Daxia Lingxian

Chapter 7
The three of them were in love with each other and became friends at Liyuan at first sight, but one did not burn incense, the other did not witness, and the third did not take the blood oath.

Only the sky full of pear blossoms and three beautiful spring days are evidences;

"I am Luoning in Tuo County, with the style name Zhiyuan. I am eighteen years old. I would like to become brothers with different surnames with Li Dingguo and Su Xian!"

"I, Li Dingguo from Min County, named as Marquis of Jin, aged 22, would like to become brothers with different surnames with Luo Ning and Su Xian!"

"I am Su Xian from Tuo County, with the word Mingxuan, aged 21..."

After a moment of ceremony, the three looked at each other and smiled.

"It's a pity that there is no wine!" Su Xian stretched out his hand and picked up a pear blossom, "There is only one petal of heart fragrance, if this pear blossom!"

"A single thread does not form a thread, and a single tree does not form a forest. Eldest brother and second elder brother, today the three of us form a congregation. Brothers are of the same heart, and everything is beneficial!"

"A big man has a clear distinction between grievances and grievances, and he acts rashly. Although there are thousands of people, I will go." Li Dingguo brushed the pear blossoms falling from his shoulders, "From today, Li Dingguo is willing to attach his elder brother Fengwei."

Luo Ning said: "Share weal and woe, share weal and woe, don't forget wealth and wealth."

He has been a human being for two lifetimes, so of course his eyesight is not bad.Li Dingguo and Su Xian are worthy of deep friendship, which is not easy in this troubled world.

Li Dingguo said: "Since we are already brothers with different surnames, and we love brothers and sisters, I don't need to hide it."

"My ancestor was Cao Guogong, the founding father of Daxia, who was a general for generations. However, he was stripped of his title and his clan was scattered. By the time my grandfather had plowed the fields for farming, and by the time of my late father, he was even reduced to a refugee."

When he said this, his heroic and heroic face could not help showing a look of sighing and sighing.

"It's a pity that I have the blood of a general, but I don't have the resources to practice martial arts, and I can't reorganize my family business and serve the country."

"Nowadays the year is too weak, and the years are wasted, and it is often unfair."

Luo Ning and Su Xian didn't expect that Li Dingguo was the descendant of Cao Guogong who had the blood of a general.

Naturally born general, martial arts wizard!
But since ancient times, poor culture and rich military.Practicing martial arts and military arts requires a lot of money and resources, and ordinary families cannot afford martial arts.

But for Li Dingguo, who has general blood, these shouldn't be a problem.

According to the imperial court system, he will be directly selected as the famous general Miaozi, and sent directly to the Taiwu Hall of the capital to learn martial arts and the art of war, with a bright future.

why...

Li Dingguo continued: "I know that the elder brother and the third younger brother have doubts. In fact, I could have participated in the selection and entered the Taiwu Hall."

"It's hateful that the selection of national military officers is in the hands of Confucian and Taoist officials!"

"The observer responsible for the selection of generals, Zhou Yayan, wants to take me in as his son-in-law. But his daughter is pregnant out of wedlock, so I don't know who the adulterer is. How can I agree, a dignified man? He flatly refused."

Su Xian smiled wryly and said: "So that's the case. Zhou Yayan is the observer of Yizhou, and the state shepherd even gave him three points, but you offended him to death. How can there be any good fruit?"

Luo Ning couldn't help shaking his head.

The Yizhou Observation Envoy patrols Yizhou on behalf of the Celestial Dynasty and has great power.Li Dingguo offended him, it is good to survive, but he still wants to stand out?
Li Dingguo sneered and said: "Later, although Zhou Yayan left Yizhou to return to Beijing, before he left, he issued a downgrading order. He found a reason to downgrade my Li family from a peasant to a lowly one."

Both Su Xian and Luo Ning understood.

In Daxia, lowly nationality was not within the scope of the imperial court's selection of materials at all.

No matter how powerful you are, the imperial court will not select talents from humble backgrounds.

Institutionally, his official career has already ended.

Unless you can get rid of the low status.For Li Dingguo, it was too difficult.

Daxia Confucianism Cultivators are not only connected with each other, and officials and officials protect each other, but they are also famous for their ability to punish people.

Su Xian said: "Second brother, it's not just you? I'm not like this."

"Elder brother and second brother, have you heard of the Su family in Shu County?"

Li Dingguo said: "The Su family of Shu County, one of the four great families in Yizhou, who has a famous family for thousands of years, who doesn't know? Could it be that third brother, you are from the Su family of Shu County?"

Su Xian looked sad: "That's right. My younger brother is originally the grandson of the Su family. Eight years ago, our brother and sister were still in Shu County thousands of miles away."

"At that time, my late father was involved in a high-level demon-communication case, he was slandered and secretly communicated with demons, and was arrested and imprisoned by the Embroidered Clothes Dragon Guard."

"The family expelled their late father from the sect in order to save their pawns and save the car, and put aside their ties. He will never return to the sect."

"My late father was abandoned by this sect, and he was executed as a scapegoat."

"My late mother took me and my younger sister away from the sect, and came to this county, and settled down in Tuo County. She died of grief and anger, leaving only us two brothers and sisters..."

"The noble family is the most ruthless, and there is nothing to miss. The Su family of Shu County has nothing but hatred for me."

Luo Ning sighed and said, "In this way, although my family has no origin, it is also simple, unlike the two brothers."

He had already seen that the two of them had good backgrounds, and they were not really from grassroots at all.

Li Dingguo is heroic and heroic but not vulgar, and Su Xian is elegant and profound but not sour.

After everyone said this, they felt a lot closer and more informed.

The three left the Ewha Garden and continued on their way. Along the way, there were more and more refugees.

The refugees are basically wandering in this county and county, and rarely leave the county.

They ranged from a small family to a dozen large families, and they traveled across villages and villages in groups.

"Twenty percent of household registrations in the world are refugees" is not an exaggeration.

However, the reason why farmers became refugees was not only because of land loss, disasters, and excessive taxes, but also because many people were avoiding thieves, plagues, and ghosts.

Often when thieves, plagues, demons and ghosts make a scene in a certain place, the people there will leave with their families and become refugees.

When my hometown settled down, I ended my wandering and returned to my hometown.

Such refugees make up the majority.However, there are not many people who are really homeless and unable to eat.

Today's situation is that the cities and towns are still peaceful and prosperous, but the remote villages are increasingly restless.

Su Xian looked at the endless stream of refugees living on the side of the road, and couldn't help frowning: "Where did the disaster happen?"

Li Dingguo pointed at the refugees: "It looks like refugees who are avoiding thieves and ghosts. They still have furniture, animals, and food. It's not that they have nothing to eat."

Luo Ning operated the Ling Dao Orb, sensed the expression and breath of the refugees, and said, "It's to avoid the plague, and there is a plague god. Hmph, the plague god is causing trouble, but the city god's land doesn't care, and the incense is in vain."

It stands to reason that he should find out and see if he can use this to help the refugees and collect willingness.

But he missed his younger sister at home, so he didn't care about it for the time being.

"The government turned a blind eye to these things. It's really strange." Su Xian pondered, "If the government rectifies it properly, it will definitely not be like this."

Li Dingguo snorted coldly: "What's so strange about this? It's nothing more than the corruption of the officials, the corpses are eaten without food, and the administration is perfunctory.

"No." Su Xian shook his head, "Second brother, my younger brother thinks there must be something wrong. Although the government has become slack in politics, it is not close to indulgence."

Li Dingguo shook his head: "Let's go, brother has urgent matters at home."

The three of them and one dog ate a few mouthfuls of dry food and drank a few mouthfuls of mountain spring on the side of the road, and then continued on their way.

At Chou in the afternoon, I finally crossed the Qinghe River and arrived at Fengye Village.

Turning around a hill, I saw the maple forest was like fire, shining like haze.A village of two to three hundred households is located surrounded by maple forests.

Beautiful and picturesque.

A smell of fireworks in the world, blowing towards the face, makes people feel peaceful.

The bluestone archway at the entrance of the village is so familiar, even if it is the first time for Luo Ning to come back, he still feels very cordial.

Several half-sized and small cowherds were riding on the backs of the cows. When they saw Luo Ning entering the village, they couldn't help but whistle.

"Hey! The son-in-law of the Xue family is returning to his mother's house, rare visitor! Let the village elders come out to greet you."

"Don't talk nonsense! He is not a son-in-law!"

"What is not a son-in-law?"

"It's the back door!"

"Mother Gan Lin, isn't that the same? Haha!"

"No, it's Jinshi brother-in-law back! Be careful Jinshi brother-in-law rewards you!"

Several young boys giggled.

"Wow!" The little black dog suddenly barked childishly at the cowherds, seeming to understand their taunting of its master.

"Haha! Look at that bastard, as long as I step down..."

When they saw the burly Li Dingguo's cold eyes, they all shivered and fell silent like a cicada.

Luo Ning walked by as if nothing had happened, turning a blind eye to these unsophisticated and unkind mountain village boys.

But when he heard the words Jinshi brother-in-law, his red phoenix eyes became even colder.

When the villagers saw Luo Ning coming back, many people wanted to strike up a conversation, but Luo Ning looked like he didn't recognize his relatives, so no one came forward.

No one dared to point him behind his back.Because everyone in the village knew that he would soon be the brother-in-law of Master Jinshi.

Even if his younger sister is only a concubine, she can still be considered the Jinshi master's brother-in-law.

Luo Ning was familiar with the road in the village, passing through farmyards, and soon came to a simple courtyard with loquat trees planted in front of the door.

A naive girl about twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a Yuebai skirt and two horn buns on her head, is sitting under the grape arbor in the small courtyard, holding the soles of her shoes.

Although she is still young, she is like a budding flower, and she has already begun to show a trace of her peerless demeanor.

The natural beauty that cannot be concealed is freehand from the innocent and delicate face, like a prajna painting.

Really a beautiful woman with pink makeup and jade carvings.

"Li'er..." Luo Ning couldn't help showing a spring-like smile when he saw this girl at the gate of the courtyard.

Raised in Zangbiyu in the mountain village, there is a younger sister named Luoli at home.

All the way was burning with anxiety, and when she saw that the younger sister Luo Li was doing well, Luo Ning's heart that was raised all the way was temporarily put down.

As relieved.

"Brother!" Luo Li raised his head to see Luo Ning, his small petal-like mouth opened slightly, and then revealed a look of surprise.

She dropped the needle and thread in her hand, stood up abruptly, and threw herself into Luo Ning's arms.

"Brother! Huh..." The little girl cried loudly while hugging Luo Ning, "Mother is gone! Missing!"

what? !

Luo Ning trembled, "What are you talking about! Mother is missing?"

Luo Li's little hand tightly grasped Luo Ning's arm, Rumu's little face was full of tears and nodded, "Mother has been missing for seven days, a note was found in the room..."

Luo Li took out a carefully folded note from his pocket.

Luo Ning opened it and saw that there was a line of strong and powerful handwriting like a silver hook and iron painting: "Mother is gone for a while, you brothers and sisters take care, meet by fate, don't read."

"This is not mother's handwriting!" Luo Ning's face was gloomy, "The owner of the handwriting has taken mother away!"

Luo Li raised his teary eyes from his arms, "I can also see that it's not mother's handwriting. Brother, who took mother away?"

Luo Ning shook his head: "I don't know. Li'er..."

He could only comfort his little sister, "Mother is sure to be fine, she will definitely come back, don't worry. The person who took mother away should not be malicious."

Luo Li nodded: "Brother, I know, mother is definitely safe and well..."

Seeing this scene, Li Dingguo and Su Xian couldn't help sighing.

The son came back, but the mother disappeared!
It's really easy to part and difficult to reunite.

Luo Ning comforted Luo Li for a while, and suddenly saw the soles of her shoes, which were obviously a pair of men's shoes.

Whose shoes are these?Li'er is only 12 years old!

"Li'er, whose shoes are these?" Luo Ning asked gently, stroking his sister's head.

Luo Li wanted to cry, looking at the unfamiliar Li Dingguo and Su Xian, he hesitated to speak.

"They are brothers and sisters of brother, you just say it." Luo Ning frowned slightly.

Luo Li lowered his cute little head and whispered, "It belongs to Brother Cai, Brother Cai..."

Brother Cai...!
When Luo Ning heard this, he almost exploded on the spot.

They forced you to be a concubine, and you returned to Brother Cai?
Sister, do you know the severity?
Even your brother didn't wear the shoes you made, but you made shoes for Cai Ji.

Sister!

For a moment, Luo Ning didn't know what to say.

"Little sister." Luo Ning took a deep breath, "I heard that Cai Ji wants to take you in... Are you voluntary?"

He took the initiative to make shoes for Cai Ji, and kept calling him Brother Cai!

Luo Ning's heart seemed to be stabbed by something suddenly.

If it wasn't for her simplicity, then she really wanted to be Cai Ji's concubine?

Luo Ning had a hard time accepting it.

At this moment, a hearty laugh suddenly came: "Oh, Zhiyuan is back! I miss you so much!"

This voice is so familiar, so kind, and how much the original owner once trusted him.

But hearing this voice at this time, Luo Ning could only feel chilled.

Feeling sorry for the original owner!
While calming down his emotions, Luo Ning turned around, and sure enough, he saw a familiar figure with an elegant demeanor.

Cai Ji!

At this time, Cai Ji was no longer the shabby boy he was back then, but was dressed in fine clothes and crowned, with a noble demeanor.

From top to bottom, there is a noble and elegant temperament of a Confucian and Taoist monk.

Behind him was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in a blue skirt with outstanding looks.

This rich girl-like girl is also very familiar.

It was Cai Quan'er who followed behind the original owner back then, Ning Ge long and Ning Ge short, and vowed not to marry Luo Ning when she grew up!

But at this moment, she was looking at Luo Ning indifferently, with a cold smile on her face.

"Brother Cai." Seeing Cai Ji, Luo Li smiled innocently and shyly, and bowed awkwardly.

When Luo Ning, Li Dingguo, and Su Xian saw this scene, they couldn't help showing displeasure.

This…

"Zhiyuan, you're back." Cai Ji paced squarely, walked up to Luo Ning with his head upright, "You look much better, at least the food in Xue's residence is good."

"I was going to go to the Xue residence to tell you about Li'er. But if you come back just in time, that's just in time."

Luo Ning looked indifferently at this Jinshi master who was once as close to the original owner as a brother, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Brother Cai, please tell me."

Right now, it is absolutely not possible to confront Cai Ji head-on, that would be courting death.

calm down…
