major general

The autumn wind is bleak, chrysanthemums are blooming everywhere, and the wind blows away the strong smell of medicine in Xuzhou City.

Bunle lifted the bamboo curtain and looked out with his head.Xuzhou City, where the imperial decree arrived yesterday, he packed up and prepared to leave.

Xuzhou City is lively today, everyone walked around the street, and followed Master Tong all the way to the Earth Temple in the city.The Earth Temple has been refurbished again, with golden threads and jade stones, more resplendent than ever.Master Liaotong recited the Mantra of Rebirth, held the bodhi seed in his hand, and recited it all the way.

When someone in the city died, they would burn paper money in an aluminum pot at the door of their house, and when they saw Master Tong, they would kneel down, wishing those family members who had returned to the underworld to reincarnate early, to reincarnate in the next life, and be a wealthy idler for the rest of their lives.

Master Liaotong walked in front, and Liao Wuhen was above the eaves. He didn't know what he was thinking, so he just followed in the footsteps of Master Tong and walked all the way to the Earth Temple.

He opened the window, flew in, leaned behind the land god, and listened to Master Tong recite the mantra of passing away.

"Master, please read it a few more times..." A woman knelt with her child in her arms and said.

Master Liaotong closed his eyes, no emotion could be seen on his compassionate face.

A child grabbed his grandmother's cuff and looked at the land god, asking, "Grandma, is it really useful? Can Daddy really go to the sky and become a fairy?"

His grandma was startled, and seeing everyone looking over, she quickly covered the child's mouth and said, "Shhh—"

Master Liaotong looked at the child with a smile and said, "If you believe in it, you will have it."

I don't know how many times I recited the mantra of rebirth in a day, the earth temple finally calmed down, and the people returned to their homes with worries in their hearts.

There was no one else in the earth temple, and Liao Wuhen sat up with support. He had already been used to staying in one position for several days, and he could bear it.Today, for some reason, he always felt empty when he heard the rebirth mantra.

Xuzhou was closed. Before he entered the city, he had a rare kindness. He brought a man into the city, and that man was Li Yun.

Unexpectedly, Li Yun got a good name, but his fate was full of twists and turns.He wanted to find a way out of the world. First, he closed the city again and put the government officials in prison; then he revolted in the name of the rebel army and controlled the rice merchants and medicine merchants in the city;

The sum of these previous and subsequent faults was all due to my momentary kindness that day.Liao Wuhen feels unbearable guilt in his heart, but he doesn't show it on the surface.

Liao Wuhen frowned, put his hand on the land master, and a thin notebook fell out from it.

There was no dust on the book, and when I opened it, it was a Sanskrit translation of "Lessons Collection".

There are pages inside, and when you open it, you will see the mantra of rebirth.

Leaving Wuhen in silence, he patted the dust on his clothes, put the page in front of him, knelt down and began to read word by word.

Outside the Earth Temple, Master Liaotong listened attentively, shook his head with a smile, and happily walked out holding his bodhi seed, just like a Maitreya Buddha.

The people who cross from one life to another are not limited to the dead.

Outside the prefect's mansion, Sizhu was busy back and forth, throwing all the burdens into the carriage, and said: "Master, it's packed."

The lives of the people have returned to the right track, and Xuzhou City has opened up again. People coming and going are wearing hoods or covered in medicinal fragrance.Wen Le took a look and asked, "Where is Li Yun?"

Sizhu thought about it, and said: "The detainee said that he will go back to Jinlin with us today, and I will hand it over to today for a decision."

"It's not good, Major General! Li Yun, Li Yun is gone!"

Wen Le frowned and said, "No one? Gone?"

The man panted heavily, waved his hands and said no.

Sizhu looked at the man and said: "Xuzhou dialect, if you lose it, you are dead, then Li Yun..."

"Go, go to the cell and have a look."

Li Yun committed a serious crime, so he set up a separate cell and was guarded by special people.Wen Le has been busy outside, and has never had time to come to this cell to see who Li Yun is.

After entering the prison, the guards in charge of guarding the prisoners looked at each other one by one, and dared not speak.

Li Yun was in the cell, head down, huddled in a corner, the wound on his forehead was a bump injury, blood was flowing all over his face, and he couldn't see his face.There are some spots on his body, all of which are scattered here and there, and he must have been beaten severely before his death.

Wen Le took a handkerchief and wiped off the blood stains on his face little by little. After confirming that it was Li Yun who was kicked off his horse in the crowd that day, he asked, "What's going on?"

The head catcher was pushed out, saluted Wen Le, and said: "Returning to the words of the young general, yesterday... the subordinates and brothers were guarding outside the cell and never left. I am afraid that Li Yun knows that he is After a short time, he killed himself."

Wen Le looked back at him, sweating coldly, and said, "I didn't say anything, why are you so anxious to find an excuse for him?"

Catcher wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "Subordinate, subordinate..."

"You never left, why did you find out that the man died this morning? Or did you find out yesterday, and you didn't report it and wait for me to ask you?" Wen Le approached, looked at the policeman's desktop, and said , "You were all guarding the truth here yesterday, but are you awake? The cell is sealed, and the smell of alcohol has not dissipated until now, and it can't be covered. I really don't know if you are stupid, or you think I am stupid."

Seeing that the matter had been exposed, the head catcher hurriedly knelt down with the other catchers behind him, and said, "Please spare my life, Major General!"

"What was the truth yesterday, let me tell you the truth!"

Since Li Yun entered the prison cell, he has been silent all day long, leaning against the wall in silence, with a look of indifference to life and death.

The cell is airtight, but it has been built for many years, and there are some holes.Where Li Yun usually sits, he happens to be able to see the big tree outside through the hole.

"Yesterday, Li Yun sat there as usual, looking like he was going to die." The head catcher said, pointing to the position, "but in the afternoon, he suddenly started roaring, yelling at the empty wall. 'Zhengzheng', 'Zhengzheng'. His daughter had died before, didn't he mean to haunt the ghosts? Our brothers drank alcohol and didn't respond to scolding him, so we taught him a few times.. …”

The head catcher was talking, and the catcher behind him added: "Major General Mingjian, even if we are drunk, we will keep a hand, and it is not to the extent that we want to put him to death!"

"Yes, after that Li Yun started to bang his head against the wall, calling his daughter's nickname while bumping. Then...then...then there was no movement."

Wen Le walked into the cell again and squatted next to Li Yun.The corpse was so stiff that he couldn't move it, so he moved closer to Li Yun and looked at the hole.The hole is long and narrow, and one can just see a big tree when one looks out along that place.

big tree...

Bunle got up suddenly and ran outside.

Sizhu and the captors exchanged glances, and hurriedly followed behind.

The autumn wind blows suddenly, and the lantern flowers have already withered, and there are one after another small lanterns on the tree, which is very gratifying to look at.

Wen Le stepped on the branches, climbed up the treetop with a ladder, and directly took something from the top.

It is a small kite made by swallows.

Wen Le took the kite and looked back, and there happened to be a small hole on the wall not far away.

I don't know which family's children are naughty, and they want someone to fly a kite in the fall.Borrowing the autumn wind, the kite flew higher and higher, and the thread was cut.The kite flew all the way along the autumn wind, and fell on the top of the tree. Li Yun in the cell saw it squarely.

What he was looking at was not the kite, but his daughter.

"Master..."

Wen Le held the kite and said in a low voice, "Pick up Li Yun's body and bury it on the spot."

Sizhu took the lead, and just outside the threshold, Wenle called to stop her.Turning around, an object hit her in the face, Si Zhu quickly reached out to catch it, it was the faded kite.

Wen Le folded his hands behind his back and said, "Bury this together in the coffin."

"Yes, sir."

It was another half day's delay. It was already late when Wenle left, but the officers and soldiers who brought him were not afraid of the dark night, and left Xuzhou City slowly under the afterglow of the setting sun.

At the same time, Zhou Chong and Yan Zhou also went to Luzhou. They went for more than a month, but they had a lot of fun.

Zhou Chong was sitting in the carriage, holding a folding fan in his hand and fanning the wind slowly.The window of the carriage was opened, Zhuang He glanced at it, handed in a basket, and said, "Boss Xiao Yan, Princess Yi'an asked someone to deliver it."

Yan Zhou was startled, and took a look.Inside is a pomegranate the size of an adult's fist, which is bright red and very gratifying.

Yan Zhou looked at Huanxi, took a knife and peeled off the skin, and put all the pomegranate seeds one by one into the glass bowl.It looks like a ruby ​​from the outside, very watery.

"Your Highness, you taste."

Zhou Chong took it and said, "Giving pomegranates is a good meaning."

"What does it mean?"

"Many seeds bring blessings." Zhou Chong said, sitting beside him with Yan Zhou's waist in his arms, leaning heavily on him, and said, "Princess Yi'an is not unusual at all in giving things. "

Many children, many blessings——

Yan Zhou's ears turned red in an instant, and he said: "Wild food in the mountains, freshness is the best food, the princess is kind, don't misinterpret it, Your Highness."

Seeing that his ears were red, Zhou Chong didn't think it was sticky enough, so he lay down on his lap, twisted the pomegranate seeds and stuffed them into his mouth, saying: "Speaking for others like this must be due to my lack of effort. Dissatisfied."

Yan Zhou didn't know what to say, he pursed his lips and remained silent.

Zhou Chong tilted his head with a smile, kissed Yan Zhou's stomach, and said: "Don't be angry, Chuaner, I work so hard, it will be a matter of time before I get pregnant!"

There was constant noise in the carriage, Zhuang He shook his head helplessly, this Ninth Highness is really bohemian, his voice begging for mercy is everywhere.

His horse was a few steps behind, and he walked to the carriage at the back. Wang Hu sat in the front and drove the carriage, took the water bottle from Zhuang He, and threw it into the carriage.

In Wenle's documents, Chen Taishou had contracted the plague and died. In order to avoid infection, his body had been burned to ashes and buried with the people.

Lifting the curtain of the carriage, Zhuang He looked at the prefect Chen who had lost a lot of weight in the carriage, and said: "Drink some water, we will not kill you until everything is used up."

Chen Taishou shook his hands to pick up the kettle on the ground, raised his head and poured it down his throat.

Zhuang He snorted coldly, closed the curtain, and looked into the distance.

The Cishan Mountain could already be seen from a distance in Luzhou City, and the candles of the farmers were lit one by one, looking very beautiful.Many river lanterns were lit on the river, like stars in the water.

"Is it so lively there?"

Wang Hu glanced at it from a distance and said, "People's lanterns. The Mid-Autumn Festival is here, and it's a custom in Luzhou."

Mid-Autumn Festival reunion.

Wang Hu closed his eyes, thinking of the family of wives and children killed by Chen Taishou, pressed the pain in his eyes, and whipped the horse's ass.
