Kunlun one millet

Chapter 359

Conferring a mountain forest as a blessed place to a sect that has contributed to the country's inheritance has become a practice as early as the Tianxia Dynasty.Moreover, the canonization is usually the original location of the Zongmen Taoist Temple, and it is nothing more than adding an imperial decree to approve it, or building another palace and pavilion.

Fortunately, most of the Taoist temples of the Xiuxian Sect are located in the mountains far away from human habitation. There is no tax income, and the canonization will not damage the state affairs.
In the early years, in order to win over various sects and ensure that the immortal cultivators would be used by them, Xiong Guo once gave a large award, but he knew that He Qingchen was in charge, so he made the specific canonization clear and decreed.

Regarding this matter, the three elders of Chiyun did not refuse. For them, the world will soon return to stability, and if they can settle down the many soldiers and civilians under the rule of Chiyundu, it is time for them to retire.

The three elders of Chiyun took the initiative to express their acceptance of the canonization of Xiongguo and the acceptance of Cangwuling, so that each other's hearts can be reassured.

And when Chiyundu's household registration atlas was sent to the emperor's capital, the emperor summoned a group of ministers and immediately decreed that the prefectures and counties under Chiyundu's original rule would be exempted from taxes for one year.In addition, officials were also sent to the newly captured Dongyang Kingdom to check the population and restore all industries. They even asked the wealthy families to release their slaves and maidservants, and even allowed the local powerful clans to move away separately, and demolished various fortresses.

Although some wealthy families in some places are dissatisfied with this move, Xiong Kingdom now almost completely occupies the entire eastern land, and the army is also in various places to wipe out the remnants of Dongyang Kingdom.

And these news, almost without exception, spread into the new capital that had been besieged for many days.

Facing this fortified city that had been built for more than ten years, the army of the Xiong Kingdom did not launch a strong attack except to repel a few light cavalry that broke through the encirclement. They even opened a market outside the city and allowed the people in the city to go out to buy food to satisfy their hunger. Open the door and let people go.

At the beginning, Dongyang Kingdom, which could not hold on to it, refused to let the common people out of the city, but later on the food in the city gradually became short of food, and there was even a tragedy of changing children to eat.

As a last resort, the small imperial court of Dongyang Kingdom, which guards the lonely city alone, can only open the city gate every five days to allow the people to go out.

It was said to be buying food, but almost none of the people who escaped from the city turned back. It was not because Xiong Guoqiang stayed behind, but because no one wanted to be trapped in the city.As for those who are still willing to return to the new capital, they are all guards who are ordered to dress up as civilians to buy food.

"This Luo Yi, even in this situation, still refuses to surrender?"

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Mr. Huai Ming snorted coldly and looked at the new capital in the distance.

General Song, who was in charge of commanding Xiongguo's troops, said: "Recently, we have sent letters to the city many times to persuade them to surrender, and we also asked those who returned to the city to report carefully, but unfortunately there was no reply. But Luo Yi seems to be particularly afraid of this. Those who have been out of the city Sergeant, often never see again next time."

"Killed by him?" Mr. Huai Ming shook his head and laughed, "It's really the same as before, ruthless."

While a few people were talking, a soldier led Wei Xiuwen to come: "General, I have brought you here."

General Song got up to greet him: "General Wei, you have been exhausted by boats and cars, and you still have to come to this dangerous place on the front line."

"The general of the defeated army is ashamed to be favored." Today, Wei Xiuwen has gray beard and hair, and is dressed in commoner clothes. He is no longer as high-spirited as before.

"I have invited General Wei to come here this time, and I have something important to ask." General Song said after some pleasantries, "Now that the Lord of Dongyang, Luo Yi, is sticking to Xinxin, I hope to invite General Wei to visit the city in person. "

Wei Xiuwen's complexion changed slightly: "Does General Song want me to be a lobbyist to persuade you to surrender?"

"That's right." General Song nodded and said, "I know that this matter is difficult, Luo Yi is likely to go mad and kill General Wei. So this time, the three elders of Chiyun will accompany General Wei to go, so there is no danger."

Wei Xiuwen looked at the third elder Chiyun who was standing or sitting in the tent, his face was even more ashamed, and he couldn't say a word.

Mr. Huai Ming crossed his arms across his chest: "Wei Xiuwen, do you still remember me? Back then you took 2000 people from Luoyin Ferry to Dongling Village and killed countless soldiers and civilians in Chiyundu. This blood owes you How are you going to pay it back?"

Wei Xiuwen was speechless, he also participated in the suppression of Chiyundu back then, and caused a lot of killings.It was also because of this credit that the imperial court sent him there when Chi Yun in Xingluo County caused chaos.

Now that Dongyang's power is exhausted, although he was not a prisoner because he surrendered in time, there are always people who want to seek revenge on him, and Chi Yundu is one of them.

"General Song, you said at the beginning that you would let the next family go. I wonder if this still counts?" Wei Xiuwen knew very well that now Luo Yi couldn't listen to the persuasion to surrender. Once he went, he might only have a dead end.

In the past ten years or so, he has led troops to fight Chi Yundu several times in bloody battles, with new and old grudges. Maybe the three elders wanted to bring him into the city to die in order to avenge their past revenge.

"This is the pardon document sent by the emperor just now." General Song took it out and handed it to the other party for review, and said at the same time: "But General Wei can rest assured that I don't want you to die. The reason why I think of General Wei is because It’s because Master Huaiyu entrusted him with enlightenment in a dream.”

"Really Huaiyu?" Wei Xiuwen didn't understand.

"Oh, in your place, it should be called Marquis Zhenming?" General Song said with a smile.

"It's Zhao Mi?" Wei Xiuwen was surprised and delighted.

"Realist Huaiyu once said that General Wei is loyal to his duties. If he can realize it in time and abandon innocence, he will be a famous general for a while." General Song said: "Realist Huaiyu also told me that it is difficult for Luo Yi to persuade me now. In the past, Wei Xiuwen of the old department, understood it with reason and moved it with emotion, so there may be a turning point."

Wei Xiuwen looked at the pardon document in his hand, and sat there blankly in a daze. He used to work with Zhao Mi, and he had formed some friendship.Regarding the drastic change in Dongsheng Capital, Wei Xiuwen actually didn't really believe that Zhao Mi was the culprit, but because of the general situation, he didn't dare to speak out to refute it.

Walking all the way from Huaxu Kingdom to Dongyang Kingdom, Wei Xiuwen gradually saw the true face of his former chief, and also gradually understood how the country was declining step by step.

But Wei Xiuwen didn't say a word. He had persuaded Zhao Mi to retreat bravely in order to protect his family, but he himself failed to do so. In the end, when Dongyang Kingdom fell, he almost wanted to be buried with him.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Mi reappeared now, even though he did not appear in front of his eyes, but recommended Wei Xiuwen to persuade Luo Yi to surrender, which still made him feel very ironic.

"You... are not only here to protect me, but also to avenge the past, right?" Wei Xiuwen looked at the three elders of Chiyun.

Mr. Huai Ming took the lead to say: "It's good if you understand. We Chi Yundu had no grievances or enmities with Luo Yi back then, but in the end we were massacred because of his slanderous words. New and old grudges should be settled together!"

Mr. Zhanming said: "Now that Dongyang's power is exhausted, Luo Yi is powerless to defend the isolated city. Why bother to drag down hundreds of thousands of people in the city? If he is willing to surrender, it will be the luck of the people."

What if Luo Yi refused to surrender?Wei Xiuwen didn't ask much, and finally agreed to go to the new capital. General Song sent someone to shoot a letter to the city to report, and Wei Xiuwen, along with the three elders of Chiyun, flew directly to the direction of Miyagi on the cloud.

Before landing, a few figures in the palace city flew up into the air to stop them. They were the few cultivators who were still willing to serve Dongyang Kingdom.

"What? Today, do you still want to fight to the end?" Mr. Huai Ming strode across the air, the flames raging.

The monks on the opposite side looked at each other, knowing that the defeat was unavoidable, and they had no intention of fighting, so they had to get out of the way and allow each other to fall.

Today, the palace city is also in decline. It can be seen that there are still traces of damage on the walls. Presumably, someone once tried to break into the palace city.

The third elder Chiyun brought Wei Xiuwen to the depths of the palace city, most of the officials and palace people had already fled, and there were only a few people left in the hall, which seemed particularly deserted and lonely.

Luo Yi was dressed in a military uniform, sitting on the throne with his sword in hand, with a haggard appearance, as if he had only his last breath left, like a tiger at the end of the road, his eyes were almost bleeding.

Seeing Luo Yi, Wei Xiuwen did not salute, but cupped his hands and asked, "How is the general?"

Luo Yi let out a few deep laughs: "Okay, great, thanks to you unfaithful people, I am where I am today."

"General, now that the general situation is over, if we continue to resist, it will only increase the casualties." Wei Xiuwen persuaded.

Luo Yi raised his eyes and looked at the three elders behind Wei Xiuwen: "Aren't you ashamed to say that? If I surrender, these three people will immediately rush up and tear me apart."

Mr. Huai Ming took a step forward, furious: "Luo Yi, I can tear you apart now, believe it or not!"

"Which one of you would dare?!" Luo Xixian, who was also in the palace, drew out his sword, his sword aura unstoppable, scattered in all directions, leaving a series of sword marks between the beams and pillars of the palace.

"Junior, it's up to you?" Mr. Huai Ming's eyes were blazing, and blue smoke was emitting from the bricks and stones under his feet.

"Junior brother, wait a minute." The blindfolded Mr. Jing Ming dissuaded: "Luo Xixian, Zhao Mi told us in advance that if you are willing to surrender here, you can save your life. As for your father, we will not kill him, but imprison him In the mountains, away from the world.”

"Zhao Mi?" Luo Xixian was stunned when he heard this, and then he felt humiliated in his heart. He raised his brows angrily, pointed his sword at the other party, and said sharply: "I don't need him to take pity on me! Tell him, if you have the ability, just do it." Come see me in person!"

Mr. Zhanming sighed softly: "Their father and son are already terminally ill and hopelessly ill."

Seeing this, Wei Xiuwen quickly persuaded: "General, even if you don't think about the people, please think about yourself!"

Luo Yi looked at his former subordinate, and slowly stood up with his sword: "You don't understand, this road is destined to be irreversible. If I surrender, I will be completely slaughtered by others, just like you have to be obediently by them now." Sent to persuade to surrender."

Mr. Zhan Ming said: "Until this moment, are you still trying to sow discord?"

"You three, do you really think that with a few words from me back then, Yang Jingxi could be persuaded to kill Chi Yun?" Luo Yi sneered, "It was a dead end from the beginning, either you died or I am dead, why should I think so highly of myself? I am just defeated today, and you take refuge in Xiongguo, do you really think it will end well?"

Mr. Jing Ming shook his head and said, "You still don't understand."

"It's over?" Mr. Huai Ming couldn't bear it anymore, the flames all over his body were soaring, lighting up the inside of the palace, and he approached the throne step by step: "You should also pay the price for all the things in the past!"

……

Sitting on a huge rock, Zhao Mi looked at a vast desert, where rolling sand dunes buried ruined palaces and mountains.

This place used to be the location of the Six Palaces of Youfeng. In the past, the gods and gods of the Six Palaces were all accomplished leftists. They built caves in Puchang Mountain and recruited disciples.Long before the founding of the Tianxia Dynasty, the Sixth Palace of Youfeng was already the overlord of the northern border, with more than [-] string-controlling soldiers under his command.

However, in the early years of the Tianxia Dynasty, there were also a lot of talents. As one of the founders of the ceremonial officials, Xiao Yuluo was not only proficient in scientific rituals, but also a general with a strategic mind.He was in charge of attacking the northern border. Over the past ten years, he had been attacking and defending Yixing, and finally broke through the Six Palaces of Youfeng in Puchang Mountain in one fell swoop, and summoned the generals to kill the gods of the Six Palaces.

Afterwards, Xiao Yuluo sent troops to encircle all the tribes in northern Xinjiang that belonged to Puchang Mountain, and ordered tens of thousands of people to be beheaded. He also sent down fire from the sky to turn the 10-kilometer land of abundant water and grass in Puchang Mountain into a desert.

Right and wrong, let the world comment, the world just silently observes what happened in the past, without relatives and selflessness.Zhao Shu's Qi communicates with Yin and Yang, and follows the sky and the earth. He is also silent, reaching the state of selflessness and forgetting form.

Amidst the dust and dust, Zhao Mi suddenly let out a soft sigh.Lu Wangji sensed a change in the climate of the heaven and earth, and it rained in the desert.

"What happened?" Lu Wangji, who was protecting the Dharma in the distance, asked via voice transmission.

"Luo Xixian is dead." Zhao Mi said, "I entrusted a dream to You Xiong Guojun and the three elders of Chiyun, asking them to persuade Luo Yi to surrender. Unfortunately, Luo Xixian refused to give in, and desperately wanted to save his father."

"The strong are the ones who die." Lu Wangji's tone was cold. Perhaps in her view, the Luo family and his son were just seeking their own death.

"I was just thinking that this result might be better." Zhao Mi said, "It was my pleading for mercy that made Luo Xixian unwilling to be humiliated. He would rather die than accept favors. In this way, we can avoid The army attacked Xindu hard, causing serious damage to the army, and also affected hundreds of thousands of innocent people, and it will also make Chiyun three elders and one revenge."

"You have seen through Luo Xixian, and you have a clear understanding of the evolution of the world." Lu Wangji slowly approached with the piano in his arms.

"That's right." Zhao Mi looked at the deserted scene in front of him: "Since Luo Xixian is dead, I will also settle a fate."

"Are you going to fly away?" Lu Wangji asked.

"I still have some deficiencies." Zhao Mi said clearly: "My cultivation base is different from others, and I must return to the sect in order to obtain the ten thousand dharma."

Although Zhao Mi said so, no matter what method he encounters now, he can quickly comprehend it thoroughly and grasp it easily.What to do in the future is to settle the worldly burdens one by one, and then take the final step.
