At the same time, he also realized that, as an eminent monk who returned to the Tang Dynasty with scriptures, the court, in accordance with the practice, would definitely give him a new legal name.
For example, when Xuanzang returned from his westward journey, the imperial court gave him the name "Sanzang Master".
The future name of "Wukong" in the Dharma Realm probably comes from this.
Such a recorded celebrity is still the prototype of Monkey King, Monkey King, and has too much influence on religion and culture, so Tang You has this arrangement.
He looked back.
In the first [-] years, everything was carried out step by step, and the scale of the Holy Shield team steadily expanded under the leadership of Goku Majin.
Li De gradually became the No. [-] figure, and the orphans he adopted in the past have also become the most courageous combat power.
The footprints of the Holy Shield are all over the areas where all the monsters have existed.
But in the twenty-first year, the mutation mutated.
The last item parasite, taking advantage of the conflict with the local tribes and races in the expansion of the Caliphate Empire, made a desperate gamble to disintegrate special items into pieces, and wantonly create 1st or 2nd level evil, to lure the Holy Shield to go.
Wukong really led his main force to stop it.
As a result, they actually succeeded just before the Holy Shield arrived...
They have a lot of combat power and have lost the ability to continue to bring companions, which is equivalent to a last stand.
A fierce fight broke out between the two sides.
Although Wukong has been upgraded to the limit of level 2 and has the top-level spiritual pattern extraordinary battle armor, he is only struggling to support it in the face of more than ten times the enemy.
The rest of the Holy Shield personnel suffered a one-sided massacre.
In the end, Wukong retreated with the remaining dozen or so people and hid in Tibet.In those months, Aegis was almost a rat in the gutter.
The flame of the Holy Shield has reached its weakest point.
The evil parasites used to slaughter the village to force the remaining people of the Aegis to come out.The remaining dozen or so members of the Divine Shield spend every day in self-blame, despair and pain.
The only thing they can do is to hone themselves to death and try their best to move forward in the darkness where there is no hope.
One day has passed, two days have passed...
A month has passed, two months have passed...
Finally, Wukong catalyzed the ring of crystals in his body to the extreme, completely fused with it, and was promoted to level 3 in the limit, and the rest also broke through.
In the Jedi, the Holy Shield completely sounded the horn of the counterattack!
"Roar!!!"
The mountain-like giant monkey rose from the ground, and the terrifying momentum made the clouds solidify.
"Monster! Take your life!"
Wukong's envoy sent a giant stick to the sky, and he swung it out, and the golden beams swept across the sky, and the parasites of the broken objects fell one by one.
The power of that stick even caused a magnitude-[-] earthquake for dozens of kilometers nearby.
Although the culprit is dead, thousands of parasitic demons and demons have fled all over the place, hiding in the crowd.
After several years, the battered Aegis has gradually recovered.. 0
They go together in twos and threes, walking around like wandering knights, hiding their identities and wandering in the countryside and cities, looking for traces of demons.
They eat and sleep in the open air, they are not in harmony with fame and fortune, they slay evil, and they do not ask for anything in return.
Once they learned that someone had been attacked by demons, they stepped forward, fought selflessly, fought with blood, and then walked away without leaving a single name.
AD 825, the first year of Baoli.
When the last demon parasite died under the sword of the members of the Holy Shield, the golden barrier that shrouded the sky for 37 years and prevented any extraordinary creatures from going out finally slowly dissipated, and the members of the Holy Shield also clearly felt the power of exclusion.
So, they looked at each other, and in joy, reluctance and confusion, they took out their life seed and returned to ordinary people.
As the strongest, Wukong, who has reached the mid-level 3, was pushed out of the universe without even being asked to stay, and floated alone in a timeless void.
Under Li De's organization, the Aegis was disbanded.
At the age of fifty-five, with gray hair, he was finally able to embark on the journey home.
But Li De has lost his extraordinary power, and he is old and frail. In addition, the Caliphate Empire is getting weaker day by day, and the phenomenon of feudal lords in various places is gradually emerging, which makes the return journey even more difficult.
Originally, he could still pay and follow the Eastern Roman caravan.
But halfway through, the caravan was robbed.It was a group of soldiers of a certain governor of Dashi, who deliberately pretended to be robbers to loot property.
Li De, who used to be inappropriate, is now in his old age. On the land where he once fought to the death, he was kicked to the ground by fake robbers, and his money was looted.
Even the dazzling gems that Wukong helped him find and let him bring to his wife were also snatched away.
When the robber left, he sat up with difficulty and looked up at the sky, his old face was silent.
"I want to go home……"
Li De muttered in a low voice, picked up a broken stick and used it as a crutch. He limped and walked towards home step by step.
Looking at this piece of memory, Tang You's face was condensed, and his hands were clenched little by little.
From Dashi to East Rome, Li De walked for two years.
When he walked to the family residence, he found that in the past [-] years, everything has changed. The house has become smaller, dilapidated and old, as if it has not been maintained for many years.
After knocking on the door, the person who came to open the door covered his nose and asked who it was.
Even the person has changed, already... no one remembers him, and drives him away as a wandering beggar.
In the end, the housekeeper son who took care of him when he was a teenager, now the same old man, heard the quarrel and walked out, and in the shudder of surprise, cried out his name.
His son is now thirty-eight years old, and he is very indifferent to this "irresponsible" father who has been away for more than [-] years.
And Li De also learned that his wife had died in his thoughts as early as the eighth year after he left, and the housekeeper supported his young son, but the family still inevitably declined.
Standing on the grass behind the church, looking at the solitary tomb in front of 5.3, in his mind still came to mind the young woman who was leaning against the door frame, holding her son, crying in grief.
She was always so meticulous, always looking at herself with a sweet smile.
And he smiled and said to her: "Don't worry, I will come back alive, and I will bring you the most splendid gem in the world."
Then, he hit the horse and drifted away from her eyes.
The aging Li De trembled and hugged the tombstone. Everything in front of him was blurred with tears. He wept bitterly: "I love you, so I tried my best to protect you."
After that day, his health got worse and worse.He realized that his life was about to come to an end.
sitting in the yard,
Li De looked at his palm, and he knew that there was a holy shield mark that would never appear again.
Recalling the past years and the sacrificed faces, he suddenly felt that he still had some things to do.
So, one afternoon, he struggled to unfold the parchment, looked out the window for a moment, picked up a quill pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote the first sentence:
"Maybe the world will never know that in a certain corner of the world, there was once such a group of people, there was... such a story."
Signed: Matthew de Dubois.
In 830 AD, the young noble Schoenaus, the fearless warrior of the Holy Shield, the hero Li De who guarded the world, and the finally aging Matthew died in the face of the indifference of his family and the rebuke of the Holy See.
……
ps: This chapter is very tangled, so it's late...
Why Li De suddenly became Matthew, the reason is in the content of the next chapter. .
Chapter 207
Seeing Li De's ending, Tang You suddenly fell into a long silence.
The sunlight poured in from the window, making the room dark and clear. He sat on a chair, half immersed in the dimness and half bathed in the sun.
The quiet chirping of birds still echoed in my ears.
He saw with the eyes of a statue that the dust in the room was slowly flying in the light.
In addition to Wukong, the people who fought to the death for the Holy Shield should have been dead for more than a thousand years at this point in time.
In the blink of an eye, all the old people are gone.
For the first time, Tang You really had the mottled feeling of the years.
He looked up, his eyes seemed to pierce through the roof, through the secret realm of the headquarters, across the vast starry sky, and saw Wukong, who had been floating alone for thousands of years in the boundless void.
"System, can you pull Wukong back now?" He asked the system, his voice a little low.
"It's pulling, a thousand years, it's too far, it takes a certain amount of time." The system's always monotonous, no emotional fluctuations sounded.
Tang You was silent again for a long while before he let out a long sigh: "Phew... It's good to be back."
Then, he asked the biggest doubt in his heart: "System, why did I use the power of prayer to inquire in the Tang Dynasty and found that Li De was not Matthew, but when he wrote "The Knight of Light", he used the horse again. Fix this name?"
The system gave the answer directly.
"Shunaeus de Dubois, a native of the Dongluo Empire, was born in 770 AD, the second son of the contemporary Dubois family."
"The family has been inherited from ancient Roman times. Because the family fief is a forest, the surname is 'Du Bois'. Its name has always been the original name of the ancient Roman era. Under normal circumstances, there will never be a name like 'Matthew'. "
"In the history before it was changed, in 788 AD, Xiuneus traveled to the East and arrived at the Anxi Duhufu almost at the same time as the Dharma Realm."
"At that time, the Tubo was powerful and controlled the Hexi Corridor. With the help of the Tang military attache and the eminent monk who returned from Tianzhu, these two special identities were able to detour from Uighur and return to Chang'an."
"Even if the monk of the Dharma Realm got help from Tang officials and monks from all over the world because of his identity, it took several years to arrive at Chang'an from the Anxi Protectorate."
"Xunaius, on the other hand, was completely counted as a person of unknown origin. He couldn't take the Uighur route and could only go through the original Hexi Corridor. As a result, he was kidnapped by the Tibetans and used as a slave. That was the darkest time in his life. "
"Later the Tubo besieged Qiuci, and Xiuneus was a member of the slave cannon fodder at that time. In 808 AD, Anxi and the Uyghur coalition annihilated the Tubo expeditionary army, and he was also saved."
"This is also why in the original history, the protagonist of the book he wrote, encountered something evil, and was saved by a mysterious person who claimed to be the Holy Shield when he was about to die. And among this group of people, there are easterners, some westerners, and each other. Harmony."
"After being rescued, Xiunaius went to Chang'an. When Tang Xianzong was in power, he managed the country well and knew people well, and once made the gradually declining Tang Dynasty rise, and later generations were called Yuanhe Zhongxing."
"As a rare Fulong person, who is literate and proficient in the Tang culture, and his experience is amazing enough, Tang Xianzong asked his historical museum to compose and record the details of Fulong."
"In ancient times, people in the Yan Kingdom were called by their surname and official position. However, Xiuneus' surname was too long, and he claimed to be from Rome, so he took its pronunciation and called him Matthew."
"As an admirer of Tang Dynasty culture, Xiuneus finally changed his name to Matthew after returning to China."
