Chapter 305: The stars are immortal, the sword energy is not dissipated (1/2)
Li Shiyin is nineteen years old this year, and Li Shiwen is four years older than her, and is already twenty-three years old this year.
Northern Chu is a feudal country. Although there are immortals and gods, Li Shiwen is a mortal, so at his age, he should have been married long ago. In fact, this is also true. If nothing unexpected happened, Li Shiwen would have been married three years ago.
But...
Three years ago, the Devouring Demon Willow broke out. Li Shiwen led the Tiance Army to guard the Hengduan Mountains and intercept the monsters in the Hengduan Mountains, but the whole army was eventually wiped out. And the southwestern border where he guarded also killed and injured hundreds of thousands of people, and the economic losses of property were incalculable.
He should thank the world with his death.
But in the end, under many interest games, he did not die, but his heart died.
A twenty-year-old young general, who was heroic and heroic at the time, was expected to be a marquis and a prime minister, but the sudden defeat made him a sinner in Northern Chu and was despised by the world. Only Li Shiwen knew the taste.
For such a Li Shiwen, he felt that even living was a torment, let alone getting married and starting a family?
But now he is getting married.
It is not because he is too old and must get married, but because he is going to fight, and he wants to leave a descendant for the Li family before going to the battlefield.
On the sixth day of November, Li Shiwen got drunk in the heavy snow, knelt in the snow, and kowtowed 18 times in a row to the southwest. He knelt in the snow until his head was broken and bleeding.
How similar is the snow tonight to the catkins three years ago?
He, Li Shiwen, did not die, and he wanted to marry and have children. On the southwest border, 73,814 soldiers were buried forever in the "heavy snow". They were as young as him, but they had no chance to get married and have children.
He was overestimating his own abilities, he was arrogant, he wanted to take them to die, he was sorry for them, and he could never forgive himself.
He was the one who deserved to die the most, but he did not die. Then he must live with 73,814 souls, and continue to defend his country with their will.
On the seventh day of the eleventh month, with the help of his maids, Li Shiwen cut his hair, shaved his beard, changed his clothes, and shed his sloppy image for the past three years, and slightly restored the color of a young general.
He wore a festive wedding gown and took his bride back in the early morning of the eighth day of the eleventh month.
In the past three years, the Danyang Li family has experienced ups and downs. First, the backbone of Northern Chu, General Li Konghe, passed away, and the Li family suffered a heavy blow; then the shame of Northern Chu, General Li Shiwen, lost, and most of the Li family's power collapsed. Seeing that the Li family was about to fall apart, suddenly the peerless sword fairy Li Shiyin turned out, and he fought against the sword god of Northern Chu with one sword, and won back decades of luck for the Li family.
So until now, the Danyang Li family is still the strongest family in the court of Northern Chu.
But it is such a family, and the only heir of this family got married, but the wedding was extremely simple.
All etiquette is simple, and all guests are relatives.
The wedding of a royal family is almost the same as that of ordinary people.
As for the guests, the civil officials basically did not receive any invitations, and the military officials only invited some confidants and some veterans.
A wedding banquet with hundreds of people seemed a bit empty in the huge Li Mansion.
And the girl Li Shiwen married was not from a big family, but a small family, with the surname Yuchi, which could barely be called a scholarly family. The girl's name was Yuchi Zhen.
But Li Shiwen was wearing a big red robe and riding a tall horse. He was burly and handsome. Even if he was less energetic, he still looked the same.
He led the wedding procession to the front door of the Li family, and led the bride Yuchi Zhen into the Li family gate with a red ribbon amid the sound of firecrackers.
The ceremonial officer sang, and Li Shiwen and Yuchi Zhen first worshiped heaven and earth, then their parents, and finally the couple worshiped each other, and the ceremony was finally completed.
From this moment on, they were husband and wife, recognized by both parents, protected by secular laws, and witnessed by the laws of heaven and earth.
Li Shiwen straightened his bent back. He looked at the woman at the other end of the red ribbon, the woman covered with a red veil, the woman he didn't know at all, the woman he hadn't seen yet, but at this moment, it was as if there was a connection between heaven and earth, and their lives were connected together.
It was as if the red ribbon in his hand was the connecting line of their fate.
This is his wife. He thought, and then his heart palpitated.
And when he looked at her, he found that she was also looking at him through the veil. He seemed to be able to see through the red veil, a pair of eyes that were like autumn water and deep affection.
This made him feel itchy. He thought, this must be a very beautiful woman.
"Don't look at it, there will be plenty of time to look at it later. Some people's eyes are about to fall out!"
At this time, an inappropriate joke came from the side, affecting the wonderful atmosphere between them. He knew it was his unreliable sister as soon as he heard it.
He turned his head and saw his peerless sword fairy sister smiling and walking out of the queue next to him.
The girl's outfit today was simple and plain, obviously wanting to be low-key so as not to steal their limelight. But...
Since she started practicing, the girl has become more beautiful. Even the simplest clothes can't cover up her peerless beauty.
As a brother, he has always disliked her since he was a child, but he has to admit that his sister is like a fairy.
Li Shiyin walked to the hall and asked the newlyweds to face her.
She looked carefully at the bride in the red veil. Unlike Li Shiwen, she could see the bride. The bride was very beautiful, with a kind of gentle beauty of being well-educated and well-mannered, a beauty that she had not learned for twenty years.
"Sister-in-law is so beautiful." She praised.
She looked at Li Shiwen again. Li Shiwen was half a head taller than her. She half raised her head and sighed:
"Alas, time is not forgiving! It's only been a blink of an eye, and you are getting married. I am not mentally prepared at all. I remember that when you were eleven or twelve years old, you dragged me to the Jiaofangsi to listen to the beautiful sister singing..."
Li Shiwen's face darkened. He glanced at Li Shiyin and said, "You don't have to speak if you can't speak."
"Okay, it's all good, it's good to get married." Li Shiyin finally gave Li Shiwen face. She didn't recount his visits to brothels and his father's beatings for visiting brothels, nor did she talk about Li Shiwen's urination and mud when he was younger.
The atmosphere became a little more lively. Li Shiyin rummaged through the earthy bag on her waist and took out a light green jade-like little finger-sized bead and handed it to the bride, saying:
"This is the Dingyan Bead. According to Tushan Youyou, it can keep you young forever. She gave it to me and asked me to give it to you, saying that you should be beautiful even after getting married. Oh, by the way, Tushan Youyou is a fox spirit, the kind of fox spirit in the storybook. She has five tails and is very beautiful."
For mortals, a bead that can keep you young forever is a fairy item. It is so precious that Yuchi really dare not take it. She looked at Li Shiwen through the veil and silently asked Li Shiwen's opinion.
Li Shiwen felt Yuchi Zhen's gaze, her heart pounding, and nodded: "Take it. It's not for us, but for Shiyin."
There is a woman who is centered on herself. This kind of attention is different from the attention of the soldiers when she was a general, which made Li Shiwen feel nervous.
After hearing what Li Shiwen said, Yuchi Zhen still hesitated for a moment, and then took the bead.
Li Shiyin had a spiritual eye, and she could see Li Shiwen's nervousness and heartbeat clearly. She held back her smile and secretly raised her eyebrows at Li Shiwen.
Then, without waiting for Li Shiwen to react, she took out a willow branch from her Qiankun bag and handed it to Yuchi Zhen, introducing it:
"This is a branch of the Devouring... Danfeng Divine Tree, which can calm the mind, exorcise evil spirits, and eliminate demons, and has many magical effects." She almost didn't react, and said the Devouring Demon Willow in front of Li Shiwen, "You can hang it in the room, or try to plant it. If it grows alive, it will be a divine tree!
"This is a gift from the tree spirit of the divine tree. It's a very cute little guy. "
Li Shiwen didn't hear anything wrong in Li Shiyin's words, and just thought it was really Danfeng's willow branch, so he let Yuchi Zhen take it.
When Yuchi Zhen had it steady, Li Shiyin took out a small jar of wine. She knew that Li Shiwen liked to drink recently, so she handed it to him directly and said with a pout:
"This is the wedding wine that Qiqi gave you. Qiqi is the most insincere. This wine was actually given to her by someone else, but she gave it to you.
"But this wine is a spiritual wine, which can improve physical fitness and is very useful. Brother, drink it steadily, don't get drunk..."
Although the relationship is very intimate, she still didn't say the word "death" in such an occasion.
"Wine?" Li Shiwen took it happily and said with a smile, "I like this very much."
"You should drink less!" Li Shiyin warned again. As she spoke, she took out another porcelain bottle and handed it to Li Shiwen, explaining,
"There is a drop of blood in it, which is Zhuifeng's own blood. Alas, Zhuifeng is the poorest, and he gave his blood to you as a treasure.
"But Zhuifeng is an eighth-level monster, and this blood is really precious. Brother, you can use it to strengthen your own physique, or you can use it to improve your child's physique in the future."
"Zhuifeng?"
Li Shiwen still remembered the big cat in Danfeng. The big cat's name was the same as the dog they had grown up with. He knew that it was Li Shiyin who gave it.
"Zhuifeng also gave me a gift?" he asked.
The willow trees of the Xianmen will give gifts, and the cats of the Xianmen will also give gifts.
"If you have a chance, bring Zhuifeng out to play and let you see Zhuifeng now. Zhuifeng is now almost ten feet tall..." Li Shiyin stretched out her hand to show Li Shiwen how tall Zhuifeng's head was.
"Zhuifeng? "Li Shiwen nodded. That guy was an eighth-level monster. He could only imagine how terrifying an eighth-level monster was.
Li Shiyin took out another porcelain bottle. She poured out a thumb-sized water-patterned pill from it and handed it to Yuchi Zhen, introducing it:
"This is the pill refined by my master. It is said to be good for the next generation. I didn't understand it. It seems to say that when you get pregnant in the future, the baby will be protected. The baby will warm up the body in your belly and ensure the baby's safe birth. It seems to say that the mother will also warm up the body with the baby and get better. "
Although it is normal to wish the newlyweds a son as soon as possible, it is still embarrassing to give such a pill like this.
Yuchi Zhen didn't dare to ask Li Shiwen for his opinion, and asked softly, "Do you want to take it now?"
"Yes! The master said to take it as soon as possible, so as not to be snatched by others. "Li Shiyin nodded, and worried that Yuchi Zhen didn't believe it, so she added, "My master is very powerful. "
Yuchi Zhen smiled, reached out to take the pill, and swallowed it without hesitation.
For her, Li Shiyin was like a fairy. Although this fairy looked easy-going, everything she took out was a rare treasure. She had only seen such a fairy-like figure in her life, so she could only think that she was blessed, so how could she doubt it?
"Okay!" After giving the gifts, Li Shiyin stopped rummaging through the bag and congratulated her brother and sister-in-law in a serious manner, "I wish my brother and sister-in-law a happy wedding, a happy marriage, a son, a happy marriage, and a long life together..."
However, before she finished her messy congratulations, Li Shiwen interrupted her expressionlessly: "So where is yours?"
"What's mine?" Li Shiyin pretended to be stupid.
"Where's the gift you gave me?" Li Shiwen asked, "Everyone else gave it to me, but you didn't give it to me, right?!"
"Hehe!" Li Shiyin gave a sly smirk, raised an eyebrow at Li Shiwen, and said, "Idiot Li Shiwen, I'm teasing you! How could it be possible?"
As she spoke, she raised her beautiful right hand and intertwined her fingers as white as spring bamboo shoots...
"Snapped!"
She snapped her fingers.
Then the entire lobby darkened, and the roof turned into the night sky out of thin air. When everyone in the lobby was panicking, two Milky Ways snaked down from the night sky. The two Milky Ways circled around the room, turned into two swords, and then penetrated into the bodies of Li Shiwen and Yu Chizhen. .
Darkness comes and recedes. Li Shiyin turned her back to the others in the hall and faced her parents, brother and sister-in-law, and said aloud:
"The sword energy I have comprehended is the star sword energy, and the sword intention I have comprehended is the guarding sword intention. These two original sword energies will protect you like the stars. The stars will not be destroyed, and the sword energy will not dissipate."
She raised her head and stared at Li Shiwen, reached out to grab Li Shiwen's hand, and then took Yuchi Zhen's hand, folding their hands on her own. She said with unprecedented seriousness, "I will always protect you."
Such a silly sister... Li Shiwen was moved in his heart, his eyes turned red, and he held Li Shiyin in his arms and remained silent for a long time.
Until the ceremony official shouted: "The auspicious time has arrived, the bride and groom enter the bridal chamber."
He then let go of Li Shiyin and led his newly married wife into the bridal chamber.
