Chapter 52: The Red Wall

Lu Jiangfeng calmly pushed open the library. Li Jiangwei had already raised her hand to block the possible flying dust. Unlike the library of the shrine where Li Jiangwei lived, it was much cleaner. There was no musty smell in the air, but a nice smell of rue vanilla.

In the past, rue herbs were used to be tucked between the pages of books to prevent silverfish from biting. The books in this library are much better than the others.

With the help of "Seeing and Hearing", Li Jiangwei quickly found the location of the picture book.

After Lu Jiangfeng sighed, he took out a soft handkerchief and took out the picture book on the cabinet through the soft handkerchief. The oldest of these books are about 800 years old, and they are used to touch the books with a handkerchief for fear that the sweat on their hands will cause damage to the ancient books.

"I didn't expect that the collection of books in this shrine is not as good as that of Taibu."

The book of the Taibu Department has cast a spell, and even after thousands of years, it is still like a new book. And the books in the library of the Dragon Shrine have turned yellow and brittle. Every movement that touches a book needs to be slow and careful, and there should be no urgency.

"Does my sister still have a veil?"

"Yes."

The picture book is bound in a folded warp binding, and when unfolded, it is a large strip. Lu Jiangfeng couldn't fully unfold it alone, so Li Jiangwei took a hand on the side.

The picture book slowly opens, revealing a world that is different from the present.

"In ancient times, most people ruled the country with witches, and even the Central Plains was no exception. And at that time, in addition to the political officials, there were also spiritual officials. In addition to the king, there is also the king's temple. The royal shrine and the rest of the shrines are managed by the supreme god, and the king is appointed by the god. After the fall of the god lord and the complete rule of man, the monarch temple disappeared, leaving only the shrine. Taibu Temple appeared and took over most of the functions of the Jun Ancestral Hall. ”

Lu Jiangfeng checked the image information on the picture book while facing Li Jiangwei's unfinished business outside the library.

"At that time, the big and small sacrifices had to go through the Taibu Temple to ask for divination before they could make follow-up preparations. And the sacrifice is a national event, so the Taibu Temple has a good status. Until the troubled times came, the war was together. Many of the old orders were broken, and although the sacrificial matters were still important, the court was more biased towards people. ”

After listening to this, Li Jiangwei said casually: "After the first great chaos is over, it will be the Hubei Dynasty." ”

"Yes. The Hubei Dynasty established Taichang Temple, and rituals related to people, such as royal weddings and funerals, were transferred from Taibu Temple to Taichang Temple. Oh? This part is interesting! ”

Li Jiangwei followed Lu Jiangfeng's line of sight and found that the picture book showed two people attacking the other. The portrait of the person who was attacked had two semicircles of red and yellow painted on his shoulders.

"At that time, most of the priests were dressed in dark clothes, and the left and right shoulders were embroidered with sun and moon patterns."

That paragraph means...... The priest was killed? ”

Lu Jiangfeng nodded heavily.

"Can my sister know who is chasing and killing?"

"Judging by the way he dresses, he doesn't look like a spirit person."

Li Jiangwei carefully looked at the image on the picture book twice, and then let "Seeing and Hearing" float in front of her, using her ability to leave the image in the picture book on "Seeing and Hearing".

"Check it out when you get back?" Li Jiangwei suggested.

"Okay."

"Sister......" Li Jiangwei looked at the pattern on the picture book and asked with some doubts: "We tracked down the dragon god because of that boy." But this information is difficult to link with the identity of the mysterious person. ”

The two of them are one of the few people who can escape after confronting the mysterious man, and they know no less about the mysterious man than the others. Li Jiangwei can guarantee that the attack used by the mysterious person is absolutely impossible to be a spell, and it is difficult for her to link the mysterious person with the spirit official of two thousand years ago.

"In ancient times, in addition to the spells used by my sister, were there any other special powers?"

"How?"

"Could there be other unknown outer gods?"

"Perhaps." Lu Jiangfeng replied flatly: "That line, we have to check it sooner or later." ”

After reading all the patterns in the picture book in his hand, Lu Jiangfeng and Li Jiangwei carefully put it back together.

"My sister wanted to find the identity of the person who wrote the prayer through that blessing. Then follow the identity of this person, investigate the clues of the inheritance of the technique, and find the identity of the mysterious person? ”

Only those who are active in the spiritual realm have access to the prayer message, and it is estimated that the person's identity is related to the spiritual realm. Even if you can't lock it, you can know the source of the power of this system. ”

"After checking the map, we can only wait for the priests?"

"Yes......" Lu Jiangfeng said wistfully: "There are too many text messages left, and there should be no results in a short period of time." You write these things down in the "Sights and Stories", and go around. Watch more, in case "Seeing and Hearing" can give new news? ”

Li Jiangwei nodded, her eyes fell back on the newly opened picture book, and the picture on it was transferred to "Seeing and Hearing".

The patterns recorded in the picture book are all the same, but the difference is the time recorded. There will be subtle differences in the patterns recorded by different dynasties. The further back you go, the greater the difference between the portrait and that of 2,000 years ago.

After Li Jiangwei finished memorizing the first three books, she left the library first. The Xunlong Shrine was also the first shrine of the Xunchao Dynasty back then, but the size of the area was completely incompatible with the magnificent grandeur. At least it is very different from the magnificent appearance imagined by Li Jiangwei.

During the walk, looking at the walls that have gone through wind and rain and the traces of erosion on them, Li Jiangwei felt a lot.

"Sorcery and Magic......

Li Jiangwei once again remembered the scene of meeting the mysterious person on the day of Shangyuan, the crimson magic array, the sharp blade that appeared in the sky, and the white hair under the cloak.

From Li Jiangwei's point of view, this person can't be connected with magic at all. His power system, no matter how you look at it, is magic. Unless the dragon god also used magic in the first place...... But is it really possible for the dragon god to use magic, a power that sounds different in style?

Zhai Lianzhen's sealed soul jade, the six beads that do not match the soul jade, these are related to the spirit world.

Li Jiangwei suddenly remembered the star curtain and broken stars mentioned by Lu Jinxi when exchanging information that day.

"The spell is divided into six beads, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and wind...... So what kind of starry should it belong to? Wind? ”

Li Jiangwei muttered, muttering and shaking her head.

Suddenly, Li Jiangwei, who was strolling, paused, and her face showed a look of horror.

"That's not right!! Wrong!! ”

Based on Lu Jinxi's familiarity with the star curtain, the star curtain should belong to the category of spells. Judging from Lu Jiangfeng's attitude that day, the Star Curtain is not a traditional technique. Perhaps the starscreen itself is more magical!

So is it easier to find clues by tracing the origin of the starscreen?

On that day, Lu Jinxi mentioned that the disappearance of the broken star was terminated, and it should be affected by some external force. So the external force, will it be the black feather?

Li Jiangwei looked around at the quaint Xunlong Shrine, standing outside the second gate, looking at the red wall of the outer courtyard.
