My girlfriend is a Miao demon.

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 19:48

"Are you there?"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 19:50

"Of course, I've been waiting for you for six days."

"I even wondered if you really found the castle and the stone chamber. I was also thinking, if you really found the entrance to your dream world and got there, what form would the other you in the real world take? Last time, the you in the real world was unconscious, what about this time?"

"Or will you disappear completely like Gui Luyao and the others?"

"You know, I'm actually quite interested in these kinds of questions."

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 19:50

"Haha, that's a real shame. It seems we're both disappointed this time."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 19:50

"It seems the mission to guard Nanshan has ended in failure?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 19:51

"It can't be said that it was a complete failure. In my opinion, it should be called 'having obtained the true scriptures but not becoming a Buddha.' It's not perfect, but it's also perfect."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 19:51

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 19:52

Do you remember the tombstone I mentioned to you?

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 19:52

"Of course, does that tombstone still exist? Did you find it?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 19:52

Yes, it exists.

"The tombstone is broken; in fact, I only saw the lower half of it last time."

"This time I not only found it, but I also found its lower half."

向南风在将这段文字发送出去后，随即发送了8张图片，它们分别是1张山上石碑的全景照、1张山上石碑的近景照、2张山上石碑风化碑文的局部特写照、1张山上石碑所在地的周边环境照、1张碎石滩石碑的全景照、1张碎石滩石碑的近景照和1张碎石滩石碑所在地的周边环境照。

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 19:54

"I'm going to find an expert to study what the inscription on the stone tablet on the mountain says and whether it is a tombstone or not."

"Furthermore, if necessary, we'll probably have to figure out how to turn that half of the stone tablet over on the gravel beach. It's upside down right now, and we'll only know what the inscription on the first half says when we turn it over."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 19:55

"Is this stone tablet related to Gui Luyao's disappearance?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 19:59

To be honest, I don't know.

"To be honest, I feel like it's okay, but I always feel like its appearance is too strange."

You may not be very familiar with the city of Wangshan. How many years of history does it have?

20 years?

30 years?

"This stone tablet must be at least 300 years old. Why would such a stone tablet appear in a deep mountain like Shounan Mountain? I think this is too strange. It's impossible not to suspect that it is related to mysterious events."

"But if you're going to say it's related, Loubei No. 93, the open space, and the castle don't exist in the real world. If it's related to the dream world, why is it still kept in the real world? So I don't understand it either."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 19:59

"Neither open ground nor castle exists?"

"There isn't even that open space?"

"Isn't there any open space down the mountain?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:02

"Yes, I was shocked too."

"I smelled sheep dung for three days before I finally found the mountain, but I didn't expect that there was no open space at the foot of the mountain, but a pool of water."

"This pool is very strange. It is very deep and the water is very clear. I have studied it for a long time but I still can't figure out where its water source comes from."

"You may not know this, but I am a liberal arts student and I got a perfect score in geography on the college entrance exam."

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:03

"I kept thinking about it on my way back."

"I think there are two possibilities. One possibility is that there is no open space or ancient castle in the mountains in the real world, just like there is no Loubei No. 93 in Loujia Village."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:03

"What about the other possibility?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:04

"Another possibility seems rather absurd: that the open ground and the castle still exist in the real world, right beneath the pool!"

"Similarly, No. 93 Loubei is also there; it's inside the wall."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:05

"So you want to?"

"diving?"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:05

"Hey, that's great! I can go with you. I have an AOW certification!"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:06

"Diving? This...this is making quite a stir for now! But by the way, what is an AOW certification?"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:07

"AOW is an abbreviation for Advanced Open Water. I am a registered member of the International Cave Diving Association."

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:07

"Cave diving! Oh my god, I've heard of that. It's one of the most dangerous sports in the world. That's so cool!"

"I'm becoming increasingly curious about what kind of person you are!"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:08

Haha. I believe we will meet again in the near future.

"Now I'm more interested in knowing what you're thinking. If you're not going to use diving, how do you plan to investigate?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:10

"Actually, I have two directions now, one is Loubei No. 93, and the other is the ancient castle in Shounan Mountain. I already have some ideas for both directions, but I plan to investigate Loujia Village first. I want to find out what's inside that walled city of Loujia Village first. I think that will be easier than diving into Shounan Mountain."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:10

"Oh? How do you plan to investigate? Climb in with a ladder?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:11

"I'm afraid that won't work. If we can't find anyone or a really good reason, it would be too conspicuous for an individual to just go and set up the ladder; that definitely won't work. That's what I'm thinking. Do you know what a drone is?"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:11

"Drone? What's that?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:13

"A new technological product is an electric remote-controlled airplane. It can be equipped with weapons to fight wars, pesticides to kill insects, and water guns to put out fires... In short, this thing is the new trend of the future."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:13

"So, what about the siege of Loujia Village?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:17

"That's right, there are now drones with cameras installed on their undersides that can take aerial photos."

"In the past, aerial photography involved photographers carrying cameras while sitting on airplanes, which was expensive and also made it impossible to shoot at extremely low altitudes. Now, we can use these drones, which are very lightweight. I heard that our Wangshantai imported one last year, and it's now in the digital technology department."

"I have a buddy in this department. I'll think of a way to borrow this machine and do some low-altitude filming to see what's in there."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:18

"Good, that's a good idea! I think the situation inside this besieged city is likely the same as that open area and the castle; if it has the same features, then it has them, and if it doesn't, then it doesn't."

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:19

"Well, let's see how it goes first. If we really need someone to climb in, we'll figure out a better way then. Also, there's something else, also about Loujia Village. I've discovered something strange. I don't know if it's related to Luyao's disappearance or my dream world, but I want to figure it out first."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:20

"What's wrong?"

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:21

"I was able to find that half of the stone tablet because I found an old man named Zheng who was herding sheep on Nanshan Mountain. It was this old man Zheng who led me to the half of the stone tablet on the gravel beach. Then I followed the stream upstream and found the other half."

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:22

"This old man Zheng is a son-in-law who married into the family in Loujia Village. The day before yesterday, when he was helping me find the stone tablet, we chatted all day along the way. He told me that the main family in Loujia Village is surnamed Jia, and the whole village is from this Jia family. I find it very strange, why would a village with the surname Jia be called Loujia Village?"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:23

"Wow! This is really strange! We should investigate and rule it out."

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:24

"Yes. This is easy to investigate. I'll just ask around next time I go."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:25

"Okay. What you said is all good, you can check it out as you wish. But I want to remind you of one thing."

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:27

"You haven't been online these past few days, and I've been thinking about your story. I've gone through all of these things from beginning to end. You know, when we look at the development of an event, there is always a cause and a result. When we look at a person's trajectory, there is always a path they came from and a path they are going to."

Nomads Go on a Party 2012.01.07 20:27

"Okay, so what?"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:28

"Ever since Gui Luyao disappeared, you've been searching for answers. What answers are you looking for?"

Where did Gui Luyao go? Who is Gui Luyao?

"I think about it the same way. I really want to know where the entrance to your dream world is, and whether you can go back to your dream world. But, is it possible to think about this question in another way? Have you ever thought about why you came here, who you are, and who you are, Xiang Nanfeng?"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:31

"You know that your meeting with Gui Luyao wasn't just a fleeting romance at Lin Shu's funeral. Gui Luyao came specifically to find you and take you back. This means you weren't originally from the real world we live in; you originally came from your dream world. Right?"

Mao Xigu Master 2012.01.07 20:34

So, it still comes down to this: Who are you, and who is the south wind to you?

Have you ever thought about why you came here, and how you came to this real world?

"Perhaps if we figure out this problem, we can find out where the entrance to your real world is, and then Gui Luyao's mystery will be solved."

"Perhaps that entrance is the exit, and the exit is the entrance. You can go back the same way you came."

Who are you? Who exactly are you?

Mao Xigu Master's words were like a searchlight suddenly turned on in a pitch-black room. He did illuminate all the darkness, but he also blinded everyone with another kind of "darkness," making them unable to see anything, even though this "darkness" was called light. This reminded Xiang Nanfeng of an insignificant incident that occurred two months ago during a date between the two of them when Lu Yao was around.
