Chapter 88 Cassia

Although the styles are different, Baili Jueming can tell at a glance that these bronze mirrors are all magic weapons made by Xianmen.Jiangzuo Xianmen's artifacts are very particular. Each artifact will be engraved with the name of the craftsman and the date of delivery. If there is any defect or something wrong, it will be easy to pursue responsibility.The groceries sold in the square market are not so particular. If they are sold, they will be ignored. If they are broken, they can only consider themselves unlucky.Therefore, the magic weapon produced by Xianmen can last for a long time, and the asking price in the market is very high.

Baili Jueming looked for the delivery date of these bronze mirrors in front of the lamp, some were 80 years ago, some were 200 years ago, and most of them were 30 years ago.The date of delivery was 30 years ago, and the delivery time of this batch of bronze mirrors to Mujiabao could only be later.This is so fucking weird, 30 years ago he had already turned into a ghost, playing chess pieces and sleeping in Baochen Mountain, this batch of goods was not sent by him at all.Either Mu Pingwu had the guts to lie to him again, or even Mu Pingwu didn't know that a group of people quietly transported the fourth batch of goods into Mujiabao.

The side in his hand has the earliest date, 240 years ago, Baili Jueming decided to start looking at it from this side.

"Found it?" Shi Wunian came over and saw a box of bronze mirrors in Baili Jueming's hand, his eyes also revealed a look of surprise.

"I couldn't find it," Baili Jueming said, "These are not Mu Pingwu's mirrors."

Shi Wunian squatted down, scraped the edge of the iron wooden box with a knife, and looked at it under the lamp.There was a red mark on the blade, which was dried blood mud.

"Interesting," he laughed. "It turns out that there is a fourth batch of goods. After Mujiabao was corroded by blood, someone secretly sent them into the bunker."

"Did you find anything in the scriptures just now?" Baili Jueming began to draw symbols on the mirror, trying to open the bronze mirror.

"Most of them record the Masang Black Sect and the old history of Masang, and wrote a lot of mystical things they believed in. It is not very useful to us for the time being, so I will go back and talk about it in detail." Shi Wu said.

The last stroke of the fire talisman was completed, and the golden-red talisman light disappeared instantly.The rusted mirror surface became clear, and there seemed to be water ripples that opened in circles, and a clear image appeared in it.Sure enough, this batch of goods was sent in by Baochenshan, and nine out of ten it was the old man Wudu.Baili Jueming wondered, how many things did Wudu hide from him?In the past 50 years when he became a ghost, he either retreated or went out. Baili Jueming didn't expect him to come to Mujiabao.

Put the bronze mirror under the lamp, and the two stared at the mirror together, and the scene in the mirror was fully displayed.

The picture in the mirror is very blurry, perhaps because the mirror is too old, and the light and shadow have merged into one.There were many hurried footsteps coming from inside, as if there were many people walking around, as well as women's mournful wailing and shouting.Many people were speaking in low tones and muttering, inaudible.

"Did you give birth?" a male voice said.

"Not yet, the time is coming."

After a while, a baby's cry came from afar, and the two people beside the mirror seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"The time is just right. When the year is cloudy, the moon is cloudy and the sun is cloudy, the inborn is pure yin," the man who asked the question just now said again, "They will not allow him to survive, I will take him away."

Baili Jueming narrowed his eyes, and his teacher Wu Nian looked at each other.Both of them were very familiar with this voice, and the person who spoke was the former Baili Cassia.

Before the other person could speak, the baby's crying stopped abruptly, and there were hurried footsteps running over.

"Great Master, Elder Jue Ming, it's bad, Siyin boy was thrown to death by his father!"

The scene in the mirror kept shaking, and the person holding the mirror seemed to be running.They seemed to have come to a wooden house, and the people inside turned their heads, all pale in shock, a phantom walked around them, and everyone remained in astonishment, frozen in place like puppets.The phantom stagnated, it was the back of a man, tall and tall in a black robe.

The mirror never reflected his face, but he picked up the baby in the pool of blood, put it on the table, pushed away the crimson flannelette, a row of silver needles were neatly inserted inside, the needles were scalded by the candle, and the fireflies Light flickers.A white hand needled the baby, and the long, thin needles of cow hair pierced into the big holes all over the baby's body, but the baby's face was already bruised and purple, and there was no way to recover.

The hand stopped the needle, and a deep voice came from the mirror: "When will the next Siyin boy be born?"

Someone answered him: "Yichou year, Jimao month, Yichou day, Jimao time. The year of Masang is the eighth year of Tianjixing, and the year of Central Plains is... 60 years later."

Every action in Baochen Mountain will be recorded with an octagonal bronze mirror. Afterwards, several bronze mirrors have recorded Baili Jueming's unsuccessful search for Siyin boys. Those babies were either stillborn or a step late. They have been thrown to death, strangled to death, drowned... Every Siyin boy cannot escape the bad luck of premature death. In the mirror, the little bluish and dull faces of those babies appeared countless times, and his cat-like thin body was buried in dark brown soil.Until Baili Jueming's voice finally disappeared, only Wudu was left walking alone.

Baili Jueming frowned, Baochenshan had been looking for the Siyin boy hundreds of years ago, and it was no accident that Wudu brought back Xunwei.Why is this, why are they looking for Siyin boy?

In the spring of March in the south of the Yangtze River, willows sway along the embankment.

"Grand Master, the child was born, and Xie's family named it 'Xunwei'. From "Baopuzi": "Xunwei is known to write, and the original is to see the end." Shall we take her away?"

Wudu's old voice came slowly, "No need, now that she has a name, the Xie family will keep her. Send more people to Xie's mansion to monitor closely, this child must not be lost."

"The family rules of Xie's house are strict, so it's not easy to mix in. How about placing bronze mirrors all over the mansion, I'll open the small virtual door on the mirror, and look at Mrs. Gu Xunwei through the hole of the virtual door."

The mirror was handed to Wudu, Wudu took the bronze mirror, and his kind face appeared on the mirror.

"Alright, let's do it like this." Wu Du said.

The scene in the next mirror is much clearer, but the angle of each mirror is extremely tricky and weird.Either look down, or look up, or peek at the figure from the corner.These mirrors were obviously placed in dark corners that were difficult to notice, watching Xie Xunwei's growth from all directions.Looking at these pictures, Baili Jueming couldn't tell what it was like.It turns out that Xun Weida has been living under the eyes of a group of people she doesn't know since she was born.These shadow-like people hide in a certain corner of the world, closely monitoring Xunwei's every day through the hole in the octagonal bronze mirror.No wonder when Xie's mansion was killed, Wudu left so quickly and rescued Xunwei.He didn't pass by Xie's house to save people, but went to save people.

The light and shadow of the picture whizzed by, and Xiao Xunwei, who had just turned one year old, appeared in the distant view in the mirror.There are big red flowers tied on the doll's back, and it stretches out its hands and screams.Xie Cenguan placed many things around her, unsharpened knives, rouge and gouache in porcelain boxes, a few small gold lacquer seals, and even hangluo dresses worn by girls.

"Baby, grab something you like," Xie Cenguan patted Xun's slightly round buttocks.

Xiao Xun crawled around slightly, didn't grab the knife or the skirt, and came back with the doll in his mouth.

"Where did the doll come from?" Xie Cenguan snapped her mouth in doubt.

"Hey, it seems to be Elder Jueming from Baochen Mountain." Someone said.

Shi Wu Nian's brows locked into a deep ravine.

Xie Cenguan in the mirror asked: "Who put the doll of Elder Baili here?" He coaxed Xiao Xunwei, "My dear, let's catch another one. What's so good about an old man? It's dirty and smelly. Let's catch one Dao, father will teach you the most powerful sword technique in the world."

Baili Jueming: "..."

This mirror is placed in some mysterious corner, obliquely facing the main hall door, outside the door is the promenade of Xie Mansion, which is filled with running water mats, and people come and go under the green eaves.The mirror was suddenly blocked by a piece of robe, and someone stood in front of the mirror, the robe covering the view.

Jiang Ruoxu's voice clearly appeared in the mirror, "Xie Cenguan is too ungrateful, the little lady has caught Elder Jueming, he should send the little lady to Baochen Mountain to learn from him, it's a waste of my pains to take Elder Jueming away!" The puppet was quietly stuffed into the Zhou banquet."

"Forget it, let's talk about it later." Wudu's voice said, "Ruoxu, you continue to monitor Xie's family, and report to me if there is any change."

The mirror in the future records Xie Xunwei's growth from one year old to six years old, which are basically scattered fragments.It should be because Xie's family style is strict, and the security is quite strict. There are not many mirrors installed in it. After a while, the mirrors will be replaced. The old mirrors are recycled, and the new mirrors enter Xie's house.However, even if they can enter the Xie Mansion, most of them can only be planted in the corners of flowers and plants, and they can rarely enter the mansion.

Even so, these records are enough for Baili Jueming. He looks in the mirror one by one, and his little apprentice grows up little by little in this mirror, and becomes taller little by little.For the first time, he knew what Xun Wei looked like before he came to hold Chenshan. The little girl has been squeamish since she was a child, and she pouted her mouth high when she was unhappy, and she could hang strings of gourds on it.She speaks like a baby, likes to be coquettish, likes to steal food, and also likes to play catch and cat with the servants, and several times she is only a few steps away from the mirror inserted in the dark.Baili Jueming remembered that when she first came to Baochen Mountain, she washed his clothes, brought him water to wash his feet, and was his little slave without saying a word. She didn't show such a delicate temperament at all.She suffered too much, and the suffering forced her to become sensible.

I roughly picked a few bronze mirrors to look at, and they all have similar contents.When Xun Wei was six years old, the bronze mirror records came to an abrupt end.Both Baili Jueming and Shi Wunian knew that Xie's family was wiped out, and Xie Xunwei was sent to Baochen Mountain by Wudu, so there is no need to record it in the bronze mirror.

Shi Wunian lowered his eyelashes, and asked softly: "Why does Baochen Mountain need Siyin boys, I thought..."

He thought that the encounter between him and Master was a coincidence.

He suddenly remembered that Jiang Ruoxu said that Grandpa Wudu had been doing the same thing for many years.Now it seems that the master is also involved, as well as the ancestors of Baochenshan.There must have been many people in Baochen Mountain. For hundreds of years, they used the name of the battle to clear the ghost domain to secretly explore the ghost country and the Masangu tribe, and sacrificed countless people. As a result, the talents withered later, leaving only one bare mountain. Grandmaster and an Elder Elder.However, in the end, even Shizun lost his life and became a ghost.

Now, that matter is about to come to fruition.And the person who completed it was the Siyin boy they had been looking for—Xie Xunwei.

What is his relationship with Marsan?In other words, what is the relationship between Siyin Tongzi and Ma Sang?What exactly is Baochen Mountain doing?

"There is also a mirror." Baili Jueming said suddenly.

He turned the iron wooden box over, and a bronze mirror with missing corners was glued to the back of the iron wooden box with rice paste, and a striking fire symbol was drawn with cinnabar on the side.This is the communication method of the people in the fairy gate. Those who entered the ghost domain first used the family symbol to remind them of the message left by the person who entered the ghost domain later. Generally, the messages marked with the symbol are very important.

There is a fire symbol drawn next to it, which means that its recipient is Baili Cassia.

This is the second message Wudu left for Baili Jueming after the Ice Chan Jade Box from the Ghost Country.

The bronze mirror is very dilapidated. There are many spots of bright red blood and deep scratches on it, and there are burnt marks on the corners. It looks like it has gone through a lot of hardships.Baili Jueming took it off, and the date engraved on the top of the mirror button was 58 years ago.He stared at the mirror and fell silent for a moment.

"What do you remember?" Shi Wunian asked him.

"No," said Baili Jueming, "I've never seen this mirror before."

The candle flame of the ever-burning lamp jumped up and down, and Baili Jueming's cheeks were bright and dark in this light.He was suddenly a little scared, as if opening this bronze mirror, some things would be irreversible.The dense tremors appeared in my heart again, just like when facing the ghost mother, fear entangled and grew like granulation.A box of inexplicable bronze mirrors records Baochenshan's search for Siyin boy, and Xunwei's childhood. He is very disturbed, and the mirror is like a pack of gunpowder in his hand.

"Otherwise, keep it in mind and drive it when you go back. Mu Zhishen doesn't believe it yet." Baili Jueming said.

"Let's drive now." Shi Wunian pressed his shoulder.

This kid is more active than him.But what he said was right, the secret was close at hand, how could he not open it?Baili Jueming suppressed the dense clouds in his heart, and slowly stretched out his fingers, brilliant golden light flickered on his fingertips, he scratched towards the mottled mirror surface, and the fire talisman suddenly formed on his fingertips.Ripples appeared on the mirror, and a secret was silently opened to them.

The mirror was pitch black, and with a chirping sound, a cluster of golden flames rose up, sparks scattered like little butterflies, and familiar faces appeared in the darkness.This is not the first time that Baili Jueming has faced himself. He used to see this face when he washed his face every day in Baochen Mountain.But today he seemed to see a strange person, a strange self.

As Mu Pingwu said, he had an extremely indifferent face during his lifetime.Long black eyebrows, sharp brows and feet, carrying the evil spirit only of swords.Being stared at by him intently, it was as if a piece of ice was lying in my heart.

The man said: "If our plan does not go wrong, you should be Baili Cassia in decades. If our hundred-year plan has been completed to ten percent, there should be a child born with pure yin by your side." He There was a hint of sarcasm on his lips, and he didn't know who he was taunting, "It's strange to speak like this, but I have to speak in this way."

Baili Jueming looked at himself in the mirror, and for some reason wanted to hit him so much.

"It's too unfortunate that you have only completed [-]% of your century-old plan, and Xunwei didn't come. No matter what you and Wudu want to do, don't try to involve Xunwei." Baili Jueming sneered.

"I am very glad to meet you." The man bowed his head and lit a candle, "However, you appear here, which means that you missed the message that your brother left you. This is a very bad thing, and the steps are likely to go wrong. Some unexpected mistakes. So you must firmly remember every word I say next. Otherwise..." He raised his face and met the eyes of Cassia Cassia outside the mirror.It has spanned 58 years, but it seems to be close at hand.He said word by word: "Your pure yin child will die."
