Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Secret of Mirroring Flowers and Water Moons
After sending Yu Kuang away, Xu Beiyou sat alone in the side hall, behind him was a huge mural that occupied the entire wall, in the painting, the sky was dark, and a cyan dragon rolled between the clouds and mist, the gas was hideous, and the whole mural was magnificent.

Painting the dragon without permission is the sin of transgression, but far away from the temple's rivers and lakes and the major sects that live above the rivers and lakes have never cared about these, it is said that this mural is Gongsun Zhongmou's young drunken rise of the work, the whole painting in one go, after the painting, only feel that there is a sword in the painting winding and galloping, there is a sword intent full of forest.
Xu Beiyou turned around and looked at the huge mural, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know who to say.
In the process of a man's growth, there is a role that is indispensable and replaced, it can be a father and brother, or a teacher, they will teach you the necessary means of survival and philosophy in this world.
Even after a man has been able to establish himself in the world, when he encounters certain things, he still hopes that there will be someone who can say two or three things.
Xu Beiyou has a lot of things to say, but looking at his side, there are almost all women's army, and some things are not suitable to say to them, even if Zhang Xueyao is the same, he wants to say these things to Gongsun Zhongmou or Han Xuan, but unfortunately these two are not around.
No one can say two or three, this is a great hardship in life.
Xu Beiyou looked at this green dragon and stood silently for a long time, since no one can say two or three, then don't say it, press it in the bottom of your heart, and don't vomit.
Just when he wanted to turn around and leave, he suddenly found that this majestic green dragon only had one complete eye, and the other eye was snow-white.
Xu Beiyou's heart moved, and he flicked his fingers. Although he didn't have half of his qi now, there was still a wisp of Zhuxian sword qi stored in the inexplicable sword, and after this wisp of Zhuxian sword qi shot out, it just hit the incomplete dragon eye.
Finishing touch.
In an instant, the green dragon seemed to come to life and began to swim on the walls, and as the green dragon swam, the mural began to change.
First the clouds cleared, and then the clouds cleared.
In the end, there was no green dragon and no clouds, and a sword-shaped groove appeared in the wall.
After Xu Beiyou probably compared it, he took out his master's saber Xuanming and put it into this groove.
I saw that the entire wall began to move slowly, and with a banging sound, an entrance to the underground appeared in front of Xu Beiyou.
Xu Beiyou looked towards the entrance, only to see the first-class stone steps winding downward, and there were huge night pearls hanging on both sides of the passage wall, and it was not half dark and dim.
Xu Beiyou muttered, "Could it be that the small attic in the Houfu is just a trick to confuse outsiders, and this is the real retreat place of the master?"
Xu Beiyou hesitated for a moment and then stepped into it.
I don't know how long this downward stone path is, and I don't know how long it is, and I don't know if it's up and down, left and right, or east, south, west, or north. Xu Beiyou silently counted the steps, and when he counted to three hundred and sixty-five, his eyes suddenly opened up.
At this moment, he almost had an illusion, because he found himself walking back into the side hall, behind him was still the wall painted with the green dragon, and under the wall was the entrance he had just walked out.
However, after he walked out of the side hall, he immediately found something strange, the scene outside was still Gongsun Mansion, but it was empty, not only people, not even other creatures such as flowers, plants, birds, insects, etc., there was a dead silence.
As for the outside of Gongsun Mansion, it is a chaotic nothingness.
This is not Gongsun Mansion, not even Jiangdu, but a "mirror world" exactly the same as Gongsun Mansion.
is the so-called mirror flower water moon, mirror flower, water moon, although similar, but after all, it is illusory.
This is a small world created by the great magic power of Sumeru mustard seeds, and no one has come for many years, and I am afraid that even Zhang Xueyao does not know the existence of this place.
However, this small world itself is a huge treasure.
Xu Beiyou knew that if he wanted to maintain the long-term existence of such a small world, there must be a treasure as the "eye of the array", but he didn't know what treasure the master left here.
Xu Beiyou began to wander around aimlessly, and it took about two hours to walk up and down the entire mansion, and finally found a letter that Gongsun Zhongmou had already written in the study.
This letter was actually written to the head of the Taoist sect, Qiuye, and the content of the letter also shocked Xu Beiyou.
The letter mentions a past incident, which is that two strangers in the extreme west came to Zhongdu through the Mobei grassland, and were taken under the command of Emperor Xiao, who was only the king of the northwest at that time
, but the woman stayed.
Later, Emperor Xiao entered the south, attacking the city, the woman's improved cannon in the capital can be called invincible, after Emperor Xiao ascended the throne, in order to show his merits, he specially named this foreign woman as a viscount, and this woman did not return to her hometown throughout her life, and finally died in the imperial capital.
According to Gongsun Zhongmou, in fact, the man returned to the Central Plains again as early as the second year of Huanglong, and traveled back and forth between the Central Plains and the Far West many times in the following decades, but he never met Emperor Xiao, but had several secret meetings with Xiao Jin, the king of Wei, and assumed the pseudonym Xiao Lin, hiding in the world and having many schemes.
For decades, Xiao Lin's accumulation of strength, and Xiao Jin's secret and vigorous support, have been extremely difficult to control.
After Gongsun Zhongmou inadvertently learned of this situation, he thought that Xiao Jin seemed to be suspected of luring a wolf into the house, so he wrote this letter, wanting to ask the head of the Taoist sect Qiu Ye to come forward to investigate the matter, and remove Xiao Lin from the Dao Sect, who ruled the world's monks.
The letter was signed on the first day of the first month of the tenth year of Chengping, that is, the year when Gongsun Zhongmou went to Xiaofangzhai for the first time to visit Han Xuan and met Xu Beiyou.
It's just that for some reason, Gongsun Zhongmou didn't deliver the letter to Akiba's hands, but left it here.
Many things have become confused accounts that no one can tell with the hasty death of Gongsun Zhongmou, just like this letter, the letter mentions a character named Xiao Lin, but Xu Beiyou has never heard of this person, whether it is Zhang Xueyao, Qin Mumian, or Zhang Wuxi, Murong Xuanyin and others, they have never said that there is such a character in the world, it seems that he is just a character made up by Gongsun Zhongmou.
However, Gongsun Zhongmou would never do this kind of thing, so there is only one possibility, this character with the pseudonym Xiao Lin is very hidden, not only from the eyes of the imperial court, but also from the eyes of countless monks in the world, hiding in the shadows, just like Mr. Fu back then, turning clouds and rain behind the scenes.
In addition, the letter also mentioned a big man, different from Xiao Lin, this big man can be described as a big name, no one knows it, when he and Wanyan Beiyue, Autumn Leaves and called the three great immortals, born to know, known as precocious wisdom, but at the age of ten with his father and brother to compete for the world, after the title of King of Wei, monopolize the overseas Wei State, almost as an independent country.
His Majesty the current emperor once said to his confidants in private that the minister had three major troubles, and these three major worries were all his close relatives, namely his uncle Xiao Jin, his uncle Lin Han, and his teacher Lan Yu.
It can be seen from this that what kind of character Xiao Jin, King of Wei, is, by no means the prince of Taiping, but a heroic figure who makes Emperor Xiao jealous.
If it is true, as Gongsun Zhongmou said in the letter, it was Xiao Jin who single-handedly supported Xiao Lin, then the deep meaning is intriguing.
This heroic prince once bluntly said that all he wanted in this life was to want a white hat.
He is already a king in his own right, and if he wears a white hat again, he will be a king.
The meaning is obvious, but no one dares to pierce it.
Xu Beiyou put down the secret letter, thinking of Xiao Lin, who made the master also jealous, and there was a slight chill behind him.
At this point, he thought that he knew enough about this river and lake, but now it seems that the rivers and lakes he has touched are just the tip of the iceberg.
The rivers and lakes can never be separated from the temple, and the rivers and lakes will eventually divide the victory and defeat in the temple.
