Section V. Switches

Zhuge Xun, who returned to the Red Moon Pavilion from the Gate of Time, didn't see anyone else, nor did he see the Red Moon. Ling should be busy with her own affairs, I heard Long Ye say that this world conference is a complete nullification of ZERO's power, and Ling's life will not be so easy in the future. However, through this world conference, Ling should have thought it through. If there is no ZERO on the civilian side, how long can it be supported. Kate, it's best not to let yourself meet him, from the heart out, I don't want to get close to that perverted and arrogant pureblood, although the bullet in my heart has been removed, but for Kate Fryne, it's really ......

Since Red Moon is not in the main building, it must be in the gift shop in front. I'm not in such a hurry to find her, let's take a shower first.

Zhuge Xun simply took a shower, changed his clothes, and when he went out, he saw that Hongyue had not come back, so he walked to the library on the third floor, wanting to find a book about metasequoia and see if there was a way to solve the current situation of the eight circles of metasequoia.

Every time I came to the library on the third floor, Zhuge Xun always felt incredible. From the ground to the ceiling, there are books here, but in fact, this library has more books than you can see, and both Kate and Red Moon have told themselves that this library is a dimensional space, just like the gift shop in front.

Zhuge Kaoru searched for books about 'Metasequoia' in the electronic catalog on his desk. But the books I found were all 'plant-based' books, and they didn't do much to what I wanted to know. "It seems that you still have to ask Hongyue directly." Zhuge Xun put down the book and was about to leave the third floor to go to the gift shop in front, but before passing by the automatic book in the center, Zhuge Xun stopped, because he saw the red, gold, blue, black, and four candles of different lengths.

The candles in the main building are not ordinary candles, and it can be said that each candle in the main building is a soul, and the four candles on the third floor represent the four people who live in the Red Moon Pavilion now. The red moon is red, and the length is only the size of a thumb. The golden one should be Kate's, the cyan one should be her own, and the black one should be Ling's. The candles of the three Kate are the same length as her own, and the feathers are slightly shorter than the two's. These candles should not represent the time that everyone lives in the museum, otherwise he and Kate will not be longer than Ling's, if not the time of residence, then it should be the life limit of each person. Is the Red Moon's lifespan approaching? Isn't she the owner of the Red Moon Mansion? There are times when life is nearing, and what about after that......

"You care about these candles too?" Kate's voice rang behind him.

"Do you know what they mean?" Zhuge Xun looked back at Kate Fryne. Whatever you hate, you can come!

"Xiao Honghong's time is running out, that's why she has all this now, although I don't know why Xiao Honghong hates this world, but she is indeed looking forward to the end of this world."

"Is it Miss Red Moon who hates this world, or does the Moon Pavilion hate this world? Is it the world or the human race? Zhuge Xun asked rhetorically.

"You're much smarter than Little Lingling. Whatever we hate, we can't do anything about it, because we're just 'guests' here, so far. ”

"Won't it be in the future? Since there is a candle of the red moon here, can't it be said that in fact, she only lives here? If it weren't for that, the candles of the red moon wouldn't be with ours. ”

"Who knows...... How are you coming back here if you're not in the eight laps? Last time, Ling heard that you were going to look for you in Baquan when you were in the eighth circle, but Xiao Honghong didn't let him go. ”

"Looking for me? Do what? "Doesn't Hongyue want Ling to go eight laps?

"Xiao Lingling didn't say."

"Are you really Ling's father?" It's hard to imagine the relationship between the two.

"Xiao Honghong didn't deny it, I don't want to have a stupid son like Ling, just with my intelligence and my beauty, how could Ling's stinky stone be born. But he's my son. Uncle Ben has a special ability, but I am willing, and I can know everything about those who have been sucked by me, so I know that Ling is my child. ”

"Oh. Do you know anything about the Red Moon? ”

"I only know that she lived for 2,500 years, and I don't know anything else."

"You've sucked her blood?" Zhuge Xun was surprised, would Red Moon let Kate do that?

"At that time, Xiao Honghong just wanted to save me, but my skills didn't work for her."

"What about the Moon Pavilion?"

"Hmph, you really think highly of me. Come with me. Kate asked Zhuge Xun to come to the front of the directory with her. Kai clicked a few times, and two books flew down from the shelves above and landed on the crystal table.

Kate motioned for Zhuge Xun to see.

Zhuge Xun saw two books on the table with only names on the cover, without any other words or pictures, one book was called "Mio Moon Pavilion", and the other book was titled "The Pavilion of the Burning Moon", and he wanted to read it but couldn't open it. Zhuge Xun looked at Kate puzzled.

"I found these two books by accident, and the 'entries' I searched for were the first and second owners. Now ......" Kate looked back at the self-recording book in the middle of the hall. "The book I wrote, the title of which is 'The Pavilion of the Red Moon', and it is also all the things that happened in the Pavilion during the management of the third owner of the 'Pavilion of the Moon'. There are some things that Little Red Red or Moon Pavilion doesn't want us to know, at least for the time being. It's no coincidence that we're here, and I guess it's because the little red candle is running out. We are either being used to 'renew our lives', or we are candidates for the next owner. Kate let the book fly back to the shelf. So none of us can stop Xiao Honghong from doing anything. ”

Listening to Kate's words, Zhuge Xun didn't say anything, just stared at the four candles and thought about things. "What do you mean by telling me?"

"When I'm bored." I'm going to go back six laps to comfort the lovely people who need me, and by the way, Ling really thinks of you as a friend. Kate waved at Zhuge Xun and went back to her room.

It's not the time to meet Ling yet, and I regard him as a friend, but the things in front of me are more important. Zhuge Xun looked at the automatically recorded book again. Suddenly, Zhuge Xun noticed something unusual.

Zhuge Xun approached the book and found that the quill that recorded the book stopped, and then a red switch rose from the book, piercing through the protective cover and floating in front of Zhuge Xun.

"Is it for me to press?" This is the meaning of the red moon, what is this switch? Zhuge Xun looked around, and there was nothing unusual. And the switch floated up and down, as if urging Zhuge Xun to press it quickly.

When Zhuge Xun pressed the switch, suddenly the entire main hall of the Red Moon Pavilion was pitch black, all the lit candles in the room were extinguished in an instant, and the hall fell into temporary darkness, Zhuge Xun didn't know what was going on, just stunned in place. In just three seconds, the room was lit again, but it was not from candles, but from the extraordinarily ornate chandelier of the zenith that had never been lit. Under the illumination of the crystal lamp, Zhuge Xun saw the bright scene, and in a trance saw a girl who looked like the red moon in the light, that should be the red moon, a long time ago, although the appearance is the same as the current red moon, but the girl in the light looks smaller. I saw that the girl was tied to the fire with the word 'ten', and at her feet was a majestic fire that was burning, and she couldn't hear her words, but her expression was pleading bitterly with the people surrounding below, judging from the clothes of those people below, it should be performing some ritual on a girl who looked like a red moon, and there were some ordinary people kneeling down in the distance, the girl's pleading failed to win the kindness of those below, and the fire burned the girl's clothes, burned the girl's skin, and engulfed the girl's figure...... Although he couldn't hear anything, Zhuge Xun could feel the girl's heart-rending cry for help, and the strangely dressed people around below were like victors, raising their magic weapons in their hands to the crowd kneeling in the distance.

'Smack! With a clap of his hands, the crystal lamps at the zenith went out, and everything in sight was wiped out, and the candlelight was rekindled in the room.

"Enough of it!" Red Moon's cold voice sounded behind Zhuge Xun.

Zhuge Xun, who was watching intently, was really startled by the voice of the red moon. "Miss Red Moon!" Zhuge Xun settled down. "What is that?" Listening to Hongyue's tone, she definitely didn't want to let herself or anyone else see all this just now.

Hongyue said coldly: "Zhu, Ge, Kaoru, I don't blame you for today's incident, because if it wasn't for its willingness, you wouldn't be able to find the switch." If you don't have anything to do, please leave first. ”

Hongyue directly called her full name, indicating that Hongyue should be very angry now, and the girl in the image should be Hongyue herself, she is dead...... Is it?

"Miss Hongyue, in fact, I came back to you this time because I had something, but I accidentally saw what happened just now." Zhuge Xun didn't forget that he came back to ask Hongyue to help him rescue the dying metasequoia, what happened just now was really just an accident, or did the museum deliberately let himself see the image just now.

Hongyue closed her eyes, as if she was calming her mood, and after a long time, Hongyue opened her eyes and said without any temperature in her tone: "Zhuge Xun, you are not allowed to tell others what you saw today, although the Moon Pavilion chose you, but there are some things that you still don't know too much, I don't know why the switch appeared in front of you, but now the owner of this pavilion is me." ”

Zhuge Xun's side, the dog god who appeared at some point, was on guard with the woman exuding a cold aura in front of him. Zhuge Xun's dog god will automatically appear to protect the master when he knows that the master is in danger.

Hongyue narrowed her eyes and glared at the dog-like god, the dog that was originally grinning with bared teeth, obediently retreated to his original world, leaving Zhuge Xun alone with hair.

"I really didn't mean to do it this time. I don't want to make a fuss about it. If Miss Red Moon is not at ease, you can solve me with Miss Red Moon's reassuring solution. Zhuge Xun understands that the gap between the two cannot be compared at all.

Hongyue knew that it was not Zhuge Xun's fault, just because he had no way to find the switch, it was all the hall's own decision. It seems that his time is really coming soon, and those troublesome characters should be coming soon, and it's time for him to hand over the identity of the 'hall owner'.

Red Moon put the switch back into the book, and the book that had been left off began to record again.

"Miss Hongyue, I'll go back to my room first, and I'll look for you later." Zhuge Xun knew that it was time to give Hongyue some time to calm her.

"Zhuge Xun?" After Zhuge Xun left the third floor, Hongyue looked at the book that was automatically recorded, and her own candle. "You're hiding something from me, aren't you? From 2500 years ago. Red Moon muttered to herself, and the empty third floor didn't know who could answer her question. Forget it, I'll ask when you guys come, and it's better to give me an explanation. ”

"I'll keep my promise, but isn't it time yet? Is Zhuge Kaoru the one you chose? Or you wouldn't have let him see that, or did you want him to stop me? But there won't be a next time! Red Moon raised an enchantment orb from her hand and wrapped it over the outside of the automatic record book, along with the protective cover of the book itself. Red Moon knows that this is useless, because if the pavilion wants others to know, there is no way to stop it, although he is now the owner of the Moon Pavilion, but after all, he also lives in the pavilion......

"No, yes, really, yes, let, I, angry, angry." Red Moon finished speaking into the air word by word before leaving the library and returning to the first floor.

When I got to the first floor, I saw Zhuge Xun and Kate sitting on the sofa together, and neither of them spoke.

Seeing that it was the red moon coming down, Kate first asked: "I said Xiao Honghong, the gate of time is not easy to use, I want to go back six laps...... You, Zhuge Xun, that little ghost made you angry? ”

Although Red Moon has regained her calm on the surface, Kate can still feel that Red Moon is angry now, and if she wants to live without being kicked out, she will not provoke her. But it's really strange, this should be the first time that Hongyue is angry in the real sense, from the heart, the kind of anger in the past is not as good as this. Is it because of Zhuge Xun's relationship? Did something happen after you left the third floor? I asked Zhuge Xun just now, but he didn't say anything.

"The Gate of Time should be ready, you can go." Red Moon doesn't want to listen to Kate's nonsense.

"But I'm afraid that you will be angry and slaughter Zhuge Xun's little ghost." Kate said half-jokingly.

Listening to Kate's words, Zhuge Xun glared at Kate fiercely. Kate didn't see it.

"Mr. Zhuge is still a guest of my Red Moon Pavilion." Hongyue said calmly.

"For now...... Well, now that the door is ready, I won't stay here. "Kate doesn't know what's going on, but it's a big deal!" Zhuge Xun, you actually teased Xiao Honghong, you are also impatient, I can't help you now. ”

"I didn't!" Zhuge Xun doesn't want people to misunderstand that Hongyue is angry because of this!

Of course, Kate knew it wasn't because of this kind of thing, but she still wanted to make fun of it. But it's better to leave this as soon as possible, the 'air pressure' in this room is too low, and the trouble will be left to Zhuge Xun.

"Miss Hongyue......" Zhuge Xun asked tentatively.

"What's the matter?"

"I, Zhuge Xun, am not an eventful person, so you can use your strength to make me forget what happened just now, because I myself will not forget. But I'm not going to get to the bottom of it, that's Miss Red Moon's business, and if Miss wants to tell me one day, or we, I'm willing to listen to Red Moon. ”

"No, this is in the past. Don't mention it again. I know you have a lot of questions on your mind right now, and one day you'll know, but now is not the time. Hongyue said calmly. Through this incident, Hongyue knew that Zhuge Xun was the first person to be 'real'.

"Miss Hongyue knows about the eight circles of metasequoia, right?" Zhuge Xun asked.

"Its lifespan has reached and I can't help it, after all, it's 2016 years old, and no tree can live that long."

"Is there no way?" Zhuge Xun also knew in his heart that this metasequoia had actually reached its lifespan, but he still thought that the red moon would have a way.

"There is no way to forcibly revive it, it is just adding a burden to it, so it is better to let it return to nature. However, the gift shop in front of me has something that can be 'reborn' metasequoia, but it is very expensive and you may not be able to find it. ”

"Gift shop stuff?" Zhuge Xun asked suspiciously. I've heard Hongyue say that the gift shop in front of me has heard Hongyue say that I still find the fan in front of the gift shop. That store is a dimensional space, and no one knows how many things are in it except for the red moon, and everyone sees different things, which means that the things that appear in everyone's eyes will only appear if they have meaning in that person's life, and if they don't have any meaning or value to that person, they won't see that kind of thing, so the red moon will say that he may not be able to find it.

"Your stuff is expensive." Zhuge Xun hasn't forgotten what he exchanged for the fan. She won't let herself trade a fan this time.

"I'm not interested in your fan, you can just put it away yourself." Red Moon seemed to see through Zhuge Xun's worries.

"You don't have to worry so much about the eight circles."

"After all, Master Long's family has been the one who guards the tomb of the ancestor Zhuge Liang since the beginning of the ancestors, so I can't ignore the matter of the eight circles this time. Besides, Miss Hongyue knows that the Eight Circles are the real burial place of Zhuge Liang, the center of the Southern Enchantment, the ancestors were annoyed because of their personal mistakes, so they would bury the empty coffin elsewhere after death, and they themselves were buried in the place where the Eight Circles are now, the Long family was originally a servant of the Zhuge family, and they have been guarding the tomb of the ancestors since Zhuge Liang passed away, and they are also the only clansmen who have the drawings of Zhuge Liang's tomb. Everyone in the Zhuge family knows about it, but after that 'incident', that is, after the Zhuge family's 'separation', the Long family disappeared, and later I learned that the Long family was afraid that the bad people of the Zhuge family would take power and use the corpse of the ancestor to do bad things before they escaped. At the same time, he also took away the drawings about the specific location of Zhuge Liang's ancestor's burial, which did not allow Zhuge Fangliang to find the body of the ancestor Zhuge Liang, thus destroying the barrier that protects the world.

I don't need to tell me about the usefulness of the ancestor's body, Miss Hongyue knows it, so I ask Miss Hongyue for guidance on this matter. ”

"You know the rules of the gift shop before. If you can find that thing, I'll help you, and if you can't find it, there's nothing I can do. This is the decision of the museum itself. Red Moon said. Red Moon can't interfere with the Moon Pavilion's own decisions, so it depends on whether the Pavilion is willing to help Zhuge Xun and the Eight Circles.

"I want to try." Zhuge Xun said.

"Then Mr. Zhuge come with me." Red Moon got up and walked towards the wooden gate.

Zhuge Xun followed. (To be continued.) )
