Cold Blade of Doom

After a while, Wei Shengyan pulled out the red thread on her neck, and a piece of jade in the shape of a triangular cone fell into the palm of her hand, the exquisite and translucent jade body still had the warmth of her body.Baili Zui sat aside, with her long hair neatly tied behind her head, watching Wei Shengyan dripping blood onto the jade pendant, a look of shock flashed in her eyes.

She also knew the existence of Weisheng's family heirloom, but she didn't expect that the chief had already given this piece of jade to Weishengyan, and she also didn't expect that the legendary He's Bi was such a small piece.

When the blood disappeared on the jade, Wei Shengyan's heart twitched, feeling that there was an invisible thread on her body, as if something had established a connection with her.Her eyes became blurred, like wearing foggy eyes.When everything became clear again, she was surprised to find herself in a strange space.

The surrounding area was empty, and in front of him was a towering mountain peak.There is no grass or tree on the mountain, only bare stones.There was a cave not far from her. There was something in the cave that attracted her, so she walked into it slowly.

The cave is very bright. If you look carefully, there is a goose egg-sized night pearl inlaid on the cave wall every few meters.The long corridor seemed endless, and she walked for a long time, at a slower and slower speed—she was attracted by the vivid pictures on the cave walls.

At first, there was a scene very similar to the scene outside the cave, the only difference was that there was a man without legs sitting at the foot of the mountain, holding a stone in his hand, as if he was crying, blood and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.Immediately afterwards there was a resplendent picture, a majestic middle-aged man sitting on top of the magnificent and solemn hall, he was clapping his hands and smiling, while the man in the previous picture was sitting in the hall, beside him was a A man with the appearance of a craftsman with a file hanging on his waist was holding a piece of beautiful jade with a clear luster.

At the bottom of this mural, there are a few lines of ancient texts. Weishengyan looked at the light of the night pearl. It was written: Chu people and his family got jade in Chu Mountain, and offered it to King Li, and King Li made the jade man Correspondingly.The jade man said: "It's a stone." The king took peace as a lie, and cut off his left foot.As for the death of King Li, King Wu ascended the throne, and King Wu who offered his raw materials.King Wu sent a jade man to meet him, and said: "It is also a stone." The king thought that peace was a lie, and cut off his right foot.When King Wu died and King Wen ascended the throne, He Nai hugged his Pu and wept under the Chu Mountain. For three days and three nights, the tears were exhausted, followed by blood.Wang Wenzhi asked people to ask why, and said: "There are too many people in the world who are cutting, and Zixi is crying?" He said: "I am not sorry for cutting, but I am sorry for my husband's precious jade. I am deceitful, and this is why I feel sorry for you." The king asked the jade man to sort out the roughness and get the treasure, and he ordered him to say: "The jade of Heshi."

Isn't this the description of He Shibi in "Han Feizi"?Wei Shengyan thought, and walked to the next stone wall.

In the painting, there is a man wearing a crown hat and robes. He is holding a precious jade and squinting at the courtyard pillars, as if he is about to hit the pillars.Not far from him, there was a man in a fancy dress and a crown of princes who was guarded by guards, who was waving his hand to stop him.

Then the picture changed, a monarch with thick eyebrows and thick beard and a sword on his waist was holding a square jade seal. The jade seal was engraved with seal characters, which looked like a dragon and a phoenix. If you look carefully, it reads the horoscope of "Ordered by the sky, long life and eternal prosperity" .It is the seal of the Qin Dynasty.

Next is a young man in plain clothes with a white horse tied around his neck bowing his head and bowing his head while holding the Chuan Guoxie. In front of him is a middle-aged man in armor with very cunning eyes, in the painting.Wei Shengyan guessed that this was the scene of Qin Prince Ying surrendering to Liu Bang, because there are only a handful of such scenes in history where a monarch personally surrenders, let alone such a young emperor, a general who is already forty or fifty, and the white horse in plain clothes Isn't it exactly what Ziying wore when he surrendered in the history books?

Then there was a white-haired old woman in Chinese clothes sitting behind the couch, angrily throwing the Chuan Guoxi to the ground.A good-looking young man knelt in front of her, shocked when he saw this.Under the screen, it is written: Wang Mang usurped the throne, Beiyang Hou entered the palace to ask for the seal, the Yuan empress angrily reprimanded it, threw it in the hall, and the seal was missing, and it was replaced with gold.

In the same room afterward, a young man in white was squatting on the ground, holding a small piece of jade in the shape of a triangular cone, thinking deeply.

The picture ends here.After walking a few steps forward, the road ahead suddenly became very wide, and she realized that she had reached the end of the corridor.

A spacious hall appeared in front of my eyes, both the ground and the four walls were pure white, and I don't know what kind of material it was made of.Weishengyan went straight to the luminous place, where there was a very long desk with more than a dozen wooden signs neatly placed on it. At a glance, the first two characters on the sign were all "Weisheng".

Ranked first from the left is Weisheng Yu, the fourth generation head of the Weisheng family. His deeds are described in detail under the wooden plaque, including when and when he was born, when he married a wife, and when he gave birth to a child. The most clear It is the achievement of his life.At the bottom, there is a line of small golden characters: Xiwen.

She looked at the wooden signs one by one, and found that they were all ancestors who had been recorded in the genealogy. The things described were all in the same format, but when they walked in the world, they often used aliases, and the small golden characters were different. Most of them were Xiwen, In addition to martial arts, there are rule of law, making utensils, marching soldiers, engineering and painting, doing business, and governing the country... These just correspond to their subsequent achievements. There is such a stunning figure born, if not for using various pseudonyms, it is estimated that the Weisheng family has long been known to the world.

The more Weishengyan looked at it, the more frightened she became. Many of the historical figures she was familiar with turned out to be the ancestors of Weisheng's family?

There is a stone tablet next to the desk, which is still in seal script.Wei Shengyan finally understood why the members of Wei Sheng's family had to learn such obscure characters.The main idea of ​​the stele is: Weisheng’s family got a corner of the national seal at the end of the Western Han Dynasty. It is the essence of the seal, so it has been passed down from generation to generation.Later generations, those who are compatible with jade can enter here to learn the way of harmony.

In other words, those people on the wooden signs are the ones who can use this space?Thinking like this, Wei Shengyan walked to a wall without knowing it, and a voice in her heart told her: Put your hands on it.The moment she touched the wall, the wall turned into a screen, and at the same time, a gentle voice like spring breeze came: Fingerprint entry successful...blood analysis successful...pupil entry successful...completed.

Wei Shengyan: "?" Didn't it mean that this is the corner of Yuxi?How can there be such an advanced thing?

"Alas, it's from Weisheng's family again!" The voice was no longer gentle, it seemed a little tired and boring.

Wei Shengyan was startled: "Who? Who's talking?"

"Stupid! It's me, you still ask me who I am in my body?"

Wei Shengyan: "..." There were too many things beyond cognition today, and she was almost numb.

"Little Weisheng, I have been with you for ten years, why don't you know me?"

Wei Shengyan's face instantly turned pale when he thought of the jade he had hanged for ten years.Is it really in that piece of jade?

The voice didn't know what Wei Shengyan was thinking and said to himself: "Forget it, since you're here, let's go and choose what to learn."

Wei Shengyan: "Choose?"

A figure came out from the light and shadow, looked at Wei Shengyan and said, "Didn't your elders tell you about me?"

Wei Shengyan opened his eyes wide, and stared at the man unblinkingly: "Why do you look like me?"

The man's face was calm: "Because I stayed on you for a long time and got your aura, the virtual character is naturally the same as you." Speaking of it, it has changed over the years, sometimes male, sometimes female, sometimes old Huo Shao, it's really annoying.

Wei Shengyan became interested, and chatted with her, consciously or unconsciously, got a lot of news that she urgently needed to know.

The person she was talking to was called Yu Ling, and according to her, it was taken by Wei Shengyu, who was also the first person to own this piece of jade.After that, she was handed down from generation to generation in Weisheng's family, sometimes changing owners for decades, and sometimes no one could enter the space for hundreds of years.According to Yuling, it is because the conditions of use are somewhat harsh, first of all it depends on whether the soul is suitable, which requires wearing jade on the body for a long time, ranging from ten years to decades.If a person can make the jade shine, then this person may be recognized by the jade spirit, and at the same time, the magnetic field of the jade can also support people in turn.

The ancestors who have been recognized can learn what they are interested in in the space. Their own talents and acquired hard study make most of them become masters in a certain field.

Therefore, some of the ancestors of the Weisheng family were famous all over the world when they were young, and some were late bloomers with gray beard and hair. Of course, most of them were unknown all their lives like everyone else.Inherited for thousands of years, the Weisheng family once enjoyed the prosperity and fell into the dust, but finally the inheritance has not been broken, which is inseparable from the achievements of those ancestors.

Wei Shengyan thought of the small golden letters he saw on the desk before, and thought: "Is their choice written in those small golden letters?"

Yuling nodded: "Yes. What do you want to learn? Studying literature, practicing martial arts, governing laws, making utensils, marching soldiers, painting, doing business, governing the country, rhythm, five elements, deception...anything is fine, there is only one requirement , since you have chosen, you must learn to great success, otherwise... refer to your ancestors who died early."

Wei Shengyan's expression became serious: "Why do you have everything? Are you so confident that you can get enough resources in any field? Also, why is it compulsory to learn to achieve greatness?"

Yu Ling smiled triumphantly: "That is, no matter what you want to learn, as long as you say it, you will have something to teach you, and...it must be something worth learning. As for why it is compulsory, you do not have enough authority, so I can't answer it."

Wei Shengyan grasped the key point: "Permission? This word should not have existed in ancient times. Also, your speaking habits are not like those in ancient times."

"You don't have permission to know this."

Wei Shengyan felt that Yuling didn't look like a person, but like a machine. She suppressed the doubts in her heart and asked again: "Then how can I get the authority?"

Yu Ling breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as you upgrade, you can get the corresponding permissions if you keep upgrading."

Wei Shengyan suddenly had a thought: "Then do you know how to suppress zombies?" Her father once said that those meteorites and this jade have the same wave band, combined with the magic of this jade, maybe there is a way.

Yu Ling: "I can only tell you that there is a way, but you don't have enough authority."

Wei Shengyan frowned, authority, authority again!

"Are human lives and futures more important than permissions?"

Yu Ling nodded: "I have no choice, authority is the basic rule."

Wei Shengyan sighed, okay.

"You, what do you want to learn?"

Wei Shengyan thought of the hatred on his body, and smiled bitterly: "There are always choices in this world, and indeed there are many options in front of me, but in fact, how can I have any choice?"
