The library is the place with the largest collection of books in this world. Since the birth of writing, all the finished books have been here. The Book Pavilion was the largest building in the Heavenly Realm, several times larger than the Lingxiao Palace.

There was no guard in the Library, to be precise, there was not a single staff member in the Library, not even a person in charge of cleaning. The Book Pavilion is an open place, and all the immortals can come, but the vast majority of the immortals don't have time to come.

The gods who come to see the books will be responsible for cleaning the messy places themselves, and the books they have read will also be put back in their places, so as to keep the book cabinet clean and orderly.

When I walked into the library, there were only three immortals inside. Two men and one woman, I recognize one of them and one woman, the man is Taiyi Zhenren of Yuxu Palace, Nezha's master, and the obscene little old man with the same name as Lao Ba. At the moment, he was sneakily looking at a book, and the whole person was huddled in a corner, not letting others see it.

The female is the fairy of Gou Chen's upper palace, the Nine Heavens Xuannu who is specially responsible for the catalogue of the art of war, and she is rummaging through the bookshelf at the moment.

The remaining unknown male gods sat slumped against the bookshelf, holding an ancient animal skin and reading with relish. After a rough sense, he didn't alarm the three of them, but just randomly found a bookshelf and found a book to read.

The name of the book is "Heaven and Earth Chronicle", and it seems to be a history book that records the changes of heaven and earth. But I don't know which god wrote it, it doesn't look ancient, and it's actually a bamboo slip.

Before I could open it, I heard a cold voice ask, "When did the Nine Yan Monarchs reach the Heavenly Realm?"

I turned to look, but it was the Nine Heavens Xuannu who came behind me at some point.

"Not long after the upper realm, is the Xuannu okay?"

The Nine Heavens Xuannu is a fairy that all immortals don't like to come into contact with, this fairy is too cold, and it always makes people feel the slightest closeness, even in front of your eyes, you will feel thousands of miles away. I've never seen her take the initiative to talk to other immortals, and I don't want to be asked by her today.

"Yan Jun, I heard that there are many famous generals gathered in the underworld now, I wonder if I can go and visit?"

I thought about it for a while and said, "It's welcome, Xuannu might as well also give a lecture on the art of war to the soldiers of the underworld, the soldiers of the underworld are a little unbearable." ”

The Nine Heavens Xuannu nodded and went straight to find her book.

I was about to continue watching, but I was interrupted by the male fairy I didn't recognize.

"You are the Nine Yan Monarch of the Underworld?"

I raised my eyes and looked at him, a young immortal, his cultivation was not high, it seemed that he had just become a heavenly immortal, and his breath was still unstable.

I nodded, "Exactly, are you?"

The young immortal tidied up his clothes and said solemnly: "Junior brother Xuandu, I have seen senior brother." ”

This is the first time I have met Xuandu, the only disciple that the teacher has received from ancient times to the present, and it doesn't seem to be anything special.

"It turns out that you are the senior disciple of Xuandu, I heard that you are traveling around the heavenly realm, why are you here?"

Xuan Du said embarrassedly: "I... I wandered around the Celestial Realm for a few days, and when I found that I didn't know the way, I came to the Book Pavilion to check the map. ”

I smiled and said, "Why is it so troublesome, the eyesight of the heavenly immortals can reach thousands of miles, you only need to write down a few signs." ”

Xuandu scratched his head and said: "Thank you for your advice, I won't bother my senior brother, and I will go to the underworld to visit my senior brother again when I have time." ”

I smiled and nodded, watching Xuandu leave the library, this little junior brother is quite interesting.

On weekdays, when I was in Tushi Palace, I should have a lot of funny stories with the medicine boy and the shepherd boy.

Calm down and read the books, one after another, and by the time I came out of the book pavilion, it was already the night of the heavenly realm.

When I arrived in the Heavenly Realm, it was still noon, and now it is night, and it has been a quarter since I came to the underworld and the human world.

I have descended from the Heavenly Realm, and I have not alarmed any of the immortals, nor have I visited any of my old acquaintances in the Heavenly Realm. Just come quietly, go quietly.

There is no fixed path from the heavenly realm to the human world, just walk out of the heavenly gate and jump downward. As for where it falls on earth, it is all up to luck.

The scenery of this passage is not so good, except that the clouds are the earth, and the speed of falling is so fast that you can't see anything at a glance, and when you come back to your senses, you have arrived in the world.

I was lucky enough to land in Hongguyuan, not far from Chang'an. transformed into a set of clothes and walked towards Chang'an.

The luck of the world is gradually stabilizing from chaos, which means that it is moving from chaos to rule. The farmstead you see on the road has an idyllic atmosphere, and the farmers are wearing linen shirts and working in the fields. You can see their happiness, it is the scene brought by peace, and the people who have experienced war are always more satisfied and happy, and only need a little peace.

The emperor of the world is Liu Bang's eldest son, Liu Ying. But it is Liu Ying's mother, that is, Liu Bang's wife, Lu Pheasant, who is in power. Lü Pheasant seemed to be more suitable for governing the country than Liu Bang, this woman was more patient, and the repeated provocations of the Huns were all resolved by her lightly, and she silently endured the humiliation inflicted by the enemy, and secretly prepared to fight back.

The war between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu has been fought for a long time, and the Han Dynasty has been beaten most of the time. The lack of cavalry made it difficult for the Han army to occupy an advantage on the battlefield in the north, and among the founding heroes who were still alive, there were no generals who were good at fighting field battles, so the Han Dynasty could only endure it.

I can't help but think of the Qin Dynasty again, the Hetao recovered by Meng Tian's 300,000 generals has now been captured by the Xiongnu, and the crossbowmen used by the Qin army to conquer the world have disappeared. War is the loss of many things, the former masters, ordnance, have been lost in the turbulent times. The Han Dynasty re-established the construction of various systems to be completed on the ruins.

If Lao Ying sees today's world, he is afraid that he will be dizzy, he has never been bullied by foreigners when he was in charge of the country. Speaking of which, the battle plan for the Xiongnu Prefecture has been placed on the table of the Yan Jun Palace, and naturally it will not be because of the whim of the Yan Jun.

The underworld would not start a war at will because of the attitude of the Yama monarchs, and the Emperor of Heaven would not allow the underworld to start such a war. The battle plan against the Xiongnu Difu was actually because of human affairs. The Xiongnu were always attacking the border, killing many soldiers at the border passes, and taking away many people back. The ghosts of the dead Hun soldiers were received into the underworld under our jurisdiction, and the people who died in the Huns were taken in by the Huns. According to the rules of communication with the Buddha realm and other regions, these ghosts should be sent back to their places of origin for trial and reincarnation, and they should not stay with each other for too long unless the two prefectures have communicated with each other.

But the Xiongnu's underworld did not abide by such a criterion, perhaps because of the annexation of some small underworlds, which caused the main god of the Xiongnu underworld to be a little arrogant, or perhaps the defeat of the human war made the other party's main god misjudge our attitude. In short, the Xiongnu Difu only received the ghosts we sent back, but did not return the ghosts that should be returned.

Naturally, there will only be one such outcome, and that is the force solution that the Yan monarchs have already decided. There is only one reason why they haven't really started yet, that is, Yan Jun is waiting for Yingzheng's release from prison, and the armaments of the underworld really need to be reorganized. The request of the Yan monarchs for the use of troops has been reviewed by the Emperor of Heaven, and the Emperor of Heaven has approved it very happily, and the Emperor of Heaven is not a person who can bear his anger.

The preparations of the underworld this time are very detailed, after all, it has been an unknown number of years since the last time the army was used. And at that time, there were no soldiers in the underworld, and it was still Yan Jun's own hands.

The second immortal, who had just been promoted to a golden immortal, rushed over, overturned the eighteen small dungeons that surrounded the underworld at that time, annexed one by one, and put the main gods of the eighteen small underworlds into reincarnation. At that time, the reason was because the other party contained several evil gods who were hunted down by the heavenly realm, and the evil gods who were born and raised. The evil god was finally overwhelmed and beheaded Sendai, beheaded Xiuwei, and suppressed the Gou Chen Shanggong in the West Pole.

Now it's not what it used to be, the current underworld soldiers are strong and strong, and there is no need for Yan Jun to do it. And the strongest on the other side is just a heavenly immortal, which is just right for training.

Chang'an is not far from Xianyang, the former capital of Qin, and compared with the former Xianyang City, today's Chang'an is a little more wealthy. I looked in the direction of Weiyang Palace, where the king of this empire did not seem happy.

Liu Ying's pace is very slow and his steps are very light, which is not because he deliberately does this, but because of his weak body. The imperial doctor said that he was not suitable for too much work, he just smiled bitterly, where is his share of work, his wise and resolute queen mother has already done all his work.

He was going to visit the living god who had been forcibly left in the court by his mother. He was very grateful to Liuhou, and if he didn't, he was afraid that he would be deposed when he was the crown prince. His mother was also very grateful to stay in the wait, because the stay and dedication saved his crown prince, and his mother became the queen mother today. The second empress dowager after the Empress Dowager Xuan of Great Qin, the great empress dowager who upheld national politics.

Liu Ying coughed up blood again, pushed away the eunuch who was going to help him next to him, and walked out of the palace with his body dangling.

Lu Pheasant is no longer young, but he does not look very old. She was in her youth when she married Liu Bang, and now she is only in her early forties, and she still retains the beauty of a woman. But she is not only beautiful, she also has the supreme power of this empire, and at the same time has a trace of melancholy that is difficult to remove.

She always felt that her son was too young and too naïve in state affairs to control the ministers who had followed Liu Bang to open the country, and she couldn't stop the Huns who were eyeing the north in the north.

Mao Dunshan Yu of the Xiongnu wrote her another letter, asking for a lot of food and beautiful women. She can only give, and she doesn't have much choice in this kind of thing.

This huge empire also has a part of her, and the credit for the founding of the country does not only belong to Liu Bang and his group of heroes, she and her family have also paid a lot, and her commitment to marry is the biggest kind of payment. She loves her son, she loves this empire.

In Zhang Liang's mansion, many students knelt in the courtyard, waiting for the legendary figure to teach Huang Lao's knowledge. Where they couldn't see was the city god of Chang'an and all the judges and soldiers who didn't need to be on duty. Zhang Liang is a disciple of the Heavenly Immortal Huang Shi Gong in the Heavenly Realm, although Huang Shi Gong is only a Heavenly Immortal, but there are not many immortals in the underworld combined, and many Yan Jun are still only Heavenly Immortal cultivators. As a disciple of the immortals, Zhang Liang's preaching was very attractive to the judges and soldiers of the Chenghuang Mansion. Of course, except for the city god, the city god of Chang'an is an earth immortal, a disciple of the third generation of Biyou Palace, and the same generation as Yang Jian and Nezha. Although his cultivation is far away, he is also from a famous family, and he came to listen to Zhang Liang's sermon just to have a good time.

I came in together when Liu Ying entered the door, Liu Ying and the students couldn't see me, the city god could see me but didn't recognize me, and the judge next to the city god could see me and know me.

This judge was a minister at the end of the Xia Dynasty, called Guan Longxiao, who was killed by Xia Wei because of his words, and was left in the underworld as a judge. Guan Longxiao is a very low-key judge, and he is also one of the ghosts and gods in the underworld.

"Guan Longxiao, the judge of Chang'an Mansion, has seen the king, when will the king arrive? ”

Only then did Chenghuang know my identity, and he also paid homage: "Chang'an Chenghuang has seen Lord Yanjun, and your lord is here, do you have any orders?"

I shook my head and said, "There is no need for this, I am only here to travel, and I have no official business, you can just do your own thing, and you don't need to care about me." Today, I just came to see Zhang Liang. Ten Yan Jun was very optimistic about him. ”

Guan Long said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I also received a letter from the prefecture, which was sent by the Ten Yan Jun, asking to pay close attention to Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and Chen Ping, and once they die, they must be sent to the Yan Jun Palace as soon as possible, without going through the Judge's Mansion." ”

I nodded and said, "You have to keep an eye on it, especially Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang is the most likely to become an autopsy immortal, once he dies, he may be an earth immortal, you have to watch it, don't give birth to chaos." ”

Chenghuang smiled and said: "Don't worry, my lord, I have arranged the secret method of the master in Chang'an, as long as I am not a heavenly immortal, I can't escape." ”

I asked, "But Biyou Sancai Array?"

Chenghuang was surprised: "How do you know my master's secret method?"

I smiled and said, "In the past, I listened to the sermon in Biyou Palace, and I was fortunate to hear it. ”

chatted with the two of them for a few more words, but seeing that the students on the field were silent, Zhang Liang slowly came out of the inner courtyard and saluted Liu Ying.

Liu Ying helped him up and said with a smile: "Today is to wait for the sermon, and I am also here to listen to the preaching. ”

Zhang Liang bowed again. Walking into the courtyard, the student had a futon in front of him, which was prepared for him. He stood behind the futon, but he was not in a hurry to sit down, but bowed three more times to the east, and the students were puzzled, and Zhang Liang did not explain.

I saw Zhang Liang bowing three times to the position of me and Chenghuang, and I was a little surprised, and said: "He can actually sense the existence of you and me, Huangshi Gong can teach such a disciple, it can be seen that it is not simple!"

Chenghuang said: "After all, Huang Shigong is a disciple of the Jade Void Palace, a disciple of the Red Sperm, although he is more low-key in the Heavenly Realm on weekdays, he still has some skills. Of course, compared with the Yan Jun of the underworld, it is still far inferior. ”

I smiled and nodded, he wasn't a compliment. The immortals of the underworld are more lofty than the immortals of the heavenly realm in the same realm, probably because they are used to seeing life and death, meaningless joys and sorrows, and are closer to the realm of forgetfulness.

Zhang Liang began to preach, first talking about how to govern the country in the way of Huang Lao, then how to cultivate oneself, and finally how to meditate. Most of the students are a little puzzled, according to the normal order, it should be meditation first, and then self-cultivation and governance, why is it reversed!

But I know that this is Zhang Liang's method of preaching the Tao, but unfortunately all the people present are mediocre and can't understand it. However, Liu Ying had some insights, but she was limited by her frailty and could not understand more.

Zhang Liang obviously saw this as well. He bowed to Liu Ying and said: "Your Majesty's body is too weak, when you have time, you might as well copy the Tao Te Ching, concentrate and calm your mind, which will help you maintain your health." ”

Liu Ying smiled bitterly twice, and didn't answer, but just let the left and right attendants help him go.

When the emperor left, Zhang Liang bowed to the city god again: "Zhang Liang is fortunate to be able to lead the immortal here, can the immortal appear for a while?"

Chenghuang looked at me embarrassedly, immortals generally don't see mortals, unless mortals see immortals first, which proves that this mortal is destined to cross. But Zhang Liang's situation is a little different, he is a disciple of immortals, but he is just a mortal, although he can sense the immortals, but he can't see the immortals. Let the city god only feel that it is not to see, and it is not to see it.

Seeing his embarrassment, I said, "Go and see him, and if he asks you about the state of heaven and earth, you might as well answer truthfully." ”

Chenghuang replied, "Yes, I will obey the orders of my lord." ”

I didn't linger too long, and asked the judge to leave me a room in the Chenghuang Mansion, and then left Zhang Liang's house to see the world in Chang'an City.
