Looking at the list, Cui Keli was silent for a long time, stood up after half a ring, and ordered: "Come with me to Jimingfang to see Liu Lao." ”
When Cui Keli and a group of officials came to the chicken song fang, it was already dusk. The last rays of the sunset are disappearing from the rooftops, and the streets and alleys are crowded with pedestrians, all of whom have been busy all day and are in a hurry to get home. The battle of Cui Keli and others attracted many people to look sideways.
Liu Lao lives in a dilapidated small courtyard at the end of the street, he is over fifty years old, and he is hunched over at the moment, struggling to carry a bucket of water into the door. The threshold is quite high, the light is already very dim, Liu Lao didn't pay attention to the foot of the foot, hooked the threshold, his body was unstable, and he was about to fall down, so frightened that Liu Lao exclaimed.
A woman nearby who saw this scene had already covered her mouth in shock, Liu Lao's body bones were not very good, and now he fell down with a bucket of water, and he would definitely be injured. Not to mention whether he has the money to hire a doctor, this fall is likely to cost him most of his life.
However, Liu Lao did not fall to the ground, his arm was held, and even the bucket that had poured out a part of the water was firmly grasped in his hand. Liu Lao turned his head in astonishment, and saw a middle-aged man in an official robe standing beside him. It was the other party who held him up.
The woman who saw this scene was stunned, and the position where she was standing had a good view, but she didn't see clearly at all how the middle-aged official made a move. It seemed that just a phantom flashed over, and Liu Lao stabilized his figure.
"Are you alright?" said Trekley, setting the bucket down steadily, and asked the stunned old man with concern.
The old man instinctively felt frightened when he saw Cui Keli in an official robe, but then he relaxed. Because now that the Pinglu officials are in charge of the Qing Dynasty, the officials will not oppress the people, so there is no need to be afraid.
Cui Keli helped Liu Lao into the door, and the little officials who followed him put the condolence wine and meat on the table. The furnishings in the room are very simple, there are only tables, chairs and beds, and there is basically no place except for the stove room. Cui Keli set up the wine and meat, asked Liu Lao to sit down, and gossiped with him while eating meat and drinking wine with him.
Liu Lao was very restrained and stunned at first, and he didn't know why Cui Keli was like this. After drinking a few glasses of wine, Liu Lao gradually let go, anyway, he was a bad old man, and there was nothing to guard against other officials.
At first, Cui Keli asked Liu Lao to answer, and later after the topic was introduced to Liu Lao's son, Liu Lao said more, and took the initiative to talk to Cui Keli about his son's filial piety.
After drinking a full glass of wine, Liu Lao smacked his mouth: "The old man's three eldest sons, since childhood, have no mother, that year the war was in chaos, the family did not eat, her mother in order to save food for the three children, she didn't eat for several days, only rice soup, and then fell ill, and her body was too weak, so she didn't survive." The three children are all honest children, and they are sensible when they are young, and when they have a little strength, I have never done any work at home. However, a few years ago, the people of Pinglu had a hard time, and they got up early and greedy for darkness just to make ends meet, but in the past few years, King An has come, and the situation has improved. ”
"The three eldest sons have all joined the army, and the military salary has basically been sent back to me, so that I can retire at home and not have to work. The old man knows that they are filial, but how can they do it, the three eldest sons have not yet married, especially the eldest child, who has passed the age of establishment, and now that his life has improved, he has to save his wife...... This time, they followed His Royal Highness King An on the expedition, to be loyal to the country, and the three eldest sons said before leaving, let me not worry, they will come back with military merits and glorify the lintel......"
Trekley listened quietly, like an old friend.
After two full hours, when the wine had been drunk and the meat had been eaten, and the old man was drunk, Trekley stood up, sighed, and with a look of unbearable and painful look in his eyes, waved his hand, and asked the little official to bring the bereavement shirt.
Cui Keli straightened his clothes and bowed to Liu Lao solemnly: "Ling Lang is loyal to the country, fighting on the battlefield, and the younger generation has thanked the old man for King An......"
Liu Laoyi grabbed Cui Keli's hand and asked him not to continue, Cui Keli looked up in shock, but found that Liu Lao was already in tears, "When Changshi invited the old man to drink, the old man felt it, Changshi didn't need to say much......"
Cui Keli was stunned, and his heart suddenly ached. Liu Lao Fang just said so much about his son, presumably because he felt something, so he was reluctant to miss it, and wanted more people to know about their well.
Cui Keli took the pension from the little official and solemnly handed it to Liu Lao: "This is a pension in the army...... Saburo was only injured and will come back when healed. According to the military law of Pinglu, Liu Lao is now an official from Jiupin, and someone will send Yu Lu over every month. After Saburo returns, he can be transferred to the local yamen to serve......"
Liu Lao trembled and took the pension, wiped his tears, and leaned down to bow: "Hello Xie An, ...... Wang"
Cui Keli hurriedly helped Liu Lao up.
Leaving the Chicken Song Workshop, Cui Keli glanced up at the moonlight and sighed. I can't tell if it's a bitter feeling, or if it's another feeling. In the chaotic world, there are always many joys and sorrows, but Cui Keli is extremely sure that Pinglu is worth it because of Li Ye.
If Cui Keli has the ability to hope for qi, he will find that with the triumph of the army this time, the bereavement pensions are in place, and the meritorious ones return to their hometowns.
Hua Bu Zhu Mountain.
In the main hall, the Holy Son was still sitting on the throne, and there was still no expression on his handsome and bevelous face. The wisps of black qi that lingered around him were loaded and floated according to a specific method.
On the ground in the center of the main hall, wisps of red air suddenly appeared, converging into a whirlpool, and in the vision of the Holy Son, a nine-tailed demon fox with a fiery red body slowly crawled out of the ground. The red fox stepped on the stairs of red qi and came to him, conjuring up a stunning woman with red hair and red clothes.
"The Nine-Tails have seen the Holy Son. The red-haired woman bowed down in front of the Holy Son, her voice soft and melodious, with a bone-eroding charm. As she spoke, she crawled towards the Son with all four hands, one hand running down the Son's leg and caressing his chest.
The Holy Son glanced at her faintly, and his voice was as cold as ever: "You are too close. ”
The nine-tailed demon fox had autumn waves in his eyes, and chuckled: "The slave family feels that it is not close enough." At this moment, she even climbed her own body on the Holy Son.
The Holy Son didn't speak, but looked at the nine-tailed demon fox's gaze even colder. I didn't see any movement from him, and suddenly the black qi all over his body exploded, and the nine-tailed demon fox with a delicate body flew out with a squeak.
Nine-tails flipped back in mid-air and landed steadily, not only was there no anger on her face, but her eyes were brighter when she looked at the Holy Son, and her flattery was even greater: "The Holy Son's cultivation has improved again, but this time the slave family has been seriously injured, and the slave family's heart is about to break!"
The Holy Son's posture did not change, which meant that he did not look at the Nine-Tails, and there was still no emotion in his voice: "If there is a next time, you will not have the opportunity to say such things again." ”
In the face of such merciless threats and warnings, the Nine-Tails did not have any fear, but stretched out his small red tongue, licked his fiery lips, and said almost with a silky look: "The slave family is looking forward to it, if the Holy Son can make the slave family feel pain, the slave family must not mind screaming louder." ”
The Holy Son finally changed his posture and began to look at the Nine-Tails: "Say, what are you going to do?"
After receiving the Holy Son's attention, the Nine-Tails was satisfied, and no longer continued to tease and persecute the unpredictable Holy Son, and chuckled: "The Holy Son's right-hand men are the Demon and the Dragon Maiden, but they were all killed by that Li Ye, what will the Holy Son do next?"
The Holy Son looked at the Nine-Tails playfully: "What do you think I should do?"
Nine-tails smiled and walked towards the Holy Son, only three steps, the Holy Son's eyes suddenly cold, Nine Tails only felt that there was a mountain on his body, and this step could no longer fall, so he had to retract it. However, she obviously didn't know what embarrassment was, and continued: "With the cultivation of the Holy Son, it is just easy to kill that Li Ye, why don't you do that this time?
The Holy Son said lightly: "Use the Yin God True Person of my Demon Clan to deal with a real person in the mortal Spirit Pool, and also call it to death?"
Nine-tails blinked and said, "But the Holy Son himself didn't make a move." If the Son doesn't make a move, why should he appear this time?"
The Holy Son glanced at the Nine-Tails deeply, and those deep eyes seemed to have turned into a whirlpool. Nine-Tails' eyes touched those eyes, and she suddenly felt the power of cultivation all over her body, like a flood of floods, surging away from her, which made her face pale.
The Holy Son slowly retracted his gaze: "If you are interested in this Li Ye, you might as well solve this trouble for me." You also know that when I came back, I didn't bring many people, and the Yin God real person was a demon and a dragon girl. If you, a Yang God real person, are willing to make a move, you must be able to deal with Li Ye and be able to catch him. ”
Nine-tails' eyes were suddenly full of light, and he did not hide his joy when he heard this, and couldn't wait to ask for credit and reward in advance: "If the slave family has done this for the Holy Son, how will the Holy Son repay the slave family?"
When she said this, her beautiful eyes were full of spring.
The Holy Son seemed to be smiling, his eyes were inexplicable, and he was not without a look of ridicule: "If you do it, I can promise you a request." ”
"What kind of request is enough?" Nine-Tails' eyes were as bright as stars, full of excitement and eagerness.
The corners of the Holy Son's mouth moved slightly, outlining a profound arc: "Of course, as long as I can do it." ”
Nine-tails was afraid that the Holy Son would regret it, so he hurriedly agreed. She knew that the Son was a man of his word, and she would not regret the promises she had made. Moreover, in the demon clan, there are very few things that break their promises, and she can't wait to complete this task that is not difficult at all in the eyes of the Nine-Tails, but has infinite benefits.
After the Nine-Tails turned into a red cloud and disappeared, the Son's gaze became playful. It's like getting ready to see a good show, or a joke. He stood up slowly, and the wide and gorgeous black robe on his body poured down like a black waterfall.
The Holy Son walked out of the main hall, stood at the door with his hands in his hands, looked at the sky thoughtfully, and after half a sound, he showed a smile that turned all beings upside down: "It's time to go and see the Seven Great Sages." I wonder if he will be happy to see me, the son of an old man?"
After Li Ye killed the dragon girl, he got the opponent's ice crystal blue sword. When the long sword was in his hands, Li Ye felt an extremely majestic force. With his knowledge, he immediately judged that the Ice Crystal Blue Sword was of a higher grade than his Lu Gu Sword.
Lu Gujian is the sword of the Son of Heaven, and has the qualification to overlook the world's magic weapon, and the sword level of the dragon girl is higher than that of Lu Gujian, which means that it is no longer a mortal magic weapon, but a magic weapon refined by the power of the immortal realm.
However, Li Ye didn't plan to use the ice crystal blue sword by himself, Lu Gujian and the dragon qi were combined, and the power of the two was gained, and Su Emei's own sword was also very good, so he planned to keep this sword and give it to Wu You in the future. The other party's Asking Immortal Sword has been destroyed, and it is the time when there is a shortage of weapons.
After the fall of the dragon girl, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals dived into Jishui one after another, trying to escape, Li Ye of course would not let them succeed, in order to completely eliminate the Jishui demon trouble, he and Su Emei chased into the river one after another. Li Ye's practice of avoiding water, although he can't deal with the real human realm underwater, but the shrimp soldiers are all in the Qi refining period, the crab generals are also seriously injured, and Su Emei helps him, so there is no problem.
After an hour of pursuit, the shrimp soldiers and crabs were all solved by Li Ye and Su Emei, and the two came out of the water and returned to the building boat, the Changhe Gang fleet had already restored order under the command of Liu Zhiyan.
Seeing Li Ye and Su Emei coming back, Liu Zhiyan, Liu Shibo and others hurriedly greeted them with joyful faces.
This time out to fight the water demon, although the Changhe Gang also had casualties, but compared to the results of the complete pacification of the water demon, it can be ignored.
Especially Li Ye and Su Emei, they successively killed a Yin God True Person and a Lingchi Real Man, which was a record that they didn't dare to think of before, because at this time, they were full of admiration and awe for Li Ye and Su Emei.
"Pack up and keep sailing. Li Ye said to Liu Zhiyan, this time the Changhe Gang re-launched the water in order to pacify the demon, and now that the demon plague has been pacified, it is natural to inform all parties and announce the resumption of navigation in Jishui.
Compared with the government posting notices, the Changhe Gang sailed directly once, which is undoubtedly more convincing.
Liu Zhiyan happily accepted the order, but Li Ye and Su Emei would not follow the Changhe Gang to continue sailing, and the demon trouble in Jishui was solved, and they had to rush to the next place.
