At the bottom of the well is a different world.

Rao is Yaocang couldn't help but admire, this place is simply too fantastic. Passing through the water layer to the bottom of the well, there was a door open on the wall of the well. There was fresh air outside the door, and a radiant treasure mirror was placed in the very center of the palace behind the door. The palace is very decorated, and it is illuminated by a treasure mirror, but it has a bit of a fairyland. She looked around and caught a glimpse of a huge turtle shell in front of the mirror, the patterns on the turtle shell were intricate and magnificent, and the color was as black as black iron and smooth, mysterious and full of fantasy.

Yao Cang's heart was relieved, he stepped forward, bowed to the turtle shell, and said loudly: "It is really helpless for the junior to rashly break into this place. When my father was there, I told you that I must find the old man and show you this sword, and explain that you will know its meaning after you have seen it. ”

After waiting for half a night, the turtle shell didn't move at all. Yao Canggang was holding a sulk because of Zhang Liu's delay, and now he has been waiting for a long time, and he suddenly felt a little cold. After finding a seat next to him and sitting down, his anger became heavier and heavier, and the temperature around him dropped a few points in an instant. At this moment, the turtle shell suddenly trembled, and there was a sneezing sound, and then a huge bird's head and a black snake with a tongue stuck out came from the front and back of the shell, accompanied by an old but unserious voice: "Which thief dares to disturb the old man's dream?" ”

Yaocang was speechless. Looking at the "monster" in front of him, who is not a turtle, a bird, a bird, a snake, or a snake, he is angry and funny. Feelings are asleep, no wonder they don't care about people.

She clenched her fists and explained her intentions again. The old turtle stared in confusion, touched his beard and nodded, only to be shocked when he saw the sword, and suddenly lost his sleep.

"Do you know where this sword came from?" The old turtle squinted, and a bird's face smiled meaningfully.

Yao Cang shook his head. She came here in disguise this time, originally on the orders of her father, who died early. However, this Hancang sword, she really doesn't know where it came from, although she has often been by her side since she was a child, no one has ever mentioned it.

When the old turtle saw it, he smiled even more happily: "You don't even know the origin of this sword, how can you beat those rabbit cubs in the Book of Mountains and Seas?" Now that the old man has woken up, let alone the little ghosts who like to stinky nonsense. ”

Yaocang has a black face. Why does she always encounter some unreliable people and monsters? It seems that you have to find a monk to ask for a talisman to keep you safe. Wait, "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"? In other words, the strange book that Pei Jue said is real.

The three "unreliable people" guarding the well sneezed in unison, touched their noses, and thought that the evening breeze was too cold and cold.

The old turtle felt that the temperature around him seemed to be even lower, so he hurriedly didn't dare to continue, coughed dryly, and said, "Little girl, your origin is not ordinary. Counting the age, it's almost the same as the old man. ”

“……？” Really? But she's not eighteen yet.

"As for the origin of this sword, the little girl can think about it carefully, but the old man can't tell you. When you remember, you will know the truth. As for what your father asked, the old man naturally wanted to help. After speaking, he transformed into a delicate and peerless black iron pendant and hung it on Gu Ning's neck.

Then, he continued: "This fire mirror is a gift to an old man for a friend, and it is brilliant and can talk to the person in the mirror. It was originally used to relieve my boredom, but now it is not easy to carry it with me, so I will give it to the little girl. ”

Yao Cang was a little surprised. The first time we met, this old monster was so generous. The monsters she used to think were not like this, but what happened recently often subverted her cognition. Also, about the mystery of himself......

She bit her lower lip, but she didn't mean to dwell on it, put away the fire mirror, and turned to leave without saying a word. The surrounding golden environment suddenly dimmed, and the green rays emitted by the jade at the bottom of the well were included in the dark iron ornament around her neck.

Back on the ground, the damp clothes made her shiver. But soon, the dark iron absorbed all the moisture, and the dry clothes gradually warmed up.

"Welcome back." Pei Jue said with a smile.

Yao Cang nodded, in response. Helplessly, he looked at the two people lying on the ground, raised his sword and stabbed them. Zhang and Liu had a pair of sleepy eyes, and it took a long time to understand what was happening. She said lightly: "Pack up your things tonight, and you will go back to Beijing early tomorrow morning." ”

The refreshing effect of this sentence was immediate, and they quickly got up and rushed back with Gu Ning Pei Jue. When passing by the hut, the sound of a baby crying made people's hairs stand on end, Gu Ning's expression was heavy, and a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart.

When they arrived at Liu Zhang's house, they hastily cleaned up the house and finally had a place to stay. Yao Cang handed the two of them a token and instructed: "Take this to the palace to find Manager Li, just say that you have returned from the mission ordered by the first emperor, and now you want to reunite with your family as soon as possible." ”

Liu Mazi said: "Listen to this, does Your Majesty plan to go back to the palace with us?" ”

She said: "My trip this time is mainly to investigate the people's situation in the Jiangnan area. Now that the old man's promise to me has been fulfilled, it is better to get on the road as soon as possible. ”

Liu Zhang and the others glanced at each other, knelt down together and said: "Your Majesty has great kindness to us, and the two of us will do our best to die to repay Your Majesty!" ”

She waved her hand: "You don't have to be so polite. After thinking about it, he added: "For the post of prime minister, there is already Pei Jue; The position of the general is still uncertain. If General Zhang wants to regain his former majesty, it is inevitable to enter the barracks. ”

Zhang Lime nodded, indicating that he understood.

"But who is Pei Jue? Is our old Liu shrewd? He continued.

Pei Jue's face darkened. Yao Cang coughed lightly and said, "This is Pei Jue Pei Xiang." After that, he pointed to Pei someone.

Liu Mazi had already guessed it, and smiled without saying a word. Zhang Cripple was so stupid: "I looked at this thin skin and tender meat, and I thought it was His Majesty's favorite concubine." ”

Now it was Yaocang's turn to face black. Pei Jue smiled and said: "It is a blessing for Pei to become His Majesty's favorite concubine, I don't know ...... Your Majesty"

"I don't want to." She interrupted.

"Oh? Is it? But that night's ......" means a lot.

She coughed dryly twice and changed the subject: "It's not early tonight, the two of you rest early and prepare to go on the road tomorrow." "Turn around and go. Pei Jue hugged his fists to Zhang Liu and quickly followed: "Xiao Cang, ......"

Liu Zhang, the people who eat melons, looked at each other and smiled, tacitly.

At this end, Pei Jue pulled Yao Cang's sleeve and said solemnly: "Ah Cang, I want to ask you something." ”

Yao Cang turned around, a little surprised. I've known him for so long, and it seems to be the first time I've seen him so serious. She nodded.

"I want to ask...... Five years ago, in the War of the Three Kingdoms, which shocked the world, how did you, as a child under the age of 12, lead the three armies to quell the rebellion? He looked at her with an inquiring look in his eyes.

"That's not what I did. It's just an unexpected heavy snowfall, isn't it very clear in the history books? Her eyes wandered, and she didn't look at him.

He said quietly: "Ah Cang, don't lie to me. I was involved in that war, and I saw ...... It was supposed to be a battlefield of fighting, but suddenly it snowed, tens of thousands of people were wrapped in wind and frost, and when everything subsided, the ground was covered with corpses frozen in ice. If it's snowing heavily, how can it be done to such a degree? ”

She was shocked and looked up at him.

"You don't have to ask how I survived...... In the past, I was already a dead corpse. His eyebrows were lowered, as if he were recalling the distant past. Yesterday I accidentally saw you condense ice cubes with cold cangs, and I thought that you were also present during the war, so I asked this question. If you don't want to answer...... Don't force it. ”

He turned his back. For a long time, so long that he thought she would not answer again, the empress's low and pleasant voice sounded in his ears, accompanied by a sigh: "I don't remember." Yesterday was just a small test, but I suddenly realized that after so many years, I still can't control the cold cang. ”
