Chapter Twenty-Four: The Secret Whisper of the Secret Room
Biluo nodded in a very small way.
The two of them took a step to the left and right at the same time, secretly carried Qi, with force on their feet, jumped high, without pause in the middle, and jumped on the roof nearly ten zhang high, and the originally intact roof was suddenly washed out of a big hole, and a large piece of glazed tiles fell to the ground.
The two of them jumped to the ridge of the roof and looked around, and in the darkness of the night, it was empty, and there was nothing, not to mention people.
Biluo knows that Wushan's exploration skills are unparalleled in the world, and he will never make mistakes, he said that there are people on the roof, then there are really people, but now there is no ghost, it is really weird.
The two glanced at each other, and both saw confusion and embarrassment in each other's glasses, neither of them spoke, and they quietly fell back to the ground.
Fu Yu had already run all the way down from under the seat, and was crying bitterly with those broken glazed tiles at this time: these exquisite, beautiful and scarce King Kong glazed tiles were robbed from the Qi Qiu Kingdom back then, and now the Qi Qi Qi Kingdom has long been sealed, and it is definitely a piece less than a piece, who will not be heartbroken if it is changed?
How many times have this been!
Biluo and Wushan knew that they were in trouble, and before they could react, the two of them quickly slipped away under the pretext of going back to take a shower and wash off the fishy smell on their bodies.
The guards outside the palace came in a panic at this time, and as soon as they saw His Majesty the King holding his beloved King Kong glazed tiles and sobbing in a low voice, and thought that Her Royal Highness the Princess had just rushed out like a child in trouble, they knew what was going on, and they all pretended not to see it, and pushed each other out of the hall.
As soon as he left the main hall, Wu Shan said to Biluo: "There must be someone eavesdropping on the roof, and it is two people." ”
"I believe in Senior Brother, they can escape without a trace in an instant, and we can only say that their strength is far above us. Biluo nodded in agreement.
She would go to Baigu Peak every year to learn from Wu Gan, and she was considered a nominal disciple of Wu Gan, so she would call him like Wu Shan's junior disciples.
"Hmm. Wu Shan lowered his head and pondered, he was wondering when Tongbai Kingdom had such two more powerful characters, and what was the purpose of their sneaky sneaking into Chengtian Palace.
"Why don't we investigate again?" Suddenly there were two more people of unknown origin, and Biluo also felt uneasy, but Fu Ji seemed to be very unconcerned about this matter, and patronized and cried for his King Kong glazed tiles.
"Good. ”
"Are they cultivators?"
"No, I only heard their very faint breathing, and I couldn't feel the Yuan Qi flowing in their bodies. ”
"Will it be like you?"
"No, they don't have divine powers. ”
"Senior brother, do you think they are demons?" asked Biluo in a low voice. In her cognition, only demons have this kind of teleportation ability, and those very powerful demons may be able to, but they are trapped in the fairy forest and can't get out.
"It's not. Wu Shan shook his head again.
"It's not a demon or a demon, the god has shrunk to the sky, and has not appeared for a thousand years, and the immortals are wandering all over the world, happy and happy, the merman race basically does not live on land, is it the feather people?" Biluo said hesitantly.
"No matter how fast the average Feathered Race flies, it will leave traces. Wushan denied this possibility.
"What if it's a royal family? The royal family of the Feather Human Race has the blood of a god, and it is very powerful. ”
"No, it's really the royal family of the Feather People who are peeping, and I can also feel their divine power. ”
"There's only one possibility. Biluo's voice was much lower when she spoke, and after looking around and making sure that there were no outsiders, she said, "Only they will suddenly appear and disappear." ”
Wushan knew that Biluo was referring to the ghost clan, but there was a Nine Heavens Divine Fire Array in the ancient city, and all races that did not have the blood of the human race would break into the array, and they could be discovered in an instant.
"I'm not sure, let's go ask Senior Brother first. After Wushan finished speaking, he took the lead and walked to the Pu Temple in the palace.
Biluo hurriedly followed.
The shamans in the temple usually recite mantras in the temple every day to pray to the heavens for good weather and good weather, they are not good at fighting, but they have the ability to communicate with heaven and earth.
Wu Shan's idea was that if someone broke into the Chengtian Palace, it would definitely cause fluctuations in the qi of heaven and earth, and they might be able to detect it.
As a result, the sorcerers told them that there were people moving around the palace all the time, and that the qi of heaven and earth fluctuated so much that they could not tell which were the assassins and who were the guards.
Wushan didn't seem to be very disappointed, after thanking them, the two of them walked around the Chengtian Palace for most of the hour, and still didn't find anything, so they had to give up this idea for the time being, it seems that these two thieves are very alert, and they won't appear again tonight.
"Senior brother, I'm a little sleepy after a day of traveling. Biluo looked a little depressed and said to Wushan.
"Okay, I'll go first. Wushan is not a verbose person, and after saying goodbye to Biluo neatly, he left with his big sleeves fluttering.
Biluo returned to the dormitory, repelled the maids and guards, returned to the bed, flipped the mechanism, the bed board turned over with a whizz, Biluo instantly fell into the secret room, and the bed board returned to normal.
The mechanism is so cleverly designed that it doesn't make the slightest sound when it works.
Walking along the entrance of the secret room, there will be two intersections on the left and right every three zhang, and only one of them is correct, even if outsiders can find out where the mechanism is, and enter rashly, if they don't know how to distinguish the route, what awaits him will be a ruthless trap.
Biluo had already walked many times, and she could walk over with her eyes closed, she turned left and right, and soon came to the Tianji room.
The Nine Heavens Bagua Disc that can be counted as major events in the world is hidden in the Tianji Room, which is the core place of the entire Tongbai Kingdom, and only the descendants with the bloodline of the great god of Fuxi can enter. At this time, the door was locked, and there was a concave palm print next to it, Biluo raised his white palm, which was perfectly inserted, and the door slowly opened without making a sound.
Fu Yu was already waiting in the heavenly machine room, holding a cowhide in his hand, touching the beard of his chin, as if thinking about something.
"Father. Biluo made a gesture to the ambush.
"Well, you read this letter from Uncle Yiming first. Fu Ji changed his pompous daytime, as if he was a different person, and his speech and actions were much calmer.
"Senior Brother Shang Zhu brought it back?"
"Hmm. ”
"Is Uncle Yiming okay?"
"He's dead. ”
"Dead?"
He hanged himself the day after writing the letter. ”
Biluo nodded thoughtfully.
Fu Ji saw Biluo staring at the intact fire paint on the envelope, knowing her thoughts, and said, "This letter has not been opened, and Shang Zhu should not know the contents." ”
"You don't have to open the letter to see what's inside. Before taking the envelope to the pool, Biluo took out a white vial, uncorked it, and poured some red powder into the pool. Biluo took a log, stirred the water a few times, and when the powder was completely melted, she put the letter in the water and took it out in an instant.
Biluo walked up to the oil lamp and held up the letter, and in the flickering firelight, the thick cowhide envelope turned transparent, and the words in the envelope did not melt in water, but the letter paper had been folded, and the words were layered on top of each other, and it was impossible to see what was written.
Fortunately, Senior Brother Yiming folded the letter paper. Fu Ji let out a long sigh of relief, Yi Ming has always been cautious, he knows.
"What exactly is written in this letter, my father is worried that it will be leaked. Biluo frowned.
"Just open it and see it. ”
The content of the letter is very long, and the previous one mentioned is that Yiming expressed his longing to Fu Zhi, and at the end, he mentioned the key points:
Three hundred years ago, the descendants of Emperor Xuanyuan died violently overnight, the world was shocked, and everyone in the world thought that the bloodline of Emperor Xuanyuan was interrupted, but I accidentally found that the prince Ji Zheng actually had the bloodline of Emperor Xuanyuan, which was really strange. I don't know if it's true or not, so I specially ordered the merchant to take it back to Pangu City, and the senior brother can be identified.
At this point, there is no further follow-up to the letter.
Biluo placed the letter paper on the fire tree silver flower next to the wall, slowly burned it, and then took out a very powerful bottle of corrosive powder, melting the cowhide envelope into a puddle of water.
"Father, I find the contents of this letter very strange. ”
"Tell me about it. "Fu Yu has always known that his daughter likes to reason, and sometimes the idea is very fanciful, but most of them can deduce a cause and effect, and many times they can guess correctly.
"If what Uncle Yiming said is true, as long as he brings a word, let the sons go north instead of his father, and check the authenticity of the surnamed prince, which is much easier than asking Prince Ji Zheng to go south so much. With Uncle Yiming's ingenuity, he would not have thought of this. ”
"It's a letter he wrote in his own handwriting, there's no doubt about it. However, the thought that he hanged himself the next day is intriguing. "Yiming's death may involve a lot of things behind it, and Fu Yu will be so concerned, after all, he is from Jigu, and his status is not low.
"I don't think Uncle Yiming committed suicide. ”
"I think so too. It's a pity that we don't have an informant in Sitian Pavilion, otherwise we can know a thing or two. ”
"Didn't Senior Brother Shangzhu explain the situation at that time?"
He should have known something, but he wouldn't elaborate. ”
Biluo bit her lower lip and thought for a while before asking, "Father, could this be Jigu making trouble?"
Fu Xi was silent.
Although the machine valley was created by the ancestor Fuxi God, but now it is controlled by outsiders, and the Fuxi line has been expelled from the center of power, and they have no way of knowing a lot of confidential information.
"I've been keeping an eye on them, and it's impossible to say that they don't have the slightest ambition for Kyushu, otherwise they wouldn't have set up another Kyushu branch in Mukyo. Fu Xi sat down and said, "Your Uncle Yiming is nominally the same Jingmen as me, and even Shang Zhu, but whether he is under the control of the Divine Gate or not, it is difficult to say clearly, after all, this is what Jigu is best at." ”
"Attack each other. ”
"Yes. Therefore, there should be hardships for business assistance. Fu Zhi sighed slightly.
Biluo nodded and said, "Father, in fact, you knew about this at the beginning, the best way is not to let Prince Ji Zheng go south, whether it is in Haojing or on the way, you should find an opportunity to leave him." ”
"I tried, but it didn't work. Fu Ji looked at Biluo, how could she not think of what she said, "For this reason, I have taken up many hexagrams, and every hexagram shows that it is the will of heaven for Prince Ji Zheng to go south, and it is destined in the dark, and no one can disobey it." ”
"Could it be that Prince Ji Zheng is really a descendant of Emperor Xuanyuan?"
"It is also necessary to verify the identity. ”
"We have to speed up the pace, otherwise I'm afraid Jigu will rush in front of us. ”
"That also needs to be arranged without knowing it. ”
"I believe in Father. ”
"Well, if only it were that simple. ”
"Could it be that there is something else?"
"I'm afraid so. ”
"Isn't the demon clan sealed in the well of gods and demons, and they will never be reborn?" Biluo thought of the tragic death of a family of five that happened in Suzaku Town a few days ago, and the evidence was not supportive, but her intuition told her that this was what the demon clan did.
Fu Ji smiled bitterly again and again, and his thin but ruddy face wrinkled like a dried orange peel: "Back then, the Demon Supreme and his right-hand men were sealed in the Well of Gods and Demons by Emperor Xuanyuan, and some little devils escaped back then, and after thousands of years, these little devils have become quite powerful. ”
"So you're starting to come out and plague the world again?"
"Hmm. The demons are afraid of the descendants of the Xuanyuan Heavenly Emperor, because the bloodline on their bodies can restart the Xuanyuan Sword and then seal the demons in the well of gods and demons, so before the Demon Supreme breaks through the well of gods and demons, those demons who are floating in the mountains and seas must find ways to get rid of the descendants of the Xuanyuan Heavenly Emperor and never suffer in the future. ”
"No, if it's really the demons who are doing it, they just need to kill Ji Zheng, whether it's true or not, in this way, it's once and for all, and they don't need to go to great lengths to do so many things. ”
"Your guess is very reasonable, and I don't understand why they are so slow to do it. Either they knew that this so-called descendant of the Heavenly Emperor was fake, or they had learned some clues that we didn't know for the time being, and it was useful to keep him. In fact, it's useless to think about it now, all we can do is protect him and make another plan after his identity is verified. ”
"Yes, the retainers will send someone to protect him secretly. ”
"Good. I've been divining my hexagram for the past two days, but none of them have succeeded, and I originally thought that the arrival of Prince Ji Zheng messed up my hexagram. Fu Xi said as he spoke, suddenly showing a mixed smile.
"Isn't it?" Except for the descendants of the Heavenly Emperor, Bi Cheng couldn't imagine that there was anyone else in heaven and earth who had such great energy and could disturb the Nine Heavens Bagua Disk created by the ancestor of Fuxi.
"It's not. ”
"Are those two thieves?"
"Which two thieves?"
"The two thieves who were eavesdropping in the Fengluan Palace. ”
"It's not them. Fu Ji shook his head, he didn't explain it to Biluo, but repeatedly told her to be careful in the past few days, and then let her leave the Tianji Room first.
