In the evening, in the sound of flying birds, Chen Chen woke up, he felt that his body was filled with an inexhaustible strength, when he opened his eyes, he saw the old drunkard who was hanging his son, and there was a red-robed half-faced man, the man sat cross-legged at the opposite end of the old drunkard, saw Chen Chen wake up, nodded at Chen Chen, and then got up to leave.

In addition, the Xuankong monk, who was not far away from him, also woke up not long after, and his eyes were even more compassionate, and he muttered to himself: "I thought that my realm was one point higher than Li Gongyang, but it turned out that he was not inferior to me or even surpassed." Chen Chen, who was confused, stood up and called the old drunkard in the distance, and then the old drunkard stepped forward with a smile, but did not walk directly in the direction of Chen Chen, but walked next to the Xuankong monk and slapped him on the shoulder.

"Thinking about doing so much, not to mention anything else, you are also the only one in history who has entered the sainthood with the Buddha's Tao meditation and comprehension of the sage book, the Buddha and Confucianism are integrated, you are the first person, why do you have to compare with that Li Ram. The words made Xuankong deafening, "Yes, what Li Gongyang thinks about is that the whole world will be completely peaceful first, and the world will become the world first, and then talk about Qingming, I am different from him after all." ”

"Then what are your plans to continue copying and reading books in the pagoda?" The old drunkard joked a little, and Chen Chen on the side also followed, and subconsciously said: "It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read ten thousand books." Hearing this, a light flashed in the old drunkard's heart, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Chen Chen: "Are you awake?"

"No matter how long the heart has been sealed, as long as there is a wiping heart, the heart mirror is transparent, and it can naturally wake up at any time, and I can wake up, thanks to Master Xuankong. Chen Chen made a bow, his eyes were full of wisdom, but there was still a trace of innocence in that wisdom.

Xuankong helped Chen Chen up and answered the old drunkard's question: "I have been sitting in the pagoda, I can only be like a prisoner, since Li Gongyang wants to set the world first and then Qingming, then I will help him fulfill the last wish of the people of the Qingming world, this is also what I want to do, most people in the world, just like this, Chen Gongzi, there is still some fog in his heart." ”

"Since you have become a person who coexists with Confucianism and Buddha, since you have to do something worthy of this realm, Wang Qi, the things of heaven and earth, you have to clean up this mess, there is Wang Bai in the front, you have to wait for you, I am at ease, but the world always needs a preacher, Li Gongyang has no time, Guiguzi has no work, but the world has been planned in their hands, then let me be this preacher. ”

Whether it was Chen Chen or the old drunkard, there was a trace of respect in the eyes of looking at Xuankong, and the old drunkard finally asked, "When will you leave?"

"Now go and say goodbye to Wukong's seniors and leave. ”

"Don't wait for the Buddha Festival to end? once every 20 years, it's better to wait for him to finish. ”

"Don't wait, my heart is urging. Xuankong smiled a little happily on his face, and then looked at Chen Chen: "Chen Gongzi, see you in the rivers and lakes." After that, Xuankong started to leave, and the two sleeves of fresh air left behind made people feel that there was righteousness in it.

The two people left in the wind fell silent for a while, and the old drunkard broke the silence first: "Boy, let's go around at will?"

"It's fine. Chen Chen nodded, and the two walked side by side, and when they were halfway there, Chen Chen spoke again: "Chen Chen's name, I like it a lot, old fellow." ”

The old guy had three words, which was clearly the tone of the old man, and the old drunkard grinned and said: "Then you must like it, then will you be called Chen Chen or Chen Xiyu in the future?"

"In front of you, I will always be Chen Chen, and in front of the world, I will always be Chen Xiyu. The two looked at each other and laughed, Chen Chen at this time really became Chen Xiyu, and the big dream from before finally reverberated in his mind.

In the twelfth year of Tianqing, under the leadership of Chen Tang, the state of Chu defended the attack of Ye Lingtan's army, and defended in the city of Xiongzhou, refusing to retreat half a point, but after all, the Tang dragoon is the sharpest army in the world, although the Chen family army trained by Chen Tang is also the first army of the Chu State, and it is also regarded by the world as having the potential to compete with the Tang dragoon for the first place, and at that time it was the potential after all, not the fact.

If it weren't for the fact that he relied on Xiongzhou City for defense, and Ye Lingtan and he didn't have a tacit understanding that he didn't gather people above the Heavenly Realm to fight, I'm afraid there would be no Western Chu in the world where a single state was not lost. In the past, Ye Lingtan received the military order Xu Xu Tuzhi, originally the most difficult thing to fight in the world was Western Chu, this is the consensus of Zhao Yi and Li Gongyang, so they want to level the five countries first, and finally gather the whole country's troops to Kexi Chu.

But Ye Lingtan has his pride after all, Ye Lingtan, who is known as the first general of this era, sometimes attacks with fire, sometimes divides troops to encircle and send reinforcements, and sometimes takes advantage of the river flood season to attack the city, Xiongzhou City has been dilapidated under his offensive, and he is close to the last fatal blow to break through the city, and all the turning points are just at that time.

Although Chen Xiyu is a child, but in addition to his appearance, he can hardly say that this is a child from any other angle, his wisdom is high, he can sit with Prime Minister Zhou Zhuang and discuss, his patriotism can make him forget to sleep and eat to think about how to win the battle and how to govern the country, and the root of all this is his father Chen Tang.

As the pillar of Western Chu, he took over the general of soldiers and horses after Wang Qi stepped down, but what followed was the battle against Tang that made the people of the world unhappy, his body and mind were very tired in that battle, and he fell ill on the front line many times, and the turning point came, because it was Chen Xiyu.

At that time, Li Gongyang and Xuanyuan Ce, more specifically, the gambling contract between the celestial and the man, was like this.

Heaven wants to fight for the luck of the world, the world wants to be completely independent, become a real world, at that time the Southern Tang Dynasty was enough to eat the other six countries in one go, but will it break the stomach, it is hard to say, but if the world is unified, the luck is condensed, and the world may be truly unified into a world that can be opposed to the sky.

So the heavenly people were naturally a little flustered, and so was Li Gongyang, at that time, there were many natural and man-made disasters in the Southern Tang Dynasty, even if the six countries were leveled, it was possible that the king was in civil strife, so he took the initiative to bet with the heavenly people, and the two of them tacitly chose not to bet on that possibility, because after the Southern Tang Dynasty unified the world, if the world was unified, there would be no chance in the sky, and in the same way, if the Southern Tang Dynasty civil strife arose, it would be the end of the real strong crossbow, and it would be a collapse, and the price of failure would be too great for both sides, so they started another gamble.

Zhao Chunqiu was used by Li Gongyang to undertake the national fortune of the Southern Tang Dynasty in a certain way, and was brought to the front of the heavenly people, as the first son of the tourist, he was secretly handed down by the heavenly people, and became the two human beings of good and evil in a certain way, the good one was Zhao Qiu, and became the son of the world, and the evil one was named Zhao Chun, and was used to corrupt the Southern Tang Dynasty, which was the sinister intention of the heavenly people.

As Li Gongyang judged, in the eyes of the heavenly people, the luck of the world was clearly divided between Western Chu and Southern Tang, so Chen Xiyu, who had some of Murong Xue's residual luck on his body, became the son of the world in Western Chu.

As for why the person who led them to the world is an old drunkard, naturally there is Li Gongyang's calculation in it, Xuanyuan Ce and the old drunkard are close friends, but he hurt the old drunkard, this will become an indelible obsession in his heart, obsession does not go, even if the heavenly man is in his body, there will be a demon obstacle in his heart, so he concluded that the choice of the heavenly man must be the old drunkard, in the eyes of Li Gongyang, in addition to the hidden Wang Bai, the biggest variable is the old drunkard, and the monk in the Temple of Dawn who did not dare to go out of the temple, so under all kinds of calculations, there are ten years of human life, and there is also the life of the six countries。

The so-called traveler in the world, Li Gongyang wants Zhao Qiu to understand the many hardships in this world and become a better monarch, and there are countless luck in the world, if it can be contaminated with the slightest, it will be excellent.

And Chen Xiyu is a pawn of the heavenly people, he thinks that Chen Xiyu, who is contaminated with the luck of the world, can become an opponent in the game with the future Zhao Chunqiu, and in front of the family and country, he will definitely stand up.

Both of them have been covered up for ten years, but ten years later, Zhao Chunqiu woke up and ascended the throne, but Chen Xiyu was still in a state of confusion, because the old drunkard didn't want him to wake up, this kind of unwillingness was unbearable, because he understood that after waking up Chen Xiyu, there would definitely be a trade-off in his heart, and he would definitely sit in that position in Xichu to work, and what the old drunkard thought in his heart was the sentence he said to Chen Tang at that time: "The Chen family doesn't have to be full of loyalty, just have a generation." ”

As a result, after all, what I couldn't count was Xuankong's witty words for entering the sainthood, which cleared the fog that trapped Chen Xiyu, and Chen Xiyu woke up from a dream and entered the heavens.

"Old fellow, I won't do anything until you go to the Heavenly Palace, I will accompany you until you go to the Heavenly Palace. Chen Xiyu looked at the old drunkard, there was reluctance in his eyes, and in a flash, the former son was forcibly pressed in his heart, because in his eyes, that son could be very happy, but he couldn't afford the burden that was about to come to his shoulders, since it was useless, it was best to suppress it.

"Aren't you afraid that before I go to the Heavenly Palace, the world will already be in chaos?" The old drunkard's eyes were a little playful, but also a little bitter, for so many years, because of Murong Xue's residual luck, this little drunkard really became the love in his heart, he really regarded him as his own heir, he felt sorry for the burden he was going to bear, but he knew that he couldn't do anything, he lived for Xichu in the first half of his life, and lived for Murong Xue in the second half of his life, this is the path he chose himself, it is also very bitter, but there is sweetness in his heart, he believes that Chen Xiyu will definitely think so, because he has been with him for a long time, then his path, let him go by himself。

"Zhao Chunqiu will definitely wait for you to ascend to the sky first, old fellow, I know him just as I understand you, not to mention, in addition to giving this face, the foreshadowing that the heavenly people made before the chaos in the world is also very good, if the Southern Tang Dynasty didn't have a Li Ram before Zhao Qiu's return to the throne, I'm afraid it would have collapsed a long time ago, and the person named Zhang Heng was also very good, forcibly tied the six countries together, and the current Six Kingdoms are probably not inferior to the current Southern Tang Dynasty. Chen Xiyu was confident, and when he spoke, he remembered the figure who used to play with him, and sighed unconsciously, but unfortunately, he sighed like this, and Zhao Chunqiu, who was sitting in the Shenglong Palace, coincided with the past, and had feelings in his heart.

The old drunkard sighed a little, the two ignorant children finally became what they are now, and he finally said: "In the last nearly a year, accompany me, after Lao Tzu ascends to the sky, he will never come back." After the old drunkard said this, he strode forward alone, Chen Xiyu consciously stopped and stopped following, but he couldn't hold back the discomfort in his heart, it was probably Chen Chen's innocence, and there were a few points of crystal light in the corners of his eyes.

He knows that the old drunkard wants him to set up rivers and lakes, because he is far away from the rivers and lakes, he used to be the one who was a child, he had traveled far away from the rivers and lakes, and longed for it, and now he has become a real person in the heavenly realm, Chen Xiyu, who has the heavenly immortals, is really a pity not to stand in the rivers and lakes and enter the court, not to mention, Chen Chen, Chen Xiyu, he already has a heart of rivers and lakes, this point, the old drunkard is indeed not mistaken.

But no, because the rivers and lakes are too far away, and the home and country are too close, he can only endure the yearning in his heart and sigh: "Most of the people in the world are miserable." He suddenly remembered the tall back he had seen when he was a child, and the gentle smiling face, and the woman who played the piano for himself.

When he thought of Tian Xin, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, he didn't know why, Tian Xin suddenly became a person of the heavenly realm, and saved his life, he couldn't help but didn't dare to think deeply, after a long sigh, Chen Xiyu already had his own decision in his heart, those things that had to be done couldn't be let go after all, but all of that would be said after the old drunkard ascended to the sky.

It's not that he doesn't persuade the old drunkard, but he now knows how to empathize, even if he is in the same situation, the old drunkard comes to persuade him not to ascend to the sky, and he will not change in the slightest, in fact, from a certain point of view, he and the old drunkard are the same kind of people, so he understands the bitterness in the heart of the old drunkard, bitter in the former young general's expedition, and later wandered the rivers and lakes for ten years in order to play with the sky, sad for the shadow that died early, and a person who has been forcibly survived in the world for so many years, because he understands, so silently, Chen Xiyu just raised his head, enjoying the portrait of the spring breeze blowing in his face, his eyes narrowed slightly, bent like a crescent moon。

With the scholarly temperament exclusive to Chen Xiyu, he became a little handsome, he enjoyed the first spring breeze in ten years, he saw the old drunkard who was far away, he knew that he needed to be quiet, so Chen Xiyu was ready to turn back, he looked forward to a good night's sleep tonight, after all, Chen Xiyu, who has been meditating and enlightening for ten years, has never felt what it feels like to spend time in his sleep, he believes that he will have a good dream tonight.

Under the moonlight, different people have their own thoughts, the shadows are stretched very long, and the people who pass by are scattered, leaving only the various personal feelings of the spring night, and the people who are immersed in the spring night are in twos and threes, or passers-by, or returnees.
