Outside the Lingguan Pavilion, a black figure stood slowly, holding a narrow-edged fish intestine dagger in his right hand, and his left hand hung down. Only then did Zhang Xiaojing know that Xiao Gui kicked himself off to avoid the sword that would kill him. He is now in a trance and his sense of acuity has dropped. If it were not Xiao Gui's shot, I am afraid that he would die under the intestine sword inexplicably.

"I said that, I'm going to take Zhang Xiaojing's life personally." Yu Chang said with a dumb voice.

Xiao Gai blocked Zhang Xiaojing and prevented him from shooting again: "Now Zhang Xiaojing is already his own, you don't have to be against him anymore."

"How do you know he isn't surrendering?"

"I will judge this matter!" Xiao Gui said angrily. "Even if it is a surrender, now we are all around us, what are you afraid of?"

This explanation did not allow the fish intestines to converge: "He humiliated me, broke my left arm, and must die." Xiao Gui had to emphasize again, the language was harsh: "I say it again, he is now his own, before 'S grievances will be cancelled in one stroke! "

Yuchang shook his head: "It doesn't matter where he is, I just want him to die."

Outside the Lingguan Pavilion, the atmosphere suddenly became very strange. Zhang Xiaojing had just changed his camp and faced an internal strife.

"This is the ninth thing I want you to do! Don't touch him!" Xiao Gui almost shouted. He lifted his robe corner and picked up a string of red rope. There were two coins on the red rope. He took the next one and threw it away. The fish intestines received the money in mid-air, and the voice was quite surprised: "You actually use this for an enemy?"

"Have you heard it? Don't touch him." Xiao Gui said.

"Okay, but remember, this constraint will no longer be effective after you use up the last coin." Yuchang emphasized, "When I finish the last thing for you, it is his death."

Zhang Xiaojing took a step forward: "Fish intestine, I will give you a promise. When this happens, you and I will have a fair duel, no matter life or death." Fish intestine stared at Zhang Xiaojing's eyes: "How do I know you will keep your promise?"

"You can only choose to believe."

The fish intestine was silent for a moment, he probably also felt that there was not a great chance to start here, and finally nodded: "Okay."

The figure of the fish intestine quickly disappeared into the darkness, and then left a sentence floating from nowhere: "If you eat, I will kill Wenran."

Xiao Gui frowned, turning his head to apologize to Zhang Xiaojing: "Big head, the boiled fish is different from others. He does not listen to the announcement. I will deal with the matter when it is done, and I will never embarrass you. "

Zhang Xiaojing said quietly: "I can take care of myself, but Weng Wuji's daughter can't." Xiao Gui hated and said: "He dared to move the story, and I personally cooked him!"

They stepped up from the Lingguan Pavilion and along the way Xiao Xiao briefly introduced the origin of the fish intestines.

The fish intestine grew up in the guarding city near Lingwu from an early age. No one knows what his origins are and what his origin is. He only knows who offended the fish intestine. The local guardian Lang originally wanted to take the fish intestines for his own use, and soon discovered that this guy was too difficult to control and planned to get rid of it. Unexpectedly, the fish intestine counterattacked in advance, assassinating several high-ranking officials, and even the leader was in danger. The high-level guard Shoucaolang was furious and spread a big net to round up. The fish intestine was besieged to the point of death. Fortunately, he was rescued by Xiao Gui.

Zhang Xiaojing thought, no wonder that the fish intestines pretended to be so skilled as the fire master who guarded the catcher. It turned out that the two had a long history. If Shoucaolang knew that the assassins they had almost caught were actually fish intestines, I was afraid that things would not be so simple.

Xiao Gui continued. After the fish intestine was saved, he didn't thank him, but gave him ten copper coins and stringed them up to him, saying that he would do ten things for the cricket, and he would not owe each other. Therefore Xiao Xiao said that he did not listen to the announcement and was not easy to control.

Now Xiao Xiao has used up nine coins, leaving only the last coin.

"I'm so sorry that I wasted a piece of it."

Xiao Gui said: "It's okay, how can this be considered a waste. Besides, I only have one thing left, I need to ask the fish sausage to do it. After that, I don't need him anymore ..." The cruel smile immediately put on a concerned expression:

"Big head, you have to be careful about the way forward."

Zhang Xiaojing took a look. It turned out that above the Lingguan Pavilion was the Xuanguan Ding Pavilion. Above the pavilion, they formally entered the bottom of the main body of the lamphouse. The scene in front of him made Zhang Xiaojing and Li Mi unable to hold their breath.

Above his head is a magnificent dome as complex as a spider's nest. The entire Taishang Xuanyuan Lamp Building is made of thick bamboo and wooden beams criss-crossed as skeletons, covered with brocade colored silk and bamboo paper. Its internal space is surprisingly large, with thick pine planks placed between the beams, overlapping each other, row by row, forming a less reliable suspension bridge that spirals upward. There are many ropes, cardinals, and roulettes hanging nearby, and their usefulness is unknown. Probably only masters like Mao Shun or Chao Fen can see the mystery.

They stepped on the suspension bridges one by one, circled all the way up, and climbed to a height of more than seventy feet. Suddenly a night wind blew through the lamphouse skeleton, Zhang Xiaojing could feel that the whole lamphouse was shaking slightly, making a crunching sound.

The night wind blew a piece of skin outside, and Zhang Xiaojing looked north from the gap, and found that the Qinzheng government building was nearby. He knew that the distance between the two was not far, but he didn't expect to be so close. Just throwing a dozen feet of well rope is enough to connect the two buildings.

Zhang Xiaojing's one eye can clearly see the details of banquets in the building from this distance. The square crowns on the heads of the guests, the golden crispy roast lambs on the table, the gimmicks between the seats, and countless colorful gown skirts flashed in between. There were still people who were very hot and warm, so they left the seats and stood on the fence, pointing to the side of the lamphouse.

"Everyone is waiting for Taishang Xuanyuan Lantern to light up, it will be a grand wonder that has never existed before. I bet ten dollars, they must be holding a lot of verses in their stomachs, just waiting for the candle to burn Sing it out. "

Xiao Gui quipped, and moved on. Zhang Xiaojing withdrew his eyes and suddenly found that Li Mi's face was not very good. His arms were tightly bound, and there was a strong man on the left and right. In this state, he walked the crumbling suspension bridge. It was difficult to control the balance, and he might fall at any time.

He had to reach out to help, Xiao Xiao reassured: "Don't worry, he won't be okay. Such hard work has made Li Sicheng so high, but it's not just to push down to hear a noise." He stretched his right hand and held it up, then suddenly dropped it, simulating a voice in his mouth: "Hoo-pop!"

A group of people walked up dozens of feet again, and finally reached the central zone of the whole lamp tower-Tianshu layer.

This floor is a wide annular space, the floor is actually a huge flat wooden wheel, the wheel surface is almost as big as a school ground. In the middle of the bamboo wheel, a large bamboo sky pivot was erected high and connected with other components, which were made of wood and bamboo mixed and spliced. The large gaps were also inlaid with iron corners and copper rings.

Many cricket craftsmen are climbing on the shelf, chopping axe around the big wheel, replacing the unicorn arm. They were all lit by a small oil lamp, and they looked from afar, dots and dots, as if many gems were inlaid on this big wheel.

Zhang Xiaojing didn't see it. But Li Bi looked up and saw four or five lighthouses with protruding outlines around him, and immediately realized.

The basic structure of this Taishang Xuanyuan Lamp Building is the same as the test product Xiao Xiao showed him. There is a large pivot wheel in the center, and a small independent unit around the circle. As the pivot wheel rotates, these units will cycle in mid-air. The difference is that the test article uses twelve grids of paper paste, and around this Taishang Xuanyuan lamp building are 24 large lamp houses with four sides open, each room has an independent The theme of the scene, with pivot access, can drive the light figurines to move on their own.

It is conceivable that when the whole lamphouse fires, the big wheel up to the sky slowly rotates, and these twenty-four lamp houses rise and fall in mid-air, what a shocking gorgeous scene. Chang'an people, who like to be lively, are afraid of going crazy when they see all this.

A rickety old man was squatting in front of Tianshu, motionless, reaching out from time to time to touch, as if stroking his dying child.

Xiao Gui walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "Master Mao, how well prepared?" Mao Shun did not lift his head: "As long as the following machine is turned on and the water wheel is buckled, the hub will turn, driving 24 lamps Fang Xunxuan turned around. "He was in a bad mood, and anyone who learned that his masterpiece was about to be blown up would not be in a good mood.

Zhang Xiaojing was surprised: "This is Mao Shun? He is also your cricket?" Xiao Gui said: "We are naturally seeking for virtue and thirst, but the master obviously pays more attention to his family." Zhang Xiaojing was silent, most of them were kidnapping The family members of Mao Shun forced him to cooperate with himself.

It's no wonder that the crickets mixed in so smoothly, and Mao Shun as a guarantee, it must be smooth all the way.

"What are your plans?" Zhang Xiaojing finally asked.

Xiao Gu seems to have been waiting for this problem. A person has painstakingly planned an amazing thing, anyway, I hope to show off with others. He pointed at the huge celestial hub and began to explain with great interest.

It turned out that the vital pillar of Tianshu had been filled with stone grease. In the twenty-four lamp houses around it, a large number of stone columns were placed in the morning. Once the lamphouse starts to operate, the lamphouse will burn one after another. Those who watch the lanterns must have mistakenly thought it was a lighting effect, and they will not doubt it. When the 24 lamp houses are all burned, the heat will be transferred to the central pillar of Tianshu. The fiery fiery thunder that is really equipped is hidden in the column. When it exploded at that time, it could be said to have collapsed. The building of diligent government affairs will be wiped out.

After listening to this commentary, Zhang Xiaojing could not speak for a long time. It turned out that this was the real face of Que Lehuo. It had never been dormant and hidden, and it stood so big in Chang'an City.

How imaginative and paranoid can this be done?

Xiao Gui was very satisfied with Zhang Xiaojing ’s response. He raised his head and said with emotion: "Fei was so troublesome that he wanted to make a Heavenly Son destroyed by his favorite things in the happiest and most proud moment. The most meaningful revenge. "

Zhang Xiaojing looked at the old comrade and tried to say something, but finally closed his mouth silently.

"Oh, by the way, before this, there is one more thing to trouble Li Sicheng-you wait here for a while." Xiao Ji let Zhang Xiaojing stay in Tianshu, talk more with Master Mao, and then pull away Li Mi .

Leaving the Tianshu level, Xiao Gui took Li Bi to a light house outside the light tower. These lighthouses are all in an independent structure, open on all sides, which is convenient for viewing from different directions. There is a narrow passage between it and the main body of the lamp house.

The light house that Xiao Gui and Li Bi came to was called "Tang Di". The theme was about brothers, brothers and brothers, and there were several lantern figurines such as Zhao Xiao and Zhao Li. Xiao Gu pushed Li Bi in, and kept pushing him to the edge of the light house. Li Bi's feet almost stepped on the air before stopping.

Li Bi looked down and could not clearly see the ground under his feet, let alone the height of tens of feet. His hands were tied, and in this dangling lighthouse, he only used his legs to control the balance, which was very hard.

"Li Sicheng, you have worked hard." Xiao Gui grinned, revealing a mysterious smile. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Li Mi closed his eyes, thinking that the other party had any means to torture people. But after waiting for a long time, nothing happened. He opened it again and found that the two lamp houses adjacent to the Tangdi lamp house were lit up one after another.

One house is where Kong Sheng asked Lao Tzu to show the way of Wenzhi; one house is where Li Weigong sweeped Yinshan to show the power of Wuwei. The lights and candles on both sides reflected the Tang Di light house in the center. The guests on the upper floor of Qinzheng Affairs saw that the light house was on first, and mistakenly thought that it had already started.

So that lasted twenty fingers, Xiao Jiu snapped another finger, and the candlelights of the two houses went out together. The guests in the distance sighed with disappointment, only to know that it was testing.

"Okay, Li Sicheng, your task is completed." Xiao Gui dragged him back from the edge of the light house. Without knowing it, Li Bi had to keep silent.

When they returned to Tianshu again, Xiao Gui called for an escort, and ordered Li Bi to be taken down from the lamp tower and sent to the palace of the Water Power Palace. Then he embraced Zhang Xiaojing's shoulder intimately and took him to Tianshu. On the other side. From beginning to end, Li Bi and Zhang Xiaojing did not even have a chance to look at each other.

Li Bi was tied upside down with his hands and was escorted away from Tianshu by the guard. They walked down the Denglou along the suspension bridge, down to Xuanguan, and then to the underground palace under Xuanguan. The six huge water wheels still twirled in the dark. Soon, they will continue to go to Master Mao ’s institution and let the whole lamp tower come to life.

"It's a coincidence." Li Bi watched the giant wheel and could not help expressing emotion. Compared with the prosperity and luxury of the surface light tower, he feels that this part hidden deep underground is the real subtlety.

The guard gave him a sympathetic glance. The official seemed to have no idea of ​​his own destiny, and was he still enjoying the scenery? He drew the knife from his waist: "Li Sicheng, Master Longbo asked me to give me a word, to give Si Cheng's corpse Jie Shengxian."

Li Mi didn't move, he couldn't move either, his arms were still firmly tied behind his back. But Li Mi's expression was indifferent and seemed to have a hunch about it.

The guard said with a smile: "My daughter-in-law was abducted by a little white face like you. Today, you have been treated on behalf of the rabbit, I will kill as slowly as possible." His knife stretched slowly to Li Mi's chest , Want to pick a heart of flesh first.

Suddenly, Li moved. His arms shuddered suddenly, and the rope fell. The young and weak official, holding a small iron file in his right hand, plunged into the guard's temple. The guard was suddenly attacked, and subconsciously flew a foot, kicking Li Mi down in the corner.

This dying counterattack, full of force, Li Bi felt that all his internal organs and organs were smashed, a ray of blood flowing out of the corner of his mouth. He gasped for a long time before struggling to get up. The guard was already lying on the ground and was dying in anger. On the temple on the left, only a small handle of the iron file could be seen-the tie just now was really deep enough.

With a cry, a bronze medal fell from Li Mi to the ground. This is Zhang Xiaojing's waist card that he had just returned to Li Mi in the Lingguan Pavilion. The small iron file was buckled inside and tucked into the belt together. No one but them noticed.

Li Bi leaned back against the wall of the soil, rubbing his sore wrist, and his inner feelings were mixed. In his mind, Zhang Xiaojing's abrupt remark emerged unexpectedly:

"You are not suitable for the position of Jing'an Secretary Cheng, you might as well go back to the monastery. Bye, Sanqing, begging eleven Yao, pushing the gossip order, visiting the four mountains and five mountains, nothing is better than in Jingan Division-but if Sicheng If you want to avenge me, I'm afraid you have to go to the eighteenth floor of hell. "

Zhang Xiaojing was not a cultivator. As soon as he spoke, Li Bi was keenly aware that there was a hidden mystery in it. With his wisdom, he only needs to think about it carefully, and then he knows that the key lies in the numbers.

Three, eleven, eight, four, five, eighteen

This is the sequence in "Tang Yun", and the people of Jing Ansi are familiar with it. The third is to go, the eleventh team, the eighth word is "retreat"; the fourth is to enter the sound, the fifth thing, the eighteenth word is "no".

Translated is two words.

This is Yao Runeng's mind and Tanqi's mind, and Zhang Xiaojing's mind has never changed:

Never retreat.
