"What the hell?"
Ah Jiu subconsciously wanted to take a step back to get out of the way of the knife, but Xia Tian blocked his way of retreat, and was cut straight, but in the end he was unscathed.
"Jiu girl, can't you see that this is a phantom?" Xia Tian said with a smile.
"Phantom?" Ah Jiu was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, "Where did it come from?"
The furnishings of the Yuxiao Palace are not complicated, and it can even be said to be a bit rudimentary. Opening the door is the living room, and there is no furniture inside. There is a door on each side, the left and right ones are closed, the right one is ajar, and there is some light flickering inside.
Bai Xianxian pointed to the room on the right: "It seems to come from there."
"I'll go and have a look, be careful, there may be some mechanism or trap here." Ah Jiu also saw the half-hidden door, and felt that there was spiritual energy flowing inside, as if someone was hiding in it.
Xia Tian casually said: "Jiu girl, you are overthinking, there used to be at most a protective formation here, which is one with the Four Elephant Divine Light Formation, but I have broken it together just now."
"As long as you talk too much, it's always right to be careful."
Ah Jiu glared at Xia Tian with dissatisfaction, and walked towards the vacant door first.
"Who dares to trespass into Yuxiao Palace and take my knife!"
Just as Ah Jiu was about to push the door open a little more, there was a cold shout from inside, followed by another fierce knife shadow slashing over.
This time Ah Jiu held back and didn't dodge. As expected, after the knife shadow touched the corner of her clothes, it disappeared in an instant, as if it had never appeared before.
"Who is inside, get out!"
Ah Jiu pushed open the door abruptly and strode in.
The room suddenly lit up, and the inside of the room appeared before her eyes.
This should be a study room, with wooden frames built into the walls, facing the door is a wooden table, with a piece of rice paper spread out on it, with a few simple and strange characters written on it, and the ink is still wet, it is really Somewhat strange.
Next to the rice paper, there is an opened wooden box, the box is also engraved with extremely complicated patterns, it is not something from the earth at first glance.
However, after getting closer, Ah Jiu discovered that the box turned out to be a music box.
Inside the box was a palm-sized statue of a swordsman, with a rough appearance, dressed in black from top to bottom, holding the knife on the handle, with the blade half out of its sheath.
In fact, the carving is very rough, but the swordsman's eyes are extraordinarily energetic, as if he is alive, no matter where you are, you can feel that he is staring at you, his eyes are extremely sharp, and ordinary people will never be able to resist.
"This statue is a bit weird." The more Ah Jiu looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell for a while.
Bai Xianxian walked back and forth by the bookshelf, browsing the books on the shelf, all of them were ancient borrowed copies, but they were well preserved. She looked at it for a while, then casually took a volume from the shelf.
"It's a heinous crime to tamper with ancient books, go to death!"
Suddenly, there was another shout, and then the sword shadow slashed out at an extremely fast speed.
Bai Xianxian was taken aback, and subconsciously made a move to meet him, but was soon hugged by Xia Tian.
Sure enough, this knife shadow disappeared without a trace.
"My wife, that is a phantom." Xia Tian explained with a smile: "However, if you fight back, you may be injured."
"Xiaxia, Xianxian, come and have a look." Ah Jiu had been staring at the box, and at this moment she was sure that it was the wooden box that made the sound and cut the shadow of the knife.
Xia Tian hugged Bai Xianxian and walked to Ah Jiu, and asked, "Jiu girl, what did you find?"
"I found out...you put her down!" Ah Jiuyi turned her head, seeing Xia Tian's hand on Bai Xianxian's sensitive spot, she couldn't help but yell softly.
Bai Xianxian blushed, but she didn't dare to speak.
"It's okay, I'm not tired." Xia Tian had a thick skin, and replied solemnly: "Jiu girl, if you are jealous, I will hug you later."
"I'll hug you." Ah Jiu kicked Xia Tian lightly, "I told you to put Xianxian down, I didn't hear that, didn't I see that Xiao Nizi's ears are going to burst red."
Only then did Xia Tian let go of Bai Xianxian, and said casually: "I see, it's quite cute. Jiu girl, your ears are not sensitive, and other places are not red, not as cute as her."
"You're going to die." Ah Jiu was so angry again, she simply skipped the topic and said directly: "The voice and knife shadow just now came from this box."
"I know." Xia Tian showed an unsurprised expression, "As soon as I came in, I could see it."
Ah Jiu said unhappily: "Then you didn't say it earlier!"
"Jiu girl, you didn't ask." Xia Tian replied with a smile.
"Fart!" Ah Jiu's memory is good, and she immediately retorted: "I asked where Dao Ying came from before, but you didn't say it, but you still said that it came out of this room."
Xia Tian blinked and pretended to be confused: "That's because you didn't call me husband, so I'm not sure if you're asking me."
"I'm really convinced." Ah Jiu was speechless, so he asked each word: "Then tell me now, what kind of thing is this thing! Why can it make sounds and knife shadows!"
"You said this." Xia Tian smiled, then shook his head neatly: "I don't know."
Ah Jiu was about to explode, and now he finally understood why his woman always went crazy from time to time.
"Don't you know everything?" Ah Jiu remembered what he boasted in Xia Tian before, "Why don't you know everything now?"
Xia Tian corrected solemnly: "Your husband, of course I am omniscient and omnipotent. But what I said I don't know, and what you said I don't know, it's not the same kind of ignorance. I don't know, I just don't want to know , rather than really not knowing..."
"Stop, stop!" Ah Jiu heard that her head was about to grow big, and she directly interrupted Xia Tian's words: "Don't go around, I don't care if you don't want to know, or you don't know, anyway, I want to know what this is. what."
"Obviously, this is a music box." Xia Tian touched Ah Jiu's forehead, "Jiu girl, why are you so stupid? Could it be that you have a fever and burned your brain out?"
Ah Jiu pushed Xia Tian away: "You just have a fever! The syllables of the music box are very simple, you can't speak, and you can't cut out the shadow of a knife."
"That's an unusual music box." Xia Tian said casually.
"It's useless to talk to you, I'll study it myself." Ah Jiu gave Xia a blank look, picked up the music box, and observed it carefully.
Xia Tian was left on the sidelines, and after a while, he felt bored, so he said: "That is an ordinary music box, but it is not the music box on the earth, it should be brought over from another world. There are talisman arrays engraved in them, and they will react naturally according to certain situations. Those knife shadows are actually emitted by the talisman array."
Hearing this, Ah Jiu immediately opened the music box, and she saw that there were densely packed talismans inside, and it looked like it was definitely not a figure on the earth.
"Don't you know, why didn't you say it just now." Ah Jiu complained to Xia Tian, and then muttered to himself: "If this box is something from another world, doesn't that mean that Immortal Emperor Xuanyang has been to another world ? Then which world did he go to, Xianyun Continent?"
"You have to ask that idiot Immortal Emperor." Xia Tian lazily said: "However, he has already lost his body and spirit, Jiu girl, there is no place for you to ask."
Ah Jiu ignored Xia Tian, studied the music box for a while, then turned around and observed the books on the bookshelf with Bai Xianxian.
"These books are also from another world?" Ah Jiu took out a few books at random, flipped through them, and found that they were written in a language she didn't know, and it was definitely not any known language on the earth. "Could it be that he is actually from another world?" Someone who traveled over here?"
"Of course not." Xia Tian curled his lips, "These things should be obtained from the secret realm of the Heavenly Palace."
Ah Jiu glanced at him: "You know?"
"A woman in a floral dress asked me to help her retrieve three things from the Little Immortal World, but I didn't agree." Xia Tian told Ah Jiu and Bai about what happened in Zhongnan Mountain. Xianxian: "If I'm not mistaken, this music box should be one of them."
"What are the other two?" Ah Jiu couldn't help asking.
Xia Tian said nonchalantly: "I refused, she didn't tell me what those three things are."
Bai Xianxian also asked curiously: "Brother Tian, how can you be sure that this music box is one of them?"
"Because of the breath." Xia Tian casually replied: "On this thing, there is a breath similar to that of the woman in the floral dress, but there is no other thing in the room."
Ah Jiu speculated: "It seems that Immortal Emperor Xuanyang has been to the secret realm of Tiangong?"
"Whether he's been there or not has nothing to do with us." Xia Tian yawned, and said indifferently: "Anyway, there are no people left. If you care about what that person does, it's better to find a place to sleep."
Ah Jiu said angrily, "Are you sleepy?"
Xia Tian said seriously: "I'm not sleepy, but I just want to sleep with you."
"Rogue!" Ah Jiu gave him a blank look, and simply ignored him, and went straight to Bai Xianxian's hand, "Xianxian, don't bother with him, let's sort out these books and see if there are any other mysteries here. "
Xia Tian followed behind the two unhurriedly, observing their figures without blinking, the more he looked at them, the more he felt that he really had vision, and he was worthy of being the most intelligent person in the world.
Almost at the same time, Yi Xiaoyin, who had just returned to China by plane, met several mysterious people as soon as she got out of the airport.
"Miss Yi, right? Our boss wants to meet you." One of the mysterious people said in an emotionless tone.
Yi Xiaoyin asked, "Who is your boss?"
"No comment on this." The mysterious man replied indifferently.
"Then forgive me for not accompanying me." Yi Xiaoyin refused coldly: "I have to go back to Jianghai, please don't get in the way."
The mysterious man suddenly said, "Master Yi, do you still remember a patient you treated in southern Xinjiang twenty years ago?"
Twenty years ago, when she first started practicing medicine, she did go to southern Xinjiang to treat a patient.
Yi Xiaoyin's heart froze instantly, her expression changed, and there was a rare trace of panic in her eyes: "Could it be that you are..."
