Seeking Longevity by the River of Forgetfulness

"Tick tock", "tick tock", the continuous rain in the south of the Yangtze River fell under the eaves.

"I told you to bring an umbrella, but you are disobedient. Quickly change into clean clothes." Frowning, Xue Shi pulled Long Bie Yi, who was soaked all over, into the room, and hastily dried his hair with a cotton towel.

The water on Long Bieyi's body fell drop by drop on the floor, but he didn't care, and smiled happily like a flower: "Xiao Xue, I found you the best birthday present."

Xue Shi sighed: "You cherish yourself is the best birthday gift for me."

Long Bieyi didn't argue, but was secretly delighted.He spent a lot of trouble and searched everywhere, and finally found an alchemist, who was famous far and wide, and had a wonderful hand to rejuvenate.The alchemist claimed that he could cure Xue Shi's fear of heat.

A few days later, Long Bieyi quietly invited him to the palace.That alchemist student is a good-looking talent, and he speaks neither too fast nor too slow, and is quite authoritative.He said: "Your Majesty, according to your description, I do have a prescription to cure your nobleman's illness."

Long Bieyi's eyes lit up, and he said, "Sir, please enlighten me!"

The alchemist looked hesitant: "It's just... this prescription requires a blind introduction."

Long Bieyi: "But it doesn't matter, I can find all kinds of rare medicinal materials."

The alchemist hesitated to speak, but after a while he seemed to have made up his mind, knelt down on the ground, and said, "Your Majesty's blood is needed as medicine!"

Long Bieyi became vigilant and frowned: "I tell you, if there is any falsehood in your words, it will be a crime against the nine clans."

Yuman comforted him from the side: "Your Majesty, you can rest assured that this gentleman is indeed a miraculous doctor of rejuvenation. The servant has used decades of contacts to invite him, and there is absolutely no falsehood."

The alchemist answered: "I am not talented, but I dare to promise you that the medicine will cure the disease with my life, and even..." He lowered his voice, "It also has the effect of longevity."

Long Bieyi sneered: "Throughout the ages, countless people have sought immortality but failed. How can this king be able to, a few drops of blood can make people ascend to heaven?"

The alchemist kowtowed heavily, and said: "Your Majesty, the nobleman's illness can't be delayed any longer! Although it seems to be getting better now, it will definitely get worse within three years! You have to think long-term!"

Seeing the wind, Yuman turned the steering wheel and said: "You quack doctor! Your majesty is a real dragon emperor, and his body is delicate and fleshy, how can you take blood? Besides, your majesty may not favor Master Xue Shi for three years..."

"Bastard!" Long Bieyi smashed the water glass to the ground, "I want to grow old with him forever!"

Yuman knelt down, lowered his head and slapped himself loudly: "Your Majesty, think twice..."

Long Bieyi calmed down, and said: "Let's do it this way, take a knife and a bowl, and I will take blood immediately."

"Tick tock", "tick tock"...

With the knife in hand, blood gushed out intermittently from the wrist, dripping into the silver bowl.When the small silver bowl was filled with blood, Long Bieyi was already sweating from the pain, and his face was pale.

Yuman took the bowl, and the alchemist pinched Long Bieyi's wrist courteously and said, after stroking the wound a few times, he bandaged him.

That night, Long Bieyi gave Xue Shi a bowl of medicine, saying it was a tonic.Xue Shi was thinking crookedly, his ears were red, and he drank it all in one gulp.But Long Bieyi's complexion was really bad, and he fell into a deep sleep as soon as he touched the pillow.Xue Shi helped him close the quilt without thinking too much.

-------------------------------

From that night, Long Bieyi had nightmares again and again. Sometimes he dreamed that his mother was seriously ill, and sometimes he dreamed about his father's funeral. He even dreamed that the ministers angrily called him a fool, and the rebels besieged the city and forced him to behead him for public display. He didn't go back and left him.

He began to lose his appetite, couldn't sleep at night, and lost weight rapidly.Xue Shi was so anxious that he tried every means to comfort him, but no matter how he coaxed him, he lost his appetite to eat, so he could barely close his eyes in Xue Shi's arms.

Xue Shi summoned the imperial physicians, but the imperial physicians were at a loss what to do, they only prescribed some calming prescriptions and asked Long Bieyi to take care of him.

From Long Bieyi's hallucinations, everything went downhill.On Long Bie Yi's 20th birthday, he suddenly pulled out the "Northwest" and stabbed Long Bie Xun, yelling viciously, "You traitor, you actually poisoned me!"

Everyone hurriedly pulled Long Bieyi back, Long Bieyi said with a pale face, "I just want to toast you and give you a birthday gift."

Long Bieyi turned a deaf ear to it, his eyes were red with hatred.Hearing this, Xue Shi rushed to hug him back, but Long Bieyi was agitated, and when Xue Shi hugged him, he bit him hard on the shoulder.

Xue Shi was in pain, but he patted his head soothingly.

But Long Bieyi burst into tears: "You don't want me anymore..."

Xue Shi: "How could it be?"

Long Bieyi looked at Jingzhe with tearful eyes, "I don't know if it was my dream or it was real...you just don't want me..."

"It's a dream, it's a dream..." Xue Shi kissed the corner of his lips, "I'm sorry, I didn't hold you tight and made you have a nightmare."

------------------------------

It is rumored in the palace that His Majesty has gone crazy.They often heard hoarse cries coming from the Hall of Eternal Life.Above the court, Long Bie Yi Hun does not guard his house, and is extremely irritable and irritable, killing people at every turn, so that the officials dare not speak too much.

One day in October, when Long Biezhen reported the military situation in the morning, Long Bieyi suddenly said coldly: "Stop pretending here, when are you going to rebel and force the palace?"

Long Biezhen was impatient, and retorted: "Who are you going to show His Majesty's crazy appearance? Is the military salary in the Northeast in place? Has the maritime affairs in the Southwest been paid attention to? Is this a fear of difficulty?"

Long Bieyi's eyes were bloodshot, and he stepped down from the throne, drew out his sword and slashed straight at Long Biexuan!But Long Biexuan stood upright like a pine, without dodging, and received the sword abruptly on his shoulder!

Blood flowed, and Long Bieyi was awakened by the shocking redness, dropped the sword, took a step back, and said in a trembling voice: "Back... Back to court." Then he hurried out of the palace without waiting for the palace guards to escort him. .

Xue Shi approached Zijin for a discussion, Zijin felt Long Bieyi's pulse while he was asleep, and shook his head: "Forgive me from the Ten Palaces, although my family has been wrongly praised as a Nanyang doctor, but I can't diagnose your majesty's condition."

Xue Shi looked solemn: "Why did he become like this for no reason?"

Zijin thought for a moment, and said: "I have a guess, but I'm not sure. Your Majesty may have been hit by a blood gu."

Xue Shi: "Blood Gu?"

Zijin: "Blood Gu is a kind of demonic Gu from the Western Regions. It is extremely vicious. It is planted in the blood of a person, nourished by blood, devours meridians, and disturbs people's mind."

Xue Shi: "Is there a cure?"

Zijin shook her head heavily: "No, you will definitely die within [-] days after being hit by the blood gu, and the death is extremely tragic, with bleeding from the seven orifices, and rotten internal organs, making people feel so painful..." She couldn't continue, she gritted her teeth, "The ten palaces are also dead. Don't worry, the blood gu has to be implanted from the artery, it is very difficult, so the probability of being hit by the gu is extremely small."

Xue Shi's face was stagnant, and his eyes were dim: "How can I confirm that I've been hit by a blood gu?"

Zijin: "One month before his death, he would vomit a lot of blood and have a violent temper."

A prophecy.

On the New Year's Eve of 96 BC in the Jiankang calendar, the usually bustling banquet hall in the palace was deserted. The officials were absent-minded in greeting and dining, and the young king who was supposed to entertain the officials in the main seat disappeared.His Royal Highness Rong raised his glass and toasted with a smile on his face, but everyone still bowed their heads in silence.General Luo was absent, and several military officials were absent.Everyone tacitly agreed that this period of Shuling Kingdom, which has only experienced three generations of kings, is afraid that the sky will change.

In the Hall of Eternal Life, Xue Shi managed to coax Long Bieyi into drinking a bowl of medicine for calming the mind and mind, and fell asleep with him in his arms.

Long Bieyi was always groggy, but suddenly raised his face to look at Xue Shi, his eyes were as deep as obsidian, and asked, "Xiao Xue, am I dying soon?"

Xue Shiqiang endured the pain in his heart, and calmly said: "False words, you will be safe."

A faint smile emerged from the corner of Long Bieyi's mouth: "I'm not afraid of death, but I beg you to live forever and live a hundred years without any worries. If I die, you will take all the treasures with you and go far away, the King Rong can't do anything to you."

Xue Shi: "Nonsense, you won't die."

Long Bieyi was buried in Xue Shi's chest, his consciousness gradually lost: "How do you know..."

Hearing his even breathing, Xue Shicai slowly opened his mouth: "You are destined to live a hundred years. But you met me...and now I don't know..." As he spoke, he hugged Long Bieyi tightly, It seems that the next second will lose the sweetheart.

------------------------------

That year's Shangyuan Festival, Xue Shi went to the street to buy many lanterns and came back, which made Long Bieyi's eyes shine.

Xue Shi put all the lanterns on the ground, lit candles, and the Hall of Eternal Life was illuminated brightly.

Long Bieyi held up an auspicious dragon lantern and said, "This is me, I am a dragon."

Xue Shi picked up a rabbit lamp and said, "This is you."

Long Bieyi took the pink rabbit lamp with a smile, couldn't put it down, and said: "Liar, you clearly said that I am a milk cat. But the rabbit is also good, pink, soft, and cute."

In the warm yellow candlelight, Long Bieyi's face was gentle and handsome, his expression was quiet and gentle, like a poem and picturesque, revealing a strong warmth.Xue Shiding stared at it with sore eyes.

Suddenly the candlelight was extinguished, and Long Bieyi suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood.There was another burst of chaos, and the world was turned upside down.Long Bieyi saw Xue Dada's face paled with shock, shouted indistinctly, and fell into the dark abyss.

Half a month after waking up again, Long Bieyi was lying on the bed, listening to King Rong's report on the life and death situation of the rebel army besieging the city and the soldiers approaching the city.His eyes were lifeless, and he was only thinking about one thought: I am the king of subjugation, and I will not be able to enter the Tomb of Heroes.

Long Biezhen was dressed in military uniform, knelt down on one knee, and said: "I will destroy the rebels, and I will defend Shu Ling to the death, so as to protect Your Majesty!"

Long Bieyi didn't answer, but looking at Long Bieyi's back going away, he could vaguely see a small figure that was always chasing behind him back then.

Did he really take on the responsibility of being an elder brother and take good care of him?Over the years, have I greeted him even once?

Long Bieyi always felt that his younger brother hated and despised him, but in the end he was the one who supported the country with his solid shoulders and protected him with his tired body.

Thinking of the harsh words and hurtful words before, and the confrontation of swords and swords, a line of tears rolled down the corner of Long Bieyi's eyes.

Long Bieyi held Xue Shi's hand who was standing aside, and said reverently, "I beg you to be fine."
