dragon hunter

Chapter 364
I was sick with a high fever of 39 and a half degrees.

This is a very rare thing for me, who has strengthened my physical fitness many times.

The day after I got rid of the ancient corpses and returned home, I developed a high fever.

At first, I thought that I was infected with corpse poison, or that the ancient corpse had tampered with me before it died.

However, after checking my body many times, I found that apart from the inexplicable high fever, everything was normal, and I could even move freely like a normal person, without the drowsiness reaction caused by fever at all.

Doubtful, I called my second uncle, who was silent for a moment and said in an uncertain tone that my phenomenon might be a sign of the opening of the fifth hexagram of Qianlong.

I was stunned, the hexagram of the Qianlong tattoo, the later it is, the more difficult it is to open. I thought that after breaking through the fourth hexagram, My Life Mantra, there would be no breakthrough in the last one or two years. I didn’t expect it to be so fast. , it is necessary to open the fifth hexagram.

Immediately afterwards, I frowned, because the scriptures were incomplete, there were only the introduction of the first four hexagrams, and I didn't even know the name of the fifth hexagram of Qianlong.

I hurriedly asked my second uncle about the fifth hexagram on the phone. The second uncle smiled wryly and said that he knew nothing about the fifth hexagram of Qianlong. Some useful information.

My heart is so cold, this weird high fever has not subsided, although it does not affect my daily activities, but I can't keep burning like this, right?
As soon as I hung up the phone, I felt a strong dizziness in my mind. I quickly reached out to support the wall and sat on the edge of the bed so as not to fall.

I checked my body in horror, and found that my mental power was exhausted, and even the golden soul flame in the palace of life between eyebrows dimmed a bit.

I was a little horrified, I didn't expect this weird high fever, although it didn't affect my actions, but during the fever, the speed of mental energy consumption was several times that of normal.

In other words, usually I can only sleep for a few hours a day, but during a fever, in order to make up for the exhaustion of mental energy, I must sleep more than ten hours a day.

There was a knock on the door downstairs. After sitting for a while, I felt that my dizziness was better, so I hurried down to open the door.

Zhen Qingyi stood outside the door with a worried face, looking at me with concern, "I heard that you are sick, I'll come and take a look."

"It's Lao Xu's big mouth, right?" I smiled wryly, and stepped aside to let the other party enter the room.

On the night of the fever, Lao Xu called me and said that Lao Liu was going to treat us to dinner in order to thank me for helping him solve the case.

Distraught by the sudden onset of a high fever, I politely declined.

Unexpectedly, Ghost Detective Xu brought Lao Liu directly to the door of the small shop. Seeing my flushed face, they were shocked and wanted to take me to the hospital, but I refused.

Unexpectedly, Ghost Detective Xu would tell Zhen Qingyi about this later, and now she came to the door in person.

"Hurry up and sit down, let me see what's going on?" Zhen Qingyi reached out and touched my forehead.

"Oh, why is it so hot, you are the same, even if you don't go to the hospital, you can ask me to show you." Zhen Qingyi gave me a dissatisfied look.

"I thought I could bring down my fever." I looked embarrassed and explained.

Zhen Qingyi dragged me upstairs, first found a thermometer, took my temperature, and was startled by a high fever close to forty degrees.

Afterwards, she stretched out her slender fingers and rested them on my wrist, her delicate eyebrows became more and more wrinkled.

"How is it, have you seen any tricks?" I asked with concern.

"It's very strange, the five qi in the body are balanced, why does the high fever persist, shouldn't it be?" Zhen Qingyi muttered to himself.

I hesitated for a while, and told Zhen Qingyi about my second uncle's judgment. She was born in a medical school, so she might have a different opinion.

"That makes sense, but if you don't know how to activate the fifth hexagram, then this inexplicable high fever may last forever." Zhen Qingyi looked worried.

"But the inheritance has long been lost, where can I find the opening method of the fifth hexagram?" I sighed.

"I'll give you a few needles first, and it won't work if it keeps burning." Zhen Qingyi said, and took out a small wooden box containing gold needles.

I lay on the bed and let Zhen Qingyi get needles on my body. It was strange to say that after she finished a set of needles, the persistent high fever actually weakened a little.

I praised a few words, but Zhen Qingyi didn't have any joy on his face, and said with a worried face, this is just a temporary solution, not the root cause, if you want to stop the high fever from recurring, you still need to activate the fifth hexagram of Qianlong.

The two were at a loss when the second uncle called and just picked up the phone to connect, the second uncle said excitedly over there that he had found information about the fifth hexagram of Qianlong.

I cheered up and urged my second uncle to talk about it quickly, because I was worrying about this matter.

"In an ancient book, I found that one of the ancestors of our Zhang family had left a line of inheritance in a place called Panlong Town. Maybe they still have a complete record of Qianlong hexagram information. "The second uncle said on the phone.

"When did that happen? Isn't the Qianlong tattoo only inherited by the direct descendants of the Zhang family?" Doubt flashed in my eyes. Logically speaking, the secret map of the Qianlong tattoo is forbidden to be circulated.

"Probably more than 200 years ago, I didn't know until I read ancient books that our Zhang family still has map protectors." The second uncle was a little excited, and told his discovery on the phone.

I held my mobile phone and listened to my second uncle talking on the other end of the phone. I was more and more surprised.

It turns out that in the past, every dragon hunter who practiced the secret map of the Qianlong tattoo was qualified to choose a map protector as his guardian.

The ancestor mentioned in the ancient book, in a place called Panlong Town, chose a local family as his map protector, and left a legacy.

As a guardian, the guardian of the map is naturally not too unfamiliar with every hexagram of Qianlong's secret map. Although he can't practice it, he definitely understands the information about the fifth hexagram.

"It's been so long, who knows if that lineage is still there." I said not very optimistic.

"200 years is not too long. It is a matter of several generations. The other party's inheritance is likely to be preserved. It is always a clue." The second uncle comforted on the phone.

Zhen Qingyi heard my conversation with my second uncle from the side, picked up the phone, quickly searched for the word "Panlong Town", and then frowned.

"There is no place called Panlong Town, has the name been changed?" Zhen Qingyi whispered.

I froze for a moment, leaned over to look at her phone, and immediately asked my second uncle if there was any mention of Panlong Town in that ancient book.

The sound of flipping through the book came from the mobile phone. After a while, the second uncle said that he only knew that Panlong Town was in Yunxiang Province. As for the specific location, he did not mention it.

After chatting for a few words, I hung up the phone. Anyway, I found a clue.

"Give Lao Xu a call. He has a lot of connections. Maybe he knows where Panlong Town is." Zhen Qingyi took the phone and began to dial.

I just got the needles, and now the fever has basically subsided, but Zhen Qingyi said that if the root problem is not solved, the acupuncture effect will last for a day or two, and the high fever will come again.

I went over and pushed open the window, and leaned against the window to get some air. I have been bored at home for a day or two, and it was quite boring.

After Zhen Qingyi called Ghost Detective Xu, he came over and leaned on my shoulder lightly, telling me not to worry, Lao Xu will soon be able to find information about Panlong Town.

Unexpectedly, in less than a quarter of an hour, Ghost Detective Xu called back. Surprise flashed in my eyes. I knew he was efficient, but it shouldn't be so fast?
Ghost Detective Xu said on the phone that we were also lucky. It happened that Lao Liu had a comrade in arms who was born in Panlong Town. Otherwise, it would be really hard for us to find that Yunxiang Town, which has now been renamed Xinguang Town.

I was overjoyed, and immediately asked for the detailed address of Panlong Town. Ghost Detective Xu said that he would send a navigation map in a while, and the location of the town was quite remote, so I couldn't explain it clearly.

Zhen Qingyi searched on his mobile phone, maybe the town is too small to be found on the map.

Finally, a matter of concern was resolved. Although he was still far away from finding the information of the fifth hexagram, he finally had a direction.

Zhen Qingyi sat here for a while, said goodbye and left, I personally sent her downstairs and told her to be careful on the way.

"By the way, I'll go with you when we go to Panlong Town." Zhen Qingyi turned around and said something when he opened the car door.

"You have so many things to do in your company, isn't it good?" I feel that she is quite busy recently.

"That's it. Your high fever must be suppressed by acupuncture. Otherwise, if the fever continues, something will happen sooner or later." Zhen Qingyi made a domineering decision.

After watching her car turn the corner, I went back to the shop, closed the door, and sat on a chair to smoke.

Early the next morning, I received a phone call from Ghost Detective Xu, who asked if I was planning to go to Panlong Town.

I said that I had this plan, and asked a little strangely if there was anything wrong with him.

Ghost Detective Xu said that it wasn't that he had something to do, it was Lao Liu who asked me for help.

Just as he was talking, Lao Liu answered the phone over there, and he said in a short period of time that his comrade-in-arms in Panlong Town has encountered some troubles recently, which are related to supernatural events. If I plan to go there, can I go to his house to have a look? .

"What supernatural event?" I asked curiously. Although there is a little physical condition now, it does not affect the fighting skills.

"I can't explain a sentence or two. Let him find you in person when he reaches the ground." After Lao Liu finished speaking, he added, "Brother Zhang, please."

"Everyone goes through life and death together, we are all friends, don't talk about trouble." I said politely.

Originally planned to go alone, but Zhen Qingyi was worried about my physical condition and insisted on going with me.

When they were about to set off, Zhen Qingyi didn't know what Zhen Qingyi was thinking, and arrested Fatty Wang again, so the world of two became a threesome.
