"Lin Xiao, what about you?"

"White apple."

After the two of them finished speaking, they looked at each other and smiled.

Lin Xiao thought in his mind that he might be the heir to the Bai family's bloodline skills, which is why Mei Chengfeng wanted to kidnap someone halfway.

Seeing the last bit of the mystery revealed, Lin Xiao couldn't help but lighten up his thoughts and said with a smile.

"On the occasion of parting, Miss, I happen to have something to do in front of you, Miss. Please help me."

Bai Ping looked surprised, knowing that Lin Xiao had never liked asking for help, so she said, "I'm sorry, but please give me your instructions."

Lin Xiao shook his head when he heard this. "Miss, you are serious, it's not a big deal."

As he spoke, he turned his head and pointed at the "radish" grazing leisurely, and continued: "Brother Ma is quite spiritual. I hope you can help me and take care of him."

Bai Ping smiled, nodded and said: "Don't worry, Lord, just leave the 'radish' to me. I will keep it safe and healthy, and become an 'emperor' among horses."

"...Hahaha, good!" Lin Xiao laughed.

After laughing, Lin Xiao looked at Bai Ping and clasped his fists. "It's a long way to go, see you soon, miss, take care..."

Bai Pingqiao tilted her head slightly and returned the gift. "Thank you for your kindness, Lord, and have a nice journey."

Lin Xiao nodded and smiled, turned around and took the "carrot", got on the horse, pulled the reins, kicked the four hooves in a circle, turned around, then lightly knocked the horse's belly, and then flew away like an arrow from the string.<

/p>

There is only one line by the river, the white shadow of the moon, standing quietly and looking at it.

It wasn't until the sound of hoofbeats faded away and the silhouette of his back was faint that a young man in bright yellow quietly came to Bai Ping's side.

"So it's him?" Bai Song looked in the direction where Lin Xiao disappeared and whispered.

Bai Ping brushed a few strands of hair, but her eyes still fell on the intersection of the mountains and rivers. "So what if it's him, but if it's not him?"

Bai Song looked at the girl next to him, his eyes full of love. "What my sister said was a bit untrue..."

Bai Pin smiled lightly. "Brother Huang is like a steward now."

After hearing this, Bai Song burst into laughter, and then suddenly coughed, which caused Bai Ping'er to frown slightly, and couldn't help but asked with concern: "How are you doing, brother Huang? I told you that you don't have to come here..."

"Hey..." Bai Song didn't take it seriously and waved his hand: "It's just a minor injury that hasn't healed yet. What's it worth?"

As he spoke, his voice slowed down. "You and I are brothers and sisters. We have grown up together since childhood. Don't I, the elder brother, know your temper?"

"Brother Emperor..."

Bai Ping was about to speak, but Bai Song raised his hand to hold him down. "He's going to leave, why not stay a while? My sister is tender-faced and can't speak, so I, my brother, will go and try her best to call him."

Stay in the country where I am worried!"

Unexpectedly, Bai Ping stared at Bai Song without saying a word, just smiling silently.

"Alas...this person is about to leave, and you are still laughing here?" Bai Song spoke in a hurry, and he was even more confused about what he meant.

Bai Ping shook her head, looked at the mountains in the distance, and said softly, "It's best to be away from each other. As the water flows from east to west, we will eventually meet again... If we part ways today, why not meet again at the end of the world?"

"Sister..."

Bai Song knew that his sister was very opinionated and decisive in her actions. At this point, she could no longer persuade her, so she could only sigh and give up.

……

……

On the other side, Lin Xiao, who was riding on horseback, had no way of knowing the conversation between the Bai brothers and sisters.

In other words, their group is gradually falling into the dilemma of high mountains and dense forests, and is struggling to move forward.

Although there was a road at their feet and the Tan Tang secret guards had cleared it in advance, the green bricks and stones that had been squeezed out of shape by vines and weeds still greatly slowed down their progress.

Not to mention the branches of trees growing wantonly on both sides of the road.

At the end of the journey, Lin Xiao and others could only hold the reins and hike instead.

The dumb nun who was walking at the front seemed to have guessed what Lin Xiao was thinking, and said aloud: "I am afraid that few people have come to this forbidden place for three to five hundred years..."

"Three to five hundred years?" Lin Xiao held "Carrot" and followed behind.

"Yes." The dumb nun nodded and replied: "Long before the Baimeizhong and the three families fell out, this place had been banned everywhere."

Lu Guangqi, who was not far away, picked up the conversation and said: "Don't say no one came. If the temple owner hadn't pointed out the location, to be honest, I couldn't find it even if I wanted to look for it..."

After saying that, he shook his head and laughed twice.

Lin Xiao was a little puzzled. "Since such an important formation is located, shouldn't we send people to repair and maintain it from time to time?"

The dumb nun smiled softly. "You are right. When the city was built on the mountain, no matter whether it was the imperial court or the three Baimeizhong families, they all had this idea. But as a result, there are always some things in the world that are too confidential.

, and will hardly be used, so rather than remembering it firmly, it is better to completely close it and forget it..."

Lin Xiao felt a little emotional when he heard this - this is the best way to deal with the "secret".

However, he thought of the words "building a city based on the mountains" and turned around to look at Zhuo Qinghe. He saw the latter shaking his head slightly, pointing to the ground, and whispered: "We have only cleared the path, and we will move forward."

, I didn’t dare to explore again..."

When the dumb nun in front heard this, she raised her head and headed towards the end of the road, where there was a ridge. "Don't be anxious, little friend, just turn around this ridge and you will know it at a glance."

After saying this, Zhuo Qinghe shrank his head and stuck out his tongue. Naturally, Lin Xiao didn't ask any more questions and just kept his head down and walked.

And this problem did not bother Lin Xiao for too long, because their "journey" soon reached the end at the end of the road, in the shadow behind the mountain ridge.

Similarly, the four words "building a city on the mountain" also got the answer the moment Lin Xiao stopped.

However, even though Lin Xiao boasted that he was well-informed, he was so shocked by the sight in front of him that his mouth opened wide - the ancestors who were worried about their country really built a solid city among the mountains!

Looking around, one can see a blue-gray city wall made of stone rising from the ground among the green mountains, enclosing a place, including city gates, shrines, stele pavilions, and cloud towers.

Follow the Shinto, passing through the side hall, the main hall, and the back hall. A stone road several feet wide goes up the mountain. There are dozens of stone statues of mythical beasts on both sides, until halfway up the mountain, there is a huge terrace.<

/p>

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Indistinctly, there is a tripod on the platform. Not far behind, there should be the entrance to a shrine. It is embedded in the mountain and cannot be seen clearly.

Just when Lin Xiao was stunned and stood on the spot, the voice of the mute mother came again. "The temple in the mountain should be where the big formation is. Let's go. I have only read one or two of the secret books in the temple, but

If you haven’t been here in person, be careful and don’t act rashly.”

The group of people agreed, followed closely in the footsteps of the dumb nun, and walked towards the city.

Gradually, the road opened up under their feet. When everyone passed through the city gate and truly stood on the Shinto, they realized how majestic this city was and how much manpower and time it took to build this place.

Weaving between rubble, bricks, and countless broken walls, although everyone looked around and full of curiosity, they were not slow and no one spoke.

Following the Shinto along the mountain, it didn't take long before we stopped at the huge terrace we just saw.

As expected, there was a cloud-white stone cauldron standing here, but when I got closer, I realized that this cauldron was really not small, more than ten feet high.

Behind it, a huge palace gate carved out of the mountain is quietly embedded in the mountain. The door is wide open, and it is dark inside, with no view of the scenery inside.

I saw the dumb nun raised her head and glanced at the palace gate. After a moment of pondering, she turned to give instructions: "The secret guards listen to the order. You will be on guard everywhere and pay more attention until I return."

The dozen Tan Tang secret guards immediately bowed and said: "Yes, I will obey the law in my humble position!"

The dumb nun said "Hmm" and glanced at Lin Xiao, Lu Guangqi and Zhuo Qinghe. "You three, follow me in."

"Yes, this junior understands." Lin Xiao and others replied after hearing this.

Seeing that everything was properly arranged, the dumb nun led Lin Xiao and the others up the stairs, passed through the palace gate, and went straight into the palace.

Following behind the dumb nun, Lin Xiao felt darkness in front of him and a cold wind blowing towards his face.

Before he could react, he saw the dumb nun twisting the magic formula in her hand. The real energy suddenly started to flow, and it flew a little higher, and the originally dark space suddenly became brighter.

"It seems that the formation is not broken and can still be used..." Mute Aunt said softly.

What I saw in front of me was a huge hall with a gold brick floor and square walls.

As far as the eye can see, there are no unnecessary furnishings, only four stone tablets more than two feet high, standing quietly among them.

Through the gap between the stone tablets, a doorway with a little light from the sky falls at the end of the hall.

Looking at the four lonely stone tablets in the hall, Lin Xiao and the others slowly moved closer. Only when they got closer did they realize that these four stone tablets were actually engraved with magnificent narrative reliefs.

Those concise and powerful lines outline countless extremely vivid scenes, as if they are telling some unknown stories, or that have been lost in the long river of time.

Several people looked up and looked at each building one by one.

The first one depicts several large ships breaking through the waves, with dark clouds rolling overhead and lightning and thunder. Some of the people sitting on the ship covered their faces and cried, some frowned, and some looked back with expressions on their faces.

Desolate.

The second one depicts three figures with their backs on their backs, looking at the altar of incense and bowing their heads in worship. In the background in the distance, a majestic city rises from the ground, with divine birds holding branches in the sky, and the divine light shining brightly.

Several people looked at it one by one, and it was not difficult to understand the meaning of the first two pictures. They should be the story of Chengkang's survivors crossing the ocean and establishing a country overseas, as well as the oath sworn in front of the three gods of Baimeizhong on the day when the Central Capital was completed.

But when they came to the third stone tablet, they all looked stunned and felt suspicious.
