On the second day, Du Buyi and Xia Zihan wrapped the calligraphy and paintings together and came to the outside of He Sheng's mansion.

After knocking on the door a few times, no one came to open it.

Du Buyi felt that something was wrong, and quickly pulled Xia Zihan to jump in from outside the fence on the side, and after investigating inside, he found that there was no one.

Seeing this, the two hurriedly came out and asked the neighbors, only to know that after He Sheng came back last night, he took Yingshu and Yingqin to leave here at night and went out of the city.

Du Buyi said to Xia Zihan on the side at this time:

"This He Sheng actually took Yingshu and Yingqin to leave at night, there must be some conspiracy!"

On the side, Xia Zihan replied:

"I think he must know the secret of this painting, thinking that it was painted in the hands of Yingshu and Yingqin, so he took them and left!"

Du didn't forget to smile and said:

"Zihan, you think the same as I think, but unfortunately Yingshu and Yingqin are not stupid, they have already secretly given us the painting!"

Zihan replied:

"Exactly!"

Then he said:

"Let's go back to Li Fuda first and ask about the situation, after all, now that Maitreya disciples are all over the world, he is so familiar with He Sheng, he must also know He Sheng's whereabouts!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Then let's go back to Li Fuda!"

Then the two of them went back to Li Fuda's mansion.

At this time, Li Fuda was processing the official documents, and when he saw Du Bucheng and Xia Zihan coming back, he asked:

"Brother Du, what's wrong with you?"

Du did not forget to tell Li Fuda about the situation just now, and Li Fuda was also shocked, so he immediately said to the two:

"I didn't expect this He Sheng to be this kind of person!"

Then he immediately called a few disciples and began to go out to find out He Sheng's whereabouts, and then found the Taiyuan prefect to start wanting He Sheng.

How do you know that two days have passed, and there is still no whereabouts of He Sheng, Du and Xia Zihan had to say goodbye to Li Fuda in a hurry, and went out of the city to find the whereabouts of He Sheng.

After the two of them inquired around outside the city, there was still no trace of He Sheng, and Du Sheng couldn't help but think that since He Sheng was a subordinate of Wang Qiong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, why didn't he often look for Wang Qiong, not to mention that he was not guilty now.

The two of them went back to the city to buy horses and prepare to go to Beijing.

Who knew that at this time, Xia Zihan actually began to spit blood in his mouth, and Du did not forget to take Xia Zihan to Lang Zhong for diagnosis and treatment, only to hear Lang Zhong quietly say to Du Zhong:

"Your wife has been poisoned into the viscera, there is no cure, prepare for the future!"

Du was taken aback for a moment, and quickly asked again:

"My wife has been poisoned, is there really no cure?"

Lang Zhong said:

"Your wife is already heavily poisoned by the elixir, and she could have lived for an extra year and a half, but recently coupled with the fatigue of running around, the toxin has been emitted faster, and it is estimated that she will be able to last for about a week!"

Du did not forget to hurriedly ask again:

"Lang Zhong, I know you must have a way to save my wife, you can help, I can give you whatever you want!"

Lang Zhong replied:

"As a Langzhong, I also hope to save people's lives, but it's a pity that your wife has no skills to return to heaven!"

Then he walked out.

Seeing this, Du Bu couldn't help but think of Doctor Li, so he immediately went into the house and hugged Xia Zihan and said:

"Zihan, let's go to Qizhou now to find Doctor Li!"

Then he hugged Xia Zihan to the horse and drove the horse to Qizhou.

A few days later, when he arrived at the Yellow River, Du Buyi went to fetch water for Xia Zihan to drink, but when he came back after receiving the water, he found that Zihan was gone, and Du Buyi shouted Xia Zihan's name loudly around, but there was no news.

After a while, Du Bu came back and was about to ride a horse to find it, but when he got on the horse, he found that a letter paper had fallen, and when he opened the letter, it turned out to be written by Xia Zihan, only to see that it was written:

"Xianggong, I am my greatest happiness to meet you in this life, in fact, I already knew that my life was short, but I don't want to tell you, I'm afraid that you will be sad, I hope you don't blame me, I have actually done so many things to be sorry for you, I feel uncomfortable, since I am leaving this world, I don't want to be able to go to a place where there is no one when I leave, I don't want to be disturbed, I hope you can understand me, Mrs. Xia Zihan is not a pen. ”

Du did not forget to shed tears and shouted a few words to the Yellow River at this time:

"Zihan... Why are you doing this... Why...!"

Then he fainted directly on the edge of the Yellow River.

The next day, Du Buyi woke up and found himself lying in a fisherman's house, when a child under the age of six came over with a bowl of fish soup, put it in front of Du Buyi, and said:

"Uncle, my mother asked me to bring you fish soup to drink to replenish your body!"

Let's go out.

Du Bu Bu was a little weak at this time, so he sat down for a while and didn't sit up, when a woman walked in from outside the room and said to Du Bu Bu Fu:

"Childe, you should have been on the road for a few days without resting, your body is still very weak, why don't you drink fish soup!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Thank you, auntie, but I still want to go to my wife!"

Then the woman said,

"Your wife you are talking about, is it the corpse of the woman who was fished from the Yellow River yesterday?"

Du did not forget to hurriedly ask:

"Was my wife saved by you?"

The woman replied:

"It's said that it's a female corpse, what else can I save it!"

Du did not forget to remember, and always felt that he had no strength, so he said to the woman:

"Auntie, can you help me go and see the female corpse?"

The woman replied:

"Okay, but now someone is preparing to bury the woman's corpse, I don't know if I can see it now!"

Then he helped Du Yixin out of the door, and went to the direction of the river, and it didn't take long to arrive at a forest by the river, at this time several big men were digging a pit, and there was a corpse next to it!

Du did not forget to take a closer look from a distance, these clothes were exactly what Zihan looked like before he left, and quickly asked the woman to help herself to come to the corpse, and then confirmed the corpse, sure enough, it was Xia Zihan's, so he hugged the corpse and cried bitterly.

After the woman had spoken a few words to the men, they dug holes, put down their hoes, and left.

After Du Bu Chu cried for a while, the woman came over and said to Du Bu:

"People die greatly, let her be buried as soon as possible!"

Du did not forget to ask:

"I don't know what my aunt's last name is?"

The woman replied:

"My name is Chen, and my husband has gone out to fish, so I am alone at home with the children!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"It turned out to be Aunt Chen, thank you!"

Then he and Aunt Chen pushed Xia Zihan down into the pit, and when he saw that Aunt Chen wanted to help cover the soil, he didn't forget it, and grabbed the soil and buried it slowly.

It wasn't until dark that Xia Zihan's grave was piled up and a wooden sign was erected.

After staying at Aunt Chen's house for two days, Du Bu Bu recovered, and then said goodbye to Aunt Chen and thanked him, then rode back to Jingshi again.

Due to the loss of Zihan, Du did not forget that he was still listless all the way, and after arriving at a restaurant on the side of the road, he ordered a few pots of wine and drank it.

At this time, five people appeared on the table next to him, and Du did not forget to take a closer look, these five people were actually the five tigers of Monan.

The eldest of the five tigers, Wuwawu'er, seemed to have discovered Du Buyi, so after saying a few words to the other four tigers, he walked over to Du Buyi's table.

Du did not forget that he was half drunk at this time, so he looked at Wawu'er and said:

"You Tatars actually dare to come to the territory of Daming, don't you want to live?"

Vul replied:

"Boy, don't think that you are still Zhu Ming's general, we are not afraid of you!"

Du didn't forget to take a big sip and said again:

"You don't care if I'm a general or not, I just can't get used to you Tatars!"

Wawu'er turned her head and said to the eldest brother Mu Zhen beside her:

"Big brother, this kid is drunk, and people seem to be crazy, should we do him?"

Brother Mu Zhen replied:

"I think he's quite talented, Zhu Ming won't use him anyway, why don't we catch him and go back to Altan Khan!"

The other Sanhu also said at this time:

"It's still the eldest brother who is wise!"

Then the five of them surrounded Du Bu Bu together, and Du Bu Bu didn't bother to resist, so he was tied up by the five of them and went north.

Unexpectedly, these five tigers were so bold that they came to a house in the capital directly in Han clothes, and after the five tigers locked Du Buyi in the room, they went out.

At this time, Du did not forget to sink for a few days, and began to wake up, at this time he saw that his burden and sword were on the side, and then he carried Zhang Tianshi's mental method, hoping to get rid of this rope, but this rope was Tie Hu'er's weapon, so he didn't break free.

Du didn't forget to think of the Dharma Mind again, so he tried it, it seemed to work, and then he swam this Dharma Mind set in the body a few times, and suddenly felt a lot of strength, so he broke away from the rope, and then breathed a long sigh of relief, carried the burden, took the sword and prepared to leave.

As soon as I went out, I found that the five tigers were talking with a priest not far away, and if you look closely, isn't this Taoist priest Shao Yuanjie?

Du did not forget to find a secret place close to listen quietly.

I only heard Brother Mu Zhen say to Shao Yuanjie:

"Shao Guoshi, didn't you promise us Altan Khan to reduce the garrison in Xuanfu and Datong?"

Shao Yuanjie replied:

"I did promise you to reduce the number of troops and horses in the two towns, but now the governor Hu Hu stationed in Xuanfu and Datong has repeatedly resisted the holy will, and he has a heavy army, and His Majesty does not dare to do anything with him for a while, wait, I will persuade Your Majesty to withdraw him if I have the chance!"

Brother Mu Zhen replied:

"That's good, I hope that the national teacher will do it quickly at this time, after all, our Altan Khan's subordinates will be short of food at the end of every year, if Hu Hu hasn't withdrawn at the end of the year, Shao Guoshi, you can do it yourself!"

Shao Yuanjie replied:

"Definitely, tomorrow is the mid-year festival on July 15, when I sacrifice for Your Majesty, play some tricks, and then frame Hu Hu in the direction of Datong in the northwest, saying that he is the person of His Majesty, Your Majesty must be furious, and this Hu Hu will definitely die at that time!"

Vul laughed at this time, and said:

"Shao Guoshi, you are really clever, I hope you can succeed tomorrow!"

Shao Yuanjie stroked his beard and smiled, and said:

"Your Majesty really didn't fully trust Poor Dao before, but now he believes in Poor Dao more and more, so the five generals can rest assured!"
