When Li Shuanglin's father was young, he ran a business outside and learned to read from the accountant. Later, when his father passed away and his mother had no one to take care of him, he rushed back to this village to start a family and guard the ancestral grave. .

This can be seen from the name he gave his son.Among the names of a bunch of grassroots donkeys, the brothers Li Chenglin and Li Shuanglin felt very high-level when they were reported.

16-year-old Li Shuanglin didn’t know why he wanted to join the army. Since the beginning of the year, he has been eager to move, and he has been testing with his family. Last month, General Huguo gave a lesson to the barbarians in southern Xinjiang, and then he had to go through half of the city to return to the court. As soon as the news came in, Li Shuanglin was like a big blister on his buttocks, and he couldn't sit still at all.

Today, Li Shuanglin was a little carried away when he ran into Jiubaijiu, who looked like they were from the city. He forgot that his mother was firmly opposed to him leaving home.

So after the aunt patted the table, the atmosphere at the dinner table became a little awkward for a while.

The male owner of the Li family had dark skin, and after being called by his wife, he stopped moving and did not speak.

There are not so many rules on the dining table in the small village. The aunt was annoyed while pinching eggs for Ji Xiang: "Did he lose his food or drink at home? I can't do the work in the field! Tell his brother a daughter-in-law during the New Year's Eve." Shouldn’t he be the one to do it?! If you go home after the war…”

Jixiang couldn't understand, so he didn't bother to study what they were arguing about, and concentrated on picking up the egg yolks to eat, and skimming the whites into Jiubaijiu's bowl.

Li Shuanglin seemed to be very jealous of his mother, and tried to defend himself several times but swallowed it back.

"That... the man's ambition is everywhere." Jiubaijiu thought for a long time before he could hold back a few words: "It's a good thing for young people to see the world. Besides, it's considered peaceful now. Nanban won't dare to come here in ten years. Even if they go Being a soldier may not necessarily lead to war..."

"Really?" The aunt stopped moving: "Is there really no war?"

Nine hundred and ninety-nine thought about it. "This time the general came back with the barbarian's petition for peace. It will be very difficult for the barbarians to invade again in 15 years, let alone ten years." One reason is that he has a famously stingy military adviser by his side - all the peace agreements drafted by him, the opening of border commercial road agreements, border trade, etc., all take the best advantage, and the real mosquitoes pass by. You also have to break the role of the thigh.This time, Nanman must have been blackmailed enough, and it will take a long time to make a comeback.

"Master is a sensible person." The male master of the Li family finally spoke. "I can still do it. If there is no one in the family, there will be no loss of an acre of land."

Li Shuanglin raised his head in disbelief.

"Even if you are tied up, you will bite the rope and run out sooner or later." The host stood up and helped the old lady up.

The old lady has a small appetite and has already eaten. She has been looking at everyone with a smile, and she doesn't know how much she understands.

Li Shuanglin lowered his head, picked up the bowl and put it down, put it down and picked it up, back and forth several times, finally got up and strode forward, stopping the old man who wanted to help grandma into the house to rest.

The aunt's eyes were red, she went to see her younger son, and reached out to clean up the dishes.

Behind her, Li Shuanglin kowtowed three times in front of grandma, and the sound rang out over the hoarse cicadas outside the house.

……

Nine hundred and nine is actually very rich.

There was a mezzanine under the overcrowded carriage, which contained bank notes and a lot of silver that were common to all banknotes, including two gold ingots thrown into it by Jixiang because his clothes were wet and there was no place to put them.

Jiubaijiu got into the carriage, lay on the base, turned on the switch, reached out to touch the silver, took out two broken pieces, estimated that there were more than five taels in total, and took it as a thank-you gift for the aunt, who was so scared that the aunt backed away two steps.

"Oh, I dare not take the money for two bowls of rice! Young masters don't dislike mediocrity..."

Jiubaijiu smiled brighter than Hua'er: "Well, we have been walking in the mountains for several days, and the dry food has long since disappeared. Auntie saved our lives. And..."

Jiubaijiu compared Jiubaili: "My aunt and I bought a bag of millet beans to feed the pigeons. This is millet money."

"It doesn't take that much! I'm afraid the coarse grains grown at home will spoil the young master's good pigeons...!"

One tael of silver can buy nearly two hundred catties of rice, and nine hundred miles can take away ten catties of beans and millet. How dare the aunt charge so much money.

Seeing that the aunt refused to take it, Jiubaijiu stuffed the money into Jixiang's hand: "Give this to grandma to play with."

Ji Xiang was not shy when he was young, so he ran into the inner room of the family.

Both the aunt and the Li brothers were stunned, and it was too late to catch up.

Once the things were in the hands of the old people, they would not dare to ask grandma to get them back anyway.The old lady had never seen big money in her life, she just felt that the silver that Jixiang brought in to give her was so shiny and beautiful, she squinted her eyes and looked at the light, then turned her head and smiled and handed it to Li Chenglin who followed in.

Two pieces of silver, one for each of the brothers.

The two brothers were at a loss, they didn't dare to give back to Jiubaijiu what grandma gave in person.

Jiubaijiu had already picked up auspiciousness and called Ao Bai: "Let's go to the city! After halfway through the city, there will be a road leading to Yangzhou!"

The aunt hastily piled several bags on the shaft of the carriage.

Jiubaijiu gave a lot of money, and logically speaking, she didn't want to accept it.But Li Shuanglin had already obtained permission to go out of the mountains, and money was needed to go out, and even more money was needed for daily chores at home... From the standpoint of housekeeping, she didn't make any effort to refuse.

It was because of this that the aunt felt very guilty and thought that she had taken advantage of it, so she piled all the new rice and leftover bacon in the car.

Li Chenglin sent them to the entrance of the village, saying that his brother would leave tomorrow.

He also said thank you Jiubaijiu for giving them such a large sum of money.

Jiubaijiu bid farewell to Li Chenglin enthusiastically, then sat in the carriage and stared at the pieces of bacon in a daze.

Five taels of silver was not enough for a pot of tea in the imperial city.

He thought he had considered it very carefully, a small amount of money should not scare people, but also express gratitude.

But the Li family thanked him for giving him "such a large sum of money" to their family, saying that he was a very good person.

"They...are really poor." Jiubaijiu said.

Ao Bai also squeezed in.The sun was too strong outside, and he had carte blanche to drive for nine hundred miles.

"What does it mean to be poor?" Ji Xiang sat down in the car and did not move when he was full.

"It means that there is no money." Ao Bai felt that he understood the common sense of the world.

Qian... Jixiang blinked.

When he was in Xihai, Ao Bai said that ingots are money.

"Then tell them earlier, I can give them an ingot." In this way, they will not be poor.

Jixiang has been carrying two ingots for so long, and he has had enough watching and playing, and it is beginning to feel cumbersome.

Jiubaijiu squeezed his face: "Yuanbao? Five taels of silver will scare them, will they dare to give gold letters?"

"Li Shuanglin wants to be a soldier..." Ao Bai thoughtfully: "Is it interesting to be a soldier?"

Jiubaijiu curled his lips: "I don't know about other places, but if he wants to join the army of the General Protecting the Country, it will be no fun at all."

When Jiubaijiu was not called Tianjizi or Taoist Xuanji, he was once ordered to accompany him to watch the iron-blooded black knight practice.

The people around were watching with enthusiasm and amazement, Jiubaijiu only felt that a party of inhuman monsters was being held in the school grounds.

Ao Bai also learned to lie down auspiciously, and Jiubaijiu was so crowded that he could only sit in the corner with his feet curled up.

Looking at Ao Bai's face, Ji Xiang suddenly felt that Ao Bai looked a bit like Ao Guang in a certain way.

But seriously, Ao Guang is stern and Ao Bai is exquisite, there is actually no comparison.

But looking at Ao Bai Jixiang, he suddenly thought of Ao Guang.

What is Ao Guang doing now?The frequency of the carriage shaking made Jixiang drowsy.

Ao Guang, don't find him sneaking out again... He'll be back in two days...

Jixiang thought about it, and snored a little.

……

Jixiang doesn't know what Ao Guang is doing, but Ao Guang always knows what Jixiang is doing.

The Skypeeping Mirror was detained by Ao Guang, and Ao Guang knew about the little pig farting in the world.

If Ji Xiang returns to the East China Sea now, he must be a little unrecognizable.

The original scene of sea and sky with white clouds and blue sea has changed. The sea monsters who have always regarded the dragon race as their enemies secretly gathered, and the black clouds spreading from a corner that was once heavily sealed slowly dyed the sky of the East China Sea into a dark color. .

There were more and more ominous omens, but the Dragon Palace remained motionless. It was just that Jiumeng was missing, which made Ao Guang somewhat busier.

Bai Ze went back to Kunlun, and when he came back, he asked Ao Guang to mark out a place in the palace for him to grow flowers.

"Nine turns to return to the sun." Bai Ze replaced the herbs smoked in Jiumeng's room every day, and reported the progress to Ao Guang. "But that kind of divine grass is no longer available in Kunlun. I asked Lu Wu for some substitutes, but I don't know if it will work."

Jiu Meng was taken aback.

I don't know why, but I was just shocked.

The soul is still there, but the po is separated from Jiumeng's body.Bai Ze has great supernatural powers, went to heaven and earth, and quickly retrieved Jiumeng's soul that had drifted away from the East China Sea, but he couldn't return to his body no matter what.

No immortal has ever encountered such a strange thing.

Nine Turns Returning to the Sun is the divine grass that grew from the heart of the earth when the world was still in chaos. With it, even if the soul is scattered, it can be replenished again.Jiumeng was just divided into souls, and Bai Ze was very sure that if he had the Nine Turns to Return Yang, he would be able to bring Jiumeng's soul back into his body.

But this is the real "legendary" fairy grass. Even Lu Wu, who has lived for so long, has only heard of it. No one can say for sure that Nine Turns Returning Yang really existed.

Reluctantly, Bai Ze could only search, and at the same time, he searched for some fairy grasses that [maybe] could exert similar effects to the Nine Turns Returning Yang in Xuanpu to try one by one.

"If you really can't find it," Ao Guang said slowly, "when 'he' comes out..."

"'He' may not be able to come out!" Bai Ze rarely interrupted him. "'He' can't come out either!"

"I moved hands with you back then." Bai Ze turned around and looked into Ao Guang's eyes. "You don't have confidence in yourself, but I'm not like you. I think I used the most ruthless means at the time. If he can break through this way, then I don't mind doing it again."

Ao Guang was silent for a while.

"Jiu Meng was influenced by his dragon energy, so he had the opportunity to cultivate immortality." Ao Guang said. "If he can't find Nine Turns Returning Yang, then he may never wake up."

Bai Ze lowered his head to look at Jiu Meng, his long hair was hanging down to Jiu Meng's pillow, for a moment he couldn't tell whose hair was scattered on the bed.

"Jiu Meng will wake up." Bai Ze stretched out his hand to tuck Jiu Meng's quilt. "He can't come out either. I've always been certain of these two things."
