Tao Yuanming's face changed slightly and he remained silent, while Yu Yue on the side exclaimed: "Treasure? White Tiger's treasure? What does this mean? Ah, I remembered that White Tiger King Xun once entrusted Tao Gong with , let him reorganize the Black Hand Universe, and Tao Gong handed over the power to reorganize the Black Hand Universe to Liu Yi, right? "

Tao Yuanming said coldly: "Everyone in the world knows this, so why ask? However, I can also make it clear that I have never received any treasures from the White Tiger, not even Wang Xun himself. If I had , how could he die in the hands of Yin Zhongkan so easily? The treasures of the Baihu family had been taken away by Huan Wen a long time ago. It was only because of those weapons and food that Huan Wen was able to dominate Jingzhou. Wang Xun took over the position of Bai Hu. At that time, he was already a bare guard, so he could only stay in Jiankang and accomplish nothing. "

At this point, Tao Yuanming paused: "However, Brother Mu's prediction was good. Xu Daofu really believed that I still had the treasures of the White Tiger series in my hands, but I just didn't want to take them out. He thought I had stolen the White Tiger." He only wanted to recruit troops when the time was right. No matter how I explained, he didn't believe it. Even later, he got a little angry and asked me to think carefully. If I really don't have these treasures, then that's it. It has no value to them and he can no longer guarantee my life."

"When it comes to this matter, I have no way out. I can only tell him that I, Tao Yuanming, do not join Liu Yu's shogunate because I do not agree with his ideas of letting the people at the bottom stand up and be on an equal footing with the gentry. But this does not mean It means that I am willing to join the Black Hand Universe. This aristocratic organization, dominated by the Wu Di family, is extremely xenophobic and jealous of the virtuous. At that time, our ancestor Kan Gong made great achievements, but was replaced by the Yu family. Our Tao family has been unknown for hundreds of years. , are all the good deeds of this black hand Qiankun. For their own selfish interests, they can harm the country, frame Zhongliang, and cause chaos in the world. This is something that the conscience of our generation cannot allow. "

"So although I have a teacher-student relationship with Wang Xun, in order to repay his kindness, I help him rebuild the Black Hand Universe and hand it over to the successors he deems suitable. This is enough. I am a scholar who cannot lead troops or fight. , I can only write poems and poems, and use my pen as a spear to fight against this dark world and those hypocritical people in power, to awaken the sleeping people of the country. Speaking of treasures, this is the greatest treasure of me, Tao Yuanming."

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "That's so good. Even I am moved. Xu Daofu must also convince you. If a treasured public intellectual like you really harms your life, he will give Everyone in the world despises you, so he must have withdrawn his murderous intention and once again persuaded you to change your mind and cooperate with them. "

Tao Yuanming nodded: "Everything is as you expected. Xu Daofu put on a smile and began to apologize to me again, saying that all this was just a joke, and he asked me not to take it seriously. He also said that it was originally He wanted me to go back to Jiankang to spread some words for them, but now it seems that doing so will give Liu Yu an excuse and crime to kill me. He can never accept such a result, so for my own good , he will take me back to Jingzhou and release me there, so that I can return to the mountains, or I can choose to live in seclusion in the mountains or return to the Jin Dynasty's court. "

Yu Yue sneered and said: "That's nonsense. I kidnapped you from Jiankang, then went with them, and finally appeared in Jingzhou. Even if you were just talking, you can't explain it clearly. Xu Daofu is doing harm." You.”

Tao Yuanming sighed: "Man is a swordsman, and I am a fish. Knowing this, what else can I do? Do you really want Xu Daofu to send me back? I'm afraid he will kill me on the spot, so I could only remain noncommittal at that time. I neither agreed nor objected, leaving no clue for Xu Daofu, and Xu Daofu also said that he would immediately go back to attack Jingzhou. Once captured, he hoped to use my reputation in Jingzhou to win over the nobles. , if I find some clues to the treasure left by the white tiger, he will help me get it out and help me succeed. "

"I didn't agree to any of these things. I just said that I haven't returned to my hometown for a long time. If I have the chance, I would like to go back to worship my ancestors. As for the scholar's heart in Jingzhou, I can't get it as a scholar. Do I have the support of the scholars? , It depends on what Tianshi Dao has done. The most valuable thing about me in this world is my pride and integrity. If these are gone, then the so-called treasure will be gone. "

Liu Muzhi said calmly: "Your words are quite accurate. If Xu Daofu wants to take a long-term approach to catch big fish, he will keep you first to see the subsequent development. So, Xu Daofu will take you with him like this." Did he bring you seriously injured all the way to Jingzhou like this? "

Tao Yuanming curled up his lips: "The demon thief has a lot of miraculous medicines, especially for treating sword wounds. I used their medicine and I almost recovered in less than ten days. I can walk freely. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan .ccom This is indeed the unique skill of the demon thieves. No wonder they have been defeated by the army many times and suffered heavy casualties, but they can always regain their strength, because these wound medicines can allow the seriously injured to recover quickly and fight again. Brother Mu, If you have the chance to eliminate the demon thief in the future, you must find these prescriptions."

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "These are things for later. What I am more concerned about now is how you, Mr. Tao, escaped from Xu Daofu's control and escaped on the battlefield."

Tao Yuanming said seriously: "To be precise, I did not escape on the battlefield. Xu Daofu placed me on his ship, the Oriental Pearl. It was a hidden dragon warship. This was my first time. Entering this kind of warship that can sail underwater, I didn’t leave the warship until he conquered Wulindu. When we got to the ferry, he wanted to take me to the battlefield, but I excused myself because I was seriously injured. He recovered and lurked under the water for several days. It was very uncomfortable. He thought twice before placing me in the ferry. "

"Unexpectedly, in the Battle of Horse Head, the demon bandits were defeated. The defenders in the ferry were also panicked. Many bandits simply gave up the ferry and boarded the boats to escape. The remaining troops intervened to stop them. There was a melee between the two sides at night. , and I took advantage of the chaos and escaped before Xu Daofu returned to Wulin Ferry. "

Liu Muzhi frowned: "Can you escape by yourself?"

Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Jingzhou is my hometown, and Wulindu is a ferry I often travel to. I am very familiar with the situation in this area. In normal times, I would be under strict guard. It would be difficult to leave, but in this situation In the melee that night, the guards had no time to take care of themselves and even started fighting among themselves. I took advantage of the dark moon and high wind to escape by jumping out of the window and hiding in the nearby grass swamp and wild ferry for three or four days until I heard the fishermen coming and going. I won’t dare to come out until the battle is over.” (End of Chapter)
