Gui Mu lay in Su's house for a few days, and during this period, Su Bohuai and Su Yaqin each came once.

Yaqin just asked him about the practice of meditation, and then talked about what happened after Guimu left the restaurant, and he heard that Mr. Zeng was envious.

Su Bohuai came to him, but he just thanked him, but his face was expressionless, which made people uncomfortable.

Today, there was a knock on the door, and a sweet voice came from outside the door.

"Mr. Zeng, are you there?"

Katsuragi opened the door of the room and saw a girl, holding a black ancient book in both hands, her eyes were bright, and she looked very delicate. It was Su Yaqin.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Hmm!"

There is a large lake in the backyard of the Su family, which is said to have been moved by the Su family with great means. There are some pavilions built in the lake, but no one rests here on weekdays.

Today, for the first time, someone came here, and they stayed for a long time.

"Mr. Zeng, have you ever heard of the 'Wenlin Society'?"

Katsuragi shook his head.

"I want to hear about it. ”

Su Yaqin lowered her head and sorted out her thoughts, and then said slowly.

"It is held every three years to commemorate the first director of the bookstore. The talented men and women in Aoba Castle will gather in the Cultural Square on that day to write poems. ”

"Hmm!"

"It sounds boring", the second half of the sentence, Katsuragi still didn't say it. Su Yaqin looked at Guimu.

"Mr. Zeng is very talented, and his understanding of books is even more amazing, so maybe he can go there and have a look. ”

"Well, I wonder when this conference will take place?"

"Autumn every three years, that is, the day after tomorrow. ”

"Thank you, Miss Yaqin, I'll go over there and have a look then. ”

"Well, sir is gracious. ”

After the two said goodbye, Gui Mu quietly left the Su family alone, and he followed the direction of his memory to the book house that Su Yaqin brought him to that day. Su Yaqin's words reminded him that he should come to this bookstore to take a look.

Katsuragi spun around from the first floor, then sneaked up to the second floor. The second floor is very large, but there is very little to put in.

There are no giant books tens of meters high, and there are no complex ancient characters. Here are just some simple words about a person's life.

The walls are surrounded by his portrait and some of his life stories. Katsura walked to a bookshelf placed in the center of the second floor, looked around, and found that there was no one, so he started to move.

He crouched down and pressed his hands on the floor, and in an instant, the entire second floor shook. The books on the shelves all floated in the air, and the surrounding walls were filled with images glowing with a soft purple glow.

Black lettering fell from the pages and surrounded the Katsunaku. The black font in the sky was finally painted into a large gate, standing in the void on the second floor. Guimu looked at the magnificent ancient gate composed of words, and his eyes were a little complicated.

Guimu jumped up lightly, stepped on the only two steps of the ancient gate, and touched his hand on the inky gate. There was no loud noise, it was so simple to open for this teenager.

He walked in, and the door dissipated, and the portraits on the walls returned to calm, and the books were still neatly placed on the shelves, as if the scene had never been seen before.

The world inside the door was white, and occasionally a few black ancient characters drifted by. In front of the cinnamon tree, there is an old tree, its leaves are white, the branches are transparent, and outsiders can clearly see the blood vessels presented inside.

"Hello, friend, welcome to my spiritual world. ”

Katsuragi stopped under the tree and listened to its words, for he knew that this was the last thought he had left to the world.

"When you come here, it's proof that I'm no longer in this world. I love this land as much as I never owned it. ”

"On this land, ordinary creatures live very hard, they struggle in the world, and they survive in the troubled times. But the concept of history will not be erased in the end, they (she) have become vassals of the strong, there is no freedom, there is no life, they (she) have no goal of life, but they are afraid of death, every day is afraid, what will happen tomorrow?"

"I wish I could make a change, calm down, stop being as irritable as I used to be, I can't change the world, but I can change my world. ”

"I built a castle called Aoba. Here I tried to push my idea of equality, but no one wanted to support me, many people were resisting, I didn't know if I was doing the right thing, I wavered. ”

"In my darkest time, I met a little girl. She is cute-looking, full of sunshine and energy. The little girl asked me if I wanted to eat candy, and I answered. She took a small piece of candy from her dirty clothes and handed it to me. I took it, and she smiled at me, and at that moment, I really felt like it was the most beautiful thing in the world. ”

"I stood up again, this time my methods were no longer soft, I suppressed all the resistance by force, so that they were afraid of me, afraid of me. On the day of the implementation, I saw a smile under the city, which was sunshine and vitality. I hope that one day they can be like green leaves, facing the sun, chasing their goals. ”

"When I was about to leave the city I had built with my own hands, I hesitated because the place I was going to was dangerous and I might never come back. I sat at the head of the city for the past few days, watching the people in the streets, some of them looking tired, some of them cold, some of them smiling, but I knew they wouldn't worry about tomorrow. ”

"I left the city and went to a far away place, I didn't know what would be waiting for me there, but I knew that somewhere in the universe, there was a city that had been waiting for its lord. ”

"Thank you, friend, for being willing to listen to the nagging of an old man like me, it's really troublesome. ”

The words fell, and there was no more sound. Guimu looked at the old tree and took out a rough square box from his body, on which was engraved a line of small characters 'Three Years of Autumn'. He placed the box under the old tree. It was its lord, and he had returned.

Katsuragi knew the first lord of Aoba Castle, when he was still relatively young, but he was already an old man. The place where the old man went was far away, the battlefield of the heavens at the center of the universe. At that time, Gui Mu practiced the "Life and Death Sutra" for the first time, and his soul was out of his body, and he didn't know how far he swam, until one day, the old man woke himself up. He stayed with this old man for a long time. Until that day, he finally fell. Beside him, there was only Katsura Mu. Because of the protection of the Taishang, he can walk out of the battlefield of the heavens very safely, but the old man can't, he still has something to protect.

"Little one, if I die, can you take my ashes back to that city and tell it that I miss it. ”

The old man didn't tell Katsuragi where the city was, maybe he didn't even think about going back, maybe he just wanted the little guy to hear his old man's last words.

Guimu put down the urn, closed his hands, and bowed three times very seriously, he is not from this world, he just happened to pass by, and just stopped, just like Guimu.

At this time, the old tree emitted a soft white light, and its body turned into little particles of light, gradually dissipating in this space. When it disappeared completely, a glimmer of light fell into Katsunaku's hand, which was the seed of 'hope', which was also the old man's last gift to him.

"Thank you!"

Katsuragi disappeared into the space. There was a fluctuation in the void on the second floor of the bookstore, and a person fell from it and slammed it to the ground.

"It hurts. ”

Katsuragi touched his ass and slowly stood up. He bowed to the second floor of the study house, and then left. However, what Katsuragi didn't know was that in a hidden space on the second floor, there were still a pair of eyes.

————

In the past few days, in order to hold the Wenlin Meeting, all the people in the city have been busy, and some people from the three major families have also been sent over, not to mention those small families, and the guards in the clan have basically been sent over.

The streets are lit up with lights, and banners are unfurled. The small advertisements posted in front of the store have been turned into Wenlin Club.

At this time, Katsuragi, who had been walking around the city for a while, got a map from somewhere. He checked his position, confirmed it over and over again, and finally came to the Shuyan Trading House.

Although it is a commercial house, it does not have a sense of splendor. In front of the commercial bank, an artificial river channel was made, surrounding the entire book inkstone, the floor was ordinary bluestone, the water column in front of the door was very clear, and the cinnamon wood touched it with his hand, which was a little hot.

The door of the merchant house was open, and there were some beautiful maids on both sides, but they were reserved in their movements and neat and conservative in their clothes.

"Welcome, childe. ”

One of the maids walked out and came to the front of Katsuragi. He nodded slightly, in response. The maid led him into this huge trading house.

There are a variety of goods inside, such as the place where Katsuragi is now located, which is a food court. It's not like a hawker out there, and it's not like a restaurant. They have their own shop, but it's small, and it's lined with delicious food, and every one of them feels delicious. The pavement is clean, and so is the road underfoot.

"Zeng Gongzi, this is an oily ear roll, made with high-quality vegetable oil and thin noodles from the royal family, which is crispy and delicious but not greasy. ”

Katsuragi looked at this thing and swallowed his saliva unconsciously. The beautiful maid on the side looked at this young man, very quiet, she was just responsible for introducing these things, whether to buy them or not, the choice was still in the hands of the customer.

Eventually, he bought a few copies.

"Sister Beauty, is the space-time bone boat on your side full now?"

"Not yet, do you want my sister to take you over to have a look? ”

"Well, thank you, sister. ”

The service staff here of Shuyan Commercial Bank are more humane and will not be entangled in small rules. When Katsuragi called 'Sister Beauty, Sister Beauty', she felt a little happy, and her tone of voice couldn't help but become soft.

The maid led Katsura for a long distance to a huge open-air square. There are a lot of people here, and in order not to cause chaos, Shuyan has divided into two lanes here, one out and one in.

The moment he entered, Katsuragi saw a huge round wheel standing in the center of the square, and in the middle of the round wheel, exuding an aura of destruction.

At this moment, the space inside the wheel suddenly fluctuated, and a huge bone boat slowly passed out of the wheel and finally floated above the square.

"What a cow!"

Katsura Mu silently gave a thumbs up, and the maid sister on the side pursed her lips and chuckled. It's so beautiful to her, it's to people.
