One looks at the future, one looks at the past, and one looks at the present.
It is said that when the ghost clan was born, each one would be carried to the Bafang Mirror, and the future Mirror gave the corresponding name. Therefore, the one-eyed ghost official was called Nanyu, and the human-like ghost official was called Fuyue. Both were Bafang Mirrors.
It has its own meaning.
The three eight-sided mirrors are now placed in the hanging mirror pavilion three places in the east and south of Youdu. The one guarding them is called the mirror owner.
"Qin Yu, Chaoxu, Yuyan, these three mirror owners are all second only to that person, and they are also the only three ghost tribes who can enter and exit Lingxu Palace at will." Nanyu raised his hand and pointed at the distance under the blood moon.
The Golden Palace, lowered his voice and said, "That is Lingxu Palace, that bedroom."
That person is the tomb of Zhuanxu, the lord of the Nine Nethers.
The ghost officials dare not call him by his name, and only use that one to replace him.
Because once you touch the name, even if you just call the Lord, you will be immediately perceived and will be explored in your heart.
Low-level ghost officials like Nanyu, even if they were only investigated by Zhuanxu's tomb once, will be defensive and their cultivation level will plummet, so they will not mention it without mentioning it.
"The one you took me to see is this Qin Yu's mirror master?" Song Ling asked.
Nanyu laughed awkwardly, rubbed his hands, felt the spirit stone in his palm, and replied, "Yes, not all. What we are going to at Xuanjing Nan Pavilion now, and it is true that Lord Qin is in charge of it.
But what we want to meet is not for the time being…”
Fu Yue quickly poked Nanyu with her elbow.
The interrupted Nanyu turned his head and looked at Fu Yue without continuing to say anything.
"What, can't you say?" Song Ling raised his eyebrows.
"No, no." Nanyu waved his hand and explained: "I'm just afraid that you will be unhappy, because we have already taken your spirit stone. This... If you were to see a little person, you wouldn't take back the spirit stone.
Bar?"
It turns out that I'm afraid of this.
Song Ling narrowed her eyes and smiled, saying, "No, where can I take back what I gave?"
After hearing Song Ling say this, Nanyu and Fu Yue feel at ease.
After touching the spirit stone with great care, Nanyu continued, "You are such a good person! The old ghost often said that the monks on the ground are the most stingy, but they didn't expect that your move would be so arrogant.
”
...
Song Ling, who was praised, was amused and crying.
The blood moon in the sky disappeared halfway in the clouds, and on the long street, there was a vague sound of chung silence, as if calling for the dry things of the sky.
Seeing that Song Ling had some novelty in his eyes, Nanyu introduced: "Youdu is the Chaodu on the ground. Do you know Chaodu? It is exactly the same as there, even the morning bell and mute drums are the same. There are residents in Youdu, but after the Blood Moon goes down the mountain
Then they will come out.”
Chaodu.
Of course Song Ling knew.
The last human emperor unified the continent and established the Zhou Dynasty, and the capital was called Chaodu.
Unfortunately, the Zhou Dynasty lasted for only forty years.
The Zhou Emperor, known as the Holy Emperor, died on the way to the Western Expedition, and his crown prince was only six years old. The Zhou Dynasty he founded was naturally stolen and changed his name.
"There is no more Chaodu on the ground now." Song Ling whispered.
"Ah?" Nan Yu was stunned, covering his mouth with both hands, his eyes frightened.
Fu Yue, who was beside him, swallowed a saliva, approached Song Ling, and reminded: "You can't say this after entering Xuanjing Nangong later, be careful to be heard."
Being heard?
Song Ling was a little confused.
But Nanyu and Fu Yue refused to speak anymore and led Song Ling through the alley in silence.
After about a stick of incense, Fu Yue bowed and pushed away the weeds under the wall, then turned around and waved to Song Ling.
What was placed in front of Song Ling was a dog hole.
"Don't worry, there is the Nangong behind you." Fu Yue saw that Song Ling didn't move and hurriedly said: "It's late at night now. If we don't walk here, we will definitely not be able to get in the main entrance."
"If it is dawn, Master Qin Jing is afraid that he will go out to do business. It will be difficult for us to meet him again." Nanyu echoed.
Song Ling leaned over and looked inside along the grass that Fu Yue had pulled apart.
Behind the dog cave are blue bricks, green tiles, pavilions and water pavilions that look like the world. Above the nine-curved corridors, there are also three-story windows and lofts.
Song Mo followed Song Ling happily and drilled a hole. When he entered the yard, his tail was swung and he disappeared.
The disappearance of a raccoon slave was not discovered by others.
"You are waiting here, I'll call someone." Nanyu signaled Fu Yue to stay with Song Ling, but he got a lantern from somewhere and carried it.
He walked carefully to the corridor, and after walking a few steps, he fell back and lowered his voice to remind him: "If you meet the mirror owner or the master later, don't speak casually, and don't..."
Bang.
Fu Yue reached out and patted Nanyu on the shoulder, urging: "It's getting late, go quickly, so as not to be difficult to do things when dawn."
Nanyu nodded hesitantly, drooped his shoulders, and turned toward the corridor.
After a while, a man with a haircut in a white robe followed Nanyu.
"Mr. Qin, look... this is the monk on the ground that I said." Nanyu smiled flatteringly and hunched over. "She was named Lin Zigui, a disciple of Weilu Mountain. She came here this time to see her.
See Master Qin Jing.”
The man's face is as sharp as a knife and an axe.
A pair of peach blossom eyes, even in the middle of the night, even if there are only dim lights around, are still bright, making people unable to move their eyes away.
Song Ling shook her head and frowned slightly.
The Lord Qin standing in front of her seemed to have some strange charm, which made her feel like she was affected by Xiu Feixue's charm when she saw Xiu Feixue.
"Oh?" The man raised his jaw slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and repeated his mouth: "Lin Zigui?"
"Yes, Lin Zihui." Nanyu did not dare to look up, and Song Ling, who was stunned with his drooping eyes, wanted to remind Song Ling not to look at Lord Qin's eyes.
However, it was obviously too late.
The remaining two spirit stones that were originally held in Song Ling's hand fell to the ground with a sound and rolled to the feet of Nanyu.
"Good job." The man reached out to Song Ling and said to Nanyu: "The one on the ground belongs to you, she... I've taken it away, so there is no need to talk to the mirror owner."
Fu Yue, who was kneeling on the ground, quickly got up, grabbed Nanyu, who wanted to say something, and used the other hand to pick up the spiritual consciousness on the ground, saying, "Thank you Lord Qin, and I will give you a reward."
Seeing Lord Qin holding Song Ling and disappearing in the corner of the corridor, Fu Yue then breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and gave Nanyu a blank look, and blamed him: "You are really, are you trying to disobey Lord Qin just now? Are you looking for death?
?”
"But..." Nanyu looked at the corridor with concern and said, "That person didn't harm us either. We just watched Lord Qin take her away. She would come back to cause trouble for us."
Fu Yue sneered, divided the spirit stone in her hand to Nanyu, and said slowly: "How many monks can escape from Lord Qin? You're thinking too much."
