My hexagram is perfect
Chapter 69 Hexagram 69
"So I'm wondering if it's the person behind him who is about to take some other actions, and I'm a little anxious. Or you, Grandma Long, are about to find him, and he keeps turning our attention to him in order to protect himself. Introduced by Senior Yi."
Suppressing the complex emotions in his heart, Lu Yao tried his best to analyze calmly,
"From my personal point of view, the puppet technique I first came into contact with, and the fish drying formation in the later exams, etc., are all very ancient and lost engravings or formations, and their power is also very powerful. I think it is extremely powerful. Maybe, that person brought them out of the tomb."
Knowing what Lu Yao meant, Xue Feiyi nodded at the side, and echoed, "The things that Zhao Shu has handled are not something that can be produced by the current Xuanshu world. I have the same opinion as Xiao Lu Yao, and I also I feel that the person behind must have brought a lot of things out of the tomb."
As he spoke, he glanced at the expressions of Long Mutang and Yi Shu, and said carefully, "That person must have also entered the tomb back then."
He knew that the mutual suspicion and murder back then were a scar in the hearts of Grandma Long and the others, and they had been subconsciously avoiding them all the time.But now, the person behind the scenes has repeatedly attacked, Xue Feiyi gritted his teeth, "Grandma, no matter what, we must find out the person. If we don't find out, we will really repeat the mistakes of 20 years ago. "
Long Mutang looked at Lu Yao and Xue Feiyi who were looking at him, his eyes softened, and he raised his spirits, "I'll go back and think about it, and make it clear, it's already late today, I'll call Huainan and the others tomorrow, everyone Let's meet and discuss together."
Yi Shu, who was silent for a long time, raised his head, "I'll go tomorrow too." Seeing Long Mutang looking over, he twitched his lips, "I don't want to be a fool who has been kept in the dark for so many years."
"Okay." Long Mutang sighed, and gave an address, "The banyan garden has collapsed before, and I don't know how long it will take to rebuild it. See you in the plum garden tomorrow afternoon."
As soon as he stepped out of the door and entered the yard, Xue Feiyi shivered from the cold outside, habitually stuffed the astrolabe into his clothes quickly, and then asked Lu Yao, "Shall I see you?"
Finding that Xuan Ge was standing in the wind and protecting Lu Yao from the wind, he silently hugged himself tightly.
"No need," Lu Yao shook his head, "Xuan Ge came here on a bicycle." He also felt cold, and put his hand directly into Xuan Ge's palm.
"Alright then." Saying that, Xue Feiyi stretched out his hand and pushed open the door. As soon as he walked down the steps, he saw a man in a black coat approaching.
Xue Feiyi recognized it immediately, "President?"
Ji Dongge, who was approaching, saw who it was, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Are you coming to eat too?" He was dressed thickly, and a thick scarf was wrapped around his neck three times, but he was tall and not Does not look bulky.
"Well," Xue Feiyi thought for a while, but still said, "Senior Yi is not feeling well today, we didn't get any food after we came here, and we plan to come back another day."
Ji Dongge understood, "I was just passing by nearby and was greedy. In this case, I won't go in and come back in two days." He smiled, the fine lines around his eyes were not obvious, and he looked very young , "You also go back earlier, pay attention to safety."
Lu Yao was watching the two talking, and he found that Ji Dongge was indeed as Xue Feiyi said. He was very afraid of the cold, kept his hands in his pockets, and wore a hat on his head. covered up.Apart from the face, nothing was exposed of the whole person, which was tightly packed.
When Ji Dongge turned and walked out, Lu Yao subconsciously took a look at the other person's walking posture, and did not find anything weird, so he looked away.
Sitting on the scooter, Xuan Ge had his long legs propped on the ground, and was wearing leather gloves with his head down.Lu Yao leaned his head on the opponent's shoulder, "I remember the time when I counted the spiritual marrow, the hexagram showed that there was a turning point."
"Ah."
Recalling the situation at that time, Lu Yao said, "Then that day, I met the fake Xuan Ge, so the hexagram actually came true."
Xuan Ge turned around and helped him put on the black helmet. Lu Yao was still talking, "But I always feel that something is not right, as if something has been overlooked." urn's.
Touching Lu Yao's neck, Xuan Ge carefully buttoned all the top buttons for him, helping him to recall together, "You were in the store that day, when you came over when the time came, first you met Yu Changsheng and Zhong Huainan , and then saw Long Mutang and Xue Feiyi, followed by Yi Shu, Ji Dongge, and finally the puppet."
After recalling it several times, but found nothing wrong, Lu Yao hugged Xuan Ge's waist, remembered what the other party said, and paid attention to it.
Back home, Lu Yao felt that he was about to freeze, so he got into the bathroom after finding his pajamas.After taking off his shirt, he suddenly remembered, opened the door again, grabbed the door frame and called Xuan Ge, "You said earlier that you would make egg fried rice for me."
Seeing Xuan Ge looking over, he also added the specific scene, "That is, when you rode over and saw me with the fake Xuan Ge, you were so angry that you squeezed out the cigarette, and then asked me to go to your place, you said This sentence."
After hearing Lu Yao finished speaking, Xuan Ge laughed, "Little cat, you remember this sentence most clearly." After saying that, he walked over in two steps and stretched out his hand to pinch Lu Yao's face.
"Don't pinch your face—it's deformed!" The corner of his mouth leaked, Lu Yao struggled to finish speaking, seeing Xuan Ge still didn't let go, he simply climbed onto the other's arm with both hands, and looked over with a pair of moist almond eyes, "Then help me Take a shower, okay?"
As expected, the movements of his hands stopped, Xuan Ge laughed in a low voice, unbuttoned the button with one hand, took off his clothes, and hugged Lu Yao, "Okay, don't pinch your face, help you take a bath."
***
The meeting time set by Grandma Long is at five o'clock in the afternoon, and Lu Yao was a little restless in the store in the morning.
He was helping Xuan Ge peel potatoes in the kitchen, and he almost peeled his hands several times.The knife in his hand was taken away by Xuan Ge, and it took a few seconds for Lu Yao to come back to his senses, "Are there enough potatoes?"
"Well, that's enough." Xuan Ge gave him a few cloves of garlic from the side, "Peel this."
"okay."
Seeing that Lu Yao received the garlic in his hand, he started to peel the garlic in a daze again, so stupidly, Xuan Ge turned around, took a knife and started peeling the potatoes—at least he would not be scratched by the knife when peeling the garlic, and the risk factor was relatively low .
"Xuan Ge."
"Ok?"
Lu Yao was a little nervous, and he didn't know where his thoughts diverged, "Last time I was panicked. After I went to the banyan garden, the banyan garden collapsed. This time I was also a little flustered. Will I go to the plum garden? The garden also collapsed?"
"Then I can print a stack of business cards for you," Xuan Ge teased him, "The leader of the violent demolition team, Lu Xiaomao."
"Captain? Do I have a squad?"
"Of course." Xuan Ge's hand holding the knife is very beautiful, with slender knuckles, like a work of art. He said with a smile in his voice, "My Lu team is demolishing the house. Of course I have to pass things by the side."
As he said that, his gaze fell behind Lu Yao, "But Captain Lu, someone is looking for you at the door."
When Lu Yao turned his head, he saw Yu Changsheng and Zhong Huainan opening the door and coming in, and hurried out of the kitchen with garlic.
"Senior Zhong." Lu Yao went over to say hello, "Changsheng, long time no see."
Yu Changsheng nodded, "Well, long time no see."
Zhong Huainan sat down, not smiling like before, and not in a good spirit, "Long Mutang called me in the morning and told me everything."
He rubbed the smooth surface of the wooden sword with his hand, and was absent-minded for a few seconds, "She couldn't explain clearly about the puppet, I was anxious, and I wanted to ask you about the details before I could go to the Plum Garden. "
There were no customers in the store, Lu Yao nodded, sat opposite Zhong Huainan, explained the situation in detail, and described the appearance of the puppet carefully.
"I wasn't sure if it was puppetry at the time, but I remembered that you once said that if a puppet is successfully refined, there will be a red mark on the back of the neck."
Zhong Huainan nodded, "That's true, but Bai Yan is a little different from the Lu family's puppet art."
"Different?"
"Well, it's almost the difference between mass-produced and specially-made. Bai Yan's situation is more like a puppet made by the people behind it at will. He can use it when needed, and he can't control the puppet's words and deeds all the time.
According to what you said, the consciousness that the puppet belongs to Bai Yan has been completely wiped out. He should be fused with a piece of Xuan Ge's spiritual essence, so in the cognition of the puppet, he himself is Xuan Ge, but his words and deeds memory Whether it was influenced or misled is also uncertain. "
Thinking of Fake Xuange's action of subconsciously protecting him, Lu Yao nodded slightly.
"Later, it was obvious that the people behind it discovered that the puppet had been exposed, so they directly withdrew that section of spiritual essence. Without the support of strength, the puppet naturally collapsed."
Lu Yao nodded, expressing his understanding, and then Zhong Huainan sighed, "If puppets can only be mass-produced, and can't control the puppet's words and deeds all the time, then I'm a little bit relieved, the person behind is not so powerful Can't beat it."
In the afternoon, it began to rain outside.Lu Yao and Xuan Ge got into Yu Changsheng's car and went to the Plum Garden together.
Meiyuan is very remote, and it took more than an hour to drive there.Lu Yao looked at the scenery along the road, and asked Xuan Ge in a low voice, "Is this the place where you raced?"
At that time, he was driven by Cheng Xiao to watch the racing cars on the abandoned road on the mountain, which is the road he took.
Xuan Ge nodded and pointed in the direction, "That mountain is there, there should be a river around it."
It was only after four o'clock, and the sky had already darkened. When we got out of the car, we could only faintly see the outline of the mountain.A few people walked in with umbrellas, because the building was old, there were many potholes on the ground, and a lot of water accumulated.Lu Yao paid attention to his feet, wrapped his coat tightly, took a breath, and could faintly smell the fragrance of plum blossoms in the damp and cold water vapor.
"Wait for me!"
A voice came from behind, Lu Yao turned around, and saw Xue Feiyi wearing a white down jacket, holding a sky blue umbrella, running towards them like the wind.
And in order to avoid puddles on the ground, his movements can be described as bouncing and jumping.However, the astrolabe was not affected at all, and it was suspended steadily on his shoulders.
Stopping to take a few breaths, Xue Feiyi wiped the mist from her hair, "Fuck, why is this plum garden even more dilapidated than the banyan garden? I once again felt how short of funds the Xuan Committee really is. It's late at night Don’t you need a set for ghost movies?”
After speaking, he looked at Xuan Ge and Lu Yao, and finally chose to stand beside Yu Changsheng.
Zhong Huainan explained, "These buildings are indeed old. They are all houses left by my predecessors. Maybe everyone is nostalgic for the old days and has been reluctant to abandon them. However, some people mentioned a few years ago that they should renovate houses all over the country. , but construction has not started yet, and I don’t know which link has a problem.”
The building in Meiyuan is also a small building, only two stories high.Entering the room from the gate, Grandma Long and Yi Shu had already arrived, as well as Grandpa Wu and Wu Xian, and Mr. Song who was taking Lu Yao to take the Jiamu level exam was sitting next to them, all of whom were acquaintances.
Zhong Huainan sat on the chair, "Not all the people?"
"There are still a few who can't make it through." After speaking, Grandma Long poured a cup of hot tea for everyone, "The temperature has dropped again today, drink some hot tea to keep you warm."
While drinking tea, Wu Xian, who was sitting opposite Lu Yao, touched his bald head and waved slightly to greet Lu Yao.
Lu Yao hadn't seen Wu Xian since he left the venue of the music festival last time. Seeing that the other party's bald head was still shiny, he couldn't help but greet him quietly.
Grandma Long put down the teacup in her hand, looked at the people present, "Everyone already knows the matter," she looked at Lu Yao with a serious expression, "Tell me your guess in detail first."
Lu Yao nodded, "I think the purpose of the puppet this time is to let me obliterate the consciousness of Lihuo Floating Disc Spirit, and obviously, only I, as a blood pact person, can do this."
He didn't really like to call Xuan Ge the spirit of the weapon, he felt a little disgusted, subconsciously put his hand under the table, secretly hooked Xuan Ge's finger, and shook it twice, but Xuan Ge directly grabbed it with his backhand.
With a very serious expression, Lu Yao organized his words again, "In addition, the person behind once instructed Lu Mingde to turn me into a puppet, I guess, maybe that person wants to control the Lihuo Floating Disk by controlling me.
But if you simply want to achieve the goal of controlling the hexagram disk, then you don't need to spend a lot of effort to erase Qi Ling's consciousness.That's why I guessed whether that person wanted to use me and Qi Ling as a medium to control another thing. "
After finishing speaking, Lu Yao smiled a little embarrassedly, "What I said was a bit convoluted, I don't know if I expressed it clearly."
"It's very clear," Grandma Long nodded, "Any other ideas?"
After hesitating for a while, Lu Yao still didn't mention Yuanshui. He believed in Grandma Long, but he was not sure that everyone present was completely credible. Besides, he was not sure whether he really had Yuanshui on him now.
Seeing Lu Yao finished speaking, Grandma Long took over the conversation, "I went back last night and took care of it. At that time, we entered the tomb together, and there were a total of 21 people. Excluding the nine who had passed away, I don't know who they are after leaving the Xuan Committee." Five people are missing, but three of these five people have been confirmed to have passed away. As for those who are still alive, there are still nine left, and seven remain in the Xuan Committee."
She looked at the people present, "I, Huainan, Wu Zhi, Song Que, accounted for four. And Xiao Zhuang's grandfather, Dong Tingxiu, Fang Yuan."
There are only a few people left in those days.
After listening to this, Lu Yao was a little puzzled, "Did the president not go?"
Zhong Huainan replied, "Ji Dongge became the chairman after the turmoil ended. He was still young at that time, so he didn't go with him."
As he spoke, he looked at Long Mutang, "Back then in the tomb, we all swore an oath not to reveal the matter in order to maintain the stability of the mysterious art world."
Thinking of what happened afterwards, Zhong Huainan hugged the wooden sword in his arms, and the memories about A Luo in his mind couldn't be suppressed.
Grandpa Wu also nodded, "So could it be that it wasn't one of us who revealed this matter, but someone else went into the tomb later?"
"When we left, we used formations to seal the tomb, but we can't rule out the possibility that Lao Wu said." Grandma Long pinched her brows, "Everyone carefully recalled the memory, is there anything strange about that year... "
It was very windy outside, the windows were not closed properly, and they made some annoying noises after being blown open by the wind.Seeing Grandma Long and the others discussing, Lu Yao got up and went to the window.
Just as he stretched out his hand to pull the old-fashioned window over, something flashed in Lu Yao's peripheral vision.
He turned his head, it was rainy and desolate outside, there was a clump of bushes in the corner, the light was very dim, and the light from the street lamp could not shine through.Lu Yao thought he had read it wrong, and was about to withdraw his hand, when he suddenly felt the tortoise shell on his wrist faintly hot.
--very familiar.
Lu Yao hesitated for two seconds and turned his head, just in time to meet Xuan Ge's focused gaze, he made a gesture, and after a while, Xuan Ge came over, "What's wrong?"
Pointing out the window, Lu Yao whispered, "I seemed to see something flashing past just now, but it disappeared when I looked again, and I don't know if it's my eyesight." Then, he raised his wrist, "But the tortoise shell is getting hot. "
Xuan Ge frowned, "Tell them."
After listening to what Lu Yao said, without doubting the authenticity, Wu Zhi stood up, "Wu Xian, go out and have a look with me." After saying that, he took an umbrella and went out, Lu Yao and Xuan Ge followed.
The rain had subsided, but it was still very cold. The four of them walked around to the window sill, Wu Zhi opened the messy bushes, and the flashlight shined on them.
"There is indeed something." He asked Lu Yao and Wu Xian to hold the flashlight, and when the light was focused on that point, he bent down and stretched out his hand.
After probing for a while, his hand suddenly touched a round stone pier. The surface was uneven, full of carvings, and there was no moss or other things covering it.
Wu Zhi squatted down, studied for a while, and made a judgment, "This should be a formation eye." I don't know what method he used, Wu Zhi made two handprints, and there were nine layers of protective air above the formation eye. You can see it with the naked eye.
Grandma Long stood inside the window, "Are you sure it's the eye?"
"Sure," Wu Zhi looked up at Long Mutang, "After the Banyan Garden collapsed, it was moved to the Plum Garden and cleaned up." But now that there is an intact formation eye, the formation must not have been destroyed.
Then, either after cleaning up, someone re-arranged it.Or the cleaning is only a superficial effort.
Zhong Huainan looked at Shidun and asked, "Can you tell what magic circle it is?"
"Concealment circle, blinding method, the function is to make people ignore this thing subconsciously, and then hide things that they hope will not be discovered."
After finishing speaking, he patted the engraving on the surface of the stone with his palm, asking for advice, "Is it open? I don't know what's underneath."
Zhong Huainan and Yi Shu answered quickly, "Yes."
Grandma Long pondered, but still gave the same answer, "Open it, and see what is so carefully hidden."
Wu Zhi nodded, didn't speak any more, and took out a copper awl from his bag, the sharp point of the awl was frighteningly cold.He observed the stone pier for a few seconds, then stabbed it down with a copper awl, only to hear several crackling sounds, the surface of the stone pier suddenly cracked, and then turned into powder at an extremely fast speed.
In the next second, Lu Yao's line of sight was instantly occupied by silver light. On the dark ground, silver formations spread out to the surroundings, and the engravings flowed among them.He focused his eyes, and blurted out, "It's another space isolation circle!"
Following Lu Yao's line of sight, there was nothing on the ground, but Grandma Long didn't ask him how he knew, but just confirmed, "Do you recognize it clearly?"
Lu Yao nodded, "It's the isolation magic circle." He has seen the circle pattern of this magic circle several times, and he remembers it very clearly. As he spoke, he felt strange again, "But I can still feel the situation outside."
Wu Zhi said next to him, "The space isolates the magic circle, and the isolation range may also be downward." His eyes were sharp, "There must be something hidden below."
A thought popped up in his mind, and Lu Yao suddenly thought, "If there is something hidden under the Plum Garden, what about the Banyan Garden that collapsed before?" He tightened his fingers, "And, other places in the Mysterious Committee, such as The activity center of Sun Moon Lane."
Thinking down this line of thought, the more I thought about it, the more frightened I became.Lu Yao faintly felt that his idea was right.
If there were hidden things under the buildings in various parts of the Xuan Committee, it would explain what Zhong Huainan said just now. Someone proposed to renovate the house, but it has been put on hold.It can also explain why Zhong Huainan felt the space isolation in the ruins last time in the Banyan Garden, and when he stretched out his hand to pull Xuan Ge, he also saw the silver pattern.
And Zhao Shu, she definitely wanted to survive more than to die, but at that time, the patterns engraved on her body were directly triggered, causing the building to collapse. Could it be that she was trying to cover up something hidden underground?
Finally, Ji Dongge also came over——
As soon as this thought emerged, Lu Yao was suddenly wrapped in Xuan Ge's arms, and suddenly rolled to the side.
The rain on the ground quickly soaked through the clothes, and the bones were cold.Lu Yao didn't care about these things, and hurriedly looked back.
At the place where they were standing just now, the eyes of the array had already exploded, like a blowout, countless black shadows emerged from the ground, densely packed in a large group, exuding a strong blood-smell, which made people sick.
Grandma Long was helped up by Xue Feiyi, staring at the scene in front of her with sharp eyes, "It's a dark crow, made of death energy."
Zhong Huainan gripped the wooden sword tightly, and said in a low voice, "It was the same thing that covered the sky and the ground in the tomb back then."
The rain was still falling, the sky was dark and oppressive, the surrounding air became gloomy and cold, the light of the silver streaks on the ground became weaker, and the wind blew up on the ground.
The death energy around was too strong, Lu Yao's left eye began to swell, and his vision was somewhat unclear.Xuan Ge had been paying attention to Lu Yao's expression, and when he found out, he took a step, stood behind him, and gently covered Lu Yao's eyes with his left hand.
Feeling that the body temperature in his arms was dropping, Xuan Ge simply hugged Lu Yao's waist tightly and tipped his toes.
He only felt the sound of the wind blowing past his ears, but in the blink of an eye, Lu Yao found himself hugged by Xuan Ge, jumped up, and stood on the top of the street lamp, but it was as flat as the ground.
Looking down again, the ground was covered with dead air like a sea tide, and countless crows the size of palms shuttled among them like moths, and they seemed to be summoned, and rushed towards the center one after another.
Soon, amidst the surge of death, a huge crow slowly took shape, and the blood-colored eyes were just at the previous eyes, and gradually lit up.
Suppressing the complex emotions in his heart, Lu Yao tried his best to analyze calmly,
"From my personal point of view, the puppet technique I first came into contact with, and the fish drying formation in the later exams, etc., are all very ancient and lost engravings or formations, and their power is also very powerful. I think it is extremely powerful. Maybe, that person brought them out of the tomb."
Knowing what Lu Yao meant, Xue Feiyi nodded at the side, and echoed, "The things that Zhao Shu has handled are not something that can be produced by the current Xuanshu world. I have the same opinion as Xiao Lu Yao, and I also I feel that the person behind must have brought a lot of things out of the tomb."

If we don't find out, we will really repeat the mistakes of 20 years ago. "
Long Mutang looked at Lu Yao and Xue Feiyi who were looking at him, his eyes softened, and he raised his spirits, "I'll go back and think about it, and make it clear, it's already late today, I'll call Huainan and the others tomorrow, everyone Let's meet and discuss together."
Yi Shu, who was silent for a long time, raised his head, "I'll go tomorrow too." Seeing Long Mutang looking over, he twitched his lips, "I don't want to be a fool who has been kept in the dark for so many years."
"Okay." Long Mutang sighed, and gave an address, "The banyan garden has collapsed before, and I don't know how long it will take to rebuild it. See you in the plum garden tomorrow afternoon."
As soon as he stepped out of the door and entered the yard, Xue Feiyi shivered from the cold outside, habitually stuffed the astrolabe into his clothes quickly, and then asked Lu Yao, "Shall I see you?"

"Well," Xue Feiyi thought for a while, but still said, "Senior Yi is not feeling well today, we didn't get any food after we came here, and we plan to come back another day."
Ji Dongge understood, "I was just passing by nearby and was greedy. In this case, I won't go in and come back in two days." He smiled, the fine lines around his eyes were not obvious, and he looked very young , "You also go back earlier, pay attention to safety."
Lu Yao was watching the two talking, and he found that Ji Dongge was indeed as Xue Feiyi said. He was very afraid of the cold, kept his hands in his pockets, and wore a hat on his head. covered up.Apart from the face, nothing was exposed of the whole person, which was tightly packed.
When Ji Dongge turned and walked out, Lu Yao subconsciously took a look at the other person's walking posture, and did not find anything weird, so he looked away.

Touching Lu Yao's neck, Xuan Ge carefully buttoned all the top buttons for him, helping him to recall together, "You were in the store that day, when you came over when the time came, first you met Yu Changsheng and Zhong Huainan , and then saw Long Mutang and Xue Feiyi, followed by Yi Shu, Ji Dongge, and finally the puppet."
After recalling it several times, but found nothing wrong, Lu Yao hugged Xuan Ge's waist, remembered what the other party said, and paid attention to it.

"Then I can print a stack of business cards for you," Xuan Ge teased him, "The leader of the violent demolition team, Lu Xiaomao."
"Captain? Do I have a squad?"

Yu Changsheng nodded, "Well, long time no see."
Zhong Huainan sat down, not smiling like before, and not in a good spirit, "Long Mutang called me in the morning and told me everything."

At that time, he was driven by Cheng Xiao to watch the racing cars on the abandoned road on the mountain, which is the road he took.
Xuan Ge nodded and pointed in the direction, "That mountain is there, there should be a river around it."
It was only after four o'clock, and the sky had already darkened. When we got out of the car, we could only faintly see the outline of the mountain.A few people walked in with umbrellas, because the building was old, there were many potholes on the ground, and a lot of water accumulated.Lu Yao paid attention to his feet, wrapped his coat tightly, took a breath, and could faintly smell the fragrance of plum blossoms in the damp and cold water vapor.
"Wait for me!"
A voice came from behind, Lu Yao turned around, and saw Xue Feiyi wearing a white down jacket, holding a sky blue umbrella, running towards them like the wind.
And in order to avoid puddles on the ground, his movements can be described as bouncing and jumping.However, the astrolabe was not affected at all, and it was suspended steadily on his shoulders.
Stopping to take a few breaths, Xue Feiyi wiped the mist from her hair, "Fuck, why is this plum garden even more dilapidated than the banyan garden? I once again felt how short of funds the Xuan Committee really is. It's late at night Don’t you need a set for ghost movies?”
After speaking, he looked at Xuan Ge and Lu Yao, and finally chose to stand beside Yu Changsheng.
Zhong Huainan explained, "These buildings are indeed old. They are all houses left by my predecessors. Maybe everyone is nostalgic for the old days and has been reluctant to abandon them. However, some people mentioned a few years ago that they should renovate houses all over the country. , but construction has not started yet, and I don’t know which link has a problem.”
The building in Meiyuan is also a small building, only two stories high.Entering the room from the gate, Grandma Long and Yi Shu had already arrived, as well as Grandpa Wu and Wu Xian, and Mr. Song who was taking Lu Yao to take the Jiamu level exam was sitting next to them, all of whom were acquaintances.
Zhong Huainan sat on the chair, "Not all the people?"
"There are still a few who can't make it through." After speaking, Grandma Long poured a cup of hot tea for everyone, "The temperature has dropped again today, drink some hot tea to keep you warm."
While drinking tea, Wu Xian, who was sitting opposite Lu Yao, touched his bald head and waved slightly to greet Lu Yao.
Lu Yao hadn't seen Wu Xian since he left the venue of the music festival last time. Seeing that the other party's bald head was still shiny, he couldn't help but greet him quietly.
Grandma Long put down the teacup in her hand, looked at the people present, "Everyone already knows the matter," she looked at Lu Yao with a serious expression, "Tell me your guess in detail first."
Lu Yao nodded, "I think the purpose of the puppet this time is to let me obliterate the consciousness of Lihuo Floating Disc Spirit, and obviously, only I, as a blood pact person, can do this."
He didn't really like to call Xuan Ge the spirit of the weapon, he felt a little disgusted, subconsciously put his hand under the table, secretly hooked Xuan Ge's finger, and shook it twice, but Xuan Ge directly grabbed it with his backhand.
With a very serious expression, Lu Yao organized his words again, "In addition, the person behind once instructed Lu Mingde to turn me into a puppet, I guess, maybe that person wants to control the Lihuo Floating Disk by controlling me.
But if you simply want to achieve the goal of controlling the hexagram disk, then you don't need to spend a lot of effort to erase Qi Ling's consciousness.That's why I guessed whether that person wanted to use me and Qi Ling as a medium to control another thing. "
After finishing speaking, Lu Yao smiled a little embarrassedly, "What I said was a bit convoluted, I don't know if I expressed it clearly."
"It's very clear," Grandma Long nodded, "Any other ideas?"
After hesitating for a while, Lu Yao still didn't mention Yuanshui. He believed in Grandma Long, but he was not sure that everyone present was completely credible. Besides, he was not sure whether he really had Yuanshui on him now.
Seeing Lu Yao finished speaking, Grandma Long took over the conversation, "I went back last night and took care of it. At that time, we entered the tomb together, and there were a total of 21 people. Excluding the nine who had passed away, I don't know who they are after leaving the Xuan Committee." Five people are missing, but three of these five people have been confirmed to have passed away. As for those who are still alive, there are still nine left, and seven remain in the Xuan Committee."
She looked at the people present, "I, Huainan, Wu Zhi, Song Que, accounted for four. And Xiao Zhuang's grandfather, Dong Tingxiu, Fang Yuan."
There are only a few people left in those days.
After listening to this, Lu Yao was a little puzzled, "Did the president not go?"
Zhong Huainan replied, "Ji Dongge became the chairman after the turmoil ended. He was still young at that time, so he didn't go with him."
As he spoke, he looked at Long Mutang, "Back then in the tomb, we all swore an oath not to reveal the matter in order to maintain the stability of the mysterious art world."
Thinking of what happened afterwards, Zhong Huainan hugged the wooden sword in his arms, and the memories about A Luo in his mind couldn't be suppressed.
Grandpa Wu also nodded, "So could it be that it wasn't one of us who revealed this matter, but someone else went into the tomb later?"
"When we left, we used formations to seal the tomb, but we can't rule out the possibility that Lao Wu said." Grandma Long pinched her brows, "Everyone carefully recalled the memory, is there anything strange about that year... "
It was very windy outside, the windows were not closed properly, and they made some annoying noises after being blown open by the wind.Seeing Grandma Long and the others discussing, Lu Yao got up and went to the window.
Just as he stretched out his hand to pull the old-fashioned window over, something flashed in Lu Yao's peripheral vision.
He turned his head, it was rainy and desolate outside, there was a clump of bushes in the corner, the light was very dim, and the light from the street lamp could not shine through.Lu Yao thought he had read it wrong, and was about to withdraw his hand, when he suddenly felt the tortoise shell on his wrist faintly hot.
--very familiar.
Lu Yao hesitated for two seconds and turned his head, just in time to meet Xuan Ge's focused gaze, he made a gesture, and after a while, Xuan Ge came over, "What's wrong?"
Pointing out the window, Lu Yao whispered, "I seemed to see something flashing past just now, but it disappeared when I looked again, and I don't know if it's my eyesight." Then, he raised his wrist, "But the tortoise shell is getting hot. "
Xuan Ge frowned, "Tell them."
After listening to what Lu Yao said, without doubting the authenticity, Wu Zhi stood up, "Wu Xian, go out and have a look with me." After saying that, he took an umbrella and went out, Lu Yao and Xuan Ge followed.
The rain had subsided, but it was still very cold. The four of them walked around to the window sill, Wu Zhi opened the messy bushes, and the flashlight shined on them.
"There is indeed something." He asked Lu Yao and Wu Xian to hold the flashlight, and when the light was focused on that point, he bent down and stretched out his hand.
After probing for a while, his hand suddenly touched a round stone pier. The surface was uneven, full of carvings, and there was no moss or other things covering it.
Wu Zhi squatted down, studied for a while, and made a judgment, "This should be a formation eye." I don't know what method he used, Wu Zhi made two handprints, and there were nine layers of protective air above the formation eye. You can see it with the naked eye.
Grandma Long stood inside the window, "Are you sure it's the eye?"
"Sure," Wu Zhi looked up at Long Mutang, "After the Banyan Garden collapsed, it was moved to the Plum Garden and cleaned up." But now that there is an intact formation eye, the formation must not have been destroyed.
Then, either after cleaning up, someone re-arranged it.Or the cleaning is only a superficial effort.
Zhong Huainan looked at Shidun and asked, "Can you tell what magic circle it is?"
"Concealment circle, blinding method, the function is to make people ignore this thing subconsciously, and then hide things that they hope will not be discovered."
After finishing speaking, he patted the engraving on the surface of the stone with his palm, asking for advice, "Is it open? I don't know what's underneath."
Zhong Huainan and Yi Shu answered quickly, "Yes."
Grandma Long pondered, but still gave the same answer, "Open it, and see what is so carefully hidden."
Wu Zhi nodded, didn't speak any more, and took out a copper awl from his bag, the sharp point of the awl was frighteningly cold.He observed the stone pier for a few seconds, then stabbed it down with a copper awl, only to hear several crackling sounds, the surface of the stone pier suddenly cracked, and then turned into powder at an extremely fast speed.
In the next second, Lu Yao's line of sight was instantly occupied by silver light. On the dark ground, silver formations spread out to the surroundings, and the engravings flowed among them.He focused his eyes, and blurted out, "It's another space isolation circle!"
Following Lu Yao's line of sight, there was nothing on the ground, but Grandma Long didn't ask him how he knew, but just confirmed, "Do you recognize it clearly?"
Lu Yao nodded, "It's the isolation magic circle." He has seen the circle pattern of this magic circle several times, and he remembers it very clearly. As he spoke, he felt strange again, "But I can still feel the situation outside."
Wu Zhi said next to him, "The space isolates the magic circle, and the isolation range may also be downward." His eyes were sharp, "There must be something hidden below."
A thought popped up in his mind, and Lu Yao suddenly thought, "If there is something hidden under the Plum Garden, what about the Banyan Garden that collapsed before?" He tightened his fingers, "And, other places in the Mysterious Committee, such as The activity center of Sun Moon Lane."
Thinking down this line of thought, the more I thought about it, the more frightened I became.Lu Yao faintly felt that his idea was right.
If there were hidden things under the buildings in various parts of the Xuan Committee, it would explain what Zhong Huainan said just now. Someone proposed to renovate the house, but it has been put on hold.It can also explain why Zhong Huainan felt the space isolation in the ruins last time in the Banyan Garden, and when he stretched out his hand to pull Xuan Ge, he also saw the silver pattern.
And Zhao Shu, she definitely wanted to survive more than to die, but at that time, the patterns engraved on her body were directly triggered, causing the building to collapse. Could it be that she was trying to cover up something hidden underground?
Finally, Ji Dongge also came over——
As soon as this thought emerged, Lu Yao was suddenly wrapped in Xuan Ge's arms, and suddenly rolled to the side.
The rain on the ground quickly soaked through the clothes, and the bones were cold.Lu Yao didn't care about these things, and hurriedly looked back.
At the place where they were standing just now, the eyes of the array had already exploded, like a blowout, countless black shadows emerged from the ground, densely packed in a large group, exuding a strong blood-smell, which made people sick.
Grandma Long was helped up by Xue Feiyi, staring at the scene in front of her with sharp eyes, "It's a dark crow, made of death energy."
Zhong Huainan gripped the wooden sword tightly, and said in a low voice, "It was the same thing that covered the sky and the ground in the tomb back then."
The rain was still falling, the sky was dark and oppressive, the surrounding air became gloomy and cold, the light of the silver streaks on the ground became weaker, and the wind blew up on the ground.
The death energy around was too strong, Lu Yao's left eye began to swell, and his vision was somewhat unclear.Xuan Ge had been paying attention to Lu Yao's expression, and when he found out, he took a step, stood behind him, and gently covered Lu Yao's eyes with his left hand.
Feeling that the body temperature in his arms was dropping, Xuan Ge simply hugged Lu Yao's waist tightly and tipped his toes.
He only felt the sound of the wind blowing past his ears, but in the blink of an eye, Lu Yao found himself hugged by Xuan Ge, jumped up, and stood on the top of the street lamp, but it was as flat as the ground.
Looking down again, the ground was covered with dead air like a sea tide, and countless crows the size of palms shuttled among them like moths, and they seemed to be summoned, and rushed towards the center one after another.
Soon, amidst the surge of death, a huge crow slowly took shape, and the blood-colored eyes were just at the previous eyes, and gradually lit up.
