Chapter 35: The Heroic Ruler of Western Xia, Li Yuanhao

  When Jian Yu Mei saw the crystal clear ancient jade on the table, he was shocked in his heart. Could it be that last night really came a person from ancient times!

  Where did that person come from? Which dynasty is he from? He came from that distant ancient times, what does it mean! What does this jade represent?

  All these things made Jian Yu Mei very puzzled, although in his recent meditation, he had been experiencing some strange things, but this thing still made him somewhat unexplained.

  He took the jade and arrived at his master's door.

  "Is it Mei Er?" Master asked from inside.

  "Yes, Master!" Jian Yu Mei said.

  "Come on in, I had a feeling you'd come asking me something. I've been waiting for you!" the master said.

  "Alright, Master!" Jian Yu Mei was shocked!

  He walked in and saw that his master had already gotten out of bed. He was sitting on a chair in front of the table in the room.

  Jian Yu Mei walked over and handed the jade to his master.

  "Master, take a look at this jade pendant, where do you think it's from?" Jian Yu Mei said.

  The master took over the jade, and his face suddenly changed color.

  He carefully examined this jade, carefully looking at the words on it!

  The characters above are two seal characters, and the words engraved on them are "Zi Er", but the text behind is something that Xiang Yu does not understand.

  He had certainly seen such texts in some books before, and they seemed to be the script of a nation, but he couldn't confirm it. He hoped that his master's extensive knowledge would allow him to determine the origin of this text.

  The master carefully read these words, then looked at Xiang Yu Mei, he looked for a long time.

  "This is Xixia script!" Master said.

  "Western Xia! It's that dynasty which coexisted with the Song Dynasty for many years, and was finally destroyed by Genghis Khan!" said Jian Yu Mei.

  "Yes, this was once a powerful dynasty that established its own great achievements in the desert and had its own brilliant culture! However, after being brutally eliminated by Genghis Khan, very few of their relics were left behind! Due to their stubborn resistance, they dealt a huge blow to Genghis Khan. In the final battle of the siege of Western Xia, Genghis Khan was seriously ill and on the verge of death. At that time, the last emperor of Western Xia had already surrendered to the Mongol army. Before his death, Genghis Khan left a will, which ordered his subordinates to keep his death a secret, fearing that the last emperor of Western Xia would change his mind. After Genghis Khan's death, the emperor of Western Xia surrendered to the Mongol army. The Mongol army followed Genghis Khan's will and killed the emperor, then slaughtered the city, killing all the soldiers and civilians in the capital of Western Xia. All the relics of Western Xia civilization were destroyed, so Western Xia has always been a mystery in Chinese civilization!"

  The master finished speaking and sighed, "This jade is indeed a relic of the Western Xia dynasty, its age is undoubted, it's definitely genuine, and this jade is a rare item, the quality of the jade is top-notch! Where did you get it from?"

  "Last night, I was in a daze in my dream, and suddenly I saw someone standing in front of my bed. The person was dressed as an ancient general, his gaze was stern and lonely, and he kept staring at me. At that time, I was very frightened, but I was also very confused, so I fell asleep again in confusion. This morning, I found this thing on my desk! If it weren't for this thing, I would have doubted whether the person last night had come or not, and everything was just a dream!" said Jian Yu Mei.

  "Oh! Describe that person's appearance to me again!" Master said to Jian Yu Mei.

  Jian Yu Mei once again repeatedly described the appearance of that person to her master, while her master listened and looked at Jian Yu Mei with a strange gaze.

  When Jian Yu Mei finished describing the person's appearance to her master in detail, including what kind of helmet and armor he was wearing, what kind of decorations were on his body, and what shoes he was wearing, she carefully told her master everything.

  But Master Shifu kept staring at him, making Swordswoman Mei a bit hairy.

  "After a long time, Master said, 'Mei Er, is this person really you?'"

  "Ah!" Jian Yu Mei was shocked.

  "It's me, Master! How is this possible?!" No wonder Master looked at himself for so long!

  "Mei'er, this is you, what I see of you at this moment is exactly like this! Don't believe me? Take a look yourself!" Master said.

  "Where am I looking from, Master!" Xian Yu Mei said.

  The master then took out a mirror from his own room. Jian Yu saw that the mirror was an antique, with a classic fragrance and appearance, looking like another ancient artifact.

  The master handed the mirror to Jian Yu Mei's hand, and Jian Yu Mei took a look, it turned out to be a copper mirror.

  In front of it is a polished mirror surface.

  "Take a look, Mei!" Master said.

  When Jian Yu Mei picked up the copper mirror and faced it towards herself, at first she still looked like her current self. Suddenly, she saw that her appearance had changed. The person in the mirror was no longer her current self, but a general from ancient times. His eyes were so majestic yet so desolate. He stood there, looking at himself, just as he had the night before.

  Jian Yu Mei was shocked and looked at her master. Her master was still standing there, motionless, but his eyes were filled with concern for her.

  "Master!" Although Jian Yu Mei had recently experienced many strange things, she still found this event to be quite astonishing!

  He felt he could no longer accept such a fact, yet everything was so vivid and real.

  "Who is he?" Jian Yu Mei asked her master.

  "Look for yourself!" Master said.

  "But how can I see it!" said Jian Yu Mei.

  At this time, Shifu walked over, he stretched out his right hand, he made a sword with his fingers, and pointed the sword at the Tianmu acupoint on Sword Yu Mei's brow.

  "Close your eyes, concentrate your spirit and energy, and observe carefully. When you are observing, do not let your mind wander, or else you will be courting death!" the master said.

  "Alright, Master!" Jian Yu Mei closed her eyes.

  At this time, a white light flashed before his eyes! Slowly, the white light turned into colorful lights, which gradually gathered and began to form some images and scenes. At first, they were very blurry and unclear, but later, as Jian Yu Mei adjusted her breath and calmed her mind, the scenes became clearer and clearer.

  Jian Yu Mei saw some grand scenes of war, and in those scenes, there was that ancient general, who was himself!

  Jian Yu Mei saw that person commanding thousands of troops and horses, attacking cities in the desert, his gaze was firm, everything was so fiery.

  Then beside these scenes, a voice clearly told himself that the person's name was Li Yuanhao!

  After a long time, the screen disappeared, and the imaged screen fragmented and gradually went away. In front of me was still a piece of white light.

  Jian Yu Mei closed her eyes and cultivated her divine light.

  He didn't think of anything, yet it seemed like he was thinking of everything. When he opened his eyes, his master was staring at him.

  "I am really Li Yuanhao!" said Jian Yu Mei.
