Chapter 154 Chapter 38 Four People

I looked desperately at the tree of life, at the golden arrow hanging in the sky, the sadness in my heart spread like crazy, why did I become like this?Why? I, Xiaoguang, and Fan Li are indeed just a person who has lived for 20 or 30 years, but why we have so many special places, things really have to start thousands of years ago. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the State of Yue became a vassal of the State of Wu, and King Gou Jian of Yue suffered a lot. When the country was in crisis, Xi Shi endured the humiliation and committed himself to the state.But in history, more than one beautiful woman was sent from Yue, besides Xi Shi, there was also a woman named Zheng Dan.They became King Wu's favorite concubines, and they confused King Wu so much that they deserted their relatives and had no interest in state affairs.Later, Wu State was finally destroyed by Goujian.After Wu's death, Xishi lost her news. There are many endings about her, so let's not talk about it here.

Historically, Zheng Dan died before the state of Wu was destroyed. She and Xi Shi came from the same village, and had the same duties in Wu. However, Zheng Dan’s fate was not as good as Xi Shi’s. Even her death was always a mystery.Later generations have many literary associations about Zheng Dan's death, but they are all tragic. In fact, neither of the two women died. Back then, when they entered Wu, they firstly wanted to confuse the king of Wu and ruin the country of Wu, and secondly, they wanted something very secret.This secret thing is inextricably linked with Ou Yezi.In other words, Ou Yezi, who was good at forging swords, was highly regarded by the King of Yue and became famous, and the name of Ou Yezi gradually spread in various countries.Although he also forged swords for other countries, no one knew his secret.One day, an unknown generation of Ou Yezi died suddenly. The king of Yue sent people to investigate, and finally found out that it was the people of Wu who did it, but Ou Yezi was not dead. The sword was taken away." Ou Yezi has been making swords for the Yue Kingdom, until the generation of Ou Yezi was assassinated and died, and the inheritance of the secrets of Ou Yezi's family was interrupted.

The person who heard Ou Yezi's words before his death was Fan Li. He was originally from Chu, but he made a strange choice.At that time, King Goujian of Yue was defeated, and only 5,000 soldiers fled to Kuaiji Mountain. When Goujian was at the end of his life, Fan Li went to Yue to help him rejuvenate the country.When the King of Yue was defeated, Fan Li proposed a strategy of donating beautiful women as spies in order to restore the country.Everyone knows only one, but not the other. In addition to many reasons for the defeat of the Yue Kingdom, another reason was that the weapons were not as good as before, because Ou Yezi's descendants could no longer forge sharp swords.Fan Li has been tracking down the murderer who killed Ou Yezi, and finally learned that the mastermind of the murder was the King of Wu, so Fan Li believed that the thing Ou Yezi mentioned should be with the King of Wu.

During their trip to Wu, Xi Shi and Zheng Dan kept looking for the thing belonging to Ou Yezi, but they never found it.One day, Zheng Dan discovered the thing belonging to Ou Yezi, but she died mysteriously afterwards, and the cause of her death is still unclear.However, Xi Shi and Zheng Dan were kind-hearted women. They adopted three children since they entered Wu, including two girls and one boy.Zheng Dan adopted a boy, and Xi Shi adopted two girls. On the night after Zheng Dan died, the boy she adopted and the two girls adopted by Xi Shi also disappeared. Characters are irrelevant. It turned out that these three children already knew the purpose of Xishi and Zheng Dan's entry into Wu. When they left Wuyue, they took the boy adopted by Fan Li away with them.In order to commemorate the person who adopted them, the four children each took the name of the adopter as their own name.The child adopted by Fan Li was named Fan Li; Xi Shi was named Yi Guang, so one of the girls she adopted was named Xiao Guang. Xi Shi adopted two girls, and the other one could no longer be called Xiao Guang, so she simply chose Zheng Dan’s name as her own. Zheng Dan's adopted boy could never take a woman's name, so he called himself Jin Wanzang.

Jin Wanzang has a close relationship with Zheng Dan. Although he is very young, he has become delicate because of his frequent contact with people in the deep palace.After Zheng Dan entered Wu, she was not as favored as Xi Shi, but she was smarter, because she got through the confidants of King Wu and found out the whereabouts of Ou Yezi's thing.When Zheng Dan found the thing, she hurriedly handed it over to Jin Wanzang, and told Jin Wanzang to return to Yue State quickly and hand it over to the King of Yue. behavior, that's why Zheng Dan died inexplicably. Ou Yezi's item was actually a golden arrow and an old silk book. Jin Wanzang didn't want to send the golden arrow and silk book back to Yue.He invited two other women, as well as the boy adopted by Fan Li, to set off together for a mysterious place.It is written in the silk script that there is a celestial vein in the southwest, which can cultivate spiritual weapons, give people eternal life, and even have the power to rival a country.Jin Wanzang persuaded the others, and the children secretly left the land of Wuyue to find Ou Yezi's secret.

However, in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, the mountains and fields in Shenzhou were endless, and it was difficult for a few children to cross the river and reach their destination.During this journey, they suffered a lot, and the four of them gradually developed heart knots.In order to bind each other and prove that they will not be separated, they divided the silk scroll into four parts, each holding one.Although they restrained each other so much, after all, they shared weal and woe and had a solid emotional foundation, so they still walked to that southwest place together.

At this time, ten years have passed, and they have grown from children to adults. Although the silk book is simple, they have read it over and over again for ten years, and they know the mysteries in it.The land of the Southwest is in the deep mountains of Guangxi in ancient times. There is an underground nation hidden here. The four people found a secret entrance, avoided the guards of the underground nation, and found the tree of life mentioned in the silk script.This tree of life is an ancient spiritual wood that integrates the aura of heaven and earth, but it cannot make people live forever, but the flower of life it blooms has a magical function.

Although the human body will become old and corrupt, the spirit is an indestructible energy. It sometimes dissipates because the energy is not strong, but if a specific energy is added to the spirit, it can continue to exist in this world. in the world.Although the four children did not understand such a reason, they stayed secretly in the underground ancient city for half a year according to the contents of the silk script.Because according to the silk script, it will take half a year for the flower of life to bloom again, and a mysterious thing will appear after the flower blooms, which can double the spiritual energy.

Half a year later, Jin Wanzang avoided the other three with an excuse and entered the deep pit secretly, waiting for the flower of life to bloom.After the flower bloomed, five bright beads appeared in the heart of the flower. Jin Wanzang took possession of them excitedly, but he didn't want to disturb the underground residents guarding the tree of life.The people in the underground ancient city wore clothes from the Yue country, but they didn't speak Vietnamese. Jin Wanzang knew that he couldn't communicate, and that being caught would be a dead end, so he fled in a hurry. The other three partners were dismissed by Jin Wanzang, so they were not discovered by the people in the underground ancient city. After Jin Wanzang escaped, he lied that he had no intention of finding the secret of the golden arrow and silk book, so he wanted to leave the three of them.However, Xiaoguang has fallen in love with Jin Wanzang, she is not willing to let him leave, so she follows secretly, but unexpectedly finds out that Jin Wanzang has deceived everyone.

Jin Wanzang deceived Xiaoguang, saying that he would take him far away, but he wanted to use Xiaoguang as an experimental product to try the power of the five beads.One day, Xiaoguang fell off a cliff by his design, and his life was dying. Jin Wanzang stole a baby from a farm family and put him beside Xiaoguang.Jin Wanzang took Ye Mingzhu out and told Xiaoguang to strengthen her consciousness and think about entering the baby's body.These five beads really strengthened Xiaoguang's spiritual energy, or soul, and Xiaoguang's consciousness did enter the baby's body.Because the baby's mental energy is very weak, Xiao Guang drives away the baby's consciousness and occupies the baby's body.

In order to verify whether the beads are useful, Jin Wanzang took good care of the baby, cheating one day when the baby could talk, and told him that she was Xiaoguang.Although the body is not Xiaoguang, the baby grows more and more like Xiaoguang.Some people say that history can be changed, your parents are not married, but you can still come to this world.It's like you want to go to a place. You can take a car, a boat, or an airplane. Although the transportation methods are different, the destination can always be reached.Xiaoguang's consciousness received the energy of the beads, and gradually changed the baby's appearance. When she was young, she immediately said that she was Xiaoguang, and told everything about her past with Jin Wanzang. Xiaoguang thought that Jin Wanzang had given her a second life, so she loved Jin Wanzang wholeheartedly, but fate played a trick on her. Zheng Dan and Fan Li found them and discovered the growing up. little light.Although they knew the secret, none of them dared to take the initiative to die first. It was not until they were old that they tried the Ye Mingzhu for the first time.The stolen baby became their sojourning body, and these four people with different hearts came together again. Because the spirits of the four people can exist for a long time, but they dare not reveal this secret to outsiders, and they are even more afraid of causing death.Although the four are fighting against each other, they know that only the other can accompany them forever. Even if they fall in love with someone else, their relationship will not last unless they reveal their secrets, but none of the four dares to reveal their secrets. Tell it in secret. However, Zheng Dan gradually fell in love with a man who was not a companion, and she told the secret, which finally caused a disaster.The five beads were stolen by that man, and since then they have been gone like a yellow crane. Because the four of them tasted the taste of the spirit, although it is bitter, it is an attractive thing, so they decided to get up and look for this man.Zheng Dan knew it was his fault, but he refused to admit it, and the conflict between the four became deeper and deeper. However, they didn't know that Zheng Dan's men didn't steal the five beads, and the five beads were still with them, still on Jin Wanzang's body.All of this was deliberately designed by Jin Wanzang. He made Zheng Dan fall in love with a man and told the secret to let everyone know that their secret had been leaked.Then, Jin Wanzang killed the man during the night, so that everyone would think that the man had taken over the beads, and he would then be able to monopolize the five magical beads. The four of them couldn't find it anywhere, so they had to go back to the southwest to find out the origin of the underground nation. Unexpectedly, they found out a bigger secret. It turned out that what they knew was only the tip of the iceberg!
