Chunyang First Headmaster

Chapter 53 The Vision of the Supermoon

This time Liu Suifeng and Chu Xun suffered a lot. The two of them huddled in the hidden place of the rolling hills. Apart from occasionally eating some dry food and drinking some clear water, they didn't even dare to move. They waited for a whole day—— The terrain here is too open, and even a slight movement can be easily noticed by the opponent.

Seeing the sunset on the west mountain, and the sand mountain and moon spring gradually shrouded in darkness, he breathed a sigh of relief and moved forward slowly with the help of the night.

At the foot of the mountain, someone lit more than ten piles of bonfires, and then lit torches, dotted with dots, and there was a loud noise from time to time.

"Brother, the more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong."

Liu Suifeng raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Chu Xun said in a low voice: "I heard before that this Shajiao was originally the sphere of influence of the Yangming Sword Sect. If they judge that the relics are nearby, even if they send dozens of people to sort it out carefully, They should have dug out something a long time ago. But why didn’t they go patrolling? They even specially arranged staff here, what are they waiting for?”

Liu Suifeng shook his head and said: "I don't know about this, but Master told us yesterday that the Crescent Moon Spring will reflect moonlight on special days, forming a rare 'hanging spring'. After careful consideration, there are only about At some point, something will manifest."

He paused, and then said: "Based on my guess, maybe they didn't know the exact location of the treasure before, and it was because of this that they divided up the people who entered Shajiao and cleared them all. Perhaps it was only recently that some clues were found, so I sent someone to arrange it."

"As for the special day that Master said..."

Special day?The two looked at each other, as if they felt something in their hearts, they couldn't help but looked up together.

The cold winter night sky seems to be covered with a layer of light mist. Above the mist, a round of full moon hangs high, exuding a faint yellow halo, brilliance like water, softly covering the huge Mingsha Mountain.

"The fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month!"

The two thought about today's day almost at the same time.

"Could it be that today is a special day?"

"No, there is a full moon every month. Since Shajiao is the sphere of influence of the Yangming Sword Sect, how could no one have seen the vision of Xuanquan?"

The two looked up again, only to find that the moonlight tonight seemed particularly bright, as big as a silver plate, and seemed to be much larger than the fifteen full moons of the past.

The two couldn't figure it out, and each had doubts in their hearts. After a while, Chu Xun tentatively asked: "Brother, the moon we usually see is not so big..."

Liu Suifeng nodded, also full of doubts, whispered: "Could it be some kind of omen..."

If Xiao Qianli were here, he could explain it with just a glance.

This is a phenomenon in which the moon is near perigee when the moon is at a new or full moon. When the moon is at perigee, it happens to be a new moon, which is called a super new moon; when the moon is at perigee, it happens to be full, and it is called a super full moon.

And today's surprisingly large "super full moon" is a Saros cycle that is determined at the same time as the sidereal month, synodic month, and node year, and each cycle lasts 18 years and 11 days.

But here, it is easy to be associated with various omens of gods and gods.Even Liu Suifeng and Chu Xun, who are martial arts geniuses, are not immune.

The more they thought about it, the more frightened they became. They only felt that something big would happen tonight.

Thinking of this, the two looked at each other, and under the cover of night, they quietly walked around, crouched and gradually approached the Crescent Moon Spring.

The camp was brightly lit, and from time to time, members of the Yangming Sword Sect with long swords came in and out of the tent. The two of them hid in the dark, and they could already faintly hear the conversation wafting in the wind.

Suddenly there was a dull roar not far away, and a horse team held torches and rushed all the way, and the man at the head shouted: "Haile is the first to arrive!"

There were more than 20 people who came, all of them carried long swords on their backs, their bodies were neatly tidied up and their movements were quick and light, obviously they were not mediocre.Seeing this horse team, everyone in the camp came out to greet them, and sang, "I have seen the first one!"

On a tall horse in the middle sits a thin, withered old man, with his eyes closed, he seems inconspicuous, and occasionally he opens his eyes slightly, but he is full of light.

He didn't even get off the horse, but squinted his eyes, gave a proud "hmm", and ordered: "Cheer up your spirits, according to the old man's guess, it should be today and tomorrow, maybe you can see something carefully."

"The first seat? Must be a first-class master in the Yangming Sword Sect?" Liu Suifeng and Chu Xun secretly guessed in their hearts, but they both shrunk their bodies tighter by coincidence.

The cold wind was bleak, and if it was an ordinary person, they would have been shivering from the cold. Fortunately, both the light and the dark people here have internal strength, so they don't look so cold.

The little old man squinted his eyes and looked at the Crescent Moon Spring, and said: "Be careful, we have checked this Mingsha Mountain many times. If there is something strange, it probably has something to do with this Crescent Moon Spring."

Everyone agreed, and each stood by the spring with a torch in hand, looking around one by one, searching for any suspicious signs.

At some point, the faint mist in the air had completely dissipated, Liu Suifeng looked up quietly, and saw the moon in the night sky, which was at its fullest.

The crescent moon spring is rippling, and the layers of ripples reflect the bright moon in the sky. The sky and the earth are like two bright lights, illuminating the huge Mingsha Mountain like frost.

"The bright moon is shining!" Liu Suifeng and Chu Xun thought of this sentence at the same time.

"What about the hanging spring..."

As soon as the two thought about it, they immediately saw a strange sight.

The wind stopped, and the spring water gradually calmed down, blue waves like a mirror.

Between the full moon and the moon shadow in the Crescent Moon Spring, a seven-color halo suddenly appeared. Which one of the people present is not a person with outstanding eyesight?Noticing something different, Qiqi immediately cast his gaze over.

The seven-color rays of light rose from the surface of the water and shot straight into the air. They were extremely calm, occasionally fluctuating, and only slightly swayed, exuding a faint brilliance.

Seeing this scene that was completely beyond their imagination, everyone in the audience widened their eyes in astonishment, not even daring to take a breath, as if their own breathing would affect this rare spectacle.

"The God of Xuanquan..." The little old man's eyes were bright at this moment, how could he still look half asleep?He muttered to himself, "It turns out that these legends in Shajiao are true."

Liu Suifeng and Chu Xun were also stunned. When they were observing carefully with their eyes wide open, a familiar voice as thin as a gnat suddenly came from behind: "Go into the water! The thing is at the bottom of the water!"

"Master! It's Master who rushed back!"

The two of them didn't have time to think about it, so they rushed straight to the spring, only to hear two "plop plop" sounds, the water waves swayed, and the colorful "hanging spring" floating in the air disappeared without a trace.

Only then did the members of the Yangming Sword Sect wake up.Someone shouted: "Who is it? Who's in the water?"

"It's not our people! It's the enemy!"

The little old man named Hei Er Dongjue suddenly woke up and shouted, "Hurry up! If you catch up, kill him!"

Several black-clothed swordsmen took off their coats and were about to jump into the water when suddenly a blue sword light flashed in front of their eyes. Two of them felt their necks go cold, and their big heads flew up together, and a burst of water gushed out from their necks. Blood rained all over the sky, and headless corpses fell heavily on the side of the spring, and a blood red slowly swayed in the water.

Everyone couldn't help being horrified, Qi Qi turned their heads to look, and saw a Taoist in feather and star crown holding a sword in one hand, and said coldly: "If you want to go into the water, you need to ask about the long sword in my hand!"

Heier Dongjue was furious, and shouted: "What are you still doing in a daze? Get rid of the accomplices first, and then slowly clean up the people in the water!"

All the swordsmen suddenly agreed, and immediately more than ten people rushed towards Xiao Qianli.

"Pearls of rice grains, also emit a light?" Xiao Qianli snorted, and the sword light flashed, and the fastest swordsman was hit in the chest by the sword, and his body fell to the ground slumped.The four swordsmen were just about to form the Four Absolute Sword Formation to confront each other, but they suddenly felt the cold around them, and couldn't help shivering, but in a moment of astonishment, the four of them fell to the ground and died.

Seeing that this Taoist's swordsmanship is superb, the rest of the people hesitated for a while.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Qianli turned around and ordered: "Chengyuan, you go into the water to help your two senior brothers. There must be something reflective at the bottom of the water. Look carefully, there may be some mechanism on or near it."

Li Chengyuan, who was behind him, watched his master kill seven people in a row, he couldn't help but his eyes lit up with excitement, he was about to cheer for his master, but when he heard Xiao Qianli's order, he suddenly felt enlightened, nodded and said: "Disciple understands! "

He had already put on the Confucian-style Taoist robe at this time, and he did not take it off immediately. A black shadow jumped into the water and disappeared on the water in a blink of an eye.Seeing this situation, someone on the other side immediately shouted: "Go down one more!"

"Leave them alone!" At this time, Heir Dongjue calmed down instead, waved his hand, stopped everyone from entering the water, and said with a sneer, "It's not like we haven't sent people to explore the bottom of the water. If there was something, we would have already seen it." The search was clean. It's ridiculous that these guys heard some gossip from somewhere, and thought that the relics were hidden under the water. Hehe, the agency was too clever, and it cost Qingqing's life."

He suddenly raised his voice and shouted: "Keep the water, this little Taoist priest will be dealt with by the old man himself!"

Hearing Heier Dongjue's order, Xiao Qianli smiled instead.

"A bunch of idiots!"

Xiao Qianli was also very curious about the so-called "Xuanquan" at first, but when he saw the rainbow of seven colors appear, he completely lost interest - the only explanation for this phenomenon is that there is a high reflective rate at the bottom of the water. thing.Put a basin of water in the sun, put a mirror under the water, and the light will reflect back to form a rainbow, which is nothing more than a dispersion effect.

As for why you can't see it during the day?That's because the light is too strong during the day, which conceals the rainbow, which is so faint that it is almost invisible; and only when this "super full moon" arrives, the moonlight is unprecedentedly strong, just enough to be reflected on the bottom of the water, and then reflected out of the water surface , forming the effect of this colorful "hanging spring" in the dark night.

"It's a pity that I'm not very good at physics. Otherwise, I can know the orientation of that thing by calculating the refraction index. I don't need three apprentices, Fei Libala, to search for it under the water—fortunately, the Crescent Moon Spring is not big. .”

Xiao Qianli took a deep breath, took a heavy step forward, and said solemnly: "Old man, step forward and lead him to death!"
