Yin-Yang Gate
A month later.
"Why hasn't your words grown at all?" Rong Qing had no choice but to hold his forehead after reading the horizontal and vertical words again.
"I'm not good at words, but I have a good job. Mu Xiaoxiao was wearing a white fur coat and smiled mysteriously.
Yunzhi on the side seems to have grown a lot taller, wearing a white robe and a black fox fur cloak, and the whole person looks a lot more handsome.
He looked up at her curiously, Mu Xiaoxiao glanced at the two of them, and then laughed: "You read books all day long, and there are many hexagram books, and I only discovered this skill recently." After speaking, he looked at Rong Qing again.
"Master, the weather is very good today, why don't we rest for half a day, how about we go to the back mountain?"
Rong Qing looked out the window, and said lightly: "It's okay, you just go and rest for half a day." Then he sat down again.
Without waiting for him to pick up the book, Mu Xiaoxiao walked up to him quickly and slapped the book on the book: "Master, you can go with the apprentice today!" After speaking, he took Rong Qing's arm and walked out.
"You let go first. Rong Qing glanced at him, and as soon as she turned around, she remembered that there was a difference between respect and inferiority, so she let go.
Rong Qing stroked his sleeves and said lightly, "Let's go." So he went out first.
Yunzhi also put down the book, got up and sorted out his clothes, and Mu Xiaoxiao followed Yunzhi and walked out of the palace gate.
The sky was blue, cloudless, and there was a hint of grass in the air.
Yunzhi is also a mental shock, in addition to studying, he has never been so idle, today's lazy, the scenery of Jiuju Mountain is really extraordinary.
Guo Heng and Wuwu didn't say anything all the way, just looked around.
The group walked into the canyon from the back mountain, and finally came to the thorn forest at the foot of the mountain.
"Master, senior brother, since I was sent up the mountain by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you should know that I came to investigate Xiaoxiang's disappearance, right?" Mu Xiaoxiao turned to look at them.
Rong Qing looked indifferent, and he nodded slightly.
It is undeniable, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not hidden this matter, everyone knows it.
Mu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows again: "Then do you know that I am a woman?" As soon as she saw the expressions of the two old gods, she wanted to break the expressions on their faces.
Sure enough, Rong Qing looked surprised, although there is no rule that women cannot stay overnight on the Jiuzhong Mountain, except for the priestess in the past dynasties, there has never been a record of women on the mountain.
Yunzhi also laughed, no wonder she always felt that she lacked some masculinity, it turned out to be a woman, His Royal Highness did his homework at this point, and people couldn't find out.
Mu Xiaoxiao was still not surprised when she saw the two of them, so she smiled evilly: "Do you know that I'm going down the mountain today?" After speaking, she moved her position.
"I have come to you today to tell you one thing. She cracked her mouth.
The crowd was confused.
"You tell His Royal Highness the Prince, Xiaoxiang is not missing, he is under house arrest, in a place with high mana, Xiaoxiang and I are in the same village, how can we see death and not save it?" Mu Xiaoxiao took out a small knife.
"What are you going to do?" Rong Qing's faint face was stunned.
"Oh, I just wanted to see if what a priestess said was true, and she told Her Highness to go to the highest place on the mountain, the most crowded, and the most beautiful. After speaking, he looked at Wu Wu: "Thank you for taking care of you all the time, but it's a pity that I can't take you away today." After speaking, he cut off his palm, and when everyone saw it, their faces changed greatly.
Worry-free flew over, a light blocked out, bounced him back, he clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood, and stared at Mu Xiaoxiao, who was surrounded by a halo of light.
Mu Xiaoxiao closed his eyes, and suddenly felt that his body was light, and he fainted.
People disappear out of thin air, for Rong Qing, it is a normal thing, after all, he has already seen it once, and this time he only frowned lightly and thoughtfully.
But Yunzhi and the remaining two saw it for the first time, and they couldn't help but be shocked. Yunzhi felt like a dream, but not like a dream, he slapped his face twice, and when he felt pain, he believed that it was true.
Guo Heng has always been an atheist, and now all this makes him a little scared in his heart, remembering the poisonous oath he made to heaven in the past, and he suddenly regrets it.
Wuwu stood up, stabilized his mind, and flew away.
When the prince arrived, it was dusk, and a crowd of people gathered around the thorn forest.
Gao Zhao's face was gloomy and calm, and the Thorn Forest was still as calm as before. Mochizuki Weiming groaned, and was about to speak, when an old voice sounded, everyone turned around, and an old man dressed in black, with a black hairband tied on his forehead, and a circular five-star pattern on the hairband, walked over and slowly saluted Gao Zhao.
Gao Zhao helped the old man up, and arched his hands: "My nephew asks my uncle to say goodbye." β
"Do you know where this is?" Although the old man's face was full of wrinkles and his voice was old, he was full of confidence.
"My nephew doesn't know, please ask my aunt to know it" Gao Zhao looked at the thorn forest.
As night fell, the people lit torches and lit up the entire mountain.
"This is the Thorn Forest, and according to legend, there is an elf named Sun and Ancient Moon, which is transformed by a thorn tree. There is one
Out of curiosity about human beings, she looked forward to the arrival of the scholar every day, and the scholar would come here every three days to pick herbs, and accidentally scratched his hand by the thorns, and the scholar's blood dripped onto the thorns that Gu Yue cultivated, so she became a human form.
Gu Yue turned into a woman, and when the scholar saw that this woman was so beautiful, he took her home.
Gu Yue doesn't understand the world, and only thinks that being with her beloved is happinessγγγγ
Alas, it's a pity, how can that grass be the opponent of mankind? The scholar had a wife and children at home, and his wife Gao learned the secret of Gu Yue, and burned her true body with a fire, and the scholar was overwhelmed with grief when he saw it, so he also threw himself into the fire, and the fire spread, burning one mountain after another, until the heavy rain fell in the sky, and the raging fire was extinguished. Speaking of this, the old man looked at Gao Zhao.
"It's been 330 years since this happened. She sighed deeply.
"What do you mean, uncle, is this the site of the fire?" Gao Zhao was surprised.
"Yes, I estimated that there would be a woman who would show up, but I could lift the curse of our royal family, but I didn't want her to disappear halfway. The old man looked at the sky.
"Uncle, where is this place" Gao Zhao looked into the distance.
"This is a medium that connects heaven and earth - the Yin-Yang Gate. The old man raised his eyes, "I don't know where the capable person is, and opened this door." She shook her head
Gao Zhao also looked at the thorn forest, and made up his mind to ask for worry-free details, so he didn't stay here for long, turned around and walked back, Mochizuki Weiming also saluted the old man and retreated.
"Excellent, you go to your house quickly, take Zhuo Feng Zhuoyun, go to Xiaoyao Town to guard, and protect the prince. The old man looked worried.
"Yes, master. A man in his twenties took the order and retreated.
Rong Qing sat in the nine-fold hall, copying the mantra with a calm face.
"You're idle. Gao Zhao walked in, followed by Mochizuki Weiming.
"Meet Your Highness. Rong Qing lowered his head slightly.
"You don't come to this set. Are you not. Deliberately let Mu Xiaoxiao go?" the prince looked impatient.
"You're too worried, I didn't know she could actually open the door of yin and yang. Rong Qing's face was calm.
"This palace is going to Xiaoyao Town immediately, since you lost my people, please go with me!" Gao Zhao casually flipped through the books on his desk.
"The priests of the nine-storied hall are not allowed to go down the mountain at will, this is the rule. Rong Qing looked calm.
"The rules of this nine-story hall have changed, and only women can be priests in the future!" Gao Zhao looked calm.
"When's the rule?"
"Now. β
The two looked at each other
"Aren't you Brother Wangyue?" Rong Qing looked at Mochizuki who was drinking tea on the side.
Mochizuki is not a mouthful of water to swallow, not to swallow is not, stuck in his throat.
"He's going to stay here, not going this time. Gao Zhao glanced at him.
Rong Qing looked at Gao Zhao for a while, and then said:
"Since the prince is so gracious, he will obey his fate. β
