Chapter 198: Relic
"You read it to me, I can't read cursive. Xu Qi'an pushed it back again.
Xu Xinnian's face froze, and he looked at him stunned: "Since that's the case, why do you want me to write it?"
Because I'm in a bad mood today.......... Xu Qi'an urged: "Don't waste, let you read it, the eldest brother is like a father, my words are useless?"
Xu Xinnian muttered a few times, vaguely greeted the eldest brother's family, and then grabbed the rice paper and read it.
"Wait!"
When reading a certain paragraph, Xu Qi'an suddenly stopped.
He snatched the rice paper, stared at it, and asked as he looked at it: "What's going on with this conversation, and what about the follow-up? ”
Xu Erlang nodded: "There is no follow-up in the living record, it should have been modified at the beginning." Well, what's wrong with this conversation?"
He couldn't hide his curiosity and looked at his eldest brother, in Xu Erlang's opinion, this conversation was unremarkable, just a conversation between the first emperor and the head of the previous generation of sects and immortals.
Talking about immortality with Taoist masters is like chatting with Confucianism about classics, which is extremely ordinary.
Xu Qi'an didn't answer him, he thought about himself, diverged his thoughts from this conversation, and developed associations.
Those who have been ordained by heaven since ancient times have not survived forever, can the method of immortality of the Daomen solve this limit........
It can be seen from this sentence that the first emperor knew that those who were blessed with luck could not live forever.
Longevity is possible, but longevity is not.........
The "longevity" said by the head of the previous sect should mean prolonging life, and the longevity of the second half of the sentence is the longevity that Emperor Yuanjing is looking for.
One gasification and three clearing, one of the three, or three of the three......... Eh, what does this sentence mean, did the first emperor ask casually, or did he have another deep meaning?
With doubts, Xu Qi'an continued to let the little brother read it.
But there are no other suspicious leads.
"Erlang, you have to speed up the progress, and within three days, write down all the contents of the Emperor's Living Record for your eldest brother. You remember to hide and don't let the people of Hanlin find out that you are doing this. Let's secretly investigate and must not leak it, otherwise it will cause great trouble. ”
Out of the intuition of the old criminal policeman, Xu Qi'an thought that Emperor Yuan Jing's obsession with cultivation might have something to do with the first emperor.
In fact, the core suspicion of this case is very simple, since the emperor cannot live forever, why should Emperor Yuan Jing cultivate!
Solve this doubt, and the truth will be revealed.
Emperor Yuan Jing is not a fool, even the saints of the super grade, the ancestor of the martial arts and the martial arts are unable to live forever, without a certain certainty, or if he sees some kind of hope, it is impossible for Emperor Yuan Jing to indulge in cultivation.
"Hmm. Xu Erlang nodded, and then said:
"Recently, I heard about something in the court, there is a war in the north, do you know it, big brother. ”
"War in the north?" Xu Qi'an was taken aback.
On the same day, he tore the queen of Zhenbei, took advantage of the serious injury of Jili Zhigu, and took advantage of the Shenshu monk to open a matchless, deliberately chased out of Chuzhou City, and beheaded this three-grade barbarian beside the official road.
The purpose is to make the northern barbarians suffer a great loss of vitality, and the dragons have no leader. In this way, the barbarian tribes alone compete for the position of new leader, which is enough to be chaotic for a while.
It is no longer possible to disturb the northern border.
And the northern barbarians and the demon clan are in the same breath, and it is impossible for the northern demon clan to take the opportunity to encroach on the barbarians, which will only aggravate the internal friction.
"Witch God Sect?!" Xu Qi'an blurted out.
"The Witch God Cult took the opportunity to attack the northern demon barbarian territory and wanted to invade the demon barbarian territory. This is bad news for us Dafeng. Xu Erlang said.
"How's the battle going?" asked Xu Qi'an.
"I don't know the specifics, but I've heard that the demons are retreating. Xu Erlang showed a serious look and said, "I heard that the general who led the troops of the Wushen Sect is the king of Yasukuni - Xiahou Yushu. ”
Who is this.......... Xu Qi'an was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly recalled the file of the Shanhaiguan Battle.
Xiahou Yushu, the king of Yasui, commanded the Yasukuni army in the Battle of Shanhaiguan 20 years ago, attacked for three days and three nights, and cut off Dafeng's grain and grass supply line on the eve of the decisive battle.
Caught Wei Yuan off guard, it was also the closest the allied forces of all parties came to victory, and they were only close to rewriting history.
Dafeng has a very high opinion of the king of Yasukuni, believing that he is second only to Wei Yuan as a handsome talent, especially in overall planning and overall situation.
In terms of leadership ability alone, Xiahou Yushu is even stronger than King Zhenbei.
The Northeast is vast, vast and sparsely populated, and the three kingdoms are powerful, namely Yasukuni, Kangguo, and Yanguo.
All three countries believe in witch gods, and witch gods are the state religions of the three northeastern countries. There, the theocracy reigned supreme and the imperial power came second, similar to the hierarchical structure of the Western Regions.
The Three Kingdoms of the Northeast only cultivated two systems, the wizard system and the martial arts system.
"Hey, Duke Wei once said that after the autumn harvest, the Witch God Sect will be defeated, and now, the Witch God Sect has invaded the territory of the northern demon barbarians, and Dafeng is likely to send troops.......... This, where is this so coincidental. I don't believe that Wei Gong can predict the prophet to this point, he wants to fight the Witch God Sect, there must be other purposes. ”
Xu Qi'an frowned secretly.
I don't know why, he has a feeling that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.
.............
Late at night, the full moon hangs high.
The cold moonlight sprinkled on the lush mountain forest, and the night birds flapped their wings and let out a terrible cry in the forest.
A stuffle of green smoke curled in the moonlight, swept through the woods, over the peaks, over the lakes and rivers, and finally reached a cave, into which it was burrowed.
After a long time, Qingyan came to a cave valley, where the cold moonlight shone down from the top, and the valley in the cave was full of bright moon flowers.
The stones build a high platform, and the vines wrap around it, and the flowers bloom on it, and together they create a "flower platform".
The stone chair on the stage was covered with fluffy snow-white fox fur, and a young woman of peerless elegance sat lazily, holding her head with one hand, and looked at the green face returning from thousands of mountains and rivers with a smile.
Qingyan transformed into a woman who was not real enough, with a graceful posture and a charming temperament, but her face was blurry.
"Master, I'm back. ”
The woman gave the gift.
"Six years have passed in the blink of an eye, you have done a good job, and when you were sent to the capital, it was originally for the seal under Sangbo. ”
The beautiful woman on the stone chair had a soft voice, she bent her legs, her skirt slid down, revealing two long legs like white pythons, and said with a smile:
"I saw you write back and say that I fell in love with a man, so I didn't urge you to come back, and I tolerated you for half a year, but the world is in love, and now there are still worries in the capital?"
The woman bowed her head and did not answer.
The woman on the stone chair, with a pair of seductive fox eyes, squinted, and said with a smile:
"Tut-tut, the floating fragrance of the Oiran is famous all over the world, it's really beautiful, have you forgotten your name......... Yahime. ”
"Yahime didn't dare. Fuxiang is the daughter of a criminal minister, who died of illness six years ago, and Yehime is just a dove occupying the magpie's nest and using her body to do things. Yahime is always loyal to her master. ”
"What if one day, I let you kill Xu Qi'an. The woman on the stone chair looked narrow, but her tone was cold.
The woman was shocked, Ying Ying fell to her knees, and said in a wailing voice: "Nashu Yeji can no longer serve the master, please give the master death." ”
The woman on the stone chair sat up straight and giggled, "Naughty, you know that I can't kill you." Didn't you always want to know what I would do with Xu Qi'an.
"I scattered your nine sisters all over Kyushu that day, and I said that if you could fall in love with the same man, he would be my future husband, the king of the kingdom of demons.
"In addition to you, there is another girl who is also in love with him. ”
Ye Ji Huo Ran raised his head, a little surprised and a little jealous: "Yes, who is it?"
The princess of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom smiled, beautiful and moving, and did not answer Yehime's words, but said: "You will cultivate here for a while, and I will reshape your body for you."
"Next, there's a new quest for you to do. ”
...........
Early morning.
Tianji and Tianshu led their subordinate spies, rode horses, and rushed to Baifeng Mountain in the western suburbs.
The huge torii arch reads "Qinglong Temple", and the winding stone steps extend deep into the jungle to the magnificent temple at the top of the mountain.
Leaving a few people to watch over the horses, Tianji and Tianshu climbed the stairs and entered the temple.
After the disciple passed the word, the two Tianzi secret agents met the host of Qinglong Temple, the monk Panshu.
The old monk hung his white beard to his chest, his eyebrows were kind, he sat in the meditation room, and said with a pleasant face: "Two adults, what is the matter to come to our temple." ”
Tianji took out a folded portrait from his arms, unfolded it, and said, "Can the Panshu host recognize this person?"
The monk in the portrait has a national face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and rough facial features, which is the monk Hengyuan.
"Amitabha. ”
The Panshu monk clasped his hands together and said, "He is Hengyuan, the apprentice of the poor monk. ”
Tianji and Tianshu glanced at each other, their eyes flashed, Tianji's body leaned forward slightly, and stared at the Panshu monk: "This person can be in the temple?"
The monk shook his head: "This person has been away from the temple for more than two years, that year, another disciple of the poor monk, Henghui, disappeared, and his whereabouts are unknown.
"Any disciple in the temple can testify to this, and if you don't believe it, you will know it by asking. ”
Tianji bowed: "Youlao presided over the convening of disciples." ”
After inquiring about the disciples in the temple and getting a unified answer, Tianji and Tianshu left the temple and walked side by side on the stone steps down the mountain.
Tianji said slowly: "More than two years ago, Henghui of Qinglong Temple eloped with the county lord of Pingyang and was assassinated by the Liang Party. Later, Xu Qi'an investigated the Sangbo case and found out this old incident. ”
Tianshu said "um": "The monk in the temple said that Hengyuan's popularity in the temple was very poor, and he never came back after going down the mountain. It is highly likely that he has left the capital. ”
Tianji pondered for a moment and said: "The monk in the temple said that this person is nosy, then, he has been in the capital for two years, and he will always leave traces, and there will be no fewer people who know him. ”
.............
Xufu, breakfast time.
Lina drinks porridge: tons and tons.
Drinking porridge with diced beans: tons and tons of hiccup.......
Others drank porridge and ate vegetables slowly.
Second Uncle Xu grinned while stroking the Taiping Knife.
The aunt said angrily: "I know how to touch the knife all day long, and you sleep well with the knife." ”
"Okay. Second Uncle Xu said, looking at his nephew.
"Okay. Xu Qi'an nodded, "Taiping, you accompany the second uncle more." ”
The aunt yelled angrily: "Uncle and nephew don't have any good things." ”
She turned to look at her son and said, "Erlang, how are you and that Miss Wang." ”
"Why are you talking about this......." Xu Erlang said with some twists.
"Haven't you been to Wang's house, then do we also want to invite other girls to come to the house to sit, although my Xu family is not a scholarly family, but it is also a person who knows the number of etiquette, you go and invite her to come to the house as a guest." ”
The aunt pinched the style of the housewife.
Auntie, if you want to say that, then I have to buy melon seeds in advance.......... Xu Qi'an was in good spirits.
"This is not in line with the courtesy, I invited her to come to the house, the name is not right. Xu Erlang pierced his mother's half-hung level.
"In my name, invite Miss Wang to come to the house to sit down, and it will be polite. Xu Lingyue said softly.
Xu Erlang thought for a while and said, "Okay." ”
Xu Qi'an continued: "Then set a time, don't delay it too long, and finally in the next few days." ”
When the aunt heard this, she couldn't help but look at her nephew: "Da Lang is so enthusiastic. ”
I'm not enthusiastic, I can't wait to see you being beaten by your future daughter-in-law........... Xu Qian said that he felt that the boring investigation career finally had some fun.
Then, he looked at Xu Lingyue again.
Is Wang Simu beating her future mother-in-law, or is her sister-in-law riding a horse to fight her sister-in-law and save her mother from danger?
This is not more interesting than the opera of the hook column.
"I, who is the eldest brother, naturally have to care about Erlang's marriage. Erlang's marriage is decided, and Lingyue's marriage is on the agenda. Xu Qi'an said matter-of-factly.
Xu Lingyue lowered her head, and her beautiful eyes flashed.
"Yes!" said the aunt.
After finishing breakfast, Xu Qi'an returned to the room and looked at Zhong Li, who was sitting at the table eating.
The messy black hair parted slightly, revealing a small cherry mouth, squirming slightly like a rabbit gnawing on a radish.
Although I have never seen Zhong Li's face, the eyes or lips that occasionally show can be seen to be a beauty with quite delicate facial features.
"Go, go, I'm going to write a memo. ”
Xu Qi'an kicked her away from the desk.
Zhong Li hugged the bowl and squatted on the side of the bed to continue eating.
"This morning, I practiced "Yi", as soon as possible to blend all kinds of unique learning in one sword, heaven and earth one knife slash + heart sword + lion's roar + Taiping knife, I have a hunch, when I cultivate "Yi", I will be vertical and horizontal in the realm of four products.
"I went on a date with Lin'an in the afternoon, and the day before yesterday, I "accidentally" touched Lin'an's small waist, which was so soft. ”
"I can't stay at home tomorrow, I have to sleep with the surviving person, and I have to take her out to go shopping and go out to surf. ”
"The day after tomorrow morning, I went to Huaiqing Mansion to see my goddess of coldness, and I didn't snub her, I haven't chatted with her for a long time, and talking to a knowledgeable beauty is a desirable thing.
In the afternoon, I promised Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao to listen to the music. The Workshop Division, alas, is not going to the Workshop Division. ”
"The day after tomorrow, I promised Li Miaozhen to buy food and give porridge, this stupid woman, I told her, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish. But the stupid woman said, "What can you teach a man to fish?" I was speechless.
"In the afternoon, take Lina, Cai Wei and Xiao Douding to the restaurant for a ........ and a ."
"Then I have to go to sleep with the ......... who are not dead."
Writing this, Xu Qi'an felt that something was wrong.
Hey, what's my business?
At the end of the memo, he wrote: "Xu Qi'an, Xu Qi'an, you can't linger around women all day long and ignore business. ”
After a few seconds, he crossed out the sentence and changed it to: "I need a copy of Master Luo's Time Management." ”
After writing the memo with great melancholy, he looked at Zhong Li, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed and practicing after breakfast, and said in his heart that it was better for the fifth senior sister to stay quietly in the fish pond.
Neither be a demon, nor delay you from doing your right thing.
At this time, the porter Lao Zhang ran over and said at the door: "Da Lang, someone is looking for you." ”
When Xu Qi'an heard this, he responded: "Who?"
"It's a girl, who calls herself Mei'er. ”
Mei'er, the personal maid of the floating fragrance........ Xu Qi'an was silent for a moment and said, "Lead her to the outer hall, and I'll go over." ”
He tucked the memo in the book and told Zhong Li: "Don't peek." ”
Zhong Li nodded obediently.
Leaving the room, through the inner courtyard, and into the outer hall, he saw the fair-eyed Mei'er sitting on the edge of the chair, straightening her waist and sitting upright, as if she was a little nervous.
There was a small cloth bag on the coffee table at hand.
"Mer. ”
Xu Qi'an stepped into the inner hall, pressed his hand towards the girl who stood up in a panic, and said softly, "Is there any trouble?" ”
Unlike before, Mei'er dressed quite plainly, with a plain face, far less than the showy dress she wore when she was in Yingmei Pavilion.
He speculated that Mei'er might have been bullied at the Workshop Division.
Xu Yinluo ....... No, Xu Gongzi. ”
Mei'er shook her head and said, "I'm no longer in the Sect Division, and before the Floating Fragrance Lady left, she left some of her savings to me and let me use them to redeem myself." I plan to go back to my hometown to serve my parents. Then, find an honest man to marry. ”
Hell, what kind of evil did honest people do, why do they do this even to other worlds......... Xu Qi'an smiled gently, "So, you're here to say goodbye to me?"
It's good to be good, Fuxiang has a heart, I hope she's okay now.
Mei'er shook her head again: "Before the fragrance lady leaves, there are a few things for me to pass on to you." ”
Xu Qi'an's pupils contracted slightly.
