Chen Xing said: "This is the arrangement of life, do not want to be a guardian is not up to you, you see?" Now it's the wrong time to follow me into this... You you you What are you gonna do? ! Will you try to hit me again?" Item description stood up, Chen Xing immediately back, thought the rabbit is anxious will bite, item description did not threaten him, walking in front, glancing at Chen Xing side head. "The lonely king hates cheating most in his life," Xiang said coldly, "as long as you don't cheat, you can save your life." When hearing the word "solitary king", Chen Xing suddenly realized a serious problem that he had never paid attention to before, that the identity of the item was Dashanyu, that is, the king of the North of the Saibei, and the Fu Jian, the Central Plains, in theory, were on an equal footing. Perhaps it is the habit of the two people all the way to travel, Chen Xing never took Xiangshu as a big single in the past, and did not pay attention to his words like in front of Fu Jian, now want to think that this guy is also a master of one's word. But Chen Xing still can't help but ask for a cheap mouth. "If you hit me again, when I get my powers back..." Chen Xing hate hate way, "I will revenge, then I will kill you!" Saying that, he immediately retreated a little, prepared the item to begin, and ran back to the imperial study with a loud cry, moving Fu Jian to save his life. "I'll wait." Item description but only cold way, waiting for Chen Xing to follow, frowning: "Still not go?" Chen Xing doubts for a moment, then back to God, the item is to investigate the exorcism of the matter, it is not far to keep up. Then he turned out of the garden and came to a temple. "The greatest simplicity is the greatest arrival." The gatekeeper is busy calling home. Here is the princess Qinghe's bedroom, only see Qinghe princess lazy sitting, several Xianbei girl looks beautiful, want to be the daughter of Xianbei noble family. As soon as they saw this, all the girls suddenly laughed and got up to meet them. "Tai Shan Yu!" "Don't be paranoid," Princess Qinghe said with a half-smile, "sit down for me. You like men." Item description: "..." Chen Xing glanced suspiciously at Xianxu: "Oh? Did you, now? Really?" Princess Qinghe again explained to the left and right: "Haven't you heard about the other day?" Xiang Shu took a deep breath, had to not talk about it with princess Qinghe, otherwise it would only be more and more black, and the voice said: "Where are people?" Princess Qinghe said, "Here you are. Please sit down and drink tea. Tianchi will serve you." Chen Xing had to take a seat and pour tea to Xiangshu, Princess Qinghe said again: "Tianchi?" Chen Xing always feel that this group of Hu people have a joking mind, nothing like to tease him to play, he is full of vigilance to the princess Qinghe, but do not know the purpose of the project to come here, may be let Qinghe help find someone to assist them in the investigation. "Yes." Chen Xing replied. Princess Qinghe smiled and said, "Did you accept the marriage proposed by Your Majesty?" Chen Xing calmly said: "No promise." Princess Qinghe said again, "Oh? Why? You don't mind, we Xianbei people are so direct." All the girls laughed again and looked at Chen Xing. Chen Xing mouth twitching, replied: "no feelings." Princess Qinghe said, "You can develop your feelings slowly." Chen Xing replied: "That has to wait for training, then talk about marriage." Chen Xing has now been able to accept the marriage of two men quite frankly, thinking that only other excuses can be used to block this group of rites and music collapse, lawless nonsense. Another girl, Chao Qinghe, smiled and said: "He has already had someone, Brother Yan is not to expect it, it is me I will marry Dashan, isn't it?" The girl said is Xianbei, Chen Xing learned from Yuwenxin before, all understand, but under this scene, but had to pretend not to understand, also not good to see the face. Princess Qinghe also replied to the girl in Xianbei, "It is ok for two to marry together." If he can sit in Wang Meng's place, he will marry Dashanyu first, and then Yan Er..." Chen Xing: "..." "That's enough." Item description finally can not listen to. This time outside the people finally came, Chen Xing but listen to a familiar voice. "Citizen Feng Qianjun, meet Her Royal Highness Princess Qinghe." Chen Xing: "!!" Chen Xing immediately turned his head, but the item is just a glance outside the door, saw Feng Qianjun standing outside the threshold, dare not come in, a little bow, then sleeve hands stand. Chen Xing saw below, almost did not know, just because today Feng Qianjun specially changed a body of clothes, a change of weekdays, wearing a black paint cage crown, but also trimmed eyebrows. With his sabre off, his face looks like a crown of jade. Chen Xing almost called out Feng brother, but was an eye stop. "Dashan wants to see you," Princess Qinghe said with a casual smile, "Come in." "Let me talk to you for a moment." But Xiang Shu got up and said, "I am going away." Princess Qinghe did not stop you, only said: "Your Majesty will wait for you to have dinner this evening, and come back early." Xiang Shu smell speech will know that trouble is coming, since entering the palace, Fu Jian never mention purple roll gold grant, only let him have a good rest, item shu will not take the initiative to open, now presumably Fu Jian has been unable to restrain, finally open to him to purple roll. Chen Xing and the item then got up to go out, Feng Qianjun looked up again, cast a glance toward the temple, Chen Xing suddenly found that Feng Qianjun in the eyes, was actually with a little lonely. "Brother Feng?" Chen Xing low voice track. Feng Qianjun nodded, and Chen Xing, a statement together out of the palace, three people did not speak, Chen Xing heart calculation, looking at the statement, guess his motives, more strange why Feng Qianjun will know the princess Qinghe, full of doubts, to the palace outside no one, a carriage is waiting. Feng Qianjun took the initiative to say: "Last night, I have heard, I know you two are OK, today is trying to ask someone into the palace, but the big simple first passed me in." Chen Xing look at Feng Qianjun, and then look at the item, the item is still that inscrutable expression, no clue. He had to ask Feng Qianjun, "Brother Feng, do you actually know Princess Qinghe?" Feng Qianjun explained: "In addition to running a bank, the Feng family occasionally offered rare things to the royal world, and came to Chang 'an seven years ago, due to luck, I met her." Tai Shan Yu, since you asked me to come, I can forgive you..." Xiang Shu interrupted Feng Qianjun and said, "It is my fault that I could not save your driver last night." Feng Qianjun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The charioteer has already given a generous burial, so that the heavy money has been distributed." Naturally, no one wants this to happen." Chen Xing heard to the identity, would care about the driver's life and death, but to him slightly changed. "Get in the car and talk." Feng Qianjun motioned, "Go to Pine and Cypress House?" Chen Xing: "This carriage is too small..." Feng Qianjun: "I didn't know you were both there, forget it, make do first squeeze..." Feng Qianjun in the carriage is very small, three people go up, the item and Feng Qianjun legs are long, immediately squeezed to move, the nose lip of the item is attached to the side face of Chen Xing, Feng Qianjun's arm against Chen Xing's waist, Chen Xing can only half sit on the item and Feng Qianjun a person contributed a thigh. "Why am I sitting in the middle..." Feng Qianjun: "Is it difficult to let Dashan sit on my lap?" Item description: "..." Chen Xing: "Strange, don't you always ride horses?" Why did you take the bus today?" Feng Qianjun: "Because I don't want to mess up my hair." Chen Xing: "Why?" Feng Qianjun: "Don't ask, it's all sad." Car over the long Kang North Road, along the street of the return of the last night and Chen Xing swaying to. Feng Qianjun said again, "Who on earth attacked you at night? How many people? The information we have is limited. The only person involved is you two." Xiang Shu is almost attached to Chen Xing's face, coldly replied: "I don't know, a person." Feng Qianjun asked again: "When the city patrol troops arrived, there was already the body of my driver, why didn't you wrestle for a while and wait for reinforcements?" Feng Qianjun knew that with this identity, decided not to start to kill a driver, almost certainly two people after leaving Songbai House was attacked. "Waiting for the garrison?" Xiang Shu said coldly, "Let them also die in the street?" Chen Xing heart way is so, suddenly ran away last night, do not want to kill the soldiers who patrol the city? Feng Qianjun looked puzzled, and looked at Chen Xing, Chen Xing thought for a long time, explained: "Attack us, is a monster." "Another monster?" Feng Qianjun puzzled, "How do you go everywhere, where there are monsters?" "Do you think I do?" Chen Xing helplessly said, "And this cause and effect is also reversed!" Xiang Shu opened his mouth and said, "You have been sent to the palace for another matter. Now go and open the last door of the storehouse underground." Chen Xing: "!!" Chen Xing this morning just mentioned the item, the item will strongly to Feng Qianjun put forward the request, Feng Qianjun immediately said: "No! I have no right to go in, and I can't." Item says: "OK, then stop the car." Chen Xing immediately said, "What are you going to do?" Chen Xing only thought that Xiang Shu was going to kill him alone, stabbed Feng Qian Yi with a sword, and then slaughtered the pine and cypress House, but Xiang Shu said: "So, there is no need for the pine and Cypress House to exist." Feng Qianjun: "..." Three people crowded in a narrow carriage, Xiangshu to get up, Chen Xing quickly moved to him, put him under pressure, sitting in his arms, smooth the way: "There is something to say." Xiang said: "The Feng family has been killed, is still complacent and unaware, early death and late death is death." I wouldn't mind giving your family a lift." Feng Qianjun: "!!" Feng Qianjun took a deep breath, Chen Xing listened to the heart, the item said actually so directly out! For a moment there was silence in the carriage, but Feng Qianjun hesitated to say a word, and finally, with a little frustration, sighed: "I have advised my brother more than once." Xiang said: "This has nothing to do with me, open the warehouse door." Feng Qianjun said stiffly, "Otherwise what?" Xiang Shu replied, "Otherwise tonight the lone king will mobilize the Forbidden army and expel your Feng family from Chang 'an." I've tolerated you for a long time, Feng Qianjun." "No, no," Chen Xing said immediately, "don't quarrel, we all along the way, but also together with the rough sleeping friends, uh... Brother Feng, I really need... Can you do something for me? you For you, this whole universe... Well..." Chen Xing looked at Feng Qianjun's sword, the hidden meaning is self-evident: once the world magic is restored, Sen Luo knife becomes a magic weapon, in the hands of Feng Qianjun, at least can restrict the elder brother Feng Qianyi, to the bad can also protect itself. Feng Qianjun naturally understand the suggestion of Chen Xing, thinking not a word. Chen Xing know that the statement is not joking, in fact, as long as their request to Tuobayan, search pine house, it seems not difficult to reach, but not good to Fu Jian replacement. Item description in a position of power, tell Feng Qianjun in advance, is already given enough face, if the Feng home does not bear other things, be searched by the forbidden army, and reason, right now, right in the brother is plotting, as long as the wrong step, may die without burial. Feng Qianjun had to say: "Big brother categorically will not agree, but OK, I will find another way, just for the sake of this family's Senluo sword, I hope that after the magic is restored, I can convince my brother and let him understand our responsibilities in the Feng family." At noon, Feng Qianjun will Chen Xing and item shu please enter the pine house, go out a trip and come back, explained: "Big shopkeeper every day after lunch, will nap for a moment, while at this time, I will go to get the warehouse key." Item description looks as usual, and Chen Xing in pine and cypress house with lunch, Feng Qianjun gaze at item description, smiled: "interesting, you are not afraid of me in the food under poison." Chen Xing said, "What good does poisoning do you?" Xiang said: "I am not afraid to poison." Feng Qianjun: "..." Chenxing surprised to see item, heart think you still a hundred poison dont invade? It was a very strange constitution. Feng Qianjun thought for a moment and said: "My brother has changed his disposition since his sister-in-law passed away. In these years, he insisted on avenging my sister-in-law and two nephews..." Xiang said: "It has nothing to do with me." Feng Qianjun had to answer: "Conspiring against a great sin is one of the ten evils, all SINS are pardonable, but all SINS are not." I can only persuade him, but if I don't listen, what can I do?" Item state silent dont answer, Chen Xing is nervous, want to explain to Feng Qianjun, he conspired against the Feng family brothers this matter, but tight-lipped, but said more and appeared to cover up. Finally, Feng Qianjun added, "I just don't understand who leaked the word." Chen Xing quickly followed the explanation: "Not me, I didn't say anything." Feng Qianjun again fell into thinking, until the afternoon, Feng Qianjun gently stood up, motioned to get the key, please wait for two people. He walked barefoot through the corridor, came to the big shopkeeper's room, and in a moment, successfully got the key. "There are only three keys." Feng Qianjun Chen Xing show, Chen Xing calmly took over: "I will go in to see, ensure not to move your things, will let everything return to its original place." Feng Qianjun also went to the warehouse guard, item and Chen Xing waiting in the side, waiting for no one, Chen Xing will use the key to open the warehouse door, from inside to outside, still tightly covered. The light is dark down, reach out to see the five fingers of the warehouse, Chen Xing hands issued a warm white light, the only sleeve of the hand behind him, up and down, in turn through the copper library, silver library, into the vault. Xiang Shu looked around and Chen Xing explained: "This place is the site of the Han Exorcism Department three hundred years ago, and we are standing in their hall." Xiang said: "In the exorcism department, is there any record about the resurrection of 'demon'?" "I don't know." Chen Xing replied, "It is said that after the exorcism Department was dissolved in those years, many classics have been scattered in the world with the years, my master Huashan collected some, and many more have gone missing... Why on earth do you mind the demon so much?" Item Shu still did not answer, came to the last secret door, the key is all used, the center only a compass. "This is called Luban wheel," Chen Xing thought for a moment, and said, "I learned in the master men, it is a kind of organ art, last night when Feng Qian Yi brought me in, I thought I knew nothing about it, in fact, listening to the voice, you can identify the secret of unlocking the sky, the earth and the dry, there are many boxes in the master men, are all using this kind of compass..." "Cut the crap." Xiang Shu pressed Chen Xing's neck, pressed him to the compass, "open the lock." Chen Xing: "..." A moment of silence in the room, only the sound of the compass rotation, Chen Xing recalled the sound of Feng Qian Yi rotation last night, trying to on the compass engraved on the sky dry ground branch. "Description?" Chen Xing asked, the white light in his hand illuminating only a small spot on the compass. Both were hidden in the darkness. Item description: "?" Chen Xing: "Your name is clearly Shu Lukong, why do you say your surname Xiang?" And why are you called 'Xiang Shu' and not 'Xiang Kong'?" "What does that have to do with you?" Item description indifferent way. Chen Xing only feel that there are too many mysteries on the body, why he is so concerned about the "demon", although Longzhong mountain met again, the answer to this is just "nosy", but then it seems that it is not like nosy appearance. Even the reason for the village massacre is not very plausible. In an instant, Chen Xing stopped his action. Item description: "Continue." Chen Xing stood upright, thought for a moment, and said: "Wait a minute, Xiangshu, I have a condition." "Do you dare make me an offer?" Shang Shu hands fingers with Chen Xing shoulder, Chen Xing suddenly on the half of the sour hemp weak, busy said: "I don't mean! Let go! Let me explain!" "I felt a grudge behind the door." Chen Xing is almost certain that the last time he was in the warehouseWhat the Ministry feels is not an illusion, it is true, and he added, "I suspect that there is some kind of seal under the ground, although it is not yet known why it is involved with Feng Chun Yi, it is likely that he is also affected by this resentment..." "Cut the crap and get to the point!" Xiang Shu Dao again. "The secret vault of the Exorcist General... Don't do it! Listen!" "There may be some kind of seal," Mr. Chen said. "This kind of thing can't be solved by fighting alone." Xiang said: "Yes, listen to you." Chen Xing added: "Although I am not quite sure how to deal with it, you need to act as my guardian during this time, and most importantly, protect my safety. You must trust me wholeheartedly and unreservedly, and listen to my words, so that you can deal with the danger." Xiang Shu sneered, "Don't you think you've always had good luck?" Chen Xing said again: "I don't know what I really provoked you, what is your opinion of me?" Xiang said: "You did not provoke me, and I have no problem with you." Chen Xing: "So let's talk calmly, is it difficult for you to be my guardian?" As long as you are willing, the power of the heart lamp is far more than this effect, and you have also seen its role in Longzhong Mountain. The book says that magic is at its most powerful when the exorcist and the guardian are committed to each other's lives." Xiang said, "You're blackmailing me with this? Open the door!" Chen Xing: "Of course not! I'm just afraid there's something in there that I can't handle." Item Shu was silent for a long time, and when Chen Xing turned to see him, item Shu finally said: "Yes." "Woof! Woof!" "Wow! Chen Xing was startled by the sudden sound, and when he turned back, he saw Feng Qianjun holding a small soil dog: "Huh? Why are you here?" Feng Qianjun said: "It smelled your scent on me and followed me all the way." It was the dog that Chen Xing picked up from the road when they arrived in Chang 'an and entrusted to Feng Qianjun. It had not been seen for a few days, and the dog only wagged its tail happily towards Chen Xing. Chen Xing hugged it, touched its head, and was almost frightened until a heart jumped out of his throat and asked, "Brother Feng, when did you come here?" Feng Qianjun: "When you ask Dashan to listen to you wholeheartedly and without reservation." Item obviously already know Feng Qianjun came in, Feng Qianjun footsteps are light, but not hide from this master, Chen Xing said: "I have unlocked the lock, this is the door." Chen Xing took a deep breath, put the compass back in place, there came a "click" sound, the lock was opened, and then pushed the door forward. The door didn't budge. Chen Xing: "..." "It must have been closed for too long." Chen Xing leaned over, put his shoulder against the stone door, pushed it hard, and said, "It's stuck inside..." When he exerted force, his feet slipped on the ground and he said to Xiang Shu, "Protect the Fa! Give me a hand!" Xiang Shu took Chen Xing's collar, took him to the side, stretched out the two fingers in the food, hooked an opening on the edge of the compass, pulled sideways, rumbled, the door slid open to the left. Chen Xing: "Oh, it's a sliding door." A dark space appeared inside. Chen Xing raised his hand, and the light of the heart lamp filled the room and shone into the depths. It was a small dark space, but the wood room was square, and when the light of the heart lamp came on, the interior was immediately visible. Just as the door opened, the little dog suddenly got scared and turned and ran away. Chen Xing gave a shout and walked in quickly. He saw a jumble of broken bamboo slips on the left shelf of the small room, dozens of boxes on the right, and a locked iron cabinet in the middle. "It's been in the ground too long." Chen Xing reached out and took down the bamboo slips from the shelf, frowning deeply. Storage room for only three people to stand, even turn around will meet each other, Feng Qianjun looked up around, said: "This must be when the construction of the warehouse, dug out of the ground relics." "Can you see?" Item description. Chen Xing regretfully handed a piece of bamboo, three hundred years of years, and was buried in the ground for a long time, suffered from water erosion, sand mud covered, no longer can see the word. "Just one step away," Chen Xing said helplessly, "just one step away, God!" "Are you sure you can find what you're looking for if the handwriting is legible?" Xiang Shu said, holding Chen Xing's wrist in one hand and raising him slightly as a lamp to illuminate the bamboo slips in his hand. Chen Xing: "At least we can find some clues!" Feng Qianjun opened a box and said, "You see?" Inside the box, there was a large lump of hard shell stuck together, and Feng Qianjun broke off a small piece of paper. After the paper was soaked in water, it was pasted into a big ball and finally dried. Chen Xing struggled a few times, let the item let go of his hand, the item will be thrown aside, and began to look at an empty scabbard. "What is written on the scabbard?" Item description question. Chen Xing recognized a line of ancient seal characters on the scabbard: "Life and death are bound to the net, and I am willing to cut it off with the sword of wisdom." In the middle was a heavy iron cabinet with a black iron lock on it. "Open it and see? Chen Xing always thought there was something unusual about this place. Feng Qianjun motioned for two people to get out of the way, was trying to draw a knife, but the item of the finger, a hook, a twist, the cabinet door connected to the lock of the iron was screwed off. When Chen Xing was about to use the light to shine the iron cabinet, Xiang Shu was already in front of Chen Xing, holding the sword sheath in his left hand as a guard posture, and opening the door of the cabinet with his right hand - there was a vanity mirror the size of a hand in the cabinet, the rest were all jade products, and there were chains carved in white jade, heavily wrapped around the vanity mirror, and at the moment of opening the iron cabinet, black fog was suddenly filled. The function of jade is to ward off evil... This is resentment! Chen Xing made a quick decision and shouted, "Close the cupboard door!" However, this cry has come too late, the cabinet door opened, the inside of the black fog exploded out, swept the entire storage room, the three people wrapped in it, the project said: "Back!" Chen Xing only felt a strong suction dragging him, pulling him crazy in the direction of the mirror, just turned around, he was wrapped in a whirlwind flying up, with a strong push behind the sword sheath off, followed by being sucked into the mirror! The iron cabinet shook wildly and rumbled, like a monster's mouth, which began to devour everything around it in the wind. Chen Xing grabbed the door of the storage room and dragged Xiang Shu with one hand, and Xiang Shu shouted: "Let go! Leave me alone!" Chen Xing turned around and shouted, "What did I say before I came in?" Feng Qianjun shouted: "Try to kick the door!" However, Chen Xing has not been able to grasp, finger pain, subconsciously a loose, was the black mist cyclone rolled in the past, at that moment, Xiangshu immediately encircled Chen Xing's waist, he held a move tightly, two people were sucked into the mirror! Feng Qianjun shouted: "Come quickly! Help --! Chen Xing!" Feng Qianjun grabbed the knife in one hand, stuck the knife in the door, looked back at the strange mirror, and then looked out, suddenly the pupil slightly enlarged, saw the dark room, leaning on a wheelchair, carrying a lamp, wearing a mask, only covering the two eyes, looking at his brother Feng Qian Yi from a distance. Feng Qianyi showed a strange expression, half smiling, helpless shaking his head. Feng Qianjun imperceptibly off, even people with knives, by the dark storm together into the mirror.
