A large family together, not only lively, but also warm, especially in this freezing winter, as soon as I entered the horror academy, I was comfortable.

We found a conference room and sat down and talked about stories for almost a morning. After telling almost everything we saw and heard in Shanghai, everyone dispersed unsatisfied, but after everyone was almost gone. Ru Jun lowered his voice and asked, "That card pack with a strange logo is still with you?" ”

I nodded slightly, took out the card bag and handed it to Rujun, Rujun glanced at it, his face changed slightly, and he seemed to feel a little strange......

"This ......"

"What is this?" I was surprised and asked, could it be that this Dong Rujun has seen it?

But it's also reliable, after all, Rujun is also the head of one of the four major families, and he was also a well-known big family in the capital of the Ming Dynasty during his lifetime, so of course his knowledge will be several times higher than ours.

Rujun gently rubbed the sign in his hand, looked at the dense petals, and the strange eyes in the center of the flower, and did not speak for a long time. Morphos attracts talents.

"Rujun...... This is...... What the? I asked softly.

Rujun said in a low voice: "I remember that I only saw this kind of thing when I first became a ghost, but I only saw it once or twice, like this." Let's go and ask Cao Wufu, he is well-informed, maybe he has really seen this thing. ”

I couldn't help but complain in my heart: Cao is useless? Is Cao useless really useful? Let's ask Guo Fengxian...... I'm afraid that this Cao is useless and will push me into the fire pit again......

However, I was still embarrassed to say this, so I followed Rujun to the floor where Cao Wuwu was.

Because Cao Wuxian's room lives in the innermost, if you want to find Cao Wuxian, you will inevitably disturb Guo Fengxian, and Guo Fengxian is a guy who is as careful as dust, and before we can walk over, he has suddenly penetrated through the door and appeared in the corridor.

It's still daytime, and the windows in the hallway are covered with heavy curtains. Guo Fengxian looked at me and Rujun, and bowed lightly: "Master, master, are you here?" ”

Rujun may still not be used to being called "housemother" by Guo Fengxian, but after hearing this weird title, her face still turned red slightly. And opposite Guo Fengxian is Chen Xuance's room, this old fox doesn't seem to be in the horror academy these days, otherwise he must have emerged just now.

I smiled and asked, "Is Mr. Cao here?" We came over for something and wanted to ask the three sages. ”

Guo Fengxian smiled slightly, and did not hide the surprised expression on his face: "What does the master mean...... Are you really looking for my big brother? ”

I smiled and lowered my voice and said, "Find ...... Of course, although this guy is not very reliable, but sometimes he is quite wise......"

The voice did not fall. Cao Wufu appeared in front of us as if he had installed a bug, this guy was always wearing such a faded robe, looking at us with a shelf, with an unfathomable smile on his face, and said, "The master is back?" This trip to Shanghai has gained a lot, and I have listened to you just now. I wonder what other little secrets are waiting to communicate with us in private? ”

I was so shocked by Cao Wuyong's weird words that I hurriedly took out the card pack with the weird logo and said, "Just one question, which of you knows this sign." ”

I originally thought that Cao Wuxian would pretend to know and explain whether he knew it or not, but I didn't expect Cao Wuwu and Guo Fengxian to suddenly shout out four words in unison after seeing this strange sign:

Tianyan Lotus?!

Tianyan Lotus?

I looked at them and repeated the name in shock.

If this name was said by Cao Wuxian alone, then I would definitely think that it was a name that he was talking nonsense, but Cao Wuwu and Guo Fengxian shouted this name in unison almost at the same time, which means that this name really exists.

Rujun was also surprised, the two of us looked at the two of them, I thought about it, organized the language, and then asked, "This ...... What kind of sign is this? ”

"It's our logo." Cao's useless answer shocked me: "This is the sign of ourselves, the ruler of the underworld......"

I was a little confused by Cao's useless answer: "Our logo? The King of Dragons' own emblem? ”

Cao Wufu nodded and said, "Yes, the underworld of Sijiu City was our master before...... That is, your past life...... Alas, such a description is awkward...... This is the sign we used in the reign of your previous life, so I say it is our own sign. ”

Still a little confused, I said, "But I once saw this logo appear on a letter to Mr. Liang along with the Garuda logo, why is that?" The King of Dragons and Garuda are mortal enemies? ”

Cao Wuxian was a little unclear, but at the critical moment, Guo Fengxian stood up and said: "Actually, this is the case, although this Tianyan Lotus is our symbol, it is not our unique symbol, this is a common symbol of the rulers of the underworld in the whole world, and the original founder is not ours...... At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Yao Guangxiao overthrew my master and set up the power of the underground palace, which became a unique symbol of the underground palace. ”

When I heard this, I understood a little, it turned out that this Tianyan lotus flower is a symbol of the ruler of the underworld in a place, the ruler of the underworld in Sijiu City has such a sign, the ruler of the underworld in Pancake Fruit City also uses such a sign, the ruler of the underworld in Shanghai City also uses such a sign, and the ruler of the underworld in Jinling City also uses such a symbol......

In this way, the ghost who caught us in the express hotel in Shanghai that night was not the fourth son, but the ruler of the underworld in Shanghai, but why did I touch the ruler of the underworld in Shanghai? We haven't done anything other than kill Han Feng......

However, killing Han Feng did seem to be a bit excessive.

Of course, this is not the main problem, the main question is the origin of this Tianyan Lotus.

Cao Wufu looked at us with a blank expression, coughed, and set up a posture to start lecturing. But when this guy makes such a move, it usually means that he is ready to brag.

"In fact, the origin of this Tianyan lotus is very complicated, but the complexity is complicated, but I know it clearly...... This is related to the leadership of the underworld, as we all know, our country is quite rich in religious beliefs, but from ancient times to the present, the most prosperous religion is nothing more than Buddhism and Taoism......"

When he said this, Cao Wufu looked at us with a smile, deliberately gasped for breath, and then continued: "The two cultivation methods of the Buddha Dao are not the same, but they are both supreme magic weapons of the Extreme Heavenly Dao. The struggle between the two families has been continuous for a long time, from the yang world to the underworld, and has evolved to this day, the struggle between the two families in the yang world has gradually declined, and the well water does not interfere with the river water, but in the underworld there is another scene, that is, the Buddhism and Taoism have been integrated and become a ......."

Cao Wufu said nonsense, but I was confused, "What does this mean, can you explain it more clearly?" ”

Guo Fengxian estimated that he really couldn't listen to it, so he hurriedly added: "The meaning of this is actually very simple, that is, in our country, in general, there are only two families of Buddhism and Taoism, Buddhism and Taoism are in the same place in the yang world, and everyone in the two families looks at who is not pleasing to the eye, and it is still like this, but the living person dies and goes to the underworld, and the living disciples of the Buddhist family are still Buddhist disciples in the underworld, and the same is true for Taoism, and the disciples of the two families will definitely fight for power and profit in the underworld, but it is different from the yang world, and it has developed to this day. The two schools of Buddhism and Taoism in the underworld have been completely integrated, and the Buddha and Taoism have become inseparable. ”

Cao Wufu nodded and said: "That's it, the second child translates my words in an easy-to-understand way, which is really a good skill." ”

I scratched my head and asked, "What does this have to do with this symbol?" ”

Cao Wufu said with a smile: "The lotus flower represents Buddhism, and the heavenly eye in it represents Taoism...... Isn't it spectacular that the symbols of the two religions have come together to become the symbol of the rulers of the entire underworld today?! ”
