Chapter 17 Shinto Monument

A breeze blew through the end of the street, and the leaves of the locust trees rustled.

Under the shadow of the tree, a scholar in a green shirt with a clear temperament and a middle-aged scribe with an elegant face were talking.

When Li Xiangyi first entered Wudou Street and met three roadblockers, he still maintained the appearance of a green-shirted swordsman, and his name was "Li Yinjiu in the world".

And when he came to the big locust tree, he saw the general under the tree, and he recovered his true body.

When he made a salute, his name was also changed to "Li Xiangyi in the world".

The two played against each other and chatted at the same time.

After the greetings, the general who held the white made a "big fly", flew to attack Li Xiangyi's black chess dragon, and asked, "Why did Mr. come tonight?" ”

Li Xiangyi "Xiaojian" came out and replied: "I want to bother the general." ”

"What?"

"After the clan was liquidated and swept away, the city of Falling Star City has been 'wide open', and no one is stationed, so I take the liberty to ask the general to guard this city and protect the people in the city."

The general, who was just about to make another move, paused with the chess pieces in his hand, and smiled after a moment: "A certain ghost thing, how can he manage the affairs of the world?" ”

Li Xiangyi said sincerely: "Although the general has died, he is heroic and eternal, and he only needs to move the big sword lightly to protect the peace of the people in the city." ”

The general fell lightly and remained silent.

The three generals who were guarding not far away shook when they heard Li Xiangyun's words, and their eyes looked at him strangely.

At the same time, the fog around the big locust tree drifted and became much thicker.

In the mist, there are faint clusters of trees, not as tall as the locust tree, but the branches are twisting and strong, more like a plum tree.

When Li Xiangyun saw these scenes, a faint smile appeared on his face.

He didn't speak, patiently waiting for the general's response.

"Smack!"

The general lightly dropped the white piece, and instead of attacking Li Xiangyi's black chess, he chose to retreat to the lower right corner and encircle himself in the world.

At the same time, he said: "The chess game has changed, and my brothers and I have finally become wandering ghosts, and we can't see anyone, but I'm afraid that I have the trust of Mr. Negative." ”

Li Xiangyun looked at the chessboard, the general surrounded the small corner, trapped on one side, and he didn't pay attention to it.

Instead, he dropped a disc on the edge of a black disc surrounded by white in another place.

With this son, the black son who had already fallen into a dead situation suddenly came back to life and rushed out of the white array encirclement, like a flying dragon in the sky.

Then he said: "Waking up from a dream is a guest home, the general and a group of tiger warriors have been trapped in a corner of this martial arts street, haven't you missed your hometown and don't want to go back to the world to see?" ”

"Even if you can't return to the world for the time being, it's good to look at this Falling Star City, look at the Southern Great Domain, and look at the entire Candlelight Cave Heaven."

The plum forest around the big locust tree was windless, and the three generals on the side all glared at Li Xiangyun angrily.

Obviously, these words made it difficult for them to calm down.

The general dressed as a scribe glanced at the plum grove in the mist, then at the three henchmen not far away, and finally at the scholar in the green shirt.

On his elegant and calm face, he said with a wry smile: "Mr. is really worthy of being a Confucian scholar, just such a few simple words make it difficult for the brothers to settle down." ”

"However, a certain is not blindly escaping from the world, even if I have the heart to agree to Mr.'s invitation, I am really not suitable to appear in front of the world in the current situation."

"In the middle of the night, the remnant souls appear through the mist, and fighting with some monks is already the limit, if it appears in broad daylight, it will definitely attract heavenly punishment."

"Although this candlelight cave is not as big as the world, it has its own laws of heaven and earth, yin and yang boundaries."

Hearing these words, the anger in the eyes of the three generals on the side, and the eagerness under the anger, instantly disappeared.

Merlin, who was surrounded by shadows, also quieted down.

Li Xiangyun seemed to have expected this, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the general is worried about this, don't worry, since the younger generation dares to come and invite the general and the tiger warriors out of the mountain, there is naturally a way to deal with it." ”

"Do you have a way to deal with it? How to deal with it? ”

Li Xiangyi replied: "I can erect a Shinto monument for the general, as long as this monument is erected in the city lord's mansion, not to mention the approval of the small world of Candlelight Cave Heaven, at least within the Falling Star City and a radius of three hundred miles, the general and all the soldiers can walk without taboo." ”

There was a hint of surprise on the general's face.

The three generals next to him were a little unconvinced.

One of them couldn't hold back and said: "Wu that boy, don't you want to coax the general, although I can't see through your realm, but I have watched you fight with the Zong clan, you are at most nine or ten realms." ”

"How dare you say big things and erect a Shinto monument so that the general can live in broad daylight for a long time without being bound by yin and yang?"

Li Xiangyi looked at the general, then at the other two, and finally at the general on the opposite side of the chessboard.

"How? Do you dare to say that it is not a deception? If the general really believes your words and walks out of this martial arts street, do you know what the consequences will be? ”

"That boy, his heart can be punished!"

Li Xiangyi did not respond to these words, but paused, and said calmly: "General, I am a protΓ©gΓ© of Hanshan Academy, one of the four major Confucian academies in Beizhigezhou. ”

"Before coming to Nanmenghuazhou, I once promoted a heaven and earth rectification on a barren mountain, so that a peach blossom demon whose soul was shattered and whose life was on the verge of death was named the god of heaven and earth."

"So I dare to say that as long as the general is willing to let me erect a Shinto monument for the king, the general and all the soldiers will definitely return to the world."

The three generals on the side were stunned at the same time.

The general was also surprised.

Even the entire Wudou Street is quiet.

"Heaven and earth are sealed? You led a heaven and earth rectification? ”

"Yes, General Mingjian, this kind of thing can't be faked, if I don't do this, how dare I use it to coax the general? Shogun, please look! ”

When the words fell, Li Xiangyi flicked his long sleeves, and a pair of "Dazhou Shendao Map" composed of mountains and rivers and divine fire in the world immediately appeared on the chessboard.

This picture captures the scenery of the mountains and rivers of Gezhou in the north.

The general and his soldiers, although they come from Nanmenghuazhou for thousands of years, have an understanding of the situation of the mountains and rivers in the world.

Seeing the familiar mountains and rivers in the "Continent Shinto Map", the general's eyes couldn't help but moisten a little.

Although I have been away from the world for thousands of years, I have never forgotten the memories that belong to my hometown.

"Mr. really contributed to a heaven and earth seal, and he is really a genius in the world!"

With this continent Shinto map, there should be no false things about the righteousness of heaven and earth, if not, as a Confucian scholar, how can he be recognized by Beizhou Shinto?

The three generals were also shocked and in awe, looking at the green-shirted scholar sitting in front of them.

They really underestimated him, just a Confucian student, who had not even stepped into the half-step holy realm, but was able to dominate the heaven and earth to seal the righteousness, such a grand event, they had never heard of.

Thousands of years later, has the world become so prosperous and powerful?

Facing their eyes of surprise or reverence, Li Xiangyun behaved very indifferently.

"The general praised it falsely, it was just a fluke, but this move gave me some insight into collusion with heaven and earth."

"So, the general still doubts about the Shinto monument?"

The general shook his head: "I don't dare to doubt Mr. anymore, but how can Mr. confirm that a certain story can be entered into the Shinto Monument and recognized by the laws of the Cave Heaven Dao?" ”

Li Xiangyi took out a book from his arms and said, "When I first entered the Falling Star City during the day, I bought this book in Jinxiuzhai in the south of the city, and after reading the life of the general and the soldiers, I was inexplicably impressed. ”

"Not to mention the erection of a Shinto monument, even if it is a book and a general, it is worthy of it."

The general took the book handed over by Li Xiangyi, and saw that the book cover was written with five words "The Biography of the Plum Blossom History".

Seeing this name, the general looked stunned and seemed to be a little embarrassed.

And the three generals next to him were very excited: "In this Falling Star City, there is a biography of the general?" ”

"Sir, may you let me wait to read this book?"

"Of course."

Li Xiangyi handed back the book to the three generals, and the breeze blew and it reached their hands.

They immediately gathered together and flipped through it.

In the misty plum forest, one figure after another also came out, all gathered around the three generals to circulate the "Plum Blossom History Biography" together.

After a long time, a general said with tears on his face: "The world has not forgotten the general, and there is not a trace of bias and belittlement in this book." ”

"General, the world is still praising your merits and prestige!"

At the end, the three generals, together with all the soldiers who came out of the plum forest, bowed to Li Xiangyun and said, "Thank you, sir!" ”

"Don't dare to be, the juniors can't afford such a big gift!"

Li Xiangyun hurriedly got out of the way, not daring to accept the salute.

The soldiers still bowed three times in a row, and when they got up, they looked at Li Xiangyan's eyes, still full of gratitude.

Li Xiangzuo replied with a big salute: "It should be the younger generation to meet all the soldiers, the generals and the seniors, all of whom are heroes of heaven and earth. ”

"With you in the world, Jiuzhou has you, and only now can we have peace and prosperity!"

After worshipping each other, the general waved his hand, and the generals immediately fell silent.

"Sir, please be seated!"

"The general is polite."

"Although they have already worshipped, but thank you Mr. so, the brothers followed me to swear to kill the enemy, died on the battlefield, and lost their souls, with this book to record their exploits, I think that those brothers who know under the spring should be enough to comfort."

Obviously, in addition to these figures here, there are many soldiers who once followed the general, who have completely perished, and there is not a trace of soul left.

"It should be."

"Mr. Li, at this moment, I will no longer shirk with you, I am willing to go out of Wudou Street and protect the people in the city for a hundred years."

"So, in the next generation of the people of the city, thank you general!"

Li Xiangyi thanked him and finally put his mind at ease.

After the Zong clan was liquidated, Falling Star City was empty, and it was impossible for him to stay here for a long time, but now that this great general was in charge, he could finally leave with peace of mind.

After discussing with the general for a while, Li Xiangyi took the lead in leaving.

Without waiting for him to return to the City Lord's Mansion, the old patriarchs of the four major families of Zhao, Qian, Sun, and Li came over together, and they all expressed their willingness to surrender to Li Daxia.

Li Xiangyun has once again incarnated as a green-shirted swordsman.

When he made it clear that he would not stay here for long, they expressed their willingness to reluctantly take over the burden of guarding Falling Star City.

Li Xiangyun didn't tell them directly, but sent them away and asked them to come back to the City Lord's Mansion the next day.

As a result, at noon the next day, when the old patriarchs of the four major families, together with some big merchants and gangs in the city, arrived at the main hall of the city lord's mansion, they found that there was an unfamiliar stone tablet on the white marble square in front of the main hall.

On the front of the stele there are only three big characters of "Shi Gong Monument".

On the back of it, there is only one pair of elegiac couplets:

The martyrdom is in the lonely city of Jiangbei, with water and mountains left, and there is still strong grass in the wind

The funeral clothes are crowned with Huainan cup soil, ice heart and iron bones, and a good companion to take the plum blossoms on the ridge.

The old patriarchs of the four major families looked at each other when they saw this stone tablet.

"What is this?"

I asked around, but it turned out that no one knew what was going on.

At this time, Li Xiangyi appeared, still looking like a green-shirted swordsman, and said with a smile: "Falling Star City already has a master, you can do your best to assist." ”

Then he departed in style.

Just when everyone was inexplicable and didn't know what the situation was, a middle-aged scribe with a slender figure and an elegant face walked into the square in the afternoon sun.

Behind him was a group of mighty soldiers.

……

Li Xiangyi left the entire Falling Star City to the general.

Then he came to a hill outside the city, and with a wave of his sleeves, a group of people flew out of his sleeves.

These are the people who were rescued by him and put into the [Sleeve Universe].

"Thank you for the rescue!"

There is no need for Li Xiangyi to say, these people know that it was the green-shirted swordsman in front of them who saved them, otherwise they would have died long ago, or they would have been refined into "human medicine" and "secret medicine guard".

"You're welcome, I'm entrusted by someone to come from Tianxiang Country to rescue you, I have a few questions, and I want you to answer them."

"Although the hero commands, we must know everything, and we must say everything."

"Good!"

Then Li Xiangyi began to ask for advice.

……

Just when Li Xiangyi released everyone, in a valley two hundred miles away from Falling Star City, Zong Zisha, the fourth young master of the Zong family, sat paralyzed on the ground.

At this time, his face became even more vain, his body was even more embarrassed, and the original gorgeous brocade robe on his body was already in tatters.

"Falling Star City ......"

He looked at Falling Star City in the distance, his eyes full of horror.

"Fourth young master, stay in the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood, don't worry too much, isn't there still a big young master?"

"Yes, Xiaoqin, you're right, and big brother. But the father, mother, uncle, and second uncle are all dead, can the eldest brother avenge them and kill the green-shirted swordsman? ”

Thinking of the appearance of the green-shirted swordsman, Zong Zisha couldn't help but shudder and shuddered.

At this time, there was only one female guard named Xiaoqin by his side.

Last night, when the city lord Zong Fenglong was killed in battle, and there was a panic in the city, it was this Xiaoqin who brought him out.

"The green-shirted swordsman...... The eldest young master is definitely not his opponent at the moment, but there is some hope for the future. ”

"Really? I must kill him to avenge my father and mother, and the foundation of my clan for hundreds of years has been destroyed by him. ”

"Don't worry, Fourth Young Master, it will be, it's just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that you can't see that day anymore."

Laugh at!

A sharp blade pierced the chest of the fourth young master of the sect family.
