32.Chapter 32
Before the boat docked, Ling Chusi also deliberately went to Gao Lao Dao to say goodbye, and then went ashore gracefully.
A few days ago, it happened that Emperor Yang Guang of Sui and his cronies and officials from the DPRK and China went to Jiangdu County in person.
Ling Chusi had been on the ship before, so naturally he didn't know the news. After arriving in Jiangdu Town, I found an inn to go into, and when I was going to sit at the table and eat something before going back to my room to rest, I only found out when I heard the people next to me whispering about the matter.
However, when Ling Chusi looked through the history books, he also knew that Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of Sui, was not the kind of emperor who stayed in the capital for many years, whether it was going south to check the construction of the canal or the northern expedition to Gaojuli, for him, traveling back and forth was not a matter of one or two times.
Early the next morning, Ling Chusi slept in the inn and woke up.
She wandered around Jiangdu County a little aimlessly, now it is late autumn, the leaves are fluttering, seeing that it will not be long before the New Year is approaching, before going to the north to find Sun Simiao but all the way to the air, Ling Chusi inevitably pondered his next itinerary, considering whether to take advantage of the New Year to go to Sun Simiao's hometown again, maybe the medical saint Sun Simiao's grandfather will also go home for the New Year after a year of travel!
On the bluestone paved path, even in autumn, it seems to have a little hazy water vapor, and the maple on the bank of the river is as red as fire, as bright as the sunset.
Ling Chusi was wearing a white dress, which was also decorated with some silver trim patterns, the fabric was delicate and gorgeous, she was still standing on the river bank, but she suddenly felt that there was a stunning gaze approaching her like substance.
Ling Chusi raised his head suddenly, on the deck of a giant ship that was still hanging the flag of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, Emperor Yang of Sui and his entourage were boarding the ship and looking into the distance.
Almost all the people on the shore knelt down the mountain and shouted long live, Ling Chusi's heart moved slightly, and he disappeared directly from the crowd, hiding in a remote corner, looking up slightly, but he just happened to be in touch with a white-haired old man beside Emperor Yang Guang of Sui.
Ling Chusi raised her eyebrows slightly, at first, there was still a look of surprise and confusion on her face, however, when she really met the pair of cold and bottomless eyes, even if it was a completely unfamiliar old man's face, Ling Chusi still recognized a strange sense of familiarity from these eyes.
After being slightly stunned for a moment, Ling Chusi suddenly opened his mouth and whispered to himself, "Shi Zhixuan......?" ”
At the same time, Yi Rong changed his disguise and followed the side of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, and Shi Zhixuan, who was incarnated as an important minister Pei Ju, also muttered softly with a bit of coldness in his mouth: "Ling, Chu, Si!" ”
In this situation, the words "the road is narrow" can be said to be the best interpretation of the relationship between the two of them.
It's just that Shi Zhixuan was still holding the identity of Pei Ju at this time, accompanying Emperor Yang Guang of Sui. If he didn't want to expose his identity as a top master in the rivers and lakes and arouse Yang Guang's suspicion and jealousy, he would naturally not be able to make a move against Ling Chusi at this time.
Ling Chusi was the same, unless she wanted to make a move with Shi Zhixuan in front of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, and then provoke the wanted arrest of the imperial court, otherwise, she would definitely not be able to offend the Holy Driver because of the conflict with Shi Zhixuan.
The two of them had their own concerns, and for a while, one was on the shore and the other was on the deck of the ship, looking at each other from a distance, both looking at each other with a sharp line of sight.
After a while, Ling Chusi sneered slightly in the direction of Shi Zhixuan, hooked the corners of his mouth, and immediately turned to leave.
Shi Zhixuan couldn't help but clench his fists, and slowly traced the three words "Ling Chusi" in his heart, simply deep in his heart with this majestic hostility and killing intent.
After Ling Chusi left, he secretly pondered for a while, and did not leave Jiangdu County in a hurry as Shi Zhixuan guessed, but casually found a local official in Jiangdu Town, and quietly went directly into someone's bedroom, waiting for the official to return home physically and mentally exhausted after receiving Emperor Yang Guang of Sui in the evening, and then came out of the shadows, stood silently behind the official, and gently raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.
The officer stood there, his body stiffened, his pupils constricted sharply, and he almost fainted with fright.
Ling Chusi asked unhurriedly, "Who is the white-haired old man standing beside His Majesty on the deck of the giant ship in the middle of the river today?" ”
The official's lips trembled, and he was about to shout out loud, but a cold thing in Ling Chusi's hand was already against his neck, and he smiled slightly: "I don't want to hurt anyone, I just want the identity of that person, and I hope Your Excellency will cooperate." ”
The official trembled, slowly, but slowly calmed down under Ling Chusi's abduction, he breathed violently for a long time, and finally replied with difficulty: "The old man with gorgeous hair beside His Majesty is Master Pei Jupei. ”
He made "Atlas of the Western Regions" by himself, and he can be called the Pei Ju who played with the Western Regions in the palm of his hand?
Hearing this, it was Ling Chusi, and he couldn't help but be slightly moved.
"Big, hero?" The officer asked tentatively as he felt a bit of chill on his neck, and his lips trembled a little.
Ling Chusi sighed silently in his heart, and immediately changed to a hand that did not hold the dagger with a slight force, and after mad the two acupoints behind the official, making people faint silently, he turned around and quietly left in the deep night.
As the leader of the Demon Gate Flower Sect, Shi Zhixuan, who took half of the power of the Mending Heaven Pavilion and was also known as the "Evil King", even incarnated Pei Ju in the imperial court who was born in the western family of the Pei family in Hedong......
Ling Chusi carefully recalled the time when Pei Ju wrote the three volumes of "Atlas of the Western Regions" in history, and it was vaguely able to match the time when Shi Zhixuan disappeared in the rivers and lakes several times and was thought to be concentrating on retreat and martial arts. There is also Pei Ju's own experience of going to the Western Regions several times, which was not obvious when he had never noticed it before, but now it seems that it corresponds to the experience of Shi Zhixuan, the equally mysterious "evil king" in the rivers and lakes, who rarely haunts people.
Thinking of this, it was Ling Chusi, and he couldn't help but have a slightly moved look on his face.
Even if he was an enemy from the beginning, even Ling Chusi still couldn't change his mind that Shi Zhixuan was a psychopath, but considering Pei Ju's life experience, and then fusing it with Shi Zhixuan's experience, Rao is Ling Chusi, and he had to praise Shi Zhixuan's talent!
The only pity is that the talented one has become a neuropath......
Ling Chusi muttered with some regret in his heart.
After getting the identity of Shi Zhixuan's incarnation, because Emperor Yang Guang of Sui and his entourage had to stay in Jiangdu County for a few more days, they didn't want to face Shi Zhixuan, who might go crazy at any time, and was likely to use the government to make trouble for themselves, or Ling Chusi of Pei Ju, so he naturally avoided it without hesitation.
After carefully pondering the possible whereabouts of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty next, Ling Chu thought about leaving Jiangdu County early in the morning, and in order to seek peace of mind, even several nearby cities and counties where Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty might come to stay at any time, Ling Chusi avoided them one by one.
At this time, Pei Ju, who was still by the side of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, naturally did not act as freely as the "evil king" Shi Zhixuan, seeing that Ling Chusi directly chose to avoid his edge because of the imperial court, it was Shi Zhixuan, and he was helpless. Emperor Yang of Sui was next to him, so he naturally couldn't leave by himself, and at this time, as an important minister of the imperial court, he couldn't order Ling Chusi to be arrested for no reason.
Ling Chusi and Shi Zhixuan's coincidental encounter with Duan Zai this time, under the calm containment of both sides, the surface passed peacefully, but as for the turbulent dark tide of internal forces, it was a matter of the future.
In the blink of an eye, it was November, the late autumn wind was cold, the maple leaves on the river bank had fallen, and in the morning, the ground with some grass and trees in the courtyard was also covered with a thin layer of silver frost.
Just when Ling Chusi began to plan whether he would go back to Qinling Qingyan Wanhua Valley first and come out after the New Year, he went north to Zhuo County to find Ling Chusi but was in vain, and then followed Ling Chusi's footsteps to go south by boat, and the whole journey crossed most of Ji Xiaobai of the Sui Dynasty, and finally met Ling Chusi again after a lot of hardships.
"Ah Ling!" Ji Xiaobai just saw the white delicate figure of a little girl from a distance in the market, so he shouted directly in public.
Ling Chusi stopped in slight surprise and looked back when he heard the sound.
===== is still a small tail away, and it will be done in ten minutes
