Chapter 459: Reverse Social Death

Late at night, the night in the North was piercingly cold in its desolation.

Xu New Year, who was lying on his side and dozing by the campfire, woke up periodically, pressed his hands on the shoulders of two of his soldiers, and recited in a low voice, “Feverish blood!”

The two soldiers groaned in comfort, no longer curled up for warmth as they had been before, and sleep revealed a slight contentment.

The Demon Barbarians and the Dafeng coalition were scattered by the heavy cavalry of the Jing Kingdom, and they didn’t have time to carry a lot of things with them, such as rations and household items.

Without tents and bedding, sleeping rough in the north in the beginning of fall was a grueling affair. Soldiers could even suffer from wind chills and die of disease.

In the absence of supplies, contracting a disease is tantamount to death.

Therefore, Xu Erlang would periodically awaken in the dead of night to apply spells that would drive away the cold and warm the soldiers’ bodies.

He was already a seventh grade Ren, a Confucian in this realm besides having a stronger physique than normal people, then he had mastered the rudiments of words.

Words are power!

Erlang Xu can apply any status, or weakness, or courage, or mitigation of wounds to the target to a certain extent ……….

By a certain degree, I mean to keep it reasonable.

For example, Xu Erlang’s current level can only allow soldiers to stimulate the potential to drive away the cold. If Zhao Shouxian was here, he would sing a song: “The beauty of the desert, March day”.

The surrounding climate then changes from fall to spring and stays that way for quite some time.

After applying the cold repelling spells to the soldiers one by one, Xu Erlang, whose expression could not hide his exhaustion, fished out a piece of jerky from his arms and tore into it with great force.

At this time, he realized that Chu Yuanjian was not sleeping, this scholar boy was sitting with his back against the carriage, his palms sinking into the ground and gouging out deep pits.

The face is also not right, hiss, a big man has such a complicated expression ………. Xu Erlang climbed up, walked over, and sat down next to Chu Yuanzhen, saying:

“What’s the matter, you’ve looked out of sorts since the transmission just now.”

“I just think that trust between people is suddenly gone ………”

Chu Yuanjian had a self-conscious expression on his face as he looked at Xu Ruixu, and after wanting to speak for a while, he whispered:

“Er Lang ah, I’ve said and done many strange things to you in the past, I hope you don’t mind. When I think back on those now, I get goosebumps all over my body and just feel like a lifetime of fame has been ruined.”

Xu Erlang thought for a moment and said, “You mean standing on the street and smiling at me inexplicably?”

Chu Yuanjian was struck by lightning, “Don’t, don’t say ……..”

The truth is obvious, Number 3 is Xu Qi’an, who has been impersonating his cousin Xu Xinnian. Number 3 says that he doesn’t want his identity to be exposed, so it’s best not to mention the land book when they meet.

The Third said, “I am about to leave with the army, and the fragment of the earth book will be temporarily given to my elder brother for safekeeping.

All of this is a staged deception to cover up the fact that Xu Ningyan is number three.

But, but Jiro Xu cooperated too well.

Chu Yuanjian asked unwillingly, “You said that you didn’t know about the Earth Book Fragment, but you always felt that you were particularly, well, tolerant of me. No matter what strange words I say or what strange things I do, you have no reaction.”

A lot of the conversations that felt heartfelt to him at the time were, in hindsight, complete monologues, because Jiro didn’t know about the earth book and didn’t have that tacit understanding.

Xu New Year frankly said, “Big brother explained that no matter what strange words you say or what strange things you do, I should not be strange, or give you a smile, or nod my head, or ignore it.”

Chu Yuanjian’s palms gouged deeply into the ground once again.

But soon, the nimble Chu Yuanjian thought that Xu Ningyan had been pretending to be his cousin, and in order to fit his persona, he had often bragged about his “big brother” in the earth book fragments, and said a lot of things that would make one’s scalp go numb just thinking about it.

If Xu Ningyan knew that I knew his identity, the one who would be embarrassed would be him!

Never let him go!

Chu Yuanzhan immediately revealed a smile, which was very thought-provoking.

…………

Xu Mansion in the capital.

Xu Qi’an felt his head being tapped and instantly woke up, and because he had had several similar experiences, he did not suspect the Taiping Blade and Zhong Li knocking him on the head.

Really, the private chat in the middle of the night, that son of a bitch, it will not be no night life Huaiqing again ………. He skillfully drew the pieces of the ground book from under the pillow, then got up, walked to the table, and lit the candle.

In the fire-colored glow, he sat down and checked the transmission.

[4: Xu Qi’an, you’re number three, right? You’ve been lying to us all along.]

Xu Qi’an’s entire body froze.

When did Chu Yuanjian know who I was?

When was I exposed?

He finally saw through me through the breach revealed by Erlang Xu?

At this moment, the shame was like a tidal wave, no, a tsunami, swallowing him whole.

After Chu Yuanjian passed on the letter, he did not speak again, while Xu Qi’an was plunged into a great sense of shame, losing the “courage” to reply for a while.

Only after a long time did Xu Baihui gather his emotions and transmitted a reply, [Not bad, you are the first one within the Tiandi Association, other than Daoist Master Jinlian, to see through my identity].

Regardless of the shame and embarrassment of the real world, on the “internet” I am still wise and hard hitting.

The point is that only such a cloudy gesture can defuse embarrassment.

[IV: Heh, not a bad concealment, I actually had my suspicions for a long time, I’m just not completely sure until recently.]

[3: Not bad for a scholar.]

These two people, one can not wait to imperial sword back to the capital, a sword cut surname Xu. One wanted to cover his face in shame, feeling that there was no point in living.

But all of them deliberately put on a bashful demeanor.

[III: Recently discovered?]

[IV: Heh, two hours ago, after I asked about your second uncle’s comrades, Jiro confessed to me.]

What’s wrong with Erlang, not reliable at all, huh? What my second uncle comrade in arms thing ……… Xu Qi An frowned and transmitted a letter: [My second uncle comrade in arms?

Xu Ning Yan this guy, the original is not really do not care about it, pretending ……… Chu Yuan meticulously then Zhou Biao and Zhao Panyi re said once again.

Clunk!

The sound of a stool tipping over woke Zhong Li, who rubbed her eyes and looked up.

See Xu Qi’an madly pounced on the desk, grinding, lifting the pen and writing hard ………..

About a quarter of an hour later, she saw Xu Qi’an blow-dry the ink, fold the paper, solemnly clip it into a book, exhale, and murmur:

“So that’s how the principle of shielding the sky is.”

“What’s the principle like?” Zhong Li perked up her ears and pursued the question in a small voice.

“Don’t ask, asking is a secret.” Xu Qi’an gave her a blank look, “You’re a professional student, you have the nerve to ask me, a layman?”

Jong Li lowered her head in shame and curled up in the blanket to get what little warmth was left in the world.

Xu Qi’an exhaled a breath, calming his emotions, and transmitted the message, [Brother Chu, can this matter be kept secret for me?

Chu Yuanjian transmitted a letter in reply: [Your identity is not a secret, there is no need to hide it.]

Xu Qi’an seemed to see the expression of Chu Yuanjian with a teasing and cold smile on his face in the distant north.

[III: Well then, if it is to be published, I wish to come to confession myself. What I have done is indeed improper, and I have caused Brother Chu to keep on treating Resignation as Number Three, and to be convinced of it, and to say and do many wrong things.]

[IV: I actually don’t care if your identity is exposed or not.]

Damn Xu Qi’an, wait for me to return to the capital, a sword chopped your golden body ………

After a pause, Chu Yuanjian sent another message, saying, [Erlang Xu knows about the earth book, and he also knows that Hengyuan and I were deceived by you in the first place, and that it caused him great distress.]

…….. Xu Qi’an passes the book to try: [So?

I feel ashamed, can’t hold my head up anymore, need a handle to balance the relationship between me and Jiro ………. Chu Yuanzheng passes on the book: [I feel a little guilty.

[3: I see, have a chat with Jiro about poetry sometime, his famous work is: Heaven does not give birth to me to fulfill the New Year, Da Bong Wan Gui is like a long night]

[IV: Uh-huh.]

Having pacified the Scholar, Xu Qi’an returned to his bed, stuffed the pieces of the ground book into his pillow, and then, wriggling around like a maggot.

Venting the flipping shame.

I’ve never been so embarrassed in my life ……… It’s so humiliating, my Xu Qi’an image and face are all gone ……… Now everyone knows about me except Hengyuan ………. Hehe, wait, everyone knows, but everyone doesn’t say anything, isn’t that the equivalent of me not being socially dead?

Even though everyone knew about it, everyone was keeping it a secret for him, even covering it up, trying to convince the others that Xu Rui Lao was the Third.

In that case, I’m as good as dead.

On the other hand, even if there is a showdown in the future, because it has long been known, there is no target for me to die a social death. On the contrary, they are the ones who are trying their best to cover up for me and mislead others, and they are the ones who are really dying socially.

Xu Qi’an’s eyes lit up.

At ease, well, go to bed early, tomorrow is the date to explore the Dragon Vein with my sister-in-law.

The next day.

After washing up, Xu Qi’an finished his breakfast and sat in the house to wait, not long after, the golden light penetrated the ridge of the house without destroying it, and in the brilliant light, Luo Yuheng’s tall and exquisite figure emerged.

She wore the same Taoist robes she had seen last time, cinching her waist and emphasizing the size of her breasts.

It certainly enhances her femininity, her presence as a woman, and reduces the aura of the awe-inspiring fairy.

“Master of the State!”

Xu Qi’an greeted with a warm smile.

Luo Yu Heng nodded slightly, gave a clear and cold “hmm” and said, “I’ll take you there.”

Despite possessing ample confidence in Luo Yu Heng, but being conservative, he cautiously asked, “Will the other party find out?”

“No way!”

Luo Yu Heng spoke in a calm tone, her delicate carving-like face missing its expression as she said, “I’ll conceal my breath.”

In addition to wufu, all major systems are fancy and envious ………. Xu Qi’an revealed a smile, “It’s not too late, act as early as possible.”

Luo Yu Heng nodded his head and with a wave of his sleeve, golden light curled around Xu Qi An, taking him to disappear into the room.

As soon as her eyes opened and closed, Xu Qi’an saw the wigwam group in the back garden of the Pingyuan Burial Mansion, and Luo Yuheng’s textured female voice came from her ears, “Is this the place?”

He answered and walked over to one of the wigwams and pressed the mechanism with familiarity.

The surface of the wigwam opens up into a “door”, revealing a dark hole.

“State Master, this is the hole in the ground.” Xu Qi’an said.

Luo Yu Heng nodded haughtily and followed him into the cave.

Soon, the two arrived at the stone room and saw the large stone disk, carved with twisted, odd incantations.

Luo Yu Heng stood by the stone disk, gazing intently, and said, “The attainment of the Earth Escape Technique is extremely high, and it does indeed look like the handiwork of Senior Golden Lotus.”

“Senior Golden Lotus?”

Xu Qi’an expressed his doubts.

According to the feedback from the late emperor s starting record, the golden lotus dao chief and the last dao chief of the human clan were of the same generation. When he was in the Sword State, lsp Black Lotus’s doppelganger had mouthed off, calling out to Luo Yu Heng’s good niece and wanting to double cultivate with her.

The tall and beautiful State Master, casually explained, “The three Sect Dao Heads are equal.”

In terms of status, the three Daoist heads of the three clans were equal, so Daoist Golden Lotus was her senior brother. But in terms of age, Golden Lotus and her father were of the same generation, so it could also be Senior Uncle?

Xu Qi’an thought indistinctly, and without stopping his hands, he pulled out the pieces of the Earth Book and placed them on the stone disk.

…………

Huaiqing Mansion, Study Room.

Hair bun high, hanging down the silk, appearing a little lazy Huaiqing, sitting in the study on a soft chair, in front of a purple rhinoceros dragon sandalwood case handed down from the period of the Great Zhou.

A piece of paper was spread out on the case, the ink-stained purple hair quietly rested on the white jade pen rest, she lowered her eyes, staring at the paper in a daze.

After a quarter of an hour of silence, Huaiqing finally put pen to paper and wrote down “26 Years of Jeanne d’Arc”, “Pollution”, “The Head of the Earth Sect Dao has become a demon”, “The Massacre of Chuzhou”, “Soul Pill” and so on. “, “Soul Elixir” and so on.

Assuming that the head of the Earth Sect Dao was the culprit of everything, Xu Qi’an’s speculation was reasonable and tenable.

Many of the clues found so far can be corresponded to one by one, although again there are some implausibilities, but this is because they have not yet been thoroughly investigated.

So there will be details that don’t add up, such as the purpose of Jizondo’s first contamination of Father and King Huai.

“Father wants to kill Hengyuan because Hengyuan saw the secret passage in the Pingyuan Burial Mansion. In other words, Father Emperor is aware of the existence of the Earth Sect Dao Head. From the Chuzhou Massacre until now, Father Emperor has been doing the Earth Sect Dao Head’s bidding for what?”

This was what Waiqing found most unreasonable, from her point of view, any alliance was shaky if there was no benefit.

“Unless Father is completely controlled by the head of the Earth Sect Dao …….. The entanglement of interests in the imperial court, the doors and paths, the Golden Lotus Taoist Head eats through?”

“The incident that exposed the collusion between Father, King Huai, and the Earth Sect’s Dao Head was the Chuzhou Massacre, which means that the Chuzhou Massacre is important to them, and the essence of this case is the Blood Pill and the Soul Pill.”

“Soul elixir is important ……….”

Time passed quietly, and after an unknown amount of time, Huaiqing’s crystalline and lovely ears twitched slightly, catching the sound of footsteps in the distance, coming towards the study.

She busily crumpled the paper into a ball, squeezing it in her hands and gathering it in her sleeve.

Waiting quietly for more than ten seconds, footsteps stopped at the door, and a palace maid spoke in a thin voice: “Your Highness, Miss Caiwei is here.”

Huaiqing replied coldly, “Let her in.”

After the palace maid retired, Chu Caiwei came in with a cheerful stride, holding an orange in each of her two small hands, and delicately said, “Huaiqing ah, I want to eat osmanthus fish.”

The osmanthus fish is the masterpiece of the chef in Huaiqing Mansion, unique and not available outside.

Huaiqing smiled, “Good, I’ll have someone inform the kitchen.”

Chu Caiwei happily fished out the large bag of pastries from her buckskin belt pouch and shared the food with Huaiqing.

They ate pastries and drank tea, casually chatting for a few moments, when Huaiqing asked in his usual tone, “Caiwei, do you know about Soul Dan?”

“Huh, why are they all asking about this Soul Pill thing lately?”

Chu Caiwei looked at her girlfriend in surprise: “A while ago Xu Qi’an also came to the Stargazer building to check the soul dan, but also asked me, how could I know well, just take him to the Tibetan cabinet.”

“What is the use of Soul Pills?” Huaiqing vainly asked for advice.

Chu Caiwei immediately revealed a “count yourself lucky” face and grunted, “I originally didn’t know, but last time I followed Xu Qi’an and read the book, I knew.”

After a pause, she said, “Soul pills are good things with a wide range of uses, enhancing the Yuan Shen, acting as alchemy materials, refining magic treasures, repairing dysfunctional souls, and cultivating artifact spirits.”

Mending the dysfunctional soul ………. Huaiqing’s breath caught suddenly, and he knocked over the tea cup by mistake.
