Chapter 128: Sinking Fish
Zhang Xiaobei walked into the bronze coffin and slowly turned the bronze turntable on the side of the coffin.
The lid of the coffin was slowly opened, and a refreshing fragrance came to the nostrils.
Why is there such an intoxicating fragrance in the coffin?
He remembered that when he buried his body, he had never put incense jade, incense stone, incense wood and other funeral objects that would produce aroma in any coffin.
This fragrance created out of thin air was either added by later generations or refined by this corpse coffin.
Zhang Xiaobei glanced back, the movable door behind him did not open again, and he was the only one in the huge exhibition hall. There are very few people who could have a Fosa membership card, and even fewer people who can have a green card, even if there are only a few people who have a Fosa green card in the entire Lanchuan Island. Therefore, the exhibition area on the 18th floor is unlikely to become a lively place like a market.
After Zhang Xiaobei confirmed that there was no one around, he bit the finger of his right hand and squeezed out a drop of blood into the coffin.
He couldn't wait to find out who was sleeping in the coffin.
Like the previous two corpse refining coffins that were dug up, after the blood entered the coffin, a piece of white gas immediately gushed out of the coffin, and the white gas instantly swallowed Zhang Xiaobei's whole person.
A blanket of white ground appeared in front of me.
There is no scenery and no noise.
Zhang Xiaobei finally came to the place of rebirth again.
He looked around and saw no one, the horizon seemed to be far away from him and seemed to be very close.
"Why do I have such a scent? An indifferent voice suddenly came from an unknown distance.
Zhang Xiaobei turned around and saw a woman in a long white dress standing not far from him.
The beauty of the woman in white is not inferior to Wang Zhaojun, but her expression is extremely indifferent, like a piece of ice that has been around for thousands of years, and people dare not touch it.
He once painted a portrait of her in the Eastern Jin Dynasty with his memory, named "Xi Shi", the world sighed, Xi Shi really looks like a fairy in the painting? But not many people believed him at that time, only said that he was only tired of painting, groundless. He didn't argue, and immediately tore the painting off, saying, I'm sorry, I still painted Xi Shi ugly.
The pen of painters in the poor world throughout the ages cannot paint the beauty of Xi Shi.
That's right, the woman in white with a strange fragrance in front of her is Xi Shi, Shi Yiguang.
"Sinking fish and falling geese", "falling geese" refers to Wang Zhaojun, and "sinking fish" refers to Xi Shi.
Xi Shi is a Huansha girl, formerly known as Shi Yiguang, Ramie Shijia Village is divided into East and West two villages by Huansha Creek passing through the village, Shi Yiguang was born in West Village, so the name is Xi Shi.
It is rumored that one day when Xi Shi was in the river, the clear river water reflected her appearance, and the fish in the river could see her face clearly through the clear water, so they were attracted by her appearance, forgot to swim, and gradually sank to the bottom of the river.
This is the origin of the saying "sinking fish".
The small Shijia Village didn't seem to be able to hide Xi Shi's overly outstanding beauty, she was soon brought into the Yue court, Yue Wang Gou Jian ordered the musician to teach her to sing and dance, ordered the concubines in the palace to teach her manners, and ordered the Fengchen woman to teach her how to use beauty to confuse men. After three years of training like this, Gou Jian asked Fan Li to dedicate Xi Shi to Wu Wangfucha.
If a woman is born with stunning looks and has learned the art of charm and charm, what man will not be charmed by it.
The husband didn't listen to Wu Zixu's advice and immediately took Xi Shi down, built the Spring Festival Palace for her in Gusutai, built the Guanwa Palace for her on Lingyan Mountain, and built a large pool for her to play.
Because of her, the government was defeated, the treasury was empty, and he embarked on the road of exile step by step.
When Gou Jian's army invaded the capital of Wu and broke through the court of Wu, Zhang Xiaobei at that time had already mixed with the status of a general in Yue and changed his name to Zhang Yingwu.
It was at the court of Wu that Zhang Xiaobei first met Xi Shi, and another order he received at that time was to bring Xi Shi back to the Yue Palace safely.
The result of Xi Shi has always been a mystery in Chinese history, even Zhang Xiaobei, who has traveled through the past from modern times, does not know how Xi Shi ended, but even if he knows that there are banyan seeds to remind and supervise all the time, he can't change anything.
Less than three days after Xi Shi returned to the Yue court, it seemed to evaporate from the world, and there was no news around, and Zhang Xiaobeituo couldn't get any news of Xi Shi when he inquired about it, even if someone knew about it, he didn't dare to say it.
There is a speculation about the ending of Xi Shi in the present world, that is, she ended up living incognito in the mountains and forests with Fan Li. But now Fan Li is still in the palace, but Xi Shi has disappeared.
Zhang Xiaobei thought of another possible ending for Xi Shi. He ordered all the soldiers in his house to search all the lakes and rivers near Yuedu, and finally fished up Xi Shi's body in Zimian Lake on the outskirts of the city two days later.
At this time, Xi Shi, who appeared in the place of rebirth, brought an indifferent expression that he had never seen before, and it was probably her tragic ending that smeared a layer of ice on her heart, making her expression as cold as her heart.
"I think I've seen you. Xi Shi said slowly, indifferent.
"We shouldn't have seen it. Zhang Xiaobei said with a smile. At that time, when he appeared in front of her as Zhang Yingwu, he was disguised, not the young appearance he is now.
If it weren't for the banyan tree seed to teach him the art of transfiguration, it would be difficult for him to be active in various dynasties like a fish in water. His identity as Zhang Yingwu was immediately abandoned by him after the fall of the Yue Kingdom, changed his name to Zhang Shuai, switched to the Qin army, and finally mixed into the position of general.
Zhang Xiaobei didn't want Xi Shi to know that he was Zhang Yingwu, so as not to bring back her sad memories of the past.
"Is this hell?" said Shih Tzu, looking around, "Hell is the endless void. ”
"This is not hell, this is a place of rebirth, a place where you can be reborn. Zhang Xiaobei said.
"What is rebirth?"
"It's to get you out of this white land, so that you can revisit the sunshine and appreciate the change of the seasons. In short, you can come back from the dead once and for all, and be reborn. Zhang Xiaobei said. It took a lot of words to persuade Xiang Yu to be reborn before, and it is estimated that it will take a lot of effort to make Xi Shi reborn this time.
"I'd rather stay in hell than come back. ”
After Xi Shi finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the endless white land in the distance.
Sure enough, it takes a bit of a tongue.
Zhang Xiaobei immediately caught up with her and wanted to continue to persuade her.
But as soon as he took a step, he felt that he was taken away from the white ground by some external force, and everything in front of him was immediately disillusioned, the place of rebirth disappeared, and Xi Shi's back also disappeared.
Voices from beyond the rebirth could begin to be heard in his ears.
"Brother Tian, my electric shock stick is turned on to the maximum power, and I can't beat this kid. ”
"Plus my stick!"
As soon as Zhang Xiaobei left the white ground, his whole body was shocked by a huge electric shock, and he fell to the ground unexpectedly. The blow to his mental power was too great, and he slowly began to lose consciousness.
