Verse 59: Worship the virtuous
Xi Zhicai did not appear in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but there was a short record in Chen Shou's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
Although the record is short, it is highly praised.
Xi Zhicai died early, Cao Cao once said to Xun Yu: "Since Zhicai's death, there is no way to be with the planner!" It can be seen that Cao Cao's evaluation of the ability of drama Zhicai.
However, Guan Yan only had a slight impression of Xi Zhicai, and he didn't understand that the sick middle-aged man in front of him was a genius!
Guan Yan's face changed slightly, and he returned to normal: "Mr. Xi, look at it." ”
As he spoke, Guan Yan walked up to Xi Zhicai and stretched out his two fingers to the teacup on the table. Then Guan Yan closed his eyes and concentrated, and a trace of his true qi swam to his fingertips.
There are some fine lines on the surface of the tea, and the fine lines slowly become larger and more intense.
Finally, a trace of tea was pulled out of the teacup like a thin thread, and slowly multiple strands of tea converged into a strand, gurgling with the movement of Guan Yan's fingers.
Some time ago, Guan Yan once performed this part for Chen Deng, and at that time, Chen Deng was sleepy-eyed, and he thought that Guan Yan was using some small skills, so he didn't pay attention to it. Now that he really watched Guan Yankong magically control that flowing water, he couldn't help but feel amazed.
Xi Zhicai was stunned and looked at the snake-like flowing water, and after a while, he asked softly, "What do you mean by ......?"
"I can drive water and purify my lungs! However, I have never used this method before, if Mr. Xi is not afraid, I can try it" Guan Yan put away his fingertips and said to Xi Zhicai.
Xi Zhi thought for a moment, and his cloudy eyes slowly became resolute: "Death horizontally and vertically, annoying adults." ”
Guan Yan nodded: "Without further ado, let's prepare quickly." ”
The preparation is very simple, the main thing is to boil a pot for sterilization and dry the warm water. A large empty basin was prepared and set aside.
Xi Zhicai was lying on the bed, Guan Yan sat on the side, and asked softly, "Mr. Xi is ready?" ”
Xi Zhicai nodded, closed his eyes slightly, and opened his mouth.
Guan Yan condensed his breath on his fingertips again, and a thin stream gradually formed on the warm water in the basin, slowly swimming towards Xi Zhicai's mouth.
Water enters through the mouth and slowly flows along the trachea towards Xi Zhicai's lungs.
Guan Yan carefully controlled the flow of water, if there was a mistake, this flow of water would fall into Xi Zhicai's lungs, I am afraid it would make matters worse, and Xi Zhicai's life would not be long!
After a stick of incense, a circle of water flowed out of Xi Zhicai's mouth again, the water was stained yellow, and there were traces of blood. The flow of water fell into the empty basin with Guan Yan's control.
Looking at the color and impurities of the water, Chen Deng and Lao Fan couldn't help but gasp on the side.
Guan Yan gasped for a moment on the side, wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and held his breath, and a stream of clear water slowly flowed into Xi Zhicai's mouth again......
This has been repeated dozens of times, and the clear water flowing from Xi Zhicai's mouth has slowly become clear.
Until the last stream fell into the basin on the side, Guan Yan let out a long breath, the strings in his brain loosened, and Guan Yan collapsed backwards.
Chen Deng hurriedly put his hand on Guan Yan's back and wiped the sweat on Guan Yan's head with his big sleeve: "Is the lord okay?" ”
Guan Yan didn't speak, just frowned and closed his eyes.
After a while, Guan Yan reluctantly sat up, and said weakly: "It's okay, it's just too tired." ”
Guan Yan looked at the sleeping Xi Zhicai on the bed, and then looked at the basin of water on the side that was rusty and sunk. Guan Yan said softly to Lao Fan: "The rust has been removed, Mr. Xi should be fine." I'll wait for tomorrow to have something important, so I'll take my leave! ”
After saying that, Guan Yan slowly stood up with Chen Deng's support.
Lao Fan looked at Xi Zhicai, and said anxiously to Guan Yan: "My lord is very kind to my master, why don't you rest here for one night and leave tomorrow?" ”
"No, no, no." Guan Yan waved his hand: "Farewell!" ”
Guan Yan slowly walked out of the theater with Chen Deng's support and walked towards the camp.
Maybe Guan Yan was too tired last night, so he fell asleep after returning to the big tent.
The next day, when the sun was over, Guan Yan opened his eyes with soreness.
Guan Yan sat up and leaned on the bed, and there were bursts of whispering from outside the tent from time to time.
Guan Yan lazily closed his eyes and asked in a raised voice, "Who is outside the tent?" ”
When the people outside the tent heard the sound, they hurriedly opened the curtain and walked in, and asked with concern, "Is the lord awake?" ”
Guan Yan squinted and saw that it was Chen Deng. Guan Yan closed his eyes again and asked, "It's Yuanlong, Fang is talking to Lao Zhou outside?" ”
Chen Deng smiled: "No, please take a look." ”
Saying that, Chen Deng turned around and opened the curtain of the tent, bowed in alone, stood in front of Guan Yan with a smile on his face, and said deeply: "Thank you, my lord, for saving your life!" ”
I saw that this person was pale, with three strands of beard floating under his chin, and he was dressed in a literati outfit, wasn't it the same Xi Zhicai who was treated yesterday?
Guan Yan saw it, sat up hurriedly, dragged Xi Zhicai's left arm slightly with his right hand, and said, "Sir, why do you have to do this, please get up, please get up." ”
Xi Zhicai straightened up, and Guan Yan found that although Xi Zhicai was still pale, he was no longer sick, and even his breath was much more stable.
"Zhicai's life is saved by adults, and the gentleman should repay his kindness!" Xi Zhicai looked at Guan Yan's eyes and said sincerely: "Zhicai's art of war is a little bit clear, if the lord does not give up, he is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses!" As he spoke, Xi Zhicai bowed down again.
"This ......" A person suddenly came to join him, Guan Yan was really a little uncomfortable, and he was stunned for a while.
Chen Deng thought that Guan Yan had any concerns, so he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The lord is thirsty for talent, the day before yesterday he wanted to seek talent in Yingchuan, and now that the talent is here, why doesn't the lord treat him politely?" ”
"Oh?" When he heard that he was a great talent, Guan Yan was a little excited, and when he was excited, this body was even more disobedient.
Chen Deng was anxious, thinking that Guan Yan was still unmoved, so he hurriedly said: "Between the words, Mr. Xi's talent is ten times better, if Mr. Xi helps, the lord is like a tiger with wings!" ”
Chen Dengdu said this, Guan Yan came to his senses, and hurriedly helped up Xi Zhicai: "Mr. Xi is a great talent!" Forgive Yan for being clumsy and didn't ask for it! ”
After Guan Yan finished speaking, he made a big salute to Xi Zhicai.
Xi Zhicai hurriedly lifted his robe and knelt down and saluted: "Xi Zhicai sees the lord!" ”
