The sea is wide and the mountains are far away

Chapter 11

During the few days when Zhang Liang lived in Fushui Mountain Villa, Jun Shanyao blushed and said nothing for many times.She had never thought that this evildoer was so black-bellied and shameless before. Only now did she realize that she was blind in the past and was not good at knowing people.

She lay on the railing of the waterside pavilion and watched the fish swimming in the pond, with bamboo slips half a person's height piled up behind her.Her understanding of the Shennong Ding was very limited, and she felt that since the alchemists were guarding the Shennong Ding, there should be a lot of information related to the Shennong Ding in Fushui Villa, so she ordered people to sort out all the classics in the villa. come out.However, she has been in the villa for so many years, and she has read all the books in the villa. In the end, most of them teach swordsmanship, but she does not give up. She is afraid that she has missed something in the past, and now she has to read it again. .

Naturally, Jun Shanyao was unwilling to do such a huge project by himself, and such a secret could not be known to the apprentices for the time being, so Zhang Liang was forced to take on this drudgery with the flow.

So there is a very contrasting situation now: Jun Shanyao is so idle that he is bored, while Zhang Liang is so busy that he is devastated.

Jun Shanyao warmly poured a cup of tea for Zhang Liang, and grabbed a book to read.She can be said to be very anxious now, she really doesn't know where the Shennong Ding is, Jun Baiye has never held back from her, only this matter has never been mentioned to her.Jun Shanyao pawed at the pile of books twice, then fell in depressed.

"Ayao." Zhang Liang raised his eyes helplessly.

Jun Shanyao straightened his face, sat up straight quickly, and said, "How's the investigation?"

Hearing this, Zhang Liang shook his head and sighed, and said angrily, "There is no progress. You have been in Fushui Villa for so many years and you don't know, how can I find clues in such a short time?"

"That's right." Jun Shanyao touched his chin, "I was thinking, would the first owner of the village really record such an important matter and pass it down? What if it was passed on by word of mouth?"

"I don't think so. There is no impenetrable wall in the world. In order to avoid the situation where the previous owner died before he had time to confess, there must be a record handed down. I think it should be hidden in a very hidden place... ..."

Jun Shanyao shook his head and interrupted Zhang Liang: "I have been in the villa for nearly 20 years, and I know everything about the villa. There should be no more secrets for me."

"But about combining the Shennong Ding, at least there are still things in the villa that you don't know about."

That's right, Jun Shanyao thought while resting his chin.Since this is a secret held by every owner, it is very likely that it is within their reach.Thinking of this, Jun Shanyao took Zhang Liang to the house where her master lived before his death.

The moment he opened the door and walked in, a familiar aura came over his face, and Jun Shanyao couldn't help but burst into tears.Since her master's accident, she has never been here again, and only arranged for regular cleaning, and the items in the house remained as they were.

"Ayao." Zhang Liang put his hand on her shoulder, "Leave the memories for later."

"No need." Jun Shanyao wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Keep the kindness in your heart, and the past is unnecessary."

The furnishings in Jun Baiye's house have not been moved at all, and they still look familiar to Jun Shanyao.It was inconvenient for Zhang Liang to enter, so he waited in the yard outside.

There were indeed several organs in the house, and Jun Shanyao knew about them. She opened them one by one to check them in order, and then touched each one inside, for fear that there was something left behind.

She fiddled with the house for about two hours, until it got dark and turned the house over, but there was no new receipt.Jun Shanyao walked out dejectedly, seeing that Zhang Liang was still guarding outside, he couldn't help speeding up his pace.

Seeing her like this, Zhang Liang must have gained nothing from her, so he didn't ask too much.But if Zhang Liang didn't ask, it doesn't mean that Jun Shan didn't say anything. The girl grabbed Zhang Liang's sleeve and said, "I've searched all over Master's house, but there's nothing in it. If Master doesn't hide the clues in his own house , where will it be placed?"

Zhang Liang looked at her: "Generally speaking, the most dangerous place is also the safest place."

"No." Jun Shanyao denied, "The Yinyang family will definitely check my master's room strictly. According to their insight, if there are clues in the master's room, they will not miss it. Now the only explanation is that Shennong Ding The clues are elsewhere."

"So where is it according to your view?"

"I don't know yet..." Jun Shanyao rubbed his temples and regretted.

In the dead of night, the sound of insects chirping in the mountains.

Candles were still burning in Jun Shanyao's room, Zhang Liang urged her to sleep several times but it was useless, so he had to let her go.

The fire in the room was bright and dark, illuminating her face so that it was hard to tell whether it was sunny or not.Jun Shanyao propped her forehead with one hand, and held an empty teacup with the other. She has become the owner of Fushui Mountain Villa since she was a little out of control before. She calmed down and rarely felt anxious, but now, this kind of The feeling came back.

Her eyes swept randomly across the room, and finally stopped at a gossip formation.She has lived here for nearly 20 years, seeing this formation every day, but never thought about why it is here.

By chance tonight, she might be able to find out.

Jun Shan walked over, and gently stroked the gossip pattern with his hand.

Her fingers stopped at the position of the first hexagram, and rubbed it twice.

wrong!There is a problem with this hexagram!

This hexagram is engraved on the wall, but there are subtle seams where each hexagram is connected.She was startled, and thought to herself, could there be a hidden mechanism in this hexagram?

If this mechanism is related to Shennong Ding, and Shennong is also known as the "Emperor of the Earth", then the hexagrams that activate the mechanism must be related to "Earth".Jun Shanyao thought for a while, and pressed the three hexagrams Kun, Gen, and Dui at the same time.

After a while, the gossip diagram split into two halves and opened slowly like two doors. Jun Shanyao watched in amazement at the operation of the mechanism, and finally the beast took down the small box in the dark compartment.

The box is square and has a small hole on the side.Jun Shanyao fumbled in the dark compartment for a long time, but he couldn't find the key.The excitement that was originally full of excitement turned into ice particles in an instant.

She hurriedly went to Zhang Liang's room, broke in, and shook Zhang Liang who was sleeping soundly awake.

Zhang Liang half-closed his eyes and managed to see the person coming, then helplessly rubbed his messy hair, and said, "What happened?"

Jun Shanyao proudly shook the box in his hand.

Zhang Liang was drowsy, but was woken up halfway, he was listless, now seeing Jun Shanyao holding something in his hand, Quan thought the little girl was here to amuse him.For the first time in his life, he rolled his eyes unreservedly, and said in a daze, "Got it, go to sleep."

Seeing that he didn't take his achievements seriously, Jun Shan suddenly became angry, grabbed his collar and raised his voice: "I found the clue of Shen Nong Ding!"

Hearing the word "Shen Nong Ding", Zhang Liangqiang suppressed the swell of drowsiness, held Jun Shanyao's hand and said, "Even if you find it, you don't have to pick my clothes excitedly, do you?"

Jun Shanyao looked down, only to see that the already baggy clothes became looser after grabbing them with all his strength, and she could already see the other party's chest from this angle.Jun Shanyao blushed, and hurriedly let go of his hand, signaling Zhang Liang to straighten his clothes quickly.Zhang Liang tightened his clothes unhurriedly, and asked, "How, do you have any clues?"

Jun Shanyao handed the small box in his hand to him, and said, "I found it in a secret compartment in my house." Zhang Liang took the box and flipped through it for a while. The box was engraved with a human body, a cow's head, and a dragon's face. The person in question is the legendary Shennong.

"Have you found the key?"

Speaking of this, Jun Shanyao lowered his head in frustration, and said, "No. And the box seems to be made of Jiutian black iron, and ordinary sharp weapons can't break it at all."

"That is to say, if you can't find the key, the box is still useless?" Zhang Liang squinted at her, making Jun Shanyao shiver uncontrollably.

"Such a small hole, the key to open it must be very unique. When I get all the keys in the villa and try one by one, I will be able to open it." Jun Shanyao vowed.After speaking, he put down the box and stood up to get the key, but Zhang Liang grabbed him.

"What's wrong?" Jun Shanyao turned around and asked suspiciously.

Seeing the inscrutable smile on Zhang Liang's face, Jun Shanyao, who has always been amazingly perceptive, couldn't help but be surprised.

"It's so late, let's talk about the key tomorrow. You just woke up my dream, shouldn't you apologize?"

"I……"
