Yan Dynasty forbids cultivating immortals

As Li Er said, they arrived in Yanzhou after half a month's journey from Xi'an. During this period, in order not to be conspicuous, Qing Li changed his white Taoist robe, and wrapped it in burlap clothes like Li Er, and exposed himself to the wind and sun for a long time. When he arrived at the border of Yanzhou in [-] months, only his teeth were left on the whole body of Qingli.

It is only two miles away from the border of Yanzhou, and the army of the Duan Dynasty is stationed fifty miles away, but it doesn't make much sense.And Yanzhou is as solid as gold, especially Changyi, which is a veritable military fortress.

When Qingli saw the river, he got off his horse, scooped up the water to wash his face.Li Er looked around vigilantly. Although the troops of the Duan Dynasty were all cowards, it would be troublesome if they happened to bump into a few spying scouts.

Qingli washed his face, and suddenly asked, "You came back to fight, right?"

Li Er was not surprised, "Yes."

"You smell a lot of blood, you probably killed a lot of people?"

"countless."

Qingli said softly, "I calculated for you, within ten years, the Duan Dynasty will be destroyed."

Li Er was startled, "What else have you figured out?"

"No, I want to count you, but you are related to me, so I can't figure it out."

"But when you win the world and you don't have to fight anymore, can you take me to the capital to play?"

"can."

There is no reason why the Yanzhou border should not be fortified, but there is no defense here. The garrison of the Ming and Ming Dynasties is on the opposite side, but there is no corresponding large army guarding here. Impossible to cross at all.

Qing Quer followed Li Er and led the horse into the dense forest. The forest was a little too quiet. Qing Quer's five senses were keen, and he couldn't hear the sounds of animals in the woods. He could only hear human breathing, intertwined and undulating.

Qingli tugged at Li Er's sleeve, "Hey, don't leave, this place is full of people."

Li Er pinched his head, indicating that nothing happened, picked up a stone casually, and threw it at an inconspicuous tree trunk. Before Qingli knew what his intention was, he saw a piece of land hidden in the grass The net suddenly appeared, tightened instantly and hung up, but the net was empty, and Qingli and Li Er were far away from it.

"Hey? How do you know there is a ground net there?"

Li Er said lightly, "I used to set it up there." Then he raised his voice, "Come out."

In an instant, more than [-] people appeared from all directions in the originally empty forest, and surrounded them. They were fully equipped with weapons, and they didn't know that they had hidden there before.

The first person stood up and drew his knife, "Who are you?"

Li Er threw away all the messy things on his body, opened his arms, "Take me to Changyi, I'll find Liu Ping."

Qingli and Li Er were pushed onto a donkey cart and sent to Changyi, which is the capital of Yanzhou and the base of the rebels.

Both of them were covered with black cloth, and tied together with their backs facing each other. Their wrists were tied to a rope, and they inevitably touched each other. Qingli couldn't get rid of itchy hands by this time. Li Er, he was fully gripped by Li Er's big palm.

Li Er was rough in his heart, Qing Que felt uncomfortable being scratched, and struggled to get out, but Li Er held his hand tightly.

"Who are you who can tell me? I want to hear."

"You'll find out later."

"Is it great?"

"Killed a lot of people."

Qingli stopped talking, Li Er moved his hands and asked him.

"Am I heinous?"

"Every soldier who fights has relatives far away who take up swords and fight to defend their homeland. I can't say that they are heinous. Without them, all the Taoist temples and Buddhist temples in this dynasty land are good, don't talk about it. Dao, you don’t even have a place, so why would you have the audacity to say that you are heinous?”

Li Er said succinctly and meanly, "A bunch of moths."

Changyi is like a military fortress. The green oak is blindfolded and black cloth is taken off, and a troop of soldiers is patrolling in the eyes. The bangers on the street hold wooden weapons in their hands and wear discarded armor to simulate a battlefield charge. There is a weapon in the burden of the hawker at the side of the stall. This is a city where all the people are soldiers. The traces on the wall are shocking, but the people in the city are still very happy.

"Why are they still satisfied?"

"Because there are no heavy taxes and strict laws and regulations, burning incense and worshiping Buddha is not allowed."

Qingli asked again, "There is no heavy tax, so where do you get the supplies for your marches and wars?"

Li Er chuckled, "Occupy, invade, oppress other cities, loot Taoist temples and temples."

The donkey carts walked on the street like an exhibition, but they were not thrown with vegetable leaves. After all, it is very common to enter and leave Changyi City. Many merchants were also escorted in like this. Without much reaction, continue to sell and negotiate.

Liu Ping, who was the number two anti-army figure besides Li Xie, was regarded as the unrivaled general.The leader, Li Sha, was not there. He was in charge of guarding Yanzhou and was usually in Changyi County.

Since the visitor wanted to see Liu Ping by name and was familiar with the forest formation, he was no ordinary person.The soldiers who sent people from the border presented the centurion's concise letter and passed it up layer by layer. It happened that Liu Ping was setting up a formation with a few counselors in the mansion. When he saw the letter, his eyelids jumped and he went out in person to welcome it.

Qingli and Li Er were still leaning back on the donkey cart basking in the sun, Liu Ping hurried out with a few counselors, saw Li Er, no, he should be called Li Xie, and they all knelt down.

"The end will be late."

Qing Li tried to look back at Li Er's face, but Li Er ignored him.

"Okay, don't kneel down stupidly, let me loose quickly."

The escorted soldiers immediately went to untie the rope, and Li Xie gave him an appreciative look when he saw that he was not in a hurry even after tying up the boss.

The soldier was also unhappy, and explained, "General, you said that discipline is higher than that of a military commander. We will do things according to the discipline, and the general will not blame us."

Li Xie smiled, and patted his shoulder with his free hand, "You don't need to go back, I will find someone to write a letter to your centurion later, and I will lend you a few days temporarily." He pointed Qingli, "Just follow him."

This made it clear that he wanted to be promoted, and the soldier had a happy expression on his face.

Qingli was blindfolded and stuffed with a follower, but Li Xie let him go without this time. "Taoist priest, come with me."

Liu Ping and the others were puzzled by this inexplicable Taoist priest, but seeing that the relationship between Li Xie and him seemed unusual, they all called out "Xiao Taoist" and followed behind.

Li Xie's aura has changed since his feet landed on the border of Yanzhou. Qingli's most intuitive feeling is that Xiaoer takes two steps to walk. The steps are so big and fast that he has to trot to barely keep up. .

When the Changyi mansion landed, Li Zhi lightly arranged a follower for him, and strode into the county mansion.This is the headquarters, and the sand table is placed in the lobby of the county government. The first thing he does when he comes back is to see the current battle situation.

"Originally, it was estimated that you would be able to return to Yanzhou within seven days, but you wrote back saying that it would take more than half a month to return, so we changed our strategy first. The troops going south to Jingzhou stood still, and Fei Chang, who was stalemate in Qiantang, made a false move, and Lu Song of the Duan Dynasty fought a battle, and now there is an exemption card hanging on the city wall."

"How did Lu Song do it?"

"Qiantang is difficult to attack by force. Lu Song wanted to lure us into the battle. Every day, he let a few scoundrels and soldiers scold their mothers in the city. The soldiers couldn't stand it anymore, and they panicked."

Li Xie laughed, "Can't hold back if you can't beat it? Let people see it as a joke."

"When will the general go south to attack Jingzhou?"

Li Xi walked to the wall, and the huge territory of the Duan Dynasty spread out in front of him. This is Jiangshan, and the red heart marks the capital of the king.

"Three days later."

Qing Li ignorantly followed behind Li Xie, and the new attendant was inseparable. In a lobby, Li Xie's head was dragging two tails, until Liu Ping couldn't help but look at Qing Li, and Li Xie looked back. Qing Li glanced at him, Qing Li blinked his eyes and didn't understand why he was looking at him.

Li Xie pointed to a chair in the lobby, "You, go sit there and don't move around."

Qingli nodded, and sat there obediently.

"You go outside to buy a few packs of snacks." Li Zhi ordered the new servant.

Sitting there, Qingli didn't look around, just followed Li Xie back and forth, making Liu Ping very confused.It wasn't until the dim sum buyer came back that Qing Quer lowered his head and concentrated on eating the dim sum, like a pine tree eating pine cones, his cheeks were bulging.

The discussions between Li Xie and Liu Ping, the counselors, lasted from noon to the afternoon. During this period, they ate lunch by the sand table and sat around a few square tables.Qingli was dragged to the dinner table in a daze, and then driven off by Li Xie.

Li Xie ordered his attendants to bring a bundle of lettuce from the back kitchen, so Qingli took a large bundle of lettuce and tore the leaves of the lettuce to eat. A counselor was used to joking, and Li Xie was not usually fierce, so he laughed and said that the general raised a lettuce rabbit.

Li Xie glanced at Qingli but didn't say anything, and didn't even smile. Liu Ping stomped on the counselor under the table, and the counselor almost jumped up in pain.

The dinner table, which was talking and laughing, was gradually lowered, and Qingli was still ignorant, gnawing on the lettuce earnestly.

In the afternoon, Li Xun went out to make an inspection tour. When he came back, it was already late, and the lobby was already deserted. Qingli was still sitting on a chair, with a stiff attendant standing behind him.

Today's work is over, Li Xie took a last look at the sand table, flipped through the refurbished battle report, and beckoned to Qingli.

Then he said to the person behind him, "Go to Zeng Xu for a bed, and come back tomorrow."

Zeng Xu was the chief steward of the entire camp, so his followers understood and retreated.

"Let's go."

The green oak immediately followed behind Li Xie.

Li Xie led people through the entire county, knelt down after receiving countless salutes, and put a tail on the back.

After Changyi was captured, the county government became a camp of the Chinese army, and many people were stationed there. The houses and institutions of the original county government were converted into military camps, and all administrative institutions were compressed into one room.Li Xie and Liu Ping usually live in the original county grandpa's courtyard. There are three rooms, two people live in one side, and the middle room is reserved for the hall, which is convenient for drinking and discussing affairs.

Qingli didn't catch his breath until he reached the yard. He was almost choked to death by the bloody smell from the sergeant along the way.

Li Xie went into the room and took a suit of clothes, stopped, and asked Qingli, "Do you want to take a bath?"

Qingli nodded, and Li Xie raised the clothes in his hand, "I'll come first."

Li Xie's so-called bathing is simple and crude.

There is a well in the yard, and the well is filled with water and poured into the pond.The stone pond is natural, and it was carried into the yard by the predecessors to raise fish, but now it has become a bath tub.Li Xie took off his clothes, took the boss's gourd ladle, and scooped water from the top of his head.

Qingli was sitting in Li Zhi's inner room, the windows were so high that he could only see people from the waist up, like the vigorous wild horses he saw in the field.

The water splashed for a while outside, Li Xie walked in wet all over, took out some clothes from the cabinet and threw them to Qingli, "You go."

Qingli nodded and went out holding the clothes.

The stone basin is placed in the open air, and no one is allowed to enter the yard. He and Liu Ping always finish the work by pouring and flushing. It is especially hot in summer nights. They didn't even bother to look at each other.

The pool is not big enough for a person to lie down on, but it is shallow, and Qingqian can't go in to soak in it, so I imitate Qingqian standing on the bluestone slabs on the ground and flushing with water.He took off his clothes, revealing his porcelain-white body that had not been exposed to sunlight.Li Zhi stood in the inner room and looked out through the window, taking in everything at a glance.

Liu Ping came back from a patrol outside, and there were two guards guarding the gate of the courtyard. Liu Ping came back so early because he had something to discuss with Li Xie alone. When he reached the gate, he stopped and asked the guard, "Has General Li come back?"

"Report to General Liu, General Li is back."

Li Yan was lowering his head to pack his things, when he suddenly heard a voice outside the door, he raised his head and Qing Yue was still taking a bath outside, unconscious.

Liu Ping paused and asked again, "Is the general himself or... with someone."

"Take one person."

With mixed feelings in his heart, Liu Ping patted the guard on the shoulder, "I see."

Liu Ping went to push the door and opened half of it. Before one leg had time to raise his head, a strong kick came from inside the door. He reacted very quickly, and immediately retracted the foot that had stepped in. The door closed with a bang, and immediately The latch was blocked.

Liu Ping retreated five or six steps before barely stopping. The guards couldn't help turning their heads to look at the door. The door was closed. It must have been kicked by General Li. Then he looked at the embarrassed General Liu. He didn't know what to do, so he had to kneel down. go down.

Liu Ping couldn't help but rubbed his nose, which was covered by the door panel, and said to the two bewildered guards. After waiting outside the door for a while, the door latch was removed from the inside. Liu Ping slowly opened the door and saw the stone pool There was no one in front of him, so he stepped in with a sigh of relief.

He just caught a glimpse of a figure inadvertently, and with just one glance, he knew why Li Xie brought this person with him.

A beauty in trouble, a beauty in troubled times.

Qingli was taking a bath, and was being washed, so he was picked up by Li Xie and stuffed into the house. As soon as the big lock outside the house was hung, he stuck his head out from the window. Li Xie looked back and saw that his clothes were not in order. Press the person's head and stuff it in.

"finish dressing!"

"I haven't finished washing yet!"

Qingli was very short of breath on Xiaoer's site, so he put it on after holding his mouth for a long time, and sat on a chair to dry his hair.

Liu Ping walked in while touching his nose, Li Xie's expression was normal, but Liu Ping felt guilty and dragged behind.

Li Xie stepped up the steps in two steps, looked back to see Liu Ping was still dawdling behind, then retreated again, "What's the matter?"

"Well, there are some things that are inconvenient to talk about outside, so I came back here to discuss with you."

"Oh, come in and talk."

Liu Ping stood still, Li Zhifu was deeply moved, and looked back at his window, Qingli was looking out at them from the window.

"Go to the back," Li Xie said.

There used to be a garden in the back, but it has been trampled down since they moved in, and it has become bare in the rainy summer season.

Li Zhi deliberately slowed down and waited for Liu Ping.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"An adult in the imperial capital is on patrol and wants to see you, General."

"When?"

"The post has been posted for a long time, and this lord has been wandering around Qiantang."

"Lu Song's warlord, Lin Qingping?"

"Yes."

Li Sha nodded. "I'll meet him on the way south."

"Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Liu Ping lowered his head and said nothing, Li Xie frowned, and suddenly, Liu Ping knelt down.

"what are you doing?"

"General? Please think twice."

Li Ji: "Think twice? What are you talking about?"

Liu Ping was almost speechless, "That... the person who came with you... General Wanwang is clear about it, don't forget our grand plan and hegemony!"

When Li Xie was sullen and silent, it seemed that a storm was brewing, and Liu Ping could feel the huge coercion falling on him like a substance.

It took a long time for Li Xie to reply, "You think too much, and he will leave after a while."

"But……"

Li Xie interrupted him, "I will set off in three days and leave him here, and you will send him away after autumn."

Liu Ping raised his head in disbelief, "Where are you sending it?"

"Zhong Nanshan, he is a Taoist priest."

Li Xi strode away, and Liu Ping knelt on the spot covered in sweat.No matter how many times he faced Li Xie alone, it was as if he was facing thousands of horses alone. It had nothing to do with anything else, but power.Born with the might of an emperor.

So Liu Ping didn't dare to continue asking, but his heart was pounding, can he really send it away?
