Barrier of Light

"What's your name?"

Gu Shen was startled.

Master Qianye did not answer this question directly, but instead said: "First of all... I can't leave the inner tomb. And the formation patterns in the outer cemetery of Qingzhong always need someone to repair them."

And that person is obviously...

"I."

Gu Shen was a little helpless, this was something he had already guessed.

Who else but him.

Master Qianye smiled slightly.

"Since you want to repair the formation patterns, you will inevitably have to learn the ancient texts on those drawings." Master Qianye said softly: "And there is only one person who can guide you..."

"you."

Gu Shen understood something.

Yes.

The formation drawings in Qingzhong are all obscure [ancient texts]. These texts are also the secrets that Gu Shen has always wanted to pursue.

obviously.

Tsukauki is an unreliable person.

This guy relies solely on talent and intuition... It's already a miracle that he can understand the blueprints, but judging from the fact that he established the Qingzuka Formation, it's not reliable to ask him for advice.

Compared to before, Master Qianye, who was actually in charge of the Qingzhong Formation, was the "man of knowledge".

The last time they met, she didn't tell herself why she could understand the drawings.

But... these are not important.

As long as you can learn ancient Chinese from behind the tomb keeper, that's enough!

These ancient texts are directly and closely related to Mr. Turing and the Ancient Literature Society.

"You want to guide me in learning ancient Chinese?"

Gu Shen's eyes lit up.

"...It is to study the Qingzuka formation drawings." Master Qianye shook his head and corrected: "The two characters "ancient characters" are too big. Everyone wants to know the secrets contained in these characters, but even Alan Turing , and only have a partial understanding of them. The reason why I understand these Qing Tomb drawings is partly because I have been together for too long, and partly because of the exploration effect brought by divination. If I just teach the ancient text content on the drawings, there will be no problem. "

"Since you study with me...then you are my student and disciple."

Qianye said slowly: "This is the name I want to give you. I will announce to the public... that you will study with me in Qingzhong. As for what you are studying, you should know how to say it."

That's it.

Gu Shen understood it at first glance. It was indeed a very good "name". He learned divination from the tombkeepers, so he frequently entered the cemetery. It was very reasonable and... very useful.

no doubt.

This name is enough to make anyone a "famous person" in Nagano.

Everyone is eager to "divide", but they have never been able to contact the tomb keeper. Now they can contact the students of the tomb keeper.

"It's just that you're going to get yourself into a lot of trouble."

Master Qianye said slowly: "Are you willing to have this name?"

Gu Shen fell into thinking.

He did not agree directly, but asked slowly: "Master Qianye, regarding the price of divination... do those people outside know?"

"No one knows my true appearance except Gu Changzhi."

The tombkeeper gave a sideways answer, "In all these years... you are the first person to see the skin under my black robe."

Gu Shen breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't agree directly because he was worried that...the cost of practicing divination would be so obvious.

If he admits his identity as a disciple of the Tomb Keeper.

So if one day he is questioned, the matter of cutting meat... I will definitely not be able to do it.

"How?" the tomb guard asked with a smile.

"I want to learn ancient Chinese from you... But I also have an idea about entering the tomb." Gu Shen said slowly: "What do you think..."

Master Qianye, who was hanging upside down on the tree, listened quietly.

Her brows slowly raised.

After listening, she was silent for a long time and asked: "Are you sure... you want this?"

"Since Master, you don't care about having another disciple practicing divination behind you..."

Gu Shen smiled and said, "Then why is this not feasible?"

…

…

Qingzuka's array pattern repair was not as complicated as imagined.

The guardian of the tomb took out the "drawings" for the original construction of the tomb. These "drawings" were imprinted in the spiritual world. One by one, there were thousands of drawings suspended in front of Gu Shen.

At first glance, it’s dazzling.

If you look carefully... you will feel even more dizzy.

Each drawing is engraved with obscure [ancient texts]. These ancient texts seem to be different from those of the Red Gate. When Gu Shen read them, he did not directly have a mental reaction.

"According to the Federation's exploration... the [ancient texts] currently known in the five continents are roughly divided into two major types."

"One type is regular writing, which actively emits mental fluctuations. As long as you read it, you will have an extraordinary connection with the writing... Such writing is considered to be the 'rules' written in plain text."

The guardian of the tomb said: "The other type is functional writing. Extraordinary sensing is very restrained, and it requires careful perception and experience to understand the meaning of the writing...these writings on the Qing Tomb drawings belong to the latter."

Gu Shen nodded silently.

From this point of view, the ancient text on [Red Gate] is the former.

The two are like ice and fire.

The ancient texts on the Guyu Scroll should also be functional texts that require manual dismantling, reading, and understanding...

"But all ancient texts have one characteristic. That is, they can only be understood, not expressed."

Master Qianye said seriously: "It can't be described in words, and it can't be conveyed in sound... We are not even sure whether humans really have the ability to pronounce them."

"And because of these qualities, if you want to learn ancient prose, you need to...contemplate it."

She said meaningfully: "You should be familiar with it."

The wilderness of four seasons is the result of visualization!

The reason why Jingzhe and Guyu couldn't be taken away... was because of the characteristics of ancient writing.

The ancient texts on the original scroll cannot be printed at all, unless a spiritual genius like Luo Er can memorize and reproduce the entire dream.

"Next, I will first pass on to you... the visualization of the first formation. This formation is located in the center of the Qing Tomb. It is the seventh formation eye of the Colossus ruins. It is also the first formation we want to repair."

Master Qianye cited it casually.

Dozens of ancient drawings floated in the wind, neatly arrayed in front of Gu Shen. The ancient writings engraved on these drawings emitted waves of radiance under the guidance of Master Qianye's spiritual power.

Gu Shen sat cross-legged, with grass blades flying around him.

He looked at these drawings silently, with a blazing fire lingering between his brows.

"This process... takes some time, it may take a long time. You have to calm down and understand it."

The tombkeeper said softly: "After you complete your enlightenment...if you have any questions, I will answer them for you."

"……good."

Gu Shen nodded seriously.

The next moment, the glow from the drawing overwhelmed him.

He closed his eyes.

Master Qianye, who was hanging upside down on the tree, also closed his eyes.

It should take an hour to understand this drawing, right?

The sky above the wilderness was stormy.

The tomb keeper was preparing to take a nap to recuperate her energy. This was how she had spent the days guarding the tomb over the years.

But less than three minutes.

A voice slowly sounded.

"Master...I have understood it."
