Four hundred and eighty-third chapter two is afraid of chickens
"Congratulations to the saint for suppressing Huagu and removing a thousand-year-old evil from the world."
Looking at the lifelike golden body of beautiful music in front of him, like a living person, Li Xiuyuan heard the congratulations of the Yangtze River King in his ears.
When I came back to my senses, I saw that the alligator on the ground had disappeared, and there was only a child about twelve or thirteen years old standing there.
"Really? But I haven't completely eliminated this Huagu. She said before that she has hundreds of temples and more than seventy dharma statues. Such evil spirits are like weeds in the field, which are difficult to eradicate.
It was just a helpless move for me to suppress her." Li Xiuyuan looked at Aunt Hua's golden face in front of him.
She slowly opened her mouth and said.
"However, Hua Gu only had compassion in her heart before she was suppressed, right? Thousands of years later, when she was released from suppression, she was no longer an evil spirit."
The King of Yangtze River said: "Maybe she will really become a Bodhisattva by then."
"Haha, it's just a coincidence. Before I turned her into a golden body, she pretended to be compassionate and pretended to be a Bodhisattva. Maybe time can erase her other evil thoughts and turn this fake compassion into real compassion.
, so that future generations will not have to worry about such evil spirits harming the world." Li
Xiu Yuan said.
The compassion that lasts for thousands of years, even if it is pretended, may become real after being pretended for a long time.
There are no immutable people in the world, and there are no immutable monsters.
"Aunt Hua will be left in your care. Her golden body will be sunk into the Yangtze River and suppressed for a thousand years. After a thousand years, my magic that turns stone into gold will probably be ineffective. Although using magic with the help of divine authority can bring about unimaginable possessions,
The effect, but the magic is a magic after all, and it is impossible to trap Hua Gu forever," Li Xiuyuan said.
"The saint is worried too much. I believe that these thousand years of suppression are enough to wipe out all her evil deeds." said the King of Yangtze River.
Then he waved his sleeves, and the golden body of Hua Gu in front of him was immediately rolled up and flew into his sleeves, ready to be taken to the Yangtze River and sunk to the bottom of the river as instructed.
He was very happy to help with this matter.
He is the King of the Yangtze River. If he guards Huagu for a thousand years, wouldn't it mean that he will indirectly gain Chengruo and continue to be the King of the Yangtze River for a thousand years?
Although it is not stated explicitly, the meaning is already there.
Of course, the premise is that the King of Yangtze River must abide by his promise and stay safe.
"Let's go, Aunt Hua has surrendered, and the evil spirits in Yangzhou should have been eliminated. Since Shi Hu is not staying with Aunt Hua, I can be sure that this guy has left Yangzhou." Li Xiuyuan got on his horse and looked towards
to the north.
He vaguely felt that Shi Hu was heading north.
Because after defeating Dongyue Shenjun and taking away his divine power, it can be said that the governance of ghosts and gods in the Jiangnan area has fallen into his hands.
If Shihu didn't want Mantis to use his chariot as a chariot, he would flee to the north where he has no jurisdiction.
He didn't have any power base there, leaving only Ma Dong and Niu Er, two ghosts and gods, to keep an eye on the situation in the north, and by the way, build up some power, win over souls, and maintain a little peace in the north.
It is still unknown whether the seeds planted that day will be useful.
"Drive~!"
Riding a dragon colt, Li Xiuyuan left the county with the Yangtze River King and a battalion of troops.
The purpose of this trip is to come for Huagu. Now that Huagu has surrendered, there is no need to stay here anymore. As for the turmoil in this county, he will send people to deal with it later.
One day later, he returned to Jincheng Road.
Although the turmoil has subsided, the aftermath is extremely heavy. Fortunately, he has Wang Ping in his army, Fu Tianchou in Jinling City, and Li Linfu in his house to deal with ghosts and gods.
The manpower may seem small, but all of them are talented people in their own right.
Especially Li Linfu, the management commander of the ghosts and gods, it was all thanks to him to help the village from scratch, otherwise Li Xiuyuan would not be so relaxed.
"The general is back."
"Meet the general."
After returning to Jinling City with some of his troops, Li Xiuyuan immediately walked towards the Yamen.
Before he entered the yamen, a yamen servant ran over respectfully and saluted: "Young man has met the general. Mr. Fu has asked me to wait here for the general to come back. If you have anything to report to the general."
"Oh, why are you sending someone to wait for me to come back? Tell me, what's wrong with Jinling City?" Li Xiuyuan said.
The officer said: "Go back to the general. Just when the general was out fighting, the two envoys from the imperial court arrived. They came with the imperial decree. Master Fu asked the young one to see the general and then asked the general to meet with the two envoys immediately.
Sir, it is an urgent matter."
"The imperial court has sent an envoy here again? Do you know anything about the specific purpose?" Li Xiuyuan asked.
The yamen servant replied: "I heard from the brothers in the yamen office that the rewards from the imperial court have arrived. The younger one saw that the envoy had brought a lot of treasures, including the royal horse supervisor's horse, jade belts, treasure armor, and gold and silver.
Silk, congratulations to the general, congratulations to the general, the general has repelled the rebels and solved the siege of Jinling City. Now we will
The reputation of the army has spread to the ears of the emperor. From now on, the general will surely rise to the top and become rich and glorious."
"Okay, there's no need to flatter you, and I won't give you a reward if I flatter you. Just retreat and send a message. Let the two envoys come to the Yamen, and I will naturally receive them." Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and said.
"Yes, yes, I'm going to send a message right now." The officer nodded repeatedly and trotted away immediately.
When he walked into the Yamen, there was Duan Wenruo, a clerk beside Fu Tianchou, helping with government affairs in the lobby, and there was also a familiar person helping him.
"Hey, Ning Caichen, are you here too?" Li Xiuyuan was immediately surprised.
Unexpectedly, Ning Caichen was also in the yamen.
Ning Caichen immediately raised his head when he heard the voice. After seeing Li Xiuyuan, he hurriedly put down the brush in his hand, stood up and saluted: "Xiaosheng pays homage to General Li. Thanks to General Li's trust, after Xiaosheng received General Li's letter,
He immediately rushed to help, hoping that Xiaosheng's modest efforts
There is something I can do to help General Lee."
"General Li, we have become estranged from each other. You and I have been friends for a long time. Now that I have given up my writing and joined the army, do you think you look down on me as a warrior?" Li Xiuyuan said with a smile.
"Don't dare, don't dare," Ning Caichen smiled shyly and touched his head in embarrassment.
Li Xiuyuan said: "Haha, how does it feel to be an official?"
Ning Caichen said with a bitter face: "Now I know what the labor of doing paperwork is. The pile of official documents I deal with every day is taller than a person, and I have to be careful to correct them, for fear of making mistakes and damaging the people's reputation."
matter."
"Yes, this is an official. Responsible officials are naturally hardworking and tiring, but those stupid officials don't care about the life and death of the people. They do whatever makes them feel comfortable. The people will naturally suffer. You can understand the meaning of the documents.
The feeling of labor, this shows that you have put your heart into it, thank you for this.
Passed, thank you for your help this time." Li Xiuyuan gave a salute.
Ning Caichen was a little flattered: "Brother Li, you're too polite. A young man's reputation is nothing more than a scholar. Now that you have this opportunity to do things for the people, how dare you neglect him? If Brother Li said thank you, wouldn't he be disgracing the young man?"
"Master Li, please don't just reminisce about the past, and don't care about your father-in-law's life in prison? Mr. Fu can't worry about state affairs even in the prison cell. He often asks Mr. Li about your news. I hope Mr. Li
The young master's battle went smoothly this time. He defeated the bandits in one fell swoop and restored the world to peace.
Peace." Duan Wenruo, who was standing next to him, smiled and bowed his hands, then said.
Li Xiuyuan returned the greeting and said: "Thank you, Master Fu, I have forgotten it, but thanks to the desperate fighting of my subordinates, the turmoil in the Nine Mountains King has been subsided. Mr. Duan might as well tell Master Fu this good news."
"Young Master Li is really very capable. More than 100,000 bandits have been wiped out in just a few months. The rewards from the imperial court have just come out. It seems that Young Master Li is going to be promoted to a higher position again. Congratulations to Young Master Li." Duan Wenruo.
said.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "Although the turmoil of Li Liangjin, the king of the Nine Mountains, has subsided, I have seen the decline of the Song Dynasty. A few hundred people raised their arms and became like a cloud of followers. In less than a year, they swarmed the bandits.
More than 100,000. Didn't Mr. Duan and Mr. Fu in prison see this situation?
Come out with something?"
Duan Wenruo smiled awkwardly: "The lower officials only know how to fulfill their duties faithfully, how can they understand the general trend of the world?"
"Mr. Duan, why do you have to pretend to be confused? Although I can defeat the Nine Mountain Kings, if the building is about to collapse, I can't do anything. After all, the reincarnation of dynasties is a law, and there is no eternal dynasty in the world." Li Xiuyuan said seriously.
"In that case, why can't Mr. Li be the person who can save the world?" Duan Wenruo said.
"The sky is going to fall. I can't save it alone. I hope such turmoil will happen less often in the future." Li Xiuyuan said with emotion.
Duan Wenruo also nodded in agreement.
Of course he saw the decline of the Song Dynasty. A mere Li Liangjin could develop to the point of hundreds of thousands of troops. The problems contained in this were so huge that he could not even imagine it.
"General, general, something serious has happened. The two envoys in the government office suddenly went crazy for some unknown reason and shouted for help. This matter is of great importance. I don't dare to make any decisions. I'm here.
Report." The yamen servant who left before suddenly ran back in a panic.
"Um?"
Li Xiuyuan frowned: "How could such a good person be like this? Did someone attack these two envoys?"
"No, no, the general's soldiers are guarding the government office inside and outside. No one dares to attack the imperial envoy." The government official said immediately.
"Did this situation happen today?" Li Xiuyuan asked again.
The yamen servant hesitated and said, "A brother from the yamen office said that something strange like this happened last night, but it was fine again this morning."
"Really? It's possible that they are sick. That's all. Since these two envoys are sick, I will go and see for myself. Otherwise, if they die of illness, they will think that they were killed by me again." Li Xiuyuan thought of the previous Commander Yang.
Make death.
Perhaps the court wouldn't say anything about killing an envoy Yang who had surrendered in Kaicheng. After all, he was a meritorious official.
If these two envoys died in the yamen, then he might be labeled as a rebel.
This was something he didn't want to see.
Taking several government officials with them, the soldiers said goodbye to Duan Wenruo and Ning Caichen and walked towards the government office.
"Gee, why should Mr. Li care about the life and death of the two envoys? The slave family has been waiting for the master here for a long time. Does the master intend to leave the slave family here in the cold all the time?" Suddenly, just as he walked into the Yamen.
When I was signing, a charming and sweet voice suddenly came to my mind.
"Who is it?" The soldiers on the left and right immediately drew their swords and glared, wary of the surroundings.
Li Xiuyuan's eyes flashed with golden light, and he waved his hand: "Don't be nervous, they are my family members."
At the corner of the garden in front, a woman wearing a red skirt, with an enchanting figure and charming eyes, walked out with a swaying slender waist and a sweet smile. Behind her, a fluffy fox tail swayed happily.
stop.
This is Qing'e's sister, Third Sister Hu.
"The third sister has not been seen for a while, why did she appear in the government office? Could it be that the third sister played tricks on the two imperial envoys and caused such a thing?" Li Xiuyuan asked.
Third Sister Hu looked heartbroken and said: "How can you slander the innocence of the slave family? You know exactly what kind of master you are in the slave family's heart. How dare you cause trouble to the master?"
"What's the reason?" Li Xiuyuan asked again.
With a somewhat mysterious look, Third Sister Hu pursed her lips and said with a smile: "I'll tell you when you come to my house."
"Don't lie to me." Li Xiuyuan walked over and said.
"No, how dare the slave family lie to you." Third Sister Hu said: "Come over here, the slave family will only tell you."
"Okay, I'm listening." Li Xiuyuan leaned over and looked at Third Sister Fox who was so close in front of him. He could even clearly smell the fragrance coming from the charming fox girl in front of him.
It's like a mellow wine, intoxicating.
Third Sister Hu stood up on tiptoes with a bit of coquettishness, leaned close to Li Xiuyuan's ear, and said sweetly: "The slave family saw the evil spirit rising and falling in the government office, so they stayed in the government office to watch over the young master.
What about those two monsters? Those two envoys from the imperial court are not human beings at all. Young master, you have to be careful later.
With."
"Huh? There is such a thing." Li Xiuyuan suddenly frowned deeply.
Have all the envoys of the imperial court turned into goblins?
What on earth happened in this capital city?
"Since you are a monster, why are you shouting for help? Do you want to kill them?" Li Xiuyuan asked again.
Third Sister Hu pursed her lips and said: "I was just lazy and took a nap. I caught a rooster in your house and guarded it for the whole night. Who would have thought that the rooster would go crazy when it saw the two envoys from the imperial court?"
They wanted to rush in and peck them, so the two court envoys kept shouting for help, which made the servants rush to rescue the big one.
The rooster was sent away. Who knows what happened today? The big rooster came back again."
"I don't raise chickens in my house. There are a lot of ghosts and ghosts. Where did you catch the rooster?" Li Xiuyuan said.
Third Sister Hu smiled sweetly and said, "Why not? Is it difficult for the young master to forget about that particularly big cock?"
Being reminded by this, Li Xiuyuan immediately remembered.
His face darkened: "That's not an attack, that's Thunder God. You'd better catch it for what it's doing. Be careful when the Thunder God strikes you with one more thunderbolt during the tribulation."
"What are you afraid of? How could a young master be hacked to death in the slave's house? And is the young master cruel enough to see the slave's family die in a thunderstorm?" Third Sister Hu looked pitiful again, her beautiful eyes twinkling, making people look pitiful.
The eyes of the yamen servants and soldiers next to me were straightened.
Li Xiuyuan's mouth twitched: "I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go meet the two envoys for a while."
"The slave family will also go together." Third Sister Hu's demeanor changed, and she looked like a girl full of joy, and followed Li Xiuyuan.
