This is strange, Xiao Yan smiled, he couldn't imagine that a person with such a strong temperament as King Zhang would be so docile in front of a woman who was powerless—

He looked at the saber that split the floor and sighed, what a thing!

The food was served, there was no excessive luxury, a pot of wine, a pot of rice, four dishes and one soup, two meat and two vegetables, just like the usual diet of a hundred-acre family, it was not unusual.

This made Qi Zehui, who had just recovered from his recovery, quite dissatisfied, and while stuffing the meat into his mouth, he muttered: "What the is the prince? Even a county order has more fish than him!"

Xiao Yan smiled and told him about Fang Cai's affairs, Qi Zehui immediately stood up from the dining table, and said with emotion: "Hero! This is the legend, woman, don't let that have any eyebrows! Hey, I really want to learn two tricks from that girl, and see if I can bluff this guy who kills the god and possesses the body!"

"Do you want to borrow a pair of scissors from Hades when you are reincarnated in your next life!"

"Fuck you!, come on, have a drink!"

The two laughed in front of a room full of soldiers, not at all like two prisoners, but really like guests invited to a banquet.

Xu Bo, who had been silent on the side, saw all this in his eyes, and his gaze towards Xiao Qi and the others suddenly changed slightly.

Having eaten and drunk, the two leaned back on their chairs in the hall and burped comfortably. Qi Zehui crossed Erlang's legs and hummed a tune, watching the servants clean up the dishes. Xiao Yan was sitting in a daze.

"Dare to ask the two little brothers, where are they from?" Xu Bo suddenly came to the two of them and asked.

"The Third Crown Prince of the Dragon King of the East China Sea!" Qi Zehui shouted through the wine.

"Uncle, don't listen to his nonsense," Xiao Yan smiled bitterly, "We are both ordinary people. ”

"The identity is ordinary, but the courage is not ordinary!" Xu Bo said with a smile, "The old man has been in charge of this Zhang Wang's Mansion for more than ten years, and he has seen all kinds of people, but you are the first person who dares to talk to His Highness like this." ”

"Uncle, are you sure this is the prince's palace? Why do I think this place is not as good as a broken county office?" Qi Zehui said with some disdain.

"King Zhang's temperament is upright and strong, and he doesn't like wealth and power. In this border land, the turmoil has not stopped, and it has only gotten better since His Highness sat down. But if there is any surplus goods and food, His Highness will distribute them to the poor and disaster victims—there is not a single person in Dali who does not say that King Zhang is good......" Xu Bo sighed.

Qi Zehui was silent, although King Zhang looked a little murderous, but he was silent and had been doing good things for the country and the people. He fought bloodily when the country needed it, and he settled in a corner when the border was peaceful, and in the end—he looked up at the quaint and humble house—because of a word of advice, he was wasted and ended up being treated like this, and even his family name was stripped of it.

"Fuck the Emperor... Woo!" Xiao Yan hurriedly covered Qi Zehui's mouth.

Xu Bo's eyes showed a hint of appreciation: "I can see that you two are good children with true temperament, how can you end up in such a field?"

Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, but still told the matter one by one, but under the guidance of Qi Zehui's eyes, he hid the reason for the two of them to flee, and only said that they were "going out to travel".

After hearing this, Uncle Xu looked thoughtful, and then smiled: "You were found by His Highness in the cottage, naturally there was a slight misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstanding, he wanted to cut me twice!" Qi Zehui said with palpitations as he looked at the sword marks left on the floor.

Xu Bo smiled slightly, got up and took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the side, and said, "The two little brothers will write first, and I will explain to His Royal Highness when the old man is done!"

Xiao Yan took the pen and paper, Xu Bo arched his hand and turned around to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Xiao Yan: "Uncle, there is one more thing that the junior wants you to give me some advice." ”

"Hmm, please, the old man knows everything. ”

"What is hidden in this map?" Xiao Yan was a little nervous, and then said: "The junior is just curious, if it's inconvenient to say, it doesn't matter." ”

"You look at King Zhang, it's definitely not for money and martial arts secrets, right? I guess it's information about the invasion of foreign races in the Western Regions, right?"

"No," Xu Bo sighed, "it's for a medical book." ”

"Medical book?" "What's the matter? Studying martial arts can't save the people of the Central Plains, so he wants to change his career to be Langzhong?"

"It's okay to tell the two of you, it's not a secret," Xu Bo said, "The woman who was with His Highness before, both of you also saw it, right?"

"Woman?" Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said: "His Royal Highness King Mo Feizhang insisted on asking for a book to save that woman?"

"Yes, exactly. Xu Bo nodded, "That woman is the princess, half a year ago, the princess strayed into a swamp in the valley of the mountains when she went out to play, and she took too much miasma and was poisoned, and since then she has become weaker and weaker, and her body is getting worse day by day. In less than three months, it was difficult to walk. His Royal Highness was so anxious that he sought medical treatment everywhere, but no one could cure him, only saying that time was running out, so His Highness was ready for the future. ”

"Two months ago, when His Royal Highness was in despair, news came from Luzhou that a group of gold touchers accidentally found a piece of leather paper in an ancient tomb, which actually recorded the whereabouts of a long-lost ancient book - "Shennong's Materia Medica"!"

"That, old man, what are you talking about, what is it?" Qi Zehui said curiously.

"Shennong's Materia Medica", the legend is that the Nine Heavens Xuannu passed to the Yellow Emperor, the Yellow Emperor passed to the Shennong clan, and then passed down from generation to generation by the Shennong clan in the Eastern Han Dynasty to write a strange book that can be 'life and death, flesh and bones', which originally recorded 1,095 kinds of prescriptions, and then lost more than half of them due to war, natural disasters and various factors, leaving only 365 kinds. Xu Bo did not look angry because of Qi Zehui's words.

"Oh, I see, King Zhang wants to save his wife by finding this medical book handed down by the gods!" Qi Zehui clapped his hands and said.

"Yes, but after thousands of years, that piece of leather paper has already become brittle and decaying, and those tomb robbers who touched the gold took advantage of the damage of the leather paper to copy down the things recorded on it one by one, this is the paper you burned earlier," Xu Bo said with a wry smile, "As soon as this piece of paper appeared on the rivers and lakes, it immediately caused an uproar, and it was unearthed for only half a month, and hundreds of lives have already been implicated! His Royal Highness has been tossing and turning for many days, painstakingly, and finally found this map from the Tang Gate!"

"Fuck that's it, we both burned his wife's life-saving thing, no wonder he was so angry!"

"It's you, not the two of us!" Xiao Yan said angrily, and then he asked Uncle Xu again: "But, since it is a medical book that is useless for a layman, why do so many people rush to ask for it, or even die because of it?" Tang Sect, Tang Sect seems to be the number one secret weapon sect in the world, how can you want this?"

"It's not that simple," Xu Bo's eyes became more and more solemn, "because the last 180 squares of the Shennong Materia Medica" are all deadly poison prescriptions!

Xiao Yan and Qi Zehui felt a chill in their hearts, no wonder so many people fought for it! Even a gangster who didn't know martial arts would become a martial arts overlord as long as he got that book!

Although Tang Men is the first secret weapon, it is also a good hand at poisoning, with those ancient recipes, wouldn't it be even more powerful!

"However, in order to get that map, our Highness agreed to the condition that all the poison recipes be distributed to the Tang Sect......" Xu Bo said in a low voice, "Now in our mansion, there will soon be many masters sent by the Tang Sect to assist in treasure exploration!"

"What, give it to the Tang Sect, aren't you afraid that something will happen?" Qi Zehui exclaimed.

"Shhh......hh

Xu Bo made a "click" movement on his neck.

Qi Zehui hurriedly covered his mouth.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it, let's write it first, I'll go see Your Highness. Xu Bo waved his hand and strode out.

"I've always felt like we're really in big trouble. Xiao Yan let out a long sigh, and the premonition of uneasiness in his heart became stronger.

"Don't mess with anyone, if you can't write it, we'll have to be chopped up tonight!

"Okay!" Xiao Yan said no more, held the pen and dyed the ink, and began to scribble on the white paper.

Qi Zehui stared intently on the side. After a while, he suddenly said:

"Hey, although I can't read calligraphy and painting, I can obviously feel that your writing is too awkward, right?" "Uh-"

Writing and painting and practicing martial arts are the same, you can see clearly, you can hear clearly, you know how it should be, but in your hands, it is not that taste.

The same is true for Xiao Yan, even if he remembers the whole picture clearly, it is really difficult for him to draw it himself.

But the stakes are so high that he doesn't dare to make mistakes, in order to reduce the deviation, Xiao Yan spent more than three hours, and only half of it was done crookedly. The lamp oil has been added again and again, and Qi Zehui's snoring beside him is also higher than a mountain, Xiao Yan rubbed his red and swollen eyes, raised his head and looked at the sleepy armor and the tired Xu Bo in the room, and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Xu, the big guy's body can't hold it, just go back first, I'll be here myself." ”

"Hmm...... It's okay, I'm next door, old man, if you have anything, just call me!"

"Okay, let's go and rest first!"

Everyone yawned and moved to their feet, and the room was filled with the crackling sound of muscles and bones.

When everyone dispersed, Xiao Yan pulled in the lamp and began to paint carefully.

It was like a painstaking practice, and after another two hours, the map was successfully reproduced.

Xiao Yan carefully proofread it twice, and after confirming that it was correct, he curled up on the chair and fell asleep with peace of mind.

The trees want to be quiet, and the wind does not stop.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Xiao Yan woke up. He stretched out in satisfaction, and subconsciously touched the map, but it was empty.

The drawings are long gone.

He screamed, and he didn't have time to wake up Qi Zehui, who was still sleeping on the side, pushed open the door of the hall and rushed out-

The smell of blood was thick on my face. In the courtyard, which was simple and clean yesterday, it was now full of corpses and messes. As far as the eye could see, a thin layer of blood scabs was condensed.

Hu Ji turned his back to the hall and stood alone in the misty courtyard with a halberd, like a door god. There were several very conspicuous wounds on the thin plain clothes.

Hearing the door slam open, he turned, revealing tired cheeks and bloodshot eyes.

"Fig... Fig... The picture is gone!" Xiao Yan stammered anxiously again.

Hu Ji took out an object from his waist without saying a word, which was the picture that was a little crooked. However, by this time, it was already tattered and bloodstained, and the contents were unrecognizable.

"How... What's going on?"

"There are ghosts in the house, and the rumors have long been leaked, and these people are here to seize the map. Last night, the two of you slept like dead pigs, not to mention taking away a piece of paper, even wiping your neck is afraid that it will be easy!" Hu Ji's tone was very flat, and he couldn't tell that he was mocking at all.

"Big... What about everyone, where is Uncle Xu, what about the guards?" Xiao Yan looked at the corpses of the night clothes all over the ground, and there were several royal armor soldiers, and his heart suddenly became afraid, and he hurriedly asked.

"In the inner room, protect the princess. ”

"That'...... And your Highness, are you here?"

"Protect you. Hu Ji's tone was still flat.

A breeze blew, driving the hair strands of the two, and a subtle atmosphere suddenly spread between the two.

"Ahem," Xiao Yan coughed dryly, breaking the silence: "That... Shall I draw another one?"

"No need. Hu Ji threw the drawing to the ground, lifted his foot and crushed it into a paste:

"Soon, everyone in the world will know that this picture is ruined, in your mind. If you draw another one, not only will it cause more trouble, but you will not even be able to save your own life!"

"Then, what should I do?" Xiao Yan knew that the trouble he had a premonition had already happened.

"Follow this king," Hu Ji pointed the halberd at him sharply, "Let's go to Kunlun to learn the scriptures!"
