Rebirth of King Zhou

Chapter 11 Accompanying the Beauty in the Devil's Cave (This chapter is free)

See Meng Xingtong's captivating frown and smile, coupled with a graceful and moving figure.Azusa star package bestows the soul for about 3 minutes.

Suddenly thinking of a "broken shoe" that he had encountered in his "previous life", Zi Xing shuddered, and his mind suddenly cleared.

That "broken shoe" is a deep way.For the first time in Zi Xing's life, he suffered defeat, and it was at her hands.

"Broken Shoes" left quietly, and took away the five-figure money and things that Zi Xing "invested" in her, but left "depression" to Zi Xing.

"Broken Shoes" is naturally not as beautiful as Meng Xingtong, and it can even be said that they are not at the same level, and there is no comparison.

But there is one thing in common between the two girls, that is, when the two of them spoke seductive words, their eyes were calm from beginning to end, so calm to the point of coldness.They didn't put any emotion into it.

Realizing this, Zi Xing was a little disappointed.I thought to myself: If you don't talk about love, then just talk about benefits.I am determined not to let women fool me for a prostitute again.

"Don't ask too much. He has very little courage." Meng Xingtong said softly again.

Zi Xing glanced at her sideways, suddenly turned his face hard, and said righteously: "Although I am not rich enough to let you do whatever you want, but I am not poor enough to let you do whatever you want with me... "

Meng Xingtong's expression was obviously stunned.Unexpectedly, this domineering-looking young man in front of him could casually speak poetic and moving language.

"So," Zixing tried her best to make her eyes look deep and sad, and it would be better to turn into a lake of lovesickness that could "drown" a passionate woman: "So, please forget a name that is insignificant to you, and I, on the other hand, forgot an unattainable happiness..."

Experts outside the world?Talented?A prodigal son?

No matter what kind of identity it is, it is enough to make Meng Xingtong stand in awe.

She changed to a negotiating tone, and sighed: "For the past three years, I have been researching special 'drugs' to disperse the 'poisonous miasma'. There are some results, but the 'drug' effect is not particularly obvious. Far It is far inferior to the ready-made 'medicine' powder you just used, son."

As he spoke, he stared at Zi Xing earnestly.

The reason why she values ​​Zi Xing has been hinted very clearly.

Jiang Wenhuan was very concerned about politics, so he couldn't help but interjected and asked: "Sister Meng, you have devoted yourself to researching medicines to disperse poisonous miasma, but because of the war situation in the southwest? The Jiuli people have repeatedly invaded our Dashang border, Burning, killing, and looting are all kinds of evil. The imperial army conquered Jiuli several times, but they were all hindered by the "poisonous miasma" of the Li people. It is a great merit that Sister Meng can research the "medicine" to dispel the miasma for the court."

Jiang Wenhuan actually said those last words to Zi Xing.

He was reminding "His Royal Highness Shouwang" that this big business belongs to your family, so don't compare it to an irrelevant woman who is "patriotic".Although I don't know where Zixin got the special 'drug' powder to disperse the miasma, but it is estimated that this is the truth - Meng Xingtong will not "rely on" him for no reason.

Zi Xing pondered for a moment before speaking solemnly.

Give Meng Lingtong half a pack of "Hong Ling San", it doesn't matter, Zi Xing is afraid that she will chase after her for the "recipe".So he decided to put the ugliness first, "I can give you half a pack of 'Hong Ling San', but you can't ask for the formula. The stranger who passed me the 'Hong Ling San' warned me that once the formula of Hong Ling San is out of order If I vent, he will rush to cut off my tongue... I got half a pack of 'Hong Ling San', you can test the ingredients of the 'medicine' and calculate the formula yourself if you have the ability. But this half pack of 'Hong Ling San' can't be in vain Send it, I want to exchange it for two of your things..."

Meng Xingtong's face turned cold, and her charming gaze became as sharp as a knife.

Azusa also noticed the change in the beauty's expression.I thought to myself, why did my brother's language skills decline?After hearing what he said just now, the beauty would definitely think wrongly, thinking him as a wolf with a big tail who was about to tear off his disguise.

Zi Xing hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, I won't ask you to exchange yourself for half a package of 'Hong Ling San'. Hong Ling San is so precious, of course it must be exchanged in equal value..."

Huh, I seem to have said something wrong again.

"It turns out that the special 'drug' powder for repelling miasma is called 'Honglingsan'. I have been taught." Meng Xingtong said with a pretty face that was colder than ice and snow: "Of course Honglingsan is extremely precious. The quality of a girl's pu willow is not suitable to be exchanged for Hong Lingsan. I would like to ask the young master, what two things do you want me to exchange for it?"

Too much to say.Zi Xing quickly focused on the main topic: "First, I want a promise from you."

"How to say?"

Meng Xingtong, Zi Xing, and Jiang Wenhuan walked up to the second floor of the small building while talking in low voices, and walked into the small living room on the left side of the corridor.

The host and guest sat down on the futon and continued the topic just now.

Zi Xing said to Meng Xingtong: "I believe that you will be able to crack the formula of 'Hong Ling San'. I guess you will eventually dedicate this formula to His Majesty Emperor Yi to fight against the murderous Jiuli clan. I hope , can you mention it to His Majesty: You and the third prince Zi Xin worked out this formula together."

"Oh. So you belong to His Highness the Third Prince." Meng Xingtong suddenly said.

"Probably." Zi Xing didn't want to reveal his true identity to her, so he responded casually following her guess.

"Unexpectedly, the youngest son of His Majesty Emperor Yi has also started to build his own team. It is foreseeable that the 'war for the crown prince' is likely to turn into a bloodbath." Meng Xingtong sighed faintly.

Looking at Zi Xing with a half-smile, he teased, "However, the master you decided to follow has the weakest strength. No, even a 'boy scout' like you is recruited by him. If you want to come inside or outside the court, you don't have much real power." People look up to him and trust him."

Being underestimated by the beauty, Zi Xing felt very depressed for a while.

"It doesn't matter to me that I developed the formula of 'Hong Ling San' together with the third prince. But have you ever thought about it? His Majesty has never heard that King Shou has a talent in medicine. Hearing me suddenly, if His Majesty personally examines Shou Wang's medical knowledge..."

"I said, you worked out the formula together with the 'Shou Wang', which means please tell Your Majesty that all the funds for your research come from the living expenses saved by Shou Wang's frugality. His Highness Shou Wang has always been vigilant against Jiuli's wolfish ambitions, I wanted to relieve His Majesty's worries, so I found you so... Do you understand?"

Meng Xingtong looked at him a little bit dumbfounded.I thought: This kid is too good at fooling around, right?It is said that King Shou can eat ten catties of beef for a meal.Also "cutting down on food and clothing"!King Shou dared to make an exception to use his "baby soldier", but he is still a figure.Politically, it may not be without a fight.

"This is the first exchange condition, I agree." Meng Xingtong pursed her lips and smiled: "Go ahead. Let me see what weird requests you can make?"

"Second condition, I want you to have fifteen boxes of 'medicine' materials. I want those boxes to be useful. Of course, it is inconvenient to disclose the use right now." Zi Xing thought: With these fifteen boxes, All the conditions for dealing with Li Zhenchang were in place.

Meng Xingtong was obviously stunned.

It was not difficult for her to fulfill the first condition the other party raised, but it was of great benefit to the master he "turned to".

As for the second condition of "taking her fifteen suitcases", it was too unexpected.

What the hell is this cunning boy planning?

Meng Xingtong knew her own details: those dozens of boxes were brought back from the Western Regions by her.Foreign things, apart from the obvious exotic style of the carved patterns, are not considered expensive, and they are not worth much.

Unable to guess the boy's mind, Meng Xingtong had doubts, but was not embarrassed, and readily agreed to give him the box.

Find an empty room.Zi Xing took out "Hong Ling San" from the storage ring, evened out half a pack, and put it in an empty porcelain bottle.

There is half a pack of "Hong Ling San", put it back into the storage ring and put it away.

With the good intention of making a super bargain, he walked into Meng Xingtong's temporary residence with half a bottle of "Honglingsan".

Meng Xingtong put the fifteen boxes in the residence very carefully.

Stepping into the door, she saw Meng Xingtong and her maid, including Jiang Wenhuan, standing among piles of bamboo slips.

Beside the bamboo slips, there are a few wooden boxes with the locks and lids lifted—these are the boxes Zi Xing wanted.

Isn't the box used to hold 'medicine' materials?How come there are so many bamboo slips?

Seeing Zi Xing's doubts, Meng Xingtong explained: "In fact, there are only three boxes of medicinal materials in the fifteen boxes. The remaining twelve boxes are filled with records of various medicines. 'Fang's bamboo slips. It was very difficult for me to collect these three thousand folk prescriptions that were almost lost. Their value is much more precious than 'medicine' materials."

There are as many as twelve boxes of "'medicine' slips"!

It seems that there are a lot of them. It is estimated that in the era when the printing industry is developed, it is equivalent to the content of a "Compendium of Materia Medica".

For a while, Zixing missed the era when paper books could be bought everywhere.

Um.The Great Shang Dynasty with backward technology seems to have a "mysterious voice" calling, calling for me to be Cai Lun... Ah bah, not to be Cai Lun's dead eunuch, but to be a pioneer in the era of "inventing papermaking" !

Having said that, although the number of 'medicine' prescriptions recorded in the bamboo slips is only equivalent to a "Compendium of Materia Medica", Zi Xing believes that with Meng Xingtong's eyes, these 'medicine' prescriptions are absolutely hard to find.Although they are not the prescriptions of the immortal family, their profound impact on a country cannot be underestimated.

Zixing was tempted.

"These 'medicine' Janes, I have to look at them quickly, immediately, burn them all immediately." Zi Xingyu was not surprised and kept dying.

"Burn it?" Meng Xingtong was stunned for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, like a little female cat whose tail has been stepped on, it jumped up, bared its teeth and claws, and said angrily: "Do you know how much effort I spent to get these more than 3000 'medicine' prescriptions? Burn it all! You said it so lightly. Burn your head!"

"Didn't Jiang Yicheng already tell you about our plan? You and your people will act as 'bait' to go deep into the lair of the Chentang Four Tigers. Jiang Yicheng is also planning to devote all the official manpower he can mobilize to this battle ...In this way, the 'medicine' slips you put in this temporary residence are unguarded, and if they are passed by, it will be bad..."

"It's such a coincidence. Besides, I can leave a few bodyguards to guard 'Yao' Jane."

Jiang Wenhuan is worthy of being a "children" who grew up with Zi Xing, and he is "communicated" with him.Hearing Zi Xing's tone, he knew that this kid wanted to get Meng Xingtong's more than 3000 'medicine' prescriptions.

Although Zi Xing's overall plan cannot be guessed, this does not prevent Jiang Wenhuan from cooperating with Zi Xing's plan.

Jiang Wenhuan followed Zi Xing's wishes, and said solemnly to Meng Xingtong: "Sister Meng, just after you arrived at Chentang Pass three days ago, my subordinates captured two spies from the 'Jiuli tribe' After a few days of surprise interrogation, they finally pried their mouths open and learned of a big conspiracy. There is a team of Jiuli masters lurking in Chentang Pass. Their target is Sister Meng, your "medicine" Jane... I am here today In addition to recommending capable bodyguards to Sister Meng, I am also going to tell you about the Jiuli tribe, so I will remind you..."

Meng Xingtong was fooled by two delinquent boys, and her heart was heavy.

She frowned beautifully, and said with a bitter face: "I have only read half of the more than [-] 'medicine' prescriptions. Tonight, I will go to the lair of the four tigers in Chentang to start operations. How can one afternoon be enough?" Shall I write down all the contents of 'Medicine' Jane?"

Zi Xing thought to himself: I'm just waiting for your words.

"I can help you with this little matter." Zi Xing held his hands behind his back, with the demeanor of an ultimate master.

Meng Xingtong stared at Zi Xing, wondering if he should be labeled as "arrogant and ignorant" or "overthinking himself"?

Twelve boxes of "medicine" slips, more than 3000 "medicine" prescriptions, plus the young man in front of him does not study medicine, so he can only memorize the special terms in the "medicine" slips.The time left for reciting is only a short afternoon.

In addition, the accuracy requirements for reciting the "medicine" slips are extremely high, and it is really necessary to achieve "word for word".Because, the dosage of each herbal medicine in the 'medicine' prescription does not allow the slightest error, otherwise it may be disadvantageous to the person taking the 'medicine'.

If the young man in front of him could memorize all the content of the "medicine" slip under such harsh conditions, he would be a genius who meets once in 500 years—the "genius" who made her Meng Xingtong look extremely useless.

Zi Xing was too lazy to talk nonsense to her.

He casually picked up a bundle of 'medicine' slips, untied the tied strings, unfolded them, and glanced at them on the spot.

Then, coquettishly handed the "medicine" slip into Xingtong's hands, told her to read it carefully, and then, in a cadenced tone, wrote down the ten "medicine" prescriptions recorded in the bunch of "medicine" slips. , I recited it word for word.

Meng Xingtong was shocked.

Her close girl tightly covered her open mouth with her small hand, and looked at Zi Xing with a look of evildoers.

Jiang Wenhuan was also stunned.

After recovering after a long while, Meng Xingtong selected ten bunches of "medicine" slips in a row, all of which were formulas with obscure and difficult-to-remember herbal medicine names, and showed them to Zi Xing, and then asked him to recite them.

Still can't help Zi Xing.

The little girl didn't give up, and picked up the bunch of "medicine" slips that Zixing had recited before, and asked him to recite them again, so as to test whether he would forget the previous "medicine" slips as the amount of memory increased. prescription.

Zi Xing still couldn't stop him.

This time, even Meng Xingtong and Jiang Wenhuan felt jealous towards Zi Xing.

Zi Xing was very proud.I thought: My brother remembers that "sex" is not particularly prominent. In history class, the most troublesome thing is to memorize the times when those major historical events happened.These 'medicine' prescriptions are all about how much money, how much money... It's a hell if I can remember!But which one will not?Unless I can't recognize the characters of this world.Hmph, the longevity king who inherited most of my memory is not "illiterate"...

It turns out that, to put it bluntly, it is not surprising that "miracles" can also be obtained by cheating.

Azusa possesses the super information processor of "Frame", just unfold the content of the "medicine" slip and let it quickly scan it, and the content of the "medicine" slip will be "recorded" into the processor.

Zixing can watch it whenever she wants...

Deep night.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, which is not only a "killing night"; it is also a time when all dirty incidents occur frequently.

Zi Xing and Meng Xingtong rode in the same carriage, and there were more than ten carriages hanging behind the carriage.

A dozen locked wooden boxes were strapped to the top of these wagons.

A line of carriages went deep into a manor built in the outskirts.That is the lair of the Chentang Four Tigers.

Meng Xingtong and his party were "invited" to "negotiate the sale of 'medicine' materials" by nearly fifty members of the "Tiger Head Gang".

At this moment, dozens of bright torches were lit on a large barren slope at the back of Hutou Gang Manor, illuminating the place as if it were daytime.

The carriage drove to the barren slope and stopped.

There, there were four shirtless men sitting around a square table in a big way.It must be the Chentang Four Tigers.

In addition to the Chentang Four Tigers, there was also a large group of hooligans acting as their minions.
