Chapter 164: Haze (Part II)
In the rainy season, which lasts up to three months.
The straws covering the roof of the house have always been bright and golden.
In the grass house, standing in the Taoist temple, the face of the stone statue of the Taoist ancestor holding the lotus canopy is carefully carved, and it has reached the lifelike eye sockets, and the two gray-blue stone surfaces are shining with two white dots like pupils.
The stone statue of Daozu stood quietly on the bluestone, with bright white dotted eyes, looking indifferently at everything under his feet.
It has been seen for more than 3,000 years.
Li Ruyun held his hands behind his back, looked up at the eyes of the stone statue, and walked to the animal skin cushion step by step.
He looked admiring and lowered his head slightly.
He put his right hand into the wide sleeve of his left hand, fumbled for a while, and then took out three long incense sticks.
He held the incense stick horizontally and bowed down to the stone statue in worship.
Bright firelight lit up from the top of the long incense, accompanied by a light smoke wafting through the air.
Li Ruyun stepped forward, inserted Changxiang into the middle of the table table, retreated to the leather cushion, and sat down cross-legged.
Liu Heng held his breath and cautiously walked to the door.
He looked at Li Ruyun, who was sitting upright on the leather cushion, his back was straight and firm like a sharp knife towering into the clouds, and after hesitating for a moment, he stood still in place.
"Come in. ”
Li Ruyun turned his head sideways, squinted his eyes and glanced behind him, Liu Heng, who was already standing in front of the door.
His tone was calm, but there was a flash of contempt in the depths of his eyes.
Hearing this, Liu Heng raised his feet expressionlessly, crossed the threshold, and walked into the Taoist temple.
Then he stopped.
"Daoist. ”
Liu Heng stood in front of the threshold and arched his hands towards Li Ruyun.
"Hmph. ”
Li Ruyun snorted, turned his head expressionlessly, and looked straight ahead with his eyes.
"I know. You're Liu Li's son, right?"
Hearing this, Liu Heng frowned slightly, and his face showed doubt.
"Tell the Taoist. ”
"Villain, exactly. ”
"Huh. ”
Hearing this, the corners of Li Ruyun's mouth turned up slightly, and he smiled lightly.
"Liu Heng, Liu Li?"
"Are you really your father's child?"
Hearing this, Liu Heng's eyes widened slightly, and the suspicion on his face became even stronger.
"Daoist. What do you mean by that?"
"Liu Li is indeed my father. ”
Hearing this, Li Ruyun stood up, raised his hands, and bowed towards the Daozu stone statue.
His tone was calm, and the smile on his face was even stronger.
"Ten years ago, Caoyun County changed hands. ”
On that day, Liu Li, who led the soldiers of Baisha County, relied on the Caoyun rebel general Peng Yong and his subordinates to deceive the four gates of the county town. Later, the Yu family, the ruler of the county at that time, and his cronies were slaughtered. ”
"At your age, you should have been eleven at that time. ”
At that time, Liu Li should have been thirty-four years old. ”
Li Ruyun turned around. Facing Liu Heng.
His eyes moved slightly, and a smile widened into his face.
His face was solemn, and he looked at Liu Heng's gaze, but it was as sharp as a knife blade.
"When Liu Li attacked Caoyun County. still did not marry a wife, and after the fall of Caoyun County, Liu Li married Peng Yong's sister. Peng Wan'er, who had just turned nineteen at the time. ”
But also after the capture of Caoyun County, before Liu Li was unmarried, there was suddenly an eleven-year-old child by his side. ”
Moreover, it was the day before Liu Li's wedding. ”
Liu Li suddenly killed the killer and killed all the generals of Baisha County. ”
Li Ruyun raised his right hand and pointed his index finger at Liu Heng, whose face was already pale.
"I watched Liu Li lead the troops, and he became a pawn to a general, but not by killing and suppression, but by strategy and courage. ”
"The battle of Caoyun County, why is it so unusual?"
"He has a heavy army in his hand, and he has the trust of the county lord of Baisha County, even if he has a different heart, why did he only kill all the generals of Baisha County, but left Peng Yong and a group of generals?"
"What is it for, or for whom?"
Li Ruyun gathered Gangyuan in his throat and shouted: "I'll ask you!"
"When Liu Li led his troops to attack Caoyun County, where were you?!!"
"Peng Wan'er is so young, how can she be your mother!?"
"At the age of twenty-three, Liu Li is just a gatekeeper of Baisha County, since he already has descendants in Caoyun County, and for eleven years, he can let others know without knowing it!?"
Putting away the vitality in his throat, Li Ruyun looked at Liu Heng, who was covered with cold sweat on his forehead and trembling all over his body, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
He chuckled again, his indifferent gaze just like the two points of white light in the eyes of the stone statue that had stood for more than three thousand years behind him.
His voice gradually slowed down, but deliberately slowed down.
"You, the wild seed that popped up there?"
"Are you sure you've been recognizing thieves as your father for the past ten years?"
"Poof!"
Liu Heng's legs were weak and he fell to the ground.
His chest heaved violently, and he opened his mouth to gasp for breath.
He hunched up, sweating all over.
"Ahh
Liu Heng suddenly felt a splitting headache, immediately picked up his head, screamed, curled up and rolled on the ground.
On his forehead, where his eyebrows meet, a fire-like pattern lit up.
The red fire patterns seemed to be real and virtual, but in an instant, they crawled all over Liu Heng's face distorted by pain.
Li Ruyun immediately took a few steps forward and rushed to Liu Heng's side.
He looked down at the fire patterns on Liu Heng's face, his face was slightly different, and then he realized.
Yuan Feng?
I see.
Looking at Liu Heng, who was screaming in pain and shrinking his body and rolling on the ground, Li Ruyun suddenly put his hands behind his back.
With excitement on his face, he opened his mouth and whispered to himself.
"It's getting more and more interesting. ”
Li Ruyun turned around, walked slowly to the cushion, and sat cross-legged.
Liu Heng rolled on the ground for sixteen minutes before he finally fainted.
When Liu Heng woke up and got up from the ground, it was already dark.
After walking into the grass house, Liu Heng, who stood up, had no impression of everything.
Ningchuan, at the board wall.
One sat on a wallpile that had soaked up the rainwater and swelled like a mushroom hat, looking at the wasteland shrouded in the darkness of the night.
"They drove our scouts, but they were stationed a hundred miles away. ”
Gathering the vitality accumulated in his eyes, Yougen pursed his mouth and shook his head helplessly.
"Those guys are all hiding in the depths of the military village, and I can't find out day or night. ”
"I don't know who it is, I don't know how many people came. ”
"I don't even know if there are any cultivators coming. ”
"Alas~!"
One let out a long sigh and turned his head to look behind him.
Sensing Yougen's gaze, he was already standing straight and peeled off his feathers, and subconsciously straightened his chest.
"I see that the enemy's camp is completely equipped and close to the stream, it doesn't look like a temporary construction, it should have been some time. ”
"These days, apart from driving out our scouts, have the coalition forces done nothing else?"
Hearing this, Peel Feather took two steps forward and clenched his fists towards Yougen.
"Chief. ”
"According to the report of our guards, our scouts only encountered the enemy cavalry yesterday, and there was nothing unusual in the past. ”
Hearing this, Yougen frowned slightly.
He looked back at the endless night, his eyes shining.
"What are these guys trying to do?" (To be continued......)
