These few days, Miss Fan had already been buried. The coffin was in the mourning shed in the backyard. Xue Dingshan went to the backyard to take a look. He saw that the soul-guiding flag was tall and made a rustling sound when it was blown by the wind. Under the mourning shed, there was a large flower-headed coffin. On the altar in front of the coffin, there was yellow money paper, fruit offerings, and a pair of white wax. On the head of the coffin, there was a soul-guiding lamp. Countless womenfolk knelt in front of the spirit. At a glance, it was all white. The womenfolk cried until their voices were hoarse. Seeing the coffin, Xue Dingshan felt sad. He knelt down and cried. Xue Dingshan cried for a while and cried for a while until the red wheel fell to the west and the jade rabbit rose to the east. "General Xue, are you going back to White Tiger Pass or are you staying here for the night?" Fan Lihua's sister-in-law asked him.”"I'll be guarding the spirit here." "Seeing that you're sincere, let's do this. If you want to guard the spirit, we won't care. We'll leave it to you.”"Leave it to me." The master and servants all left.
Xue Dingshan was the only one left in the large mourning hall. He found a stool and sat beside the spirit. He patted the coffin and cried again. The stars moved, and it was late at night. Gusts of cold wind blew, and the ashes of the paper flew all over the courtyard. The soul-guiding banner rattled in the wind, and the white wax in front of the coffin was blown by the wind. The small oil lamp on the coffin was blown out by the wind. Xue Dingshan felt his scalp go numb, and his hair stood on end. He looked into the courtyard, but there was no one there. It gave off a creepy feeling. He lit up the Soul Guiding Lamp and walked around the coffin a few times. Tears fell from his eyes and he said in a low voice,"Miss Fan, Miss Li Hua, there's no one else now. Do you know that I, Xue Dingshan, am keeping a vigil for you? I'm not forgiving myself. I feel that my heart is sincere enough now. If you were still alive and could understand my difficulties, we would be reunited and rush to the Tang camp hand in hand. You would be the marshal and I would be the general. You command thousands of troops, take the White Tiger Pass, break the White Tiger Array, kill Yang Fan, and capture the Head Ancestor. The army will go straight to the capital of Xiliang. When the time comes, we will return to the court. We will grow old together. I, Xue Dingshan, will not make you angry. You can say whatever you want, but it's too late. My son is no longer alive. I can't hear you no matter what I say. Even if I cry to death and kowtow to death, you won't be able to see it. How can it not be heartbreaking!”With that, he leaned his head against the altar and cried again. Recently, he had been in a depressed mood and had worked hard several times. He did not eat enough, did not eat enough, did not sleep enough. In addition, he had been too stimulated and was too sad. He had fainted from crying.
After an unknown amount of time, Xue Dingshan felt the wind again, and his entire body felt cold. He stood up in a daze, stretched, and took a few steps. Suddenly, he heard the sound of metal chains shaking behind him. He turned around and was shocked to see a woman standing at the Moon Door. Her hair was disheveled, and she was dressed in plain clothes. Her sleeves covered her hands, and her skirt covered her feet. She was glaring at him. Xue Dingshan took a closer look. This woman was none other than Fan Lihua. Fan Lihua choked and said,"Heartless person, you still have the face to offer a sacrifice in front of my spirit? I died unjustly! Because of you, our father and daughter turned against each other. Because of you, my two brothers turned against me. I gave my body to you, but I'm not a lowly person. Your master, Wang Chan, and my master, the Saint Mother, were the matchmakers. Who knew that you, Xue Dingshan, would punch me on the night of our wedding night! Later, you were injured and your life was on the verge of death. The old Duke came to beg me. I thought of the relationship between husband and wife and let go of the past hatred. I went to treat your injury and pulled you back from the death god. You didn't say anything and grabbed the fist and hit again. Are you human? Later on, when the former enemy was in a tight spot, the old Duke moved me. I still thought about the relationship between husband and wife and put the overall situation first. I abandoned the previous resentment and brought the former enemy back. Who knew that I would take in a child, Xue Yinglong, halfway through? What did that child do wrong? On the night of the wedding night, you wanted to be evil again. You beat up other people's children and said mean words to hurt people. Are you wicked? How can you call me Fan Lihua? If I were to say that I would cut ties with you and never see you again in this life, who asked you to come and find me? Who asked you to come to my house and wail? You forced me to a dead end. I didn't deserve to die, but if I die, I won't be done with you. I'll strangle you to death!”Xue Dingshan felt his neck being strangled and suffocated. He closed his eyes and shouted,"Young Lady, Wifey, Wifey!"
Xue Dingshan rolled over and got up from the ground. It turned out that he had a nightmare. He was so scared that he was covered in sweat. He looked around. The courtyard was still quiet. A pair of white wax was still burning. The soul-guiding lamp on the coffin was still lit. He touched his neck and felt nothing. He stretched his waist and legs, took the pot over and drank a few mouthfuls of water. Thinking about the dream just now, it was as if it was real. It was as if Fan Lihua's voice was still beside his ear. Xue Dingshan thought again,"I'd feel better if you really strangled me. I'd be happy to see a ghost. Unfortunately, there's no such thing. Dreams are just thoughts." Aiya, my wife! He started crying again.
At this moment, he heard the coffin lid crack, giving Xue Dingshan a fright. It was late at night, and there was no one around. Who wouldn't be afraid of this sound? Following that was another crack. The one-foot-thick coffin lid creaked and came horizontally. The small lamp on the coffin head also went out. Xue Dingshan thought to himself, Is it really haunted? He was also stunned. He opened his mouth and stared at the coffin lid. He saw Fan Lihua sitting up in the coffin. Her shoulders were exposed. She used her hand to support the coffin and looked at Xue Dingshan under the candlelight."Who's down there?" Xue Dingshan thought to himself, I was just saying that I'm not afraid of ghosts. What am I afraid of now? He took two steps forward." Miss Fan, I'm Xue Dingshan. You, what's wrong with you?"”"Sigh! General Xue, I was originally dead, but I was moved by your sincerity. I have returned to the world. Hurry up and help me as my wife!”When Xue Dingshan heard this, he threw caution to the wind and pounced on Fan Lihua.""Wifey, you've returned to the sun! This is really sincere." Xue Dingshan grabbed Miss Fan's hand and slowly helped her out of the coffin. He held the oil lamp in his hand and helped Miss to the ground. He moved the chair over for Fan Lihua to sit down. Xue Dingshan calculated that Miss was really alive. Just now, when I held her hand, I felt that my hand was hot, but when a person was about to die, it was cold.
Actually, Fan Lihua was not dead at all. Ever since Xue Dingshan left, Fan Lihua had decided to test him again, so she took the medicine of the Holy Mother of Li Mountain and pretended to be dead. After Xue Dingshan left, she used the antidote. This time, Xue Dingshan came again. She lay in the coffin and listened to what Xue Dingshan said. Xue Dingshan was crying outside, and she was crying inside. After that, she saw that it was about time. She couldn't pull the bow too full, so she came out of the coffin.
Xue Dingshan had just helped Fan Lihua sit down when Duke Cheng of Lu came in from the courtyard. He patted his big belly and laughed,"Ding Shan, are you convinced this time?" Xue Dingshan blushed and quickly came over to greet Old Cheng.""Grandpa, when did you come?”"I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me. I've been listening for a long time. This time, you have to learn your lesson and think about how to be a person in the future. You have to grow old with Li Hua and love each other. Do you remember?" "I'll remember. You've put in a lot of effort for us. You're my biological grandfather.”"Unfortunately, I'm not that lucky. However, with this godgrandson and godgranddaughter-in-law, I'm satisfied.”Fan Lihua also smiled and ordered people to carry the coffin away. The mourning shed was removed and Xue Dingshan took off his mourning clothes. Then, Xue Dingshan met with the old madam of the He family and his two sisters-in-law.
The next day, Fan Lihua said to Xue Dingshan,"It's one thing for me to be wronged. I always feel sorry for my child, Xue Yinglong."”Xue Dingshan blushed." Yes, Madam. I'm really sorry to that child." But I don't know where he is. If there's a clear location, I'll kowtow to his feet step by step, just like how I treated you. After he's appeased, I'll invite him back.”
Just then, his family came in to report,""There's a little general outside, riding a tall horse. There's also a monk leading a horse with a heavy bag on the horse, and he keeps asking to see you.”Fan Lihua did not know who it was, so she brought Xue Dingshan and the servants to the manor door to take a look. This one look made Fan Lihua extremely happy. This little general was Xue Yinglong. He had his arrow sleeves tied up and was carrying a sword. His big eyes were bright and his long eyelashes were fluttering. He was still so energetic and beautiful. The old Taoist priest was of medium build and slightly plump. He had a sun-and-moon bun on his head and a green hair rope on his head. He wore a fat Taoist robe with round sleeves and a sword on his back. He held a horsetail whisk in his hand. His face was pale gold, and he had two pale eyebrows and a pair of wide eyes. His white beard covered his chest. Despite his age, his eyes were bright and his pupils were shining. When Xue Dingshan saw that it was his old teacher, Old Ancestor King Cicada, it was really beyond his expectations. The former teacher had severed his master-disciple relationship with him and taken back the Ten Treasures. This matter had greatly stimulated Xue Dingshan. He thought,"Maybe my fate with my master is over, and we won't be able to see each other anymore." Thinking back to when he was twelve years old when he arrived at Yunmeng Mountain, how did his teacher raise him to become an adult? How could he repay the hard work he had put in these past few years! Xue Dingshan felt guilty for angering his teacher to such an extent. He didn't expect that he and Miss Fan would be reunited. His teacher and Yinglong were also here. Xue Dingshan lifted his clothes and knelt on the ground."Master, the unfilial disciple Xue Dingshan kowtows to Master.”"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate. Disciple, please rise." Fan Lihua said,"This is not a place to talk. Please come in quickly."”Everyone went inside happily. Cheng Yaojin looked at him and said," You can't attract the golden phoenix without the parasol tree. Where did you come from?" Yinglong, where did you go? I miss the old master so much. Come over quickly, child.”Xue Yinglong ran over and hugged Cheng Yaojin intimately. When he asked about the origins of Forefather King Cicada and Yinglong, the forefather gave a simple explanation.
After he took back Xue Dingshan's Ten Treasures, he rushed to Xiangshan's Great White Cloud Temple to find Sanyuan Li Jing. After Li Jing brought Xue Yinglong back to the Great White Cloud Temple in a fit of anger, he remembered what Xue Dingshan had done and hated him so much that his teeth itched. Li Jing was quite angry. The reason why Forefather King Cicada went to White Cloud Temple was to explain this to him. Both of them were martial arts experts and were experts beyond the world. They knew each other long ago. King Cicada introduced the past and also told him about the matter of taking back the Ten Treasures."Now that I've severed ties with Xue Dingshan, the relationship between master and disciple is gone, and I've taken back the Ten Treasures, it's to vent my anger for you. But I was just scaring him. If it was from the bottom of my heart, I would have said that I had completely severed my master-disciple relationship with Xue Dingshan. A child like this had to be tempered. She had to teach him a lesson.”After Old Ancestor King Cicada's persuasion, Li Jing's anger subsided. The two elders thought about it and decided to suppress his temper. They had stayed in the White Cloud Temple for many days. "Are you still willing to charge at the enemy?" Dao Master Li asked Xue Yinglong.”Xue Yinglong was willing! When his master forced him to come back, he cried and was unhappy. He felt that life in the military camp was too interesting. Therefore, Xue Yinglong said every day that he wanted to return to his former enemy. Li Jing saw that he still had to go to Mount Emei in Sichuan to do a tour, so he entrusted Xue Yinglong to Old Ancestor King Cicada and begged him to meet Miss Fan and the Tang camp generals to explain on his behalf and settle the child down. Forefather King Cicada agreed readily before bringing the Ten Treasures and Xue Yinglong to Hanjiang Pass. They had already been here for two days. They found a quiet place to stay and knew everything that had happened at Hanjiang Pass like the back of their hands. They also asked about Xue Dingshan's suffering. The old Daoist thought that this was how he should deal with him. Miss Fan was doing the right thing, so they did not show up. Last night, the husband and wife had reunited and made up. This morning, the immortal knew about it. He saw that it was about time, so he sent Xue Yinglong over.
Everyone was surprised and happy after listening to the introduction. Xue Dingshan's face was red. He knew that these things were caused by him. He reached out and pulled Xue Yinglong to his side."Child, do you still hate me? I'm sorry." "Father, don't say that. I only have one request.”"Good child, if you're willing, I'd be more than happy to do so.”Cheng Yaojin said,"Son, kowtow again and call him father."”Xue Yinglong was quite naive. He quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Xue Dingshan. Then, he turned around and kowtowed three times to Fan Lihua. Everyone in the room burst into laughter. Xue Dingshan knew that this young man was too capable. He might not be able to defeat him. Now that the Tang camp was short of soldiers, it would be very useful to have another tiger general. Patriarch King Cicada returned the ten treasures to his disciple and warned him again and again. Only then did the old immortal leave. No one dared to force him.
The next day, Fan Lihua gave the order to set off. The thirty thousand armored soldiers were waiting in the military field. Miss Fan personally inspected the army, bid farewell to her mother, sister-in-law, and Chen Zhong. Then, she brought 120 female soldiers to the military field. Three cannon booms shook the heavens and earth as the army marched towards the enemy.
When the army arrived at the Tang camp, the Crown Prince Li Zhi led his generals to welcome them outside the Yuan Gate. At this moment, the tent was filled with the sound of gongs and drums, it was even more lively than the New Year. The soldiers of Assai were like stars surrounding the moon as they brought Miss Fan into the Central Army Treasure Tent. Cheng bite gold with XueDingShan, XueYingLong met the emperor LiShiMin, the past story again, LiShiMin listened to exultation, pass mouth decree whole camp congratulations. Before the banquet, Li Shimin personally proposed that Fan Lihua be granted the title of Grand Marshal of the World's Capital, and the seal ceremony would be held tomorrow.
On the second day, Fan Lihua went to the Golden Platform to pay her respects. Crown Prince Li Zhi, on behalf of the Emperor, hung the Golden Tiger Seal on Fan Lihua's chest and personally gave her the flag and arrow. This was called the authorization ceremony. From now on, Fan Lihua held the power of life and death, and a single command could mobilize all the troops in the world. After Fan Lihua received the seal, she immediately issued an order," The former enemy generals would get up at the fourth watch tomorrow and eat breakfast at the fifth watch. Then they would go to the main tent to listen and announce the seventeen prohibitions and fifty-four beheading. They hoped that all the soldiers in the camp would carry them out. People realized that Fan Lihua was not angry but she was imposing. When she announced the rules, people were in awe.
Before dawn the next day, all the generals had finished breakfast and gathered outside the central army's treasure tent to listen. When the sky was slightly brighter, they could hear the thunderous drums inside. The drums sounded three times, and the Grand Marshal was promoted to the throne. The soldiers were divided into two groups, each wearing bright armor and entering the tent to pay their respects to the Marshal. Fan Lihua shook her sleeves.”Whoosh! Standing on both sides.
Since Cheng Yaojin invited her for the third time, Fan Lihua had seriously studied the situation of the White Tiger Array after she had agreed to go up against the enemy. She had also sent spies to investigate the inside of the array. Through Old Cheng's mouth, she had indirectly learned about it from the Tang generals who had once attacked the array. It could be said that Marshal Fan now knew the array like the back of his hand. She was confident in breaking the array. She was promoted to the position of marshal. Fan Lihua ordered the Military and Political Division to count the names according to the roster. Fan Lihua nodded in satisfaction. She looked down and announced loudly,"Generals, the White Tiger Pass is right in front of us. The enemy general Yang Fan has set up a White Tiger Formation, blocking our army here. It seems that we must seize White Tiger Pass. Now, I have ordered you to break the formation. No matter who you send, I hope you will serve the country bravely. Those who have merit will be rewarded, and those who are guilty will be punished!" "Please instruct me, marshal!"
Fan Lihua reached out and took out the first token arrow."Xue Dingshan, listen up!" "Wei Jiang is here!" Xue Dingshan parted his tail and lifted his battle skirt. He came to the front of the commander's table and bowed."Greetings, Marshal!" "Xue Dingshan, I'll give you a token arrow with five thousand soldiers to attack the White Tiger Formation's West Gate. When you reach the West Array Gate, you have to find a way to charge into the formation, all the way to the center, no mistakes!”"Understood!" Xue Dingshan received the order and took two steps back to his shift. Fan Lihua picked up the second token.""Luo Zhang, Qin Ying, listen up!" "Yes!" "I'll give you two a command arrow. Luo Zhang will be the leader and Qin Ying will be the deputy. Take five thousand men to attack the south array gate and gather at the center.”"As ordered!" The two of them retreated. Fan Lihua picked up the third token arrow and looked down."Dou Yihu, Qin Han, listen up!" "Yes!" I will give you two a command arrow. Take five thousand men to attack the North Array Gate and kill all the way to the central Wuji Earth.”The two of them took the order to return to work. "Dou Xiantong, Chen Jinding, and Xue Jinlian, listen up!”"Greetings, Marshal!" the three female generals answered.”"I'll give you a token arrow to attack the Eastern Array Gate with me.”"Yes, as ordered." The three women were ordered to return to their posts. Fan Lihua took out another order." Ma Sanbao, Liu Hongji, Yin Kaishan, Duan Zhixian, listen up!”"Yes!" The four old generals came up and bowed,""Greetings, marshal!" "Old generals, the four of you will lead ten thousand soldiers. When you hear that the formation is going to fight, attack White Tiger Pass immediately. I give you a day to seize this pass without any mistakes.”"Understood!" The four old generals retreated.
Fan Lihua's division of troops was orderly, and everyone was convinced. Xue Yinglong saw that everyone else had received the order arrow and had something to do. He was the only one who had nothing to do. He started to sweat a little. After the generals were done, Xue Yinglong couldn't help but walk to the marshal's table."Mother, what should I do?" This sentence amused everyone. Fan Lihua's face sank." Ling, Ying Long, what is this place? What nonsense is this? Come on, pull him down and slap him twenty times!"”Xue Yinglong was so scared that his head buzzed. This sentence had caused him to be slapped twenty times. He was unlucky. Cheng Yaojin looked at him and said,"General, please wait. It's not strange if you don't know." He was a child, how could he understand the rules of the barracks? He just had to tell him to pay more attention in the future. Yinglong, the marshal told you to come over. If the marshal doesn't tell you, you're not allowed to come over. Do you understand? This was a military order. Anyone who disobeyed it would be punished.”"Yes, I am. However, I have something to tell my mother.”"Then tell me. Li Hua, ask him what he wants." Li Hua thought to herself, Old High Duke, what are you doing? There's no other way. I can't refute Cheng Yaojin's face. At that time, her face sank and she asked Xue Yinglong,"Son, what's the matter?" "Mother, you sent this and that to attack the east, west, south, and north formation gates. You want to kill all the way to the central Wuji soil. I eat the country's food. How can such a big man stay? Please arrange an errand for me as well." "Son, you don't have to be anxious. It hasn't been assigned to you yet. The role that is going to be given to you is really a heavy burden.”
