Xie Yuan looked at the quaint bronze candlestick in his hand, and his corresponding information appeared in his mind.
The book of the black sky, the candlestick of the true shadow.
It turns out another page of the book of black heaven.
Xie Yuan looked calm, but just looked at the newly obtained treasure carefully.
The candlestick looks like a cup, green all over, and has an ancient and clumsy shape, not the modern style.
The candlestick was in Wu Daoji's hands and there was a little wick lit up. Xie Yuan could see clearly, but at this time there was nothing.
How strangely, even if the candlestick is empty, there is still a warm and bright light on the candlestick. When you look closely, there seems to be a vague candle shadow and wick, which seems to be there or not, and as transparent as a shadow.
Xie Yuan stared at him for a moment, and gradually felt mysterious, as if he could see himself in the candle shadow.
He calmed down and realized in his heart that this true shadow candlestick was a black heavenly book related to spiritual consciousness.
As the light flashed, the surrounding environment changed quietly.
The cave is still the same cave, and the study room is still the same, but Xie Yuan saw the stone gate appear again when he came.
Although it has been closed, it is still there at least.
I stood in the middle of the cave for no reason, holding a candlestick in my hand, and surrounded by seven bright beacons.
"Xie Yuan!"
Mu Chaoyun's low cry rang out.
Xie Yuan looked up and saw the beautiful beauty looking at him with concern.
Mu Chaoyun stared at Xie Yuan with his pair of water-cut pupils. When he woke up, there were ripples. "Xie Yuan, are you okay? I saw a phantom attacking you! The shadow was in a wonderful state, and its aura was both trembling and weak and decaying, as if it was the true spirit of the ancient strong man!"
She frowned slightly, like a cloud of smoke.
Xie Yuan exhaled and smiled:
"It's okay, that old ghost is already scattered. He calls himself Wu Daoji, a top master when the new and old dynasties changed..."
"Wu Daoji?"
Mu Chaoyun showed a surprised look, and his tone slightly higher.
Seeing this, Xie Yuan guessed that she had heard of the name and couldn't help but say curiously: "Have you heard of it? Is this person very powerful?"
Mu Chaoyun took a breath and nodded with a serious expression: "It's not just amazing? In the century when dynasties changed, families competed for success, and heroes emerged in succession, he was also one of the most brilliant figures. According to legend, the legendary leader of the Kitchen Sect and the ancestor of the Ji family had a close relationship with him and often sat down to discuss the truth; and when Dali Taizu had a connection with him when he was young, he had received guidance. "He was involved behind many major events in that era. Regardless of strength or status, he is a person standing at the top of the times. Unexpectedly, he was not dead yet and lived here..."
Xie Yuan was surprised when he heard it:
"Is it so amazing? Then why have I never heard of this person before? ”
"I only saw him in some ancient books and unofficial histories. There was indeed a lot of information about him. As far as I know, it should be related to several major events that year. After that, he offended the Kitchen God and the court at the same time, so the official of the Dali Dynasty covered it up. His name would never be found in the official history, and there were very few messages about him among the people. After a thousand years, few people knew it."
Mu Chaoyun explained.
Xie Yuan felt thoughtful after hearing this.
Although Wu Daoji's purpose was impure when he spoke, some of the things he said might not be lies.
The ancestors of the Ji family asked him to challenge God for some reason. He finally retreated and sent the spirits to remain. He could not say that he could still take this true shadow candlestick and many treasures to survive for thousands of years. Because of a series of entanglements, Dali, who had just unified the world and the endless stove sects among the people, were regarded as taboos and never mentioned them.
Although thousands of years have passed, everything has passed with the wind, and even such a strong person is unknown, and the real story cannot be discovered again, Xie Yuan feels that this speculation makes some sense.
Based on his brief confrontation with Wu Daoji, he could feel that he was cruel and treacherous. In addition, as a top-notch strong man, he was willing to fall into the cage and survive. He felt that it was only natural that Wu Daoji was hated by those truly moving forward.
Xie Yuan shook his head and shook the candlestick in his hand: "By this true shadow candlestick, he has lived a thousand years longer than those big guys."
"Is the method so mysterious? Then..."
Mu Chaoyun thought a little, then stared at Xie Yuan steadily. Xie Yuan's figure was reflected in his flat lake-like pupils: "Xie Yuan, are you sure you really destroyed it?"
Xie Yuan looked at Mu Chaoyun's expression and immediately understood what she was worried about. He said with a little laughter and cry:
"Of course! The person who talked to you at this time was the real Xie Yuan."
"How should I know?"
Mu Chaoyun asked steadily.
Xie Yuan subconsciously said: "Haha, we first met under the sky green fruit tree in the deep behind Xiaoshi Village. Well, let's escape from Lu Laosan's pursuit together, disguised as Yunshan... There is also the Jiuyou Realm, and the temple..."
As he said, he suddenly felt a little yellow mud fell into his pants, and he couldn't explain it clearly.
If he was really swallowed by Wu Daoji and occupied his body, it seemed that these were things he could know...
Xie Yuan was silent for a moment, and simply lit his eyes slightly, emptying his sea of consciousness, allowing Mu Chaoyun to check directly.
At the same time, his spiritual consciousness swept through himself and surveyed it again.
As Mu Chaoyun said, Wu Daoji can survive for thousands of years, and the methods are unimaginable.
Although he was sure that Shanhai Ding had suppressed it, he felt that there was nothing wrong with being careful.
When Mu Chaoyun saw this, he felt hesitant.
Xie Yuan seemed to have no resistance and asked her to check it openly. But if Xie Yuan was already under Wu Daoji's control at this time, then this would be a trap. When she went to inspect her spiritual consciousness, she had to face the true spirit of a thousand-year-old master directly. It is naturally extremely dangerous to engage in spiritual confrontation with such an existence.
But if this is true...
Mu Chaoyun's eyes narrowed, and hesitated no longer. His eyes also lit up with a dark light, and he investigated through Xie Yuan's eyes.
The spiritual consciousness swept through Xie Yuan's sea of consciousness, and Mu Chaoyun was careful and did not let go of any corner.
This is impossible to happen to any two masters.
Opening the sea of consciousness is equivalent to revealing one's most private secrets and most vulnerable key points to others. Even if you have a little bad intention, you will never be able to recover.
When going deep into other people's sea of consciousness, especially a problematic sea of consciousness that may be invaded, is more likely to fall into the trap and fall into danger.
Without ten percent of trust, neither side can do this.
However, it is not the first time Xie Yuan and Mu Chaoyun have done this. They feel the fusion of spiritual consciousness, and they feel familiar with each other.
It seems that there is no problem?
Mu Chaoyun's eyes were slightly lightened, he looked at Xie Yuan, nodded slightly and said: "It seems that there is really no trace at all. But...
"Why has your spiritual consciousness been enhanced so much? ”
Xie Yuan explained:
“I directly refined it with the Shanhe Cauldron. I didn't expect it, but he insisted on coming to my sea of consciousness with weakness... There was nothing we could do. ”
After hearing this, Mu Chaoyun felt that there was no problem and finally believed it 90%.
Relying on the Black Sky Book, she arranged the soul lamp, so it is really unlikely that she will be taken over.
She nodded and showed a faint smile:
"This is unexpected joy. Wu Daoji has been planning for a hundred years and has been in your hands for thousands of years, but in the end he fell into your hands. I really... I don't know how to say it."
Mu Chaoyun felt inexplicably in his heart.
She has read all kinds of classics and secret booklets and is deeply impressed by the name Wu Daoji. Throughout thousands of years, he is also one of the top people in history.
But such a person, when he met Xie Yuan, who was not as old as his digits, disappeared silently and completely returned to history.
Xie Yuan smiled and looked at the beacons around him:
"Thanks to your help." Mu Chaoyun came to his senses and shook his head:
"Since you can break his tricks and have the mountain and river tripod, it will be the same in the end if you have it or not." Xie Yuan quickly said: "I can't do it without you." Mu Chaoyun smiled, pursing his lips and said nothing.
Xie Yuan swept his eyes through the cave and saw that the study was simple and clean, spotless, and nothing else, so he stared at the door opposite him.
He said in a deep voice: "I'll go and see what's inside." Mu Chaoyun nodded gently: "I'll watch from the side, don't worry." Xie Yuan nodded, walked to the door carefully, drew out the long sword, and then gently pushed the door with the sword.
Silently, the door of the room opened, revealing the scene inside.
It is still a simple cave with the same style as outside, but it is just a living room.
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小�
A wardrobe, a bed.
And the old man cross-legged on the bed.
Wu Daoji.
Xie Yuan's pupils shrank and his vest tightened.
But the next moment he discovered that although Wu Daoji was lifelike, his eyes were closed and he was completely lifeless, just like a puppet statue, which had long lost his breath.
Xie Yuan knew that this should be his body, and the true spirit has always been stored in the candlestick.
His eyes sank, stepped in, turned into a sword and spear, and moved forward a little.
With a bang, the red lotus karma fire ignited on Wu Daoji's body, and it was burned to ashes in a few breaths.
Xie Yuan didn't have to compete with the dead, but Wu Dao's survival for a thousand years really opened his eyes. He was worried that if he kept the legacy of the great master who had not been corrupt for thousands of years, would something bad happen?
When confirming that it had indeed been crushed and raised to ashes, Xie Yuan checked the room again, but it was still empty.
He simply set a fire, burned the inner room, and then led the fire to the study, preparing to burn it all, so that he could feel at ease.
Standing at the entrance of the stone gate and looking at the slowly rising flames, Xie Yuan and Mu Chaoyun stood side by side.
Xie Yuan said quietly: "It's indeed the Black Sky Book... We already have the fifth page on our hands, with a total of nine pages scattered in unknown places all over the world, so we will only take more than half of them."
"This is a good thing."
Mu Chaoyun said softly: "The Black Sky Book is of great benefit to your practice, and the more the better. Moreover, since we already have five pages on our hands, the things like this will only be more and faster, until we get all of them together."
Xie Yuan nodded slightly, and then suddenly said:
"What after that?"
"After?"
Mu Chaoyun smiled and said:
" Then you can definitely become the number one person in the world, one step away from the avenue. Then..."
She looked upwards and looked at the cave stone roof reflected by the jumping orange flames.
But she obviously didn't look there.
"You will also go to the top to see."
Xie Yuan pondered: "Is it like Xie An and the ancestors of the Ji family?"
"No, you are different from them."
Mu Chaoyun lowered his head, looked at Xie Yuan next to him, and said seriously:
"You are the one who can end all this, you are the most unique one."
Xie Yuan frowned and sighed:
"I don't understand very well, can you explain it clearly?"
Mu Chaoyun's face was a little distressed, a little sad, and many emotions that were difficult to explain: "I can't, Xie Yuan. I really want it, but I can't. If I say it, everything may change..." "Is there really such a thing? Is it really a destined fate? Can it change because of one word?" Xie Yuan frowned.
Mu Chaoyun sighed:
"It is difficult for those who do not enter this path to understand. Maybe it can be said that-
"Fate is never destined, but the river of destiny has its direction. I tried hard to clear away the fog, stood on tiptoe, saw the whereabouts of the river, then moved the stones and carefully built the riverbed, letting it change a little, and a little more..."
The more she said, the harder it was, and her face gradually became pale, even transparent.
Xie Yuan felt that Mu Chaoyun was leaving him, and suddenly felt panic, and quickly grabbed her hand:
"Okay, OK, I understand. I can't understand what you tell me. I can only use a gun to play with a stick. I don't need to say it again in the future! I won't ask again, either. ”
Mu Chaoyun was held by Xie Yuan, and he took a breath, and his face gradually became beautiful.
She smiled:
"It's okay, I want you to know, and you will know when you should know. This day is not far away."
She was silent, and then smiled softly:
"Xie Yuan, you must believe that I am for your own good. You must also believe in yourself."
Xie Yuan focused his attention: "I naturally understand." Mu Chaoyun looked at him, wanting to speak but stopping, and the emotions in his eyes were so strong that they could not be dissolved.
The firelight shone on the two of them, and the beating shadows were violent and wild.
When the fire was confirmed to burn everything to ashes, Xie Yuan and Mu Chaoyun pushed open the stone gate and left the cave.
However, as soon as she went out, Xie Yuan realized something was wrong.
He glanced around and his eyes shrank suddenly: "Where is Long Qianqiu's body?"
Xie Yuan and Mu Chaoyun looked at each other, and at the same time showed a shocked and suspicious look.
In the corridor outside, there should have been the bodies of the three great masters in southern Hebei.
And now, there is Mr. Tong here and Luo Dongsheng.
But there is no Long Qianqiu.
Tianxiang Villa.
Long Danyun was sitting in the study, holding a book of grass and wood classics in his hand.
However, his attention was obviously not on this, and the book stayed on the current page and had not been turned over for a long time.
He looked at the sky outside the window and turned around, wanting to focus on reading and not be restless.
However, it can never be done.
Long Danyun sighed, simply stood up, couldn't help but pace in the study, thinking to himself: "Uncle said that there is peace of mind whenever there is a big thing. But if such a big thing is done, Tianxiang Villa will definitely become the number one force in southern Hebei! If it is defeated, it will probably be doomed. How can I calm down? "Well, the preparations that my uncle has already made, let me think about what else is missing... Alas, why haven't he come back yet? ”
Just as he was thinking this, Long Danyun quickly walked to the window to look at the sky, and sighed anxiously: "It's bright and it's almost noon!" He shook his head repeatedly and turned around with his hands behind his back.
Then he saw Long Qianqiu appear quietly behind him at some point, standing motionless. (This chapter ends)
