[Wei Nie] Vertical and horizontal killing

It was getting dark, and there was a bonfire in the forest.

Everyone gathered together, and their eyes were cast on a small five-story wooden exquisite pagoda held by Princess Yan.

The reason why the phantom sound treasure box appeared in the Mohist forbidden area has long been submerged in the long-standing war and disputes.But judging from the fact that the Yin-Yang family cursed the Mo family's giants to die under the six-hundred horror curse, the enmity between the two sects has long been deep and difficult to resolve.

The people of the Mo family formed a circle, and all opened their eyes wide to look at the exquisite pagoda in Gao Yue's hand.

Bandit Zhi rubbed his chin and smacked his lips: "This—is the treasure box of phantom sound that the Yin Yang family has been looking for in the legend?"

Xue Nu couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing: "From your tone, it seems that you are very familiar with this thing?"

Robber Zhi raised his eyebrows and said with a sneer: "This is preserved in the forbidden area of ​​the Mohist Organ City. Even if I don't know the reason, it doesn't prevent me from respecting it."

Gao Yue's voice sounded: "Illusory Rhythm Twelve, Five Tune Non-music, Blissful Heavenly Rhyme, Thousands of Magical Sounds." She spoke extremely slowly, and the girl's voice had changed from crisp and childish to clear and gentle.

Robber Zhi came over and wanted to take a closer look: "Is it written in Chu State?"

Tianming immediately showed off with the knowledge he had: "Eastern Emperor Taiyi is the god of Chu State, and the treasures of the Yin Yang family may have a great relationship with Chu State. My Mohist patriarch is better than mechanism techniques, and this phantom sound treasure box is all controlled by mechanisms. Maybe it was created by my ancestor of the Mohist school, and the Yinyang family took it as their own."

Robber Zhi: "Tsk tsk tsk, such a treasure, I have never heard this treasure box play music."

The veiled girl's eyes remained unmoved, gazing at the small and exquisite pagoda, just like gazing at her lover: "It's both illusion and reality, ever-changing. This is Chinese music in troubled times, a requiem song for the dead."

Wei Zhuang interrupted them slowly: "In the past, Mozi thought that he would take away the people's food and clothing to make himself happy. The Mohist, who advocated non-joy, created music for others to comfort souls in troubled times. Isn't this a kind of irony?"

The people of the Mo family dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

Bandit Zhi put his hips on his hips and said, "You, do you have to speak like this?"

Chi Lian grinned and said, "You people of the Mo family, why don't you like to listen to the truth so much?"

Gai Nie interrupted this meaningless conversation at the right time. He said: "The five-tone and twelve-tone rhythm, the key to cracking the formation is probably hidden in the law implied by the rhythm. Then the mechanism that is opened must correspond to the stars. track."

Gao Yue raised her head and looked at him: "Mister also understands rhythm?"

Gai Nie has always been humble: "I only know that in the 18th year of King Xiang, Chu Shi defeated Zheng, second only to Yuling, and Shi Kuang Le occupied."

Wei Zhuang snorted coldly: "Wrinkles sent troops to conquer in the past, there is a precedent for divination of good and bad with music, so what's so strange about it?"

The Mo family was silent for a while.

Tianming quickly joked: "You don't know that the three of us put our lives on the tightrope to walk in the dragon's throat in the forbidden area that day. There are hidden weapons all around. We have to find the phantom sound treasure box and crack it before it sinks into the ground. The secret." He used extremely exaggerated gestures: "It all depends on Yue'er's familiarity with the rhythm. At the last moment, when we were about to be pierced by a sharp knife, Yue'er found the rhythm to crack." He said Hehe laughed, and came to a conclusion: "So the lives of me and Shaoyu were saved by Yue'er."

The master class hammered his hand: "Great, we have a chance to get out of here."

Except for Gao Yue, Xue Nu was the most proficient in rhythm among the group of people. She frowned and raised her head: "Look, the stars in the sky have come out."

Everyone looked up at the pitch-black sky, in which the stars twinkled like sparks.

At that moment, the ancient melody seems to be remembered, it seems far away, it seems broken and continuous, ethereal and far away, it is a ray of ancient sound in the silence.

Listening carefully, it was the faint sound from the phantom sound treasure box.

The body of the five-story Linglong Pagoda began to rotate in Gao Yue's hands at some point, and the internal gears made a slight sound of turning, and the delicate and delicate star map above the eaves rotated and moved accordingly.

"The beauty of heaven and earth is incomparable, woohoo." Someone sighed.

Everyone has the same sound, same frequency, and same thinking in their hearts.

The sound is loud, the sound is so ingenious, and the thought of good and evil can conquer ghosts and gods.

The heaven, earth and stars have never changed.

What changes is always the world of flesh and blood with endless desires.

Gao Yue's voice came faintly: "Have you all seen it? The only constant star, she, is there."

Since ancient times, Taibai came out of the East.

At sunset, people in ancient times saw the most dazzling star in the western sky and found that its trajectory remained unchanged until dawn, so they called her "Chang Gung Star".Dawn represents hope, and dusk is a metaphor for this death.

All these come from the trajectory of the same star.

Wei Zhuang's voice sounded, as if passing through the long darkness, bringing out the indifference of the world: "Waiting for hope in death, this is what the world has been looking for. Is it the answer you have been looking for?"

In his last sentence, he was interrogating another descendant of Guigu.

Gai Nie was the only one who closed his eyes and never looked up at the sky. To him, the question from his junior brother reminded him of a kind of attachment that can only be understood by each other.He didn't answer this question, because he believed that Wei Zhuang already had the answer.

Gai Nie's calm voice broke everyone's obsession: "Tianming, what did you see when you were underwater?"

The topic suddenly turned back to Tianming. The little giant scratched his head, shook his head and thought for a while, then stretched out his finger and said mysteriously: "When I saw Yuanhong at the bottom of the water, I noticed that there seemed to be a few light spots on one side. Now that I think about it, How could there be a light source under the water? It was just that I was holding my breath and thought it was my eyes that were blurred."

Gai Nie hit the point straight: "How many dots of light can you remember?"

Tianming closed his eyes, his face became serious, as if he was a different person.After a while, when it opened, it said with certainty: "Five."

Xuenv: "Juzi, are you so sure?"

Tianming pointed to his own head with his finger: "Don't underestimate my ingenuity, I can re-read the things I have experienced at the critical moment of life here. Not everyone has this kind of ability."

Xuenv lowered her head and bent over to look at him with a smile: "Are you so sure? So you don't need to check again?"

Tianming shook his head and said, "Don't forget, when my uncle and I went to the Mohist Trick City for the first time, when we passed the grid with the sun and moon pattern, I just glanced at it and memorized the pattern. "

Teacher Ban also remembered that incident, and raised his eyebrows: "You still have the nerve to mention that incident, that prank almost scared us all to death!"

Robo Zhi also remembered what happened at that time, winked at Tianming and said, "That, that time, that time was quite fun."

Duanmu Rong looked at him coldly.

Bandit Zhi immediately corrected his attitude: "It's just too worrying."

Tianming said, "Anyway, I won't remember wrongly."

Gai Nie: "Tianming, can you draw it or describe the directions of those light spots?"

Tianming frowned and thought for a while, picked up a branch, and began to draw on the wet ground, muttering to himself: "This location...and, like this...there is a huge stone here, and Yuanhong just fell into it. Landed here. And then...here's a..."

After finishing painting and throwing away the branch, Tianming clapped his hands and stood up, looked around, expressed his satisfaction, and then shouted: "Uncle, come and see—"

Everyone watched silently, and then went to look at Gai Nie, only to realize that the corners of Gai Nie's eyes had not recovered.

Tianming also thought of this, and said, "Uncle, shall we cure your eyes together first?"

Gai Nie shook his head calmly: "No need, you guys already have enough ability to find the mechanism trick this time."

Tianming didn't have much confidence in himself: "But uncle..."

Gai Nie said directly: "If there is no mistake, these five light spots represent Chen Xing, Taibai, Yinghuo, Sui Xing, and Zhen Xing respectively, corresponding to the five stars of gold, wood, water, fire, earth since ancient times." He turned his head to Tianming: "The arrangement of the five stars in the sky and the earth has its own rules. If Jiang Ziya, who is in this place where the dragon is trapped, arranged it, then the arrangement at this time must be related to Taigongwang."

Wei Zhuang closed his eyes: "The celestial phenomenon when King Wu defeated Zhou."

Xuenv didn't understand: "But Gai Nie also said that King Wen was still imprisoned at that time. Could it be that King Wu dispatched troops earlier than the time he had already calculated?"

Wei Zhuang sneered: "It was King Wen who was imprisoned, but his two sons were not imprisoned."

Everyone choked, Robber Zhi opened his eyes wide: "You mean, no matter whether King Wen is released or not, at that time, the people of Zhou will rise up, and the son doesn't care whether I live or die?"

Wei Zhuang smiled mockingly: "Is this hard to understand?"

Master class: "But they are father and son."

Both Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang stopped talking, one felt that there was no need to explain, and the other didn't bother to explain.

On the contrary, Chi Lian brushed his hair, and said in a charming voice with a hypocritical smile: "Father and son, monarch and minister, blood relationship is just a stumbling block. As long as you are born in a princely family, who remembers father and son brother? You guys People here may not have the chance to understand this truth.”

Tianming was not convinced and said: "Why do you seem to know everything? Yue'er is also the princess of Yan Kingdom."

Chi Lian raised her mouth, blood flashed in her eyes, like the fire of the New Deal.Her bright red lips pursed, and she said slowly: "If the Yan Kingdom was destroyed a few years later, she might understand what I said." After she finished speaking, she smiled grinningly: "Little girl, maybe you can be a country that has perished." It is a lucky thing for my princess to freeze the memory of her homeland in the old fragments of family affection, and never experience the pain of growing up."

Everyone was silent for a while, only the slight crackling sound of burning wood.

Zhou people said that Boyi Kaojiu's husband was chopped into meat paste, and King Wen ate his son's flesh and blood with a smile, just to get out of trouble.The other son who stayed in Xiqi finally achieved an 800-year dynasty, and the historian praised him, but who really understood the life and death choices of the emperor's family.

Robber Zhi came out to smooth things over: "Okay, we understand what you mean for now. If the time for the Zhou people to send troops has already been calculated, how does this relate to the five light spots we saw today?"
