Chapter seven hundred and forty first return journey
The Taoist nun had a grudge against the old emperor. Li Yi had walked with them all the way before and had several contacts with them. Although he didn't understand the whole story, he probably knew something about it.
Only now do I fully understand that there is more than just hatred between them, the hatred of exterminating their family. This is a true blood feud, the kind of hatred as deep as the sea.
Although the old emperor had not yet ascended the throne at that time, it was not wrong to record this account on the old Li family. He killed the whole family and did not allow people to rebel?
Now that I think about it, it was not easy for the Taoist nun.
After traveling to other countries and enduring humiliation and hardship for more than twenty years, not only did his martial arts cultivation reach the level of a master, but he also developed such a huge force. If it were placed in a novel or drama, it would be a proper revenge plot for the protagonist.
Use it, you don’t even need to change it...
Based on my conscience, if this kind of thing happened to me, I might take even more extreme measures.
However, despite understanding, he still could not forgive what this Taoist nun had done.
The person who killed her whole family was the old emperor's father. Of course, there was no way to avenge this revenge. It was too difficult to take revenge on the old emperor. It stands to reason that if she wanted to kill, cut into pieces or tie up, the most suitable target should be the King of Shu.
, what does it have to do with yourself?
Sympathy is sympathy, and you still have to pay back what you owe him.
Although he was a little regretful that he didn't catch the Taoist nun, he couldn't force it. Li Yi waved his hand and said: "Move quickly, cover all these things, and set off quickly. Find a place to stay before dark."
…”
Night gradually enveloped, and in a clearing somewhere in the mountains, simple tents had been erected. Lights were shining through the tents. Outside the tents, there was also a strong bonfire, with gourmets crisscrossed around them, and grease dripping from the deer legs above the flames.
, sizzling sound...
The roars of various beasts came from the mountains, but they had no impact on this small carnival.
Even a certain man sitting by the fire was still hesitating in his heart about how to eat the bear that he had just beaten back...
Dozens of miles away, a torrent carrying silt rolled away. The middle-aged Taoist nun was holding a figure in her hand, away from the river bank, and walking slowly deeper into the mountain...
In the endless darkness, the shadows of the trees swayed, like wild beasts that preyed on people.
There was also a subtle sound coming from it.
"There is actually someone..."
"She's a Taoist nun..."
"Taoist nun... it's okay!"
Several figures walked out of the darkness and chased forward.
…
…
Shuzhou, Shuwangfu.
His Royal Highness, King of Shu, has been feeling haggard in recent days, and the servants in the palace are still worried, for fear of being scolded or punished by His Highness if they are not careful.
"Your Highness, there is still no news."
The King of Shu sat loosely on his seat. Someone came in from outside and said respectfully.
The King of Shu looked up at him and said, "Are you sure they are not in Qi?"
"Nothing was found along the way."
The King of Shu was slightly excited, "Did they encounter some accident?"
The money and treasures lost in the treasury may not be recovered this time, but if Li Yi and others have an accident, such as choking on food, choking on water, or being hit by a meteorite while walking, it will be a disaster for him.
Good news can dispel the depression in your heart and relieve your mood.
Thinking of this possibility, even his face turned slightly rosy.
It was at this time that carriages drove into the gate of Yongxian City. The guards at the city gate were about to step forward to investigate. When they caught a glimpse of the sign displayed by one of them, their expressions changed and they immediately moved out of the way respectfully.
This was not the first time he had seen such a brand.
The first time they met, it was a guard in the city who had a conflict with those people. Now they would pass by the guard's grave every day when they were on duty.
After the convoy entered the city gate, there were people immediately running towards the Yamen at the city gate.
…
…
The streets in Yongxian County still looked familiar to Li Yi. Not far away, a new Home Inn had been built, but it had not yet opened for business.
Standing at the door of the inn, Li Yi looked around. In the past few months, the surroundings had not changed much, but his mood and situation two times before and after were completely different.
This trip has been running for nearly ten days. Even a martial arts master is inevitably tired. After arriving in Shuzhou, everything does not need to be so urgent. I have a good sleep and recharge my batteries. I will officially set off home early tomorrow morning.
the road.
Not long after settling in, someone came in to announce that the Yongxian County Magistrate had arrived.
The magistrate of Yongxian County did not come alone. He was also accompanied by officials of all sizes within the county government. Li Yi did not see Jiang Zian in the crowd, but he did not pay attention to it. Brother Jiang must have felt uncomfortable at this time.
…
Officials from Yongxian County, big and small, came to offer condolences, but they did not see the King of Shu.
He has already arrived in Shuzhou. With the life-threatening friendship between the two of them, how could he not even show his face?
Although he may not be in a good mood after someone robbed his treasury, there is an old saying that goes well, a spring night is worth a thousand gold, and a thousand gold will come back when it is gone. If the silver is gone, you can make it again. Money is something external to the body, so use it once you get it.
As a landlord, it’s not too much to treat him to a meal, right?
A stingy person will naturally not be able to become a great person. If you can see the big from the small, you can see the leopard from the inside. The King of Shu will definitely not make a big fortune in the future.
When he took a comfortable bath and lay on the bed for the first time in a long time, with a happy look on his face, in the palace of the Prince of Shu, the face of the young His Highness the Prince of Shu turned gloomy to the extreme.
"came back?"
"Back to Your Highness, they have just arrived in Yong County."
The King of Shu was pacing in the palace. After a while, someone came forward to report, and someone from the Secret Service asked to see him.
"If you don't see me, just say that the king is ill, and no one will see you!"
The King of Shu waved his hand impatiently and said, "When will they leave, I will report to this King!"
Although he wanted to kill someone with a thousand knives, he couldn't make the decision in Shuzhou at this moment. Even if they really met, he would be even more depressed. Out of sight, out of mind, even the secret agents would
Gone.
Yongxian County Government.
The Yongxian County Magistrate waved and called a government official over and asked, "Master Jiang said he was ill just now. Are you feeling better now?"
The yamen servant shook his head and said, "Not yet. Your Excellency has been resting in the room."
The Yongxian County Magistrate knocked on the door and walked into a certain room. He saw Jiang Zian lying on the bed with a towel on his forehead and a slightly pale face. He asked with concern: "Master Jiang, how are you feeling? Do you need to call the doctor?
?”
Jiang Zian shook his head with difficulty and said in a low voice: "It's okay. I just reviewed a few cases last night. Maybe I got a little cold at that time. I just need to rest for a few days."
The magistrate of Yongxian County sighed: "Master Jiang has fulfilled his duties and is truly a role model for our generation..."
Jiang Zian said politely: "Everything within your duty should be done."
…
If time were not urgent and he was already eager to fly back to Beijing, Li Yi would definitely stay in Shuzhou for a few more days to reminisce about old times and keep in touch with the King of Shu.
But apart from necessary rest, he really didn't want to waste any time outside.
Early the next morning, he and Miss Liu Er went into battle lightly, took Lao Fang, followed by the sloppy old man and Yuan Laodao, and rode a few fast horses out of the city gate.
As for the people behind, Yang Liuqing is in charge, so there is no harm in going back slowly.
When the people of Yong County began their busy day, somewhere far away from Yong County, Li Yi tightened the reins of his horse and cracked his whip again, followed by a spreading smoke...
