Chapter 86: The Four Sentences of the Qianqiu City
When Fucang and others heard this, their expressions were gloomy and uncertain.
However, Jizha's appearance suddenly changed, and he returned to his usual calm and easy manner. He flicked his sleeves and said with a smile: "It's not too late. It's better to catch the sun than to catch it. Now that the results are out, when can I wait for more?"
After saying this, he straightened his body and stirred up a stream of stars, which made him escape hundreds of miles away.
Fu Cang, Pin Yue and Gui Wu Guo, also stood up and followed closely behind.
It turns out that the most important thing shown in the bronze mirror is not the image of the human figure. The portrait is just a shadow, with only an outline and no face. What is the use of it? The most important clue is that the four people
The shape of the landscape and palace in the background can be used to determine its standing position.
It can be clearly seen that although there are slight differences in the background images behind the four people, the architectural styles are consistent. In particular, a certain foothill looms among them. It seems that the shape is different, but in fact it is just a different perspective.
The four destined disciples who taught the Dharma were most likely gathered in the same country or even the same city.
There is another mystery.
Even if ordinary people have the ability to draw shadows and figures, if they have not personally experienced it and have no impression of this place in their minds, they are still blind and helpless. However, this is not the case for people with great supernatural powers.
Because they have traveled extensively in the four immortal realms, they have vividly remembered the atmosphere of the mountains, rivers and earth. Even if they have not been to the places shown in the picture scroll, once they fly away, they open up their five senses and six consciousnesses, and what they see and hear is far away from the scroll.
Whether the place is closer or farther away will naturally have a clear impression.
Therefore, Jizha took the lead and fled, not heading towards a specific destination, but just running at will and taking things naturally.
The four people fled in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, ten days and ten nights passed.
At the end of the tenth day, the four of them happened to be in the clouds and mist together, hiding themselves and looking down into the distance.
Gui Wujiu's eyes were like lightning. He looked down and couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Below is a huge city with busy traffic and well-organized streets. The population of the inner city alone is at least over three million. Directly south of the city stands a huge watchtower, with a line of purple and almost black.
The stone plaque is embedded deep in the city, and it clearly bears the word "Qianqiu".
This city is the new capital of Zhu Fang Kingdom, Qianqiu City.
Gui Wujiu more than half a month ago, it was from Baiye City, the old capital of Zhu Fang Kingdom, that he encountered Shi Guangnan and Lu Zhuang arguing, and found Ji Zha and the other three.
Baiye City and Qianqiu City are more than 1,200 miles apart. Although it is extremely far away for ordinary people, for Gui Wujiu, it is almost like returning to their hometown.
Looking sideways, Jizha was still in high spirits, but Fucang, who made an appointment with the two of them, seemed to be hiding something on his mind.
Gui Wujiu thought about it briefly and found out that the two of them were probably concerned about what Jizha said before setting off.
Although all four people on this trip were able to find someone to teach the Dharma, there were four levels of difference in their achievements.
Jizha said: "Since we have locked the range, we can just use the traversal method. What do you three think?"
Fucang came back to his senses, nodded and said, "That's right."
Pinyue also nodded in agreement.
After a while, the four of them stood on the clouds and closed their eyes together.
The so-called traversal method is for the four of them to use their divine will to lock down all the low-level monks in the city who have reached a certain level of qualifications, and then shine their heart seals directly on them, counting them one by one. If there is a slight ripple in the heart, this person
It is very likely that he is involved in a predestined relationship with himself.
The essence of it is to expand the budding relationship between two people a thousand times, making it clear and invisible.
It stands to reason that relying on this method to search for destined disciples is much more reliable and accurate than relying on the five senses and six senses, and it will definitely not miss anything. However, this method consumes a lot of spiritual energy, and it takes a long time to practice after one use. So unless you are determined
You must keep your own karma within a certain range, otherwise if you use it rashly, you will definitely lose more than you gain.
A quarter of an hour later, Gui Wujiu was the first to open his eyes.
After waiting for about a hundred breaths, Ji Zha and the other two people suddenly realized their thoughts and nodded in greeting.
However, except for Ji Zha who still had an indifferent attitude, Fucang and Pinyue, one of them frowned and shook his head, and the other tilted his head in thought, but they were both a little weird.
Gui Wujiu smiled slightly, stretched out his hand a little, and said, "What I saw is roughly the same as I thought."
With a wisp of fresh air at his fingertips, he moved the pen in the air, transformed into a concrete image, and immediately turned into four human figures - clearly the clear images of the four people shown in Ji Zha's bronze mirror.
The first person is a young woman, about ten years old, tall and strong, wearing a luxurious armor and a bright red cloak on her back.
The second person is obviously older. He is in his thirties, wearing a green shirt and a yellow hat with a corner missing, which is very old-fashioned.
The third person has slender eyebrows, dark red skin, and piercing eyes, but his face cannot be seen clearly - because this person has a black gauze covering his face, only exposing his eyes.
Strictly speaking, after the clear image, there are only these three people.
The image of the fourth person is still a vague outline, like the incarnation of mist.
Fu Cang's face tightened, his eyes flashed with light, and he said: "I have repeatedly identified it, and it is exactly like this."
Pinyue also nodded slowly.
The two of them looked at Jizha together.
Gu Gou
The reason why Fucang and Pinyue were hesitant was not because the fourth person's image was not impressive.
This person may have a rare treasure close to him, so it is very possible to cover it up and explore.
Since the scope is limited to Qianqiu City, there is definitely no reason that cannot be found. Millions of people are certainly an incredibly large number for ordinary people, but for short-term experts, even if they are all in their hearts
Confirmation is not difficult.
What’s really weird is—
There were ripples in the hearts of the two of them, as if they were at fault, four times each.
There is no mutuality, no importance, no difference.
After calculating the whereabouts of the fate and drawing the shadows of the four people, Fucang and Ji Zha took it for granted that the four people on their side corresponded one-to-one with the four people in the scroll. They each found one, and they had the feeling of "one drink, one peck". However,
Unexpectedly, everyone is connected to four people, and there is no clear one-to-one correspondence between the four people above and below.
Ji Zha stood there for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "Don't look at me, I am the same as you two. I have found these four people by fate."
He added: "Perhaps this is the drawback of the divination method. Only the combined efforts of four people can stir up cause and effect; but it is precisely because of the combined efforts of four people that the forces of fate are mixed into one. Although the correct four people have been found, the four
The one-to-one correspondence between people is actually confusing."
"Or maybe it's really all four people, and there is no consistent rule."
Jizha looked at Fucang and exchanged words with each other, but he was very calm.
Gui Wujiu said nothing and seemed to be thinking about something quietly.
Ji Zha narrowed his eyes and suddenly pointed at the first of the four statues of Gui Wujiu, the handsome woman in armor, and said with a smile: "I seem to know this person... Yes, he is from Yang Dian
I have seen the image in the picture of the Immortal Worship Banquet in the Taoist Fellow Cave."
"This girl is the daughter of Qi Liang, the leader of the Zhu Fang Kingdom, and her name is Qi Yuqing. She is nominally a disciple and grandson of Taoist friend Yang Dian. I have never thought about which one of us has a relationship with him."
But no one responded to his words.
Gui Wujiu had an idea and figured out the key.
This must be related to what Jizha said earlier that the four of them "had different circumstances, and there were differences between them."
Under this situation, these words took on a different flavor.
I originally thought that the four disciples who were calculated by divination were like a carrot and a pit. Whoever chooses who is clear and who does not disturb each other. If this is the case, even if the degree of compatibility is still high and low, who is superior and who is inferior, that is completely wrong.
Out of their own destiny and path, they have nothing to do with others.
Only then did we know that the "difference between superiors and inferiors" as mentioned by Jizha was not a predestined outcome; it was the result of a human game and one's own choices.
The four of them, and the four calculated by divination, are more or less connected by fate, and it is very likely that they are all "barely suitable"; but with different matching methods, the degree of compatibility will be different.
Such a situation was unexpected by Fucang and others.
For example, if he helps Cang, it is very likely that whether he takes in Qi Yuqing or the one with a veil, he can help him develop magical powers; but perhaps taking Qi Yuqing as his disciple is more perfect, and taking the one with a veil is slightly less perfect.
Some.
Therefore, everyone must choose the best among the four candidates and choose the one that suits them best.
This is where the problem lies--
There is not a one-to-one correspondence between the four people; perhaps the first choice of the two is the same disciple.
Is this why the results of the four people are destined to be different?
Invisibly, Ji Zha, Gui Wujiu and the four others have become rivals.
Gui Wujiu was thinking about who among the four of them would be the most compatible with him; but without any warning, the sword in his mind wavered, and there was actually a sign of eagerness to try.
Gui Wujiu is proficient in several avenues of deduction, and the induction power of Kongyun Nianjian is not inferior to that of Chenyang Jianshan Heart Sword.
Jizha's deduction techniques are quite good at the macro level, and after locking down the minimum range of four people, in terms of sophistication, his deduction techniques of blamelessness are even better than Jizha's.
At this moment, Gui Wujiu felt that the results of Ji Zha's copper plate demonstration seemed to be a step forward.
After silently calculating the result in his mind, Gui Wujiu raised his eyebrows slightly.
Fucang rolled his eyes and said, "Gui Taoist friend seems to have something to say."
Gui Wujiu raised his head and said happily: "Gui also knows a little bit about the art of calculation. Just now, he made a mental connection and calculated the gains and losses of the four of you and me on this trip. It seems to be a step further than what Taoist friend Ji Zha saw."
Jizha looked surprised and amused, and immediately said: "I would like to hear the details."
Gui Wujiu said unhurriedly: "Fellow Daoist Ji Zha said that although the four of us have each successfully obtained a successor, our circumstances are different and we are different."
Ji Zha said: "Not bad."
Gui Wujiu smiled slightly and said: "According to Gui's deduction, the four of us will never achieve perfection. This is the same as what Daoist Ji saw; it's just that Gui's prediction is more accurate."
Ji Zha and the other three people all cast their eyes over.
Gui Wujiu said loudly: "Gui is making predictions in his heart. On this trip, of the four of you and me, one has perfected his merits; one has a twist of events; one is not happy with his success; and one returns with regrets."
