Toad Palace Spring and Autumn

The faint light came through from the exit, showing a hazy blue color in the water.The hole is semicircular, not very regular but fortunately big enough for a person to pass through quickly and effortlessly.When Yue Yinlin surfaced, he found that this was a cave connected to the leylines of the pool next door. The water close to the surface was very shallow, and the water channel went all the way to the outside.There are stone steps on the side, and the steps generally extend to a high ground in front.There are many natural cracks in the strange rocks above the cave, and the light leaks in from there.When he was looking at the surrounding terrain, there was a sudden buzzing in his ear, and another person emerged from the water.It's nineteen.

"you are too slow."

Yue Yinlin said, without even looking at him, he came out of the water and stepped on the stone pedals to the high ground.

Nineteen looked at his elegant back and soft wet hair from behind, and felt lost for a moment.Dizzy, he followed up, turned a few turns, and suddenly saw a row of neat stone doors built by manpower, similar in style to wing rooms.

Yue Yinlin looked at the room with clear layers and connected corridors and verandas, and suddenly curled up the corners of his lips, thinking that there really is something wrong here.From this point of view, the grievances and entanglements between Baili Yunxiao and Toad Palace are definitely not as simple as they appear on the surface-after they leave, it is really necessary to ask Bing Xuanji what happened.Right now, it's important to investigate this place first.Thinking of this, he signaled Nineteen to follow, and the two searched carefully room by room.

The first entry was obviously a daily residence. Although the utensils used were simple, they were not cumbersome. Almost every utensil had a specific purpose, and there was not even a single extra thing in the room, which shows that the owner of this place is thoughtful and clever.Yue Yinlin was not interested in the decorations such as stone tables, chairs, braziers and wooden frames. He just glanced at them and turned away without wanting to stay.After going in and out of three rooms in this way, he stopped in a room full of books.After turning around a few times, he casually pulled out a book from the shelf, and opened it as if no one was there.

Shijiu didn't make a sound, found a stone stool and sat down, his two long legs crossed and crossed as if they were tired, and he tilted his head with one hand and looked at the man.

Yue Yinlin read it at a glance, put the book back in its original place, and took down another more worn-out scripture.

The supreme, profound and subtle dharma is difficult to encounter in a million kalpas.What I have seen and heard is accepted and maintained, and I am willing to explain the true meaning of the Tathagata.When the four opening verses on the title page came into view, Yue Yinlin's complexion changed slightly, and even the speed of turning the pages became a little hasty.The content in the book will naturally not be the true Huayan Sutra.The more you look back, the colder your eyes become.

In the end, Yue Yinlin closed the book abruptly, and threw her hand behind her back.Nineteen was knocked on the ground unexpectedly, jumped up from the stool in shock, and hurriedly bent down and bowed his head to pick up the scriptures and hand them over.Yue Yinlin didn't answer or speak, but just looked at him coldly.

Nineteen rubbed the corners of his aching brows, and complained in a low voice, "...you hit me, it hurts."

Yue Yinlin probably didn't expect him to say such a sentence, and looked him up and down suspiciously for a while, trying to find any clues.

Nineteen was also not afraid, and only met him with clear and bright eyes, which were very cute.

Finally, Yue Yinlin was defeated, and said to Nineteen wearily: "The verses in this book are the same as the verses of the Wuyang Neijuan Sutra I learned. But the Wuyang Sutra focuses on the mind. This book is mainly based on illustrations, although the contents of the two are quite different, they seem to be of the same origin, as the palace lord, I have never seen such a thing."

Hearing the words was so confusing that he didn't know how to reply, so he said, "What if you have seen it, so what if you haven't seen it?"

Yue Yinlin was startled, but was dumbfounded.Yes, what if you have seen it, so what if you haven't seen it?It was in vain for him to pursue the limit of martial arts with all his heart, but he is not as good as an idiot with amnesia.Thinking carefully about what the former palace lord Bing Xuanji did in her life, there are indeed many doubts.All previous palace lords are unrivaled in martial arts, so why was she defeated by the young Baili Yunxiao back then?But if the Wuyang Heart Sutra she has studied is incomplete, it is not difficult to explain.From this point of view, it was no accident that I was unable to cultivate the Wuyang Sutra to the tenth realm at one time.The half of the scriptures that Bing Xuanji was missing fell into the hands of Baili Yunxiao nine out of ten—with such an important bargaining chip, it is easy to understand why the dungeon where Baili Yunxiao was imprisoned was so unique.But if these speculations are true, why has Bing Xuanji never revealed anything about this matter?Could it be that she has something to hide? ... A truth that has been buried for a long time in my mind is about to come out. All the mysteries are vivid in my mind, but it feels unreal.People immersed in the myth only feel that their hands and feet are getting colder and colder, and their whole bodies feel like they have fallen into an ice cave.

Suddenly, a thick fur coat was put on, and the warm feeling returned to her body bit by bit.Yue Yinlin tilted his head slightly, and saw Nineteen shrank and let go of his hand, and said tremblingly: "...I saw that your complexion was very bad, so I went to the next door to find a piece of clothing, you, are you okay?"

Don't say it, don't think it, once I say it, I feel that this cave is really cold.Yue Yinlin wrapped the fur clothes a little tighter, and seeing Nineteen's bare upper body from the side, she couldn't help frowning: "What about you, why don't you wear it?"

"It's gone, I just found this one..." Shijiu Dingding looked at him with a little earnest look in his eyes, "I'm not cold."

Yue Yinlin didn't believe it, reached out to touch his face and shoulders, and immediately shrank back as if being scalded, and snorted unnaturally, "Are you a dog?"

Nineteen smiled awkwardly and didn't explain much.

Yue Yinlin said: "There must be more than one scripture like this, you can go to the shelf and look for it, and if you see something similar, bring it to me."

Nineteen nodded in understanding, walked back and forth between the shelves with the scriptures in his hand, and put a stack of books on the ground after a while.Yue Yinlin opened and read one by one, and his expression became more and more strange.

"What's wrong? I'm looking for something wrong?"

Yue Yinlin quickly covered the book, blushing and said: "Take the book, go out first and then talk about it." He was about to go back the same way as he said, but he saw Nineteen standing in the aisle and waving at him.

"Ok?"

Nineteen pointed to the depths of the cave, and said, "I just went there to see, and there is still a way, but I don't know where to go."

Yue Yinlin didn't speak, looked at him, then at the road he was pointing at, turned around and walked away.

Nineteen held the scriptures and followed him forward, all the way to the end, there was a night breeze blowing in his face, and the faint morning light was quietly falling, and it was vaguely determined that the exit was located in the middle of a vertical cliff.

"Do you still remember the lightness kung fu I taught you?" Yue Yinlin raised his head to look at the top of the cliff and asked lightly.

Nineteen turned pale when he heard it, and tremblingly said: "It's so high, it's scary...how about you go up first, I, I'd better swim back..."

"You talk too much."

Yue Yinlin suddenly pulled him over. Nineteen thought he was going to be beaten, so he closed his eyes immediately in fright.Unexpectedly, Yue Yinlin just encircled the man with one hand, exerted force on his waist with his fingers, and flew him up the cliff with one breath.

Nineteen was breathing heavily, his feet had landed on the ground, and the two who had been tightly together just now separated quickly.

Yue Yinlin shook his right hand in disgust, as if he thought Nineteen was too heavy.However, when he looked around, this displeasure was immediately blown away by the scene in front of him.

Cold pool, light smoke, white toad flower.

This place turned out to be—Mist Tianchi.After Yue Yinlin came to his senses, the first picture that came to his mind was the scene before he fainted in Tianchi when he became obsessed last time.At first, I thought that the intruder was extremely skilled in martial arts, able to avoid the eyes and ears of the palace, but now I finally understand how that person entered Tianchi...

I see.I see.
