Kang Renjie wiped his sweat briefly, casually put on a piece of clothing and walked out, at the door of the inn, several women surrounded there and pointed to a bald handsome guy who was snickering. In the crowd, the man who did not look like a monk was about thirty years old, standing with a long body, with his palms on his chest, his skin was as white as jade, and his starry eyebrows were bright, and he was as beautiful, quiet and elegant as a noble beauty.

Seeing Zhang Jiao, Kang Renjie and others walking out of the inn, the man politely bent down to the onlookers and saluted, walked up quickly, and saluted Kang Renjie from a distance: "Kang Gui is well!" Under Abe Qingming, I came to meet with Kang Gui. ”

Kang Renjie frowned, this man with an elegant temperament and a beautiful personality who spoke Chinese so fluently, is he really Japanese?

Seeing that Kang Renjie didn't speak, Abe Qingming smiled and said lightly: "Kang Gui doesn't have to be confused, the little monk has admired Middle-earth culture since he was a child, and specially invited a Chinese teacher to read Chinese classics diligently, and he knows a little bit about Middle-earth culture." Yesterday, with the consent of the Japanese emperor, the little monk will accompany Kang Gui and Zhang Gui to return to the Tang Dynasty and once again appreciate the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. ”

When mentioning "Zhang Guizhi", Abe Qingming politely smiled at Zhang Jiao next to him, and the smile was as bright as sunshine, which suddenly made Zhang Jiao's face red.

Kang Renjie was still immersed in the words "with the consent of the emperor", but in a blink of an eye, he saw Zhang Jiao with a flush on her fair-skinned neck, and a wave of annoyance surged in his heart, and he stared at Abe Qingming's handsome face with a little hatred.

Abe Qingming still had a harmless smile on his face, and saluted with his palms: "The little monk is originally an unknown astronomical student, equivalent to a monk in Middle-earth. After receiving the emperor's decree, the little monk immediately shaved his ordination last night and officially became a monk, and will go to the Tang Dynasty to study hard, and will abide by all the monk's precepts during the Tang Dynasty. ”

Hearing this, Kang Renjie casually glanced at Zhang Jiao next to him, and his rapidly beating heart finally reflected a fact: this beautiful monk will return to Datang with him on the order of the emperor, Kang Renjie immediately asked: "Can you please explain in detail, how does your country respond to the business and trade with my Datang?" ”

Abe Harumi immediately bowed down and replied: "After a few days of court discussions, the emperor has decided that the little monk will go to Datang to observe and study on behalf of Japan, and then make a court decision based on the observations." ”

Kang Renjie was stunned, what does this mean, how can I explain to Master Lin when I go back like this?

Abe Qingming did not raise his eyebrows, and said softly: "Don't worry, your envoy!" The Emperor has already stated that the goods brought by your envoy will be purchased at a high price; This time, the envoys of the Tang Dynasty came from thousands of miles away, and our dynasty will return the corresponding valuable gifts to the Tang Dynasty and the noble envoys; In addition, 10,000 taels of silver were issued as an expense during the study period of the monk. ”

These conditions are not bad, and they are not considered to be empty-handed! Kang Renjie nodded subconsciously, but suddenly realized that this Japanese monk seemed to be too smart, how could he think of his psychological reaction in an instant? Turning around and looking up at Zhang Jiao, who looked up at Abe Qingming from time to time, he was suddenly wary of this polite Japanese monk.

At noon, the official decree of the Japanese emperor came down, and everything was just as Abe Harumi said, and with it all kinds of gifts and souvenirs.

Seeing this situation, Kang Renjie knew that it didn't make much sense for him to stay any longer, so he immediately explained to the Xuanfanliao officials of the Japanese Ministry of Governance, who presided over the inn, that he was grateful to the Japanese emperor for his kindness, and that he would return immediately to report the progress of the matter to the Tang Dynasty.

On the morning of May 27, Kang Renjie and others set off, and Abe Qingming was still dressed in a monk's robe, carrying only a small burden, carrying a box of books, and following the team briskly.

This was the end of Kang Renjie's first mission to Japan.

At this time, Lin Feng finally ended the depressed time of recuperating in the inn, forced Suo Chao and Li Yuanqing to rent a carriage, and rushed back to Shouzhou by lying in the car all the way.

When they arrived at the corner of the main peak of Bagong Mountain in the east of Shouzhou City, it was already noon on May 27, and Lin Feng made a list and ordered Feng Jingyun to rush back to Shouzhou and invite everyone over.

When Lin Feng and the others finished lunch, Feng Jingyun, Xi Mucheng, Lu Jiang, Wei San, Chen Desheng, Cheng Yuehai and other henchmen all drove over, and when they saw Lin Feng standing in the middle of the road with a smile, all the people and horses threw off their horses from a distance, beat their chests to Lin Feng in unison, and sang loudly: "My subordinates have seen Lord Lin!" Congratulations to Lord Lin on his safe return! ”

As soon as Lin Feng looked at the Khitan military horses they were riding, he naturally knew that the fleet of the envoy to the Liao State had returned to Southern Tang and Shouzhou ahead of schedule, and his mood became relaxed and happy, and he greeted the brothers who had not seen him for nearly a month, asked about the situation of the military and civilians in Shouzhou City, and introduced them to the new brothers such as Li Yuanqing and Suo Chao who came together.

After listening carefully to their progress on the events in Shouzhou, Lin Feng moderately praised everyone a few words, and began today's main content: investigating the site selection of the Datang Science Branch.

Lin Feng got on his horse with some difficulty and followed everyone into a valley riverbank.

"Lord Lin, there are forty-seven peaks in this Bagong Mountain, hundreds of miles in radius, and the inside is like a labyrinth. Xi Mucheng immediately spoke loudly in front.

Lin Feng tried his best to control his body, not letting the shaking of his body touch his injured ribs, and looked at the surrounding peaks with a frown. The surrounding area is a more typical Jiangnan peak terrain, and the main peak that he passed just now looks like it is only more than 200 meters, and it is not the mountains and rivers that Lin Feng longs for.

Historically, did the famous "Battle of Weishui" really take place here, leaving a historical story of "the wind and the cranes, the grass and trees are all soldiers"? Lin Feng was a little puzzled for a while.

"It's coming soon!" Xi Mucheng saw a mountain in front of him shaped like a pen frame, jumped off the horse, came over and grabbed Lin Feng's reins, and introduced excitedly, "My subordinates have looked through the local history of Shouzhou, and found that this is the historical Huainan King Liu An and eight disciples refining the elixir and flying to the immortal realm, leaving an allusion of 'one person attains the Tao, and the chicken dog ascends to heaven'!" This is why it is also known as Bagong Mountain. ”

Historically, Bagong Mountain belonged to Huainan in the Western Han Dynasty. Liu An, the imperial uncle of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, was named King of Huainan at that time. Liu Anshang is a scholar and a talent, and has recruited more than 3,000 talented people from all over the world, and co-edited a generation of famous "Huainanzi". It is said that Liu An and the eight princes who he appreciated the most, such as Zuo Wu, Li Shang, Su Fei, Tian You, Mao Bun, Lei Bun, Wu Bun, and Jin Chang, often wrote books and lectures in the Bagong Mountain, studied celestial phenomena, compiled calendars, and smelted sand in Dan. "Taiping Huanyu Ji" once wrote: "In the past, the king of Huainan and the eight princes climbed the mountain and buried gold here, and ascended to heaven in the daytime." The remaining medicine is in the device, the chicken and the dog are all immortals. Behind it, there are traces of people and horses, still there, so the mountain is named after the eight princes. ”

Lin Feng covered his ribs and slowly got off the horse, Wei San and the others only found out at this time, and hurriedly rushed over to ask the reason. Lin Feng briefly described what happened in Haozhou, and slowly climbed the mountain peak, looking at the valley in front of him.

After looking at it for a long time, Lin Feng frowned and said: "This place is hidden inside and steep outside, it is a suitable place, but there is one biggest hidden danger!" ”

Facing the eyes of all his subordinates, Lin Feng pointed to the narrow valley and said softly: "This valley is also hidden, and it should be able to accommodate the basic facilities of our Academy of Sciences, but it is a little closer to the main road, and the terrain is relatively flat, so it is not secret enough." The setting of the Academy of Sciences needs to be re-planned, and the real is virtual, and the virtual is real! ”

Speaking of this, Lin Feng did not continue to talk about the Academy of Sciences, and instructed the few brothers brought by Suo Chao to grasp the top of the mountain, led a group of brothers down to a flat place halfway up the mountain, and instructed everyone to sit in the shade at will.

When everyone thought that Lin Feng was just discussing some trivial matters with everyone, who knew that Lin Feng startled everyone as soon as he opened his mouth.
