"Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches?"
When Jiang Yunqing heard the words "Zhaoyang" and "Dayuanxian", he immediately thought of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
The trunk is like the stem of a tree, which is yang when it is strong; the branches are like the branches of a tree, which is yin when it is weak. In the past, Pangu's way of heaven and earth reached Yin and Yang and became the three talents. After the first emperor divided the heaven and the earth, there was heaven first and then the earth. From this gas, people were born. Therefore, there were thirteen people with the same surname of the emperor, who succeeded the Pangu family to rule. This is called the sky's tranquility, doing nothing and becoming common. The names of the stems and branches were first formulated to determine the age of the year.
The ten stems are called Yanfeng, Zhanmeng, Rouzhao, Qiangyu, Zhuyong, Tuwei, Shangzhang, Chongguang, Xuanxuan and Zhaoyang.
The twelve branches are: Kundun, Chifenruo, Shetige, Shanlan, Zhixu, Dahuangluo, Dunzang, Xiexia, Hutan, Zuowei, Yimao, Dayuanxian.
"No wonder this place is called the Valley of the Year!"
Without waiting for the Twelve Cave Master to reply, Jiang Yunqing mumbled to himself.
"Pangu Wang Biao" and "Three Ming Tonghui" records: "The emperor began to make the names of the stems and branches to determine the location of the year."
"Yes, that's why this place is called the Valley of the Year!"
The Master of the Twelve Cave nodded, seeming to have a good impression of Jiang Yunqing's erudition!
"Is it really just a matter of pushing the door open?"
Suddenly, Jiang Yunqing's voice sounded from behind the Twelve Cave Master.
The master of Twelve Cave was stunned, and suddenly found that Jiang Yunqing in front of him had disappeared. He quickly turned his head and looked behind him, only to see Jiang Yunqing's hands already supporting the wooden door.
"When did you..."
The master of Eleventh Cave was a little shocked. He didn't even notice that Jiang Yunqing had crossed such a long distance.
Jiang Yunqing looked at the dense symbols carved on the wooden door, then closed his eyes and looked back at his memory of running along the path. The symbols on the stone path were actually the same as the symbols on the wooden door.
Gently touching the symbols on the wooden door, Jiang Yunqing felt a touch of intimacy.
I just don’t know if it’s because of these symbols, or because of this wooden door, or maybe both.
"I can feel that your body is still affected by the suction force in the valley. The reason why you are so calm is just because you have adapted to it. But it can also be concluded from this that you are not the masters of this place. At most, you are the masters of this place. A guard dog!”
Jiang Yunqing paused, feeling that his words seemed to be a curse, and felt that he needed to explain.
"Oh, you don't have to be angry. I'm not scolding you. This is just a description. After all, you still have a dog leash on your body!"
But after explaining this, Jiang Yunqing felt that he was not only cursing, but also provoking.
"Um..., I was a little bit tongue-tied today, just think I didn't say anything just now!"
"······"
The Master of Twelve Cave looked at Jiang Yunqing with a dark look. He wanted to say something, if you can't speak, don't speak.
However, after thinking about it carefully, I felt that Jiang Yunqing's words made sense. Although the words were a bit unpleasant, the relationship described was indeed very similar to their current relationship with Shii Gu.
Jiang Yunqing used some strength in her hands and pushed the wooden door hard, and found that the wooden door showed no signs of being opened.
"This door cannot be opened with brute force, it requires a key!"
The Master of the Twelve Cave watched Jiang Yunqing push the door open with great interest, without saying a word to remind him. He waited for Jiang Yunqing to give it a try before explaining aloud.
"The key is with you!"
Jiang Yunqing turned around and looked at the Twelve Cave Master with a smile.
The Lord of Twelve Cave nodded: "Well, it is indeed on me!"
"So, I need to defeat you to get the key to open the door?"
Jiang Yunqing turned around completely, twisted his neck, and rubbed his wrists. Thinking about it, he hadn't moved his muscles in a real sense for a long time. Since the last time he received Yuan Tiangang's seven-successful palm in the Zangbing Cave, He only warmed up a little during the discussion with the Ghost King Zhu Youwen.
Moreover, this kind of common level-breaking mission in previous lives, animations or games is somewhat nostalgic when seeing it again after so many years.
So he planned to complete this task properly and satisfy his nostalgia.
But unexpectedly, seeing Jiang Yunqing's actions, the master of Twelve Cave shouted quickly: "Please wait a moment and listen to me first!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yunqing stopped and looked at the Master of the Twelve Cave Cave in confusion.
"What? You're not ready yet? Hey! It's okay, I can wait too."
"no no······"
Before he could finish his words, Jiang Yunqing misunderstood him, and the Twelve Cave Master quickly denied it.
"What's the reason?" Jiang Yunqing asked.
The Master of Twelve Cave did not answer Jiang Yunqing's question, but looked at Jiang Yunqing resentfully: "Can you listen to what I have to say?"
"Uh...you say it!"
In order to satisfy his nostalgia, Jiang Yunqing felt that he was indeed a little impetuous.
Of course, this was also because he was eager to know what the relationship between Shi Shigu and the Sifang Ding in his chest was.
He had an intuition that as long as he pushed open the door behind him, he could clear part of the truth.
"Ahem!"
After being interrupted so many times by Jiang Yunqing, the Master of Twelve Cave cleared his throat, organized his words, and then said: "We are waiting for you here not to stop you, but to keep the key here for you. Just now You were the first to attack me, and I just used the power of the 'key' a little bit!"
"???????"
A series of questions flashed through Jiang Yunqing's mind, "Then what did you say when we entered the valley?"
"Just to let you in!" the Twelve Cave Master replied.
"You shouldn't tell me this, right?"
Jiang Yunqing felt the contradiction in the words of the Twelve Cave Master and frowned slightly.
"Well, this is the answer that Zongtong wants to reveal for you!"
The Lord of Twelve Cave nodded again, feeling that it was very easy to talk to a smart man. He just hoped that this smart man would not have violent tendencies.
"Then why are you telling me this?" Jiang Yunqing asked again.
The Master of the Twelve Cave pointed to his legs sitting cross-legged on the futon, and shook his head helplessly: "The injury three months ago has not healed well. In the valley of the year, although I can mobilize the 'key' part Power, but your strength is extraordinary, and the power of the 'key' is far from comparable to yours. I'm afraid that you won't be able to hold on to it, and will lie on the bed again. I've had enough of lying on the bed in the past three months. , I don’t want to lie down anymore!”
"Okay! It's true that I was impulsive, but you can't blame me. Who asked you to act like this, it brought back my long-lasting memories!"
Jiang Yunqing shrugged, and while admitting his mistake, he also defended himself a little.
"How dare I!"
The Master of Twelve Cave underestimated it, and then he put two fingers together and scratched his other palm. The skin was indeed cut open, but strangely, no blood flowed out.
Just after a while, something seemed to be moving under the skin of his wrist. Judging from the trajectory, it should have climbed down from his arm.
