"You mean you're coming for the Zhou family's secret room?" he said with a light breeze on his face, but he was faintly restless.

"When I first picked up Zhou Tianyuan's jade slip, there was indeed a mention of the Zhou family's secret room on it, but in my opinion, this secret room is not the real location of the key secret, because the mantra recorded on it is very similar to a set of exercises I know, so I suspect that Zhou Tianyuan's secret is likely to be just a book of exercises that I don't know the grade. Yan Yan neither nodded nor denied it, but frowned slightly from time to time, looking up and down "Tang Tai" from time to time.

Tang Tai secretly screamed in his heart, hurriedly adjusted his emotions, and said, "Is there a record of the location of the Zhou family's secret room, or are you also looking for it." ”

"Also?" After all, Yan Yan was also scheming, he raised his eyebrows, and quickly noticed that something was wrong.

"Who else?"

He was guessing that Yan Yan didn't know about the death of Zhou Tiandu, the second son of the Zhou family, so in his faintly uneasy heart, at the same time, he was still extremely calm on the surface, and he couldn't see anything abnormal, and said in detail: "I see that the second son of the Zhou family is also looking for the whereabouts of the secret room, but as the bloodline of the Zhou family, it is very likely that he knows the whereabouts of the secret room. ”

But he couldn't have imagined that the real murderer of Zhou Tiandu appeared in front of him like a fake.

Yan Yan sneered in his heart, but he was still willing to listen to his clumsy speech, looking at the mellow words, and the sky-like words in front of him, he suddenly reached out and touched the body of "Tang Tai", and saw that he was startled, and his body subconsciously stayed away from Yan Yan.

"Since you think so much about me, I'm embarrassed to hide something from you, I killed people. He was not annoyed by the actions of "Tang Tai", he just said lightly in front of the "Tang Tai" whose face was getting more and more ugly, which was enough to make his quibbles pale.

"You mean?"

"Zhou Tiandu. ”

He said with a smile, the already exhausted "Tang Tai", seeing like a little mouse quickly slipped away from under him, suddenly got up and slipped towards the ground outside the attic, and suddenly the smoke and dust rose everywhere, the ground shook and shook, and he saw that the original calm ground collapsed and demolished, and below the ground, "Tang Tai" did not want to urge the only remaining spiritual power in his body with all his strength, and the darkness was all around, but he was very purposeful towards the Qingshui City Palace.

But he didn't know that in the attic far away, Yan Yan never moved half a step, looking at the crack on the ground with a smile, and suddenly looked at Qingshui City seriously, falling into deep thought.

Under Qingshui City, there is a damp and gloomy underground secret room

Relying only on a few bull's head lights on the wall, faintly maintaining the last light of this secret room, there was no one around the secret room, silent, empty space, only a small piece of place placed a few ornaments

Vintage mahogany tables and chairs, badly handmade ceramic teacups, and a helpless Buddha statue in the center.

"That old guy Yanyan, I didn't expect that after so many years, my scheming is still so heavy. He gasped, but there was no trace of joy on his face, and his hand holding the teacup seemed to sink into the pattern of the cup noodles, and his face was solemn.

"It seems that in the past few days, the person Tang Tai is investigating is Yan Yan, I am afraid that the exercises he is talking about are the secret exercises of the Zhou family that Tang Tai Xiaoer said, and now with his intervention, it is even more difficult to get the whereabouts of the Zhou family's secret room from him. ”

"If you want to get the whereabouts of the Zhou family's secret room, you have to start with Zhou Yusheng, the only son of the Zhou family, but now that emergencies are frequent, Tianbao Pavilion Lin Chufeng will unexpectedly appear here Now I think about it, there are many doubts, if it is simply to escape the pursuit of Tianbao Pavilion, relying on his talent, he can completely escape to the sect. It will not be exposed, and we will hunt it down in Clear Water City. Tang Tai also sighed a little worriedly.

But in the other voice hidden in the body, he sneered and said: "Then there is only one way now, since they have obtained the whereabouts of the Tang family's secret room, then let them find it." It's just that we have done too much of this kind of thing, and in the end, the sandpiper and the clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman, maybe it will be us. ”

When there was an inexplicable sneer in his sight, the cold black stone eyes on the dusty Buddha statue that had been in front of the table, but when no one noticed, the red light flashed, and suddenly it was covered with a red light, and if you looked closely, it was like two fires burning with blazing light, burning in those lifeless eyes.

In the morning, the sun came out, and an ancient temple still slept in the darkness under the shade of tall trees. Thousands of flowers gradually become charming eyes, covering the winding path, and when you come to the meditation room, you feel even quieter. The long sound of the bell chime brings a profound sense of Zen in the silence of all voices, making people's hearts more calm.

"I hope that the ancestors of the Zhou family can bless the last heirs of my Zhou family. The foreign surname He Yingcheng Zhou's family was glorious in the past, and there was no way to repay it, so he could only rely on the remaining few years to help Zhou wholeheartedly for the rest of his life. ”

In the long and long bell, I saw a white-haired and red-faced old woman kneeling down in front of a memorial tablet reverently, the blue sky is facing up, the incense that rises in the curling air, but it covers the old woman's gaze, but it has not burned out, no flowers and no wine to pass the Qingming, the interest is like the wild monk who tirelessly knocks on the wooden fish around him, his eyes are like the rain in December, Xiao Suo is godless.

The wild monk just blindly recited the Zen horn, watching the old woman kneel down and get up every time, the sound of the silent chanting of the Zen horn in his mouth became a point heavier, and the sound of hitting the wooden fish was also suddenly heavier, as if the pair of godless eyes, there was no joy and anger and empty sadness, only the poetry and the distance.

"Lord He, today's worship time for the Purple Fire Pass has arrived, please go back. The time was quiet for a moment, and the silent temple suddenly heard the sound of the wild monk, and with the wooden fish that stopped, the sound of the bell stopped abruptly at the same time.

"There's Master Lao. He Gu bowed slightly, and really withdrew from the temple silently, looking at the ancestral hall of the Zhou family that was full of cobwebs and the plaque was broken in half, there was only silence in her eyes, and the memory was like water poured into the palm of your hand, no matter if you spread it out or hold it tightly, it will still flow clean from your fingers drop by drop.

"Master Zhao, please. Not long after He Gu left, a calm and elegant voice sounded softly, and a middle-aged man followed.

I saw that the location of the ancient temple that should have displayed the tablet of the Zhou family was only a towering statue of Maitreya Buddha, the Buddha body was golden, the white and graceful five Susemru, the eyes were clear like the sea, but he was leisurely lying on the Buddha platform for worship, holding a green and white gourd with the same height as the height, with a kind face and a good smile, as if laughing at the people in the world.

"Sure enough, only illusion is true or false, I have never seen such a subtle illusion in Beiyu. ”

The sound of the silent temple suddenly came out with a wanton laugh, looking at everything around him like a dream, and he was amazed.

The Buddha statue that was originally stationary, with a cold glint in his eyes, and his eyes like copper bells were full of brilliance and rejuvenated, but he saw that he was bright and bright, and he smiled.

"You're the third person in all these years to see through this illusion in this Clear Water Realm. ”

This illusion can often make people lose themselves, but it is the most sincere emotional sustenance in the heart, and if you are not careful, you will be obsessed with the beauty of illusion in this sea of peace, so as to be at ease. The middle-aged man said lightly.

"No, no, since there is sustenance in the heart, how can people not know that this is an illusion, people are ruthless, but since there is ruthlessness, there is love. Maitreya Buddha suddenly shook his head and said with a smile.

"But since you can see through the illusion, it also shows that you have some sustenance in your heart, and say what you are here for. ”

The wild monk looked at the eyes, took out a piece of wooden fish from his sleeve again, and knocked it without distraction.

......

"Donor, the time for the incense offering of the Purple Fire Temple has passed, please go back. The wild monk standing on the side once again ruthlessly ordered the expulsion.

"Then there's Master Law. The middle-aged man clenched his fists and said.

"Lord, what do you think of this person? The wild monk who didn't say half a word, changed his words, but asked a little sharply.

"The cultivation is not high, but the anger on the body is too heavy, and it gives people the feeling that it is like a muddy grain of sand in the calm sea, which cannot be seen through and cannot be touched. ”

The scene of Maitreya Buddha behind him dispersed, and now there was only one white-haired old man in the empty ancient temple with a fairy wind and bones, looking at the dilapidated temple in front of him, looking at the wild monks beside him, his eyes were solemn, and he said with anxiety in his eyes.

Between the world and the earth, if the white horse passes through the gap, it is all of a sudden.

Another three years

It is enough to make a country that is already crumbling, and the storm is approaching.

In Qingshui City, how can there be the original prosperity, the street scene is depressed, those who walk through the busy streets of the city, shallow like the memory of the past, the ancient streets, the rain splashing all over the sky, the wind is cold, the city is still prosperous, the lively city in the memory, in this rainy day, is the cloud and smoke of the past, after all, it can only become an indelible pain in people's hearts.

In the early morning, there is no bustling city traffic on this wide street. The roads are lined with dead leaves that have gone on and out, and the leaves decorate the street with their fleeting years.

"Drink!"

I saw a forest behind Qingshui City, and suddenly a deafening shout came out, and I saw that his delicate arms, with the sound of cheers, cut down the wooden stakes in front of him with a overwhelming momentum.

Long black hair that falls down to the shoulders. His slightly upturned little face, like white porcelain, flashed with delicate and transparent light in the sun, and his eyes were as black as paint, and he was now nine years old Zhou Yusheng.

And in the palm of the hand stained with royal jelly, with the flying wood chips, the stake that looked thick sank down for three points, and on the surface of the annual rings, there was a clear palm print.

It was only with the sound of disordered breathing that followed, his face turned pale, and he suddenly felt his brain sinking, and the scene around him swirled as if it was about to be turned over, and his body stumbled and fell heavily to the ground.

"The breath problem, or the breath problem, you have understood this first trend thoroughly in the past three years, but every time you adjust the breath, your pulse will be unstable, do you have something on your mind this year, will you be obviously restless when adjusting the breath. ”

Mr. Zhao sat on the rock pile as usual, holding the green and red gourd in his hand, frowning slightly, and finally shook his head helplessly.

"It's nothing, it's just that I feel like I've been having a little insomnia lately, so I'm not energetic. The boy simply sat down on the ground, touched his heaving chest, picked up a small piece of grass from the corner of his mouth, and looked up at the sky.

"In the past three years, I have also seen your hard work, but will you push yourself too hard, and it should be time to relax, after all, it is not your fault that Qingshui City has become like this. Mr. Zhao said lightly.

"But if it weren't for me, my parents wouldn't have heard from me, and I wouldn't have caused the people of Qingshui City to be displaced and have no fixed place to live. The boy smiled and shook his head, but the forced smile made him look tired.

"If you do this, you will only allow yourself to live in the moment, guilt will only lead your cultivation to a fork in the road, and for the sake of the people around you who love you, you must break through this layer of inner demons in all your feelings. Mr. Zhao replied like this, at this time, he took out a piece of jade slip from his waist in his pocket, the jade slip was small and square, and it was quite old, and when a faint green light bloomed from his palm, it exuded a warm and familiar feeling.

"I picked it up from where your father was lost, and now it's time to return to you. ”

A cloud of red light slowly flew towards Zhou Yusheng with the jade slip, and landed on his hand, the cyan green light disappeared, leaving only a faint fragrance of the jade slip.

"Go back and take a good look, you have to give yourself some time, too. Mr. Zhao waved his sleeves and flew into the air, leaving a fluttering admonition.

Night

"Huainan. In the brightly lit Qingshui City Palace, the young man stood outside the window, looking up at the flickering starry sky, but his mouth kept repeating these two words.

But listening to the silent whistle, not far from the forest, a white dove crossed the dawn, crossed the Qingshui City buildings, and fell to the window of Zhou Yusheng.

"Xiao Hei, send this letter to Sister Zhao and tell her to wait for me in Huainan in three years. ”

Obviously it is a pure white carrier pigeon, but it was naughtily called Xiao Hei by Zhou Yusheng, although it can't see the resentment towards Zhou Yusheng from its nondescript tone, but it still sinks a little from the proud red bird crown, and it can be seen that there are still quite a few complaints about Zhou Yusheng.

He stretched out his hand and put the folded scroll on Xiao Hei's feet, picked up the curled body, and forcefully forwarded together, facing the sky.

"In the past three years, every time I went to the previous place, I didn't encounter the vein of Qingshui City, it seems that this kind of opportunity is enough once in a lifetime. He suddenly sighed with some pity.

It turned out that in the past three years, he had already determined through a lot of literary classics in the library that the scene three years ago was the scene in the book of the storyteller he was lucky enough to see, and it is said that the people who saw these last time had become immortals.

Of course, Zhou Yusheng, who already knows the story of the immortals, will not have much interest in the immortals in it, this flying heaven and earth in the eyes of mortals can only be the kind of immortals that can only be found in books, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it is just that the cultivator has cultivated to a certain point and will become the legendary flying heaven and earth.

In the silent night sky, a few insect chirpings suddenly sounded.

The movement was not loud, but it clearly reached Zhou Yusheng's ears, and those few weak cries roared like thunder.

He suddenly came back to his senses from the window, looked at the wheat waves under the starry sky, his heart moved, he found a coat to put on his body, and paced out of the room.

The figures under the wheat waves move with the wind, the wind blows suddenly, and under the blue starry sky, it is as if dyed red by the sunset, bathed in golden maple leaves.

"A little further, a little further. There is always a voice in my heart that instigates me to walk forward, telling myself with the sound of hot springs like water that as long as I keep walking in the direction of my heart, I will come to the other side of a fairyland occupied by a clear spring, a beam of starlight, and a ball of fireflies.

The stars are constantly walking around at different times and in different seasons, the only constant is the direction of the earth, and those who look at the stars must know where they are in order to find the stars that are hiding

When the cool breeze blows low across the water, a narrow thin silver foil suddenly appears on the water

"The kid is here. ”

The child wanted to witness the beautiful scenery in his heart, looking at the clear spring that seemed to be reflected in the galaxy, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he saw that the black in his pupils gradually faded, and his bright eyes only had a round black outline, and he looked at the world around him a little white.

On the other side of the abyss, the ghostly walking crowd, flickered through the day, and the mountains on both sides of the abyss, where the scorching gaze illuminated, were somewhat distorted.

"Look, there's another man. "At the entrance of the abyss, a group of monsters with no hands, no feet, or three heads and six arms, fish heads and snake bodies pointed at Zhou Yusheng's place.

"It seems to be a human race this time, hehe. Looking at Zhou Yusheng's gaze, the eyes hiding in the dark were full of greed, like smelling prey in the night.

"It seems that you haven't forgotten the lesson after so many years, how did you get picked up by the Terrans. In front of those cold eyes, one looked like a human race, but the left sleeve was hanging on one side, and the other hand was clutching a halberd with three pointed ends.

"Big brother fought in the sea of people, countless casualties, countless elites of my sea clan died in this sea of broken intestines, they are in the spirit of the sky, if I can't avenge them, how can I be worthy of the loyalty and courage of those dead martyrs. "Coming from the darkness, the source of the cold voice, the human head and fish body, the ethereal body, swayed against the scaly fishtail, wiping the ground, but no sound fell.

He looked at Zhou Yusheng's gaze, bitter with edges and corners that had been worn away by the years, and his tone of displeasure and anger carried a hatred engraved in his bones.

"The battle of the third child, in fact, we all know it. After so many years, we have become such a person, not a ghost, and now we can survive, and we still have to rely on the relief of the human race, which is really sad. ”

"Three years ago, I saw that child in this place, but I was in a hurry, and before I could see the sea of broken intestines, it disappeared. The one-armed youth said.

"Did you notice that the kid seemed to be staring at us all the time? The young man with the head and the body of a fish suddenly said in some surprise.

Just when the two teenagers were talking, Zhou Yusheng also felt two unkind eyes, and his eyes followed the feeling all the way, just when the two teenagers turned around in surprise and looked at each other, gradually, the remnant star closed his sleepy eyes and disappeared in the morning sky.

"Can you see us?" Walking from the abyss, the young man with the broken arm stopped in the place where he was about to leave the dark area, the starlight shone through, and no shadow was seen from his body, the eyes without any focal length, carefully looked at Zhou Yusheng, and suddenly let out a puzzled sound.

"I didn't!" Zhou Yusheng was a little hairy when he was stared at by the young man with a broken arm, and when he looked at the young man in front of him, a feeling of resistance rose.

"Young man, why do you lie to yourself. If you can see us, why pretend you don't know? Or are you afraid of us?" the young man with the severed arm chuckled, trying to step out to show him what he really was, but stopped because of the starlight that separated the two worlds.

"I'm not afraid of you, I'm afraid of the man behind you who looks like a fish. Zhou Yusheng shook his head desperately, these aliens are still a species that has only appeared in literary classics for him, and now when he sees real people who can move, sometimes he says that he should be curious than instinctively afraid.

"It's a race that should have been exterminated a thousand years ago, and it makes sense that it shouldn't be here. Zhou Yusheng pointed to the human head and fish body behind the young man with the broken arm and said.

"What do you say, stinky boy! Our sea tribe can ......."

"The third one!" the boy with the broken arm shouted loudly, stopping the mermaid-like boy from continuing.

As soon as the young man with the broken arm shouted, the anger that had just surfaced immediately fell, and he reluctantly walked to him from behind him, glanced at Zhou Yusheng, and reluctantly withdrew his gaze.

"Since Childe can see me, it means that we are destined. It seems that the prophecy three hundred years ago refers to you, Childe. But ask the boy is the rest of his life, the rest of his life in the past and this life, and the rest of his life in this life. ”

"I don't know what you're talking about!" stood in front of him and shuddered, he couldn't stand his sharp gaze, so he just glanced at him, and no longer looked at him.

"Childe, you can see it at a glance!" the young man with the broken arm smiled and said disapprerovingly.

On the abyss ground, a mountain rock suddenly became violently turbulent, and the wind from the north blew up, rolling the mountain rocks on the cliff one by one, and with a torrent of mountain rocks like wheels, it leaked out from the top of the cliff.

Looking at the past from Zhou Yusheng's perspective, the entire surface of the abyss seemed to tremble.

There was a great fog, and the whole fog shrouded the mountains but it was also majestic, boiling, and as the starlight gradually dissipated, revealing a gray and mysterious veil.

Thousands of miles away, there seemed to be a dazzling blue ribbon wrapped in a thick fog, flowing quietly, although far away, but from time to time it shot light, like lightning.

From a distance, it is extremely mysterious, the blue light is bright, and the gray galaxy is like a huge track, floating this piece with blue ribbons, and it is lifeless.

"There is the Broken Intestine Sea, that is, the Great Jin West Sea that should have disappeared from the battle of the sea of people. He looked at the gray galaxy looming in the mountains, and then looked at Zhou Yusheng, who was hesitant, and suddenly said with a very solemn face.
