Liu Mengde went down to Qitao Mountain and did not go to Xiliang City. Instead, he went back to Daxi Kingdom and met the king of Daxi Kingdom.
The lord of the country asked: "Why did the lord of the country come back so quickly? What does the lord of Xiliang City say now?"
Liu Mengde replied: "If the king still wants to preserve the Daxi Kingdom, he should not start any more disputes."
The leader of the country asked: "What exactly does the national teacher mean?"
Liu Mengde said: "The lord of Xiliang City has a son who is born strange. He alone is enough to overthrow the Daxi Kingdom. If the lord of the country wants to cause disputes, even a poor man will not dare to take action for the Daxi Kingdom."
The lord of the country smiled and said: "Gu Su knows the magical power of the national master, but it is ridiculous to have one person against a country. The city of Xiliang is now strong and the national power is booming. Even if I retreat alone, they will still attack me in the future, let alone Xiliang If the city doesn’t give an explanation, how can I face the people?”
Liu Mengde refused to listen, so he hung up his seal and left. The leader of Daxi Kingdom had his own considerations. What he wanted was for Xiliang City to surrender and stop the opponent's rising momentum. It did not necessarily mean a war.
The first is to attack the enemy with troops, the second is to attack the enemy, and the second is to attack the city. The leader of Daxi Kingdom does not want to fight unless it is absolutely necessary, but this does not mean that he is afraid of using force.
What's more, he doesn't believe that one person can overthrow a country.
The Luoshui River was surging, and the army of the Daxi Kingdom was deployed on one side of the Luoshui River. The troops gathered together, and the warriors were like clouds. They also drove away wild beasts such as tigers and leopards. They only waited for the Luoshui River to drop slightly before they crossed the river at a shallow place.
Daxi Kingdom not only has Liu Mengde as its national advisor, but also has fortune-tellers who conduct astronomical and geographical surveys. It is predicted that the water level will drop sharply in three days. It has been really sunny for the past few days. The water in the upper reaches evaporates quickly, and the river level continues to drop, gradually becoming only When the man was halfway up, the army of Daxi Kingdom was preparing to cross the river at night.
The troops from Xiliang City were stationed on the other side and were waiting in full formation.
Chen Qing came to the camp in person with a solemn expression. Although most of her troops had practiced the Divine Foot Sutra, not all of them had the ability to fly over walls and fly over walls. Moreover, their experience in fighting on the battlefield was not as rich as the other's. Moreover, the Daxi Kingdom could drive away tigers and leopards. There are many dangers in a war.
She had made a lot of preparations for this and had not had a good night's sleep in the past few days, relying only on the spiritual water sent by Shen Lian. Now she has even more burdens, not only does she have a city of people, but she also has a daughter.
Compared to Shen Lian, she devoted a lot of love to her daughter.
This battle was quite dangerous, so she entrusted her daughter to Shen Lian to take care of her on Jieyang Mountain.
She didn't want to rely on Shen Lian this time, she wanted to make a career on her own. Even though she unified the land with a radius of three thousand miles, Shen Lian didn't take it seriously.
Chen Qing observed the drop in the water level and knew that at a certain critical point, the opponent would cross this natural barrier and drive away wolves, tigers and leopards, as well as warriors more ferocious than the wolves, tigers and leopards. It would be a big battle.
In the evening three days later, a paper crane flew into the camp. Chen Qing received the paper crane. The words on it were still vivid in her mind. When she saw it, she just smiled bitterly and immediately ordered the troops in the camp to set off immediately and return to Xiliang City. , As for the supplies and baggage, I don’t need any of them and leave the camp immediately.
The scouts on the other side observed that many of the generals were laughing when they reported back to the leader of the Daxi Kingdom. After all, Xiliang City was just a generation of women, with a fierce look and a weak heart. When they saw that they were about to cross the river, they did not even dare to ask for the baggage and fled overnight.
Only the leader of Onishi Kingdom was deeply puzzled, but he couldn't find the reason.
On Jieyang Mountain, Liu Mengde came to Xuanduguan after resigning from the Daxi Kingdom as a national master.
A cute girl carved in pink and jade ~ playing under the peach tree, with colorful fallen flowers and peach blossom faces, so beautiful.
Shen Lian smiled and said: "This glass of wine is called Peach Blossom Nong. Last time you came here, we were considered an enemy country, so I didn't invite you to drink it. Now you can drink it."
Liu Mengde was a little hesitant. After all, he was the reincarnation of a peach, and the tea brewed from peach blossoms was quite strange.
Shen Lian saw his doubts and said softly: "Luohong is not a heartless thing. It turns into spring mud to protect the flowers. Life and death, life and death, life and death, you still can't see through it."
Liu Mengde picked up the teacup and then put it down.
Shen Lian added: "Drinking a cup of peach blossom wine can be worth your efforts in practicing for a year."
He sighed: "I can see through it, but I'm not used to it."
Shen Lian smiled and said: "Just this sentence, it will be a matter of course for you to keep the fire intention alive. People like you and me are no longer ordinary, so naturally they cannot be restrained by moral etiquette. But after all, growing up in the world, it is inevitable With some fixed habits, not all Taoism should be cultivated in the same way, otherwise there would be no fun. Just like the peach blossoms are all born from the same tree, there are still big and small. When the flowers fall, some follow the flowing water, and some fall by the well. , some muddy soil is just a matter of chance.”
Liu Meng was blessed to the heart and said: "What the predecessors said made me think deeply, but I also gained something. Although its shape is different, its heart is the same. No matter how small the world is, you can still yearn for the sky."
What he said is that there are many differences in appearance, but the heart of cultivation never changes. He is in his infancy today, but he can be great in his youth.
Shen Lian said: "We'll see."
Liu Mengde said: "I met the ancestor in Xuanzhen Temple. At that time, I was trembling with fear and sweating profusely. But after talking to the senior twice, the fear in my heart was reduced a lot. It was like seeing the spring breeze. The younger generation was a little puzzled by this, because the ancestor was also kind and cheerful. Speak to me as an equal.”
Shen Lian's long gaze fell on a piece of peach blossom, which happened to float to the forehead of his younger sister Xiaoke, which was a little bright red and unparalleled in beauty. He said slowly: "Mortals feel solemn when they see high mountains, but the sky is higher than the mountains, and every day of the mortals... You see it, but you take it for granted. This is probably the truth. You still want to ask, how will I deal with Daxi Kingdom? "
Liu Mengde said: "That's exactly what I meant. The Daxi Kingdom treats me well. Although I have tried to persuade the king not to listen, I can't just stand by and watch him encounter a catastrophe."
Shen Lian said calmly: "They are not worthy of me to take action, but the Daxi Kingdom is definitely defeated. How can magical powers be matched by the sky? It is going to be night soon. Go to Luoshui quickly. Maybe you can save a few people. It all depends on God's will." "
Liu Mengde said in surprise: "What do you mean, senior?"
"Thunderstorms fall from the sky, the earth cracks and landslides. These things have never been deliberately targeted by God. They just happen naturally. Isn't it better than turning over when sleeping and caring about the ants around you?" Shen Lian said calmly. said.
Shen Lian got up, went under the peach tree, picked up his sister Xiaoke, stroked her hair, and said, "What do you want to eat today?"
Xiaoke looked at the black tiger in the distance, swallowed his saliva and said, "Can we eat dog meat?"
Black Tiger trembled all over, and said with sadness and anger in his heart: "My little ancestor, I am a tiger, and you ride on me every day, and you still want to eat me."
Shen Lian looked at Black Tiger and said after a long time, "Nanny, this is not a dog."
