Chapter 409: Solving the Puzzle
"Okay, Zhu Nuxia, I will rely on you to open the way when I go out for sightseeing in the future." Li Chuan said.
“Maybe after the demon suppression is over, there will be no more monsters.” Zhu Qingyun said.
"Isn't this impossible?" Li Chuan said: "There are a lot of big demons in the land of Dajiang Dynasty, and they can be killed. But outside of Dajiang Dynasty, there are no big demons? Those demon cultivators , doesn’t it count? Moreover, birds, beasts, fish, insects, plants, and trees can all become spirits. As long as they go to the human world, they will inevitably cause harm to people.”
“And the little monsters may become big monsters. ." Zhu Qingyun said, looking a little disappointed.
"As long as there are still people taking care of this matter," Li Chuan didn't think it was a big deal. "Isn't your master just doing this?"
"That's right," Zhu Qingyun folded his hands and lay on the ground. On the table, he said: "I listen to His Majesty recalling these things every day, and then I realize that she is an old man. I feel that she originally wanted to see Prince Su again, but she hasn't made up her mind yet, so when she heard the news today, she suddenly She was stunned. She would never have been like this before."
"Prince Su felt the same way," Li Chuan said.
“Really?” Zhu Qingyun asked.
So Li Chuan briefly recounted his conversation with Prince Su to Zhu Qingyun, and then laughed at himself: "Maybe he just can't stand my stupidity."
"I can't understand what he meant. Isn't it better for you to let him explain clearly than a bunch of us guessing?" Zhu Qingyun comforted Li Chuan.
"Your Majesty is really good to Prince Su. She can kill her own children, but she has spared Prince Su many times. I doubt if she will be able to delay it any longer. I regretted it again," Li Chuan said.
“What your Majesty hates most is demons.” Zhu Qingyun said.
“Ancient monsters and monsters are not the same species, right?” Li Chuan said.
Zhu Qingyun shook her head and said: "Your Majesty said that she hates it. Her wish is that there will be no monsters in the world." She picked a piece of peach preserves and said while eating: "Have you ever heard of 'Nine Stars'? The sentence "Gathering the tail, the demon star is born'"
Li Chuan just wanted to shake his head, but felt that he had heard it before. He thought for a while and said uncertainly: "I seem to have heard your master say it."
"Well, Your Majesty said, Ju Chi told her that they One of the children born will lead the half-demon out of the Cangwu Wilderness." Zhu Qingyun added, "Ju Chi is the woodcutter who leads the way, the ancient monster she was forced to marry."
< br>"That person, could it be the demon star?" Li Chuan asked.
"I asked the master the same thing. The master said that the demon star will not be a certain person, a demon or a half-demon, but a group of people who all have this opportunity." Zhu Qingyun replied, "Your Majesty said, giant Chi once let it slip and revealed that he was awakened by someone."
"Who?" Li Chuan asked.
"Your Majesty said she didn't know either." Zhu Qingyun said.
“I think, I think, if we had not gone to Xuanshui Mountain, the demon star would be on King Black Horn,” Li Chuan said: “He has a background, and because his previous owner knows a lot about the world, There will still be some index remaining. Look at the various systems of Xuanshui Mountain, the counselors he recruited, and the mineral veins of Xuanshui Mountain... It's hard to say if it will take him decades or hundreds of years to develop. "
As he spoke, Li Chuan suddenly had a guess: "Is this the reason why Tiansu built a cave in Xuanshui Mountain and died there?"
He stood up, Said: "Miss Zhu, let's go to Xuanshui Mountain again."
"Now?" Zhu Qingyun asked.
Li Chuan touched the Zuihong Ring and finally remembered that the pony carriage was not on him.
He sat down again and said: "Wait for a few days, wait for a while... It will be dark by now. Daoist Wen came as soon as he said he would go, why haven't he come back yet."
"Coming, coming."
Li Chuan heard Wen Guying's voice. He looked around, but did not see Wen Guying. When he turned back, he found that Wen Guying had already She sat next to him and reached out to pour herself a drink.
Li Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Director Wen, don't keep pretending to be a ghost to scare me." He sat back again, and then asked, "This trip... went well, right?" "Very smooth," Wen Guying took a sip of wine and said, "I taught him some life-saving methods that he can use."
“That’s it.” Li Chuan said.
“Are you going to Xuanshui Mountain?” Wen Guying asked.
Li Chuan explained his speculation to Wen Guying, and said: "I think if we understand what Tiansu wants to do, this game will be solved."
"Let's wait and see if Tiansu or Shenxia will respond this time." Wen Guying said.
"Okay, maybe we can wait until we come back from Yashan County," Li Chuan sighed unconsciously and said, "I originally thought that this matter would become clear once Prince Su spoke, but now the more clues there are, the more The more chaotic it is, the less we know what the truth is."
"In the great tribulation, it is difficult for even the immortals in the upper world to see the whole picture, let alone us?" Wen Guying persuaded: "I think it is already very difficult. It’s clear.”
“Really?” Li Chuan didn’t believe it.
Wen Guying said: "What happened to you this time was that the demon took action. The first time she took action, there will be a second time. Things that were originally hidden in the dark will gradually surface. ."
"I don't believe it. You've gone to Yashan County and she still doesn't do anything?" Wen Guying said.
"Am I becoming a fish bait?" Li Chuan suddenly realized.
"Yes. We now know the spire under the nunnery and the ruins of the Qinling Mountains, and the key to the ruins is also in our hands." Wen Guying had obviously thought about this a long time ago, he said: " After meeting Jiang Mei, he must have collected a lot of information. By then we will be together."
Hearing this, Li Chuan asked: "Any news from Director Jiang?"
"No," Wen Guying denied. He said, "Jiang Mei and I have been to many places. He must have a way to protect himself and escape. Maybe he is waiting for us."
Li Chuan nodded. He felt that Jiang Mei was much more reliable than Wen Guying.
"One more thing," Wen Guying said: "Xiao Hong and Ting Deng, one of them is an elder of Xuanyue Sect, and the other is a disciple of Xumi Mountain. If we investigate them, we will definitely find a lot of clues."
“Back to the Four Gods Palace this time... Anyway, let’s see how the old palace master arranges it. The two factions of the Four Gods Palace and the Tianyumen join forces. No matter what is in the Qinling Mountains of Yashan County, even if an immortal runs out, it can be Block it."
Zhu Qingyun asked: "When will you go to the Four Gods Palace?"
Wen Guying said: "Just the nearest time, you have to stay in Beijing for a few more days. Shall we go together?"
Zhu Qingyun shook his head, "In a few days, your Majesty may summon me to the palace."
"That's good. Let's go out for a walk tomorrow?" Li Chuan suggested.
"Okay, let me think about it, there seems to be a lantern festival tomorrow night, let's go see it?" Zhu Qingyun thought of something and said, "By the way, it's up to you to solve the lantern riddles."
< br>"Let me weave a lotus lantern out of bamboo for you." Li Chuan said.
“You can do this again?” Zhu Qingyun was surprised.
“A craftsman knows how to order any dish.” Li Chuan said.
