Chapter 797 Chapter 797: It's too late【Ask for a monthly ticket】
Shen Tang didn't raise his head: "I'm feeding the ants."
Gong Xiqiu raised his clothes and squatted down. It was only when I got closer that I realized that there were indeed fine and dense "red dots" moving on the ground, and the soldiers were divided into several groups to carry something. Those were the pieces of cake that Shen Tang swept up in the corner of the food table after eating the morning food.
She fed these to the ants.
Gong Xichou asked, "What can the ants feed?"
Shen Tang threw another piece of cake to the ant: "Aren't I too boring? Wuhui and the others are already mature staff members who can handle official duties and arrange tasks by themselves. Wei Yuanyuan, Uncle Qian and them are all Once a mature general, he will open up wasteland and farm fields, split mountains to open roads, open canals to divert water... Alas, won’t my protagonist be idle? It’s very boring.”
Gong Xichou: "..."
It sounds really boring, and he can relate to it.
Before Gong Xiqiu volunteered to invite the sacred object to play marbles, Shen Tang was looking at the ants on the ground and said, "Have you ever wondered what we look like in the eyes of ants?"
Gong Xiqiu is fine, why would he think about such a problem?
However, since Shen Tang asked, he thought about it.
"Maybe it's a mountain, maybe it's a god. The food that Mama feeds them is the blessing from the god?" He thought seriously, "We are to ants what mountains are to humans? It has to be so high that it reaches the sky, so high that the naked eye can see it." An unseen mountain?"
It is not easy for ants to find food.
In the process of searching for food, they have to face many natural enemies.
Mama casually drops a bit of cake crumbs, and it takes dozens or even tens of ants to move back to the ant nest. They don't need to bear the risk of death, and they can easily get enough rations for a long time. How is it not a gift from the gods?
Shen Tang looked at the diligent ants that lined up in a long line, and put down a piece of cake crumbs on their way back to the nest: "Your words are also reasonable, but I have heard another way of saying that they can't actually see to us."
Gong Xiqiu was surprised: "Can't you see it?"
Shen Tang said: "It is said that in their perception, the world is a plane, only left and right but no up and down."
Gong Xiqiu blinked quickly, unable to imagine.
"Small ants can only see one or two knuckles away from you, and big ants can only see six inches. Their eyesight is not enough to see us, and our naked eyes can't see the end of the sky..." Shen Tang will Throw all the remaining cake crumbs into the ant colony, clap your hands, get up and ask, "What is at the end of the sky?"
Gong Xiqiu doesn't like to think about this kind of problem.
Nobody likes being an ant, does they?
He smiled and patted Shen Tang on the shoulder: "Go playing marbles?"
Shen Tang said: "Are you bored?"
"I'm bored, Mama is bored too, just right!"
Shen Tang's level of playing marbles is not weak, which makes Gong Xichou feel like meeting his opponent, but it's a pity that it happened many years ago, and it's just a good time to revisit it now. Pushed away by him, Shen Tang laughed and said, "Gong Xichou, how old are you?"
Gong Xiqiu is plausible: "I can't love my previous hobbies when I get older? How can there be such a reason!"
Don't say now—
Seventy or eighty years later, he still likes to play marbles.
Shen Tang said: "Can you see it with your eyes?"
Blind and still want to beat her?
"I'm blind, not deaf." Hehehe, martial arts fighters can also use their hearing and perception of air flow to judge the azimuth and distance, and blindness does not affect their performance.
Shen Tang: "..."
She doesn't quite understand why Gong Xichou likes this kind of exercise with all fours on the ground and buttocks up so much?
Gong Xiqiu sat cross-legged on the stone, propped the hem of his clothes on his legs, and built a platform, then untied the small cloth bag at his waist, and poured out round and full beads from it. He counted ten for Shen Tang, and ten for himself.
"By the way, Mama, I brought you back a good seedling this time." Gong Xiqiu handed out the bead, and mentioned Yun Ce casually, "Depending on the situation, you should know him."
Shen Tang reached out to take it: "Who?"
It is not easy for Gong Xiqiu to evaluate "good seedlings".
Gong Xiqiu said: "His name is Yun Ce."
Shen Tang was quite surprised: "Yun Yuanmou? Didn't he return to Huang Xiguang's account? Why did you bring him back? Didn't you use force to tie him back?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "How can this be? When I found Luan's group, he was also there, and his injuries looked embarrassing."
Shen Tang became more and more confused.
As far as she knows, Yun Ce has been away for a long time, and it is not difficult to find Huang Xiguang's soldiers with his strength. How could he be seriously injured and mix with Luan's team? He was actually brought back by Gong Xiqiu? This is completely inconsistent with her understanding of Yun Ce.
Shen Tang laughed and said, "Do you know what it means to be 'in Cao Ying's heart in Han'? Yun Ce is loyal to Huang Xiguang, and Huang Xiguang has nothing to do with him, so it is impossible for him to switch to someone else. It is estimated that there was an accident on the way back to the team. Waiting for him I still have to leave after my injury is healed. Although I have a good impression of Yun Ce, no matter how good he is, he is still an enemy, and it is too dangerous to stay by my side..."
Yun Ce knew too much, she could only silence it.
Gong Xiqiu said: "He betrayed Huang Lie."
His sentence was beyond Shen Tang's expectation, the aim of the finger popped out was deviated, and failed to hit Gong Xichou's bead. Gong Xiqiu Meizizi took her beads away: "The one under Mama's tent is called Luan Xin, he has a personal guard by his side, but he can speak well of Mama to Yun Ce, it's not difficult for you to take Yun Ce under the tent. "
Shen Tang: "..."
Going in both directions is the eternal God?
Shen Tang said: "Alright, I'll pay attention later."
Although she didn’t really lack brave warriors after the dragon slaying game, but Yun Ce was willing to come, so what reason did she not accept? As for talents, the more the better, not to mention that this kid is handsome. It will be comfortable and eye-catching for morning meetings or combat meetings in the future.
Inexplicably, she suddenly understood why beauty is also one of the thresholds for being an official. If she were the emperor, she would see handsome faces with different styles every day, old, middle-aged and young, each with its own charm. Jiuliu also has motivation.
Hey, she decided—
Every day for the rest of my life begins with seeing a group of handsome men and women.
Gong Xichou is not Gu Chi, and he doesn't know what Shen Tang is thinking at the moment, so he continued: "This Yun Ce has a background."
Shen Tang asked: "What background?"
Gong Xiqiu's aiming head was as stable as ever, only a crisp sound was heard, and the bead in his hand jumped over a roadblock, flew a beautiful arc, and hit the target: "I wasn't very sure before, but Yun Ce's movement is the same as A paragraph in the ethnographic record is very consistent, his surname is 'Yun', this surname is rare, so it is almost inseparable - behind him, there is very likely a 19th-class Guan Neihou, or even a 20th-class Chehou .”
Shen Tang: "???"
Shen Tang performed abnormally for the second time: "What do you mean - you want me to use Yun Ce's line to win over the people behind him?"
Gong Xichou thinks too highly of her.
Not to mention the 20th class Chehou, even the 19th class Guan Neihou, she can't handle it! Even if it can be done well, it can't afford it. I don't have the capital to attract the other party, nor the strength to suppress the other party. A boss of this level, can't he do it alone?
Gong Xiqiu turned his face away, with the braids hanging down his shoulders, as if he was shocked and puzzled by her answer: "When did I say that? I just asked Mama to hold Yun Ce and Xian Yujian. If anything happens, kill them!"
What will she do if she is fine and kills herself?
Gong Xichou: "This Yun is difficult to deal with, and Mama's status is destined to make him helpless."
Shen Tang: "...Why?"
Gongxiqiu replied: "Because he has enmity with the Gongxi tribe, and it can't be regarded as enmity, but the relationship is not good. The most important thing is that he came out of Shiwu a hundred years ago. According to the ethnographic records, his biological mother I was born in a certain tribe in Shiwu, and married to Beimo due to political needs. I lived in Beimo for more than ten years, and then fled back to Shiwu because of some accidents."
Of course, he was persecuted and fled into the pass.
Although she never went back after that, it is a certainty that Shiwu belongs to the mother family. On the other hand, Mama, she has no idea what she will do to Shiwu? Coupled with the fact that she is still a sacred object of the Gongxi tribe, the two sides are naturally hostile.
Shen Tang: "...Shiwu still has this connection?"
Why didn't he come out when he attacked Shiwu?
If Shi Wuyou exists like this, how can Yonggu Pass be defended? Can't we just stay in closed doors all the time and keep our ears shut?
Gong Xiqiu nodded affirmatively: "Yes!"
Then he said: "He didn't help Shiwu, it may be because he has no feelings for Shiwu, or he doesn't know about it at all, but the most likely reason is that he can't come."
Shen Tang: "...can't come?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "It's locked up."
There is a strange rule in the family rules, but all Gongxi people must avoid five places once they go out for activities. One of them is the man's lair. Gong Xiqiu also read the old priest's handwriting, and knew that it was tricky.
Shen Tang: "...Doesn't that mean it can't threaten me?"
Gong Xiqiu sighed: "I guess it won't last long."
The Gongxi clan now has three or two kittens, and the constraints on the five barren mountains were weakening day by day. It will be a matter of time before those old guys come out of the mountains. As for the things suppressed under the barren hills?
Hehehe, a hundred years, no matter how stubborn Gu King is, how long can he persist in living under the condition of only getting out and not getting in? According to the speculation of the old priest Jimo Xing, it is estimated that it died decades ago. It's just that the guardians of the five barren hills don't know...
Once they come out and find out the truth, it will be interesting. Gong Xiqiu is considering whether to hide his name for a while, and wait until his strength grows enough to fight with them before coming out.
Otherwise, I can't bear the revenge.
Shen Tang didn't know about all the details.
All she knew was that she might be in trouble.
"How long is this... how long will it be closed?"
Gongxi Qiu spread his hands: "I'm not the high priest, so I don't know the situation of the seal. The shortest is three to five years, and the longest is thirty to fifty years? Alas, how could the ancestors of those years guess that the Gongxi clan would be wiped out? They will be imprisoned to death for that unforeseen disaster! Naturally, they won’t have to worry about being avenged by old things from hundreds of years ago.”
Shen Tang: "..."
She finally understood that the hatred lies with the Gongxi people.
"Is it too late for me to break up with the Gongxi people?"
Gong Xiqiu showed a mouthful of white and neat teeth: "It's too late, you are a sacred object in the clan. At that time, even if Mama wants to lie back in the coffin, it will be too late. They promise to dig out the ashes of the clan one by one. of…"
Shen Tang: "..."
It’s true that every dog passing by will be slapped.
She lowered her voice: "Why did you say it now?"
Gong Xiqiu is very honest: "I forgot before."
It is the job of the high priest to strengthen the seal. Before that, when the old priest of Jimo Xing was still there, he would go out in disguise every twenty years to see if the seal was firm, and if it was not firm, he would paste another layer. This is also what he saw from the manuscript.
Shen Tang: "..."
—
Gong Xiqiu patted his **** and left after completing the task, leaving Luan Xin and Luan Cheng the job of arranging for Luan's group. Luan Cheng hadn't seen his mother for a long time, and he couldn't restrain himself. The mother and son cried together. The personal guard also rushed to Luan Xin's side to salute.
"Parents."
Luan Xin withdrew his gaze: "Thank you for your hard work."
In fact, he didn't really want to see this elder sister, not that he hated it, but that he had been away from home for many years, and he didn't know what status and attitude to use when seeing her again. Luan Xin turned around and was about to leave, but the lady of the Luan family saw him, pushed her son away and hurried forward.
"Righteousness!"
Luan Xin could only stop, turned around and bowed: "Mr.
Hearing that Luan Xin called her "Nvjun" instead of the intimate "Sister", she was startled at first, then smiled wryly. After Luan Xin adopted him, he got along with him as siblings for many years, and knew Luan Xin's temperament. After that incident that year, his title has not been changed back. Now, I am ashamed to ask him to change it back: "Thank you for saving Ah Cheng."
She once thought Luan Cheng was dead.
Without Luan Xin, Luan Cheng would have died.
Now he has saved himself again... What Luan Shi owes to Luan Xin now is far greater than what Luan Xin received from Luan Shi back then.
For a while, she didn't know how to express it.
"He was not the only one who was rescued." Luan Xin's face was cold, he didn't come to rescue Luan Cheng specially, he just happened to meet, "I'm busy with business, if the lady has nothing else to do, I won't disturb your mother and son reunion. Farewell."
Luan Xin left with his personal guards.
The female gentleman was stunned in place, watching her off for a long time.
It wasn't until Luan Xin's back disappeared that Luan Cheng dared to speak in a low voice: "Aniang, let's do it this way, the two families are not at ease when we are so close. Although the events of that year have passed, the traces have always remained on uncle. Dao Kan is not easy to move forward."
Whether it’s A Niang or Uncle, both of them are emotionally introverted people, and they will start to twist when they get into a dead end.
It is really embarrassing for the two of them to insist on tenderness.
The female monarch poked her son's eyebrows with her finger, leaving a white fingerprint: "Heh, you're young, and you know a lot?"
Luan Cheng said: "Uncle has a heart knot."
It is still an old knot that cannot be untied.
The female monarch heard the words and sighed, looking lonely. They all understood the situation back then, and they also knew the difficulties faced by each other, but knowing the difficulties does not mean that they can accept the reality calmly. This is the key to the knot: "Oh, why don't I know?"
We can only meet less in the future to avoid embarrassment for both parties.
It is enough that Gongyi is willing to recognize Ah Cheng as his nephew.
Each went back to each house, and each found his own mother.
Yun Ce also went to find his junior brother.
Found a pitch-black junior in the barren field.
