Translator: 549690339

While Xia Pingan was talking to the old man, the walls in the hall started to spin like gears. The mountains, rivers, suns, moons, stars, and all kinds of sculptures on the walls started to move again. They were like codes and began to arrange themselves in various ways. The movements and arrangements of those sculptures seemed to have no pattern in the eyes of others, but in Xia Pingan’s eyes, However, he saw that the changes and trajectories of the sculptures were the sixty-four hexagrams surrounding Shao Kangjie’s Innate Eight Trigrams Diagram.

After the 64 hexagrams were displayed on the wall, the entire wall was divided into 64 sections evenly with a loud boom. Each section had a hexagram. Each hexagram shot out a golden light and shone on the altar in the middle. The outermost layer of light curtain that was originally covered by layers of light curtain began to bloom like the petals of a lotus flower. The space inside the airtight light curtain began to open like a flower bud. Different changes appeared.

“It’s opened. The light screen of the altar has indeed opened…” At the sight of this scene, the old man who was trapped in the first light curtain was so excited that his eyes were brimming with tears. He raised his hands and shouted towards the sky. For him, this was equivalent to regaining freedom after being imprisoned here for tens of thousands of years. He was so excited that he couldn’t describe it,” Hahahaha, it’s all thanks to you that I got out of here this time. I’m a man of my word. This is the summoning flute of that divine pegasus. I’ll give it to you. After you leave here, you only need to blow this flute.” The divine power pegasus will come over to meet you and recognize you as its master!”,As he spoke, the old man pointed at Xia Pingan and a green light flew towards Xia Pingan. Xia Pingan grabbed it and the green light turned into a green flute.

After giving the flute to Xia Pingan, the old man bowed to Xia Pingan. In the next second, a ray of light from the altar shone on the old man’s body. The old man’s figure instantly disappeared and he was teleported out of this place.

Now, only Xia Ping ‘an and Mi Luo were left in the hall, as well as the door that had revealed the first layer of light that led to the altar.

“Now, there are only the two of us in this hall!”Mi Luo said softly.

“Yeah, we’re the only ones left now. We can easily break through the later stages. 1 can see that this altar has many mysteries. The light screen gives me the feeling that it’s a bit like a cocoon of light from a Realm Pearl. The aura behind the light screen is also different from this palace.”Xia Ping ‘an stared at the altar that was undergoing changes, and he was still deducing in his heart. The altar had eight levels, and it could correspond to the sixty-four hexagrams of the Innate Eight Trigrams that Shao Kangjie had deduced. This should be one of the changes of the altar, but if that was the case, the altar would be too simple, and there was no need to divide it into eight levels. Therefore, if one wanted to walk to the top of the altar, there would probably be other tests behind the light screen that would allow one to obtain the true treasure that could push divination to the peak.

“You could have stayed behind alone just now. Why did you tell me the secret to cracking the wall? There was only one treasure chest! Actually, only one person was enough to stay. Two people were redundant!”Mi Luo’s voice was exceptionally gentle. She didn’t look at the altar, only at Xia Ping ‘an. She took two steps towards Xia Ping’ an, her gaze like the ripples of the spring breeze, filled with love and tenderness.

“All…” The moment 1 heard this, I felt like 1 was a little close to him. 1 felt like 1 was a If they could stay, they would naturally stay together!”

Mi Luo looked deeply at Xia Pingan and smiled.” Is that so? I know what you mean. The door to the altar has been opened, and I feel that there might be more changes to the door. It won’t stay open forever. Hurry up and go in!” “Alright, I’ll go in and take a look first!” Xia Pingan didn’t think much, just nodded, walked to the screen, stepped into the screen, and disappeared.

Mi Luo didn’t follow Xia Pingan into the light screen immediately. Instead, she watched as Xia Pingan stood outside the light screen. A gentle smile appeared on her face as she muttered to herself,” I know your feelings. Do you know mine?” I believe that even without me, you know very well how to get through the later stages to obtain the treasures here. This place belongs to you, and the treasures here are also yours. No one can snatch them away! Only lovers are rare in this world. Sigh…”

Mi Luo didn’t enter the altar. She just watched quietly outside the altar, waiting until the door of the altar closed. Then, a light shone on her body and teleported her away. Mi Luo actually gave up the chance to enter the altar.

On the other side, Xia Pingan, who had entered the light screen, felt as if he had entered the state of fusing with the Realm Pearl again. The moment his body passed through the light screen, he realized that he had already become a fisherman. He was wearing a cotton shirt and a straw hat. He was leisurely fishing by a slowly flowing river. In the distance of the river, a mountain range could be vaguely seen.

As a qualified scholar who studied the history of China, Xia Pingan’s foundation in historical geography was unusually deep. Therefore, after carefully identifying the shape and direction of the mountain range in the distance and combining it with the direction of the river in front of him, he immediately knew where he was. The mountain in the distance was Xiong Er Mountain, located in the eastern part of the Qinling Mountains. It was the boundary between the Yangtze River basin and the Yellow River basin. The river in front of him should be Yi Water.

Bear Ear Mountain, Yi Water, Fishing Man, Dun Dun Xia Pingan was linking these elements together in his mind and thinking about the meaning of the scene in front of him. A woodcutter carrying firewood had already walked over from the mountain path beside him. He happened to come to the Dun River and saw a few large bluestone here. The terrain was flat and cool, so he placed the firewood on the bluestone and sat down to rest. He looked at Xia Pingan who was fishing and took the initiative to talk.”Can you hook the fish?”

The moment the woodcutter opened his mouth, Xia Pingan’s heart trembled slightly. He already understood what this scene was. This was the scene of Shao Kangjie’s famous ” Fisherman and Woodcutter’s Questions “. This ” Fisherman and Woodcutter’s Questions ” used the way the woodcutter asked and the fisherman answered to attribute heaven and earth, all things, human affairs, and society to the Yi theory and explain it. It could be said to be a wonderful ancient text in ancient China that explored the Yi theory and the ultimate philosophy of mankind. It had a huge and far-reaching impact on future generations.

And this [Duel between the Fisherman and the Woodcutter] was also one of the many treasures that Shao Kangjie had left behind for the later generations.

After various things related to ” Fisherman and Woodcutter Asking Each Other ” flashed through his mind like lightning, Xia Pingan immediately answered the woodcutter’s question,” Yes!”

The woodcutter asked again,” Is the hook not bait?”

“No!” Xia Pingan replied.

The woodcutter continued to ask, the meaning of the word is not a hook, but a bait. Fish are good at eating and are harmed, and people are good at fish and are benefited. The benefits are the same, but the harm is different. May 1 ask why?”

Xia Ping ‘an pondered for a moment before replying,” Zi Woodcutter is also a person who rules differently from me. How can he interfere with my affairs? But you can also try to explain it to me. Their interests are like these interests, and their harm is like these harm. You know how small it is, but you don’t know how big it is. Fish are good at eating, 1 am also good at eating; Fish are harmful to food, and I am also harmful to food…”

As the woodcutter continued to ask questions and Xia Ping ‘an continued to answer, he spoke with confidence and assurance. In less than half an hour, he had completed the entire ” Fisherman and Woodcutter Questions “.

“I have heard of the ancient Fuxi, and today I can see his face.”The woodcutter said one last thing to Xia Pingan before bowing and leaving with his load.

The world in front of him shattered. Xia Pingan was in a daze, and he had already appeared on the altar on the first level. He had entered the light screen on the first level. The old man from before was trapped here.

Where’s Mi Luo?

Xia Pingan looked around.. There was no one else on the first level of the altar except for him!
