Chapter 68: The Reversal of the Wheel of Fortune
"Your Majesty!!" shouted the somewhat old eunuch father-in-law in a hurry, and walked into the imperial study in a panic.
"What's the alarm?" Ji Xuanyan, the emperor of the Northern Yu Kingdom, frowned, his father-in-law had been by his side for many years, and he had never seen him lose his temper like this.
"Qin! The cold jade qin in your dormitory has sounded!" said the eunuch's father-in-law, his eyes widened and he gasped.
When the little eunuch who was cleaning the dormitory told him, he still didn't believe it, and after going to see it himself, he rushed all the way to inform the emperor.
"What are you talking about?" Ji Xuanyan instantly stood up in disbelief, if it was true, then he knew very well what it meant.
There are only three Han Yuqin in the world, one was destroyed in the war three hundred years ago, one is missing, and the other is in his bedroom.
When someone awakens the soul of the Hanyuqin and plays it, there will be resonance between the three instruments. And the one who has the ability to truly exert the Han Yuqin to the extreme is only the legendary power of Winter Nightless.
"Go back to the dormitory at once. Thinking of this, Ji Xuanyan immediately put down everything in his hand and quickly walked towards the dormitory.
As soon as he approached the dormitory, he heard the ethereal and beautiful sound of the piano coming from the room. As soon as I pushed open the door of the dormitory, I saw that the strings of the cold jade qin were gently plucked, and the cold air rushed out of the door, and the whole room was filled with the breath of winter, and a few pots of delicate flowers and plants in the room had long been unable to withstand the cold and withered.
Ji Xuanyan, who was stunned for a long time, came back to his senses, with a bit of awe and solemnity, and muttered a sentence in his mouth: "There is no night in winter, and the world has changed dramatically." ”
The cloudy night sky seemed to have a light that instantly pierced the entire sky, and the clouds and mist were peeled off layer by layer by an invisible hand, and the stars were brilliant and abnormal.
Towering Beiyu Sacred Mountain, the perennial lingering clouds and mist have also dissipated, and in the center of the dilapidated small temple on the top of the mountain, the statue of the goddess that has stood for a hundred years has fallen down violently.
And the base of the fallen goddess statue gushed out a huge stream of clear water, which broke the earth and fell into the wood, and rushed down from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain unstoppably.
The water that runs to the bottom of the mountain flows into the karst cave of the underground dark river, flowing through a hundred turns, so that the arid northern barren land river of Beiyu country reappears and moistens the earth.
From a distance, the rushing water on the sacred mountain is like a white silk, hanging obediently on this high mountain, shining brightly under the reflection of the stars.
The old man stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the four directions of the starry night, and the Beiyu Divine Mountain, which had never had such a clear face, with a rare smile and relief on his wrinkled face, and unprecedented piety and admiration.
The water flows down to the south of the mountain, and it has not destroyed the backyard of the small temple, which still stands on the highest point of the mountain, and it seems more and more sacred.
Maybe it was because of the same heart, Du Lichen, who had rested early, suddenly woke up from his dream without warning, and as soon as he opened the window of the inn, the starlight in the sky made him slightly stunned.
Carefully observing the trajectory of the stars, Du Lichen fell into shock for a long time, he looked up at the starry sky for more than 20 years, and it has become different.
He had heard his grandfather say that the power of Dong Wuye is so strong that it will make the trajectory of the stars change greatly, and even everyone's fate may be changed because of this, and all of this belongs to the power of Dong Wuye's master.
This star represents the true reappearance of Winter Nightless, the Void Fall Rank has been practiced, and it is the first time that he has played the Cold Jade Qin.
Du Lichen didn't understand, there were only two Han Yuqin, one was in the Beiyu Palace, and the other he had already given to Yun Ji, which Han Yuqin was in the hands of the master of Dong Wuye at this moment.
Tonight, the celestial masters of various countries who observe the astronomical phenomena are destined to be unable to sleep at night.
The deep pool of the East River in the east of the city is a cold cave.
"I'm leaving. Qian Xuan said softly, she and her sister had been waiting for this day for a long, long time.
"Hmm. Qian Li hooked her lips, and the long silver hair of the two of them flew wildly with the fierce air currents in the cold winter, wrapping around the neck of their beautiful faces.
"Thousands of mysteries. Two strange and familiar names suddenly appeared in Wei Xiwan's mind, and before she could think carefully about who it was, the next second, two figures appeared in front of her in an instant with the hazy cold air exuded by Han Yuqin.
The two women in front of them were half-sheer in their snow shirts, beautiful, barefoot and silver-haired, and their eyes were blue, but they knelt down to her with great respect, and their ethereal voices sounded: "Master, we have arrived." ”
Wei Xiwan just glanced at the two women coldly, Fuqin's hands did not stop, and the memories that she had never had quickly filled her mind.
The power of awakening made Wei Xiwan's eyes look like a thousand mysteries, with a faint crystal blue, but because of this, they looked extremely cold, ruthless and desireless.
There are no nights in winter.
When the three words clearly appeared in Wei Xiwan's mind, she finally completely understood what the cold qi in her body was before. Who are these two women in front of you, where did they come from, and why do you call her the master?
All the answers came into my mind with the sound of the piano, and all the memories of this great power were inherited.
Three hundred years ago, the war was raging, the city was frozen by the winter night, and a sacred mountain that guarded the soul of the power of the winter night, these two twin souls made of ice and snow were condensed......
Everything seemed to happen to her, and it was so clear in her mind.
This night is very long, so long that Wei Xi seems to have gone through 300 years of vicissitudes, and this night is also very short, so short that when Wei Xi feels that he has only finished playing a song, he finds that the sun has risen in the east.
The people in the National Teacher's Mansion only knew that Wei Xi played the piano all night, but they didn't know why.
Above the Nancheng court, the news from all sides converged.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen watched the stars last night and found that the stars changed dramatically, which meant both great murder and good fortune, indicating that the world was in turmoil and that the world was peaceful. ”
"Your Majesty, the river in the city has risen suddenly, and the river is cold before winter, and I don't know why it is now. ”
"Your Majesty, a big river suddenly flowed down the sacred mountain of Beiyu Kingdom, and I don't know why!"
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid all of this is closely related to this astrological sign. ”
......
"This is the astrological sign that never appears in the winter. An old and powerful voice suddenly sounded, and the three words "Winter Nightless", everyone fell silent for a moment, looking at the people who slowly walked in from the door of the main hall.
Grandpa, the head of the Library Pavilion, is the most respected person in the palace, and he is also the most qualified and learned person, and what he said, even the current Holy King Chengchen did not doubt it at all.
"Take a seat to the steward. Wang Chengchen whispered to the people around him, the grandfather in charge is very old, and his legs and feet are inconvenient, so he came here this time, presumably this astrological sign is not an ordinary thing.
And the words "Winter Nightless" that he said when he came in just now also confirmed this speculation.
"Many people know an old saying: when there is no night in winter, the world changes dramatically. But as for what the great change is, you don't know. Grandpa sat down and said slowly.
"Three hundred years ago, there was no night in winter, and the sixteen countries in the world were integrated into the four countries of Dongyu, Xiyue, Nancheng and Beiyu. Now that the east is gone, there is no night in winter again, which is the meaning of unifying the world. ”
The grandfather in charge was smiling, he may not be able to wait for that day on how to unify the world, but before he dies, he can still see the stars that appear in the winter night, and there are no regrets in this life.
"That's just one of them. Second, it is said that there is no night in winter, and the divine beasts that guard the four directions of heaven and earth will also wake up and protect the four directions. ”
"The divine beast that guards the four directions of heaven and earth?" Su Yilin said with interest, the last time there were some things about Dong Wuye, which was also told to him by the chief grandfather, but at that time, the chief grandfather had not mentioned the divine beast to him.
"That's right, the one who guards our south is called the Zhennan Nightmare Beast. The grandfather nodded in reply, and then continued:
"Thirdly, as the top of Gongma, the number of years of life will be affected by the vigorous development of Gongshu, which means that the number of longevity is no longer predetermined, but dominated by Gongshu, and the higher the degree of cultivation of Gongju, the lifespan of a person will exceed the limit of 100 years old, and even exist forever. ”
The grandfather of the chief steward paused, looked at the distance outside the hall with his eyes that were a little cloudy due to old age, took a deep breath and slowly spoke:
"This ...... It is the power of Winter Nightless to reverse the wheel of fortune. ”
