Chapter 373: Half-Saint

"Are you all right? ”

When Li Xiuyuan returned to the mansion, he saw Zhu Yu and Wang Ping, who came to the mansion for refuge, although they were embarrassed, they left the Hou Mansion unharmed and did not die in the turmoil, but they were also smart and knew that they had taken refuge in Li Xiuyuan's ghost house.

Maybe this is the trust in Li Xiuyuan.

"Thank you Brother Li for saving your life, if there is no Brother Li today, I am afraid that this time I will be in a catastrophe. Zhu Yu thanked him gratefully.

"It's okay for you guys, Ning Caichen is out of a coma now, I'll bring him back, Niu Er, go and help him into the wing room to rest. Li Xiuyuan said.

At this time, a sturdy man walked in, answered the call and took Ning Caichen down to rest.

Wang Ping hurriedly asked at this moment: "Brother Li, what is the situation now? Is there really a rebel rebellion in the city?" ”

Li Xiuyuan said, "The situation seems to be serious, but in fact it is not, it's just that the Hou Mansion has been affected, when I come back, the city is still safe and sound, it shouldn't be a rebel rebellion, and there are many strange things about this matter, I can't judge it for a while, if you are worried, don't let go of the mansion for a few days, and then go out after things calm down." ”

"With Brother Li here, I am at ease. A scholar was also grateful.

Li Xiuyuan nodded: "In the event of a military disaster, we should help each other, and now you are all very tired when you think about it, please go back to the wing room to rest first, let me send someone to inquire about the news, and then inform you of the situation in two days." ”

"In this way, there is Brother Lao Li, if there is anything that needs our help or Brother Li's orders, don't be polite, although we can't write a letter, we can't do it, but it's okay to jointly write a letter, sue the emperor, write a pleading, or something, even if you carry out a parade of scholars, you don't hesitate to do this. ”

Wang Ping bowed his hand and said seriously.

"Yes, if it is really a troubled time, why should my generation be sorry for this. There are also scholars who are enthusiastic and say loudly.

"That's right, we have all been involved in the flood in Guo Beicheng, are you afraid that this knife and axe will not be able to add to your body?" There are also several scholars who are in line with the Tao, and some are filled with righteous indignation.

Traditional scholars, such as them, are most aware of the dangers of military disasters and turmoil.

It was the previous dynasty, prosperous and prosperous, once turbulent, but also turned into ruins, dust, and how many people were killed and injured.

Seeing this, Li Xiu calmed everyone's emotions: "You have this heart, and I deeply admire it, but now the matter is not as serious as imagined, please calm down for the time being, I will work together for a long time, if the country is really in trouble, how can we live in secret, just to be stable?"

After the scholars' emotions were calmed, he arranged for them to go to the wing room to rest.

Wait until they're gone.

The figure of Li Linfu appeared at the back of the lobby, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "If Gongzi wants to rule people with ghosts and gods, why should he spend so much energy to take care of these scholars? Although they have a warm blood, they are not suitable for the current world, and Gongzi should have discovered it, this world has become more and more chaotic, this is a sign of the decline of the country's fortunes, and even Jinling City has suffered a disaster of swords." ”

Li Xiuyuan said: "You are right, it is the decline of the country's fortunes, all the bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods are here, and all the natural and man-made disasters are also coming, who would have thought that in the mansion of the Hou Mansion, a rebellion was set off, and there were countless casualties, and even the Hou Ye Li of the Hou Mansion was implicated, but it is precisely because of this that I need people in the same way." To govern ghosts and gods, I have five ghost kings, ghosts and gods from all directions, but if you want to govern the world, you need a group of like-minded people of the same generation, although they are weak scholars, but they will definitely be able to be officials in the court in the future, so they will be my right-hand men in the future. ”

"Although they are just useless talents at the moment, but they will not be in the future, my character problem, it is impossible to flatter, to curry favor with those officials, and those corrupt officials are not worthy of working with me, what I want to do, upright, their way is bright, and they cannot tolerate the filth of flies and dogs, only if they have no blood and have their own ideas and ethics, they are worthy of my friendship, so a little care now is nothing. ”

Li Xiuyuan's expression was complicated, and he looked at the dusk outside.

"Childe is really far-sighted, and even thought of this, and the old servant admires it. Li Linfu said.

"You don't have to pat me on the back, you are the prime minister of the previous dynasty, it is impossible not to even see through this, what happened to the things I asked you to check before?" Li Xiuyuan said.

Li Linfu said: "If it is really as Gongzi guessed, Zhu Erdan and Lu Juan have something to do, and the statue of Lu Juan in the Ten Kings Hall was carried back to his home by Zhu Erdan, which is seen by a little ghost in the city, and now the Lu Juan can appear in Zhu Erdan's home at any time through the worship of the statue, but this Lu Juan is very high, and the ghost and god who investigated have not found any trace of Lu Juan's true body." ”

"What does Lu Juan have to do with the ten ghost kings of the Ten Kings Palace?" Li Xiuyuan said again.

"This old servant also asked the long-bearded ghost king, and the long-bearded ghost king said that Lu Juan was the lord of the Ten Kings Palace, and the ten ghost kings were his subordinates, in the underworld, Lu Juan had served Yama Luojun, and then Yama Luojun's term of office was up, and reincarnation went, Lu Juan took the opportunity to come to the yang world, relying on the ten ghost kings under his command to control the cycle of life and death in the underworld, but Lu Juan disappeared for a while ago, and the long-bearded ghost king said that it may be because the heavenly palace sent all the ghosts and gods away. ”

Li Linfu told Lu Juan about the matter in 1510.

"What a Lu judge, there is such a background. Li Xiuyuan was a little surprised: "No wonder this person has a book of life and death in his hand, a judge's pen, it turns out that he is a judge next to the real Yama in the underworld, in this way, it is not impossible for him to master the ten ghost kings." ”

After serving Yama in the underworld for so many years, how could he not have a little power of his own?

Li Linfu said: "On that day, the ten ghost kings visited the son, arranged the killing game, and wanted to harm the son, which may not be without this Lu Judgment secretly instigating, after all, he is the master of the Ten Kings Palace, he let the ten ghost kings take the lead, both the heart of harm and the heart of temptation, now the Ten Kings Hall exists in name only, the ten ghost kings died five, and the remaining five were subdued by the son, this Lu Judge is afraid that he is coming for this matter, maybe Zhu Erdan is the pawn of Lu Judgment." ”

"It makes sense, compared to the methods of ghosts and gods, fighting methods, this Lu Ju can't be my opponent, so he instigated mortals to deal with me. Li Xiuyuan nodded: "The layout of ghosts and gods is not something that can be seen in one or two days, they have time, so they can often wait patiently for a few years, more than ten years, or even twenty or thirty years." ”

For example, the old demon of Montenegro, who turned into a black tiger and wanted to eat himself, did not succeed and instigated the tree demon grandmother to deal with him, but if he didn't succeed, he turned into a thief Shi Hu, and then assassinated, and if he didn't succeed, he didn't know what to plan.

One plan after another, once successful, Li Xiuyuan will die in his hands.

"What Childe said is reasonable, there is a half-saint who has been harmed by the layout of ghosts and gods today, so that he can't become a saint, and can only barely become a half-saint. Li Linfu said.

"There is still a half-saint in the next dynasty?" Li Xiuyuan paused.

Li Linfu wondered, "Don't you know? A hundred years ago, there was a scholar who made great achievements in meritorious service, virtue, and speech, and was about to become holy, but he was calculated by ghosts and gods, and his virtue was corrupted, and as a result, his success was lost, but the old servant also knew it by listening to the gossip of a ghost in the past, after all, the old servant had never been out of Jinling City, and what he knew was not very clear. ”

"That's a shame. Li Xiuyuan sighed.

He knows that there is a kind of acquired saint in this world, this kind of person is not magical, but he has profound merits, but he can rely on meritorious service, virtue, and speech, and finally become holy after the merit is fulfilled and he dies.

It is not easy to reach the point of being a half-saint, let alone almost becoming a saint.

It's just that....... Is there really no room for a saint to be born in this world?

Even people who are going to make meritorious contributions, establish virtues, and make promises to become saints can murder them, and this ghost and god are too powerful.

But after thinking about it carefully, Li Xiuyuan smiled bitterly in his heart.

Not to mention a half-saint, doesn't he have ghosts and gods who want to murder him with the life of a natural saint? And he still has a seven-trick exquisite heart, as well as a sword to cut immortals, and at this time all the nemesis of demons and monsters are on him, but so what?

It's not like I'm close to being victimized.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now, although this Lu Juan has the possibility of harming me, and also has the intention of using Zhu Erdan to plot against me, but I also have to go but I can do it, I can't judge the good and evil of a ghost god by guessing, this is unnecessary, if he really has evil intentions, I will definitely not let him go." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Childe is very right. Li Linfu said very respectfully.

Only by adhering to such virtues can we have a clear conscience.

has no shame in his heart, and naturally even ghosts and gods must be respected.

"Summoning the five ghost kings, it's not a way to let them stay in the house and not go out during this time, let them go with me for a while, since they used to be under Lu Ju's command, let them meet with Lu Juan tonight, so as to solve the concerns of these ghost kings." Li Xiu said from afar.

No wonder the ghost kings are willing to hide here and not go out, the feeling is that they already know that Lu Ju is coming, and they are afraid of looking for trouble, so they have a bit of refuge.

"Big young master, it's better to let the little one follow. At this time, at a dim foot in the lobby, a man in armor suddenly appeared faintly and gave it up.

Li Xiuyuan glanced at it and said: "Tieshan, your Taoism is still very low, if you go out with me, you will encounter danger, just stay in the mansion, the peace of the mansion is also very important, and you need to protect it." ”

"Yes, young master. Iron Mountain retreated, disappearing into the wall.

Looking at the sky outside, it was already dark.

As soon as it was dark, he set out.

It is necessary not only to determine whether the judge is friend or foe, but also to take the judge's pen and the book of life and death in the hand of the judge of Lu.

Whether the book of life and death can be obtained is related to whether the concept of co-governance of others and gods can be implemented.

But at this moment.

The aftermath of the turmoil in the Hou Mansion had just subsided, and Li Liangjin left the mansion with the guards and the talented Zhu Erdan.
