Autumn

Jinse's hand holding the black book trembled a little, her eyes fell on the jade document in her hand, and she realized that the records on the jade document should reveal more truths, which she might not want to face.

"Jinser?"

"Master, Li Shang...could it be Sang Yu?"

Jinse frowned, staring blankly at the jade document.

"Yes or no, it's all predestined." Xuannv held Jinse's trembling hand, "Some things need to be faced. Otherwise, you will never know the truth."

"I understand, but I didn't expect the things recorded in this booklet to be..."

"Do you think that living in Jiuxiao is a comfortable life? You are wrong. This place is far more terrifying than you imagined. I think the things recorded in this booklet should be the reason for the changes in the subsequent calamities."

Xuannv's eyes fell on Xuanyuan Xing who was standing beside her.

"I think so too, so I tried to sort out and investigate everything that happened before the calamity, and then I came up with this booklet." Xuanyuan Xing sighed, "During the investigation, we did find some traces, but only We know that Li Shang has found Mo Xie's three souls, but we don't know where they are placed, and we don't understand why Li Shang didn't bring his soul back to Jiuxiao."

Jinse frowned and looked at the jade document in her hand. She had a premonition in her heart that the record on it must have the whereabouts of Mo Xie's soul, but they didn't find it.Maybe, it has something to do with Lu Li...

The cry of the baby was a little ear-piercing in the cold night.But the outskirts of the city are sparsely populated. Even if there are well-meaning people who want to take care of them, they can't afford to feed such a baby.The crying of the baby aroused the curiosity of the nocturnal animals, and they stared at the baby less than ten meters away.The owls on the tree branch watched the upcoming food scramble, and occasionally honked a few times.On another tree not far from the owl, stood a man wearing a black cloak that covered most of his face.This person stood there for a long time, as for how long, probably he himself did not remember.When this man saw the most ferocious wolf among nocturnal animals, and began to cautiously take steps towards the baby, the black cloak on his body suddenly unfolded, and the tree pole under his feet only shook slightly.

The wolf stared directly at the uninvited guest with green eyes, wandered between the cloak and the baby for a while, then bent its body without hesitation, and rushed towards its prey. This action seemed to inspire the wolf pack, six or seven The wolf swooped down along with him.A gleam of light flashed under the cloak, and amidst a burst of whimpering, the wolves were scattered and lay on the ground in disorder.The cloak was lifted again, and the wind swept the snow past the fallen wolves. The owl's eyes had been fixed on the black cloak, but now, there was nothing there.

Qingfeng City was originally a remote town, but because of the Shen family's Yunjin rice paper, it became one of the most prosperous towns in Kyushu.The South Street in the city is the main street, so the population here is also the densest. The numerous shops make the South Street the commercial center of Qingfeng City, which also attracts the rich, gentry, dignitaries and dignitaries in the city to settle here.At the southernmost part of this bustling market, there is an osmanthus tree. No one knows when and who planted it. Only when the osmanthus tree blooms and people pass by the quiet courtyard, they find that there is a strong fragrance here. .When people are intoxicated by the fragrance of flowers, they can see the simple and elegant plaque on the lintel when they look up - nothing to do.

"Master..."

Sang Yu raised her head from the book, her golden-brown double pupils smiled.

"Li'er, don't run, walk slowly."

A small figure flew into his arms.Sang Yu touched Lu Li's long black hair, and saw that the moon-white robe on his body was wrinkled and dirty, and his fair face was also stained with mud.

"Where did you go to play? You made it so embarrassing."

"A Xiao next door said that there are a lot of carp in our pond."

Six-year-old Lu Li said in a childlike voice, and Sang Yu raised his eyebrows. It turned out that this kid was playing carp with the neighbor's children by the pond.Sang Yu had no choice but to smile wryly and picked up Lu Li to take a bath and change clothes. He really couldn't see his apprentice in such a mess.

"Master, why am I called Lu Li?"

Lu Li could feel that Master was busy dressing himself, and asked while blinking his delicate Ruifeng eyes.

"Weird and grotesque, that is to say, the colors change. It also refers to strange phenomena." Sang Yu took Lu Li's hand and looked at his neat attire with satisfaction. "Lu Li also has good intentions."

Seeing Lu Li half-understanding, Sang Yu couldn't help laughing.

"Let's meditate with Master today."

"it is good."

This was Lu Li's first time entering Sang Yu's quiet room. He was very curious about what this quiet room looked like, although Master said it was a fake cave.

"There are patterns of lotus flowers carved on the cave wall."

Sang Yu saw the little apprentice's curiosity, and led him to touch the lotus flower decorations.These patterns reminded Lu Li of the lotus in the pond, which seemed to be the same as what Master described.

"Master likes lotus?"

"Yes, I like it."

Sang Yu thought for a while and replied.In fact, I don’t like lotus very much, I just think it’s easier to support, so when I built this quiet room, I wanted to find something to decorate the monotonous stone room, so I thought of lotus.

It was not the first time for Lu Li to meditate, but he was a child after all, so he couldn't sit still after a long time.Therefore, Sang Yu's meditation practice was affected to some extent, and sometimes he simply gave up the meditation practice and spent a while with Lu Li.However, today's Lu Li was very well-behaved and meditated quietly for a long time.When Sang Yu finished his meditation, Lu Li was still sitting quietly.Sang Yu smiled unconsciously seeing his little apprentice becoming more and more like a cultivator.

Sang Yu still remembered the first day when she brought Lu Li home. It was snowing that day, perhaps the first winter snow in the history of Qingfeng City.Lu Li, who was still a baby, just lay naked in the snow and kept crying.He was surrounded by those nocturnal animals, each of which was staring at him.When Sang Yu wrapped the child in her cloak, the crying gradually stopped, and instead she breathed steadily from her arms.

Although the child was surprisingly well-behaved when he followed Sang Yu, he would cry as soon as he left Sang Yu's embrace.Sang Yu, who went to Qingfeng City to seek help, had no choice but to ask those kind women to provide some food.As a result, Sangyu's rhythm of life was completely disrupted, wandering around during the day became time for feeding the children, and she didn't dare to settle down in those dilapidated places at night.After more than a month of such flustered days, one night, Sang Yu finally put the energetic child to sleep, and then fell into the bed tiredly and fell into a deep sleep.

Sang Yu didn't know how long he had slept. When he looked sleepily ahead, he felt a blurry figure in front of him.When he finally saw the man's appearance clearly, he was so startled that he almost fell off the bed.

The man had an appearance similar to his own, especially those golden-brown double pupils.He looked at the baby lying beside Sang Yu with some sadness in his eyes, and his lips moved, as if he was saying a person's name.

"Who are you?"

"I am you, and you are me." There was a little smile in the golden-brown double pupils, "When you think of everything, this child is really alive."

The voice disappeared into the darkness along with the figure of the man. Sang Yu felt that his eyelids were much heavier, unable to withstand the deep sleepiness, his consciousness became blurred again until it disappeared.

From that day on, Sang Yu's consciousness was a little half-asleep and half-awake. He would often fall asleep for nearly an hour during the day. And some familiar people and things.

"Li Shang... Mo Xie..."

Sang Yu wrote these two names on the yellowed rice paper. He remembered these two names, one was his past life, and the other might be the child's past life.Sang Yu frowned and looked at the child lying on the bed, waving his little hands.A thought suddenly popped into my mind.

"You will be called Lu Li from now on." Sang Yu picked up the child, "It's weird, your appearance is weird."

Wuweiju was originally an abandoned garden. The original owner had moved out of Qingfeng City a long time ago. Although he entrusted the old scholar Xu in the city to resell the garden on his behalf, he has not been able to sell it.The reason is that there are mostly old residents in Qingfeng City, and few foreigners come to settle down.In addition, this garden is not very big, and most people who can afford to buy a house will not want such a small courtyard.As a result, it was delayed.Sang Yu took a fancy to this garden, firstly because of its moderate size, and secondly because of its secluded location, so he bought the garden at a low price.After tidying up briefly, Sang Yu chose an auspicious day, hung a plaque on the lintel of Wuweiju, and lived there.

That year Lu Li happened to be one year old, and at this time, Sang Yu discovered that Lu Li only had seven souls, not three souls, but there were two strange powers in his body that replaced the existence of three souls.In addition, in order to suppress those two forces, someone deliberately set up seals in Lu Li's eyes, which also caused Lu Li to be congenitally blind.Before that, because of Sang Yu's lack of common sense in caring for children, she failed to discover Lu Li's flaws.Even if someone saw the difference in Lu Li, they didn't seem to tell Sang Yu on purpose.At this time, Sang Yu began to worry about how to take care of a child who was born blind.

Lu Li's fear of not seeing made him never walk slowly from the moment he learned to run, because he firmly believed that as long as he kept running, he would definitely see the light, even though he failed every time.Faced with this situation, Sang Yu could only teach Lu Li over and over again how to use other sensory organs and ignore the inconvenience caused by blindness.When Lu Li was five years old, the memory of Sang Yu's previous life became more vivid. He clearly realized what he needed to accomplish urgently. The missing three souls.

Six-year-old Lu Li already possessed all the basic characteristics of cultivation. Although he only had seven souls, the seven souls originated from Mo Xie seemed to be more spiritual and powerful than Sang Yu imagined.And the other two strange powers in his body not only replaced the existence and power of the three souls, but even surpassed the three souls.This allowed Lu Li, who was only six years old, to quickly master all the knowledge and abilities he taught him.Even if he is blind, he can not only remember all the written knowledge transmitted to him by Sang Yu through his consciousness, but even use it flexibly.This also made it possible for Sang Yu to take Lu Li out to find Mo Xie's three souls.

In Lu Li's memory from the age of six to 15, Wuweiju was almost unfamiliar, because most of his time was spent on the road.Sang Yu took Lu Li to travel among the Kyushu, and even lived or migrated on the borders of the four seas for a long time.Sensitive Lu Li could feel that Master had special feelings for Si Hai.It took Sang Yu nine years to find Mo Xie's three souls, but when he returned to Wuweiju's quiet room, he found that Mo Xie's three souls could not integrate into Lu Li's body because of the strange power in Lu Li's body.Sang Yu had no choice but to seal Mo Xie's three souls.

The 15-year-old Lu Li has grown into a handsome boy, and he seems to have become accustomed to his own blindness.In the summer of that year, Sang Yu brought back an 11-year-old boy.Sitting in the guest room, Lu Li could hear the sounds of jars colliding with each other, as well as the occasional sound of the boy gasping for air.

"If you're in pain, it's better to yell out."

Lu Li frowned and said.

"It doesn't hurt... hiss!"

Sang Yu looked up and saw the young man's brows tangled up from enduring the pain.

"Children are so brave."

"No!"

The boy still stubbornly refused to shout out.

"Okay, although these wounds are all skin traumas, if they are not taken care of properly, there will still be sequelae. During the period of recuperation, the diet should be light, and you must not get angry, do not enter the water, or touch it. Also, you need to be absolutely It is absolutely not allowed to jump up and down."

"You are more verbose than my mother..."

The young man muttered something in a low voice, but Sang Yu, who had excellent hearing, would not miss any sound.

"That's for your own good."

A chestnut hit the boy directly on the forehead, which finally caused him to shout loudly, and made Lu Li beside him laugh.Hearing the laughter behind him, the young man turned to look at Lu Li. When he saw Lu Li's face, the young man's eyes were a little dazed.

"My name is Lu Li. It was my master Sang Yu who bandaged your wound just now."

"Call me Mr. Sang from now on."

"Wait, I didn't say I was staying."

The boy suddenly came back to his senses and shouted at Sang Yu.

"Do you think the Meng family is still there? Or do you mean that those people won't look for you everywhere just to kill the grass?"

Sang Yu's words made the boy speechless for a moment, but his joints turned white from clenching tightly told Sang Yu that the hatred rooted in his heart was growing rapidly.

"If you want to avenge the Meng family in the future, then stay obediently. I will protect you and teach you how to take revenge."

The young man suddenly raised his head and looked at Sang Yu's golden-brown double pupils. There was warmth in those eyes that he missed.

The 11-year-old Meng Yue is only half a head shorter than the 15-year-old Lu Li, but his body is much stronger than Lu Li. In addition to practicing martial arts and meditation, he also undertakes all the chores of Wuwei Juli, which naturally includes taking care of Lu Li.It seems that since then, Wuweiju has officially made a living by solving anecdotes and strange incidents.Gradually, the entire Qingfeng City knew about Wuweiju, and even foreigners came here admiringly.

That is, in the early winter of this year, Sang Yu accidentally obtained Huang Yulinglong. The memory of his previous life made him understand the meaning of this jade Linglong in an instant, and even explained the strange power in Lu Li's body.

"Qiu Ming fell from the Li door, fell through the incarnation pool, and disintegrated into five-color jade Linglong..."

Jinse looked at this record with a frown, she was still puzzled, Huang Yulinglong is a part of Qiu Ming, but what does it have to do with Lu Li?

"Actually, Qiu Ming didn't decompose it into five-color Yu Linglong back then, but seven colors."

Xuanyuan Xing said suddenly.

"Seven colors?"

"The five colors correspond to the five elements, gold, wood, water, fire and earth. There are two other colors, which correspond to the sun and the moon." Xuanyuan Xing explained to the puzzled Jinse, "I have also investigated this matter, although the content is still incomplete, but It can be generally known that the other two colors of Yu Linglong are named Wulun and Binglun, and their aliases are also called Rihun and Guipo. When they fell through the incarnation pool, only Wulun and Binglun did not transform into entities."

"In other words, Wulun and Binglun didn't appear in the mortal world in physical form, so how could they become Lu Li?"

Jinse couldn't figure this out more and more.

"I think only Daoyuan Tianzun can answer this." Xuannv murmured, "Mo Xie left his soul shortly after Li Shang's fall. Could it be that at that time, his seven souls were mistakenly matched with the two colors of Yu Linglong? Combined, did Lu Li appear?"

"It's possible. Maybe, as you said, Tianzun should have discovered this mistake. Maybe the seal on Lu Li's body was done by Tianzun." Xuanyuan Xing touched his clean chin and said, "But his three souls... During the investigation, it was indeed discovered that Sang Yu had sealed the three souls because he could not fuse them...but we have not been able to find the correct location."

"I see!" Jin Se suddenly stood up from her seat, "Lu Li once discovered a strange space in Yunmao in order to help the villagers of Yunmao get rid of the strange snake that suddenly appeared. Deep in that space is a The huge seal is a water seal, and there is a person curled up inside. Lu Li said that he doesn't know who it is, but it feels very familiar. Could it be that it is Mo Xie's three souls?"

"Is that seal still there?"

"It should still be there. We dare not move because we don't know what will happen. And the strange snake has been eliminated, and the seal seems to be harmless."

Jinse recalled the appearance of that seal. She remembered that cylindrical seal, like a tall fish tank, with the white chrysalis floating in the water.

"The record seems to end here..."

"Yes, because we lost track of Sang Yu after that, and we don't even know why he disappeared." Xuanyuan Xing took the jade document handed back by Jin Se, "Maybe it was to collect all Yu Linglong."

"Most of the mysterious people today are Sang Yu, although there is also the possibility of playing the piano. After all, there are many dangers in gathering Qi Yulinglong. Sang Yu probably decided to erase all traces of herself in order to let Lu Li and Meng Yue avoid these dangers. .”

"But in the end, Lu Li was still involved."

Jinse's brows became more tangled, because the emergence of this truth made her lose her direction for a while.Xuannv frowned and looked at her disciple. She could easily guess what Jinse was worried about. If Li Shang's memory was fully awakened, would Sang Yu choose Mo Xie or Lu Li?If he chooses Mo Xie, Lu Li will disappear forever. For Jin Se, this is undoubtedly the most difficult wound in his life.

"The identity of the mysterious person is very important to the situation at hand. If we don't even know who the other party is, it is impossible for us to achieve our goal."

Xuanyuan Xing suddenly said.

"I think the identity of the mysterious person will be revealed soon, as long as Yu Linglong gathers all of them."

Xuannv said in a low voice.Jinse widened her eyes and looked at her master. Yu Linglong had gathered all of them, which meant that Lu Li would be pushed to the most dangerous place.

"Jinse, this is the only way."
