Ye Xiaochuan and Yun Qiyou heard all the words of these dandies, word for word.
Both of them understood.
At this moment of national calamity, the dignitaries in China are not only trying to make money for the country, but also looking for a way out for themselves, preparing to take their families, money, and boats to Yizhou Island to escape this catastrophe.
Ye Xiaochuan felt angry and sad at the same time.
As a noble and a person in power, when danger comes, you should stand up and protect the people.
But these people only want to protect themselves.
If the people in the world are so selfish and passive in response to the war, what will happen to the catastrophe?
When Ye Xiaochuan was ashamed and angry, Yun Qiyou's voice came softly.
He said: "Is this the mortal you risk your life to protect?"
Ye Xiaochuan snorted: "There are only a few scum like this."
Yun Qiyou said: "When you went to Longmen in Qiming Mountain, you once said something like this: A warrior is a brave man, a general is on the edge of a sword, a handsome man, his sleeves are full of blood, and a king is the glory of a sharp blade.
Soldiers only follow orders. When their commander is afraid of fighting, the morale of the army will be weakened.
These few scholars are nothing, but they are a microcosm.
The power of these people's families is huge, and can even affect the entire catastrophic battle situation..." Ye Xiaochuan looked back at the scholars who were taking one step and resting three steps on the stairs behind him.
He said coldly: "Don't worry, it's okay if I don't know about this. Now that I know, they can't succeed.
The most feared thing when facing a catastrophe is a way out. Once a person has a way out in his mind, the world will be defeated.
I was worried that I had no money to spend, and these people brought it to me. How could I not accept it?"
Yun Qiyou said: "What are you going to do?
There are relatives of the imperial court behind this, so it’s not easy to mess with them.”
Ye Xiaochuan smiled and said: "I don't even care about His Majesty the Emperor, let alone several princes.
The treasure island Yizhou has always been controlled by the Xiaoyao sect of the South China Sea. If they want to take refuge in Yizhou, they must pass the Xiaoyao sect, otherwise none of their ships will be able to reach the shore.
I will ask Senior Tian Chenzi for help to seize this batch of supplies, and then ask Tian Chenzi to issue a decree not allowing any Chinese people to go to Yizhou. Anyone who violates this will be killed.
I just want to block these people’s escape route.”
In the past, Ye Xiaochuan might have turned a blind eye.
But these people went too far. Tens of millions of soldiers were fighting bloody battles on the front lines. Fortunately, they were thinking of how to escape from the rear.
This kind of thing must be stopped with thunderous means, otherwise when the powerful people all run away, the people's hearts will be completely dispersed.
On the mountainside in front of Ten Thousand Buddhas Peak, there is a cave in which there are three thousand sculptures of human beings. It is said that each person can find a sculpture that is very similar to his own appearance among the three thousand human beings.
Ye Xiaochuan came here more than ten years ago.
Yun Qiyou also led him here today.
Standing in front of the Three Thousand Living Beings Grotto, Ye Xiaochuan stood blankly for a long time.
Said: "You called me out just to come here, right?"
Yun Qiyou said: "Yes."
Ye Xiaochuan looked at her and said, "You...your memory has recovered?"
Yun Qiyou shook his head and said: "I only remembered some scattered fragments, and a small part of the memory is here."
Ye Xiaochuan frowned.
Yun Qiyou said: "My memory of this place is very vague. I only know that we have been here before, and it seems that this place is still very important to us.
I want to see what the memory I lost is."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "Senior Sister Yun, losing the memory of the past may not be a thing, why do you have to get it back?
Maybe your memory will come back and you will live in pain."
Yun Qiyou was silent for a moment and said, "Maybe, but if I don't retrieve my previous memories, I will be in even more pain."
After saying that, she walked into the Three Thousand Living Beings Grotto.
Ye Xiaochuan frowned, but he still followed in.
The cave is very large and there are oil lamps inside, but the light is still very dim.
Yun Qiyou only remembered that she and Ye Xiaochuan had been here, and that this place was very important to the two of them, but she could not recall any specific memories.
She looked around at the large and small carvings of lifelike characters with different expressions on the surrounding stone walls, her eyes a little confused.
Suddenly, Ye Xiaochuan said: "Here are the three thousand living beings in Kasyapa Temple. The so-called selflessness, no living beings, and lifeless beings. This is the origin of the three thousand living beings."
Here, you can find statues with similar looks to everyone.
What you are looking for should be these seven pairs of human faces."
Yun Qiyou came to Ye Xiaochuan's side and followed Ye Xiaochuan's gaze. She saw seven pairs of faces on the rock wall from top to bottom. The bottom pair of faces were the same as those of her and Ye Xiaochuan.
The appearance is very similar.
Seeing Yun Qiyou's surprised look, Ye Xiaochuan said: "These seven pairs of male and female sculptures are the seven generations of lovers.
The ones at the top are Lu Jiaoseng and Zhu Yue'er.
Next, the moon is bright and the moon is shining, ten years in the past.
Zhou Xuance, Baong Baoyu.
Qi Dake, Liang Yin.
Bai Wenshan, Dugu Qin.
Situ Feng, Su Qinglian.
And the two of us at the end."
Yun Qi walked to the stone wall in a humorous manner, stretched out his hand to touch the small stone sculptures one by one, seeming to be in some kind of confused state.
At this moment, Ye Cha, the old pervert, popped out again and made a tut-tsk sound.
"Tsk tsk, don't mention it. In each of these seven generations of lovers, the men were not very good-looking, but the women were extremely beautiful.
Especially in the third life, Qi Dake looked dull, but Liang Yin was so beautiful.
Boy, have you ever thought that this may be the source of the tragic ending of the first six lives of the Seven Lives of Resentment.
Beauty and beast, who can stand it?"
Ye Xiaochuan and Ye Tianci said in unison: "Shut up!"
On this issue, their responses were quite consistent.
When Ye Cha said that the male protagonist of Seven Generations of Grudges was ugly, didn't he mean that he was ugly?
Ye Tianci and Ye Xiaochuan are the same person, so they naturally want to fight back.
At this time, Yun Qiyou suddenly said: "I never believed in the curse of seven generations of lovers before, but after seeing these seven pairs of faces, I believe it.
Xiaochuan, I want to ask you a question, and I hope you can answer me truthfully."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "You say."
Yun Qiyou turned to stare at Ye Xiaochuan and said, "Do you love me?"
Ye Xiaochuan suffocated, not daring to look at Yun Qiyou, and slowly turned his gaze away.
Yun Qiyou said: "What, you don't even have the courage to face me?
Or do you think you have a guilty conscience?"
Ye Xiaochuan said: "Master Yun...Fairy Yun, since the moment I betrayed Cangyun, it has been impossible for us."
Yun Qiyou said: "I asked you if you love me, but I didn't ask you if it was possible for us to be together. Don't lie. I can read minds. I can tell if you lie."
