    ?Chapter 107 Down the Mountain

    Going around the fence to the back of the bamboo house, you can see another ancient wood forest.

    "Follow the footsteps of the old man." Yun Fu stepped into the forest after admonishing.

    Xiao Ranqing glanced at the forest in front of her eyes, and then carried her inside.  She carefully followed Yun Fu's instructions, and every step fell on his deliberately deep footprints, not daring to be careless.  Ordinary people may not know it, but Xiao Ranqing can see it clearly.  The formation in this chaotic forest is obviously much more complicated than the one in front of the courtyard.  Moreover, this piece of ancient forest and the area around the stone wall are almost connected, and the two formations are cleverly combined into one. The effect is not as simple as one plus one.  In addition, she was keenly aware of the hidden murderous intentions in this battle.  Yunxiao killed and attacked all his life, and the murderous aura of the mausoleum guarding formation should have been awe-inspiring.  It's just that for the sake of Xiao Ranqing, if one step is wrong, the body may be killed on the spot.

    Three steps and one turn, five steps and one circle, finally arrived at an open space in the middle of the forest.  There is a basalt stone tablet standing in the open space. There is no writing on the tablet, only a simple pattern is engraved on it.  Xiao Ranqing recognized at a glance that it was the tiger pattern on the general's helmet that Yun Xiao personally bestowed upon her when she was named a general.  If there is no accident, this should be Yunxiao's resting place.  She asked Yun Fu with her eyes, and seeing him nodding, Xiao Ranqing stepped forward slowly, and gently caressed the stone tablet with her white and tender palm, she couldn't help sighing.  Her general, who lives high in the temple will protect her country, and if she is far away in the rivers and lakes, she will guard her mausoleum.  Even if he dies, he will set his resting place next to her mausoleum, and be with her as he promised when he was young.  How can such a friendship be repaid by a simple high-ranking official and generous salary?

    Just as Xiao Ranqing was feeling disappointed, Yun Fu had walked around the stele several times at a specific frequency.  Suddenly there was a "click" sound, and the ground behind the stele was cracked.  Yun Fu pointed to the stone steps in the cave and asked Xiao Ranqing who came back to his senses, "Miss Su, would you like to go in with the old man?"

    Xiao Ranqing glanced at the bottomless stone steps, "Is there a torch?"

    When Yun Fu heard the words, he walked down the stone steps, and wherever he walked, there were flames dancing.  It turns out that there are oil lamps at intervals on both sides of the stone steps, which can be illuminated by folding a little with fire.  Xiaoranqing raised her eyebrows, and the lamp oil was not dry, which meant that someone refilled it regularly, and it was self-evident who that person was.

    Although the stone steps look long and winding, they are actually only a hundred steps.  With the light of the fire leading the way, Xiao Ranqing followed Yun Fu to the end of the stone steps unhurriedly.  At the end of the stone steps is a wide stone room, in which there is nothing but a long stele in the middle.

    "Yun's family precepts?" She had seen Yun's family precepts in Yun Mansion before, and had a vague impression that they were very similar to the contents on this stone tablet.

    "Exactly," Yun Fu stared at the stele, eyes full of reverence.  "This stele was carved by our ancestors themselves. For nearly a thousand years, members of our Yun clan have kept the words on the stele and vowed not to shame our ancestors."

    "It is said that there is also a stone tablet in the Yun family's ancestral tomb on Tianping Mountain, and the family motto in the hands of the Yun family is rubbed from that stone tablet." This is what Xiao Ranqing heard from Yun Jingxi before.

    "That's just a blindfold. This is the stone tablet left by the real ancestor. Whenever a new boy is born in the clan, a copy will be rubbed and sent to the full moon."  Few in the know.  Yun Fu turned to face Xiao Ranqing, "Miss Su knows my Yun family?" If not, how would he know about Yun's family motto and the stele?

    "My father, Su Changfeng, is best friends with Uncle Yunsong and Cheng Yun." Now that Yun Fu has intended to make it clear, Xiaoranqing naturally doesn't need to hide it anymore.

    "Yun Songcheng? Well, it's the kid from Peiwu's family. I've seen that kid before, and he's pretty good." Yun Fu commented after recalling it.  He has not been out of the mountain for many years, but regularly there will be a letter from below telling him what happened recently, "I heard that he has become a general, but it is a pity that Peiwu left early, so I didn't see it." Thinking of his old friend who died young, Yun  It is inevitable to sigh.

    Seeing Yun Fu sighing, Xiao Ranqing didn't bother.  She walked to the stele and read the words on the stele carefully from beginning to end.  Sure enough, it is the same as Yun Jingxi's family motto, every stroke is Yun Xiao's earnest teaching and earnest expectations for his descendants.

    Yun Fu recovered from his emotions, and seeing Xiao Ranqing studying the inscription, he reminded, "Miss Su might as well look at the reverse side."

    The opposite?  Although puzzled, Xiao Ranqing followed her advice and turned to the opposite side.  This is¡­¡­

    "The reason why we want to imitate a stone tablet and place it on Tianping Mountain is because Yuan ancestors lived in seclusion in Tianping Mountain, and the second is to hide the writing on the back of the stone tablet." Yun Fu walked behind Xiao Ranqing and pointed at the stone tablet  A few lines of small characters on the reverse side said, "I, Yun Chen, and dozens of ancestors of the Yun family stayed here in this Tibetan bird mountain, not only to guard the tomb, but also for the last five words."

    Waiting for the return of our lordConcentrating on these five words, Xiao Ranqing couldn't help being stunned.  My lord should be referring to Ying Huaxuan, but how does Yunxiao know that she will return?  Yun Fu saw her doubts, but could only shake his head, "I don't know why my ancestor left such a will, I only know that the few lines of small characters on the back of the stone tablet were added after the ancestor had a secret conversation with Master Huaxiu.  of."

    Huaxiu?  Since there is a Shikong monk who can understand ghosts and gods in the world, it is not surprising that there is another Huaxiu who can predict her reincarnation.  Huaxiu is proficient in wind and water formations, and knows a thing or two about the way of observing the sky and measuring the earth.  Maybe he told Yun Xiao after he noticed it, and that's how the Yun family in today's Cangque Mountain came into existence.

    Everyone in the world knows that the Yun Mansion in Tianping County is the original family of the Yun family, but they don't know that the direct line of the Yun family is in this Tibetan bird mountain.  After the secret conversation between Yunxiao and Huaxiu, he became seriously ill and died within ten days. His son (adopted) Yun Zhonghong obeyed his will in spite of grief, and chose three good-natured and well-qualified leaders from among the many legitimate sons.  Come here and hand it over to Huaxiu.  After more than ten years, these three children not only mastered all the martial arts left by Yunxiao, but also had the honor to teach Huaxiu the way of Fengshui formation.

    After a small success in their studies, the three of them were allowed by Huaxiu to go down the mountain to practice.  This three-year experience is actually a test for them, whether they can withstand the temptation of the world and be willing to be indifferent.  Although the life on the mountain is leisurely and comfortable, it is not as prosperous as the world after all.  Three years later, only two of the three teenagers returned to Cangque Mountain.  When Huaxiu passed away, the youth at that time had already passed away.  They returned to Yunfu, selected three children from the next generation of the Yun family, brought them back to Cangque Mountain, and taught them what they had learned all their lives.  This has been passed down from generation to generation. In Yunfu's generation, he was the only one of the three teenagers who returned to Cangque Mountain.  As for those teenagers who failed the test, Yun Fu could guess without mentioning Xiao Ranqing, they must have been dealt with secretly.  Because they know too many things they shouldn't know.

    "Have you ever complained?" Yun Xiao's last order is indeed a bit overbearing for someone who has the talent to manage the world but has to stay in the mountains and fields, waiting for a so-called master who does not know whether he will appear or not.

    "No, it is Yunfu's fortune to be able to fulfill the ancestor's last wish." Yunfu shook his head, pulled up his robe and knelt down, and kowtowed three times in front of the stele, "Ancestors, Yunfu is fortunate to live up to his fate, and welcome back my lord today.  From now on, Yun Fu and his apprentice Yun Chen will be loyal to the master, please rest in peace for the ancestors." Then he turned to Xiao Ranqing, "Miss Su, from now on, you are the master of Yun Fu and Yun Chen. My master and apprentice  Although the two of you are not talented, I wish to serve the master like a dog, and hope that the master will accept me as master and apprentice."

    Xiao Ranqing reached out to help Yun Fu up, "You don't doubt my identity?"

    "Regardless of whether the tomb owner's statement is true or not, Yun Fu only knows that the lord not only passed the mausoleum protection formation safely, but also answered the two questions left by the ancestors without any mistakes" Yun Xiao has already stated on the stele that our lord will  Appeared in front of the stone wall after a thousand years.  Counting the years, it is now.  Those two questions further verified Xiaoranqing's identity.  Although the theory of reincarnation and rebirth is somewhat mysterious, since it is the ancestor's will, he must fulfill it.

    "Two questions?" Xiao Ranqing raised her eyebrows, she remembered that Yun Fu asked three questions.

    "Returning to the Lord, there are indeed three questions left by the ancestors back then. It's just that the answer to the last question was not written down for some reason." Yun Fu explained.

    Remember that the last question was about her favorite person, Xiao Ranqing frowned, but why did Yunxiao do this?

    "My lord hasn't answered Yun Fu yet, is he willing to keep me, master and apprentice?" Yun Fu asked stubbornly.

    Staring at the black stone tablet, he seemed to see the cold and steady General Daqin through his eyes.  Just because of an illusory prophecy, you did this for me.  Yunxiao, Yunxiao, how do you ask me to repay this friendship?  The breeze brushed over her face, as if to smooth the wrinkles between her brows.  Xiao Ranqing sighed, and had to say that Yunxiao was indeed thoughtful, and what she lacked most at this time was talent.  Turning to face Yun Fu, "Yun Fu, are you sincerely willing to follow me?"

    "Yes." Yun Fu replied without hesitation.

    Xiao Ranqing met his firm gaze, "Then you follow me." Turning her head and looking at the stele again, Yun Xiao, I understand your heart.

    Walking out of the cave along the stone steps, Xiao Ranqing suddenly remembered the breeze just now.  The stone chamber is deep underground, and the walls are all made of white marble. How can the wind be penetrated?  "Yun Fu, how can the stone room be ventilated?"

    "Ventilation?" Yun Fu also frowned when he heard the words. Although it is normal for the wind to enter the cave when it is open, it should not be able to blow into the stone chamber.  "Maybe it's loose somewhere, Yun Fu will send the master back to the bamboo courtyard to rest, and come back to check later."

    "It's getting late, I have to go down the mountain. Tomorrow, I will come again. You asked Yun Chen what he wanted tonight. If he is willing to follow me, then wait for me at the stone wall together at the end of tomorrow."  Moving westward, those people at the foot of the mountain might be waiting impatiently.

    "Yes," Yun Fu led Xiao Ranqing back to the bamboo courtyard, and ordered Yun Chen to send her down the mountain before going back to check the stone room.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)Qing led her back to the bamboo courtyard, ordered Yun Chen to send her down the mountain, and then went back to check the stone room.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
