Chapter 1927: Sailing (32)

Outside Songhai City, the Mohist stronghold.

Master Ban and others gathered together, naturally because of the book burning order - Master Ban just rushed back this evening, and then the situation in the city happened to be spread.

"Alas..." Master Ben sat in front of the desk and said after a long sigh, "Old man, I have lived my whole life, and I have seen and eaten all kinds of people. I never dreamed that one day I would be able to hear

Such an outrageous thing.”

After learning the whole story of the Book Burning Order, Master Ban's reaction was not anger, but tiredness, unprecedented tiredness.

How could something like this happen?

Why did such a stupid thing happen to an old man like him?

Gao Jianli took over the conversation in a deep voice and said, "In any case, the reality is that Ying Zheng's attitude towards the burning of books is more resolute than we expected. He actually made this matter clear to the world so quickly without caring about the boiling public resentment."

Bandit Zhi folded his arms, bared his teeth and said, "He is really not afraid of people's rebellion...does he have to be so cruel?"

"This is Ying Zheng." Ge Nie answered with a complicated expression.

He was the person present who knew Ying Zheng best...but to him, he felt that he didn't know the First Emperor very well.

He knew very well what Ying Zheng was doing, but he never expected that Ying Zheng could implement something like the book-burning order.

"Then what should we do?" Robber Zhi asked with a shrug.

"Of course I'm trying to find ways to help people collect books." Master Ban's tired voice sounded.

Just because the Mohists became rebels, it does not mean that all Mohists became rebels.

If we want to label all those who study Mohist knowledge as rebels, then not to mention half of the people in the world, at least half of the scholars will become rebels.

Although the empire is very good at what it does, it won't be able to arrest half of the world's scholars in one fell swoop.

The wanted ones are mainly Mo Xia who are active in the Jianghu, that is, those who are mainly based in the headquarters city, and are generally regarded as the "Mojia" in the Jianghu. As for ordinary Mohist scholars, they are not affected.

Of course, they are not completely unaffected, at least they no longer have the possibility to serve as officials in the court.

Such people naturally keep a large number of Mohist classics in their hands.

What Master Ban said was to help them hide their books - everyone has selfish motives, and since they are disciples of Mohism, they naturally give priority to Mohist classics, and will only consider other schools if they have spare time.

But the probability of having enough energy to spare is slim.

Thief Zhi raised his hand and rubbed his temples, sighing, "This is a big project!"

Regardless of the difficulty involved, the manpower required alone is huge.

The number of people in the Mohist family is considered to be one of the best among all the other schools of thought. Even so, it is unknown whether it will be enough.

Gao Jianli suggested at this time, "Maybe we can try to ask the farmers for help."

When it comes to resisting the book-burning order, the farmers are probably the ones with the least pressure - except for special cases like doctors.

There were many of them and few books, so it would be easy to deal with them, so they naturally became the Mohist family's first choice for help.

Master Ban nodded in agreement, "We have cooperated with the farmers not long ago, and I think they should be willing to support us."

"I just don't know if our strength will be enough with the help of farmers..."

At this time, Xue Nu interrupted and reminded, "As a result, almost all the attention of the various schools of thought will be attracted by the book-burning order, and the empire's other actions may be..."

Gao Jianli looked serious, "I'm afraid this is exactly Ying Zheng's purpose."

If the news of the book-burning order is released at this time, all scholars will definitely not be able to care about the mirage.

Not to mention that Ying Zheng sent a ship out to sea to find the Immortal Mountain, even if he flew his own mother into the sky to find the heaven, no one would care about him.

Although there are still anti-Qin forces that don't care about burning books, the pressure on the empire will definitely be greatly reduced.

Of course, Ying Zheng has always looked down on such young people, so this plan was probably just a casual one.

After all, he has made up his mind to carry out the book-burning order. Sooner or later, this matter will come to light, sooner or later.

Thief Zhi touched his chin and asked, "Then we will do as he wishes?"

Gao Jianli replied in a deep voice, "This is an unsolvable conspiracy. We can only choose the lesser of two evils."

"Where is that boy tomorrow? Are they still trying to create mirages?" Thieves Zhi then asked.

Master Ban stroked his beard and replied, "The little girl from Shushan will definitely not stop if she wants to save people... Xiaozhi, go and keep an eye on them. If you can help, try to help. If you can't help, just keep an eye on them."

Don't be stupid."

"Okay!" Thief Zhi nodded and agreed to the errand.

Master Ban immediately looked at the others and said, "Everyone who is left should start preparing to deal with the Book Burning Order."

………………

At the same time, Tian Ming and the other two people rushed to Duan Murong's medical clinic.

The three of them did not go in directly, but rested outside for a while.

It's not that I'm tired from traveling, but that I'm tired.

The road has become familiar to the three of us, and everyone is numb.

This trip was like a silly boy walking around.

Tianming patted his thigh, which was actually not very tired, and complained with a low eyebrow, "This won't work, we have to find a way to solve it."

"I can't think of any way to solve it." Shao Yu simply shook his head, expressing his helplessness.

Shi Lan remained silent, her meaning was very clear - she had no idea.

If you use a vehicle, the target will be too conspicuous. If you want to be inconspicuous, you have to move your legs secretly and block the front and rear ends.

Tianming rolled his eyes and came up with a crooked idea:

"I have an idea."

When Shao Yu saw the mean look on his face, he knew it was not a good thing, "I guess your method is not very effective."

"No, no, no." Tianming grinned, "It's definitely a good idea."

"As long as we build a machine Suzaku and use it, all problems will be solved."

"It's fast, not tiring, and you won't be discovered at all... In one word, perfect!"

Shao Yu patted his head after hearing this, and the whites of his eyes wished they could roll out of their sockets, "I knew it..."

"Do you think this is possible?"

Tianming shrugged, "Why is it impossible?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The Mo family has more than one mechanism, Suzaku, and Xiao Gao and the others have nothing to do now. As a giant, can't I use one for myself?"

"Theoretically, I support you." Shao Yu replied with a smile, "But from a practical point of view, I suggest you to dream. There is everything in dreams."

Of course it was reasonable for the Mohist giant to call the agency Suzaku, but Tianming, the giant, was in name only, and the matters he dealt with were purely private matters. Shao Yu thought with his toes and knew that Gao Jianli would not agree.

Moreover, using the mechanism Suzaku is not without risks. It is also possible to be discovered, and it will also direct clues to the Mo family. It is a type where either nothing happens, and if something happens, there will definitely be big trouble.

"Also, if you bring in a machine Suzaku, Commander Gao and the others will have to assign you a pilot to operate it, just to make the journey faster, do you think it's possible?"

"I can open it myself." Tian Ming rolled his eyes and refuted Shao Yu's last sentence.

Shao Yu sneered, "If you dare to drive, we must also dare to sit!"

"That's what you said." Tian Ming was very unhappy about this, "We have already played with the White Tiger, and even reached the sky, how can we still defeat the Suzaku?"

Shao Yu rolled his eyes and retorted, "First of all, we had to drive the White Tiger several times, especially the time when we drove the White Tiger No. 0."

"Secondly, the white tiger is still on all fours. Even if we don't do it right, we won't die."

"Suzaku is meant to go to heaven. If you lose track of it, will you provide me with wings or can you summon my soul?"

"You don't believe me, do you? Okay!" Tianming was also confident and waved his little arm, "I'll prove it to you later."

Shao Yuhun didn't care about Tianming's big words and replied calmly, "You'd better come to the Suzaku prison first."

Anyway, the first step won’t be completed tomorrow, so there’s no need to think about whether you can drive or not.

Tianming curled his lips, not giving in at all, "Let's wait and see!"

"Okay, let's go in." Shi Lan promptly interrupted the competition between the two friends.

The three of them entered the small courtyard of the medical center and saw Duan Murong packing medicinal materials.

Regarding Yu Ziqi, Duanmu Rong still had no choice but to put it aside for now.

When she saw the three little ones coming over, her eyes turned cold and she didn't say anything, but everyone could see her dissatisfaction.

By dawn, they were used to it, so they hurriedly approached with shy faces.

Shao Yu reached out and took out a cloth bag and said at the same time, "Miss Rong, we got some branches from the hibiscus sacred tree on the mirage to see if it can help Brother Shi Lan's condition."

Tianming then added, "It is said that this thing contains a lot of vitality. Can it be used as medicine?"

Duan Murong did not take the thing from Shao Yu's hand, but looked at the two of them and asked, "How did you know that the branches and leaves of the Fuso tree have this effect?"

Seeing Duan Murong's reaction, Shao Yu Tianming looked at each other and asked in unison, "Did you know earlier?"

Duan Murong reached out and took the cloth bag in Shao Yu's hand, and then replied, "The first Central Plains person to come into contact with Shushan and understand the Fuso tree was the imperial master Gu Xun. It was he who discovered that the branches and leaves of the Fuso tree can be used as medicine."

"Ah..." Shaoyu Tianming groaned in understanding.

As we all know, the national master Gu Xun and the medical master Nianduan are close friends. The two have known each other and studied medicine together for many years.

Since this matter was first discovered by Gu Xun, Duan Murong, who is a student of Nianduan, naturally knows about it.

But this matter is not important. What is important is——

"So can we save people?"

Duan Murong shook his head, hesitated for a moment and then said, "Probably not... I'll give it a try."

In theory, it is definitely useless. Yu Ziqi does not need to replenish his vitality from the outside at all, but considering what Shi Lan said about her brother Yu Yuan's special status as a guard and his inextricable connection with the Fuso sacred tree, she cannot say that it is certain.

Useless.

Have to test it out.

However, she had to control the dosage of the medicine to avoid breaking Yu Ziqi's current relatively stable state.

"Do you need our help?" Shaoyu asked quickly.

It's good to have a glimmer of hope. After all, the process of obtaining these branches was quite easy.

"Don't disturb me, that's the greatest help."

When it came to treating illnesses and saving people, Duanmu Rong immediately returned to the state of not allowing strangers or acquaintances to enter.

Tianming and others wisely said goodbye and left.

But before leaving, Tianming asked, "How long will it take to get the results?"

"At least two days."

This answer made the three of them very confused, and they started discussing it immediately after leaving the hospital.

"Two days... is a bit long." Tianming touched his chin, feeling a little troubled.

After all, Duan Murong only said that it was possible, but it seemed that he was not very sure, and the time consumed was a bit too much for them.

The key is that in this case, they can't touch Yu Ziqi, and there is no other way to start.

Shaoyu also felt that there was some trouble, but he did not say what he thought. Instead, he looked at Shi Lan first and said, "What do you think?"

"In two days...if something happens at the mirage, we will be very passive." Shi Lan was also worried about this problem.

Tian Ming was outspoken and suggested, "Why don't you take the risk and just take people on board?"

Shi Lan did not express his position immediately.

It would be safer to wait for Duan Murong, but it may be a waste of time, and there may be trouble later.

If Yu Ziqi was brought directly onto the ship, the chance of completely curing the person would be greater, but this behavior itself is highly dangerous.

Both have their own trade-offs and pros and cons, so it's hard to say which one is better than the other.

The three of them looked at each other in silence, and then a voice broke the silence.

"Hey, what are you three doing?"

The three of them followed the sound and saw Thief Zhi looking at them with a playful smile.

Robber Zhi walked towards the three of them, complaining as he walked, "You three are quite capable of tossing around, making it easy for me to find you."

Tianming responded, "Why are you here?"

"Let's see how your rescue operation is going." Daozhi spread his hands and replied, "Do you have a clue?"

Tian Ming and the other three looked at each other and reached a tacit consensus - to tell the truth to Taizhi.

Maybe you need the help of this Qinggong master, so it's not appropriate to deceive him.

"We have a clue, but we are stuck in a dilemma..." Tianming briefly explained the current situation to Daozhi.

"Well..." Thief Zhi thought for a moment after hearing this, then looked at Shi Lan, "What do you think?"

After a moment of silence, Shi Lan made her own decision, "If possible, I think it would be better to be more radical."

"Don't miss the opportunity; it will never come back."

Duan Murong's attempt can be carried out at any time, but if the mirage opens, it will be difficult for them to catch up even if they are flying.

When Thief Zhi heard this, he clapped his hands and said, "In that case, we have to do it as soon as possible."

"What do you mean?" Tianming asked confused.

Robber Zhi's urging was obviously not the same as their anxiety.

"Something big has happened in Songhai. The Mo family's manpower will soon be dispersed. If you don't do this quickly, you will really have to do it yourself."

"A big thing? What big thing?" Shao Yu quickly asked, "Something happened to the mirage?"

"Phantoms are nothing!" Pirate Zhi looked unhappy when he mentioned the Book Burning Order. "It is a major event that affects the whole world. Songhai is just a flashpoint."

"Let's talk about the details on the way. Come back to the base with me first and let's figure out what to do."

Tianming and the other two people didn't know what was going on, so they could only follow the bandit in confusion.

………………

It was late at night.

Xianyang, on the bank of the Wei River.

Late at night, even Xianyang, the imperial capital, was pitch black, with few lights visible.

However, the nobles and wealthy businessmen living in Xianyang City must still have their own nightlife. There are always some places that are brightly lit at night.

The bank of Jingwei is exactly such a place.

In the Purple Orchid Pavilion painting boat on the river, Gu Xun woke up from his sleep, shook his head and glanced at the window.

"Midnight?"
