Shen Sheng agreed and turned around to leave. ﹏＞＿Yawen﹎Bar =

Li Xianyuan and her maid Xiaohong came to a small courtyard. There was a guest room in the courtyard.

Squeak——

The door opened, Xiaohong stood outside the door with her hands tied, pointing to the two-story building outside the east courtyard wall and said: "Mr. Li, that is the Li family ancestral hall. The old lady didn't think you were an outsider during her lifetime, you can wander around the Li family as you like. , including the ancestral hall. If you need anything, just call my servant."

After saying goodbye, he turned around and left the courtyard.

After watching her leave, Li Xianyuan looked inside the room. The guest room was dry and clean. Li Xianyuan buried himself under the threshold, looked around and then closed the door.

Take off your shoes and get on the bed, close your eyes and go into the bright hall.

Everything in the Mingtang is as before. The five poems on the front mud wall each show a vision. The two early vision poems each have a milky white halo. The butterfly in "Butterfly Love Flower·Spring Scene" is a shadow, and the "Swordsman" is a small glazed sword with a faint shadow. The "Xia Ke Xing" in the center shows an illusory back figure with a long sword on his back.

Five stars twinkled in the starry sky above the hut. Perhaps the ravine had not been restored, and the wall was still a simple mud wall mixed with straw and yellow mud. The partial ravine showed no sign of recovery, and lay there like a huge ugly scar.

He touched the mud wall lightly with his palm and rubbed the cracks carefully. The small pieces of mud fell off and returned to their original positions.

The dry, cold and stiff dialogue of black and white and impermanence echoed in my mind.

"Time is running out. Yawen﹎8﹏w·w·w`.-y=a·w-e=n·8`.-c-o·m"

Hallucination? Or reality? Li Xianyuan couldn't tell, but either way it was not a good thing.

"Ahem——"

The itching in his throat forced Li Xianyuan out of consciousness. He lay on the bed and coughed violently, hoarse and almost coughing out his lungs.

The location here is so quiet that even if the cough penetrates the guest room and echoes in the courtyard, no one can hear it.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Li Xianyuan grabbed his throat and retched, and after a while of coughing, the itching subsided.

His head was spread messily on the back of his head. He lay exhausted on the bed, panting heavily, with red eyes and tears accumulated in his cough. Li Xianyuan had rarely been in such a miserable state.

After a long while to regain his strength, Li Xianyuan climbed out of bed and stumbled to the bronze mirror.

In the bronze mirror, the bloodshot eyes were not dispersed, and the threads were messy in front of the forehead.

Li Xianyuan stretched out his hand and pushed it up, revealing his fair forehead. He closed his eyes for a few breaths and opened them, and saw an ink mark slowly appearing on his forehead.

There are five petals of the plum blossom, and there are four plum blossom ink marks on the center of the eyebrow, with only one corner missing. In the middle is a round ink mark, like the heart of a flower. It corresponds to the five poems in the Mingtang.

The plum blossom mark between the eyebrows, coupled with the calm black eyes, further enhances Li Xianyuan's aloof temperament.

He moved his hand away, and it fell down messily, with the plum blossom looming in front of his forehead.＿﹏Ya＞Article w·Li Xianyuan had no time to hide it anymore, so he opened the door and stood in the courtyard.

The gentle breeze blew away some of the haze in my heart. But the words black and white and impermanence were still rooted in my heart. Especially when I vomited blood and coughed earlier, they simply reflected those words.

"Time is running out..." Li Xianyuan murmured softly, looking at the ancestral hall outside the courtyard wall, looking away, leaving the courtyard and leaving the Li Mansion, and went straight to the county government office.

After lighting half a stick of incense, Li Xianyuan came to the gate of the county government office.

"Sir Li." The official in front of the county government gate recognized Li Xianyuan and respectfully called him "Master Li" before letting him in. Li Xianyuan walked directly from the side corridor to the back garden of the county government office. From a distance, he could see the magistrate and county magistrate sitting in the pavilion with heavy faces.

They already knew about old lady Li driving Hexi to the west.

Li Xianyuan stepped forward and explained the matter of vomiting blood. They had known about it for a long time, and thought it was due to the sudden death of the old lady Li. When they heard that Li Xianyuan said otherwise, they hurriedly called the doctor to treat Li Xianyuan.

The doctor was a skinny old man who was assigned to the county government in Xinjing and specialized in treating various diseases of officials. He had excellent medical skills. At first, he refused to treat Li Xianyuan, saying that he was a young man who naturally had no official position and was not related to the local officials.

, why should I treat you?

The two county magistrates and county magistrates still didn't believe him when they said he was a Marquis of Guannei, and the magistrate Fang was so angry that he wanted to take action. It was Li Xianyuan who took out the jade pendant he had been given and was convinced. He knelt down and thanked him for a long time. After Li Xianyuan said he would not pursue the case, he became frightened.

Get up and take his pulse.

"Master Li... your pulse is normal and the tongue coating has not changed. I agree with the doctor that it is caused by heart fire attacking the heart. Just drink some tea and Chinese medicine that can dispel fire and clear away heat.

Li Xianyuan shook his head, he didn't believe it was so simple.

"This..." The old man looked helplessly at the magistrate.

"You can do whatever Mr. Li says," the magistrate said solemnly.

"But there is really nothing I can do." The skinny doctor said with a confused look on his face: "Master Li's illness is the same even if he is examined by the imperial doctor from the imperial hospital. His pulse and tongue coating are all normal, unless he can find a monk or immortal to see him."

The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.

After hearing the sentence "Unless we can find monks and gods to see a doctor." Li Xianyuan thought for a moment.

To untie the bell, the person who tied it needs to be tied. If you want to know the truth, you can only...

He didn't stay at the county government office for too long. After half a day of incense sticks, he went out, borrowed a carriage from the county magistrate, and went to Shen Sheng's home with brothers Song Shan and Song Shi.

Father Shen was the only one in the Shen family. When he saw Li Xianyuan, his expression turned cold.

"It seems that kid ran away to the brothel again.

"

Li Xianyuan thought about it and finally figured it out. Shen's father thought Shen Sheng was accompanying him. But when he let Shen Sheng go, he didn't go home, but went straight to the Shangfang Courtyard to find the girl.

Li Xianyuan promised Father Shen to drag the bastard back, and then ran to the Fragrance Garden.

It was already evening when Li Xianyuan arrived. The lanterns were hung high in the Fangfang Courtyard. The hall was busier than usual, and the seats were packed. Li Xianyuan choked on the rouge and gouache and coughed repeatedly, covering his mouth and nose. After asking the bustard, he found out that the reason for the excitement was because of that card.

Li Xianyuan suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten the matter.

After questioning, he learned that the poetry competition would be held three days later. Li Xianyuan found Shen Sheng and dragged him out in disheveled clothes.

Shen Sheng lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything. It's just that Li Xianyuan didn't come to him to teach him a lesson.

"Shen Sheng, help me." He asked brothers Song Shan and Song Shi to wait in front of the carriage. Li Xianyuan pulled Shen Sheng, who was hurriedly fastening his belt, to the stone bridge.

Not far away, a huge flower boat sings and dances, reflected in the sparkling lake water. There are cruise ships on the lake.

A cruise ship passed through the bridge hole, and occasionally I heard the lady on the boat laughing. Pedestrians were coming and going on the bridge, which was very lively.

"Brother Li, what's the matter?" General Shen Sheng dressed up and asked quickly.

"Help me search for people who are about to die in Wuhou County. It's best if they die in the near future."

"What?" Shen Sheng was stunned, suspecting that he heard wrongly.

"If there is a seriously ill patient in Wuhou County who is not recovering, an injured person who is lingering, or a prisoner who is about to die, who will die within a few days, please bring his identity and address to me. Do you understand?"

Shen Sheng nodded as if he understood, and said a little puzzled: "Brother Li, what are you looking for... why are you looking for this?"

Li Xianyuan did not answer immediately. He stared at Shen Sheng until he stared at Shen Sheng's hair before speaking.
