Late at night, in the northern part of the country, there is a piercing cold in the desolation.
Xu Xinnian, who dozed by the campfire, woke up regularly, put his hands on the shoulders of the two soldiers and recited in a low voice: "blood is boiling!"
The two soldiers groaned comfortably, no longer curled up for warmth as before, and showed a little satisfaction in their sleep.
The Allied forces of yaoman and Dafeng were scattered by the heavy cavalry of Yasukuni, and many things, such as rations and daily necessities, were not carried in time.
No tents, no beds, no bedding, in the north of autumn, camping is a very difficult thing. The soldiers may even cause wind chill, get sick and die.
In the case of lack of materials, getting sick is tantamount to death...
Therefore, Xu Erlang will wake up regularly in the middle of the night to apply the cold dispelling and warming magic for the soldiers.
He is already a benevolent person of eight grades. In addition to being physically stronger than ordinary people, the Confucian students in this realm have mastered the rudiment of following the way they speak.
Language is power!
To a certain extent, Xu Erlang can exert any state, weakness, courage, or pain relief on the target....
the so-called certain degree is to maintain rationality.
For example, Xu Erlang's current level can only stimulate the soldiers' potential to ward off the cold. If president Zhao Shou is here, he will sing a song: beautiful desert scenery, march days ~
the surrounding climate will change from autumn to spring, and keep for a long time.
One by one, after applying the cold expelling magic for the soldiers, Xu Erlang looked tired. He took a piece of dried meat from his arms and tore it hard.
At this time, he found that Chu Yuan Zhen did not sleep, the number one scholar Lang sat with his back against the carriage, the soles of his feet fell into the ground and dug out a deep hole.
Xu Erlang got up, walked over, sat down beside Chu Yuanzhen, and said, "what's the matter? Your face has been very wrong since you just passed the book."
"I just feel that the trust between people is suddenly gone..."
Chu Yuanzhen, with an autistic expression on his face, looks at Xu Zijiu, and after a pause, whispers:
"Erlang, I've said a lot of strange things to you before and done strange things. I hope you don't mind. Now looking back on those, I feel goose bumps all over my body. I just feel that my reputation will be destroyed once I die. "
Xu Erlang thought about it and said, "you mean standing on the street and smiling at me for no reason?"
Chu yuanzhenru was struck by lightning: "don't, don't say......"
the truth is very obvious, the third is Xu Qian, who has been pretending his cousin Xu Xinnian. The third says that he doesn't want his identity exposed, so it's better not to mention the book when he meets.
No. 3 said, I'm going to go out with the army. I'll give the fragments of the book to my elder brother for safekeeping.
All of these are deceptive, in order to cover up the fact that Xu Ningyan is No. 3.
However, Xu Erlang's cooperation is also very good.
Chu Yuanzhen reluctantly asked: "you say you don't know the fragments of the book, but you always think you are special to me, um, tolerant. No matter what strange things I say or do, you have no response. "
Many of the conversations that he thought were tacit at that time are now entirely monologues, because Erlang doesn't know about the book and doesn't have that tacit understanding.
Xu Xinnian said frankly: "elder brother told me that no matter what strange things you say or do, I don't want to be strange, or give you a smile, or nod, or ignore."
The soles of Chu Yuan Zhen's feet were deeply dug into the ground again.
But soon, Chu Yuanzhen, with a flexible mind, thought that Xu Ningyan had been pretending to be his cousin. In order to meet the needs of the people, he often boasted about "big brother" in the fragments of the local book, saying a lot of things that make people feel numb just thinking about it.
If Xu Ningyan knows that I know his identity, the embarrassed person should be him!
You can't let him go!
Chu Yuan Zhen suddenly smiles, which is very understanding.
...
Xu's residence in Beijing.
Xu Qi'an felt that his head had been patted, and he woke up in an instant. Because he had had several similar experiences, he didn't doubt that Taiping Dao and Zhong Li had knocked him on the head.
Really, the private chat in the middle of the night, that son of a bitch, is not Huaiqing without night life again...... he skillfully pulls out the fragments of the book from under the pillow, then gets up, goes to the table and lights the candle.
In the glow of the fire, he sat down and looked at the message.
[4: Xu Qian, you are the number three, right? You have been cheating us. 】
Xu Qi'an was stunned.
When did Chu Yuanzhen know my identity?
When did I get exposed?
He finally saw through my identity through Xu Erlang's flaws?
At this moment, shame is like the tide, no, tsunami, engulfed him.After Chu Yuanzhen passed on the book, he did not speak any more, while Xu Qian fell into a great sense of shame and lost his "courage" to reply.
It took a long time for Xu Bai's whoring to calm down and send a letter to reply: "yes, you are the first one to see through my identity inside the heaven and earth society, except for Taoist Jinlian. 】
no matter how shameful and embarrassing it is in reality, I am still wise and hit hard on the Internet.
The key is that only in this way can we resolve the embarrassment.
[4: Oh, it's not bad. In fact, I've been suspicious for a long time, but I've only been completely sure recently. 】
[3: you are the number one scholar. 】
one of them wanted to go back to Beijing with his sword, and he chopped down Xu. A shameful man wanted to cover his face and felt that it was meaningless to live.
But they all deliberately pretend to be indifferent.
[3] recently discovered? 】Four: ah, two hours ago, after I asked about your brother-in-law, Erlang confessed to me. 】
what happened to Erlang? It's not reliable at all, eh? What happened to my second uncle's comrades in arms?... Xu Qi'an frowned and said: "my second uncle's comrades in arms? 】
it turns out that Xu Ningyan doesn't really care. He pretends to be... Chu Yuanzhen tells the story of Zhou Biao and Zhao Panyi again.
Bang Dang!
The sound of the stool overturning awakened Zhong Li. She rubbed her eyes and looked up.
About a quarter of an hour later, she saw Xu Qi'an blow dry the ink, fold the paper and put it in the book solemnly. She breathed and murmured:
"this is the principle of shielding the secret."
"What's the principle?" Zhong Li raised her ears and asked in a low voice.
"Don't ask. Asking is a secret." Xu seven an white her one eye, "you a professional student, good meaning ask me this layman?"
Zhong Li lowered her head in shame and curled up in the blanket to get the only warmth left in the world.
Xu Qi'an breathed out a breath, calmed his mood, and sent a message: "brother Chu, can you keep this secret for me? 】
Chu Yuanzhen's reply: "your identity is not a secret, there is no need to hide it. 】
Xu Qi'an seems to have seen the far north, and Chu Yuan Zhen's face is full of banter and sneer.
[3: Well, if I want to make it public, I'd like to confess myself. What I did was really inappropriate, which made brother Chu always regard the resignation as No. 3. He believed in it, said a lot of wrong things and did a lot of wrong things. 】
[4: actually, I don't care whether your identity is exposed or not. 】
damn Xu Qi'an, when I get back to Beijing, I will cut your golden body with one sword...
after a pause, Chu Yuanzhen sends a letter again, saying: "Xu Erlang knows about Dishu, and also knows that Hengyuan and I were cheated by you at the beginning, which caused great trouble to him. 】
... Xu Qi'an's biography: so? 】
I feel ashamed and can't look up. I need a handle to balance the relationship between Erlang and me. 】
[3: I see. I have time to chat with Erlang about poetry. His famous work is: If heaven does not give birth to me, I will make new year's day, and I will be honored forever.
[4: HMM. 】
after calming the number one scholar, Xu Qi'an goes back to his bed, shoves the fragments of the book into his pillow, and then wriggles around like a maggot.
Venting the shame of going over the river and over the sea.
I've never been so embarrassed in my life..... It's too humiliating. My image and face of Xu Qi'an are all gone..... Now everyone knows about me except Hengyuan..... Eh, wait a minute, everyone knows, but if everyone doesn't say it, I'm not dead?!
Even if everyone knows, everyone is keeping a secret for him, or even covering up, trying to make others believe that Xu cijiu is number three.
In this case, I'm not dead.
On the other hand, even if we have a showdown in the future, because it's already known to all, I don't think there will be any targets for the society to die. On the contrary, they are the ones who try their best to cover up for me and mislead others. They are the ones who really die.
Xu Qian's eyes brightened.
Peace of mind, well, go to bed early, tomorrow is the date to explore the dragon with my aunt.
The next day.
After washing and gargling, Xu Qi'an finished his breakfast and sat in the room waiting. Not long after, the golden light penetrated the roof without destroying it. In the brilliance, Luo Yuheng's tall and exquisite figure appeared.
She was wearing the same Taoist robe that she had seen last time, with her waist tied up to highlight the size of her chest.
This undoubtedly enhanced her feminine charm, enhanced her sense of existence as a woman, and reduced her awe inspiring and inviolable fairy aura.
"National teacher!"
Xu Qian greets warmly with a smile.
Luo Yuheng nodded slightly and said, "I'll take you there."Although he had sufficient confidence in Luo Yuheng, he asked cautiously for the sake of Conservatism: "will he let the other party find out?"
"No!"
Luo Yuheng's tone was calm, and his face was as delicate as carving. He said, "I will cover up the breath."
Except for Wu Fu, all major systems are gaudy and envious. Xu Qi'an smiles: "it's not too late to act as soon as possible."
Luo Yuheng nodded and waved his sleeves. The golden light rolled Xu Qian and took him to disappear in the room.
As soon as he opened and closed his eyes, Xu Qi'an saw the rockeries in the back garden of Pingyuan Bofu, and heard Luo Yuheng's voice full of texture: "is it here?"
He should be a, go to a rockery, familiar press mechanism.
There is a "door" on the surface of the rockery, revealing a dark hole.
"Guoshi, this is the underground cave." Xu Qian said.
Luo Yuheng nodded and followed him into the cave.
Soon, they came to the stone room and saw the big stone plate, which was full of twisted and strange incantations.
Luo Yuheng stood by the stone plate and looked at it carefully. He said, "the skill of tudun is very high. It's really like elder martial brother Jinlian's handwriting."
"Elder martial brother Jinlian?"
Xu Qian expressed his doubts.
According to the feedback from the living records of the late emperor, Taoist Jinlian and the previous Taoist leader of Renzong are of the same generation. In Jianzhou, the part of LSP heilian once uttered wild words, calling Luo Yuheng's good niece to practice with her.
The tall and beautiful national teacher casually explained: "the three patriarchs are equal."
In terms of status, the three patriarchs are equal, so Taoist Jinlian is her elder martial brother. But in terms of age, Jin Lian and her father are of the same generation, so they can also be martial uncles?
Xu Qian suddenly thought, hands did not stop, took out the book fragments, placed on the stone plate.
...
Huaiqing mansion, study.
Sitting on the soft chair in the study, he had a purple rhinoceros sandalwood case handed down from the Da Zhou period.
Put the ink on the paper, her eyes were covered with white ink.
After a quarter of an hour's silence, Huaiqing finally wrote down "the 26th year of Joan of arc", "pollution", "being possessed by the local patriarch", "slaughtering the city of Chuzhou", "soul pill" and so on.
Assuming that the head of the land clan is the culprit, Xu Qi'an's conjecture is reasonable and tenable.
At present, many clues found can be mapped one by one. Although there are also some unreasonable points, this is because they have not been thoroughly investigated.
Therefore, there will be details that are not right, such as the purpose of the land patriarch to pollute the emperor and the huaiwang.
"My father wanted to kill Hengyuan because Hengyuan saw the secret road of Pingyuan Bofu. In other words, my father knew the existence of the patriarch. Since the Chuzhou massacre, my father has been making wedding clothes for the local patriarch. What is the purpose? "
This is the most unreasonable thing Huaiqing thinks. From her point of view, if there is no interest, any alliance will be unstable.
"Unless my father is completely controlled by the head of the local clan..... The interest disputes in the court, the door, the Golden Lotus Taoist priest eat thoroughly?"
"It is the case of Chuzhou City massacre that exposes the collusion between father and emperor, Huai king and local patriarch, which shows that the case of Chuzhou City massacre is very important to them, and the essence of this case is blood pill and soul pill."
"The soul pill is very important..."
time goes by quietly. I don't know how long later, Huaiqing's lovely ears move slightly, catching the distant footsteps and coming towards the study.
She quickly crumpled the paper into a ball, pinched it in her hand and folded it in her sleeve.
Waiting for more than ten seconds, the footsteps stopped at the door, and the maid in waiting whispered: "Your Highness, girl Caiwei is here."
Huaiqing coldly reply: "let her in."
After the maid of honor stepped down, Chu Caiwei came in with a cheerful step. She held an orange in her two little hands and said in a delicate voice, "Huaiqing, I want to eat sweet scented osmanthus."
Sweet scented osmanthus fish is the unique skill of Huaiqing's chef. It's unique and can't be eaten outside.
Huaiqing laughed: "OK, I'll have the kitchen informed."
Chu Caiwei is very happy to take out a big bag of cakes from the deerskin purse and share the delicious food with Huaiqing.
They are eating cakes and drinking tea, chatting casually for a moment, Huaiqing tone as usual asked: "Caiwei, do you know the soul pill?"
"Eh, why do you ask about Qi soul Dan recently?"
Chu Caiwei looked at her best friend in surprise: "a while ago, Xu Qian also came to the star watching building to check the soul pill, and asked me how I could know, so I took him to the library."
"What's the use of soul pill?" Huaiqing is open-minded to ask for advice.
Chu Caiwei suddenly showed a "lucky you" face, hummed: "I didn't know, but last time I read with Xu Qian, I knew."
After a pause, she said: "the soul pill is a good thing, which has a wide range of uses. It can strengthen the spirit, act as the material of alchemy, refine magic weapon, repair the imperfect soul, and cultivate the spirit."Repair the unsound soul...... Huaiqing's breath suddenly shortens and knocks over the tea cup.
