Chapter 74: Determination

Last time we talked about Li Yi blocking Yuwen Tian’s troops on the Penghe Ferry Bridge. The two sides had already started fighting, so how would Li Yi stop the attack of these six or seven thousand people? Let’s look on together.

With a stop gesture from Yuwen Tian, ​​the archers stopped shooting. He looked at Li Yi on the bridge and said calmly, "You are bluffing. You can't mobilize many people in such a short time."

Li Yi smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, I only have 200 people, and we are lying in ambush in this forest. You have more than 6,000 people. Do you want to give it a try? See if I can stop you?"

Yuwen Ye walked out of the queue and laughed, "Two hundred people want to stop us. Li Yi, you must be crazy. Father, don't waste time talking to him. Just charge forward!"

Yuwen Tian angrily shouted, "Shut up, you idiot! If you hadn't caused trouble in Shangjing City, the Mohist School wouldn't have been ruined, and we wouldn't have died early... Never mind, Ye'er, you can step down. Your father has his own way."

Yuwen Tian looked at Li Yi and said, "Does Li Changshi really intend to fight to the death? Why don't we both make concessions? Young people should not act too impulsively."

Li Yi sighed, "I always follow my heart, and I don't do anything impulsive. Besides, Master Ling wants to kill me, and the feud has already been made. If there is no result today, I'm afraid I'll have more troubles."

Yuwen Tian smiled faintly and said, "For a little girl, there shouldn't be such a big hatred. Besides, as far as I know, Li Changshi doesn't seem to have any special feelings for that girl."

"So, Lord Yuwen knows about your son's dirty deeds? Not only do you not discipline him, but you also want to cover up and indulge him. You really don't treat people as human beings."

Yuwen Tian laughed and said, "She is just a girl, with only some beauty. If she could marry into a wealthy family, she would be so happy. But, Chang Shi Li, we, the sons of a noble family, are not like you who like to find women in brothels!" This sentence hit Li Yi's sore spot. So far, both of Li Yi's women were from brothels. Bailing was from Liumoxuan. Although she was not a woman of worldly affairs, Liumoxuan was also registered as a brothel by the government!

Yuwen Tian's words were meant to provoke Li Yi, and Li Yi was indeed provoked. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, the following words came out almost through gritted teeth: "Indeed, I, Li Yi, do like women in the mortal world, because they have experienced hardships and know how to repay kindness. Unlike some people, who are from aristocratic families, receive salaries from the court, and are parasites of the country, but still sell out their masters for glory. They are really shameless."

After hearing what Li Yi said, Yuwen Ye started to curse, "Li Yi, it's obviously you who is lustful and fell for that bitch Xiao Ye, so you came to ruin my good deeds. After you were done with her, you didn't even give her a name, but went to a brothel to find an otaku to be your wife. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world if this gets out? No wonder, you have no background, no one to rely on, you can only write a few obscene songs to deceive those innocent prostitutes in brothels. Which real lady would fall for an actor who sings on the stage like you! Actors looking for prostitutes are all lowly people, so it's just right for them to be well matched! Hahaha!"

After Yuwen Ye finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter from the team behind him. This laughter was like a needle flying, irritating Li Yi's nerves. Li Yi gritted his teeth and said, "An actor looking for a prostitute? Great! Interesting! I can marry whoever I want, what does it have to do with you? What does it have to do with you who I like? It's okay if you insult me, but if you insult the person I love, then I can't be so good-tempered anymore. As the saying goes, a man's anger can splatter blood five steps away, so today I will let you know what kind of temper I, Li Yi, have!"

After saying this, Li Yi straightened his chest and raised his head, gathering his righteous spirit and speaking loudly to the sky: "I, Li Yi, Li Xiuyuan, make a vow today! Love what I love, do what I do, listen to my heart, improve myself day by day, and unite knowledge and action! This wish can be witnessed by heaven and earth, and can be seen by the sun and the moon. If I violate this wish in the future, I will be punished by heaven and earth!"

Thunder rumbled, and purple clouds appeared in the sky in the shape of fish scales. A stream of righteous energy condensed from Li Yi's body and rushed straight into the sky like a column of water. When the purple column rushed into the sky, purple lightning flowed between the fish-scale clouds and intertwined into an electric net. The purple lightning fell directly along the column of righteous energy above Li Yi's head. Li Yi raised his right hand, and the purple lightning gathered and poured directly into his palm. Then the purple fish-scale clouds in the sky turned red, like fire!

Li Yi waved his right hand, and the fiery clouds in the sky continued to shrink and gather, forming a red cloud line, followed by rain pouring down from the cloud line like a waterfall. The strange thing was that the rain only fell on the Peng River, but it seemed to boil the entire river. Bubbles continued to emerge from the water of the Peng River. When the cloud line disappeared, two huge whirlpools appeared on both sides of the bridge where Li Yi was. The water level began to drop rapidly, and then two huge dragon heads rose from the whirlpools!

Li Yi waved his hands and shouted, "Two dragons emerge from the water." With two dragon roars, two water dragons flew out of the whirlpool and pounced directly on Yuwen Tian and Yuwen Ye. Seeing the water dragons pounce on them, the two were terrified and fled on horseback. A guard appeared behind each of them, one holding a gun and the other holding a sword. The two swung their full strength to smash the water dragons. Li Yi knew that the two water dragons could not hit the two of them, but the target of this move was not Yuwen and his son. After the water dragon was shattered, the dragon's body turned into a flood peak, devouring Yuwen Tian's troops like a beast. This attack directly dispersed Yuwen Tian's troops, and everyone fled in all directions to avoid it...

The water gradually receded, and Li Yi exhaled a breath of foul air. Then his head sank and he fell off his horse. He did not fall to the ground. Nangong Xue flew forward to support him. Looking at the mess on the north bank, Nangong Xue smiled and said, "Why do you have to show off if you don't have that much ability?"

Li Yi forced a smile and said, "At least I have shown my face for once. I can't let people look down on me."

Wang Shuang also came over at this time. Nangong Xue handed Li Yi to Wang Shuang and said, "I'm going to check out what's going on over there. You take this idiot to rest first. He lost all his talent after being provoked by others' words. Although he scared Yuwen Tian away temporarily, they will come back soon after they regroup! It seems that you are going to lose this bet. Even if you can survive tonight, what are you going to do tomorrow? What's more, I'm afraid you can't survive tonight."

Li Yi panted and laughed, "I was impulsive at the moment, but it doesn't matter. If they dare to come tonight, I also have a way to repel them, but I guess I won't be able to do anything tomorrow."

Nangong Xue snorted coldly and flew to the north bank on her sword. Wang Shuang helped Li Yi sit down against a tree and sighed, "Did Lord Li just get promoted?"

Li Yi nodded, and Wang Shuang handed over the kettle. Li Yi didn't even have the strength to raise his hand, so Wang Shuang had to feed Li Yi water. Then he said, "Master Li is really a strange man. I have never seen, no, I have never heard of anyone who can attract strange phenomena in heaven and earth after being promoted to the fifth rank. Master Li, your Confucian and Taoist fifth rank state of mind must be extraordinary."

Li Yi smiled faintly, stopped talking, and closed his eyes to rest. The previous attack not only dissipated all his talent, but controlling this large amount of talent was also extremely exhausting for his body. Now he was exhausted and powerless, as if his mental strength was exhausted.

The five levels of Confucianism and Taoism are a barrier to entry. Although there are many people in the Confucian and Taoist system, it can be said that all scholars belong to the Confucian and Taoist system, but it is difficult to be promoted to each level. It takes intelligence and enlightenment to enter the level. Most scholars need to spend ten years to understand this threshold. The eighth level is self-cultivation, which is to correct one's own morality. People with bad morality cannot pass this threshold. The seventh level is to cultivate one's spirit and accumulate talent and righteousness through one's own talent or morality to enter the level. Many people have good morals, but they can't write good poems or articles, and they can't accumulate talent and righteousness. It takes a long time to reach this level. The sixth level is not only excellent in character and learning, but also has both moral and talent, and one must have one's own understanding of Confucianism to have a chance to enter.

The fifth level of the mind is the watershed of the Confucian and Taoist systems, because when you reach the state of mind, you have the ability to participate in battles. What is mind-setting? In essence, it means being able to clarify your own mind and know what you should do for yourself in your life. The process of mind-setting is that your original mind communicates with heaven and earth and is recognized by heaven and earth before you can enter the rank. Li Yi's mind: love what I love, do what I do, listen to my heart, improve myself day by day, and integrate knowledge and action. It is divided into two parts, one is love, and the other is action. Both love and action must follow the original heart.

From today on, Li Yi can no longer do anything against his will, otherwise he will be condemned by the heaven and earth. As for the fourth-grade great scholar realm, one must establish a theory or write a book, which must be recognized by most readers and gather enough literary energy to break through. This literary energy can only be accumulated in the process of reading books. This is not easy, because not only must the reader understand the meaning of the book, but also recognize the meaning of the book, otherwise there will be no literary energy, and only those with sufficient literary energy can enter the realm of great scholars.

Wang Shuang guarded Li Yi for about an hour. Nangong Xue returned with her sword. She landed in front of the two and said calmly, "As I said, Yuwen Tian is reorganizing his troops. He will probably be back in another hour. How is Li Yi?"

Li Yi slowly opened his eyes and smiled: "It's okay, I won't die, help me up, I can still fight!"

Nangong Xue suddenly found that Li Yi's right hand was charred and his sleeve was torn. She thought it was because of the purple thunder that he had just received. She squatted down, lifted Li Yi's right hand, checked it again and again, and found that there was no damage. She waved her right hand, and a stream of water flew out from Penghe River and poured on Li Yi's right hand. She helped Li Yi wash away the black stains and checked it again. There was indeed nothing unusual. She asked, "What kind of thunder was that just now? Why does it feel similar to my Tianzong thunder method?"

Li Yi said: "That is the Purple Sky Divine Thunder."

Wang Shuang was shocked and said, "Purple Sky Divine Thunder? Is it the thunder of heavenly tribulation? Sir Li, can your state of mind bring about heavenly tribulation?"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "No, this thunder is planting a restriction in my heart. I have just made up my mind to the heavens. If I do things against my original intention in the future, I will be killed by this thunder."

Nangong Xue smiled faintly after hearing this and said, "Humph, it seems that Confucianism is not that easy to follow. You can't do anything that would go against your conscience. It seems that your future life will be difficult!"

Li Yi smiled and said, "Don't do anything that would make you feel guilty. What's wrong with that?"

Nangong Xue turned her eyes and asked, "Then let me ask you, do you like me?" Wang Shuang's eyes almost popped out when he heard Nangong Xue's words! This is the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, who will marry into the palace as a concubine in the future, and she actually asked such a question here!

Li Yi was also dumbfounded by the question, thinking: Big sister, can you stop making trouble? How can you bring up such a topic when we are facing a powerful enemy! This is too childish! The key is that I have just made up my mind and the mark of the Purple Sky Divine Thunder has just been placed. You still asked this question in front of others. Are you afraid that I will not die? If I say I like you, this word will spread, and Li Yi will be obsessed with the emperor's woman, and he will die! If I say I don't like you, the Purple Sky Divine Thunder will kill you directly, and you will die! Nangong Xue, what are you thinking about!

Seeing that Li Yi didn't speak, Nangong Xue asked again: "Tell me, do you like me? What does it mean to keep silent? Can you avoid the surveillance of the Heavenly Dao by not speaking? You really underestimate the Heavenly Dao!"

Li Yi felt a slight electric shock on his right palm and immediately said, "Of course I like you! Everyone loves beauty. Miss Nangong is the most beautiful woman in Wei. Who wouldn't like her? Wang Shuang, don't you like Miss Nangong?"

Wang Shuang knelt on the spot and said, "I dare not. I am just a low-ranking centurion. I dare not have any improper thoughts about Miss Nangong! Lord Li, please do not slander me!"

Li Yi cursed in his heart! Damn! You shameless bastard! I just wanted to pass the buck! Or to drag you down with me so that you wouldn't dare to tell anyone about this, but you not only passed the buck but also tricked me! Are you a warrior? I think your mind works faster than anyone else! Li Yi actually misunderstood. Wang Shuang was just telling the truth without any other intentions.

Nangong Xue glanced at Wang Shuang, then smiled and looked at Li Yi and asked, "So, you are really a lecher? You only like the appearance, not the heart."
