When Ziwen started writing, the moment he stood up, his head suddenly felt dizzy and the surroundings fell into darkness. Xiao Yi heard the sound of several cases being knocked down in the thatched house next door, and thought something must have happened to Ziwen. He got up in a hurry and ran to the thatched house where Ziwen lived, shouting: "Ziwen, Ziwen." He opened the door and saw Ziwen lying on the ground. Xiao Yi stood at the door and exclaimed: "Ziwen." He rushed forward and helped Ziwen lie down on the bed. After a long time, Ziwen slowly opened his eyes, looked at Xiao Yi sitting next to him, and said: "Sir, I'm afraid I won't survive tonight." Xiao Yi sat aside and comforted: "Ziwen, no. You are talking such nonsense, you will get better, you just need a good rest." Zi Zheng walked out and brought a bowl of bark and grass root porridge. Xiao Yi took the bowl of porridge and said: "Ziwen, you are hungry. Drink it quickly. You will feel better soon." Ziwen took the bowl of porridge from Xiao Yi's hand and took a sip. Zou pointed at the stacked letters on several desks and said: "Sir, these are the quotations compiled by my disciples that you usually teach your disciples. They haven't named them yet." There was always a smile on Ziwen's face. The ant looked at the mountains of letters piled on top of the cases and said, "Let's call it 'Ziyu'."

In the bitterly cold night, Ziwen still couldn't survive the night and left the insect world. Ziwen was lying peacefully in Xiao Yi's arms. Ziwen was Xiao Yi's most proud disciple. He was smart and eager to learn. He drew inferences about Xiao Yi's teachings and was the most outstanding disciple among all Xiao Yi's disciples. Being jealous of talented people, dying young is the most painful thing for Xiao Yi. Because of Ziwen's death, Xiao Yi went on a hunger strike for three days and three nights, and finally fell ill. Its disciples took out Ziwen's body and buried it on the top of Langya Mountain to welcome the rising and setting of the sun every day. Ziwen was wrapped in a cold mat when he died. Ziwen lived a poor life, and when he died, he was simply buried.

Three days later, Xiao Yi dragged the sick body to Ziwen's grave to worship. Ziwen's death was a great blow to Xiao Yi. He cried very sadly and said: "Wen! I have seen its progress but not its end. His heart is not contrary to benevolence for three months. A basket of food, A ladle of drink, in a back alley, where the insects are too worried, but the text does not change its joy, so virtuous, the text." The little ant squatted in front of the tomb, then stood up to look at it, and began to cry uncontrollably, while his body was shaking uncontrollably. , extraordinary grief. The disciple following it said: "Sir, you are grieving too much." Xiao Yi turned around and looked at his disciples and said, "Am I grieving too much? If I don't grieve for such a disciple, who should I grieve for?" Where are you? God wants to kill me!" Zisang, Zizhang and Fazhang stepped forward and said, "Sir, please take care of yourself!" Xiao Yi looked at the faces of Zisang, Zizhang and Fazhang, Said: "Zisang, Zizhang, Fazhang, I know you are leaving me. Go and realize your lofty ambitions." Zisang, Zizhang and Fazhang's three disciples knelt down together and said: " Sir, let's go." Xiao Yi waved his hand and said: "Go, go." The three disciples Zi Sang, Zizhang and Fazhang left Xiao Yi.

After Shang Fu left Qi State, he first went to Wei State and stayed in the home of a friend of Wei State. Like this friend of his, he is a fellow traveler. He once did business with Shang Fu, and his family was extremely wealthy, making him as wealthy as his country. Facing these delicacies every day is hard to swallow. Its friend saw that it was depressed all day long, so he asked: "Shang Fu, I see that you are depressed. Do you have something on your mind?" Shang Fu told his friend his difficulties and said: "My husband I'm still starving and freezing, how can I swallow it?" Its friend asked again: "Your husband is the little ant, right?" Shang Fu replied: "Exactly." The friend said: "I once I heard that Xiao Yi was once the most outstanding retainer in Prime Minister Zhao's house and was deeply loved by Prime Minister Zhao. Mr. Zhao will never sit idly by and do nothing about this matter." Shang Fu said: "Xiang Zhao wants to betroth his beloved daughter to him. Give it to my husband, but King Zhao takes the lead. My husband is also a strong-willed insect. How do you ask my husband to say this?" The friend asked again: "Where does Shang Fu want to go?" Shang Fu replied: "Chu Country." After hearing this, the friend laughed a few times and said: "But there is no road money!" Shang Fu nodded and said: "I am worried about this!" His friend was a cheerful insect, and said: "Okay, I will give you thousands of taels of jade and gold and silver to support you. Do you think it is enough?" Shang Fu said, "That's enough. I will definitely pay you back when I get rich in the future." The friend said, "I believe in your kindness. I will help you with funds." Shang Fu raised the wine bottle and said, "This friend of yours, Shang Fu, is committed." The friend raised the wine bottle and drank in one gulp, and Shang Fu drank with him. Then he stood up and held his hands in front of him, saluted and said: "Brother Shiwei, Shang Fu takes leave now." He took a few steps back, turned around and walked out.

Shiwei followed and ordered his servants to carry out several boxes of gold, silver and jade, place them in front of Shang Fu, and open them. When Shang Fu saw these boxes of gold, silver and jade, he knelt and said, "Thank you." Shiwei stood in front of the courtyard gate and said, "Shang Fu doesn't need to say thank you. Just go ahead and ask me if it's not enough." He ordered his servants to ask for more. These boxes of gold, silver and jade were loaded into the car, and he faced the servant again and said, "Follow this friend of mine. We will take care of each other along the way." The servant knelt down and said, "Master." Shi Wei said: " Go ahead, my friend will not treat you badly." The servant stood up and looked at Shang Fu who was standing behind him, and then at Shiwei who was standing in front of him. He felt a little reluctant to leave and said, "Master, I have gone. "Shiwei waved his hand and said: "Go." He got in the car with Shang Fu. Servants sit in front of the car and help the merchant drive the car. Shiwei walked out and stood outside the courtyard gate, looking at the leaving carriage. Shiwei and Shang Fu are good friends who have not seen each other for many years. They have never seen each other since Shang Fu became a disciple of Xiao Yi. Today, friends who have not seen each other for many years reunite again, which is doubly cherished. Today, Shang Fu left, and the two insects parted ways from now on. This is something that everyone is reluctant to part with.

They ran towards Daliang, the capital of Wei State, entered Daliang City and continued southward. Three days later, they entered the territory of Chu State. Chu State has a vast territory and rich resources. If you want to reach Shouchun, the capital of Chu State, it will take at least one day and one night to travel. They entered Chendi in the Chu Kingdom. When they arrived at Chendi, they saw that it was already getting late, so they had to find a post station along the way to rest for a night before continuing on their way.

Shang Fu and his servant Er Chong rushed to an inn, stood in front of the counter, and said, "Two upper rooms." The inn's waiter walked in front and held a lamp for them, took them upstairs, opened the two guest rooms, and turned around and said, " Two rooms." Shang Fu walked into his room and looked around. Several men carried several heavy boxes into the room, placed them in the room, and then exited the room together. Then he took the servant into the next room. After Shang Fu entered the room, he stood in front of the window sill, looking up at the full moon in the sky. Then the waiter went upstairs with several plates of sumptuous dishes and stood in front of Shang Fu's door and knocked on the door. Shang Fu was alert when he heard the knock on the door and asked sharply: "Who is it?" The waiter at the inn said: "Sir, it's me." When Shang Fu heard the voice of the waiter at the inn, he stepped forward and opened the door and stood aside. The waiter of the inn shop came in and placed the food on the tables in front of the couch. Shang Fu came up and sat in front of the table and asked: "Did you send it to the next door?" The waiter at the inn stood aside and replied: "Sent it." Then he asked: "The guest officer is a businessman, right? "Shang Fu looked at the waiter of the inn shop who was standing aside and said: "Exactly." The waiter of the inn station shop asked again: "Where did the guest come from? Where are you going?" Shang Fu said: "Here is the guest. Shang Chong from the Kingdom of Wei is heading to Shouchun, the capital of the Chu Kingdom." The waiter at the inn nodded after hearing this, and reminded: "This journey is not smooth, sir, please be careful." Shang Fu stood up, bowed his hands in front of him, and said, "Thank you. "The waiter at the inn shop said: "Sir, please use your time. I won't disturb you anymore." Shang Fu just nodded with a smile. The waiter at the inn shop exited the room and closed the door.

Shang Fu drank alone and looked up at the full moon in the sky. It knew very well that its husband and its brothers and sisters were still suffering from hunger and cold, and it felt uncomfortable in its heart. It wished it could put a pair of wings on itself and fly to Shouchun, the capital of Chu State, to bring in reinforcements to relieve the husband. Getting out of the predicament is its biggest wish at the moment. Now I can only drown my sorrows with wine, but who knows that sorrow will be poured out on top of melancholy.

It had been three days and three nights since it arrived from Daliang, the capital of Wei State, to Chendi, Chu State. Perhaps it was too tired, so it fell on the bed and fell asleep. The bright moonlight fell, a breeze blew in, extinguishing the candles in front of the couch, and the green smoke slowly rose. Ziwen's voice came from somewhere, calling: "Junior brother, junior brother!" Shang Fu was sleeping in his sleep. He heard Ziwen calling it, sat up and walked down, looked around, and called: "Brother, senior brother." At this time, Ziwen was standing in front of it, and the moonlight shone on Ziwen's pale and pale face. Sick face. Ziwen said: "Junior brother, senior brother is leaving, sir. I leave it to you. You must take good care of me." Shang Fu asked: "Senior brother, where are you going?" Ziwen just smiled silently, with no expression on his face. Feeling no pain at all, he said: "I'm going to pursue the path of Sir." He slowly turned around and left, heading towards the moonlight, disappearing into the moonlight. Shang Fu looked at the full moon outside the window and called out: "Senior brother, senior brother." With a very helpless expression, tears shed from the corners of his eyes, and he looked towards the place where Ziwen left.

Shang Fu woke up from his dream, got up and sat in front of several cases, waiting until dawn. The rising sun rises in the east, and the morning sun comes in through the window. Shang Fu sat in front of several desks, opened his eyes, walked out of the room, and went to wake up the servant sleeping next door. Several guys carried heavy boxes downstairs, and then loaded the boxes into the car. After Shang Fu said goodbye to the waiter at the inn, the servant drove out of the inn and rushed to Shouchun, the capital of Chu State.

It arrived at Shouchun, the capital of Chu State, on the next day. It knew that Ling Yin of Chu State was a good jade, and the first thing he wanted to do was to visit Ling Yin's mansion at Ling Yin's mansion. Standing in front of the gate of Ling Yin's Mansion, the servant stepped forward to knock on the door. The doorman who opened the door poked his head out and asked, "Who are you? Why do you come to visit my master?" Shang Fu stepped forward and said, "This is me. Shang Chong of the State of Wei, currently Shang Fu, a disciple of the Little Yi sect, has come to ask for an audience with your family’s commander, Dachong. Please be accommodating." Then he took out his jewelry and stuffed it into the servant's sleeves, and said with a smile: "It's a small thought, but it's not respectful. Please be accommodating." The doorman reached out to touch the jewelry in his sleeves, weighed their weight, and said with a smile: "Sir, please wait outside the door. I will report it to my master right away." Shang Fu said, "Okay, go quickly."

At this time, Ling Yin was sleeping in the arms of Mei Chong, enjoying the fun among insects, but was ruined by a servant. The doorman entered Ling Yin's bedroom and said: "Master, there is a bug at the door of the house asking to see you." Ling Yin's voice came from the tent, saying: "Who is it?" Then the voice of a beautiful bug came out: "Is it possible? Don't you know that your master is busy with business?" Mending was immediately frightened and knelt on the ground with a thud, saying: "Master, I heard it is Xiao Yi's disciple Shang Fu." Ling Yin opened the curtain. , walked out in his nightgown and said: "I heard that Xiao Yi is the insect saint of Zhao State, and his disciple Shang Fu is a famous merchant insect of Wei State. His wealth can be described as being as rich as the enemy of the country. Please invite me quickly, please come quickly." Please." Mei Chong reached out of the tent and said coquettishly: "Master, who is this Shang Fu? It makes the master so impatient." Ling Yin turned around and walked in, teasing from time to time, and said: "My Mei Ji!" Mei Ji smiled shyly. Ling Yin felt very fond of her and said, "Shang Fu is a very famous insect in Wei State. If you get in touch with it, money will flow in like running water." Then. Then she smiled obscenely and said, "Meiji, I'll go and be right back." She faced the doorman and said, "Go and invite this God of Wealth in. I'll be there later."
