Chapter 93: Worship under the Moon
Chapter 93: Moon worship
I heard that when there are meteors, I wish the most effective. How could Xiao Li miss this opportunity: "Prince, there are meteors! Hurry up, hurry up. Make a wish with me!"
As she said that, she hurriedly hugged her hands in front of her chest, closed her eyes gently, and made the wish in her heart that she had longed for her life. At this time, Huangfu Haotian, who was behind her, quickly imitated her appearance, clasped her hands together and hugged her chest, and closed her eyes to make the wish in her heart.
After the two of them opened their eyes again, Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but turn Xiao Li's shoulders and asked her with a smile: "Can you tell me what wish you made?"
But Xiao Li suddenly smiled mischievously at him: "I heard that if the wish you made is said directly, it may not work." Then, his eyes lit up again and he leaned into his eyes and asked, "What about you? Can you tell me what wish you made?"
But when Huangfu Haotian smiled unhappily, he suddenly reached out to rub her start: "Didn't you just say that the wish you made will not work if it says it? Why are you asking me again now? Of course, I won't tell you!"
But he didn't expect that Xiao Li actually acted coquettishly at him at this time: "Well~ Prince, please tell me it. I really want to know what wish you made."
Huangfu Haotian frowned at her helplessly: "Okay, okay, I will tell you that the wish I just made is... the same as you. I and Ali are two people with the same heart, don't you?"
Tell...it's really good at fooling people!
Xiao Li couldn't help rolling her eyes at him as soon as she heard this. But forget it, since he really didn't want to say it, she shouldn't pursue it too much.
Even so, it was so sweet that it was like eating honey in Xiao Li's heart.
He raised a smile and saw her smiling at Huangfu Haotian, "Prince, it's getting late, why don't we go back here." Speaking of this, she suddenly thought of Qin Jian and couldn't help but sigh at Huangfu Haotian: "Oh, it's already this time, and Qin Jian has not caught up with her. I don't know if something happened to her halfway?" Yes, I haven't seen her yet. Could she be lost at this night, right?
When Xiao Li thought of this, what else could he have to do to stay here. He quickly took Huangfu Haotian's hand and hurriedly walked back.
But Huangfu Haotian smiled gently at her: "Don't worry, Qin Jian and Qingfeng Mai are taken care of, so nothing should happen."
Yes! After hearing what he said, Xiao Li realized that at this time it was not only Qin Jian, but also Qingfeng Mai, who usually followed Huangfu Haotian every day, did not follow him.
Since that's the case, she doesn't have to worry too much. So she looked up at Huangfu Haotian and smiled: "Okay, why don't we just walk back slowly."
Huangfu Haotian lowered his head and smiled at her: "Okay, as long as you want, I will do whatever you want." Then he gently held her little hand gently: "Let's go, I will walk back with you."
The night is indeed beautiful. However, in this quiet night, I let my beloved hold my little hand and walk slowly among the soft and fragrant dry grass. The feeling made Xiao Li's heart even sweeter.
Before he knew it, there were already a faint light of flames in front of him. Xiao Li couldn't help but look up and looked at Huangfu Haotian and smiled: "In a while, we will be here."
But Huangfu Haotian smiled faintly and said, "Why, are you a little reluctant to leave? Are you separated from me? Otherwise, let's go there for a walk?"
"Tsk! There are all such people! I think the person who thinks so is probably the prince, right?" Although he said that, Xiao Li's smiling face turned red again without realizing it.
"Let's go!" Huangfu Haotian didn't argue, but directly pulled her hand and walked in another direction.
As he walked, something suddenly seemed to be heard in front of him. Xiao Li held his breath and listened carefully, but felt that the sound seemed to be a woman's cry. But at this time, how could there be a woman's crying here?
No, listen to that sound, how do you feel... it looks like the sound of a piano and a sword?
After listening carefully, Xiao Li confirmed that the sob crying sound that came with the wind was indeed from Qin Jian. Even she couldn't help but panic, and quickly broke away from Huangfu Haotian's hand and followed the sound anxiously.
"Qinjian... Where are you?" Xiao Li shouted Qinjian's name while running. It was not until she asked her to cross a not-high grass beam that she saw several figures behind her.
I saw those people, who were placing wine, meat and fragrance tables under the moonlight, and then knelt side by side, as if they were worshiping something. And among the group, the only woman, not the piano and sword, would it be?
Seeing this situation, Xiao Li had already guessed eight or nine points without asking. For a moment, her heart suddenly sank.
As she walked over quickly, she spoke in a deep voice behind everyone: "What are you doing here?"
After hearing this, everyone turned around quickly. When they saw that the person coming was Xiao Li, they couldn't help but get up from the ground in panic, came to Xiao Li to greet him and said, "Join the Marshal!"
"Get up." Xiao Li didn't mean to blame them, but seeing this situation suddenly made her mood become a little heavier.
However, when she saw the people in front of her, her face was stunned: "Qingfeng, Ma Yi? Why are you two here too?" When she turned her head and saw Qin Jian, who was wiping her tears, suddenly, Xiao Li's heart softened again: "Qin Jian, haven't you been following the prince all the time? Why have you all been here at this moment?"
Qin Jian wiped away his tears, and then lowered his head and walked to Xiao Li's side and replied, "Miss, I originally planned to go with you, but later, Brother Ma Yi and the others said that I wanted to come here for a walk, so I followed them. Unexpectedly, after I got here, I met this soldier who set up an incense table here to pay tribute to the dead... When I saw it, I couldn't help but suddenly remembered the fifth brother, so I..." Speaking of this, two lines of clear tears were shed in Qin Jian's eyes.
"Oh..." Looking at Qin Jian, Xiao Li's heart couldn't help but feel sad. However, she could only stretch out her hands, gently hug her into her arms, and gently pat her behind her with her hands to show comfort.
At this time, Huangfu Haotian had arrived later. Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Although this battle was ultimately my Ling army won. However, this war is still ruthless after all."
"Prince...see Prince..." When everyone heard his voice, they hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
But Huangfu Haotian suddenly waved his hand at them, and then said, "When the army returns to the border town, I will definitely order a ritual for the dead souls to overcome them to escape from the sea of suffering as soon as possible and be reincarnated as human beings."
As soon as Huangfu Haotian finished speaking, a figure suddenly knelt down at him: "The prince is kind and the heart of the bodhisattva, I am here to serve those dead brothers, thank you prince!"
When Huangfu Haotian saw this person, he was dressed as an ordinary soldier and couldn't help but say, "Get up and talk back." After the man got up from the ground, Huangfu Haotian asked again, "What's your name? Who is it? Why do you think of celebrating the dead souls here?"
The man clasped his fists at Huangfu Haotian and said, "Go back to the prince, Wang Gensheng, who is originally from the border town, his family lives in the First Lianchi."
"Oh, so that's it." Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but feel sad when he heard this, and said, "Thinking about the days ago, my first company of border towns was once under the Iron Cavalry of the Mirror Army. I believe you and your family have suffered a lot, right?"
But after hearing Huangfu Haotian's words, Wang Gensheng's expression inevitably showed a look of dismay on his face. After that, he suddenly looked up at Mingyue in the sky and sighed: "Who said no?"
Then, he said: "Your prince is a prince, and you may never understand the lives of ordinary people like us. But if you say that, when there was no war before, the young family was together, and their lives were equally harmonious. Although the young person had no parents since childhood, fortunately there were a few hectares of thin fields at home. In addition, the young person had a good hand in his hand since childhood, so the money he earned from hunting every month was enough for my family to live a good life of food and clothing."
"That's great." Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but nodded.
He continued: "Last year, the third aunt in the village took charge of her and married a girl from the West Village as her wife. This summer, she got another fat son. The family was happy, but they didn't expect that the Jingjun suddenly came to my border town. In just a few days, they occupied the first pool of the little one who survived. Poor my fellow villagers, when they met the Jingjun, they were almost at a loss. In this way, many people died under their tyranny."
When I said this, the dignified seven-foot man in front of me finally couldn't help but shed tears on his face.
"Ah..." After sighing, he heard him speak again: "Looking at the Jing army so rampant in our home, how could the young man with blood be able to withstand this breath? So he organized the young and strong people in the village to go to the border town to join the general, and decided to fight for our homeland with the Tartars in the Jing Kingdom to the end."
"Well..." Huangfu Haotian nodded admiringly, and then frowned: "But, in this way, what about your family? If you leave, how will they survive?"
But the man suddenly shook his head and threw all the tears that had flowed into the wind: "What the prince is saying. In order to join the army, the young people had to arrange the old, weak, women and children in the village together, and then escorted them out of Lianchi and went south to escape."
"So that's it..." Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but feel moved: "Although this is a difficult situation for me, this battle is really difficult for you ordinary people. I have let you suffer so much, so how can I bear it in my heart!"
"The prince is so serious!" But when the man heard this, he quickly saluted Huangfu Haotian and said, "The border town is the home where we rely on for survival. Since the Jing army Tartars want to invade our home, even if we want to break our bones, we must drive those Jing army out of here!"
Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this.
But the man continued, "Now, the Emperor will pay off the will of the heart. The Tartars in the Mirror Kingdom finally let us drive them away. But..." Speaking of this, two lines of tears suddenly shed on his face: "It's just that this battle was won. But most of the brothers who came out with the young man that day could never go back."
Having said this, everyone present couldn't help but shed tears.
He suddenly sighed to the sky again, "There are my wife and children. Now, I don't know where they are? Can we meet again in this life..."
"Miss..." At this time, Qin Jian, who was standing beside Xiao Li, suddenly pulled her: "This elder brother said that his name is Wang Gensheng."
"Well, I heard it." Xiao Li nodded.
"But he also mentioned Aunt Third, and he also said that he also had a wife and a child less than half a year old..." After Qin Jian's repeated reminders, Xiao Li suddenly remembered something.
"Oh, right!" She suddenly said in surprise: "You said your name is Wang Gensheng, and you know a woman named San Auntie, right?"
The man was stunned when he heard this, and quickly saluted Xiao Li and said, "Does the marshal know my third aunt?"
Seeing him say this, Qin Jian couldn't help but walk up and said to him: "It's not just that I've seen it. If the marshal hadn't asked for it, it would be hard to say whether you could see your wife and children again in the future!"
"What the girl means..." But when Qin Jian suddenly smiled at him, "But don't worry, when the marshal led the army north, he happened to meet your wife and third aunt. When they saw that they were bullied, the marshal took action to save them. Later, the marshal found a way to place them in the local area. After two days, when the army returned to Beijing, you just follow us. At that time, the marshal guarantees that you can find your relatives. What are you going to do?"
"What the girl said is true?" Wang Gensheng couldn't help but feel excited when he heard Qin Jian's words, and he was even more unbelievable.
When I turned around, I saw Xiao Li nodding and smiling at him.
After confirming, Wang Gensheng suddenly walked to Xiao Li, and then knelt down at her with a "splash": "Marson, you have no way to repay the villain's great kindness and great virtue in this life. Even if you are a caring for the next life, you must repay your kindness!"
Xiao Li hurriedly stepped forward and helped him up: "Brother Wang is so serious!"
