Chapter 17: The Continuation of Life


Humans are slaves to genes.The essence of life is the continuation of genes, as the carrier of genes, most of the actions of human beings, such as making friends, falling in love, nurturing, etc., are governed by genes to do, all for an ultimate purpose: to better continue genes.There are two ways to continue genes.One is normal reproduction, which produces the next generation through friendship between men and women.In this way, as long as the genes of the next generation can be better passed on, human beings can give up their own interests, let themselves suffer, and even die, and the resulting quality stories such as dedication and selflessness are sung.Another way to continue is eternal life, for which Qin Shi Huang gave his all, and the kings of the past have never stopped pursuing it, but except for myths and legends, there is no actual record of 'people' who have succeeded.Zhao Zhen is very sober, and Tie Xi is also very sober, so their genes are also very sober, so when the ragged Tang Xiaoxiao is at a very close distance from him, even if Tie Xi tries to control himself, he instinctively controls his eyes, and he will still glance at Tang Xiaoxiao from time to time, and even he himself does not realize it.Wei Chiwen's attention was on the crazy big man in the courtyard, but Tang Xiao's attention never left Tie Xi.She is a very smart woman, and when Yu Chiwen and Tie Xi came to the door, she realized that she had encountered a unique opportunity in her life.is simply that she has a relationship with filthy people, and she doesn't need big names like Wei Chiwen and Tiexi to find herself.They appeared in front of her, representing only one thing, and she was useful.At this moment, she found another use for herself.Tang Xiaoxiao quietly pulled his clothes, very hidden, leaving no traces, so that Tie Xi could see more, and it would not arouse his alertness.Tie Xi was just as she thought, and his eyes aimed at her more often, until the catcher came and subdued the big man, and the three of them came down from the eaves.The first thing Tie Xi did was to ask Tang Xiaoxiao to go back to the room to pick up the complete clothes and change them into, as for how to deal with the big man, after nodding his head and responding to the greetings of the fast catchers, he didn't care much.Wei Chiwen will take care of everything."

The woman ran in this direction."

Wei Chiwen walked over, pointed to the west, and said with a smile: "Tokyo City is under martial law, even if she has an accomplice to take over, she will definitely be able to catch her at sunset at the latest." ”"I don't think it's right."

Tie Xi glanced back at him: "Since we can catch it, there is no need to catch it so early, it is impossible that there are no other Liao countries in Tokyo City, and this woman can just help us catch them." ”"I know what you mean, but I don't think it's necessary."

Tie Xi thought of it, and Wei Chiwen thought of it earlier: "The task given to us by the official family is to catch the assassin, and anything else is superfluous.The battle of the sixteen states of Youyun, as long as the Hami State sends troops, this battle will undoubtedly be won, it is nothing more than a matter of time, even if we wipe out the Liao State in Tokyo City, how much help will it be to the battlefield?

Ignore them, but you won't get out of the way. ”"The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill, you are too confident.""

It's not self-confidence, it's that it has nothing to do with you."

Yu Chiwen didn't let a single step: "The lion fights the rabbit, and also do your best, you want to put a long line and hang a big fish, who knows if it just falls into the arms of others, you dare to say that the other party must have no chance to escape?"

In the end, I really didn't catch it, what did you pay?

It's not that the official family says it's okay, and you think it's okay?

The reason why I am in Tokyo and the reason why the Hami Kingdom still has power in Tokyo is to help you become the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and other than that, everything has nothing to do with us.To put it mildly, even if the battle of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun is lost?

With you, with me, with Hami, it's not a good thing. ”"What do you mean?""

If the Liao State does not fall one day, the Great Song Dynasty will need the power of Hami one day, the heavier the weight of you, the prince, the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun should not be recovered in the hands of Zhao Zhen, it is right to recover in your hands.Everyone understands this truth, the reason why this battle must be fought, I say something unpleasant, is nothing more than the king's homeland feelings in his heart.The old people of Hami all know that if the king doesn't integrate with the Great Song Dynasty so much at the beginning, and we develop ourselves, maybe it will be Hami who will occupy this world in the future.Now ......"

Yu Chiwen paused, and then said: "There is still a chance, but the king himself is unwilling." ”Tie Xinyuan's road should not stop here in Hami Country, this is the truest thought in Wei Chiwen's heart, the more he knows Tie Xinyuan, the more he understands what kind of hero this is.Hami, the Great Song Dynasty, Western Xia, and even further in the Western Regions, there are many places that can be seen and cannot be seen, and Tiexinyuan has the ability to create an empire that is even stronger than the Tang Dynasty at its peak, and has a wider territory.He can do it.But he doesn't.Tie Xinyuan confined himself to Hami, and it seemed that a Hami had completely filled his heart.This is not right, because he still has ambitions.Wei Chiwen could clearly perceive from Tie Xinyuan's Wen Zali that Tie Xinyuan had a deep plan for the future, and the scale was beyond everyone's imagination.Otherwise, there would be no railroad in this world, and the emergence of the railroad was the prototype of that empire.He could have done all of this by himself, but he gave everything to Tie Xi, regardless of whether Tie Xi had the ability or not.Every time Wei Chiwen thinks about it in his heart, he hates and loves Tie Xinyuan, if Tie Xinyuan does it himself, he Wei Chiwen can experience what a magnificent era, but after handing these over to Tie Xi, it means that he has the opportunity to open up that era with his own hands.The leader of this era must be Tie Xi, so he is unwilling to do anything that may prevent Tie Xi from becoming the monarch of the Great Song Dynasty.It's not that it doesn't work, it's just that it's not necessary."

It's necessary.""

This is my country, and I can't tolerate a swarm of buzzing flies next to my pillow," Teki said. ”Wei Chiwen was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had misheard."

Let's go."

Tie Xi glanced at the stunned Wei Chiwen, turned around and walked out of the courtyard.Tang Xiaoxiao had already changed his clothes and walked to Yu Chiwen's side, looking at Yu Chiwen's expression very strangely."

Lord Wei Chi, that's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

She said."

With your reminder?"

Yu Chi Wen glanced at Tang Xiaoxiao and kept up with Tie Xi's footsteps.Tang Xiao pursed his lips and followed.Wei Chiwen said that it was not unintentional to find the woman's shadow before sunset, and within a quarter of an hour when they came out of the courtyard, someone came to Tie Xi and knelt down, saying that he had found the woman's hiding place, in a calligraphy and painting shop, according to Tie Xi's request, there was no grass and snake."

And then what do we do."

Wei Chiwen asked Tie Xi, his expression was a little reluctant, and his voice was a little unnatural."

Go straight in."

Tie Xi didn't seem to notice the change in Wei Chiwen, paced out, and took the lead in pushing open the door of the calligraphy and painting shop.It is a fact that everyone knows that the Liao State has fine works in the Great Song Dynasty, and many lists of fine works are directly placed on the desks of Zhao Zhen and Kaifeng Mansion, but no one has ever troubled them, because there is no need.Previously, the national strength of the Liao State had not declined, so what could it do if the fine work was caught?

Maybe the front foot will be in prison, and the back foot will politely invite people out, and compensate for the losses of others.Now that the Liao and Song dynasties have officially torn their faces, not moving those people is another reason, and the calligraphy and painting shop is one of them.The owner, known as Zhuang Kyung-hyun, has been running the shop in Tokyo for more than 20 years, and is now in his fifties, with a good reputation, and the little beggars passing by are generally satisfied when they want to beg for a drink.The business is not good or bad, and there is a slight surplus in addition to making ends meet.The days are quiet and quiet, and it is our duty.When the woman knocked on the door of the shop, he knew that this was the end of his life.When Tie Xi walked in, the old guy was sitting in the store drinking tea, and I don't know if he noticed Tie Xi and his party coming in, pouring good tea by themselves, and drinking it all."

Would His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want a drink?"

Zhuang Qingxian finished drinking the tea in the cup before he looked up at Tie Xi, obviously countless bright steel knives were facing him, and his expression was not a little scared."

Forget it, I'm afraid your tea is poisonous."

Tie Xi kept a distance from him, and sighed: "If you want to die, you can die, and there is no need to find me as a companion." ”Zhuang Qingxian glanced at the guards surrounding him and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really cautious, if those two also have the mind of the Prince, the matter has already been resolved, how can there be the current embarrassment." ”Tie Xi said with a smile: "The truth is this, but if you don't kill me, things will still take a turn, kill me, not only will they not be able to get out of Tokyo City, but the Great Song Dynasty and Hami will also immediately declare war on the Liao State, this is the same as what they want to do when they come to the Great Song Dynasty, isn't it putting the cart before the horse?"

”"At least the old man won't die."

Zhuang Qingxian put down the cup in his hand, and could see that his lips had appeared slightly purple and blue: "So many people say that the prince is very lucky, from the day he was born, he is destined to be the ruler of two kingdoms, so that people can't even muster the courage to kill you." ”Tie Xi smiled and didn't answer, but just motioned with his eyes to all the guards to search the calligraphy and painting shop and find the woman.Zhuang Qingxian didn't think much of this scene, until Wei Chiwen rudely pushed him away from the chair and stomped on the ground a few times, his face finally changed, and he watched the guards find the mechanism, open the secret door, and reveal a dark hole in the ground, before he showed a desperate expression."

The old man always thought that it wasn'...... like this" "You underestimate the determination of the Great Song Dynasty, since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the recovery of the sixteen states of Youyun has been the ultimate goal of every emperor and official, how can you really let it go."
