"Wait a minute." A faint voice came from behind. Pei Ye turned his head and saw Li Xizhou turning around to close the door.
Jinmian turned around and walked over: "Didn't I tell you not to walk alone in the palace?"
Pei Ye smiled and stopped to wait for her: "Don't show any sign of betrayal when you get the Qilin Fire tomorrow. After I get it, I will deliberately walk alone in the palace to trick Yu Sicheng into falling into my trap."
"Qilin Fire is only to help you sharpen your sword, it's not going to kill Yu Sicheng with one shot." Li Xizhou glanced at him, "Last night you said you didn't know if you could win, and today you're pretending to be the most powerful again."
"Your Highness does not understand. Confidence is the swordsman's second sword."
“I really don’t understand.”
The two walked westward, and Li Xizhou looked at Zhu Chi's icy surface: "Then do you think that Qilin Fire must be Yu Sicheng's natural enemy?"
Pei Ye was slightly startled: "...There is no such thing as certainty in this world, but, it's always about 80% to 90% certain."
He looked at the woman. "Your Highness, didn't you investigate with me? The debris melted into seven twisted holes. The battlefield twenty years ago was filled with embers. The old blood left on it is the blood of the royal family... and it is your blood."
"Even so," Pei Ye continued, "Guo You said that was his weakness left in the Mercury Hua Fu Cha. And this immortal body placed within the palace wall is only controlled by the royal blood and cannot be violated. Isn't this the most reasonable explanation?"
Li Xizhou was silent for a while, then nodded: "Yes, but I always have other feelings... I'll tell you when I figure it out."
"Tell me about it." Pei Ye could never suppress his curiosity.
"He's had this problem since he was a child. He's deep-minded, sensitive and suspicious." Li Xizhou glanced at him. These casual words sounded like a threat and a test. She pursed her lips under the mask, but the boy in front of her didn't show any reaction. He just stared at her, waiting for her to continue.
"…Because I think," Li Xizhou retracted his gaze, "[Mercury Hua Fu Cha] may indeed be restrained by fire, but that fire may not be Qilin Fire."
"Why?" Pei Ye was surprised.
"No reason, just suspicion."
"But I have to say that we also checked the nature of the Qilin Fire." Pei Ye said. With the Immortal Hunter holding the fire beside him, he certainly had an accurate judgment on the traces of fire. "Although it is controlled by the Immortal Hunter like the Chi Fire, the Qilin Fire burns from the blood of the Qilin, and the fire stops when the blood is exhausted. It belongs to the material fire among the 'heart, mystery, qi, and matter'. Moreover, it cannot pass through the 'Tao' and does not have the qualifications of the Tao fire... Rather than saying that the Qilin Fire is a power controlled by the Qilin, it is better to say that it is more like a symbol of extreme nobility, just like the tears of a mermaid turning into pearls."
Li Xizhou nodded.
"The Qilin represents auspiciousness and controls the fortune of a country. This golden color does not contain too much terrible destruction, but rather is awe-inspiring and noble. It can purify many dark spiritual arts and wash away poisons, which is the origin of the so-called 'royal blood is not vulnerable to hidden arrows'. It is also the best blood for national sacrifices, which can connect fortune and connect to the will of heaven." Pei Ye said, "The 'spirit' of fire has four levels: breaking the ordinary, recognizing the spirit, knowing the ignorance, and clarifying the mystery. The Qilin fire ranks first in the 'knowledge and ignorance', but it is not good at analyzing arrays, but is specialized in the above characteristics."
Li Xizhou listened quietly.
"Let's talk about the 'heat' of the Kirin Fire again. The rumor that 'all iron melts' can also be inferred. It is probably above the third level, but not necessarily above the fourth level. This is also a suitable temperature that just transcends the mortal world." Pei Ye said, "The embers left under the Mingyue Palace are traces caused by this temperature. If it is one level lower, the tree core will not form charcoal strips; if it is one level higher, the charcoal strips will not be left at all."
"From my perspective, it matches the characteristics of Kirin Fire in every way. Your Highness says it's not, so what kind of fire could it be?"
Li Xizhou was silent for a while, then shook his head: "You're right... So, you inferred that it was its 'spiritual' characteristics that scared [Mercury Hua Fucha]?"
"Well, the dragon bones come from the demon spirits in the water realm, and their nature is yin and cold; the unicorn fire is the highest and most yang, which is in conflict with it." Pei Ye said.
Li Xizhou was slightly stunned: "That makes sense... Is this the theory of Qi Dao? When did Guo You say that?"
"without."
"Oh, did Qu Zhu tell you?"
"No, I looked through Qu Xin's medical book, and it said that the nature of the body is dry and cold." Pei Ye said, "I think it's roughly the same if we can draw inferences from one example."
Li Xizhou turned his head.
"In fact, the only one who knows the final key is Guo You." She passed over the topic without any expression. "I have been trying to chat with him these past few days, and I have also got some clues. If I get anything, I will let you know."
The Yuxian Garden of 23 years ago was no longer the same as before. There were only bare trees and cold snow in the bitter cold. Li Xizhou sat on the stone bench swept clean by the young man, watching him frown as he looked at the old drawings from many years ago, searching for the old ditches that had long been filled with rotten branches, dust and mud.
After a while, he came over with a frown and asked her about the lines on the drawing.
"You hold this page upside down." Li Xizhou glanced at it. "What's the point of looking for this?"
"Hmm!" Pei Ye turned around and left. "Of course there is. You don't remember, but I have been thinking about it. This is the case assigned to Pei Yanjian. I have to solve it."
"oh?"
"Isn't this a major development? Think about it, when Yu Sicheng promoted the construction of Yuxian Garden, it led to the connection between the canal of Jingchi and Taiye Lake." Pei Ye said, "It is because the mirage can only extend in the water."
“…”
"Using this method, they spread the mirage to Jingchi, so He Wujian was able to swim upstream - this case is 70% solved." Pei Ye said, "Then it is obvious that if they want to expand the mirage, they have to use boundary markers. I'll look for it here, maybe I can find something."
If the mirage is a piece of cowhide, the boundary marker is the nail pierced on the edge. Only when the nail moves outward can the cowhide be pulled to extend. This is the image of the mirage in Pei Ye's mind.
When the sky gradually turned yellow, Pei Ye finally dug out this old ditch bit by bit from under the burial of twenty years. He had dug out a section when he brought Li Wuyan here a few days ago, and now he had finally figured out its direction.
But still nothing was found.
Reality is reality, made up of cold earth, old mud, dirty snow and rotten branches, with no trace of mirage.
"It seems that the landmarks do not favor you."
"If there is none, then there is none. It is originally a matter of fate, so I can't hold much hope." Pei Ye did not look discouraged. He carefully wrote down the route, "In fact, there is a more important reason why I came here."
"What?"
"I think this is actually the key to unlocking Luoshen Palace. Yu Sicheng will use this place."
"……Um?"
"That's my guess." Pei Ye put the book away and looked at the old eaves on the top of the mountain. "Didn't you tell me that in Luochuan, it's written that 'the mirage is derived from one thing, no matter how tortuous or deep it is, it should all be connected and considered as one'? I was thinking, since Luoshen Palace and the mirage are essentially the same power, can it really be completely closed and invulnerable?"
"I don't think so." He continued, "From the perspective of Lingxuan Immortal Power, since the source of power is the same, Luoshen Palace and Mirage Realm should maintain some kind of inseparable connection, even if it is very deep; and from a realistic point of view, if this matter is completely impossible, then Yu Sicheng should not have put so much effort into Mirage Realm, but he still let the mermaid pick wood peach blossoms below, which means that he thinks this road can be taken."
"rational."
"It took Yu Sicheng a long time to find Luoshen Palace from the mirage, and I went in to enjoy the result - the location of Luoshen Palace in reality is basically certain to be Jingchi."
"……Um."
"Then it is obvious that the channel of Yuxian Garden twenty-three years ago was the only connection between the Mirage Realm and Luoshen Palace." Pei Ye said, "If there is any weakness in Luoshen Palace, it must be the junction with the Mirage Realm. The Luochuan poem says, 'The connection with the Mirage Realm is through water as the matchmaker and scales as the messenger. Once there is contact, the water gate will open.' I think the meaning lies in this."
"I have traced the source of this waterway," Pei Ye turned his head and pointed to the woman, "Look, it connects to the Taiye Lake, then to the Caoqu outside the palace city, and then to the Weishui River outside the city of Shenjing. After that, the eight rivers are connected to the north and south. In other words, the mirage is indeed one, and then it touches the Luoshen Palace here."
"If there is a hidden 'door' in Luoshen Palace, then it is probably the water curtain we encounter when we go up from here."
"I understand what you mean." Li Xizhou thought for a while, "When two pools of water collide, there will always be a connection, so theoretically there is a possibility of entering Luoshen Palace from here. If the other water curtains are essentially inaccessible, then this place is actually closed by my mother herself, and she built a wall, isolating it with her own methods and strength."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"That's right." Pei Ye said, "So I think, if I were Yu Sicheng, there are two things I must do."
"The first is to rewrite his own body. No matter what, a body rejected by Luoshen Wood Peach cannot enter Luoshen Palace. He did not become a [Blue Wind Envoy], and he kept taking Luoshen Wood Peach. This was probably a preparation for this. But as for how to accomplish this, I still don't have an answer, and I didn't see any traces during the last fight."
"Secondly, to open this water gate, we must cross the step of 'From the Mirage Realm to the Palace of the Goddess of Luo River'. I think it must have something to do with this ditch." Pei Ye looked around, but did not find any signs of the purple-robed eunuch taking any action.
Li Xizhou nodded: "That is to say, you need to change your clothes and open the door before you can visit the Luoshen Palace."
"good."
"I understand what you said, but I have a question."
"Um?"
"I believe there is a water gate here, but if this is the door that the mother closed herself, then who can open it?"
Pei Ye remained silent.
"Mirage City has spent decades trying to come up with only some amphibious mermaids like the Green Wind Envoy, but mother alone was able to build a miracle like Luoshen Palace." Li Xizhou looked at him, "Both sides have a control over this power like heaven and earth. The secrets we have deduced now are probably just common sense to mother... Is there anyone who can understand the connection between the two realms better than, or just see mother's back?"
"..." Pei Ye sighed softly, "This is the only thing I can't figure out."
Yu Sicheng could stab himself a thousand times, but how could he open this door?
If you can't figure it out, just forget about it. It was already late. Pei Ye stretched his body, waited for Li Xizhou to walk half a step in front of him, and then took a step to follow him.
"In fact, I think there is a way that doesn't require any brainpower." Pei Ye smiled, "Forget about the mirage dragon bones. Just invite a few more powerful people to the palace and grab Yu Sicheng and the others to fight together."
"Is this the way of martial arts of Mr. Pei?"
"If you can win, fight alone. If you can't win, lead a group fight. That's how we fought when we were kids." Pei Ye said, "Simple principles are always the most solid."
"I might as well transfer the Longwu Army to help you."
"That's best."
"It's a pity that the palace is not Fenghuai City." Li Xizhou suppressed his smile and sighed, "I don't have anyone to use in the matter of Yu Sicheng. Apart from a freak like you, the only one who can fight him is Yeque, who is really capable. However, the suitable person is either not in Shenjing or has other things to do. And if it is a higher level, Tianlou entering the palace is another matter. The other party is not without such power."
Pei Ye opened his eyes wide, paused for a moment, lowered his head and whispered: "Your Highness, you still have Tianlou serving you."
Li Xizhou turned around and glanced at him indifferently.
"Ah, Tianlou is too powerful. I have seen the Tianlou of Beihai Mansion in Huanlou..." Pei Ye followed her and muttered to himself, "I don't know who the Tianlou here is, what kind of martial arts he knows, and whether he is stronger than that person... There won't be more than one, ah, it would be great if I could meet him..."
Li Xizhou said nothing.
Pei Ye was about to speak louder, but the next moment the two of them paused, restrained their expressions, and looked to the side.
Li Xizhou also looked over there.
This is the bank of Taiye Lake, with many pavilions and gardens. To the north is Qiongju Garden. At this time, the remaining glow on the ice surface had just faded, and the faint angry voice of a young girl was heard from the other side.
"Did I tell you not to let her go again!" The crisp voice was almost out of control, followed by a few slight muffled sounds. Li Xizhou did not hear it, but Pei Ye caught it.
Before Li Xizhou could say anything, he had already moved away very quickly.
"I've already said it! This marriage is mine! Mine! How can you be so shameless, so, so cheap!"
The girl had a pretty face, a rare beauty, her eyes were like peach blossoms, and her tail was slightly raised, making her look lively and bright. But what was more eye-catching was her dress, which was probably the most exquisite and noble dress Pei Ye had seen since entering Shenjing. Every part of her head and body was carefully designed, and the boots she used to kick people were embroidered with fine gold thread.
However, at this moment, her eyes were raised, her lips were pursed, her face was flushed, and her voice was shrill... It was hard to imagine that such an angry expression would appear on this face, making it look extremely ugly.
She stared fiercely at the maid lying on the ground: "Do you really need me to beat you to death?!"
She raised her hand high towards the maid's face, but the next moment an iron-like hand grabbed her wrist.
She turned around suddenly and saw a boy who was half a head taller than her looking at her sternly.
Jinmian turned around and walked over: "Didn't I tell you not to walk alone in the palace?"
Pei Ye smiled and stopped to wait for her: "Don't show any sign of betrayal when you get the Qilin Fire tomorrow. After I get it, I will deliberately walk alone in the palace to trick Yu Sicheng into falling into my trap."
"Qilin Fire is only to help you sharpen your sword, it's not going to kill Yu Sicheng with one shot." Li Xizhou glanced at him, "Last night you said you didn't know if you could win, and today you're pretending to be the most powerful again."
"Your Highness does not understand. Confidence is the swordsman's second sword."
