In the fourth year of Taiyuan, the second day of the second lunar month. Xiangyang City was engulfed by the war, and a horse rushed out of the city, broke through the black smoke toward the south, and went away.

At noon, the sun was shining brightly, and Chen Xing couldn't help urging his horse to escape from Xiangyang. He had already run for nearly twenty miles with Xiang Shu. There were crowds of people along the way. On the Dangyang Road in the south, there were all the people who were dragging their families and their families to flee, crying all over the field for a while, the road was so crowded that they could not walk, and there were endless cries of people who were looking for them.

One hundred and fifty years ago, Guan Yu besieged Cao Wei's garrison outside the city, flooding seven armies, and made a brilliant record. After that, he was defeated and walked to Maicheng, and it was this avenue that he took. For a while, the sound of mourning shook the heavens and the earth, as if paying homage to the immortal god of war in China many years ago.

Chen Xing was upset. Seeing that the crowd couldn't get through, he had to change to a path. When he got to the foot of a mountain, he put Xiang Shu down and untied the heavy ropes tied with five flowers.

In the years of war, Jingzhou had ten rooms and nine empty spaces, and the people either crossed south to Jiaozhi, or fled east to Jiankang, Suzhou and other places. Chen Xing walked through the woods and found a small village at the foot of the mountain. In the afternoon when winter and spring alternated, the fog gradually rose, creating a quiet atmosphere.

Apparently, the village had also gone through a lot of escape. It was a mess, and the vicious poultry and dogs were taken away. Chen Xing broke into two empty doors and saw no one. had to find some water by the well for this guy to drink, check his face again, and toss for a whole night, but fortunately he was fine. It's almost six hours. After the medicinal power subsides, it is expected that Xiang Shu's meridians will recover. He has to find something to eat as soon as possible to restore his physical strength... This guy is really too thin. Not bad.

According to the roster in Zhu Xu's hand, Xiang Shu was twenty this year, only four years older than Chen Xing. But there are many Hu people who married and had children when they were thirteen years old. At this age, they can start a family and start a business.

"Dharma Protector, do you feel better?" Chen Xing looked at Xiang Shu's appearance in the sunshine. Xiang Shu's face was blackened by the smoke of the fireworks. He was already tall and looked like a savage. But Chen Xing looked at himself, and it was not much better. The soldiers and horses came down in chaos, and the two faced each other, like two beggars.

Chen Xing brought some water and wiped Xiang Shu's face. It was impossible to wipe his face. His face was clean. In Xiang Shu's messy beard, his eyes were still clear and bright. It is as sharp as a sword, with eyes as deep as the night sky, and the lips under the beard are rosy due to the medicinal power.

My guardians look so good!

Chen Xing couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really a beautiful jade!"

And all over the body, except that it meets the size standard of the Hu people... The facial features and skin do not show the characteristics of the Hu people at all. Where is the Hu tribe? Dress him in a scholar's robe and wear an ancient sword, and Shi Shi is a handsome and famous scholar, with clogs treading the wind, the clear roaring moon, and the literati in Jiankang who only know the wind and snow, all have to stand aside.

Although Chen Xing doesn't have any requirements for the appearance of the Dharma protector, as long as he can fight. The road ahead is long and there are many thorns. For those who are useless and lucky, and can only rely on God to help retreat the enemy, it is really important to have a protector who can fight.

However, good-looking men are pleasing to the eye, and they will always be in a good mood when they watch them around. But God bless you, don't be an embroidered pillow like yourself.

"I heard that the King of Qin, Fu Jian, likes good-looking men." Chen Xing sat under the tree, put Xiang Shu on his lap, and rubbed his neck casually, saying, "He also kept Murong Chong in the palace before. In a few months, we have to find an opportunity to go north to Chang'an, and then I will take care of it for you, and you will impress him with your beauty!"

Xiang Shu's fingers moved slightly, and Chen Xing got up and went to the river to wash the cloth. The stream was full of broken ice, and the water was freezing to the bone.

"...It doesn't matter whether you are a Hu or a Han, as long as you don't kill people indiscriminately, then..."

Before finishing a sentence, Chen Xing suddenly slapped the back of his head and fainted.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Xing was splashed with water all over his face, woke up, and found himself stripped of his outer robe, wearing only a single shirt, wrapped in a quilt, and even a chair. He was bound by Xiang Shu and carried out. in the backyard.

Chen Xing woke up and shouted angrily, "Is that how you treat your savior like this?"

Xiang Shu casually checked Chen Xing's things in turn. There was a charcoal stove on the side, which was on fire, and a pot of white rice porridge was cooked on the stove. Apparently it was the last bit of rice found from the farmers.

Chen Xing: "You bastard, speak up!"

Xiang Shu looked at Chen Xing's dagger over and over, played with it twice, put it aside, and then checked his carry-on medicine bag. He didn't know the medicine at all.

"Heaven Comes"

Chen Xing was wrapped like a worm, tied tightly, unable to move.

Xiang Shu went to the well to draw a bucket of water, and when he was naked, he did not avoid Chen Xing. Anyway, he had read everything he should have seen, and began to wash his hair and take a bath. After taking a shower, face the water and shave with Chen Xing's dagger.

Chen Xing: "Hey! Hey!"

The beard fell, and in less than half an hour, Xiang Shu packed himself up. When he turned around, although he was too thin to be human, he still had a handsome face, deep eyes, clear face, and incomparably heroic. He sat in front of the stove, Start eating.

Chen Xing's stomach growled with a "gum".

After drinking the porridge, Xiang Shu entered the room, flipped over two of the male host's single clothes and put on them. The male host was a hunter before his death. Xiang Shu took the hunting jacket and put on his military sleeves. When he came out, his clothes were too small. , but also a bit majestic.

Chen Xing: "..."

This is clearly a Han, how could it be a Hu? Chen Xing forgot about other things for a while, and only thought to himself.

Xiang Shu took the Orion's bow and arrow, rolled up Chen Xing's dagger, robe, and medicine bag, led the horse, turned on the horse, and glanced at Chen Xing indifferently.

Chen Xing struggled: "Let me go! You tie me here, I will die!"

Xiang Shu turned the horse's head, and Chen Xing shouted from behind: "Don't you want to be a Dharma protector? If it's not right, it's not right! Where did I provoke you to provoke you! I saved your life, and I had the opportunity to kill you. You see I didn't do anything..."

Xiang Shu turned his back to Chen Xing, and when he was riding his horse slowly, he suddenly heard these words, stopped slowly, bent his bow and shot an arrow, and turned slightly sideways to Chen Xing.

Chen Xing: "..."

Immediately after, Xiang Shu's arrow left the string, and the arrow shot straight at it!

As soon as Chen Xing closed his eyes, he felt that the rope on his body loosened and was broken by the arrow.

"Drive!" Xiang Shu shouted.

Xiang Shu rode his horse, turned onto the road, and left the village.

"Hey!" Chen Xing ran out in a single shirt, gritted his teeth and said, "Come back to me! Dharma protector! Son of a bitch!"

This is the first time Chen Xing has heard Xiang Shu's voice. The sound of "driving" is clear, powerful, and powerful. Chen Xing couldn't help but think, the voice of my Dharma protector is so nice... not right! A bastard is a bastard! How did the guardian escape!

As the sun went down, a gust of cold wind blew past, and Chen Xing was dazed, standing in the village, looking around.

What to do now? Chen Xing was completely stupid. There was another "gu" sound in his stomach.

I'm so hungry... Xiang Shu has something left to eat, so let's fill his stomach first. Chen Xing was already too hungry, so let's eat first. I don't know where the bastard went, where did I provoke him to mess with him! Chen Xing thought about it, and almost turned the whole pot of porridge up.

At night, the ground in Jingzhou suddenly cooled down. Chen Xing hid in the abandoned house and rummaged for clothes to wear. A dog came from out of nowhere and kept barking at him. Ordering food with it, the dog got a meal, and seemed to gradually accept the reality of being abandoned by the owner, and spent this long cold night with him.

Chen Xing wrapped everything that could be wrapped in the abandoned house, and hugged the dog together, trembling, and said, "It's so cold, how could this be? The protector chosen by Xin Deng is actually a bastard?"

Chen Xing lamented in his heart, in this long cold night, he couldn't help but think of the expectations that were completely shattered by reality. On the day he set off from Lishan, he could never have imagined that things would turn out like this in the end.

It is only because the exorcists have always set up the post of "guardian", in order to protect the exorcists from collecting and eliminating demons without interference. And the great exorcist who sits in the General Administration, the guardian law around him has a resounding name "Martial God".

Now there is only one exorcist in the world, Chen Xing. Naturally, he is also the "Great Exorcist". As for the god of war, Xin Deng pointed out Xiang Shu as the protector for him.

Chen Xing had read a lot of ancient books, and the ancient book silk was left in it. It was half a sacrificial text written by the protector Wen Che to the exorcist Xin Yuanping. Xin Yuanping died in the battle against the Sishui demon dragon. Wen Che killed the demon dragon for the sake of After his revenge, he threw himself into Sishui and forgot.

In the Han Dynasty, Xie Yiwu, the prefect of Jingzhou, was also a great exorcist. He never married and had children all his life. He was accompanied by the world-famous General Hu Ben and the first swordsman Wang Yue, and became a legend of a generation.

Going forward, Liuhou Zhangliang worshipped Duke Huangshi as his teacher and was proficient in techniques. As for his Dharma protector, there have always been different opinions, some say it is Xiao He, and some say it is Han Xin. But just many years after Zhang Liang borrowed his death to escape, Han Xin was trapped and killed by Xiao He and Empress Lu. Historically, historians have always criticized Xiao He, and even guessed that it was Han Xin, and there were also left and right protectors in front of the Han Dynasty Great Exorcist. Say it.

Half asleep and half awake, he fell into the memory of the master when he was dying.

"Sui Xing's entry into life is what you rely on in your life, and it is also a hurdle you must face. Sui Xing reappears in a hundred years, and only stays in the world for twenty years. When the twenty years are up, he will return to the sky."

Chen Xing followed behind the master and said, "So my good luck can only be used at the age of twenty."

"No, far more than that, Suixing will be released from your natal chart." Master stopped, turned around in front of Fenglin, and explained to Chen Xing: "Under what circumstances can a person be lost? His main star? You must have known it already, so I don't need to say more."

Chen Xing felt like a thunderclap in an instant.

"I...I don't live to twenty."

The master replied indifferently: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are all determined by heaven. All things in the heaven and earth have their own way of life, and all things in heaven and earth have their final destination. God has given you this fate, why not take advantage of the limited time you can live. New Years, do something for China?"

"Since you dreamed, you should go to Xiangyang, you are the great exorcist." The master's voice still echoed in his ears: "In your body, there is the only magic weapon heart lamp that still works in the world, the world is dark and dark, In the dark night where the stars are hidden, you are the seed of light in the world. In these four years, you must use all your strength to find the mana of the world's annihilation, find the source of the dryness of heaven and earth, and use your heart Lights, to light up the four fields."

"Naturally, if you want to do nothing and spend the rest of your life before the age of 20 idle, what is your 'Dao' in this short life of 20 years, go find it, go after it."

The next day, Chen Xing scoured, found some dry food, and fed the dog. All he wore was a large flower jacket worn by the hostess and a man's cotton pants. He left the village on the road—horses, silver coins, and medicine bags were all snatched by Xiang Shu, so he could only walk. We have to go to Maicheng first, and find a way to get some tolls to go to Chang'an.

When the dog saw Chen Xing leave, he also came out, wagging his tail and chasing after him.

Thinking of Xiang Shu, Chen Xing just... took a deep breath, not as good as a dog! This dog got a meal and knew to follow him! Forget it, as the master said, life must be looked at a little more, the future is long, and if it is really destined, this guy probably won't be able to escape. If not? What's there to be angry about?

Having said that, within half a month of leaving the mountain, he suffered such a big setback, and after all, Chen Xing was very depressed, and he really couldn't figure out what he had done wrong.

Just as he was thinking about it, a horse-drawn carriage suddenly stopped on the side of the road.

"Hey! Come on!" someone shouted at him: "Where are you from? The wife asked you to get in the car!"

Chen Xing: "?"

On the way south to Maicheng, there were many people with their families and their families in the early morning. Many of them were big families who fled from the north. Chen Xing was wearing a thick flower jacket and a dog behind him. The foolish son of the landlord's family. Unlucky and good-looking, it was somewhat unbearable, so a motorcade slowed down and took him up with his dog.

This is a family of scholars who escaped from Fancheng. The master is in his fifties, with his wife and ten-year-old daughter, an old lady in the family, and the family maid. When they learned that the city of Xiangyang was broken, they hurried to the south. , and prepared to go to Changsha County to join relatives after passing Maicheng. The old man was very old, and he fled in a hurry at night. When he learned that the Han people had been slaughtered, he was very sad. He was stuck in his chest, lying in the car, unable to move, and he could barely close his eyes.

"What's the matter?" Chen Xing first thanked the old lady for her help, and briefly explained the origin. He only said that he was a scholar from the south, and then looked at the half-dead master, touched the pulse gate, and learned about the condition, and asked: "Are you ill? Do you have any needles? Lend me one and moxibustion once will be fine."

The wife hurriedly ordered someone to bring embroidery needles. Chen Xing burned them and used the needles for the master. Sure enough, after seven needles, the middle-aged man suddenly spit out a mouthful of bruised blood, woke up leisurely, and burst into tears.

"Divine Doctor!"

"Divine Doctor—!"

Everyone hurriedly thanked Chen Xing for saving his life, Chen Xing waved his hands humbly, and was taken to Maicheng. Along the way, Chen Xing roughly explained how he was robbed by Xiang Shu.

"You are not looking for a guard." The wife said, "You are looking for an ancestor."

"The world is getting worse, and people's hearts are not ancient." The old lady said again.

"Isn't that true?" Chen Xing confided and felt a little better. They met by chance and parted ways in Maicheng. The family gave him a thank-you gift of forty taels of silver and gave him a roast chicken.

Chen Xing was carrying the heavy three jins of silver ingots and said goodbye to them. Now that he has money again, he should change his clothes first, and then change the silver to gold, otherwise it would be very uncomfortable to drag his pants down and it would be inconvenient to carry them. That said, it's easy to get robbed.

"The day my mother gave birth to me." Chen Xingchao followed his dog and said, "It is said that when Suixing came into the world, from the day she was born, she was lucky. Look, did you eat roast chicken?"

Chen Xing distributed half a roast chicken to the dog, first went to the bathroom, took a comfortable bath, and then went to the garment shop to pick and choose, bought new clothes, changed his body, and returned to the appearance of your son. Bought a small mink jacket for the dog and swaggered to the bank.

At that time, Maicheng was small, but it had all the internal organs. As the largest cargo distribution center in Jingzhou, Xiangyang was besieged a year ago, and all the merchants who passed by changed their business here. The Jin army could not save Xiangyang, and had to defend Maicheng, but they still had some ability to protect themselves. The news of Xiangyang City's destruction was brought here with the people who fled south, and the streets were bustling with refugees and people overnight.

The inns, tea sheds, and restaurants in the city were crowded with rich people who went south, and there was a lot of voices. Some of them were willing to pay for the army to fight back, or some felt that this place was not safe after all, and it was better to go south as soon as possible. It's really scary.

First go to the bank to exchange money, and then enter the official government to sign a customs clearance document, and then you can go north to Chang'an smoothly. Qin and Jin are at war, and customs clearance must be very cautious.

Chen Xing entered the bank with a load of three catties and four taels of silver on his back. The bank was already packing up and was ready to flee. As soon as he entered the main hall, he suddenly found that there was no sound inside, and the atmosphere was indescribably strange.

"Treasurer, I want to change..." Chen Xing's voice stopped abruptly.

The clerks, shopkeepers, and thugs in the bank all had their mouths open, and their wrists and ankles were surrounded by iron rods removed from the bank window. When they heard Chen Xing come in, they turned their heads together and opened their mouths to look at him—all of them had their chins covered. Pulled out of the socket like a goose with glaring eyes.

A man leaned lightly in front of the money exchange window, turned sideways, resting his left arm on the counter, wearing an Orion suit, it was Xiang Shu!

Xiang Shu tapped his finger on the counter, motioning the shopkeeper to take the money quickly. The shopkeeper tremblingly opened his mouth with a dislocated jaw, and used a slide rule to draw out a row of gold ingots for Xiang Shu, wrapping it in a small bag, and hurriedly gestured to Chen Xing with his eyes.Run fast.

Xiang Shu heard the sound, turned his head slightly, and looked at Chen Xing.

Passing a team of Jin soldiers outside the door, Chen Xing roared decisively:

"Come here! Someone is robbing the bank!"
