On Wuming Island, near the North Island, there is a group of buildings similar to temples, with a total of thirteen floors, all made of stone, simple and magnificent, it is the elders' house of the Tana people.
The Presbyterian House is located on Wuming Mountain. From the first tower to the thirteenth tower, it reaches the top of the mountain. Standing on the highest floor of the tower, overlooking the entire island, you can have a panoramic view of most of the scenery.
"Young Master Ming, can you see the light on the top? It gathers one hundred and eight top-quality night pearls to emit such a powerful light. When our ship gets lost on the island, as long as we find this green light, Then we can return.”
Ji Mingxiu raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the Great Elder's finger. He really saw the green light on the top of the tower, like a piece of luminous emerald, clear and bright.
He sincerely praised: "It's the first time in my life to see such a beautiful spectacle, it's a must."
The Great Elder was very confident in the building of the Elder's House, he knew how shocking his lamp was without needing to praise it, but after being praised by Young Master Ming, for some reason, his heart still couldn't restrain a layer of joy.
His eyes fell on Ji Mingxiu. At his age, he had already passed the stage of judging people by their appearance, but some people were born to be different from ordinary people. It was an aura emanating from their bones.
The Great Elder has never felt this kind of power from anyone.
"Elder?" Ji Mingxiu gently reminded the elder when he saw the elder staring at him in a daze.
The Great Elder regained his consciousness and smiled self-deprecatingly. At his age, there are people who can't understand, even He Zhuo, it's like a book in front of him. He only needs to read it patiently. He can know He Zhuo's inner thoughts, but this young man, he can't see through him.
Gathering his thoughts, the Great Elder said: "Young Master Ming came here to look up the books at the order of Dolma. I don't know what aspect you want to read?"
Ji Mingxiu said: "I want to pick up a few books in every field so that little Dolma can learn."
The relationship between Ji Mingxiu and Qiao Wei, apart from Sena's family, is only known by He Zhuo and the group of Saintess Hall. This time, he entered the Elder's House as a guard.
The Great Elder said: "Little Dolma doesn't quite understand our language, does she? Would you like to ask Mr. to teach her?"
Ji Mingxiu said politely: "No need, I know a thing or two, so I can teach you."
The Great Elder was amazed, "Master Ming...how did he understand our language?" Although their accents were similar, their writing styles were completely different.
Of course Ji Mingxiu would not tell him that he learned it after coming here, so he said, "Dolma left some Tana books when he was in the Central Plains earlier, and I was lucky enough to read some."
The Great Elder seemed to have an epiphany: "Young Master Ming is really talented."
The two talked for a while, then boarded the thirteenth stone building. The Great Elder pressed the switch, and the heavy stone door slowly moved to the sides. Mingxiu entered the stone building.
The temperature inside is a little lower than the outside, and it's a little cooler.
The first floor is an empty hall. The Great Elder married Ye Mingzhu's cane from the door, as if holding a torch, he led Ji Mingxiu to the end and up the stairs.
When they reached the second floor, the two felt as if they were in a vast sea of books.
Ji's library has a collection of nearly ten thousand books, including paper, silk, and bamboo slips. Bamboo slips take up more space. A book can often be written on a box of bamboo slips. There are hundreds of bookshelves, but here, it is as big as ten Ji family's library.
The Great Elder said proudly: "When we moved here, we didn't bring any gold, silver, cloth or silk with us. Only this book was kept. The priest said that the Tana people can throw away everything, but cannot inherit it. Before the nameless island , We Tana people have moved seven times in total, and have not lost a single book. See the grass knots over there? That is the writing written by our ancestors. However, the real grass knots have rotted, and these are imitations restored to its original form.”
Ji Mingxiu picked up a straw knot and looked at it: "It's well restored."
Of course it's good, this was imitated by him himself, the great elder felt comfortable all over, and unconsciously had a smile on his face: "In addition to political affairs, the most important job of our Elder's House is to protect and continue the inheritance of the Tana people. But how do you know it's good?"
Ji Mingxiu put the grass knot back to its original place: "My family also has a lot of books, some from the Central Plains and some from foreign countries. From ancient times to the present, things from all over the world have been dabbled in."
The Great Elder frowned: "Are you really just an ordinary guard?"
Ji Mingxiu calmly said: "Of course not, how can ordinary guards accompany little Dolma?"
The elder felt that there was something in the other party's words.
Ji Mingxiu roamed the sea of books for a while, and found that most of the bookshelves were full, except for the innermost rows.
He asked inexplicably, "Great Elder, why are there so few books there?"
Speaking of this, the Great Elder sighed long and hard: "Speaking of which, it is also our family's misfortune. When we moved to Wuming Island, we were chased and killed by the imperial court. A ship sank into the bottom of the sea. Afterwards, the priest went to sea to search for the things in the master’s hall, but he couldn’t find them. These books were written by the priest based on his memory, but unfortunately he passed away without writing much.”
Ji Mingxiu stepped forward, picked up a roll of bamboo slips, and read: "'Everything has its own way, the right way, the evil way, the crooked way, the devil way...'"
The Great Elder looked at him in surprise: "Can you understand Ye Luowen?"
Ji Mingxiu was also a little surprised: "Is this Ye Luowen?"
The Great Elder said: "That's right, but since the death of the priest, no one in the clan understands Ye Luowen anymore, and even our Elder's House has only interpreted a very rare part."
Ji Mingxiu said: "My family has quite a few books in this language, but I never knew it was Ye Luowen."
Ji Mingxiu of the Yeluo Kingdom has also heard of it. It is rumored that before the Tianqi Dynasty unified the world, there was a very powerful tribe. Some people in the tribe were born with supernatural powers, and some were talented. Its unique strength subdued one hundred and eight tribes in Beizhou and formed them into the Yeluo Kingdom.
Afterwards, the ambition of the monarch of the Yeluo Kingdom grew, and he began to conquer Kyushu, and finally established the Tianqi Dynasty.
There are two languages prevailing in the dynasty, one of which is Yeluowen, but as time goes by, fewer and fewer people can speak Yeluowen, and finally only the Tana tribe remains, but the Tana tribe has also been eliminated. The assimilation of the Central Plains was severe, and the people who said Yeluo Wen became rare day by day, and finally only the lineage of priests remained.
After that, the priest was gone, and Ye Luowen completely faded out of the sight of the Tana people.
The Great Elder looked at the sparse rows of bookshelves, and lamented: "I suddenly became very curious about the collection of books in Mr. Ming's house. Unfortunately, the Central Plains is too far away, and we can't get out of this island. Otherwise, I really want to go to Mr. Ming's house in my lifetime." have a look."
Go out and see the world.
Ji Mingxiu looked at him and said very seriously: "There will always be a chance. I believe that your little Dolma will definitely be able to take you out of this island."
The Great Elder smiled bitterly: "I hope so."
He said so, but he didn't have any hope in his heart. His ancestors had been trapped on the island for hundreds of years, and no one could really get out. He was as powerful as Dolma, and he returned after five years.
This is where they live, and if they leave here, they will wither day by day like the vegetation that has left the sun.
Ji Mingxiu flipped through several books: "Great Elder, can I take them back to read?"
The Great Elder said sincerely: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Ming, you can take away other books, but these are the last words of the priest. If they are damaged, even I can't restore them. I hope Mr. Ming is here. Browse around."
"good."
That night, Ji Mingxiu stayed in Zangshu Pavilion.
…
However, after Yan Feijue was slapped, he suffered internal injuries and was buried under the ruins, vomiting blood wildly.
In He Lanqing's dictionary, there is no such thing as mercy, this slap almost killed half of Yan Feijue, Yan Feijue was considered to have deep internal strength, but he was beaten so weak that he was buried in the ground. Under the ruins, blood was spat out.
Yi Qianyin was dumbfounded. He had heard that a disciple of the Yin clan had wiped out a sect in the Central Plains. He didn't believe it, but now that he saw He Lanqing's skill, he didn't have the slightest doubt.
He Lan's red lips curled up: "Who else wants to save her?"
Yi Qianyin shook her head like a rattle!
Ji Wushuang's throat slipped. Although he never wanted to save Xue Rongrong, he didn't like the feeling of being protested by others, so he decided to ignore He Lanqing!
"You?" He Lanqing looked at him, as if a coquettish devilish energy burst out from his whole body.
Ji Wushuang immediately straightened her body, stood up, and said loudly: "No!"
Qiao Wei laughed hahahaha. This arrogant old rooster always has eyes on the top of her head. When I saw her, her nose was not a nose, and her eyes were not eyes. I never thought that there would be a day when I was frightened like this.
Seeing her daughter's smile, He Lanqing was overjoyed, leaned close to Qiao Wei's ear and said, "My dear daughter, if you like it, mother will scare him every day!"
Ji Wushuang is not well...
…
Qiao Wei said: "Mom, I'll talk about that person later, first think about how to deal with this Xibei product, I hate her so much!"
The person her daughter hates is her enemy. He Lanqing squinted her eyes dangerously, and crushed the sole of her foot, breaking a rib of the woman, and the woman trembled in pain.
"Kill it." He Lan said.
The woman has already fallen into their hands at this moment, and it is impossible to live, probably because she guessed that she would die, but when she heard He Lanqing's words, she didn't feel much fear.
"How to kill?" Qiao Wei asked.
He Lanqing looked thoughtful: "Behead?"
The woman thought to herself, beheading is all it takes, the pain will disappear after a while, what is there to be afraid of
Qiao Wei frowned: "Not happy."
"The car cracked?" He Lanqing asked.
The woman's eyelashes trembled, although the car crack was painful, but if the head fell off, there would be no pain, and it was not... so terrible.
He Lanqing's eyes lit up: "Mother thought about it, peel the skin. Mother peeled the skin, and you can put some cotton in it, it's exactly the same as before."
The woman's heart trembled violently!
Qiao Wei asked seriously: "Mom, have you ever picked it up?"
He Lanqing recalled: "I haven't peeled the human skin, but I have peeled a lot of animal skins. It's not bad to practice with her. If you hate anyone in the future, mother will peel it for you! It's beautiful! It's cold, It can also be worn as a dress!"
The woman's body trembled.
"Where should I pick it?" He Lanqing said, squatting down, and touched her forehead with her fingertips.
Qiao Wei said vividly: "Mother, if you cut it from the head, this face will be ruined. You have to cut it from the back. It only hurts the skin, not the flesh. Such a gentle push!"
The woman rolled her eyes and fainted from fright!
Qiao Wei gave her a disgusted look: "I can't stand it like this, and I still think you are so bold!"
At this time, the maid outside the door came in: "Little Dolma, please see Master Sena."
Senna Eagle? he woke up
Qiao Wei went to the small garden to meet Senna Eagle: "Sena Eagle, what happened after you and Yi Qianyin went to Feiyu Town? Why did you suddenly go crazy?"
Senna Eagle said: "I will talk about this matter with Little Dolma later. I have another matter when I come today."
"What's the matter?" Qiao Wei asked.
Senna Ying said seriously: "I found a corpse by the seaside. It looked like someone Xiao Zhuoma knew, and I wanted to ask Xiao Zhuoma and Yan Feijue to identify it together."
Someone she knows? Aren't everyone she knows in Helanbao
Qiao Wei was puzzled in her heart, but quickly responded on her face: "Yan Feijue was seriously injured and couldn't go, I will go with you."
Senna Eagle paused, and said slowly: "It's best... let Yan Fei go."
