It's dusk now, the sky is full of colorful clouds, a few rays of twilight are leaning over, and it's getting late.
As a few people walked and chatted, they had already approached His Highness Qionghua. Xiao Muyun led everyone up the steps, followed closely by Mo Guyuan.
After ascending the high platform of the main hall, in front of him was the gate of Qionghua Palace. Mo Guyuan's steps slowed down slightly and he couldn't help but look back behind him.
The white jade in front of me is bright, the space is clean and tidy, and under the city gates in all directions, there are shark figures standing guard. Other than that, there is nothing else in this huge flowing city, it is empty and lonely.
It was late spring in the lonely empty courtyard, with pear blossoms all over the ground and no door open. Mo Guyuan suddenly felt a chill in his heart, but he couldn't explain the reason.
"Hey, what are you looking at?" At some point, Yu Qinggong saw Mo Guyuan lagging behind, so he turned back and said to him.
Mo Guyuan came back to his senses and saw Yu Qingxing looking at him with a clear face. He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "I just looked at the dusk in the distance for a while, and suddenly remembered something."
Yu Qingg was confused and asked subconsciously, "What did you think of?"
"When I was in school, the teacher once asked me to memorize a poem, but I can't remember it clearly. I just remembered that there was a line in it that said, "Look at the sky at dawn and look at the clouds at dusk. I was thinking about it just now when I was lost in thought." Mo Mo said. Gu Yuan scratched his head and said a little embarrassed.
"Look at the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk..." Yu Qingqing muttered again, but also couldn't think of a reason.
She turned her head and looked into the distance, where dusk was turning late, and the light and shadow were lingering and rippling slightly.
The autumn mood is getting deeper and the autumn wind is gradually picking up. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, a huge flowing city looks like an empty city, and this city seems to be firmly locked in the early autumn.
"The rain hits the pear blossoms behind closed doors, forgetting your youth, and missing your youth."
"No matter who enjoys the pleasure, one will be in ecstasy under the flowers, and one will be in ecstasy under the moon."
"The peak of sorrow gathers eyebrows for a thousand days, and there are a thousand marks of crying, and there are ten thousand marks of crying."
"Look at the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk..." In the breeze and dusk, someone was whispering softly.
Mo Guyuan listened and unknowingly said, "I miss you when I walk, I miss you when I sit..."
A wisp of autumn wind blew by Yu Qing's ears. She looked back at Mo Guyuan in a daze, her pupils trembling slightly, as if time traveled through time, her face confused and hesitant.
Mo Guyuan and the others looked around and saw a person slowly walking out of the hall. She appeared in everyone's sight wearing a light blue dress. She was an extremely gentle and delicate woman.
She was thin and pale, but her appearance was indescribably good-looking.
"Susu, it's getting late and it's windy outside, why did you come out?" Xiao Muyun stood at the door of the palace, looked at the woman walking out, and said harmoniously.
"I have been busy weaving shark gauze these days. I happened to have just finished it and wanted to go out for a walk. I didn't expect to meet Grandpa Mu Yun here." The woman named Su Su gave a gentle salute to Shar Mu Yun. , said softly.
Seeing Su Su's thin figure and poor complexion, a trace of pain flashed across Su Su's face inadvertently, and he said slowly, "Tomorrow is your big day, why bother working so hard? Just leave the weaving of the shark kerchief to others."
The woman shook her head and said, "Since it's a big day, that shark gauze is my new wedding dress. I wouldn't worry about handing it over to anyone else. Fortunately, it's been knitted now and won't be in the way. Don't worry, Grandpa Muyun."
Seemingly seeing the stubbornness in the woman's eyes, Xiao Muyun was stunned for a while, then put away his thoughts and said nothing more.
The woman nodded to Ji Muyun and walked outside. When she passed by Mo Guyuan and the two of them, she turned her head and smiled and said, "Listen to what the young master said before, but tell me about this woman next to you." ?”
Mo Guyuan was confused. When he came to his senses, the woman had already walked away downwards.
Beside you, Yu Qingyun said leisurely, "Did you finally remember it?"
Mo Guyuan smiled gently and said, "Didn't you hear everything?"
Yu Qinggang pouted, turned around, and walked away with his hands behind his back.
Seeing this, Yu Nie rubbed her chin and wondered, "The woman read a long chapter earlier, what was she talking about?"
There was no answer around.
Yu Nie asked for trouble and asked Qiao Muyun, "Old man, that woman called you grandpa, is she your granddaughter?"
Shark Muyun smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right, she's also my princess, Shark Mingsu."
When several people heard this, they were all stunned. "Same Mingsu, isn't that the heroine who will be getting married tomorrow?" Everyone looked back and looked into the distance again. The light blue figure stood alone and ethereal on the white stone, with the breeze blowing slowly, like a dream.
"Everyone, it's getting late. Let's go to the palace early to rest. We'll come back tomorrow to visit the wedding ceremony of our princess." Shark Muyun said to several people.
Everyone nodded in agreement and followed Shark Muyun into the main hall.
The moment Mo Guyuan entered, he was stunned by the structure in the hall.
At this moment, Mo Guyuan stood at the door and looked around. There was only a narrow corridor in front of him. There was a staircase at the end of the corridor. There were many stairs, which should lead to the second floor.
On both sides of the corridor, there are stone walls made of blue bricks. The stone walls go upward and are capped all the way. In addition, on the stone wall, there is a window about every five meters, and straight down is a wooden door.
When viewed from the outside, the Qionghua Palace was majestic and tall. Everyone thought that entering the palace would reveal its grandeur, but they did not expect that the palace was so uniquely built.
Seeing a look of disbelief in the eyes of several people, Xiao Muyun said slightly, "When our clan entered the Qionghua Pond in the Sanzhong Sea Area, the Qionghua Pond was already an island world of its own, and our clan added another one on top of it. A layer of enchantment, after thousands of years of polishing and construction, the Qionghua Palace is now the Qionghua Pond of the past."
After hearing this, several people looked at the scene in front of them with disbelief in their eyes. Unexpectedly, the predecessor of this magnificent palace was actually the original body of Qionghua Pond.
This shark tribe is good at weaving, is it possible that they are also talented in construction?
"Elder Muyun, this Qionghua Pond has now become the Qionghua Palace. Could it be that the entire palace is Qionghua Island itself?" Mo Guyuan expressed his doubts.
Hearing this, Xiao Muyun's face changed slightly, and after a while, he sighed softly and said, "Master Beiming Kun is here now, so I have nothing to hide. Yes, this Qionghua Palace itself is An island is undoubtedly Qionghua Island.”
Although Mo Guyuan had made some guesses before, he was still a little moved after receiving the affirmation from Xiao Muyun. There was actually an island on Liuguang Island, an island on an island. This kind of miraculous craftsmanship was really admirable.
When they were wandering across the sea, Mo Guyuan and Ji Qing swam to Huludao in search of hairdoves. Later, they accidentally bumped into Huludao due to a blood yarn, and they discovered the secret of Huludao. Then they fell into the land of Huludao, forgetting their worries. island. Although the two have similar approaches but similar results, they also have major differences.
The Huludao itself is special. Not only does it resemble a gourd, but the mouth of the gourd is concave downwards, which can attract dust from hundreds of rivers. Wangyou Island was attracted by its gravity and was sucked into its belly.
As for Qionghua Island, according to what Same Muyun said before, their clan should have built Qionghua Island into a palace first, and then moved the island onto the streamer.
"I didn't expect you, the Shark Clan, to have such divine power. It's really amazing." Mo Guyuan said sincerely.
"Young hero, it's serious. Since our clan got this Qionghua Pond, we have been wary of danger in times of peace. We are deeply afraid of being discovered by someone with intentions, so as not to cause trouble. In order to be safe, our clan has spent countless efforts and hard work over thousands of years to build this place. This appearance is, firstly, to deceive others, and secondly, so that our clan can have a place to live." Xiao Muyun said slowly.
"Liuguang Island is so big, and you have moved Qionghua Island to the top. This kind of miraculous work is beyond the reach of ordinary people." Yu Nie said with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiao Muyun didn't say much, he just smiled. Bei Mingkun, who was at the end, looked at the strange structure in the hall and couldn't help but frown in thought.
As a few people chatted, they had already reached the end of the corridor. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, Mo Guyuan and his party saw that at the end of this corridor, there were still two corridors on the left and right.
The long corridors and paths on both sides extend all the way like entering the door, straight and narrow, deep and empty. The same stone wall is covered with piles and capped. The only difference is that there are a few lights on the high points of the stone wall, illuminating the corridor path in front, but there are no windows or wooden doors on this side of the stone wall.
Mo Guyuan looked back and forth, following the traces in the dim light. In the haze, it seemed that the end of the long corridor on the left was also an upward staircase, while at the end of the long corridor on the right, there seemed to be a staircase paved downwards. Because within sight to the right, only the horizon line of the corridor is visible, and no stairs are visible, we guessed that it was probably built facing downwards.
"Our clan has lived in Canghai for a long time, with a population of only a few thousand. Since the Qionghua Palace was built, something has gone beyond our original expectations. Therefore, although the area of this palace is large, it is of little use. Our clan has lived in groups since ancient times. However, since the main hall was a bit empty, it was surrounded by large rocks and divided into several storage rooms to store our people's textile products. This is the first floor of the main hall, and it is more convenient to move in and out of goods." Same Mu Mu. Yun was very patient, whether he answered Mo Guyuan's questions or saw a look of curiosity in their eyes, he always answered for them.
"Hey, if that's the case, does this Qionghua Palace have several floors?" Yu Nie looked around, but couldn't see anything, so she said to herself.
"Exactly, since the Qionghua Palace was built, it has been divided into six floors, three floors above and three floors below. The first floor above is where our Shark tribe lives and cultivates. You can visit it later when you go up. Second, it’s not much different from this floor, except that there are a few more separate rooms. After all, our clan also has differences between men and women.”
"The upper second floor is basically the same as the upper one. It is just used to entertain some distinguished guests to the island and have a resting place. After all, we have been doing business with the two worlds over the years, so some distinguished guests cannot be ignored."
"The upper three floors are not that complicated. There is an open-air platform on the top, which is similar to the square in front of the palace. Because it is located at a higher level, you can have a full view of the stream, so it is a place to enjoy the scenery." Same Muyun said to the others. explained.
A few people knew it and had a rough idea. They didn't expect that the Qionghua Palace had such a structure, which was simple yet somewhat unique.
"Why don't you all follow me upstairs first? I'll show you around and see if the wing you are staying in is satisfactory to you. If you have any other needs, I can send someone to prepare them for you while the sky is still dark. One or two." Qiao Muyun smiled.
"Earlier, Elder Muyun said that you should do as the Romans do. We have been traveling across the sea for several months and have already become accustomed to strong winds and waves. It is very rare to have a wing to live in now. There is really no need to bother with anything else. I hope Elder Muyun won't be too polite. " Mo Guyuan couldn't help feeling a little helpless and shy when he saw that Qiao Muyun was always polite to several people.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. It's been a long time since anyone from the outside world has visited the island in our Shark clan. It's rare to add a bit of dust and smoke. Besides, Lord Beiming Kun is here in person. They are all distinguished guests. We definitely can't treat him lightly. Young hero, please don't be strangers to me." Xiao Muyun's face remained gentle and he was smiling.
When Mo Guyuan saw this, he looked at the people behind him. They didn't care about anything else and just followed him up the stairs, swaggering as if they were at home.
Mo Guyuan was stunned for a moment, seeing a few people enjoying themselves, and for a moment he couldn't help but admire the shamelessness of these three people. After all, they were people who had seen the world, and they were safe when they came and went.
Yu Nie walked three steps and two steps abreast, walking a little fast. After a while, he stepped on the corner. Looking at the stairs in front of him, he quickly picked up the stairs as before.
Suddenly, halfway through, he leaned down and looked down. Seeing a few people still below, Yu Nie shouted down, "Hey, old man."
Ji Muyun raised his head, and the two looked at each other, one up and one down.
"What can you do, young hero?"
"You just talked about the upper three floors, but you haven't talked about the lower three floors yet."
