Metaphysics, from getting started to giving up

Chapter 54

pain.

This was the only feeling Zhou Yi felt after waking up. He opened his eyes with some difficulty, only to realize that he had left the desert and was staying in a carriage at this time.There is a thick cushion under the body, which slightly relieves the pain caused by the toxin paralyzing the nerves.He turned his eyes slightly, and met the eyes of Xie Qianchou who noticed that he had woken up.

"Paper, are you... awake?" Xie Qianchou was stunned for a moment, then nervously took out a bag of clean water from the wall box in the carriage, unscrewed the plug, and brought the water bag to Zhou Yi's lips , "Drink some water first, there are pastries with a softer taste in the car, I will fill my stomach later, and when I enter the pass, I will find some white porridge to feed you."

Zhou Yi leaned on his lap, his mouth was very dry: "How long have I...been unconscious?"

He remembered that after explaining to Xie Qianchou what to do next in the desert, he passed out because of the poison of the sand scorpion.

"It's been almost two days, don't worry, we have left the desert and are now on our way back to the imperial city."

Xie Qianchou carefully fed him some water, but Zhou Yi was so weak that he couldn't use his strength at all, and he couldn't swallow the water.The clear water slid down his chin and dripped on the carpet in the compartment.

He paused, and simply drank some water to rinse his mouth first, then swallowed some water, and fed Zhou Yi to drink it mouth to mouth.

His throat was soaked, and Zhou Yi finally recovered.

Xie Qianchou supported his waist, let him sit up a little bit, pillowed on his chest, then stretched out his hand, and carefully massaged Zhou Yi's calf.After returning to the city wall of the fortress, the military doctor accompanying the army immediately treated Zhou Yi accordingly. Most of the toxins on his body were removed, and the remaining in the blood could not be eliminated, and the body could only wait for the body to repair itself.

"Does your leg feel okay? The military doctor said that your leg may lose feeling for a period of time. Let me massage it for you every day, which will help you recover." He said.

Zhou Yi glanced at him: "Why do I feel that you have become more courageous?"

In the past, although Xie Qianchou tried every means to take care of him and please him, but the other party always had a cautious attitude, and Shenlong didn't see the end, as if he was afraid that he would find him.

Why are you so bold now?

Xie Qianchou laughed.

"I haven't promised you yet, isn't it impolite to act rashly like this?" Zhou Yi remained expressionless.

Xie Qianchou thought he was angry, so he scowled and said, "Then you move back."

Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows, feeling that Xie Qianchou seemed to have changed a bit.

Looking at it, it is much more pleasing to the eye than the cowardly look before.

The recovery of the memory of the previous life, coupled with the danger in the desert, made Xie Qianchou finally understand that it is not a wise choice to blindly lie down and be small.

When he was still the third prince, it was because he was too inferior to his own birth that he was so timid. He didn't even dare to resist the imperial power until his death. He stood in the sun and appeared in front of Zhou Yi, and could only watch him fall down. .

If he was a little bit tougher, he might be able to lead an uprising and overthrow the tyranny.Even if he will end up dead in the end, he can at least have a chance to stand on the same level as Zhou Yi and make the other party face himself.

He felt that he had figured out a lot.

He was born with unlucky luck for committing seven kills, but after living in the Jindu Taoist sect for so many years, he also understands that the so-called mystic arts have always been recommended for the purpose of controlling destiny.

So what about the bad luck, he used to just accept all the injustices resignedly to his fate.

But now, how lucky he is to meet Zhou Yi again.

The malice and injustice in the past are just the driving force for him to go further. He will take back all the things that God failed to give him with his own hands.

From the closet where the water bag was taken out, he found a bottle of safflower oil. Xie Qianchou poured some oil into his hand, and continued to press Zhou Yi's calf seriously.

Looking at him, Zhou Yi couldn't help but reach out and stroke the black hair on his head.

"What's wrong?" Xie Qianchou asked with concern, "Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Zhou Yi turned his head away: "Didn't you let me move back?"

"Scrap..."

"You are called a soul!"

"No...that's right, the tips of your ears are red."

"……To shut up!"

***

Five days later, the two returned to the imperial city smoothly.

Along the way, Zhou Yi and Xie Qianchou also discussed the current situation: One thing is clear now, that is, this world should not be the past in the past, but the ghost of the prince Chenghui. The real body should still be on the set, and the situation at this time is more like Huangliang Yimeng.

If he finds a way to get rid of Prince Chenghui, maybe he can break the situation and return to modern times.

Xie Qianchou also told Zhou Yi his real identity, and even his unlucky birth, which made Zhou Yi feel a little bit shocked by his tragic bad luck again.

Due to Xie Qianchou's status, the two separated before arriving at the imperial city.

Although Xie Qianchou is a fake prince and not the old emperor's blood relative, at least his mother's side is a blood relative.His mother's concubine's natal family and his real father's family, one side is a veteran of many dynasties, while the other side is a dragon general, if they really want to rebel, although it may not be possible to overthrow the old emperor, it is no big deal to kill the prince completely question.

Anyway, he just wants to be with Zhou Yi forever, even if this nightmare world really exists, he has no interest in becoming emperor.

When Xie Qianchou contacted his relatives to arrange secretly, Zhou Yi was not idle either.

While continuing to be his national teacher, making weather forecasts every day to keep the old emperor in check, he was also trying his best to trick the prince.

Zhou Yi wants to cooperate with Xie Qianchou both internally and externally to completely get rid of the prince, the lingering ghost.

And the opportunity is right in front of you.

The "Prince" marched in person and defeated Ximan, which made the government and the people applaud. Even the old emperor was very satisfied. He specially pardoned the world and held a grand state banquet, preparing to let the world celebrate the victory of the war together.

As a national teacher, Zhou Yi naturally had to divination for the old emperor and calculate the auspicious days for the feast.

At the time of the state banquet, the guards must be negligent.

After all, for the current dynasty, the biggest confidant enemy is Ximan.Now that the Western Barbarians have been defeated, and there is no strong enemy under the whole country, it will naturally make the entire government and the opposition lower their guard.

At this point, it's time to start.

***

Ye Minglang slapped Huang He: "Let's make you salty, make you salty! What should we do now, the fuck is gone!"

Huang He hit back with a backhand: "Shut up, shut up, shut up, live fish will worry about dead fish, I just want salted fish!"

"You two hundred and five!"

"Bounce! Double by the way!"

"Doubling again and anti-rebound!"

"Bounce back!"

The two seemed to be back in elementary school, and after scolding a few times, they realized that they were too naive, so they had to stop pinching each other embarrassingly.

Hiding in a dark alley, Ye Minglang fiddled with the compass in his hand for a long time before he said uncertainly: "I still haven't found the whereabouts of the shadow guard pretending to be the prince..."

Huang He flinched on the ground in frustration.

In the desert before, the two decided to become Erwuzi and rebel against the prince Chenghui.Unexpectedly, for the sake of safety, they packed up and entered the desert after nightfall to look for the shadow guard.Unexpectedly, Xie Qianchou and Zhou Yi had already met at a place thousands of miles away from Huang He and Xie Qianchou at this time, so Xie and Huang naturally missed out.

The task failed, and Erwuzi didn't make it. In desperation, the two had no choice but to run away first.

Relying on the talisman in Ye Minglang's hand, he avoided the prince's dogs and horses.

Unlike Zhou Yi and Xie Qianchou, the two of them realized that this world was an illusion created by Prince Chenghui, and they thought they were really dreaming back to ancient times.Without a clue, Ye Minglang and Huang He had no choice but to focus on the shadow guard who was suspected to be from the Taoist sect of Jindu.

just.

Under Ye Minglang's prediction, the two followed the clues and found the vicinity of the imperial city.But Ye Minglang didn't know that the shadow guard was Xie Qianchou himself, and without the help of the exact birth date, he could only roughly deduce the general movement of the shadow guard.

In the huge imperial city, at the foot of the emperor, how easy is it to find a shadow guard who has a close relationship with the prince and was even conspired to get rid of by the prince?The two fell into a stalemate for a while.

In desperation, Ye Minglang and Huang He had no choice but to settle down in an inn near the imperial city, ready to take a step at a time.

Unexpectedly, that night, things turned around.

After dark.

Ye Minglang lay on the bed, sound asleep.Although he and Huang He were the prince's former subordinates, they didn't bring any money when they ran this time, and they were quite shy in their pockets. In order to save money, they only needed a room.With good luck, he was lucky enough to win Huang He at the boxing game, and then he was able to sleep on the bed, leaving Huang He to sleep on the floor bitterly.

While half dreaming and half awake, he suddenly heard a voice that was a little old but full of vigor.

"Mingming, Minglang, can you hear me?"

Ye Minglang smacked his mouth: "Huh? An old man?"

other side:"……"

The corner of his mouth twitched, Chang Chang suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and said patiently: "I received the news from Qingkong, and hurried to Yaodu. Now, several fellow Taoists from Yaodu Daomen have assisted me, It has been sealed by Shen Du, the evil that entered his body. However, the evil attached to him has eroded Shen Du's soul, and pulled you, as well as those people on the set, into the illusion created by him middle."

"This illusory method is extremely clever. People from the Dao Association have made an appraisal. It is probably from a master of Xuan Dao. I did not expect that there would be such a depraved member of the Xuan Dao in the world. Listen carefully now, Mingming, you must Find a way to bruise the evil in this illusion before Shen Du's soul is completely engulfed by the evil, so that it is possible to break free from the illusion and wake up again."

"And that filth..."

Ye Minglang turned over, thinking he was dreaming: "What's wrong?"

"The real body of evil in the illusion is the current prince Chenghui. You have to find a way to destroy the prince!"

Bang!

Ye Minglang was awakened by fright, and fell off the bed.
