My hexagram is perfect

Grandma Long looked at Yi Shu who was completely unable to recover, and her voice softened, "Back then, you did nothing wrong. Bai Yan was able to choose his own way of death and at whose hands he died. Compared with other people, it is one thing. Lucky thing."

"Lucky?" Yi Shu laughed suddenly, but it was uglier than crying. He clenched his fingers tightly, the veins on the back of his hand were bulging, and said hoarsely, "What kind of luck is this? What kind of luck is this?"

He raised his head and looked up, his Adam's apple moved up and down, "If I hadn't taken him to take the mystic master's exam together, if it hadn't been for me...he would be just an ordinary person, open a private restaurant, marry a wife and have children, ordinary Live peacefully for a lifetime..."

Yi Shu's voice choked up, "I'm the one who's sorry for him! It's me..."

Every moment, self-blame is deepening, and he has been regretting for the rest of his life. Every time he closes his eyes at midnight, he looks like a friend.

Grandma Long couldn't bear it, her eyes were red because of the memory.

She wiped the corners of her eyes, looked at Lu Yao and the others, and managed to maintain a steady voice, "No elder should have mentioned to you what happened more than [-] years ago." Maybe because she felt a little cold, she stretched out her hands to gather her coat.

Seeing Lu Yao and the others shaking their heads, Long Mutang said,

"In the beginning, it was a coincidence that a tomb was discovered in an ancient tomb. You all know that there are huge gaps in the inheritance of mystical arts. The inheritance of families like the Xue family and the Lu family is relatively well preserved. Okay, but it’s also not as good as one generation after another, gradually withering.”

She said with emotion, "It is said that thousands of years ago, mystic masters were extremely powerful. Hexagram masters could see through fate and even control the fate of a country. Astrologers could use astrology to communicate with heaven. Make people fly away."

Lu Yao remembered that he had seen some records in the letters left by the ancestors of the Lu family. Not to mention a thousand years ago, even four to five hundred years ago, the status of a mystic master was also transcendent.Correspondingly, the threshold for learning profound arts is also extremely high.

Grandma Long sighed, "But it's not anymore. Most of the engraved patterns have been lost, and few of the remaining ones can display the full power of the engraved patterns. Astrology has declined, formations have declined, Fengshui masters are limited, and divination masters are even more so." It has become a tool for fortune-telling and fortune-telling, and the entire mystical arts world has gradually declined. We have all discovered this trend, but every generation of us can do nothing about it. But after the discovery of the tomb, this is not the case.”

Xue Feiyi couldn't help asking, "What's in that tomb?"

"Well, yes." Grandma Long nodded, "I was also among the people who entered the tomb at that time. The identity of the owner of the tomb cannot be determined, but there are many mysterious arts that have been lost in the tomb. I was shocked at that time. I still remember it clearly."

"Then why is there no news at all?"

"Because the things inside can't be moved easily." Grandma Long said very carefully, "You should all know the equivalent exchange if you study mystic arts?"

Seeing that Lu Yao and Xue Feiyi nodded, she continued, "The things in the tomb are not actually sorcery, but the exchange of equivalent values ​​to the extreme. It's like the ancient people who sacrificed to the gods needed to kill living people. The profound art in the tomb also requires a huge price, and human life is light. Correspondingly, the power is indeed extremely powerful."

Lu Yao understood that while the power is powerful, the price is also extremely high, so after the present world, it will be a disaster.

Sure enough, "So after discussions and disputes, we didn't disclose this matter. After destroying part of it, we closed the tomb again. At that time, some people also suggested that some less cruel ones could be taken out. After all, the mysterious world is in decline. So far, it is really needed, and maybe it can reverse the decline.”

"Didn't take it out?" Xue Feiyi also became nervous.

"Of course not. At that time, a senior I respected very much said something. He said, people are very scary. Never underestimate the greed of human beings."

Granny Long took a sip of tea from the teacup and moistened her throat, "I think about it, after that, no one mentioned it anymore, and it became a secret. But within two years, something happened."

There was sadness in her eyes, as if the previous scenes were still vivid in her memory.

"In the beginning, a senior in his 70s killed all six of his descendants and used them in a blood sacrifice to prolong his life. However, he suffered the backlash of mystic arts, and after losing his sanity, he injured many people. Later, Several similar things happened one after another. As a result, those who entered the tomb together began to suspect that someone in the middle had betrayed and told about the existence of the tomb, and the contents of the tomb had already flowed out.”

Subconsciously holding the astrolabe, Xue Feiyi said hesitantly, "Then it won't...do you suspect each other?"

"Yes, definitely," she said with a sad expression, "Because of mutual suspicion and distrust, the two years of fighting in the Mysterious Committee were extremely cruel. A little half of my previous generation died in the fighting, which was extremely... miserable The rest of the seniors are also disheartened and disappeared."

As she said that, she looked at Lu Yao, "That's why I know that the person behind it must be hidden in the Xuan Committee, but I dare not investigate it with great fanfare. It's not inaction, but this matter, it's too much. Many people have scars, and I am too afraid of repeating the same mistakes."

Lu Yao nodded and understood the intention, "Then what happened later?"

"The internal struggle is cruel, and the outside is also chaotic. Many people are addicted to magic and lose their minds. They will do anything for power. Later, the older ones, like Lu Yao, your grandparents, Xiao Zhuang's grandfather, and the younger ones like Zhong Huainan, Yi Shu and Bai Yan both realized that if this continues, our profound arts will really be cut off, so they started to investigate and stop it."

Having said that, she paused for a while, concealing the process, and calming down her emotions.

"The process is destined to be extremely difficult. Anyway, in the end, few survived. The things in the tomb were also destroyed directly. It has been calm for so many years. I thought that what happened more than [-] years ago had already been marked. Ended the full stop. I just thought, guarding the stall that senior bought with his life, and when I die, I will be worthy of my heart. But I didn't expect that the calm is only superficial."

Yi Shu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Xiao Lu."

Lu Yao quickly responded, "Senior Yi?"

"Can you tell me, Bai Yan..." It was very difficult just to mention this name, he took a slow breath, "What's going on?"

The mood also became heavy, Lu Yao nodded, "The first time I saw...he was after dinner at your place and left. Xuan Ge went to pick up the car. Taking advantage of the time difference, he came to me and said a few words. It should be to test my reaction. I didn't know he was a fake at the time, but I noticed a very small flaw."

He went on to recall, "The second time, after Xuan Ge went out, he might be sure that I didn't see through the disguise, so he wanted to come to find me at home. But when he went downstairs, he received a call, maybe it was because Xuan Ge would come back soon." The news of going home, just left."

Grandma Long listened carefully, "These two times, have you found out that he is a fake?"

"No, he is very similar to Xuan Ge, including expressions and small movements, and I didn't think in this direction."

The next thing to say will involve the identity of Xuan Ge Qi Ling, Lu Yao gestured to Grandma Long.

Long Mutang nodded, "It's okay, just tell me, Yi Shu has already made an oath."

The oath made by the mystic master is very binding, so Lu Yao is relieved.

"The third time was today. He came to pick me up in the disguise of Xuan Ge. I tricked him. The main doubts are, first, he replaced Xuan Ge and entered into a blood contract with me. At the same time, he has several years of memory."

Now that Lu Yao analyzed it, he felt that it should be because of the spiritual marrow, which was also considered a part of Xuan Ge by the blood contract.Otherwise, the blood contract could not be changed so easily.

"Second, his purpose is to obliterate Xuan Ge's consciousness and gain my trust. Third, he said Yuanshui is on me, Yuanshui should also be one of his goals." He hesitated, "I I feel that the person behind may want to control something through the blood contract between Gua Pan and me, but I haven't figured out the key to it."

"Well, if you didn't become suspicious from the beginning," Grandma Long frowned deeply, and said in a heavy tone, "then you may judge the authenticity by relying on the blood contract and memory, thus obliterating the real Xuange." .”

"Yes." Thinking of this possibility, Lu Yao still panicked.

Sensing his mood, Xuan Ge reached out and shook Lu Yao's hand.

Tapping the table with her fingers lightly, she made a low "dong" sound. Granny Long's expression was serious, "From this matter, the person behind is very proficient in puppet art, but the puppet art has been lost for hundreds of years. He can get it. It is likely to be related to the tomb. And that person's goal is also very clear, in you, the spirit of the Lihuo floating surface, and Yuanshui."

Xue Feiyi interjected, "But why did the target only target Xiao Lu Yao and Xuan Ge, but not me and Qing He?"

"I guess, maybe it's a matter of attributes. The five elements of the hexagram plate belong to fire, and the astrolabe belongs to wood." After speaking, Grandma Long's heart sank.If it is really related to the tomb, then they are in the light, and that person is in the dark, so it is impossible to be sure how much magic is still in the other party's hands.

After listening to Lu Yao's description, Yi Shu said, "I remember clearly that the people who died because of sorcery... were dealt with by the Xuan Committee, and I personally sent Bai Yan there."

His voice was very soft, his eyes fell on the air, and he didn't know where to go, "Long Mutang, tell me, is it true that people who have been corrupted by the death energy of magic have become the best puppet refining materials?"

"Yeah." Long Mutang's eyes were a little red, his voice trembled, and countless familiar faces appeared in front of his eyes, "If I'm not mistaken, many of them must be like Bai Yan, who were made into puppets, driven, and finally Fragmented, discarded."

Having said that, the room became quiet again.

Lu Yao didn't speak, although he didn't know those who had passed away, including the grandparents he hadn't met.But just imagining that one day, his friends around him are refined into puppets, and that kind of anger and hatred can be empathized.

After Long Mutang and Yi Shu's emotions gradually recovered, Lu Yao said, "Grandma Long, I have a guess."

"You say it."

"This time, Xue Feiyi and I were trapped in the formation at Senior Yi's place. I think the people behind it want us to focus on Senior Yi. Because if it's not...Senior White's Appear, then Senior Yi is the biggest suspect."

Xue Feiyi also nodded, "The first person I suspected was Senior Yi." He glanced at Bai Yan who was made into a puppet, and couldn't help but said, "But the puppet pretending to be Xuan Ge happened to be Senior Bai. I think, if it wasn't for the person behind it, I didn't know that Senior Yi and Senior White were very familiar. Or they knew about this relationship, but in the eyes of that person, all puppets are just puppets, there is no difference, and they don't care at all."

And he prefers the latter.

Xue Feiyi glanced at Lu Yao, both of them knew clearly that if it was really the latter, then the person behind him would be an extremely terrifying opponent, and even the source of the turmoil 20 years ago had changed. It's confusing.
