In the past few days of contact, Zhang Yan has learned about this girl, whose name is Nangong Ying. If it is redundant, Zhang Yan doesn't know.

The name was told to Zhang by Nangong Ying, and she also asked who Zhang Zanan was again, but, of course, Zhang Zhan still didn't tell her.

Nangong Ying doesn't have much time every day, she receives swordsmanship training here from Zhang Zhan, which can be called three days of fishing and two days of drying nets. Later, Zhang Chuan said that according to her cultivation time, it would be impossible for her to make any great progress and breakthrough in sword skills. In that case, simply don't practice swords.

But Nangong Ying disagreed.

She told Zhang Zan, come to Zhang Zan, if Zhang Zan's sword practice doesn't accompany her, she will just be in a daze. Anyway, it's all to kill time, so it's better to let Zhang Chuan point out the shortcomings in her martial arts. In the long run, even if her martial arts have not made much progress, at least she has some more experience.

Experience is indeed important, so Zhang Zhan has no objections. After all, it would be too unkind to eat other people's people and live in other people's houses, and they can't meet people's requirements at all.

Moreover, pointing out Nangong Ying's swordsmanship was not without harvest for Zhang Zhan.

In the past, Zhang Yan practiced swords for the sake of his swordsmanship.

Now to guide Nangong Ying, what Zhang Zhan needs to do is not only words, but more examples. People who have ink in their stomachs don't necessarily know how to pour it out.

What Zhang Chuan is doing now is to shoulder the responsibilities that a "teacher" must master - preaching, teaching, and solving doubts.

For example, we all know that one plus one equals two. But we seldom think about why one plus one equals two.

Therefore, in the process of guiding Nangong Ying, Zhang Yan not only had to tell Nangong Ying how to practice this sword move, but he also had to tell Nangong Ying why this sword move must be practiced like this! If the action does not meet the standard, what advantages and disadvantages it will have, and what kind of opportunities it will bring to the opponent, and so on.

In short, in the process of "education", Zhang Zhan has a deeper understanding and understanding of kendo.

In the nearly month since he stayed in Nangong's house, Zhang Yan has spent the purest and cleanest period of his life with the purest and cleanest kendo perception.

He couldn't hear, he couldn't see, and certainly didn't know what was going on in the outside world.

In the beginning, he was also very sad, very bored, very anxious. But he also knows that in his current state, it is one thing to teach people swordsmanship, and it is another thing to work hard with others.

The reason is very simple, that is, Zhang Remnant's internal force is missing, and the dantian is almost dry, and he can't gather qi.

Then when encountering a master of internal and external double cultivation, Zhang Chuan will naturally be vulnerable.

Therefore, after completely facing up to his own situation, Zhang Zai really let go completely, isolating everything from the outside world, leaving only the wooden sword in his hand (he had a move with Nangong Ying, and in order to prevent accidents, both of them changed to wooden swords).

At this point in the afternoon yesterday, Nangong Ying did not come to this back garden. Now that it's this time period again, Nangong Ying still hasn't appeared.

Zhang Yan had no intention of waiting any longer, and was ready to settle down by himself.

He wasn't worried about what happened to Nangong Ying, because she seemed to be really busy, and every once in a while, she would "skip class", and Zhang Yan was used to it.

Then before the action was implemented, Zhang Yan smelled the rich and fragrant body fragrance on Nangong Ying's body.

"Will you go out with me?"

This is the tone of negotiation.

Because now, Nangong Ying seems to really regard Zhang Zhan as her half master, and her attitude towards Zhang Zhan has also become respectful, and it is no longer the kind of cooperative relationship of "I help you heal your injuries and you help protect me".

Zhang Yan nodded.

To Zhang Yan's surprise, he thought that what Nangong Ying said about "going out" meant being in or outside Jingzhou City. It wasn't until someone helped Zhang Remnant into the carriage that Zhang Remnant realized that maybe this time it was a long trip.

This is not a deception, it can only be said that the understanding is wrong, and Zhang Chuan will not feel "deceived" for these little things.

There are about twenty people in the group, don't ask Zhang Zanqi what he knows, because he has said more than once that Zhang Zan's nose is now very smart, and he can distinguish all kinds of body odors with a light sniff.

The speed of travel is not fast, and Zhang Zhan has no idea where the destination of this trip is, and he is not curious. He is like a goose with a dull head, let this carriage take him, even if he goes to the ends of the earth, it seems that it has nothing to do with Zhang Remnant.

He never stopped to rest all the way, until at night, Zhang Yan smelled the fresh smell of nature and was invited off the carriage.

After a while, Nangong Ying personally came to Zhang Yan's side with the medicinal soup.

Zhang Yan quietly wrote on the ground: "Who is the third young man on the right hand now?"

This question is actually not difficult to answer, but Nangong Ying took a long time before answering: "It's Situ Zheng, the eldest son of the Situ family." ”

"That's it?"

After a long while, Nangong Ying replied: "He is also my husband who is married." ”

Then Nangong Ying asked again: "Why do you only ask him?"

Zhang Yan was also silent for a moment, and then wrote on the ground: "His position in your heart is very important?"

At this time, Nangong Ying replied quickly: "He and I are childhood sweethearts, and he takes good care of me." ”

In fact, this is a very euphemistic way to tell Zhang Chuan that she herself is very satisfied with Situ Zheng and has a good impression.

"Why are you curious about him?"

This sentence made Zhang Zan's not know how to answer for a while, and after thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Zan's writing: "His martial arts are quite good, I can sense it." ”

In fact, the truth is that the person who was preparing to assassinate Nangong Ying on that big tree that day was Situ Zheng, who had always taken good care of her.

But at least for now, Zhang Yan really doesn't want to tell her the truth. In order to prevent her from continuing to ask, Zhang Yan wrote: "Where are we going this time?"

"Go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Wanjin Chamber of Commerce. ”

Zhang Yan nodded and didn't say anything more.

"After the matter here is over, I will send you to the Medicine King Valley. ”

Well, we all know that the course of Chinese medicine is long and the effect is slow. But his body was crippled, and he could naturally perceive that with the current prescription, he could only maintain himself from deteriorating. Moreover, this maintenance is not unlimited, but it only suppresses the fire poison of the true dragon's blood for a short time.

The so-called blockage is better than sparse.

When the medicinal power of this prescription is adapted by one's own body, when this medicinal power is adapted to the fire poison of the true dragon's blood, at that time, the fire poison will attack again, and it will be unprecedentedly violent. In fact, that means that Zhang Remnant's life has really come to an end.

"How much time do I have?"

When Zhang Yan asked this sentence, he actually felt a little strange. Imagine that the old man who has passed the sixtieth birthday for so many years and is over the age of old is still in this world. And when I was young, I had to ask myself "how long is it", which is both a realistic and helpless question.

With a light hand, Nangong Ying held Zhang Yan's "scorched black" big hand.

From her warmth, Zhang Yan felt undisguised pity.

Zhang Yan couldn't stand this, shook his head with a smile, and swallowed the medicinal soup directly.

"Lang Zhong said, you still have two months. ”

Zhang Yan nodded, but didn't take it to heart. However, Nangong Ying didn't know what Zhang Remnant was thinking, she thought that Zhang Remnant was sad and desperate, so she gently squeezed Zhang Remnant's big hand with that warm softness.

Zhang Yan reacted and smiled at her.

Then Zhang Yan's heart moved, and he wrote: "The Wanjin Chamber of Commerce is looking for you, do you want to borrow gold?"

"How do you know?"

Shangguan Ai told Zhang Chuan at the time that in order to prepare for the long-term war, the Jin State opened his mouth and demanded millions of gold from the Great Song Dynasty before retreating from Xiangyang City.

The Great Song Dynasty definitely does not have so much financial resources, and it has always been the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce that has paid for the compensation for the Great Song Dynasty's land cession. So now, Da Song must have handed over this hot potato to the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce again.

And now, it seems that even the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce can't afford this huge amount of money, and Old Man Mu can only pull down his old face and ask for help from big families in various places.

Speaking of which, if the Great Song Dynasty did not have the support of so many Jianghu forces, I am afraid that it would have been annexed by the Jin State long ago. But this is understandable, because I would rather die than be a slave to the country, and if the country is broken, the family will die, this kind of lip-to-tooth relationship, as long as people are not stupid, they can understand this simple and simple truth.

It took about three days of walking to reach the destination.

The headquarters of Wanjin Chamber of Commerce is located in Suzhou.

Speaking of Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, we have to mention its president, Mu Changxuan, Old Man Mu.

When Old Man Mu was young, he was actually a gangster who did all kinds of evil and was domineering. With a kitchen knife, he made a little bit of fame in the struggle of the underworld forces in the north of Suzhou.

Then he overcame all the obstacles all the way, and in the cracks of the major gangs, he developed his power to one of the largest in Suzhou in just a few years.

Subsequently, the old man Mu sang all the way forward, which can be described as a "siege of the city", Mu Changxuan's fierce name, there is no place where he is not frightened.

It is said that there was a governor at that time, because he touched the interests of Old Man Mu, and was secretly killed by Old Man Mu.

You know, it's the governor! It represents the majesty of the Son of Heaven!

Both the government and the opposition were shocked, but later, it was over.

Quite simply, because a few decades ago, the Jin State and the Great Song Dynasty were in constant conflict, and the war especially burned money. So it was at that time that Old Man Mu got on the "thief ship" of the Great Song Dynasty.

The upside is that it's also a rare opportunity to whitewash.

Anyway, since then, Old Man Mu has been even more powerful, creating a myth that belongs to him, and also establishing a business empire headed by him.

Speaking of which, the first half of Old Man Mu's life was full of a lot of illegal violence, abduction and prostitution and other unsightly transactions that everyone and God were angry about. But now, no one cares. It's not that he doesn't dare to care about it because of his great power, it's just that his contribution to the Great Song Dynasty is more prominent, and he covers up his past evil deeds.

Well, since the whitewashing, Old Man Mu has also been committed to good deeds and has done a lot of good deeds for the benefit of the people.

To put it bluntly, behind which man of the hour, there is nothing unseemly.

After being settled, Zhang Remnant stayed in the house and did not move an inch.

During this period, another Lang Zhong diagnosed Zhang's pulse and prescribed a similar prescription.

In fact, now, Zhang Yan feels that he is stealing the sky, and every minute he lives is a special favor and gift from God.

Since Nangong Ying came to the Wanli Chamber of Commerce, she has obviously been a lot busy, and she has not appeared in front of Zhang Yan for several days. It should have been at noon on the fifth day that Zhang Yan smelled the rich and fragrant body fragrance on her body.

Zhang Zan's sudden rise seemed to startle Nangong Ying, and then Zhang Zan's words quickly wrote: "You are poisoned!

Nangong Ying touched Zhang Yan's small hand, and she froze.

Zhang Yan wrote again: "Find another person, let me see if you are poisoned, or if all the people of the Nangong family are poisoned." ”

It was soon confirmed that only Nangong Ying was poisoned.

"Where have you been in the past few days, and who have you been in contact with?"

Nangong Ying told Zhang Chuan that the heads of several families have been gathering together for meetings in the past few days, and she has no chance to contact outsiders.

The so-called meeting, Zhang Yan doesn't need to think about it.

Since these families want to fund the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, they will definitely not give away the wealth in their hands so freely, and they will definitely take the opportunity to win certain interests and benefits.

Otherwise, it is just a funded "meeting", so why drag it out until now?

"Tell me the names of all the people I have come into contact with. ”

Anyway, after the names of seven or eight famous parties came out one by one, Nangong Ying finally wrote Situ Zheng again.

Coincidentally, at this time, Lang Zhong was also summoned.

After waiting for a long time, after Lang Zhong left, Zhang Yan wrote: "What do you say?"

"It's not a big deal. ”

Zhang Yan couldn't help but laugh, and wrote: "Your hands are shaking so much, it's okay?"

There was silence for a while, and then Zhang Yan clearly felt that Nangong Ying's fingertips were a little cold: "Lang Zhong said that this is a chronic poison that he has never seen before, and he can't cure it." ”

In fact, Zhang Zhan had already concluded that only Situ Zheng could poison Nangong Ying.

So he wrote: "Don't worry. I'll help you find the antidote. ”

"Thank you. ”

Nangong Ying replied with these two words.

Zhang Yan patted her hand gently, hoping to bring her a little encouragement and comfort.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Nangong Ying held Zhang Zhan again and gestured a few words: "It's Situ Zheng, right?"

Nangong Ying is not a fool, she was a little surprised from the time Zhang Chuan deliberately asked Situ Zheng about his strangeness that day. And now, apart from the people who participated in the meeting, she has only been in contact with Situ Zheng. Then, wouldn't the person who could poison her come to light out.

"Not necessarily. I'll wait until I'm sure. ”

What else can Zhang Yan do, he can only answer like this.

"From now on, he and I will break off. ”

I can't see it, but Nangong Ying has extraordinary decisiveness. Because Zhang Yan sensed that when she wrote these words, she was calm and categorical.
