Book 4: The Cruel Truth, the Rotten Soul 2, You can't do good because your good deeds are fruitless

After a night, Yan Li still found nothing, and walked out of the study room dejectedly, the sunlight was already very dazzling, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to block it.

Pranya Futu came out of the morning class and said softly: "I asked Xiaochun to cook porridge, let's eat it together." ”

"Eat it, I'm not hungry. Yan Li shook his head and walked out.

"What, what a guy who has no one in his eyes, Miss don't pay attention to him!" Xiao Chun came out of the room with a Gu and said angrily.

Pranyo Futu shook and smiled at her, and then said to Yan Li's back: "Yan Gongzi, ancient books have the value of existence, but they may not really be able to find answers, and sometimes the strange things recorded by the government are even more mysterious. ”

Yan Li paused and said, "Thank you for your advice." ”

Yesterday was a suspension of school, so that he could recuperate Xuanjun, and today is the beginning of the Zhou Wheel, and Shen Liuyun taught the heart method, palm technique and hand-to-hand combat.

But when he went to the school, Shen Liuyun didn't come, so he changed to a temporary inner courtyard to teach. In fact, there are only four people left in the inner courtyard now, and there are really not many people who can teach them in the temporary inner courtyard. The crowd was a little listless, and the lecture was very embarrassing, and they wished they could finish it quickly.

Yan Li finally got to the end of school, so he walked to Liuyun Xiaozhu, only to see that the doors outside the courtyard were closed, he jumped lightly, and jumped over the courtyard door, and the door of the bedroom was also closed, and he was about to go up and knock on the door, when he heard the sound of conversation inside.

"Master, it's the last time, and the disciple doesn't want to spend the last time with this appearance. ”

"How is that possible...... The Soul Rejuvenation Pill that was prepared for the teacher also lost its effectiveness...... It seems that as a teacher or a frog at the bottom of the well, the price you pay is far greater than you imagined......"

Then there was a deep sigh, and there was the fluctuation of true qi.

Yan Li sat on the ground in silence and waited patiently. He knew that Shen Liuyun's old state had been changed by a mysterious person using an unknown method, but it didn't last long, and he had to recast the spell every once in a while.

Although the voice was familiar, he had never seen this mysterious man from beginning to end.

It didn't take long for the true qi fluctuations inside to stop, and as always, the aura of that mysterious figure disappeared.

Yan Li knew that he was gone, so he pushed the door and went in, and saw Shen Liuyun sitting in front of the dresser combing his hair, looking at his face from the bronze mirror, with a look of affection.

"Xiao Fan, don't you know that you have to knock on the door when you enter someone else's room, it's too rude. ”

"How do you feel?" Yan said, "In the past, you would always have a period of discomfort. ”

"I don't feel anything anymore. Shen Liuyun smiled and said, "Perhaps, my time has stopped a long time ago, and I still refuse to close my eyes, and I still can't rest assured of you." ”

"Aunt Yun!" Yan Li gritted his teeth.

"Come here. Shen Liuyun turned around and beckoned to him.

Yan Li walked over and crouched in front of her lap.

Shen Liuyun flicked his finger on his forehead: "Look at you, your eyes are full of bloodshots, you didn't sleep last night." ”

"It hurts. Yan Li shouted softly.

"If you know it hurts, you're still alive. Shen Liuyun gently smoothed his brows, "As long as you live, there is hope, and my aunt has not given up, so you will be sad and sad, as if I have no cure." ”

touched his hair: "Good, aunt won't stop you from being sad and sad, if your aunt is really gone." However, indulgence is not allowed, it is only a day or two at most, you have to learn to adapt, and 'loss' is what everyone should master. So you only have a day or two of sadness, and now you use it, what will you do then? Auntie is still alive, you can't make me happy, isn't that what you're best at?"

Yan Li's nose was sore, and she hurriedly hugged her and buried her head deeply. He didn't allow himself to be weak, and there was still a lot he didn't do. Raising his head again, he regained his firmness: "I said I wouldn't let you die!"

Shen Liuyun was stunned, then nodded with a smile, and responded softly: "Well, my aunt believes in you." ”

Leaving Liuyun Xiaozhu, Yanli went straight to the duckweed garden, even ignoring Xiaochun's white eyes, and went straight into the bookstore.

Praruo Futu was reading a book, and when he heard the footsteps, he knew that it was him, and said: "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, Yan Gongzi hasn't closed his eyes for two nights in a row, it's better to take a short rest, otherwise he will drag down his body, and Shen Jiaoxi will really lose hope." ”

Shen Liuyun's situation can't be hidden from people with a heart, not to mention the same teaching.

"The layman has a heart. Yan Li just shook his head, and then his eyes scanned the bookshelf to select, and he didn't have much time, so he could only read some books that might have clues.

Xiaochun came in with a cup of tea at the right time, and said angrily: "Miss, I really don't understand, your kindness is always rejected, knowing that others will not accept it, why do you still do superfluous things?"

Prajna Futu smiled and said, "You can't do good deeds because they are fruitless. ”

Xiaochun was very unconvinced, but she knew that she couldn't argue with her, so she simply turned around and left, and muttered in a low voice: "Didn't Shen Liuyun just teach you something, you have to die or live, and make up here every day......

Yan Li was in no mood to worry about the little girl. At this time, he saw a very torn paper book in the corner, he walked over and pulled it out, only to see that the cover read: Apocalypse Chronicle. It was written by a man named Liu Song.

The name is very unfamiliar, but "Apocalypse Chronicle" sounds very atmospheric, and for some reason it has been covered in dust.

Turning the title page, it reads: Chronicle of Crazy Life, scribbled a few strokes, book two or three things about the apocalypse.

The preface is very careless, and with this attitude, his book cannot be widely promoted.

The first page reads: In the eighteenth year of Guangyuan, Emperor Qing died, the whole country mourned, Emperor Wu ascended the throne, changed the name of the apocalypse, when Emperor Wu was seventeen, hunted the world's beautiful men, filled the harem, indulged in prostitution, neglected the government, the Chinese scholar shot Fu Shengyuan, the Chinese scholar Liu Wentong, the governor Liu Jin and other admonitions were unsuccessful, and were hanged......

Yan Li knew that Emperor Wu had done some ridiculous things in his early years, but he didn't expect it to be so absurd. There is no record in the current history books, and it turns out that it is not that the historian does not use his life, but he does not dare to write.

He was not interested in Emperor Wu's romance, so he hurriedly browsed the outline and scrolled down. Gradually became a little impatient, and was about to abandon the book, when he saw a line of words: In the sixth year of the Apocalypse, Emperor Wu took the "Ice Soul Dew" to give back to the Hu people.

His spirit was shaken. "Layman, look!" The voice was very excited, and he took the "Chronicle of the Apocalypse" to Prajnafutu.

After seeing the picture, he fell into a deep groan, and said after a while: "In the sixth year of the Apocalypse, the chaos in Shenzhou began to appear, and at that time, the Hu people were already anti-minded, and they frequently came to the court to do flattering things, in order to paralyze Emperor Wu. Emperor Wu didn't know what to do, and often gave back treasures, but he didn't expect that there would be ice soul dew among them. But now that the Hu tribe has been wiped out, and there is snow drifting on their land, where are they going to find this dew?"

Yan Li's heart immediately cooled, sat down dejectedly, and said: "I also heard that the northwest of Youzhou is covered with ice and snow, and there are no living creatures, and no living people can enter. ”

Pranyo Futu said with relief: "Yan Gongzi, don't be discouraged, there is a Ruizong Pavilion in Shangshutai, which is dedicated to displaying anthologies and archives about foreign races, and there may be clues." ”

Yan Li forced his spirit and said, "Let's go immediately in the next place." ”

He is no stranger to Shangshutai, he is familiar with the way, and the new Shangshu makes him even more familiar and unforgettable.

When Gu Shiyu greeted the guest hall, he was very surprised, with an intriguing smile on his face: "It turned out to be Little Brother Yan." "No student in the inner courtyard will be neglected, even if it is Shang Shuling, he will not put up a fight, maybe one day Yan Li's identity will be higher than him.

The bulging bag on his forehead was as ugly as stinky pus, and Yan Li had to have a lot of concentration to hold back the killing intent, and showed a slight smile: "Master Gu, don't come to harm." ”

"Don't dare, you are the future pillar of the imperial court. Gu Shiyu bowed his hand politely.

The two sat separately, and the attendants served tea as usual.

Gu Shiyu waited for Yan Li to drink before he said again: "Today, the magpie called the door, only to know that a distinguished guest was coming, I don't know why the little brother came to find the official?"

"That's the case, Mr. Xiao Boshu left us a question, about the Hu people, I want to find some information from Ruizong Pavilion, I don't know if I can borrow it?"

It turned out to be her, and it is rumored that Xiao Boshu is rigorous in his studies, and he is worthy of being the student she taught. That's easy to say. β€”β€”Come on, lead the way for Little Brother Yan. ”

Yan Li didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so he followed the attendant to the treasury.

Ruizong Pavilion is a special library of Shangshutai, as early as the Taizu had the practice of recording foreign races, but Emperor Wu set up a ruling department, and the investigation and research of foreign races was taken over by the ruling department, and then it was shelved, but the emperors of the past dynasties have not revoked Ruizong Pavilion, so it has been handed down.

There are not many old files in Ruizong Pavilion, they are all valuable documents, Yan Li only took two hours to read all the parts about the Hu people, but what disappointed him was that although these files recorded a lot of secrets of the Hu people, there was no clue about it.

He was about to leave when he saw something strange about the bookshelf near the window. He walked over, and by the afterglow of the sunset outside, he saw a book of different colors sandwiched between two old files. When I pulled it out and opened it, I found that the paper was not from the same period as other old files. However, all that was written was some trivial matters of Shangshutai. Many of the inscriptions are named Ye Shitian, which seems to be Ye Shitian's things.

Why did Ye Shitian sandwich such a document recording trivial matters in the old file?

Suddenly, a line of words attracted all his attention: In August of the first year of Emperor Qi, the general Wu Shaofeng and his subordinates rebelled, and the martial god Wang Ba personally killed the rebels, a total of 231 people, and Wu Shaofeng escaped without a trace.

Two hundred and thirty-one!

At this moment, the blood in Yan Li's whole body rushed straight to his brain, clenched his fists, and made a crisp sound of "crackling". This number happens to be the number of thieves who slaughtered Swallow Dock. A strong intuition told him that Wang Ba was inseparable from the Yanziwu massacre.

Yanshan thieves have been investigating the Yanziwu case for so many years, and finally found a clue, but it was at this critical juncture.

He thought about it, tore off the page and hid it in his arms, put the document back in order, and went back to the academy.

Failing to find the clues of the dew made Yan Li physically and mentally exhausted, pushed open the door, and Leng Buding was pounced on by a petite figure.

"Master, Fu'er is back. ”

The nose was full of the youthful vigor of a little girl, Yan Li pressed her head and pushed it away, and said, "You are very in the way!"

Fu'er seemed to be sticky, "woo" refused to let go, and pouted: "Fu'er is so cute, the owner can't bear to push it away, people are going to be angry, hum!"

Yan Li sighed: "You get off me first." ”

"No!" said Fu'er, smugly.

"I'm annoyed right now, you come down for me. Yan Li's face sank.

Fu'er was startled, once Yan Li's mood and anger changed, it must have encountered a big problem, so he couldn't control his temper. Hurriedly and obediently let go, and said tentatively: "Master, what's wrong......

Immediately snorted the little tiger teeth: "Hmph, is someone taking advantage of my absence to bully the master?" The master quickly tells Fu'er who it is, and Fu'er is looking for him to be angry for you. ”

Yan Li couldn't help crying and laughing, and said, "What is the use of you going to the person who can bully me?"

"You can't say that. Fu'er pouted and said, "People are very smart, but they can't outwit them." By the way, master, I just met a masked woman, and somehow said that she had a clue to the dew......"

"What did you say?" Yan Li's eyes widened, pressed Fu'er's shoulder, and shook violently, "You say it again!"

"It hurts, it hurts......" Fu'er said with tears in her eyes.

Yan Li hurriedly let her go and adjusted her breathing before asking, "What's the matter?"

She said that her young lady wanted to see the master, in Caiyunfang. ”
