Chapter 391: Responsibility
After Zhou Long left, Mi Long said to a few loyal Lei Tribulation monks around him: "You guys should go too! Nan Chu can't bear it, and the demon clan will attack one day sooner or later." ”
A monk knelt down: "Your Majesty, let's go together! ”
Several monks knelt down one after another: "Please move, Your Majesty!"
Mi Long looked ahead, his eyes were confused: "I am the son of the Great Chu, the mountains and rivers are broken, the people are displaced, everything is my fault." ”
The head monk said: "Your Majesty, this is a disaster for the country and the people of the Demon Clan, and it has nothing to do with Your Majesty, so why should Your Majesty take all the blame on yourself." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, you better leave! You are here, the state of Chu is here, the state of Chu is here, and we will be able to fight back. Others chimed in.
Mi Long smiled: "Do you know, why did I name Zhou Xianru's child Zhou Long?"
No one answered, so he said to himself: "Zhou Long, it's just a continuation of Mi Long, from the beginning of the demon rebellion, Wu Qiutian and Nan Chu's rebellion, I knew that sooner or later there would be such a day." So Li Bai killed so many palace offerings, I didn't say a word, if Wu Qiutian can continue to be in harmony with Nan Chu, I would rather he kill a few more palace offerings.
Being able to escape from the hands of the God Emperor Valley, whose comprehensive strength is not weaker than that of Southern Chu, being able to enter the Yuelu Academy, where the legendary dean is Cangtian, and being able to turn the Heavenly Wolf Palace upside down in the Jiuli Mountain Range and retreat with his whole body, such a young man must not be a thing in the pool.
It's a pity that some short-sighted people only saw the threat to the Chu State after his rise, but they didn't see that if they became an alliance with him, it would bring endless benefits to the Chu State.
I'm sorry for the people of Dachu, and even my own daughter is sorry.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhou Xianru and Wu Qiutian were sworn brothers, I wouldn't let Zhou Xianru be the prime minister of Great Chu, if it weren't for Wu Qiutian's great importance to his brother, I wouldn't let Xue Lan marry him.
Even if I die, I will die like a man.
I am the **** of Great Chu, even if I leave here and go to the territory of the Han State, under the fence, I will no longer be the emperor of the Chu State.
Such a humiliating thing is done by others, and the king of a country will never be able to do it.
You remember, although Southern Chu is dead, the national body of Southern Chu is still there, no matter where you go, you can't lose the face of my Chu country. Whether it is the monks of the Chu State or the common people, they are all famous and good men wherever they go. ”
Speaking of this, Mi Long was very excited, and there was a yearning for life and a fear of death in his eyes. But even so, he still chose to stay and live and die with those monks who were fighting to the death against the demons.
Life is important, but there are many things in the world that are more important than life, and those things are worth guarding with their lives.
"Xue Lan, you follow along. Mi Long said.
Princess Xuelan shook her head: "Father, you are the emperor of Great Chu, I am the princess of Great Chu, if you don't leave, I can't leave." Xianru is dead, Long'er is gone, and I have nothing to worry about in my life except for you. ”
Mi Long watched the monks leave, sighed and said, "Child, don't blame your father, sometimes, the height of your father's standing is destined to be not so comprehensive. ”
Princess Xuelan stroked her hair: "I didn't blame my father, in fact, from the beginning, I already knew my father's intentions." Xianru is not stupid, but his heart is on me, so he chooses to pretend that he doesn't know anything. He knew better than anyone else that if it weren't for Wu Qiutian's eldest brother, few people would take him seriously in Nanchu. ”
"I'm royal, I'm sorry for him!" Mi Long still felt a little apologetic in his heart.
"Let's go, father, it's been so long, and there's no news coming back, and I don't know what happened to the people outside. Princess Xuelan helped Milong and walked outside.
An old man holding a three-foot Qingfeng but not exuding any aura blocked the way of the two, and all the guards left through the teleportation array, so only Mi Long and Princess Xue Lan were two lonely figures walking in the woods.
"Uncle Li, you can go too! With you, at least the people of Nanchu can live better in a foreign country. Mi Long said to the old man in front of him.
The old man is none other than Li Bai, who has not recovered from his serious injuries.
Li Bai's long sword was on the ground, and his back was a little rickety: "Your Majesty, I, Li Bai, have been with Nanchu for a long time, and now my skills have basically been lost, and even the Qingfeng Sword that has accompanied me for thousands of years no longer listens to me, I'm really tired." Finally, let the old minister accompany His Majesty on this journey!"
Mi Long smiled slightly: "It's okay, I'm already a dying person, I don't pay so much attention to it, you are an elder, don't take a bite of Your Majesty, now I am your nephew, you are my uncle." ”
For so many years, Li Bai has not been sheltered by the royal family, and the emotions between the two can not be said clearly.
If there is no gorgeous coat of the emperor, Mi Long will be desperate to call Li Bai Uncle Uncle, if there is no title in the palace, Li Bai will also beat him as much as he wanted when Mi Long was a child.
Time is like flowing water, only memories can bring them back to their memories, and what is precipitated by the flow of time is the emotion of relatives that can never be separated.
Princess Xuelan supported the two of them one by one and wanted to go out, but Li Bai stubbornly stayed where she was: "Let's go! Go to Huangquan with the righteous men of Nanchu, and the little old man will survive for a while, even if it is for the last incense of my Nanchu, do your last little effort!"
Mi Long knew what this old man was going to do, and he also knew that with the strength of him and his daughter, he would not be able to destroy the teleportation array. They can't, but Li Bai can, so Li Bai stayed to destroy the teleportation array, and the last part of the journey was impossible to accompany them to go down together.
It took about half an hour, and the two of them had already arrived at the battlefield.
A month ago, it was a place where people lived, but now it has become a battlefield.
The burnt corpses emitted the smell of roasted meat, and some of the corpses that had been eroded by the miasma began to emit an unpleasant stench, and the two smells were intertwined and disgusting.
Mi Long and Princess Selangor, who have been pampered since childhood, did not vomit, because they knew that vomiting was the greatest disrespect for those righteous men who died.
They fought for Nanchu, they died for Nanchu, and they deserve respect.
Terran monks came out of the hollows of the trees, from the moss-covered ravines, and from under the corpses of the robed brothers.
A monk who could no longer see his true face clearly, and his gray beard was half burned, saw Milong and exclaimed, "Your Majesty, why are you here?" ”
Mi Long waved his hand: "You are all the sons of Da Chu, you are all good." Rest assured, your relatives have left the Chu State, and they will be treated well in the Jiuli Mountains. ”
"Your Majesty, why didn't you leave? A middle-aged man in the crowd who was dressed in rags and could vaguely see that he was wearing the costume of Zhirutang asked.
Mi Long said: "I am the emperor of Great Chu, the country is not a country, and I will live and die with you." ”
I don't know how many people moisten their eyes because of this sentence, they practice, and they usually see a lot of emperors who only know how to escape, and there are many people in history who write about those cowardly and incompetent emperors. But saying such words from the mouth of his own emperor still moved these iron-blooded men who killed people without blinking.
Everyone knelt on one knee, and except for the few people from the Witch Sect under the leadership of Wu Xianyun, everyone else was shouting: "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." ”
Mi Long said: "Get up, all of you! Salute to me, an incompetent king, there is no need for this, I am the king of the lost country, and I am not worthy of your mouth." ”
Wu Xianyun took the lead and walked towards Milong: "Your Majesty, the attack of the demon clan has stopped temporarily, these days we are all using the ancient formation to fight the enemy, but the formation is a remnant formation, it won't last long, Your Majesty should leave first!"
Mi Long shook his head vigorously: "This world is the world of Southern Chu, I can sit in the Ming Hall in peacetime, and I can command in war, but at this time, I can't do anything about myself." Everything is my fault, so many brothers have died, I Mi Long is incompetent and cannot avoid their death, but Mi Long can die with them. ”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty doesn't want it......" The monks persuaded them when they heard that Mi Long was going to live and die with them.
Mi Long said: "I have made up my mind, if you still regard me as your majesty, then listen to me." ”
Now everyone stopped talking, they knew that what this ambitious emperor who had been on the throne since he succeeded to the throne was true. He's really lost his confidence, and he's really going to fight with them until the last minute.
"Obey my order, all the monks who were not injured left and went to the Jiuli Mountains through the teleportation array. Mi Long suddenly said loudly.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what Milong was going to do.
Mi Long explained: "There are still so many people in Nanchu, these demons can't stop it, I don't want to add more casualties in vain." With one more monk, the people of Southern Chu will have one more foothold in the Jiuli Mountains. Go and protect them, and protect those who deserve to be protected. ”
Still no one moved.
Mi Long said angrily: "It is your responsibility to protect the people, if you still think that you are the people of Dachu, listen to my orders, leave immediately, and the injured people will join me to stop the attack of the demons and buy them time to live." ”
Now someone finally moved, and those who left were intact, and none of them fished in troubled waters.
In this way, most of the thousands of people who remained left, and only the more than 2,000 people in Wumen still did not move. They are members of the witch sect, and they don't have to obey the emperor's orders, they only need to obey the orders of their masters.
Wu Xianyun said: "I don't go, and I don't plan to go, if I want to die, I will die in the hands of the demons, if I don't die, those demons will definitely pay the price." ”
Mi Long glanced at Wu Xianyun deeply and stopped talking.
