Jianming Chaos

Tai Shixiang finally showed a satisfied expression, showed the two heads of the double-headed whip, and asked: "Do you know why this whip has a dragon's head on one side and a snake's head on the other?"

Zhiming shook his head.Tai Shixiang explained: "The dragon's head represents justice, and the snake's head represents evil. This whip symbolizes everyone's heart. There are both good and evil in people's hearts, but the proportions are different. At the same time, they will fluctuate with changes in the environment. Justice dominates. people, generally make good people; and vice versa."

Zhiming had a question mark on his face. He didn't know why he said this, but he still said politely: "I also want to find an opportunity to learn the philosophy of life from Master Xiang, but at present, I still hope that Master can tell me Cai Yan's whereabouts first, after all Saving people is the most important thing, and the philosophy of life can be discussed in another day."

Tai Shixiang smiled and said: "You are quite interesting. If my father is still alive, he would like to make friends with 'solitary heroes' like you. You remind me of a person, a descendant of the ancient Persians."

"A descendant of the ancient Persians?" A figure flashed in Zhiming's mind, "His name is Yulong?"

Tai Shixiang was taken aback, and said, "Yes, you also know him?"

"It's hard to say. The relationship between me and him can be summarized as: we don't know each other without fighting." Zhiming made a long story short.

"The world is so small. A few years ago, he met my father in Jianchang County, when I was young. Later, my father introduced him to join Shanyue, and we have never seen each other since then." Tai Shixiang recalled the past.

"So he joined Shanyue with the help of your father!" Zhiming suddenly realized.

"That's right, it seems that you know all about it. My father was kind to Shanyue and wrote a letter of introduction for him; with this letter in hand, he had a chance to be taken in by Shanyue. In fact, I already saw at that time that he had great ambitions." .” Tai Shixiang said.

"Why did your lord say that?" Zhiming wanted to know the reason.

"You can tell from the lines in his words. Yulong is a very ambitious person. Although he comes from a foreign country, he also hopes to establish his own world in this foreign land." Tai Shixiang put down his whip and said , "It just seems that he has been quiet for many years and disappeared in the Jianghu. Am I wrong?"

"Why do I remind adults of him?" Zhiming asked again.

"There are many similarities between you and him, including the understanding and application of moves; and I can see that you also have certain ambitions." Tai Shixiang said bluntly.

"Am I ambitious?" Zhiming couldn't laugh or cry, "Where did I get the ambition? I'm just a pawn in Liu Bei's army, thinking about how to help the lord conquer the world."

"Come on, I'm very accurate in seeing people. You are definitely not an ordinary pawn. Anyway, in life, who doesn't have ambition? My father has it, and so do I." Tai Shixiang said mysteriously, "You know my ambition What is it?"

"What is it?" Zhiming was quite curious.

"That's right..." Tai Shixiang quickly changed his words when he saw someone coming, "Hero Lei's martial arts are really good, I have learned it! Next time I have a chance to compete!"

"Master Xiang, the carriage is waiting outside the mansion, please prepare to leave." The soldier came in and reported.

"Okay, I see. Let Yufu wait a moment, and I will change into my clothes." Tai Shixiang asked the soldiers to step back, wiped off his sweat, and said, "Hero Lei, I have learned a lot today. Thank you for coming. I am deeply aware of my own shortcomings. This double-headed whip can actually exert greater power, but the time is too short and it is too late. I always feel that the two of us have some similar experiences. How about finding a chance to have a drink another day? "

"Of course it's okay, but the top priority is, I have to find Cai Yan as soon as possible, and I hope Lord Xiang will give you some advice." Zhiming put his sword back into its sheath, and clasped his fists in begging.

Tai Shixiang was also a trustworthy person, and said: "After I brought her back, I gave it to Lord Sun Quan; if I guessed correctly, she should live near the Lord's bedroom."

"Could it be that General Sun... took a concubine?" Zhiming didn't know if this statement was correct.

"You think too much, the lord will not do this, he just cherishes his talent, and...even if he wants to accept, he will not accept a woman older than himself? With all due respect, I always feel that Cai Yan's accent It's a little strange, not like a native of the Central Plains. Although she has been silent on the way back, as soon as she speaks, I can always feel a strong foreign accent. Others may not feel it, but my feeling is more sensitive than ordinary people. Could it be that after staying abroad for a long time, the accent has become localized?" Tai Shixiang expressed his feeling.

"Master Xiang is too worried. She has lived overseas for ten years, so it's normal for her to be assimilated." Zhiming didn't want to reveal the true identity of "Cai Yan" to anyone.

Tai Shixiang didn't think too much, and said: "Hero Lei, I can tell you the location of General Sun, but please promise me that you will never hurt my lord. As for how to take Cai Yan away, I hope you can use it." A peaceful solution that must not be taken by force."

"Don't worry, I'm only here to save people, and I will never hurt General Sun. You don't need to point out the route. I went to him alone before." Zhiming thanked him with cupped fists.

"Have you ever gone to find him alone? It's amazing. If you have the opportunity to come to our mansion for a drink, then I will tell you about the origin of this whip." Tai Shixiang already regarded the other party as a friend.

"No problem, I'm very interested in this, and I will have a drink with Mr. Xiang in the future. Let me take my leave!" Zhiming left Taishi's mansion and went straight to the imperial study.He concluded that Sun Quan would return to the imperial study to sort out the documents after finishing his morning court.

Things went well, and Zhiming met Sun Quan alone just like last time.

Sun Quan expressed his surprise at his "visit" and said, "General Lei, this is not the first time you have trespassed on this palace. I know that you are highly skilled in martial arts, but you can't treat this place as an inn. You can come and go freely!"

"General Sun, please forgive me! I have no choice but to take the liberty to come here, and I hope Mr. Ming will forgive me!" Zhiming knelt on one knee and clasped his fists.

"Let's talk after getting up." Sun Quan didn't dare to offend the other party, and asked, "What is General Lei looking for?"

Zhiming stood up, straight to the point: "I want to find Cai Wenji."

Sun Quan's eyes flashed, and he stroked his purple beard lightly, and said, "Cai Wenji? Didn't she marry outside the Great Wall early in the morning? You came here to find her?"

Zhiming saw from his eyes that he had found the right person again, and said, "Minggong, please don't hide it from me, I know she is here. Please ask Minggong to borrow Wenji for a while, and I will use her to save a friend's life." !"

"Save people?" Sun Quan remembered the last time he came to borrow the crystal ball, "The last time you came to find the orphan ball, it should be to save people, right? This time you came to find the orphan to save people again?"

"Exactly. Please, Mr. Ming, please fulfill me! After saving my friend, I will definitely find a way to send her back!" Zhiming can't guarantee whether he can send her back, so that's all he can say at the moment.

Sun Quan was silent for a moment, and said: "General Lei, it's actually like this. After she was sent, for some reason, she suddenly fell into a coma, as if she had been cursed."

"What do you mean? She fell into a coma?" Zhiming was startled.

"Yes, strictly speaking, it was a state of deep sleep, because her breathing was steady, as if she was asleep, but no matter how much she screamed, she couldn't wake up. We thought she was pretending to be asleep at the time, and tried many methods, including some... no I tried all the elegant methods, but she still didn't wake up. In the end, we all agreed that she was cursed; unless the person who cast the curse can be found, she will never wake up." Sun Quan said with a frown.

"What's going on here? Logically speaking, she should be safe here!" Zhiming couldn't figure it out, and asked again, "General Sun, after she is sent, who can contact her?"

Sun Quan thought for a while and said, "Except for Gu, the only ones who can touch her are some maids and attendants. Ordinary people are not allowed to approach her."

"Including...Princess Sun's maid?" Zhiming initially suspected that it was the shadow assassin.

"That's not true, Shang Xiang's maid will not take care of other people." Sun Quan denied it.

"It doesn't seem to be caused by Zhou Yu. It's strange, who would cast a curse on her?" Zhiming fell into deep thought.

"Who is General Lei planning to use her to save?" Sun Quan was curious.

"A martial arts teacher and friend of mine is currently suffering at the headquarters of the White Tigers. Their leader said that Cai Wenji must be brought there before my friend can be released." Zhiming didn't want to hide it anymore. The last time he borrowed the crystal ball , Sun Quan has been very helpful.

"Oh? Could it be that Cao Cao wants to take her back?" Sun Quan denied it as soon as he finished speaking, "Impossible! How did Cao Cao know where she was? Ten years ago, almost everyone thought that she was still in the hinterland of the Huns. "

"I don't know the details. Anyway, I have to take her to the headquarters of the White Tigers to save my friend." Zhiming looked at Sun Quan with persistent eyes, and vowed not to give up until he achieved his goal.

"Now that she has the technique of deep sleep, even if Gu agrees, you can't take her away!" Sun Quan spread his palms.

"It's okay to take her away, but I don't understand, who will attack her? If you want to kill her, it's impossible to cast such a spell on her....By the way, doesn't she need to eat and drink during her deep sleep?"

"Gu tried to get someone to feed her, but it was unsuccessful. If this continues, I'm afraid she will die in her sleep." Sun Quan worried.

"Did Tai Shixiang send people here?" Zhiming asked.

"That's right, you also know Yuan Fu (Tai Shixiang's character). Gu was quite surprised at the time. Why did Yuan Fu go overseas to save people for no reason? I found out later that when he was young, he was taught by his father Tai Shi. The kindness of the public told him that when he succeeds in his studies in the future, he must find an opportunity to go to sea and bring Wenji back to Han. Unexpectedly, he kept this matter in his heart, and he really did it!" Sun Quan admired Taishi shared the courage.

"Just because you heard what your father said when you were young, you are willing to risk your life to go abroad to save people?" Zhiming thinks this reason is too frivolous.

"He is a man of great conviction. As long as it is the goal he wants to achieve, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, he will find a way to get it done." Sun Quan is very clear about Tai Shixiang's character.

"That's right. Can I go see Wenji?" Zhiming asked.

Sun Quan thought for a while and said, "It's okay. I'll take you there."

Without any entourage, Sun Quan took Zhiming to a place called "Yongnan Hall" behind the imperial study room, and said, "Wen Ji is lying in it."

Zhiming followed Sun Quan into Yongnan Hall, entered the bedroom, and saw a sleeping beauty.She breathes evenly, sleeps peacefully, and sleeps gracefully, just like an ordinary napper, without any sign of being cursed.Zhiming had to admit that Jiuyin's head-changing technique was perfect, with no flaws visible.

"Is she Wenji?" Zhiming asked even though he knew that the person in front of him was not the deity.

"That's right, she is Cai Wenji who was sent overseas ten years ago." Sun Quan looked at the sleeping "Cai Yan" helplessly, and said, "It has been the third day since she was sent here, and she was fine when she first arrived. Suddenly I couldn’t wake up from sleep, at first I thought it was because of acclimatization, but I didn’t expect..."

"Could it be that the queen cast a spell? The key point is why did she do this?" Zhiming thought hard, but still couldn't figure out the mystery.

"Even if I pinch her hard now, she won't wake up." Sun Quan said slightly disappointed.

"She might need some stimulation." Zhiming said casually.

"What do you mean?" Sun Quan didn't understand.

"Let me try it." Zhiming put his palm on her forehead, trying to send some energy to help her regain consciousness.

"Cai Yan"'s eyelids moved, and seemed to be waking up.Zhiming tried to send more energy there, but seeing that his forehead started to sweat, fearing that his brain would be overloaded, he had no choice but to stop.

"Cai Yan"'s tensed brows slowly relaxed again, and continued to sleep peacefully.

"I can't help it. I can't wake her up. It seems that 'the person who untied the bell has to tie it'." Zhiming shook his head and said.

"What were you doing just now? I feel like you are using a spell." Sun Quan was very curious.

"It's not a magic spell. I just want to send her some internal energy to see if I can wake her up. It seems that my skill is still shallow, and I still have to find the source of her deep sleep." Zhiming looked around and said, "General Sun, I have an unfeeling request, can you please avoid it for a while?"

"Another merciless request, you said the same thing when you asked Gu to borrow the ball last time." Sun Quan didn't mind too much, turned around and walked to the door, and said, "Don't take too long, Gu is waiting outside the door." .”

"Xie Minggong understands." Zhiming waited for him to go out, closed the door gently, took out the Sun Bead Box, and placed it next to "Cai Yan"'s forehead.

The solar energy seeping out of the box entered "Cai Yan"'s brain, and her eyelids began to move again, this time even more. Although she didn't open her eyes, it could be seen that her consciousness had become active. state.

"It's really effective!" Zhiming thought excitedly, "Maybe the Queen cast the Sleeping Curse on her in advance to let me wake her up. Now this Sun God Orb is the 'antidote'!"

"But, something is wrong!" He thought again, "I hadn't even been to the palace when she was taken away, so how could the queen predict what happened next?"

No matter what, Zhiming had to wake him up first.He originally wanted to take out the divine orb directly, but he was afraid that the space here was small, so he accidentally turned the bedroom into a melting pot.
