Old friends drift away one after another, like leaves falling in the wind.
Looking at Liu Shen's back.
Zhang Heng felt a little melancholy.
Now that Liu Shen is gone, I don’t know when I will see him again.
Maybe the separation is permanent.
certainly.
Zhang Heng is also used to this...
It is said that the three in Taoyuan are sworn brothers, but no one has ever known each other till the end of time.
Along the way, Zhang Heng has long been used to separation.
Because they are a group of people who follow the road, it is far from time to stop and appreciate the prosperity.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, another half year has passed.
Hua Rou is very worry-free. She is a good child who does not need parents to worry too much.
Zhang Heng also thinks about it sometimes.
If he accepts a disciple in the future, he might find one according to Hua Rou's standards.
After all, he is a person who hates trouble.
"granduncle..."
It's half a month again.
Hua Rou suddenly came to see Zhang Heng, accompanied by a girl in black outfit with her thighs exposed.
Seeing this girl, Zhang Heng was stunned for a while: "Han Li?"
"Han Li pays homage to her uncle."
I haven’t seen you for a few years.
Han Li has also become a big girl.
The upper body is wearing a black outfit and the arms are exposed.
Wearing a black short skirt and a pair of small leather boots, she has transformed from the cold and arrogant lolita into a royal lady in her twenties.
"Uncle, Han Li is very powerful now. Not only is she a disciple of Qingyun Sect, she is also one of the top ten fairies on the Phoenix List."
Hua Rou hugged Han Li's arm.
She looked as if she was the one chosen as the fairy.
"It's not that great."
Han Li blushed: "The person who selects the list is Old Man Guigu. My ancestor is a close friend of Old Man Guigu, otherwise Fengbang wouldn't be famous for me."
Zhang Heng was confused.
Can he say that he doesn't know what Feng Bang is?
"Uncle, you don't know about Feng Bang, do you?"
Hua Rou looked like she had seen a devil: "The Phoenix List and the Dragon List, known as the Dragon and Phoenix Talent List, were launched this year by the old man Guigu to comment on the younger generation of geniuses.
Among them, Prince Ying Zheng of Qin, Zhao Yi of Zhao, Wang Jian of Wang family, Prince Dan and Bai Hao of Yan, and Xiang Yan of Chu are all popular candidates on the dragon list."
I really haven't heard of it.
Zhang Heng shook his head: "My uncle is old and has little information. Unlike you young people, you can't keep up with the times."
On weekdays, Zhang Heng doesn't pay much attention to the outside world.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a dragon list or a phoenix list.
These are all things young people play.
Zhang Heng is not a young man, so what's the point of paying attention to this thing? He can't just be surprised and have to act shocked.
"Uncle, this is a high-quality treasure that I obtained in a secret realm, the longevity fruit."
"Take one pill and your life will be extended by one hundred and eighty years. I'm still young and don't have access to this kind of life-extending medicine, so I'm just taking it to honor you, the old man."
Han Li sent a jade box.
Zhang Heng opened it and saw a baby-shaped fruit inside.
Seeing Zhang Heng, Yanshou Guo burst into tears, her cries harsh.
Zhang Heng quickly sealed the jade box and said with approval: "You are serious. My Henggu Zhai has been open for many years. Immortal weapons and magic are common, but this is the first time I have seen this precious medicine that can extend life."
A true immortal has a long life.
In every era, there are true immortal monks who have reached the end of their lifespan and are desperately looking for life-extending medicine.
Over time, life-extending elixirs from the realm of true samadhi can be found but not sought.
There is great terror between life and death.
Just this life-extending fruit can serve a true fairyland monk for a hundred years.
"My uncle won't take advantage of you either."
Zhang Heng thought for a moment: "Whatever you need, whether it's magic or magic, I can satisfy you."
Han Li said with some trepidation: "Uncle, although I have had some adventures and my cultivation has not fallen behind, I know my family affairs and my qualifications are average. There have been many obstacles in my practice in the past two years. I wonder, uncle, whether you have enhanced or changed your qualifications.
treasure?"
Finished.
He also thought that such a treasure could not be exchanged for a life-extending fruit, and then said: "I still have a few ten-thousand-year-old elixirs. If they are not enough, I can give them to my uncle as well."
Zhang Heng thought for a while.
"You came at the right time."
"I just got a Star Transformation Pill recently. If you eat it, you can get the body of the stars the day after tomorrow. This body can be helped by the stars and the moon when practicing under the moonlight. The practice is twice the result with half the effort. The disadvantage is that it is best not to wear clothes when practicing.
If so, the effect will be halved.”
Zhang Heng waved his hand.
He had an extra pill in his hand and asked Han Li: "Are you satisfied with this pill?"
Han Li said shyly: "I don't like wearing clothes in my cave, so this pill is just right for me."
Well...
Young people are quite good at playing.
Okay, just don't dislike it.
Zhang Heng handed the Star Transformation Pill to Han Li and warned: "There is a secret room upstairs. You can go and refine the pill. I will protect you."
"Thank you uncle."
Han Li left happily.
After she left, Zhang Heng put away the longevity fruit and said to Hua Rou: "Look at Han Li, and then look at you. You are not young anymore. I haven't seen you bring anything back to my uncle."
Hua Rou looked aggrieved: "I also want to find some rare treasures, but I can't find them."
People's destinies are not the same.
When Han Li went out to travel, she would find ancient caves or innate secret realms every now and then.
The same cannot be said for Hua Rou. I have heard of such a thing but never seen it.
"Unlucky boy."
From Hua Rou, Zhang Heng thought of himself again.
Over the years, apart from signing in, he has never encountered any other opportunities.
Sometimes he couldn't help but think about it.
Could it be that the innate secret realm and the ancient cave were all prepared for a specific person.
Otherwise, after all these years of traveling around, why hasn't he seen a secret realm jump out in front of him?
"Uncle, my other good friend Yuan Wen seems to have disappeared. I have been unable to contact him in the past few years."
Hua Rou said with a melancholy look on her face.
"Yuan Wen?"
In Zhang Heng's mind, the young man who practiced swordplay all day long and was obsessed with swordsmanship appeared.
"Yuan Wen is not a short-lived person. His disappearance must be due to another opportunity."
Zhang Heng didn't care, and after speaking he asked: "What is Ying Zheng doing recently?"
Hua Rou replied: "Ying Zheng set up a recruiting center and promoted many officials of the East Palace. Even I was given the title of Prince Zuo Envoy and discussed national affairs all day long, acting like a small court."
Zhang Heng sighed: "These are wings."
One emperor and one courtier.
Although these East Palace officials are inconspicuous, after Ying Zheng ascends the throne, these people will be his power to control the palace.
"Uncle, there is something I don't know whether I should say."
Hua Rou thought of something: "I heard from some officials in the East Palace that in the early years, King Qin Wangyi forcibly practiced the Black Emperor's method for the sake of becoming the prince. As a result, he suffered injuries to his soul. He has not recovered over the years, but has become more serious.
.”
"Is there such a thing?" Zhang Heng frowned slightly.
"It should be true. In the past six months, King Qin Yi has rarely appeared in front of the ministers. There has been rumors in the palace that King Qin is addicted to pleasure. But everyone who knows King Qin knows that this is not a man who likes pleasure. No.
The King of Qin who manages the government."
Hua Rou lowered her voice: "If King Qin doesn't come forward, maybe there is something wrong with his health. In that case..."
Hua Rou didn't say anything else.
You know, Ying Zheng is already seventeen years old this year, and he has been the prince for several years.
If King Qin Yi has any shortcomings, it is natural that Ying Zheng will succeed him. Now Hua Rou is also considered a member of the Prince's Palace. When the tide rises and everyone becomes King Qin's Ying Zheng, there is no reason not to assign rights to them.
"It's just the right time for King Qin to get sick."
If Zhang Heng remembers correctly, from last year until now, Zhao State has been at war with Yan and Han.
Both sides had their own victories and defeats, and although Zhao was stronger, it did not gain much advantage.
If King Yi of Qin died at this time and Ying Zheng ascended the throne, the pressure on Zhao State would not be too great.
After Ying Zheng secures his throne and straightens out the country, he will also be in charge of offense and defense.
At that time, it was not what Zhao Guo wanted to do to Qin Guo, but whether Qin Guo allowed Zhao Guo to sleep soundly beside the couch.
"Time will correct everything."
"When you are in the Prince's Mansion, don't worry about it, don't ask questions, let everything fall into place."
"By the way, although Zhao Gao left our Henggu Zhai, you should not show too close to him, otherwise you will harm him."
"If it's absolutely necessary and you need to discuss something with someone, you can go to him."
"Zhao Gao is very witty and can come up with a plan."
Speaking of which.
Zhang Heng added: "After one plan, you can't rely on it again. This person can't be used twice."
Zhao Gao is a man who wants to do great things.
Throughout the ages, those who want to achieve great things must have little family affection.
This is a person who is similar to Zhao Yi, even worse than Zhao Yi. It is not that he cannot share wealth and honor, but when you share joys and sorrows, you must beware of him selling you out.
certainly.
Zhao Gao still has some agility and wisdom.
Otherwise, Zhao Gao, who had been in the palace for a year, would not have been appreciated by Ying Zheng and became a personal attendant.
