Chapter 13 - I'm almost dead

On the car.

Mom, I'm sorry for making you feel wronged today, "Chen Rui said

What are you talking about, silly child? "Qian Jinglan said," You've encountered so many things in the hospital, yet you're hiding them from me. If you hadn't gone to the hospital today, how long would you have been hiding them from me

I just don't want you to worry

Listen to Mom's advice, don't hold on. If the hospital can't survive, then switch to another hospital. As for Li Shaofen, she has changed and is no longer the kind girl she used to be. It's okay to split up

Hmm

Mr. Zhao must have something important to discuss with you, so I won't delay you. I'll get off at the front

After the car stopped, Chen Rui helped Qian Jinglan get off the car.

Mr. Zhao, I'm sorry to trouble you today, "Qian Jinglan said politely.

Auntie, there's no need to be polite, it's just a small matter. "Zhao Yun was also very polite.

Qian Jinglan also told Chen Rui, "Come back early. I'll wait for you to come home for dinner. Today, Mom will make you your favorite Mapo tofu."

Got it

After starting the car, Chen Rui said awkwardly, "My mom is just like that, she's a bit verbose. I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao, for making you laugh

It's pretty good

Is it good?

Chen Rui glanced at Zhao Yun with confusion.

The latter remained silent and focused on driving.

All the way silent.

The atmosphere inside the car is somewhat oppressive.

Chen Rui hesitated to speak several times.

After a full twenty minutes, Zhao Yun suddenly spoke up, "Dr. Ye, I'm sure you have a lot of doubts in your heart, right

Yes, "Chen Rui did not deny.

Just ask whatever you want, I will tell you anything I can

Who is the Dragon King? "Chen Rui asked.

This question has been holding him back all the way.

The Dragon King is the king of the underground world in Jiangzhou! He was once a master of the Tiger List! "Zhao Yun continued," Actually, you have already met the Dragon King

Is that the Tang costume old man who was with you yesterday? "Chen Rui asked.

Yes, that's right

It's indeed him!

When Chen Rui saw the old man in Tang costume yesterday, he felt that he didn't look like an ordinary person. Now it seems that his guess is correct.

Is the Dragon King his real name? "Chen Rui asked again.

No, it's just a title, "Zhao Yun said." The real name of the Dragon King is Long Qianqiu, and he is called the Dragon King in the rivers and lakes

i see.

May I ask, Mr. Zhao, what is your relationship with the Dragon King? "Chen Rui was somewhat curious about Zhao Yun's identity.

I am the personal bodyguard of the Dragon King

So you must be very skilled in Kung Fu, right

Zhao Yun smiled but did not answer.

The car drove into the city center area and then entered a secluded mountain road. Chen Rui glanced outside the car window and asked, "Are we going to Yunwu Mountain

Well, the Dragon King lives on Yunwu Mountain

Chen Rui was shocked.

In the center of Jiangzhou city, there is a mountain peak with an altitude of 500 meters called Yunwu Mountain. The scenery here is pleasant and the environment is beautiful.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, this was a park, but later it was developed into a top tier wealthy district, where only the top elites in Jiangzhou were eligible to live in Yunwu Mountain.

Fifteen minutes later.

Exquisite villas with Chinese style appeared in Chen Rui's sight, scattered among the lush trees, peaceful and distant.

The car kept driving towards the highest peak and finally stopped in front of an antique villa.

Dr. Ye, we've arrived, "Zhao Yun said.

Chen Rui nodded and got off the car to see four guards standing at the entrance of the villa, each with a muscular physique and sharp eyes.

The aura of these four guards is very similar to that of Zhao Yun, but their aura is much weaker than Zhao Yun's.

Zhao Ge

Seeing Zhao Yun, the four guards respectfully shouted.

This is Chen Rui, a guest invited by the Dragon King, "Zhao Yun pointed to Chen Rui.

The four guards glanced at Chen Rui and quickly stepped aside.

Dr. Ye, please follow me, "Zhao Yun led the way ahead.

Chen Rui stepped into the gate and a courtyard covering several hundred square meters appeared in sight. Inside, there were pavilions, water pavilions, fish ponds, rockeries, and various exotic flowers and grasses planted, giving it a somewhat summer resort like atmosphere.

In the middle of the courtyard, there is a sturdy wutong tree, at least a hundred years old, with luxuriant branches and leaves.

Under the tree, there is a stone table.

The stone table is covered with rice paper.

The Dragon King is practicing calligraphy.

When the Dragon King is practicing calligraphy, he doesn't like to be disturbed by others. Please be gentle with your steps, "Zhao Yun whispered as a reminder.

Chen Rui nodded.

The two of them walked up to the Dragon King, and Chen Rui looked up and saw a few words written on the rice paper:

To accomplish the affairs of the king and the world, and to gain fame both before and after his death. It's a pity that it happened for nothing

The pen moves like a dragon and snake, penetrating through the back of the paper. Between the strokes of the pen and ink, there is an unstoppable killing spirit that leaps onto the paper.

The characters are good, but unfortunately

Chen Rui suddenly spoke up.

What's a pity? "The Dragon King asked calmly.

Unfortunately, the killing intent was too strong

Snap!

The Dragon King dropped the brush in his hand, looked up, and his gaze fell on Chen Rui.

moment

Chen Rui felt like he was being stared at by a peerless ferocious beast, and his hair stood on end.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Yun quickly said, "Chen Rui, why don't you apologize to the Dragon King

Do you also understand calligraphy? "Dragon King asked before Chen Rui could apologize.

I have some knowledge

In the inheritance of the Ye family's ancestors, there is a lot of knowledge about calligraphy.

Did you just say that the killing intent was too strong? Did you think that my state of mind when writing was wrong? "The Dragon King asked again.

Chen Rui had no choice but to grit his head and say, "The author of this poem is Xin Qiji. He was a famous Southern Song anti Jin general who strongly advocated for the recovery of the Central Plains throughout his life, but was rejected and discouraged. He was unable to be employed for a long time and lived idle for nearly twenty years

This poem was written by Xin Qiji when he was unemployed in Xinzhou

He expressed his strong aspirations of killing enemies to serve the country and establish fame in his words. However, a pitiful sentence happened, expressing the frustration, pain, and anger that Xin Qiji had no way to serve the country and was difficult to express

And the words you wrote, with silver strokes and iron hooks, are full of killing intent, which is completely opposite to the poet's mood. However, they are full of a spirit that swallows thousands of miles like a tiger. This reminds me of a poem by Cao Cao: "The old steed hides in the haystack, with aspirations for a thousand miles, the martyr is old and full of ambition

The Dragon King stared at Chen Rui with a deep gaze, not saying a word, but the immense aura still lingered on his body.

Chen Rui was extremely nervous, with cold sweat oozing from his forehead.

After two minutes, the Dragon King suddenly burst out laughing and said, "Chen Rui, you're really good

Upon hearing these words, Chen Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, the Dragon King kindly asked, "Chen Rui, did I disturb your work when I asked Zhao Yun to invite you

No

That's good. "The Dragon King put away his smile and said solemnly," Chen Rui, please come over. There's something I want to ask for your help with

What's up? "Chen Rui asked.

I would like to ask you to help me treat my illness, "said the Dragon King," I am dying
