Chapter 13 - Chapter 13: The Search

Work Cao lives in the volume room. 'Ah! Chen Xingxin Ran said, "Finally found!" Chen Xing spread out a map of a building in the ancient city of Chang 'an three hundred years ago and asked Tuobayan, "Where is this?" Tuobayan, in charge of the defense of the inner and outer cities, naturally recognized it at a glance and said: "The west of the city, the pine and cypress house." I'll take you there tomorrow." Chen Xing want to take advantage of the sun did not go down, by the way to take a look, but think of Tuoban Yan accompanied him in the afternoon, maybe the palace also on duty not AWOL, is thanking Tuoban Yan, to walk past, Tuoban Yan insisted on sending him back to the palace, otherwise not good account. Chen Xing a mouthful, however, had to say goodbye to Tuobayan outside the imperial garden. Chen Xing half dont want to go back to bed to see the face, but since things have made progress, tell him is also a matter of course, so ready to go back for dinner. This is a face numb to listen to the princess Qinghe introduced his cousin, the original Qinghe and Murong Chong aunt, married to the Tuoba section, although for the wife but nothing out, and then the husband has a concubine, is Tuoban Yan. Tuoba Yan hours not love, home no one special to tube, but grandmother very love. After his grandmother died, Tuoba Yan grew up to 14 years old, and enlisted in the Forbidden Army, which was a good scholar of martial arts, making a good halberd stand out in the selection of martial arts, and looking like jade, Fu Jian favored, recruited to his side. Two years later, Murong Chong left Beijing, Fu Jian is lonely, he more or less transfered to Tuobayan, but Tuobayan is not Murong Chong, temperament is very far away, Fu Jian want to think about it, after all, did not visit him, but very love him, Tuobayan as a younger brother cultivation, intentionally looking for him a marriage, just look and look, are not suitable. Qinghe princess specifically asked, Tuoban Yan himself also said not clear want to knot what kind of pro-am, the goal is determined, the most like the Han. Until last night, Tuoban Yan first saw Chen Xing in Yuwenxin's home, and listened to Yuwenxin mention the past - although the Chen family has been broken, but Chen Zhe still has quite high prestige among scholars and officials, less than half of the Qin court in the book, are Chen Xing's father taught out of the students. Since the match, and was Tuoba Yan fell in love at first sight, princess Qinghe quickly came to inquire. Chen Xing also did not expect Chenxing actually have this origin, always Gujing no wave expression, was actually produced a little ripple and shock, as if to know Chen Xing again, and Yuwenxin outside the hall still nod, and Qinghe princess sing and call "yes, yes, yes", but also to the hall to turn left, turn right, let the project is very upset, Just looking for a knife to nail him to a post like a fly. Suddenly the temple at the same time silence, Chen Xing came in. "Eh? Chen Xing looked at a blank glance, Yuwenxin busy smile: "day chi!" "Hello, Brother Xin!" Chen Xing avoided Yuwenxin came to hold the hand, and nodded to princess Qinghe. Princess Qinghe smiled and said, "Have you gone out with Tuoban Yan?" Chen Xing full head doubts, how do you know? Princess Qinghe said: "Come, sister pour a cup of tea you eat." Then he went to the pot and said, "I have something good to tell you later..." Chen Xing said: "No, there is ready-made, I am thirsty!" Said the case of the tea up to drink, cup after cup, Chang 'an aristocrats to propose tea to drink clean. Everyone: "..." "Huh?" Chen Xing said, "What is this?" Speaking, he picked up the portrait on the case to look at it, but Xiang Shu pressed his hand and angrily said, "Don't move!" "Look what's wrong?" Chen Xing grabbed the stack of paper, was a pull, the internal force of the item, torn in half on the spot, Chen Xing had to throw the paper back, smashed the item covered. Item description: "You..." Chen Xing finished his tea and said: "I have a clue, I still have to go, give me some money." Thought before it was too late, just go to the pine House to see. Princess Qinghe stood up and said, "I will let Yan 'er accompany you, just so that he can not be on duty at night." Chen Xing busy way do not need not, say goodbye in the imperial garden, know tonight Tuoban Yan must go to Fu Jian Shou banquet, then toward the show. "No." Item description cold way. Chen Xing thought I can't walk? He did not ask him, and then walked away. Not long after Chen Xinggang had left, Princess Qinghe wondered, "Dashanyu, where did you say?" At this moment, a famous servant came from outside again, apparently sent by the group of people in the afternoon to inquire about the news, peeking outside the hall, seeing that the milk tea in the silver cups and gold cups and enamel cups of each family had been drunk clean, and the waste paper torn in half was thrown into the hall, and he was suddenly overjoated and ran away. It took a while for Princess Qinghe and Xiang Shu to come to their senses at the same time and shout together: "Come back!" Xiang Shu quickly got up to chase, that the servant had already run out of sight, so that night all the people knew that Da Shan this afternoon, as soon as they left, he drank all the milk tea poured, and the portrait was all torn in two. What does this mean? Why don't you guys get ready and send your little boy to Tai Shan Yu? Chen Xing walked out of the palace and looked at the map, it was nearly dusk, passed several doors, heard several families in the firecrackers, did not know what happened, only thought that the festival was about to begin, Weiyang Palace was near the west of the city, so he walked for nearly an hour before reaching Songbai House, the day was already dark, and the evening drums were ringing again and again. To the west of the city was an upland, planted with pine and cypress trees, hung with red lanterns outside, a row of buildings half-hidden in the pine forest, and inside came the wild laughter of drunken men. Chen Xing remembered that when he separated from Feng Qianjun before, he told him to settle down here. Chen Xing circled around the outside a little, but could not find the entrance, only saw a closed door, the door on the four gilt characters shining: "Xifeng Bank." Chen Xing: "?" "Is anyone there?" Chen Xing shouted, comparing the map in his hand, it is indeed here. Go around again, to a dense forest, see two stones dare when, there are two stones on the side, the left book "green pines and cypress", the right book "Sen Luo Vientiane". Chen Xing walked in along the road and turned a few corners along the winding path, but suddenly felt wrong, the trees in the inner rockery were actually arranged in the "rest, health, injury, Dao, scenery, death, surprise and opening" set by Kong Ming during The Three Kingdoms. The first lesson Chen Xing learned after he entered the master's door was to break these eight formations, which could not be difficult for him, only hesitating that if this array was set up, it must not be a place open to the outside world. Would it be rude to barge in? However, to turn around, this outer eight but can not return to the original road, the only way is to go to the end, from the northeast Gong Sheng gate to go out, Chen Xing had to stiffen his head to go inside, walking back and forth, suddenly found that the eight hexagahua Array there are various changes, after turning the rockery, suddenly appeared in front of a large house, lit bright lights, under the porch placed nearly twenty pairs of military boots, both new and old. Outside, Chen Xing called, "Is anyone there?" Not hearing the response, Chen Xing took off his boots to go up, pulled the sliding door, and "crashed". "Overthrow Fu Jian! Liberation and liberation..." Inside, the room was full of people sitting on the floor, the crowd was raging, and in the middle of the Shouting, the house was extremely sound-proof, but there was no voice inside and outside, and it was obvious that there was a meeting and a plot. Chen Xing: "Excuse me, do you need some tea?" I'll leave without you." Chen Xing decisively shut the door, the inside suddenly rushed out of a group of people, each knife out of the knife, the sword of the sword, out of the weapon frame on the neck of Chen Xing, Chen Xing has no power to resist, had to raise his hands, said: "I really didn't hear anything ah!" "Tianchi?" Feng Qianjun's voice wondered inside, "How did you get in?" Stop it! Our own people!" Chen Xing was carried into the room by the knife, and saw a wide bed in the middle of the deep, on the bed sat a man in his twenties with a wide robe and big sleeves, and Feng Qianjun was sitting beside the man, drinking against the short case. "Stop it." The man said, "Ask the little brother to come in." Said a glance Feng Qianjun eyes, Feng Qianjun slightly nodded, meaning no harm, beckoning Chen Xing over. Chen Xing with all the martial people let go, let him go to Feng Qianjun side. "There is not much time," said the man. "There is a guest, but there is no harm in listening. Let us go on to say that Xiangyang's misfortune was not caused by a momentary mistake..." Chen Xing looked at Feng Qianjun, see he has been different from the road, changed the body embroidered with leaves and flowers of the robe, the ring first knife placed in the central case several, in front of the man. This kind of flower robe, even if beautiful as a woman Xianbei people wear are boorish, but wear in Feng Qianjun, it is not abrupt, but strangely very suitable, naturally has a gorgeous to the extreme momentum. Chen Xing looked at the central man, and then looked at Feng Qianjun, Feng Qianjun whispered in Chen Xing's ear and said: "That is my brother, Feng Qian Yi." How can you break his eight-diagram system outside? Really underestimate you." Chen Xing: "I... I wandered off. What are you doing?" Feng Qianjun: "Plotting a rebellion, so obviously did not see it?" Chen Xing sincerely said: "See, now what stage?" Feng Qianjun: "There has been no progress, sad death, do not want to play with them." "Fu Jian's reversal of action has caused widespread anger and resentment among the Di, Xianbei and Xiongnu clans... No small talk down there, you two." Feng Qian Yi knocked on the table with a ruler in his hand, "The Great Shan outside the Fortress entered Chang 'an, releasing a clear signal, and perhaps soon, all the ethnic groups in the city will unite to overthrow Fu Jian..." Chen Xing heard here, the corners of his mouth twitched, and whispered to Feng Qianjun: "How do I see that their relationship is OK?" Brother Feng, are you sure this source is okay?" Feng Qian Jun quickly motioned to ask later, and Feng Qian Yi again said to the crowd: "Next, let my brother tell you what he saw and heard on the way from Xiangyang to Beijing." Feng Qianjun cleared his throat and began to describe the hostility of Hu people to Fu Jian in the Central Plains. Feng Qianjun said, Feng Qianyi added, Fu Jian in power for many years, according to the plan of the famous minister Wang Meng, set the so-called "honor Han and resist Hu" state policy, but not only did not please the Han people, but also offended their own backer Hu. Now the five Hu people complain, has begun to oppose Fu Jian. Daqin seemed to be strong and prosperous, but in fact, after the death of Wang Meng, the inner forces were intertwined and already teetering. The crowd heard the mood surging, as if as long as Feng Qianyi shouted, the entire Chang 'an city, regardless of Han Hu, would immediately rush into the imperial palace, the Fu Jian this faint king to pieces. Feng Qian Jun elaborated the complete after, not to judge, presiding over the meeting Feng Qian Yi is to stay in the hall again after quiet, the party said: "The situation is exactly like this, next, you in the Central Plains activities, the south allocated heavy money, support our drive to Xinghan cause, the next year, it is a critical moment, neglect shall not..." Perhaps due to the arrival of foreigners, perhaps the theme of today's meeting is not here, Feng Qian Yi did not mention too much rebel related, simply summarized the situation this month, looking forward to this year, the meeting. All the Jianghu warriors have risen to say goodbye, talk to Feng Qianyi is very respectful and polite, to Feng Qianyi is general, there seems to be a look of contempt. Treat all gone, Feng Qianjun will hold his brother up, on the side of a wooden wheelchair, Chen Xing this only found Feng Qian Yi legs can not act, someone to take care of. "Come, have some supper. You must be hungry." Feng Qianjun took the ring first sword and gave it to his brother, and Feng Qianyi put the precious sword on his lap and held it tightly. Feng Qianjun said to Chen Xing: "There are still a lot of things that must be sorted out with you." Three people along the hall corridor to leave, not to Chen Xing questions, Feng Qianjun will take the initiative to explain, Chen Xing party know, he actually accidentally, broke into the secret hall of pine and cypress house. "You... You are..." Chen Xing suspiciously looked at Feng Qianjun, think of the description of Feng Qianjun evaluation, sure enough, this Jianghu ronin is not simple. "HMM." Feng Qianjun smiled and said, "For the real identity of the brother, it is the little master of Xifeng Bank." My brother is the current head of the house. Songbai House and Xifenglian No. General Village open together, are my family's property." Feng kept silent and walked through the dark corridor in a spirit. Chen Xing looked around, through the corridor, and into the courtyard, here twists and turns mysterious, after turning the courtyard, is an area of nearly ten acres of the inn group, the inn group outside the strange shape of the pine tree, such as the dark guard here. Chen Xing's surprised heart, has been attracted by the environment of Xifeng bank, anyway, what the Feng brothers are not much of his business, the important thing is that three hundred years ago, Chang 'an Exorcism Department General Administration site is located where. From the looks of it, it's probably been transformed by the Feng family. Sitting in a wheelchair, Feng Qian Yi saw Chen Xing look, indifferent way: "Songbai house only receives Han people, the door is on the other side, behind this road, very few people walk." Feng Qianjun glance at the drawing in Chen Xing's hand, as if aware of what. After passing through the main hall of the Pine and Cypress House and coming to a secluded building, Feng Qianyi politely said to Chen Xingke: "The little brother is living with Shu Lu Kong Da Shan Yu, and he thought that he would come here today." "Well... he I don't really know him." Chen Xing thought in his heart, he just came to find the exorcism department of the old site, the result accidentally broke this group of people to discuss rebellion, how to get out of this, it will not pull me on your thief ship. Think of just Feng Qian Yi did not let him avoid, obviously is the name of the more know, the more difficult it is to withdraw the abacus, suddenly feel a little dangerous. Chen Xing is open-minded, many things are rarely confused, but people are not stupid at all, and said: "with Xiang Shu temporarily live, but also for one thing, after a few days, such as things to find out, I have to go, anyway in that group of Hu people, no matter what no one believes me, and I have a lot of things to be busy." Which means I don't have time to deal with you guys, and I'm not gonna talk to you, so you don't have to kill me. "May as well," Feng Qian Yi said, "originally also want to make thousands of Jun recommended, choose a day is not as good as bumping day, today you can come, is our fate." Chen Xing looked at Feng Qian Jun, Feng Qian Yi said: "I will go to make a little arrangement, Qian Jun, you and the exorcist to have dinner first." Chen Xing: "..." As soon as Feng Qianjun closed the door, Chen Xing suddenly glanced at Feng Qianjun and motioned for him to explain. Feng Qianjun helpless, no comment, slightly bowed, looking at Chen Xing, Chen Xing surprised: "How do your brother know everything?" How much did you tell him?" Feng Qianjun said, "Don't you know where this place is? What news in the world can hide from the master of the pine house?" Chen Xing: "What exactly do you do? It doesn't look like a tavern keeper to me." Feng Qianjun: "Honestly, don't be angry, brother, my family's main business is to open a bank and loan sharks." Chen Xing saw the building complex so grand, replied: "Sure enough, your family is very rich." When Chen Xing looked around, he saw Cao PI's paintings hanging on the walls and a screen of ink painting standing in the room. The servant sent the food box, Feng Qianjun sat down beside himself, lifted the boiling water on the stove to make tea, explained: "Sideline, Xifeng Bank, there is another function, that is, to probe the world's intelligence, from south to north, home and abroad, to the emperor's family affairs, small to the people of the eighteen generations of ancestors, as long as the money, we can investigate, there is no information the Feng family can not get." Actually or Chang 'an city intelligence chief, Chen Xing only feel this way is too small Feng Qianjun. Feng Qianjun made tea, made a "please" gesture to Chen Xing, and smiled: "So on the first day of arriving in Beijing, Xi Feng knew that the real identity of Xiang Shu was called Shu Lu Kong, and it was the youngest big single in the history of the ancient League." "... And that we had broken into the palace by night." Chen Xing said. "Well," said Feng Qianjun, "I know you tooIt is the only son of Chen Zhe, a scholar of Jinyang. When Yuwenxin was young, he learned art in your home. It is only a matter of the world. The thief God has no eyes, and the upright and upright gentleman never returns the good; The rat who has done all the wrong things and deserves to die is always..." Chen Xing sat down and smiled, "It's not appropriate to say that." We do things right because we think it's right, not because we want to get good results." Feng Qianjun first startled, and then smiled with relief: "Yes, yes." You see more than big brother." Then with a tentative look, Chen Xing asked: "That Yu Wenxin..." "Huh?" Chen Xing is thinking about how to open to find the exorcism site, it seems that it is not appropriate to be hard to rummage in other people's homes. Feng Qianjun observed Chen Xing look, the end suddenly said: "That's all, nothing, Yuwenxin in Chang 'an city on the deceptive deceiving, this person can not be deep friends, remind you a sentence." "I see that." Chen Xing frank way. Feng Qianjun quietly looked at Chen Xing, the eyes seemed to have unbearable color, Chen Xing did not pay much attention to this touch of fleeting pity, used dinner, drank tea, and finally cut to the point, to Feng Qianjun: "Brother Feng, to be honest, today rashly come here, there is a request." Do you remember what we were talking about on the road about the Exorcism Office?" As the words fell, the paper door was suddenly pulled open, and Feng Qian Yi said, "My brother has told me exactly." But he drove the wheelchair into the hall. Chen Xing perturbed: "This is really an unappreciated request..." "No." Feng Qian Yi into the hall, Feng Qian Jun will be silent. Feng Qian Yi Chen Xing said: "Day Chi, honestly, we Feng family in three hundred years ago, also was an exorcist pulse, everyone is a peer." Chen Xing: "!!" Chen Xing suddenly stood up, a face shocked to look at Feng Qian Jun, Feng Qian Yi is light way: "This is what I say 'fate'." Feng Qianyi pulled out the first knife of the knee ring, two fingers with the blade, and handed the handle to Chen Xing, saying: "This handle is the Han Dynasty left, handed down from generation to generation of treasure sword, ancient legend, the forest Vientiane sealed with green wood, when this world -" Chen Xing took the knife: "can make thousands of plants into soldiers, move the mountains, flat Xi valley." "You know? " Feng Qianyi's eyes suddenly lit up, with a surprised spirit. Chen Xing has read many magic weapons in ancient books, and Feng Qianjun met at first, too late to look at his sabre, and now took over in the hand, I saw a line of bell and drum text on the back of the knife: Sen Luo Vientiane.
