Chapter 145: The Mystery in the Words
Ling Xuan, the first ancestor of the Ling family, shocked the world with his metaphysical skills, and the descendants of the Ling family are living in the north and south, and the suzerains of the past dynasties take over the throne, and they need to bend their bows and swing the geese alone......
This is what Ling Xiao Pavilion solemnly asked Ling Zhihan to remember, and even I kept it in my heart.
After Ling Zhihan recited this sentence backwards to Ling Ran, Ling Ran's brows tightened, and his expression was as confused.
"This is easy to understand, that is, the Ling family actually has two blood sects connected by the same vein, one is in the south, it should be your Gusu Ling family, and the other is in the north, you should know the specific location better than me." Tian Ji said after listening to it. "The latter sentence is easier to understand, if you want to be the sect master, you have to bend a bow and shoot a wild goose down alone, so that you can be convincing people."
"And then?" The palace lord asked nonchalantly.
And then ...... That's what it means. Tian Ji replied seriously.
"Ling Xiao Pavilion said this to Ling Zhihan, and pointed out the secret that is related to the inheritance of the Ling family from generation to generation, according to your explanation, it is gone, what is the secret?" The palace lord glanced at Tian Ji.
"Dad, you know more about the Ling family than I know, listen to what grandpa means, in addition to the Gusu Ling family, there is another side line of the Ling family?"
"Impossible, the Ling family has been settled in Gusu since the ancestor Ling Xuan opened the sect, and has never migrated, and the records of the generations in the genealogy are clear at a glance, and there are no descendants of the Ling family." Ling Ran shook his head.
"That's strange, in this sentence, the descendants of the Ling family are living in the north and south, and they clearly have the same meaning as what Brother Tian said, is there anything else that means?" Ling Zhihan's face was puzzled.
"Since you are the sect master of the Ling family, think about it, is there any special ritual before taking over the throne, just like what is said in these words, to bend the bow and shoot the goose to stand up and stand might?" I asked Ling Ran.
"There is no such thing, I have seen my grandfather pass the throne to my father, and I have also experienced my father's inheritance, there is no ceremony at all, just in the ancestral hall to pay homage to the ancestors, and take the bracelet of the sect master, this matter is over, and then the first thing the new patriarch will do is to find a good inheritor among the heirs, and tattoo a pattern on his body." Ling Ran replied affirmatively, suddenly remembering something. "By the way, there is one more thing, when the sect master inherits, he must teach a feng shui bureau, but it is an extremely ordinary feng shui pattern, nothing special."
"Then what Ling Xiao Pavilion said is not in the village and behind the store, don't be really confused and say it wrong." Generals are people who would rather use their hands and not their brains.
"Ling Xiaoge was in the ward when he said this, and he was imprisoned for more than twenty years, he must have been quite cautious, it is estimated that he was worried about the wall, so some words cannot be said clearly, let you remember this, it is for you to ponder and understand." Zhao Yan thought for a while and said. "Most of these words have other mysteries."
"When Grandpa said this, he did say that he was worried that the wall had ears, and he also told me to think about it carefully." Ling Zhihan read the words again in his mouth. "The words in front are normal, it seems that the mysteries are all in the back, the descendants are living in the north and south, and the suzerains of the past dynasties take over the throne, and they need to bend their bows and swing the geese alone, in these few words."
"I have some ideas, don't run on me if you say something wrong." Tian Ji was afraid that he would say something wrong, so he hesitated and poked his head forward.
"Brainstorming, it doesn't matter if you're wrong, Brother Tian, what do you think." The only person who can be polite to Tian Ji here is Ling Zhihan, and I don't know where she has such good patience.
"The descendants are living in the north and the south, let's look at it separately, the descendants are dividing and living in the north and south." Tian Ji said while beckoning Ye Zhiqiu to help with the paper. "It's easy to understand after separation."
We thought separately according to Tian Ji's ideas, but we were still confused, Ye Zhiqiu handed the pen and paper to Tian Ji: "Then, I didn't see any clues when we separated." ”
"Don't worry, let's come one by one, first of all, the descendants, this should be easy for you to understand." Tian Ji wrote the word "offspring" on the paper.
"Descendants, descendants should be the descendants of the Ling family." I thought about answering for a moment.
"Old Man Ling can't make it clear, let you understand it well, don't just stare at the literal meaning, can you be clever in your brain." The field chicken can still ridicule my brain is not good.
"And what do you mean?" Gong Jue frowned and asked.
"You pronounce these two words anyway, don't you feel familiar?"
"Reversed? Generational? "The general is in a hurry." You kid said it directly. ”
"Hey, why are you so unenlightened, didn't we crack the words in the letter to the shopkeeper before, isn't there a shadow queen in it, behind the shadow word is 彡, the generation is a reason, what do you say is behind the codeword?"
I hesitated for a moment, and saw Tian Ji's pen draw a stroke in the middle of the pronoun, dividing the pronoun into two, and on the right is a Yi character.
"If you're right, what about positive points?" Zhao Yan was a little interested.
"It's simpler, positive division, isn't it to separate the orthography, just the top word, the bottom stop word."
Although we are still confused and have no clue, Tian Ji's idea is not right or wrong, I followed his words and asked: "What about the last sentence of living in the north and south?" ”
"This ......," Tian Ji scratched his head and smiled. I don't know about this, don't let me think about it alone, you all have better brains than me. ”
"Living in the north and south, living in the north and south." Ling Ran's eyes fell on the paper in Tian Ji's hand, and he muttered to himself. "The north and the south can be regarded as up and down, and as for the ...... and the living"
Gong Jue suddenly took the pen and paper from Tian Ji's hand, first wrote a word on it, and then filled in a word on it, and soon I saw the corners of his mouth slowly curled, and he reached out to pinch Tian Ji's face and smiled: "You kid is finally clever once, don't say it, Tian Ji is right, I know what this sentence means." ”
"What do you mean?" Everyone asked in unison.
Gong Jue added another stop to the words he had written before, and then erected the paper in front of us, and a complete word appeared on it.
Military!
"Living in the north and south, in fact, means that the front orthography separates the one and the end up and down on the Yi word, which happens to be a martial word."
"Grandpa told me a riddle, he was worried that what he said would be heard by outsiders, so he hid the key words in these two sentences." Ling Zhihan suddenly realized that he was overjoyed.
Ling Xiao Pavilion has been imprisoned for more than 20 years, I am afraid that he has been planning how to pass on the secret for a long time, these words must have been pondered by Ling Xiao Pavilion for a long time, even if they are heard, they will only be misled by the literal meaning for a while, after all, only the people of the Ling family know that the Ling family does not have a side branch blood sect, let alone a ceremony of bending a bow and arrows to shoot a goose to stand up.
"These two sentences are anagrams, the first sentence is a martial character, presumably the second sentence is alone with a bow and a goose, and there should also be a hidden word." Ye Zhiqiu said.
The latter sentence is much more complicated, all of us racked our brains and thought about it for a long time, no matter what method was used, it was still impossible to decipher, Ling Ran was silent for a long time, his fingers kept tapping, Tian Ji and the general estimated that they couldn't help, and they didn't speak on the side, we wrote and drew on the paper repeatedly, and more than a dozen sheets of paper were already written.
I stood up and stretched tiredly, still muttering to myself: "A man bends his bow and shoots geese......"
As I spoke, I made a gesture of bending my bow and shooting a goose.
"Don't move!" Ling Ran, who hadn't heard a sound all along, suddenly stood up.
Ling Ran walked around me, my body stiffened and watched him go around in front of me, my hands and feet were almost numb, and Ling Ran, who was standing opposite, still stared at me without saying a word.
"You mean, I'm cramping." I say.
Ling Ran didn't pay attention to me at all, picked up the pen and paper and wrote while looking at me: "One person is a big character." ”
"Dad, we've thought about this before, but there's no progress." Ling Zhihan reminded.
"You've been thinking about how to combine the big character with the bow character, because there is no such character at all, so there is no progress, if you stretch the big character." A smile gradually appeared on Ling Ran's face.
"The big character is elongated, it's also a big word." Tian Ji said.
"Look at Chaoge, now he stands alone like a big character, think about it if he has a curved bow on his body, what is it?" Ling Ran wrote a bow on the paper and pasted it on my chest.
The others looked back and forth for a long time and shook their heads blankly, and I suddenly opened my mouth, took off the paper on my body, and said as I wrote: "We are too inflexible, we think that the second sentence is complicated, in fact, the second sentence is very simple, one person bows, only need to intersect one and the herringbone and the bow word." ”
I put the written words in front of them.
"Yi!" Ye Zhiqiu was the first to speak.
"The first sentence is Wu, the second sentence is Yi, Wuyi ......" Ling Zhihan's eyes lit up, and he was immediately overjoyed. The wild goose is in turn the wild goose, there is a mountain word missing, and the word Wuyi in front of it happens to be Wuyi Mountain, what grandpa wants to tell me is Wuyi Mountain! ”
"The real meaning of what your grandfather said should be that the people who have taken over as the sect master of the Ling family in the past must go to Wuyi Mountain alone." I took a deep breath and looked at the others. "Ling Xiao Pavilion said that this is the secret of the Ling family's inheritance from generation to generation, that is...... The secret of the Ling family is in Wuyi Mountain! ”
"Vientiane Shrine! In this way, the Ling family has always known about the existence of the Vientiane Divine Palace, and Ling Wuchen was forced to ask by Lu Qiao and finally confided in the secret of the Vientiane Divine Palace. The palace lord was not shocked and said with a faint smile. In this way, it seems that the Vientiane Shrine should be in Wuyi Mountain. ”
"That's not right." I frowned, remembering the paperwork that had already been burned by Ling Zhihan. "It records that Lu Qiao led more than 100 elite iron horsemen from Dongchang, followed the lord deep into Mobei, and found a place that was consistent with Ling Wuchen's description, Wuyi Mountain was not in Mobei, so what was the place Lu Qiao and they found?"
"It is absolutely impossible for the Vientiane Divine Palace to be in Wuyi Mountain, I told you before, the Vientiane Divine Palace is also known as the Zhenlong Divine Palace, built on the Tang Dragon Vein, and my Ling family knows all about the dragon veins in the world, but none of them are in Wuyi Mountain." Ling Ran shook his head and said to us with great certainty. "My father left these words, implying that Zhihan went to Wuyi Mountain, where there are secrets of the Ling family, but it is definitely not where the Vientiane Divine Palace is!"
