Chapter 573 Nezha Is Born! [Seeking Monthly Votes]

Huangfusong still couldn't believe his ears:

"Brother Xian, can I really survive? Will I continue to lead troops to fight?"

Zhang Xi smiled and said:

"If you don't want to be tired and plan to take a rest, His Majesty will make other arrangements. If you feel that you have not done enough and still want to continue to fight on the battlefield, then continue to work hard. I hope the old general will not blame the court for not being considerate of the elderly."

These words made Huangfu Songlao burst into tears:

"If I really can live for a few more years, I will not be able to repay His Majesty's great kindness!"

Although he was stationed in Xiliang in the past, he was always stationed near Chencang and did not go to the plateau. As for the original work, after he annihilated Dong Zhuo's family, he never led an army again and has been serving as an idle post in Chang'an.

But now that I had reached a high-altitude area in one fell swoop, coupled with the fatigue of traveling and traveling all the way, my body collapsed immediately.

Huangfu Jianshou did not expect that the imperial court would take the initiative to send Sikong to extend his father's life. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Xi to thank him for extending his life.

"My dear nephew, please don't thank me. Your Majesty expresses gratitude to the veteran general for his hard work and has specifically asked the gods for help. You should thank your Majesty, Zhang Tianshi, and Empress Nuwa."

Outside the house, Sima Lang, who had come with him, was setting up the offering table with Huangfu Li and others.

The situation was urgent, and there was no time to make offerings such as San Sheng, so I could only put some snacks such as Wangwang snow cakes, Shuanghui ham sausages, and country bumpkin eggs as an emergency.

Fortunately, Lao Zhang also likes to eat these things and doesn't mind.

Finally, after the offerings are placed, the incense burner is placed in the middle and the incense candles are inserted.

Zhang Xi stood on the side of the altar holding the imperial edict and solemnly read to everyone present:

"Huangfu Song, the commander-in-chief of Xiliang in the Han Dynasty, killed the national traitors, conquered his homeland, and promoted the prestige of our country. In recognition of his hard work and merits, he was specially granted the title of Marquis of Wuwei, opened the mansion, and established the three divisions of Yitong..."

Although it is about extending one's life span, one should not say it out loud. Instead, one should be rewarded first.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Huangfu Song killed Zhang Jiao's younger brother Zhang Bao during the Yellow Turban Rebellion and was named Huaili Marquis by Emperor Ling. In various classics of later generations, Huangfu Song was also commemorated as Huaili County Marquis.

However, he did not serve as a county marquis for long. Because he refused to bribe Zhang Rang, he was demoted to a township marquis. When he came to Xiliang to be the governor, Liu Xie made him a township marquis, which was half a rank.

Now upgraded again and became the county marquis of Wuwei County, the old general returned to the top rank of marquis.

Unlike the previous Huaili Hou, the two words Wuwei not only represented the court's affirmation of Huangfu Song, but also pointed out the focus of future work.

Use force to establish power and rule Xiliang!

In addition to Huangfu Song, other generals also received more or less rewards. For example, Huangfu Song's son Huangfu Jianshou was knowledgeable but did not like being an official. This time, he was appointed as an assistant professor at Chang'an University, specifically responsible for providing good Mr. Sima Hui took charge, so he was able to make the best use of his talents.

After reading all the rewards, Zhang Xi took the lead and knelt down to the altar table to respectfully invite Zhang Daoling.

Lao Zhang then transformed into a Taoist priest with a body of thousands of feet, and appeared majestically in the air. Half of the people in Liangzhou could see his figure. Regardless of Han people or foreigners, they all involuntarily knelt down to worship the old god.

Zhang Daoling said to Huangfu Song:

"General Huangfu's achievements in opening up new territories are all seen by the queen. This time, I have ordered you to extend your life for twenty years. I hope that the old general will kill more enemies and regain my homeland of the Han Dynasty as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Heavenly Master!"

Zhang Daoling pointed at Huangfu Song with a fly whisk, and a soft golden light shone through. Huangfu Song felt that his body was getting better, as if he had returned to the years before the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

No, it was earlier than the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it should be the period of the Northern Governor.

Twenty years later, the middle-aged Confucian scholar at that time became an old white-haired general. Now that he has returned to the physical state of that period, the old Huangfu immediately developed the arrogance of a young man.

After the life extension was completed, Zhang Daoling asked:

"How does it feel?"

Huangfusong bent down and spit out a few mouthfuls of thick phlegm. He suddenly felt relieved and energetic. He cupped his hands and replied:

"The last general can go into battle to kill the enemy, kill the general and capture the flag!"

Zhang Daoling laughed loudly:

"Let those who kill the enemy go free in advance. Your Majesty ordered me to take you to the plateau for a visit. Without further ado, let's set off now."

After saying that, he waved, and the old general Huangfu Song flew up, and a faint divine light appeared around his body. This was the protective aura that Zhang Daoling added to him to prevent him from being blown by the cold wind in the sky.

The two of them headed west side by side in the air, and soon crossed Qinghai Lake, and even the Chaka Salt Lake was in sight.

"My country, the Han Dynasty, is so magnificent!"

Huangfu Song sighed in admiration, then took out his telescope and began to observe the landscape below.

Zhang Daoling sighed:

"As expected of an old general who commands the three armies, he suddenly reached the sky. Instead of looking at the scenery or the sky, he lowered his head and studied the topography."

Huangfusong thought it was normal:

"As a general, only by understanding the mountains, rivers and rivers can you better command the three armies... Could you please Heavenly Master to move to the left? Is the source of the Yellow River below?"

"Yes, this is known as the source of the Three Rivers, and even the Yangtze River originates from here."

"The Yellow River is the mother river of the Chinese nation. Since it originates here, it means that this place is our homeland of China. We will surely restore this place one day and let the mother river be unified."

After writing down the nearby landforms, Zhang Daoling continued to fly westward and came to the vast uninhabited land.

"There is no one here?"

"The drought and lack of rain, coupled with the high mineral content, made it impossible to plant, so it was abandoned... The Qiang people would stay briefly when changing places, but usually they would leave in a hurry."

mine?

Hearing this word, Huangfu Song took out the plateau map of the real world and made a special mark.

Then, they arrived on the snowy plain, and people appeared below, but they were all savages who ate raw meat and drank blood. There were also a small number of Qiang people, who used these locals as slaves.

"It turns out that the plateau is lush and green, with abundant rainfall... Does barley come from here?"

"Yes, when the Han army arrives, His Royal Highness the Son of Heaven will give us barley seeds, which can then be brewed into barley wine and sold at a high price to the dignitaries in Chang'an to increase the income of the people in the plateau."

Zhang Daoling just mentioned it casually, but Huangfu Song, an honest man, began to seriously think about the feasibility of this matter:

"If it is sold at a high price, will anyone buy it?"

Old Zhang smiled and said:

"Just say it can nourish the kidneys and strengthen the waist, and there will definitely be many people who will buy it... Of course, for people who like literature and art, it can also be said to cleanse the mind and purify the soul, and they like this the most."

Huangfu Song secretly took note and saw a huge mountain range running across the north and south below. The snow on the top of the mountain seemed to have not melted for billions of years:

"Is this the Himalayas?"

"Yes, this is the roof of the world. Beyond here and to the southwest, there is a warm and humid plain area, rich in various spices."

Spices?

Huangfu Song marked it without saying anything. It belongs to the Han Dynasty. This place will also belong to the Han Dynasty in the future.

The two crossed Mount Everest and came to Nepal, the spiritual hometown of many literary youths. It was obviously much warmer here, but the people were still in a state of eating raw meat and drinking blood, and they were in urgent need of rescue.

Then came the Ganges Plain and various tropical rainforests. Huangfu Song felt that it was very suitable for growing rice. If they were all reclaimed into rice fields, wouldn’t they have rice every day?

Seeing this, Zhang Daoling had completed his mission and could take the old general back.

However, seeing that Huangfu Song was very interested, he went directly east from the Ganges Plain, looked at the Bay of Bengal, and looked at the Lancang River Alluvial Plain and the Mekong River Alluvial Plain, followed by Hainan Island, walked along the coastline, and then went up along the Yangtze River. Finally, he went to Hebei and returned to the sky above Linqiang City.

"Yizhen, how do you feel after this walk?"

"I sweat a lot in hot places, and the snow blocks the door in cold places. My Han Dynasty is indeed vast... But it is still a bit stretched to support so many people. We must take back the lost homeland!"

Well, although the land is vast and rich in resources, the per capita land area is the lowest in the world. As a general commanding three armies, I have to reflect more in the future!

Zhang Daoling slowly sent Huangfu Song to the ground and said to the soldiers below:

"I hope you can work together, fight bravely, and recover my Chinese homeland as soon as possible... Goodbye!"

After speaking, his figure turned into a thousand feet of rosy clouds and disappeared between heaven and earth. All the Han people in Liangzhou were so excited that they burst into tears, while those foreigners prayed desperately to the gods they believed in.

In the sky, Xuandu looked at Zhang Daoling with a smile and said:

"You are very good at playing with the thousand-foot-high rays of light?"

"It's just a trivial trick. Although the gods cannot directly interfere in human affairs, it is still okay to show up occasionally to scare the villains..."

Hearing this, Xuandu also wanted to show up.

Dizang came up with a bad idea:

"During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, unmarried women liked to worship the statue of Master Xuandu to pray for peach blossoms to bloom. If you are interested, just go to the Sui and Tang world to show your spirit. Maybe you will become the white moonlight in the hearts of unmarried women."

Xuandu was really tempted:

"This is a good suggestion. War is easy to be contaminated with cause and effect. People's livelihood is mottled and complicated. Peach blossoms are more pure. I can try it."

Zhang Daoling didn't expect him to really go, and quickly reminded him:

"Aren't you afraid of a car accident that will affect your reputation?"

"If it fails, just say that the brothers Yin Hong and Yin Jiao are playing tricks. As a disciple, isn't it natural for the master to take the blame?"

His matter-of-fact tone made Lao Zhang and Dizang not know what to say.

Xuandu, who was eager to fight, couldn't wait for Changshengtian, so he had to go to the Sui and Tang world. It happened that there was also Changshengtian there, and there were Turks who believed in Changshengtian, so he could continue fishing.

In the real world, Li Yu looked at the electronic clock on the wall and found that the Mid-Autumn Festival was getting closer and closer. Yuwen Chengdu and Zhao Yun were about to leave here and go to the book world to fight.

The warehouse manager of the B&B became a sinecure again.

After dinner, Li Yu remembered that someone in the village was going to have a wedding tomorrow, and planned to go there with Zhou Ruotong.

For weddings here, people with good relationships usually send the gift money the night before, so that the host family will not be unable to come up with money in case of emergency the next day.

Zhou Ruotong said:

"No wonder several people in the village called Sister Xiuhe in the evening and asked her to come back to the village to eat the big pot dishes. It turns out that there is such a thing as giving gifts in advance for weddings."

Li Yu nodded:

"In the past, every family was poor, and the big pot dishes were considered to improve life. Inviting each other to eat can not only show respect to the host family, but also improve life. The gifts sent in advance can also be used directly by the host family... In case of a bride who increases the betrothal gift at the last minute, they will not be unable to pay."

Zhou Ruotong took Li Yu's hand and asked:

"Are you afraid that I will increase the betrothal gift at the last minute?"

"No, I am confident that there are hundreds of kilograms of gold in the safe and the pile of cultural relics that cannot be seen in the light."

The two strolled to the family where the wedding was held, and happened to meet Wu Song eating a bowl of big pot dishes at the door.

There was a wedding in the village, and as a village cadre, Erlang had to come and support.

"Brother Li, have you eaten yet? Do you want me to serve you a bowl?"

"No, we just ate, and we came here to digest the food."

The couple went to the new house to look at the wedding photos, and said hello to the host family. Then Li Yu took out the prepared gift money and stuffed it into the old man's pocket, and received a bag of wedding candy and melon seeds as a return gift.

The MC came over and asked:

"Boss Li, the host will speak tomorrow, how about you go on stage and say a few words?"

Li Yu quickly refused:

"I haven't gotten married yet, so I'm not suitable to be the host. It's better for you to find someone with high moral character and prestige. I will only come to eat tomorrow and won't have time to talk."

He had just gone to the place where the big banquet was prepared to take a look. It was very rich and more cost-effective than the restaurant.

The previous few wedding banquets in star-rated hotels were quite fancy, and many dishes were cold, with a refrigerator smell, which was completely incomparable to the big banquets in the countryside.

As they were talking, Hao Zhenzhen also came to give gifts, and ate half a bowl of big pot dishes with Wu Song.

Li Yu said to Zhou Ruotong:

"I will pick you up tomorrow morning, and we will have dinner together."

"Okay, I just saw that the braised chicken in the pot is very good. Everyone in Yinzhou really knows how to make roast chicken, unlike other places, where this step is simplified."

A whole chicken should be used for a big banquet, which looks grand and tastes good.

After a round, the couple strolled to the village supermarket and brought a few bags of potato chips to the queen. Zhou Ruotong also had a rare playful mood and bought a scratch card, and then scratched out a big prize.

Li Yu charged the money to the supermarket shopping card, and strolled back to the homestay with Zhou Ruotong carrying potato chips.

The two sat in the study and found a movie of "The Godfather" to watch with the projector. Zhou Ruotong also specially prepared some snacks for Mu Guiying. As a result, Mu Guiying did not show up until Vito Corleone in the movie was buried.

She had clearly gone back to bring Li Fengyang some dumpling soup during dinner. Did something happen in Muke Village?

After watching the famous scene of the church cleansing, Li Yu turned off the video and planned to go to the scenic spot to ask about the situation. If anything happened, we had to help.

Zhou Ruotong was free and was ready to go. As soon as they went downstairs, they ran into Mu Guiying who was running upstairs in a hurry:

"Why are you here at this time? What happened?"

Mu Guiying's face was full of excitement. She first drank the juice prepared by Zhou Ruotong, then wiped her mouth and said:

"It's born, the lawless little brat is finally born!"

Li Yu didn't quite understand:

"What little brat?"

Zhou Ruotong was quick to react:

"Guying, are you talking about Madam Yin giving birth?"

"Yes, I was just in the Wahuang Palace, eating popcorn and drinking iced Kuoluo, and witnessed the birth of the demon boy Nezha. The scene was full of gongs and drums. The Xianjiao was trying to make trouble secretly, but several of them were blown away by the Winged Fairy with one wing."

Sure enough, the Xianjiao wanted to try at every node.

Last time when Xuandu accepted Yin Hong and Yin Jiao as apprentices, Chi Jingzi and Guang Chengzi from the Chanjiao came. This time when Nezha was born, they wanted to come again.

In the original novel, Nezha and Li Jing had such a bad relationship, which was purely caused by Taiyi Zhenren.

He gave the magic weapon but did not teach morality. He kept saying that if there was anything, he would help him. However, Taiyi Zhenren did not show up in the previous few times when Nezha got into trouble, and watched the conflict between Nezha and Li Jing getting deeper and deeper.

And when he showed up, he killed Shiji without saying a word, which completely intensified the conflict.

Now let little Nezha grow up in a loving environment, and with the influence of Nezha in Journey to the West, there will no longer be a so-called demon child. At most, he is just a naughty little kid.

Li Yu was still worried about something happening in Mu Ke Village, but he didn't expect that this girl was watching someone giving birth:

"Did everyone give gifts?"

"Yes, even I gave him a set of the most difficult Lego blocks, which cost tens of thousands of yuan in total. It will take him almost a year to complete it."

Good fellow, you are too lazy to put it together, so you torture Nezha, right?

"The master cut a ribbon from the red hydrangea and gave it to Nezha. It is only a hundred or eighty times stronger than the Hun Tian Ling, not worth mentioning; Hou Tu Gan Ma gave him the Yin Yang Wheel, which is more advanced than the Fenghuo Wheel. The monk Duobao, who has a lot of scars on his head, gave him a longevity lock for protection, a small string of Buddhist beads, and a small gourd. I don't know what it is used for."

He is armed to the teeth right from the start. Aren't you afraid that he will continue to make trouble?

Li Yu felt that he had to remind him a few words later. If it didn't work, he would let Duobao discipline him. Anyway, he is his apprentice in Journey to the West, so he doesn't bother two masters for one thing.

The birth of Nezha indicates that the story of Fengshen is about to get on track.

When Jiang Ziya comes down with the Investiture of the Gods, we must find a way to keep him in Chaoge and directly instigate a rebellion.

Zhou Ruotong recalled the plot of Investiture of the Gods and asked:

"At this time, Su Daji should have been taken to the palace by Zishou. Now Su Daji has not shown up yet. Isn't she going to show up?"

Mu Guiying tore open a bag of potato chips and said:

"Master said that the King of Shang did not force Su Hu to rebel, nor did he need Chonghouhu to lead troops to attack, and there was no plot of Su Hu taking his daughter to Chaoge to beg for mercy, so the nine-tailed fox did not appear."

She wanted to say that if the family was short of a maid, she could bring her over, but thinking of the big sister, Sister Zhou, she wisely did not mention this.

You can't just take the pretty ones home when you see them. Even if Sister Zhou has no objection, your husband's waist can't bear it... Ha, this emperor is indeed a good emperor who cares about the queen!

Of course, according to the current rules, if the nine-tailed fox comes here, it may become a fat big fox, and no matter how powerful the charm is, it will lose its place.

Li Yu said:

"I just gave a gift in the village, and now I have to give a gift to the world in the book... Nezha doesn't seem to need milk powder or something like that, nor does he need a walker. Wife, what gift do you think we should give Nezha?"

Zhou Ruotong thought carefully about the toys that children are most likely to accept, and thought of a toy that both big men and small men can't stop:

"Excavator!"
