Duanmu Xu's question also caused Duanmu Luojia's question, the Fan family's attitude towards the crown prince and the emperor that day may be a pawn to separate the current imperial court.

When Duanmu Luojia's gaze fell on Fan Lu, Fan Lu was busy explaining. "Her Royal Highness the princess, my Fan family has always been loyal to the emperor, and there is no second heart. ”

"Lord Fan is naturally loyal to the imperial court, there is no doubt about this. Bai Jiansheng only asked, after all, Xianjing was in a bit of chaos at that time, and he never thought of going to protect Lord Fan and the others. If there is a next time, more people will be sent to guard the important ministers of the imperial court. Duanmu Luojia said.

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone next to him was stunned. They all understood the meaning of protecting the important ministers of the court. The only thing I don't understand is why the princess still mentioned that if there is a next time, it may be a slip of the tongue.

Fan Lu didn't know how to respond, so he could only say, "Thank you princess for your concern." ”

This unpleasant question and answer did not prevent Fan Lu from inspecting Feng Xiandu subsequently.

He looked at the direction of the water, then looked at the peaks on the opposite bank, and then listened to Duanmu Xu talk about some of the conditions under the water, and kept muttering, as if he was recalling the ancient books or miscellaneous books he had read.

In the end, Fan Lu's conclusion is simple, the water of the Henghe River has indeed shifted. In this Fengxian crossing, it shifted nearly 20 zhang to the north.

But what's the use?

What's the use of finding those Immersion Silvers?

Over the years, people with the idea of Shen Yin have emerged one after another. It's not just the imperial court thinking about it, but even all kinds of people fantasizing about it, or secretly putting it into action.

There are even a few words circulating, "Shilong to Shihu, gold and silver are ten thousand five, who can see through it, buy Yangzhou Mansion." ”

But what is a stone dragon and what is a stone tiger, no one can explain. What's more, no one knows who these words came from, and how credible they are.

The fog that shrouded this Shen Yin was layer after layer, artificial, and caused by the passage of time, of course, the change of the river water is undoubtedly the most tricky.

Cracking the Shenyin mystery case was at an impasse, but it did not disappoint Duanmu Xu and give up, after all, there are more important places to see.

There was no harvest in Fengxiandu, and these people went downstream.

The second place they came to was called Danzhou Town. It is said that this was caused by the great monks who knocked down the mountain peak by the Yokogawa River and fell in the middle of the water.

This Danzhou town is also very strange, it is a big river island in the Henghe River, but no bridges have been built, and the two sides of the river are crossed by boats.

In this Danzhou town, there are no more than 100 families, but although they are small, they are complete.

The streets, small shops, and elementary schools, of course, most of the people here make a living from fishing, and they don't have much contact with the outside world.

When Duanmuxu and the others came by ferry, the people in the town came out one after another, and they were still quite curious about these strangers.

Because of Duanmu Luojia's orders, he did not let these people be informed of their identities. So the people in Danzhou Town just felt that there were some people with status, but they didn't know the specifics.

However, the squire of Danzhou Town was also a shrewd person, and hurriedly came up to ask if there was anything he could serve, although he did not know the details of these people, but he still enthusiastically arranged a good residence.

After Duanmuxu and the others stayed, they wandered around this Danzhou town.

However, they were soon asked if they had come to look for the gold and silver that had sunk into the Yokogawa.

After inquiring, every few years, anyway, there are always some people who come to Danzhou Town, thinking about finding some clues about Shenyin back then, and want to make a fortune.

Duanmu Xu, these new faces, naturally belong to these people. And every time these people come here, they will stay for a few days, and they are also very generous, but they really can't find any clues before they leave.

Therefore, Danzhou Town is particularly enthusiastic about the new faces that appear in the town. After all, these people can always bring some silver taels, and occasionally talk to them about the customs and customs of other places in Daxian.

The reaction of the people in Danzhou Town made Duanmu Xu feel that they were repeating the road taken by their predecessors, and it was a useless road.

Because the people in this town also mentioned those few words, "Shi Long to Shi Hu, gold and silver are ten thousand five, who knows through it, buy Yangzhou Mansion." Then they mentioned that these words seemed to come from the old gentleman in the elementary school, saying that they would not be able to live in the future, and that when they were away from home, they might be able to do some good by talking to the outside world.

Hearing this, Duanmu Xu couldn't help but admire the old man in Danzhou Town. Perhaps after the Great War a hundred years ago, the people of Danzhou Town discovered this place, where in addition to fishing for a living, can also grow some crops, but this is limited after all. The so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and rely on the water to draft water, in addition to these, the people here may also be able to use the war to make some benefits, so this strange sentence spread.

This is Duanmu Xu's guess.

With this speculation, there is even less hope of finding Shen Yin.

What's even more laughable is that when they came to the only primary school in the town, the sound of reading inside was "Stone Dragon vs. Stone Tiger".

Such four sentences have long been known on the streets, and how can they find the secret clues of Shen Yin.

After the reading was over, I heard the old gentleman inside explaining the meaning of these words.

"If you find the stone dragon and the stone tiger in the river, then there is a high probability that you will find countless gold, silver and jewels next to it. Remember, none of this is to be believed. This was made up in order to use rumors to make some benefits for this town. ”

The old gentleman in the school is also worried that these schoolchildren will really think about going to treasure hunting in the future and miss the big thing.

After wandering around, the thought of looking for Shen Yin became a little lighter.

But no matter what, Duanmu Xu still went into the water again to see the situation under the water, but it was a little different from Feng Xiandu. This place was originally formed after the mountain peaks were flattened by the great monks, the water of the Henghe River was blocked, and then dredged again.

The underwater situation has long been lost in its original appearance, and it is all the traces left by the original war.

Duanmu Xu was thinking now about whether the wooden ship full of gold and silver sank in front of this Danzhou Town, or after this, no one had any clear answer.

Even Fan Lu, a person who has clearly investigated all kinds of folk rumors or wild historical records, can't come up with a conclusive conclusion.

After a bit of play, since there is no clue, the group is leaving.

But before leaving, Duanmu Xu came to the elementary school again. He was fascinated by this primary school, and he must have never had the experience of studying in a primary school like this. If Uncle Huangfu hadn't taught him to read and write, he would have really become a kitchen handyman who could only do hard work.

Duanmu Xu pushed open the courtyard door of the primary school. The schoolchildren who were originally studying inside had already gone home from school to eat, and there was only one old gentleman who taught. The old gentleman looks very old, I don't know the specific age, but it should be very old.

Seeing the arrival of Duanmu Xu, the old gentleman was a little surprised. Although there are some new faces in this town, he is in this school all day long, so naturally he doesn't know.

"Excuse me, sir," Duanmu said respectfully.

"Please come in. The old gentleman said.

Duanmu Xu followed in, and then sat on a wooden bench under the guidance of the old gentleman.

Looking at the age of this old gentleman, it must be the old gentleman who told the people in this town to spread those four sentences outside. Thinking of this, Duanmu Xu couldn't help but be in awe.

Duanmu Xu looked around, this school should be a long time. Although the doors and windows are still relatively new, the stone slabs under their feet are polished in many places.

After seeing this small school, Duanmu Xu said, "Yesterday, I heard Mr. explain the meaning of the stone dragon and the stone tiger outside the house, and I thought it was interesting, so I took the liberty to visit. ”

"Oh, you're here for a treasure hunt. Although the old gentleman was old, his reaction was extremely quick, and he immediately thought of Duanmu Xu's intentions.

Duanmu Xu nodded.

"Back then, looking at these people who migrated to this river, their livelihood was difficult, so they had to talk a few nonsense, thinking that there was always some curiosity that the people who were Shen Yin would come to see it, maybe it could bring some benefits to the people in this town. Therefore, it is all nonsense, not worth mentioning, and not worth believing. The old gentleman thought back slowly, and said slowly.

"The old gentleman has worked tirelessly to teach and educate people here, and at the same time has a compassionate heart, which is really admirable. Duanmu Xu said sincerely.

"The little brother has won the prize, the village man, where do you understand these truths, but you just follow your heart. ”

Encountering an old gentleman who has dedicated his life to teaching, Duanmu Xu is sincerely admired, and since there are no clues here, he also plans to leave.

But when he got up, he saw where the schoolchildren were sitting, and he was slightly stunned.

These wooden stools and desks are not neatly arranged in rows, but are somewhat haphazard. Could it be that the schoolchildren bullied the old gentleman who was deaf and blind, and deliberately posed like this?

But looking at the appearance of this old gentleman, it is not enough.

After Duanmu Xu looked at these wooden stools and wooden tables, his eyes returned to the old gentleman, and he found that the old gentleman was also looking at him.

Duanmu Xu stretched out his hand to straighten the wooden stools and tables, but the old gentleman didn't care, didn't say a word of thanks, and didn't stop him.

After all, Duanmu Xu couldn't help it, and said, "The old gentleman must have spent a lot of effort to teach these unenlightened schoolchildren. ”

The old gentleman turned a deaf ear to Duanmu Xu's praise again, as if he was a little settled, and then as if he had woken up, he said, "Go slowly." ”

Duanmu Xu was stunned, although he had the intention of saying goodbye, but after all, he was still in it at this time, and this old gentleman seemed to be really old.

He arched his hand and left the small school.

When Duanmu Xu returned to his residence, the seats of the messy schoolchildren in the primary school hall reappeared, he had a familiar feeling before, but he just couldn't remember.

It was only then that he suddenly remembered that this was somewhat like the disorder on the magic disk in his original hand. Especially where those wooden stools and desks are located and at opposite angles.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Xu's heart was shocked.

If this was the case, he thought of the layout of the empty view in the purple bamboo forest, and even more thought of the reason for this sinking silver, and also thought that this was the battlefield of the great war that year.

It's all about that magic word.

At this time, he thought more, and at the same time was shocked. Why is the magic pattern on the magic plate that Uncle Huangfu gave him so similar to the places related to these demon sects.

After falling into a coma in the purple bamboo forest, he woke up from the bottom of Huashan Mountain and turned back, and then he went all the way north, and then the crisis in Xianjing City and the sudden death of his mother Chu Baiwei, things were rushed one by one, and he never thought about these things that happened before. Now that you look closely, there may be an unimaginable truth in this.

The more Duanmu thought about it, the more frightened he became. He interrupted his preparations for departure again and ran to the elementary school again.

Knowing that this trip was probably extremely dangerous, he didn't tell anyone else, only saying that there were still some clues that he couldn't figure out, and he wanted to continue looking.

However, when Duanmu Xu came to the front of this elementary school, he found that there were all schoolchildren with surprised faces, looking for their husband.

The old gentleman was gone.

The news spread throughout Danzhou Town at once.

The old gentleman who has been teaching here for many, many years, is gone.

The town of Danzhou fell into extreme discomfort, and those schoolchildren did not have a teacher to teach. And for so many years, although I saw the old gentleman who taught looked old, he was still alive, and the people in the entire Danzhou Town slowly got used to Mr. Teaching always being there. From the older generation to the younger generation, they are all adapted to the existence of the old gentleman. As for the surprise of the old gentleman's longevity, they all feel that it should be attributed to the old gentleman's own benevolence. Only such a person can be favored by God.

The old gentleman, who is the spiritual symbol of Danzhou Town, is gone.

Many people went to the elementary school hall and were in pain.

But what is more important now is how to continue the education of these schoolchildren.
