Chapter 226 If you never left
Early the next morning, the three girls, who had had breakfast, followed Old Man Zhang down the mountain.
Li Xiuyuan sat under the eaves of the Taoist temple, brewed a pot of tea, began to grind ink, and then copied the Te Ching.
He has to wait for the people from the Tianfeng Kingdom to come, no matter whether they are the King of Qin or the eldest grandson.
He is not afraid of being reasonable, but is more willing to accompany him if he wants to do something. Now Luoxia Mountain is the barbaric Ding'an City.
Just after midnight, a gust of fragrant wind blew past the Taoist temple intersection. Li Xiuyuan, who had lowered his head to copy scriptures, raised his head and looked at the two women who were walking towards him quietly.
"Li Xiuyuan, since you have returned to Tianfeng City, why don't you come to the palace to see me?"
The eldest grandson, who was wearing a long yellow gown, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said, "We haven't seen each other for several years, but you killed my three thousand guards of Tianfeng City with one move. How much hatred does this have?"
Pouring tea into the cup in front of him, Li Xiuyuan responded calmly: "It's better to see each other than to see each other! Speaking of the killer setting fire, where were you when the defender led three thousand soldiers to kill innocent villagers at the foot of the mountain?"
Xiaoyun, who was following the eldest grandson, became anxious, looked at Li Xiuyuan and shouted: "Li Xiuyuan, how dare you talk to the empress like this?"
Li Xiuyuan put down the wolf hair in his hand, looked at him and said with a smile: "Back in the academy, after I solved the third problem of Silver Moon Four for Tianfeng, you and I have nothing to do with each other anymore... Or do you think so?
Brought five thousand troops?"
The eldest grandson was stunned, turned around and glared at Xiaoyun, thinking that the boy in front of him is no longer the boy of yesterday, why are you still talking to him in the same tone as before?
Xiaoyun was right. She looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at the two of them and said calmly: "A general from Tianfeng King City actually protected the bandits on Qingfeng Ridge for decades and allowed them to cause trouble in nearby villages. I want to ask what do you think?"
Changsun looked at him and smiled bitterly. He picked up the tea cup in front of him and said softly: "How dare you... attack an army of three thousand? Aren't you afraid?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "I regret it very much. After I killed the bandits in Qingfeng Gang, I should have taken the opportunity to enter Tianfeng City, and here came Li Qingfeng and other masterminds behind the scenes!"
When Xiaoyun heard this, she looked at him and said angrily: "What evidence do you have that they are the mastermind behind Qingfeng Gangkan?"
Li Xiuyuan looked into his eldest grandson's eyes and said quietly: "When I came down the mountain from here, I encountered bandits from Qingfenggang who were killing people. I told myself at that time that when I came back, they would be destroyed."
After thinking for a while, she looked at Xiaoyun and said calmly: "As for the evidence, you guys go down the mountain to take a look. Yesterday, your Tianfeng City army almost massacred the village..."
After saying these words, Li Xiuyuan changed his tone, looked at his eldest grandson and asked: "Does it mean that because I have a big fist, I can enter your Tianfeng City and slaughter the city? Do you want to give it a try? I am willing to accompany you!"
As soon as Li Xiuyuan said this, Changsun finally went crazy.
She naturally understood what her men had done, because the soldiers who returned yesterday had already explained everything clearly.
Naturally, she and Xiaoyun came here not to ask Li Xiuyuan to accuse him, but just to think about how to solve this matter.
But she could tell from Li Xiuyuan's current attitude that this guy no longer paid attention to Tianfeng City. Even when she, the queen, came here, he didn't even get up to greet her.
Unknowingly, the two have come to opposite sides, and it is difficult to restore the friendship they had back then.
Fortunately, this guy has great martial arts skills and a smart mind. Back then, he faced the envoy of the Silver Moon Kingdom alone...
Thinking of this, the eldest grandson couldn't help but sigh: "If you had never left back then? What would you be like now?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly and replied: "There is no if, only cause and effect!"
Seeing her unwillingness, Li Xiuyuan continued: "The little Princess Taoyuan is on the mountain right now, and she is also one of the witnesses. Now she has gone down the mountain to appease the villagers. Do you want to kill her too?!"
"Nangong Ruyu is here. Didn't she go back to Taoyuan with her mother?" The eldest grandson was startled when he heard this. Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise this would have been a war between the two countries.
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled: "I am her master, why can't she come to me?"
Xiaoyun thought for a while, looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked: "Then I have to meet her."
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said calmly: "You can see her when you go down the mountain to the village, but you just don't want to let the villagers know that you are from Tianfeng Palace."
When Xiaoyun heard this, she immediately stopped talking. She did not dare to leave her eldest grandson here alone.
Changsun looked at Li Xiuyuan's calm appearance, frowned and asked, "Are we really going to become enemies? Aren't we going to be able to talk to each other properly in the future?"
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at her and smiled coldly: "When I left the academy, I told myself that the Shura Realm is not my future, and I can let go of all the grudges here."
"Then why don't you let us go?" Xiaoyun couldn't help but interjected and asked.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and continued: "Even though I killed the bandits in Qingfeng Gang, I didn't even think about going to the city to find the mastermind behind it, because I didn't want to antagonize you."
"It is because of my benevolence that the villagers at the foot of the mountain suffered countless casualties! Not to mention that I only killed three thousand, even if thirty thousand died in front of my eyes, I would not frown!"
Looking at the two women in front of him, Li Xiuyuan said quietly.
Changsun sighed deeply and replied helplessly: "It's just because of a mouse that ruined a pot of porridge! Forget it, let's let this matter go. I'm not here to quarrel with you. How do you want to solve this matter?"
"Everyone is dead, how to solve it? You don't need to intervene in the villages at the foot of the mountain. I will solve it myself! Please go back and tell the generals in Tianfeng King City not to cause trouble for the villagers."
"From now on, I will erect a monument at the foot of the mountain and change the small village into Shura Village!"
Li Xiuyuan was afraid that his eldest grandson would not understand, so he explained seriously: "Anyone who invades Shura Village without any reason, no matter whether he is a city or a country, I, Li Xiuyuan, swear to hunt him down to the nine heavens and ten places, and turn this city or country into a hell on earth."
!”
When Xiaoyun heard this, she looked at Li Xiuyuan as if she were a stranger, and said in a daze, "How could you do this?"
The eldest grandson also looked at him and said, "The karma of killing is too heavy. Is there a way to achieve peace?"
"What does Tianhe have to do with me?" Li Xiuyuan pointed at the sky above his head and smiled: "Do you know how long it took me to kill these three thousand troops yesterday? Less than half an hour! It threatened me with thunder, so I asked it to wait.
I’ll wait until I burn these corpses!”
"What happened in the end? It had to watch me burn all the corpses all over the mountains and fields before it dared to rain heavily to wash away the smell of blood all over the mountains and fields for me!"
Changsun and Xiaoyun watched Li Xiuyuan point his finger at the sky and nonchalantly describe yesterday's battle. They couldn't help but tremble in their hearts. What kind of cold state of mind and powerful strength do they need to dare to fight against the sky?
"No wonder we didn't see a single corpse when we went up the mountain today. You burned them all."
The eldest grandson looked at the clear-eyed, seemingly frail young man in front of him, shook his head gently, and sighed: "That's good, it saves me sending people to collect their bodies again."
Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly and said: "People in Luoxia Mountain plant apricot trees, and 3,000 heads are used as flower fertilizer. I happened to plant a mountain of apricot trees. Tomorrow's spring must be beautiful... If I am not here, you two
You can come here for an outing and enjoy the flowers.”
"Three thousand heads are used as fertilizer, I'm afraid you are the only one in the entire Shura Realm who dares to do this, right?" Xiaoyun glared at him and said fiercely.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, took out a ring and handed it to her, smiling and saying: "Thank you, Sister Xiaoyun, for taking care of me back then. I hope you will not stop on the road of spiritual practice."
Xiaoyun was stunned and took the ring that Li Xiuwan handed her. After a while, she looked at him and replied quietly: "You have killed so many people to save this treasure. Just give it all to me. Don't you regret it?"
?”
Li Xiuyuan looked at her, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this is not a spiritual stone from the Shura Realm. No matter how many people die, it has no cause and effect to you. Money is like dung to me, and there are always people rushing to give it to me."
Li Xiuyuan thought that there were 40,000 soldiers in Ding'an City, but he had never taken a penny. Spiritual stones were only currency to him and could not be used for practice.
Looking at Li Xiuyuan quietly, Xiaoyun said nothing. These spiritual stones were enough for her to practice for decades, and she would not take them out in front of her eldest grandson.
This is the friendship between her and Li Xiuyuan and has nothing to do with the Tianfeng Kingdom.
Changsun frowned slightly as he looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "What are your plans for the future? You won't always stay in this Taoist temple and become a Taoist priest, right? Don't you think the owner of Taoyuan agrees?"
"What does she want to do with me? After I take care of the things at the foot of the mountain, I will travel around the world, and my mind will be at ease where I am. Nangong Ruyu will naturally go home, why is she following me?"
This world is both big and small, and there are still many places that Li Xiuyuan has not seen. He wants to walk more roads, see the bigger world, and understand the elusive flaming sword intention.
After all, there are only four years until the Shura Battlefield opens.
The eldest grandson did not expect that Li Xiuyuan would have such thoughts. He looked at him and asked softly: "I heard from Yu'er's mother that you are blind and your left leg is disabled, but you clearly don't have it in front of me?"
"I was indeed like this when she came, but I was cured later by chance... She didn't lie to you."
Li Xiuyuan recalled the half-year period when the woman in white stayed at Wangyue Stream. He had indeed lived a very hard and fulfilling life.
"When I was blind, I looked at the world with my heart! So I can see more clearly than you. As for the guy who hurt my leg back then, it's fine if I don't meet him, otherwise I will make a serious calculation with him.
Accounting."
Even the current Jun Wuyou, in Li Xiuyuan's eyes, is just a slightly more powerful opponent than Qin Qianxu, and is not worthy of chasing him thousands of miles away.
What he wants now is time and understanding, not endless hatred.
"Long time no see, come and have a drink with me." After Changsun finished speaking, he glanced at Xiaoyun.
Xiaoyun quickly took out the food and wine she brought and put them on the table. Li Xiuyuan also put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table.
When Xiaoyun put out the food and drinks and was about to pat away the wine jar that she brought with her, Li Juyuan said softly: "I'll treat you two to a drink." After saying that, he took a jar of wine and patted it away gently.
As the faint aroma of wine spread in the cup, Changsun couldn't help but ask: "What kind of wine is this and where did you buy it?"
"This is black bean wine. I brewed it in the academy last spring. It can be considered an aged wine."
Changsun picked it up and tasted it gently, then said to Xiaoyun: "You want to try it too and see how it tastes?"
Xiaoyun looked at Li Xiuyuan, straightened the cup and took a sip. Then she covered her small mouth and said, "Do you have any more? Give me two bottles. I'll go back and drink slowly."
Seemingly knowing that Changsun was embarrassed to speak to Li Xiudi, Xiaoyun opened her mouth shamelessly. She thought that she had given all the precious spiritual stones to herself, so she wouldn't be stingy with these bars?
Li Xiuyuan said: "Okay, just two jars, I don't have much left."
Xiaoyun laughed when she heard this and took another sip from the cup: "This wine is good? When will you teach me how to brew it?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said seriously: "In the next few years, I'm afraid I won't have the heart to make wine... Actually, I don't like drinking very much."
The eldest grandson was stunned, looked at him and asked: "If you don't like it, why do you want to brew it?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Because Master likes to drink."
After saying this, Li Xiuyuan took two jars of wine and put them on the table. He looked at Xiaoyun and said, "Practice is not easy, so cherish it."
After drinking half a jar of wine and finishing all the food on the table, it was already half way through.
The eldest grandson stood up and looked at Li Xiuyuan and said: "I will tell Qian Shan... When you are free in the future, come and stay in the imperial city for a few days, and I will keep the courtyard for you."
After saying that, he turned around and left, the mountain breeze blew his way, and his yellow shirt gradually fluttered.
