Chapter 11 Chapter 10: Sun Soul Moon Spirit

At dawn, Di Renjie took Li Yuanfang and Ayu out, and saw that the streets were already very busy early in the morning. Because it was approaching the Lantern Festival, all the squares were busy setting up colorful lights in advance, and only waited until that time to sing and walk at night Looking at the lanterns and the moon, so Di Renjie and others can't walk fast even on horseback. The city of Luoyang is huge. Excluding Miyagi, there are three cities in the south, north and west. Passing through the city, the scene of prosperity cannot be compared with other places. Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang didn't care to pay attention to the excitement before the festival. Ayu usually chattered, but at this moment he was also preoccupied. He just rode his horse forward. Unexpectedly, a child in the crowd ran out, grabbed Di Renjie's horse, and asked in a childish voice: "It's Master Di Renjiedi right now?"

Seeing that he looked very smart and cute, Di Renjie smiled and said, "I am." "Someone asked me to give this to you." The child reached out and handed over a paper package, without saying much, turned around and slipped through the crowd. Di Renjie opened it and saw that it was a pawn bill for the pledge warehouse, and there was another piece of paper with some vertical and horizontal lines drawn on it, which looked like a Go board, with scribbled numbers on it, and it said: "It's about Ayu, I hope you will come soon." Take it." Looking around, he saw that the road was full of people, knowing that it was inconvenient to take a closer look at this place, he still put it in his arms carefully, and signaled Li Yuanfang beside him not to stay, and went straight to the General's Mansion.

When we arrived in front of the mansion, the concierge went to inform himself. When we were young, we heard a person coming out laughing and shouting: "Open the door quickly and welcome the distinguished guests!" Brother, I'm gone!" While hurriedly pulling Di Renjie into the inner hall, pressing him on the seat, he came to let Li Yuanfang. Ayu glanced sideways and saw his beard fluttering all over his face, and he opened his mouth and talked non-stop, making people say no, no, no, so he couldn't help laughing secretly.Li Yuanfang finally got a free time, and said with a smile: "Brother Kaigu, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you are still so hot!" Li Kaigu laughed loudly.

Governor Di Renjie was in an emergency, and said frankly: "General, I am here this time to ask you something." Li Kaigu said: "I am most troubled by fuss. Master Di can just talk about what he has, and he doesn't ask for advice, even if he uses my wealth and life." Li Yuanfang took out the painting and was spreading it on the table when Li Kaigu said anxiously: "My lord, you also know that I don't know much about Chinese characters, let alone appreciating paintings." Di Renjie smiled and said: "It's nothing, come and see if you recognize the painting on this painting?"

Li Kaigufang took a closer look and said with a smile: "My lord, why did you bring my Khitan painting! If you want to say that I have seen this painting, in the older generation, every time the clan went to war, they had to pay homage to the painting. I used this painting." "Oh? Tell me quickly." Di Renjie said happily when he heard the words, Li Yuanfang and Ayu looked at each other, and secretly thought that they had found the right person. Li Kaigu scratched his head and said: "This painting shows two treasures of my Khitan. If you want to talk about these two things, there is really a story. There is a story here. Don't make money. I can't tell it well. You have to be patient." Row."

Li Yuanfang smiled and said, "Naturally, I am patient." "This matter started several lifetimes ago. I don't know which dynasty it was. At that time, various small tribes on the grassland fought against each other, and the wars continued. It is said that in a certain war, one tribe was defeated by another tribe. Hundreds of warriors died in battle, and only one escaped. The warrior fled to the Laoha River, his body was wounded, and his horse died of exhaustion. The enemy will catch up again at any time. It is the darkest moment before dawn. The warrior looked up at the sky and saw two fiery red stars falling from the sky. He couldn't help sighing, "I die here today, the stars are for me And Luomo.' For a moment, he was disheartened and wanted to fall to the ground waiting to die. Suddenly he saw a man and a woman wearing fiery red clothes, each leading an ox and a horse drinking water by the river. The warrior felt strange. There is no one in this wilderness, and the herdsmen were not seen all the way just now. Could it be that he is already dead? Who would have thought that, the two seemed to know what was on his mind, and the woman said, "Look at the miserable condition of that warrior, he deserved to end his life." , but gave up on himself, how about we help him?" The man also said: "You and I have spent ninety-nine and eighty-one years before we can meet here for a moment. It is also fate that he saw you today, so I will give it to him each. A gift, let him help him." After finishing speaking, the two threw an object into the air, the man said: "I will give him a sun soul mirror", and the woman said: "I will give him a moon fine knife". Suddenly, the sky was full of light, and the mirror and knife rose in the air like the sun and the moon, which shocked the warrior. Hearing the sound of hoofbeats in the distance, the warrior woke up and realized that it was just a dream , was about to get up, but saw a dark bronze mirror and a shiny machete neatly placed on the grass next to him, overjoyed, he picked up the bronze mirror and the machete in one hand, at this moment The sky was about to dawn, and a miracle happened. I saw that the Laoha River in front of the warrior suddenly receded like a tide, and there was a shoal in front of him, which happened to be easy to cross the river. But the pursuers had arrived, and the shouts , Dozens of knives were swung at the warrior, and the warrior raised his bronze mirror to resist in desperation. The scimitar, after a burst of killing, broke through the encirclement, only to realize that the precious sword is extremely sharp, ordinary swords will break at the touch, and it is invincible! Everyone was defeated, so I had to watch the warrior cross the river."

Li Kai gesticulates and speaks with ease. When Di Renjie, Li Yuanfang and Ayu were all looking at him, Fang Jue stopped embarrassedly and said with a smile: "Don't laugh, my lord, because this story is from childhood. I heard the story told by the elders in the clan. In the past, on the prairie, this was the first story a boy heard since he was sensible. Everyone yearned for the two legendary treasures very much." Di Renjie chuckled and said, "I'm very engrossed in listening to it!" Ayu couldn't help asking: "Then what happened?" "Later, the warrior settled down on the fat grassland on the other side of the old Ha River, and then there were the eight tribes of Khitan, and they became stronger and stronger. In order not to forget the original, this story was passed down from generation to generation, and every time he went out to fight Before now, we must pay homage to these two immortals, so as to bless us to succeed in our mission."

"It turns out that the eight trees in this picture imply the eight tribes of Khitan." Di Renjie nodded. Li Kaigu suddenly sighed: "It's a pity that I don't have the chance to see these two treasures." Li Yuanfang wondered: "Why?" "It's been gone for a long time. It is said that during the Northern Qi Dynasty, our Khitan tribe was defeated by Gao Yang. More than 100,000 people were captured, and millions of miscellaneous animals were captured. Those two treasures were also taken away. There has been no news since then. The Khitan vitality He was seriously injured, so he had to attach himself to the northern Turks first, and then he surrendered to the Tang Dynasty." At this point, Li Kaigu was silent for a while, then remembered that he was originally a Khitan general, and if Di Renjie hadn't rescued him back then, he would have died long ago, so he couldn't help sighing .

When Ayu saw that he had calmed down, his tiger eyes were as calm as water. He didn't look like a rough man at first glance, but he had a kind of air. Standing beside Li Yuanfang with his hands behind his back, he saw that one of them opened and closed grandly, heroic and heroic. the general; the other is a modest gentleman who is introverted and as gentle as jade, and he can't help but secretly praise him. But Di Renjie got up to say goodbye, saying that today is urgent and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, and he will visit again some other day.Li Kai couldn't keep it, so he had to send it to the gate, Fang turned around angrily.
