Dinghai Fusheng Records

For some reason, Xiang Shu suddenly became exhausted, but his consciousness was still awake. Chen Xing helped him to the backyard and let him lie on a sickbed in the Huichun Hall. Xie Daoyun checked his pulse and glanced at Chen Xing. Did not speak.

"Have you come into contact with anyone during this period of time?" Xie Daoyun asked.

Chen Xing: "We just arrived in Jiankang the day before yesterday, and we met a lot of people, but there are no... strange people."

Xie Daoyun asked again: "Have you eaten anything?"

Chen Xing couldn't help recalling that the two lived in Xie's house, Xie's family ate and ate as usual, yesterday in Dongzhe, Xiang Shu didn't drink tea from their house, but drank a lot by himself.After nightfall, they only drank at Feng Qianjun's house, and Feng Qianjun would never come to plot against them.

Chen Xing answered in turn, and Xie Daoyun knew that Chen Xing was the guest of his uncle's house.

Chen Xing held onto Xiang Shu's hand and injected the heart lamp into Xiang Shu's meridians all over his body, but there was nothing unusual about it.

"Could it be..."

Xie Daoyun did not answer.

Xiang Shu didn't fall asleep, he only raised his other hand, put his thumb in front of his eyebrows and rubbed it a few times, Chen Xing said, "Xiang Shu, are you sleepy?"

"Not sleepy." Xiang Shu frowned, but he had no strength, "Let's go back first."

At this time, Gu Qing came over with a bowl of thickly boiled medicinal soup. Chen Xing smelled a strong smell of ginseng, and Xiang Shu said, "I don't need to drink this. I'm not sleepy. It's not a plague."

"Would you like to have a drink?" Chen Xing said.

Xiang Shu seemed a little annoyed, and stretched out his hand to block it, but Chen Xing couldn't help but say, "I'll feed you, you are obedient."

Xie Daoyun observed the relationship between the two, and then glanced at Gu Qing. Gu Qing forced a smile and nodded to Xie Daoyun, meaning "it's what you think".Xie Daoyun frowned slightly, as if a little worried.

Xiang Shu said, "Okay, I'll drink it myself!"

Chen Xing knew that Xiang Shu didn't like to show his weakness in front of others, so he didn't force him, and when Xiang Shu drank the bowl of soup, he became more energetic on the spot.

"What medicinal materials are in it?" Chen Xing asked Xie Daoyun.

"Ginseng, Eucommia, Dipsacus, Psoralen..." Xie Daoyun's face remained normal, and he continued to talk about more than ten medicines, all of which are powerful tonics with strong yang properties. "The prescription prescribed by the master."

After Xiang Shu finished drinking the medicine, he got up and didn't want to stay in the medicine hall anymore.

Chen Xing then stood up. Anyway, he probably knew what he should know from Xie Daoyun, so he had to apologize. Xie Daoyun didn't ask them for the medicine, so he asked Gu Qing to send the two of them out, prepare a car, and send them back to Xie's mansion. .

"Is it better?" Chen Xing was half scared by Xiang Shu, and half scared himself.After all, Xiang Shu has always been an omnipotent image in his mind, and gradually he forgot that no matter how powerful he is, he is a flesh and blood body that needs to eat, drink and sleep. He panicked, anxious and worried, and pressed Xiang Shu's pulse in the car.

Xiang Shu was thinking, but did not answer Chen Xing, Chen Xing called several times, Xiang Shu came back to his senses, met his gaze, and said a little angrily: "I told you, don't get sleepy, you don't believe me?"

Chen Xing could only nod his head, he didn't know what to do for a while, he just hoped it wasn't a big trouble.

"More than two years ago, I investigated Keyera's whereabouts. When I went south from Luoyang, I encountered exactly the same situation," Xiang Shu said, "and was captured by the Jin army."

Chen Xing: "!!!"

Chen Xing remembered. At that time, he wondered for a while, how did Xiang Shu get caught with such skill?

"In an instant, I lost all my strength." Xiang Shu frowned.

"How did it get better later?" Chen Xing asked in surprise.

Xiang Shu said to himself: "I don't know, maybe it's because I took your medicine, maybe I recovered before I saw you, but the Han people didn't provide food and water, so I couldn't break free. I was caught and taken to Xiangyang After that, I was weak for a while."

Xiang Shu raised his hand and lifted the epee, barely able to lift it, but the movement was obviously sluggish and weak.

"It's like suddenly, all the strength dissipated," Xiang Shu murmured, "What's going on? Chen Xing, can you calm down?"

"What's wrong with me?" Chen Xing was at a loss, "Do I look panicked?"

Xiang Shu frowned and said, "You look like you've got the plague. If it was fine last time, it will definitely be fine this time."

Chen Xing calmed down a little, and said, "I... because I'm a little scared."

Chen Xing held Xiang Shu's hand, Xiang Shu looked at him for a while, Chen Xing finally calmed down, and said, "Let's take a day off and see."

On the same day, Chen Xing observed Xiang Shu's condition and suspected that it was some kind of stubborn illness. This situation made him more and more confused. Xiang Shu was not as sleepy and sleepy as Xie Daoyun described. His expression was as usual, only a little tired. plague.However, it is also possible that the item itself has a strong physique and the symptoms are not obvious after being infected.

That night Chen Xing moved into Xiang Shu's room and shared the couch with him. The next morning, Xiang Shu woke up as usual.Chen Xing thought to himself, thank God, and when he got up, he pressed the pulse mentioned above. It is normal for the pulse to be strong and strong.

"How do you feel?" Chen Xing asked.

Xiang Shu stood up, tried to lift the epee, and said, "No, it's difficult to even make a move. If there are enemies coming, it will be very troublesome."

Said, Xiang Shu and Chen Xing exchanged a look, both of them felt the danger, Chen Xing murmured: "Could it be them? Shi Hai's hand has already reached here?"

Xiang Shu said: "Not necessarily, at least so far, no trouble has come to my door. They may not know about my weakened situation. We are still in the dark, but we must be very careful and take it seriously. After listening to Feng Qianjun that day After saying goodbye to the incident, I always felt that something was wrong. It is impossible for Shi Hai to give up the south, he must have had the idea of ​​Jiankang long before the Battle of Xiangyang."

What Chen Xing suspected at first was that the plague was related to Shi Hai. Even if Shi Hai didn't personally or send his men to Jiangnan, the spread of the epidemic was all caused by Ba.A lot of complicated information interfered with his judgment, and made him feel that this matter might not have much to do with Ba?

Did I guess the wrong direction from the beginning?Chen Xing began to feel that there was some unknown danger lurking under the bustling appearance of Jiankang City.If it is assumed that Shi Hai's subordinates have been lurking in a place south of the Yangtze River, planning to overthrow the peaceful Jin court, but the implementation of his plan is not as smooth as in the northern land, then everything in front of him can make sense.

"You're right," Chen Xing admitted, "I took it lightly."

Xiang Shu nodded, as if his momentum was not diminished by the loss of force.Chen Xing also discovered that Xiang Shu had lost a lot of physical strength, but his mind was still clear, unlike the usual description of "lost soul".

Chen Xing then adjusted the prescription, asked Xie's family to buy medicinal materials, removed the few medicines prescribed by Xie Daoyun, and mainly focused on strengthening his physical strength.Xie An came to court as usual, and invited Chen Xing and Xiang Shu to dinner.Chen Xing began to ask if there were any strange people in Jiankang, Danyang, Kuaiji, and Moling in the past year.

"No." Xie An thought and thought, and said, "What's the matter? I heard that you went to see Daoyun yesterday?"

Chen Xing and Xiang Shu had a brief discussion before, and decided to leave today to investigate seriously, and there was no longer any delay, so they said: "I won't bother you in the next few days, we have to go out."

Xie An said to Chen Xing: "A few days ago, I sent people to Kuaiji to find out where there are immovable slips. I guess I will be back today or tomorrow, so why don't you wait?"

Xiang Shu: "The things in front of me are more important, let's save them for now. Maybe we can meet them in Kuaiji."

Xie An hesitated to speak, and asked after a while: "Is there anything I can help you with? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Chen Xing did not doubt Xie An, and if he really wanted to plot against them, he would have plotted against them long ago, and he would not wait until now, but it would be good for one less person to know about the loss of military power, so he only said that it was related to the plague.Xie An nodded slowly when he heard the words, and at this moment, Xie Daoyun brought Gu Qing along.

"Better?" Xie Daoyun said as soon as he entered the door, and nodded to Xie An. After meeting Li, he came to check Xiang Shu's pulse, and looked at Chen Xing, who slowly shook his head.

"Brother Xiang is not feeling well?" Xie An asked.

"No." Chen Xing replied immediately.

Xie Daoyun checked and found that Xiang Shu was similar to yesterday, but not drowsy, and not a plague, so he was really puzzled.Not long after, another person came to visit Xie An from outside.It was the owner of Dongzhe Bank, but it was Wen Zhe who came to the door this time, and several men were replaced.

Xie An's house was really lively today. I saw a person holding a box full of land deeds, and said to Xiang Xiang: "Master Shulu, this is the land deed that my wife asked me to bring. There is really not so much money in the bank. Now, I have to use some properties purchased in Jiankang, Kuaiji and other places to offset it, I don't know what you want."

Xie An was already dumbfounded, Chen Xing waved his hand to signal him not to ask, after looking at the land deed, it turned out that Wen Zhe didn't have so much cash when he went back and calculated it, and maybe he didn't want to empty out the money to pay for the item, so he thought about it Such a move.

"Leave it alone," Xiang Shu said with a normal expression, "How much is left after the calculation?"

The visitor said respectfully: "The land deed and properties here are equivalent to 100 million taels of silver. There are still 200 million taels to be paid. Madam asks Lord Shulu to give another six months of grace."

"Hey! Uncle!" Xie Daoyun hurriedly stepped forward to carry Xie An back, and Xie An almost fainted after hearing the words.

"Yes." Xiang Shu saw that the other party had even brought out the land deed, which was a sign of sincerity, and he didn't want to force people too much, so he agreed to the leniency. The visitor seemed to have expected this to be said, and hurriedly took out a pen and paper , said happily: "Then please leave a note for the adults, and the younger ones can go back to the business."

"What I said, Lukong, doesn't count?" Xiang Shu said coldly, "You can go back now, otherwise I will change my mind."

That person had no choice but to be obedient, and retreated, when he was leaving Xie's mansion, another person came, it was Feng Qianjun.

Feng Qianjun passed by the envoy, he was well-informed and obviously heard about it today, so he entered and said, "Brother Xiang, are you alright?"

Everyone in the hall winked at him together, but Xie An subconsciously wanted to run away, Feng Qianjun said impatiently: "I won't pursue your debt anymore, Mr. Xie, I'll give you another year's grace!"

Half an hour later, Xiang Shu was in the room.

Chen Xing was packing his luggage, Feng Qianjun sat down, observed Xiang Shu's face, Xiang Shu frowned and asked, "What are you doing here again?"

"How dare I not come?" Feng Qianjun knew it was bad after hearing Gu Qing's story last night, and sent someone outside Xie's house early this morning to listen to the news, and when he saw Xie An coming to court, he hurried over to check the situation, "The day before yesterday The wine I drank at my house in the evening had an accident yesterday, how dare I not come?"

Xiang Shu replied, "It has nothing to do with your wine, I know that in my heart."

Feng Qianjun said, "Are you going to Kuaiji now?"

Chen Xing replied: "I can't wait for the news from Brother Xie, I have to go as soon as possible."

Feng Qianjun made a decisive decision and said, "I'll walk with you."

Chen Xing looked at Xiang Shu, and Xiang Shu nodded. It was also Feng Qianjun's goal to find out the whereabouts of the corpse. Right now, Xiang Shu has lost all his strength, and with Feng Qianjun around, he must be safer after all.

So Feng Qianjun went to do some sorting, and in the afternoon of that day, the three of them set off for Kuaiji.

Somewhere in the dark underground, several zigzag underground rivers meet here, and when the river passes through the lowlands, it lights up with a slight gleam.The banks on both sides of the underground river are full of strange glowing flowers.

The sea of ​​flowers reflected the dark space blue, and the flowers were covered with butterflies with white wings. The butterflies emitted a faint light powder and spread towards the center of the sea of ​​flowers.

In the sea of ​​flowers, in the shoal in the middle of the river, there appeared a zigzagging magic circle covering an area of ​​nearly acre. There was a dark blue shimmer in the magic circle. This magic circle continuously absorbed energy from thousands of butterflies in the ground. Flickering and flickering.

In the center of the magic circle, lay a huge snake with a broken horn on its head, an endless stream of black energy around its body, and its eyes were tightly closed.

Wen Zhe stood outside the circle, holding a small hand clock in his left hand, watching the big snake quietly.

"According to your instructions yesterday, the power of the dragon-binding formation was strengthened." Wen Zhe raised his slender brows slightly, and said, "But I don't understand, what's the use of this?"

"A try." The man behind Wen Zhe said.

Wang Ziye appeared on the outer bank of the luminous flowers, and three black armored warriors waded in beside him. Wen Zhe suddenly felt surprised, and glanced back, three Kings of Ba appeared at the same time, which surprised her very much.

"What attempt?" Wen Zhe asked again, "The refining is almost successful. At this time, the dragon-binding formation is suddenly strengthened. Master Shihai, what exactly do you want to do?"

Wang Ziye held a black fan in his hand, shook it casually, and said, "The Dragon Binding Formation is fully activated to confirm a person's identity. The facts have proved my guess, so don't take it lightly."

Wen Zhe said contemptuously: "As for what? You sent me three?"

Wen Zhe turned around and looked at the three Ba ​​kings who came in front of him.

Wang Ziye said: "Underestimate the enemy and be careless, resulting in the disastrous defeat of Feng Qianyi, Zhou Zhen and Zhou Yi, and the loss of two of them by the king of Qi. My lord has issued a strict order, Wen Zhe, don't capsize in the gutter."

Wen Zhe: "That's not the case. The grievances collected by the Falling Soul Clock are limited. If this continues, the power that Lihunhua draws from the veins of the earth may not last long."

Wang Ziye replied: "It doesn't matter, they have no power now, what are their movements?"

Wen Zhe: "The exorcist left Jiankang today."

Wang Ziye said leisurely: "I know, although the truth is almost inseparable, it is always good to confirm it carefully. I will go meet them for a while."

"Be careful yourself." Wen Zhe said.

Wang Ziye made a gesture and took away the three King Ba, leaving Wen Zhe to stand alone.A moment later, Wen Zhe walked into the dragon-binding formation, gently stroked the eyelids of the giant dragon, showing a gentle expression.

Two days later, Jiankang was on the official road leading to Kuaiji.

"Xiang Shu, are you okay?" Chen Xing asked Xiang Shu.

Xiang Shu's sword was tied to the horse's back, and he followed Chen Xing and Feng Qianjun into the mountains and forests. The south of the Yangtze River was full of greenery in spring, and the hills were full of terraced fields, which made people feel refreshed and happy.

Feng Qianjun slowed down his horse and said to Xiang Xiang: "I still remember that we went to Chang'an in the same way more than a year ago. Before we knew it, a year had passed."

Xiang Shu didn't speak, Chen Xing deliberately slowed down a little because he was afraid that his body would be weak.

"I should stay in Jiankang," Xiang Shu said, "I'm holding you back."

Chen Xing frowned and said, "How can you say that?"

Xiang Shu said: "I'm a little worried about leaving the magic weapon in Xifeng. But I'm even more worried about letting you go to Kuaiji by yourself."

Feng Qianjun: "Brother Xiang, I heard it all. So in your eyes, I'm still not human..."

Item description: "Money."

"Don't!" Feng Qianjun immediately said, "Brother, I'm not human! I'll go ahead and find the way for you!"

Before Chen Xing and Xiang Shu left the city, they had temporarily stored the Yin-Yang Mirror, the Ferocious Drum and the set of rings in the secret room of Xifeng Bank.

"It'll be fine," Chen Xing said calmly, "Occasionally I can protect you, my luck has always been good, as long as you don't leave me too far."

The three of them passed through a canyon, and Feng Qianjun, who was walking in the front, suddenly slowed down.

Chen Xing and Xiang Shu stopped behind Feng Qianjun.

"What did you guess earlier?" Feng Qianjun said, "Chen Xing, do you think the corpse made Brother Xiang sick?"

Chen Xing thought: "Maybe, but we still need evidence to support it."

Feng Qianjun asked again: "What did Xie An say? What did he send people to Kuaiji to investigate for you?"

Chen Xing: "???"

Item statement: "..."

I saw Feng Qianjun rode his horse to the depths of the canyon, and there was a pale corpse hanging from a tree in front of the stream.The corpse was dressed in Jin costumes, with a waist card hanging on the lapel.

The three of them dismounted, Feng Qianjun took off the waist badge from the corpse, and wrote the number "Da Jin Zhong Shu Jian Lin".

Chen Xing looked at the waist badge and said, "This is a member of the Zhongshu Supervisor? He is Xie An's subordinate. Why... did he die here?!"

Suddenly, the corpse roared wildly, opened its cloudy eyes, and grabbed Chen Xing!

"Be careful!" Although Xiang Shu had no force, his reaction was not slow at all. He pulled Chen Xing away, and Chen Xing was startled. Roar, the neck is tied and hung on the tree, there is nowhere to escape, only struggling wildly, the appearance is extremely terrifying!

At the height of the canyon, Wang Ziye, who had been watching this scene for a long time, seemed to find it very interesting, so he laughed.

Behind him, the three kings of Ba stood standing with their swords in their hands.

Wang Ziye waved his fan and ordered: "Go."

Immediately afterwards, the Ba kings bowed one after another, turned into black shadows, and jumped off the cliff!

The next moment, Feng Qianjun suddenly wrapped his left hand behind his back and pressed his right hand around his waist. In an instant, both sabers came out. Xiang Shu turned around, knocked Chen Xing away with his shoulder, and led him to fall to the side.

The three kings of Ba in the air drew their swords at the same time, and each took one person. Before Feng Qianjun turned around, he blocked a move with his back and two sabers.

"Enemy attack!" Feng Qianjun shouted, "Hurry up!"
