286 The Soul Returns to Him (2)

Jun Li took a breath and reluctantly said, "It's a middle and lower hexagram, and the hexagram indicates that people are in the northeast or northwest, but I'm afraid it ...... Not easy to find......"

"It seems that you also know how to interpret hexagrams. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "The Taoist priest on the other side," but ...... It is a bit self-deceptive to say that the 'middle and lower' hexagram is not false, and it can be regarded as a 'lower and lower' hexagram, and if you want to find someone, you may be disappointed. It's not necessarily that you can't find it, but you're afraid that you can't find it, but people can't help but have some damage......"

He coughed, embarrassed to continue. Jun Li had no words. If he were the one who explained the hexagram, he would probably have the same idea, but now how dare he tell himself that the "innocent" disaster has really fallen on Shen Fengming?

He shook his head, "We may have some differences in the interpretation of the hexagrams. This is true, because in the past, I never broke too hard about the evil hexagram. No matter what kind of evil phenomenon it is, he feels that there is a way to save it - for example, the hexagram when Okra was about to go to the forbidden city, although it seems to be extremely dangerous, but looking back today, it may not be possible to say that everything is "down".

He returned the hexagram. But even if it is "middle and lower", "no vain" is still not a good thing - even the sharp can be heard. "Let's go to the docks and ask. Ling Li said, "If you still can't find out the news, you have to follow the hexagram and go to the barren mountains in the north to find it." ”

The two soon arrived near the docks. From here, get on the boat at the wharf, go downstream along the river, go as far as the coastal Tongzhou, and the brave can also cross the river to the other side. Although there are often Jin people in Jiangbei, there are still many Song residents, and they have long been accustomed to doing business with each other, even when the war is raging, it has not been completely broken, not to mention that the situation is quite stable now. As soon as a small boat docked, it was surrounded by people, and apparently there were merchants on the opposite side.

In a crowded place, near the avenue, there were two beggars who were prostrate and begging for food. Everyone was in a hurry, and they didn't pay attention to it, but Ling Li and Jun Li were used to walking the rivers and lakes, and they would not miss the slightest detail, and they had swept the two of them at a glance. Jun Li's footsteps suddenly stopped—the beggar was holding a stone in his hand, and he was drawing something on the ground. He looked at it from afar—the painting seemed familiar, and he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a moment.

Ling Li also frowned, "This pattern is a bit strange. ”

"That's right—that's right!" Jun Li was so excited that he was almost speechless, "The secret of the Black Bamboo Society!"

On the way south with Xia Zheng before, Shen Fengming once said that he had heard some common secret notes of the Black Bamboo Society. All the way south, the people led by the "Shuangyu" of the Black Bamboo Society had another special method of contact, and what they learned had never come in handy, but today they saw it here. These secret methods must have only been used in recent years, and Ling Li left early, although he could see that it was a little strange, but he didn't know that it was the mark of the Black Bamboo Society.

Seeing that this beggar did not look like a person with martial arts, Jun Li stepped forward, threw two copper coins into his bowl, and said, "Is this what someone asked you to draw?"

The beggar said, "Do you know? Someone gave me money and told me to draw when I have time." ”

"Who is it, what does it look like?" Jun Li asked.

"Just a young man, I can't remember what he looks like, the youngest one is very young, less than twenty years old. The beggar said.

"Less than twenty years old, that ...... It's not him anymore. Jun Li was disappointed and glanced at Ling Li.

Ling Li said, "When did that person come?"

The beggar said, "It's just morning, and it won't be two hours." ”

Jun Li looked at it head-on, got up and said to Ling Li: "This mark should be a hint of the direction for the latecomers, and it refers to the east." I think it's a message left by the people of the Black Bamboo Club to their partners. He thought to himself that Feng Ming had agreed with me to make a special mark, and if it was a trace he had left, he would not use this method that was not sure whether I remembered it or not. But since it is about Heizhu, it is not completely unrelated to him. Then he said: "That hexagram says that he went to the northeast or northwest, and here he points to the east - it is not completely contradictory, let's chase it and see?"

Ling nodded sharply. "That's what I mean. Since the people have not been gone for long, they may soon be able to catch up. ”

After deciding to chase after them, the two did not stay any longer, so they rushed east. Sure enough, I saw another inscription at the east entrance of the town, which was also recorded to the east.

Out of the town, it was a mountain road after a short time. The two of them ran for a while, along the fork in the road, and they had the intention to find it with the secret memory of the black bamboo club, and they always found directions in hidden places. But soon after noon, the sky changed, and the ink clouds crawled all over the bright gaps in the forest in a flash, covering the entire road ahead in pitch black.

Seeing that the rainstorm was coming, the two had no choice but to take a break from a simple tea shed passing by. There weren't many people in the shed, and the candle flame hadn't had time to be lit, and in the darkness, Jun Li only felt that this scene was familiar—as if he had met okra at the same time last year.

But he didn't have time to sigh more. He had already seen a rough-clothed young man sitting in the corner, and his hands and feet looked somewhat like a martial arts practitioner. Calculate the footsteps, if the black bamboo club boy who left a secret mark is not running in a hurry, he should almost catch up. He and Ling Li glanced at each other, and they already understood. Ling Li sat down, and Jun Li walked straight to the young man.

The young man seemed to be more full of worries than him, and when Jun Li approached, he didn't realize that the water in the teacup in front of him was still full, and he didn't have the heart to drink it, he didn't know what he was thinking, but he just sighed for a long time.

"This little brother. Jun Li spoke, and the young man looked up in surprise. Jun Li had already touched Shen Fengming's jade buckle in the palm of his hand, and waited for the opportunity to show him, but unexpectedly, the young man stood up and said first: "You are Jun...... Daoist Junli?"

Jun Li was a little surprised. "Do you recognize me?"

"I've seen the Taoist chief at the meeting of the three branches in Dongting!" The young man seemed to be extremely excited when he saw that it was him, and his eyes turned red, "Dao Chief...... Dao Chang is a friend of Brother Shen, right?"

Jun Li had already sensed some clues, so he didn't shy away from saying, "Yes, I'm looking for Feng Ming, do you have any news of him?"

The young man couldn't stop crying, "Dao Chief...... It would be nice if the Dao Leader had come earlier, Brother Shen...... He was poisoned, and I am afraid that he will ...... Fierce and auspicious, less ......!"

Jun Li felt a chill in his heart, "Where is he, you take me to see him first." ”

He ...... He's not here, it's a few of my companions who sent him to Chenzhou, and he should have crossed the river by now!" the young man said.

Chenzhou - in the northwest of this place. Jun Li said silently in his heart. If that hexagram is really true, then those "unjustified" words are also inescapable?

"What are you doing in Chenzhou?" Jun Li said. He only knew that near Chenzhou, there was the helm of the Black Bamboo Society.

It took a while for the boy to explain. It turned out that he was really a person in the Black Bamboo Society, and since that day there was a change in the wind meeting, he left Lin'an, and a few good companions heard about the Dongting Lake meeting, so they also came to join in the fun, and they were extremely surprised to see Shen Fengming and Jun Li at the meeting, and they were not a problem. Because they heard that Ling Li was going to return to Lin'an to preside over the Black Bamboo Society, several people were also happy in their hearts, and after taking the boat to Yuezhou, they immediately set off eastward and returned to Lin'an, which was a day earlier than Junli and his party. It's just that they took different paths, last night they stayed in that bustling town, and when they got up early in the morning, they heard someone say that there was a "dead body" at the foot of the mountain near the town, and they rushed to see the excitement, and only then did they see Shen Fengming, who was dying.

"Brother Shen, he...... He was poisoned. The young man's eyes were frightened, "He must have fallen down the mountain road due to a poisonous attack, and his body was full of injuries, but I don't know what the poison was, the blood that flowed out of his wounds...... That...... The blood was blackened, and his face was blackened, and I ...... If it weren't for the fact that we all knew him very well in the past, how would we still recognize him!"

The boy said, holding back his strength so that he didn't cry again. "He was cold, and we thought he was dead, but he ...... He was only unconscious, probably because we carried him, and he sensed that someone was dazed, and he said that we should send him 'home'. When we see that he is alive, we do not know whether we are happy or sad, because we ...... Except for some trauma medicine that we can apply to him, the rest is helpless at all. Now everyone knows Brother Shen's name, but he is poisoned like this, others naturally can't recognize him, and we don't dare to say anything, just say that it is our friend, and drive away those who watched the excitement. Nor is it ...... It's not that we don't want to treat Brother Shen and find a doctor to see, but ...... But a few of us have seen a lot of knowledge in the rivers and lakes, can we still be saved, we ...... We also ...... in our hearts You understand everything!"

Even if this young man didn't say that, Jun Li already understood it in his heart. Although he didn't know how Shen Fengming detoxified okra, the poison was like this, it was obviously the poison of the Nether Frog. Okra was good, of course, but everything turned out to be just a change of person to bear, and he wanted to change someone to worry about it - he didn't want okra to suffer like this, but at least okra was still in front of him at that time, and he could at least see and hear it. And what about Shen Fengming? He didn't even know his whereabouts, he couldn't even see his situation!

"Do you think the 'home' he said should be the helmsman of the Black Bamboo Society near Chenzhou, so you sent him over there?"

"'Home'...... Everyone is a black bamboo who came without a home, Brother Shen said before, Heizhu is our home, he ...... He must also be on the verge of leaving, and if he wants to go back, we will always help him but he wishes. However, we ...... At first, I didn't know whether to send him to Chenzhou or Lin'an. I asked, and I said, 'Brother Shen, where are you going back?' and Brother Shen said, 'Luoyang' -- he ...... He was already ...... by then It's hard to be clear, and we think he should want to say 'Huaiyang', that is, Chenzhou. I wanted everyone to send him together, but ...... But...... But we are really worried about Ling Li's son going back to Lin'an, I am afraid that this time I will miss something in Lin'an, so we have to ask a few of them to send Brother Shen to go, and I will go to Lin'an alone, pay attention to the news for them, and leave marks with them all the way. ”

Ling Li, who had been sitting a little farther away, suddenly stood up, approached the table, and said, "Did you hear clearly, did he say that it was indeed 'Luoyang'?"
