Alternative Jianghu Adventures

"...Let's all calm down."

Xia Yun stroked his forehead, and suddenly regretted pushing Qiao Anyue to He Lianqiu. If she was by her side, he might not be so irritable.

"First, we only want blueprints, and we believe that you can design them with your ability."

Xia Yun sorted out his words in pain, and found that he could no longer speak in a normal way of conversation, so he could only list the information he wanted to tell Cheng Zhe one by one, trying to keep himself calm.

"Secondly, money is not a problem. Shen Yuan Pavilion can even provide ten years of security for the entire Wood and Stone Alliance."

Cheng Zhe was so stimulated by Xia Yun that he couldn't help but swear, "Do you fucking think it's about money? It's about time! I don't fucking have time to waste time here with you!"

"Third——" Xia Yun raised his voice, resisting the urge to kick again, "Do you still want what my master left behind? You need to return the Shilijian on the first day of the lunar new year, so you fucking go look for it again." Who will accompany you around? Shilijian also has hidden stakes in Usai, and he will not go back and forth for more than ten days, so what the hell is going on with you staying here for ten more days?"

Xia Yun's tone was extremely aggressive, and after hearing Cheng Zhe's swearing, he revealed his nature without hesitation, "Cheng Wangcai, use your brain to think about what Helian Qiu said before? Since she asked you to come with me, explain She also wants you to help - what's more, she and my uncle made this plan together! She doesn't care herself, why are you getting so excited here!"

"Xia Yun, can you say it again?" Cheng Zhe gritted his teeth, staring at Xia Yun who was talking nonsense, his finger bones turned white, "Who are you cursing to death!"

"Damn that's not what I meant!" Xia Yun punched the wall next to him, wishing he could take back what he said in a hurry.

"...As long as I can help you about the ends of the earth, I definitely have no secrets. What I mean is—even Helian Qiu knows that some things are more important than a person's life...Why the hell are you so twisted? "

"Yes! You are all worried about the country and the people, and you are all righteous. I am a villain and I am selfish-then let me ask you, what do you get for worrying about these things? Everyone is fucking crazy, You don’t even have to lose your own life, what do you think you’re all planning? I won’t stop you if you want to die, but I can’t watch Ah Qiu die for nothing like this!”

Xia Yun laughed instead of anger when he heard Cheng Zhe's rebuttal, "Do you think we are dying in vain?"

……nonsense!

Before Cheng Zhe could say what was in his heart, he heard Xia Yun say quietly:

"There is something I didn't want to tell you, but now I think it's better to say it."

There was a trace of strangeness in Xia Yun's eyes, she laughed and said, "Did you know that Lu Kun sent someone to kill Helian?"

Cheng Zhe was stunned for a moment.

Xia Yunxu pointed to the door, "The other 'bats' spent a whole night cleaning up the corpses, on your wedding night...why do you think they should die for nothing because of Helian?"

"You said you didn't want to care about the dispute between the North and the South. Let me tell you, the fact is that everyone around you has been involved in it—since you received the order from the Northern Army, you have also been involved! Because you are the leader of the Wood and Stone League, because you I fell in love with the head of Baicao Valley, because you are now staying in Shenyuan Pavilion's territory!

Now, Lu Kun has started to interfere with your family, your life, and your friends—if you still think of me as your friend—why do you think you can be alone! "

Xia Yun didn't stop breathing, until he finished speaking, he was taken aback for a moment.

... These words are never familiar!

She suddenly remembered what Shen Feiwei said to her in the woods beside Wushui when he was about to die:

"Xia Yun... One day you will understand that you are not that floating cloud that drifts with the tide... The real sea of ​​clouds can cross mountains, rivers and seas, rolling like a thousand weights!"

"...But Xia Yun, the forest has long since disappeared in this world. The tree is there, and the wind is also there."

"The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop... You are a cang tree that lifts the sky, even if you are alone, you have to support me!"

The words that I thought I had forgotten a long time ago now seem to be vividly remembered in a different way.

Xia Yun suddenly wanted to laugh at Shen Feiwei who said this at the beginning—that guy probably taught her a lesson in such a tone of hating iron and steel?It didn't sound like much at the time, but now she was the one who persuaded her, and she seemed to be able to understand Shen Feiwei's mood at that time.

"That's all I've said, and I don't want to say anything else."

Xia Yun suddenly relaxed, folded his arms, and smiled at Cheng Zhe.

"Cheng Zhe, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. Dayi has always been a fart! But too many people have hanged on this tree. If I don't continue walking, I always feel ashamed of those who died. I should say I've said everything, you should think about it carefully, the gate of Shen Yuan Pavilion is right there, you can come and go freely."

After speaking, regardless of Cheng Zhe's answer, Xia Yun walked out of the cellar in two or three steps.Without saying a word, he went to Shen Gongze to discuss the details of the next action.

Cheng Zhe stayed in the wine cellar for four full days.

During this period of time, under Cheng Zhe's tacit consent, except for He Lianqiu who ordered to deliver three meals a day to someone, no one else was seen.

"Like a big girl waiting to be married."

In this regard, Xia Yun just gave this evaluation with disgust.

first day.

"Did he say anything?" When He Lianqiu came out of the cellar, Xia Yun rushed forward.

He Lianqiu shook his head, and handed the food box to Wan'er beside him, "It's just chatting about homework, but we don't even mention our plan."

"Cut." Xia Yun snorted disdainfully.

"Oh, that's right," He Lianqiu turned his head and said to Xia Yun on the eve of returning to the medicine house with Qiao Anyue, "He said he wanted you to go down and asked you something."

When Xia Yun went to the wine cellar, he saw that the wooden box he had placed in the corner had been turned into a mess.

The box had long been covered with a thick layer of dust, even though Cheng Zhe had moved it once, a thin layer of dust would still be dusted off when he took out the utensils inside.

Inside the box are the relics left by Xia Cunxiu - this is what Xia Yun told him when he took him to the wine cellar.

"Help me." Cheng Zhe, unshaven, just glanced at Xia Yun who came down the stairs, and pulled out a bunch of messy things from the box, without a begging attitude, "You said, you will help me Looking for clues. You are most familiar with Xia Cunxiu’s stuff.”

Xia Yun didn't rush, just lazily walked to the box, squatted down, and groped in the box——

The saber that I carry, the weapon I used to use, the clothes I often wear...

After a while, she took out a yellowed booklet from a pile of messy things.There are three large characters written vigorously and forcefully on it——

"Shan Hai Jing".

"This book is the most likely." Xia Yun said firmly.

After all, most of the creatures on that island have been recorded.

Cheng Zhe had only heard a little about the booklet left by Xia Cunxiu before, but now when he saw the real thing for a first time, he was suddenly a little confused.

He carefully wiped the dust accumulated on it, and it could be seen that both the paper inside and the slightly harder cover had curled up, and the edges were damaged countless times, apparently being read by the current owner countless times.

What kind of mood did Xia Yun have when he read this book?

Cheng Zhe didn't know, he just looked at Xia Yun's side face, feeling the flash of nostalgia on Xia Yun's body for no reason.

"What are you looking at me for?" Xia Yun looked up at Cheng Zhe who was staring at him, frowning in displeasure, "Read your book!"

As he spoke, he flipped open the "Shan Hai Jing"—the birds and beasts on it were so lifelike that Cheng Zhe was in a daze for a while.

I almost thought that I had returned to the paradise-like days on the island that could be called "isolated".

"To be honest, I can write down all the above things silently for you." Xia Yun curled her lips, "But I'm sure, there's not even half a word of Tianya Haijiao mentioned in it."

Cheng Zhe turned the book over and over in disbelief, only to find that what Xia Yun said was completely true.

"How is it possible?" He couldn't help frowning, carefully flipping through the paper that might be broken at any time, with an expression of disbelief.

Xia Yun spread his hands, "But there may be something that I can't think of, you should pay more attention to every punctuation, or the pointing of the pen... My master likes to hide things in these places, but the parts I can see are Nothing at all."

Inspired by Xia Yun, Cheng Zhe suddenly realized.

His eyes began to focus on "pictures" instead of "words". Looking at them, his attention was all focused on that chapter of "Zhong Shan Jing".

"Xia Yun, take a look here." Cheng Zhe spread the book in front of Xia Yun, and pointed to the footer with his index finger, "Starting from Zhongshan Jing, the codes of the footer are out of order."

"I've tried this," Xia Yun nodded, "but it doesn't have any special meaning whether it's rearranging in order or in reverse order."

"...No, this seems to be a..." Cheng Zhe hesitated, not quite sure about his guess, "...a formation."

"Huh?" Xia Yun became interested.

She leaned over to read Cheng Zhe's special pages with great interest, and saw that although the numbers on them were messy, there seemed to be some rules to follow.

"One and two belong to wood in the east, three and four belong to fire in the south..." Cheng Zhe muttered, "If you put the pages with the same attributes..."

Cheng Zhe's voice was a little hurried, he looked at Xia Yun, "Can I take this book apart?"

"Take it apart!" Xia Yun cut the thread of the book without saying a word.

The books that had been bound together were scattered in an instant, and the two of them found the original "Zhong Shan Jing" from a pile of papers without saying a word, and rearranged them according to Cheng Zhe's instructions.

Pages of paper were placed on the ground into a square rectangle, and when Cheng Zhe saw the results, Cheng Zhe held his breath.

An indescribable sense of excitement rushed to his head, he pointed at the reassembled blueprint, and his tone rose uncontrollably, "Look! The inconspicuous fragments of the original story book have reconstituted Wu Sai's territory! "

The author has something to say: Go out and blow the code, post it in advance
