Chapter 36: Revisiting the Symbol Diagram
Chi Yu lived a comfortable life in the mountain village, with Chi Yun and his wife around him, and Yun Shang also taught some martial arts.
Grandma Qin lived on the mountain outside the village and passed on the information from outside one by one. The village was well-informed.
But Chi Yun always has an ununsolvable knot in his heart. That is the secret contained in the talisman map in his hand. The talisman map has nine pieces in total. The nine pieces can reveal the secrets when they are connected together. This part in Chi Yun's hand is very precious and unique.
"Yun Shang has also seen it, I don't know where he has seen it! He seems to have mentioned it!" This was a mystery in Chi Yun's mind. He must figure out how Yun Shang knew this secret.
On a clear afternoon, Chi Yun sent someone to call Yun Shang. Yun Shang entered the house. After saluting, Chi Yun asked him to sit down and the servants gave him tea.
"Yun Shang, you and I have been together for so long. Last time, since you said you had seen Futu before, I have always had something to say to you, but I just don't have time. Today, we have time, let's have a good chat!" Chi Yun said.
"Okay! Master of the Manor, just give me some instructions. Yun Shangzhi said everything, and every sentence is true, and I will never lie!" As he said that, he patted his chest, his eyes full of loyalty.
Chi Yun knew that Yun Shang would never lie.
"Yun Shang, then, let me talk about what you know about Futu!" Chi Yun said in a low and powerful tone. After that, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, but he did not swallow it directly, but let the tea flow in his mouth and then swallow it again, so that the tea smells full of tea.
Yun Shang also took a sip of tea, followed by his appearance, and then put down the tea cup and started talking about the serious matters.
"Twenty years ago, I was a child. At that time, I had not gotten married yet, but I had a crush on someone. My aunt was not an old woman at that time, and she was very beautiful. Later, she got married to my uncle. But only a few years after the marriage, my uncle died. My aunt said that my uncle's death was related to the talisman map, but I heard her say it once, and she has never mentioned it again since then." Yun Shang said.
"So, continue to say." Chi Yun was afraid that he would stop, so he urged him on the side.
"When my aunt talked about Fu Tu, I was only eleven years old and didn't understand anything. She didn't say it in front of me, but she and her uncle were talking in the room. I walked past the window and heard it by chance." Yun Shang said.
"Oh! Oh! It's so long-winded! Your aunt, oh, that Grandma Qin, what did you say?" Chi Yun said, he was a little anxious.
"She said, "What kind of lord is there, and what kind of bamboo orders are there? That's all! There's nothing else!" Yun Shang said.
"Then, how did your uncle die?" Chi Yun asked.
"I don't know, I heard from my aunt that it seems that someone was plotting against me!" Yun Shang replied.
The two of them picked up their tea cups and took a sip of the tea.
"Master, what do you think of the mountain spring water here? "Yun Shang asked, "Can you compare to the water in Chihao Villa?"
When Chi Yun heard Yun Shang's words, a sad feeling surged into his heart, and his face immediately became dark clouds.
After a while, Chi Yun said, "Yun Shang, don't change the topic, let's continue to talk about the Talismans!"
Seeing that he said the wrong thing, Yun Shang immediately said, "Oh! I said the wrong thing, owner of the manor, don't be surprised!"
Chi Yun said, "It's nothing, you're just talking unintentionally! It's not a wrong thing! Sometimes I think about things that happened, but what's the use! Real estate and money are all things outside of your body. You won't bring them in life or death. You can't pay too much attention. You can only let go of your mind and stop thinking about them anymore!" After saying that, he forced a smile.
Yun Shang knew that after experiencing so many hardships, the owner of the manor must be very painful, but he just won't say it out.
"Well, how long does Grandma Qin go back to the village?" Chi Yun asked.
"About ten days! Is there anything you have?" Yun Shang asked.
"Oh! There is nothing wrong, I want to ask her, what new news is outside! By the way, ask about Futu! "Chi Yun said, "It's nothing more! Yun Shang, you go back first! Be sure to guard the entrance to the copycat, and you must not make any mistakes! Have you remembered it?"
"Okay! Please rest assured, the owner of the manor, I, Yun Shang, will definitely be attentive!" After saying that, I quit.
Chi Yun felt that he was under too much pressure and was thinking about some useless things. The Talisman Affairs had nothing to do with him, so he didn't care about it!
So, when he thought of this, he came to the yard. Here, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the scenery is unique, and there are large areas of fertile fields. People are hardworking and hardworking, and they are natural and simple. They can be said to have a harmonious relationship, help each other, and have enough food and clothing. It is a good place for a good garden.
He thought: "It just happened to be nothing today, so why not go to various small villages to check out the defense."
The entire village faces north and south, and is backed by the mountains. There is only a way out to the south. In front of the village gate, there is a large forest. The village gate is hidden in the woods. There is also a large open space in front of the forest. The mountain people have already dug tunnels and trenches on the open space, arranged traps and trapped horse pits, inserted iron arrows into the pits, and guarded them every day. Such defense is really an "impure".
"It's both food and drink, and it's absolutely safe. There's really no need to be sad all day long." Thinking of this, the clouds on Chi Yun slowly dissipated!
Following the mountain road, Chi Yun walked to the first small village on the left, and saw a few children playing hide-and-seek. One of them was covered with a black cloth, and he was walking slowly, his hands were scratching up and down, and his mouth was still laughing, saying something only children could understand.
"Chi Yu, where is Chi Yu?" Chi Yun suddenly remembered his son, and he also liked to play hide-and-seek games.
At this time, the wife and Chi Yun were really here. Chi Yu ran and jumped. The wife couldn't catch him at all. He was not obedient. The wife had no choice. Anyway, it was in this copycat that there was no need to worry too much. Let him go!
After seeing Chiyun, Chiyu ran over quickly and said to his father: "Can you catch up with me?" As he said that, he ran forward again.
It took a long time since Chi Yun and his wife hadn't seen Chi Yu so happy. They also ran away from behind. The main reason was that they were afraid of losing their followers, because Chi Yu was walking too fast!
After seeing the owner of the village, the people in the village stopped their work and watched silently.
They knew that their happy life was brought by this owner, and their sincere gratitude was reflected on their faces!
