Chapter 38: Zhuang Shengxiaomeng

The Zhongxing Sword fell from Sima Zong's hand, and it was still lying on the grass like a piece of scrap metal, only the light cyan almost white sword body reflected the stars of the sky, making it look like it was glowing. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Xie An only felt that he seemed to see something for a moment before, and then everything quickly returned to calm, this night, the stars were shining, the cicadas were singing, and the fireflies were wandering, as if it was no different from usual.

But Sima Zong did have three sword marks on his body, but he just moved his mouth, and at that moment, even he didn't know what he had read.

Under the moonlight, the silver-haired man's eyes were red and he took a few steps back, left his sword in place, drew his sword, and attacked Xie An.

"Killed?" Du Yu asked Xie An.

Xie An shook his head, "Just capture it alive." ”

"Trouble." Du Yu complained, stepped forward to pick up the Zhongxing sword, flicked the sword with his knuckles, and suddenly a sword roared faintly, and the copper bell on the Qingyun Pagoda also sounded as if it was swept by a strong wind.

Although Sima Zong was repulsed, he still maintained his demeanor and said: "Today, I can be taught by the disciples of the immortals, and I am fortunate to have three lives." ”

"You have good roots, you are the only person in the Sima clan who can peek into the Xuan Realm, presumably you have the Penglai sword spectrum in your hand and have learned the best swordsmanship, but from ancient times to the present, the simpler the sword moves to kill, the better, what you learn must not be as simple as mine."

Du Yu rarely said a long word, and without making a move, he threw the sword back to Xie An, Xie An took the sword in the air, the sword unexpectedly felt very good, not light or heavy, compared to the one he admired Xun Xian before, it was sharp, and the sword was warm and moist.

Although the three scars on Sima Zong's body were no longer bleeding, his face was as pale as silver hair at the moment, and his eyes had regained calm, without fear, and said, "The seniors seem to look down on him. ”

Du Yu acquiesced, Sima Zong laughed instead, and gently stroked a strand of his silver hair, "Mr. thinks that he has lived for so many more years, but this king feels that you seem to have lived in vain, trapped yourself in this tower for many years, guarding the so-called Penglai mark, but I don't know that Penglai immortals set foot in the world, not only your master, before crossing the river, this king has white hair overnight, can pass through the Xuan Realm, and also thanks to a certain immortal, do you think you can kill this king if you want to?" ”

"Penglai Seven Stars, pivot for the sky, Xuan for the earth, Ji for the people, power for the time, Heng for the sound, Kaiyang for the law, shaking the light for the star, the king's master is shaking the light, Tianshu Tianxuan is empty, Tianji is your master, and the Qingyun Pagoda you guard was originally built by Tianquan, if there is no tower, Jiankang purple gas will disappear."

……

Du Yu was stunned and said: "It seems that you know a lot, Master has been looking for Shaoguang all these years, I didn't think you were actually his disciple, but Shaoguang is dead, if you want to find it, you are also looking for his descendants, the world is vast, I am afraid that you will never be able to find it." ”

"Let's go."

This time, it was Sima Zong's turn to be stunned, "Let's go?" ”

Du Yu said: "Your destiny should have ended, but because of someone's intervention, you survived, and I shouldn't interfere in your affairs, this is Master's admonition, I can care about everything in Jiankang, just look at this tower." ”

Sima Zong's eyes burned and said, "This 'someone' is Xie An?" ”

"Isn't it?" Du Yu glanced at Xie An, "From the moment he stepped into Jiankang City, everything quietly changed, this is the destiny of heaven, and you'd better not think about killing him, what if he is the reincarnation of your master?" ”

……

……

Du Yu didn't discuss with Xie An, and let Sima Zong go, although Xie An didn't have much interest in arresting him, at most, he was beheaded with Sima Yi, or imprisoned in a cage for the rest of his life.

Sima Zong's figure disappeared into the moonlit night, and he glanced back at Xie An, as if he was frightened by Du Yu's words.

Xie Anxin asked without any fluctuation: "Just the last sentence, you lied to him." ”

Du Yu said clearly: "Of course, how can you be the reincarnation of Shake Light, because he is related to Penglai Pavilion, so I can't kill him, only make up lies to scare him, let him sanitize your mind as soon as possible, after all, you can't beat him at all now." ”

"Mr. Du is very good at lying, and I was almost scared."

Xie An said that he was scared, but it was also a lie, he didn't believe in reincarnation, he clearly knew where "himself" came from, and he didn't belong to this world.

Du Yu returned to the bottom of the tower, brought Ruyi out, and let Xie An leave. Ruyi looked at Xie An, who was intact, and trembled with fright when he thought that he had almost killed Xie An when he helped Sima Zong.

"He's a disciple of Mr. Du, and he shouldn't have been sent by me," Xie An thought for a while, "but you, a villain, should be frank, so stay and take care of Mr." ”

Du Yu said lightly: "Then I promise that he will not hurt you again in the future." ”

Originally, it was best to kill this kind of person, but before Xie An heard a sentence from Du Yu that Ruyi looked a little similar to someone, in the stone cave of the East China Sea, Xie An had never seen the eyebrows and eyes of the man in red clearly, and he didn't remember it for a long time, but now that he is released, it can be regarded as selling Du Yu some face.

This night can be regarded as a shock, and he also encountered unscientific things, Xie An held the Zhongxing sword, and was a little dazed for a while, but when he looked at the sword body, he still saw that the golden words in his pupils had not faded, and he felt that it was all true before.

Back in the Tai Academy, Du Yu lit the lamp, Xie An took the Guan incense sent by Ge Hong, and the two sat opposite each other, with the Zhongxing sword on the case.

"Your eyes...... The inscription awakens, this sword is yours, if this golden word disappears, it will take some time, maybe one night, maybe a few days......"

Du Yu helped him look at his eyes and comforted him for a while, but for Xie An, this was simply unscientific.

"When you stepped into Jiankang City that year, the Star of the Sky Dome was indeed watching over you, although you told Guo Jinghong about the Milky Way of the Solar System, and told him that you don't believe in any star destiny, but I still have to say that your life is indeed different, because there are some things that no one in this world knows, only you know, so where did you come from?"

"Of course, you came out of Mrs. Xie's womb, but your soul may not be."

Du Yu said casually, looking at him with a strange excitement in his eyes at this moment.

Xie An smiled, "So what? ”

"No, just curious, where the hell are you from."

"No need to ask, I only left a poem for my husband, maybe I am the only one in this world except you or your master."

Xie An studied ink and wrote down the poem "Jin Se".

"Jin Se has fifty strings for no reason, one string and one pillar Si Hua Nian.

"Zhuang Shengxiao dreams of butterflies, and hopes that the emperor will trust the cuckoo in spring.

"There are tears in the pearl of the sea and the moon, and the blue field is warm and the jade is smoking.

"This situation can be recalled, but it was already clear at the time."

"If I'm interested, I'll ask about you and that person again, I'm not rare with this sword, it's not early, I should go to sleep, I hope that when I wake up tomorrow, the inscription in my eyes will disappear."

Xie An left empty-handed, he couldn't go home tonight, he led the little dragon girl back to the stable, the little dragon girl was very curious about his golden eyes, almost wanted to stick out his tongue to lick, like a cat and a dog.

A night of fright, Xie An didn't sleep well, he was woken up by birdsong early in the morning, and a bronze mirror found that even his eyes were not only still golden but also bloodshot, it seems that he can't go home today, otherwise he would have to make the city full of wind and rain, and now his every move is being watched, and as soon as he goes out, he is recognized by all kinds of onlookers, and this day is simply unbearable.

It has been nearly three months since the opening of the Tai Academy, and the money for the seminary has not been obtained, and he can't enroll students first, and now all the families are waiting, and no one dares to send children to him at present.

Ruyi cleaned up early in the morning, not only made Du Yu's meal, but even Xie An's share was not left behind, and Du Yu sat under the porch early in the morning waiting for him, and it could be seen that he also looked insomnia.

At this time, strong tea is needed to refresh their minds, and Ruyi holds the collected lotus dew to make tea for them, and then retreats far away in peace.

The poem written "Jin Se" in Du Yu's hand has been a little wrinkled by him, he is in the incense burning, and finally no longer looks a little aloof from the world, he looked at Xie An for a long time, and finally said: "Master once said that if you hear someone mention this poem to you, then the history of the established future will not exist, in fact, I have always been very unaware of the meaning of this sentence, and I don't know the origin of this poem. ”

"And this poem, he only knows the sentence 'Zhuang Shengxiao dreams of butterflies, and hopes that Emperor Chun's heart trusts the cuckoo', saying that this poem is that he inadvertently picked up the hand-copied waste paper of the sage in Penglai Island when he was a teenager, and he has been remembering it for a long time, and when he came to Zhongzhou, he picked me up, so he gave me the name 'Du Yu'."

Xie An's eyelids jumped, "Book Saint? ”

Du Yu was surprised: "The sage of calligraphy in Penglai Pavilion is a beautiful man, because of his good calligraphy, he is called the sage of calligraphy, and there are painting saints, poetry saints and others on the island, but the master only talked about it a little when I was a child, and I stopped talking about it when I was older, so I don't remember it very clearly, I just heard him say that there are many high-rise buildings there, and the top of the building seems to be in front of me...... Are you interested? ”

Xie An calmed down and said: "After so many years of legend, of course I am a little curious, just ask casually." ”

Du Yu took out the Zhongxing sword, "Let's talk about the person who gave you the inscription." ”

"First of all, I want to know who is the person who stole the sword and passed on my inscription." Xie An said leisurely, "Before you answer, I can only tell you that I met him on a stone island in the East China Sea five years ago, when he had stolen a volume of Penglai medical classics for many years......

As soon as he heard the word "thief", Du Yu couldn't help but say: "He is also very bold, he dared to steal the Zhongxing sword back then, and he dared to fight the idea of Penglai Pavilion." ”

“…… He passed me an inscription...... Then I killed the medicine man, fulfilled his wish, and left the island. ”

Xie An tried his best to tell him what happened at that time, and Du Yu was silent for a moment after hearing it: "Thank you." ”

"Will you save him?"

Du Yu gently stroked the central sword body, and said lightly: "No need to save it, his divine sense has now returned here with the inscription, he was seriously injured back then, and it has been the favor of God to prolong his life for many years with medicine." ”

"His name is Zhu Ye, he is my junior brother, he should have stayed in Qingyun Pagoda with me, but he was too seriously injured in a battle with the Buddhists, so he could only let him return to Penglai to save medicine and prolong his life, so he hated me, he felt that he was abandoned by me and my master, especially hated me."

Du Yu smiled lightly, as if thinking of the distant past, the indifference in his eyes faded little by little, and became a little sad, "He willfully stole the Zhongxing Sword back then, so that the last trace of vitality of the Han family was extinguished, and the master pressed this sword under the Qingyun Pagoda to wait for the arrival of a new dynasty, and now you get it by chance, this sword should be seen again, and there is no need to hide it anymore." ”

Du Yu returned the sword to him, "Okay, you already know what you should know, now you can kill me with your sword." ”

"I didn't promise him to kill him, and I can't kill you." Xie An shrugged, took the sword and weighed it, thinking that he had to find a craftsman to make the scabbard, since Du Yu wanted to give it to him, he would accept it, and at the same time did not forget to say: "In fact, the fate of the dynasty has nothing to do with the destiny of heaven, but people." ”

Du Yu shook his head, "You still don't believe in the mysteries of this world. ”

"All existence in the world is reasonable, I am in awe, but I do not blindly follow, everything is possible, but only man is the master of destiny."

"It's going to be a science fiction question, not history, history means the trajectory that has been experienced, and where we stand is at the end of history, but it's also a starting point, and after the starting point there are countless paths to the future, but now every decision we make, will change that path." Xie An drew lines on the table with tea, "That is to say, this poem is not mine, but if I don't write it now, it may not be able to exist in the future, but if it exists now, it is no longer in the future." ”

Du Yu seemed to understand a little, and he nodded abruptly, as if he had reacquainted himself with the young man in front of him.

Xie An couldn't help but ask, "However, how much history does your master know?" ”

Du Yu pondered for a moment and said: "Master said that he only saw the history of Jin, but he couldn't see it later, and I only knew about it, and I knew that you would be many years later...... But it's different now, isn't it? ”

"Because of permissions?"

"Yes."

Xie An smiled helplessly, "I feel more and more that every world that a traveler comes to is an experiment, so why only look for me, you should find someone smarter, at least ......"

Du Yu said lightly: "You have done a good job." ”

"Really?"

Du Yu said calmly: "If it weren't for that, I would have left Jiankang for more than three months to avoid Su Jun's rebellion." ”

Xie An has nothing to ask, seeing that the weather is still good, it is suitable to go back to sleep, wait for the abnormality in his eyes to disappear, and then return to his normal worldly life, compared to the ethereal Penglai Pavilion, he is now more interested in making money to build a school.

Before leaving the table, he suddenly thought of something, and asked casually: "Actually, this tower won't collapse so casually, right?" ”

"No, it won't." Du Yu smiled, "Master said that it will not be blown up unless it is blown up with something called gunpowder, but what is gunpowder?" ”

"Uh,...... It's still under development. ”

"It's interesting, I'm going to see it then." Du Yu didn't seem to have spoken to someone so freely for a long time, which reminded him of the scene when he was talking to his master, and he couldn't help but add, "Actually, there are treasures at the bottom of Qingyun Tower, and when you find the right time in the future, you will definitely be able to take a look, because it is a strange thing." ”

Xie An waved his hand, "Besides, it's really troublesome if you get entangled in something strange again." ”
