The water was filled with blood. He Si looked at the familiar scene and asked, "What did they do?"

The old man didn't answer. He narrowed his eyes when looking at He Si, as if he was sizing her up: "Why do you want to know?"

"Maybe I can help you."

"Or help them?" The voice on the other side became more serious, echoing in the sound of the rushing water.

"Help you." He Si looked directly into the old man's eyes without flinching.

After a long time, the old man finally accepted the answer. He seemed to be very tired. He hunched down, slowly sat on the turtle's back, stroked the turtle shell in front of him and said, "You can't help me."

"Now that I can find you, I can help you."

"How did you find me?" The old man seemed to really care about this question, and his tired and cloudy eyes radiated a glimmer of light because of this question, which was extremely inappropriate for his age.

"I..." He Si hesitated for a moment, then simply said it truthfully, "I suffer from Charles Bonner Syndrome, which allows me to see things that others cannot."

"What proof?"

"Just think that I have visions, but the things I see are not all hallucinations, but have their origins."

"For example?" The old man's eyes became even brighter, "Have you ever seen anyone?"

"people?"

"Yes, during the time you saw me, have you ever seen anyone else?"

"Wu Litian..."

"It's not them!" The old man interrupted He Si rudely for the first time. These names made him extremely disgusted and he had lost the desire to talk.

The scene from her first dream suddenly flashed through He Si's mind: "I haven't seen anyone else, but I have seen a courtyard."

"What yard?" The depressed old man suddenly became interested.

"The square, old-fashioned courtyard looks a bit like the one on this floor. There are several stainless steel clothes-drying poles inside, and the bedding is being dried. There are two mops standing on the wall, and there are porcelain basins below to collect water. There is a corner of the courtyard. A loquat tree..."

Before He Si finished speaking, she keenly noticed that the old man's body was shaking: "There's more, why don't you talk anymore?"

"There are also iron chairs and a table with yellow wood grain. There are several photos pressed under the glass on the table. There seems to be a couple in the photo, but I can't see clearly."

"Continue." The old man stared at her blankly.

He Si didn't want to talk anymore, but for some reason, she couldn't stop: "There were footsteps outside the door, and someone opened the door. I hid under the loquat tree, and then..."

"Say."

He Si tried to purse her lips, but the rest of the words blurted out: "Someone jumped from the building."

"Did you see that person?" The old man's face showed pain, and his eyes were full of sorrow, but he asked frantically as if he was self-inflicted: "That person...that person, did she die immediately? Was her death painful? ?Did she say anything? Tell me."

He Si felt as if her heart had been torn apart. She didn't want to recall, but fragments of memory were retrieved repeatedly. She didn't want to answer, but those words kept colliding in her mouth: "She said..."

"Why bully a junior?" A black shadow shot out from Lao Chaofeng's hand as fast as lightning, passed through the warm red light, pierced the diffuse mist, and hit the old man's forehead and heart directly. The old man staggered and fell on the turtle's back.

He Si breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting rid of the tugging in her heart and finding her own rhythm.But the giant turtle felt that its owner was injured, and its huge body surfaced, raising its head and hissing at the three people like a snake.

Water mist spurted out from its mouth, huge waves surged into the sky, and the water vapor became heavier. Xiaojiu flapped its wings a few more times, obviously with much more effort than before.

"It's okay." The old man managed to support his body, touched the giant turtle's head, his eyes wandered between Qin Jian and Fan Yu, and then looked at He Si, "You are right, you shouldn't bully juniors."

"I answered your question, but you haven't agreed to my request yet, let us help you."

"Those who abandon me will not be able to keep the past, and those who disturb my heart..." The old man stood up again, having made up his mind, "I can handle it myself."

After saying this, the giant turtle turned around, and the figure went upstream again, heading towards the moon.

"and many more."

"There's no need to send them away."

As soon as these words came out, He Si felt that her feet were nailed to the spot, unable to move at all.Looking at Fan Yu again, his body jumped forward, but his feet could not move, and he fell to the ground. Lao Chaofeng apparently also lost the ability to pursue, and the umbrella in his hand fell to the ground, rarely showing a sullen look on his face.

"Damn, you really follow your words, it's hard to deal with now."

The figure gradually disappeared along with Fan Yu's words, and the water vapor turned into moonlight again. The clue was broken, but the danger was lifted and several people regained their ability to move.Xiao Jiu folded up her flaming wings, as if she was extremely tired, and rested them on He Si's palm like a baby, and was put into He Si's pocket.And the mess downstairs began to clean up his body again, preparing to climb up and continue reincarnation.

"The ability of this cultural relic is... whatever he says, we have to do it?" He Si understood what Fan Yu meant. Seeing that Lao Chaofeng did not refute, she also knew that this time the problem was difficult.

"This is too evil. What can you do if you have this ability? Do you have to kill people?" Fan Yu got up from the ground and dusted himself off. "Uncle Qin, do you think any cultural relics have this ability?"

"The earliest words to follow the law came from Lin Zexu's "Manuscript of Going to Guangdong to Investigate and Handle the Haikou Incident" by Lin Zexu. Everyone should obey it without violating it, that is, strictly implement it and follow it all. Later, it had various extended meanings."

"You mean... the cultural relics this time may be the "Manuscript of Going to Guangdong to Investigate the Haikou Incident" or a similar document?"

"We can only try." Qin Jian was obviously not satisfied with this answer, but he couldn't think of a more appropriate possibility.

"Then I'll let Sister Liu go find her first." After Fan Yu finished speaking, he looked at He Si again, "But why did the old man just say that you went to find her?"

"I don't know. Anyway, I met him in a dream."

"I think the old man is right. Look at the first place you described. It's obviously a place that the old man is familiar with. It's obvious that you went to his territory to find him."

He Si was silent, and she thought of the photo in the room again. She couldn't say anything just now, but now she suddenly cared about it.

Fan Yu thought that she recognized his statement, and then continued: "So, will this thing have something to do with the Yincheng Wooden Pagoda that you are about to study? In this way, it is in line with what the old man said. After all, from his perspective It seems that you have been looking for him all this time, and your dream started only after you decided to come here, right?"

"Wooden Tower?"

"The Yincheng Wooden Pagoda is not only a building, but also contains many peerless collections. Uncle Qin, what do you think?"

"There are indeed a lot," Qin Jian couldn't understand it for a while and just said, "Then I'll trouble Liu Rui."

"Is it possible that I didn't go to him, or he came to me, but that we arrived at the same place?" He Si interrupted the two people's discussion about the wooden tower and expressed the doubts in Xianyou's heart.
