Chapter 80 There Will Be That Day There is a temple in Kyoto called "Toga Temple". The temple is very popular and is located on Tianbao Mountain in the suburbs. However, if you want to go to Toga Temple, you have to pass through the Wanshi Cemetery.
Here are buried the military souls of generations since the founding of the Xia Dynasty 500 years ago. Most of the soldiers who died on the battlefield without returning home will be sent to the Eternal Cemetery for burial here.
On the monuments, there are names recorded one after another that seem like child's play.
Two dogs.
Zhang San.
Li Ya.
There are hundreds of monuments in succession, bearing countless names. These names represent the soldiers who fought bravely for Daxia.
Their blood formed the flesh and blood of Daxia.
Their military spirit formed the backbone of Daxia.
At this moment, countless soldiers are carrying the bodies of their fallen comrades here. Some bodies are claimed by their families and returned to their roots, but more soldiers have no choice. Some of them are the only ones left in their homes, and some of them are far away from here. Thousands of miles.
Fang Chen stood with his hands behind his back, followed by Master Qinghe, and on the other side stood You Longchang, who was covered in blood.
"General You, have you done the statistics? How many soldiers were killed in our Daxia battle this time?"
Fang Chen said.
You Longchang immediately took out a scroll of paper from his arms, opened it, took a look, and said solemnly: "Eight thousand, three hundred and six people died."
"More than 8000 people..."
Fang Chen was slightly silent.
When the nearby soldiers saw Fang Chen here, they couldn't help but cast admiring glances at him, but they still didn't delay their work. After all, they wanted to send their brothers to a proper burial, so they couldn't be distracted.
"Brother, why are you holding Longdu's cavalry so tightly? You can't bury Longdu's offenders here together, right?"
A muttering came from not far away.
Everyone looked up and saw a Daxia soldier hugging a Longdu cavalryman. The cavalryman had already lost his head, but there was a sword in his hand, which penetrated the heart of the Daxia soldier.
Fang Chen remembered his father's explanation and said, "He sacrificed himself to trap this air-bending warrior from Longdu Kingdom, and was killed by my father with a knife."
When the surrounding soldiers heard this, they immediately stood in awe, you are the Qi-bending warriors of Longdu Kingdom!This is a great achievement! "Bury them together. This is his merit."
Fang Chen said.
"Yes, Fang Junshen!"
The soldiers immediately nodded and Fang Chen spoke. They didn't care about the rules and regulations. What's more, this Daxia soldier, as a mortal, helped Fang Canghai kill a Qi-bending warrior from Longdu Kingdom. Takefu.
This is a huge achievement. If they can be buried together, it will be like writing a mark on the monument! "Master Qinghe, they are here."
Fang Chen suddenly said softly.
Master Qinghe kept her eyes closed. After hearing Fang Chen's voice, she slowly opened her eyes. Her face instantly turned pale and she nodded slightly: "It's all there."
In her field of vision, there were figures with monstrous blood standing around her, but these figures were not as violent as some of the ghosts she had seen before.
There was no cry for injustice, no crying to heaven and earth.
He just looked at Fang Chen quietly, with a hint of longing and reluctance for this world in his eyes.
"Good to go, everyone."
Fang Chen cupped his hands.
Countless military souls returned the greeting slowly, and then walked towards the Eternal Cemetery step by step.
Ye Qinghe and others happened to see this scene, and a touch of cynicism flashed in Tao Yu's eyes.
"Fang Junshen, thank you for what happened last night."
Ye Qinghe reluctantly stepped forward to thank him.
"Yeah." Fang Chen nodded lightly, then turned and looked away.
When Ye Qinghe saw that he had come to express his gratitude in person, but the other party was so cold, a flash of anger flashed in his eyes. However, before he could speak, Tao Yu took the lead and said:
"Fang Junshen is here today to say goodbye to these fallen soldiers in person?"
"Are my eyes blind, or are your eyes blind?"
Fang Chen looked at Tao Yu, his gray-white eyes dull.
Tao Yu sneered: "I think Fang Junshen's move is suspected of being a show. It seems to be for the people around here to see?"
There are already many people who come to offer incense on weekdays. Today, Longdu's siege was defeated, so there is an endless stream of people who come to offer incense and pay their wishes. After passing by, they will stop and watch for a while to show their respect for these fallen soldiers.
Tao Yu's words immediately made their eyes fall on Fang Chen.
Seeing the attention of these people, Tao Yu immediately said: "Many soldiers were killed in Daxia this time. Fang Junshen seems very sad, but have you ever thought that the bones of the 60 soldiers who died in Sanjie Mountain have never returned to Daxia?"
Everyone's expressions changed.
This incident was the saddest thing in the hearts of the people of Daxia in the past five years.
The 60-year-old Daxia Erlang died in the battle at Sanjie Mountain, but he couldn't even recover his bones.
You Longchang frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Master Tao, if you don't understand fighting on the battlefield, don't talk nonsense. Don't say that I, Da Xia Erlang, can't come back, and Qingsong Wufu who died in Sanjie Mountain can't come back either. How much manpower and material resources would it take to transport hundreds of thousands of corpses back one by one?
What's more, there will be people waiting for the opportunity to attack and assassinate while transporting the bones. Even if we win that battle in Daxia, the fallen soldiers will be buried on the spot! "
"Is this the reason you warriors gave? It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. All we know is that the people Fang Chen brought out not only died, but they couldn't even return to Daxia after they died."
Tao Yu sneered, "So, if Fang Junshen has time to mourn here, why not think more about how to return the souls of my 60 army in Daxia to their hometown?"
You Longchang was about to speak, but Fang Chen waved his hand to stop him.
"you're right."
Fang Chen smiled at Tao Yu, "No matter what your purpose is, what you said is true, and I agree with it, so there will be a day."
Tao Yu was stunned, as if he didn't expect Fang Chen to directly agree with what he said, but he immediately reacted and asked: "When is that day?"
"What does it have to do with you? Do you want to go to the Three Realms Mountains with me?"
Fang Chen smiled lightly.
Tao Yu was immediately choked and had nothing to say. There was no way he would agree to go to the Three Realms Mountains with Fang Chen. If he got out alive by then, he might not be able to come back alive.
"I just hope Fang Junshen won't just talk."
Tao Yu sneered, turned and left.
Anyway, many people have heard what Fang Chen said today. If Fang Chen does not bring 60 bones back to Daxia, over time, some people will secretly discuss it. This will also damage Fang Chen's prestige, and his purpose is also Reached.
"Fang Junshen, don't take Tao Yu's words to heart. If the 60 corpses...can't be recovered, Qingsong won't just watch."
You Longchang comforted him.
Fang Chen gently patted You Longchang on the shoulder:
“Nothing is impossible, as long as you want to do it, everything is possible.”
After saying that, he took Master Qinghe and left slowly.
You Longchang was stunned on the spot, thinking about this sentence secretly, but he still did not believe that Fang Chen had a way to get the bones of 60 Daxia soldiers back from the Three Realms Mountains.
This is not only a matter of long distance and huge consumption of manpower and material resources.
Those bones are like bait for the Qingsong Kingdom, waiting for Daxia to take the bait...
