Golden Summoner

The table is full of exquisite food cooked in the imperial kitchen, delicacies from the mountains and seas. The rice cooked on the table is short and round. The rice is round and shiny in the bowl, like pearls. When you eat it in your mouth, the rice is soft and smooth, not thick but not thick. Sticky, with a strong rice aroma, you can really eat it without getting tired of it.

"Where does this rice come from?" Xia Ping'an didn't eat the food. Instead, after taking two bites of rice, he directly asked the maid serving beside him.

"Guan family, this is Magu rice, also known as Yinzhu rice, which is a tribute from Nancheng, Jiangxi!" replied the maid standing nearby.

"Oh!" Xia Pingan nodded. He had never eaten this Chinese rice before. It was so delicious. Xia Pingan ate another two mouthfuls of rice in the bowl. The health regimen taught by the imperial doctor was also the method of maintaining good health. According to the rules in Chinese medicine, even if you are an emperor, you must eat the staple food first, that is, rice. When the staple food enters the intestines and stomach, it is easier to convert into the essence required by the human body. With this foundation, it will be easier to digest when eating vegetables. This is the way to eat, just like taking medicine. In many cases, the so-called feeling of being full after eating means that the human intestines and stomach consume too much body energy to digest food when eating. The order is out of order...

Song Renzong ate this meal alone. In this room, apart from Xia Ping'an, there were only the serving maids and the historian who was holding a pen nearby and recording "Notes on Daily Life" at any time.

Xia Pingan was eating rice calmly. Suddenly, while chewing, he found a hard object that hit his teeth. Xia Pingan spit out the hard object from his mouth and found that it was a white gravel.

Seeing that there was gravel in the food that the emperor ate, the palace maid serving next to him suddenly changed his expression. This was no small matter. The food that the emperor ate was made in the imperial kitchen, and hundreds of people inspected it. This was sandwiched between The gravel in the rice was not found, which means that if something else was added to the rice, it would also not be found. If this is pursued, someone may lose his head, and the lightest one is a heavy stick.

"Don't make any noise about this matter!" Seeing the palace maid serving the narrator change her face and want to call someone, Xia Pingan quickly stopped and said gently, "The color of this gravel is white, just like this Magumi, the imperial kitchen and the inspection of meals It is understandable that it is difficult for people to find out for a while. This is a small matter, so don’t alarm the palace!"

The maid serving next to her quickly agreed.

Xia Pingan nodded and wanted to take two more bites of Magumi. The world of this world was shattered.

…

In the secret room, the cocoon of light shattered, and Xia Pingan opened his eyes and said softly, "The time for this divine power world bead is too short, and there is no chance of breakthrough fusion. This time, 18 points of divine power have been added. !”

Looking at the watch, it took less than three minutes to fuse this world bead. Then, Xia Pingan picked up the next world bead, "Gratitude Illustrated Report", and prepared to fuse it.

After meeting Wu Wuxin just now, Xia Ping'an returned to the villa on Hubin Road. Because it was still early tonight, he started to fuse the Jie Pearl he just got today.

During the day today, after leaving the Lord's Temple, Xia Ping'an quietly explored Corland following the clues and locations given by Haider, the missionary mage of Life Mu Song in the Divine Prison.

Haider's public identity has long been exposed, and the Bureau of Investigation has fully intervened. Haider's public residence and those with whom he has close contacts are now under investigation and surveillance by the Bureau. Only the hiding apartment in the "Cunning Rabbit Three Cave" where he concealed his identity It has not been completely exposed, but Xia Pingan did not intervene easily, because Xia Pingan was not sure whether the Investigation Bureau had fully discovered these clues. If the Investigation Bureau had already discovered the clues, he deliberately used his hiding place to fish, hoping to save his life. It's hard to explain that he entered the apartment rashly after fishing out the hidden person. We can only observe and observe first. It would be better if the Bureau of Investigation offered another reward for clues to Shengming Muge.

…

Before fusing Song Renzong's world bead, Xia Ping'an had already integrated the "evil-filled" world bead.

"The evils are overflowing" is the mobilization order and message that King Wu of Zhou gave to the army when he attacked King Zhou of Shang. "The crimes of Shang are overflowing, and it is the destiny of heaven to punish them." It is to criticize the various crimes and perverse actions of King Zhou of Shang. The integration of this world pearl is in It's enough to give a speech for a few minutes in front of the army.

Song Renzong's world pearl is also easy to fuse. This world pearl refers to Song Renzong's benevolence. Ordinary people would make a fuss if they went to a restaurant to eat gravel in the rice, but Song Renzong Renzong ate the grit in the rice, and in order to prevent the servants in the palace from being punished, he directly concealed the matter. Although this matter is a small matter, it also shows that Song Renzong's "benevolence" is really not an exaggeration, similar to There are many other things. Among the emperors of the Song Dynasty, the one Xia Pingan admired the most was Song Renzong who lived a humane life.

It's a pity that the time for these two world beads was too short, and it was over before Xia Pingan could "flex his muscles". The upper limit of the new divine power of the two world beads was only 45 points, which was far from enough to add another level of "god". Bone Ladder to Heaven.”

"I hope this world bead can have a chance to have a breakthrough fusion..." Looking at the last "Thanksgiving Illustrated" world bead left in his hand, Xia Pingan said to himself, Wu Zixu is a fierce husband, and his grudges are clear. The ending of life is so sad.

…

After the blood dripped, Xia Pingan was surrounded by a cocoon of cyan light in a moment.

…

When he opened his eyes, Xia Ping'an found himself standing at the entrance of a city gate. In front of him, there were many ordinary people standing. Everyone was talking about a notice in front of the city gate.

Xia Pingan looked at his hands, which were rough and dark, and then looked at his feet. He was wearing straw sandals and his clothes were also made of burlap.

I go!

Xia Pingan thought that he would be Wu Zixu in this world bead, but he did not expect that he would become a passerby's "fisherman". Although the failure of the world bead to fuse is not fatal, there is no divine mind crystal that can fuse this world bead. Only the World Pearl has ghosts.

One of the protagonists of this "Illustrated Report of Gratitude" has no name left in historical records. He is a young fisherman.

"Ah, what does this notice say?" The ordinary people in front of the crowd stood on their feet and looked in the direction of the notice, while whispering to the people next to them what the notice said. thing.

There were only a few people who could read in this era, but this did not affect everyone's enthusiasm for watching the official notice. Xia Pingan has always felt that the melon-eating gene inherited by Chinese people may have started from watching official announcements in this era.

"Oh, something bad has happened. Wu Zixu, the general of Wu State, is leading an army to attack Zheng State. Our king knows that he cannot resist, so he sends a notice to the whole country, saying that if someone in Zheng State can make Wu Zixu retreat, he will not attack Zheng State. , gold and silver treasures, fertile land and beauties, promotion of official positions, there must be many rewards!" A well-dressed old man stood under the notice and explained to the onlookers.

"Ah, Wu Guo is about to call?" Some people were a little panicked.

"Our monarch and the generals and ministers have no way to make Wu Zixu retreat. We are all common people. How can we make the Wu army retreat!" Some people shook their heads.

Those people who were talking a lot didn't know that there was really someone who could make the Wu army retreat. He was one of the melon-eating people who were watching this notice at the moment, an ordinary fisherman standing behind the crowd.

Xia Ping'an was literate. He looked at the notice. The notice said that those with this ability could directly reveal the name to meet the king.

After taking another look, Xia Ping'an squeezed his way to the front of the crowd. Amidst the surprised eyes of the onlookers, he walked directly to the bottom of the list and unveiled it.

"Ah, can he make Wu country withdraw its troops?"

"Li Lang, you are crazy. Do you dare to reveal the list?"

"It's Li Lang, Li Lang from the East River..."

The crowd around him suddenly went crazy, and from those angry remarks, Xia Pingan also knew his current name, Li Lang. This name is really sloppy, it means the son of the Li family, and the emotional Li Lang Lang's father didn't give this son who left a story in history any serious name.

As soon as Xia Pingan unveiled the list, a thick-bearded officer from the city gate came over and looked at Xia Pingan with suspicion, "Did you reveal the list?"

"I revealed the list!"

The officer smiled and said, "You are so brave. If you dare to expose the king of Banghu, I will chop your head off!"

"I dare to reveal the list and there will be a way to make Wu Zixu retreat."

"What method?"

"I can't tell you this. Only Wu Zixu and I know this method!"

The officer had just said a few words to Xia Pingan. Unexpectedly, more and more people were watching the excitement. Someone unveiled the list, and a lot of people came to watch the excitement. When the officer saw it, he was too lazy to say anything else. , directly brought Xia Pingan out from the bottom of the list, and then took Xia Pingan to see his superiors.

After a lot of trouble, Xia Ping'an met with the officer's superior's superior. Although the officials in Zheng State felt a bit toothless about the fact that a fisherman dared to expose the list, none of them believed that this fisherman could make Wu Zixu retreat, and some wanted to beat around the bush. They wanted to ask Xia Ping'an what method he could use to make Wu retreat, but after all, this was a notice issued by the king. Everyone in Zheng knew that this fisherman was very strict and couldn't find out anything, and they didn't dare to expose the person who revealed the list. Being left behind and embarrassed, Xia Ping'an could only be escorted to Xinzheng to meet the king.

The country of Zheng has a small land area, about 20,000 square kilometers, so in just one day, Xia Ping'an was sent to the palace in Xinzheng to meet Zheng Dinggong.

At this moment, Zheng Dinggong is also at a loss in the palace. Even if he still has half a way, he can't post notices all over the country to ask for capable people and strangers to find a way to get Wu Zixu to retreat. But if Wu Zixu doesn't retreat, how can Zheng Guo stop him? live.

Zheng Dinggong originally thought that the person who came to reveal the list was a skilled swordsman or an extremely intelligent strategist. Unexpectedly, it was a dark-faced and honest fisherman from Yingze. He was greatly disappointed and did not order the guards to push Xia Pingan out as a liar and chop off his head. That’s considered patient.

When he saw Xia Pingan, Zheng Dinggong's face was darker than Xia Pingan's.

"You said you could make Wu Zixu retreat?"

"Yes!" Xia Pingan nodded.

"What virtue and ability do you have that can make Wu Zixu retreat?"

Xia Ping'an smiled and said, "The virtuous and capable people are all the civil servants and generals around the king. Since they can't let Wu Zixu retreat, why don't the king let me, an immoral and incompetent person, try it?"

When Zheng Dinggong heard this, he looked at Xia Pingan carefully. He seemed to feel that this fisherman's calmness and wit were a little different from ordinary fishermen, so he nodded, "Okay, how do you want Zheng Guo to cooperate with you and lead the army?" I’m afraid it’s not your strong point!”

Zheng Dinggong's meaning is also very obvious. I can let you try and provide certain conveniences, but you don't want me to order the army to cooperate with you. You are not qualified.

"I don't need to lead an army. All I need is that your Majesty lets me go home to pick up a few things, then take me outside where Wu Zixu's army is camping, and give me a small boat!"

"Is it that simple?" Zheng Dinggong was stunned and asked in disbelief.

"Yes, it's that simple!"

Zheng Dinggong didn't talk nonsense anymore and immediately asked a capable subordinate to follow Xia Ping'an back to Xingze.

When Xia Ping'an returned home, he didn't take anything else. He took the old oar on the boat at home, and then was sent non-stop by Zheng Dinggong's men to the outside of Wu's army camp on the edge of Si River, and for Xia Pingan prepared a boat.

Xia Ping'an rowed the boat directly towards Wu Jun's camp. Early in the morning, Wu Jun camp was silent. All Wu Jun were still sleeping. When the boat approached Wu Jun's camp, he sang on the boat, "The people of Luzhong" , a man in the reed; crossing the river, whose favor is it? On the sword is a seven-star inscription; give it back to you, keep it with you. You are so proud today, do you remember, my father-in-law?"

This song was desolate and powerful, echoing on the water, and the people in the Wu Army camp naturally heard it.

After Xia Pingan sang twice, not long after, a small boat sailed over from the Wu Army camp. There were several sergeants on the boat. They took a look at Xia Pingan and found that Xia Pingan was a fisherman and there were no weapons on the boat. Then he asked, "Did you sing the song just now?"

"Exactly what I sang!"

"Our general would like to invite you to the camp to meet him!"

Xia Ping'an didn't talk nonsense. He just followed the soldiers of the Wu Army and rowed close to the Wu Army camp. After landing, he still held the oar in his hand and was taken to the camp by the soldiers of the Wu Army. In the big tent, I saw Wu Zixu.

There was a man in the big tent with white hair and beard, his face was full of the vicissitudes of time, but his eyes were as bright and sharp as swords, and his temperament was like that of an army, staring at Xia Pingan.

Seeing Wu Zixu, Xia Pingan felt a little sad in his heart. This person could dig up the grave of King Chu Ping and whip his corpse, but he could repay the fisherman who saved his life. He had clear grudges and dared to love and hate. He is truly a fierce husband. If there were no such figures in the Spring and Autumn Period, this era would have been much lonelier.

"I've seen the general!" Xia Ping'an saluted Wu Zixu.

"Did you sing that ballad just now?" Wu Zixu asked.

"I sung it!" Xia Pingan nodded, and without any nonsense, he directly handed over the oar in his hand, "General, do you still remember this oar?"

The guard next to Wu Zixu in the tent took the oar and brought it to Wu Zixu. When Wu Zixu saw the oar, he was slightly startled, and then a trace of excitement appeared on his face. He gently touched the oar with both hands, seeming to be caught in a trap. In the memory, "I didn't expect...it's been so many years...who gave you this oar?"

"My father gave me this oar. My father said that he used this oar to save the general's life. Today I will bring this oar to see the general!"

"That's right. When I fled and was hunted down, I was indeed saved by a fisherman. What do you want?"

"Now your State of Wu is attacking our State of Zheng. Our king said, who can make Wu State and Wu Zixu retreat, gold, silver and jewels, fertile land and beautiful women, high officials and noble titles, there will be many rewards. This reward is what I want. If the general returns Remembering my father's kindness in saving you, please stop attacking Zheng Guo and let me get the reward!"

There was silence in the tent. The guards around Wu Zixu all looked at Xia Pingan with wide eyes, as if they did not expect that Zheng Guo, a little fisherman, would dare to make such a rude request to the general.

Wu Zixu closed his eyes for half a minute before he opened his eyes and looked at Xia Pingan with light flashing in his eyes.

To the people in the tent, this half minute seemed like half a century had passed.

"Okay! Your father saved my life. Today I will repay your kindness. You can go back to your king and tell your king to let him give you a hundred miles of fiefdom. I will lead my troops back to Wu and stop attacking. You Zhengguo!"

Wu Zixu deserves to be Wu Zixu!

Xia Pingan let out a long breath, "Thank you, General, actually I have something else to say to the General!"

"Yesterday I had a dream about my deceased father. My father said something to me. My father said that if I see the general this time and the general can repay his kindness and make our family prosperous, then let me do it again. Save the general once to repay the general."

Wu Zixu's brows furrowed, a little incredulous, "Oh, how can you save me again?"

"My father told me a poem. He asked me to tell it to the general. The general will understand it in the future!"

"Oh, what poem?" Wu Zixu asked curiously.

"When King Wu abandoned Yue and attacked Qi, Bo Pei's slanderous words were enough to destroy him. Good birds in the Nine Heavens should choose trees, and dead trees and rotten branches cannot live in them!"

When Wu Zixu heard what Xia Pingan said, his expression changed instantly, showing an extremely solemn expression, and asked word by word, "Is this what your father told you in his dream?"

Of course, this was not something that came from a dream, but was made up by Xia Ping'an on the spur of the moment. He really couldn't bear to see Wu Zixu die in such a way in the future, and he wanted to try whether this world bead could achieve a breakthrough fusion, so he took advantage of his death. In the name of dreams, the author added a little drama to himself.

Xia Pingan nodded honestly, "Yes, my father said this to me in his dream, and I don't know what it means!"

"Okay, I understand..." Wu Zixu looked at the fisherman in front of him, thought for a while, and then took off a beautiful jade hook from himself and handed it to Xia Pingan, "This jade hook is for you. , if there is a chance to meet again in the future, you can come to me with this jade hook!"

"Thank you, General!" Xia Ping'an took the jade hook handed over by Wu Zixu, and the world of Jie Zhu suddenly shattered.

…

In the secret room, in the cocoon of light, the surging divine power washed Xia Pingan's whole body, and a new divine bone quietly condensed again...

It is indeed a breakthrough fusion, with a new upper limit of 60 points of divine power...

…

A few minutes later, the light cocoon on Xia Pingan's body was completely shattered. Xia Pingan opened his eyes, smiled with satisfaction, and exhaled a long breath, "It's seven stars. With a few more world beads, you can advance to the sixth level..."

Afterwards, Xia Pingan stood up, moved his body, walked out of the secret room, and took Black Dragon to the study.

Long Wu was guarding the study. When he saw Xia Pingan coming out of the secret room, Long Wu bowed slightly to Xia Pingan and then exited the study.

It was still early at this moment, and it took less than half an hour to fuse these three world beads.

Xia Pingan was reading in the study.

…

More than twenty minutes later, a carriage stopped outside the villa. Helena's maid got out of the car, came to the door, and pulled the doorbell. Long Wu went to open the door, and the maid handed over an envelope as usual, "This is from Madam." Mr. Xia’s!” and then left.

Long Wu took the envelope to the study.

Xia Pingan opened the envelope with a paper knife. Inside the envelope was a letter from Helena. Tomorrow morning, Xia Pingan would be alive again. As soon as he finished fusing the World Bead in his hand, the New World Bead came again. There was really no need to worry at all. …

This kind of luck is like sitting at home, and the beads are rolling in!

What a coincidence, it is the wife of Police Chief Corland who wants to perform detoxification tomorrow morning.
