I have an eternal eye
Chapter 61 Zhou Dalang reveals the list
"Calling strange people and strangers, are you wrong?"
"Why are you lying to me? The announcement was posted this morning. It also said that those who are selected can also serve as officials in the court!"
"It's really nonsense. Only those foolish emperors would do this. Could it be that the emperor wants to make elixirs?"
"Shh, don't say these nonsense..."
People in Yujing love liveliness and gossip.
Interesting anecdotes in court and romantic scandals in the courtyard are all topics they enjoy talking about.
Zhang Biao shook his head slightly, not surprised.
The tunnels in Yujing City were exposed, the skeletons were built and there were many casualties, and coupled with the strange events in the past few days, the imperial court must have reacted.
To be honest, it's a bit slow.
But it's normal. Not everyone can react to the changes in the pattern.
In other words, I don't want to believe it.
This is the inertia of human thinking.
Even in the information-rich world of the previous life, when faced with the changes of the times, there were always many people who closed their eyes and would rather stay in their comfort zone and deceive themselves and others.
The imperial court summoned strange people and strangers simply to cope with the changes in the current situation.
But Zhang Biao was not very optimistic about it.
It's very simple. Those sects that have been passed down for a long time are still controlled by the upper-level forces.
They are used to seeing the ups and downs of dynasties, and they are not within the rules of this world at all. How can they believe in the loyalty of monarchs and ministers.
It is in their interests that the dynasty collapses.
Even Zhang Biao himself would not enter the court.
He knew very well the faces of the powerful people in the court.
Xuanyang lineage, Fang Xiangzong, he has the heritage of two sects. Once exposed, there will definitely be many people who want to rob him...
…
After leaving Fengyifang, Zhang Biao thought for a while and then headed towards Yongfufang in Nancheng.
Where do Wang Xin and Tie Shouming live?
Something happened yesterday, so most of them have returned home to rest.
When we arrived at Wang's house, sure enough, Wang Xin was lying on the bed groaning, his face pale and his whole body shaking.
"It's better to quit this job!"
The Queen Mother kept complaining at the side, "So many people died a while ago, and this is another batch. Fortunately, I saved a small life."
"Look, I've contracted the cold. The price of medicine is so expensive now. The money I earned through hard work is not enough to buy medicine..."
As he said that, he didn't know what he was thinking of, and whispered: "I heard that there is an old lady Bai in Tongyifang. The talisman water is very effective. Many people go to seek medical treatment. Brother Zhang, you have a lot of experience. Is this true or false?"
"Mom, that must be a lie!"
Wang Xin covered his forehead and said helplessly: "It's okay to be defrauded of money, but who will provide for you in old age if you eat to death..."
"Bah, bah, crow's mouth!"
Seeing the two arguing, Zhang Biao smiled and said: "It's okay, it's just a cold. I happen to know some medical skills, and acupuncture can treat it."
As he said that, he took out a needle from his arms.
Wang Xin said suspiciously: "Brother Biao, can you still do this?"
"I know a lot!"
Zhang Biao smiled slightly and without saying a word, he began to sterilize the needles and then performed acupuncture treatment.
Of course he knows why.
One is contracted by wind and cold, and the other is evil spirits entering the body.
Ordinary doctors only treat wind and cold, but the effect is naturally very poor. Just before he came, he read the Taoist medical classic "Tai Shi Nei Jing".
Having practiced martial arts all year round, it is no problem to identify acupoints with acupuncture.
Lieque, Yingxiang, Zhizheng, Fengmen...
Soon, Wang Xin's body was covered with silver needles.
"snort!"
While Zhang Biao was moving the needle, he hummed gently using the two-character formula "humha".
"hiss!"
Wang Xin took a deep breath, feeling his head instantly refreshed, and then he was sweating like rain all over his body.
"alright."
Zhang Biao put away the needle and said with a smile: "The cold on the surface has been resolved. I just need to rest at home for a few days."
"It feels much more comfortable..."
Wang Xin's eyes lit up, "Brother Biao, since you have this skill, why don't you open a medicine hall? Then I will quit my job to help."
The prince's father, who had been silent next to him, suddenly said: "It's better to quit. Something happened over there again. If I continue to do this, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life."
Zhang Biao was slightly stunned, "What happened again?"
Wang's father used to be a six-door catcher, but his ability was not enough. He was not even a bronze catcher. Now he only does chores like sweeping floors and running errands.
The royal father's eyes were a little frightened, "After the chief arrester came back, he made the entrance to the tunnel a forbidden area and heavily guarded it. He often led people down, but he didn't know what to do."
"During this period, people kept getting strange illnesses, with bones sprouting out of their bodies, like ghosts, and they died within a few hours."
"There is a silence order on this matter. Don't say anything when you go out..."
The words sent shivers down the spines of several people.
"The bones are coming out..."
Zhang Biao said thoughtfully: "It is indeed dangerous over there. I have never thought about opening a medicine hall, but I'd better quit my job at Six Doors."
"OK!"
Wang Xin also gritted his teeth and said pitifully: "Brother Biao, I will follow you from now on."
"Recuperate first and then talk about it."
After leaving Wang's house, Zhang Biao went to see a doctor in Tie Shouming. The other party also got the news and had the idea of leaving Liumen, but he had not yet made up his mind.
Zhang Biao didn't force himself. After doing this, he returned to Anzhenfang.
When he was approaching the door of his house, he saw Zhou Dalang.
The other person was limping, his clothes were in tatters, his face was covered in black and blue, his eyes were red and swollen, and he looked like he had just cried.
Zhang Biao frowned slightly, "Dalang, who bullied you again? Come on, I'll vent my anger on you."
Zhou Dalang was an honest man but also a stupid person. After Zhou's father went blind, he was the one selling live chickens and pork.
In the market, there are those who slaughter dogs out of righteousness, but there are also many scoundrels who bully the good.
"No, no, no..."
Unexpectedly, Zhou Dalang waved his hand quickly, returned to his home, and quickly closed the door.
Zhang Biao was stunned, shook his head, and returned home.
Zhou Dalang's matter was just an interlude. If the other party didn't want to ask for help, he wouldn't be too lazy to take action.
There was only one thing on his mind at the moment.
Previously, the king's father said that someone in Liumen was suffering from a strange disease, with bones sprouting all over his body, which seemed to be recorded in "Youxian Ji".
Returning to his room, he took out the transcript of "Youxian Ji" and searched it carefully...
…………
Next door, Father Zhou kept cursing in a low voice, "It's a good thing that Zhang Biao resigned from his job after being beaten up by the thugs. He took all his anger out on us."
"You are also a good-for-nothing. What's the point of living for me and my father? Let's just hang ourselves together..."
He cursed and began to cry again.
Zhou Dalang on the side turned a deaf ear, lowered his head, and stared at the pigs in the pig pen in the distance.
His face was uncertain, but he finally gritted his teeth, turned around and left.
"where did you go?!"
"I can't even scold you a few times, you're a worthless thing! Woo hoo..."
Behind him, Father Zhou kept cursing.
Zhou Dalang was limping with a look of madness on his face. It took him a full hour to arrive outside the imperial city.
It was very lively outside the imperial city at the moment.
The people gathered in a circle and cheered loudly from time to time.
In the open space in the center of the circle, some people were playing snakes, some were breathing fire, and some were cutting straw paper with wooden knives, and strange patterns appeared on the paper...
In the distance, under the imperial list, a row of soldiers guarded with guns.
Luan Moyan, the emperor's personal eunuch, sat on the chair.
At this moment, he is not as cowardly as he was in the palace. He is sitting on a chair with great momentum, sipping tea carefully.
He looks relaxed, but in fact his brows are furrowed.
Emperor Zhao Mian left it to him to personally handle the matter of summoning strange people.
It's a good thing and a bad thing.
Originally, such a ridiculous thing would definitely cause an uproar in the court, but he saw with his own eyes this morning that except for a few stunned officials, everyone else remained silent.
Things got out.
He saw the anger of Prime Minister Liu Ji,
He even saw the sneer on the corner of the emperor's mouth.
Full of compliments,
No one can be trusted!
Luan Moyan saw the opportunity and called together strange people and strangers. If he could get it done, it would be a smooth road.
Unfortunately, since the imperial list was posted, many people have come, but they are all liars who do not know how to live or die.
Luan Moyan was already a little annoyed.
He knew that among the crowd, there were always spies from all walks of life.
This matter turned into a farce, and his life was in danger!
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
At this moment, Zhou Dalang pushed through the crowd, limped to Luan Moyan, and loudly said with his hands in front of Luan Moyan: "The common people have real abilities and are willing to serve the emperor!"
"Hahaha!"
"Another cripple!"
The people around burst into laughter.
Luan Moyan noticed something strange, put down the tea cup, narrowed his eyes and said, "What are you capable of?"
Zhou Dalang gasped and said loudly: "I understand the language of birds and animals, and I can talk to them!"
As he said that, he turned around and looked around, and suddenly made a strange hissing sound in his mouth.
"ah-!"
"What's the matter!"
The snake charmer was suddenly unlucky. Several tame poisonous snakes suddenly became ferocious and gave him a few mouthfuls.
If the fangs had not been pulled out, he would have died on the spot.
The people around him were stunned.
"good!"
Luan Moyan stood up suddenly, came to Zhou Dalang in person, and said with a smile: "You are indeed a stranger. Your Majesty is thirsty for talents, and the Liang Dynasty will not treat you badly!"
After that, he waved his hand.
Immediately, soldiers came over carrying the box.
Luan Moyan kicked it open, pointed to the neat piles of silver inside, and said loudly: "The emperor has decreed that those who enter the court will be rewarded with five thousand silver first, and those who have made great achievements will be promoted to a higher rank and can climb the Qingyun Ladder!"
The people around him suddenly took a breath of cold air.
Luan Moyan saw the surprised and uncertain looks in many people's eyes and sneered in her heart.
So what if the news leaks out.
What others can give, the emperor can give more!
You can buy horse bones with thousands of gold, but you can’t summon anyone if you don’t believe it!
Amidst the envious eyes of the people around him and the compliments from Luan Moyan, Zhou Dalang felt completely elated.
After being frightened by the chicken monster's sneak attack that day, he discovered something strange, and strange voices often appeared in his head.
Gradually, he can understand the language of birds and animals, and can even imitate their sounds and command the beasts.
This discovery horrified him.
I had been impulsive before, and I could no longer stand the poor life and the abuse, so I thought I would take a gamble, and at worst, I would be beaten as a lunatic.
I didn’t expect that it would really work.
Is this what it feels like to be developed...
Zhou Dalang suddenly understood his father.
"Here, come and say congratulations!"
After asking Zhou Dalang's details, Luan Moyan immediately ordered Jin Wuwei to bring a tall horse, carry a box full of silver, and beat gongs and drums all the way to Anzhenfang.
He knew very well what Zhou Dalang wanted...
Among the crowd, there was another young man, Tian Yue, the former tomb robber. His eyes turned red with envy, he gritted his teeth, turned around and left...
…
Anzhenfang, Zhang Family Courtyard.
"found it!"
Zhang Biao found a page of notes, and there was a conversation on it that suddenly mentioned this evil object.
That's a kind of demon, a rare white bone demon!
The so-called demons are usually transformed from wild beasts, but the white-bone demon is transformed from bones. It is good at hiding, absorbing human essence and blood, and can transform into humans in the future.
This thing is full of treasures!
Zhang Biao was full of interest, but suddenly frowned and raised his head, only to hear a commotion outside...
