After the two of them took care of their wounds and ate something, it was already late at night.
Fang Hetong was so sleepy that he went to bed early. Today, he was able to lead three hundred people to become the elite of a thousand people, all because of the blessing of the Meritorious Service Chapter. Blessing three hundred people consumes a lot of money, and it didn't take long for Fang Hetong to do so.
It only consumes most of the mana. Fortunately, Li Zhi has the Qi-nourishing elixir from the Four Saints Academy. Both the Four Saints Academy and Bai Feng Academy are Confucian cultivators, so the elixir is particularly easy to use. Taking one pill will not only restore the mana, but also cause hidden injuries.
Things got better. Although Fang Hetong's power was restored, his spirit was still exhausted, so he needed to rest.
The night was still long, Li Zhi was meditating and practicing, and Wei Yuan was reading under the lamp, corroborating each other with today's battle and the content in the book.
As the saying goes, what you learn on paper is only shallow in the end. Today, after a series of bloody battles with Bei Liao, Wei Yuan truly understood Bei Liao and gained a new understanding of the description of Bei Liao in the book. At this time, he was about to use the fresh knowledge
Strengthen and deepen your understanding.
As soon as it got light the next day, Li Zhi rushed back to Linxian with the corpses of his guards to send them back to Nanqi. Li Zhi paid special attention to his men, and was knifed in order to snatch these corpses. The guards who snatched them back
There were only six corpses, and the rest had to be left in the Liao Territory. If the corpses were left in the Liao Territory for more than a day, there would basically be no need to look for them. The living creatures in the Liao Territory are ferocious, and among other things, Liao horses also eat meat.
Throughout the morning, Wei Yuan and Fang Hetong were building city defenses and digging more pits. While Wei Yuan was working, he listened to Fang Hetong's talk about the current situation and the progress of the current war, and felt that he had gained a lot. Although Fang Hetong was in a state of poverty, he was still young.
In the past forty years, he had not even been able to hold an official position, but he was good at farming, teaching, and training and organizing the army. His analysis of the current situation was also sharp and original.
It's just that he can clearly analyze the current situation and officialdom and understand the principles, but he can't do it when it comes to himself. When he sees injustice, his blood easily surges, just like knowing that he can't win over a general.
But I still had to write that letter. It can only be said that it is because of my personality that I am not suitable for being an official.
Wei Yuan had been cultivating in Taichu Palace for the past ten years, and his understanding of the current situation was limited to books. At this time, he had an in-depth discussion with Fang He, and he understood the origin of many people's sufferings.
At noon, the aroma of the food began to waft. When Li Zhi left, he left behind many arrows and weapons, and even all the military rations. Now the men in Shayang Village not only have broth, but also rice mixed with Lingmi powder.
Eat polished rice and flour cakes. As long as you eat this kind of military rations for a month, a thin man will turn into a burly man. But when these men get their own rice, they always hide a little more, hoping to save more.
Send them to the wives and daughters in the next two villages. Wei Yuan repeatedly said several times that the military rations were sufficient, but to no avail.
During lunch, Wei Yuan asked Fang Hetong if he would like to serve as an official in Southern Qi. In fact, he would follow Li Zhi. Wei Yuan knew that Li Zhi always liked to recruit talented people, and if he could follow Li Zhi, Fang Hetong would be able to learn a lot.
A place of use.
At Sun Chaoen's dinner, even Wei Yuan could see that Fang He was not suitable for being an official by nature. Perhaps it would be more suitable for him to find Ming Zhu as an aide.
Fang Hetong hesitated and did not speak, but just ate silently.
Wei Yuan further advised: "The sage said that he will be immortal, and that he will establish virtue and meritorious service. Brother Fang, if you want to establish virtue, you must first have a position where you can show your talents. I think County Magistrate Sun is right on this point. Since Fang
Brother also has the heart to help the world and the people, so what is the difference between making a living for the people in the Southern Qi Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty? The more achievements you have made, you will naturally be praised by the world, and then your virtue will be a matter of course."
Fang Hetong said, "Brother Xian, don't you plan to do something good? I heard that it is the tradition of Taichu Palace to open up new territories. Brother Xian will soon become a Taoist priest. If he has such intention at that time, Brother Yu will definitely help him with all his strength."
!”
"Ah? Me?" Wei Yuan was startled, then shook his head and said: "I don't have any big ambitions. I just want to practice as quickly as possible and earn more immortal silver. In the future, I will probably assist my master when I expand my territory.
Elders, please receive your share of the money."
Fang Hetong was not disappointed, but said: "I used to be like you. I just wanted to read more books, farm the fields in my free time, take care of my wife, children, and children, and just spend my life peacefully. But a few years ago, when the Liao barbarians invaded,
Only then did I realize that living a stable life in troubled times is a luxury. So I always thought, why do we, the scholars, read so many principles, and why do we practice every day to achieve great power in our bodies?"
After hearing this, Wei Yuan suddenly remembered what the Taoist priest said when he first entered Taichu Palace and told about the life of his ancestor and the origin of Taichu Palace: "I, the monk of Taichu Palace, have cultivated magical powers to open up new territories.
Evolve the world and fight for an extra place for our human race to thrive!"
This sentence was so resounding that it had a big impact on Wei Yuan's heart at that time. However, after ten years of hard training, he gradually forgot about it. At this time, hearing Fang Hetong's words, Wei Yuan could not help but recall his state of mind at that time.
Fang Hetong looked up at the sky and said slowly: "The sages have said: establish a heart for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, carry on the unique knowledge for the past saints, and create peace for all generations! This is the meaning of reading, and the name of the Four Saints Academy of the Immortal Sect is
This is also where the Four Saints come from. But my dear brother is right, if you want to be virtuous, you must first have a position. When the Liao barbarians are defeated, if General Li is willing to recruit him, I will serve him."
"That's good!" Wei Yuan was really happy. Fang He was talented and learned, so he couldn't be buried in the little Quyang County for the rest of his life.
Fang Hetong looked at Wei Yuan and said: "One day my wise brother will figure it out and prepare to expand the territory, then my foolish brother will definitely come thousands of miles away to join us no matter what position he holds!"
"Ah? Isn't Li Zhi's place good? Before he left, he told me that if you go, you will be the leader of the advisers." Wei Yuan was a little confused.
"General Li has a distinguished family background, great fortune, and the heart of a king. Although he is young now, he has shown great potential and will become a great leader in the future."
Wei Yuan did not expect Fang Hetong to have such a high opinion of Li Zhi, and was even more puzzled: "Wouldn't it be better if Brother Li could become a human king? Then Brother Fang, you will be the minister of the dragon."
Fang Hetong shook his head: "General Li is still young now, still gentle and humble, willing to recruit talented people, and able to listen to unfavorable advice. In the future, things will be different when hegemony is achieved. The heart of a king is not always a good thing for ministers.
It may not be good for the people. If I encounter something that I can't bear to see in the future, I will probably be honest and forthright in my character. General Li can tolerate me now, but that may not be the case then."
At this point, Xu realized that the topic was a bit heavy, so Fang Hetong smiled and said: "Besides, if one day our achievements are so great that General Li may not allow me to retire and return home."
Wei Yuan also smiled and said: "Then you still want to defect to me? Li Zhi can't tolerate you, how can I tolerate you? To tell you the truth, I, Wei, will kill people with just one swing of my butcher knife!"
Fang Hetong snorted, but didn't believe it: "With your temperament, even if I point at you and scold you in public, the most you can do is beat me because of our past friendship. I still have a third article.
, fighting may not necessarily scare you!"
Wei Yuan didn't like hearing this: "Don't talk about the third article, even if you still have thirty articles, I can suppress you! Let me tell you this, in the future, if my Dao foundation is only the heaven level, then
I can’t even forgive myself!”
Fang Hetong laughed loudly, thinking it was Wei Yuan who was bragging. After a round of bragging, the relationship between the two became closer.
However, Wei Yuan's last sentence was really not bragging. He was now burdened with tens of millions of huge debts. If Daoji could only reach the heaven level and there was no hope of repaying the debt in this life, Wei Yuan would have started to clean up the family if Zhang Sheng did not forgive himself.
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and the haze swept away a lot. A formation disk in Wei Yuan's arms suddenly became hot and vibrated. Wei Yuan stood up and immediately took out the formation disk.
"What's going on?" Fang He asked.
Wei Yuan said in a deep voice: "Someone is asking for help!"
