Simon's book is very popular in a small circle.

Several of his books have even been excerpted into the academy as teaching materials.

Zheng Xiu glanced at the words left on the brocade box in the basket.

Well?

"Jiang Gaoyi's wife is also a loyal reader of Ximen Bei, and she gave a green jade paperweight."

"Can this king go in and wait for Mr. Simon to return?"

Although Zheng Xiu became the prince, he did not overwhelm people with power.

The scholar was worried when he heard this: "But the teacher goes out to collect materials, and the short is three or five days, and the long is a few months...... I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the teacher to come back. ”

"It's okay, I'll just go in and have a look."

Zheng Xiu said and took steps, and a crying dolphin voice came out of the young scholar's mouth: "Lord Wang, by all means, by all means, the teacher will scold the little one when he comes back!" ”

It seems that Simon told him that no one should enter his study, but today he is the prince of the dynasty, and the scholar has a humble status and can't stop it, so he is so embarrassed.

"In that case." Zheng Xiu stopped and walked out of the door: "This king will visit another day." ”

As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, Zheng Xiu blew a whistle in his mouth, Qing 13 was invited, and silently reached out and gently knocked on the side of the scholar's neck, and put down the scholar who was powerless.

After Qing 13 put down the scholar, he blew out a puff of smoke, and the smoke enveloped the courtyard in an instant, and one of the wisps of smoke was like a hand, closing the courtyard door tightly.

"Lord Wang, you are ......" Qing 13 put down the scholar, blew smoke and released obstacles, and closed the courtyard door, this set of actions was so skillful that it was distressing, and it was done in one go. Only then did he frown and said, "Trespassing on the house? ”

Zheng Xiu squinted his eyes and smiled: "The whole world is not the king's land." ”

Qing 13 was speechless: "But your land is in Shuzhou, Lord Wang." ”

"Almost, almost. Don't worry about such details. ”

Zheng Xiu understands Qing Thirteen, this Qing batch is pure and poor, and if he really wants to do something exciting, he will be happier than anyone else. There was a lock on the door, Zheng Xiu checked it, and was about to let Qing Thirteen think of a way, when the window on the side had already opened the latch from the inside, "Another" Qing Thirteen smiled and beckoned to King Chi: "Lord Wang, this way!" ”

Zheng Xiu was stunned for a moment: "I am a dignified Qianchi King, you let me climb the window to enter?" ”

"Okay! Na Qing kicked the door open! Standing outside the house, Keisan lifted his leg as he spoke.

Zheng Xiu immediately jumped in through the window.

Entering Ximen Bei's study, Qing 13 had already taken a turn in the house and opened all the windows for ventilation.

"Lord Wang, there is really no one inside."

"I know."

Zheng Xiu looked at the inner room, which was elegantly furnished, with a few nameless paintings hanging on the walls, many antique objects on the shelves, and the whole study had an antique and fragrant taste, which was quite in line with Zheng Xiu's impression of a "literati".

This is the "literati", the realm of literati like Mo Zhi who only knows how to copy books is too low, and he is full of a cottage smell, and he has a chance to get a little bit of that kid another day.

Zheng Xiu thought about it, turned around, and didn't notice anything unusual. There is a long eucalyptus in the study, and there are many papers scattered on the eucalyptus, some of which are folded into a stack, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are all in the corner of the table. Obviously, this is where Simon usually works.

The stack of papers on the table is Ximen Bei's unfinished new book, the title of which is "Exinjuanxiu", Zheng Xiu tried to read.

"E's Heart Juanxiu" is a story about a "Xiu'e".

Xiu'e grew up in a remote mountain village.

The village is full of mountains and fields to grow a kind of sweet fruit, the villagers can't eat it all, and many of them rot in the ground every year.

One year, a young man named "Dadi" decided to help his fellow villagers get rich and sold sweet fruits. He has been out for three years, knows many people, and buys sweet fruits at a price of six cents per catty.

Xiu'e inadvertently discovered that the young man bought sweet fruits and made the difference, and the sweet fruits collected outside the land were according to "seven cents" a catty. So the upright Xiu'e scolded the young man in front of the villagers' fathers and elders, saying that he made the villagers' black money.

The villagers scolded one after another, scolding the young people for not making money from the villagers.

The earth felt aggrieved, and in a fit of rage, he quit and left the village. Seeing that no one cared about the sweet fruits all over the mountains, the villagers scratched their heads, and the kind-hearted Xiu'e bravely stood up at this time and promised to find a way to sell the sweet fruits. After she entered the city, she found that something was wrong, it turned out that sweet fruits were grown in the surrounding mountains, and the purchase price of sweet fruits in the city was getting lower and lower.

Xiu'e remembered what she had promised the villagers, and gritted her teeth to find the local rich businessman. The elderly wealthy businessman Tu Xiu'e was beautiful and proposed to take Xiu'e as a concubine, Xiu'e gritted her teeth and agreed, because of Xiu'e's sacrifice, the sweet fruits of the villagers were finally sold for seven cents.

The good times didn't last long, and in the second year, sweet fruits were overflowing, and the rich were not happy, thinking that this was a loss-making business, so they sold Xiu'e to the Qinglou. Xiu'e washed her face with tears every day in the Qinglou, but she was angry and worked hard to make money by picking up customers, and she always bought the sweet fruits of the villagers at a price of seven cents.

A few years later, the young man reunited with Xiu'e in the green building, and after he learned the tragic story of Xiu'e, he cried bitterly and hugged each other, and the young man chose to forgive her on the spot. After all these years of her upheaval and exile, she went out to practice, and the two finally returned to the simple mountain village and lived a life without fighting with the world.

……

The time to read always flies so fast.

Time passed quietly with the sound of turning pages.

"Lord Wang, what are you crying for?"

When Qing Shisan's puzzled voice sounded in his ears, Zheng Xiucai came back to his senses, looked at Qing Pi with a stunned face, and said to himself: "Yes, what the am I crying about?" ”

He touched his face, it was wet, salty, if nothing else, tears.

Zheng Xiu put down the stack of drafts in shock and exclaimed, "Hey, no, why am I crying?!" ”

Zheng Xiu's shocked and suspicious voice was a little wrong, and Qing Shisan picked up the draft in confusion and read it patiently.

Reading and reading, Qing 13 is wiping his tears.

In the end, the two looked at each other: "What are we crying about?" ”

After a moment, a chill arose, and Zheng Xiu took a few steps back in fright, staring vigilantly at the draft on the table.

Qing Shisan's reaction was similar to that of Zheng Xiu.

It stands to reason that the stories written in the book are absolutely impossible to empathize, and Zheng Xiu is not so much empathetic as ...... Polluted by the plot inside.

Hiss......

After calming down, Qing Shisan's face was solemn, his eyes stared at the stack of drafts murderously, and he said a four-word evaluation: "Extraordinary." ”

Zheng Xiu also nodded thoughtfully, it seems that this book can't be read anymore.

Qing 13 asked, "Lord Wang, do you suspect him ......?" ”

Zheng Xiu smiled bitterly: "This king looks at everyone like a candle now." ”

"Lord Wang, you're sick."

Qing 13 listened to it, and he didn't know that this was the prince who was suspicious, and sighed.

"It's not a bad thing to be cautious."

Qing 13 understood, and nodded vigorously: "I'll let the brothers keep an eye on it." ”

This matter was settled between the master and the servant.

After Zheng Xiu and Qing 13 left, it took a while for the scholar to wake up staggeringly, and when he woke up, he found himself lying on the stone table in the courtyard and asleep. He was so frightened that he looked at the door lock of the study, and found that the doors and windows of the study were closed well, which was relieved.

Just like Zheng Xiu said to Qing Thirteen, since the disappearance of the "Night Lord", he is indeed a little suspicious now, and everyone looks like a candle. It's just that if Zheng Xiu's guess was right at the beginning, Candle should not dare to approach the imperial city. It is unlikely that Simon is a candle.

Regardless of whether Ximen Bei was born alien or not, the "literati" path he took meant that what he wrote had a strange lethality, and he could quietly mobilize the emotions of Zheng Xiu and Qing Shisan through words, which can be regarded as an alternative "terrible".

"You don't have to use a knife to kill."

Later, when Zheng Xiu told Fengbei about this incident, he sighed and sighed: "Literati, painters, chess scholars, officials, doctors, and some of the upper nine streams look polite and weak, but in fact they have another terrible place. ”

"Weak...... Impotence? When Fengbei heard this, he slowly put out a question mark: "But half of the city collapsed with one punch." ”

Zheng Xiu didn't answer, and said to himself: "The same is true for painters, more ever-changing. ”

Fengbei didn't give up: "But you collapsed half of the city with one punch." ”

"Meow woo woo meow woo!"

[Fool, fool, fool! 】

The orange cat grinned and rolled on the ground.

Zheng Xiu reasonably suspected that on the night of dining with Wei Chen, the orange cat was not drunk thoroughly, he remembered that Zheng Xiu scolded him for being a stupid cat, and now he was taking revenge on him in a different way.

In the early days of the official opening of the Disaster Prevention Bureau, the Disaster Prevention Bureau finally became a successful operation. As the leader of the Disaster Prevention Bureau, Zheng Xiu has not been idle these days. In addition to practicing swords, teasing cats, Xi Feng, and soaking in poison to brush experience, Zheng Xiu read all the secret records left by Weiyang and the secret department the night before.

Ye Weiyang didn't leave much useful, all of them were the sealed files of the twenty years of treacherous eucalyptus. It would be whimsical to find the Candle's hiding place from these secret records.

On the contrary, the secret records accumulated by the secret department over the years have brought Zheng Xiu a lot of surprises. Since the emperor gave Yin Qingqing to him, Yin Qingqing has gradually become accustomed to his new identity, even if his words are still not salty, but from some details, it can be seen that Yin Qingqing's attitude towards Zheng Xiu has really changed.

She took the initiative to hand over the secret record of the secret department to Zheng Xiu, which contained many lost ancient scrolls and legends, and the mountains and wilderness. Zheng Xiu found speculation about the "source of the Inhuman's ability" in a secret scroll left ten years ago.

It is said above that the reason why the Inhumans are born to occupy the Door is because the existence of the Inhumans itself is between the "Everyday" and the "Everlasting World". This concept coincides with Zheng Xiu's speculation about "humanoid ghosts". Because of the special nature of the Inhumans, they can use something called "Filth" in "Changyan" to evolve "Filth" into various special abilities.

And everything that the "thaumaturgist" practiced was nothing more than playing the role of "alien".

Limited by the limitations of the times and vision, the speculation on the dense scroll is only superficial, and does not elaborate on deeper theories. There are many similar secret volumes, and Zheng Xiu spent a few days reading them in one go, not to mention that he benefited a lot, at least he gained a little.

Since the "Raven Death" incident, the sky of the Imperial City has been clean for a while. Recently, some people have noticed that from time to time there are several dark red crows hovering in the sky, stopping between the pavilions and flying arches.

That was Wei Chen's "Blood Crow".

The blood crow is equivalent to Wei Chen's eyes, because the crow keeper himself is disabled, he can't spread the blood crows all over the world like the original night master, but it is not a big problem to put a few in the sky to keep an eye on them.

Wei Chen did not hide this, he told Zheng Xiu that twenty years ago, there was a "one-eyed crow keeper" who ran out and went to the desert. Now it is hidden in the "mirage", the base camp of the broken building in the desert.

And the "mirage" is the housekeeping skill of the "Shankui" who is the best at defending the most of the ten crippled buildings. It can be said that these Chinese New Year's Eve secretly searched for the broken building, and even found the trace of the broken building in the desert, but also failed to help the broken building, precisely because of the "mirage" of the "mountain kui" protection technique.

Among the ten leaders of the incomplete building, there are "snakes", "leaves", "emptiness" in the disaster prevention bureau who receive money to do things, as well as the "rumors" of the past, and the monks of today. The ten leaders of the crippled building have their own strengths, and they can fight with Ye Weiyang for many years, which shows that their skills are not small.

The two sisters, Snake and Ye, would visit from time to time, enter the Chiwang Mansion to eat, and contact their feelings. Between the back and forth, Zheng Xiu also heard the path taken by the twin sisters.

Ying Ying held the small "snake" and walked the [Divine Witch] path, and the overwhelmed sister "Ye" walked the [Musician] path.

Now Zheng Xiu has countless strange people around him, far more powerful than the original "Zheng family", the broken building, the old department of Yeweiyang, and the Zheng brotherhood, the three are combined, and a new behemoth called "Chang Yan Disaster Prevention and Control Bureau" was born. Zheng Xiu is confident that even if the candle has lived for a thousand years, as long as he is still hiding, it means that there is something in the imperial city that makes him jealous, if he dares to come, Zheng Xiu has a certain degree of confidence, leave the candle in the city, don't go out.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

Ximen Bei, who went out to collect materials, has not yet returned, Zheng Xiu let people stare at it, and ignored the matter for the time being.

Another wild alien who lived in the city, [Credit Knife Man] Sun Erming, the poor man who had been stuck in the Red King's body for a long time, Zheng Xiu took the time to meet him.

When Zheng Xiu found Sun Erming, he was hiding in the Dali Temple with a dirty body, homeless, munching on leftovers from the Xiangmanlou. Even so, these are the most expensive dishes in Xiangmanlou, and they are almost untouched, and Sun Erming eats very hilariously.

Sun Erming has never shown any particular strength in front of Zheng Xiu, and he is not particularly strong. But Zheng Xiu, in line with the idea of "never underestimate any stranger", threw an olive branch to Sun Erming: "Has the Disaster Prevention Bureau heard about it?" ”

Sun Erming nodded dumbfoundedly, he still had the dog skin plaster on his face.

Zheng Xiu said with a smile: "As long as you want, the position of the 'pillar' is yours, glory and wealth, and you can get it at your fingertips." ”

The young man hesitated and did not immediately agree.

His doorway promotion is stuck in Zheng Xiu's place, his future is worrying, he has been waiting for the "divination" to be fulfilled, but Zheng Xiu's side can't be fulfilled, and he is forced to do it.

Zheng Xiu is not in a hurry, not long after Sun Erming, at the beginning of August, Lu Zhen's "Asking for Eucalyptus" finally has the following.

It was a sunny afternoon, and after lunch, Zheng Xiu secretly beckoned to Fengbei, Fengbei understood, and the two of them went into the room.

Zheng Xiu took off his shirt, revealing his increasingly strong upper body.

"Press, don't do anything else, it shouldn't matter, right?" Zheng Xiu persuaded bitterly: "You see, the king of Japan has a lot of affairs, heavy shoulders, back pain, and excessive work. If this king is tired, it will not work here or there, and it will be bitter in the future...... It's you, too! ”

Fengbei has a good heart, even if his heart is still hiding pimples, he hesitates a little, but he still agrees.

Zheng Xiu was lying on his stomach, Fengbei rode on Zheng Xiu's body, and pressed Zheng Xiu's shoulders and waist with both hands.

"Madame's methods are as good as ever."

When Zheng Xiu was enjoying the great health care of Fengbei, Chang Shihua lit up out of place.

Zheng Xiu looked at the call prompt and turned it on.

"Oh no, no, no, no!"

As soon as she connected the phone, Xi'er's opening lightning strike, she held Chang Shie in a panic and shouted:

"Crab brother, crab brother,"

"He's pregnant!"

On the other side of Chang Shi's painting, in addition to Xi'er's voice, there are also the young man's weak and helpless cry, and the laughter of Jun Bu Laugh.

"Hee-hee-hee, there is joy and joy! Congratulations! ”

Xi'er was so anxious that she didn't notice Fengbei riding on Zheng Xiu's body for a short time.

The one who sees who kills who is the first three of the wind.

The hand with the ominous Fengbei.

I am gently giving the Red King great health care.

It's a big thing to spread out and make the whole bureau earthquake.

"Who's pregnant?"

When Zheng Xiu and Feng Bei heard this, they were stunned at the same time.

"Ink! The one that vomits at the sight of a praying mantis! ”

"Grass?" This amount of information was too much, so Zheng Xiu took a while to ease up, and was stunned for a while: "How could he be pregnant?" No, how did he get there? No, how could he really be pregnant with a man? ”

Hiss...

This...

So evil?

Zheng Xiu chuckled in his heart.

Without waiting for Xi'er to talk about the cause and effect, Zheng Xiu's mind was racing and he quickly figured it out.

Jun Buxiao took the order to check on the eucalyptus, and he brought a helper.

It is better to say that it is a helper, but it is better to say that it is for demining.

He used to be acquainted with the hedgehog, so he called him.

Dou Qi was ignorant, thinking about a promotion and a salary increase to prove himself, so he went stupidly.

As soon as I went, I got pregnant.

"Don't you laugh?"

Xi'er: "He's smiling next to him!" ”

Zheng Xiu's face was expressionless: "Tell him that the person he took out is dead, and the pension will be deducted from his salary." ”

The laughter came to an abrupt end.

Xi'er Muran glanced back, and turned back: "He's crying!" ”

Jun Buxiao is a guy who recognizes money and people. He is not loyal to the old Lord of the Night, this kind of person is easy to use, but not very good.

Xi'er succinctly told the story of Mo Xu's pregnancy.

Sure enough, it was similar to Zheng Xiu's guess, Mo Yu didn't even know what the origin of the "Wutong Temple" was, so he confidently copied the book with his hands in his hand.

After he became pregnant, he cried and recited "Haoran Righteous Song", which was useless.

"What now?"

Xi'er didn't know what to do.

This is the first time she has encountered this kind of thing, what should a man do if he is pregnant? Xi'er was confused.

Zheng Xiu was not sure, and hesitated: "Born?" ”

Xi'er was dumbfounded: "Where did you give birth from?" Men don't have ......"

She was about to say that men don't have that, but after thinking about it carefully, her pretty face turned red, as if she insisted on saying that there were still some. I don't know what she remembered, and she gasped after blushing.
