Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 461
Inside a piano pavilion beside the Qinhuai River.

As soon as the sound of the zither stopped, within a short while, only the sound of the three chief soldiers getting up to say goodbye, and then they rode out of the city with their own soldiers very unhappy.

"Shi Niang, your piano sound is indeed outstanding, even Xiaomei is not as good as you."

Li Xiuyuan did not send the three general soldiers away in unison, but said to the beautiful figure behind the curtain while drinking tea.

Ten Niang pursed her lips and smiled: "Since Mr. Li likes it, why don't you come to the Qin Pavilion for a long time? The slave family has been looking forward to Mr. Li's coming here."

"Everything is entangled, and I can't get rid of it." Li Xiuyuan sighed.

"That's right, Mr. Li has a special status. He has to face both ghosts and gods, as well as the turmoil in the world. Sometimes I even think that it is better to be a ghost than to be a human. Being a ghost can at least give you a little bit of peace and comfort, but being a human But he has to run around every day, for food and clothing, for

Fighting for power and power, for the sake of wind, flowers and snow." Ten Niang sighed faintly.

She was a female ghost before, but later became a human being, so she naturally understands the difference between a human and a ghost.

Li Xiuyuan said: "It doesn't matter whether you are a human or a ghost, but they are all living beings. The world is suffering, and being a ghost is not at ease. The world is peaceful, and even ghosts can enjoy purity. It's the same, don't tell me Shi Niang you lived in Hua County

Is it good? "

Shiniang replied: "Mr. Li is a person with lofty ambitions. The slave family is just an insignificant little girl. How can she have the ability to change the world? That is something that the slave family dare not even think about."

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "No, Shi Niang, what you said is wrong. It's not that you dare not think about it, but that there is no hope in this world, and that's why you're sinking like this."

"Hoo! Hoo!"

At this time, there was the faint whispering of ghosts as the wind howled outside.

"Is Mr. Li leaving?"

Ten Niang walked out from behind the curtain slowly, with a bit of resentment on her face.

Ghost voices sounded outside, it was the ghosts and gods under Li Xiuyuan's command.

Li Xiuyuan stood up and said, "Yes, I'm leaving, today's matter is far from over, I have to solve the troublesome things brought about by these three generals."

"The slave family will play another song for you." Shi Niang said.

"Alright." Li Xiuyuan nodded.

At this moment, surrounded by their own soldiers, the three major soldiers rode out of the city on horseback.

"My lord, Li Xiuyuan's men did not come after us." A scout Pegasus came over and reported immediately.

"Wow~!"

The three chief soldiers breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words, pulled the reins, and slowed down the horse.

"This Li Xiuyuan is too conceited. Relying on his nearly ten thousand cavalry, he dared to monopolize Jinling City. He didn't pay attention to us at all. A mere guerrilla general not only dared to commit crimes, but also dared to threaten us. I can't swallow this bad breath. Down."

At this moment, Zongbing Qian exploded in anger, clenched his fists and roared with a ferocious face.

"Lord Qian's words are true. If this Li Xiuyuan is not eliminated, where will we put the face of the commander-in-chief? Today, the two adults have also seen the arrogant attitude of this Li Xiuyuan. If it is not for him, he will never leave Jinling City."

"Since the two adults have such thoughts, why don't we work together to eradicate Li Xiuyuan who is in the way?" Zongbing Sun from Yangzhou said with his eyes flickering.

"How to remove?"

Qian Zongbing said: "Didn't he want to blackmail our 3000 troops? Give it to him tomorrow. As long as he enters the barracks, he will immediately shoot him to death with random arrows. Then the court will say that Li Xiuyuan fell off his horse and died in the army. Fuck a guerrilla general with no identity background, the court will not investigate if he is killed
. "

"Okay, let's do this, I will mobilize a thousand crossbowmen to get ready tonight." Zongbing Sun nodded.

"After killing him, all plans will remain as usual. Li Xiuyuan's credit will be shared by all the adults in the army."

On the road, the three major soldiers discussed the plan to kill Li Xiuyuan tomorrow.

The more they talked, the more excited they became, and the happier they felt, as if tomorrow they could see that Li Xiuyuan's head hung under the handsome man in the army.

"Hoo! Hoo!"

The cold wind at night blew in and kept blowing around, making the three general soldiers shiver uncontrollably.

"Damn it, it's all Li Xiuyuan who insisted on keeping us to listen to the music. It's already late at night and it's freezing cold. Do you want to make us sick?" Zongbing Sun complained: "My lords, let's say goodbye Alright, I'm going back to the military tent to rest."

"Okay, see you two adults tomorrow."

Soon, the three general soldiers arrived and left outside the city, smearing and rushing towards the barracks not far away.

Huhu~!

The cold wind howling at night chased after the three general soldiers in the same way.

The cold wind followed closely, and neither the chief soldier nor their own soldiers noticed anything unusual.

At this moment, in the Qin Pavilion in Jinling City.

A gust of wind blew in, and came in through the gap in the window. The wind spun around the ground, and suddenly a black figure of a man appeared.

"Young master." It was a Yin soldier.

Li Xiuyuan listened to the sound of Shi Niang's piano beside him, and then said: "Tell me, are the three general soldiers discussing how to deal with me?"

"Yes son, just as you expected, the three general soldiers intend to lure you into the barracks tomorrow, ambush you with archers, and shoot you with random arrows."

Yin Bing said all the words that the three general soldiers had talked with before.

As soon as the sound of the zither stopped, Ten Niang looked at Li Xiuyuan in surprise: "Young Master Li, those three commanders are so vicious, how dare they. You are a great general who repelled the rebels."

Li Xiuyuan's expression was calm: "There's nothing these dog officials dare not do. In order to protect their own interests, they wish that everyone in the world who opposed them would die. I am a guerrilla general. The reason why I forced them to stay until night Let them go, just to facilitate the ghosts under his command

God just went out to watch them. "

"Even if you are the commander in chief and have official luck, you can't escape the surveillance of ghosts and gods."

"My lord, now the three general soldiers are not shrouded in official luck, only a puff of black smoke shrouds them. The light of merit has been completely covered, and even little ghosts can get close to them, but they are afraid of the killing spirit in the army. Dare to get too close." The Yin soldier said.

Li Xiuyuan laughed and said: "The black smoke covers the roof, covers the light of merit, and disperses the luck of the body protector. This is a matter of course. They have the intention of harming others, and when they have evil thoughts, they are like black air. They are good people." It will also be taken advantage of by ghosts and ghosts, not to mention that these three generals are domineering

Dog official, Ford, official luck is not much left. "

"This is the opportunity they gave me. Go, call the ghost king with long tongue, ghost with red eyes, and ghost with long beard." After speaking, he waved his hand.

The yin soldier responded, turned into a yin wind and roared away again, and soon flew out of the house, heading towards a certain direction of Jinling City.

"Shi Niang, it seems that I can't listen to your song anymore. It's cold at night, so Shi Niang should go to bed early." Li Xiuyuan stood up and said.

The ten niangs saluted and said: "How can the slave family disturb Mr. Li's important affairs, please be careful about everything, Mr. Li, if you have spare time, please come to the Qin Pavilion to listen to the music, the slave family Qin has always been here."

Li Xiuyuan nodded in response, quickly opened the door, and strode away against the cold night wind.

He didn't go far, but came to a nearby temple.

Hall of Ten Kings.

This is a temple dedicated to the ten halls of hell. Of course, the ten halls of hell do not exist. This is a fake temple, and ten ghost kings are enshrined in it.

Five of the ten statues of ghost kings collapsed and broke, and the altars in front of them were smashed, leaving only five statues still alive.

It seems that no one is taking care of this temple, not even temple blessings.

"Just borrow this place." Li Xiuyuan thought to himself.

Whoo~!

The dark wind whizzed in and fell outside the temple and turned into three ghost kings, namely the ghost king with long beard, long tongue and red eyes.

"The little ghost has seen the young master." As soon as the three ghost kings arrived, they saluted in unison, showing respect.

Li Xiuyuan looked back at them and said, "I called you here this time to help me with something."

The three ghost kings looked at each other and said, "Young Master, please give me instructions."

Li Xiuyuan said: "You should have heard about the three general soldiers who left the city. I want you to go and get their souls. Yin soldiers and ghosts have limited skills, so I'm afraid they won't be able to get these three general soldiers." Soul, so I have to invite you three ghost kings to go, I don’t know if you have the ability to do it
this matter? "

"It's not difficult. The little ghost has heard what the yin soldier said. The three general soldiers became malicious. The evil thoughts turned into black smoke and covered the top of their heads, blocking the light of official luck and fortune. The little ghost took them. His soul is a trivial matter, but the three chief soldiers were in the barracks, and it was difficult to bring out his soul.
Take a moment. "The long-bearded ghost king said.

Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and said: "It's okay, just do this before dawn, bring their souls and question them about the crimes they committed, I will make them unconscious for at least ten days, you understand what I mean Is it?"

"Little ghost understands, please rest assured, young master." The long-bearded ghost king responded.

"Go, I'm waiting for your good news in the side hall." Li Xiuyuan said.

The three ghost kings immediately turned into dark winds and roared away, heading straight for the military camp outside the city.

It's not a war at the moment, the soldiers brought by the three general soldiers are all soldiers who have been out of battle for a long time, with little blood and evil spirit, and their ghost king can break into the barracks.

Li Xiuyuan stood with his hands behind his back, watched them leave, and thought to himself: "These three general soldiers are really a disaster. They want to get rid of me, so why don't I want to get rid of them? They plotted to kill me tonight, so I won't do it." I need to be polite, hook their souls first and then send them away,
Don't give them the chance to wait until tomorrow. "

If the vicious and stupid officials are not punished by the court, then let the ghosts and gods punish them.

This is where Li Xiuyuan's idea of ​​co-governance by man and god lies.

When the court is corrupt, the gods will also be corrupt. Only when the two check each other can they supervise each other and make fewer mistakes.

However, the power of the gods is too great, so Li Xiuyuan wants to weaken the power of the gods, otherwise the way to check and balance the two will not work.
