"Then thank you, hall master. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info" Shen Du said.

Chen Pojun nodded, and then said: "It's dark at night, I'll find a place for you to rest, come with me." ”

After that, he led Shen Du through the mansion, and soon arrived at a small courtyard.

Although this small courtyard is not very large, it is also quite exquisitely furnished. There is a willow tree in the yard, swaying slightly with the wind, half an acre of square pond in front of the tree, and the water waves are lightly. Several huts are attached to the courtyard wall and stand together compactly.

"This is the place used by the gang to entertain guests, and it is cleaned up, so you can stay here first. Chen Pojun pointed to the rooms, turned his head and said to Shen Du.

Chen Pojun looked at the sky and said, "Tomorrow morning, someone will come to call you." I estimate that it will be dawn in two hours, you should rest early, although escorting bluestone is an easy job, but you also need to cultivate your spirit. ”

Shen Du had no objection, and after saying goodbye to Chen Pojun at the moment, he went directly into the house.

The interior of the house is simply furnished, except for the necessary living utensils, but there is not too much decoration. After Shen Du entered the bedroom, he washed up for a while, then undressed and lay down on the bed.

With his arms on his back, he couldn't help but exhale deeply.

A few hours ago, he was in prison and sighed, but now he is free and has joined a gang.

Thinking about what happened this night, Shen Du was still in a trance.

He is now out of prison, which is a happy event. But the road ahead is vast, which makes Shen Du hesitate in his heart.

Although his studies were complicated, under the influence of his master, he was inevitably a little deviant. But no matter what, Shen Du is a scholar after all, and joining the Hongbang is just an expedient measure, not a lifelong career.

Lying on the bed, Shen Du's mind relaxed, and he couldn't help but think about it.

Decades ago, a vision fell from the sky, and nine stars were aligned. Such a strange thing is simply unheard of, unheard of. It is the neighboring powerhouse Zhao State, and the whole country is panicked and the people's hearts are in turmoil, not to mention the Song State, which has been weak for a long time.

The heavens were revealed, and there were rebellions and strife in several places. Among them, there are even some rebels who use human flesh for military rations, and their barbaric acts are heinous.

People think that the troubled times are coming, and they are all in danger.

It was only not long after the first emperor ascended the throne, and with the assistance of Wu Anjun Shen Beiwang, he pacified the turmoil in all directions, and made great efforts to govern the country, and the Song government and the opposition gradually restored stability.

Just when people thought that the Song Kingdom was going to prosper, twenty years ago, Wu Anjun died of illness, and soon the queen died in childbirth. Since then, the first emperor's temperament has changed greatly, he often kills heroes, has no intention of government, and even drove the west after making the court into a miasma.

The current emperor is just a teenager, and he is stubborn by nature. And the queen mother, in addition to being rumored to be good at competing for favor, she is not enlightened.

It is because now that the court of the Great Song Dynasty is in turmoil, and the little emperor is embarrassed by the big responsibility, it is inevitable that the scholars will have the vision of supporting the government.

Shen Du also thought about making meritorious contributions, so that his name would go down in history and be famous for centuries. But now that he is a fugitive, this matter is full of difficulties, and he is quite overwhelmed.

Wu Anjun once strayed into the rebels due to military rebellion. After the rebels were defeated, he was arrested as a slave for ten years. In the past ten years, Shen Beiwang studied hard in secret, and won the top prize with a fake certificate, but he was convicted of cheating and imprisoned. It wasn't until he was appreciated by the first emperor who was King Yu by chance that he had the opportunity to show his skills.

Shen Du also used Wu Anjun's example to motivate himself, but this is obviously a bit ridiculous. Not to mention anything else, Wu Anjun was imprisoned in Song Jingtian Prison back then, and he was just locked up in a prison cell in a county town, so how could he be appreciated by the prince and the powerful.

Moreover, he is now a fugitive from the "crime plus one degree".

After thinking about it like this for a long time, he still had no clue what the future would be. I was depressed, shook my head, and rested.

Suddenly, Shen Du's brows moved, as if he remembered something.

He reached out and touched it in his arms, and then took out the aqua blue jade.

From this exquisite and transparent blue jade, the gentle and powerful power continues to come, penetrating deep into the limbs and internal organs, nourishing people's hearts and spirits.

Under the influence of this strange force, Shen Du was energetic and refreshed almost all the time, even if he didn't sleep tonight, he wouldn't feel half tired tomorrow.

That alone is staggering. As for the origin of this blue jade, and whether it has other magical functions, Shen Du does not know.

"What kind of chance could such a strange thing be?" he thought to himself.

......

Let's say that since Shen Du and Chen Pojun escaped from prison, the prison has been very empty, the jailers have long disappeared, and the prisoners are even more corpses everywhere.

The long night is not over, and the stars and moon are hazy.

The already dim prison was filled with blood-stained air, and it became more and more gloomy.

Suddenly, two faint rays of light flashed.

As soon as the brilliance was closed, the two figures appeared. A man in his thirties, with an ethereal temperament, wears a gray robe. A bald young man in an indigo robe, with a hooked nose and gloomy eyes.

"Zhou Cheng, what's going on?" The gray-robed man looked at the corpses all over the ground, his expression was cold at the moment, his eyes were slightly angry, and he glanced at the bald young man.

Zhou Cheng's face trembled, and he hurriedly said: "Seniors are angry, these are just mortals, and it doesn't matter if they are dead or alive." The junior will go and fetch the remaining small piece of the best spirit stone. ”

When the gray-robed man heard this, his expression eased slightly.

"It's a shame that you Shuiyuanmen still claim to be a combination of Buddhism and Taoism, and this corpse is everywhere, and you don't even recite some scriptures. He snorted, mocking.

Zhou Cheng laughed dryly: "What kind of Buddhism and Taoism are combined, it's just some self-righteous nonsense of some old guys." Except for a bald head and occasional recitation of Buddhist scriptures, there is no difference between him and Taoism. Besides, the younger generation is no longer a person from Shuiyuanmen. ”

After a pause, he arched his hand again and said with a sneer: "After this incident, the juniors will also be members of the Qingling Sect, and I will ask the seniors to take care of them at that time." ”

"Alright, go quickly, the benefits will definitely be yours. The gray-robed man waved his hand impatiently. This Zhou Cheng betrayed his master and was brazen, if he hadn't given the sect a very precious top-grade spirit stone, and privately allowed him a small piece, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to this person at all.

"Junior, this is over. ”

Zhou Cheng walked a few steps to a cell, and then pushed the door in.

The gray-robed man stood in place, silent, for a moment.

"It's gone!" Zhou Cheng seemed to be shocked and suddenly called.

The gray-robed man's expression changed greatly, and he saw the light on his body flash suddenly, and then his figure stepped out, and he entered the cell in an instant.

Zhou Cheng stood in the corner of the wall, looking at the broken hole in the wall, his face pale.

"Zhou Cheng, the best water spirit stone is not something that your cultivation can monopolize, don't play any tricks on me. The gray-robed man said coldly.

When Zhou Cheng heard this, he hurriedly said: "The younger generation knows it in his heart. Since he has promised his seniors, how dare the younger generations break their promises. It's just that I sealed that thing into the wall with fossilism, and unless I have a high-grade water path foundation, no mortal will be able to detect it. ”

"There is no one in ten thousand who bears the Dao Foundation, and most of them are already monks, and the high-grade Dao Foundation is even rarer, how can it be such a coincidence?" said the gray-robed man.

When Zhou Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but sweat coldly, and his mind turned sharply.

"It must have been Shui Yuanmen's doing!" After a while, he seemed to think of something, his eyes flashed, and then he turned his head and said, "Yes!
