Weicheng snow

Yi Qingchen didn't think too much, just pinched the jade pendant in his hand to float up to take a breath, and by the way told Jiang Zhige Yanjia's damage, but the water beside him suddenly became turbulent.

Yi Qingchen knew that most likely he had encountered an undercurrent that entangled people, so he quickly went through the survival methods taught by the corpse-hunting river workers in his mind. Jia grabbed Yan Jia to stabilize his figure recently, sand, stones and branches slapped on various parts of his body from time to time, Yi Qingchen just gritted his teeth and persisted, waiting for the undercurrent to fade away.

Yi Qingchen, who was forced by sand and rocks, couldn't open his eyes. Just when he felt as if he was about to suffocate, he seemed to be bitten by some fish on the back of his hand. The fish teeth were very sharp, but he only tasted it briefly. When he wanted to see what kind of fish it was, the undercurrent had already passed, Yi Qingchen naturally refused to let go of this precious opportunity, and immediately climbed up the Yanjia and continued to float up until it emerged from the water.

Breathing fresh air, Yi Qingchen seemed to be reborn. He raised his hand and wiped the river water on his face, and swam slowly towards the bank where Jiang Zhige was. The whole body sank heavily, and Yi Qingchen sat slumped on the ground, unable to get up.

It is true that he is too weak, if the undercurrent just now is more fierce, I am afraid that he will have to wait for the river workers who fish for corpses to go downstream to fish for him.Fortunately, I was blessed with a great life, so I didn't die here.

Jiang Zhige was very concerned about Yi Qingchen's condition, even though he himself was half disabled, he still tried to help Yi Qingchen, "Brother Yi, can you still stand up?"

Yi Qingchen waved his hand at him, and he really needed to slow down a bit, so he turned his gaze to the mysterious and weird girl behind Jiang Zhige, "Miss, did you lose this jade pendant?" , The jasper fragments exude a layer of brilliance like mist and smoke, covering the fragments like a tulle, and the value behind can be read with just a glance.

Yi Qingchen was also really shocked by the splendor of this fragment, if you look closely, you can still vaguely discern the hidden lines on it, the girl did not take the jasper directly, but gently lifted Yi Qingchen's body Turning the back of the hand over, a row of red tooth marks were imprinted on the delicate and white skin. The reason why Yi Qingchen didn't feel the pain was because the fish hadn't bitten into the meat at all.

The girl looked at the row of teeth marks for a while, but without explaining anything, she took the jade pendant and put it into the cloak, "Thank you."

Yi Qingchen liked the girl's polite but alienated, neat yet meaningful attitude, so she borrowed the tooth marks on the back of her hand and asked a few more words, "Miss, do you know what left this?"

The girl just said, "The fish demon."

Yi Qingchen was a little confused when he heard it, and even couldn't believe his ears, so he went to ask Jiang Zhige for confirmation, "Is there a fish called a fish demon here?"

Jiang Zhige shook his head honestly, "I've never heard of it."

This weird girl also stopped talking to Yi Qingchen and Jiang Zhige, and just stood back and stood quietly, but this time her eyes were looking in the direction of Taolin.It was only then that Yi Qingchen remembered that the girl had friends who were traveling with her, and wanted to ask her where she was going, but suddenly realized that it was too abrupt to ask a girl whom she had met not long ago, so she didn't ask.

After a moment of silence, he turned to Jiang Zhige and talked about the condition of the underwater Yanjia, "All the legs of the Yanjia have been submerged in the mud. It is really a big project to clean up, and there are differences in the Yanjia's abdomen and arm joints. It is damaged to a certain extent. If it is placed on the ground, I may be able to repair it. If it is dealt with underwater, it is necessary to master the connection of several joints, and to frequently enter and exit the water to breathe. Let alone me, it is now that the master is here. , I am afraid it will be difficult to do.”

Hearing Yi Qingchen's frustrating words, Jiang Zhige was also a little anxious, "What if I go to discuss with the county magistrate to stop the water in the upstream peach lake?"

Yi Qingchen thought about it for a while, and felt that this move was too risky, "Although Taoze is not as vast as Dongting, but blocking water and building dams is by no means something that can be done overnight. If we do it now, it is only a [-]% certainty."

Hearing that there is still [-]% certainty, Jiang Zhige breathed a sigh of relief, "It turns out that there is still [-]% chance, I thought there was no other way. I will go back and inform the county magistrate, let him send people to build the dam, and try a little It's better to try than sit and wait."

Yi Qingchen looked at the energetic look on Jiang Zhige's face, and was so envious, he was only [-]% certain, but he seemed to have a sure chance of winning, which made Yi Qingchen believe that as long as they were willing to build the dam, the battle would be over. The flood would surely be stopped, so he followed Jiang Zhige and giggled, smiling, and heard the mysterious girl sigh slightly.

Jiang Zhige and Yi Qingchen also realized the stupidity of their actions, the former helped the latter up, and the latter stabilized the former, the two said goodbye to the girl politely, and then supported each other Go back to the city to find the county magistrate.

On the way back to the city with nothing to do, Jiang Zhige and Yi Qingchen talked about what he saw and heard when he traveled all over the world to hunt down the ghost-faced gentleman these years, from the litchi in Lingnan to the cruise ship in Jinghua, unconsciously. , and the two of them had already walked under the city gate.

Jiang Zhige looked up at the word "Weicheng" on the city gate, and said with emotion, "I remember that when Mr. Chan Ji first came to Weicheng, he was accompanied by many people in official uniforms. I thought it would be the second Master Li, I didn't expect to be in such a state of despair, but it was also because of his illness? The price of medicine in Weicheng is indeed too high, even the price of medicine in the surrounding towns is a bit inflated..."

Yi Qingchen was stunned, "Fuyu? Ouchi? Master?" He had never heard of these things.

Jiang Zhige wondered, "Brother Yi, don't you know why Mr. Chan Ji came to Weicheng?"

Yi Qingchen shook his head in bewilderment, "Master has never mentioned this to me..." Thinking about it now, he is indeed not very competent as an apprentice. He has been with Master for ten years, and he has no respect for Master. In the past, the understanding was limited to the origin of the leg injury, which was just discovered this morning.

Jiang Zhige pondered, "So that's the case, maybe the husband doesn't want you to know about this, it's really not a happy thing, and even a little aggrieved." When Yi Qingchen heard the word "aggrieved", his heart became even more serious Curious, he asked, "What's going on?"

Jiang Zhige sighed, "I actually heard about this when I was traveling in the capital. Now, no one should know about it except for the older generation. Those older generation also cherish their lives very much, so they won't mess around. Say." He exchanged a glance with Yi Qingchen, and said in a low voice, "You should know Yufeng, the King of Eagles today, right? He is Miss Zhaoyu's grandfather."

Yi Qingchen nodded, and then Jiang Zhige said, "Sir and King Ying have always been best friends, and the two have been born and died together since they were young, and their names in the Jianghu are also going hand in hand."

"A great chivalrous man serves the country and the people. Later, the Eagle King saw that the world was too chaotic, and those hooligans and ruffians would not even have to pay for killing as long as they bore the title of chivalrous men. He wanted to use the power of the court to manage it, so he pulled Together, sir, he surrendered to the imperial court."

"Because of this matter, the two were cast aside by the chivalrous men in the Jianghu at that time. Later, King Ying became the prime minister and assisted the emperor in solving political and military affairs. Mr. Chanji became the national teacher, responsible for studying hagana and developing people's livelihood... ...."

Yi Qingchen's current mood can no longer be described as shock, "Master, he... has been a national teacher?"

Jiang Zhige nodded with a wry smile, "It's not my fault that you were scared. In fact, even I couldn't believe it when I first heard about it. Sir, the position of the national teacher didn't sit for a long time, and then he appeared again in the middle of the court. Sun Ming, who is very talented in Yanshu, is the current national teacher. He was the master's subordinate at first, and was responsible for helping the master. The master saw that he was very talented, so he introduced him as a confidant. Many secrets I showed him all the Yanjia Atlas. I never thought..."

"But he plagiarized Mr.'s atlas and made the first water-carrying Yanjia in the whole country..."

"No one can prove that this water-carrying Yanjia is Mr.'s idea, and Yanjia can't speak, and since Sun Ming can make it, it proves that he has this strength. Mister suffered a lot, Sun Ming As a result, his status rose again and again, and finally he sat on an equal footing with Mr.

"Later, this Sun Ming began to run on Mr. everywhere. Mr. painstakingly made a Yanjia, and Sun Ming would imitate it, and then during the time when Mr. was doing the final inspection, he was the first to dedicate it to the emperor, and he became Sun Ming's again. thing."

"But the emperor doesn't care about these at all, and no one can produce evidence..."

"At that time, the emperor was very disappointed with Mr. Sun Ming because he couldn't produce decent works for a long time, and he turned to Sun Ming. Mr. Chan Ji was seriously ill. He stayed up all night in order to catch up with Yanjia. After lying down for half a month, he finally recovered from his illness. He wanted to send Yanjia to the emperor, but Sun Ming was one step ahead of him. Unable to bear this anger, Mr. Sun Ming was beaten up in the court hall, and he suffered a serious crime for this , was relegated to the current situation."

"Although my husband's heart has never been in the temple, he still misses Jinghua. Before leaving, he specially went to Yingwang's mansion to ask for a white jade loquat, and brought it to Weicheng to plant. This loquat is probably the one in Mr.'s courtyard. Unfortunately, due to water and soil problems, loquats have never produced fruit after arriving here."

After hearing this, Yi Qingchen seemed to understand why the master would often sit under the loquat tree in a daze. It turned out that there was such a secret behind it.What a sad thing it should be to have a work of hard work stolen, but the perpetrators get away with it because there is no evidence. I can't even afford the medicine.

Yi Qingchen raised his head and sighed, "Where is the Eagle King? Didn't the Eagle King help him? Aren't they good friends?"

Jiang Zhige shook his head, "I heard from the insider at the time that King Ying didn't stand up in the court, and even Mr. Chan Ji asked him to stand up to testify, but he didn't say a single word in favor of Mr.. ...Mister probably hates him very much, right? That's why he avoided Miss Chaoyu that night..."

After Yi Qingchen heard this story, his mood was extremely complicated, all kinds of resentment, unwillingness, and disappointment were intertwined, but when he looked into Jiang Zhige's eyes, they all turned into a sense of helplessness, "It's really chilling. …”

Jiang Zhige nodded meaningfully, "So later, everyone stopped mentioning this matter, sir, he seemed to let it go, after all, he finally met Zhao Yu, didn't he?"

Yi Qingchen didn't make a sound, but the image of Master sitting under the loquat tree and looking at the sky was always in his mind.

"There is a loquat tree in the courtyard, which was planted by my wife when she died. Now it is as graceful as a canopy."

Somehow, Yi Qingchen thought of this sentence in the ancient book.
