Not long after Ning Caichen opened the scroll, Zuo Qianhu came to visit him in the house, and after some greetings and words, Zuo Qianhu signaled Ning Caichen to take him into the backyard of Taifu's mansion to watch the rockery. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

During this period, neither of them mentioned a single word about the scroll.

"Mr. Zhuge , please come with me. ”

Zuo Qianhu and Ning Caichen circled around the rockery a few times, and then Zuo Qianhu twisted a stone on a rockery, and the rockery cracked, revealing a secret passage that could only accommodate one person.

Zuo Qianhu's face was full of solemnity and vigilance, and he said in an unquestionable voice.

Ning Caichen may not be extremely smart, but at least he is not a stupid person, after seeing the picture scroll, he has already vaguely guessed some inside stories, so he did not hesitate to follow Zuo Qianhu and go down the secret passage.

The passage was long and dark, with no lighting in the narrow passage, and neither of the men entering it was carrying torches.

Ning Caichen pulled the corner of Zuo Qianhu's clothes to walk through the secret passage, and Zuo Qianhu acquiesced to this.

"Senior Zhuge You're here?"

The two of them walked in the secret passage for about half an hour before they saw the light, walking in the dark for a long time made Ning Caichen's eyes unable to adapt to the light at the first time, just as he squinted his eyes and tried to see what the destination of this trip was, a familiar voice came from the front.

"Zhiqiu Yiye...... Brother Zhiqiu?"

Although he had already had a conjecture in his heart, Ning Caichen couldn't help but exclaim when he heard this voice.

"You're here, it's really good!"

Ning Caichen's eyesight quickly recovered, and he found that he had entered an underground palace, the floor of the main hall was engraved with Tai Chi Bagua, and sixteen oil lamps were placed in the four corners of the underground palace in the shape of the eight trigrams, shining as bright as day.

There were sixteen people sitting cross-legged in the underground palace, as if they corresponded to the candle flame one by one, and Ye Zhiqiu was among them, and at this moment he looked at Ning Caichen and smiled.

It's just that he didn't get up, and even after saying this, he immediately closed his eyes and said something in his mouth.

"What are you doing here?"

Ning Caichen felt that this scene in this underground palace was very strange, like some kind of evil ritual.

"Master Taifu, have you ever heard of 'Tengu Eating the Moon'?"

Zuo Qianhu said, he signaled Ning Caichen not to disturb the people sitting in the underground palace.

"'Tengu Eats the Moon'?"

Ning Caichen naturally knew about the 'Tengu Eating the Moon', looking at this strange underground palace, looking at this group of strange-looking people sitting cross-legged and chanting their own words, he vaguely guessed what these people were doing, but he was not sure.

The heavens are so high, and the stars are so vast, that humans are pitifully small in comparison.

Can such a small force really affect such a great being?

The answer given by Zuo Qianhu was 'yes'.

"The Dao Masters are communicating with the stars with their own life elements, triggering the 'Tengu Eating the Moon' to happen, so we still don't want to disturb here. ”

This underground palace is not the destination that Zuo Qianhu and Ning Caichen really want to arrive, they are just passing by here, and immediately Zuo Qianhu doesn't care what Ning Caichen has to say and ask, he directly pulls Ning Caichen out of the side of the palace and goes straight to the back of the underground palace.

The underground palace was originally the place where the deceased prince was buried, but at this moment there is a living king in this underground palace.

"Mr. Ning, you're here. ”

The place where the sixteen Taoists sat before should be the front hall, and at this moment, Ning Caichen and Zuo Qianhu entered the main hall.

The main hall is full of coffins, Ning Caichen estimated at a glance that there are about thirty or forty mouths, each coffin is carved with dragons and painted phoenixes, although it is the most unwilling thing to see in people's lives, but it exudes an unspeakable imperial atmosphere.

In the coffin is the emperor buried.

For no reason, such a sentence popped up in Ning Caichen's mind.

These coffins formed a circle, as if they were placed according to a certain formation, and in the circle, a dragon chair made of gold was placed, and a figure in a dragon robe was already sitting on the dragon chair.

There is no need to ask, no need to say, Ning Caichen knelt down to the dragon chair and the figure sitting on the dragon chair.

"Grass people Ning Caichen, knock to see the emperor. ”

The courtesy of the monarch and the minister cannot be abolished, and in the eyes of Ning Caichen at this moment, this emperor is by no means the faint monarch that the outside world has rumored, and even he himself thought before.

"No need to be polite, from the moment I sat on this chair I ceased to be the Emperor. ”

He did not wear a crown on his head, and only a white belt was tied around his head.

"Right now, I'm just a sinner full of sins, if you don't mind, just call me 'Uncle Zhao'. ”

There was a sickly pale on his face, and even a person like Ning Caichen, who did not understand the law and medical science, could see the meaning of 'this person must die soon'.

"Your Majesty ......?!"

Ning Caichen didn't understand what the 'Uncle Zhao' in front of him was talking about, he didn't understand why the other party asked him to call himself 'Uncle Zhao', he didn't understand why the other party didn't ask him about the crime of bullying the king committed by impersonating Zhuge Wolong, and he didn't understand why the person who was enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden less than two hours ago would become like this.

He had so many things to ask that he didn't know which one to say first.

"Mr. Zhuge is my old friend, and the heirs he identified are qualified to call me 'Uncle Zhao'. ”

The emperor has been in a high position for a long time, who has never seen it? At this moment, any thought in Ning Caichen's mind is clear to him at a glance.

"Uncle Zhao!"

At this point, Ning Caichen had to praise him like this.

"Good, good. ”

The emperor smiled, if there was a historian by his side, he would definitely write down the sentence 'Longyan Dayue'.

It's just that there are no historians here, and what happened today will never appear in the official history.

"I've been here for 7749 days, and I haven't left for a moment, and today I have finally succeeded. The one outside the palace is actually my stand-in, the most loyal stand-in. ”

The emperor said this, without Ning Caichen opening his mouth, he took the initiative to answer the questions in Ning Caichen's heart one by one.

"The time of the Tengu Eclipse Day is the weakest time for Pudu Cihang, and at this time, tonight is coming, Ning Xian's nephew, since Mr. Zhuge has chosen you as his heir, then the future of this country will be entrusted to you......"

The Emperor said this, his voice getting softer and softer, and when he reached the last few words, he was already inaudible.

"Uncle Zhao?"

Ning Caichen hurriedly got up from the ground and took a few steps closer.

"It's okay...... Now is not the time...... Sooner or later, I'll go see your master...... But now is not the time to ......"

The Emperor reluctantly said.

Ning Caichen, who had taken a few steps closer, saw the emperor's current situation clearly-the dragon robe on his body was wide and loose, covering almost ninety percent of his body, but Ning Caichen saw the emperor's ribs through the neckline of the dragon robe.

What a skinny man!

Ning Caichen remembered the refugees he had seen outside, scrawny refugees.

"Listen...... Purdue Cihang will definitely die tonight...... Ning Xian's nephew...... Carry forward Brother Zhuge Dao!"

The emperor sighed, he knew that he was indeed too reluctant today.

"You go, General Zuo will take you to a place...... Tonight, no matter what happens, don't show your head......"

The Emperor said.
