Naturally, Yu Xian had no ability to bring the dead back to life.
He cleverly used the "breath of life" to replenish the vitality of the carp's body. The strong vitality stimulated the recently dead cells to start metabolism again.
New cells replace dead cells and grow vigorously.
The fish body itself has a strong muscle memory.
Sometimes when a fish's head is chopped off, its body can still struggle for a long time.
So in the eyes of many woodcutters, the carps that had died and started to emit a fishy smell came back to life.
Yu Xian was afraid that someone would find out the clues as time went on, so he calmly looked at the woodcutters who were kowtowing like they were pounding garlic, and said, "Hurry up and don't live up to my good intentions."
The man woke up, gratefully picked up the fish from the ground, and hurried into Guancheng.
The other woodcutters looked on with envy. After a long while, someone came forward timidly and asked cautiously, "Old fairy, can we also learn how to fish for sale like him?"
Yu Xian was surprised when he heard this.
After he revealed such magical powers, these people could only think of fish.
He shook his head and said, "You just go fishing. If you talk about dying for a living, this is not the opportunity for you to wait."
After Yu Xian finished speaking, the woodcutter felt regretful and regretted not having gone with that man yesterday.
The man brought fresh fish into the city, and soon he came out happily.
Someone went up to inquire.
It was said that it was sold to the steward of the Mi family.
Moreover, the steward said that there will be distinguished guests coming in these days, so if there are good fish, there is no need to look elsewhere, just send them to you.
Many woodcutters became more and more envious after hearing this.
For three days in a row, the man went to the Yellow River to catch carp and asked Yu for some fresh food.
Because the carp delivered was extremely delicious, the Mi family was very generous. In just three days, the profit was dozens of times greater than before.
There were also some woodcutters who wanted to come to Yu Xian's place to try their luck, but unfortunately Yu Xian ignored them and only favored that man.
On this day, the man finished selling the fresh fish and was about to go back with many woodcutters.
Yu Xian calmly said to him, "You and I have run out of opportunities. You can still sell firewood tomorrow."
The man was horrified and asked hurriedly, "Old god, what did I do wrong?"
Yu Xian heard this and smiled and said, "You are not at fault. You answer my questions and I will give you some small favors. They are just ordinary interactions. Do you want me to owe you for the rest of my life?"
The man was speechless after hearing this.
But what Yu Xian said was true, so he could only leave in frustration.
When he returned to the mountain settlement, the man slowly returned home, threw the money he got from selling fish into a wooden box, went out again and said to the old man in the yard, "The old god refuses to help, and we will have to wait for him tomorrow."
Go sell firewood again."
When the old man heard this, he was not as depressed as the other man. "After all, you can only rely on yourself to be at ease."
He pointed to the diesel truck that had been loaded a few days ago and threw the pole on the ground towards the man.
The man took it, smiled, leaned the pole by the door, and returned to the house.
The next day, the man still went to Guancheng to sell firewood with the convoy in the mountains.
He asked other people in the same industry and learned that the good days of fast sales could last for a while.
The woodcutters usually walked the streets and alleys, and it was very convenient for them to get information.
They also relied heavily on the merchants and troops in the city, so they paid special attention to these things.
According to the families of the military attachés in the city, the world is about to become peaceful, and this business road will become even busier in the future.
The man listened slowly and had a rough idea of what was happening now.
On this day, he sold firewood casually.
After selling a load, he didn't go to the firewood truck to load firewood. He couldn't help but go to Yu Xian to collect firewood.
Yu Xian was still joking with the children in shabby clothes. When he saw him approaching, he just glanced at him and looked away.
The man was embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
After listening for a while, Yu Xian suddenly asked the children, "Which of you knows why the merchants of the Mi family stayed in Guancheng for several days?"
The man's heart moved, and he hurriedly said before the children, "I know this, I know it."
Those children had long heard about what happened to Yu Xian, and when they heard what was said, they all said angrily to the man, "We know it too!"
"You had opportunities before, but now you are still greedy."
Yu Xian was speechless and laughed when he heard this.
He said to the man, "I am just asking casually. I have no favors for you this time."
The man felt a little regretful after hearing this, but he quickly said, "I have already benefited from the old god, and the villain is just doing his best."
When the boys saw Yu Xian, they said there was no benefit, and they stopped fighting with him.
The man quickly came closer, cleared his throat, and told what he had learned.
It turns out that after Dong Bai captured Chang'an, he was not too implicated, but instead maintained the status quo of the court to a certain extent.
The official positions of the Three Gongs and Nine Ministers are still in the hands of Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Ma Rixi, Huangfu Song and others.
In addition to controlling the Xiliang soldiers entrenched in Yiwu and urging for money and food from time to time, Dong Bai seldom interfered with the government affairs.
This made the important officials of the Han Dynasty think.
No matter what kind of undercurrents are raging under the surface, the peace on the surface is not only important to Dong Bai, but also important to them.
The current situation seems to be full of wars and chaos. But in fact, only a few people are instigating the rebellion, and the majority are still those neutral factions who control the county.
These large numbers of neutrals often have two priorities.
One tends to win, the other tends to maintain the status quo.
None of the current princes have enough advantages to become the winner.
If Dong Bai can stabilize the general situation of the world and prevent the situation from getting worse, then these people will be inclined to obey Dong Bai.
For the important officials in the court, maintaining this illusion is equally important.
Because if the authority of the Chang'an court is lost, people like them will be worthless.
Only by first establishing the authority of the Chang'an court, suppressing the local factions, and then calmly recovering the power of the local factions can we have enough power to counterattack Dong Bai.
In history, this is how the Chang'an courtiers and Li Jue and Guo Si reached a compromise.
——This co-ruling Chang'an court lasted for three years.
Dong Bai's ascension obviously failed to shake the inertia of history. The Chang'an court still sent three special envoys to Guandong to comfort the world.
Along the way is Grand Tutor Ma Rixi, and his destination is Hebei. There, Yuan Shaozheng and his caring younger brother Cao Cao fought a bloody battle with Gongsun Zan, who had brought the little pony Liu Bei.
Along the way is the imperial servant Zhao Qi, and his destination is Jingbei. There, the competition between Yuan Shu and Liu Biao has become fierce. During the siege of Xiangyang, Yuan Shu had just killed his caring younger brother Sun Jian.
There was also a special envoy who came straight to Zhongmou with the purpose of persuading Zhu Jun to join the court.
The chief officer of this route is Taiwei Zhou Zhong, and his deputy is the newly appointed Shangshu, Jia Xu.
