Chastity Layman

  Chapter 86 Taiheiro, the Orphan of a Martyr

  The backyard of the Temple of Generals.

   At dusk, under the jujube tree, Su Lie shook his head slightly after reading the letter in his hand.

   "I'm sorry, Mr. Su has retired to the countryside and the world, and I don't want to participate in such things as fighting and killing anymore."

  The visitor wore a robe, and was extremely disappointed to see this.

   "Brother Su, don't you want to avenge your adoptive father?"

   "Don't you want to avenge the countless brothers and sisters back then?"

  Su Lie shook his head.

   "It's all over. Now that the world has been settled, it will only increase the number of murders if you continue to fight. What's the point?"

"Brother Su is wrong. I think Li Yuan wanted to empty Shandong at the beginning, so that all men over the age of 15, weak and women, were driven out of Guanzhong to realize the capital. Brother Su, General Gao and others rose up to resist and pursue the king of Handong. It was such a generous and tragic song to rise up at that time, why is it so bloodless now?"

   "Today is not what it used to be. Back then, the world was in chaos, and everyone was in charge of the world. They all fought for the world. But now the world's position has been determined, and people's hearts are at peace."

"Brother Su really doesn't want to avenge General Gao, the old prince? Brother Su, don't forget who killed General Gao, and Brother Su was pardoned after the defeat, and now, who is it? Brother Su’s adoptive father is Li Shimin, and the one who pardons Brother Su is the old prince!”

  But no matter how much the visitors tried to persuade, Su Lie just shook his head.

"Brother Su, do you think the official position given to you is humble? The position of governor and governor of Mingzhou is not low, not to mention that the king has already named you Marquis of Wuyi. As long as Brother Su is willing to raise troops and make great achievements, you will definitely be rewarded." More reseals!"

  Su Lie just shook his head.

   "It seems that Brother Su has really lost his nerve!"

  Su Lie smiled disapprovingly, thinking of him, Su Lie and Su Dingfang were originally from a wealthy family in Wuyi, Yizhou. Although he is young, he is courageous, brave and good at fighting, and he will be the vanguard in every battle. After his father died in the battle against bandits, Su Lie took over the important task of commanding the army and continuing to seek peace from the bandits when he was less than twenty years old.

  At that time, Zhang Jin, the most ferocious bandit in Hebei, said that he was beheaded by himself. He also defeated the rampant thief Yang Gongqing.

It was just that the Sui Dynasty was irretrievable at that time. After Dou Jiande raised his troops, he was loved by the people of Hebei for his benevolence and love for the people. Su Lie eventually led his troops to defect to Dou Jiande. He fought under Dou Jiande's general Gao Yaxian. Gao admired him very much. Adopt him as a son.

  After Dou Jiande was defeated and killed, Su Lie followed his adoptive father Gao Yaxian and Liu Heitai to rebel against the Tang Dynasty, and suffered two defeats and two defeats. The adoptive father was killed when Liu Heitai was defeated for the first time, and Su Lie was captured when Liu Heitai was defeated for the second time. Later, he was pardoned by Prince Jiancheng. He returned to his hometown and did not serve in the Tang Dynasty.

  Going to the battlefield at the age of fifteen, Su Lie, who is now thirty-three years old, is actually a veteran in the battlefield. How can a general who has survived a hundred battles be afraid of death?

  He has just seen through it, and it doesn't make much sense to continue fighting.

   What's more, the rebel is Li Yuan, a guy who only knows how to steal wives and daughters, how can He De be worthy of his following?

   "Brother, please come back. Say hello to the king for me. Just say that I have fought and fought for sixteen years, and I have long been tired of fighting. Now I only return to the fields and forests."

   "If you think about it carefully, I will stay in Mingshui City for three days!"

   "I've made up my mind, so I don't need to think about it anymore. Brother, please go back, don't waste time here."

  The visitor flicked his sleeves in disappointment and left.

  Su Lie was in a daze.

  The teenager who raised his gun for practice stopped and walked up to him.

   "Master, who was that just now?"

   "An old friend!" Su Lie smiled.

   "Why is he looking for you?"

  Su Lie stretched out his hand and rubbed the boy's head, "It's a little thing, Taipinglang, have you finished your gun training today?"

   "One hundred spears have been stabbed."

   "Didn't you just take advantage of my conversation to be lazy?"

   "Master, I don't have one."

  Su Lie laughed, "Okay, Master believes in you, since you have completed today's task, then hurry up to fetch water to wipe off your body, change your clothes and go home, your mother probably has already prepared the meal."

   "Master, won't you go back with me?"

   "I won't go today. Be careful when you go back. There are many people in Daxu today. Be careful not to be abducted."

   "Hmph, if I meet a bad guy, I'll shoot him with this big gun."

  The boy left with a spear on his shoulders, Su Lie stared at his young back in a daze.

  I think back then, he fought against the boy's father many times, and fought to the death on the battlefield. Who would have thought that now he would become the boy's master, teaching him spear skills here with all his heart.

"Luo Shixin, Luo Shixin, you are really powerful. I was very dissatisfied when you snatched Xianniang back then. It's a pity that you were unlucky and died in this battle. Do you know how bad Xianniang is when you leave like this? It’s painful, but you are lucky. Although you left, Xianniang gave birth to a posthumous child for you, and this kid is very similar to you. , how great it is to be able to teach this child martial arts in person."

  Su Lie packed up the knives and guns in the courtyard, and while wiping these weapons, he couldn't help but think of the gold and iron horses.

   "King Xia, father-in-law, can you understand my decision now?"

When Dou Jiande was defeated and captured at Hulaoguan, Li Shimin promised not to kill him, but he was beheaded when he was taken to Chang'an, and then the court wanted to wash Shandong with blood. Get on your horse and put on your armor.

  That means that these Yanzhao sons and daughters are avenging King Xia. Li Tang didn't believe what he said, and they want revenge.

At that time, countless Su Lie rose up fiercely and tenaciously, and the Tang army retreated steadily. Finally, Li Shimin personally led the troops and Su Lie and others defeated Li Yi, Li Shiji, Li Shentong, Xue Wanche, Xue Wanjun, Shi Wanbao, etc. But in the end it was defeated by Li Shimin, Qin Qiong, Wang Junkuo, Luo Shixin and others.

  Godfather Gao Yaxian also died in that battle.

  After the defeat, Su Lie fled back to his hometown and hid in the mountains.

  Su Lie fought desperately against Tang Jun, but half a year later, they were still defeated.

  Prince Tang Jiancheng captured him, but did not kill him, and pardoned him. Su Lie refused to join the Tang Dynasty to become an official, and finally chose to live in seclusion in the mountains.

  Since then, for Su Lie, he doesn't want to mention the past.

  He has already fought for revenge for Dou Jiande and Gao Yaxian, but he lost in the end, and he doesn't want to fight anymore.

  Now he only has Xianniang and Taipinglang in his heart.

  After that pardon and hermitage, he ran into Dou Hongxian, the beloved Princess Xia. Back then, he was the vanguard general of the Xia Kingdom, young and brave, deeply loved by the King of Xia, and once intended to betroth his daughter Princess Hongxian to him.

  It was only later that Hongxian ran into Wagang General Luo Shixin on the battlefield. The two were about the same age.

  Because of this incident, Su Dingfang suffered for a long time, and also hated Luo Shixin very much.

   Later, when the Xia Kingdom fought against the Tang Army, Su Dingfang also fought Luo Shixin on the battlefield, intending to kill him with his own hands, but the two were tied.

   Later, when the news of Luo Shixin's death in Mingshui came, he was once very disappointed.

   When he later met Xianniang in Mingshui by accident, he found that she had a young child with her. Back then, Hongxian eloped to Luo Shixin and left Hebei. Later, when Wagang was defeated, Luo Shixin first voted for Wang Shichong with a red line, and later abandoned Wang Shichong for Tang.

   Soon, Li Tang and Wang Shichong fought in the Central Plains, Dou Jiande sent troops to the south to rescue, Tang Xia and Zheng Three Kingdoms fought, Luo Shixin, as a Tang general, also began to fight Xia Jun, Dou Hongxian was caught in the middle very painful. Soon after Dou Jiande was defeated, he was captured and beheaded in Chang'an, and Dou Hongxian left Chang'an in grief.

   Liu Heita and others rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, Luo Shixin followed Li Shimin into Hebei to conquer, and finally Luo Shixin died in battle in Mingshui.

  What Luo Shixin didn't know was that when Dou Hongxian left him, he happened to be pregnant. Not long after he died in the battle, his posthumous son was born.

  Hongxian rushed to Mingshui with her newborn baby, but she couldn't even see Luo Shixin for the last time.

  Later, the local people built the Mengjiang Temple to commemorate Luo Shixin, and Dou Hongxian took her children to stay here forever. Later, Su Dingfang met Hongxian here by chance, so he moved here to live in seclusion. While taking care of Hongxian, he taught the child.

   It has been three years in a flash.

  ·······

  Meng Jiangmiaoqian hall.

Entering the gate of the temple, there is the God of Wealth Hall in the front hall. On the left and right sides are Tathagata, Guanyin, Shancai, Dragon Girl, etc., and in the main hall is the fierce general Luo Shixin, wearing armor, holding a horse, carrying a bow and arrows. It is eighteen arhats.

   "Sanlang, the local people offer sacrifices to General Luo, and call him 'Tiancao Sishang Tianwang'."

Qin Lang looked at this clay statue. This was Qin Qiong's closest comrade-in-arms. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin were Zhang Xutuo's left and right vanguards. He voted in Wagang, was forced to surrender to Wang Shichong, and then abandoned Zheng and returned to Tang.

  After returning to the Tang Dynasty, Luo Shixin was granted the title of Duke of Tan, the governor of Jiangzhou, and Qin Qiong was the governor of the horse army in the Qin Palace, and later named Duke of Yi.

  In terms of bravery, Luo Shixin is even above Qin Qiong.

  He was only twenty-three years old when he died in battle in Mingshui City.

  Qin Lang knelt down in front of the statue.

   "Uncle, Huai Liang came to worship, I, Aye, always miss you in Chang'an."

  Qin Lang kowtowed.

  After slamming the statue of Don Luo Shixin, Taipinglang quietly poked his head out and looked at the man who worshiped his father's statue.

   He was even more curious when he heard him call his father uncle.

   "Uncle Luo, this is the national wine brewed by my nephew. I brought it here for Uncle Luo to drink."

"These are some pig ears I just bought outside. I used to hear from me, Aye, that Uncle Luo used to be a clothes maker under Zhang Shuai and wanted to go to the battlefield, but he was ridiculed for being young and short. Uncle Luo was only fourteen years old at the time. Unconvinced after hearing this, he wore three layers of armor, jumped on his horse and charged into the bandits with a gun, killed several thieves, cut off the thieves' ears and ate them. When he came back, he had a string of thieves' ears hanging around his neck, which shocked everyone. Disregarding public opinion, let my uncle wear armor to go into battle... these pig ears, Uncle Luo is closer. When I turn back, I will get some more delicious stewed ears to honor Uncle Luo."

  Tai Pinglang sneaked a look at the plate of pig ears, and saw that the pig ears were fried golden, cut into slender shreds, and the aroma was tempting.

  reached out to wipe the saliva, but accidentally rolled down from behind the statue.

  Qin Lang was paying homage to Luo Shixin, but the idol moved suddenly, a child rolled down, and he quickly reached out to catch it.

  When the child received it, they found that the child was extremely similar to the **** statue.

"Who are you?"

  Taipinglang was very bold when he was caught, "Didn't you just call my father uncle, then I will be your younger brother."

   "Your father? Brother?" Qin Lang was stunned.
