Yan and Mingzhu were seen with serious and determined expressions. They walked to the jade gate calmly and looked at each other. Mingzhu smiled first:
"Have you thought of it too?"
Yan nodded:
"Yes, I thought of it too."
"Why is this happening?" Mingzhu asked again.
"Perhaps as the ancestors said, everything has been arranged in advance. It is precisely because you are a descendant of the Fang family and I am a descendant of the patron saint that God allows us to meet and allows us to do what we do.
Let's play that game." When Yan answered Mingzhu, his eyes flashed with a dazzling light, full of deep affection, and it was as if he had fallen into beautiful memories.
It turns out that when Mingzhu was still very young, she followed Homura back to Sicily for a year's vacation, where she met one of Homura's division commanders, who was also a senior mafia member. He was also a Sicilian and had been in trouble when he was young.
I have heard many legends about Sicily in many places. Once, he told Mingzhu and Yan a story about pirates.
It is said that pirates drift in the mysterious sea all year round and always encounter some magical treasures, and these treasures must be deeply hidden with locks that no one can open. And this kind of lock,
It cannot be cut open with a sword. There is only one way to open it, which is to find two people who really have the same mind, let their blood drip onto the lock at the same time, and the lock will open automatically. Therefore, this is also a test for two people.
One of the most effective ways is to determine whether individuals are truly connected.
Later, lovers in Sicily inherited this method, dripping the blood of two people on a lock to prove that they were connected from now on.
At that time, Mingzhu and Yan were still children. They were deeply attracted by this story and eager to find such a mysterious treasure, not for the gold and silver treasures inside, but to test it.
Do they really have the same mind?
And just now, when they saw the jade door, they all thought of the wish they had when they were young.
"Let's begin." Mingzhu took out the dagger she carried and pointed it at her wrist.
Looking at Mingzhu's slender wrists as white as jade, Yan's heart ached:
"Mingzhu, you've suffered, please bear with the pain."
Mingzhu smiled:
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Mingzhu's dagger was also a sword that could cut iron as well as clay. She lightly rubbed the dagger on her wrist, and a bright red blood mark appeared on her wrist, followed by a string of blood beads dripping out.
Mingzhu immediately aimed her wrist at the center of the jade gate, letting her blood fall on the jade gate drop by drop. Seeing that Mingzhu had taken action, Yan didn't waste any more time and cut his wrist. He
The blood just dripped on Mingzhu's blood.
People looked at the two of them nervously. Although they did not understand the conversation between Mingzhu and Yan just now, they also understood that they were going to open the Jade Gate in this way. No one dared to stop them because they couldn't think of it.
They have to find other ways. Now their only hope is to hope that opening this door will not require too much blood!
It was so quiet in the cave that you could hear the sound of blood knocking on the jade door. Suddenly, you saw that the blood of Mingzhu and his two people had gathered together and seemed to turn into a red ribbon, and this ribbon seemed to have something.
Like life, it slid quickly along the Jade Gate. After it slid around the Jade Gate for a full circle, the Jade Gate suddenly opened!
Yan smiled forgetfully at Mingzhu:
"We really have the same mind."
Mingzhu was about to rush into the Jade Gate in one step, but she was faster than Li Chengqi. As soon as she moved, Li Chengqi had already grabbed her and was the first to rush into the Jade Gate. Seeing his actions, Yan felt in his heart
Touched, he knew that this was because the situation in Yumen was unknown, so Li Chengqi didn't want Mingzhu to take risks.
Yan couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart:
'This Chinese man is sincere to the Pearl. If I really encounter any accident, I can rest assured if I can hand the Pearl to him.'
At this time, all four of them entered the Yumen. The Yumen was not filled with mysterious white mist as described by the missionary. Now in front of them, there was no trace of mist. It seemed that the mist was
Following the appearance of the ancestors, the white mist will only appear when people enter that kind of dream-like scene. But they are in the real world now, so everything they see in front of them is real.
This should also be part of the cave. The overall shape really looks like a dragon. The dragon's head is at the deepest part of the cave, and where they are standing now is the dragon's tail. The entire cave is a slender dragon body.
The four of them looked around and saw murals carved on the four walls of the cave. However, the murals were covered with dust and cobwebs, so they couldn't see clearly what was carved on them. On the stone wall directly in front, there were
With a lifelike dragon head.
There is no doubt that this is the Dragon Vein, but what should they do after entering here? Several people looked at each other, no one had any idea. Mingzhu shook the colorful feather clothes in his hand, but the feather clothes were always quiet, without any movement.
Li Chengqi said in a deep voice:
"I think there may be some secrets hidden in these murals."
These people are all extremely smart people, so before Li Chengqi finished speaking, everyone already understood what he meant, and immediately rushed to the stone walls on all sides, quickly wiping off the dust on the stone walls, leaving the murals and stone carvings
Show your true colors.
As Mingzhu wiped the stone wall, she was secretly worried, because these murals were so complicated that she was dazzled by them, and she couldn't see clearly what was on them, let alone the hidden meanings.
"But where is the method to break the curse written?" Mingzhu shouted out in desperation.
Yan was rubbing the stone wall not far from her and said in a deep voice:
"Mingzhu, you are so concerned that you are confused. Think about it, when our ancestors carved these stone carvings, they did not know that their children and grandchildren would be cursed, so these reliefs should be traps and traps set up to protect the dragon veins.
Security. It’s not a code word or anything like that.”
"That makes sense." Li Chengqi also came over, "So, I think the dragon vein is not just such a simple place. There must be another mystery. As long as we find a certain mechanism, we can open another hidden cave.
.And all the secrets and energy of the dragon vein should be in that hidden cave."
After hearing Li Chengqi's analysis, everyone was impressed and quickly acted according to his words.
Yan and Mingzhu were not good at things like Qimen Dunjia, so they took the initiative to clean up the walls and asked Liehu and Li Chengqi to study the complicated patterns on the stone walls.
The shouts of killing outside became more intense and became a mess. Mingzhu was worried about Wangyounu and Lizi, so she always tried to distinguish the screams and shouts coming from outside. But the sound was too noisy.
, she couldn't distinguish anything.
Suddenly, Yan grabbed Mingzhu's hand tightly. Mingzhu was anxious about the situation outside. Suddenly she was caught by Yan. She was shocked and blurted out:
"What did you find?"
Mingzhu looked up at Yan, only to see Yan staring at her closely, his eyes like the sea at noon, blue and deep.
"Yan, what's wrong?"
"Mingzhu, you can't do this. You are the heir of the Fang family and the most important person here. You have to concentrate! I know that you care about those people outside, and so do I, but the only thing we can do to help them now is
Just quickly find a way to activate the energy of the dragon vein and destroy the demon."
Mingzhu understood what Yan was thinking, and she nodded:
"I know, I was distracted, let's start now."
Mingzhu collected her thoughts and began to concentrate on looking at the carvings on the stone wall. She saw Xie Hu and Li Chengqi trying according to the rules of various secret rooms they had mastered, but to no avail. She also followed their example and pulled the button here.
, click there.
However, Qimen Dunjia is inherently a profound knowledge, and it requires many years of careful study and research to master some superficial knowledge. It is basically useless to imitate cats and tigers like Mingzhu.
Suddenly, Mingzhu was attracted by a mural. It was a relief. Ordinary people might not be able to see what the people in the painting were doing. But Mingzhu could see that it was a complete scene of making jewelry.
.From the initial selection of jewelry to polishing, quenching, inlaying and polishing, every step is recorded.
It would be normal for such a painting to appear elsewhere in the Fang family, because after all, the ancestors of the Fang family were masters in making jewelry. But this is the Dragon Vein of the Tang Dynasty, and this kind of commemoration of the Fang family should not appear here.
Relief of everyday life.
"What are the contents of the murals you saw?" Mingzhu suddenly asked.
Although several other people didn't know why she asked such a question, they still answered one after another:
"Scenes of war."
"Farming."
"Meetings in the court."
Everyone told what they saw. Mingzhu's mind was spinning quickly:
"In other words, all the murals here reflect the situation of Anbang governing the country?"
Li Chengqi thought for a while:
"Only when you said that did I realize that this is really the case. But think about it, where the dragon veins are located, these things should indeed be painted."
Mingzhu stared thoughtfully at the relief in front of her and said word by word:
"If this is the case, then the secret should be in this painting."
The other three people were shocked and gathered around her:
"Are you sure?"
"Definitely, because this painting shouldn't appear here. It's abnormal, just to attract other people's attention. And unless they are people who are proficient in jewelry making, other people can't see what they are doing." Mingzhu pointed one by one with her fingers.
Scratch those reliefs.
Everyone looked along the direction of her fingers one by one. Indeed, jewelry making is different from other crafts. It means that one person sits in front of the table and plays with some very small things. And because they are all carved out of white stone, it is even more complicated.
You can't tell what they are holding in their hands.
"Is this really the process of making jewelry?" Li Chengqi asked.
"It's absolutely true. Don't talk, let me take a good look and think about it." Mingzhu's voice was very soft, and she was completely immersed in observation and thinking.
'If you want to be a good jewelry designer, the first thing you need to do is to observe that every piece of jewelry has its own unique characteristics. Ordinary people cannot see this characteristic, but jewelry designers must see it. Look.
Regardless of its characteristics, it is just a jewel. Once it can be seen and discovered, it will become a treasure, even a rare treasure!" Her mother's words echoed in her ears.
‘Find the characteristics of jewelry,’ Mingzhu murmured. But what kind of jewelry is this?
'Making jewelry is just like building a high-rise building. The foundation is the most important. And jewelry is the foundation of a piece of jewelry. Without good jewelry, there will be no good jewelry. Therefore, jewelry is like a high-rise building standing on the surface of the earth. Everything is beautiful.
Let it be displayed. Whether this high-rise building will ultimately succeed or not depends on the skill of the designer. This is what my mother said back then.
"You are the foundation," Mingzhu stroked the small piece of jewelry on the relief with her fingers, "So, it doesn't matter what you are, because you are the foundation and are buried deep underground." Mingzhu touched the second one again.
In the second painting, the craftsman frowned slightly and held the jewelry with his fingers, seeming to be thinking about something. Of course he was thinking about the most perfect plan that could best showcase the beauty of the jewelry.
"So, the answer lies with you!" Mingzhu's hand fell heavily on the last relief. A finished product had already appeared on this relief - an earring with a very unique shape. The earrings must be in pairs.
Yes, there is only one here, which means it must have a deeper meaning.
'So, what is its deep meaning?' The pattern that should not appear, the single earring. The earring. Mingzhu thought hard. Seeing her paying so much attention to the relief, Xie Hu and Li Chengqi also came over.
Checked carefully here, but they didn't find anything.
‘Did we think wrong?’ Everyone couldn’t help but start to think this way.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Mingzhu's mind. She raised the dagger in her hand and made a cut in the middle of the earring, because she discovered that this earring looked beautiful, but if it was divided into two, it would be broken.
It will become a very unique pair of earrings that are the same but inconsistent.
Therefore, she wanted to try what would happen if she threw them away. According to common sense, with Mingzhu's strength and skill, it would be difficult to use a dagger to cut through such a hard rock. But Mingzhu's knife
With just a slight scratch on the stone wall, the stone wall cracked bit by bit. The cracks got bigger and bigger, and a stone door suddenly appeared in front of everyone. Mingzhu finally knew the entrance to the second secret room!
Almost at the same time, I heard an explosion behind me, and then Mingzhu heard a string of laughter like a night owl. This laughter was so familiar, although Mingzhu had only heard it once in her dream, but it was
Already unforgettable:
"Qian Kongtian!" Mingzhu turned her head. It seemed that Qian Kongtian used some kind of magic to collapse the entrance of the dragon vein and broke in.
Qian Kongtian laughed loudly:
"I came at the right time. You have found the real dragon vein, and everything here belongs to me!"
Enemies were extremely jealous when they saw each other. When Mingzhu saw Qian Kongtian, she remembered the torture that the Fang family had suffered for generations. She could no longer control herself and was about to charge forward with a dagger.
But Hunting Fox's movements turned out to be much faster than hers, and he roared:
"Devil, I will die with you today." As he spoke, Hunting Fox pounced on him.
At the same time, an unknown person pushed Mingzhu hard and said:
"Leave this place to us, and you go inside to find a way to save the Fang family."
Mingzhu stumbled and fell into the door, while the other three were fighting with Qian Kongtian.
Mingzhu calmed down and looked around. This place was completely different from the outside. There were not so many gorgeous carvings. It was just a dark stone cave. The usually cracked stone wall had a little light source. The stone cave
It was empty with nothing inside.
Mingzhu's heart was full of panic and disappointment. If they judged wrong and this was not the real dragon vein, then they would all be doomed. She was not afraid of death, but if they all died here, the Fang family would never be able to escape the curse.
Hope.
Suddenly, Mingzhu saw that the color of the stone wall on one side was different from other places. She went over and took a look, and it turned out that there was a stone tablet inlaid on the wall. Mingzhu's heart was moved, because her ancestors told her that Nishang Yuyi was the symbol of the
A stone tablet appeared together, could it be this stone tablet?
Mingzhu took out the colorful feather coat and put it on the stone tablet. Nothing happened. Just when she was about to despair completely, suddenly, the colorful feather coat glowed with dazzling brilliance. At this moment, it was no longer a piece of clothing, but a piece of clothing.
It turned into thousands of rays of rays of light. The rays of light circled in the travertine, as if they had gathered huge power and were eager to be released.
Mingzhu knew that she had done the right thing, but she didn't know how to control this power. She was really afraid that because of her delay, this power would be wasted in this dim cave stone, and she would not be able to exert it.
have no effect.
At this moment, Mingzhu felt her eyes blur, and a figure appeared. When she took a closer look, she turned out to be the ancestor of the Fang family. Mingzhu exclaimed:
"It's you. Could it be that I've entered a dream again?"
"No, it's not a dream now," the ancestor replied calmly, "Mingzhu, you did a good job. You found the real dragon vein and activated the power of the dragon vein. I relied on this energy to obtain the real body, and then I can truly
Helped you."
"So, you are resurrected?" Mingzhu was extremely surprised.
"How can a person be resurrected after death?" the ancestor replied, "I only had a real body for a short period of time, and after this period of time, I couldn't even hold on to that lone soul."
"Ah? What should we do?" Mingzhu was anxious.
The ancestors were very open-minded:
"Death is like a lamp going out. Lone souls should not exist in the first place. However, I survived against the will of heaven to help the Fang family survive this disaster. Now that the disaster is over, I have no other worries."
"What about dragon veins?"
"Dragon Veins are powerful. I have done everything I should do. After this battle, no one will covet the Dragon Veins anymore, so they can be well preserved until they are replaced by new Dragon Veins."
"Oh, that's right."
"Okay Mingzhu, it's getting late, I'll take you back." The ancestor said.
"Where are you sending me back?" Mingzhu wondered.
"Send you home, back to your parents. You don't belong here, you have to go."
Mingzhu was shocked:
"Now that I'm gone, what will happen to those people outside?"
"Don't worry, I'm going to help them. The energy of the dragon vein has been activated, and Qian Kongtian is dead."
"Get rid of the devil first and then I leave, can't you?" Mingzhu asked.
"No, I need the power of the dragon vein to send you away. If it's too late, I'm afraid this power won't be able to send you away." The ancestor spoke faster and faster, and it seemed that he was really anxious.
"What about Homura?"
"There's no time, Mingzhu, be obedient, everything will be according to God's will!"
This was the last sentence Mingzhu heard in the Tang Dynasty. She only remembered that after her ancestor said these words, he pushed the glow in the cave. The glow surrounded Mingzhu, and Mingzhu suddenly seemed to fall into an unusually soft world.
In the unusually void space, her whole body became limp and she could not exert any strength. Moreover, all her movements became slow and she could not hear any sounds.
She turned back and glanced in the direction of Shimen, and seemed to see Xie Hu, Li Chengqi, and Yan, but she didn't seem to see anything clearly. Then Mingzhu knew nothing.
When she opened her eyes again, she saw the faces of Fang Qianhua and Master Zhong:
"Dad, Mom," Mingzhu exclaimed and sat up, "I'm back? This is Qingcheng Mountain?"
"Yes, you are finally back. This is Qingcheng Mountain. It's great that you can come back safely." Fang Qianhua burst into tears with joy.
"Has the curse of the Fang family been lifted?" Mingzhu asked.
Master Zhong nodded:
"I used the exercise method to calculate and it should be lifted."
Mingzhu looked at Fang Qianhua carefully. Sure enough, although Fang Qianhua's face was covered with tears at this time, her face was plump and rosy as never before, and her eyes were clear as never before. It seemed that she was really different.
.
"Where is Yan? Where is he?" Mingzhu asked again.
Fang Qianhua and Master Zhong looked at each other, and Master Zhong said hesitantly:
"He hasn't appeared yet."
"What? Why hasn't it appeared yet?" Mingzhu was anxious.
"Mingzhu, don't worry too much. I think Yan will be fine. Maybe you are just a few days away from returning. If you wait a few more days, he will be back." Master Zhong consoled him.
Mingzhu leaned weakly on the bed, no longer having the strength to speak.
The ancestor said that if he came back too late, Nishang Yuyi's power might not be enough to send him back. Then would Yan not be able to come back? He would stay in the Tang Dynasty forever?
Mingzhu felt that her heart was empty. She said to herself over and over again:
'No, Yan will come back. Our ancestors said that we cannot stay in the Tang Dynasty. We must come back, otherwise it will affect the course of history.'
This sentence has become the last belief that supports her.
In the next period of time, Yan never appeared, and Mingzhu was thinking about Datang every moment.
'Has Qian Kongtian been eliminated? Has the crisis in the Tang Dynasty been resolved? Are Brother Fox, Sister Wangyou, and Lizi still safe? Did Li Chengqi return to Chang'an with his colorful clothes?' These thoughts
It always comes down to one thing in the end, 'Homura, where are you? What's wrong with you?'
Every time she thought about the end, Mingzhu would burst into tears. She cared about those people so much that she really wanted to go back to the Tang Dynasty and see them again.
"Ancestor, you just sent me back like this. Didn't you save me? This kind of life is too tortured." Mingzhu cried and told the darkness. She really hoped that some god could see her.
In pain, hear her prayers and come to help her.
Tang Dynasty, Chang'an.
Li Longji was shocked when he saw Li Chengqi suddenly appearing in front of him:
"Brother, you are back!"
Li Chengqi's face was a little haggard, but his eyes were still so deep and lively. He nodded and let out a long breath:
"I'm back. The Dragon Vein matter has been completely resolved." As he spoke, he took out a box and handed it to Li Longji, "This is the colorful feather coat. You must put it away. The Dragon Veins of the Tang Dynasty are all
It has everything to do with it.”
"Don't worry, brother." Li Longji took the box and said, "Brother, you gave me the crown prince position in the first place so that you could find Dragon Vein with peace of mind. Now that everything has been resolved, you still have to be the crown prince.
Take it."
Li Chengqi shook his head:
"No, I still have very important things to do."
"But brother..."
"You should stop arguing about this matter. I really have something important to do."
Li Longji also saw that Li Chengqi was a little absent-minded, so he asked:
"Brother, is there any other crisis? Tell me and we will find a solution together."
Li Chengqi shook his head:
"No, it has nothing to do with the country of the Tang Dynasty. It is my own business. When I return to Chang'an this time, I will first bring back the colorful clothes and feathers, and then arrange a few things, and then I will go on a long trip."
"Where are you going on a long trip?"
"Wandering around the world."
"Ah?" Li Longji didn't understand for a moment, "Brother is saying that you want to live a free life and don't want to be bound by the throne? That's fine, you just go wandering around. If there is anything you need me to do, I will send someone to notify you at any time.
I’ll be fine.”
Seeing that there was really no way to deal with Li Longji, Li Chengqi had no choice but to say:
"Third brother, originally I didn't want to tell my true thoughts. Since you really can't trust me, I won't hide it from you. Frankly speaking, I want to find Mingzhu."
"Mingzhu? Where is she?"
"She has returned to her hometown and left Datang." Li Chengqi replied calmly.
"What?" Li Longji exclaimed. He couldn't accept this fact at all. "She left? This is impossible?"
"She is indeed gone, really. I saw it with my own eyes." Li Chengqi's voice was very calm, and it seemed that he was calm after experiencing immense pain.
"Then when will she come back?" Li Longji asked again.
"She's not coming back."
"But she came back last time!"
"That's because she wants to return Nishang Yuyi. She didn't take anything with her this time, so she doesn't have to come back." Li Chengqi replied.
"No, she must come back!" Li Longji yelled. The fact that Mingzhu would never appear again deeply stimulated him. He could not accept it and refused to accept it.
Li Chengqi suddenly laughed:
"She and we are living in two worlds. She can no longer hear your wishes and words."
Li Longji only felt that he was surrounded by a deep sense of powerlessness, layer after layer, making him unable to break free.
"Although I now own the entire country, I can't get a woman." Li Longji's heart was filled with despair. For the first time in his life, he felt that the weight of the pearl exceeded the entire country!
"Brother, can you find her? I want to go too. I want to find her too. I can't live without her." Li Longji murmured.
Li Chengqi smiled leisurely:
"Do you really think so? If you go, you will never come back."
"I want to come back with Mingzhu!" Li Longji replied decisively.
"But this is impossible. I can give up this opportunity to find Mingzhu and let you find her. However, I have no way to help you bring her back. I can't do it myself, so I
Said, I want to leave forever."
"Then I will live with her in her world." Li Longji said.
Li Chengqi laughed again:
"You don't want to be the emperor anymore, and you don't want the country anymore?"
Facing Li Chengqi's understanding smile, Li Longji really wanted to say loudly:
'I don't want it anymore, I just want the pearl!'
But when the words came to his lips, he realized that these words were heavier than a mountain and he couldn't say them at all.
After a while, Li Chengqi patted his shoulder gently:
"Okay, third brother, I know that you are sincere to Mingzhu, but what you love most in your heart is the country. And what I love most in my heart is Mingzhu. For her, I can give up everything I have now, and I am willing to do so.
to live in that strange world.”
Li Longji slumped down on the chair. Li Chengqi was right. He really couldn't let go of everything he had, but he also wanted to get the pearl. What should he do?
"Third brother, be a good emperor. You will be a good emperor. Without the support of Qian Kongtian, Princess Taiping and the forces of the Wu family will not be scary. You have taken care of them all. I believe that we
Under your leadership, Datang will enter a truly prosperous age."
After Li Chengqi finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. Li Longji stopped him:
"Brother, are you just leaving like this?"
"I still have a few things to do. After I finish them, I will leave directly without saying goodbye to you, so as not to add to the sadness."
Li Chengqi floated away. When he was far away, Li Longji couldn't control it anymore. He overturned the table and smashed the entire study to pieces. In the end, the only thing intact in the study was the pearl.
That chrysanthemum hairpin I made earlier!
Li Longji held the chrysanthemum hairpin tightly, and the hairpin stung his palms. After a long time, two big tears flowed out from the corners of Li Longji's eyes:
'Mingzhu, I finally lost you...'
Li Chengqi came to the imperial mausoleum and paid homage to Zhongzong. After laying out the tributes, he faced the mausoleum and said softly:
"Uncle Huang, I'm here to visit you. This time, I'm here to visit you on behalf of your goddaughter Mingzhu. Mingzhu has returned to her hometown and will no longer be able to visit you here. But don't worry, she will always be here.
She will never forget you, and in her world, she will also think of visiting you often."
After leaving the imperial mausoleum, Li Chengqi had only one last thing to do, he wanted to meet someone. Just like coming to the imperial mausoleum to worship, this person was not asked by Mingzhu to meet him, but he wanted to see him.
Because he always had a feeling of sympathy for that person, and that person was Wang Wei.
Facing Wang Wei, Li Chengqi sincerely felt that he was lucky, because he knew that Wang Wei was also deeply in love with Mingzhu, but he would never have the chance to see Mingzhu again, and he still had the opportunity to go to Mingzhu's side.
.
"Your Majesty, what do you want to see me for?" Wang Wei couldn't help asking when he saw that Li Chengqi had been silent for too long.
Li Chengqi thought for a moment before saying:
"Originally, I just wanted to say a few words to you briefly, but after seeing you, I changed my mind, because you are also a very wise person, so I think you can understand everything that happened.
Everything.”
Li Chengqi began to tell the story in detail, from the founding of the Tang Dynasty, to the tragic experience of the Fang family, from the first return of Mingzhu, to their adventures and adventures in Dragon Vein.
When Li Chengqi finished telling all this, Wang Wei was completely stunned. It took a long time before he spoke:
"So, that's it."
"Yes," Li Chengqi nodded, "I know your feelings for Mingzhu, so I feel it is necessary to tell you all these things."
"Now, the Pearl has left?" Wang Wei asked blankly.
"I left and will never come back." Li Chengqi replied.
Wang Wei nodded numbly:
"I see."
Li Chengqi looked at this talented man who was proud of his talent and felt that his soul no longer existed. Suddenly, Li Chengqi felt a little regretful:
"It seems I shouldn't tell you this." Li Chengqi said.
Wang Wei shook his head:
"No, you should tell me. In this way, I will at least know where Mingzhu went and how I can find her."
"What do you want to do?" Li Chengqi asked in surprise.
Wang Wei smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"Actually, I won't do anything. It's just like, if a person has a dream in his heart, he always hopes to be closer to the dream." Wang Wei stood up, "Your Majesty, no matter what, I am grateful.
You told me this." As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Li Chengqi.
Indeed, since then, Wang Wei has lived a semi-official and semi-hidden life. He has lived alone for thirty years and has never taken a wife or a concubine. He studied Buddhism intensively and studied many things that the ancients could not understand at all.
No one knew what he was studying. In fact, he just wanted to find a way to the future so that he could find the pearl. But he failed in the end. After countless attempts and countless failures, he wrote
A large number of otherworldly poems.
Countless descendants have studied Wang Wei's poems and paintings. People cannot understand why this talented man who has been astonishingly talented since he was a teenager always contains such sadness in his poems and paintings that makes people cry.
In fact, it was just because he had a dream in his heart, and there was a woman in the dream.
After Li Chengqi finished these things, he returned to the Dragon Vein. After that fierce battle, the outside of the Dragon Vein was completely destroyed. Li Chengqi took advantage of the situation and buried the Dragon Vein in the yellow sand. He believed in the words of the Fang family ancestors - the Dragon Vein also had
As for Qi Shuo, let everything go according to God's will.
Li Chengqi walked on the ruins of Dragon Vein, thinking about what happened the last time he came here.
He deceived everyone. In fact, the ancestor left alone did not tell him anything about the Li Dynasty, but about him and Yan.
"My lord, there is one thing that I must tell you alone. Yan is destined to die in the dragon's veins," the ancestor said.
"Ah, why?" Li Chengqi exclaimed.
"No one can violate fate." The ancestor replied.
"But, he shouldn't die. Now that we know, we can protect him, or I can take his place..." Li Chengqi was panicking. His feelings for Yan were sincere, and he didn't want anything to happen to Yan.
The ancestor shook his head heavily:
"It's useless. This is God's will. He is the patron saint. The patron saint needs to sacrifice his life. No one can die for him."
"Then, what can I do?" Li Chengqi was at a loss.
"I left you here just to tell you this. Mingzhu must leave Datang. This is God's will. If you are willing to follow Mingzhu, I will give you a chance."
"what chance?"
"Let your soul enter Yan's body and go back for him..." Before the ancestor could finish speaking, Li Chengqi shouted:
"This is absolutely impossible. Although I love Mingzhu, I can never do such a thing!"
The ancestor shook his head:
"You misunderstood. Yan will definitely die. Your choice is to stay in the Tang Dynasty and be the prince, or to go to the world of Mingzhu and accompany him as Yan. Your decision has nothing to do with Yan's life or death.
.Do you understand it?"
Li Chengqi understood and nodded:
"I know, I will try my best to protect Huan. Maybe he won't die at all."
This is what Li Chengqi said and what he did. He has been deliberately protecting Yan. In fact, Yan has always survived. But when everything calmed down, Yan suddenly fell. Just as the ancestor said
Just like that - the patron saint sacrificed his life. At the end of Yan's life, he smiled at Li Chengqi:
