Chapter 243 When the Flying Birds Float in the Blue Sky Under the Moon·Thirteen
"... It is said that hundreds of years ago, Shu was humid, full of poisonous snakes, and filled with thick miasma. An immortal traveled here and felt pity for the living beings there, so he played the zither for seven nights in Bishan. Afterwards, all the grass grew, the miasma dissipated, and green bamboos grew everywhere. Seven Nights and a Lamp is a magical herb that was born at that time. It can attract immortal beasts that avoid poison, dispel foul air, and guide passers-by in thick fog.
It is regarded as a treasure by the people of Shu." Master Tang has read countless poisonous herbs, so how could he not recognize Seven Nights and a Lamp? He did not want this thing to continue to stay in the world, and even wanted to cut it up immediately when Xiao Hao took it out.
The Seven Nights and One Lamp has been hard to find for more than a hundred years. The reason behind this is precisely because of the Tang Sect.
Xiao Hao did not know that the Tang Sect had deliberately destroyed the Seven Nights and One Lamp. When he heard Master Tang talk about the origin of the Seven Nights and One Lamp, he was very happy that he recognized it.
He briefly told Master Tang about the things in Liuyue City, hiding some secrets that could not be revealed to outsiders, and begged Master Tang to use this item to study ways to resist the turbid air.
Master Tang was helped a lot by Xiao Hao in the matter of reviving Tangjiabao. Xiao Hao's request at this moment could not be easily rejected.
Master Tang fell into a long period of thinking.
Xiao Hao wanted him to study this thing out of the desire to save lives and because doctors have a compassionate heart. Moreover, both of them have practiced the Bu Tian Jue, so it is their duty to help others get rid of their illnesses and pains. But...
he frowned and asked cautiously, "Besides you, who else knows about the existence of Seven Nights and One Lamp?"
Xiao Hao paused, but answered truthfully, "Tang Yi, and the elder of Pili Hall. But I silenced that man last night."
Master Tang breathed a sigh of relief, and said seriously, "I can help you, but besides the Tang family's accident, I have another condition."
He turned around, leaving Xiao Hao with only a somewhat lonely back, "I know your experience here is very different from mine, and your spiritual power is a hundred times stronger than mine..." He slowed down and uttered the words that had lingered in his heart for more than ten years:
"I want to go back to Miaojiang."
Xiao Hao was stunned, then responded seriously, "Okay."
They came to this world through the Mirror of Past and Future. The ancient mirror in Liuyue City might be able to help.
However, the Realm
of Commutation is connected to the Demon Realm, and a mortal body cannot survive there. Even if Master Tang returns to the Five Immortals Sect through the Mirror of Commutation, only a trace of soul will remain. He has been wandering in a foreign land for so many years, and it is natural for him to want to go home.
Master Tang saw how serious he was, and immediately laughed. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "You look too serious. Relax a little! I don't expect you to succeed. Of course, you shouldn't expect too much from me. The theory of medicine is so complicated that it will take ten or eight years to figure out anything. Maybe I won't be able to figure it out in my lifetime."
Xiao Hao nodded and thanked him sincerely, "I am very happy that you agreed."
With Master Tang's help in researching medicine, Xiao Hao felt that a burden was lifted. The orders from Zhan Ni Tang were not available every day. He returned to Tang Sect regularly, and the rest of the time he could focus on finding Chang Qin.
In addition, although Su Xin had caused him two months of trouble, the matter of the gold mud turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Originally, if his fragile cannon encountered a cultivator, he would be killed immediately after being attacked. However, after being covered with the mutated Lianjin mud, Yanjia's body became very hard and solid, impervious to swords and guns, water and fire, and with an external defense of 50, it was comparable to an iron T. It was simply too hard.
He wrote a letter to Tong in Liuyue City and asked Baifeng to take a set of seven nights and one lantern to tell him about his recent achievements before returning to the Sword Tomb.
Shi Zhixuan was learning how to use spiritual power with Ziyin here, and his progress was rapid. Ziyin reminded Xiao Hao that he had reached the critical point of overcoming the tribulation, so they should pay more attention.
"I haven't found the whereabouts of the Phoenix in Autumn Wu that you mentioned before, but I have also heard some clues." Ziyin waved his sleeves and an ancient zither appeared in front of him. "I once visited an old friend in the East China Sea and passed through Penglai. I saw the scene of the phoenixes singing in unison that you mentioned. I was very surprised at that time. Recently, I returned to the old place and learned from the Kuiniu monster there that the person who played the zither at that time was a gentle and An elegant young man."
Xiao Hao's eyes lit up, and he immediately confirmed: "It must be him! Is he in the East China Sea now?"
Zi Yin shook his head, "Coincidentally, Nanxun Zhenren of Taihua Mountain and I have a close personal relationship. She said that more than a hundred years ago, a very similar young immortal carrying a fairy weapon came to Taihua Mountain to watch the snow. "
Xiao Hao thought about the distance from the East China Sea to Taihua Mountain, and suddenly doubts rose in his heart.
Ziyin went on, "I asked Zhenren Nanxun about the whereabouts of the immortal. She said that he had a very pleasant conversation with Ge Shanjun and they hit it off immediately. The two of them agreed to go to the Great Wall together to watch the sunset over the desert river."
Xiao Hao was a little amused and helpless, "This..."
Ziyin held the guqin flat in front of Xiao Hao and said, "So I went to find Ge Shanjun. He said that the dragon that accompanied that man had not been able to transform into a dragon for many years, and that he had accidentally found a jade wall with dragon patterns in Shu hundreds of years ago, which seemed to be of some use to the black dragon, so he resolutely went to Bashu. A few days later, he left a letter and entrusted this spring to Ge Shanjun. Since then, there has been no news from him."
Xiao Hao only then looked at the guqin carefully. When he saw its properties clearly, he was stunned.
The qin is not a particularly precious piece of equipment, but... Chunsong is a weapon that can only be found in treasure hunts.
Combined with what Ziyin said about the dragon-patterned wall, an answer is about to emerge in Xiao Hao's mind.
He remembered the origin of the seven nights and one lamp mentioned by Master Tang. The immortal who made all the grass in Shu grow, the miasma dissipated, and the green bamboos spread all over the land, could it be...
The forests of Bashu, the shores of the East China Sea, the Taihua Snow Mountain, the Great Wall of the Desert... Changqin has been very busy these years.
Ziyin saw his reaction, curled the corners of his lips lightly and said, "You really do know this thing."
Xiao Hao frowned and said, "According to the immortal, there has been no news of him since he went to Shu?"
Ziyin nodded and said, "Ge Shanjun has been looking for his whereabouts, but he seems to have evaporated from the Three Realms. He once mentioned in a letter that the space near the Jialing River in Bashu is very complex and wonderful, and it is connected to many unknown secret realms. Out of curiosity, he went to explore those secret realms. Ge Shanjun suspected that he might have encountered some trouble in the secret realm and was trapped in Shu and unable to escape."
Xiao Hao immediately understood that Changqin might have left the treasure cave while digging for treasure and was accidentally trapped inside.
He had dug a lot of dragon-patterned walls in Tangjiabao, and knew which places had a higher probability of digging out this thing. If Changqin was really in trouble... I didn't know if I had a chance to dig him out. Whether or not you
can find a treasure cave depends on luck. Now that you have a direction, you have to dig three feet into the ground to pry the door open.
Xiao Hao secretly made up his mind. Looking at the Spring Song, he suddenly had another question in his mind: "Ge Shanjun and him hit it off at first sight, and their friendship is not shallow. How could he easily hand over the things he entrusted to him?"
"..." Ziyin was silent for a rare moment, then he put his hands behind his back and said seriously: "The sword understands human nature. The shape of this sword is simple, and there is a kind of power of longing contained in it. It's just that Ge Shanjun is not the person it cares about, so it cannot share the same thoughts with it. I brought it back to the sword tomb, and I also want to transcend the power of thought in it and make it reborn."
Xiao Hao vaguely thought of something, suppressed his smile and nodded: "So that's how it is."
He thanked Ziyin again, didn't stay for long, and went to Bishan with Shi Zhixuan.
With his physical strength, it was impossible to dig all along the Jialing River. Even with Shi Zhixuan's help, it was very difficult to dig out the treasure cave. Xiao Hao simply settled down nearby, helping Tangjiabao with tasks while waiting for his physical strength to recover and continue digging for Changqin all over the mountains.
Days passed, and the dragon-patterned walls in his warehouse gradually filled up several boxes. Countless materials were sent to Tangjiabao, but he never dug out what he wanted to see.
He had dug out a hole in Kunlun Mountain with just one shovel, but now it was as if he had turned on the difficult treasure hunting mode. No matter how many holes he dug around Tangmen, he couldn't find the secret place where Changqin was.
Xiao Hao was not discouraged, and continued to search in the bamboo forest day after day.
The reputation of Tangjiabao in the martial arts world continued to rise. Now, whenever the name of the first assassin of the Tang Sect was mentioned, everyone would be terrified. From the evil criminals to the immortal cultivators, as long as they could afford the price, no one could escape the life-threatening arrow of the Tang Sect.
Once the Thousand Machine Box flashing with dark blue electric light appeared in the sight, it was equivalent to announcing Yan Luo's soul-stealing order. No matter how high you go, you can't escape tonight. On
this day, Xiao Hao returned from the mission, and Shi Zhixuan was waiting for him at the door of his residence with a lantern. The warm yellow light was reflected in the depths of the bamboo, which was very conspicuous.
Xiao Hao collected the flying eagle and landed in front of Shi Zhixuan. He always had a treasure-hunting compass on him and saw a box under his feet, so he dug a shovel.
"I told you long ago that you don't have to wait for me at night. I can walk back and forth in Tangmen with my eyes closed and won't get lost."
Shi Zhixuan smiled faintly and said, "I did this before when I was in Bu Tian Pavilion. It's not so easy to adjust to the habit of hiding during the day and going out at night."
Xiao Hao shook his head helplessly, but with a little warmth in his heart, he dug hard and pried up a hard and solid object.
He was used to this kind of disappointment and couldn't help but sigh: "Ah, this time it's also a-"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something strange under his feet. The ground and the surrounding bamboo forest shook in unison, and he almost lost his grip on the shovel.
Xiao Hao immediately pulled Shi Zhixuan back a few steps, alert to this unfamiliar situation.
From the newly dug hole, a dark green light column shot up into the sky, piercing through the sky, causing the sea of clouds to shake, the earth to roar, and countless birds to fly up in the bamboo forest.
This strange phenomenon that pierced through the heavens stirred the spiritual energy of the human world. Fuxi, who was high in the sky, seemed to have sensed something and cast a deep gaze at the light column.
The wind and smoke dissipated, and the familiar green entrance appeared in front of him.
When Xiao Hao heard the system's excited "ding", the light in his eyes dimmed quickly.
He stepped into the cave without hesitation. Shi Zhixuan looked at him in confusion, wanting to remind him to observe first, but seeing that Xiao Hao seemed to be unaware of anything and only knew to move forward, his heart skipped a beat.
"Ah Hao, wait!" He grabbed the strap on Xiao Hao's clothes that was tied with a hidden weapon, but a short arrow flew past his cheek, leaving a blood mark.
Shi Zhixuan frowned and suddenly let go.
The Tang Sect's disciples on duty had already rushed over here. Shi Zhixuan couldn't hold Xiao Hao back, so he had to follow him into the cave with a faint light.
But as soon as he entered the cave, the figure beside him fell down silently.
Shi Zhixuan reacted very quickly and caught the unconscious Xiao Hao immediately. He protected himself with the power of sitting and forgetting himself. He looked at the unfamiliar environment in front of him and was on high alert.
The author has something to say: Ritian: Ge Shanjun and he hit it off at first sight and they have a deep friendship. How could he easily hand over the things he entrusted to you?
Ziyin [mysterious silence]: ...
Ziyin [serious]: The sword understands human nature. The shape of this sword is simple and there is a kind of power of longing contained in it. However, Ge Shanjun is not the person it cares about, so it cannot share the same thoughts with it. I brought it back to the sword tomb, and I also want to transcend the power of thought in it and make it reborn.
Ritian [suddenly realized]: ... The real person is in a good mood [suddenly felt sorry for the stupid Ge Shanjun.
Shi Zhixuan [what's wrong]: Wait, the person you care about...? ? ?

This chapter has a faster ending. There are about seven hidden secrets...
a very obvious easter egg, it feels like it should be impossible to hide it_(:з」∠)_First come first served!
In addition, Ziyin is a sword cultivator, you know... so he taught Shi Zhixuan... let me light the candle silently.
