Liaozhai Great Sage

Hua Gu didn't speak anymore, she had turned into a golden statue in front of her, lifelike, compassionate and beautiful.

Chapter 484 The Second Envoy Is Afraid of Chickens

"Congratulations to the sage for suppressing Hua Gu and removing a thousand-year-old demon from the world."

Looking at the lifelike and beautiful golden body of Kannon in front of him, congratulations from King Yangzijiang sounded in Li Xiuyuan's ears.

Looking back, the alligator on the ground had disappeared, and there was only a child about twelve or thirteen years old standing there.

"Really? But I didn't completely get rid of this Hua Gu. She said before that she has hundreds of temples and more than [-] Dharma statues. Such evil spirits are like weeds in the field, and it is difficult to get rid of them. It's just a helpless move for me to suppress her." Li Xiuyuan looked at Hua Gu's golden body in front of him and said slowly.

"However, before Hua Gu was suppressed, she only had compassion in her heart, didn't she? Thousands of years later, when she was released from the suppression, she was no longer a demon."

King Yangzijiang said, "Maybe she will really become a Bodhisattva by then."

"Hehe, it's just a coincidence. Before I turned her into a golden body, she pretended to be compassion and a Bodhisattva. Perhaps time can wipe away her other evil thoughts and make this fake compassion become real compassion." , so that future generations will not have to worry about such evil spirits harming the world." Li Xiuyuan said.

Even if the compassion that has lasted for thousands of years is pretended, it may become real after a long time of pretending.

There are no unchanging people in the world, and there are no unchanging evil spirits.

"Hua Gu will be handed over to you. I will sink her golden body into the Yangtze River and suppress her for 1000 years. After 1000 years, my touch-to-gold spell will probably be invalidated. Although using divine power to cast spells can have unimaginable effects. , but spells are spells after all, and it is impossible to trap Hua Gu forever." Li Xiuyuan said.

"The sage is too worried. The millennium of suppression is believed to be enough to wipe out all her evils." Yangzijiang King said.

Then he waved his sleeve, and the golden body of Aunt Hua in front of him was immediately rolled up and flew into his sleeve, ready to take it to the Yangtze River to sink into the bottom of the river as ordered.

He was more than happy to oblige in this matter.

He is the King of the Yangtze River. If he guards Huagu for 1000 years, wouldn't he have indirectly obtained Chengruo and let him continue to be the King of the Yangtze River for 1000 years?

Although it is not stated explicitly, it has the meaning in it.

Of course, the premise is that the king of Yangzijiang has to keep his promises and keep himself safe.

"Let's go, Hua Gu has surrendered, and the evil spirits in Yangzhou should have been wiped out. Since Shi Hu didn't stay with Hua Gu, then I can be sure that this fellow has left Yangzhou." Li Xiuyuan got on his horse and looked at up north.

He vaguely felt that Shi Hu had gone north.

Because after defeating Dongyue Shenjun and taking away his divine power, it can be said that the governance of ghosts and gods in the Jiangnan area has fallen into his hands.

If Shihu didn't want to be a chariot with his arms, he would go to the north where he has no jurisdiction.

He didn't have any power foundation there, only Ma Dong and Niu Er were left there to keep an eye on the situation in the north, and by the way, formed a little force to seduce the soul and maintain a little peace in the north.

As for whether the seeds planted that day are useful or not, it is still unknown.

"Drive~!"

Riding a dragon colt, Li Xiuyuan left the county with King Yangzi Jiang and a battalion of troops.

The purpose of this trip is to come for Hua Gu. Now that Hua Gu has surrendered, there is no need to stay here anymore. As for the turmoil in this county, he will send someone to manage it later.

A day later, he returned to Jincheng Road.

Although the turmoil has calmed down, the aftermath is extremely heavy. Fortunately, he has Wang Ping in his army, Fu Tianchou in Jinling City, and Li Linfu in the mansion for ghosts and gods.

The manpower seems to be small, but all of them are unique talents.

Especially Li Linfu, the commander-in-chief of the management of ghosts and gods, started from scratch, and it all depends on him to help the village, otherwise Li Xiuyuan would not be so easy.

"The general is back."

"Meet the general."

After returning to Jinling City with some people, Li Xiuyuan immediately walked towards the Yamen.

Before entering the yamen, a yamen servant trotted over respectfully, and said salutingly: "Young one has seen the general, Mr. Fu asked the young one to wait for the general to come back here, and report something to the general."

"Oh, what is there to send someone to wait for me to come back? Tell me, what's wrong with Jinling City?" Li Xiuyuan said.

The yamen servant said: "Back to the general, when the general was out to fight, the two envoys of the imperial court arrived, and they came with the order of the imperial court. After Mr. Fu asked the younger brother to see the general, he asked the general to meet those two immediately." Envoy, it is urgent."

"The imperial court has sent an envoy again? For what purpose, do you know something about it?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

The yamen servant replied: "I heard from the brothers in the yamen office that the rewards from the court have arrived. The little one saw that the envoy brought a lot of treasures, including the horse guard's BMW, jade belts, treasure armor, and gold and silver. Silk satin, congratulations to the general, congratulations to the general, the general repelled the rebels and broke the siege of Jinling City, now the general's reputation has reached the ears of the emperor, and the general will surely be able to rise to the top and become rich and prosperous in the future."

"Okay, I don't need to flatter you, and you won't be rewarded if you do. Go back and spread the word, let those two envoys come to the Yamen, and the general will meet them naturally." Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and said.

"Yes, yes, I'm going to pass on the message now, little one." The yamen servant took the lead again and again, and trotted away immediately.

When he walked into the yamen, there was Duan Wenruowen, an official next to Fu Tianchou, in the lobby, helping with government affairs, and a familiar person was helping him.

"Hey, Ning Caichen, are you here too?" Li Xiuyuan was a little surprised immediately.

Unexpectedly, Ning Caichen was also in the Yamen.

Ning Caichen raised his head immediately after hearing the voice, and when he saw Li Xiuyuan, he hurriedly put down the brush in his hand, stood up and gave a salute: "Xiaosheng pays respects to General Li, thanks to General Li's trust, after Xiaosheng received a letter from General Li So I rushed to help immediately, hoping that Xiaosheng's meager efforts can help General Li."

"One mouthful and one General Li, the birth share, you and I have been friends for a long time, and now I give up my pen and join the army, don't you think you look down on me as a warrior?" Li Xiuyuan said with a smile.

"Don't dare, dare not." Ning Caichen smiled shyly, patted his head a little embarrassed.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Hehe, how does it feel to be an official?"

Ning Caichen said with a bitter face: "Now Xiaosheng knows what it means to be a labor of copywriting. The official documents that are processed every day are piled up higher than people, and they have to be carefully corrected. I am afraid that something will go wrong and damage the reputation of the people." matter."

"Yes, this is an official. Responsible officials are naturally hard-working and tired, but those stupid officials don't care about the life and death of the people. No matter how comfortable they are, the people will naturally suffer. The taste of labor, this shows that you have put your heart into it, I thank you here, thank you for your help this time." Li Xiuyuan saluted.

Ning Caichen was a little flattered: "Brother Li, you are being polite. The reputation of a young student is not a scholar. Now that he has this opportunity to do things for the people, how dare he neglect it? If Brother Li said thank you, wouldn't it be a shame for the young student?"

"Mr. Li, don't bother to reminisce about the past, and don't care about your father-in-law's life in prison? Mr. Fu is always worried about state affairs even in the cell. He often asks about you, Mr. Li. I hope Li The young master's battle went smoothly this time, and he wiped out the thieves in one fell swoop, and restored the peace of the world." Duan Wenruo who was beside him smiled and bowed with his hands, and then said.

Li Xiuyuan bowed back and said: "Thank you, Mr. Fu, but thanks to his subordinates fighting to the death, the turmoil in Nine Mountain King has been calmed down. Mr. Duan might as well tell Mr. Fu the good news."

"Mr. Li is really capable. The more than [-] thieves have been wiped out in just a few months. The rewards from the court have just come down. It seems that Mr. Li is going to be promoted again. Congratulations, Mr. Li." Duan Wenruo Said.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "Although the turmoil of Nine Mountain King Li Liangjin has subsided, I have seen the weakening of the Great Song Dynasty. There are hundreds of people in the district raising their arms, and there are like clouds of followers. In less than a year, they have engulfed the bandit soldiers." More than one hundred thousand, in such a situation, don't Mr. Duan and Mr. Fu in the prison see something?"

Duan Wenruo smiled awkwardly: "The lower officials only know how to be loyal to their duties, how can they know the general trend of the world."

"Mr. Duan, why pretend to be confused. Although I can defeat the King of Nine Mountains, there is nothing I can do if the building is about to collapse. After all, the reincarnation of dynasties is a law, and there is no eternal dynasty in the world." Li Xiuyuan said seriously.

"Since that's the case, why can't Mr. Li be the one who saves the sky?" Duan Wenruo said.

"The sky is about to collapse, I can't save it alone, I hope such turmoil will happen less in the future." Li Xiuyuan said with emotion.

Duan Wenruo also nodded in agreement.
