hermit meets king

"Are you there?" Xu Sheng saw that there was still a jungle of thorns in front of him, and there was nothing special about it.Stretching out the jungle in front of him, it was as if he had entered another world.

It is simply a wonder of the world.

The most shocking thing is the endless blue lake, like a sapphire inlaid between heaven and earth.

There seems to be an island in the middle, looming, hidden under heavy fog.Countless birds and seagulls hover over the lake.Macaques, foxes, hares, pheasants and even tigers and elks play freely here.

There are no predators and prey at all, the law of survival in the jungle seems to have a powerful force that makes them put down all the fighting.

The most important thing is that it is clearly winter now, and even though spring is about to begin, the scene here is actually an autumn scene.As far as the eye can see, it is full of autumn.

All the trees are covered with yellow leaves in autumn, and the ground is full of fallen leaves.

One day, the golden color permeates the azure lake, connecting with the blue sky of the lake.

They were standing on a small cliff.Looking at the jungle trees and various rare animals below, as well as the blue sea and sky in the distance.

No one would have imagined that in the capital, there would be such an outsider.Although it is in the suburbs, where is this lake connected in the distance?I'm afraid everyone doesn't know.

There is such a piece of heaven and earth hidden, this is the Jingchitan mentioned in the ancient books, I always thought it was fake, it was a legend.

After all, it is in the capital city, after all, in the royal hunting ground. It is not that no one has looked for it, but no one has been able to find it.Now, it was discovered by the children around him.

Some things really need fate.

"What a beautiful place." Si Koulin couldn't help sighing, "How nice it is to live here."

"This is the little secret you discovered?" Xu Sheng took the child's hand and took a step forward, entering this unbelievably beautiful paradise.Xu Sheng could imagine that there would be a bigger secret waiting here.

"En!" Si Koulin took Xu Sheng's hand and looked up at Xu Sheng.It's like a child looking at his big brother trustingly, and even wanting to show off childishly, look at how amazing I am.

Xu Sheng looked down at the elf-like child, and patted his head.

I may have picked up a treasure, but what is the price behind this treasure?

"Can we go down?" Si Koulin looked at the cliff below his feet. There were many vines beside him, densely covering the entire cliff, like a huge golden curtain covering it.It's not impossible to think about it, but it's a little scary.

After all, the beauty here is too unreal, and I even feel that any step I set foot in will destroy this paradise-like place and be punished.

However, there is just a strong feeling that I belong here.Or there is some powerful force here that attracts me.

Xu Cheng looked at the young man who was eager to try, but also a little timid.Now that I'm here today, if I don't go to see it, I may not have a chance in the future.Being here is a chance.

Xu Sheng stretched out his hand and pulled a thick cane, tested the strength on his hand, and clamped the boy tightly with one arm, "Hold me..."

Si Koulin hugged Xu Sheng's waist, and Xu Sheng led him to fly from the top of the cliff into the beautiful picture scroll.Like a bird, it feels so free.

A cliff with a height of [-] meters is moving rapidly in front of you.

Holding the boy in his arms, Xu Sheng slowed down and landed steadily on the ground.

The soft soil, the fragrant grass, a flock of birds flew up and scattered in all directions, and various small animals jumped and hid in the jungle.

Not far away is the blue lake, even if you look at it so close, it is still beautiful and unreal.

Xu Sheng brought Si Koulin to the lake, and looked at the small island in the middle of the lake in the distance, faintly visible.Said, "Do you know the legend here?" "

"Legend?" Si Koulin knelt down and scooped up a ladle of water, which was icy cold. "This legend must be beautiful."

Xu Sheng smiled and said slowly, "It's really beautiful."

Si Koulin looked at Xu Sheng's golden eyes, reflecting the yellow leaves all over the sky, and felt that he should belong here.

Feeling that there is a whole world in those golden eyes that look like swirls, she is deeply immersed in it, and asked obsessively, "What is it?"

"This continuous mountain group is called Autumn God Mountain. Legend has it that the ancient gods controlled autumn, but fell in love with Fanzi and violated the law of heaven.

So he plucked one eye and turned it into Chi Tan, and the primordial spirit returned to Ju Chi, guarding Fanzi.Every child is born here and dies here. "

Xu Sheng looked at the lost island in the distance, looked back at the boy, and said slowly, "In this way, he has lived life after life in his eyes."

Si Koulin looked at Xu Sheng's golden eyes, and slowly said after him, "In his eyes, he has lived life after life..." With such beautiful eyes, I also think, what do I think? !Si Koulin was shocked by his own thoughts.

"Besides, monsters are easy to grow here." Xu Sheng has always known that there must be such things in this world. "Can you feel it?"

"Yes, there." Si Koulin raised his finger and pointed to the lake in the distance.I think there is a thing there.

"what?"

"I don't know. I just feel it." Si Koulin closed his eyes and slowly felt, "It seems to be like this. It seems that there is nothing."

Xu Sheng lowered his head, looked at the boy with his eyes closed, reached out and stroked his head, the soft hair felt very delicate in his hands.

Si Koulin froze his head, not daring to move.

The two of them walked and looked at this place full of yellow leaves and autumn scenery, and they were about to go back when it was almost time.

Xu Sheng asked the young man to lie on his shoulders, hugged his neck tightly, exhausted his internal energy, and climbed up the cliff with his strong arms, clung to the vines.

Go back the way you came.

Xu Sheng couldn't remember the roads he walked when he came here, but the young man remembered it very firmly, as if he was being guided in the dark.

Back at the mansion, it was already dark.

The two had dinner.Xu Sheng went back to his room, opened the secret door, and took out the ancient book that Qiu got from the carpenter Weng.

Once out, go to the next room.

Si Koulin was wearing his underwear, lying on the bed with his long hair loose, reading a book.

Xu Sheng handed over the ancient book to Si Koulin, which contained some spiritual cultivation methods.It can strengthen his mind, so that he will not be attacked by evil spirits and ghosts, and he will not have to be mentally unbalanced frequently.

Xu Sheng originally thought that this matter was under his own control up to this point, and there was nothing wrong with it.

But in the middle of the night, Si Koulin suddenly broke into his room, shook him awake with a terrified expression, hid behind him, turned to the door of the room, and whispered, "There is something there."

Xu Sheng comforted the young man, looked at the door of the room, there was nothing there, and asked, "What is it?"

"I don't know, it seems to be a ghost." Si Koulin said hesitantly, "It seems not. He seems to understand us."

Xu Sheng stopped Si Koulin from continuing, drew out his sword, and walked to the door of the room, but there was nothing there, nothing.

Si Koulin, who was following behind Xu Sheng, said, "He's gone..."

"What?" Xu Sheng was still puzzled.

"I don't know. He has a ghostly aura, but it doesn't look like after death. It's another powerful feeling. I've never felt it before. It even makes people feel eerie and cold when they think about it."

What Xu Sheng was more concerned about was, "You mean, can he understand our words?" Usually little ghosts are dead and unconscious, but this one is actually conscious?

"Yes." Si Koulin was still very nervous. If it was the past, he would never tell anyone about these strange things.

But now, he trusts Xu Sheng, "When I told you that I had something, he seemed surprised that I found him. Then he left..."

Xu Sheng thought, maybe something came after the place he went today.

But he didn't express this idea.

Instead, he coaxed the young man to go back to sleep, but Si Koulin was very scared. It felt as if he had always been able to feel those things in a vague way, but one day he suddenly saw the real thing.How dare not stay alone.

Xu Sheng had no choice but to stay by his side and wait for him to fall asleep before going back to his room.

The next day Xu Sheng asked someone to secretly order someone to ask for some tricks from the carpenter, and to invite the ghost chicken to come over and place it in the yard.

Si Koulin was surprised, so he dismantled several of them to study, but with these things, he was not afraid of those ghosts.

A small courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing.

A black shadow stood in front of a scholar.

Qi Wenxiu listened to Kuang Jue's report about the psychic proton in Tai'an Palace.

It turned out that what came to Tai'an Palace today was not something from Qiushen Mountain, but the ghost driver beside Qi Wenxiu.

In fact, Qi Wenxiu has been sending someone to secretly watch Xu Sheng.So what happened on Qiushen Mountain this morning was seen by Qi Wenxiu's spies and reported to Qi Wenxiu.

In Qiushen Mountain, the wild deer could actually stop and stand in front of him obediently.Behind but disappeared.It was not until the evening that he suddenly appeared and returned to the palace.Qi Wenxiu thought about it, it really wasn't easy.

Qi Wenxiu thought that this boy had a special ability to understand the habits of animals, so he deliberately asked Kuangjue to check it out. With Kuangjue's ability, it was impossible for others to find him.

Unexpectedly, this boy could feel him.

And this Xu Sheng is hiding such a treasure, so he doesn't make a sound.

I thought that although this 20-year-old general was smart, he was not deep enough.He actually escaped this matter from his own eyes.

Looks like I have to go there tomorrow.

The next day, Tai'an Palace.

Qi Wenxiu visits Xu Sheng.

Coincidentally, when Xu Sheng was talking with Qi Wenxiu in the yard, Si Kou Lin came to ask Xu Sheng to teach him how to practice swords.

Since the last time Si Koulin practiced sword with his coach, he was accidentally injured.And this child really doesn't get close to other strangers.Except for Xu Sheng, he thought everyone was very reserved in front of him.

From then on, it was Xu Sheng who taught him himself.

Xu Sheng didn't know that Qi Wenxiu already knew about it, and he thought that the strange thing last night was because of Qiushen Mountain.So I didn't guard against it.
