Volume 1 Wisdom Fighting the Capital Chapter 101, Between Thoughts
On the twenty-sixth day of the first month of the seventy-first year of the Great Qiankang Yuan, at the right time, the south of Chang'an City.
The carriage was running all the way, and Mo Qiuyu, the "iron-faced beauty" in the car, looked at the two "stunners" in front of him who had been stunned by himself, and while admiring their seductive posture wantonly, he was already happy in his heart......
Ah Zhu and Ah Ju were originally the personal servants of Kang Youren, the eldest young man of the Kang family. In July last year, the eldest young man of the Nakang family was ordered by his father to go to Chang'an City to propose, he was worried that the journey was far away and the journey was lonely, so he secretly took two personal maidservants with him. Ah Zhu and Ah Ju grew up in Sichuan and Shu since childhood, and have long been yearning for the customs of the Central Plains.
The three of them went to Yunzhou Mansion, and their eldest young master, Kang Youren, insisted on going to join in the excitement of a "demon hunting conference". Unexpectedly, although Young Master Kang won the first battle by luck, he killed a master halfway, and was suddenly provoked by a young man in white who broke his tendons with a sword, and his martial arts were abolished. Nakang Youren was disheartened after escaping from the Demon Hunting Conference, but his father's fate was difficult to disobey, so he was properly cared for and cared for by Ah Zhu and Ah Ju all the way, and still accompanied him to Chang'an.
The "Xuanji" iron box used by the Kang family to propose relatives was accidentally left in the big boat. When he arrived at Tianbao Pavilion, Kang Youren searched all over his body and had nothing left, so he had to present the two white jade bottles he was carrying with him to Murong Yuanshan. When the Lord of Murong Pavilion heard that it contained the antidote to the strange poison "Seven Days Soul Devouring Dispersion", he was overjoyed, so he put the antidote into the Hundred Treasure Building to treasure it. However, regarding Kang Youren's proposal to marry him, Murong Yuanshan only politely refused......
Kang Youren was unwilling to return in vain, so he bought a house in Chang'an City to live in. Although his martial arts were abolished, after all, he was still the young master of Kangmen, in addition to the branches of Kangmen in Shuzhong from time to time to send people to send silver two items, there were also various sects in the rivers and lakes to curry favor. Kang Youren was generous and kind of words, and after a long time in Chang'an, he befriended some powerful sons in the capital, and later, he was attached to the high branch of the King of Chu.
Seeing that Kang Youren camped all day long, unwilling to return to Shu, Ah Zhu and Ah Ju lived in the house for a long time, and they were also very bored. Today, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Kang family to go out to run errands, the two sisters made an appointment to go to Balinyuan in the east of Chang'an City to enjoy the plums, and they didn't want to be tied up by Zhao Xiaogang and his gang to Zhao's mansion halfway.
Ah Zhu and Ah Ju tried their best to escape from Zhao Xiaogang's courtyard. But they never dreamed that they had just escaped from Zhao Xiaogang's "wolf's den", and in a blink of an eye, they fell into Mo Qiuyu's "tiger's mouth".
At this time, the sky was dark, the cold wind was tight, and there were already few people on Chang'an Street. Mo Qiuyu instructed the coachman to speed up the car, and after a while, the carriage arrived in front of a small courtyard in the south of the city, which was a stronghold he had secretly purchased in Chang'an City, specially set up for him to visit the capital regularly.
Mo Qiuyu's trip to Beijing was for the "Museum Appreciation Conference" of the Treasure Pavilion in the first three days of next month. He usually lives in Shuanghua Cave on Congyun Island, and from time to time he has to walk around, waiting for opportunities to hunt for beauty, and he especially likes to come to Chang'an City to play. At the end of every month, he has to come to Chang'an, firstly, because he wants to make more friends with his fellow scholars through the "Bo Appreciation Conference" of Tianbao Pavilion, and secondly, he naturally comes for his "old job......
Tonight, he Mo Qiuyu wanted to go to the famous Cuiyun Tower in Chang'an to see the victory of the Oiran, but unexpectedly, two young girls ran up halfway. When Mo Qiuyu saw that there was a "prey" that took the initiative to send it to the door, he was immediately overjoyed, and he secretly put strong sweat medicine in the kettle while he was talking. How could Ah Zhu and Ah Ju have expected that this river and lake would be so sinister?! They thought that they had already escaped the dangerous situation, but how could they have imagined that the real danger had just begun......
What awaits them is a nightmarish experience that they will never want to remember for the rest of their lives.
Mo Qiuyu's "secret stronghold" is very small, and there is only one small courtyard in total. For the sake of convenience, he did not hire a single servant in the whole house, and he did all the chores himself.
As soon as the carriage arrived outside the courtyard gate, Mo Qiuyu carefully carried Ah Zhu and Ah Ju into the courtyard. He paid twice the price of the car to the coachman, told the coachman not to talk to outsiders, and said a few words of intimidation, and the coachman took the money, and naturally nodded his head, and Nono went in succession.
Mo Qiuyu carried Ah Zhu and Ah Ju into his room, at this time the night was already dark, and the surrounding residents were already asleep. The whole small courtyard was silent, Mo Qiuyu looked at the two girls who were sleeping on the bed, and her heart rose for a while, where could she hold back?
All the people in the rivers and lakes have their own unique kung fu, or practice external skills, or cultivate internal qi, or practice fists, or practice legs and feet...... This Mo Qiuyu's cultivation is an extremely yin and yang method of collecting yin and supplementing yang. Once he captured the girl in the Shuanghua Cave on Congyun Island, he would often be fed various aphrodisiacs and drugs that blinded the mind...... Over time, after those girls were brutally destroyed, they would be reduced to emaciated faces, withered bodies and minds, and delirium......
That Mo Qiuyu was already in the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, because of the cultivation of this Yin Damage Adoption Kung Fu, he actually maintained his white skin and clear appearance, just like a scholar in his thirties. Therefore, the rivers and lakes gave him the nickname of "Iron Mask Meilangjun", "Meilangjun" needless to mention, this "Iron Mask" is a satire that his cultivation of kung fu is against the conscience of heaven.
At this moment, Mo Qiuyu rushed forward, and after the monkey hurriedly untied Ah Zhu and Ah Ju's wide clothes, he ravaged them wantonly...... This night, he used all his tricks, covering the clouds and rain, and tossed these two girls dozens of times......
Poor Ah Zhu and Ah Ju, who are very old, are the two first-class maids of Kangfu. According to the rules of Kangfu, the young master's personal maid, after the young master got married, was accepted as a concubine by the young master on the chosen day. Ran Kang Youren has not yet married a wife, so Ah Zhu and Ah Ju are still a yellow flower girl at this time.
......
At this time, their master, Kang Youren, didn't know that he was still there
's two personal servants are already trapped in a demon cave.
At this time, Kang Youren was still in the East Flower Pavilion of the Chu King's Mansion, standing solemnly on the side of the King of Chu, listening to the reprimand of Li Zhi, the King of Chu:
"Xiaokang, what's the matter with you! What did you give Lord Qin...... Thunderbolt Pearl, what's the use! All the men and horses sent by Lord Qin were lost in Xu Ke's hands, and there was no return!"
Kang Youren hurriedly replied: "Your Highness, Kang's thunderbolt and lightning bead is the most powerful secret weapon in my Kang Sect! As for why Lord Qin's subordinates went to no avail, perhaps...... Maybe there's another reason ......"
Li Zhi said dissatisfiedly: "What else is the reason? You just want to say that Lord Qin's subordinates are all waste! However, Xiaokang, this king can remember that yesterday you boasted to this king that you went to the sea in person, saying that with this thunderbolt pearl, Lord Qin only needs to send a few people out at will, and said that even if he has ten Xu Ke, he should be crushed...... Today, my people reported that Xu Ke is not only alive and well now, but also wandering around Chang'an City!"
Kang Youren hurriedly said: "Your Highness! Kang Mou thinks that the thunderbolt and lightning bead in my door is a secret weapon of the first rank in the world. He didn't work before, or he was a subordinate of Lord Qin, and he was not good at the method of secret weapons. It's better for me to do it myself tonight and go to meet that Xu Ke for a while...... Kang wanted to see who this person was! It made His Highness feel so troubled...... Your Highness, rest assured, this time, Kang will definitely live up to his mission!"
Li Zhi waved his hand and said: "Forget it! This Xu Ke is just a small hundred, and it is not the turn of this king to have a headache for him......! But it's someone else!"
Kang Youren took a step closer and asked, "Which guy who doesn't have long eyes is bothering His Highness about him?"
Li Zhi shook his head and said: "You have also seen this person, it is the Qianhu of the Bei'an Pingsi before, Sun Xun!"
Kang Youren said: "Master Sun, why is he ?......?"
Li Zhi waved his hand and said: "The middle of the situation is not explained to you by this king, at this time, that Sun Xun is being imprisoned in the edict of Tsing Yi Wei, well-off! This king has always valued your talent the most, you have a way......
As soon as Kang Youren's mind turned, he knew Li Zhi's intentions, and said: "Your Highness's intention is to make him Sun Xun never open his mouth from now on!"
Seeing Li Zhi nodding, Kang Youren thought for a while, and said:
"Your Highness, don't worry! Although Kang heard that the Tsing Yi Guard's edict was heavily defended, and it was difficult for even a fly to fly in, Kang thought of a way......
"Oh...... Tell me about it," Li Zhi said busily.
Kang Youren replied: "Your Highness, there is a poison in my Kangmen, called 'Sleeping Flower Pill', which is colorless and tasteless, and it melts in the mouth, ordinary people only need to take one pill, and they die violently, and their faces are safe when they die, like sleeping flowers, without any pain." His Royal Highness only needs to buy a person who delivers the meal and mix the sleeping flower pills into the rice, and Sun Xun only needs to eat a little bit, and he will unknowingly return to the west, and he will not see any signs of poisoning......"
Li Zhi said: "Hmm...... This plan is very wonderful! I can't imagine that your Shuzhong Kangmen really has some doorways, and there is such a powerful poison! Where is this medicine now?"
Kang Youren said: "In Xiao Ke's home, early tomorrow morning, Kang will be sent to the palace......"
Li Zhi smiled and said: "Well-off! This king really didn't mistake you, and after the matter is completed, this king will reward you well!"
Kang Youren hurriedly bowed his hand and said with a smile: "It is Kang's luck to be able to serve His Royal Highness!" Kang does not ask for any reward, but only wants to be able to follow His Highness for the rest ......of his life." At that time, with his means and the support of the entire Kangmen behind him, this great court's court will not become a place for him to call for wind and rain?
Li Zhi stepped forward, personally held Kang Youren's hand, and said with a smile: "Xiaokang, this king can meet a talent like you, and he is really happy! You do a good job! Don't worry, I need a young talent like you!"
......
After Kang Youren left, another person quietly walked into the Donghua Pavilion, it was Xiao Yihong, the secretary of the Criminal Department. Xiao Yihong looked at Kang Youren's distant back and asked Li Zhi:
"Your Highness, if it is done, does Your Highness really plan to reuse this person?"
"This person knows too much, after the matter is completed, you immediately send someone to ...... him" Li Zhi put his hand on his neck and made a head-killing motion.
"My subordinates understand!" However, it is rumored that this person is the eldest prince of the Kangmen in Shuzhong, and His Royal Highness is not afraid of him Kangmen......" Xiao Yihong said.
"It's ridiculous that the rivers and lakes are small! After I ascend the throne, I will issue a decree to eradicate all these gates and small gates! I will save them from knowing all day long that they will use poison and make me feel uneasy!" Li Zhi said angrily. He still has a layer of thought in his heart, your Kang family's poison is so powerful, if it is used on my head in the future, what will I do to deal with it?
Xiao Yihong said: "My subordinates will send people to follow his whereabouts...... Your Highness rest assured, once the matter is done, he will not live another hour!"
......
And almost at the same time as Kang Youren returned to his Judefang Kang house, a carriage stopped in front of the door of the Xu Mansion in Liquanfang, and a white-haired old man walked down from the car, holding a cane in his left hand, slowly walked to the vermilion lacquer gate of the Xu Mansion and knocked on the door knocker.
"Lord Qiu!" Dong Laifu, who opened the door, saw that it was Qiu Mingli who came to visit late at night, so he hurriedly welcomed him into the door, and diligently supported Qiu Mingli all the way through the corridor and courtyard, and came to the front of the Hazelly residence in the innermost part of the mansion.
Hearing Dong Laifu calling outside the hospital, Xu Ke hurriedly went out with Shu Hattian to welcome Qiu Mingli in.
Qiu Ming was entrusted by the King of Wei to come
Visiting Xu Ke, I heard that Xu Ke didn't go to duty all day today, and I was even more relieved in my heart, I came to visit with a starry night, to see how Xu Ke's injury was recovering......
Entering the center of Hazelly, Qiu Mingli saw that everyone was worried, and he couldn't help but be surprised, under his repeated questioning, Shu Hatian had to tell the truth about Xu Ke's remaining poison in detail.
There are still two residual poisons in Xu Ke's body, one of which is the world's most poisonous "Heding Red", and it is less than a day before the day of his death.
Before the arrival of Lili in Qiuming, Xu Ke, Hu Yiyi, and Shu Hattian hid in the middle of the hazel, and the three of them had been thinking hard for nearly an hour, but they still didn't have the slightest clue, and as for this antidote method, of course, they couldn't think about it.
Time is like a copper kettle dripping at the door, passing one by one, Hu Yiyi and Shu Hetian are anxious, only he Xu Ke himself, smiling calmly, also set up a small table of wine and food in the room, and pulled Hu Yiyi and Shu Hetian together to drink with him......
Although the time of death is getting closer and closer, the pain in Xu Ke's body is not as bad as before, in addition to not being able to operate the true qi on his own, walking and talking, Xu Ke is already like an ordinary person...... "Could it be that this is what the world calls 'returning to the light'?" Seeing this, Hu Yiyi was even more anxious, she watched Xu Ke sitting there, holding the wine in her glass, drinking one by one, hoping that time could stop at this time, so that Xu Ke would always be like this, smiling and drinking......
Now, the anxious, in addition to Hu Yiyi and Shu Hattian, there is another Qiu Ming ceremony, he saw Xu Ke sitting there, drinking the wine by himself, his heart was really sad, before he was still as warm as a spring day, but at this time it was like falling into an ice cellar, cold to the bone.
"Teacher, sit down! Don't worry about being sick, after tomorrow, you will not die if you are sick!" Xu Kewu smiled to himself, a handsome and pale face, but wandering in the warm and warm breath like a spring breeze.
"Ahem, there is no disease, so far you have not found a way to detoxify, how can you be sure that you will be fine tomorrow? Although the old man does not know medical science, he also knows that the poison of the crane top red is really the most poisonous in the world!" Qiu Mingli sat down and said worriedly.
Xu Ke poured a full glass of wine for Qiu Mingli, and said: "Teacher, don't worry, it is not that I will not die tomorrow, but that I will not die tomorrow, but Brother Li in the Xuandu Temple." The teacher is not in a hurry, first accompany the disease-free to drink a drink, maybe, this detoxification method can be delivered to the door in a while......"
Hu Yiyi, who was sitting next to her, had tears in her eyes. She said in her heart that I have been practicing medicine for many years, and who else can know the poison of the crane top red better than me? Now, you are already a reflection of the light, and in more than ten hours, unless it is Da Luo Jinxian who comes to the world to save him, otherwise, ...... If you are a little disease-free, you have ten lives, and you don't want to keep half of them!
Shu hattian kept shaking his head and sighing, he saw Xu Ke talking and laughing like this, so he was naturally not far behind, so he simply raised his wine glass and drank with Xu Ke non-stop. He shook his head while drinking, and secretly said that there is no disease, little brother, if you were a big demon. If the big demon is poisoned, at most he will scatter his cultivation and return to his original form, and his life will still be there after all, and he only needs to practice for a few hundred years, and the demon power will recover, and he can still turn into a human body.
"Li Zhenren of Xuandu Temple, have you ever figured out how to detoxify for you?" Qiu Mingli also took a sip of wine with Xu Ke and asked.
"This ...... But he never said," Xu Ke said.
"That bull-nosed old way, he can pretend to be a ghost when doing things, and the detoxification is only half of the solution, and he doesn't speak clearly! Really angry with my scholar! In my opinion, let's not run to his Taoist temple tonight and force him to tell the method of detoxification, if he still doesn't talk about it, my scholarly fairy will set fire and burn this stinky old peach forest!" Shu said with a snort.
"No, Brother Li has his own reasons for doing things, I'll just wait for a while...... Besides, Brother Li is a Taoist person, and his peach forest is not so easy to burn......" Xu Ke smiled at Shu Hattian. At this time, the three people beside him, for his sake, were eager to go to heaven and earth, and used all the methods to detoxify him. He himself just acted as if he was fine, as if the person who was poisoned was not him at all......
Everyone saw that Xu Ke only cared about drinking, talking and laughing, calmly, although they were worried, but there was no other way for a while, so they all lowered their heads and drank with him.
"I don't know what happened to Brother Junxian? I explained Ding Chunqiu's matter yesterday, and I don't know if he did it? The No. 16 cell where he lives, but I have to ......change him quickly," Xu Ke said to himself. At this time, he suddenly remembered Li Junxian in the prison, how much pain and torture Junxian had suffered in the prison! When I saw him yesterday, he could still talk and smile as usual, and pick up a broken bowl to scrape his bones and get rid of maggots! This strong and loyal mind, this calm and calm courage, but I don't know how many times better than himself?!......
"Ding Chunqiu has done a good job and has already changed a cell for Li Junxian. Right now, in cell No. 16, it's the ghost-faced Sun Xun who is locked up......" Qiu Mingli replied casually. He just went to Tsing Yi Wei today, and it was Ding Chunqiu who received him, so he naturally knew something about the situation here.
"Sun Xun, Sun Xun has already been arrested?...... So, the mastermind of the assassination of Qincha at the mouth of the West Gorge this time is also his Sun Xun?" Hu Yiyi suddenly asked. Since Xu Ke rescued her from the Sixiang Cangxu, Xu Ke also explained to her how he was attacked at the mouth of the West Gorge and how he was poisoned. Hu Yiyi's mind is so shrewd, at this time, when he heard Qiu Mingli's casual words, he immediately guessed the clue.
However, the one who really assassinated Chin Cha should be the mastermind behind the scenes. Tyumen replied.
"There is!" Hu Yiyi suddenly stroked his palm and smiled: "The little disease-free poison can be saved!"
