Chapter 6
The matter was checked very quickly, and all the disciples who had thousands of flowers in the register had traces to follow.Later, no one deliberately erased Qiu Xi's past, but it was a long time ago, and few people who knew it took a little longer.
According to the online newspaper, the daughter of the Qiu family, Wu, was born in the 13th year of Kaiyuan and grew up on the banks of the Wei River.After the Wei River fell into the city, the clan members were killed, and they left the hometown with their parents. On the way, they encountered a plague and both parents died.In the 28th year of Kaiyuan, she joined Wanhua as a teacher. She was a female disciple of Danqing under the sect of the painter Lin Baixuan, and she also studied pharmacology.Five years later, that is, four years after Tianbao, he left Wanhua as a teacher.
Traveling all the way west, he collected wind and studied pharmacology in Kunlun Mountains.Met A Cen, and later returned to Chang'an with A Cen to get married.But she left suddenly one year later, gave birth to a stillbirth in a hurry the next year, and died a few years later.
That is to say, Wan Hua became a teacher of Qiu Yu when he was 15 years old.Back then, she followed the rules of the teacher's school and went to the rivers and lakes to practice after she became an adult. She was 20 years old.Later, he met A Cen, his master and apprentice, on the Kunlun Mountains, and then returned to Chang'an with A Cen to marry and settle down.In the sixth year of Tianbao, Qiuxi left and returned to Wanhua to live alone.Half a year later, she gave birth to a stillborn baby, lived alone for about five years and died.At that time, it was roughly the autumn of Tianbao's 12th year, and Qiu Xi had just turned 28.After returning to Ten Thousand Flowers Valley, she did not find any abnormalities, or contact with any suspicious person.She had no heirs all her life, and she had no disciples or descendants to live with after her death. The only one she married was A Cen.
Zhang Yuanshan looked at the note in his hand and frowned, thinking, he didn't know if it would be useful to Master.But he knew that the great master must not have known that Qiu Xi was pregnant when he left, otherwise he would not have let her leave alone.
The old cat frowned when he heard the report. He rested his fingers on the small table, arched his index finger unconsciously, and tapped the table with his nails.Leaving in a hurry while pregnant, it is impossible for her to know about it as a medical student.Half a year later gave birth to a stillbirth, stillbirth...
The old cat thought about it not only did not solve the mystery, but frowned even deeper. It just so happened that in that year, the little senior brother died, and the teacher's wife's child also died.Is this really a coincidence?The teacher is thin but not weak, even if she gave birth to a stillborn baby, it would hurt her vitality, and she would die in just five years?At that time she was not yet 30 years old!
Mistress, is it really because the master became decadent because of the death of the little brother that he couldn't bear it and left?
A few days later, another person sent the news that Master Zeng's family background had been found out.
The old cat was surprised that the master had a hereditary title, although it was no longer a big deal in his generation, but the mansion is still in Chang'an, and it stands to reason that it should be faster than a Wanhua who died 15 years ago. There are many things to check for disciples, but now... the old cat thought for a while and didn't say anything, just motioned Zhang Yuanshan to read the note to him.
After listening to it, the old cat fell into deep thought, as if he always felt that he had grasped something, but when he looked carefully, he found that there was nothing in his hand.Not only did he not grasp anything, but he also found out that all the clues were broken, as if they had nothing to do with each other.The old cat was skeptical, feeling something was wrong.
Master Cen, his ancestors experienced three dynasties, he was a close minister of the former dynasties, and later he was reused by Emperor Taizong and awarded hereditary titles.However, the descendants withered, and the direct line only had one son and one daughter, and the direct son also made achievements, and was named Duke of the State by the Wu family.It's just that after this important minister, the heirs withered, so that there is only one old mansion left in the Duke's Mansion, which was in the limelight back then, and there is only A Cen in the direct line.Now that the master is over half a century old and still has no heirs, he should die here.Such a lineage of important ministers who founded the country actually declined and died out within a hundred years.
"Only these?" The old cat felt the lifeblood of the master's family in his heart, but he was worried. There were no clues at all. With just a few doubts, what could he find out?What happened back then?
Zhang Yuanshan nodded, took a step forward, held Lao Mao's hand, and used his finger as a pen to write a word in his palm.
虞
It should be the surname of the master, that is... the surname of the ****.
Surname Yu?The old cat raised his eyebrows. If he guessed correctly, the elder of the three dynasties was also surnamed Yu, so it should be that one.It is said that although the teacher of the master has a soft and timid appearance and is too weak to wear clothes, he has a strong temperament and dares to speak out.This is in line with Master's upright and upright temperament.Thinking of this, the old cat shook his head and smiled, the master is so upright, the brother's intentions, I am afraid it will be difficult...Senior brother? !
This thought flashed through, and many thoughts came to my mind, what is it worth for the senior brother to hold the sword and go to see the teacher's wife?Let her quit because she loves Master?Impossible!If Senior Brother is such a hard-hearted person, how could he have been helpless to Master all these years?So something unspeakable must have happened that year.Brother, it is to protect Master!
To protect Master?
Is it? !
The old cat made up his mind, and immediately ordered Zhang Yuanshan to find someone to check, and he also contacted a friend.After the old cat left Chang'an, he wandered around and made many friends in the rivers and lakes.One of them saw that his face looked more like a person from the Western Regions, so he asserted that the old cat belonged to the Western Regions.Although the old cat has no intention of looking for relatives, it doesn't matter if a friend introduces him.After chatting with those people, I should be a relative of the Mingjiao clan.The old cat didn't care about it, unlike Lu Mingzhi who was born in Mingjiao and grew up in the desert.He has a deep respect for the Sacred Fire Sect of the Western Regions.In addition to his face and blood, he grew up in the Central Plains and was taught by his master. He is already a "Central Plainsman" through and through.
At the moment, it is only recommended by ordinary friends, and I don’t feel too cordial. After getting along, I also feel that it is suitable, so I have been playing pretty well.They regarded the old cat as a member of the clan, so naturally they did not shy away from it. They practiced martial arts together and played tricks together.Later, three of them merged several sporadic forces and opened up the assassination business in partnership. The old cat found it interesting and played with it a few times.Assassination, in other words, is a killer move that kills in one move while lurking.But it doesn't just refer to the simple business of cultivating killers to kill people.Killing always needs a reason, they do the work directly without asking the reason, but the background of both parties must be found out before they can take over, so their ability to pass on information and investigate is considered first-class.Only with background lurking can we kill people invisible and not cause trouble to buyers, so we must have considerable skills and resources.
They will definitely be able to find a lot of esoteric sects, and this is not a complicated matter, so asking them to look it up is definitely not wrong.So the old cat went in person, and it happened that an old friend of his was stationed in Chang'an in person, so he agreed.
Back then, the second senior brother's sudden emergency, and his teacher's wife gave birth to a stillbirth and her body was ruined. These symptoms are not so much serious illnesses, but... more like poisoning.From this point of view, the second junior brother's death must have something to do with his wife.
Once there is a direction, it is easy to prove it. After this, the two parties made an in-depth investigation, and many details surfaced, making the past more and more clear.As the old cat expected, an unknown person did appear in Chang'an 20 years ago, but disappeared by himself not long after.These were not put on the bright side, but a few of them sneaked into the capital, and in the end they alarmed the hidden situation of all parties at that time.And among the several forces merged by the assassination organization, some have a long history and then gradually declined. The collection of information and the assassination are mutual. It is not surprising that some people know about this.
Lao Mao thanked his old friend and took Zhang Yuanshan back.As he walked, he thought about the relationship between these things, Zhang Yuanshan only followed behind, fearing that he would stumble and wanted to help him see the way.
The old cat sorted out the matter in a general way, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt cold.Back then, it should have been because the master had a hereditary title, and someone seemed to be planning to impersonate him to do something, so the original owner had to be killed.
Ah Cen's own martial arts are not weak, and Zong Xun is also considered to be a little successful, so if he does something rashly, he will definitely alarm the government.Finding an assassination organization is easy to leave a clue, not to mention whether the assassination organization will use it as a threat, the process of using other people's hands is too much and the process is too cumbersome.So they sent someone to threaten Qiu Yun directly.Qiu Xi had just met Ah Cen and the others at that time, and compared to a fellow traveler, his own life must be more important, and he could not compromise.Besides, they should not have issued a killing order at the beginning, otherwise there would indeed be too many opportunities to kill with poison along the way.But he never thought that in the end, Qiu Xi would actually fall in love with this pure and clean Taoist priest.
Qiu Xi didn't want to help the king to do evil any more, and agreed to A Cen to go back to Chang'an with him to get married.At this time, those people suddenly demanded that Qiuxi kill Ah Cen, and promised to let her go as long as they killed Ah Cen.The old cat guessed that A-Cen was sent to Huashan when he was young, and he left Beijing when he was young, even if he came out of Chunyang, it has been several years.Surely not many people could remember his appearance, so killing him on the way back to Beijing at this time, and then pretending to return to Beijing by using the information that Qiu Yu sent on weekdays, there must be no omissions.
But at this moment, Qiu Xi had already made a lifelong promise with Ah Cen, how could he be willing to kill him?Qiu Xi no longer accepts the threats from those people and insists on marrying Ah Cen.But they didn't expect them to arrest the second apprentice to test the medicine, and Qiu Xi was helpless.At this time, Qiu Yu frequently went out quietly at night, and the master and apprentice didn't even notice it. Only Zong Xun saw something was wrong.Thinking about it, the second apprentice had an emergency at that time and visited famous doctors but couldn't find out. He was already anxious, but he treated Qiu Yu as his family and didn't take precautions against her.Who would have thought?It's just that Zong Xun has always been careful about A-Cen's affairs, so it must be strange for his wife to go out quietly at night frequently.It's just that I don't know whether it was by following Qiuyu or by inquiring, and finally Zong Xun intervened in this matter.
They planned to ambush and kill Ah Cen on his way back to Beijing, but they didn't want to be delayed by Qiu Xi, and finally Ah Cen returned to Chang'an and got married.Stay with A Cen for one more day, and the person who pretends to be a counterfeiter will be more exposed.They jumped the wall in a hurry, but when they killed people in Chang'an City, they killed a nobleman with a title.Even though the Yu family has declined, once this matter is publicized, they will definitely not be able to make any more tricks.So I can only test the poison for the second apprentice and threaten Qiu Xi.But he didn't want to disturb Ah Cen's big apprentice, and somehow Zong Xun took action to finish him off and make him frightened.
Those people thought that Ah Cen was a master and they didn't dare to be presumptuous, but they didn't expect Zong Xun, a child, to be so ruthless.Thinking about Ah Cen's living in Chang'an for so long, if he pretends to be a fake, he will always be exposed, so it's better not to cause trouble.At this time, the second apprentice who has no antidote is already in danger.Qiu Yu didn't dare to procrastinate any longer, even if he exposed himself, he couldn't hurt him, so he wanted to take the child back to Huagu for treatment, but the child didn't survive.At this time, Qiu Yu was also poisoned. I don't know if it was there before, or they poisoned Qiu Xi later in order to silence them.Qiu Xi didn't dare to do what he wanted, he just wanted to spend his last days by A-Cen's side.
But seeing Ah Cen depressed day by day, Qiu Yu became more and more panicked, and Zong Xun, who knew the truth, didn't pretend to her, accusing her of being at fault.In fact, Zong Xun might use this as evidence to force Qiu Yu to leave his master, and Qiu Yun, who felt ashamed in his heart, had no choice but to leave.
Therefore, at that time, the old cat would see Zong Xun and his wife meeting in the middle of the night, and Zong Xun was still holding a sword.
However, when Qiu Xi returned to Huagu, he found that he was pregnant!She had always thought that she would end up in the Valley of Flowers, but she would be revived because of the child, but at that time, the poison entered her spleen, not only did the child fail to keep herself, but also fell to the root of the disease, and her vitality was severely injured and her foundation was completely destroyed.Although Qiu Xi unexpectedly survived due to physical changes during pregnancy, he only lived for a few years due to excessive physical wear and tear.
