Xiao Yi faced this smooth stone stele, and obviously made a difficulty: "I don't know martial arts, how can I climb it?" ”

"What then?" Xiling Yue was in distress again.

Xiao Yi thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you step on my shoulder?" ”

"Can you stand it?" Xilingyue was quite worried.

"Take off your armor, and you'll probably be fine." As he spoke, he jumped onto the pedestal, half-crouched down and patted her on the shoulder.

Xi Lingyue remembered that they had played similar games when they were children, and they were no longer hypocritical, so they hurriedly took off the heavy armor on their bodies, stepped on his knees and stepped on his shoulders, and slowly stood up straight with the body of the monument.

With Xiao Yi, who has a long body, as a "stepping stone", Xilingyue is much taller all of a sudden, and you can see the carving on the upper part of the stele. As she got closer, she realized that the line carvings of the flowers and plants were very familiar, and they seemed to be the same as the flowers and plants on the handle of the cane.

The inner petals of this flower are thick and straight and few, the outer petals are thin and curved and dense, and the outer petals are tightly supported by the inner petals, like a small umbrella with a lanceo upside down. When Xiling Yue was investigating the bloody case of Master An Cheng, she had rummaged through the scriptures in Anguo Temple to find the eight heavenly dragons, and accidentally saw the description of this flower-

Manzhu Sawa, also known as Mandala Hua, the other side of the flower, has been recorded in many Buddhist scriptures, called it the flower of the heavenly realm, symbolizing the celestial phase, the stars, thoughts and love.

Symbolizing the stars? Xilingyue suddenly came to the spirit, and when she counted it, there were exactly seven engraved on the stele! It's just that these seven manzhu sawa are not carved according to the direction of the seven houses in the south, but are carved vertically from top to bottom, showing a straight vertical line.

Xilingyue was puzzled in her heart, but she still clicked on the seven manzhu sava in turn according to the method of Li Chengxuan and Yuan Zhen, but there was no mechanism at all, and the stele body was as usual, and no words came out.

She touched all corners of the monument again, but she didn't find anything strange, and was about to climb higher, when she suddenly stumbled under her feet, Xiao Yi couldn't stand it!

Xi Lingyue hurriedly motioned to put her down, and asked with concern, "Brother Yi, are you okay?" Am I too heavy? ”

"It's fine." Xiao Yi rubbed his shoulders, "Have you found a clue?" ”

Xiling Yue was deflated: "No, it's just that there are a few carvings of Manzhu Sawa on the stele, which seems to be a little strange." ”

"Manju Sahua?" Xiao Yi thought thoughtfully, "Are there any plants in this cemetery?" ”

"Huh? How I didn't expect that! Xilingyue's eyes lit up, "Brother Yi, help me find it, where is the Manzhu Sawa planted!" ”

Xiao Yi was a little embarrassed: "This Qianling is too big, and you may not be able to find it for a while." ”

Xilingyue was very sure: "No, the clue must be near the wordless monument." She said as she painted, "Brother Yi, you look for the north and west, and I will look for the south and the east." ”

Without waiting for Xiao Yi to answer, she had already run in the direction of the door on the east side of the wordless monument.

Xiao Yi looked at her back as she hurriedly ran away, her eyes flashed with an inexplicable luster, and she turned around and walked in the direction of the Sacred Monument to the west.

Xiling Yue ran to the door in one go, but she searched for a long time, and she didn't see any shadow of Manzhu Sahua. She thought of the hint of "Seven Nights in the South" again, and ran to the south of the wordless monument to look for it, but still found nothing.

She returned to the wordless monument again, wanting to put her armor back on, and her eyes inadvertently swept over the Shusheng Monument opposite. Faintly, she saw Xiao Yi standing in front of the inscription, not knowing what she was thinking.

The early spring night was accompanied by a bright moonlight sprinkled all around him, which seemed cold and lonely. The night breeze in the mountains was sudden, blowing the hem of his robe and rolling with the wind, just like a manzhu sawa under a moonlit night.

Xiling Yue looked at his rolled robe through the Shinto, and suddenly thought - Manzhu Sahua, also known as the other side flower! And the "other side" of the wordless monument is not the one on the other side?

Her heart moved, and she immediately ran to the stele pavilion opposite, looking up at the Sage Monument. Unlike the wordless stele, which is built with a single stone, Gaozong's Shusheng Ji stele is built with seven stones, from top to bottom: a stele top, five sections of the stele body, and a stele base! It corresponds to the seven manju sawa on the wordless tablet!

Xiling Yue was overjoyed, and hurriedly dragged Xiao Yi and said, "Brother Yi, I thought of it!" The Manzhu Sawa on the wordless tablet does not refer to the flowers and plants planted, but to this monument of the Holy Age! ”

"Really?" Xiao Yi's expression was faint.

"Yes, Manju Sawa is also called the other side flower, which symbolizes the celestial phase, the stars, longing and love! The celestial phase and the stars represent the Son of Heaven, and longing and love are naturally the intentions of the Empress Wu! The other side of the wordless monument, isn't this it!

Xiling Yue urged him urgently, "Quick, quickly find out if there are any clues related to the Preface to King Teng's Pavilion!" ”

"Okay." Xiao Yi responded, but the person didn't move, I don't know what he was thinking.

Xiling Yue had already begun to look at this monument of the Holy Age. It is the Empress Wu for Gaozong to sing the praises of virtue and erect, creating a precedent for the emperor to set up a meritorious monument behind him, the stele is engraved with the merit text written by the Empress Wu himself, the book of Zhongzong, recorded the merits of Gaozong's life, and there is no other hint in addition.

But Xilingyue was not discouraged. If she was still suspicious of this location when Li Chengxuan proposed the Qianling, then after seeing the dragon pattern on the other side of the flower and the wordless stele, she had already determined that this was the place pointed by the Tongtian cane.

And these two steles are also very interesting, the east and west are opposite, just a pair, but the specifications are different. If you talk about the size of the stele, Gaozong's sage stele is far less large than the wordless stele of the martial queen; But when it comes to the stele pavilion, Gaozong's is nearly twice as high as that of the martial queen.

What does this mean exactly? Empress Wu built her wordless stele so high, why did she build the stele pavilion very low? Does she want to be above Gaozong, or is she willing to be subordinate to him?

Xilingyue felt very puzzled, and began to look at the two stele pavilions, and suddenly found that there were many unusual: the general stele pavilions are all four corners, with the majority of the spires, and occasionally you can see the top of the heavy eaves. It's like the wordless stele of the martial arts opposite, and the stele pavilion is the four corners of the spire.

The stele pavilion that guards the monument of the sacred era, the structure is too complicated, not only the roof is an octagonal cornice, but also a three-story pattern, and there are stairs next to it to lead directly to the upstairs.

To be exact, this is no longer a stele pavilion, but a pavilion.

Wait, the pavilion?

The four-rhyme poem at the end of "The Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" suddenly flashed in her mind: Where is the emperor in the pavilion now, and the Yangtze River outside the threshold is empty.

"Brother Yi," she unconsciously tugged Xiao Yi's arm and pointed to the eaves, "Is this stele pavilion more like a pavilion?" ”

Xiao Yi looked around and nodded slowly: "Yes." ”

And the Shusheng Ji Monument in the pavilion is a symbol of Gaozong, who is also the emperor!

Where is the emperor in the cabinet now? Xilingyue suddenly brightened, turned around and ran to the stairs, and went straight to the second floor!

When she got to the second floor, she found that the third floor was a dark pavilion, and the stairs were impassable, and she needed a ladder to go up, which was more like a hint!

"Brother Yi, come up quickly, lend me another shoulder to step on!" Xiling Yue shouted down the stairs.

Xiao Yi answered the sound and went upstairs, walked to the entrance of the third floor of the dark grid, and lifted her up like a square cai.
