Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 7: Countercurrent
As for the reason why Er Lengzi didn't go to the Da Sima Mansion, it was because the bald head suddenly came over to fight, and swept away Yaxing, who was beating him without asking. And guarding a senior Yan Jie, who knows if the old guy will eat too much wine, will he let him kneel on the ground and kowtow to Yan Jie and call him grandpa? Among the monsters with no ethical concept, Bai Wuqiu can be regarded as a relatively alternative monster.
I originally planned to go to Wang Mang's Da Sima Mansion to see if it was returned or not, and by the way to inquire about the whereabouts of the alchemist family over the years. It seems that this man who is under one person and above ten thousand people does not care about the taboos of alchemists. Since he dared to take Yan Jie, who was of the same generation as Xu Fu, by his side, he would more or less always know some rumors about the alchemist Guangren and the volcano.
However, seeing that his cheap son didn't give Wang Mang this face when he said anything, and although Wu Mian didn't speak, he didn't seem to have any interest in the Da Sima Mansion, and his mind began to waver. The seal on his body has not been lifted for a day, and he cannot offend this white-haired man for a day.
Although there was no way to unlock the seal on Baidao, the old guy never gave up because of his understanding of Xu Fu. The old guy who was still fishing at sea was also the former Dafang Master, and he was a unique character. Since it was said that Wu Mian helped him lift the seal, then there was his reason. Maybe one day this white-haired man will remember something when he is happy, and it may not be that he can lift the seal that has plagued him for three hundred years.
But after all, Wang Mang is still a very popular figure in the dynasty. In the end, it was Guangzhi who could see the intention of returning home, and he replaced Wu Mian and Gui Bugui, who followed Wang Mang back to the mansion.
Although Wang Mang was disappointed, he did not force it. After a few words of courtesy, he gave up his horse and asked Guangzhi to ride it. The big Sima left Yan Jie to reminisce with Wu Mian and Gui Bu. After he rode on Yan Jie's horse, he respectfully led his entourage to accompany Guangzhi towards the capital.
After the last experience of escaping, Yan Jie didn't want to have anything to do with Wu Mian and Gui Bugui. However, Wang Mang did not dare to offend him. After seeing that the big Sima had gone far, Yan Jie gave a wry smile and said to Gui Bugui: "I heard that you have already crossed the sea to find Xu Fu, but I didn't expect it to be there. I'll meet you here again. It looks like I've found Xu Fu?"
"Even we know when we cross the sea, when did you care about us so much, uncle teacher?" Gui Bugui smiled, and continued to Yan Jie, who was neither embarrassed nor embarrassed, "Last time you served King Huainan, this The next time I served as a **** for the Great Sima, will I go to the palace to be the emperor’s servant next time? Teacher, even if this body is not your own, you can’t waste it like this, right?”
The tone of Gui Bugui's speech was very much like Wu Mian's signature tone, which made the white-haired man roll his eyelids and glance at him. After the old guy laughed, he changed his tone and continued to speak to Yan Jie, whose face was hot, "Teacher said that you hooked up with this big Sima like this, and we will follow along. "
Hearing that Gui Gui was finally given the stairs, Yan Jie hurriedly said: "Don't underestimate this big Sima, I once gave him a divination, this person is destined to have a royal spirit, and sooner or later he will do it. The master of the world. But if you go further down the divination, you will be peeping at the fortune of the country. Although I am no longer an alchemist, I don’t dare to spy on the fortune of the country rashly. Assisting him is only to comply with the fate of God and the country, why should I not do it?"
Bai Wuqiu was originally a good person, after hearing that Wang Mang had emperor luck. Before he could return to speak, he couldn't help but said, "Bald, you said that the half-old man was going to be the new emperor? How can I not see it. Da Sima and Duke An Han are also considered to be high officials. Right? Why are you still wearing coarse clothes? The other hairpins on your head are also made of wood, right? Look at the former general just now and say that he is a bit of a jerk, and the silk and satin he wears are not cold at all.”
Yan Jie smiled at Er Lengzi before continuing: "Although Da Sima is a relative, he is also a rare sage in ancient and modern times. Do you know why he only wears common clothes and not Lingluo? See why he doesn't have a carriage. Is it? His Majesty Pingdi once gave Da Sima three carriages, all of which were sold by him to help the poor. Apart from the distribution of his salaries to our disciples, he also gave to the people of the capital. You can find out about it in the capital later. , he is not a bad person."
"Even the salary is divided, so I can't think about it..." After hearing Yan Jie's words, Wu Mian, who had been speechless, finally said: "Whether he is famous or a real sage, it has nothing to do with us. Or Tell me about your old sect? After so many years, has there been no news from Guangren and the others?"
Listening to Wu Mian's mention of alchemists, Yan Jie shook his head full and said, "In recent years, I have used the relationship of Da Sima to check the news of Guangren and others. But they are like It was as if they had disappeared completely. At the beginning, I suspected that they had gone to sea to ask Xu Fu to return home. But after a while, I did not find any news about Guangren, but I found out about the fact that you guys went to sea..."
When talking about this, Yan Jie suddenly thought of something. After a pause, the monk of the same generation as Xu Fu continued: "But it's strange to say that it has been nearly a hundred years. Every time there is a period of calm, there are always some people who pretend to be alchemists and come out to make trouble. They are not participating in the rebellion. It is to directly rob houses and rob civilians. There are always people who don't want to let the alchemists settle down. I have encountered people claiming to be alchemists blocking the road and robbing. It's strange that such a small thief is also using alchemy. Yes, even a person like me can't see that the technique is fake. It's a pity that I started a little harder and didn't leave a living hole."
"Since it's not fake, it's real." When Gui Bugui spoke, his eyes narrowed. After taking a look at Wu Mian, he continued with a smile: "But since our grand master doesn't see it, we don't have to follow along. I originally wanted to go to the capital to inquire, but now I don't need it anymore. But There is one more thing, Zuo Ci, there are no outsiders, you can talk to Master Yan Jie yourself..."
As soon as Guibugui's voice fell, Zuo Ci suddenly appeared in front of Yan Jie out of thin air. After returning to the Han realm, Zuo Ci was always uncomfortable. Along the way, he relied on his magic tricks to hide his figure on the carriage. Now that he heard Gui Bugui calling him, he suddenly appeared and startled Yan Jie.
After the ceremony, Zuo Ci told Yan Jie what happened to him in Persia. Yan Jie also frowned when someone was wearing alchemist costumes to arrest people in Persia. It was the first time he had heard of such a thing, although news of the capture of alchemists by the official army had often come out over the years. However, this big Sima celebrity knew that what he had caught were only thieves who robbed houses under the name of alchemists, and he didn't even encounter a counterfeit who could use alchemy.
Now suddenly hearing such a situation, Yan Jie was caught off guard. At the moment, he can only promise that Zuo Ci will ask Da Sima to investigate in detail later, who has been preventing the alchemist from making a comeback for so many years.
It's okay to stay outside the capital after all that has been said. At the moment, Yan Jie invited Wu Mian and Gui Bugui to his private house in the capital. Bai Wuqiu was originally 120 people who did not go, but later I heard that this bald head was the same as returning home, and he was kicked out of the door wall of the alchemist door. The two had no elder relationship, and they would not recognize this grandfather, so now they reluctantly followed the old guy into the capital.
After placing Wu Mian and Gui Bugui in his private residence, Yan Jie immediately went to the Da Sima Mansion. He wanted to meet Wang Mang and inquire about what Zuo Ci said, but after he entered the mansion, he realized that Da Sima and Guangzhi had a good talk. However, the Queen Mother's decree came from the palace just now, urgently summoning the Grand Sima to enter the palace. Looking at this situation, Wang Mang would not come back easily for a while.
At the same time, in the Queen Mother's bedroom in the inner courtyard of the palace, a middle-aged woman said to a man dressed in alchemist clothes: "Did you see clearly? Really Wang Mang invited the alchemist to his own residence. up?"
