If really has the thing of cultivation world, can the breakthrough innate method, teach to little Yuan child.” “十年总算没白忙活,终于有所收获。若是真有修仙界之物,可以将突破先天的法门,传授给小袁子。” The Zhou Yi bathing burning incense washes the hands, opens p. 1. 周易沐浴焚香洗手,翻开第一页。 Southwestern Xuzhou, is struck by lightning hundred years of peach tree, sends the sprout. In the following year bore the alone peach, the weight three jin (0.5 kg) 72, had the phthisis food to recover. 徐州西南,雷击百年桃树,又发新芽。次年结独桃,重三斤七两,有痨病者食之而愈。 Good that „little Yuan child makes, knowing anything is the real fantastic story. That boy who the northwest reclaims wasteland, with me said that has the unusual animals present world, the result brushed the pig of gold lacquer!” “小袁子做的不错,知晓什么是真的奇闻。西北垦荒的那厮,与我说有异兽现世,结果是刷了金漆的猪！” For ten years collected much different heard, except the strategic place of not good confirmation, could not seek the outstandingly able person of trail, remaining did not have the relations with the immortal. 十年来搜集了不少异闻,除去不好验证的险地,寻不到踪迹的奇人,剩下的与仙人全无关系。 Artificial forge, either natural phenomenon. 或者人为伪造,或自然现象。 Zhou Yi once suspected that in the world does have the immortal! 周易一度怀疑世上有没有仙人！ „Northeast Xuzhou, the military district produces the strong liquor, the Jing Long 14 years has the outstandingly able person to buy wine......” “徐州东北,武县产烈酒,景隆十四年有奇人沽酒……” Zhou Yi opens p. 2, side also has the picture, the palm of the hand big wine pot, is rustically shaped, pattern not Fengyang country style. 周易翻开第二页,旁边还带有图片,巴掌大的酒壶,造型古朴,花纹不似凤阳国样式。 „little Yuan child is still working attentively!” “小袁子依然在用心做事！” Continues to turn backward, most fantastic stories, sound like that a matter. 继续向后翻,大多数奇闻,听起来像那么回事。 Perhaps Yuan Shun does not believe that what immortal cultivation immortal, only thinks „Rotation King” old was insane, 袁顺或许不相信什么修仙长生,只以为“轮转王”老了疯了, This is also the ideas of most board game pieces, however will therefore actually not deal with the matter ambiguously. Naturally, the concrete genuine and fake must nose. 这也是大多数棋子的想法,然而却不会因此含糊应付事。当然,具体真假还需查探。 In Xuzhou eastern Yunshan, covers for the fog year to year, dispatching the orange-red to ride the investigation, the darkness inexplicably. 徐州境内云山东麓,常年为云雾笼罩,遣缇骑探查,天黑莫名而出。 „Is Yunshan!” “又是云山！” The Zhou Yi vision concentrates, during ten years have several fantastic stories, are related with Yunshan. 周易目光微凝,十年间已经有数条奇闻,与云山相关。 Such as the local villagers see the rainbow light to fall into the mountain, sees to wear the odd person of different clothing/taking to ask the way, at night the common unusual animals shout wait/etc. 诸如当地村民见虹光落入山中,见穿装异服的怪人问路,夜间常有异兽嘶吼等等。 „If Yunshan has the cultivator, the so obvious trace, Chongming emperor can't check?” “如果云山有修行者,如此明显的痕迹,崇明帝难道查不出来？” Zhou Yi takes the lead to think is not noses, but suspects the Yunshan news, after all all fantastic stories are others transmit, the genuine and fake do not talk clearly. 周易率先想到的不是去查探,而是怀疑云山消息,毕竟所有奇闻都是别人传来,真真假假说不清楚。 „These must have the fishy!” “这其中必有蹊跷！” In the Fengyang border, similar was not enterable, to have the boundary of fantastic story, Zhou Yi has discovered seven. 凤阳国境内,类似不可进入、带有奇闻的地界,周易已经发现了七处。 All in the middle of the hills deep forest, is the dwelling place of celestial beings paradise or the natural strategic place, has not had the definite answer. 全是在群山深林当中,是仙家福地还是天然险地,尚未有确切答案。 Continues to look back. 继续向后看。 The Jing Long 12 years, the cypress underwater roaming present river monster, the rumor is five zhang (3.33 m) azure flood dragon, must take the boys and girls as the sacrifice. Latter has the immortal to tread the rainbow to come, the sword cuts the river monster, the common people sets up the ancestral hall to consecrate! 景隆十二年,柏水下游现河妖,传言为五丈青蛟,须以童男童女为祭。后有仙人踏虹而来,剑斩河妖,百姓立祠供奉！ „This can have a look!” “这个可以去看看！” Zhou Yi folded this page, pondered over carefully, also smooths it. 周易将此页折了,仔细琢磨了下,又将其抚平。 „Immortal, evades temporarily, but far it.” “仙人,暂避而远之。” Book end page. 册子末页。 In January of this year, Bailu western Xuzhou, the brocade uniformed guard searches everywhere for the hills presently, offers in May/five months in Divine Capital.
