Chapter 227 76: Searching for Books ([-])

Li Chan frowned and said nothing. Before, he only thought Yuan Qixuan was troublesome, but now he feels that this person is very dangerous.The origin of the Xuanxin Sword is deeply involved. If his identity is revealed, he may face Xiyishan's revenge.

Yuan Qixuan went on to say: "At that time, Qi Haoyue, Qianyuan Academy, beheaded a pair of pheasants, and took their beaks to refine them into the two swords of hanging heart and gallbladder. After several twists and turns, I heard that this pair of swords fell into the hands of Xiyishan "Here, the meaning in the words is obvious, he knows the origin of the sword, and he also knows about Xuandu, "It turns out that it was Qianyuan Academy who obstructed Xiyi Mountain in Xuandu?" He laughed With a smile, "This sword is in your hands, it is considered to be returned to its original owner. In the border land, the son of a poor family, who can enter Yujing and get two great scholars Yanyu? It turns out that your Excellency was originally with Qianyuan Academy The relationship is very close, so it makes sense."

Li Chan killed the Taoist of Xiyi Mountain in Xuandu and obtained this sword in order to avenge his personal revenge, but Yuan Qixuan connected this matter with Qianyuan Academy, and he seemed to think Li Chan's master It is also in the Qianyuan Academy.Li Chan pondered for a while, and then understood Yuan Qixuan's meaning.Yuan Qixuan thinks so, which is quite beneficial to Li Chan. After all, if this fake monk also enters the Qianyuan Academy, he will not leak the Xuanxin Sword to the outside world.

"The layman must have misread it. It's better not to make wild guesses about this matter of speculation."

Li Chan refused to admit it, so Yuan Qixuan became more convinced of his guess, and looked at Li Chan for a while, "If there is a battle between you and me, I'm afraid it will be a fight between a snipe and a clam, and it will be easier for others. That's all, Little monk, go elsewhere, let’s find another opportunity.” Then he took two steps back and turned to the east.

If the two are evenly matched, and the stalemate lasts too long, it will be unfavorable to both sides, but in this situation, they are often unwilling to give in.Yuan Qixuan made some speculations, but for the sake of Qianyuan Academy, he sold Li Chan a favor.Li Chan wanted to laugh a little, held back, and asked, "Where is the layman going?"

Yuan Qixuan looked at the entrance of Yunjing Lane, "There were nearly 70 people who entered the Lingshu Pavilion this morning. The banner has been placed for so long, but only four people were attracted. Even if someone sees through the situation and is not fooled, this person There are too few. Li Guanqi was the first person to leave the academy, and the monk followed closely behind. When he arrived here, there was no sign of Li Guanqi... From the looks of it, only a few of the candidates for the exam have arrived here, and The others must have been scattered throughout Yujing."

Li Chan nodded and watched Yuan Qixuan leave, still wary in his heart, this fake monk had a deep scheming mind, he said he would just leave, but he couldn't believe it easily, maybe the moment he left, he might set someone up again.After Yuan Qixuan walked away a few steps, Li Chan suddenly thought of something, and asked again: "When the layman left the academy, did someone ask you anything?"

Yuan Qixuan stopped, "The old man asked?"

Li Chan nodded, "The layman answered?"

Yuan Qixuan asked back: "What about you?"

Li Chan said: "The appearance of all living beings."

Yuan Qixuan glanced at Li Chan.

"The little monk answered good faith." After leaving this sentence, he didn't stay any longer, as if he didn't want to delay any longer.

Li Chan thoughtfully, watched Yuan Qixuan leave, then turned to look at Daxiangguo Temple.

"Good Faith" and "Personality of All Beings" have something in common. Is this why he and Yuan Qixuan came to the vicinity of Daxiangguo Temple?He took out the blank paper again. There were no words in the spirit book, and there were no words on this paper. Where should I find the words? Is it related to the question and answer?What is the meaning of this test?
He thought for a while, and there was a creak behind him.The hinge of the door turned, followed by a timid cry: "Hey! That Tanyue..." The frightened little novice in the courtyard poked out half of his head from the back door of the Shaozhu courtyard. The ring scar on his head was still fresh.

Li Chan turned her head when she heard the sound, cupped her hands and said, "I'm bothering the mage."

"This... this little monk can't be called a mage..." The little novice was embarrassed, and looked at Li Chan with curious eyes.

Li Chan smiled and asked, "Major, where is the highest point near here?"

The little novice was ecstatically called by the mage, and said eagerly: "If we talk about the most majestic building, of course it is in the Daxiangguo Temple, but if you want to find the highest place in Tanyue..." He raised his hand and pointed to the east. "I heard that there is a Fufeng Building over there, it shouldn't be higher than that."

Li Chan followed the little novice's fingers and saw that among the flying buildings in the forest, there was indeed one that was taller than the others. He thanked the little novice and looked for it.

He passed the Shaozhu Courtyard and arrived at the East Gate Street of the Daxiangguo Temple, where he saw men and women eating and drinking.To the north is the military barracks on duty; to the east, young men are giving red thread to their female companions, while the nuns beside them are selling collar wipes; to the west, there are jingling sounds from Gulu shops and ironware shops.

From nowhere came the smell of pine oil from chickens and ducks, which added a bit of fishy smell to the smell of lamp oil and cigarettes in the temple.Fragrant chariots and Yuyu drove by on the street, and children chased after them.In the canal, there are young men and women sitting on pleasure boats, with their scarves pushed up so that their foreheads are exposed, singing without words, rolling up their sleeves, fighting and frolicking.People in Yujing like to cruise, and this scenery can be seen from the beginning of February to the summer solstice.

While looking at the vendors and pedestrians on the street, Li Chan searched for the Fufeng Tower, went up and down between the cloud bridges, and finally found the place, but saw that the tall building was built in a private house, the gate was closed, and it seemed that no one lived there. .After hesitating for a moment, he came to the back of the mansion and crossed the blue tiles and white walls, only to see that the fallen leaves in the garden were sparse, although it was not considered clean, it was not that it had not been cleaned for a long time.

He went straight to the bottom of the building, and when he pushed the door open, it was unlocked. An old man in Ge clothes in front of the wooden table at the bottom of the building was startled when he looked at a lonely lamp. The villain hesitated and said: "This gentleman..."

Unexpectedly, there was someone in the building, and Li Chan said shamelessly, "Li Dan, who was born late, wanted to climb high and look far away, but there was no one outside the door, so he had to come uninvited..."

"Looking at your appearance, you don't look like a villain." The old man smiled, "What's more, there is nothing to steal in this building." He stood up as he spoke, "Since you want to climb high and look far, you should come up. "

Li Chan was a little surprised, and followed the old man upstairs. The old man walked slowly while talking to Li Chan.It is said that the person who built this Fufeng Tower was a wealthy businessman in Beixiang who liked to make friends with scholars, so he specially built this view of climbing high and looking far away.

The old man babbled and said many things related to this building, the two of them reached the top floor, the old man took out the key, and said: "This building is too high, it will shake a little when there is a strong wind, if you see me, don't panic. This building is called Fufeng Building, which means weak willows supporting the wind. Although weak willows cannot be restrained by the wind, they cannot be blown down. Besides, although no one has climbed the building for a long time, Alang spent a lot of money back then. This building not only built a building on the ground , There are two more buried underground, and the floor bricks are numbered, and if some are damaged, they will be repaired with underground bricks and stones."

As he said that, he opened the door of the building, and the old man covered his mouth and coughed, "The old man is old and suffers from the wind and cold. You can do what you want, but you have to be careful, don't slip and fall."

Li Chan thanked her, sent the old man down the stairs, and returned to the top of Fufeng Building.There are tables, chairs and bookcases in the building. When the windows are opened, the cold wind is blowing in front of you.He leaned on the railing to look down, and he had a panoramic view of Xingguofang. The carriages and horses passing through the streets and alleys looked a lot like silverfish walking among the characters.

He looked at it for a while, then took out the page of the wordless book, and was about to examine it carefully.

Suddenly, the wind from the nine heavens blew, and with a crash, the pages of the book fell out of hand.

Li Chan couldn't reach out, so she could only watch the pages of the book being lifted into the sky by the wind.

The corner of the paper rolled up and merged with the clouds, as if someone had pinched the corner of the paper and turned the sky over.

Li Chan's black hair fluttered in the wind, and she looked up at the sky. If the sky was a book, where would the words be?

His gaze followed the pages of the book in mid-air, drifted down, passed over the cornices, bridges and corridors, and then looked at the cars, horses and pedestrians below.There are still no words in the book, only all living beings in the world.
