Chapter 134: Paying Tribute to the Heroic Soul Drinking Wine
Ding Kun said: "If my brother is willing to come, I will naturally not restrain my brother with the royal law......"
Jing Ming said: "Emperor, there are talented people in the country, the huge empire, there are many talents, and they will come when they are called, so why embarrass my brothers!" ”
Ding Kun was helpless, so he had to say: "Alas! In that case, I won't force it. However, can Sun Ziyang and Cheng Xuan, who came with them, stay and lead the troops for the Celestial Empire? ”
Jing Ming said: "I can't call the shots about this, I have to ask the two of you." ”
So Ding Kun asked Jing Ming to convey this intention to Sun Ziyang and Cheng Xuan. Jing Ming had no choice but to agree.
That night, Jing Ming saw his two grandsons, Yang and Cheng Xuan, explaining Ding Kun's wishes. Neither agreed to stay. Jing Ming persuaded the two of them: "The two of them stayed, in fact, it was also the meaning of Master Li Helm." It has two meanings, one is the ambition of all two gallops; The second is also to play a role in supervising Ding Kun. ”
The two of them had to agree when they heard Jing Ming say this. So the three of them went to see Ding Kun together. Ding Kun was overjoyed and immediately appointed Sun Ziyang as the general of Ziyang to guard Yangcheng; Cheng Xuan was appointed as the general of Lixuan, guarded Goose City, and placed the rest of Zhou Cheng under the command of the two generals. Jing Ming arranged everything properly, and immediately took his leave and returned to Montenegro, and went to report to Lord Li Helm.
After that, Ding Kun cleared the remnants of Zhou Cheng, began to lightly punish the meager endowment, opened up the way of speech, rewarded farming, and the empire was no longer displaced, and gradually returned to his homeland to recuperate. I didn't talk about it after that.
However, it was said that after Jing Ming returned to Montenegro, Li Niu and Li Helm gathered the Montenegrin brothers, sacrificed the "brother" Daxu, put the cattle, sheep and pigs on the three animals, and paid tribute to the Wu Helm and the sacrificed brothers, and reviewed the oath of the Montenegrin Association, the west wind was sassy and solemn.
Li Niu took out the sacrificial text that had been prepared long ago and handed it to Jing Mingdao: "This is the sacrificial text written by Ma Puma Junshi, you can read it to all the living and dead brothers!" ”
Jing Ming took it and read aloud:
"The time is September, and the order belongs to the third autumn. After the earth, let's learn from this!
My Montenegrin brothers because of the Holy Dynasty's abuse of ministers and violence, there is no way to make a living, so they gather here, often have the heart of doing the right thing for the heavens, and the idea of establishing a life for the people, first elected Wu Dongyuan as the chief helmsman, Hu Laosan, Zhang Wang, Han Laibao, Li Niu, etc. as the helmsman, with Eagle Claw Mountain Ma Biao as the military advisor, led the Montenegrin Association fathers and brothers a total of more than 1,000 people, robbed the rich and helped the poor, assassinated, greedy, killed and abused, and fought many times with the Black Armor Army of the Holy Dynasty, so as to overthrow the Holy Dynasty and establish the Heavenly Dynasty!
Later, Li Niu was elected as the chief helmsman, with Ma Biao, Jing Ming, Sun Ziyang, Cheng Xuan, etc. as the helmsmen, defeating the enemy, serving the country and the people, and the merit is in the future!
Looking at the past, my Montenegrin brothers are the same enemy, and they fight Kou Yun together, which is singable, crying, sad and lamentable!
And today, the beginning of the dynasty, the beginning of all industries, the mission of our Montenegro Association has been completed, so there is this ......"
Reading this, Jing Ming's voice suddenly stopped. He turned his head to look at Li Niu and Ma Biao, only to see that the two of them had nothing to do, as if they already knew the contents.
Li Niu said to Jing Ming with a calm face: "Jing Ming, keep reading!" ”
Jing Ming was helpless, so he had to continue reading: "...... Therefore, there is this to comfort the souls of all Montenegrin heroes in the sky! From today onwards, the Montenegro Society will dissolve itself, and the brothers can go down the mountain to fend for themselves, and each will have a destiny, and in the future, they will either walk on Yangguan Avenue or stand on the edge of the cliff, but they must not mention the word 'Montenegro' again......"
Reading this, Jing Ming stopped again.
Ma Biao stepped forward, took the sacrificial text in Jing Ming's hand, and continued to read: "...... What I said above, please brothers swear by blood and do not violate it, otherwise you will be punished by God! The Black Mountain Society, as of today, will be dissolved! Woohoo mourning, the heroic soul is still feasting! He then threw the ritual into the fire and quickly turned into a wisp of smoke. At this moment, a gust of autumn wind came, blowing the green smoke in the vast mountains......
"Why? How so? "I can't figure it out!" "Well rudder master! Why? The brothers looked at each other and talked about it.
Ma Biao stepped forward and said, "This is the end of the sacrifice!" Tonight, a feast for the brothers! Scattered! Then he hurried away. A brother stepped forward to ask, but Ma Biao waved his hand and said nothing.
In fact, Jing Ming's inner struggle is very fierce! Don't say that the brothers can't figure it out, even Jing Ming can't figure it out! But since this sacrificial text was read by Jing Ming, he felt that Jing Ming should know the same content, and they all came to Jing Ming: "Master Jing Rudder, why?" Brothers don't go! ”
Jing Ming said: "Brothers, don't worry! Don't worry! Didn't the helmsman say that at the feast tonight, if you have something to say, you can still talk about it! Come back! Let's go back! ”
The cool breeze gusted that night, and the fire was blazing. Everyone sat around multiple floors, and there was a fire in the middle, and the flames went straight into the black sky, and the firewood beeped.
Li Niu sat in front of the desk, raised a bowl full of sorghum wine and said, "Brothers! Serve it all up, and it's done! After this bowl of wine, I have something to tell you! ”
Everyone drank the wine in the bowl one after another, waiting for Li Niu to speak. Li Niu stood up and glanced at everyone.
Everyone was silent for an instant, and they all looked at Li Niu. The firelight reflected Li Niu's face, and even the mole could be seen clearly.
"Brothers! At today's ceremony, it was said that the Black Mountain Association would be disbanded, and everyone couldn't figure it out. I didn't discuss this with everyone beforehand, but I had the idea. In fact, the Jing Ming brothers didn't know about this matter. Here I can clearly tell you some of these reasons, and of course, there are some reasons that cannot be explained, and you can understand them for yourself. ”
Speaking of this, Li Niu glanced at Ma Biao, and Ma Biao nodded at Li Niu.
Li Niu continued: "Everyone! Today, we have read our oath of the Montenegrin Association, to do the right thing for heaven and eliminate violence, which is our original intention. And today, the dynasty has been built, the four seas are unified, and we have struggled for so many years, which can be said to be a great contribution. But in the eyes of the people under the mountain, they are still grass. Although we have never spoken out about the hardships of life on the mountain, I know that some of our brothers have long passed the age of thirty or forty, but they are still single......"
At this point, the brothers began to sigh.
"At the beginning, in order to do great things, we set strict rules for the meeting, which made everyone tired. Now, the mission of our Montenegrin Society has been completed, and the dead brothers have no blessing to enjoy the coming peaceful and prosperous times; And those of us who are alive, if we are still guarding this Black Mountain, it is not much meaning, it is better to go back to our homes, and we should have parents to support our parents, and we should start a family, raise children, and live the life of ordinary people......"
Speaking of this, Li Niu couldn't help but shed tears: "Don't mention anything else, let's just say I'm Li Niu, I was a thief when I was young, I was an apprentice, I killed people and sold goods, slept in flowers and willows, and I also did a lot of ridiculous things, and now I am nearly fifty years old, and I really can't make trouble......"
