"I'm quite strong; but I haven't expected it. You can agree to me right away now." Xiao Shizhu smiled slightly disapprovingly, and looked at the firm expression between her eyebrows with interest, because of Yingying's attitude at this moment.
The praise on his face became a little heavier, and he slowly said in his mouth: "Anyway, life has been saved by you, so live well; as for my request, reply to me before you die or before you are reincarnated,
Just do it.”
"You are reunited by old friends, you can chat for yourself." Xiao Shizhu patted Ju Long's shoulder sitting in front of the bed and said, "I won't bother you anymore, I'll go and do my business." Then, he stretched out his arms and said
Twinkle and yawned a long time, turned around and walked out of the tent with his hands behind his back.
Listening carefully as his footsteps gradually faded away, until they disappeared, Yingying quickly turned her head towards Julong, with a blue face, and asked in a deep voice: "Prince, are you shaken? Are you already planning to surrender
?Have you completely given up resisting?".
As her voice began, a strong wind blew outside the tent, whirling the tarp of the tent.
"Yes." Ju Long pondered for a moment, and finally nodded. There was no pride or regret on his face, but it was very calm.
Yingying slowly closed her eyes when she heard the sound, opened her lips slightly and wanted to say something. In the end, she didn't say anything, but just sighed, and the frown brow also showed disappointment with this sigh.
"I just follow the way of heaven." After a moment, Ju Long said softly again, breaking the brief silence in the tent.
"The way of heaven is like a way of heaven." Yingying also muttered softly, then showed a disdainful smile on her face, and said slowly in a sarcastic tone: "From the world to the underworld, I have never seen any way of heaven! Some are just the prey of the weak.
”.
After saying that, she lamented again; while Ju Long remained silent, lowered his head slightly, staring at the scales on the snake's tail below his waist and staring at the scales on the snake's tail below his waist, dazed intently, wondering what he was thinking about.
"Crown Prince, I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup Xiao Shizhu gave you, or used some severe torture to force you to submit? But do you think your move is worthy of your father Gonggong? Is it worthy of the general who died in battle?
?Are you worthy of the people in Yingzhu City who were slaughtered by Xiao Shizhu?" After a pause, Yingying asked again with a trembling voice: "Did you forget that the Shuihu clan was exterminated by him?"
When Ju Long heard this, his whole body trembled slightly and his brows frowned.
"I haven't forgotten." After a while, a trace of sadness flashed in Ju Long's eyes, and his body shook again, and he whispered: "I watched him massacre with his own eyes. It was a heartbreaking memory, how could he forget it?
”.
"But no one is perfect, and the same is true for ghosts." He paused, slowly clenched his fists, and said, "I have observed it for several days and feel that Xiao Shizhu is indeed extraordinary; maybe you still have it.
I don't know that our people, the old, weak, sick and disabled, who were abandoned by my father without hesitation in order to ensure the victory of this battle, survived by our enemies.
It made me even more heartbroken.”
"It is precisely because of his kindness that not only the surrendered soldiers in our country are extremely respectful to him, but even the old, weak, sick and disabled relatives and friends who were abandoned by us are very supportive of him and voluntarily and spontaneously
He transported food and water for him and his soldiers." Ju Long showed awe and said loudly: "My father has been a prince in this underworld for thousands of years, and I have never seen any enemy against him.
He was convinced; this alone was not difficult to see that Xiao Shizhu was the real king, and he could achieve great things more than my father!"
Yingying was stunned for a moment when she heard this, wondering what kind of mental control technique was Long who had been hit by this princely qualifier? Why is he so disrespectful to his father today?
When she felt suspicious, her face looked even more ugly. She snorted heavily and asked in a cold and frosty voice: "How can a great thing be accomplished by killing innocent ghosts indiscriminately?"
"Killing innocent people indiscriminately? Aren't we going to kill innocent people indiscriminately? Didn't we kill many of his soldiers?" Prince Ju Long asked without thinking: "And for those who were left unanimously by my father.
For the abandoned people, the weak, sick and disabled, who let them die, aren’t we also killing innocent people indiscriminately?”
The look of suspicion between Yingying's eyebrows was that the more she listened, the more she became.
"Shut up." When Julong finished speaking, she was already furious and completely ignored the superiors and subordinates' ranks, and shouted angrily to Julong: "Isn't the king doing this to ensure that more citizens will not be massacred by the invaders?
Is it? And the elderly, weak, sick and disabled were left behind to drag down the Xiao family army. They should become martyrs! They should be proud of this!".
But the more I said this, the less confident I felt. In the end, the voice gradually became smaller, like the sound of a mosquito.
She was indeed the plan to withdraw the harbor from the first time when Gonggong had made a plan to withdraw the harbor from the first to agree. However, although Gonggong also agreed with this plan, he also decided that all the old people must be left behind in the coastal coastal towns and nearby coastal towns.
The weak, sick and disabled people ignored it, and with these hundreds of thousands of mouths, they dragged down the Xiao family army and Zhurong army.
Although Yingying was also very disgusted with this move, but on the one hand, this matter was a matter of Gonggong's determination. On the other hand, she was instilled with the King Yong since she came to the underworld and entered Sutianju, and was still a disciple of the saint.
The correct concept of "loyalty to the emperor and patriotism".
Therefore, even though she knew that Gonggong was a big mistake in doing this, Gonggong was her king and her boss after all. Under the influence of the idea that the king would never have the wrong way, she had no courage to question it at all.
The other party has no courage to deny the other party.
What she can do is to continue to carry out orders in an unyielding manner, believing that what Gonggong does is right.
"Don't expect Ju Long, who has always been respectful to her, retorted without being outdone: "This kind of behavior of thinking about the people and doing the opposite for victory is not equivalent to Xiao Shizhu's behavior.
Have you won the hearts of the people? You are a smart ghost. Have you ever thought about what if the Xiao family army did not give these people who were abandoned by us and did not take care of them? Aren’t we also killing innocent people in disguise?
Is it?".
As soon as these words were spoken, Yingying was speechless after being suffocated.
"Saint, my intention is decided." Yingying was muddy. After the two ghosts were silent for a moment, Ju Long calmed down his excitement a little, stood up and turned his back to Yingying and said, "I hope to follow Xiao Shizhu to make achievements and return a peaceful life in the ten continents of the underworld.
Stay calm; you should recover from your own injuries. When the injury is healed, see with your own eyes whether the Nine Nether King Xiao Shizhu is a more wise saint than my father." After that, he went out of the tent without looking back
.
He left Yingying lying alone in this quiet tent, closing his eyes and pondering.
A long time later, a long sigh broke the silence in the tent.
Julong swayed his snake tail, walked outside the tent, and took a deep breath.
"Where is the King of Jiuyou?" he turned to the guards guarding the tent and asked.
"The king and Lord Lu Wu asked for a fishing rod and went to the lake to fish." After thinking for a while, the soldier bowed to Julong.
"Thank you." After returning the greeting, Ju Long headed towards the lake.
Along the way, in addition to the frequent patrols, there were also many surrendered soldiers carrying stone, wood and other objects, shuttled back and forth between the military camps.
Ju Long looked around curiously for a while and then looked at the stones and wood. After frowned slightly and thought for a moment, he put away his curiosity and continued to move forward.
After leaving the gate, I walked for a while and arrived at the lake. But I saw Xiao Shizhu really wearing a straw hat and a straw raincoat sitting on the ground by the lake. He held a bamboo fishing rod in his hand and a fish basket at his feet;
He only brought a ghost of Vajra as his guard.
"The King of Jiuyou is so elegant." Ju Long walked forward and stood beside Xiao Shizhu. He looked up at the rolling dark clouds in the air and bowed and said, "It's going to rain. You are still in the mood to fish here.
”.
"So I brought a straw hat and a straw raincoat." Xiao Shizhu smiled. He moved his eyes away from the fishing line on the fishing rod and looked at the queen of Julong, but after seeing a hint of depression in Julong's eyes,
He asked slowly: "Has the Saint refuted you?"
"Yes." Ju Long sighed and said, "It seems that he can't hide anything from you."
"She is very strong and loyal to your father; if you don't refute, you will have a ghost." Xiao Shizhu smiled and said disapprovingly: "Take it slow."
As soon as he finished speaking, the fishing rod in his hand bent and the fishing line kept trembling. Xiao Shizhu held the fishing rod tightly, stabilized his body but did not rush to lift the rod.
It was not until a while later that the trembling of the fishing rod gradually weakened with the loss of time that he suddenly lifted the rod. But he saw the fish hook coming out of water and a big fish that kept flapping its tail on it.
"Julong." Xiao Shizhu pulled the fishing line back, took the big fish from the hook and put it in the fish basket, then took the bowl of bait handed over by King Kong, took out an earthworm from it, and hung the hook on it.
: "I have always been curious about what official position the Saint is in your country?"
As he said that, he waved the fishing rod to the lake; the fish hook fell into the water, causing ripples.
"The saint is not an official position, but a sacred and ancient professional title in our country. They believe in their own beliefs throughout their lives. They are all ghosts with strange abilities, and can also divine some future events for my father, etc.." Tiankong
The dark clouds in the middle are getting thicker and thicker, and there is a faint thunder sounding around the sky; Julong's voice also comes slowly: "Sometimes they will also pray for the people; therefore, the saints have a very high prestige in the country, second only
For my father, however, since they became saints, they were destined to have feelings and desires when they were in the underworld."
"Oh." Xiao Shizhu, who was satisfied with the curiosity, nodded and pondered for a moment, and asked again: "They? Do you say there are several saints?"
