akamatsu County is becoming more and more prosperous, people are determined, no one wants to live a military life of licking blood on the tip of a knife, and the people from Beijiao who can come to sign up for the army must not even be one-tenth.

Based on this, I have always been pessimistic about the number of people recruited in this trip.

Jiang Feng has an army of tens of thousands, and if I recruit 180 people, I really won't quench my thirst, but if I want to recruit more than 1,000 people from the Beijian tribe, in my opinion, it is tantamount to a fool's dream, and if I can recruit 800 soldiers, I will be satisfied.

In fact, I underestimated the appeal of Uncle Li and Second Master Wang, and also underestimated the determination of the people of Chisong County to repay General Liu's kindness.

Uncle Li and Wang Erye raised their arms and shouted, plus the people of Chisong County thanked General Liu for his kindness, and the thirty-six posts of five mountains, eighteen villages and thirty-six posts responded one after another, and the whole recruitment process did not have too many twists and turns, and more than 1,000 young and strong men who had no intention of farming and were eager to make contributions became the first batch of soldiers in the North Guard Army.

I was able to recruit more than 1,000 people at once, which was beyond my expectations.

However, the current situation of the Beiju people is not much different from my estimate, among the more than 1,000 young people, there are only more than 70 Beiju people, and most of the Beiju people have chosen to live the life of ordinary people, and more than 70 people can come, which is far beyond imagination, and I am also satisfied.

The recruitment was proper, I didn't delay too much time, I wrote a letter to Li Yanfeng, and said goodbye to Uncle Li and Second Master Wang, who were busy relocating the fugitives caused by the defeat of the Qin army by the five armies in the east, and divided the more than 1,000 people into zero, and scattered to Shuiheguan Houshan in batches or on official roads or by small roads.

I also disguised myself as a village woman, took Beihai with me, carried a bag of dry food, disguised myself as a fugitive, and walked along the main road.

All the way was unharmed, and a few days later, I saw the boundary monument of Chisong and Zhangwu counties.

My heart, with a few days of stability, gradually relaxed my vigilance, saw the boundary monument, and finally settled down.

"Little Beihai, after this bend, you will pass through Chisong County. A few more counties, it is Shuiheguan, and at that time, you will be separated by a mountain from your eldest brother Liu Yi! "Beihai and I took a break on the side of the road and chatted first.

"Hey! I haven't seen you for a few years, and I don't know what Brother Liu Yi looks like! The sturdy Beihai sat there like a hill, gnawed on dry food, and said in a humble voice, "Before leaving, Uncle Li and Second Master Wang asked me to follow Brother Liu Yi to work hard, and in the future, I will be a big official and return to my hometown, so as to glorify my ancestors." ”

I looked at me firmly and resolutely said, "Good! ”
