Chapter 49: Searching for the Book of Heaven
Luo Shiyu folded the clothes of the disciples of the Yuncheng Sect embroidered with six auspicious clouds on the pink collar and put them on the table in front of the master.
"Master, I don't know when we will see each other, please take care of your body. Luo Shiyu bent down deeply and withdrew from the courtyard of the master.
The head sighed and stroked the tactile fabric, and there was a rare sad emotion in his eyes.
The dead leaves outside fluttered and fell one by one, and the rising sun was obscured by the clouds, and only a few rays of sunlight could shine through the clouds and mist to reach the Cloud City Sect. Such a scene seems to be a portrayal of the Cloud City faction, lonely and hopeless.
"Master. When Bai Junxi came to the head of the room early in the morning, he saw that he was full of sadness, and there was a neatly folded female disciple's costume on the table, and a token was placed on it.
"You're here. This is your Bai Lingxin Senior Sister's clothes, put it away!" The head seemed to have aged for hundreds of years in an instant, with jet-black hair, but a few white hairs appeared at the sideburns.
"Master, junior sister, she also quit the sect?" probably experienced the departure of his favorite junior sister, Bai Junxi was not so sad about Bai Lingxin's departure.
"Hmm. The head sighed helplessly and said, "You go to the other elders to go to the main hall, and say that there is something important to discuss." β
"Yes. β
In the vast and empty Cloud Palace, only a few people sat on the upper seat to discuss.
From time to time, they sighed and discussed all the things that had been agreed upon. The next day, all the disciples were summoned to announce the matter.
"After the discussion between the head of this sect and the elders, from today onwards, Bai Junxi will become the acting head of the Yuncheng faction, and all affairs will be handled by him. β
"Bai Yanyou will become the elder of the Cloud City Sect, and Bai Lingxin is his fiancΓ©e. β
"Those who offend my Cloud City faction will be punished even if they are strong. β
Luo Shiyu had already gone away, she didn't know that the Cloud City Sect had not removed her, and had made her relationship with Bai Yanyou public, and her status in the Cloud City Sect was on par with that of the Elders.
She was now bent on rushing to Qingwen Villa to grab some treasure before Octavia arrived.
The important thing in Qingwen Villa is the word "ask", asking the heavens and the earth, this is their job. To put it simply, it is to predict the future and communicate with the gods of the Nine Heavens.
In the entire continent, only the owner of Qingwen Mountain Villa, the head of the Shen family, has this ability. And those who can be the head of the family are all Shen family members who can't cultivate but have the ability to predict. After the next successor reaches the age of five, the head of the family will lose the ability to predict, and then he can only assist the five-year-old young master.
Yes, when it comes to the ability to foresee, there is a preference for patriarchy, and only men have this ability.
Since he is a prophet, the only treasure he can possess is the Book of Heaven.
Luo Shiyu sat on the steps, leaning against the pillar, and looked faintly at the five or six-year-old boy in front of him flying a kite carefree.
Before she got close to Qingwen Villa, she met the next head of the Shen family in a small county town around her, and now she is only five or six years old Young Master Shen Zhen.
This child seems to really have the ability to predict, knowing that Luo Shiyu is here to find the book of heaven, and warmly invites her to come to Qingwen Villa to live for a few days.
The decision of the young master of the Shen family, no one in the villa can question it, and the current head of the family, who has the right to question, after his father asked a few words about this matter, he was sent away from asking no more.
Therefore, Luo Shiyu lived in the name of Xiaoyu Girl, and searched for the Book of Heaven everywhere in Qingwen Villa on the grounds of Shen Zhen.
She didn't dare to ask this little boy directly, don't think that he is easy to bully at a young age, he is very smart, he will tell her when someone comes, and he will cover for her. Luo Shiyu didn't ask him to do this from beginning to end.
But what made Luo Shiyu depressed was that the hiding place of the Book of Heaven was clearly written in the book, why was the Book of Heaven taken away when she went, and she didn't hear that Fang Rui had come, and it didn't look like someone had gone in.
Luo Shiyu frowned, watching Shen Zhen play with a kite very happily, and there were a few attendants and maidservants next to her, and no one cared about her.
But when she straightened up and wanted to slip away, Shen Zhen's gaze followed.
Calculate the time, and Octavia should come over. But Luo Shiyu didn't have any clues about Tianshu, so he couldn't help but be a little anxious. She decided to talk to the clever kid.
Shen Zhen finally got tired of playing, threw away the kite string, and ran to Luo Shiyu's side.
"Sister Xiaoyu, why don't you play anything?"
"I'm not in the mood to play. β
"You're always frowning, of course you're not in the mood. Shen Zhen stretched out her hand and put her little hand between Luo Shiyu's eyebrows to soothe her sorrow.
"You tell me it's ......"
"Sister Xiaoyu, I'm hungry, let's go eat!" Shen Zhen looked at Luo Shiyu innocently and interrupted what she was about to say.
"If you don't make it clear to me, then I won't play with you. Luo Shiyu is not in the mood to play with a child now, no matter how cute he is, he only feels bored in Luo Shiyu's eyes today.
Hatred takes root in her heart, and she can't see the beauty of the world.
Shen Zhen's little old man-like little hand was on his chin to think, and Luo Shiyu waited for him to think clearly with the last patience on the side. After a few moments, he told everyone else to retreat.
"I know that Sister Xiaoyu is here to find the Book of Heaven, and I also know that before my father lost his ability to prophesy, the person he saw who took the Book of Heaven was not my sister. β
Luo Shiyu was not surprised at all by what he said, in addition to knowing people's futures, the prophecy family also has a little ability to see through people's minds.
"So whose hands is the Book of Heaven in the end?"
Shen Zhen looked at Luo Shiyu meaningfully and said, "The secret of heaven must not be leaked. β
A child showed such a mature expression and said such a weak word, Luo Shiyu pinched his little face with both hands mercilessly.
"Don't pinch my handsome face, okay, okay, I'll tell you. Shen Zhen was forced to raise his hand and surrender.
Hearing that he was finally willing to give the book of heaven to himself, Luo Shiyu reluctantly withdrew his hand, and his face felt good when he pinched it.
Shen Zhen took Luo Shiyu's hand and took her back to the courtyard where she lived.
He drove all the people out of the yard, and then mysteriously walked under a big tree. Seeing this, Luo Shiyu immediately understood where the Book of Heaven was hidden by him.
The most common place for small children to hide something, under a tree.
I saw him go and get back a small shovel, and began to dig in the dirt under the tree. The child is not very strong, and it only takes a long time to dig about ten centimeters.
He was tired of digging, wiped his sweat with his sleeve, looked up and asked, "Why don't you come to help?"
Luo Shiyu replied with the old god: "Aren't you very happy to dig? I'm embarrassed to deprive you of interest." "Hmph, it took you so long to tell me where the Book of Heaven is.
Shen Zhen's mouth flattened, and he said: "The person who wants the book from heaven is you and not me, so I shouldn't be a coolie." He dropped the shovel and sat directly on the ground, clasped his hands around his chest, and raised his chin arrogantly to look at Luo Shiyu.
Such a cute picture, but it did not arouse Luo Shiyu's slightest excitement, her maternal love. She picked up the small shovel on the ground and began to shovel the soil, and a little more force would have caused a wound on her back.
So she only used a little more strength than Shen Zhen to shovel the soil, and the speed was not much faster than him.
"You're not very fast, aren't you!" Shen Zhen pursed his lips and taunted back.
Luo Shiyu's wrist flashed with blue light, and the pit suddenly became much bigger.
The little steamed bun couldn't look at it, and Zhihai in Luo Shiyu said: "Master, you don't have to make much effort, just let me dig it!"
Then she just shoveled it for example, in fact, it was the little steamed bun that was helping her with real qi, which really saved a lot of effort, and the wound on her back would not crack again.
Anyway, this five or six-year-old kid has no real anger, and he can't tell if she dug it up.
With the help of Xiao Steamed Bun, Luo Shiyu dug up two wooden boxes in a few minutes. The fifty-centimeter-high hole saw the roots of the big tree, and she had to wonder if someone had dug the hole for him.
"Who dug this hole?" asked Luo Shiyu.
"The third brother dug it for me. He didn't know what was in my box, though. Shen Zhen said triumphantly: "Let's put a box down, saying that we will wait for ten years to see it." So the third brother will never guess what I put it in, and he won't peek. β
"Even if your third brother really peeks, you don't know!" Luo Shiyu hit him lightly.
However, in the past few days that she has lived in Qingwen Villa, she has seen this third prince a few times, and she does look like an honest person. But I really didn't expect them to play the game of time.
"Hmph, the third brother won't. Shen Zhen's face tilted to the side, and he began to be arrogant again.
Luo Shiyu didn't bother to pay attention to him, and went straight to the top box, which had a delicate silver lock on it, which could only be opened with a key.
Shen Zhen's afterglow kept watching Luo Shiyu's every move, and he didn't speak anymore at this time, but his eyes flashed with anticipation.
"Where's the key?"
"Nope. β
After asking again, Luo Shiyu used his divine sense to ask Xiao Mantou to open the lock with true qi, but now time is precious, and he has no time to find the key. This looks like a small and delicate silver lock is not so easy to open, and the small steamed bun can't be opened with true qi, so use your divine sense to explore the structure of this lock.
"Master, the little steamed bun can't open this lock. It didn't take long for Luo Shiyu's sea of knowledge to sound the voice of the little steamed bun's grievances.
There was also a wooden box in the pit, which was unlocked when it was taken out, but when it was opened, it was empty. Luo Shiyu looked at the length, width and height of the box, and then compared the length, width and height inside, and understood that this box has a mechanism, no wonder it doesn't need to be locked.
"Get it out. β
She handed the empty box to Shen Zhen, Shen Zhen continued to turn his head, and said arrogantly, "Why should I help you take it out?"
She frowned, threatening words on her lips, but she couldn't say anything when she saw the afterglow of his sneaking back.
After waiting for a long time, Shen Zhen didn't hear Luo Shiyu speak, snorted a few times, took the empty box, and began to help her untie the mechanism.
The lid is ajar open and closed a little more, then a few more presses on the side of the box, opening and closing again. Over and over again, Shen Zhen's little hands moved around the box, finally showing the contents of the box.
A worn-out book lay quietly in a box, with not a word on the cover.
"Wordless Heavenly Book?"
"Young Master, the Demon Cultivator is here. β
When Luo Shiyu wanted to pick up the book, a maidservant girl hurriedly came in to report.
