The solar system is broken

Chapter 143: Desperate Chengli

Regarding this conversation between Huo Shan and Moss, An Lan did not reveal much to the writer.

But through the narrative the writer can clearly feel the seriousness of the situation.

The writer is somewhat fortunate that he escaped the massacre.

But soon he began to worry about Xiao Li and Han Ling'er, and didn't know how they were doing.

It doesn't matter if you think about it, Han Ling'er should be safe in the wealthy area on Baoquan Mountain.

"So you caught a big fish?"

"Yes." An Lan shook the pencil in his hand. He was not very busy now and just chatted with the writer.

"What is the identity of this Chengli?"

Cheng Li is a bit complicated to talk about.

According to our registered place of residence, he was a native of Qishan in the Western Zhou Dynasty and the adopted son of Ji Li.

Ji Li is the father of Chang, the current leader of the Zhou people, and the uncle of the current Zhou Wangfa according to seniority.

But what? The so-called adopted son is of no help to Chengli at all.

When Ji Li was favored by Emperor Wen Ding of Shang Dynasty, Cheng Li followed Ji Li to conquer the Dog Rong and made great achievements.

Later, Wen Ding was suspicious of Ji Li, and the emperor ordered Ji Li to go to Chao Ge. Cheng Li and the princes tried their best to persuade him not to go.

As a result, Ji Li was the capital of Yin, and Ming was granted the title of Xibo (the leader of the Western princes), but he was actually under house arrest in Chaoge. Ji Li died on a hunger strike (this is what the merchants said, but he was most likely killed).

Cheng Li, who went with him, was also imprisoned in Chaoge.

To put it this way, Chengli and Yin Shang were mortal enemies.

But the truth is so wonderful. During his imprisonment, Cheng Li would rather die than surrender.

Teng Gong, the Grand Master at that time, saw that this man had good integrity and strong abilities, so he suggested to Wen Ding that Cheng Li should be released.

It's a pity that Wen Ding was unwilling to release his enemy, considering this person's background.

Teng Gong was not a simple man. He patted Wen Ding's chest and promised that he would take care of the matter.

To be honest, Teng Gong didn't do anything.

He directly sent Chengli back to Xiqi, and toasted him as he left.

When the King of Shang saw that it was okay to let the tiger return to the mountain, he wanted to capture it.

Teng Gong smiled and would come back soon.

As expected, when Cheng Li returned to Qishan, he was greeted by deserted Zhou people.

Xibohou is dead, how did a little follower like you come back alive?

Even Cheng Li's explanations failed to dispel the doubts of this group of people, and this was just a foreshadowing for Cheng Li and the Zhou people.

Then Teng Gong gave a strong medicine and asked someone to go to Qishan at night to deliver a letter.

A wooden tablet with only a simple poem engraved on it. This poem is very ordinary.

But the person who sent the letter was not an ordinary person. In modern times, he would definitely be at the level of an actor.

After the messenger handed the letter to Cheng Li, he went to the underground wine shop.

(Zhou people were not allowed to drink alcohol without reason, and moonshine was illegal.)

Then I got very drunk there.

He accidentally revealed the news that he had gone to Chengli's house to deliver something, and then the enthusiastic Zhou people arrested the stranger and sent him to the gentleman's house.

After a few ladles of cold water went down, the messenger woke up in fear.

After using some tricks, the messenger squeezed out a few words through his teeth, "Teng Gong presented a poem to Chengli."

You said I would give you a poem? I would believe it?

So several Zhou nobles mentioned this matter in an insinuating manner during the wax festival.

Cheng Li saw that the paper could not contain the fire, and he was also an upright person. He immediately ordered people to get the Teng Gong's poem and show it to all the young masters.

That’s right, it’s still poetry.

But if you say it’s poetry, it’s poetry? Who believes you? There’s no way you can replace it?

Suspicion is like poison. Once poisoned, it is difficult not to die.

Although no questions were asked, trust has dropped significantly.

He said he believed in Chengli and was always loyal and would not doubt him. But his behavior made Chengli very uncomfortable.

Cheng Li was no longer allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the Zhou people, and he was gradually excluded from the center of power.

At this point, it’s just Chengli retiring early.

Cheng Li couldn't see that he couldn't pee in a chamber pot, so he asked Li Xiqi to go to Dongshan to guard the border.

However, Teng Gong's plan did not end here. The next year, Teng Gong announced with a high profile that he would inspect the western princes on behalf of the emperor.

As a duke, his status is higher than that of Xibohou.

The people of the Zhou Dynasty waited tremblingly for the arrival of Teng Gongdi. Originally, the shortest way from Chaoge to Xiqi was to take the Shang-Zhou Road, which went out of Luozui Mountain, crossed Weishui, entered Dongguan, and ended at Xiqi.

Teng Gong didn't care. He left Luozui Mountain, turned a big bend, and headed towards Dongshan Mountain.

Zhou people can no longer suppress their anger at this time, Cheng Li, what do you mean?

However, as a gentleman, Cheng Li always had a clear distinction between grievances and grievances. Although Duke Teng was an enemy, he was still alive.

In the peach forest of Dongshan (the heat was still very abundant at that time), a banquet was held in honor of Teng Gong.

Some of the depression accumulated in my heart disappeared after a few glasses of wine.

I sang a miserable song, and it was so poetic when paired with the burning peach blossoms.

When Teng Gong got drunk, he put his arms around Cheng Li's neck. If you can't survive anymore, or come over, I'll support you.

Chengli knew it was a good intention, but he didn't agree. He just said that if the Zhou Dynasty is over, I will go.

Zhou no longer exists, I will come again.

This sentence is really interesting. If you take it out of context and string it together, you will see that Cheng Li is not a human being.

By the time Teng Gong completed his tour, Cheng Li could no longer survive in Zhou.

The nobles of the Zhou Dynasty even threatened to destroy Chengli.

In extreme panic, Cheng Li couldn't bear it and made a wrong decision, Ben Hua.

Hua Bo was from the Shang Dynasty. Although the relationship was not very good, he was regarded as surrendering to the enemy.

It's okay, because the Zhou people were furious and directly annihilated the nine Chengli tribes (this is why he only had one son).

At this point, Chengli was completely forced to rebel, and Chengli cried his heart out in the Huahou Mansion.

My whole heart is towards Zhou, but Zhou is not towards me.

At this time, the good old man Teng Gong showed up and extended an olive branch to Chengli.

Even if Cheng Li is a fool, he still knows what Teng Gong is up to.

Now that things have come to this, Chengli realizes that he has severed all ties and there is no need to ever forget Zhou.

Cheng Li knew very well that if the Zhou people did not have thieves in their hearts, then it would be useless no matter how hard Teng Gong tried to confuse them.

During the Wen Ding dynasty, Chengli's achievements were not fruitful.

Wen Ding died, and the new emperor focused on Xu Yi.

At this time, Chengli became rich. Chengli was appointed by Duke Teng to conquer Xuyi in the east.

Cheng Li was very experienced in fighting and was very good at fighting barbarians. Xu Yi was directly beaten by him and drifted out of the sea in seventy years.

Chengli's achievements suddenly reached their peak.

As a Zhou native, he could only become the brigade commander of an Asian brigade.

Zi Lan, a rising star, turned from his subordinate to his boss.

His life was very bleak. Fortunately, Duke Teng saw his value.

Lord Teng~

He has a high crown, a long beard and a snow-white beard, and a very calm smile.

Holding the long sword in his hand, he stood beside the sacrificial tripod of Emperor Shang and sang a congratulation.

Amidst the disturbance of candlelight, he looked back at the young general in the hall.

"Male from Changyi (Chengli fiefdom)~"

"Here is the boy." The two sides quarreled.

Teng Gong's glory was outside, and Cheng Li did not dare to have any fear in his shadow.

Dan was standing high, and the man looked down on him in panic.

Teng Gong is a name that shines brightly but also leaves a shadow.

The blood is surging and floating across the face. The left side is a smiling face, and the right side is a crying face.

The smiling face is his bosom friend, friend, comrade-in-arms and other people with deep memories.

Each crying face represents someone he has hurt, someone he has killed, someone he hates...

The blood-colored sacrificial cauldron was boiling with blood-red blood, and the smell was unpleasant.

White skulls are built one after another, and the Beijing view stands tall.

They hissed and groaned, cursing Chengli.

He pressed the sword firmly on his waist and walked forward step by step.

The bloody wind and rain hit the upright chest, and the horrific scene slapped the veteran, seeming to destroy his will.

"Leave!"

"Who?" He drew out his sword.

"Du~"

"Teng Gong?"

"Long time no see Mr. Li~"

A figure splits the light and darkness, at the far end.

The black robe curled and flew, sweeping left and right. Teng Gong's left was bright and his right was dark.

"Teng Gong..." The sword in Cheng Li's hand fell to the ground.

"A real man should be born with the righteousness of the emperor and his ministers in mind, and the friendship of the five parties with the outside world, so as to forge the emperor's elixir and majesty."

"When the world is changing, we can support people with lofty ideals and move forward with a single drumbeat."

"Leave the patriots in the flames of war, and the entire country fall into the hands of thieves, and they will be sacrificed in this battle."

"Leave, ten thousand deaths."

Teng Gong did not speak. He was always so wise and listened quietly to Cheng Li's confession.

Chengli's mood was on the verge of collapse, it was too miserable.

His bloodline no longer exists, and the Shang Kingdom is declining. (Bo: approaching)

"It's your fault~" he sighed far away.

"Tokiya~"

The upright shadow slowly moved forward.

"Teng Gong, boy..."

"When the time comes, don't follow."

"I..." Chengli is not afraid of death, but he is afraid of being forgotten.

"Send to Duke Teng~"

The wind is stirring.

The rain is falling.

Cheng Li sat alone on his knees in the dripping water, at a loss.

All gone.

Adoptive father Ji Li, benefactor Teng Gong, Shang Emperor Wen Ding...

So lonely~

...

"Cough cough cough!"

Dazzling lights.

"Trigeminal nerve stress response, severe pain stimulation reflex causes inhibition of the vasomotor center and decreases blood return."

"Neurally mediated syncope."

"The reaction is relatively normal and no medication is needed. Just bandage the wound."

"good."

The strong smell, mixed with the smell of disinfectant and blood, impacted the consciousness inside the skull.

"No matter what, this person cannot die~"

A hoarse voice, quite majestic, with an undeniable tone.

"clear..."

"But General Huo, I hope you will pay more attention to your own body..."

Ward.

White.

Huo Shan leaned on a cane and sat in front of the window.

There was an old man lying upright on the bed, and Huo Shan just stared at him.

Nosebleeds continue.

Two blue earthworms squirmed downward.

Huo Shan couldn't resist anymore. He couldn't stand firmly and had to ask the guards to get him a chair to sit on.

The guard took a handkerchief and wiped it with Huo Shan, but Huo Shan was a little ungrateful.

"It's just...cough cough cough~"

"Okay, please doctor, please get me some medicine."

You have to be strong throughout your life, but you have to bow your head in the face of life, old age, illness and death.

"Well..."

This is Guangtai Prison Hospital. Huo Shan came over without taking a breath. He seemed to be very concerned about this prisoner.

"doctor."

"General Huo."

"Watch the bed, I want to know when he wakes up as soon as possible."

"good."

Huo Shan supported his body and stood up slowly. His body leaned several times.

It's time to rest, my body is a bit overwhelmed.

"Where's Eugene's spy?"

"They are being detained in the building inside."

"Okay, I'll take a rest first."
