Whether it is her dreams or the records in history books and unofficial histories, Shi An and Xiao Mi are both the ultimate tragedy.
Because of this relationship, Shi An involved her family and country. Even if she did not commit suicide in the end, would she really have the courage to be with her enemy?
It was impossible. Shi An, one of the noblest people in the Jiang Kingdom, the emperor's favorite little daughter, and extremely proud throughout her life, would never find herself with an enemy after her country was ruined and her family was destroyed.
So in the end, she committed suicide not only for relief, but also to atone for her sins.
She didn't know if Shi An still had feelings for Xiao Mi in the end, but Yu Shuyue was certain that it was impossible for Shi An to find someone to build this.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered the passage she had read in the unofficial history, "Emperor Xiao spent his military life, and finally worked hard for the country and the people, and finally emptied his body. He died at the age of twenty-eight. There was no tomb after his death, and his dragon body was handed over to Hua.
Master Yansi Huairang."
The scene in front of her now existed in a cave on the mountain behind Huayan Temple. Yu Shuyue was very suspicious that all the records in the unofficial history were true.
The poorly preserved stone statue was built by Emperor Xiao, and the offerings above must have been provided by the monks of Huayan Temple. Only Xiao Mi, who was the emperor at that time, could have such great energy. Even three hundred years after his death,
The offerings here are still uninterrupted.
But wasn't the ending between him and Shi An caused by himself?
Why did he build such a place after his death and let monks worship it? What did he want to do?
Yu Shuyue had many questions in her mind. She calmed down the shock in her heart and slowly walked towards the stone statue. She wanted to see what else there was and whether Emperor Xiao's dragon body was buried here.
This space was large, with fires all around, and there were some patterns painted on the walls that Yu Shuyue couldn't understand. Although she couldn't understand it, judging from the yin and yang and symmetry in the patterns, it was indispensable that they were Taoist things.
The bright and flickering fires in the room are scattered on the walls, looking mysterious and strange.
After discovering that there were Taoist things on the surrounding walls that she couldn't understand, she didn't pay too much attention to it. The place where the stone statues stood was supposed to be her latest place.
But looking at the two three-foot-tall stone statues, she felt inexplicably afraid to go.
It was not fear, but the fear of not knowing the truth of what she was going to face. When she walked to the front of the stone statues and saw the sarcophagus hidden behind the two stone statues, she felt goosebumps in her heart.
There is no chance that there are really corpses here...
She felt sad, but she still slowly approached the sarcophagus.
People, although they are scared at heart, are still curious.
No matter how slow Yu Shuyue walked, she was only two steps away from the sarcophagus in just one cup of tea.
She was standing under the stone statue of Shi An, and she couldn't help but look up.
The carving technique of the stone statue was very good, and the face was so perfect that she couldn't help but be fascinated by it and marveled at her beauty.
But then she remembered that she and the stone statue had the same face. When she praised the stone statue, wasn't she praising herself in disguise? When she thought about it, she felt a little embarrassed.
She retracted her divergent thoughts and moved to the sarcophagus in small steps.
There were still some patterns carved on the sarcophagus that she couldn't understand. Yu Shuyue just took a look at it and didn't pay much attention to it. Is the sarcophagus too big?
It was twice as big as an ordinary coffin. With curiosity, she carefully pushed the lid of the sarcophagus.
Thanks to her natural strength, although it was difficult, she still pushed it away.
"Boom boom boom——"
The sarcophagus made a sound, and Yu Shuyue slowly saw clearly the person lying inside.
Just one glance made her fall to the ground in fright.
"How could this be, how could this be, why..."
She didn't react for a long time, resting her hands on the ground with a look of disbelief on her face, and muttering to herself.
"It's been more than three hundred years, why is it still like this? Moreover, didn't Shi'an die six years before Emperor Xiao? Would a person who jumped off the city wall still maintain such a perfect face?"
There were only two stone statues, two corpses and her in the entire stone chamber. Of course, no one came to answer her questions.
Yes, that's right.
There were two corpses lying in the sarcophagus, namely Shi An and Xiao Di.
Their faces looked rosy, and Shi An's skin was even smoother. They looked like people who had been dead for more than three hundred years, as if they were asleep.
Xiao Mi's face is exactly the same as Qi Xiuyao's. The only difference is that his face is more aged and his outline is thinner. The most special thing is his head full of black hair.
Yu Shuyue is in a very confused mood now, and she is in a state of confusion. The confusion in her heart makes her a little at a loss and confused.
She wanted to leave here quickly.
Yu Shuyue's legs were so weak that it took her a long time to get up from the ground. When she got up, she saw two people lying in the sarcophagus.
She was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat. Before she was frightened for the third time, Yu Shuyue pushed back the lid of the sarcophagus and closed it, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
But, how should she leave here and return to reality now?
Yu Shuyue didn't want to stay here anymore. The impact of all the things happening in front of her was too great. She needed to return to her own safe area and slowly digest it.
"Go back, I want to go back, I want to go back!"
She didn't know how to get out of this dream. She entered the dream out of nowhere, and now she could only keep shouting to go back.
But after shouting several times, there was still no change at all. She became more and more panicked and became irritable. She couldn't help closing her eyes and stamping her feet and shouting loudly, "I want to leave here, I want to go back, I want to go back..."
…”
"Donor, Donor, wake up."
"Donor woman, please wake up."
Yu Shuyue opened her eyes with a gasp, and the surroundings were no longer the dark stone room, but the bright cave from before.
Before she had time to be happy, she met a pair of wrinkled eyes filled with compassion.
"Ah - who are you -"
Yu Shuyue wondered if she didn't read the almanac when she went out today. She had been frightened several times in a row.
"Amitabha, the poor monk's name is Huairang, and the little donor was frightened. It's because of Huairang."
When Huairang saw her waking up, a smile appeared on his face.
Giving in?
Why did this name sound so familiar? Yu Shuyue couldn't help but mutter, "Huairang, Huairang...Master Huairang?!"
Suddenly, her eyes suddenly widened, and she stood up from the ground. She looked at the kind-hearted old monk in front of her in shock.
"You...are you Master Huairang from Huayan Temple? Are you the Master Huairang who lived for three hundred years?"
"No, no, no, I haven't lived for three hundred years."
Before Yu Shuyue could breathe a sigh of relief, she heard his smiling voice continue, "If you calculate carefully, I have lived for five hundred years." This chapter has been completed!
