Chapter fifty-ninth: worship the virtuous
Xi Zhicai did not appear in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but there were very short records in Chen Shou's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
Although the records are short, they have high evaluations.
Xi Zhicai died early, and Cao Cao once said to Xun Yu: "After the demise of Zhi Cai, no one can do anything to do with him!" This shows Cao Cao's evaluation of Xi Zhi's ability and ability.
However, Guan Yan only had a little impression of Xi Zhi. He still didn't understand that the sick middle-aged man in front of him was a genius!
Guan Yan's face changed slightly, and he returned to normal: "Let's watch, Mr. Xi."
As he said that, Guan Yan walked to Xi Zhicai and stretched out his fingers toward the teacup on the table. Then Guan Yan closed his eyes and concentrated his mind, and his true energy swam to his fingertips in a slight sense.
The surface of the tea gradually showed some fine lines, and the fine lines gradually became bigger and more intense.
Finally, a trace of tea was pulled out of the tea cup like a thin thread. Slowly, multiple tea threads gathered into a stream, and moved with the movement of Guan Yan's fingers.
Some time ago, Guan Yan performed this part for Chen Deng to show him. At that time, Chen Deng was sleepy and thought that Guan Yan had used some tricks, but he didn't take it seriously. Now, he really watched Guan Yanguan magically scatter the flowing water, and he couldn't help but feel very surprised.
Xi Zhicai stared at the flowing water like a snake in a daze, and then asked softly after a moment, "What sir means..."
"I can drive away water and purify my lungs! But I have never used this method yet. If Mr. Xi is not afraid, I can try it." Guan Yan put away his true energy at his fingertips, took a deep breath and said to Xi Zhicai.
Xi Zhicai thought for a moment, and his turbid eyes gradually became firm: "If you die, I will bother you."
Guan Yan nodded: "No need to delay, get ready."
The things prepared are very simple. The main thing is to boil a basin and disinfect it, then dry it in warm water. Another large empty basin is prepared and placed aside.
Xi Zhicai was lying on the bed, Guan Yan sat upright and asked softly: "Mr. Xi is ready?"
Xi Zhicai nodded, closed his eyes slightly, and opened his mouth.
Guan Yan condensed the air at his fingertips again, and a stream of light formed on the warm water in the basin and slowly swam towards Xi Zhicai's mouth.
Water flows from the mouth and slowly flows into Xizhicai's lungs along the trachea.
Guan Yan carefully controlled the water flow. If there was a mistake, the water flow would fall into Xi Zhicai's lungs, which would probably make things worse. Xi Zhicai's life would not last long!
After a stick of incense, the water flowing around the lungs flowed out of Xi Zhicai's mouth again. The water was dirty and yellow, and there was also a trace of blood. The water flow fell into the empty basin with Guan Yan's control.
Looking at the color and impurities of the water, Chen Deng and Lao Fan couldn't help but gasp on the side.
Guan Yan gasped for a while, wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, and held his breath. A stream of clear water slowly flowed into Xi Zhicai's mouth again...
After repeating this for dozens of times, the clear water flowing out of Xi Zhicai's mouth gradually became clear.
Until the last stream of thin stream fell into the basin on the side, Guan Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and the string in his mind relaxed, and Guan Yan fell backwards in detachment.
Chen Deng hurriedly put Guan Yan's back with his hand and wiped the sweat from Guan Yan's head with his big sleeve: "Lord isn't you okay?"
Guan Yan didn't say anything, just frowned and closed his eyes without saying a word.
After a while, Guan Yan struggled to sit up and said in a weak way: "It's nothing, it's just too tired."
Guan Yan looked at Xi Zhicai who was sleeping on the bed, and then looked at the basin of water that was sinking to the bottom. Guan Yan said to Lao Fan softly: "The rust has been removed, and Mr. Xi should be fine. I have something important to do tomorrow, so I will say goodbye first!"
After saying that, Guan Yan slowly stood up with Chen Deng's support.
Lao Fan watched Xi Zhicai and said anxiously to Guan Yan: "Sir, I am very kind to my master, why don't you rest here for one night and leave tomorrow?"
"No, no, no." Guan Yan waved his hand: "Goodbye!"
With the help of Chen Deng, Guan Yan slowly walked out of the opera house and walked towards the camp.
Maybe Guan Yan was too tired last night, so he fell asleep after returning to the tent.
The next day, when the sun passed, Guan Yan opened his eyes with soreness.
Guan Yan sat up and leaned against the bed. From time to time, whispers came from outside the tent.
Guan Yan closed his eyes lazily and asked, "Who is outside the tent?"
When the person outside the tent heard the sound, he quickly lifted the curtain and walked in, and asked with concern: "Has the lord woke up?"
Guan Yan narrowed his eyes and found it was Chen Deng. Guan Yan closed his eyes and asked, "It's Yuanlong, are you talking to Lao Zhou just now?"
Chen Deng smiled: "No, lord, please see."
As he said that, Chen Deng turned around and lifted the curtain, bowed in one person, stood in front of Guan Yan with a smile on his face and bowed deeply, "Thank you for your help!"
I saw that this person was pale, with three wisps of beard floating under his jaw, and his literati outfit was not the same as the Xi Zhicai who was treated yesterday?
Guan Yan saw it and quickly sat up, dragged Xi Zhicai's left arm slightly with his right hand, and said, "Why do you have to do this? Please get up, please get up."
Xi Zhicai stood up straight, and Guan Yan then realized that although Xi Zhicai was still pale, he was no longer sick and even his breath was much more stable.
"Zhicai's destiny is saved by the great man, and a gentleman should repay his kindness!" Xi Zhicai looked at Guan Yan's eyes and said sincerely: "Zhicai's military strategy is well-versed, just like a lord who will not give up, and he is willing to work hard for the sake of a dog or a horse!" As he said that, Xi Zhicai bowed again.
"This..." Guan Yan was really uncomfortable with it when he suddenly came to join him. He was speechless for a moment.
Chen Deng thought Guan Yan had some concerns, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The lord is thirsty for talent. The day before yesterday, I wanted to seek talent in Yingchuan. Now that the great talent is here, why not treat it with courtesy?"
"Oh?" When Guan Yan heard that he was a talented man, he was a little excited. When he was excited, his body was even more out of control.
Chen Deng was anxious and thought Guan Yan was not moved yet, so he hurriedly said, "Justice is ten times more talented than Deng in just words. If Mr. Si helps him, the lord will be like a tiger with wings!"
Chen Deng said this, Guan Yan woke up and hurriedly helped Xi Zhicai up: "Mr. Xi is a great talent! Shu Yan's eyes are cramped and he has not asked for it in person!"
After Guan Yan finished speaking, Li Jing gave a big gift to Xi Zhi.
Xi Zhicai hurriedly lifted his robe and knelt down and saluted, "Xi Zhicai met the lord!"
