Chapter 83: Meeting Qilin Deep in the Underground Palace

“Xinzhan, please explain to us what you found out. We may have heard about it, but we don’t know anything about it.”

Feng Jihu said.

Cheng Xinzhan nodded and told the whole story of why he came here, and then said, "Now we have to go to the source and see what went wrong, and whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster."< br>
Everyone found a stone to sit down, and Ji Hu said again, "Jian Mo, tell us about Zhongdu."

Zhu Jianmo nodded, cleared his throat, and said,

"Zhongdu was built after Emperor Taizu conquered the world and took over Jinling. The scale was based on the imperial capital. What he was talking about at that time was the construction of Jinling. After that, he moved his capital to Fengyang. At that time, many civil servants, military generals, and nobles of the clan were puzzled, and they all advised them. If you want to stabilize the south, make Jinling the capital. If you want to guard the north, make Yanzhao the capital. There is no need to focus on Fengyang, Qingzhou. However, Taizu did not listen to the advice and ordered the Prime Minister to supervise the production.

“At that time, Zhongdu had 5,000 acres of land and millions of residents. Six years after the construction started, all the foundations were completed and the city walls were erected. Taizu personally went to Zhongdu to inspect the merits and reward the hard work. After returning to Jinling, he ordered the work to be stopped on the same day on the grounds of labor costs. Everyone was puzzled. In the end, the construction of Zhongdu was not continued during the Hongwu Dynasty.

"Later, Lord Yongle moved the capital to Yanzhao, which is a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from Fengyang, and it was even more impossible to move the capital to Fengyang. However, Lord Yongle didn't want to just waste millions of people, use countless materials, and countless efforts and spend six years to build it. After the city was built, it could be used to guard the imperial tombs.

"After hundreds of years, the city of Zhongdu expanded again and again, including the imperial mausoleums. However, the later emperors, empresses, and clans were all buried in Jinling and Yanzhao, so they were left alone, and it became what we are now. That’s what it looks like.”

Zhu Jianmo finished.

Everyone frowned, really confused.

"The capital city has millions of people. It will be built when it is said to be built, and it will not be built if it is not built. It does not sound like the legendary Ming Taizu who loved the people like his own son."

Wang Miaoyuan said .

"What kind of mountain is that?"

Xu Jishen asked, pointing to a mountain behind the city.

“Long Live Mountain is also called Longshan Mountain.”

Zhu Jianmo said.

“Where is that one?”

"Phoenix Mountain is also called Fengshan."

"Dragon and phoenix guard, Ziwei star position, it is indeed the palace of the emperor!"

Xu Jishen sighed.

Cheng Xin looked at the city from a distance, but couldn't see a reason for it, so she asked Zhu Jianmo,

"Do you have the original construction drawings of Zhongdu and the Imperial Tomb?"< br>


"Yes."

Zhu Jianmo responded and took out a drawing, which was exactly the original planning drawing.

He took the drawing and faced the capital. He looked at the capital for a while and then at the drawing, his brows getting tighter and tighter.

Everyone seemed to be aware of him and did not dare to disturb him.

After half an hour, Cheng Xinzhan put the drawing on the ground, and everyone gathered around him.

He took out the talisman pen with the remaining red ink and began to circle the drawings.

"This is the imperial mausoleum, and it is also the head."

He circled the imperial mausoleum.

“This is Fenghuang Tsui, which is seen as the neck connecting the imperial mausoleum. The Bell Tower and Drum Tower are two protruding forelimbs. These are Fenghuang Mountain and Longevity Mountain. They are two lying hind limbs. This is Jinshui. The river is a streamer of auspicious clouds, and this is the outline of the capital's foundation and its body. Look, what do these look like together? "

He sketched a shape with a red pen on the paper.

"White tiger? Or Qilin?"

Xu Jishen asked.

Cheng Xinzhan replied, "The white tiger rides on the wind, and the unicorn rides on the auspicious clouds. This is the unicorn, and the imperial mausoleum as the unicorn is square and located in the west. The emperor's sound is yellow and belongs to gold. This is a The formation of "Kirin Swallowing Gold"! "

He murmured to himself, "'Qilin Watching the Moon' points out the way, and the ground line ends at 'Qilin Swallowing Gold'. Is there really a Qilin buried underground? "

After thinking about it, he asked again, "What is the good fortune of the Ming Dynasty? ”

Zhu Jianmo replied: "The former Yuan Dynasty was a virtue of gold. The Ming Dynasty destroyed the Yuan Dynasty and inherited the virtue of fire."

"That's it."

Cheng Xinzhan nodded, like this "Qilin "Swallowing Gold" seems to make sense a little bit, but there is still something wrong. Qilin swallowed up the gold virtues of the former Yuan Dynasty and gathered them here. It is not only the lingering charm of the former country, but also the murderous spirit. It is not suitable for people to live in. How can they build a capital?

Is it possible that such a big posture is just to start a battle? Stopped after forming?

It’s still wrong. Later, Emperor Yongle changed the capital city to Fucheng, and there were so many mortals living there. It stands to reason that these people were suppressed by the Jin evil spirit and could not have continued to multiply for hundreds of years. The city continued to expand and expand. .

And with the imperial mausoleum as the entrance to swallowing gold, wasn't Ming Taizu afraid that his ancestors would not be able to sleep peacefully?

Cheng Xinzhan seemed to have some thoughts, pointed to the imperial mausoleum and asked Yuanyuan, "Before Ming Taizu became emperor, were the tombs of his ancestors always here?"

Zhu Jianmo Yao Shaking his head, he said, "It wasn't here at first. When Taizu returned home in glory when he became a general, he moved the tombs of his parents, brothers and sisters-in-law here, and then expanded them many times.

Cheng Xinzhan's eyes lit up and he asked, “Weren’t the imperial mausoleum and the capital built at the same time? "

Zhu Jianmo replied, "Of course, at that time, Grandpa Taizu rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty, and when there was a little bit of weather, he began to repair the Qin Chang's mausoleum. There were three expansions before he ascended the throne, and more expansions after he ascended the throne. In the second year of Hongwu, the imperial mausoleum had been basically finalized, and the construction of Zhongdu began. ”

After Cheng Xinzhan heard this, he looked at the map again. It seemed that he had realized something clearly and said that it was so.

After hearing this, everyone asked what they had discovered.

Cheng Xinzhan said, "If you look at the imperial mausoleum and the capital separately, the formation will be different.

"The overall look is like a "unicorn swallowing gold", attracting the world. The golden energy gathered in the imperial mausoleum.

“But if you don’t look at the imperial mausoleum and only look at the capital, you still have the Bell Tower, Drum Tower and Phoenix Mountain Long Live Mountain as the limbs. But if you look at the Phoenix Tsui facing the imperial mausoleum, you don’t look at the unicorn neck, but a unicorn neck. Open your mouth, and the capital will no longer be a unicorn, but a pot-bellied fire pig!

"In this way, the imperial mausoleum absorbs the golden energy and becomes a golden bead, but this golden bead is continuously absorbed by the big-bellied fire pig, strengthening the capital and Zhu Ming's dragon veins. I dare to conclude that the imperial mausoleum is a golden bead. The person buried inside is definitely not an ancestor of the Zhu family."

Everyone nodded, but only Xu Jishen and Sun Miaoshu showed expressions of thought, surprise and approval, while the others had only expressions of approval.

"Then it stands to reason that the Dragon Veins of the Capital City absorbs the nature of gold from the old Yuan Dynasty and uses fire to overcome gold. It should be prosperous. How can it breed Yin things?"

Xu Ji asked deeply.

Cheng Xinzhan listened to the words and followed the Tao,

"I'm not sure about this yet. It may be that something went wrong in the dragon vein of the capital itself, or it may be that something happened under the imperial mausoleum, which was swallowed up by the fire pig.

"Let's wait until sunset. , the gloomy atmosphere gradually rises at sunset, and the afterglow of the sun turns into golden light and sweeps across the earth, you should be able to see some clues. ”

Everyone didn’t have any objections and just waited where they were.

Fortunately, the sky was beautiful and there were no clouds in the sky. At sunset, the golden light swayed from the west, reflecting half of the sky brightly.< br>
Cheng Xinzhan saw clearly with the Qi-gazing method that there was no trace of golden energy in the imperial mausoleum to interact with the sunlight. Instead, there was a yin energy rising from the imperial mausoleum and being absorbed by the capital.
< br>

"It's the imperial mausoleum."

Cheng Xinzhan and Xu Jishen said at the same time.

Xu Ji took a deep look at Cheng Xinzhan. He knew how to look at the Qi, but he didn't expect to use the afterglow of the setting sun to observe the Golden Qi and Yin Qi, and it had never been written in the book.

“Then we have to go to the imperial mausoleum.”

Cheng Xinzhan said.

"Just go, otherwise my wait will be in vain."

Sun Miaoshu said with a smile.

Although the imperial mausoleum is now surrounded by scattered residential buildings, there is still no one inside. Everyone took advantage of the night and directly rode the clouds up to the sky before falling in.

Being trapped in the world of mortals, everyone felt a little strange, but they couldn't tell how uncomfortable they were. It felt like they were inexplicably irritable, but for no reason.

A few people landed on the ground, Zhu Jianmo took the lead and walked in front. The entrance to the imperial mausoleum was clearly marked on the construction album.

Several people walked along the wide and straight Shinto. The stone men and horses on both sides looked a little eerie, but they were all cultivators, so they naturally didn't care about this. They walked all the way to the end of the Shinto, and down there was the entrance to the underground palace. However, there is a thousand kilogram dragon-breaking stone at the entrance to the underground palace.

But again, these people are all cultivators, so naturally they won’t bother to find any institutions. Sun Miaoshu pinched the incantation in his hand and said in his mouth, "Fortune and righteousness, split the stone and open the earth, escape!"

A flash of light flashed, and the six people disappeared on the spot, I only saw the land beside me flowing like water.

Soon, everyone’s feet were on the ground again. The ever-bright lamps, one for every ten steps underground, were still on, presenting a magnificent underground palace in front of everyone’s eyes. Looking at it, it was even bigger than the one on the ground. .

After everyone came in, they also felt a little evil spirit, but they should be the ghosts formed by the remains of the tomb builders or the corpses of those who were buried here for hundreds of years. They were not some big evil spirits that could pollute the earth's veins.

"The Supreme Lord's decree transcends your lonely soul, all ghosts and ghosts, and is blessed by all the four lives..."

The six people read together "The Supreme Taoist Master said the wonderful scripture of resolving injustice, redressing sins, and rebirth." ", read it four or five times, and all the little ghosts in the ground turned into clear light and disappeared.

"Xinzhan, take a look again, where is the source of this mystery?"

Cheng Xinzhan couldn't figure out the reason, so he said: "Let's go to the main coffin first and have a look. , to prove it,”

Naturally, everyone has no opinion.

Zhu Jianmo released a dozen puppet spiders and walked in front. These spiders crawled on the upper, lower, left, and right walls of the corridor to explore their way, but nothing happened. The few people reached the main building smoothly. Tomb.

"In the past, the golden aura here was so strong that mortals would cough up blood and die if they stayed here for a long time, so there shouldn't be any mechanism poison."

Cheng Xinzhan said.

Zhu Jianmo came to the main tomb, said, "Don't blame your ancestors, don't blame your ancestors," and opened the coffins of Ming Tai's grandparents.

Sure enough, there was nothing. There was neither a body nor any mechanism in the coffin.

Cheng Xinzhan thought for a while, stepped on the ground with his feet, and asked Sun Miaoshu,

"Brother Miaoshu, how far can your escape method go?"< br>
“Forty miles, if it’s a round trip, it’s twenty miles.”

“Then let’s continue looking down?”

Cheng Xinzhan felt that there should be nothing in this underground palace. If there was any evil that could disturb the earth's veins, they would have sensed it long ago.

Sun Miaoshu looked at Xu Jishen.

Xu Ji understood deeply and took out a straw pole, holding it in his left and right hands. Cheng Xinzhan looked at him for a while, his left hand turned to his right hand, and his right hand turned to his left hand, and then he held it between his fingers without looking at it. Know what you are doing.

"That's yarrow, Ji Shen is calculating the six lines of hexagram."

Feng Jihu explained in a low voice.

It didn't take long before Xu Jishen put away the yarrow and said,

"The hexagram says that there is no danger, and he will return whole body."

Sun Miaoshu said yes, so he used his escape technique. , and continued down with a few people.

“Huh?”

In the darkness, Sun Miaoshu’s soft eh came.

"What's wrong?"

Everyone is in the dark and doesn't know what happened.

“After going down for five or six miles, there was a restriction that stopped us.”

Sun Miaoshu replied.

“Walking sideways and taking a look.”

Wang Miaoyuan reminded.

"Which direction?"

"Any direction will do. This ban must protect or seal the things below, but this ban cannot be stuffed in out of thin air. Somewhere There must be a hole for you to stand on, just rely on luck."

"Okay. "

Everyone was lucky. Not long after, they felt their eyes light up and crashed into a deeper underground palace. However, this underground palace was very narrow. There was only a long corridor. There was a niche on the side wall of the corridor. There are some strange beasts here. There are no permanent lamps here, but fluorite and luminous pearls are used as lighting.

Cheng Xinzhan looked around and found that a few people were at the entrance of the corridor. There were steps carved out here that seemed to lead directly to somewhere in the underground palace above.

“It’s so cold!”

But what’s different here is that as soon as the people on the second floor came in, they felt a bone-chilling chill, like falling into an ice cellar, as if they were cold to the core. My thoughts were frozen.

“曌!”

Cheng Xinzhan recited a spell.

He played a paper talisman, and the talisman burned with a transparent and slightly warm turmeric flame. The light from the flame dispelled the darkness and also dispelled part of the chill.

Everyone felt better now.

"The gold energy seems to be a lot stronger." Zhu Jianmo said.

Everyone felt that it was indeed the case.

“This is Agarwood Baibu Pill, which benefits the liver and spleen, and is good for relieving the invasion of Yin Qi and Metal Qi into the physical body.”

Feng Jihu took out a pill bottle and asked everyone to take one.

The elixir bottle was passed around in everyone's hands. Everyone took the pills and felt a warmth flowing through their bodies, feeling much more comfortable.

Zhu Jianmo walked in front and released a group of puppets to explore the way.

After walking for half a quarter of an hour, Cheng Xinzhan saw a sudden light coming from the front of the corridor, which seemed to be the end.

Zhu Jianmo also slowed down, and everyone approached cautiously. Looking from a distance, it seemed that there was a huge cave at the end.

Cheng Xinzhan didn't know what was underneath the cave. It was emitting an indescribable light, dark gold mixed with bright green, and black air, making the cave look eerie.

As he approached the entrance of the cave, Zhu Jianmo slowed down a lot. He approached slowly and slowly stretched out his head to take a look.

With just one glance, everyone saw that Zhu Jianmo retracted his head like a frightened rabbit. The expression on his face was extremely complicated, extremely frightened, and could even be said to be dull.

He put his finger tightly to his lips to signal everyone not to make any sound, and pointed outside to let everyone see by themselves.

Sun Miaoshu followed closely behind Zhu Jianmo, also slowly looking out.

However, after waiting for several breaths, everyone saw him turn his head back, his face full of doubts. He shrugged, indicating that he didn't see anything.

Seeing this, Zhu Jianmo was more confused than him and motioned for the rest of the people to see.

So the remaining people slowly came forward.

Cheng Xinzhan was also among them. He slowly probed his head and looked down, only to see:

The strange dark gold and bright green light became more intense as it went down, and there was black smoke mixed in it. It rose up with a strong death aura.

And not far from the bottom of the corridor, he saw another fiery red net, with dark gold and bright green light emitting through the mesh.

Under the fire net, the dark gold and bright green light almost condensed into substance, like water.

Looking down, his pupils contracted sharply, but what was under the surging light water was clearly reflected in his pupils.

The source of the light was actually a green-skinned and golden-horned unicorn lying on its side, as huge as a mountain!
