Wu Zu knew that what he said was too complicated, Xiao Bao'er couldn't understand, so he folded a paper boat and put it in the wine bowl, assuming that the paper boat was a tomb, the wine bowl was a mountain, and the wine was the dark river. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

As he spoke, he poured wine into the bowl and drank it again. No matter how much wine there is, the paper boat is floating in the bowl, and the only difference is that the location is different.

The same is true of the tomb of the King of Liao, Sima Xiao was inspired by the heavenly burial and water burial, and changed the traditional burial method of entering the earth for peace, and built the tomb of the King of Liao above the dark river.

The feeling of the tomb in the dark river is very much like a paper boat floating on a wine bowl, and the approximate location can be determined, but the exact location varies slightly depending on the water level.

Xiao Bao'er's so-called passage is only the outer building of the tomb, and the tomb can be found by following the passage. Due to the water level of the dark river, the entrance to the tomb is different from year to year, which means that the arrangement of the mechanism is also different.

Traditional tomb robbing methods have no way to deal with this kind of water tomb, neither can observe the specific location of the tomb through the soil, nor can it be possible to rob the cave on the snowy plateau to lead to the tomb.

The only way is to follow Sima Xiao's rules to find a living door. Sima Xiao is the best at the Nine Palaces Bagua Array, and the tomb built is also built according to the derivation of this array, with eight passages connecting eight tomb doors, of which there is only one living door.

If you want to enter the tomb of King Liao, you must find all eight tomb roads, and guess which door is the living door according to the arrangement of the organ. Once you guess wrong, you will die when you enter the tomb, and if you don't wait for another passage to enter, the pattern of the tomb will change due to the change of the dark river.

Xiao Bao'er said fearfully, "Oh my God, it's so complicated, fortunately, I didn't dare to go in that day because I was in awe." ”

Wu Zu smiled bitterly, he had been in Northern Liao for so many years, and he probably knew four passages to the tomb of King Liao, and now he knew the fifth passage.

For many years, he had suspected that Qikonghua was just a story recorded by Sima Xiao, but Xiao Baoer gave him the answer he wanted the most, Qikonghua really existed. Thinking that he would be able to heal his beloved woman soon, he sincerely thanked the gods of Northern Liao for his protection for the first time.

Xiao Bao's Ear Ai asked, "Wu Zu, the underwater green boat I'm looking for won't be as complicated as the white sails in the sky, right?" If that's the case, she doesn't plan to go.

I can't find it at all, and even if I do, how can I find the so-called life gate on the vast sea.

Wu Zu hesitated for a moment and said, "The Green Boat on the Sea is an island, and the island will surface for two to three days on the fifteenth day of every month, so you must take advantage of this opportunity to land on the island. ”

Xiao Bao'er asked with some disbelief: "It's so simple, why can't anyone find it?"

"Sailing is like finding your way in the desert. The location of the island is so special that all the instruments used for navigation in the nearby waters will fail, and the captain can only rely on the experience of the captain. ”

Having said this, Wu Zu suddenly changed the topic and asked the guards at the door to call Yao Xitong.

"It's useless to tell you about the voyage, just tell Feng Gongzi directly. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Bao'er drank a bowl of wine angrily, "Who am I so stupid to blame? It's not that your enlightenment education is not good, you don't let me read, and take me around the grassland all day long." ”

Wu Zu was happy, "You have ripped off most of my books and fed them to the horse, and you blame me for not teaching you to read, who sleeps when you see words? If you really read books, why haven't you made any progress in the five years of Great Xia......?"

Xiao Bao'er is stupid, and she can't talk about Wu Zu. When he saw Yao Xitong coming in, he said coquettishly: "Dead turtle, he said I was stupid, I can't talk about him, hurry up and help!"

According to Wu Zu, the underwater green boat is an island, and there are hundreds of islands of the same size in its vicinity.

If the navigation device cannot be used, drive to the nearby sea first. Once you notice signs of warming, follow the current to a sea full of reefs and islands.

It's very close to the island you're looking for, but there are still hundreds of islands in the vast sea, which one is it?

Climb the islands, find out which ones are very dangerous among the hundreds of islands, and search for neighboring islands if they are also dangerous. If there are three islands that are dangerous, after nightfall, compare the positions of the three islands with the Big Dipper in the sky to find out the location of the Wenqu Xingjun of the Tianquan Palace.

When Wu Zu said this, he suddenly winked at Yao Xitong. The movements were very light, and Yao Xitong had been listening to him attentively, and couldn't help but think: What does this mean?

Then I heard him ask: "Feng Gongzi, do you know anything about the astrology, do you know that the Big Dipper appears in different directions in the sky at different times in different seasons and nights?"

Yao Xitong is a Tanhualang anyway, and it is impossible not to understand this kind of common sense thing. But I heard him say: "I know very little about the stars, I would like to hear about them!"

Speaking of the Big Dipper, the ancients decided the seasons according to the direction of the bucket handle at the beginning of dusk: the bucket handle points to the east, the world is spring, the bucket handle guide, the world is summer, the bucket handle points to the west, the world is autumn, the bucket handle points to the north, the world is winter. If you go looking for the green boat under the water at this time, the handle should be facing due north......"

Wu Zu's topic turned to the astrology, Xiao Bao'er was drowsy when she heard it, and took the initiative to leave.

Not long after the person left, he only heard Wu Zu ask, "Are you Sima Shu's son?"

"It's not. Yao Xitong's answer made Wu Zu stunned, could it be that Xiao Bao'er was lying?

I only heard Yao Xitong continue: "She gave birth to me, but killed me, and the debt to her has been repaid, and this life is my own." ”

"So you don't have amnesia?"

Yao Xitong looked at Wu Zu with a playful expression, as if asking: You took her away just to tell me this?

Wu Zu smiled awkwardly, he took Xiao Bao'er away in order to talk to Yao Xitong about the Sima family. It's just that he asked another question before saying anything, "No matter what happened between you and Sima Shu, you have the blood of the Sima family in your body, are you willing to become the patriarch of the Sima family?"

Yao Xitong didn't raise his eyelids and said, "I'm not interested!"

Wu Zu didn't expect to be rejected, and hurriedly explained: "The Sima family I'm talking about is not the one that was wiped out, but the one that has been passed down from the time of the ancestor Sima Xiao to the present, and the underwater green boat you are looking for is guarded by this group of people." ”

Yao Xitong glanced at Wu Zu, still the same sentence, "I'm not interested!"

Wu Zu was anxious and shouted, "Do you know how much time and effort the First Emperor, the Song Lord, and the Black and White Pavilion Pavilion Master put in to find the underwater green boat?"

Yao Xitong finally became a little interested, and was willing to listen to Wu Zu tell about the past of the Sima family and Mei Shiren's true identity. As for whether to take over the hot potato of the patriarch of the Sima family, he decided to think about it after listening to it!

Wu Zu made a long story short, the Sima family has been divided into two branches since Sima Xiao returned. It turned out that the one was still in the whirlpool of power, and the other one seemed to be invisible and became more and more low-key, and in the end it became a legend.

Wu Zu's real name is Sima Changkong, and he was born with the responsibility of the family, and he must go to the underwater green boat once every fifteen years.

His mission was to bring out some books from the underwater green boat and give them to the Sima family when necessary, so that they could continue to prosper as always. At the same time, they will also bring daily necessities and recently collected classics to the family members who stayed behind in the underwater green boat.

Wu Zu only used two sentences to summarize the family's behavior in the past hundred years, and countless details were brought by him in one sentence, as if he wanted to attract Yao Xitong to become the patriarch of the family to learn more.

Yao Xitong was not fooled, how much Wu Zu said, how much he listened, and he didn't ask questions at all.

Wu Zu talked about Mei Shiren again, this person's original name was Jin Ke, and he was his scholar.

Yao Xitong's curiosity was finally aroused, the Sima family was so powerful that a scholar could make a place like a ghost town, why was it still raided and exterminated?

Wu Zu sighed and talked about it helplessly.

The scholar of the Sima family is by no means the kind that Yao Xitong thinks, he can know a few words, help spread the word, serve the master's daily life, etc. The scholars of the Sima family are scholars in the true sense of the word, and these people bear the heavy responsibility of bringing books from the underwater green boat into the interior.

Tens of thousands of books have to travel from the island to the mainland, and the costs and risks incurred during this period are too high, and in the event of a shipwreck, the loss will be priceless.

In order to solve this problem, the Sima family thought of a way, they put books into people's heads, and tens of thousands of heavy books turned into a few simple young people.

is like Mei Shiren, the purpose of his life is to endorse books, and to accurately put tens of thousands of books in his head. When he came of age, he left the island and went inland to become a scholar of Wuzu.

As soon as a certain book was needed in the clan, he dictated it into a book and delivered it to those who needed it. Fifteen years later, he will be forced to return to the island, becoming an elder on the island, and will never be able to return to the interior for the rest of his life.

Worried that the children would learn too much and cause harm if they went out, the elders on the island had a special set of methods to deal with them. Soon after Mei Shiren was born, he was abolished by the elders of the meridians of his body, ensuring that he could not practice martial arts, and set an acupuncture point on his body as a life acupoint, once he touched it, he would definitely die.

The Sima family has enforced this set of rules for nearly a hundred years, and there have been defectors during this period, but Mei Shiren is still the first. He not only poisoned Wu Zu, but also forced other scholars to recite books silently, taking all the intellectual wealth belonging to the Sima family for himself.

After doing all this, he disappeared without a trace. If it weren't for Xiao Bao'er mentioning the Black and White Pavilion, Wu Zu would not have thought that Mei Shiren would run to get a Jianghu organization if he was afraid of scratching his head.

Speaking of this, Yao Xitong asked Wu Zu curiously, did Mei Shiren know the specific location of the underwater green boat?

Wu Zu avoided answering and asked him again if he was willing to become the patriarch of the Sima family?

Yao Xitong still replied categorically: "I'm not interested." ”

Wu Zu was out of options, and quipped: "You are helping Yelu Baby to anger me, after talking about it for a long time, why don't you eat oil and salt?"

Yelu Bao'er is pronounced Yelu Baobao in Northern Liao dialect, but there are not many people who dare to call her like this, and there are only the King of Northern Liao, Wuzu and Xuanze over the years.

Yao Xitong knew about the underwater green boat, Wu Zu still had something to hide, this person didn't want to say it, and he didn't force it. Seeing that Wu Zu didn't mention anything else, he got up and prepared to leave.

Wu Zu didn't know much about Yao Xitong, but he knew Xiao Bao'er and knew that Princess Beiliao was very smart and would only put safe people by her side. He put away his temptation and sincerely begged Yao Xitong for help.

He has three unshirkable responsibilities in this life. One is the patriarch of the Sima family, the second is to save the beloved woman, and the third is to take care of Xiao Bao'er. All three responsibilities are important to him, but he can't do them at the same time, and there are always trade-offs.

Hearing that Xiao Bao'er was going to find the underwater green boat, he believed that this was an opportunity, so he wondered if Yao Xitong was willing to help.

Yao Xitong fell into deep thought, according to Wu Zu's meaning, he had to take on the heavy responsibility of the patriarch of the Sima family in order to successfully find the underwater green boat and heal his internal injuries? After hesitating for a while, he said, "I am willing to take care of the princess and fulfill all her wishes." But there is one question you must tell truthfully, why did the king of Northern Liao die?"

Wu Zu was not surprised by his choice at all, and asked rhetorically: "Do you know why the princess doesn't want to inherit the throne of Northern Liao?"

The two looked at each other for a moment, neither of them willing to answer each other's topic, and the conversation fell into awkwardness again. Yao Xitong was about to leave, but Wu Zu succumbed.

The situation is urgent, time waits for no one, and if he misses this opportunity, he will return to the Central Plains in what year and month and put an end to the affairs of the Sima family. After pondering for a moment, he told the truth, but asked Yao Xitong to keep it secret, and he must not tell Xiao Baoer the truth.

After the death of the princess of Northern Liao, the king of Northern Liao drank heavily all day long, often drunk in the ice and snow, and his body was buried with hidden dangers at that time. Hearing that Xiao Bao'er would rather stay in Great Xia than return to Northern Liao, he was deeply stimulated and realized that if he continued like this, he would completely lose all the beauty in his life.

That's when he discovered that someone had poisoned him, and it continued for some time. Wu Zu helped detoxify, thinking that he would be fine after recuperating for a while, but he found that chronic poison and long-term bad living habits had already destroyed his body, and no matter how good the medicinal materials were, he couldn't rob people with Lord Yama.

Yao Xitong had already guessed that the King of Northern Liao was sick, but he didn't expect it to be so serious. No wonder the magpie couldn't find a prescription, it is estimated that his body was already ineffective at that time, and there was no need for a prescription at all.

He asked, "Can you find out who poisoned it?"

Wu Zu shook his head and said with certainty, "It's not Wan Yan Yu." ”

The most motivated person was the first to be excluded, and Yao Xitong could only smile bitterly. He asked again: "The reason why the king of Northern Liao died in your place is because his life is short?"

Wu Zu nodded, spread his hands and complained: "He is a hundred, leaving a mess for me to clean up." The most annoying thing is his precious girl, who never plays cards according to the rules, how can he take care of such a person?"

Yao Xitong understands Wu Zu's distress very well, it is not easy to take care of Xiao Bao'er, this princess has first-class ability to cause trouble.

"Hand her over to me, and I will be like a husband, a father, and a brother in the days to come, and I will treat her well. ”

Wu Zu nodded, handed over half of the jade jue to Yao Xitong, and said cautiously: "If you meet someone from the Sima family, just show them this half of the jade jue, and ensure that you are unimpeded in the green boat underwater." ”
