Dinghai Fusheng Records

The next day, Xiang Shu was fully prepared to go out, seeing Chen Xing's appearance, but also changed his clothes, obviously wanting to go with him.

"Didn't sleep well last night?" Xiang Shu said.

That question was for Chen Xing, but Xie An took it, with sleepy eyes on his face, and replied: "It's rare that I don't have to go to court from now on. I should have a good sleep. Who would have thought that two birds were arguing in the middle of the night last night?" After talking endlessly, I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, and didn't close my eyes until it was almost dawn."

The corner of Chen Xing's mouth twitched and said, "Oh? Is there a bird? Why didn't I hear it?"

Xie An said: "That's right, one flew over from the west, and the other flew out from the east, you were chasing each other... First it flew like this, and then it flew like this..." As he spoke, he made gestures, He said again: "The one on the west side suddenly stopped moving again, and it knew it was screaming in my ear. Do you think it's strange?"

Item statement: "..."

Chen Xing: "???"

"Let's go." Xiang Shu said.

"I'll go with you." Chen Xing got up and said.

"Hey!" Xie An laughed immediately, "Don't worry, take me with you! Don't even think about leaving me behind!"

Chen Xing said: "You left by yourself, not by my side, what will you do if the corpse comes and arrests me later?"

Xie An said: "That's right, if the enemy comes, my old bones can't beat it."

"Chen Xing! Where are you going?" Xiao Shan said, "I'm going too!"

Chen Xing had no choice but to take Xiao Shan along with him. Xiang Shu wanted to ride a fast horse lightly and go back quickly, but Xie An prepared the carriage and asked Feng Qianjun to inform Feng Qianjun as if on an autumn outing.Then Feng Qianjun took Gu Qing with him, and Xie Daoyun happened to come to look for Gu Qing, so in the end it became a mighty figure in the Exorcism Department, plus two doctors, a large group of people left Jiankang, called business trips, but actually went to Nanping Mountain to eat and drink. , autumn is crisp, and I went to fly a kite.

Chibi was called Puqi in ancient times, and the mountains stretch continuously, like the dragon veins of heaven and earth, where the three peaks of Chibi Mountain, Nanping Mountain and Jinluan Mountain meet.

The white clouds are capped, the peaks stand tall, facing the river and Wanli Honghu Lake.In the high autumn day, the maples on the mountains are as red as fire, and the golden ginkgo trees are stacked, and there are also elm, mulberry, and plane trees dotted among them, layer by layer, leading for miles, reflecting the blue water of Honghu Lake. , Another waterfall in the mountain flew down like Bai Lian.

There is water in the mountains, and there are mountains in the water, as if the colorful mineral colors such as ocher, vermilion, red, and blue melt in the mountains and waters, it is really a beautiful world of uncanny craftsmanship and the creation of heaven and earth.

When the governor of Wuchang learned that Xie An was coming, his parents and officials hurriedly dispatched boats. At Xie An's command, several small boats were moored in the lake at the foot of the mountain.When he was halfway up the mountain, Chen Xing took out a copy of Zhang's manuscript written by Xiang Shu, compared the three mountains in front of him, and the large lake under the mountain. From this angle, it was indeed Nanping Mountain.

Xiang Shu said, "Where is the Seven Star Altar?"

Xie An said: "It's on the side of the mountain, on the cliff facing Honghu Lake, come, I'll take you to have a look."

In the afternoon, misty and rainy, Xie An walked all over the famous rivers and mountains when he was young, and he had a good memory. When he went up to Nanping Mountain, he was very familiar with the road, holding a paper umbrella, walking fast, and walked ahead in a few turns. Chen Xing Instead, he pulled the skirt of his robe and followed behind panting, unable to catch up with Xie An.

Xie Daoyun was originally walking with Xiao Shan, took a look, yelled a few times, and then took the initiative to stop and wait for Chen Xing.

"You can play well with Xiao Shan." Chen Xing said with a smile.

During Chen Xing's bedridden period, Xie Daoyun often came to see him. He came and went again and again, and became acquainted with Xiao Shan. When he entered the palace to see Sima Yao that day, Xie Daoyun even asked Xiao Shan to compete.

"Your little brother is worried about you every day," Xie Daoyun said, "Why are you always so heartless?"

"Where am I heartless?" Chen Xing asked inexplicably.

Xie Daoyun scoffed, and stopped talking. Chen Xing looked at Xie Daoyun suspiciously, and said, "Could it be that you have any thoughts about my godson?"

"Exorcist, besides these, is there anything else on your mind?" Xie Daoyun immediately became angry.

Xie Daoyun and Xiao Shan are always together, like a big sister. This combination surprised Chen Xing.

Of course, Chen Xing knew that Xiao Shan would grow up soon, and even in a few years, he might find someone he liked.According to the customs of the Jin Dynasty, marriage can be said at fourteen, while it was earlier for the Huns.But in Chen Xing's heart, Xiao Shan is really too young. Although he has grown a lot in the past six months, he is only 12 years old after all.

Thinking about it carefully, what Xie Daoyun called "heartless", Chen Xing also admitted that he hopes Xiao Shan can grow up quickly, at least not to be too attached to him, at least not to be attached to himself like Lu Ying.Otherwise, he will always look like a child who can't grow up, and after a few years he will not be around, how will Xiao Shan be independent?So he didn't treat Xiao Shan as a child when he was still in Hara and Lin, but treated him as an adult like himself, taught him to read and write, but avoided showing too much emotion.

Let him make more friends and deal with other people more, so as to avoid Chen Xing being the only one in Xiao Shan's world.

Chen Xing felt that Xiao Shan understood everything. In fact, Xiao Shan also understood. After meeting again in Kuaiji, Chen Xing took a lot of effort to apologize to him, and explained his thoughts regardless of Xiao Shan's half-understanding expression.From then on, Xiao Shan had a rough understanding of Chen Xing's intimacy, and understood that Chen Xing was urging him to grow up, hoping that one day he would be able to be alone.

Chen Xing looked bewildered, and wanted to ask you if you wanted to snatch Xiao Shan over there, but when Xie Daoyun said his godmother, the two of them suddenly became embarrassed.

"I have no idea!" Xie Daoyun said, "I want to ask him to be my master!"

"Oh." Chen Xing wiped off his cold sweat, nodded hastily, raised his hand and said, "I have no objection at all, will he agree?"

Chen Xing saw that Xiao Shan also liked Xie Daoyun quite a lot. Xie Daoyun actually wanted to learn martial arts from his master, but after thinking about it, Xie Daoyun had obviously learned a little martial arts. Most of the Xie family would not allow her to wield knives and guns. point.Xiang Shu didn't have the time to teach her, and Feng Qianjun couldn't fight with his fiancée's best friend, so Xie Daoyun could only find Xiao Shan.

Xie Daoyun said: "Master Xiao said that he wants to discuss with you, understand?"

Chen Xing nodded. At this time, Xiang Shu seemed to be deliberately lagging behind, listening to the two talking, Xie Daoyun fell silent and walked to the front.

"Go first and wait for me," Chen Xing leaned against a tree and said, "I'll take a break."

"Don't follow me out." Xiang Shu said impatiently.

Chen Xing had just recovered from a serious illness, and he was already weak. After his heart was damaged, he was out of breath when he climbed the mountain.Everyone looked at Chen Xing, Xiao Shan hesitated to speak, but Feng Qianjun moved Xiao Shan to go forward, saying: "Then Xiao Shan and I will go ahead to explore the way."

Chen Xing wiped his sweat, forced a smile, Xiang Shu waited for a while, and finally said: "Forget it, forget it, I'll carry you."

"No need," Chen Xing said, "I can do it... Brother Xie, how come you are so strong."

Xiang Shu didn't force Chen Xing either, and after a while, everyone went to the front, leaving Xiang Shu to follow Chen Xing, Chen Xing occasionally slipped along the way, the mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, and it rained one after another. Xiang's robe was soaked in a short while.

Chen Xingdao: "I still remember when you took me to climb Kaluosha, you were always so impatient, can't you wait?"

Xiang Shu took a deep breath, and was about to blame Chen Xing, but Chen Xing was very depressed, and said, "All right, I... I'd better go back to Jiankang, so I won't hold you back. I knew you were going to be angry."

Speaking of which, Chen Xing sighed, and said to himself: "I have been worried since I came out today, for fear that if I was not careful, I would make you unhappy again. I'm sorry, I'm going back."

Ever since Chen Xing felt that he liked Xiang Shu a little... no, he liked Xiang Shu a lot, he couldn't help interpreting his attitude towards him in various ways, and he didn't dare to blatantly tease him or make jokes about him. up.Xiang Shu also seemed to be aware of Chen Xing's sense of caution when the two got along, but for some reason, he would occasionally get angry uncontrollably, but whenever he wanted to control Chen Xing, Chen Xing showed a look of indifference and indifference. When he was working together, this kind of irritability would continue to pile up in Xiang Shu's heart, and finally he found an excuse to teach Chen Xing a lesson.

This time Xiang Shu didn't answer, but instead reached out his hand, held his hand, and led him slowly on the mountain road.

The drizzle was falling, and at that moment Chen Xing's heart was beating wildly. He followed behind Xiang Shu, and moved his fingers unconsciously, but Xiang Shu clenched his hand and tightened his palm without hesitation.

Chen Xing raised his eyes to look at Xiang Shu's side face, and found that he seemed to have never known him before. He always felt that sometimes Xiang Shu was easy to get angry, but sometimes he was very gentle, so gentle that he didn't even look like him.

But no matter what, Chen Xing felt that he was already a person in this world, and he was the one who knew him best. After all, everything had to be compared.

Xiang Shu looked at Chen Xing, and seemed to have something to explain, so Chen Xing shook his hand, meaning it was nothing.

Xiang Shu finally gave in, and took the initiative to say: "Sometimes I always feel that there will be a kind of irritability for no reason, is it a kind of hostility?"

"Arrogance?" Chen Xing only thought it was funny.

Xiang Shu replied casually: "There is an uncontrollable force, stuffy in my heart, looking for an outlet everywhere, trying to vent it." As he spoke, Xiang Shu seemed to think of many things for no reason at this moment, and said: "Sometimes I I also want to talk well, but for some reason, I always get impatient when I meet you... Forget it."

Chen Xing thought that you are not only treating me, you are impatient with everyone, and you don't even bother to say anything, but you are still kind to me.

Perhaps this is also one of the reasons why Xiang Shu's martial arts are so strong. Chen Xing always feels that Xiang Shu's martial arts have a sense of madness. The almost overflowing and uncontrollable strength may also be related to his inner self-restraint. .Most of the time, Xiang Shu was sober and rational, and Chen Xing was even a little surprised by his sobriety.But often when the two of them were alone, Xiang Shu's irritable side would show up inadvertently, always making Chen Xing cautious, for fear of saying something wrong.

"I want you to come," Xiang Shu simply said, "Yes, I want you to come together."

When Chen Xing heard this, he laughed immediately, and the haze in his heart was swept away in an instant. The smile was full of the happiness of a teenager, but he could only answer: "Oh, yes."

Xiang Shu said: "The mountains and rivers in the south are really beautiful, let's go."

Chen Xing's mood became brighter, but Xiang Shu let him go by himself, and when he reached the corner of Deshan Road, he looked back at him with complicated thoughts.

"After Wanfa is revived," Xiang Shu changed the subject and asked, "What are your plans?"

When Chen Xing was asked, he was quite surprised. He didn't know what Xiang Shu thought of, so he replied, "Look for a place to live in Jiankang? Let's live."

Passing through the foot of the mountain, the clouds cleared, and the two came to the high cliff and stood side by side, facing Honghu Lake at the foot of Nanping Mountain.

"Aren't you going to travel all over the mountains and rivers of the land of China? Have you changed your mind?"

Chen Xing realized that maybe because he came to Nanping Mountain today, Xiang Shu suddenly felt something, and then he remembered what he said when he was on the boat.

"Forgot," Chen Xing said with a smile, "Yes, you reminded me."

When Chen Xing was free, he would occasionally count the time. There were two years left, and the road ahead was more difficult than he had planned, and it took longer. He almost had no other thoughts. Thank goodness, it is estimated that there will be no time to visit the mountains and rivers by then, so it is better to find a quiet place to live for a while, so when asked, I blurted out subconsciously.

But this was unreasonable, and immediately aroused Xiang Shu's suspicion, making him look at Chen Xing suspiciously.Chen Xing felt a little guilty when he looked at him, he looked away unnaturally, and asked, "What about you? Want to go back to the north?"

Xiang Shu stood tall in front of the high cliff, and said casually, "If you want to travel thousands of miles, can you walk?"

Chen Xing laughed and said, "So what? Are you willing to accompany me? I'm afraid I will be scolded by you again on the road."

The cloud and mist gently covered the high cliff again, and Xiang Shu said in the mist: "Yes." Then he turned and left, walking towards the top of the mountain.Chen Xing was startled, what did I hear?

"Ah?" Chen Xing said, "What did you just say? Xiang Shu, wait for me!"

Chen Xing turned around in a hurry, but almost missed his foot. Xiang Shu had expected it, and grabbed Chen Xing's hand without looking in the mist.Chen Xing suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He almost fell down again just now. The mountain road is steep, and he slipped here and rolled down the slope.

Xiang Shu sized Chen Xing up and said, "If I don't follow you, I'm afraid you won't even be able to cross the Yangtze River."

Chen Xing smiled awkwardly.

Arriving at the height of the side peak of Nanping Mountain, the Seven Star Altar stands on the high platform halfway up the mountain, showing the whole picture, the sun shines down again, Xiao Shan is feeding a squirrel with Xie Daoyun under the tree, Feng Qianjun is holding Gu Qing's hand, the two are look aside.

The Seven Star Altar used to be Zhuge Liang's ashram. After the Battle of Chibi, the people of Jin transported bricks and rebuilt the tabletops in memory of that unprecedented battle.However, few people have been to Nandu when they are well-dressed.

Holding a folding fan, Xie An stood beside the Seven Stars Altar, chatting casually with Feng Qianjun, and couldn't help saying: "I have mentioned to His Majesty a few times this year, hoping that he can come here for a while."

Feng Qianjun said: "If you want to climb this mountain, I guess the bald man will be very tired."

Xie An smiled and said, "If you gain something, it's still worth it."

Hearing this when Xiang Shu came up, he naturally understood what Xie An meant. He wanted to give Sima Yao and the officials of the Jin court confidence. , there are only four battles. Julu, Guandu, Chibi, and Yiling. This is one of them."

In the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu broke the boat and defeated the Qin army.In the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao's 30 troops killed Yuan Shao's [-] troops.Needless to say about Chibi, the last battle of the Three Kingdoms era was when Lu Xun burned down the company camp of the Shu army.In the four battles in history, all of them won more with less, which can be called the pinnacle battle of the coaches. The four commanders Xiang Yu, Cao Cao, Zhou Yu, and Lu Xun also became famous for this battle, and their reputations last forever.

"I remember Xiang Yu, the overlord of Jiangdong, seems to be the ancestor of the Dharma Protector Martial God." Xie An laughed.

Xiang Shu didn't answer, he looked towards the Seven Stars Altar, and then followed the ruins of the Seven Stars Altar to look at the cliff in front of the mountain.Chen Xing was very surprised that Xiang Shu knew so much about the history of the Han people. He must have read it carefully when he was studying the art of war.

"Among the four battles," Xiang Shu replied, "there were three of them, and the home court was in Jiangdong. The soldiers who participated in the battle were all Jiangdong's children."

"That's right," Xie An nodded, and said, "It doesn't matter whether you are lucky or talented, Jiangdong has never surrendered since ancient times. Martial God, do you know that in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, apart from me, Xie Anshi, you are the only one who is under the leadership of His Majesty?" The one who said in front of you, 'It's not like you can't fight'?"

Hearing this, Chen Xing knew what kind of pressure Xie An was under, but he also knew that Fu Jian had an army of 50, while Jiangdong's disciples had less than [-]. The Jin court's thoughts on Xie An must be that he was crazy.Even if the miracle of the Battle of Chibi appeared again, it would be of no use to Fu Jian. After all, if he attacked south from Feishui, he would not be able to take advantage of the right time and place. How would he defeat the enemy?

Xiang Shu said: "But these few battles have left a lot of allusions for you Han people to talk about. Xie An, you might as well prepare well. Maybe you can leave a few books in the battle of Feishui in the future."

Xie An said with a smile: "Valkyrie, are you interested..."

"I'm not interested," Xiang Shu said, "I won't lead troops for you to fight my own clansmen, the most I can do is not to help each other."

Xie An was waiting for this sentence, and immediately said: "That's really acknowledgment, Guardian Martial God." Then he immediately raised his hand towards Chen Xing.

Chen Xing still doesn't know what Xiang Shu said casually.

Although Xiang Shu has Han blood, he grew up in Chilechuan, and he identifies himself as a Tiele. If the two clans go to war, how can the former Da Shanyu just sit idly by?

The reason for this promise is naturally because of Chen Xing.

"Have enough rest? Get up and have a look." Xiang Shu said.

Chen Xing got up, walked around in front of the Seven Stars Altar, and then stood in the center of the Seven Stars Altar, thinking that when Kong Ming borrowed the east wind, it had been 170 and three years, and the high cliffs were covered with moss, and there was no trace of the past.

The Altar of Seven Stars faces the Yangtze River and faces Honghu Lake across the river. The three mountains are like dragons, meandering behind them, the river is like a sword thousands of miles away, and Honghu Lake is like a huge magic circle.

"This is indeed one of the most blessed places in the world," Chen Xing said, "It is also the hinterland of the entire Shenzhou. If Zhang Liu uses the Dinghai Pearl to cast spells on the Seven Star Altar, maybe he can really draw the aura of heaven and earth."

The mountain wind blew, and Chen Xing was wearing a white robe flying around. I saw him closing his eyes, practicing the formula with one hand, and standing in the center of the Seven Star Altar, simulating the state of casting the spell. Now, it will be mighty and mighty, rushing to his hands.

Xiang Shu walked behind Chen Xing and observed him from this angle.

When Chen Xing opened his eyes, he didn't see Xiang Shu, so he turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?"

"So Zhang Liu did cast spells here at the beginning." Feng Qianjun said.

"Yes," Chen Xing said, "the possibility is very high."

Xiang Shu said, "Will there be any traces left during the casting process?"

"Even if there is, I can't find it," Chen Xing said, "It happened 300 years ago."

Xiang Shu said: "Then what about the traces of Kong Ming borrowing the east wind?"

Chen Xing: "It's been more than 170 years, why... wait."

Chen Xing suddenly had a doubt in his heart, but Xiang Shu asked the doubt out of his mouth.

"Zhang Liuxian used the Dinghai Pearl to take away all the aura of heaven and earth, leading to the death of all dharma," Xiang Shu said, "Since the magic in the world has no effect, how can Kong Ming borrow the east wind after 130 years?"

This is obviously unreasonable, Chen Xing suddenly became dazed, and said, "That's right, all dharmas have already died in the Three Kingdoms period."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but Xie An said, "Maybe borrowing the east wind is just a means? Zhuge Xiang is familiar with astronomy and geography, so he also knows weather changes. It makes sense to fool Sun Wu."

This was the only explanation, but Chen Xing always felt that it was unreasonable, and said, "Why didn't you talk about such an important issue earlier?"

Xiang Shu said: "I asked at that time, and you said 'it's not important'."

"Could Dinghai Pearl be in Chibi?" Feng Qianjun said, "What if Zhang Liu was ambushed by Shi Hai after taking away the aura of heaven and earth, and hid Dinghai Pearl nearby when he fled? If this thing stays in the mountain, It can still emit a little spiritual energy, so after more than 100 years, Kong Ming found this place, but he couldn't explain why in the whole world, only Nanping Mountain can cast spells. In short, he did this..."

Xie An was also stunned, so maybe there is an answer!

Chen Xing immediately said: "Wait a minute, let me try!"

Chen Xing raised his hand and sacrificed a simple spell. At dusk, the mountain wind passed through the forest, which made it difficult for him to concentrate several times, and he couldn't help trembling with excitement. If it was true, it might not take much effort , it is very close to the whereabouts of Dinghaizhu!

It was the first time for Gu Qing and Xie Daoyun to see an exorcist cast a spell, and they looked at it with surprise in their eyes.

Chen Xing raised one hand and lowered it, put it down and raised it again, tried his best to calm his breath and calm his emotions, and recalled the formula.

Xiang Shu suddenly said: "Are you sure that after all dharmas die, the only thing that can release spiritual energy is the Dinghai Pearl?"

"Don't talk to him!" Feng Qianjun and Xie An said at the same time.

"Let him cast a spell," Xie An said, "I'll ask you later."

Chen Xing tried a few times and said disappointedly: "No, I can't find any trace of spiritual energy flow."

Xiang Shu was very calm, and asked again: "Is it a problem with the formula?"

"I don't know," Chen Xing said distractedly, "After all, when I was learning spells, I already had no aura...Forget it, let me answer your question first."

Chen Xing thought for a while, and answered seriously: "All dharmas go to silence, but the heart lamp can still release mana. This statement is actually unreasonable."

Xiang Shu said "hmm", obviously he has been thinking about this question, why only the heart lamp can function after the aura of heaven and earth disappears.

"Besides the heart lamp, there is still some mana in the world," Chen Xing said, "it's just very, very little, such as Lu Ying."

When Xiang Shu, Chen Xing, and Xiao Shan all saw it, before dying, Lu Ying released a soft force, which revived the whole Karosha. How could it be said that all the power was lost?

Xiang Shu said, "Where does Lu Ying's power come from?"

At this time Xiao Shan replied: "Neidan."

"Yes," Chen Xing said, "the inner alchemy of the monster clan."

Before the death of all dharma, the monster clan increased its own cultivation by absorbing the aura of heaven and earth. After this part of mana was absorbed into the body, it was stored in its own inner alchemy, providing the power needed by the monster to survive.Chen Xing can roughly figure out what happened now. What Dinghaizhu collects is the vast free aura, and it cannot take away the aura from the inner alchemy of monsters in the world.

So after the aura is lost, the monsters can still last for a while with their inner alchemy.But the mana in the inner alchemy cannot be regenerated, just like the water in the bottle, once it is used up and it is not replenished, it will be gone if it is gone.

Lu Ying is an extremely powerful big monster, and he obtained the dragon power before Zhu Yin passed away. The aura contained in the inner alchemy has been used for hundreds of years, and there is still some monster power left before he dies.

"The heart lamp is also a bit like it," Chen Xing simply said frankly. "The burning of the heart lamp is the soul of a person. And the three souls and seven souls can slowly regenerate. Although they are very weak, they are like an endless source, providing a small amount of The inner alchemy of strength."

"Hmm." Xiang Shu leaned on the edge of the cliff, but seemed to be thinking about other things, and said, "So if I find the inner alchemy of a certain monster, I can replace the heart lamp and make Fudongrushan work."

"It's not impossible to drive with demonic power..." Chen Xing said, "It's like borrowing resentment. It's just the difference in energy. The essence of demonic power is also the aura of heaven and earth, but it has been hundreds of years since all dharmas have died down. , the monster power in the inner alchemy has been exhausted, even the phoenix can't hold it, so don't think about it."

Chen Xing naturally knew that Xiang Shu's purpose was to protect him, but he would rather Xiang Shu give it a go, and decided to find a time to talk to him about it.Thinking that Xiang Shu was very concerned about this, and wishing him well, he felt a little sad.

"There is no direction of mana," Chen Xing said, "at least I can't detect it now."

As the sky was getting dark, Feng Qianjun said, "Or go down the mountain? Come up tomorrow to investigate?"

Xie An had already ordered the county guard to prepare, and after going down the mountain, he took a boat to the government office to spend the night, saying: "Don't worry, Quan should come out to relax, these days are also very busy, let's take a rest."

Xie An's original intention was not only to investigate, but also to come here to reconsider the terrain near Chibi. After all, if Fu Jian sent his army southward, the south of the Yangtze River would be the front line, and the south of the Yangtze River would become the rear area. Retire, retain strength, and find a more suitable battlefield for the decisive battle.

"You guys go down first," Xiang Shu said, "take him to rest, I'll stay here for a while."

Chen Xing knew that Xiang Shu still didn't give up, so he said, "I'll accompany you."

The rest left along the mountain road, leaving Chen Xing and Xiang Shu alone.

The sky is full of burning clouds, thousands of hectares of sunlight fly by, fishing boats in Honghu Lake sing late, and ten thousand hectares of golden waves.Xiang Shu walked to the Seven Star Altar, looked down at the stones under his feet, and then looked up at the cliff.

Chen Xing murmured: "I don't know why, but I always feel that we seem to have come to the right place."

"Are you hiding something from me?" Xiang Shu asked instead of answering Chen Xing's words.

"Ah?" Chen Xing was startled, his thoughts changed, but he said, "No...no, why did you say that suddenly?"

With his back to Chen Xing, Xiang Shu stood in front of the cliff on the side of the Seven Star Altar, looked up at the jagged rocks in the last light of the setting sun, and said: "Whenever we talk about spells and ancient books, there is always a set, you Haven't thought about how to protect yourself?"

"Isn't there you?" Chen Xing smiled.

Xiang Shu frowned, and Chen Xing said, "Xiang Shu, you care about my life."

Xiang Shu didn't answer, but instead said: "Do you remember the day we first met in Xiangyang?"

Chen Xing thought it was a bit funny, neither of them answered the other directly, they went around in circles.

"Of course I remember." Chen Xing said, "After you woke up, you tied me up. You have been looking at that stone for a long time. Is it so beautiful?"

Xiang Shu stepped back suddenly and said, "Come here."

Chen Xing: "?"

Xiang Shu took off the epee from behind, Chen Xing became vigilant, is there an enemy?So he sacrificed the heart lamp, but Xiang Shu held his wrist, frowned and said, "I just let you take a look."

As he spoke, Xiang Shu stepped aside, holding the epee in both hands, slanted towards the stone, made a chopping motion, and said, "What does it look like?"

The sun gradually dimmed, and Chen Xing also noticed it. Xiang Shu came to a conclusion from his observation of the rock earlier, and said, "This is... this cliff was cut down. Who has such great strength?"

Xiang Shu walked to the edge of the cliff, looked down, and saw a crack at the bottom of the mountain stream, which was already full of plants and climbing vines. If the climbing vines and moss were removed, it might be left after a battle trace.
