Husband is a piece of cloud cake

Dressed in a silver crown robe, the eldest son's expression was very solemn. He came to see Cui Qi with the etiquette that has been used for hundreds of years to receive guests from Liuyunhou's mansion.

Sitting next to him, Lu Jing's demeanor was obviously a lot of sloppy.With one leg resting flat on the knee of the other, his hands kept playing with the silver leaves on the tassel of the sword.He looked at Xue Nanyu with sweet eyes, but once he turned to Cui Qi, it immediately changed into a vicious expression of a loyal dog protecting food.

Cui Qi couldn't help being amused, because he found that Zi Yang didn't look sideways, so dignified and solemn that he didn't make eye contact with Lu Jing at all.Such a person who avoids suspicion is really worthy of Zi Yang.So the elder brother smiled and put down the teacup.

"One of my missions in Shangxiao Peak for hundreds of years is to protect Jianmu and Shuijing. I usually don't enter easily, and I will never allow anyone to enter or leave without permission. If someone enters the mirror privately, the disciples of Shangxiaofeng must capture him ——In this regard, our purpose is the same as that of the Hou Mansion."

In a word, Cui Qi expressed her position.The eldest son smiled slightly, saluted and said.

"It is precisely because I also know that the mission of Shangxiao Peak is to protect Jianmu, and it is completely different from the previous guest stars who intend to stir up disputes in the world, so I dare to bother Brother Cui and conspire with me on this matter-thank you here Brother Cui."

He said this politely and respectfully, with the attitude of a lord.Lu Jing rubbed his nose, and couldn't help laughing inwardly: But I've been on the saddle for so long, and I haven't seen you even say a word of thanks. It seems that you really don't treat me as an outsider.

Cui Qi laughed too, and crossed her hands in return.

"My lord, you are polite. Please tell me, my lord, the whole story of those things."

Xue Nanyu pondered quietly, and leisurely said something that both Cui Qi and Lu Jing were greatly surprised by.

"12 years ago, I met those laymen Baihe."

12 years ago, shouldn't you be outside the mirror?

Lu Jing's heart skipped a beat, and Zi Yang continued.

"It was spring, and the begonias were just blooming. My father seemed to have got the news, and returned to Liuyun County early to wait for some people."

At that time, Marquis Liuyun had been accompanying the king in Yingdu for many years, and it was rare for the eldest son to see him, so of course he was very happy to see him suddenly return to the city.Since his birth mother died young, his father was the closest person to him.But when Liu Yunhou saw his long-lost son and returned to his long-lost hometown, he was full of worries on his face.He patted his son on the shoulder first, and said with a big smile.

——My son has grown taller again.

Then he turned around and asked his followers.

——Is the bone erosion incense prepared?

"Bone erosion?" Lu Jing couldn't help being curious.

Xue Nanyu asked the servant to fetch a small box, opened it, and showed the two brothers a white bullet inside.Lu Jing took it first, sniffed left and right and found nothing unusual, Cui Qi turned to look at it for herself, and found it colorless and odorless, as if it had no toxicity at all.The eldest son smiled.

"If this thing doesn't ignite, it won't do any harm—well, even if it ignites, it won't do any harm to the person in the mirror. It's only used to deal with people like you, monks who come from outside the mirror. "

Cui Qi and Lu Jing looked at each other, understanding that Zi Yang took the initiative to reveal Liuyun County's killer to show his honesty.And this memory of him is obviously the experience of the eldest son in the mirror.Zi Yang, who once lived outside the mirror on Shangxiao Peak, is certainly a living soul in the mirror, but Xue Nanyu, who has not left Liuyun County in the water mirror, has his own independent life.Two periods of life and two periods of memory blended with each other to create the Ziyang in front of him.

So is he more Junior Brother Xue in Shangxiao Peak, or is he more eldest son in the water mirror?

Cui Qi thought to herself.I heard Xue Nanyu continue.

"I didn't understand what bone erosion was at the time." He said quietly, recalling the scene at that time.

After getting close to his son for a while, the father was busy making arrangements.He seemed to be waiting for someone, those people should be distinguished guests or powerful enemies, worthy of Liuyun Hou Congying rushing back overnight and waiting in the city early.The young eldest son didn't understand why the attributes of distinguished guests or powerful enemies would be concentrated on a group of people at the same time, but that night, the guest star arrived.

"It was a group of stars of different colors, shining in brilliance, falling like rain in the direction of Yuzhong Mountain. I also witnessed it with my own eyes at the time, but I didn't know what it was."

In fact, many things, Xue Nanyu only came to understand later.The father in the mirror had always protected him, and even thought he protected him too well, so that even though he was a young boy at that time, he was still innocent and ignorant.The truth behind these recollections was only discovered one by one by him from Shang Xiaofeng's memories and from the mysteries learned by that master, such as the secrets of the Medicine School, such as the more detailed stargazing technique.The mystery in the water mirror can only be solved by experience outside the water mirror, which is enough to make the eldest son feel embarrassed.

"Xingyun?" Lu Jing couldn't help asking again: "Did they fall off the Jade Bell Mountain at that time?"

"No." The eldest son shook his head: "All outsiders who enter the water mirror will leave traces in the sky. This seems to be a rule created when this world was separated from yours. It should be to remind people in the mirror You are here. It’s just that no one except the historian of Qin Tianjian can understand what these stars mean.”

Was it the Queen of Mountains and Seas or Jing Ling who created this rule?

Cui Qi thought for a while and asked, "Did the guest star appear when Junior Brother Lu and I came?"

Xue Nanyu smiled softly: "Zian's guest star is blue. I saw it with my own eyes in the night sky. Later, I measured the star trajectory and found out that he is still in Liuyun County. Brother Cui, although you came from Underground, but the Qin Tianjian in Liuyun County also has a record of accompanying you into the mirror guest star."

"What about you, Zi Yang." Cui Qi smiled: "Is there any guest star who came with you?"

After all, you are not a pure person in the mirror.

Xue Nanyu was taken aback for a moment, smiled lightly for a long time, and said slowly.

"Yes. It's just that a dark star came with me, and there was no obvious trace in the sky. Because at that time, I could be regarded as a dead person inside and outside the mirror. And this dark star, in the past two years, Hoshino has been staying in Floating Cloud City, and I deduced its existence from its influence on other surrounding stars. So—"

He raised the corners of his lips slightly, with a self-deprecating expression.

"—Even if I hid here, I would still be a disaster, a curse."

"Fart!" Lu Jing immediately became angry: "Who said that to you!? Tell him to get out, I let him try my sword!"

He frowned, Xue Nanyu looked up at him leisurely, and smiled coolly.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to try..."

But seeing Lu Jing's expression, Xue Nanyu interrupted the topic himself.

"The Hou Mansion sent people to look for it the next day, and found that there were signs of collapsed cliffs and scorched vegetation on Yuzhong Mountain. Those guest stars landed here, and it happened to be 12 years since the last guest star of Liuyun County was photographed. .”

Asking people to move out the star corona, the eldest son slowly moved those shiny and slender orbiting copper rings, and lightly turned the stars on it to an orbit.

"And every 12 years, this astrology will appear once."
