In the northern suburbs of Paris in June, in the chemical poison gas forest, a horse-drawn carriage galloped past in the dark night.

The Nine Colors of the Tomb Beast are alive, but their owner is dying.

Qin Beiyang saw a rotating tunnel, winding under the White Deer Plains Necropolis. The murals are all alive, starting with the brilliant and bright Tang Dynasty people, then becoming the light and elegant Song Dynasty people, then the Mongols from the south of the grassland, then the Ming Dynasty people who are sitting on pins and needles, followed by the Qing Dynasty people with shaved hair and money rat tails, and finally the Gengzi Year when the sky is falling apart......

Ouyang Anna called out beside him, desperately doing artificial respiration, mouth to mouth, digging heart and lungs, almost wanting to pass on her life to him. The carriage rushed into the hospital in downtown Paris, and Qin Beiyang was passing through the Ghost Gate, stepping on the Huangquan Road, crossing the Lethe River, and walking onto the Nai He Bridge. An old woman sat at the head of the bridge, like an old woman at the Kyoto Yokai Museum in Japan, who was too old to know how many hundreds of years ago she was thousands of years old, and handed him a bowl of thick hot soup, exuding all the scents that could be smelled in previous lives and present lives......

When he was about to drink this bowl of soup, forgetting everything in this life, forgetting the nine colors, forgetting Anna, and forgetting the little prince of the Tang Dynasty, the doctor gave him a shot in the arm.

Adrenaline was injected into Qin Beiyang's body, restoring excitement to his almost stagnant heart. The doctor said he was hopeless, but at Anna's strong request, the rescue lasted all night.

The sky was bright, and the warm blood jade pendant on his chest began to get hot, and Qin Beiyang opened his eyes.

Anna buried himself in his body and wept, put her arms around his head and said, "Be good, you have to be good, live well!" Alive! ”

Am I left alive? Qin Beiyang, who escaped death, asked himself silently.

Before he was out of danger, the doctors gave him a thorough examination and X-rays, and the results were desperate - he had a malignant tumor in his lungs and was no longer eligible for surgery. Even with aggressive treatment, life expectancy lasts up to two months.

The result couldn't be hidden, Qin Beiyang knew everything, and he smiled indifferently on the hospital bed: "It's a little better than I imagined." ”

Ouyang Anna lay on his chest, afraid of pressing his lungs, and got up and pressed against his cheek: "Beiyang, no matter what the result is, I will accompany you to go down." ”

"Thank you for my acquaintance." Qin Beiyang held the palm of her hand and said, "Leave me alone, Anna, your future is bright, and I'm about to go to the grave." ”

"Fart! I'll keep you in charge, even if you're a monkey, you can't escape from the palm of my hand. ”

"You think you're the Buddha? But Sun Wukong can be crushed under the Five Elements Mountain for five hundred years, and I only have sixty days left. ”

Anna choked back tears and blocked his mouth with her fingers: "Don't say it! ”

"I'm going to be discharged." Qin Beiyang pulled out the infusion tube in his hand, "The doctor said, hospitalization won't help, as long as you take medicine every day, it can help me alleviate my pain." ”

"Where are you going?"

"Go back to the forest and find the Nine Colors."

"No, your cancer is just because it's too close to the Nine Colors! Li Longsheng said that he thought that the spirit stone in the heart of the tomb beast had natural radioactivity that was harmful to the human body, and the nine-colored spirit stone was particularly powerful, and it was a miracle that you could survive to this day. ”

"Li Longsheng?" Qin Beiyang said in a sour tone, "Yes, he is a doctor from the Department of Physics of Cambridge University, a genius boy, of course what he said makes sense." ”

"You are not allowed to go near the Nine Colors again! I'll take care of it for you. Remember, two years ago, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have known Nine Colors if it weren't for me to find a craftsman to repair the Tomb Beast. ”

Qin Beiyang said stupidly: "Then when will you return it to me?" ”

"Until the day you are healed."

"That's the next life."

He got up from the bed, staggered out, and Anna helped him and said, "If you really want to be discharged, then I can find you a place to stay." ”

The next day, Ouyang Anna called a carriage and took Qin Beiyang out of the hospital. He couldn't take away the nine colors of the town's tomb beast, but he brought the An Lushan Tang knife given to him by his father.

Come to the Latin Quarter of Paris and walk up to one of the apartment buildings in a great location. At the corner of the staircase on the third floor, the little county king of Ordos Doro, Timur was waiting for them.

During his time in Paris, he met a French girl, a nurse student studying in medical school. He was accustomed to a good life of fine clothes and fine food, and could not stand the cramped rooms of the Chinese delegation. Anyway, he had francs and pounds in his pocket, and he rented an apartment in the Latin Quarter and built a love nest with a French girl. Anna was never polite to the little county king, and persuaded him in a few words, gave up a spare guest room, and asked the little French nurse to take care of Qin Beiyang.

The room is clean, medicines and infusion equipment are prepared, and the window is facing the tree-lined Jardin du Luxembourg, a good environment for recuperation and rest. Anna, a French interpreter for the Chinese delegation who must live in Versailles, said she would visit him every day.

"The bones are half dead, the blood is dead, the four branches are withered, and the facial features are lacking ......" Qin Beiyang looked in a big mirror, but he no longer recognized himself, "If God exists and dies, the heart is not born and does not perish." ”

"What are you talking about?"

"Lu Zhaolin, one of the 'Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty', described himself as poor and sick, which can be used on me."

"Nonsense! Your life is so hard, I don't know how many lives you have killed. When the whole world is dead, you are still alive. I have to go, the little king will take care of you like a father. ”

Anna dropped the sentence and kissed him on the cheek goodbye.

She went to the poison forest in the northern suburbs of Paris and brought out the nine colors that turned into a big dog. The Four-Winged Angel Tomb Beast remained in place, and the Italians Caproni and Chanco were interested in anything that could fly.

Ouyang Anna returned to Versailles with Nine Colors, and in order not to attract attention, they lived together in the basement. Jiu Se missed Qin Beiyang very much, and every time he made a strange sound, it was directly transmitted to her brain.

When sleeping at night, Nine Colors automatically moves away from Anna. It treats itself as a scourge, a curse, huddled in the corner of the basement, preferring to fend for itself. But when she woke up in the middle of the night, she saw nine-colored glass-colored eyeballs, which became like a ferocious beast......

At daybreak, Anna heard a commotion, and the Tomb Beast rolled over. She dressed and came to the foyer, only to see a group of dusty Chinese, mostly high-ranking officials of the Beiyang government.

At the end of the team, a familiar face emerged - a man in his thirties, a satin gown, a black-trimmed white top hat, thick black eyebrows deep into his sideburns, and two thick mustaches on his lips.

There was also a man beside Inspector Ye, less than twenty years old, tall and straight, with bright eyes, and he acted like a young soldier. His waist bulged, and he feared hiding a pistol, and he scanned every face alertly.

"Qi Yuanshan."

Anna rushed to him and punched her old friend who had been reunited after a long absence, feeling that her chest was stronger than before, and it must be the result of her training in Japan.

"I haven't seen you for a year, and you've become pretty again."

Qi Yuanshan's ability to make girls happy has improved by leaps and bounds, but Anna thought of Qin Beiyang, who was on the verge of death, and said a face: "Don't open your eyes and talk nonsense, I've been here these days, I can't eat and sleep, I can't sleep at night, I've become ugly." ”

Between speaking, Ye Kenan coughed dryly: "Miss Anna, don't come unharmed." ”

"Inspector Ye, I think about you all the time."

"Well, don't forget the other one."

Ye Kenan was reminding her not to forget Qin Beiyang. Since entering the Palace of Versailles, in front of the most powerful men in the world, diplomats from various countries have accosted her, and there is no shortage of tall and handsome beautiful men, inviting her to dinner in the Latin Quarter, or to a bar for a drink, but they are all politely declined.

"The man you're talking about, right now, is in Paris. There are a lot of people here, and we will talk about it in the evening. Anna said sadly, "Why are you here?" ”

"There was a lot of trouble in Beijing, and the workers in Shanghai went on strike. We, the police, have to go out into the streets every day to maintain order. The president and the prime minister are not people inside and out, and they are anxious. However, for these officials, it is an opportunity to travel abroad. Ye Kenan dusted off his robe and sat on the sofa on the first floor of the hotel, as if a detective was handling the case on the spot, "I was ordered by the Minister of Internal Affairs to protect the safety of the Chinese delegation. ”

"Are you here to catch the Assassins?"

"If the Chinese delegation leaves Paris safe and sound, it will be regarded as burning incense."

After Ye Kenan finished speaking, an order came from upstairs: "Colleagues, the whole delegation is in a meeting, please go to the conference room on the second floor." ”
