While the two were stunned, Li Chengzhi grabbed the door and ran away.
As soon as the door opens, you can see Guo Cunxin standing at the foot of the steps outside the ancestral hall, and Zhang Jingzhi a few feet further back.
These two people were obviously afraid that Li Shixian and Guo Yuzhi would misunderstand, so they deliberately stayed so far away.
Guo Cunxin laughed: "Sitting there is too boring, so I proposed to take my second brother on a tour around the house, but I didn't expect that I ended up here after walking?"
Li Shixian's eyes bulged: Is this just a fart?
Can't you see the four words "Li's First Temple" that are so big on the archway?
It is impossible to swim to the ancestral hall wherever you go. These two clearly did this on purpose.
What does it mean?
Are you afraid that I, Li Shixian, will be harmful to Chengzhi?
What are you talking about? This is grandpa’s biological son...
Seeing Li Chengzhi's secretly relieved look, Li Shixian felt uncomfortable: It felt like his son, his uncle, and his uncle's uncle were in the same group, and that he, his own father-in-law and mother-in-law, had become an outsider?
"Don't blame me for being wild, Liu Shi and I are really unintentional..." Zhang Jingzhi also smiled and helped.
Grandpa believed your ghost...
Li Shixian responded with a smile on his face: "Brother Fengzhi said it's true, it's me who neglected you two... It's also my fault. Si'er was eager and pulled Chengzhi to say a few more words..."
How many more words did you say?
Guo Cunxin glanced at the wooden stick in Guo Yuzhi's hand: What a thoughtful thought?
If he and his uncle had arrived a little later, Li Chengzhi would probably have received two severe blows even if his legs were not broken...
Guo Cunxin was cursing, feeling his scalp getting cold. Guo Cunxin instinctively raised his eyes and met Guo Yuzhi's cold gaze.
He suddenly got excited and forced out a smile: "Sister...sister..."
"Guo Cunxin, how are you doing?"
Guo Yuzhi placed the wooden stick on the altar table and smiled coldly, "Don't worry, when we have free time someday, my brother and I will slowly talk about old times..."
Guo Cunxin almost cried with anger.
This is obviously because he has nothing to do with his son, so he wants to blame his brother...
Li Chengzhi, my uncle has been harmed by you.
Don’t you know your mother is a tiger?
……
No matter what, even if everyone here knows whether the Li clan members are dead or not, they still have to do what they should do.
Not only was the banquet served plain, but the soup was also plain, and there was no trace of the wine.
Everyone's meal was bland, but Li Chengzhi...
He was like a starving ghost who had been reincarnated, eating big mouthfuls of boiled vegetables and drinking vegetarian soup that didn't have any oily smell and didn't even add salt.
It was actually when he was in the military camp that he was frightened by nitrate, which was more bitter than salty.
In addition, there are not many dead horses, dead donkeys, dead mules, etc. captured from the battlefield. Everyone likes to eat them. He is not good at cooking, so he can only eat them together.
After going back and forth, I suddenly saw a vegetarian meal, just like delicacies from the mountains and seas...
As he watched, Guo Yuzhi's tears fell again.
They are all so hungry. It shows how much suffering you have suffered in the past?
It's a pity that as soon as I got started, before I even had a good meal, I was almost beaten by myself and my husband...
Guo Yuzhi's eyes were red, and she served the soup to Li Chengzhi tremblingly. But the more she thought about it, the sadder she became, and her tears were like scattered pearls, falling into the soup cup and bowl one by one...
Are you afraid that your food will be too bland?
Li Chengzhi took the bowl and was about to put it to his mouth when he suddenly heard Guo Yuzhi's sad voice: "Mother, I won't ask anymore..."
Li Shixian was shocked.
Madam has changed her gender?
Li Chengzhi was ecstatic.
Even though he looks like an old man, it’s because he’s pretending to be good, but in fact he can’t help but scratch his head.
He knew very well that if he couldn't convince his parents, the bond in the future would definitely be inevitable...
But before his teeth came out, Guo Yuzhi snorted again: "It's just tonight... If you have the ability, you will never come back..."
Li Chengzhi's face suddenly dropped to his hips...
Not to mention him, even Guo Cunxin was worried about his nephew: His sister is really difficult to deal with...
Although they all have their own concerns, they are all mature characters. The dinner was not boring at all, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
The banquet did not break up until midnight.
Guo Yuzhi led Li Chengzhi to the east chamber, hugged him and cried bitterly before leaving reluctantly.
Looking at the tearful Guo Yuzhi, and then looking at the hesitant Li Shixian, Li Chengzhi felt hot in his heart.
As parents, what else can’t be accepted?
If this were a peaceful and prosperous age, wouldn't it be wonderful to marry a few wives and concubines, have a few children, earn a little money, or become a minor official, and then grow old with your parents?
But it is a pity that this time is one of the rare troubled times in Chinese history?
If you don’t want to be a piece of meat on the chopping board and be slaughtered by others, you can only keep improving yourself and find a way to become the person qualified to hold a knife...
There is a long way to go...
Li Chengzhi let out a heavy breath, and waited until Li Shixian and Guo Yuzhi turned around and disappeared, then he closed the door...
……
Dongfang, Governor's Mansion!
It was already midnight, but the lights in the governor's mansion were brightly lit, as bright as day.
There are one sentry every three steps, one post every five steps, and a large number of guards can form a human wall. Even on the top of the wall and on the roof, soldiers wearing armor can be seen.
It’s not the fault of Da Xi making a fuss, but the scene in the daytime really shocked him.
Can people be hidden within the city wall?
God knows if there are still remnants in the city...
After personally inspecting everything and seeing that everything was clear, Da Xi dragged his exhausted body into the government office.
Lights were on everywhere, including the room where Xi Kangsheng took a temporary rest.
Da Xi pondered for a moment, then walked over and knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Xi Kangsheng's calm voice came from inside.
Pushing the door open, Da Xi saw Xi Kangsheng meditating while holding a letter. There were also some odds and ends in his hand, including copybooks, letters, armor, swords and guns, and even a silk dress... p>
Seeing Da Xi, Xi Kangsheng put down his handwriting and pondered again: "Is it possible that there are really people in this world who are divinely ordained?"
Da Xi's eyes moved slightly and he glanced at the handwritten letter.
There is a big seal stamped on it, which should be a military order, but the words... It's like a dog crawling, it's a compliment.
Not to mention the crookedness, half of the ten words are either missing feet or hands. Even my four-year-old son can write better than this.
You don’t need to guess to know that this is Li Chengzhi’s early handwriting.
The two rebellion letters that Liu Huizhen planted on Li Chengzhi were copied from similar handwriting.
It had already been discovered by the clerks and records office next to his father that the memorandum was not written by Li Chengzhi.
And this is not what Xi Kangsheng cares about. You can tell that it is what makes Liu Huizhen jump over the wall and frame Li Chengzhi...
What surprised him was Li Chengzhi's growth rate.
Let’s first look at Li Chengzhi’s handwriting: At the beginning, he was like a child who had just become enlightened. Not to mention the writing was ugly, but he didn’t even remember all the glyphs?
But as time went by, the words seemed to have completely transformed. The more they were written, the neater and neater they became, and the more they were written, the more beautiful they became. In the end, they actually had some unique character. Although I dare not say that they are "everyone", they can definitely be regarded as "everyone".
Call it a "good word"!
And this is only two months from beginning to end...
Looking at the poem again, it was originally written like this: A toad on the lotus, poking and jumping...
From a distance, Longshan looks dark, thin at the top and thick at the bottom.
If you turn Longshan upside down, it will be thinner at the bottom and thicker at the top...
Also:
What things are flying in the sky, coming and going in piles here and there?
Could it be that when the gods built the golden temple, they sifted lime and sifted lime?
What kind of bullshit is this? Can this be called poetry?
But two months later, Li Chengzhi was able to write such shocking and heart-shaking words as "Finish the affairs of the king and win the reputation before and after death", "I only die for my country on the battlefield, why return in horse leather?"
A masterpiece handed down from generation to generation?
Xi Kangsheng thought that even Guo Cheng, Li Chengzhi’s grandfather, who was praised as a rich scholar and full of economics, would not be able to do it.
It is somewhat possible to replace it with Li Chengzhi’s grandfather Li Qi.
It’s not that Li Qi’s talents and learning are higher than Guo Cheng’s, but that Li’s ancestral home has passed down “Han Shi” to his family, and he specializes in the art...
As for Li Shixian...hehehe...
In addition to words and poems, Zhang Jingzhi and Yang Shu also mentioned it many times in their letters: Li Chengzhi is like the beginning of his spiritual wisdom. He didn't understand anything at the beginning, but after a little study, he can make great progress...
What amazed them the most was Li Chengzhi’s military talent.
At the beginning, I didn’t even know how to march and set up a formation, but within a month, I was able to draw inferences from one example, innovate, and create new formations and tactics that would impress people.
I didn't care about the rest, just talking about the hollow array, even Xi Kangsheng was secretly frightened when he saw it.
There are also the methods of scouting and reporting, and the techniques of marching and sending messages, which are all beyond the capabilities of previous generations...
Compared with this, the art of forging swords and forging iron is just a small skill...
If you think about it more carefully, Li Chengzhi cannot be said to have received divine wisdom, nor can he reach a height beyond the reach of ordinary people once he became wise.
On the contrary, it is like a newborn baby, growing up bit by bit.
But the growth rate is a bit faster. It would take others a lifetime to reach a height, but it only took Li Chengzhi two months.
And it’s still growing?
This is what surprised Xi Kangsheng the most.
He really wants to see what Li Chengzhi will eventually grow into...
Da Xi thought about it for a long time, but he didn't have a definite answer, so he had to reply honestly: "My nephew really doesn't know..."
Xi Kangsheng sighed slightly again.
Yes, even I can’t figure it out, let alone Daxi?
He put down the handwriting and picked up something as big as rice.
It is also like a silver bean, it is shiny all over, and it is also quite heavy to buy.
Da Xi took a closer look and found that it seemed to be quite similar in quality to the meteorite iron sword that Li Chengzhi gave to his father?
"You guessed it right!" Xi Kangsheng nodded, "This object was dug out from the bottom of the lake in Lijiabao. It should be the residue of the iron meteorite that fell that day as Li Chengzhi said..."
Da Xi felt so surprised that he subconsciously grabbed two more pills from the table.
It feels a little heavy and a little hard.
But just looking at the material, it is indeed the same as the meteorite knife.
"Is it really meteorite?" Daxi asked in surprise.
"Nine times out of ten!" Xi Kangsheng nodded, "I went to dig up the details of the anti-letters and appeals, and I did dig out scorched earth at the bottom of the lake, as well as traces of the mud and sand being turned into colored glaze... Except for the drop from the sky.
Meteors, or thunder bombardment, there is no other way to create such a scene..."
Da Xi took a closer look at the iron slag in his hand, and then took a deep breath: "Don't you mean that Li Chengzhi's knife is all made of meteorite iron?"
"That's why I said it was a waste of natural resources!"
Xi Kangsheng pointed to the armor at his feet again: "Now that I think about it, Li Chengzhi may not have lied. This armor may really be mixed with such a magical thing..."
Da Xi's heart suddenly shrank, and even his facial features wrinkled: "Li Chengzhi only exchanged for such a treasure ten horses? And this armor, only one young man who is good at riding and shooting was exchanged?"<
/p>
What’s even more pity is that they all died?
Even the horses were burned to pieces...
If it had been Li Chengzhi, I would have fainted from heartache...
"So why do you admire Li Chengzhi so much when you think that people like Yang Yanrong and Zhang Fengzhi have such high aspirations?"
Xi Kangsheng sighed sadly, "You can give up such treasures. It can be seen that the rumors of Li Chengzhi 'giving up all his family wealth' are not groundless..."
"Found out of nothing?" Da Xi looked puzzled.
It feels like my father doesn’t believe that Li Chengzhi really gave up all his family wealth?
"Don't use your brain?" Xi Kangsheng cursed, "With Li Shixian's temperament, what kind of wealth can he make in the Li Family Fort that he doesn't see once a year?"
Daxi was puzzled.
Does it mean there is no money at all in Lijiapu?
He asked suspiciously: "Then when Li Chengzhi started his army, where did he get the money to buy iron and horses?"
Even if Li Chengzhi takes desperate measures and wants to steal or rob, he still has to find a home to do it?
"How did it come about?"
Xi Kangsheng smiled coldly: "Li Chengzhi can even smelt iron, so what's the difficulty in smelting a few bronze Buddhas?"
