Previous link: Volume I, Chapter 28
When Hu Yixiong heard Li Chuanyong say that he had asked Ma Er to send the book down the mountain, he was so angry that he jumped up from the bed, and looked at Li Chuanyong with his eyes wide open: "Big brother, what did you say?"
"I wrote a letter of surrender and asked Ma Er to send it to the officials and soldiers under the mountain. Li Chuanyong looked at Hu Yixiong's expression and felt that his reaction was too much: "Second brother, I also sent someone down the mountain to inquire about the news recently. I heard that there is an order from the imperial court now, but anyone like us who was forced to go up to the mountains to become bandits before still has a way to go. He said as he watched Hu Yixiong's reaction.
At this moment, Hu Yixiong didn't seem to have any expression on his face, but Shan Xia couldn't help but ask: "Big brother, what does the court say?"
"The people sent out inquired about the news, saying that the imperial court is now busy with the war with the south, and some of them don't care about us. Therefore, the imperial court plans to open up to us like this, and if we want to go down the mountain, the imperial court will not blame the past. He said, 'If you stay on the mountain, you will be a thief, but if you go down the mountain, you can still be a good citizen!'" Li Chuanyong said.
"That's the best!" said Shan Xia with her hand on her chest, "Then we can still have a way out! Listen, master, we can still ......"
But before Shan Xia finished speaking, she heard Hu Yixiong shouting: "Fuck his good people! Lao Tzu is not rare! I was a good citizen at the beginning, and I was not forced to go up the mountain by them! I can still be a good citizen, but who will pay for my parents' lives? Who will pay for my sister's life? And those dog officials are here, what kind of life will I be a good citizen! You will also believe this stinky bullshit they put out? ! He almost roared angrily, his eyes wide and he was about to argue with others, but he was only halfway through speaking, and he only listened to "pounce" With a bang, a mouthful of blood spat out of his mouth, and the person also fell on the bed.
"Boss, boss!" Shan Xia saw it, her face changed in fright, and she hurriedly hugged Hu Yixiong and shouted.
"Second brother!" Li Chuanyong was also startled, and hurriedly ordered the little minions: "Go and call Langzhong! Go and call Langzhong!" Thinking that Miao Langzhong had already gone down the mountain, he hurriedly said: "Hurry up and ask Daoist Qiu to come! Go quickly, go quickly!"
After a while, Qiu Chuji walked in quickly, Hu Yixiong was already unconscious when he came in, he hurriedly checked Hu Yixiong's pulse, and slowly, the expression on his face became more and more cold.
"Dao Chief, how is my family?" At this time, Shan Xia almost cried into tears, and asked in a series of voices next to her.
"Let's take medicine first. Qiu Chuji said as he prescribed medicine, and said: "The wound of the second master has not healed yet, and what I am most afraid of is wine and anger. I'll prescribe a prescription first, eat it for a few days, and don't make him angry again during this time!"
"Alas, with his temperament, he can't listen to anything at this time!" Shan Xia said as she looked at Li Chuanyong.
"Who knew that the second brother had such a hot temper ......" Li Chuanyong said with shaking hands on the side, "I was also thinking about persuasion and persuasion, who knew that he would not allow any effort at all!"
"Big brother," Shan Xia blessed Li Chuan Yong and said: "Big brother, you have always been a person who takes big ideas and does great things, and in the future, you will take care of the things on this mountain, but don't let the slightest rumor leak to him! Whether we descend on this mountain or fight, I don't think it's a big deal, I just have to save his life! Big deal, one day I'll take our head of the house, it's better to find a place to hide!"
"That's right, brother and sister, you have always understood things best! Now in this world, we can't compete with others, how can it be good not to accept a soft person at this time? I'm here, I'm also for the lives of the Manshan brothers, isn't it? If you continue to fight like this, it will hurt people's lives! In any case, you just have to take good care of the second brother first, and I won't dare to do anything with him in the future!" Li Chuanyong was frightened by Hu Yixiong's moment, his face was pale at this time, and he wanted to say something more comforting, but he didn't say anything, just shook his hands and was surprised.
After a while, the minions retrieved the medicine, Qiu Chuji instructed carefully, Shan Xia agreed one by one and ordered the girl to light the fire and boil the medicine, and Qiu Chuji and Li Chuanyong walked out.
At this time, Li Chuanyong walked in this mountain, as if he had lost his soul, and walked a little swaying, only feeling that this mountain is not like the mountain of the past, and the tree is not like the tree of the past.
"Alas, if you want to come to live for a bite of food, why bother!" Thinking of Hu Yixiong's situation, Li Chuanyong couldn't help but let out a long sigh and said.
The words of the great boss are true, but if people can be content, they can naturally be happy. Nowadays, the big boss doesn't need to work too hard in everything, let it be natural. Qiu Chuji said on the side, "Although this official army is at the bottom of the mountain, there is always room for relaxation. ”
"Dao Chief, I also know that I have done too many bad things in the past, and I don't care about my life!" Li Chuanyong said leisurely, "It's just that for so many years, my brothers have put their own net worth and lives in my hands, but I can't help but think about them! This battle is fought one after another, when will it be the head? I really can't bear to exchange the lives of my brothers for food! I know that the second brother was so anxious that he vomited blood today because he thought I had handed over the letter of surrender to the official army, but I naturally attached great importance to my second brother, but the lives of these brothers were also in my hands, so how could I watch them be sent to death again? Compared with the two, I can't care much more at this time!" Speaking of this, Li Chuanyong let out a long sigh again.
"The righteousness of the great boss is really a blessing for the brothers on this mountain! As soon as the sword and soldiers move, there will naturally be casualties. Life is originally the most precious in heaven and earth, and whoever loses and who wins is secondary. Speaking of this, Qiu Chuji changed his words, "I should do my best to treat the second master, but his injury is secondary, the important thing is to change his heart, so that he can have a little vitality." ”
"Dao Chief, I don't know medical skills, and when it comes to heart and practice, I'm a layman. The second brother's body also asked the Taoist chief to bother more, I just hope that he can turn the corner as soon as possible!" Li Chuanyong said and bowed to Qiu Chuji, and then went back to his residence.
When Qiu Chuji returned to his residence, he saw that Li Tongxuan and the others were already ready and were waiting for him to come back and start the ritual, so he hurriedly prepared to start today's ritual.
When everyone walked out of the house, Li Tongxuan looked up at the sky and clouds as in the past, and couldn't help but say: "Now the anger on this mountain is much lighter!"
Next to Li Tongxuan was his disciple Xuan Nuo, who also looked at the sky with care, and then said, "Master, I think it's our strong spells!" There was a smug look on his face.
Li Tongxuan glared at Xuan Nuo, and Xuan Nuo couldn't help but smile and lowered his head.
Li Tongxuan looked at Qiu Chuji, Qiu Chuji smiled faintly, and said: "It's not because of our strong spells, it's really because of the compassion and Dao power of our ancestors. ”
Ding Dali is still following the rituals, he has decided to become a monk, and there is more indifference between words and deeds, so although he is still arranging the rituals, etc., there are obviously fewer words, and occasionally when he calms down, he just reads the Taoist classics, and he feels as if he has returned to the days when he was studying at the foot of the mountain.
It was only then that he understood better what it meant to be "where the heart goes". Yes, his destination is still in the book classics. It is indeed a very happy and comfortable thing for him to live according to the Word.
Things on the mountain are going according to the established procedure.
Qiu Chuji now needs to go to Hu Yixiong's place three times a day for medical treatment, and Hu Yixiong finally woke up after a day and a night after that coma, although the pain on his body is not important, he is still in a daze.
Shan Xia takes the girls to take care of her every day, she is sad and anxious, she can't take care of eating and drinking, once she sees that Hu Yixiong is a little sober and can eat and drink, she hurriedly asks the girls to cook porridge and cook, and softly persuades Hu Yixiong to eat something.
Ding Dali sometimes accompanied Qiu Chuji to visit Hu Yixiong, Hu Yixiong was fine when he was in a coma, it didn't matter how he looked in front of the bed, but when he came to visit with Qiu Chuji that day, he was just in time for Hu Yixiong to wake up, Ding Dali's clothes had changed to a blue robe, Hu Yixiong was not sure who it was when he first saw Ding Dali, so he asked Shan Xia: "Who is that?"
Shan Xia hurriedly said: "That's Brother Dali, he came to see you. ”
"Dali," Hu Yixiong was still very weak when he spoke, and when he heard that it was Ding Dali, the corners of his mouth barely pulled into some smiles, "You come closer, I'll take a good look." Brother, you're not out of the house, are you, are you still working with your brother?"
Ding Dali and Hu Yixiong have been friends for more than ten years, at this time, seeing Hu Yixiong sick like this, he felt very sad, and when he heard Hu Yixiong call himself, he hurriedly took a few steps forward: "Brother Xiong, you have to take care of your body ......"
Ding Dali approached, Hu Yixiong saw clearly the extremely simple Taoist clothes on his body, and couldn't help asking: "Brother, why are you dressed like this? What about your usual good clothes? No matter how poor we are on the mountain, we can't be poor on the mountain!"
"Brother Xiong, this is the new Taoist uniform given to me by Daochang Li. Ding Dali said.
"You, do you still want to become a monk?" Hu Yixiong suddenly spoke in a loud voice.
Shan Xia next to her saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly shook her head and waved her hand at Ding Dali, but Ding Dali had always been straight-hearted, and he didn't see it when he was concentrating on talking to Hu Yixiong at this time, and still said very honestly: "Brother Xiong, such a thing as a monk is naturally not for fun!"
"You, get out!" Hu Yixiong didn't say a word, and a bloodshot flowed out along the corner of his mouth.
