Just when Tang Yan sighed that happiness was coming too quickly, Xu Chen pulled her up again, as if he felt that his movements were a little excessive, his face was flushed, and he said, "I'm sorry! Yan'er! I'm a little excited." ”

Perhaps out of displeasure, Tang Yan's face sank and said, "Hmph! ”

At this time, I saw that Xu Chen's ashamed face was replaced by excitement again, and he took the star and gestured in front of Tang Yan, "Look! This is a hexagram, and the so-called 'dust' word left by Uncle Wu is actually not a word at all, but a hexagram with a vertical." That's why the two dots of the word 'dust' will seem a little flat. ”

"Oh!"

Tang Yan didn't show any excitement, and said coldly: "What's wrong with that?"

Xu Chen, who was originally excited, froze there all of a sudden, "That's right! What can I do if I know it's a hexagram! What does that vertical stand for? Maybe Uncle Wu didn't finish painting and ...... it."

While thinking distractedly, Xu Chen sat back in his chair.

Xu Chen's mind kept thinking about the pattern next to Lao Wu's corpse, and suddenly felt that the fog was even thicker.

"What the hell does this mean!"

I don't know how long it took, Xu Chen slapped the table angrily, he hated his stupidity.

Tang Yan looked at Xu Chen with pity, her eyes were as soft as water, "Brother Xu Chen, don't be too anxious, think slowly, maybe you can think of it tomorrow!"

Xu Chen ignored Tang Yan's comfort, his spirit still couldn't be freed from that pattern.

Although Xu Chen didn't understand what the whole pattern meant, his intuition told him that no matter what, at least that pattern had an inseparable relationship with the hexagram.

He raised his head thoughtfully, looked at Tang Yan and said, "Yan'er, if it were you, what would a hexagram make you think of?"

saw Tang Yan pouting.

For her, the first thing she thought of when she saw the hexagram was naturally Xu Chen, but looking at Xu Chen's serious expression, she knew that this was not the time to joke, so she shook her head and said, "I don't know!"

Xu Chen lowered his head again, Tang Yan was a girl, of course he was not very familiar with these things, he secretly scolded himself in his heart for rushing to the doctor.

However, just when he was helpless, Tang Yan said: "But, Brother Xu Chen, maybe you can think about where there are some such patterns, that is, the obvious kind, I am talking nonsense, but maybe you can give it a try." ”

Xu Chen nodded, but he didn't care in his heart, where would there be such a pattern, this was the first time he had seen such a pattern. At this moment, he suddenly thought, "Yes, the pattern left by Uncle Wu is naturally the first time I have seen it, but the pattern of the hexagram is found in many places." ”

Thinking about it, Xu Chenwu said in a voice, "Where will there be a pattern of exchanging hexagrams?

"Square!"

Xu Chen and Tang Yan said these two words almost at the same time.

The backyard square of the Xu family is a huge gossip pattern, so there will naturally be a hexagram in it.

But Tang Yanyou shook his head, "Brother Xu Chen! No, although there is a pattern of hexagram redemption on the Xu family's square, how can the square be related to Uncle Wu's death?"

"Yes! It is indeed unlikely that the square has anything to do with Uncle Wu's death. ”

Xu Chen's face was calm, "However, where is there some secret hidden, when Uncle Wu died, he didn't necessarily want to tell others who killed him, but wanted to tell some secrets that other people didn't know." ”

As he spoke, Xu Chen recalled what Lao Wu had said to him that night, and he vaguely remembered that Lao Wu said that he would tell him the secrets of his mother and the Eight Great Clans in the future, and the latter would wait for him to die.

"Anyway, it's possible, the square is such a conspicuous place that it doesn't seem like a good place to hide secrets. However, Uncle Wu is so mysterious, and naturally understands that the more dangerous the place, the safer it is, so there is a great possibility!"

Xu Chen kept explaining to Tang Yan, in fact, he was just comforting himself in his heart, this kind of thinking was too strange, who knows if it would really be like this?

Tang Yan didn't understand what Xu Chen was saying at all, so she just nodded stupidly.

"I believe so!"

Suddenly, Xu Chen's eyes lit up and said, "Maybe the extra vertical on that pattern is a cut hair, Uncle Wu wants to say that it is next to or below the hexagram." Yes, the floor of the square is paved with marble stones, maybe just below that. ”

Xu Chen couldn't hold back his excitement anymore, "Yan'er, it's time for me to go!"

As he spoke, Xu Chen slowly stood up.

Tang Yan looked at it stupidly, there were too many unspeakable words in her heart, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally said worriedly: "Do you want to go back to Xu Mansion now?"

Xu Chen nodded firmly.

"If they're looking for you now, aren't you throwing yourself into the net?" Tang Yan was also a little excited.

Looking at Tang Yan's worried expression, Xu Chen tried his best to squeeze out a meaningful smile and said: "Crow's mouth, don't worry, I'll be fine, if this is true, then since I can guess correctly, then others may also be able to guess [eight] nine is not far from ten, if someone else finds the answer first......"

Speaking of this, Xu Chen paused, and he suddenly thought that he shouldn't have told Tang Yan about this, because this was a secret that belonged to his mother.

"Okay! I'll be fine anyway!"

Xu Chen settled down and said, "By the way, do you have a steel sword here?" ”

"Alas!"

Although Tang Yan was a little reluctant, she knew that she couldn't stop her, so she slowly came to her bedside and took out a short sword from under the quilt.

The children of the major families have a tradition of cultivation, and the Tang family is naturally no exception, although Tang Yan does not like to dance with knives and guns, and his cultivation is not high, but there are many good guys.

Tang Yan came to Xu Chen with affection and handed the short sword to Xu Chen's hand, "You have to come back to me when you finish your business, okay?"

Xu Chen knew that Tang Yan cared about him, so he nodded in agreement, but who knows what the outcome would be? Most of the information left by Lao Wu would not be the murderer, if it was discovered, he would be imprisoned forever, or ...... He didn't dare to think about it.

"Alright! I'm leaving!"

Xu Chen said in a deep voice, pushed the door and walked out, taking advantage of the night, according to the way he came, and climbed over the wall again.

"You said you would marry me when you grow up, but you probably forgot about it, right?"

Tang Yan looked at the night sky and said stupidly. She knew that maybe it was just ignorant nonsense when she was a child, and she and Xu Chen were brother and sister, even if it was a cousin, it was a taboo.

However, perhaps it is precisely because of this taboo that she will not be able to forget for a long time, right?

......

In fact, after Xu Chen kidnapped Elder Sun and escaped from Xu's mansion, Xu Zijie never sent anyone to track down his whereabouts. Maybe I think I can't trace it, maybe it's some other reason. Some swordsmen in the mansion secretly said that Xu Chen's escape was planned by Xu Zijie.

So much so that in the early hours of the morning.

Xu Chen finally came to the backyard wall of Xu's house, which was originally his home, but at this time, he could only come secretly like a thief.

He repeated his old tricks, jumped up, and came to the backyard of the Xu Mansion. In fact, in Xu's Mansion, no matter day or night, there are swordsmen patrolling and guarding the courtyard, after all, it is a big family, and its reputation is outside, and it is not afraid of thieves stealing but afraid of thieves.

However, in the final analysis, Xu Chen still lived here, and he knew that those patrolling swordsmen generally did not come to the backyard, because in addition to the square, there were only some flowers and plants left, and there were nothing valuable.

Even so, Xu Chen hid in a shadow and observed for a long time, confirming that no one else was there, and then came to the square.

Bagua is divided into innate gossip and acquired gossip, and the order of the two hexagrams is not the same. On Xujia Square is a pattern of innate gossip, which is all too familiar to a cultivator.

The innate gossip is also known as the Fuxi gossip, which is said to be made by the Fuxi view of things, and its hexagram is in the southeast corner.

Xu Chen came to the southeast corner of the square lightly, and by the hazy moonlight, he finally found the pattern of the hexagram.

The area of Xujia Square is huge, so for the sake of beauty, when the square was built, the pattern was also compared, and each hexagram was composed of four marble stones, which was extremely beautiful.

Xu Chen looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see anything special, and he was even more convinced that Lao Wu should have pressed something under the stone.

Due to the extremely strict requirements for the construction of the square, the gap between the stones was extremely narrow, and it was not so easy to lift the stones again.

Xu Chen slowly pulled out the short sword at his waist, and used the tip of the sword to keep slashing between the stones. After a while, most of the mud and sand that I saw in the gap were scratched away.

He thrust the tip of his sword into the gap again, tilting it upwards vigorously, but the stone, though it looked large, was not as thick as he had imagined.

A moment later, with a rustling sound, the stones rose in response.

However, to Xu Chen's disappointment, there was only black dirt under the stones, and nothing else. In desperation, Xu Chen lifted the other three stones at once, and then dug up the soil with a short sword, but finally found nothing.

Xu Chen gasped and sat on the ground. He firmly believed that Lao Wu would definitely keep something for himself, so his head kept flashing with that strange pattern.

"What does that stand on the other side?"

Xu Chen instantly denied this speculation, because in that case, Lao Wu should have drawn the opposite hexagram before he died, and there was no need to do anything else.

Just as Xu Chen was pondering, he didn't notice that a figure was slowly walking from the opposite side.

The figure's face was filled with excitement and an eerie murderous intent.

"Xu Chen, I knew you would come back!"
