"Wait." Suddenly Meng Yunfei held down Gou Chenjian, "That's not the real Fahua Xianzun."
Yuchixiao stared at Gong Weiyi and dared not move: "He is! Look at what is embroidered on his body!"
Gold is one of the important raw materials for Juzong to smelt various organs. Therefore, the Xianmeng stipulates that Xuanmen families should not hide a large amount of gold. In addition, there are only "one gate, two respects and three schools" - that is, Xu Shuangce and Wu Yuanzun in Cangyang Mountain. Ying Kai, Fahua Zun Gongwei, and Jianzong Yuchi Changsheng, Yizong Mu Duozhu, and Juzong Zhang Sun Chengfeng can use gold thread to embroider family patterns on the school uniforms of their disciples to identify their identities. Only disciples who are directly descended from the direct line are allowed.
The four sages, six schools and eight sects below this, such as Meng Yunfei, the direct disciple of Lesheng, most embroidered on their robes were silver thread.
This is not a hard and fast rule, and besides the formal school uniform, no one actually cares what clothes to wear in private. But the woven golden red maple in front of me is too iconic. Even if I haven't seen it myself, I can hear a thing or two from the various Fahua Xianzun stories that are popular in the streets and alleys of the people. The second thought.
"...No, I'm not saying you were mistaken." Meng Yunfei also stared at Gong Wei, gritted his teeth and whispered, "He is the man in the mirror!"
A word that awakened the dreamer, not only Yuchixiao, but also Gong Wei suddenly realized: Yes, this is Xu Shuangce's conscious world, I'm just a projection reflected from his memory, it makes perfect sense!
Gong Wei blinked and stood still, looking at them calmly.
"The person in the mirror has no self-awareness and will only act on a fixed trajectory. As long as he doesn't provoke it, he won't take the initiative to attack outsiders." Meng Yunfei slammed Gou Chenjian back into the sheath, forcing himself to turn his head nonchalantly, and motioned to Yuchixiao. He also looked away and said, "Don't stare at him, don't make him feel aggressive... Very well, you can see that he no longer pays attention to us."
Yuchixiao glanced out of the corner of his eyes, and sure enough, he saw "Fahua Xianzun" standing there for a while, silently tilting his head and thinking about something, and then slowly paced a few steps away, standing by the beach with his back to them. , looking at the village with green smoke curling in the distance.
In this period, the Fahua Immortal Venerable did not have any hair yet, and the fine hair tips just covered the neck, black and white, and the skin on the back of the neck seemed to be slightly glowing. According to folklore, the Fahua Xianzun walks under the moon at night, and his whole body is shining brightly, and he seems to be able to dissolve into the moonlight. The crimson robe with the inner snow satin outlines his thin and light body, with an indescribable youthful look.
This is actually very inconsistent, because the actual age of Fahua Xianzun is actually not that young. The Xuanmen scroll records that he was fifteen or sixteen years old when he was brought into the Xianmeng by Ying Kai for the first time.
He seems to be an existence walking through the years alone. No matter how many years have passed, he is as innocent and curious as a child, and he maintains a very cautious and delicate distance from the world.
Yuchixiao retracted his gaze, even though he knew that what he saw was just a phantom, he still had a sense of absurdity of life and death, and asked in a low voice, "We are in Sect Master Xu's most feared consciousness? How can we get out?"
There is relatively more research on illusion under Le Shengmen, Meng Yunfei thought about it and said: "Generally, there are only two ways to break through the realm. The first is to try to make the realm master realize that this is an illusion... But it is more difficult, and I don't know where to find Xu. Sovereign to go. The second is to resolve the core of the illusion, for example, to make the disaster that was destined to happen no longer. As long as the landlord realizes that the development of the tragedy is different from his memory, he can realize that everything is an illusion. "
Saying that, he stood up and patted the dust, frowning and looking around: "But this village looks very peaceful, it doesn't look like any disaster is about to happen?"
Gong Wei's mouth twitched slightly, thinking that the two young heroes didn't know something, and the epic disaster was already halfway through...
"The village." Suddenly Yuchixiao murmured thoughtfully, raised his eyes to look at the farmers in the distance, and abruptly said, "—the village!"
Meng Yunfei: "What?"
Yuchixiao pulled his feet and ran to the village head: "This place is wrong!"
Before Meng Yunfei could react, he ran after him subconsciously. When he arrived at the head of the village, he saw a stone tablet standing under the peach blossom tree, with three big characters engraved, "Taoyuan Village!"
"Broken!" Yuchixiao's face changed greatly: "—"Nian Nujiao", this plot is "Nian Nujiao"!"
Meng Yunfei thought he had heard it wrong, and asked stunned: "It was Sect Master Xu who met a farmer's daughter in Taoyuan Village, fell in love at first sight, fell in love again, and was destined for three lives, is it the Nian Nujiao who she doesn't marry?"
Yu Chixiao covered his face with his hands and nodded.
"Then Fahua Xianzun suddenly arrived and killed the bride with a sword at the wedding. Sect Master Xu was distraught, and finally gave himself to that Nian Nujiao?"
Yuchixiao had blue veins protruding on the corner of his forehead, and nodded again through gritted teeth.
Meng Yunfei turned his head sharply, only to see the red-clothed figure on the other side of the river standing against the wind, and Gong Wei looked at him innocently.
"… "
Meng Yunfei said with difficulty: "So Fahua Xianzun will appear in Sect Master Xu's memory because he came to kill the bride?"
Yuchixiao covered his face and turned his head, unable to face this sinister world.
After a long period of silence around him, Meng Yunfei finally asked a question that directly knocked his soul:
"Isn't it all fictional if you don't say it?!"
At this moment, with a creak, the door of a small courtyard in the distance was pushed open.
The world of consciousness of the realm master began to operate, and the two of them were instantly tight, and at the same time avoided half a step behind the peach tree, to avoid facing directly with the person in the mirror. I saw a man in silver armor and white clothes with a tall profile coming out. He turned to the backyard and pulled out a horse. He walked along the bluestone road to the gate of the courtyard. reluctant.
He said it was "Wang", but in fact his eyes were covered with white cloth, and only a straight nose bridge and a pair of thin lips were exposed, and his outline was extremely handsome - it was Xu Shuangce.
Unexpectedly, in his memory, he actually gained a lot of living popularity. He doesn't look like the immortal monarch who is high above the world and is as indifferent and ruthless as ice for ten thousand years. man.
Yuchixiao made an "ah" sound and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with his eyes, is he injured? This section is not mentioned in the book."
I saw Xu Shuangce standing in the illusion for a while, then suddenly let go of his horse and walked towards the hut. Although he couldn't see things, he moved without hindrance, and he didn't know if there were other ways to perceive the Yin-Yang and Five Elements. He pushed the door and walked in. He stood at the entrance with his back to them, and said softly:
"Peach."
—The legendary Mrs. Xu!
No one knows what her name is, let alone what she looks like, but over the years, Madam Xu has been well-known all over the world!
Meng Yunfei secretly said that he was offended, and looked away from him, but Yuchixiao did not have such a high moral standard, and immediately stretched his neck from behind the tree. However, it was too dark in the room, Xu Shuangce's back was blocked by the entrance, and he could only vaguely see a figure in a crimson dress in the room, but he couldn't clearly describe his appearance.
"Although what I said last night was abrupt, it was out of sincerity." Xu Shuangce hesitated before saying, "I don't know why, I have never seen your face or heard your voice, but The first time we met, there was a sense of past life, this life, and a long-awaited feeling."
"I know that you are hesitant, so you don't want to go back to Beijing with me, but it doesn't matter. I'll be here for a few months or a year. No matter if I can regain my sight in a year, I will definitely come back with a dowry gift to pick you up. "
He paused, his voice softer:
"Please cherish this time. When we meet again in the future, we will be husband and wife."
There was a dead silence behind the tree.
After a long time, Yu Chi Xiao finally couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Sect Master Xu really possessed by something?"
The mysterious Mrs. Xu in the room didn't make a sound for some reason, but the crimson dress rustled, as if she had written something on Xu Shuangce's hand. After a while, Xu Shuangce said softly, "Okay." He stood up reluctantly, and then left the room. Before leaving, he turned his head and smiled into the room.
It is reasonable to say that such a handsome and good-looking young man smiles in such a sympathetic manner, which is more than heart-warming - but this is Sect Master Xu.
Meng Yunfei covered his eyes with a shudder, Yuchixiao slammed his fingers deeply into the tree trunk, and both of their expressions were distorted as if they had been struck by lightning.
Not far away, Xu Shuangce turned around and straddled the horse, galloping away, and quickly disappeared at the end of the village.
There was a lot of noise in the house, and after a while, a graceful figure slowly walked out, standing on the stone steps and looking at the direction where the white horse disappeared.
She was facing the direction where the two were hiding, her hair was thick and long, winding from the side of her slender neck to her chest, covering her face. Although the face cannot be seen from this angle, but the slender figure is rare, just looking at a silhouette makes people feel fascinated.
Yuchixiao couldn't help saying "Huh": "Mrs. Xu is not like an ordinary farm girl."
Meng Yunfei said: "Although it's just a phantom in the mirror, it's disrespectful to peep at women, so don't look at it. In my opinion, this illusion is quite strange, and it would be difficult to let Sect Master Xu break through it by himself, and the key to cracking it is still down. On Mrs. Xu. As long as we make sure that Mrs. Xu survives safely, we can successfully marry Sect Master Xu..."
At this moment, the woman in the distance turned slightly, and Meng Yunfei's voice suddenly stopped.
She still didn't show her face, but this movement revealed a side neck and arm. On the arm was a golden ring with three golden threads waving end to end. The skin was so cold that it was rare in the world. A vague illusion of light.
Meng Yunfei suddenly felt a strange déjà vu in his heart, as if he had seen a similar appearance just now, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the Fahua Immortal Venerable on the other side of the river.
But there was no one there.
His eyebrows twitched, and he reached out and patted Yuchixiao: "Fahua Xianzun is gone, look around—" Then he froze.
The palm of the hand is clearly a cold and soft wrist.
"… "
Meng Yunfei turned his head silently, only to see that another person had squeezed in between himself and Yuchixiao at some point--Fahua Xianzun was blocking the sunlight with one hand and holding the trunk with the other, looking towards Xu Xu in the distance. Madam's back, the blood-red right pupil flashed with undisguised curiosity.
The next second, Yuchixiao and Meng Yunfei drew their swords at the same time: "When did he come!!" "Stop him!!"
With a loud bang, the tree trunk shook, Gong Wei rolled his head on the ground, got out of the cold light of the double swords of Gou Chen and Su Qing, got up and lightly avoided, tilting his head to avoid Gou Chen Xueliang's arc.
Fahua Xianzun is indeed as evil as a legend. Without a sword or any weapon talisman by his side, any offensive can be resolved with a thousand jins, and Yuchixiao can easily escape from any desperate situation, like a swimming fish Hook Chen Jianfeng and walk lightly. Meng Yunfei knew that as long as he was allowed to kill Mrs. Xu, everyone would immediately be buried in the collapsed illusion. In a desperate situation, he summoned the guqin, slapped it to the ground, and the sound waves erupted!
Gong Wei: "?!"
He just wanted to take the opportunity to see what the lady in Xu Shuangce's heart looked like. But Yuchixiao could not let him slip away, he immediately approached with his sword, Gong Wei finally felt relieved under the double attack of Qin Yin and Jianguang. Hit a few steps!
The damage directly applied to the soul made his throat sweet, his eyes darkened, and then his face darkened. He gritted his teeth and put the sleeves on both sides, and grabbed the Gou Chen Jian in Yu Chi Xiao's hand with his bare hands—
Meng Yunfei lost his voice: "Be careful, Yuan Ju! Stay away from Madam Xu!"
In the small courtyard in the distance, the woman in the mirror seemed to finally hear the movement, turned her head to look at them, and finally revealed her true face.
Meng Yunfei was stunned, Yuchixiao was stunned, and even Gong Wei's hand froze in midair.
The atmosphere was terrifyingly frozen, and the three of them couldn't take their eyes off the woman's face. After a while, they finally heard Yuchixiao's stammering voice: "This... what's going on?"
I saw nothing on the face of the legendary "Mrs. Xu", no facial features, no expression, not even any contour.
She has no face.
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely terrifying, and the three of them froze in place, looking at the blank and smooth "face" opposite.
Then Gong Wei suddenly reacted - yes, she really shouldn't have a face.
When she "died", Xu Shuangce didn't even have time to lift her hijab, and he didn't know what the so-called bride looked like from beginning to end!
Gong Weiyi didn't know whether to be funny or to feel a little guilty for being late. At this time, the woman turned around unresponsively, entered the house, closed the wooden door with her backhand, and clicked softly.
At the moment when the house door was closed, the light wind moved from far to near, rustling past the treetops, the peach blossoms all over the village suddenly flew away from the tops, and a crimson hurricane blew up the sky!
Gong Wei instantly realized what was going to happen, and immediately pulled away and flew back, following the woman into the small courtyard.
Yuchixiao had a bad heart, and was about to chase after him to stop him, but was pinned to the spot by an invisible imprisonment. At this time, the peach petals that covered the sky and the sun suddenly scattered, and the maple leaves were golden and red all over the mountains and fields, and the fallen leaves flowed down with the stream. Snowflakes swirled and fell one after another, and the entire village was covered in silver in an instant.
The white north wind carried the snow and fog across the valley, but before the two of them could feel the cold, they saw the ice and snow melt quickly, and the spring returned to the earth in a blink of an eye. The yellow warbler swept across the grass with a melodious cry, and a few carp jumped out of the water, splashing crystal waves;
Illusion time is like an arrow, and the four seasons pass by in a flash.
The villagers who could not see their faces began to work at sunrise and rested at sunset. As the afterglow gradually disappeared, the noisy village returned to silence, and the sound of night insects sounded in the distant fields.
The moonlight shone on the long stone path at the head of the village, and the surroundings were quiet and ethereal, and the sound of hooves suddenly came from the distant valley.
The two looked at each other and guessed what happened, Meng Yunfei said in a low voice, "It's Sect Master Xu."
The one-year period in the fantasy world has passed, and Xu Shuangce is back to welcome the bride!
