Chapter 16: The Academy of Nowhere

As soon as I came out, I was faced with a strong damp and cold wind. Looking at the wide sea with the tide rolling, the dim yellow sunset was half hanging in the sky, as if it would be swept away by the waves at any time.

Looking back at where we came from, I saw the golden pillar reaching up to the sky, still standing upright and reaching far into the depths of the clouds.

"Did we come out of the pillar?"

Although I saw the depiction of the basalt spirit beast behind the golden seat, I still couldn't help pointing at the golden pillar and asking Qin Shihuan in amazement after seeing the real scene of this unknown height.

"It should be." Qin Shihuan said with a smile, and moved his eyes to show me to look at my feet.

"What's so funny!" Knowing that he was teasing my fuss, I gave him a cold look, and followed his instructions, I also rolled my eyes.

The blue-black floor tiles under the feet are paved one by one, and the golden pillars are used as the center of the circle to form a vast arc, all the way down to the sea.

With a thought in my mind, I said uncertainly, "We...couldn't be...really on the back of that basalt soul beast?"

"Don't you know if you look at it?"

Qin Shihuan still had an annoying smile, knowing that he was teasing on purpose, I was too lazy to tangle with him any longer, so I snorted softly, turned around and sacrificed the Dragon Soul Sword, and landed on the sword with a sudden inspiration , Flying on the imperial line, fell into the air behind the golden pillar, looked at the wide field of vision, and saw this huge soul beast clearly from top to bottom.

Probably because the afterglow of the setting sun was burning my eyes, I narrowed my eyes slightly.

This tortoise shell, hundreds of miles wide, floats on the surface of the sea, with the golden pillar reaching to the sky, pulling its mountain-like limbs, slowly swimming towards the half-sinking sunset.

For a moment, I just felt that the creation of all things is really incredible, but it is so magnificent and beautiful, which makes people feel amazed and admired.

"Roar!"

Suddenly there was a hissing sound, I looked for the sound, and saw a dragon's head the size of several mountains rising in front of the turtle shell, and it was hissing upwards.The voice was thick and long, and it sounded quite pleasant, and I couldn't help but feel a little relieved.At this moment, a huge black shadow suddenly hit in front of me, I hurriedly urged the Dragon Soul Sword to avoid it, and when I stabilized my figure, I realized that the black shadow was actually a huge long snake tail not much thinner than the dragon's head .

The head of the dragon and the tail of the snake, the body of the turtle shell, and the basalt.

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a loud bang, and the tail of the snake hit the sea with a slap, causing huge splashes, like rain, covering my head and face, and splashing the salty sea water in my mouth, choking me. Coughing endlessly.

I was coughing uncomfortably, and suddenly I heard a chuckle, and then the laugh seemed to keep on laughing, so that I stared at him with a glance, "Qin Shihuan, ahem... If you have the ability, you can do it too." Give me a face like this, I promise to choke you to death!"

"Okay, okay...I won't laugh anymore..."

After a while, I stopped coughing, so I stroked my drenched silver hair, looked coldly at him for several times before I couldn't hold back my smile, and said through gritted teeth, "You are so annoying!"

"Really?" He straightened his body as he spoke, holding back a half-smile expression, "Why do you hate Fa?"

"You!" The expression on his face was against the afterglow of the setting sun, very floating and unreal, just like the feeling he has always given me.

"Anyway, it's just annoying." I bit my lip and said softly, almost unable to hear myself.

For a moment, I floated on the dragon soul sword flying in the royal line, and he was on the back of the huge soul beast walking along the water, looking from a distance, the cold sea breeze blew me so softly that I didn't want to talk, I just felt like This is fine too.

As the setting sun gradually sank in, Qin Shihuan's figure also gradually darkened. This kind of darkness gave a feeling of sinking deep.I looked carefully, and found that Xuanwu was going to the bottom of the sea at a visible speed. Without thinking, I hurriedly said, "Hey! Come here!" As soon as the words came out, I felt something was wrong, and said , "Take Mu Qing and leave quickly, that Xuanwu is sinking!"

"I know." He said lightly, turning around, looking at the almost endless setting sun, "It's really a blessing to be able to enjoy such a beautiful scenery on the back of Xuanwu. The matter is over, you can take your friends and leave."

"Could it be that the head of Wuxiang Academy is someone who only knows how to appreciate the beauty of the world, but doesn't know how to say and do what he promises?" I thought that the friendship of fellowship is not very deep, but at least it is not a farewell. I never thought, he I really thought so.A faint sourness floated in his heart, he bit his lips and stubbornly provoked him with the words he answered at the bottom of the tunnel, as if expecting him to change his mind.

"I didn't answer you." The indifference and alienation in his words instantly annihilated my last glimmer of expectation.Thinking about it carefully, he did not respond to me, and for a while I didn't know how to refute.

His clothes fluttered endlessly under the sea breeze, and he seemed to disappear at any time.

"Okay. I'll go." He was estranged to the end, without any intention of being tied down.An inexplicable annoyance floated in my heart, and I was no longer polite in my words. I turned around and helped Mu Qing who was leaning against the golden pillar who was still asleep, raised the Dragon Soul Sword, turned and left.

A few miles away, a little bit of grievance in my heart flooded, I couldn't figure out why he had changed like a different person, he was extremely alienated, and couldn't help turning his head back.

As the last bit of light disappeared, he still stood on Xuanwu's back with his back facing him, his alienated figure sank into the deep sea together with Xuanwu, and finally disappeared without a trace.

"It's... really annoying..."

I took Mu Qing back to the Scarlet Pavilion.

This is the only place I can think of to put him.

Indeed, as I thought, the people in Jianghong Pavilion took good care of him.

When he came to me three days later, he looked fine.

At that time, I was drinking peach blossom drunk in the wing room on the second floor.

In the world, there are always some wonderful things, such as wine.

What happened in the tomb of the Ji family made me a little confused, and Gungun hadn't come back yet. I was thinking that if it didn't come back, I would go to Wenfu or Qingzhimen to look for it.

I suddenly miss it.

"Where is Xi Lin?"

Why is this sentence again, it is really a headache.I was drunk for a few days, and thinking about it like this made my head hurt even more.

Holding my head that seemed about to fall at any time, I looked at this young man with drunken eyes, with a stern and stern look on my face, and I felt like teasing him a bit.

"Ming Laoqi is stronger than you, she followed the powerful person."

"You're talking nonsense!" He slapped the table and swept down all the remaining wine jars on the table. For a moment, the sound of cracking exploded in my ears, making me irritated.

"Nonsense! What nonsense! It's you! It's you all talking nonsense!" I was also annoyed, I slapped the table and stood up, glaring at him and said, "You are all lying to me! You are all lying to me!"

I wanted to cry for some reason, my words were full of tears, I couldn't help but the corners of my eyes were sour and hot, and the hot liquid flooded under the mask.

Mu Qing was probably frightened by me, she was stunned for a moment, opened her mouth, and wanted to say something, but finally her eyes slipped, she thought for a few times, she pursed her lips and looked at me without saying a word.

I cried for a while, my head hurt more and more, my mind was very confused, my body couldn't hold on and I lay down on the table again, falling into a coma.

When she woke up again, she met Mu Qing's sad eyes.

Looking at the broken wine jars on the ground, I thought, I seem to be insane.

"Well... I didn't say anything too much, did I?" I glanced at him lowly.

"Did you... take me for someone?" Mu Qing lowered her eyebrows and looked at me closely.

"Ah? Well... that counts." I felt so embarrassed that I suddenly didn't dare to look at him again.

"I don't care who you think of me as, I don't want to have anything to do with you. Right now, the reason why I came here is to let you tell me, where did Xi Lin go?" He seemed anxious, and the veins on his forehead were all twisted out.

I thought he was completely impatient, so I had to tell him the whole process.

After he finished listening, his face was ashen, and he said, "The rumors about the volume of Wuxiang Academy's potential have existed for a long time, but they are all rumors for a hundred years. Whether it is true or not, there is no way to verify it. But since he decided to start, it must be I'm sure, if I can really deal with that God of War and get Xi Lin back, I'm going to try it no matter how difficult it is. "

"What is the origin of this Wuxiang Academy, and what is Wuxiang Academy?" I saw that he said a few things, and I thought I had some clues about that Wuxiang Academy, so I wanted to take this opportunity to find out what was going on with Wuxiang Academy.

"You don't know?" He squinted at me, as if he didn't believe it.

"Well, I really don't know." I nodded and said seriously.

He narrowed his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he said, "No one knows when Wuxiang Academy was founded. But every time he appears, people from all walks of life will covet it. It is rumored that it has ancient magic books that are as famous as the scroll of destiny. The volume of the terrain of the book. Both volumes were held by the ancient beasts. Later, the beasts lost their power, and the volume of destiny disappeared. In the rumors of the year, it is said that the terrain scrolls are kept in Wuxiang Academy. A hundred years ago, Wuxiang Academy contacted the Ji family and helped the Ji family to rule the world. This further confirmed the rumors that the terrain scrolls were in Wuxiang Academy, and also Added to the rumors of its power."

"Why do you say that?"

"The so-called scroll of fate is what fate belongs to. That is to say, it records the fate of every person and every flower and plant on it. The scroll of terrain is based on destiny, and the manipulation of cause and effect is used as a means to achieve what you want. An important destiny. Like a game of chess, each piece is the same but different. The terrain roll is like a vertical and horizontal chess, and the resulting situation can be the same or different. Thousands of changes, as long as you If you think about it, there will be no impossible situation.”

I thought about what he said, and some doubts arose in my heart, "Since it is destiny, then there is an established destiny. According to what you said, if you change it at will, how can it be called destiny?"

"The destiny! The destiny!" Mu Qing stood up abruptly, "What people can do is for the destiny!"

"Then what if your status and your actions are originally arranged by destiny?" I smiled lightly, wanting to hear his next answer.

When Mu Qing heard this, his face turned pale, and he lowered his head and tried his best to think about something. After a while, cold sweat began to ooze from the corners of his forehead, and his lips trembled, "Then what... so what... I ...how to..."

He was completely lost in his own delusions, and I was afraid that he would be in a state of confusion, so I quickly shouted, "Mu Qing!"

"Ah!" Mu Qing's body trembled, and he woke up with a start. The fearful eyes flashed in his eyes, and then he raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, "Thank you."

"Are you okay?" I asked him worriedly.

"No problem." He shook his head.

"So...what is Wufang Sanqian?" My second question finally came out.

"It's the test questions for the admission of students in Wuxiang Academy. The first question is No, the second question is Yes, the third question is Nowhere..." After he finished speaking, his brows were clear and bright, his expression was in a trance, and he walked frivolously to the door of the wing .

I don't know what he thought of again, the back looks so depressed, maybe it has something to do with Lin Xilin again.

I rubbed the space between my brows, used my inspiration to drive away the alcohol, and planned to take care of everything that happened now.

I used the wine cups on the table to represent Master, Gun Gun, Qin Shihuan, Mu Qing, Lin Xilin, Ming Laoqi, and God of War.

Master came out of Lengjiyuan for the first time on the day I became incarnated. I waited under the tree of life and death for an unknown amount of time, but what I waited for was that Master came back with wounds all over. , When I collapsed and wanted to die, I was brought out of the Lengjiyuan by the dragon's breath with the breath of a master.

The dragon soul is immortal, which makes me sure that the master is not truly extinguished.

When I came out of Lengjiyuan, I faced the runaway mountain spirit. I met the little fox Dagon, and then I fell into a coma for no reason. I was awakened by the little fox with its blood energy, and I met the first soul beast in the vast wilderness.

At this time, I found that the mountain ghosts and spirit beasts have a strange desire for me that is almost bloodthirsty and bone-devouring. This desire was finally used by Ming Laoqi to lead me deep into the Bone Tomb. The banned spirit bone used this desire Inspired the power of the soul bone, breaking through the ban, the scattered power of the soul bone was fully absorbed by Ming Laoqi, and at the same time, it also awakened the God of War in the Golden Throne.

God of War... This dead bone is closely related to the mural. On the one hand, it exists in the same dry body as the master. The appearance of my incarnation resembles her in seven or eight parts, so looking at it, she is more persuasive than the power of the dragon soul in Mu Qing's body, which is closer to the master.

Before I met Mu Qing, I first met Qin Shihuan in the forest. Whether it was the first encounter in the forest, the incident on the South and North Streets of Jianghong Pavilion, or everything that happened in the tomb of Ji's family, he always appeared inexplicably along the way, and often brought other people with him. The meaningful words made me feel that he was deliberately waking up, and he was also the master of Wuxiang Academy, which was rumored to have a scroll of terrain.Mysterious and gentle, this is the impression he gave me.

I lightly stroked my upper lip, remembering the feeling of that touch, Qin Shihuan's calm and unruffled eyes were vividly in front of me, and suddenly a little resentment arose in my heart, if it was a master, what expression would he make?

"It's really annoying." I laughed, and I was a little amused that I was still thinking about these things at this time. I patted my cheek lightly, put aside irrelevant thoughts, and turned my eyes to the one representing Mu Qing. Only on the wine cup.

Turning the wine cup and stroking its rim, my heart was like running water for a moment, I didn't know what to think.What came to mind was the appearance of him and Lin Xilin facing each other.Longxi is the backbone of the master, and he is willing to melt it in Mu Qing's heart to save his life. I can't think of any other reason for him to do so except that he is the master.He and Lin Xilin have such a deep relationship, and I care so much about Master. I can't bear to destroy his relationship with Lin Xilin, and I don't want to let go of my joy for Master. Only when everything is really in front of you can you face the final choice.Whether it's the master's or mine.

Before that, I not only have to protect him, but also Lin Xilin, the charmer.

Lin Xilin is such a charmer, so beautiful that people feel pity and can't hate her.And she seemed to have known Mu Qing since a long time ago, if she was really taken away by the God of War, then there must be something about her that the God of War cared about.

Dagon not only saved me, but also gave me a very strange Fangwuzhi stolen from the clan. What kind of existence is there in a place with such a strange book?

Ming Lao Qi knows the identity of the God of War, but what kind of relationship does the Ji family have with the God of War?Why does Ji's family, a mortal, have soul beasts guarding the tomb, and there is such a powerful god of war in the tomb, and why does his face look the same as Qin Shihuan's?

The mysterious Qin Shihuan finally has a point that seems to be broken through, but this point is not so easy to break through the relationship between the God of War and Ming Laoqi.

Listed one by one, the relationship between Mu Qing and Lin Xilin is interactive, Gun Gun is independent, and the Ji family not only has Qing Zhimen's grievances with Mu Qing, but is also related to the God of War in the tomb.The God of War is related to Qin Shihuan, and Qin Shihuan's Wuxiang Academy is related to the Ji family's original volume of power.The Volume of Power, the rumored ancient book, according to Ji Mingye's words, seems to be able to pose a certain threat to the God of War.

The circle of the Ji family can be linked together, and I stood outside the circle, looking at God of War and looking at Mu Qing, it seems that only these two points are most closely related to me.The God of War's power is unfathomable, and she doesn't know where she went now, and her memory seems to be broken, so it may not be able to explain the question I want to ask.

Mu Qing's plan is to follow Ji Mingye from Wuxiang Academy, so that the Ji family will be on the bright side.

Right now, I am afraid that there is only Wuxiang Academy.

I put the wine cup representing the master in the innermost circle surrounded by several other people, while I stood outside the circle, watching silently, feeling very tired in my heart.

What is such a big ring for?

If I didn't make Master angry that day, and Hei Yan burned me, wouldn't Master not leave, and all this wouldn't have happened?

Although Lengjiyuan is endlessly dark and cold, it is always the warmest existence for me compared to this world.

I sighed lightly, put away all the wine cups and put them away, thinking in my heart, where should I go to find Gungun.

Gungun is outside the independent circle, but I asked it to find the book of ancient objects left by Ji Mingche, which already involved it, how could I let it go?
