Chapter 29: The Man of Love
Zhao Huaiyan and Zhu Xuanguang were standing on one left and one right, when Yan Chi put the book in front of them, the two of them looked down in unison, when they saw the three big words "Breaking the Secret Record" on the cover of Lan Juan's paper, Zhao Huaiyan's eyes widened suddenly, Zhu Xuanguang was strange and novel, and reached out to pick up the book.
As far as Zhu Xuanguang is concerned, all he has encountered and learned is the world that middle- and lower-level samurai have come into contact with, and he has naturally never heard of, never seen, and let alone read such high-level books as "Breaking the Secret Record".
He was extremely curious, and looked through it one step ahead of Zhao Huaiyan.
For Zhao Huaiyan, she was born in the royal family of Zhao State, and all she saw and learned was the art of the emperor, and the key to the emperor's art was two, one was the imperial person, the second was the imperial martial arts, the imperial people had to have their own talents, the heart had the world, and the world could be right.
But Zhao Huaiyan's air pocket has not been opened, and martial arts cannot be learned.
In order to make up for this shortcoming, Zhao Huaiyan studied all the martial arts secrets and fragments that could be collected throughout the ages.
She dared to let Yan Chi test her casually in the Taichu Palace, and dared to boast that she read poetry and books, learned five cars, and knew astronomy and geography, just because she was well-versed in ancient and modern times.
Those words were not boastful, but she did have the ability to do so.
In the palace of Zhao Guo, Zhao Huaiyan had read the hand-copied book of "Breaking the Secret Record", and she also knew that there was a magic object like the universal stone, but this kind of thing was too illusory, and she had never taken it seriously.
But obviously, listening to the meaning of Yan Chi's words, is there really a universal stone in the world?
Zhao Huaiyan's eyelashes moved, his gaze swept over Zhu Xuanguang's hand flipping the pages, and fell to the incense ding stove behind the dragon table.
If what is said in "Breaking the Secret Record" is true, then, according to Zhao Huaiyan's personal understanding, the universal stone is nothing more than a piece of baked cake in the Xiangding stove.
Isn't it obvious that you ask where a piece of biscuit is?
Baked cakes are nothing more than in the oven.
And this furnace is the one recorded in the "Breaking the Secret Record" that rules the four wildernesses and eight domains, dominates the world's blades, and seals Fanyou's sword emperor Jiuyang with the body of a god.
Therefore, the universal stone is likely to be the heart of the Sword Emperor Jiuyang.
Of course, this heart has long since died, but it is the ultimate product of the immortal qi and the condensation of the immortal body after the death of the Sword Emperor Jiuyang.
Then, if you want to find the universal stone, you must enter the Nine Road Island.
After entering Jiulu Island, you have to find the place where the Sword Emperor Jiuyang sealed Fanyou in ancient times, and only in that place will there be a universal stone.
Zhao Huaiyan crossed her arms and held her chin with her left hand, recalling the map of Jiulu Island that she had once flipped through.
But unfortunately, the map is an ordinary road chronicle, and nothing is written about the strange things next to it.
Then, if the predecessors did not plant trees, the descendants could not take advantage of the cold, so they had to rely on their own brains to solve these problems.
In fact, it is not difficult to analyze, the nine roads of Jiulu Island are the sword of the Sword Emperor Jiuyang, then, the location of his heart is either Jiulu Island, or the nine countries that these nine roads lead to.
And where exactly, it's really hard to say.
Since it is a divine object, then, in order for it to appear, there must be a god-like opportunity.
And this opportunity is hard to come by.
A month ago, Zhao Huaiyan bumped into Yan Chi in Pengji Guangzhou, at that time, Yan Chi went to Pengji Guangzhou, that is, he landed on Jiulu Island, looking for the universal stone, but that time, probably heard about his movements, Qin Prince Zhi and Qi Prince Wen brought people to follow, and the quasi-princes of the three major powers, and the future princes of heaven gathered on Jiulu Island at the same time, causing a lot of shocks.
Yan Chi wanted to find the universal stone, but he didn't want to have Qin Zhi and Qi Wen to follow him, he landed on Jiulu Island, and after meeting these two people, he went down to the island and lived in Pengji Guangzhou, and handed over the secret investigation of the universal stone to the dark guard commander Qinghai.
And as soon as Yan Chi left, Qin Zhi and Qi Wen also left.
Yan Chi has secret guards, and Qin Zhi and Qi Wen also have them.
Yan Chi stayed in the Yan Patrol Pavilion, Qin Zhi stayed in the Qin Patrol Pavilion, and Qi Wen stayed in the Qi Patrol Pavilion.
The nine countries have their own national tours in Pengji Guangzhou, which is mainly because of the reason why Jiulu Island leads to the nine countries, so Pengji Guangzhou is the product of the joint governance of the nine countries.
Since it is the co-governance of the nine countries, all kinds of world activities are held here.
The world-famous Billboard is also held here.
And because this is the co-governance of the nine countries, there is no prohibition on entering and leaving the city, so Zhao Huaiyan bumped into Yan Chi that day, which was really a fate that could not be avoided.
Zhu Xuanguang looked at the "Broken Secret Record" page by page, as he turned the pages one by one, the surprise in his eyes became more and more obvious, until finally, he finished reading the whole book, and the look of horror was full of eyes, he suddenly looked at Yan Chi, and asked in surprise, "Is there really such a divine thing in the world?" ”
Yan Chi nodded and looked at Zhao Huaiyan.
Zhao Huaiyan pretended to take the book in Zhu Xuanguang's hand and looked down.
While she was reading, Yan Chi asked Zhu Xuanguang, "After reading it, do you think the universal stone really exists, where will it be?" ”
Zhu Xuanguang touched his chin and pondered for a moment, and then pondered, "According to ancient records, the word universal is based on the ability of the ancient god Sword Emperor to control the world's blades, because the Sword Emperor can control the world's blades, so later generations call him the Almighty God, since this word is for the Sword Emperor, then, the universal stone must also be related to him." And the stone homophonic corpse, thinking about it, the universal stone refers to the bones of the Sword Emperor Jiuyang, or his immortal tears after years of precipitation, or something condensed by immortal energy. ”
"And those who have heard the legend of the Demon Sealing Knife on the Origin Ice Continent know that the sword of the Sword Emperor Jiuyang is the nine roads of the Nine Road Island, then, the Sword Emperor is either on the Nine Road Island, or in Pengji Guangzhou, or in one of the nine countries, so if the prince wants to find this universal stone, he has to rummag through these eleven places, but unfortunately, the shape and appearance of the universal stone are not recorded in the ancient books, so how do you know if the thing you find is a universal stone?"
Yan Chi listened to Zhu Xuan's analysis of the Tao with his head on his head, his eyes showed appreciation, thinking that this person could be favored by Chang Sansheng, accepted as an apprentice, and taught him ghost steps, he really has some talent, he can martial arts and literature, and after learning ghost steps, he can't see what storms he has in the rivers and lakes, it can be seen that this person has an upright heart, sincerity and kindness, and he is a talent that can be created.
Yan Chi nodded and said with a smile, "Your analysis is very correct, just because you know that there is a universal stone, and you also know that it must be related to the Sword Emperor Jiuyang, but you don't know what shape and appearance it is, so this palace goes to Pengji Guangzhou several times a year." ”
Zhao Huaiyan, who was pretending to be reading a book, raised his head when he heard this, looked at Yan Chi and said, "The prince really believes that there are such divine objects in the world?" ”
Yan Chi raised his eyebrows and asked him, "What does Mr. Zhao think?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan said with a smile, "The Primordial Ice Continent is a beautiful and rich continent, there are many unknown strange people on this continent, if you want to say that there is such a creature as a god, I really don't know, but the gods, even if they are real, they are not easy for mortals to get, even if they are lucky, it is good or bad, it's hard to say." ”
Yan Chi raised his fingers slightly, tapped on the tabletop, and his thoughtful eyes fixed on his face.
Zhao Huaiyan said again, "Why does the prince want to find such a divine object? Your Yan Kingdom is already very powerful, there is no need to rely on these legendary and illusory artifacts to improve your national strength, instead of spending time looking for this thing that may not exist, it is better to strengthen the country and strengthen the country. ”
Yan Chi sighed slightly, "What Mr. Zhao said is very right, but this palace is not looking for this universal stone, not for a strong country." ”
Zhao Huaiyan asked, "That's?" ”
Yan Chi turned his face sideways, looked at the outdoor with mottled window flowers, and looked at the rising sun from the east, which was struggling with the sea level from east to west, showing his edge in full swing, and looking at such a vigorous sunshine, Yan Chi thought of the woman who was less than seventeen and should have tried her best to bloom her life like this vigorous sunshine, but she, because of him, not only could not bloom, but was going to wither.
Yan Chi's eyes showed pain, and the arc of his handsome side face slowly tightened his strength, he pursed his thin lips, and said without concealment, "This palace is looking for a universal stone to treat Zhou Xiaochan." ”
"Huh?" Zhao Huaiyan was dumbfounded, "Can the universal stone still cure diseases?" ”
Yan Chi said, "I don't know if I can, I have to give it a try." ”
Zhu Xuanguang said, "It is written in ancient books that the universal stone has the power of all things, and in my opinion, it should be able to cure diseases." After speaking, he asked again, "Prince, what kind of disease does that Zhou Xiaochan girl have?" ”
Speaking of this, the pain in Yan Chi's eyes intensified more and more, and there was an extremely strong sad aura all over his body.
Zhao Huaiyan blinked.
Zhu Xuanguang also blinked.
The two of them glanced at each other, and they both read a message in each other's eyes - this girl Zhou Xiaochan is likely to be the prince's sweetheart.
