I am a fairy in the world of mortals

Chapter 117 The sound of the cemetery
"General!"

"He is an unparalleled hero!" Cheng Xu took a sip of the wine in his glass and said with great certainty.

Li Lang was not surprised when he heard this. Cheng Xu was a subordinate of Shen Xinghai, so such recognition was unusual.

"He is indeed a great hero and a great hero." Xiao Zhu also intervened at this time.

Zhou Bo slapped the table: "What does this have to do with you? Eat the food!"

Xiao Zhu immediately lowered his head and acted like a rice cooker without any thoughts or emotions. He had no intention of justifying his previous remarks.

The rule of survival in the workplace is: 'Everything the leader says is right. If something is wrong, it means the subordinates have not done their job properly'.

Xiao Zhu is just an ordinary person and cannot live a life of speaking his mind.

However, Xiao Zhu's words of approval caught Li Lang's attention.

Li Lang checked out Shen Xinghai after hearing Tianshan Yue mention it for the first time.

Conglongzhigong, guarding the western frontier, suppressed the barbarians in the western regions and could not raise their heads for a while, and did not dare to violate the Daqian border in the slightest.

From the perspective of serving the country and the people, Li Lang did not want such a general who guarded the country to be really related to the death of Patriarch Yun Xue.

It would be best, as Tianshan Yue said, that he and Patriarch Yunxue are incomparable. They are both the twins of Daqian in the past, with brilliant scenery and great pride.

"It has been seven years in Baiyu City, and no one has died of cold or starvation in seven years!" Cheng Xu said.

As soon as he said this, even the people sitting at the two tables next to him fell silent.

"What a man!" A drinker drank a full glass of wine and bowed to the west.

"If there were a true Bodhisattva in the world, he would be able to eliminate hunger and cold every year." Li Lang said with emotion.

The land of the Western Region is a land of bitter cold. Even the wealthy Yangzhou Prefecture cannot guarantee that no one will freeze or starve to death every year, but the White Jade City governed by General Shen Xinghai has achieved this.

If what Cheng Xu said is true, then even if this Shen Xinghai has 'the world' in mind, Li Lang would be happy to see it come to fruition.

He is not an ancient man whose thoughts are bound and restricted. This supreme position in the world is originally occupied by the virtuous and capable, and it is by no means a private property.

He had already seen through the stench of blood theory and scorned it.

As for what is wrong with personal ethics, we have to look at it separately.

Did Li Shimin kill his brother and imprison his father, did this prevent him from becoming a wise king?

However, Li Lang's mood only agitated for a few seconds before he calmed down again.

This is just Cheng Xu's side of the story. What's more, even if what he said is true, it may be a selective truth.

For example, in order to prevent someone from freezing or starving to death, kill them with a knife in advance.

Such ridiculous things may be easily criticized in novels, but in reality, there is often no violation.

Li Lang only needs to go through more people and inquire more about what the facts are, and he will understand.

"Come and eat vegetables! Eat vegetables!"

"Let's chat while we eat." Li Lang stretched out his hand to guide Cheng Xu to continue the conversation.

But after chatting for a while, I realized that there was really nothing to talk about.

Whenever this old boy mentions Shen Xinghai, he is full of reverence, like a fanatical believer.

The meal lasted from noon to evening, and Li Lang never cheated on anything.

"I forgot to ask Brother Cheng! When you return to Beijing this time, are you here to report on your work?" Li Lang asked, smelling of alcohol.

Cheng Xu lay half-lying on the table and said, "No! I... I followed the general's orders and came first to visit an old friend's grave and buy some sacrificial supplies."

Li Lang's heart moved: "Can you tell me who that old friend is?"

Cheng Xu said: "You are familiar with this man, Master Yunxue... Hiccup, Master Yunxue's tomb is in the pine forest in the north of the city."

Li Lang suddenly thought of a way to definitely meet the Queen. As mentioned before, the entire capital is a magic weapon in the hands of the Queen.

In this case, she should be able to roughly control the capital.

And some places must be the places that the Queen attaches most importance to.

"Check out!" Li Lang shouted.

The lame and blind girl came again. She counted the money for the drinks and said, "Sir, it's three or two dollars in total."

This is not expensive, although the same price in Yangzhou Prefecture is enough to eat a decent table of meals in an ordinary restaurant, but you also have to look at where this is.

The capital is large and difficult to live in.

Even for a meal, the price is much higher than elsewhere.

Li Lang happily gave the money.

He also gave an extra five taels, and then said to the lame girl: "Please give me a few more bottles of wine so that my friends can eat and drink well."

Zhou Bo raised his head from the table and waved his hand; "No more! No more... I can't drink any more!"

Li Lang looked at him with a smile: "Be good! You can still drink, you're not drunk yet!"

Zhou Bo shook his head and wanted to get up.

Li Lang's palms were already on his shoulders: "Don't ask me to say it a second time, okay? You're not drunk, you can still drink. As for when you are really drunk, it depends on you."

Zhou Bo was so excited that he sobered up.

Then quickly assess the situation.

"Yes! I can still drink, I can still drink three pots... little sister! Bring the wine, I want to go back with a few friends until we are drunk." Zhou Bo said with a big wave of his hand.

Li Lang let go of Zhou Bo, left the small restaurant alone, and headed straight for the pine forest in the north of the city.

Just when he got up in the morning, Li Lang had already found a rough map of the capital and memorized the rough directions.

Of course, this map is nothing new.

There is nothing on this map about the height, thickness, internal structure of the city wall, the width and height of the gates between various towns, the depth of several rivers in the city, the specific directions of the waterways flowing through, etc.

Basically it can only be regarded as a 'travel guide'.

For Li Lang, it was enough.

After driving quickly all the way, Li Lang arrived at the pine forest at sunset.

This pine forest belongs to the royal family's private garden and is not open to the public. However, the guards are not very tight. Li Lang easily passed through the checkpoints set up by the patrolling soldiers and entered the depths of the pine forest.

In the deepest part of the dense and eerie pine forest, there is a maple forest.

It is still summer, and the leaves of these maple trees have already turned red, and the fiery red strings hang on the trees, swaying like fire.

Li Lang instantly remembered that Patriarch Yunxue loved maple leaves and maple trees the most.

In the maple forest, there is a small, not grand, but very clean, unmarked grave, standing there. It can be seen that people often come to take care of it, and there is not a trace of weeds on the tomb.

Falling maple leaves sometimes fall on the tomb, and the night gradually falls, adding a bit of extra romance to this lonely tomb.

Li Lang first walked to the unknown grave, bowed with his hands together, and then recited the 'Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra'. After reciting the sutra three times, he took out the jade flute from his sleeve.

Slender fingers pressed on the jade flute, and the song "Tomb of Infatuation" floated out. The sad and beautiful music gradually spread to the entire maple forest and spread to the pine forest beyond.

This song is the theme song of the new Tianlong in 2013. It is a typical theme song of a bad movie.

As soon as this song came out, grief had a home and infatuation had a tomb.
