(Ask for collection and recommendation)

Hu Guiyang and the others came with questions, but the predecessor calmed down Zhu Heng with more questions than them, closed the door, and pointed to the small wooden box, "Why did you take it out?" What do you know? Who told you that? What exactly is your purpose? ”

"Don't worry, answer one by one, you tell me first, how did you get this box of Nansi?" Hu Guiyang asked with a smile.

Yuan Mao and Fan Dajian finally believed that this small wooden box was very important, and stood behind Hu Guiyang, with serious expressions, silently cheering for him.

Zhu Heng, who was much older than the three of them, did not answer the question, but walked to the door, pushed open a gap, and glanced out, "I have nothing to say, you guys go, if you really want to know the truth, bring the holy decree." I am an official of the imperial court, and I have no personal friendship and do not talk nonsense. ”

"It's a 'no selfish relationship, no talking'." Hu Guiyang praised, but the person didn't move, "Isn't the guest Lord Zhu waiting for tonight a personal friend?" ”

Zhu Heng opened the door quickly just now, and there were no servants left in the house, obviously waiting for someone, he neither admitted nor denied it, and still made a posture of sending off guests, "I am the outgoing official, you are the new captain, there is neither a holy decree nor a summons to arrest people, so you are not qualified to ask me this." ”

Hu Guiyang still didn't move, thought for a while, and carefully took out a fold from his arms, "Is this okay?" ”

Yuan Mao, who was behind him, had sharp eyes, and immediately stepped forward to take the fold and held it in front of Zhu Heng with both hands.

Zhu Hengda was taken aback, recognized that this was the Jinyi Wei driving sticker, took it with both hands, opened it and looked at it, and said confusedly: "Your driving sticker ......"

"Anything and anyone can check it, and it can be filed afterwards." Hu Guiyang said proudly that this is the driving sticker he asked for from Wang Zhi earlier, and he had asked the third sister He to keep it temporarily, and he had to come back before entering the palace, and it finally came in handy today.

Zhu Heng's face changed back and forth, and he returned the driving sticker to Yuan Mao, "You only ask about the origin of the receiver?" ”

"Hmm." Hu Guiyang carefully put away the driving sticker.

"It was left behind by Taizu."

"So early? No wonder I can't find the paperwork. Fan Dajian suddenly realized, in fact, he only turned over a few pieces of paper.

"The paperwork is long gone, but there is a "Collection of Demon Books", which mentions it."

"The Collection of Demon Books?" Hu Guiyang had never heard of this book.

Zhu Heng explained: "There are often demon books circulating among the people, confusing the public with demon letters, and after the government collects them, they are burned as usual, but Nansi sometimes collects a part, and the more they accumulate, the more they accumulate, so they compile a book and name it "Demon Book Collection". ”

"I haven't seen it in the E-room." Hu Guiyang said.

"Since it is a demon book, how can it be easily passed on? But I can't reveal where it's hidden, you'll have to ask the current governor, it's the rule. ”

"What does the demon book say about this receiver?"

"Hmm...... It is to the effect that when Taizu was at his most depressed, an immortal appeared and showed him the wonderful immortal arts, and the instrument used was this machine box. It is recorded in the book that this box is called 'Lingyi', the clever spirit, the ethereal one, can sacrifice two fairy swords, take people's heads thousands of miles away, and have secretly made many military exploits for Taizu. After Taizu ascended the throne, the Lingyi Twin Swords suddenly flew out of the box one night, turned into two white lights, and flew to the southwest, never returned, and his whereabouts are unknown, and the corner of the receiver was damaged. Taizu had sent people to look for him many times, but he found nothing, and he was often uneasy in his heart, thinking that if the two swords were transferred to others, it would be a great threat. That's probably it. ”

Hu Guiyang laughed, "It's worthy of being recorded in the demon book, it's really demonic." Fan Dajian, have you heard this story? ”

Fan Dajian hurriedly shook his head, "No, I never read demon books." ”

"If this box is so important, why is it placed in the corner of your room?" Hu Guiyang asked.

Zhu Heng's face changed slightly, closed the slightly open door, and then said: "This box has been lent out, but as a result, the people it carries are not allowed to die well, and it often causes great disasters. The most recent time was during the Tianshun period, the eunuch Cao Jixiang once lent this box, but the rebellion failed, but was beheaded by the whole house. Successive calming and soothing rings, this box is ominous, but it is a relic of Taizu and cannot be destroyed, so it is deliberately placed in his own room at will, thinking that it will not receive attention. ”

Hu Guiyang was still holding the receiver, but Yuan Mao and Fan Dajian both changed their faces and quietly took two steps out of the way.

Hu Guiyang put away the receiver, "Understood, thank you Lord Zhu for your doubts." ”

"Alright, let's go, it's not convenient for me to receive guests now."

"You just said that the previous governors were pretended, but you didn't warn the current ones, did you?"

Liang Xiu obviously didn't know the importance of this box, and didn't even notice that it was missing.

"Hey, I want to say, the current adult wants to hear it." Zhu Heng became even more impatient, "That's it, I told you everything you want to know." ”

"Wait, what a million, that is, the former Liang Tiegong."

"That's a liar, Nansi handed him over to Dongchang soon after he was arrested, you can ask them about the specific matter."

"Didn't Liang Tiegong have an accomplice when he was arrested?"

"The person was arrested by Zhao Ying, and it was not handed over to Nansi at that time, so you don't have to ask me." Zhu Heng pushed open the door and was about to push the guest out.

Hu Guiyang arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Master Zhu, when you are free, let's have a drink together." ”

"Well, okay, wait for Captain Hu to go to Jiangnan on business, or I'll go back to the capital." Zhu Heng said perfunctorily, watching the three of them walk out of the room, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The lanterns in front of the shops are still on, but there are not many pedestrians on the streets.

"Will Zhu Zhenfu tell the truth?" Yuan Mao asked suspiciously.

"The demon book is the demon book, what is said is absurd, and Nansi takes it seriously." Fan Dajian said.

"Let's find a place to stay first, and go back to Beijing early tomorrow morning." Hu Guiyang looked left and right, pointing to an inn not far away.

"It's better to stay here and not have to leave." Fan Dajian made a suggestion.

Hu Guiyang didn't accept it and strode to another house.

The guest room is very small, and the guys send the guests in and leave, and they neither offend nor stammer the people dressed in brocade clothes, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

"The three of us live in one room?" Fan Dajian looked at you in surprise, "I know you are poor, but don't Nansi and Xichang provide funds?" ”

"It's not three people, one person lives here, and the other two go to spy on Zhu Heng." Hu Guiyang said.

"Oh, that's right, Zhu Heng is obviously waiting for someone, he is a retired repression, and he came to Zhangjiawan again, the person he is waiting for must be strange...... Who's going to spend? Fan Dajian looked at Hu Guiyang, who was walking to the bed.

Hu Guiyang yawned, "You two in the first half of the night, I in the second half of the night, and someone came back at the third watch to wake me up." ”

"I'm ...... in this robe"

Yuan Mao dragged Fan Dajian out, "I asked you to replace it earlier, you don't agree, let's go." ”

When he got outside, Fan Dajian complained: "Zhu Heng and the others will arrive soon, and there is no need to monitor the second half of the night." ”

Yuan Mao said coldly: "So what? Who is in charge of the three of us? ”

Fan Dajian whispered: "I didn't say I wouldn't go. Alas, I think about how majestic I was in Lingji Palace, it is not an exaggeration to say that I am in front of the back, holding the power of life and death, in a word, dozens of Taoist priests can be sent to death......"

In the guest room, Hu Guiyang blew out the oil lamp, took off his boots, went to bed and lay down, and before he could think carefully about what Zhu Heng had said, he had already fallen asleep.

He had always hoped to have a complete dream and recall all the past events, but he couldn't, either he didn't dream, or he had unrelated dreams, or it was the same scene: he was standing on the peak of the god and heard the people behind him keep saying "hold on......

Hu Guiyang sat up all of a sudden, looking at Yuan Mao with sleepy eyes, "So fast? ”

"It's been three shifts." Yuan Mao whispered.

"Oh." Hu Guiyang felt that he had just fallen asleep, "Zhu Heng has seen the guests?" ”

"No, he's going to kill himself."

Hu Guiyang suddenly sobered up and stood up barefoot, "What? ”

"Zhu Heng just left the inn, didn't bring anything, and went to the river alone, looking like he was going to jump into the river."

Hu Guiyang put on his boots a few times and asked as he walked: "How do you know that he has the intention to die?" ”

"I went into the house and peeked at the letter he left, it was a suicide note, and the family property was distributed."

The two quietly walked out of the store, ran along the street, and as soon as they got out of the street, they heard someone shouting in front of them: "Wait and jump again......"

Fan Dajian stood in the grass on the side of the road, waving his arms and shouting.

The two quickened their pace, Hu Guiyang took a step first, looked down, and saw that Zhu Heng had already walked into the river, turned around and said angrily: "It's you again, who told you to be nosy?" ”

Fan Dajian persuaded: "It's better to die than to live, you also have a family, a job, a wife and children, but you just lost your office, why do you want to die?" If you want to die, don't die here, at least go back to your hometown first, otherwise your family will have to ask someone to salvage the body and bring it back to Jiangnan with all the hard work. How much savings do you have? Is it enough to transport corpses? ”

Zhu Heng was stunned, he had arranged the funeral, but he didn't think of the section of transporting the corpse back to his hometown, "I, if I live, my family will be even more affected......"

"How so? Look, Captain Hu is here, he is not simple, he is in the Nansi, but he is not under the control of the Nansi, he directly listens to the orders of Wang Zhi of the West Factory, and secretly does things for the emperor, do you say it is powerful? If you have a grievance, just tell him, and he will make the decision for you. ”

Hu Guiyang blushed a little when he heard this.

Zhu Heng in the river said: "Grievances? I have no grievances, I ......"

Zhu Heng turned around and walked towards the depths of the river again.

Fan Dajian had no choice but to look at Hu Guiyang.

"There is a reason why Huang Ci didn't send people." Hu Guiyang said loudly.

Zhu Heng turned around again, "You, how do you know ......?"

"Of course I know, I know everything." Hu Guiyang actually didn't know anything, he could only think of what to say, according to rumors, Zhu Heng was the confidant of the eunuch Huang Ci, and the people he was waiting for had something to do with it, "It's a shot over there, it's about to make a comeback, a new demon fox, a new killing is about to begin, even if you throw yourself into the river, you can't dodge, the crime will still fall on your family, it's better to go ashore, and there is a chance to atone for your sins......"

Fan Dajian and Yuan Mao were dumbfounded when they heard this, and Zhu Heng in the river was even more surprised, finally, he walked towards the riverbank, and after stepping on the ground, he said: "I introduced the immortals to Eunuch Huang, but I really didn't know that the immortals actually ......."

Hu Guiyang nodded, "I understand, it's not your fault, now the plan is to find the 'immortal' first to stop him from conspiring again." ”

Zhu Heng suddenly became manic, "Impossible, how can mortals fight with immortals?" The Daming Dynasty was given by the gods, and now the gods are going to take it back, and no one can stop it......"

Zhu Heng turned around and jumped, but still jumped into the river.
