Li Xia held her breath and took a few steps forward. Some of her legs and feet were weak and her head was a little dizzy.
He didn't expect that it would be so difficult to become superstitious.
It feels like after digging out the phrase "Da Chu Xing, King Chen Sheng" from the belly of a fish, someone pointed at Chen Sheng and said, "You lied to me."
He is really not good at this kind of thing, but he is willing to learn and practice.
"Qu Liang, he has really been reincarnated. He will not come back, but I can see him. He is in a... very good place. There, he can fly into the sky and sit in something like a big bird.
,I can see the clouds outside the window..."
Asha turned around and looked at Li Xia's expression.
She could feel the slight tremble in his voice when he spoke, and could feel the mystery in his heart again.
"He lives in a very high building. Standing by the window, he can see the sky, which is full of haze..."
Asha didn't understand, but didn't ask. She just stood there and listened until Li Xia stopped talking.
"What happens after that? What...is he still doing?"
"bath."
"bath?"
"Yes, hot water will come out when you turn on the faucet..."
"Are you not lying to me?" Asha asked again: "Where do people go after they die? Can I go find him?"
"No. It can't be found there. It will take generations to come..."
"Generations?"
Li Xia fell silent, he was not good at these superstitions after all.
Only the mad woman in front of him didn't care about the countless loopholes in his words. She only cared about her dead husband.
After a long time, Li Xia shook his head and murmured: "Let's try again next time. Goodbye, Asha."
He turned around and walked towards the county government office.
"Hades?"
"Huh?" Li Xia turned around and said, "Yes, King Ming is born."
Asha shook her head again and murmured: "Pluto?"
She finally left.
"Sure enough, it won't work." Li Xia smiled bitterly.
"Tell me, why on earth does Feiyu have to deal with those Miao barbarians? What a wicked sect, others should avoid it for fear of doing so."
Asha's arrival that night still alarmed Jiang Chun. He put on his clothes and stood by the window to look at it for a while, then said to Mou Zhu, "What if some snakes or insects come back with them, how scary it would be."
Mou Zhu was also afraid of this, so she nodded in agreement and looked around the room with fear in her eyes.
"It seems that Lieutenant Li also had scruples and asked Qiao'er to sleep in Di'er's house."
"This young man is so courageous, he dares to provoke anything." Jiang Chun shook his head, returned to the quilt, and said: "But let's not talk about it, the rituals performed by the Taoist priest are really useful, you see, even the Miao witches don't dare to
Come in again."
"Yes, thanks to the official's thoughtfulness."
"If Feiyu wants to go to Dali, let him go. I will transfer him when he comes back, so that he won't get into any trouble..."
Three days after meeting Asha, Li Xia didn't wait for her to come over, so he asked Xiong Shan again.
"Going back to the old village?"
"Yes. She seemed to be in better spirits. She told her father that she wanted to go back to her old village, but then she disappeared."
"All right……"
For Li Xia, things like Miao witchcraft are just occasional embellishments, but they are not urgent.
It’s not too late to think about how to conquer those tribes in the deep mountains and old forests after they have had contact with them...
He spent most of his time training and managing troops step by step, and preparing to go south to Dali.
Drills take place day after day at Qingfu Military Academy.
On February 12, near the latrine next to the camp, an old man named "Gong Ze" loaded the manure onto a cart and pulled the cart toward the fields.
As he walked, he stopped by the road, looked in the direction of the weapons workshop not far away, and squinted his eyes.
"No way?"
Gong Ze thought for a while, then suddenly poured the manure from the cart onto the roadside, turned around, and strode back to the camp pit.
He waited until evening until Yang Ben came to relieve himself.
…
"Yang Ben, have you finished squatting?! If you don't go to eat, I will eat your food."
"Hong Shijiang, please leave first, I don't feel well."
"Okay, I'll leave some food for you..."
Yang Ben frowned, waited for a while, and finally heard the knock on the door.
He opened the door and saw Gong Ze, so he welcomed him down.
"Let me tell you news." Yang Ben said: "From now on, you won't be able to collect the excrement whenever you want. It has to be collected uniformly. It is said that a composting workshop will be built..."
Gong Ze interrupted impatiently: "Thieves Peijun, are we here to collect the dung water?! Let me tell you, I seem to have seen Li Yong."
"sure?"
"Not sure, I only met him once a few years ago, who still remembers."
"where?"
"Weapons workshop."
Yang Ben asked: "Catch him back?"
"You can't catch him. I didn't expect Li Xia to train so many soldiers at first. Now I have to ask the captain to send someone." Gong Ze said: "I will continue to stare at him to see who else can be brought out."
Yang Ben nodded and said, "I'll prepare to steal a horse and leave tonight."
"That's it. Li Xia doesn't trust you anyway, so it won't be a pity if you leave. I'll replace you with someone else."
"Ah……"
After leaving the hut, Yang Ben did not go to eat immediately. Instead, he walked around the stables and took a look.
In the distance, he saw a man with shackled hands and feet feeding the horse.
…
"Hullegen! Come here."
"Here we come!" Hu Legen responded, dragging the shackles towards Yu Gong and Song He.
"Have you eaten yet?" Yu Bing said, "It's time to teach us Mongolian."
"did not eat."
"General Yu Bai, he has obviously eaten." A groom shouted loudly.
Yu Ging was furious, picked up the riding whip in his hand, and shouted: "Damn you!"
Hu Legen quickly knelt down and muttered.
"What did he say?" Yu Bing asked.
Song He said: "He said he confused 'had eaten' with 'didn't eat'."
"Gou Mengta, you are such a treacherous motherfucker, and you still want to lie to me."
"You were deceived by him once yesterday." Song He responded casually, staring not far away, "Who is that person?"
Yu Bing turned his head and looked at it, and said, "Yang Ben, have you forgotten? At that time, I wanted to be the boy who was exploring horses."
"It's him. Why did he come to our Majun side?"
Song He murmured and walked towards Yang Ben, only to see him turn around and walk away.
…
The next day, Gong Ze stood by the latrine again and said angrily: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"I went last night and was discovered by two generals." Yang Ben said, "I will go over again tonight to steal the horse and leave."
"Don't delay things." Xi Ze raised his finger and pointed at him.
"Um."
That night, Yang Ben returned to his dormitory and packed his luggage silently.
Everyone in his group was packing their luggage.
Shijiang Hong Ah Liu walked around twice and shouted: "Take all your belongings carefully. They are life-saving things on the battlefield."
"yes!"
Hong Ah Liu nodded with satisfaction and patted Yang Ben on the shoulder.
"Get your armor ready. We'll set out before dawn tomorrow. It's time for you to make a contribution and be promoted this time."
Yang Ben nodded and sneered secretly in his heart, "Do you think I'm rare?"
But that night he still did not steal the horse, nor did he tell Gong Ze about his upcoming trip south.
If he wants to fight another battle, then no matter who Li Yong or King Zhong is, he has to wait until he comes back from this battle...
