"I can't think of any reason for you to say 'no'. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Mo Yan completely ignored the provocative meaning of these words and said frankly.

"It's very simple," Meng Jiang said, "I was entrusted by the emperor to assist in this eastern tour, how could I give up my efforts before taking office because of your words?" You have also seen the situation of this fleet, and how many people will be implicated in this flotilla, you should also be imaginable, right? ”

"You can let them go." Mo Yan obviously thought about this problem too, "Tell them the truth, even if you are incognito from now on, it is better than giving up your life for an illusory hope." ”

"Illusory hope, what do you mean?" Meng Jiang asked suddenly.

"The hope of immortality." Mo Yan replied without hesitation. In fact, he also knew very well that saying this not only denied the so-called plan of Xu Fu to tour the Immortal Mountain in the east, but also denied the ideal that the emperor had been crazy for all these years. But what does immortality really mean...... Perhaps there is no one who has a better say than him.

Meng Jiang also seemed to be shaken by his firm tone, and said in a deep voice: "...... Xu Fu, how well do you know him? ”

There was no need to look back, Mo Yan also knew that Xu Fu was no longer behind him, when he walked towards Meng Jiang just now, he heard the footsteps behind him fading away, and he knew that this guy had taken the opportunity to slip away. After all, Mo Yan knew part of his details, and if he said it in front of him, I am afraid it would be quite embarrassing, but it would be more convenient to consider affirmation or denial afterwards.

But if you want to say how much Mo Yan knows Xu Fu, you can't talk about it, after all, most of them are just from hearsay, and the real relationship is only half a day. So he finally shook his head.

"To some extent, Xu Fu should be regarded as the first practitioner of the art of immortality." Meng Jiang said suddenly.

"Do you mean that he is rejuvenated?" Mo Yan asked.

Meng Jiang nodded and said, "That's not a statement, it's a fact. And he was able to do this, not relying on immortal arts, but ...... Medicine. ”

Hearing the word "medical skills", Mo Yan's eyes moved, but he did not interrupt Meng Jiang's words rashly, and listened to her quietly.

Meng Jiang turned his head and looked at the place where the sun was setting again, and continued: "If you have been to the places where he traveled in the early years, you will find that many people are praising him as a healer. Some of them go back very, very long...... I'm curious about what kind of project a person who has done so many miracles in himself and in others is running......

Mo Yan suddenly understood, it turned out that Meng Jiang was not in the dark and participated in this eastern tour, and her investigation of Xu Fu obviously far exceeded herself, and the reason why she knew that it was a game and did not debunk it was to solve another mystery in addition to immortality, that is: What is a person who has achieved immortality still pursuing?!

It's no wonder that when it comes to immortality, most people think it's a good outcome, and they can rest easy and no longer fear the threat of death. But it's hard to take into account that the word "death" is not the main factor that bothers people! It can even be said that death is often easy, and life is the most difficult subject!

Isn't that true for the emperor? Now he is thinking about how to live forever, but once he finds out that immortality is immortality, but he can't be "born" as he imagined, won't he fall into madness? What would an immortal and crazy emperor make of the world?

Immortality and madness must bring a long nightmare, long enough to span generations, dozens of generations, still carrying that heavy curse, never able to understand what it means to be free.

Mo Yan looked at Meng Jiang's pretty and mysterious face in the twilight, and suddenly, he was relieved that someone could experience such indescribable bitterness.

But even so, in the final analysis, it was only a personal matter for him, Meng Jiang, and Xu Fu, and most of the people on these boats behind him were just kept in the dark and involved in this matter, and there was no reason for them to also become victims of the curiosity of a few people and become more Ge Tan.

So Mo Yan said frankly: "If that's the case, the three of us can go and find out." ”

"Hehe," Meng Jiang smiled and turned back, "Do you think those people were forced to come?" Do you now go and tell them to go back, and they will go back? ”

This statement surprised Mo Yan a little, and he couldn't help but turn around and look at the people passing by the coast. You don't have to try to know the outcome, because in the face of any choice, there will be people to the left, some people to the right, and even some people who originally wanted to go to the left, once they were told to do something, immediately turned to the right.

"Then the only thing that can be done now is to tell the truth." Mo Yan said.

"The truth or something, it's not like others will believe it." Meng Jiang said.

This time, Mo Yan completely understood why Meng Jiang knew that this trip was most likely Xu Fu's bluff, but he didn't say a word before setting sail. People's hearts are really complicated, and perhaps the young girl in front of him knows more deeply than he, the inheritor of the mind-checking technique.

"I know what you're thinking," Meng Jianglin said, "I'll do my best when it's really necessary." ”

I am ashamed that after hearing this, Mo Yan surged with such feelings. Of course, he understands the meaning of "doing his best", even if there is something to preserve, he naturally has to "do his best", not just thinking about hiding this matter and it's over! If he Mo Yan was still a man, of course, it was impossible to let a girl do her best alone, at least from the moment he chose to sneak into the fleet, he Mo Yan had already decided to give up everything!

The two looked at each other, no more verbal communication, and had already formed a tacit understanding in their hearts.

That night, tents were erected everywhere, fires were lit, and the whole coast was glowing red. Mo Yan sat alone in front of a bonfire, quietly watching the flames leap in the pyre.

"Childe, how is it?" A voice sounded behind him, and he didn't have to look back to know that this was Xu Fu who had come to probe the wind.

Mo Yan knew that he couldn't tell Xu Fu the truth, and the tacit understanding he reached with Meng Jiang was to observe Xu Fu's next move, how could he directly tell him, "We already know that you have a ghost in your heart"?

So Mo Yan just said lightly: "Don't worry, I didn't tell Meng Jiang about Ge Tan." ”

"So, did you talk to her about the return flight?" Xu Fu leaned over and sat down and continued to ask.

"Yes, but she doesn't agree with me." Every sentence is true, but does not reveal any real thoughts, which is also a kind of language art.

"That'...... What are your plans? Xu Fu listened, pondered for a moment and asked.

"What do you suggest?" Mo Yan asked him rhetorically.

"Me?" Xu Fu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I have a plan, I don't know if you are willing to cooperate." ”

Even if the "plan" comes out, it is definitely not a temporary idea, I am afraid that I have already estimated all kinds of possibilities in advance and arranged various retreats for myself. So Mo Yan didn't keep silent, and he didn't look at Xu Fu, waiting for him to say it himself.

Xu Fu was obviously used to his way of communicating, so he cleared his throat and said, "Meng Jiang is doing things for the emperor, what does the emperor want?" Want a result! Xianshan is not there, it is all a result, especially if I Xu Fu does not follow back to the dynasty, I will naturally be the best person to take the blame, Meng Jiang does not have any risk, in a few years, this matter will naturally be over, who cares where I Xu Fu goes.

Childe, what do you want? I would venture to guess that I would like to have an account for your friends and for those whom you care for with a loving heart. Ge Tan's matter, I also know that I can't get out of it, but even if I die, he won't be able to live, but it is more important to preserve the living. You tell me?

And I, Xu Fu, as long as I belong to a piece of pure land, stay away from trouble, and mix with a group of people who share the same ideals as me, whether I am poor or poor, or I die, I am left to fend for myself, and I have nothing to do with others, that's all.

Now I have a way to give everyone the opportunity to get what they need, and from then on, everyone will scatter and pursue their own goals, isn't it a foolproof strategy? ”

Mo Yan listened to him talk about the truth, and he didn't refute it, but just asked: "You said that you want me to cooperate, what kind of cooperation method?" ”

Xu Fu was overjoyed when he heard that it seemed to be a play, and said with a slightly mysterious smile on his face: "Actually, it's very simple, as long as the son 'stands by'." (To be continued.) )
