Chapter 1: Well, Book of War

 Huo Qubing stared at the ancient well in front of him.

This is a quite exquisite stone well. The outer circle of the well is square, and the well mouth is round. The internal depth is unknown, and the side length is about ten feet.

The wellhead is made of bluestone, which is full of primitive simplicity.

There is a cold halo faintly emitting from the well, which is quite mysterious.

Huo Qubing suspected that the well was his plug-in, but he had no evidence.

He wanted to get close to the top of the well to see what was going on inside, but he never succeeded.

Because he was in a 'dream' at this time, his thoughts were not completely under control, and there seemed to be a force in the well preventing him from approaching.

Just when he had the idea of ​​being in a dream, an inexplicable force struck him, dragging him out of the dream and back to reality.

"Here we go again, this well appears in my dream once a day for half a month..."

The next moment, Huo Qubing opened his eyes, ending his deep sleep, and the ancient well in his consciousness disappeared.

And at the moment when he exited the dream, he still felt the energy pouring out from the spiritual platform and flowing throughout his body. Finally, it reunited in the depths of his consciousness and turned into wisps of halo. After blending, it formed a simple style.

Short book:

"There are numbers in the art, the principles of yin and yang, and the opportunities are there. The opportunities cannot be set, and if you set them up, you will miss."

When the simple book was unfolded a little, there appeared handwriting that looked like seal script, or like the ancient inscriptions of the Six Kingdoms in the Spring and Autumn Period. The faint light faded.

The ancient well appeared for several days, and every time Qi came out and dispersed into his body, pushing him to become more and more powerful. However, this was the first time that the ancient bamboo scrolls were transformed into his consciousness.

The form of the simple book is clear, and you can visualize it as long as you calm down your mind and focus your awareness.

"The ancient well in the dream has the power to keep sending out messages. Is the real purpose to manifest this simple book?"

Huo Qubing thought: There is something in the art, the coordination of yin and yang... It looks like the contents of a military book!

When he tried to visualize the bottom of the slips of the Consciousness Sea, he suddenly discovered that the ancient well had changed again. Five breaths rose up and fell into the slips one after another. Each breath occupied one slip, and the imprint turned into five patterns.<

/p>

Within one of the breaths, there seemed to be a winged flying snake pattern.

The other four auras are extremely hazy, and the specific forms cannot be seen clearly.

The next moment, the simple book scrolled and closed, covering the contents of the book and losing its trace from the sea of ​​consciousness.

Huo Qubing was in a sleeping hall and had just woken up from the couch.

There is a long wooden table next to the couch, and an oval bronze lamp is placed on the table. The lamp trough below is about the size of a fist, which can be used to store lamp oil. When you take out the lamp oil, you can light it on the decorated lampstand.

However, there was no lamp in the room at this time, and only the moonlight shone like water through the wooden rectangular window lattice.

On the other side of the couch, there is a tic-tac-toe wooden structure for hanging clothes.

Huo Qubing sat up from the couch, looking thoughtful.

He is the champion of the Han Dynasty who is famous throughout the ages and amazed the world!

Since his aunt Wei Zifu entered the palace, Liu Che, a great lord of the generation and later known as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, became his uncle. The Wei family flourished, and everyone's destiny changed. His uncle Wei Qing even defeated the Xiongnu in a row, and gradually

It became the central pillar of the dynasty.

Huo Qubing is seventeen this year and has not yet become famous.

The residence he currently resides in is located beside the Weiyang Palace in Chang'an. It is his family's residence.

Not long after he woke up, before he could carefully examine the changes in his consciousness, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

"Huo Shizhong." A voice sounded, deliberately lowering his voice and making it a little deep.

Shizhong refers specifically to the emperor's close ministers, especially during the period of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, their status was very high.

He always accompanied the emperor and was a valuable confidant. He could give his own opinions on all matters in the court, and he could be in charge of the emperor's cars, sedans, clothes, utensils, etc.

"Your Majesty's assignment has come to light." The voice outside the room said again.

Huo Qubing reached out and took out the clothes on the couch beside the couch.

Hanfu is mostly a dark garment. You need to put on the inner lining first, and then put on the outer garment that is connected from top to bottom and tied with a rope. The characteristic is that the body is hidden and not exposed, and it is graceful and elegant.

Huo Qubing quickly dressed and walked to the door.

This rare military genius in ancient and modern times has a heroic face and sharp eyes. At the age of seventeen, his figure is not yet burly, but his back is straight, giving people a sharp and sharp look.

"Let's go and take a look." Huo Qubing opened the door.

The person outside the door was bowing and waiting. He was a young general wearing armor.

At this time, a figure suddenly jumped down from the beam in the room and landed on the table nearby. It was a rather large 'cat'.

This cat has brown fur, a thick body and a short tail.

There are standing black tufts of hair on the tips of its ears and cheeks. Its body is light brown or hemp brown, its belly is light white, and its tail has black spots. It has jewel-like eyes, which makes it quite beautiful.

This is the spiritual beast raised by Huo Qubing. It looks like a cat, but is actually a lynx, a very ferocious beast given by the Emperor of Heaven.

The young general called Yao Zhao and turned around to lead the way.

The cat also wanted to go out for a walk, but as soon as its front legs went out, it heard Huo Qubing say: "You look after the house."

The big cat rolled its eyes, retracted its paws with a depressed look, jumped up to the beam with a sleight of hand, curled its tail, turned itself into a ball of fur, and opened its mouth to yawn.

The cold moon is like frost, and dawn is approaching.

There is a long street in the south of Chang'an City, with numerous buildings on both sides. Most of the people who live there are nobles from the imperial court, and they live in high-level courtyards, which is very impressive.

In the night, a brightly lit mansion was surrounded by more than a hundred people in black, and the atmosphere was solemn.

In a room in the backyard, a lotus-shaped bronze lampstand is lit with blazing lights, as bright as day.

There were seven or eight people in the room, and the atmosphere was depressing!

Behind a low mat in front, a middle-aged man sat, his eyes closed, not breathing, and he was actually dead.

The death of this man was bizarre. He remained seated with a calm expression, as if he was taking a nap before his death. There were no traces of injuries or struggles on his body.

The people in the room carefully inspected the body and concluded that the cause of death was...sleep to death, and no other abnormalities were found.

"This is the fourth case this month. The symptoms of the deceased are all the same, with no injuries or illnesses."

"Officer Liu who died this time was not only a relative of His Majesty, but also a lieutenant of the Northern Army. If we still can't find out the reason, the implication will be huge."

Lieutenant of the Northern Army, responsible for public security inspections and partial defense responsibilities. He belongs to the Forbidden Army system and ranks as the ninth minister.

An official of this level dies mysteriously, and the consequences can be imagined.

There are two people leading the room. One is wearing black clothes. He is around fifty. His nose is very wide in the middle, giving people a sculpture-like coldness. From the appearance, he is a person who is difficult to get close to.

Another person wears a hood, and even his face is covered in it, like a gauze curtain, and his face cannot be seen.

However, her figure is graceful, and she is probably a mature woman.

The emperor Liu Che has a secret guard under his command, which is like the emperor's eyes and ears. Among them are many strange people and strangers. This woman is one of the leaders of the secret guard. The other old man is one of the nine ministers, the Tingwei who is in charge of criminal law and can serve as an official in Qu's army.<

/p>

Northern Army Lieutenant Liu Huai died, and the two of them rushed over immediately.

They are all good investigators, and they have tried their best to find nothing of value.

When the two of them were frowning, footsteps came from outside the house, and two figures walked in one after the other.

The two leaders in the room both held high positions and knew the person who walked in first.

The man was wearing a large cloak and dark black clothes, and his young face looked very heroic.

When everyone saw him coming in, they folded their hands in unison, bowed forward, and saluted, "I've seen Huo Shizhong."

It was Huo Qubing who came. After he came in, he glanced at the body and sniffed the smell in the room quietly.

"What did you find?"

"We are conducting an investigation. The current information we have is that Chief Liu returned home at midnight last night and then entered the study. He specifically asked others not to disturb him.

The body was discovered by the waitress at midnight. We rushed over to check and initially determined that he had been dead for more than two hours and there were no injuries on his body."

The leading woman in the room who was wearing a scarf took off her scarf after Huo Qubing came in, revealing a face with a slightly pointed chin and fair skin:

"There have been four cases of mysterious deaths of courtiers this month."

"Through the previous three experiences, the deceased may have abnormal symptoms in the chest, abdomen or back about two hours after death."

Huo Qubing was looking at the layout of the room.

The area of ​​the room is about three feet vertically and horizontally. It is used for conducting official business and reading books. It has a flat stone floor, the door opens to the south, there are windows on the east and west sides, and a long sword hangs on the wall on the north side.
Under the wall is a low mat. Lieutenant Liu Huai of the Northern Army was sitting behind the low mat. He died inexplicably, and his face had a rigid and pale look unique to the dead.

Huo Qubing returned his gaze to the corpse: "Will there be changes two hours after death? So it's almost time to take off his clothes."

"Wei!"

Immediately, someone came forward and untied the robe from the chest, front and back of the body.

The atmosphere is surprisingly quiet.

Not long after the clothes on the corpse were taken off, changes appeared on the chest and back.

First there was a faint black air, and then there was something like hair, which grew rapidly from the chest to the back and became extremely thick within a few breaths.

New hair grows on a corpse!

The hair is entangled, and it seems to have formed characters. On the chest it looks like "Han Dynasty died", and on the back it says "Emperor collapsed"!

The hair strands that make up the handwriting squirm like snakes and insects, which makes people feel horrified.

Huo Qubing squatted down next to the corpse.

Suddenly, the corpse actually opened its eyes, revealing dilated pupils, staring straight at him.

Dead man opens his eyes?!
