Ju Meng took Zhang Jiayang, Dou Ying, and Yuan Ang to his mother's bedside, and Zhang Jiayang found that the old lady's spirit was far worse than when she saw it in their old house the night before, her eyes were closed, her lips were slightly closed, her face was dull, and her whole face was like a deflated ball constricted together.

Ju Meng first shouted: "Mother, my friend has come to see you?"
The old lady opened her eyes with difficulty, the corners of her mouth moved slightly, and her voice was as subtle as silkworm spinning: "It's Meng'er, my mother is sick, I'm afraid it won't work this time." ”
"Mother, no, even if you are poor, you have to cure your illness, you must hold on. ”
Zhang Jiayang also stepped forward and said, "Auntie, your illness is a minor illness, and you will definitely get better." ”
Dou Ying and Yuan Ang also hurriedly echoed: "Yes, aunt, it's just that I feel cold, just take some medicine." ”
The old lady grinned slightly: "Engong, thank you for your rescue the night before, Dou Ying and Yuan An, you two are old friends of Meng'er, you must help him take the right path in the future, don't make trouble everywhere, so that I can rest assured after I leave, life is going after all, this time I can feel that I am getting closer and closer to that side." ”
"Auntie, Meng Gongzi has always been on the right path, and he has always been committed to the suffering of the Han people, for the sake of the common people of the Han Dynasty, so aunt don't worry, the sky will take care of our family. Dou Ying said.
"Yes, yes. Yuan Ang immediately agreed.
"Hehehe, and Meng'er, you must be kind to Engong, you must help if you have any difficulties, remember the grace of receiving a drop of water, and you should repay it with a spring. The old lady continued.
"I will definitely remember my mother's instructions. Ji Meng knelt in front of the bed and cried.
The old housekeeper ran in at this time and said hurriedly: "Everyone, the immortal master is here, the immortal master is here." ”
Everyone immediately got out of the way, let the witch doctor walk to the bed, it was a middle-aged woman with sallow skin and a cloak of hair, only to see the witch doctor sitting on the side of the old lady's bed and turned the old lady's eyelids, and called the pulse, let the old lady open her mouth to look at the tongue coating, and said softly: "Look closely at the white eyelids, the tongue coating is yellow, the pulse is disordered, and the mouth is turbid and exhaled, this state is not easy to say." ”
Ji Meng gently pulled the witch doctor to the next room and asked, "Immortal Master, if you have something to say, you don't have to hide it." ”
"Okay, Master Meng, the old lady is terminally ill. ”
"No way, my mother was fine the day before yesterday, but it was caused by the robbers at night. ”
"Childe doesn't know, the day before yesterday or even more in the past, the old lady only relied on the spirit to maintain, and the robber incident was just a fuse, causing the spirit to disappear in a short period of time before it became like this. ”
"Immortal Master, can my mother's illness still be treated?"
"With all due respect, legend has it that if you can pick the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum from the Northern Snow Mountain, it can be delayed for a few days or months, but the journey from here to the Northern Snow Mountain is also a few months away, where it is still under the control of the Huns, and it may not be possible to pick Ganoderma lucidum to the place. ”
"Alas, it seems that my mother's life should be like this, thank you for coming, can you do me a favor. ”
"Meng Gongzi just talked. ”
"You came to my mother's bedside and told my mother that she was just feeling a cold, and that she would get better by taking some medicine to replenish qi and reduce fire. ”
"This-, well, no wonder Meng Gongzi's filial piety. ”
The wizard talked nonsense according to the request of the drama Meng, and the old lady smiled with a smile: "Thank you Immortal Master for coming to see me, people's fate is predestined, and my life must have been arranged by God, and the Immortal Master doesn't have to comfort me." ”
The witch doctor casually said New Year's greetings, and then prescribed some innocuous Chinese medicine and left in a hurry.
Ju Meng lay in front of his mother's bed and took care of him, and said to Dou Ying and Yuan An: "Let's go on a trip, don't delay your trip." ”
"Let's take turns with Brother Meng to take care of our aunt, otherwise we won't be at ease. Dou Ying said.
"Then Zhang Daxia should hurry up and go to Wu Kingdom, don't waste time here. Ju Meng said.
"Then how can it be done, I must wait until my aunt's illness is cured before leaving. Zhang Jiayang thought to himself, "Dahan is really a country that rules the world with filial piety, you can see how benevolent and filial piety it is from the body of Ju Meng, and I must also learn from the spirit of Dahan." ”
The old lady miraculously persevered for a week, and on the eighth day, there was a terrible cry from the drama Mengfu, and Zhang Jiayang, Dou Ying, and Yuan Ang immediately realized: "The old lady may have passed away." ”
After a while, I saw the old housekeeper running over in a panic and said to the three of them: "A few distinguished guests, my old lady has passed away, woo woo." ”
"Old housekeeper, I didn't expect the old lady to leave, please don't be too sad, Meng Gongzi still needs your persuasion." ”
"Yes, yes" So the old housekeeper and the three of them hurriedly walked to the back house together, and saw that Ju Meng had already cried into tears.
Several people stepped forward to persuade him: "Master Meng, people can't be resurrected after death, please mourn by the way, don't cry and break your body, and then the loss of the old lady still needs your command to take an idea." ”
"Thank you for the reminder. Ju Meng suddenly came to his senses, and then said to the old housekeeper, "Hurry up and send out all the people who can be sent out in the house, and inform my relatives and friends of the news of the old lady's journey to the west, and if it is convenient for them, they will come to see the old lady on her last journey." ”
"No. The old butler received the order of Ju Meng and hurriedly sent it.
According to the rules of Luoyang's funeral, it is necessary to park the deceased relatives at home for seven days, and then bury, from the next day, the relatives and friends of the drama Meng came one after another in the vehicle, all of them fell to the ground and cried bitterly about the departure of the old lady, and the busy Dou Ying, Yuan An, and Zhang Jiayang greeted the guests for the drama Meng like a spinning top.
Time finally came to the seventh day of the old lady's death, the day of the burial, the funeral guests were transported by thousands of vehicles, stretching for several kilometers in Luoyang City, and the onlookers were countless.
After the old lady was buried, there were guests from afar who came to the grave to mourn, and Ju Meng, as a filial son, must keep filial piety in front of the grave for three years, so Dou Ying, Yuan An, and Zhang Jiayang were inconvenient to continue to disturb, so they quietly said goodbye to Luoyang, and made an appointment to see each other later.
Without saying anything all the way, Zhang Jiayang came to Guangling in a blink of an eye, and when he saw this rich southern city, his eyes lit up, and he said to himself: "Shi Lao, Black Tiger, and Xiao Zhuge really know how to choose a place, hide here and enjoy Qingfu, hehehe." ”
After inquiry, Zhang Jiayang rode straight to the location of the Wu Palace, and saw the splendid palace of Jinbi and the two majestic soldiers standing at the door, Zhang Jiayang was not only in awe, but also in awe, what an imposing building, Zhang Jiayang turned over and dismounted and walked to a soldier and said: "May I ask this military master, do you know the old man of Zhonglang Guanshi, is he in the palace now?"
"Ouch, who are you, Shi Lao is what you call casually, don't have a head. The soldier replied angrily.
"Hehehe, I'm sorry, I'm offended, may I ask if He Shijin Zhonglang is in the palace?"
Another soldier continued: "Even if you react quickly, let me tell you, our official He Zhonglang is not in the palace today, and he accompanied King Wu to the bottom early in the morning to observe the people's situation." ”
"Are Gu Shijie and Zhao Xiaohu here?"
And they went with them. ”
"When will they be back?"
"Oh, you really have a lot to do, at least a week, at most ten days and a half months may not be able to come back. ”
When Zhang Jiayang heard this answer, his heart suddenly cooled, thinking about how this is good, and then he wanted to find Xia Ziyan, isn't his main task to find Xia Ziyan. So he came to the soldier's side and said, "May I ask the military master, do you know where the late crown princess Xia Ziyan lives?"
"Ouch, the king's secrets are starting to be asked, be careful that you really lose your head. ”
Zhang Jiayang hurriedly took out some broken silver and handed it to the soldier, and then said: "Please also ask the military master to make it clear that I have no malicious intentions, but I was entrusted by her relatives to send her a message." ”
"Since you are not afraid of death, I will tell you, don't think about finding Xia Ziyan in this Guangling City, I heard that he went to a temple on a mountain to cut his hair and become a nun. ”
"yes, do you know what mountain it is?"
"The mountain is in a mountainous area north of Guangling City, and it still has no name, so let's call it Nameless Mountain. ”
"Jiayang thanks, thank you for saying so much to me. Zhang Jiayang rode on the horse, drove directly to the outside of Guangling City, out of the city gate, everything is very clean, there are no people in a radius of hundreds of miles, so there is no distinction between southeast and northwest, see the mountain to see if there is a temple, the east and the west are messy, and when the sun is about to set, Zhang Jiayang rode a horse to a mountain col, because the day's search has no results and is very depressed, he sang while walking:
Concubine Xia, you are in He Shantou,
Shi Lao, don't go away,
Jiayang thousands of miles to get together,
but he fell to the top of a barren mountain,
Ask Qingtian to open his eyes,
Let me have a smooth ride,
Looking for people to come and worry-free.
Before he roared twice, he saw five fast horses galloping out of the canyon, and swished to Zhang Jiayang, and the leader was a one-eyed dragon with one eye, and said with a smile: "Little white face, what are you shouting nonsense on my territory, I don't want to live." ”
Zhang Jiayang immediately retorted: "What is your territory, this is a barren mountain and a wild ridge, okay, I can sing if I am willing to sing, do you care about it." ”
"Yo drink, brothers, I have a thorn in the head today, gather around and help him loosen his bones, and help him pull out the thorns. ”
"Okay, big brother, let's teach this kid a lesson together, so that he doesn't know the height of the sky. ”
Suddenly, Zhang Jiayang was surrounded in the middle.
