Tibetan poems are a type of miscellaneous poems.

Reading the first word of each sentence together can convey a specific message.

"South Gate Shadow Wall" is the hidden mystery of this poem on the flower paper.

A qualified Tibetan poem must not only be simply embedded, but also require the poem itself to have its own meaning - in this way, the reader will be attracted by the meaning of the poem and inadvertently ignore the inlay at the beginning of the sentence.

For example, Xu Wei, a literati of the Ming Dynasty, wrote a poem when he faced the beautiful scenery of the autumn moon on the Pinghu Lake when he visited the West Lake:

"The Pinghu Lake is full of autumn, and the lake is misty and the water flows for a long time. The autumn moon is full and there are few in the world, and the four seasons of the moon are the most suitable for autumn. ”

Even if you ignore its inlays, it is an excellent poem for writing scenery.

…………

"I really hate these sour rotten literati!"

When Chu Fengge figured it out, he couldn't help but scold.

He'd rather carry a sword and fight with a hundred demon wheels than play a damn word game here.

Gu Xu smiled: "Now that we know the address, let's hurry over!" If we don't reach the South Gate Shadow Wall in a quarter of an hour, I'm afraid those terrible monsters will appear. ”

"Let's go!" Chu Fengge nodded.

The ghosts in the murderous mansion left too deep a psychological shadow on him. He really didn't want to see them again.

…………

So, the two of them followed the path they had walked again, passed through the Hanging Flower Gate, and returned to the shadow wall.

At this moment, the gate of the Lu Mansion has long disappeared without a trace.

The walls of the courtyard have long since turned into ice sculptures, shining with a cold light.

Gu Xu saw two frozen corpses in the corner of the wall - looking at the hideous and desperate expressions of the corpses, he should have tried to escape from the mansion by climbing over the wall before, but he was unsuccessful.

Then Gu Xu turned his head and carefully observed the "South Gate Shadow Wall".

On the mural on its front, a group of brightly dressed dignitaries sat around a long table in the garden, drinking and chatting and laughing, looking happy.

And Gu Xu also recognized the identities of some of them-

The beautiful woman sitting in the middle with a plump figure, gorgeous makeup, and a pregnant woman is Mrs. Lu, the housewife of the Lu family and the president of the "Hundred Flowers Poetry Society";

The plainly dressed, white-lipped, and gentle young woman beside her was a young lady from the Chen family of Xiangyang, a gate valve, named Chen Anzhi - don't look at her in this portrait, her current identity is the queen of the Great Qi Dynasty, the biological mother of the fourth prince and Princess Zhaoning;

……

But the most eye-catching of them is Lu Shiyao, who is sitting on the edge of the long table.

Its black hair is like ink, plain clothes are like snow, and it is beautiful, like a hibiscus out of water.

As if outlined in black and white ink, it looks a little out of place on this thick and colorful mural.

However, her eyes were detached, and there was not the slightest smile on her face, giving people the feeling of being rejected thousands of miles away.

…………

Just as Gu Xu was pondering how to enter the mural world, he suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice behind him: "Are you also here to participate in the 'Hundred Flowers Poetry Club'?" ”

Gu Xu immediately turned around.

I saw a middle-aged man in a brocade robe, a short beard, slightly white sideburns, elegant and handsome, striding towards them.

This middle-aged man has a hearty smile on his face, which seems to make him involuntarily feel good.

After seeing this person's face clearly, Gu Xu couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.

If the information is correct, this person should have died during the raid fifteen years ago.

But now, he not only appeared in front of Gu Xu, but also had the aura of True Yuan fluctuations on his body.

In addition, he didn't have any weird reactions in the face of Gu Xu's [Soul Summoning Body].

"Is this guy a human or a ghost?"

Gu Xu quietly took out a copper coin and tried to divination.

Then he unfolded his palm.

The copper coin is face up.

This obviously shows that the middle-aged man in front of him is a human, not a ghost.

"It's really weird," Gu Xu thought to himself silently, "I didn't expect that after fifteen years, this person is still alive and well in this Lu family's murderous mansion." ”

"Who are you?" At this time, Chu Fengge next to him asked.

"Calm Tang Hui in front of the Great Qi Exorcism Division," the middle-aged man bowed his head slightly and said politely, "The two should also be the monks of our Great Qi Exorcism Division, right?" ”

He obviously noticed that Chu Fengge was wearing the "Qiyao Suit" on his body.

"Tang Hui...... Aren't you already dead? Chu Fengge frowned.

The middle-aged man who called himself "Tang Hui" smiled slightly: "I did almost die at the beginning. Fortunately, I brought the 'Qincha Token' given to me by the emperor, which allowed me to barely save my life. It's a pity that I'm trapped in this murderous mansion and can't get out. ”

Chu Fengge will be skeptical.

Tang Hui paused for a moment and then spoke, "If I'm not mistaken, you should have just entered this murderous mansion, right?" I've been in this mansion for more than a decade, and I know it well, so I might be able to provide you with some useful information. ”

Chu Fengge didn't speak.

Gu Xu took a step forward and said with a smile: "Then thank you Lord Tang!" ”

He knew that the information Tang Hui had given them was not necessarily true.

Even, the person in front of him is not necessarily the real Tang Hui.

But even if it's false information, there may be real clues hidden in it – better than figuring around with their eyes closed, as they are now.

…………

So Tang Hui cleared his throat and began to introduce:

"You should know that Lu's heirloom 'Jinghong Pen' has the ability to manifest the artistic conception of poetry and painting.

"The real Lu Mansion was destroyed by a fire fifteen years ago.

"The murderous mansion we are in is actually a painting of 'Shocking Brush'.

"The front of this painting is a beautiful picture of the Lu family playing and entertaining many years ago; But if you go around to the back of the shadow wall, you will see a picture of the horrific and cruel 'Ice Hell'.

"Whenever the sound of the flute sounds, the content of these two paintings will be switched, and the environment of the entire Lu Mansion will change accordingly."

Hearing his words, Gu Xu walked behind the shadow wall, and sure enough, he saw the "Ice Hell" picture that Tang Hui said.

The painting is surrounded by icebergs and covered with snow.

The figure in the painting is naked, with frost on his eyebrows, white lips and trembling teeth, his hands on his knees, and he is shrinking so much that his muscles and bones are contracting.

Beside them, there were a number of hideous-looking ghosts armed with chains and whips.

At this moment, Gu Xu remembered what Chen Jisheng said to Chu Fengge when he participated in the promotion assessment last month:

"This murderous house is uninhabited, but it makes strange noises – the sound of a silk bamboo orchestra during the day, and the howl of ghosts and wolves at night."

"No wonder." Gu Xu said secretly.

Then he asked Tang Hui: "Lord Tang, why did the 'Thrilling Brush' leave such a painting here?" ”

Tang Hui replied: "Because after the death of its previous owner, Lu Shiyao, it is now ownerless. It uses these two paintings to set a lot of tests in order to find a new owner.

"You should know that the selection of famous instruments has its own set of standards. For example, 'Tai'a Sword' will look for the strongest person among the royals, while 'Thrilling Brush' will pass a series of tests to find the most talented.

"You should have seen a little girl dressed in white just now - she is the spirit of the 'Amazing Pen'. When she hands you the invitation to the Poetry Society, it means that the test has begun.

"'Hundred Flowers Poetry Society' is the first level you will participate in.

"If you successfully complete the level in the 'Hundred Flowers Poetry Society', you will get clues about the next test.

"If you fail in this challenge, you will be trapped in the 'Ice Hell' forever and tormented."

"It sounds really terrible," Gu Xu complained, "The aura of this 'Shocking Pen' is a bit heavy!" ”

He finally knew where the monk who had disappeared in the mansion had gone.

It is estimated that it was because he did not pass those tests and was trapped in the 'Ice Hell' and couldn't get out.

Hearing his words, Tang Hui also sighed: "Alas, the main thing is that its previous master died miserably, which made it have some desire for revenge......

"You must know that among the 'Twelve Famous Instruments', the 'Thrilling Pen' should be the most picky one. It would rather not have a master and be shelved for a long time, rather than choose a master at will.

"But whatever it thinks it is, it will be loyal and dead-hearted. If the owner is killed, it will also try to avenge the owner. ”

"It turned out to be blackened." Gu Xu glanced at the cruel and terrifying "Ice Hell" mural and came to a conclusion.

"But you don't have to worry too much," Tang Hui continued, "With the help of the 'Qincha Token' given to me by the Emperor, I have built a shelter in the northwest corner tower of this murderous mansion, and neither the cold nor the evil spirits can enter.

"There have been many monks who have failed in the past to take refuge there.

"If you fail in the challenge, you can go there as well - I can't send you out of the mansion, but at least I can keep you safe."

"Then you'll have to trouble Lord Tang then!" Gu Xu said politely, "In addition, I would like to ask Lord Tang, how should we participate in this 'Hundred Flowers Poetry Society'?" ”

Tang Hui replied: "It's very simple. Just touch the wall with your flower note. ”

Gu Xu did so.

Although what this self-proclaimed "Tang Hui" said was not necessarily true, or not necessarily all true.

But Gu Xu knows very well that participating in the "Hundred Flowers Poetry Society" is the only choice he can make at present.

At this time, the mournful sound of the cave flute sounded again.

The environment inside the Lu family's murderous mansion has changed again.
