Plum Blossoms

Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou sat and talked for a while, then glanced at the woman whose balcony was facing them, leaned up to Huamanlou and asked in a low voice: "Miss Wang, what's wrong? Why is she looking so lost."

Hua Manlou said helplessly: "Is it serious? I don't know anything. It was already like this yesterday, so I don't have much energy to talk." He thought for a while and asked Lu Xiaofeng: "Brother Lu, do you know Mr. Jingjie, a master of the Eastern Jin Dynasty? He has an article called "Peach Blossom Spring", which is very profound."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded, but he didn't know what he meant: "Of course I know."

Hua Manlou said: "I guess the King's Canyon that Miss Wang wants to go to may be the same as the Peach Blossom Land described by Mr. Jingjie. It is a place of 'I don't know the Han, regardless of the Wei and Jin'."

Lu Xiaofeng was also very surprised when he heard what happened yesterday.

He said: "I'm sure that her martial arts moves are not quite the same as ours. Although they are not ice palms, they are indeed like ice and snow, which is very strange." He asked Hua Manlou in a low voice, "You know that she holds What is that golden stick in the house for? I look a bit like a Zen staff, but she is not a monk or nun."

"What gold stick?" Hua Manlou was puzzled, "I don't know."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "I only saw her once yesterday, when she left for a while, she lost her hand. I observed that posture, it seems to be useful."

Hua Manlou nodded: "The Canyon of Kings has its own unique features."

Lu Xiaofeng stroked his chin thoughtfully, and said, "If that's the case, what if Dazhi Datong can't explain why?"

Huamanlou was also speechless.After a long time, he sighed: "I have to take one step at a time."

Lu Xiaofeng actually wanted to ask Wang Zhaojun what kind of paradise-like Canyon of Kings is like, and what is the cultural environment there.It's just that Wang Zhaojun has always been taciturn these few days, and he doesn't know what he is thinking when he is alone, which makes it hard for him to speak.Later, she did talk to Hua Manlou, but she just asked Hua Manlou to help find some books, regardless of the content.

Originally they planned to leave, but in this situation, they can only temporarily press it and not mention it.

Four more days have now passed.

Lu Xiaofeng idly teased Huamanlou, asking him to play a tune.Hua Manlou refused to take the bait when he heard the banter between his words, always feeling that he was up to something.

A gust of wind blew in, and the flowers on the balcony were shaken by the wind. A white petal flew into the room and fell on Huamanlou's black hair, but he himself didn't notice it.

Lu Xiaofeng laughed loudly.

Just as he was about to speak, there was the sound of opening the door, followed by the sound of extremely light footsteps.Lu Xiaofeng turned around and saw Wang Zhaojun walking with a book in his arms.His eyes were sharp, and he saw the words on the cover of the book at a glance - Li Taibai's poetry collection.

Wang Zhaojun asked eagerly, "Huamanlou, is this "Li Taibai Poetry Collection" written by Li Bai? Where is he?"

Hua Manlou was both surprised and confused.He was surprised by Wang Zhaojun's tone that seemed to know Li Taibai, but he was also puzzled by her unimaginable question.He said: "Shixian Taibai was a romantic figure in the Tang Dynasty. It has been nearly a thousand years ago. His tomb is in the Qingshan of Dangtu in Southern Zhili."

"tomb?"

Seeing her shocked face, Lu Xiaofeng asked curiously: "Miss Wang also knows Li Taibai? But you don't know Concubine Ming, how strange."

Wang Zhaojun stroked the collection of poems in his hand, hesitated for a long time, and then said: "I know a person, and his name is Li Bai."

"Is it in the Canyon of Kings?" Hua Manlou asked.

Lu Xiaofeng also interjected, "Your Canyon of Kings is really interesting."

But any common people who know some things will try their best to avoid choosing such an eye-catching name for their children.But according to what Hua Manlou said, the people in the Canyon of Kings don't understand foreign affairs, so it shouldn't be said that they deliberately do so.If there is only Wang Zhaojun alone, it would be a coincidence, but there is another Li Bai, which makes it interesting.

He thought this way, and then joked casually: "Girl, your name is Zhaojun. Could it be that there are three beauties in the Canyon of Kings, Xizi Diaochan and Yang Taizhen?"

When Wang Zhaojun heard this, he looked at him in surprise: "Who is Xizi Yang Taizhen, I don't know. But Diao Chan, there is a real person."

Lu Xiaofeng didn't expect that his casual words could elicit such information, he was dumbfounded: "Ah...then there will be Lu Bu, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, right?"

Wang Zhaojun stared at him deeply, then nodded and said, "Yes."

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't believe it, but Huamanlou had been thinking about it since just now.

Looking down at the collection of poems in his hand, Wang Zhaojun said again: "I thought it had the same name, but in this collection of poems there are poems that say 'kill a person in ten steps, never stay a thousand miles', and 'will drink, don't stop drinking' And 'I hope I won't wake up after being drunk'. These poems are often recited by Li Bai in the Canyon of Kings."

Lu Xiaofeng laughed dryly: "Haha, it seems that Li Bai from the Canyon of Kings is also a poet."

Wang Zhaojun replied seriously: "His poems are as famous and as powerful as his sword. Although I live in Beiyi, I have heard of his deeds. In the Canyon of Kings, everyone calls him Qinglian Sword Immortal."

Lu Xiaofeng hugged his head and wailed: "This is all a mess."

"Miss Wang." Hua Manlou said, "We don't know Li Bai from the Canyon of Kings. We know the poet Li Bai, whose name is Taibai, and whose name is Qinglian Layman. The world calls him a Poet Immortal. Because he often has poetry and sword skills. , and some people call him Sword Immortal, but the title of Sword Immortal is not widely spread, and it is far less famous than Poet Immortal."

Speaking of this, the three of them all noticed the weirdness, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

After a long while, Hua Manlou still said: "Miss Wang, is it convenient for you to talk about more people?"

Wang Zhaojun agreed.

Hua Manlou asked Lu Xiaofeng to get the pen and paper, and while he was grinding the ink, Hua Manlou explained: "Young lady Wang can say as much as you want, let's see together, how many coincidences there are."

She just said the first name, Lu Xiaofeng shook his hand, the ink dripped from the tip of the pen, blurring on the paper.

"Genghis Khan."

Lu Xiaofeng stared at her with eyes that could almost be called horror.

Wang Zhaojun was very puzzled.She has been sleeping in the sea of ​​​​winter, and since she was awakened by the Beiyi people, the person she is most familiar with is Genghis Khan, so it is natural to start with him.

Hua Manlou coughed twice and said, "Miss Wang, please continue."

She continued: "Sun Shangxiang, Daoist Taiyi, Xiahoudun, Baili Xuance..."

Lu Xiaofeng had a strange expression on his face, but he still wrote down the names she said one by one, sometimes stopping to ask her which word it was.Wang Zhaojun noticed that he did not write Genghis Khan's name.

For a long time, she had memorized everyone's names.There is no permanent enemy in the Canyon of Kings. Maybe the teammates from last time will become enemies this time.Wang Zhaojun was not interested in the life stories of other heroes and did not have a deep understanding of them.Sometimes there will be new faces in the Canyon of Kings, and then they will become old teammates or enemies in game after game.

More than eighty names were written down, the list was extremely long, Lu Xiaofeng wrote a total of four pages.When Wang Zhaojun nodded and said that was all, he threw down his pen hastily.

Lu Xiaofeng held a few pieces of paper and read them again and again, and glanced at Wang Zhaojun from time to time, hesitant to speak.

Hua Manlou tilted his head slightly, as if he was recalling the names he had just heard.He pondered, and said: "Many names are familiar, but some of them are unheard of, such as Baili Shouyue, Pei Qinhu Luna and others mentioned by the girl." And people from Dongying? I heard Miss Wang say the names of a few people from Dongying."

Wang Zhaojun said: "People from Dongying?"

Hua Manlou nodded: "Miyamoto Musashi, Mai Shiranui."

"You said they..." Wang Zhaojun shook his head, "I don't know much about their details, but their tone of voice is indeed very strange, and some words are completely incomprehensible."

Lu Xiaofeng was still looking at the list stupidly.After they finished speaking, he complained: "You just said that you didn't know Mrs. Yang!"

Wang Zhaojun: "I didn't know."

Lu Xiaofeng pointed to a name on the list: "Then who is this? Isn't this Yang Taizhen?"

Wang Zhaojun looked down and saw the word "Yang Yuhuan", and said: "She is Yang Yuhuan, not Yang Taizhen."

Lu Xiaofeng almost choked to death on her.

Everyone knows that the noble concubine Yang Yuhuan used to be called Taizhen. In order to show respect for her ancestors, few people would call her by her name directly, and most of them used words or titles.Compared with Yang Yuhuan, Yang Guifei or Yang Taizhen are more commonly called.

But Wang Zhaojun said: "She only has one name, and it is Yang Yuhuan." But after hearing Lu Xiaofeng's words, she was finally not so firm, and said after hesitation: "However, occasionally there are indeed summoners who call her Concubine."

Lu Xiaofeng was unable to ask what the summoner was anymore.

Wang Zhaojun was also very confused.

She couldn't figure out what the situation was now—a completely different living environment, completely unfamiliar characters and wild monsters, but the words and language were the same, so there was no obstacle to communication.There is no battle, no teammates, her skills can be used, she can get gold coins, and she can buy equipment, but other than her, everyone else's attack patterns are very strange.It was originally guessed that it might be a new map, but now new discoveries have broken this guess.

Same name, similar life trajectory.It seems that there is a thread in the dark that connects the heroes of the King's Continent and the "ancestors" that Huamanlou and the others are familiar with, but they are separated by a long distance.

Wang Zhaojun returned to his room on the pretext that he wanted to think alone, leaving only Hua Manlou and Lu Xiaofeng in place.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but Lu Xiaofeng always feels that the back of her leaving is extremely lonely.When he couldn't see anyone, he looked at Huamanlou and asked with a complicated expression, "Do you think this is believable?"

Hua Manlou was silent for a long time, and said, "Miss Wang is not a liar."

"How long have you known her?" Lu Xiaofeng sat down and sighed, "Although I don't want to speculate on her maliciously, this is too bizarre, right?"

"Nuwa, Houyi, Daji, Donghuang Taiyi, Mozi, Sun Bin, Zhuang Zhou, Guiguzi, and Yang Jian, Nezha, Bull Demon King, and Monkey King who are only found in the storybook." Every time Lu Xiaofeng said a name, it seemed like Even more collapsed, "Not to mention the first emperor Wu Zetian and his ilk. Do you want me to believe that they are alive and well in the Laoshizi King Canyon?"

Hua Manlou laughed, "Lao Shizi? Where did you learn this stupid language?"

"...Let's not talk about that." Lu Xiaofeng thought and thought, and suddenly exclaimed excitedly: "I know! This Canyon of Kings is not isolated from the world, on the contrary, the people living in this valley worship the ancients extremely, so they have followed suit The predecessors named the descendants to show their admiration."

There is some truth to this guess, but...

Hua Manlou reminded him: "Miss Wang doesn't know anything about the ancients we are talking about. She doesn't even know that Ming Concubine is Zhaojun, and Yang Taizhen is the noble concubine Yang Yuhuan."

So Lu Xiaofeng became discouraged again.
