Chapter 334 Chapter 34 Chapter [-] The Elixir of Life
Not to mention whether this elixir of life is real or not, the dying emperor heard about this elixir, even if it is a dead horse, he wants to be a living horse doctor. It is better to have hope than to wait for death!
The Zhao family is one of the eight great families in the martial arts world, so they won't lie casually.Moreover, the Zhao family served as imperial guards all year round, protecting the emperor's safety and deeply trusted by the royal family. Therefore, Zhu Di was more willing to believe that the elixir of life was real.

Zhu Di sent Zhao Lin over to take over, and Zhao Jialong's powerful escort agency intimidated the world. This time, everyone was dispatched to escort the elixir of life. No one in the world dared to provoke him.

"Your Majesty, since you are escorted by the Zhao family, why did you ask me to come?" Chen Feng was a little puzzled.

Zhu Di shook his head: "Although I believe in the Zhao family, I have been uneasy in the past few days. I always feel that the elixir of life cannot be delivered to the capital so easily. The Zhao family must be secretly escorting them. I don't even know their whereabouts. I sent Dongchang and Jinyiwei The people in Mingtang and Mingtang were worried, so they brought you here."

"I... I don't have any skills!" Chen Feng said with a bitter face.

Zhu Di looked unhappy: "Although I am surprised by your growth, you don't have to be humble. With your strength, you can definitely walk in the world at will. Although I am assured of the strength of the Zhao family, I am afraid that they will be misled by someone with good intentions, especially It's Zhao Lin who's a lump in the elm wood. There's no guarantee that he won't fall into the trap and cause the elixir of life to suddenly change. You are highly skilled in martial arts and smart, so I can rest assured that you can take care of it."

As he spoke, he took out an imperial decree that was one size smaller. Although it was small, the content was clearly written, and it was to let Chen Feng take full responsibility for the delivery of the elixir of life.

"Your Majesty, you're throwing the blame on me!" Chen Feng complained.

"What did you say?" Zhu Di didn't understand.

"You asked me to be responsible for delivering the elixir of life. I'm under a lot of pressure. In case something happens to the elixir of life..."

"I won't blame you if there is an accident!" Zhu Di comforted earnestly, "All I can do is arrange manpower. If the elixir of life cannot reach me, it may be God's will."

It sounds like Zhu Di is very thoughtful, but he doesn't know if he can still be so calm after the accident.

Anyway, it is impossible for Chen Feng not to accept the imperial decree, but he has to make sure in case: "Your Majesty, can I ask some experts to help me."

"Who do you want to invite?"

"Lu Shigeng, commander of Jinyiwei, Zhugezheng, Mingtang Mingshuai, Sanbao eunuch Zheng He, Dongchang Changgong Huang Yan..."

"Don't talk about it, I can only let Sanbao go with you!" Zhu Di said his bottom line.

Chen Feng never thought about letting the strongest members of the imperial court go with him, and it would be very good to have Zheng He go with him.

"Then I'll go back and prepare, and then rush to Guangzhou immediately to meet the Zhao family's team as soon as possible!" Chen Feng took the order and left.

But Zhu Di stopped him: "Wait a minute, you are not allowed to mention the matter of the elixir to anyone, including Triple Treasure. You let Triple Treasure come in first, and I will tell him a few words."

After Zheng He came in, Zhu Di immediately ordered him to accompany Chen Feng out of Beijing, and obey Chen Feng's command in everything.Although he didn't say the real purpose, Zheng He will definitely guess something in the end, but when he guesses, he won't have a chance to vent to anyone.

Although Zheng He would not have leaked the matter, Zhu Di still kept it a secret from him. It can be seen that the old emperor did not trust Zheng He very much, at least in this period, there is no trust at all.

Chen Feng said goodbye to Zheng He and left. Zheng He had nothing to prepare, so he simply followed Chen Feng to the inn.

Zheng He didn't ask any questions along the way. He has been by Zhu Di's side for so many years, and he knows very well not to ask what shouldn't be asked.Seeing his dull expression, maybe it was because Zhu Di didn't trust him, which made him a little sad.

Back at the inn, Chen Feng immediately explained to everyone, and of course he didn't reveal anything about the elixir of life, he only said that he was going to the south of the Yangtze River according to a secret decree.

Xi Hongfeng will not leave the inn for a short time, and Chen Feng can feel at ease with him.

After making some preparations, Chen Feng and Zheng He set off before noon with the Qingzhi sword and a bundle.

This mission is not easy, the biggest problem is to find traces of the Zhao family.The Zhao family was already on their way, and because they were transporting the elixir of life, they must have tried every means to protect it.

There are many ways to carry darts in the Escort Bureau, and some people even hide their names and mix into the crowd, so that people don't know that you are carrying darts, so this will make it very difficult for Chen Feng to find.

Let's go all the way south first, counting the time, no matter how fast the Zhao family's people are, they must not have left the south of the Yangtze River at this moment.

Chen Feng and Zheng He first rushed to Xuzhou at the fastest speed, mainly using canals and waterways. It took them two days to arrive in Xuzhou.From here, it is necessary to explore along the road.

First enter Xuzhou City to rest and recuperate, and meet people from the Beggar Gang by the way.Chen Feng was rumored to be Lu Daoling's proud disciple by outsiders, and members of the Beggar Clan naturally regarded him as one of their own.Although Chen Feng had met very few disciples of the Beggars' Clan, everyone in the entire Beggars' Clan knew him.

The two of Chen Feng found a chic inn called Shuixie Zhai, the cost was really high, but it didn't matter, Chen Feng withdrew a lot of gold and silver from Zhu Di before leaving, it was not for nothing.To get the elixir of life, Zhu Di was even willing to donate all the gold and silver from the treasury.Money can be earned through taxes, but there is only one life!

However, in addition to the cost, there are still some conditions to be met for entering the water pavilion.There are only two kinds of people who can enter the Shuixie Zhai, one is the famous literati, and the other is the knight-errant who knows martial arts.

Of course, Shuixiezhai will let you in just because you say who you are.

If you are a literati, then you have to answer the examination questions of Shuixie Zhai, and you can only enter if you answer correctly.If you are a knight of the rivers and lakes, then you have to pass the test of the bodyguards of Shuixiezhai, and only by defeating the bodyguards can you prove that you have martial arts.

This rule is really interesting, Chen Feng naturally moved in as a knight-errant, those bodyguards are no match for him and Zheng He.

Entering the Shuixie Zhai, there are not many guests, they are all literati and scholars, there are only a few knight-errants, but it is a clean place.

There is a man-made water spring in the middle, and the tables and chairs in the lobby are all around the water spring.What's more unique is that there is a platform above the water spring, which is just enough for one person to sit down. At this moment, there is a slim woman playing the piano and singing.

It was time for dinner now. Chen Feng booked a guest room first, and then ate in the lobby while listening to the beautiful singing.

Although he had a mission, but in such a quiet and elegant place, Chen Feng also forgot a lot of troubles, he hadn't finished his dinner for half an hour.

It's not just Chen Feng, but everyone else is the same. The beauty on the spring doesn't rest, and everyone is reluctant to leave.

It was impossible for the singer to continue singing, and she persisted for half an hour. When the sound of the piano ended, she got up and saluted to show that the performance was over, and the people around her naturally applauded.

Chen Feng also applauded, but he still had another focus, which was how the singer left the spring.

The next moment he knew it, he saw a piece of red silk falling downstairs. The singer grabbed the red silk and pulled it to the second floor.

Originally thought it was over like this, Chen Feng and Zheng He were also going to go to the guest room to rest, but just stood up from their seats, only to find that the literati around them didn't move, instead they looked expectant.This is not over yet, there is also a commotion outside Shuixie Zhai, and many scholars and knights spend money to come in, not for food, it seems that they just want to occupy a place to watch the upcoming exciting.

More and more people were unable to enter the Shuixie Zhai due to their inconsistent status. Of course, the Shuixie Zhai was also becoming saturated, and they were all shouting outside to join in the fun.

The last time Chen Feng saw such a spectacle was in the Yuexian Tower in Xiangyang City.

Is there any other important event?Chen Feng beckoned Zheng He to sit down again, wanting to see what tricks this Shuixie Zhai had.

A rich middle-aged man like the host came out and gave a loud speech: "The moment everyone is most looking forward to is finally here. The Moon Fairy who is famous in the south of the Yangtze River is visiting Shuixie Zhai today. People in Xuzhou City can finally see the Moon Fairy." So beautiful!"

"Moon Immortal!" Chen Feng stood up excitedly, because when he heard the name Yue Immortal, he first thought of Murong Miaoyue.

The rich middle-aged man glanced at Chen Feng and said with a straight face: "Young hero, don't be anxious. Everyone knows Yuexian's temper. We must stay calm, otherwise Yuexian will not come out to meet us!"...
