The Great Wei Music Bureau

Chapter 299 Fengquanyi

Last time, we talked about how Li Yi and his companions first saw the sun and the moon shining together at dusk, and then saw a post station that appeared out of thin air. So how will the story develop next? Let's read on.

Li Yi held the lotus pod in his hand and looked in the direction of Liu Ruyun's finger. In the distance, there was a large pond, a two-story building and a stable next to it. It really looked like a post station. The Central Plains-style building and the outer wall that was not at all dilapidated seemed out of place in this Western Region grassland.

Butler Zhou said, "How could there be a post station here?"

Zhang Biao was also puzzled and asked, "It looks like the style of the Qin Dynasty. Could it have been built during the previous dynasty?"

Steward Zhou said coldly, "The previous dynasty? Did you see that the house was a little damaged? How long has the Qin Dynasty been destroyed? Why is this post station intact? Isn't this strange?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "It is certainly strange, but no matter how strange it is, what can it do? I am afraid that even stranger things are to come after this. Let's go! Let's go and take a look."

After hearing what Li Yi said, Xiao Ziyi asked, "If there is no problem, can I sleep in the bed again tonight?"

Liu Ruyun said in a stern voice, "You dare to sleep in a post station that appeared out of nowhere? Aren't you afraid of ghosts?"

Xiao Ziyi said sternly: "Don't be afraid, this hero is not afraid of anything!"

The group of people stopped at the entrance of the post station and saw the three characters of Fengquan Post Station written in Qinli on the plaque. Looking at this spotless post station, even Langya felt strange and asked, "It's so clean without anyone here. Isn't this post station for ghosts to live in?"

Liu Ruyun asked Li Yi: "Are you planning to go in and take a look?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "You guys wait for me at the door, I'll go in and take a look." After that, he used the Vajra Power and stepped into the door.

The horse suddenly snorted, which scared Zhang Biao. He shouted, "This is not a good sign! Why don't we hurry up and leave? This post station looks scary. Anyway, I don't dare to stay here."

At this time, Li Yi pushed open the window on the second floor. He smiled and said, "We'll stay here tonight. You guys can pick a room. I've already picked one. I'll stay in this one!"

Liu Ruyun asked, "Are you kidding or serious?"

Li Yi replied: "Of course I am serious!"

Xiao Ziyi smiled and was about to walk in when she heard this, but Liu Ruyun reached out and grabbed her, signaling her not to move. Xiao Daxia asked curiously, "Hasn't Li Yi already investigated it?"

Liu Ruyun said in a cold voice: "The one just now was not Li Yi!" As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ziyi got goosebumps all over the floor, and Guard Zhang and Butler Zhou also had their hair standing on end.

Butler Zhou asked, "What do you mean, Master Liu?"

Liu Ruyun said calmly: "Li Yi just disappeared from our sight and appeared in the window. When did he become so good at body movement?"

At this moment, the window on the second floor was pushed open again by Li Yi. He stuck his head out and said with a smile: "Come in, it's very clean here. Someone must have cleaned it. It seems like they were waiting for us!"

Xiao Ziyi, Butler Zhou, and Guard Zhang looked at Li Yi with fear. Liu Ruyun's right hand turned into a sword finger, and purple air gathered at the fingertips, and she drew it in front of her eyes. This was the Confucian and Taoist Qi-reading technique. She was using it to confirm whether this Li Yi was real or not, and then said, "Come down, there's something strange here!"

Li Yi smiled and said, "What's so strange about this? Never mind, just wait, I'll go down right away." As he said that, Li Yi closed the window and instantly appeared at the door of the post station.

Without saying anything, Liu Ruyun waved his sword finger, and an ice sword appeared in the air and pierced Li Yi's chest directly! Suddenly, Li Yi's appearance changed, and he became a man wearing a mask and hiding in a black cloak. It's not quite right to call him a man, because he exuded a faint black aura all over his body!

Xiao Ziyi and the others quickly switched to combat mode, and each of them got ready, but Liu Ruyun reached out to stop them, staring at the black cloak and asked, "Who are you? Why are you playing tricks on me?"

The man just said calmly: "Because I am a ghost! Soon you will become ghosts like me!" As he spoke, he stretched out two black hands that looked like they were burnt from his sleeves and walked towards Liu Ruyun!

Liu Ruyun held a sword with his right hand, and with a swipe of his left hand, an ice sword appeared in his hand. He then gathered positive energy from his fingertips and injected it into the ice sword, saying, "You guys step back, I'll block it first! You guys wait for Li Yi to come out!"

The man in the black cloak laughed and said, "You can't hurt me at all! You'd better die quickly!" He floated into the air. Xiao Ziyi swung a sword, and the sword energy passed through his body without causing any damage.

Liu Ruyun shouted, "You two take Ziyi back first, I'll find a way to hold him back!"

Steward Zhou and Zhang Biao pulled Xiao Ziyi back at the same time. Liu Ruyun stepped on the ice sword, and the sword fingers of both hands condensed purple energy. At this moment, golden light suddenly spread in the post station, and the black cloak suddenly turned back.

Liu Ruyun seized the opportunity and stabbed forward, but when she touched the black cloak, it went right through her. It felt like she hit it, but it also seemed like she hit nothing.

The man in the black cloak turned around and said coldly: "Buddhism is indeed troublesome!"

At this time, Li Yi, dressed in purple and gold, walked out of the gate of the post station and said with a smile: "If you want to trap me, at least use some decent methods! Are you going to fight me now, or are you going to run away? If you don't run away, you will have no chance!"

The man in the black cloak said coldly: "Don't be happy too soon. I will definitely kill you next time we meet!" After he finished speaking, his body began to fade, and finally disappeared out of thin air!

Liu Ruyun asked: "What's going on?"

Li Yi waved his hand to signal everyone to go in and talk. Several people stood still. Li Yi smiled and said, "This is indeed a trap, but the man just now has left, so don't worry. You can stay here tonight."

Liu Ruyun and the others still didn't move. Li Yi shouted, "Yu Jiu, bring your bedding and come with me to pick a room!" Yu Jiu responded, picked up the bedding and walked into the inn without any hesitation.

After a while, Li Yi pushed open the window on the second floor again. He smiled and said, "If you don't dare to come in and stay here, then you can set up a tent outside and sleep. There are beds here."

Hearing about the bed, Xiao Ziyi looked at Liu Ruyun with some excitement. The latter did not speak and was still hesitating. At this time, Langya moved a bed in. Xiao Ziyi stopped him and asked, "You don't even know what's going on inside, so you want to move in?"

Langya said sternly, "Since you said so, how can I not believe you?"

Xiao Ziyi asked: "Don't you find it strange?"

Langya said calmly: "It's strange, but since the young master said it's okay, then it must be okay." After saying that, he walked into the post station.

Li Yi's voice came from the second floor: "Butler Zhou, Guard Zhang, please light a fire and cook. Oh, and check if there are any fish in the pond! If there are, find a way to catch two to improve the food! Find fish with few bones! I find it troublesome to pick out the bones!"

The two agreed and started to get busy. Xiao Ziyi asked, "Aunt Yun, what should we do? Should we go in or not?" Liu Ruyun nodded and stepped inside with Xiao Ziyi.

It looked like an ordinary post station, but it was empty. There were two sets of tables and chairs in the lobby on the first floor. The two sat at the table and watched Li Yi rummaging around for something. Xiao Ziyi asked, "What are you looking for?"

Li Yi complained: "That guy didn't even leave us some wine or meat or anything. He has no sincerity at all!"

Liu Ruyun asked, "Do you know that person just now?"

Li Yi opened a jar of wine, smelled it and said with a smile: "That's right, you still have a conscience. You have to be sincere when asking for help. This wine is good!" As he said that, Li Yi sat next to Liu Ruyun holding the jar of wine.

Xiao Ziyi asked, "Auntie Yun is asking you a question. Do you know that person just now?"

Li Yi nodded and said, "I know him. Although we are not very familiar with each other, we have chatted for a few minutes."

Liu Xiao and the other asked at the same time: "Who is it?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "He is a Zoroastrian priest. He followed the Di tribe envoys to Shangjing to pay respects to the Queen Mother on her birthday. I injured Zhai Baishan, and I chatted with him for a few words when I went to visit him. That's all we know."

Liu Ruyun asked again: "You just said he asked you for help, what help?"

Li Yi stood up, brought a few bowls, placed them on the table, poured some wine in them, took a sip and said, "Save him."

Xiao Ziyi was surprised and asked, "Save him? What's going on? Isn't he a Zoroastrian? Why do you need to save him?"

Li Yi urged Zhang Biao, "Is the meal ready? I've already poured the wine! When can we eat the grilled fish?"

Zhang Biao shouted, "Please wait a moment, sir. We need to grill the fish for a while longer. The rice will be ready soon!"

Butler Zhou came in with a steamed bun and said with a smile: "If you are hungry, you might as well eat a steamed bun first."

Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Who wants steamed buns when there's grilled fish?"

Liu Ruyun reached out and took a steamed bun, broke it in half and gave half to Xiao Ziyi. The latter took the bun and murmured, "Auntie Yun, don't we eat grilled fish?"

Liu Ruyun said calmly: "If there is no problem after they finish eating, we can eat later!"

Xiao Ziyi nodded, and Butler Zhou smiled and said, "Master Liu is too cautious. I just checked it and it is indeed fine. It is not poisonous. There is greenery around the pond, like an oasis in the desert, a piece of pure land. When the fish is grilled, we can eat it directly."

Liu Ruyun asked Li Yi: "What's going on? Why are you avoiding this topic? Or is there something you can't tell us?"

Li Yi saw that he couldn't escape, so he put down his wine bowl and said, "I didn't say it because I was afraid you would be scared."

Liu Ruyun said seriously: "Since you are here, what are you afraid of? Even if you are afraid, can you go back?"

Li Yi nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, now that we are here, there is no turning back. I will tell you the whole story while we eat later."

Soon, Butler Zhou, Zhang Biao, Yu Jiu and Lang Ya all sat down at the table, and grilled fish and rice were also placed on the table. Li Yi poured a bowl of wine for each of them, even Lang Ya, and everyone knew that it was of great significance.

Li Yi picked up the bowl and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous, it's no big deal, it's not a life-or-death situation, drink this bowl of wine first, there will be no more wine to drink later!"

Zhang Biao drank it all in one gulp, then reached out and poured another bowl and said, "Sir, just say whatever you want to say. I can take it!"

Li Yi smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll be frank. You've all heard of the phrase 'Smiling in the Nine Springs', right?" Everyone shook their heads. Li Yi waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. You've heard of it in the Nine Springs, right?"

Zhang Biao spat out a mouthful of wine and shouted, "Master, you are not trying to say that the pond behind us is the underworld!"

Li Yi shook his head and smiled, "No, no, no, that pond is Fengquan. This Fengquan Posthouse was discovered and built by the Qin Dynasty's first emperor who sent people to seek immortals and ask for advice. It only appears when Tai'an Niangniang wakes up and cannot be seen at other times.

There is nothing dilapidated here because this is a building that has been sealed off from the past. The green land around here has not been eroded by the Eternal Night Flower because there is something more powerful than the Eternal Night Flower, which is Fengquan. "

Everyone was looking at Li Yi, and he told them what happened after he entered the room:

At that time, Li Yi used the Vajra Power and was pulled into a magic circle as soon as he entered the door. The purpose of this magic circle was not to trap him, but to buy more time, because the effect of this magic circle was to make the time flow of people in the circle dozens of times slower than that of the outside world.

As soon as Li Yi entered the formation, he discovered the secret. He saw Liu Ruyun and others outside the formation standing still, while inside the formation, the Zoroastrian priest Xian Mu Ding, who was the priest who followed the Di tribe delegation to Shangjing to celebrate the birthday, was sitting in the formation waiting for Li Yi.

Only when he saw Xian Muding reach out and take off his mask did Li Yi recognize him, so he sat down and talked with him. Xian Muding told Li Yi everything he knew and could say, and asked him for help.
