Volume 1 Life and Death Are Inseparable, Dreams of the Past Fifty-third Chapter, The First Battle of Eastern Fujian
Luo Kui's expression was calm, staring at the same calm sea: "Jingmo is a person who has no bad intentions, but he can't hide things in his shallow heart, and it is very easy to be used by others, Du Heng, we must be extra cautious in future deliberations, if we don't let him know, we don't need to let him know, if we can hide it for a day, we can hide it for a day, in this world, the person who always knows the least is the safest." ”
On the stove at the bow of the boat, the copper kettle with a long mouth and double pattern was bubbling hot, Du Heng took the silver cup with the carved twig pattern, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Luo Kui: "Oh, my subordinates have written it down." Master, the sea is cool, drink some hot tea. Fortunately, the master did not get seasick, this time in order to save the prince and Mo Gongzi, the master's injuries were not light, and he had to take extra care. ”
There was a faint sound of wind passing through the ears, and a very faint silver light swept over the sea, and when it was closer, it was faintly visible that it was a silver flickering bird, and when the sun shone, it was as if it was made of pure silver, and the bird landed steadily on the bow of the ship, standing motionless, not like a living thing.
Du Heng smiled slightly, pinched the flowers with his fingertips, and the light of the colorful glass fell on the bird's head, the bird purred, spit out a trace of silver light from its mouth, and swirled on the begonia wood carved small tea tray, and a few lines of fly-headed small Kai emerged, faintly flashing silver.
After reading it, Du Heng wiped a tea tray, the handwriting dissipated in an instant, and he refilled some hot water into the Luokui cup: "The letter said that three days ago, Shangshu Baizhu of the Ministry of Officials and Shangshu Chensha of the Criminal Department jointly played the Yongzhou case, and Yushitai also made trouble at the same time. According to the master's instructions, we followed the people who came out of Bai Shao's offering, and we really gained a lot. While King Lin was in Yeting Prison pending trial, we cut off one of his casinos and two black market banks. ”
"Okay, this time killing two birds with one stone, it can not only wash away the grievances of the eldest brother back then, but also break King Lin's money bag. Luo Kui stared at the boundless blue sea: "In the future, his wings in the court will be broken one after another, I'm afraid it will be enough for him to have heartache for a while." ”
Du Heng continued in a deep voice: "Master, Wen Yuan has also left Qingzhou and is missing. ”
"Nowhere to be found. Luo Kui's heart sank: "Where did he finally lose his trace?" ”
Du Heng said: "As soon as Wen Yuan left Qingzhou, our people followed all the way, and finally lost near Xuzhou. ”
Luo Kui closed her eyes slightly, showing a huge map in her mind, and the place where Xuzhou was located loomed in the middle, she muttered: "From Qingzhou to Beishan, Xuzhou is a must-pass place, maybe." A trace of Qingming crossed her spiritual platform, it was very bright, and her eyebrows curled slightly: "Maybe Wen Yuan is also aiming at Beishan, let's be careful, don't bump into it." ”
The sea area of the East Fujian is extremely wide, the endless sea area will enclose several pieces of land in the center, forming an independent country isolated from the world, this country has only one wharf, located in the capital Yingzhou, is the only entrance in and out of the East Min country, the wharf is paved with black boulders carved with strange inscriptions. In addition to being heavily guarded, a powerful formation was also laid out.
It is rumored that at the beginning of the formation of the land of Eastern Fujian, the open sea and land were all occupied by a nine-winged evil dragon, which disturbed the people's lives. Later, a person who eliminated the Demon Guardian Dao fought with the Nine-Winged Evil Dragon, and took the Jiuyin Mountain Range as the boundary, vowing never to disturb the human race outside the Jiuyin Mountain Range. The master laid a formation on this land, and those black boulders with strange inscriptions were the eyes of the formation.
Subsequently, the Eastern Fujian Kingdom established a state on this land and built a wharf here. Not far from the wharf, there are towering houses, where women, children and children laugh and mingle, the sun is good and the sea breeze is abundant, everyone is born strong and agile, and even the skin color is dazzling bronze.
Two people wearing hats, wearing coarse clothes, through the street, it is the waterway that has been driving for half a month without sleep, coming to Luokui and Du Heng in Yingzhou, after the two of them went ashore, they went all the way to the south without the slightest stop, and finally stopped in front of a tomb, the cold wind passed through the dry grass between the graves, and the streamer washed away the words on the stele.
Luo Kui stood in front of the grave, touching the mottled handwriting on the stele, staring at it for a long time, her heart and knees were heavy, she stumbled hard, she knelt heavily in the soil, poured a glass of wine with trembling hands, and sprinkled tears in front of the grave, choked in her throat: "Brother, little sister sees you coming." ”
Buried deep in the soil in front of him is the king of Wu Zhou Hongwu back then. At that time, King Wu was framed for advocating a thorough investigation of corruption in Yongzhou, and the whole government was deposed and went to Yanzhou.
Unexpectedly, the upper and lower mansions of King Wu were attacked on the way to exile, and they had no way to retreat, so they had to flee to the Eastern Fujian Kingdom.
Although Luo Kui and Su Zi got the news in advance, they rushed to the rescue non-stop, but the ship broke the wind and waves for more than ten days, and they had already vomited exhausted, and they just arrived on the shore and fought head-on, and only one-tenth of the remaining manpower survived.
To this day, as soon as Luo Kui closes his eyes, he can still see the bloody light of that day, and he can still hear the painful wail of that day. That day made her really understand that what she thought would be a long time in the future would eventually become a void, there is really no long future in this world, too many people are leaving the scene suddenly, and there is no chance for her to regret it.
Luo Kui raised a pair of hands to see, how many people's lives were harmed by these hands, how many people's blood were stained, even she couldn't remember clearly, she just understood one thing, these lives, these bloodstains became retribution, retribution was on her relatives, there were too many tears shed over the years, and they were almost all drained. Now she only feels heartache, but her eyes are dry, and she can't shed a single tear: "Du Heng, big brother is lying here, it will be very cold." ”
Du Heng grabbed her trembling hand, helped her to sit under the tree, and gritted his teeth word by word: "Master, this Yongzhou matter has been concluded, and His Royal Highness King Wu's grievances will definitely be washed away, and he can be blinded, and he will not be cold." ”
Luo Kui nodded slightly, what about washing away the grievances, that person can't come back after all, born as a human being, whether to stay up with grievances day by day, or to leave a clear name and die decisively, this is an eternal choice that is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong. She groaned slightly, remembered something important, and raised her eyes and said, "Du Heng, how far is Lilac's former home from here." ”
Du Heng understood what she meant, and lowered his head and said: "According to the map, it's just a two-mile distance, can the master go and take a look." ”
Luo Kui narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "It's rare to come here, so naturally I want to go and see it, but it's not enough for such a black-hearted family to just take a look." ”
Du Heng pursed his lips and smiled: "Does the master mean to scare and scare them?" ”
Luo Kui looked at Du Heng's gentle face fixedly, and looked at his mean sneer reflected in his gentle eyes, and he was startled: "You have the best kung fu to scare people, naturally it is most suitable for you to go, I'll just watch the excitement." ”
The two of them turned a corner, turned around to a village not far from here, and stayed there for a cup of tea, and then left very quickly.
The southernmost side of Yingzhou is a continuous high mountain dense forest, the trunk and leaves are all weird red, from a distance, the whole mountain seems to be burned by fire, but the mountain here is high and dense, there is no sunlight all day long, it is as gloomy and cold as winter, and there are often people lost in the mountains, and there are no dead people alive or dead.
It is rumored that there is a dragon-like monster entrenched in this mountain, but it has a few more pairs of wings than a dragon, and under word of mouth, this mountain has become a forbidden mountain, and the hunters only dare to chop wood and hunt on the side of the mountain, and no one dares to set foot in the deep mountains and dense forests.
On the evening of this day, Luo Kui and Du Heng walked through the dense forest and finally came to the bottom of this strange Yin Fire Mountain Range.
Luo Kui sat cross-legged under the tree, Yuehua wrapped a compass in front of her, she stared for a moment, only to see a faint light in front of her, her lips moved slightly, silently recited: "Secret room secret, out; ”
The glimmer of light immediately solidified, and Luo Kui's fingertips tapped, leading the Yuehua to turn around on his fingertips, and the blood beads poured out, blending with Yuehua and submerging into the compass.
The compass buzzed, jumped up and hung in the air, Luo Kui lowered his eyebrows, and shouted softly: "Be one with your body." The compass floated steadily in the void, and the light on it was great, and Luo Kui pinched it, and the wide sleeves were lightly flicked, as if a gust of wind swept by, and the light turned into points, and it spun non-stop.
Luo Kui got up, walked like Ling Bo's clothes, the continuous white mangs hit the compass, and turned into a brilliant starlight, the light gradually turned from white to blue, condensed to a place, a blue beast appeared out of thin air, only to see its born dragon head elk body, dragged a slender oxtail behind him, two pairs of horseshoe under his feet, covered with fish scales, and the whole body was dazzling blue light.
As soon as the little beast appeared, it spit out droplets of water flowing with blue rays, slowly rotating around its body.
The magic trick in Luo Kui's mouth did not stop, and the water droplets also turned faster and faster, and finally turned into small golden characters, after a few flashes, a gust of night wind blew, and the golden small characters turned into a handful of gravel, disappearing in the void.
Luo Kui's figure shook violently, his hands slowly drooped down to collect the spell, and the moment the compass fell to the ground, the little beast suddenly turned into a handful of light again, returning to heaven and earth.
Du Heng hurriedly stepped forward to support Luo Kui, and said softly: "Master, how is it." ”
Luo Kui took the compass into his arms and looked into the distance: "Let's go all the way to the west, we will definitely be able to find the dragon scale grass." ”
Du Heng said in a low voice: "Master, General Su said that there is a nine-winged evil dragon entrenched in this mountain, so you have to be careful." ”
Luo Kui's eyebrows frowned: "It is rumored that the nine-winged evil dragon has survived from ancient times to the present, and it is said in the ancient books that it is called Kunbu, which is very difficult, if it weren't for the dragon scale grass in the Yin Fire Mountain Range, I wouldn't want to come, if my cultivation is still there, with the two of us joining forces, it is not impossible to fight, but now." ”
Du Heng raised his hand and looked at the palm of his hand, and there was a yellowish light flickering. He suddenly clenched his fists and said softly: "Master, don't worry, my subordinates have brought out the treasures in the temple, and they will be foolproof." ”
Luo Kui pursed her lips and smiled: "Let's just find a few herbs, where is it so coincidental, we will meet him." ”
