Born short-lived

"Rebirth." Dong Sheng couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, lying on the bed bored and harassing Tiangang Lingwu, "Rebirth?"

The past life lies in the sword and pretends not to hear.

"I have business to do. Listen to me."

"Say." The bronze sword wrapped in black cloth muffled.

"Let's pack up and go to the mine tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Dong Sheng opened his eyes, staring thoughtfully at the top of the bed curtain, and listening to the sword beside him remained silent for a long time, he had no choice but to recover from the warmth. He pulled out a hand from the quilt and poked the hilt of the sword, "Are you listening?"

"Hmm." Past life responded inarticulately, "What? Got an idea?"

"Probably." Dong Sheng sighed.

"It's really not possible, how about we just steal it directly?" Dong Sheng was silent for a while, and suddenly suggested in a non-stop way.

"Steal your head," Wang Sheng scolded angrily, "How did you grow your brain? If I knew where to steal it, I would spend time here with you?"

Although the past life can roughly sense the location of the companions, but because these sword spirits have not been awakened by the black spirit, they cannot sense their exact positions.

Moreover, Tiangang Lingwu is Huaxu's national treasure, and ordinary people have no courage to hide it privately, and there is no need to hide it privately.It was taken back from Silan in the past in the past. If the old fox of Silan would return the things to Hua Xu without reservation, no one would believe it.Moreover, there are frequent wars in this area, and the arms control is very strict. Aldan has to find out how many packages are trafficked at the border every day. It's bullshit.Furthermore, judging from Slan's previous record of hiding the Tiangang Lingwu, they are probably inseparable.

It's just that Silan and Huaxu still have diplomatic relations on the surface after all, and "stealing" is completely a bad idea.

"..." Dong Sheng stared at the bed curtain in silence for a while, and almost thought he was asleep until his death, and then suddenly said, "You can do something for me."

"what?"

"I want to know who wants to kill Aldan." Dong Sheng blinked.

"Yeah." Sitting in the black cloth wrapped in the sword, Wang Sheng said in a voice, "I also have that intention."

"Oh?" Dong Sheng tilted his head slightly, "What do you say?"

"Actually, it's not surprising that someone wants to kill Aldan. After all, his new policy has offended too many people. It's just..." He hesitated to speak, as if he was a little uncertain. After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and said; The nobles have been almost cut down by him, and it is the time when they are evenly matched, and if Aldan dies at this time, it will not benefit them at all."

After hearing this, Dong Sheng thought for a while and asked, "Could it be someone from the black flag?"

"It's possible," replied the past life, "it just needs to be verified."

"With such a big move, if you miss one hit, you will definitely not let it go. We can also wait for them to show their feet again."

The past life was silent for a while, and replied; "It makes sense."

"You're not here today. There's news from the capital." Wang Sheng continued, "It's said that the East China Sea has tracked down and found that Nanyang and the spirit ghosts of the disaster in the East China Sea are involved."

When he heard the word Dong Hai, Dong Sheng froze almost imperceptibly, and the things that had been suppressed in his heart surged up like sand under the undercurrent, which made him a little restless for a while.

"Dongsheng?" Wangsheng seemed to sense something was wrong with him, and asked aloud. Dongsheng immediately reacted, shook his head as if nothing had happened, and smiled bitterly: "I'm fine. Speaking of this, Marshal Zeng did send Luo Geng went to secretly investigate Yunnan and Fujian. Marshal... After he left, the Queen Mother showed me the last batch of military reports that Luo Geng wrote to him, saying that he had found spirit ghosts in Yunnan and Fujian."

"..." Wangsheng was silent for a while, and then said in a calm voice, "You mean..."

The past life was already stuffy in the black cloth, but now that the voice is lowered, it is even more difficult to hear clearly.Dong Sheng hesitated for a while, and finally pulled off the cloth wrapping the sword unbearably: "It's not sure yet, right now this Aldan is definitely not willing to honestly help us find things, we have to add some more to him." code."

"Ah."

Then there was a moment of almost stagnant silence. Dong Sheng seemed to be struggling in his heart, and said with some hesitation; "About six or seven years ago, before you were awakened by me, something happened in Dongnanhai. , you may not know."

"what's up?"

"At that time, the prince of Beizhao was called Zhou Haiping. He was ordered to patrol the south. Unexpectedly, he was attacked on a large scale in the southeast sea near Nanyang. The first fleet was almost wiped out. Fortunately, his eldest son rushed to the reinforcements with people. Only then did he rescue him. The enemy was captured, and Mr. Zhou removed the fuse before they blew themselves up. Later, when they searched the enemy ship, they accidentally found a few receipts inside, which turned out to be stamps of Huaxu Yinzhuang. So The king of Beizhao followed all the way to investigate, but for some reason, in the end, only two corrupt officials from Yunnan and Fujian who secretly opened mines in Nanyang and colluded with pirates were found. Since then, nothing has happened. So I was thinking..."

"You feel connected?"

"Maybe." Dong Sheng sighed inaudibly.

Otherwise, Donghai would not have been holding on to Yunnan, Fujian and Nanyang for so many years. After all, in that battle, Zhou Yang, the second son of the Zhou family who first went out with his father, was killed on the spot, and Zhou Haiping was seriously injured.Even though he recovered after going back, his body and bones have been in decline since then, and he kicked his legs in a few years.

When Zhou Yang died, Dong Sheng had only come to Donghai for a few years, and he was still young at that time, and his memory of that person was not very clear.All he knew was that the man was Zhou Zirong's younger brother. The two brothers looked almost identical, and they belonged to the same fire attribute as Zhou Zirong, and they were also young geniuses.I still vaguely remember the time when the two of them took themselves to the beach to play, which made the little prince jump up and down excitedly when he saw the beach for the first time in his life.And this prince was not a fuel-efficient lamp since he was a child, and the two brothers just had a look, and this person had already been swept into the sea.

Fortunately, the waves were not big that day, and Dong Sheng was only short at the time, so he was carried by the waves for a while.But it frightened Zhou Zirong to the point of losing his mind, so he rushed up to catch people without hesitation.At that time, Dong Sheng himself was frightened to death, and after being caught by Zhou Zirong, he seemed to wilt, lying on the beach coughing water without saying a word.Zhou Yang laughed heartlessly at him for being stupid, but in the end Zhou Zirong scolded him all the time.

After Zhou Yang's death, Zhou Haiping frantically wanted to investigate thoroughly. This case, which was originally supposed to be in charge of Nan Jiang, turned out to be almost entirely handled by King Bei Zhao and the Zeng Mansion.

He has also met Yang Gui, the old man guarding southern Xinjiang, a few times. He is an out-and-out idler.Before Zhou Yang's accident, he had paid a visit to this old man, and he hit it off with himself back then, as if they were old friends.Therefore, when the empress ordered a thorough investigation of this matter, she asked Donghai and Nanjiang to work together to complete it, so the final situation naturally became a situation where Donghai was doing things and Nanjiang was picking up the loopholes.

But now, this news has been sent to him who is far away in a foreign country, so naturally it is not for display.

It's just... I didn't expect that even though he was far away, he still couldn't escape the entanglement with this old incident. Once those deep-rooted thoughts in his heart were mentioned, they would spread out of control.The past events that he wanted to forget, one after another, crushed through his mind like locusts passing through, eating away at his gradually numb nerves.

Unknowingly, there was a burst of heat in the eye sockets.

After reincarnating, I sorted out the relationship mentioned just now, and realized that Dong Sheng hadn't spoken just now until I understood it.The brain and heart made of bronze are so sensitive for some reason. In the darkness, they faintly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so they tried to ask, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Dong Sheng turned his back to him and wiped his tears on the pillow calmly.

"Do you miss Marshal Zeng?" Wang Sheng could hear his voice choked up, but this broken sword heart is stronger than iron, and he didn't give any face to tell the truth, "Or General Zhou?"

Dong Sheng sighed, and asked sullenly, "Do you know what it means to have a son who wants to support him but refuses to be loved?"

"I know," Xiangsheng replied, feeling a bit tangled in his heart, finally felt that he should tell the truth, so he said truthfully; "But I don't understand."

Dong Sheng felt that the sword was probably made of solid copper water from body to heart, and he didn't bother to argue with him, but as soon as he opened this hole in his heart, he panicked before finishing speaking, so he opened his mouth slowly; "He I didn't treat him well when I was alive, and now that he's gone... I can't even do him a filial piety, and I'm afraid I'll never be able to pay back what I owe him..."

"...As for Zhou Zirong," Dong Sheng thought for a long time before he dared to mention this name alone with others. As soon as the words came out, his heart felt empty, and he didn't know where to start, "I can't say no." Qing, even if I have to pay this car back, I'm afraid it will take me a lifetime to pay it back."

It was not easy for him to be considerate for a while in the past life, and he didn't answer his words anymore, and his heart felt a little sour for no reason. Year……
