Chapter 224: The Comfort of Fighting Secrets
Shui Ling'er asked Dou Dou who was the real heir to the god throne, but he mentioned to him the past of the Mangying Beacon Camp.
Shui Ling'er's previous life was a brave and warlike Chiyou, but his previous life has disappeared, and in this life, he has no concept of the word "military".
However, Doudou suddenly became so strange that he was so startled that he jumped up from the ground and asked strangely, "What are you talking about?"
He thought about it again, his doubts deepened, and without waiting for Doudou to answer, he asked sharply: "You...... Who the hell is it?"
"I ......" Doudou was questioned by him, only to realize that he had leaked the secret due to his emotional out-of-control, but it was too late.
He panicked, stood up and wanted to run, but was caught by Shui Ling'er with his five fingers, and shouted: "Tell me quickly, what does the Mangying Beacon Fire Camp have to do with you? Why can you, a bamboo tree spirit who has lived for a hundred years, know the events of a thousand years ago in such detail?"
Doudou was caught by him, so he had to give up and escape, and his tense body also collapsed, and he sat back on the ground softly.
He stared into the distance and replied in a low voice: "Why do you know? That's because after the Yellow Emperor personally wrote the decree to poison 100,000 soldiers and seal them into figurines, he had to assign an internal servant to go to the front line to pass it on. And I am the chamberlain who is referred to by the thousand husbands. In my previous life, I was a shameless coward, I don't deserve to be friends with someone like you, I don't deserve it!"
As he spoke, his whispers had turned to a wail, his head buried in his arms, and his shoulders shook with tears.
Shui Ling'er listened to him tell the truth, shook his body twice, and stepped back.
He was silent for a long time, and asked in a deep voice, "What you said happened before you transformed into a bamboo leaf elf, right?"
Doudou stopped crying and nodded, "Not bad." In my previous life, I was an attendant in the palace of the Yellow Emperor, called Wei Xing. Before me, three chamberlains were sent to preach this secret message. But when they learned of the contents of the secret decree, they all committed suicide in disobedience, and only I, because I was afraid of death, finally went to the Cisse with the silk cloth in my hand......"
Shui Ling'er was a little confused when she heard this, and asked, "But since you are not dead, how did you transform into a bamboo leaf elf?"
Dou Dou raised his head and said gloomily: "That's because, at the end of that secret decree, a line of small characters was written, saying that except for the masked man who forged the terracotta figurines, all the living people who were in the Mangying Beacon Camp camp at that time had to be buried in various ways, and none of them could be left." ”
"Huh, so cruel!" Shui Ling'er gasped and looked at his gaze with pity.
Dou Dou continued: "When I saw the last sentence, I regretted it at the time, I knew that I was going to die horizontally and vertically, so it was better to be like the previous ones, and I could make a decision on my own, and I could leave a chivalrous name for future generations." But when I knew I was going to die, I wasn't so scared, I just thought, maybe I can think of a way to save some people?
Therefore, when I pronounced the decree, I did not pronounce this last sentence, but began to act secretly after the decree, arranging for those other than the soldiers, such as men and miscellaneous servants, to escape from the back mountains. However, because there were too many people who fled and the movement was too large, they were finally detected by those masked people, and many people were killed because they did not succeed in escaping. It was so chaotic that I really didn't know how many people were sent out, except that the carnage continued that night.
"When I saw the executioner rushing at me, I fled desperately into a bamboo forest. At that time, the pursuers had arrived, and my last memory was to see a bloody butcher's knife, raised in front of my eyes, and then slashed down, and I never knew anything again. Later, I don't know how many years passed, and suddenly one day, I regained consciousness and regained my memory. I looked at myself again and realized that I didn't have a human body, just a green, moving bamboo leaf. That's when I realized that I was transformed into a bamboo leaf spirit by a bamboo tree spirit!"
When Shui Ling'er heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.
Seeing that he could laugh, Dou Dou was a little confused, and said strangely: "Ling'er, what are you laughing at?"
Shui Ling'er said: "I'm laughing, if when you were still Wei Xing, because you passed that secret decree, you became a person with a great crime, you would never have the opportunity to be accepted by the bamboo tree spirit and become a bamboo leaf elf." Even if you committed suicide at that time, like the previous three chamberlains, in order to avoid becoming an accomplice of the Yellow Emperor, you killed those Beacon Camp soldiers with him, you were only saving yourself. After you, there will always be someone who will preach the will, and no one can guarantee it, and that person will think of withholding part of the will to save people, just like you. Although I don't know the exact number of people you saved, I believe that your chivalrous deeds have inspired the sun and the moon, and many people must have survived because of you. So you should not blame yourself, but be proud of yourself!" )
