Fu Canglu

Chapter 186 Clues
Buddha's remains ([-])
After a long time.

His Highness recovered from the shock in the eternal night, clutching the dry bone tightly in his hands.

The chess master said that this dry bone will play a key role in breaking the game in this Buddha skeleton!

Yi Xiao rubbed the center of his brows, and looked out the window again.

The moon was shining brightly, and the backs of those terrifying monsters had gone away.

Sunset Town returned to dead silence.

His Highness silently rearranged all his thoughts.

He kept thinking, what is the skeleton of the Six Paths Buddha?
In my own conception, such a prison, turned into a mustard seed in an instant, should include both sides and ends of the Styx River, plus the world with a radius of thousands of miles above!

So, is Sunset Town the only place in this world where there are people?Or is it that there are countless "sunset towns" in this small world?
The great master in the purple shirt obviously regarded this as a game, and his attitude towards this game was obviously cynical, but it seemed that he intended to test it deliberately.

The rules have been set, what is meant by victory?
The black-robed skeleton in front of the bridge, the chess master Wei Haoran said a word before he died.

"In this game, there is no victory or defeat. There is only death and survival."

Yi Xiao was a little confused and closed his eyes.

There is no prompt.

There are no clues.

How to break the game?

He played with a phalanx in his hand repeatedly, and then slowly opened his eyes, which had regained clarity.

The remains of the Buddha of the Six Paths is not so much a game as a game.

On the opposite side of the gambling table is the Northern Wei Great Master who is also known as the only teacher in the world.

The chip is your own soul.

What to bet and how to bet.

The great master in purple shirt didn't even give a clear reminder.

And when he was about to leave, he stretched out his finger and pointed at his forehead, which couldn't be clearer at this moment.

Everything on the gambling table depends on the little Highness himself.

"Do you fight wit?" Yi Xiao let out a breath slowly, and said, "Xuan Shangyu, you threw me in this town, and without giving any clues, you just want to crush me to death by reincarnation in the Buddha's skeleton?"

He took a deep look at the dumb girl who was busy in the room, and suddenly said softly: "Shuiyue, do you have such a stone tablet here?"

The mute girl raised her head and shook her head in a daze.

His Highness narrowed his eyes, his mind was uncertain.

"The surname is Wei."

Yi Xiao suddenly thought of something and stood up abruptly.

He walked to the wall covered with yellow paper, his face was gloomy, and he stared at the previously uncovered area.

There is the drawing paper on which Shuiyue once recorded the traces of chess master Wei Haoran, and the mottled wall is connected with the yellow paper that has no traces clearly.

"Tear"

Shuiyue turned her head in a daze, and saw His Highness facing the wall, squinting his eyes, with a dignified expression, stretched out his arm and slowly peeled off a piece of yellow paper.

Yi Xiao stared at the drawing paper in his hand.

On the drawing paper, the man in the red shirt was smiling, lowering his head to carve. The jade carving in his hands was half finished, and the carved object could not be seen clearly.

This piece of drawing paper and Wei Haoran's drawing paper are almost pasted together, sticking to each other and being involved.

It was written by Shuiyue at the same time.

His Highness raised his head again.

He took off the two drawing papers again.

One picture depicts a monk in white robes, shaved off all the troubles, with a handsome face, but his eyes are blurred with drunkenness, with one hand standing on his chest with compassion, pinching one of the 36 red beads, and raising his arm with the other hand to hold a wine pot, looking up to get drunk Thirty-six thousand games.

The second picture depicts a gauze luthier, whose beautiful face is completely covered by white gauze, sitting on a red coffin, holding a plain qin in his arms, with red sleeves adding fragrance, while raising one hand and lowering the other, playing the strings upside down. , the bright red color jumps on the paper.

Think of Wei Haoran.

Yi Xiao's face was gloomy, thinking of those names that he had seen in Wanjin Houhou's mansion.

Qin Xiutu.Zhong Tian said.Su Hongyue.

Luoyang is the seventh red moon in July, and the old fox in white robe mentioned these former comrades, just a faint and sad sentence.

They are all ordinary people who died without a name.

But judging from the clues witnessed in the Buddha's bones, it seems that the truth is not the case.
At least Wei Haoran is a character who should never die silently!
"Did they die in the Buddha's skeleton?"

Yi Xiao touched the figure on the drawing paper and murmured, "This is the clue!"

Shuiyue, who rummaged through boxes and chests, took out a large black robe from the wooden house, handed it to His Royal Highness, and gestured for Yi Xiao to put it on. Seeing that the size fit her right, she couldn't help but get excited, and then wrote on the paper: " Next, is the period of deep sleep. We can sneak out."

The little highness put on a big black robe with a strange complexion, and asked, "What is the deep sleep period?"

Shuiyue gently stroked the hair on her forehead, with a smile that could not be concealed in her eyes, and slowly wrote: "There is no sunrise in Luoyang Town, and eternal night is coming. After those monsters left, the big moon was covered by red clouds." This is the 'deep sleep period'. They are the 'people' in the town. They fell into a deep sleep before the eternal night, until the end of the 'deep sleep period', until the red clouds dissipated and the big moon reappeared, to wake up."

His Highness said thoughtfully: "I understand. From what you said, the 'deep sleep period' is a relatively safe period of travel?"

Shuiyue was overjoyed, and nodded.

No wonder this town is so dead and silent, His Highness suddenly realized that he happened to step on a very ingenious time here.

Then Yi Xiao said softly: "There is another question about 'them'. Why did 'they' sleep?"

The mute girl was slightly stunned, thought for a while, and wrote after a long time of serious thinking: "It may be because of memory. Because 'they' can't remember the time, they only have a moment of memory forever, and some even have twelve hours of memory None. And the blank period of memory is during this time."

Yi Xiao took a deep look at the mute girl, and continued to ask: "'Deep sleep period'. Since it is when they fall into a deep sleep, it must be time to delete their memories?"

After hearing the words, the mute girl was at a loss, not knowing how to speak.

His Highness looked at the dumb girl who was pretending to be ignorant, and didn't point it out.

Why should the people of these towns fall into a deep sleep, but she doesn't need it?
Why do people in these towns have no memory, but she does?

Even, she uttered the four words "Six Paths of Buddha's Bones", but it was not wiped out?
In Xuan Shangyu's game, such a loophole is too big.

Yi Xiao's face was calm, looking at this kind-faced little girl, still smiling sweetly, she shook her head secretly.

Was it because she really didn't know she was in the trap, or was she pretending to be ignorant even though she was clearly exquisite?

In any case, Yi Xiao has already become vigilant in her heart. For this dumb girl who is obviously not as simple as she appears on the surface, she can't trust her completely, and she can't trust her completely, at least she should put her mind on it.

But now, since she can play the role of providing clues, she might as well make good use of it, at least find out the information of the next stone tablet.

This is the case with the game of life and death.

You and I are smiling and slashing at each other.

No one knows who will make the knife in the next second, and whether the innocent smiling girl behind her is the chess piece that caused the chess master surnamed Wei to fall short?

Yi Xiao couldn't say for sure, and didn't dare to gamble.

He can only trust her with the most tolerant kindness, and at the same time, he is not afraid to defend her with the most insidious malice.

And the dumb girl who seemed to have no premonition about the change in Yi Xiao's attitude was still smiling innocently, and she wrote seriously on the paper: "I know there is a place where you should be able to find the stele you want. Right here Sun Never Set Inn, there is a second floor, and no one is allowed to enter the second floor."

The little Highness, who put on a large black robe, did not ask the Sun Never Set Inn, but calmly asked: "That man in the red shirt, did he also fall into a 'sleep'?"

Shui Yue nodded of course.

The whole town fell into a deep sleep?

Even the man in the red shirt who was obviously different fell into a deep sleep?

Yi Xiao finally couldn't help but asked, "Then why don't you need it?"

Shuiyue was at a loss.

It seemed that it was the first time for her to think about this question, her thin eyebrows were tangled, and her eyes were a little absent-minded. The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't understand it, and the more she got stuck in it.

In the end, she could only shake her head slowly.

"I have no idea."

Depressed, the dumb woman wrote on a piece of paper: "I can't remember anything."

She gritted her teeth, mustered up her courage, looked at the little highness in black robe, wrote a few words at last, and then scribbled them out.

Yi Xiao just glanced lightly.

I saw clearly the line that was crossed out, "Can you help me?"

He sighed slightly and said nothing more.

Maybe it's because of the scarlet stone tablet.

The more Yi Xiao couldn't see through this little girl named Shuiyue, the more suspicious she felt. She always felt that it was a chess piece played by Xuanshang Yu'an, or an old monster in Buddha's skeleton.

It's hard to say that you are uneasy and kind, but when you have doubts, it is hard to get rid of them.

His Royal Highness finally touched Shuiyue's head with a complex expression.

The mute girl blinked.

The dumb girl couldn't understand the Sanskrit, and couldn't understand the sentence "This is hell, and the only ones imprisoned are evil spirits" engraved on the scarlet stone tablet, so she didn't know why the black-clothed boy's eyes were different from before. s difference.

But she read those eyes with great intelligence.

She knew that he understood the contents of the stele.

Shuiyue pursed her lips quietly, lowered her head, silently picked up the dark blue cloak, turned her back, squeezed out a sunny smile from her face little by little, turned around again, and picked up the drawing paper.

There is a line of small characters next to the crossed out handwriting.

"Take me, I'll help you find the monument."

His Highness felt a little helpless, looking at the dumb girl's pitiful expression.

She handed over the drawing paper again, she gritted her teeth and pressed her lips, and I felt pity for her. She stretched out a hand and slightly tugged at the sleeve of His Highness's large black robe.

Yi Xiao sighed, "It's not that I don't take you with me, but I'm worried about your safety."

The dumb girl Yueya'er's eyes already had a faint layer of mist.

"If the man in the red shirt wakes up, I won't care about you." Yi Xiao said with a straight face, "Are you afraid?"

Shuiyue firmly wrote: "Not afraid."

"I really don't need to be together." Yi Xiao said helplessly: "I am enough alone, why do you join in the fun?"

The mute girl hurriedly wrote: "I can sense the stele, which can save you a lot of effort."

The little Highness, who was not greedy for benefits, still shook his head.

The expression on the mute girl's face had changed from joy to sadness, her smile gradually faded, and she wrote sadly, "Trust me."

Yi Xiao stared at these three words for a long time.

The mute girl felt uneasy, as if she was waiting for a word.

Finally, His Royal Highness said softly: "Don't make trouble for me."

Shuiyue, who was holding the paper, was overjoyed again after hearing the words.
