Chapter 32: The Secret Room of Zhaoming

After Ye Chuan returned to the inn, he asked the shopkeeper for a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and went upstairs to greet Su Lingdao: "Senior sister!" Come do me a favor! ”

When Su Ling heard the news, he came to Ye Chuan's room, put him on the paper, and asked, "Senior brother, do you want to write a letter?" ”

Ye Chuan smiled: "Don't ask first, help me study ink." ”

Su Ling responded, stepped forward to help, Ye Chuan recalled, groped, and slowly drew the general shape of the "crocodile scissors", although Su Ling was introverted, he was very smart, and saw that this was a machine, so he said: "Senior brother, isn't this a harvesting machine?" Why did you suddenly remember this? ”

Ye Chuan told Su Ling about his experience in the morning, Su Ling sighed slightly, and said: "Gambling aside, this kind of machine can not only facilitate the local people, but also bring us a reasonable income, it is indeed a good thing, but your pattern is too simple, and it is still difficult to really build it." ”

Ye Chuan said: "This is just a general drawing, and there are detailed drawings for each part, I need to gradually disassemble this machine according to the general drawing, but it will take a lot of effort!" ”

Su Ling said: "There is nothing to do left and right, I will accompany you to refer to the details." ”

Ye Chuan said with a smile: "With the help of my junior sister, it will be like a tiger with wings and a fish in water, the best!" ”

At that time, in Kongming Valley, Ye and Su both read a lot of books, although they had their own emphasis, but when they occasionally asked Song Yingxing for advice, they both listened together, so they both understood what they learned from each other. Ye Chuan couldn't remember many details of this machine, so the two of them simply redesigned it, striving for each part to be simple and firm, and before they knew it, it was night, and the two of them didn't eat a grain of rice, and they didn't feel hungry.

When Ye Chuan finished drawing the drawings of the last part, he found that it was already dark outside the window, and the two couldn't help but look at each other and smile, put away all the drawings, and went downstairs to ask for some food to eat.

After dinner, Ye Chuan suddenly said: "Senior sister, I think of an interesting thing in "Heavenly Creation" again, let's start making one later, okay?" ”

Su Ling said: "It's naturally good, but there are no materials at the moment, how to do it?" ”

Ye Chuan said: "I don't need many things, a pair of chopsticks and a few pieces of rice paper are enough!" ”

The two returned upstairs, Ye Chuan used his internal strength, rubbed his hands, and rolled the two chopsticks into dozens of thin wooden strips, and built a shelf more than half a person high, the top was hollow, tightly wrapped with rice paper, the bottom was closed, and two wooden strips were crossed, and a candle was worn in the middle. ”

Ye Chuan said: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's go to the edge of the Ling River for a while, write our wishes on the lamp and let them fly, what do you think?" ”

Su Ling was overjoyed, biting his lip and nodded.

Ye Chuan asked the shopkeeper for a cage, put Kong Ming lanterns, fire knives, flints, pen and ink and other things into it, and then set off to go out.

The bright moon hangs high, the night breeze is cool, the two of them walked by the river for a long time, came to an open place, Ye Chuan took out the Kong Ming lantern, lit the candle at the bottom, and Su Ling and Su Ling on each side, dragging the lamp stand with one hand, and holding the inscription with the other hand, Ye Chuan wrote "The world is peaceful", and Su Ling's is "The beloved is well".

The air in the lamp was heated and expanded, faintly giving birth to the rising force, swaying slightly between the two, the two stood opposite each other through the Kong Ming lantern, although they couldn't see each other's written wishes, but they could see each other's faces, Ye Chuan looked at Su Ling under the faint light, and was a little stupid, Su Ling looked at him and finally stopped dodging.

After a while, the lift of Kong Ming Lantern was already enough, if you didn't use force, it was almost difficult to pull, the two of them let go of their hands, Kong Ming Lantern was free, jumped up suddenly, and then slowed down and flew up steadily.

The two of them looked at the Kong Ming lantern rising higher and higher, and suddenly saw one rising in another place, Su Lingxi said: "Senior brother, look, there are also people praying over there." ”

As soon as the words fell, five or six more Kong Ming lanterns rose, and Ye Chuan said with a smile: "It seems that there is also the custom of lighting sky lanterns in the Mid-Autumn Festival here, and our lamps have company." ”

It didn't take long for all kinds of Kong Ming lanterns to rise under the eaves, round and square, red and yellow, nearly 100 flew upwards together, the scene was very spectacular, Ye Chuan looked up for a moment, and couldn't help sighing: "Hey! Our lamps are a bit rudimentary by comparison......"

Su Ling took his hand and said in a low voice: "But that lamp was made by you yourself, and it carries our wishes, in my heart, it is better than all lights." ”

Ye Chuan's heart warmed, and he held Su Ling's little hand tightly, unable to speak for a long time.

The two of them interlocked their fingers like this, snuggled together, and watched the many lights disappear at the end of the canopy.

After Liang Zhaobai seized the Zhaoming Sword in the Taiqing Palace that day, he immediately changed his appearance, wrapped the Zhaoming Sword in black cloth, and quickly fled the capital, all the way non-stop, running day and night, and finally arrived in Luyang on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Luyang City is located in the territory of SC, not far from the Valley of Thousand Machines, Shen Mo instructed in his last secret letter to Liang Zhaobai that no matter whether the sword is successful or not, he must come to the "Tianfuju" in Luyang afterwards, and someone there will answer him.

There is no curfew for the Mid-Autumn Festival, most of the people in the city are outdoors to pray for blessings and admire the moon, after Liang Zhaobai entered the city, he did not dare to stop, asked people about the location of the Tianfu Residence, and rode away with a horse.

The street was bustling, the house was naturally deserted, and there was only one listless man on duty in the middle of Tianfu, who kept tapping his fingers on the table, and looked like he was about to fall asleep.

Liang Zhaobai stopped his horse, took the Zhaoming sword, and walked in, the guy couldn't help but be startled when he saw him coming in a hurry, and all the sleepiness was gone, he stood up and stammered and asked, "Big ...... Uncle is going to live in the hotel? ”

Liang Zhaobai walked to the counter, slapped the Zhaoming sword wrapped in black cloth on the table, and said in a low voice: "I'm Zhao Feibai, go and call the people waiting for me, hurry!" ”

The guy was stunned, the naΓ―ve look on his face was swept away, and he quickly turned around and entered the back hall, and after a while, a young man in white greeted him, saw "Liang Zhaobai", and opened his mouth and said: "Senior brother, you have worked hard to be a Taoist priest for five years, and today you can finally call back your original name." ”

Zhao Feibai saw that he was talking leisurely, and knew that most of the Qianji Valley had been taken down by Shen Mo, and said: "It doesn't matter if it's hard, it's just that I haven't seen Master for many years, and I miss it very much." ”

The young man in white was Zuo Feiting, Zuo Feiting smiled, his eyes fell on Zhao Feibai's hand, and said, "Senior brother, congratulations on your new achievements!" ”

Zhao Feibai said: "Say a few less hippie words, it's important to return to the master!" ”

Zuo Feiting also knew that he was in a hurry to hand over the Zhaoming Sword to Shen Mo, so he stopped laughing with him and ordered the guy to prepare two horses and march towards Qianji Valley at night.

The two of them only cared about beating horses and hurrying, and did not talk, and when the sky was bright, they finally arrived at the mouth of the valley of Qianji Valley, and the disciples of Huolin Hall on duty saw that Zuo Feiting had brought a living person back, and knew that it was Zhaoming Sword who had arrived, and they were overjoyed and hurriedly let them go.

Zhao and Zuo walked through the outer valley, parked their horses at the galloping horse, and walked into the inner valley. went straight to the main hall Qianji Palace, entered the hall, and called a maid to go in to report, not long after, Liu Feiqing arrived first, Zhao Feibai was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for five years, my sister has grown so tall, and she is becoming more and more beautiful." ”

Liu Feiqing said: "Senior brother Jing said some coaxing words, I am tall, when did I become beautiful?" The beauties in the capital are like clouds, and my senior brother has stayed for so long, I'm afraid that I'll get tired of seeing it. ”

Zuo Feiting said: "Senior sister, don't be dissatisfied, senior brother just saw me, but he didn't praise me for being tall." ”

Zhao Feibai said: "Are you embarrassed to say?" That day, you pretended to be Ye Chuan and made a big fuss in the Taiqing Palace, and I really sweated. ”

Zuo Feiting smiled: "Yes, Senior Brother has seen me a few months ago, but he hasn't seen Senior Sister, I shouldn't be jealous." ”

Liu Feiqing said: "Okay! Let's talk about it later, Master is about to arrive. ”

As soon as the words fell, the Blood Qilin and the Blood Phoenix walked out of the back hall, and the three disciples stood in a row, knelt down respectfully, and said in unison: "The disciples have seen the master and the master. ”

The blood qilin let out a "hmm" and said, "Feibai, you're back." ”

Zhao Feibai presented the Zhaoming Sword with both hands and said, "Yes!" In vain, I was fortunate not to be dishonored! ”

Shen Mo walked to him, took the Zhaoming sword, untied the black cloth wrapped around it, pulled it slightly, pulled out half of the blade, and looked at the sun.

The morning sun was rising, the morning light was slightly cool, a faint halo was refracted on the body of the Zhaoming sword, the blood qilin was silent for a long time, and suddenly let out a breath and said, "Eighteen years......"

Everyone knew that he remembered the past, and no one dared to speak out, and after a while, the blood qilin closed the scabbard with a sigh and said, "Feibai, I have suffered you all these years." ”

Zhao Feibai said: "If you can work for the master, it's too late for the apprentice to be happy, why do you have a bitter word!" ”

The Blood Qilin nodded, and said, "Feiqing, Feiting, summon the left and right envoys, the five hall masters!" ”

Liu Feiqing and Zuo Feiting took the order and left.

Most of the people who practice martial arts got up early, and as soon as the news of the arrival of the Zhaoming Sword spread, many disciples in the sect rushed over from all directions, gathered in the square in front of the Thousand Machine Palace, and talked non-stop.

Yang Zheng on the left, Feng Bukong on the right, Qinglin, Chilin, Huolin, Jin Lin, and Fenglin came one after another, Zhu Fengcheng, Duan Changsheng and Xu Danyang saw Zhaoming Sword, and they all showed greedy looks.

The blood qilin waited for everyone to arrive, and said: "I taught Zhao Feibai, a disciple of Qinglin Hall, who has been dormant in the Taiqing Hall for more than four years, and finally lived up to expectations and recaptured the Zhaoming Sword for my Holy Sect. ”

Everyone said, "Congratulations to the sect master!" Congratulations to the Sect Master! God bless my Holy Sect to revive the Song Dynasty and unify the rivers and mountains! ”

The Blood Qilin said: "Please ask the Master of the Golden Lin Hall to lead the way for us." ”

Zhu Fengcheng had already forgotten the pain of losing his son at this time, his face was radiant, and he stepped forward and responded: "Obey the orders of the sect master!" They glanced at Xu Danyang and Duan Changsheng respectively.

In fact, the Zhaoming secret room is at the bottom of this Qianji Palace, and the entrance is the seat in the hall, after the blood qilin settled in the Qianji Valley, he has visited no less than three times, but now all the leaders of the sect are there, as the head of a sect, it is not good to do it himself, so he asked Zhu Fengcheng to do it for him.

Duan and Xu were one left and one right, and at the same time touched the mechanism in the house, the main seat in the north slowly shrank into the wall, revealing a square entrance, Zhu Fengcheng was shy, and took the lead in getting in, the blood unicorn held the Zhaoming sword, strode closely, and everyone followed in, under the stone steps, there were fires and torches, Zhao Feibai, Liu Feiqing, and Zuo Feiting each took a handful to illuminate everyone.

After going around a few corridors, and finally came to an open circular stone room, in the stone room, there is a stone pillar more than half a person high, a total of twelve layers up and down, each layer is engraved with different patterns around it, in front of it is the library door made of stainless steel, everyone surrounded the stone pillar in the middle, Zhu Fengcheng said: "Sect Master, this stone pillar is the keyhole of the vault, and the stone carving on it becomes the 'Qiankun lock', which is composed of twelve lock plates, and corresponds to the twelve patterns on the hilt of the Zhaoming sword from top to bottom. ”

Zuo Feiting said: "The sword has two sides, how to distinguish it?" ”

Zhu Fengcheng said: "Zuo Shaoxia doesn't have to be anxious, you must have seen this Zhaoming sword, its blade is not completely symmetrical, but one side is flat, one side is toothed, just aim the toothed side at the library door, insert it from the gap at the top of this stone pillar, and then rotate the lock plate one by one." ”

Zuo Feiting said: "The things designed by this old guy Lutong are really exquisite! Master, please order you to unlock this Qiankun lock for you, and ask Master to give me a sword! ”

The blood qilin nodded slightly, held out the Zhaoming sword, Zuo Feiting handed the torch in his hand to Zhu Fengcheng, took the Zhaoming sword with both hands, came to the stone pillar, and just wanted to draw the sword, but heard Zhu Fengcheng say: "Wait! ”

Zuo Feiting frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhu Fengcheng said: "After the Zhaoming sword is inserted, you can dial the lock plate, and drawing the sword is the command to unlock the lock, but if you accidentally dial the wrong one, hehe...... The vault door will be locked within this month, and it will only be opened next month, if it is wrong next time, it will trigger the strong acid and explosives in the vault, and the treasure and jade seal will be destroyed in one fell swoop, Zuo Shaoxia, be careful! ”

Zuo Feiting couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and said with a forced smile: "Thank you Hall Master Zhu for reminding me!" ”

The Blood Qilin said: "Flying Court! ”

Zuo Feiting trembled, turned around and said, "Master! ”

"Just be bold and do it."

Zuo Feiting hugged his sword and said, "Yes!" Turning around, he took a deep breath, pulled out the Zhaoming sword in its entirety, aimed at the door with the toothed side, and slowly inserted it through the gap at the top of the stone pillar.

As the Zhaoming Sword went deeper inch by inch, the sound of "click" and "click" kept coming from the stone pillar, and when the Zhaoming Sword did not enter the handle, there was a crisp sound, and it seemed that the living teeth inside had been firmly bitten together with the saber teeth.

Zuo Feiting took back the torch, and according to the pattern on the hilt of the sword, he flicked the lock plate down layer by layer, and when he turned to the eighth, he was already sweating profusely.

In the stone room, except for the sound of the lock plate, there was no noise, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the stone pillar, for fear that something would go wrong with Zuo Feiting.

Zuo Feiting wiped away the beads of sweat on his face, flicked it down again, and finally straightened all the twelve lock plates, checked it several times, and never dared to draw his sword.

Zhao Feibai looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but say, "Senior brother, otherwise let me come!" ”

Zuo Feiting hurriedly said: "No need! ”

Zhao Feibai had already taken a step, so he had to retreat, Zuo Feiting finally checked the pattern on the stone pillar, held the hilt of the sword, and pulled out the Zhaoming sword suddenly.

Rumble! ……
