Liu Li turned his head to look at the old man and said in a low voice: "Ah Shun, that is Sun Daguan, and the rest are my brothers in life and death." You have to send them to Zhenhaiwei, and let Brother Mingshan send you to the sea, where to go without me saying, you know. You will follow the second brother in the future and protect him, in the future... The second brother is the lord of the Liu family. ”

Ah Shun couldn't hold back, and also shed tears, he knelt under the bed and said sadly: "My old life was originally Liu's, big brother, you can rest assured." ”

Liu Li suddenly grabbed Liu Guan's hand with all the strength of his body, and hissed: "Second brother, you can't leave Sun Daguan for a moment... The life of the Liu clan is on you alone, if you are confused and reckless, and you break a big thing, I will be a ghost... I will not spare you. After that, he died of anger.

Liu Guan cried loudly, he couldn't help but be sad, Ah Shun covered his mouth, Liu Guan struggled and couldn't get out, and his mouth made a whining sound. Lao Ah Shun held Liu Guan to death and cried silently.

Lin Yanghao and Li Qiqian stood speechless, and couldn't help but feel sad in their hearts. Although Liu Li is cunning and fickle and deceives everyone, he has to admit that this person is wise and brave, without Liu Li, they would never have survived now. Now that this greatest reliance is gone, what should we do in the future? The two looked at Emperor Chongwen blankly.

I saw Emperor Chongwen quietly turn around and slowly walk to the courtyard, still not saying a word.

Emperor Chongwen is a person who has died once, he is not afraid of death, his own death and the death of others are nothing. It's just that he feels a little sad that he has lost another partner.

He didn't know why Liu Li, Wu Liang, Wang Hui, and Luo Hong risked their lives to save him, and what made them feel that they were more important than their lives? If it was a few days ago, maybe he still believed this set of nonsense, but now the world is not the original world, and he is not the original Chongwen Tianzi. He never trusts anything anymore, he knows that there are some things in the world that are credible, but he still can't think of it, what is credible and what is suspicious.

He's like a walking dead these days, and there's only one reason: he doesn't know what to say or do. He found that he had entered a completely unfamiliar world, which overwhelmed him, and he was worried that doing something wrong would damage his dignity as an emperor, and even more worried about harming everyone's lives, he carefully observed and learned from others.

In this new world, he is like a naïve boy, not to mention that compared with Liu Li and Qi Lutong, even if he is the boy named Catfish Boy next to Ah Shun, he is not as good, how dare he talk nonsense?

He has a complete education, and these fighting men cannot be compared. But he was educated entirely to deal with another world, a world full of sage morality, where everyone gave way to etiquette, and was graceful, even with malice, with a smile on their faces. The rule there is that you have to wear a righteous hat in whatever you do, and it doesn't matter what the truth of the matter is. In that world, he knew what to say and do, and he was comfortable and in good spirits.

But now, he was faced with a new, completely alien world, and his education was useless. In this world, everyone is struggling on the brink of life and death, behaving rudely, fighting like wild beasts, killing at any time, and being killed at any time. In this world, everyone has to wear shabby clothes, run desperately under the scorching sun and rain, starve, and suffer pain all over their bodies. At this time, if you want to have clean clothes, elegant shapes, and decent language, isn't that crazy?

If you want to live, you only have a decisive decision in an instant, and you can move quickly, just like Liu Li. That's ridiculous, when you kill people with a knife, you think about these messes, do you think you have a long life?

Just look at Liu Li, but Qiang Ming is still dead, he lives as a cunning scoundrel, dies with a clear conscience, but his luck is extremely poor.

For life and death, in the past world, he believed in the teachings of the saints: keep the good way of death. The Tao is more important than death, and we should not hesitate to die for the sake of the Tao. But what is the Tao? In the past, he thought that the Tao was the supreme principle of the world, benevolence and filial piety, the mandate of heaven, and the great righteousness, but now it seems really ridiculous.

In this new world, everyone is fighting for their lives and the lives of their companions, and no one knows who will fall in the next moment. There is only one rule here, that is, to live, to live with all your might, and no matter how humble your life is, it is also a great way.

In the old world, death was just a concept, a prop. Although it is terrible, but after all, it is far away, and everyone has the leisure time to live in secret, putting on a beautiful hat for everything. But if you get these useless things here, you won't survive for an hour. This world advocates simplicity and directness, eat when you are hungry, run if you can't fight, steal if you don't have clothes, rob if you want a woman, who still goes to the three media and six hires, Nagina Cai.

He knew that his life was very important, not because of everyone's love and martyrdom, but because his life decided the lives of many people. Some people desperately want to kill him, and some people desperately want to protect him, but in fact, it is only for more people to live, and this kind of loyalty really makes people care about life and death.

Wu Liang said that if you want to live, it's as simple as that. The love formed because of survival seems to be stronger and more trustworthy than the relationship between the monarch and the minister formed by the righteousness. Could it be that he was a lowly eunuch who understood the meaning of life and death better than a saint?

He kind of understood why he lost to Emperor Uncle Yan Wang, because King Yan, like Emperor Gao, understood both the elegant world and the fierce world. If he wants to return to Nanjing, he must learn the laws of the violent world like them.

In that old world, he had many gentlemen, all of whom were famous in the world. In this new world, his first teacher was the unknown Liu Li, although he never knew the reason why Liu Li fought to the death, but he knew that if he gave himself to King Yan, Liu was afraid that he would be unlucky. He is the only card in Liu Li's hand, he can only desperately protect himself, and his own life is the only hope for the Liu clan to live.

The first rule that Chongwen learned from Liu Li is that if you want to do something, you must put all your courage and brainpower into it, move forward, regardless of life and death, isn't this the essence of these heroes such as Emperor Gao and King Yan?

Men should be like Liu Li, Chongwen secretly admired this soldier who died in battle without escaping from Dakang with them.

Now that Liu Li is dead, Lin Yanghao, Li Qiqian and Catfish Boy came to the courtyard with wooden shovels and began to dig Liu Li's grave.

In this ferocious world, the fugitives have no honor, no name, and no matter how big the heroes are, they can only be quietly buried in the deserted village. Only the love remains in the hearts of friends, which may be more real and older than the history books in the elegant world, and the legend of the heroes of the East China Sea is far before the production of words.

At dawn, everyone buried Liu Li. The coffin is a reed mat, the funeral is a saber, the filial piety is only a white scarf on Liu Guan's head, and the funeral is only a few relatives and friends. This small village by the canal will never know that there is a guard commander here, the Duke of Dakang Quguo.

30 years ago, the most experienced chief of Liu's fleet, a great pirate across the East China Sea, he also had a nickname that terrified the entire East China Sea: Chief Bing Shun. For 30 years, the chief soldier Shun has been incognito in this dilapidated village, guarding the last escape and retreat of the Liu family, from a majestic man to a dying old man.

For fear of revealing secrets, he did not marry a wife and have children in his life, and adopted a child 10 years ago to support him in his old age, which is now the catfish cub. Even if he was such a loyal person, Liu Li did not reveal the identity of Emperor Chongwen, and Emperor Chongwen learned another trick: a secret is a secret, and it has nothing to do with trust.

There was no grave, everyone gathered in front of the tomb, and the chief soldier sang softly: "Big brother, the sea is cold, come from the boat~"

Liu Guan responded gently: "Come on~"

"It's cold on the sea, come from the house~"

"Come on~"

The two chanted repeatedly, and the singing seemed to have a kind of magic, and everyone felt that the wind was gusting, and it seemed that Liu Li's soul was floating in this small courtyard. This is the soul song of the people on the sea, I don't know how many boys' souls hovered over their relatives in this song, and finally the soul returned to the sea, silently.

After the funeral was over, Liu Guan looked around at everyone and said: "In order to arrest us, King Yan set up a governor of Yingtian in Suzhou Mansion and a governor of Zhejiang in Hangzhou. Whether it is Li Yuan, the governor of Yingtian, or Zhang Fu, the governor of Zhejiang, they are not idle people, although Ah Shun has been prepared, but he must also be cautious.

If we take the canal and go straight down to Hangzhou, which is more than 600 miles long and has more than 30 sluices and banknotes, who can guarantee that there will be no accidents? Therefore, according to the strategy of the eldest brother before his death, we will transfer from Songlingkou in Suzhou to Wusong River, and rush to Zhenhaiwei from under Li Yuan's nose. ”

Lin Yanghao groaned and said: "The waterway of the Wusong River is also one hundred and fifty miles, and it is just as difficult. ”

Liu Guan said: "The defense of Wusongjiang is under the jurisdiction of Zhenhaiwei. ”

Lin Yanghao sighed and said, "I understand, the commander of Zhenhaiwei is Lord Liu Mingshan. ”

There was strong reinforcement on the river, and everyone's hearts were a little relieved, and Li Qiqian asked: "What should we do now that we should join our mother?"

Liu Guan said: "We have a full meal, take a bath and change clothes, and sleep first." We look like birds now, and where we look like good people, it is too dangerous to be scrutinized. ”

Chief Bingshun said: "The wine and food are ready, you eat a hot meal first, and the catfish boy is preparing hot water clothes for everyone." ”
