"We just need to further narrow down the scope..."
Li Ang muttered to himself, held on to the corner of the table and stood firm again. He breathed a long sigh of relief, waited for the pain to subside slightly, and then read again: "Tao gives birth to one, to the nameless, endowed with chaos, creating pure and turbid nature, and cultivating Taihe." ..."
He kept repeating this step, and the tingling sensation became stronger and clearer.
After several times, my clothes were completely soaked with sweat, and my whole body looked like it had just been fished out of the lake.
"..."
Chai Cuiqiao bit her lip tightly and said nothing. She just dipped the towel into the basin filled with warm water and silently helped Li Ang wipe his sweaty face.
Frontal area, approximately inferior to the superior sagittal sinus.
Li Ang leaned back, lay down in the chair, exhaled, closed his eyes, and the structure of his brain seemed to be reflected in front of his eyes.
Is this right here?
The last obstacle on the road to spiritual practice.
Li Ang raised his palm, as if to grasp the brain structure diagram that did not really exist.
The frontal lobe is an important part of the cerebral hemisphere before the central sulcus and above the lateral sulcus of the brain. It carries the first body motor area, premotor area, head and eye movement area, motor language center, writing center, and prefrontal cortex.
If this area is injured, neurological function may be damaged, motor aphasia, eye gaze disorder, etc.
In severe cases, it can lead to mental disorder or even death.
"The skull is broken and the sword is really broken..."
Li Ang murmured to himself, stood up, borrowed the towel from Chai Cuiqiao, wiped the sweat on his body, and changed into new clothes.
"Master, are you going out?"
"Well, let's go find that senior brother Ding Jingshan from Yiningfang."
Li Ang stretched, "Now I roughly know which area of the brain is causing the problem. I'll ask him to go to the academy on my behalf, borrow a few books, and see if there's anything I can do."
Boom, boom, boom!
There was a knock on the door outside the courtyard. Li Ang frowned slightly and signaled Chai Cuiqiao with his eyes to put away the pen and paper. He pushed the door open and went to the courtyard. He opened the door and asked, "Who is it?"
"Sunrise, it's us."
Four students from Zhenzhou looked anxious and said: "Shaoyuan has been taken away!"
"Brother Song?"
Li Ang was surprised and said, "What's going on? Tell me clearly."
The four students from Zhenzhou explained all at once. They wanted to find Zhai Yiming and Song Shaoyuan in the morning to comfort the two people who failed the exam - these two people usually lived in the same courtyard.
When they arrived in the yard, they only saw Song Shaoyuan and a group of men with tattoos on their faces and bodies, who were obviously not good-natured men, talking about something.
Four students from Zhenzhou wanted to come forward to ask, but they were pushed away by several tattooed men and told them not to mind their own business.
Song Shaoyuan, on the other hand, comforted them from a distance not to worry and never to report to the official, but to leave voluntarily with the other party.
Four classmates from Zhenzhou had no choice but to go into the room and wake up the drunk Zhai Yiming. They found that Zhai Yiming was so frustrated after failing the exam that he drank all night and had no idea what happened.
The four of them could only give Zhai Yiming a bowl of hangover soup, let him have a good rest in the house, and go out to find Li Ang, who was the most capable person.
"A man with tattoos on his face and body?"
Li Ang frowned and said: "The gangs in Chang'an City? When did Brother Song get involved with them? And you are told not to report to the official?"
"have no idea."
Classmate Zhenzhou shook his head and asked, "Risheng, what should we do now?"
Li Ang asked: "Where is Ji Linglang?"
Classmate Zhenzhou replied: "I went out of town with other female students to join the Chang'an Women's Club."
"...Let's go and find Yang Yu first."
Li Ang immediately made up his mind and asked Chai Cuiqiao to close the courtyard door and take care of the house while he and four classmates from Zhenzhou went to find Yang Yu.
Yang Yu was determined to go to Granny Tang at the entrance of the West Market every afternoon to drink a bowl of glutinous rice. When Li Ang and others found him, he had just sat down not long ago.
"Shaoyuan was taken away? Who is the other party? Dare to kidnap students in broad daylight?"
Yang Yu clapped his chopsticks in surprise, thought for a moment and asked: "Wait a minute... what does the tattoo on the other person's face look like?
It's the flying cloud pattern,
Or wave pattern? "
"Tattoos..."
The four students from Zhenzhou thought for a moment, "None of them. The leader has a caged bird tattooed under his bangs on his forehead."
"Caged bird?"
Yang Yu's pupils shrank, he took a deep breath, and said to the servant beside him: "When we go to Chang'an County, we tell him to find the bad guy Wu Shiqi, and go on horseback, and be quick."
"Wu Shiqi, wasn't he the tour guide when our Sanzhou students entered Chang'an? Yang Qilang, you mentioned before that he used to be a member of the Suran Gang."
A classmate asked doubtfully: "Did the Suran Gang take away Shaoyuan?"
"No, the Suran Gang's chassis is Luyun Di Store, and the tattoo pattern is a cow tattooed behind the ear.
There is only one family that embroiders a caged bird. "
Yang Yu said slowly: "Pingkangfang, Jiaocheng."
The sound of horse hooves went away and returned, and the servants beside Yang Yu rode back, followed by Wu Shiqi, who was wearing a bad guy's uniform.
"I happened to be on patrol in the West City."
Wu Shiqi smiled at Li Ang and others, raised his hands to Yang Yu and said, "Qi Lang of the Yang family, are you looking for me?"
Yang Yu nodded and said, "Well, one of my friends, Song Shaoyuan, who you took around Chang'an before, was taken away by Jiao Cheng's people. I want to know what happened."
"Jiao Cheng...how could Student Song offend him?"
Wu Qiqi frowned in surprise. Seeing the expressions of Li Ang and others, he hurriedly explained: "Students, you don't know. Pingkangfang is divided into Beiqu, Zhongqu and Nanqu. There are Lianhua Tower, Zuifang Tower and so on. Tower and Linyue Tower are collectively called Sanqu Sanlou.
These three floors are all top-notch gold-selling caves in the world, and behind Lianhua Building and Zuifang Building, they are all closely related to Jiao Cheng. "
According to Wu Qiqi, Jiao Cheng's mother was a brothel girl. She didn't know who her father was since she was a child. When she grew up, she worked as a servant in Sanqu and was often beaten and scolded.
Jiao Cheng has been very sophisticated since he was a child. He never retaliates when hit or scolded. He greets every guest with a smile even if his leg is broken by a drunk guest. He can remember every guest's appearance, place of origin, address and even preferences.
Relying on the ability to observe people's emotions and flatter everyone, he started as a servant and gradually became the biggest steward among the three songs.
Even further.
"The third floor of Sanqu is the place of romance, and countless dignitaries go there every night to enjoy themselves.
Even if you whisper on the pillow, it is only 70% false and 30% true.
These three parts of the truth, when put together, become extremely terrifying. "
Wu Qiqi whispered: "No one knows how many important people's private affairs Jiao Cheng holds, and how many secrets he holds that can put people to death.
Because of this, Jiao Cheng could live such a stable life - on the one hand, he was always protected by several monks, and on the other hand, the people above him did not want him to die.
Seven years ago, a supervisory censor who was under the eighth rank wanted to get rid of Jiao Cheng on the grounds that he was suspected of selling women. As a result, the next day, the supervisory censor was accused of condoning the annexation and violence of his family members who were far away in Zhuangzhou. Reason, expelled from Chang'an.
Even after the incident was over, no one knew who helped Jiao Chengping. "
"Pingkangfang Jiaocheng is a dog for many people."
Yang Yu said softly: "But only he knows who the reins around his neck belong to."
