Dao Fruit

Qiu Yan was no stranger to these words, but they had always been used to describe them. Now, facing a long river, Chen Jing suddenly said these four words, which was extraordinary.

Chen Jing's surprise only lasted for about a moment, and then he calmed down and calmed down, showing extraordinary self-control. But he knew that his expression just now had been seen by Qiu Yan, so he smiled and said: "I'm a little rude. , which made Brother Qiu laugh. We were able to get out of the river this time only because of Brother Qiu’s efforts. I would like to thank Chen here in advance and remember this favor. "

As he spoke, he swung his sleeves, raised his arms, and saluted solemnly.

It is strange to say that several people appeared out of thin air, with living souls and spiritual souls exposed, but the soul bodies changed and took on the appearance of physical bodies. They could be fake and real, and no clues could be seen on the surface with the naked eye.

At this time, Chen Jing saluted, his clothes fluttering, and passers-by also clasped their fists to thank him. Tao Ying's expression was a little unnatural, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes when he looked at Qiu Yan, and he also thanked him.

Four people were suspended in the air, located on the river.

After receiving the courtesy from the three people, Qiu Yan did not reply, as if he was waiting for something.

Chen Jing understood the interest, smiled slightly, pointed to the long river below and said: "This river is called the Long River of History. It is said that it runs through Shilin. My ancestors of the Chen family have recorded it in books. I did not inform Brother Qiu in advance. Please forgive me. There is also a reason.”

He raised his eyes and looked directly at Qiu Yan, and said calmly: "This matter happened because of my lack of consideration, which led to an accident and almost got me into deep trouble. Fortunately, Brother Qiu is so talented that he saw through the reality of the scene of nostalgia."

"What's going on with this scene of reminiscence? Are the things inside real or fake?" Qiu Yan shook his head, interrupted the other party's words, and directly asked the question in his heart.

In fact, as early as in the Liang Kingdom, after Qiu Yan heard the faint voice, he realized that Chen Jing and others were probably observing him from another level in the soul.

It stands to reason that with Qiu Yan's Soul Dao cultivation and sensitive perception, no matter how quiet his voice is or how chaotic his thoughts are, as long as he captures it, he can analyze its meaning. However, Chen Jing's words were unclear, except for Apart from identifying the identity, no other information can be obtained.

This was noticed by Qiu Yan, and the incense mind of the spirit body immediately began to analyze, eliminated various possibilities, and came to several conclusions.

After that, Qiu Yan discovered that there was a sense of prying eyes in the cold aura surrounding him. After admonishing Lord Liang, the cold aura could not dissipate, and the sense of prying eyes also disappeared. Now, as soon as he jumped out of the water, the other three people appeared, and the answer was almost ready to come out.

"It seems that Brother Qiu has discovered it a long time ago. In fact, Chen did not expect this accident in advance. I thought that Brother Qiu did not belong to any academy and had no chance to enshrine the article, but I did not expect that there was still an academy that Brother Qiu’s manuscript was enshrined, which triggered what happened next.”

Speaking of this, Chen Jing shook his head: "However, looking at Brother Qiu's appearance, it is obvious that he does not know anything about it. From this, it can be inferred that it should be the handwriting that was wandering outside and flowed into a certain academy by accident."

Looking at the smile on Chen Jing's face, Qiu Yan had an idea in his heart——

"Chen Jing should have guessed which academy is responsible for this."

However, Chen Jing did not dwell on this point. After clarifying the reason for the matter, he changed the subject: "As for this scene of commemoration, I also learned about it from previous books. Since Brother Qiu asked, Chen will not hide it. , in fact, to make this clear, we have to start with history.”

He raised his hand and pointed downward: "This river is called the River of History. Brother Qiu should have some understanding of this name due to his previous experience in it."

Qiu Yan nodded and did not answer, but his eyes swept back and forth across the river.

This river has a wide surface. You can't see the source or the end. It seems to come from the horizon and go to the horizon. On both sides of the long river, there are dense forests. The trees are dense and shrouded in a light mist. Neither perception nor sight can detect the scene clearly.

The strangest thing was the ground by the river. The ground was covered with a layer of white crystal. Qiu Yan looked at it carefully and realized that it was a layer of hoarfrost.

Seeing that Qiu Yan remained silent, Chen Jing's expression remained unchanged and his smile did not diminish. He continued: "This river is named after history, so it naturally has mysteries. My ancestors once said to me, 'If no one records it, the past will be forgotten. It's meaningless'. It can be seen that the things recorded by people are history and have meaning. History has been written by historians since ancient times, and it contains the thoughts and concepts of historians and historians. This river is the gathering of these thoughts. !”

Hearing this, Qiu Yan withdrew his gaze and asked: "A gathering of thoughts? So, the scenes inside are all fake? Is there no illusion?" He remembered what Zhang Qin said. Now it seems that it is probably The vertical and horizontal method wants to confuse one's own concepts.

Chen Jing shook his head: "The thoughts of a historian are different from those of ordinary scholars. Even if they rely on their own feelings and tendencies and fabricate some things, they cannot make things out of nothing. Their duty is to 'record', so the scene in the river is somewhat They may be illusions, but some are real, either things that have happened in history, or things that are happening now..."

He pondered for a moment, and then said: "When my soul enters the Shilin, if it falls into the river and connects with a drop of water in it, it is possible to go deep into it and enter a world that may be real or just an illusion. If it is real, Yes, then this world actually exists, and with the help of the long river of history, our souls can descend into it across time and space. "

"Crossing time and space? Can it go upstream?" Qiu Yan frowned and glanced at the long river again, realizing the huge value in it. "Doesn't that mean that with the second river as the foundation, one can experience all kinds of history?"

"This is true," Chen Jing nodded, "However, precisely because it is difficult to distinguish between reality and reality, the world inside is collectively called the Scenery of Reminiscing, which expresses the thoughts of historians. However, this river is not easy to enter. of."

Having said this, Chen Jing looked at Qiu Yan and said sincerely: "Brother Qiu opened the door to Shilin, stepped on the path of his heart, and was led to a scene of nostalgia. He should have discovered something. It is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of that place. , if you live for a long time, you are likely to get lost in it, but after all, it is a foreign soul. Once the body decays, it cannot enter the underworld. It will be trapped in the cracks of the river and will never be able to escape. "

"The crack in the river..." Qiu Yan thought for a moment, noticed the frightened look on Tao Ying's face, and suddenly realized, "Brother Chen, did you accidentally fall into the crack in the river just now?"

"That's right," Chen Jing sighed, "It was Brother Qiu who opened up his mind. We are just taking advantage of it. But because of an accident, Brother Qiu was dragged here. The affairs of the Liang Kingdom are actually a test, but we are not qualified to do so. We can only drift with the current and be thrown into the river. Our destiny is connected with Brother Qiu. If Brother Qiu does not escape, we will be trapped forever. I concentrated my mind before, wanting to send a message to Brother Qiu, tell me something, tell the story of the long river and the destiny The origin of Nian Zhijing, but it was not successful."

When Chen Jing said these words, he had a smile on his face, as if he was not talking about his own experience, but Qiu Yan could capture a sinister meaning from between the lines.

At this time, a look of curiosity suddenly appeared on Chen Jing's face: "Speaking of which, once you enter the scene of commemoration, it is difficult to get out without any means. That Zhang Qin is obviously a person who has arrived. He will definitely stay. With the backhand, you can get in and out, but how did you get out, Brother Qiu?"

After saying this, he added: "After Brother Qiu advised the Liang Lord, the lingering thoughts dissipated, and it was difficult for us to continue to understand the situation. Therefore, I have this question. Of course, this is Brother Qiu's matter. , Chen is just curious and doesn’t want to say anything.”

Qiu Yan smiled and did not answer. He knew that Chen Jing did not really want to know the result when he asked, but to show his sincerity that he and Lu Daoren had not discovered Qiu Yan's secret.

Chen Jing didn't take it seriously and stopped asking about the reason or the whereabouts of Zhang Qin. Instead, he said: "I want to remind Brother Qiu that the water in this historical river can corrode the soul. If it goes in for too long, the soul will be destroyed." When contaminated by water, the mind will also change and gradually assimilate with Shilin. Once that happens, it will be difficult to return to the earth. "

"I see, thank you Brother Chen for reminding me." Qiu Yan nodded, and suddenly his soul moved, and he noticed two figures approaching quickly not far away.

Qiu Yan's spirit had been disturbed by the mist in the surrounding woods since he left the river, and his range of perception was greatly restricted. As a result, when the two figures came out of the forest, he realized that at this distance, they were far from each other. We can already see each other!

"Huh?" Chen Jing exclaimed, seemingly a little surprised.

Among the few people, Chen Jing undoubtedly knew Shilin the most. Even he was surprised, let alone the others. Tao Ying immediately panicked. With a move of his hands and feet, his soul floated to the side, and he was about to fall. Go to the river.

When Chen Jing saw it, he suddenly said: "Brother Tao, don't fall to the ground!"

While he was speaking, the figure of the passerby swayed and appeared next to Tao Ying. He raised his hand to grab the latter and prevent him from falling to the ground.

At the same time, two figures rushed out of the forest and had already arrived. They were two men in their thirties, both dressed as Confucian scholars. When they came to the front, they were startled when they saw several people on the river. , and then each saluted.

Just then.

call!

Suddenly a flame rose up somewhere by the river!

Heart-burning!

After this bit of inner fire was revealed, it exploded with a bang, stirring up the hoarfrost on the ground, and flew towards everyone present!

In an instant, the sky was covered with white frost, crystal clear!

"Not good!" The next moment, the expressions of Chen Jing and the two Confucian scholars who arrived changed greatly!

But Qiu Yan's mind suddenly moved, he opened his mouth and blew in a sharp breath. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
