The ancients greatly admired the number "nine", and many people still like this number until now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Nine is the largest in the single digit, like the emperor looking down on the heroes, China is divided into Kyushu, the emperor is called the "Ninety-Five Supreme", the capital is also known as the "Forty-Nine City", the building of human beings in the world has a nine-story pagoda, and there are nine deep springs underground.

The pagoda above ground is easy to build, but the nine-story tomb underground is even more difficult to build.

Building ancient tombs is different from digging coal mines, there are too many dangers unknown to human beings underground, the soil on the surface is easy to excavate, down is the hard loess, there is groundwater under the loess, the groundwater is still loess after digging, and then there is a hard rock layer.

The ancient tomb of King Yan where they are located was built by order of Emperor Murong Jun of Jingzhao when the national power of the Great Yan Kingdom was at its peak, but unlike the mausoleum of Emperor Qin, what is buried in this nine-story imperial mausoleum is not Murong Jun who ordered the construction of the mausoleum, nor his son, but Murong Chui and Murong Bao father and son of Houyan.

The construction of this mausoleum is extremely hidden and dangerous, and the hidden place is that the ancient tomb is built in Yanbei, under a barren hill, one hundred and ten miles east of the Gesang River. From Feng Shui, it is not dominant, and there is no dragon vein adjacent. The Murong clan is a Hu person, who doesn't care about feng shui, but he secretly ventilates water.

There are no coffins above the fifth floor of the ancient tomb, but there are many dangers.

Outside the ancient tomb, there is a highly poisonous "eight-clawed monster" human-faced spider secretly guarding it, and the first layer is an ordinary underground cavern, but the passage to the second layer is a bottomless abyss from above, and its depth cannot be detected. Only those who seek death will jump.

If it weren't for the fact that an unlucky tomb robber was pushed down the abyss by his angry companions, he found that there was a second layer of the ancient tomb, but the further he went, the more dangerous it became.

The third and fourth floors of the tomb are guarded by two "bosses", and there is a safe place on the fifth floor of the tomb to produce rotary-winged beasts and fire-maned rats, who would have thought that the coffin would be buried on the sixth floor?

Yuxiao was naturally familiar with her family's history, but she didn't say much to outsiders, so Lien was curious why there were so many mushroom stones here?

Abi also said: "It seems that the skeleton soldiers here are all drilled out of these mushroom stones?" Could it be that these mushroom stones are petrified figurines? ”

Wang Junping is also a member of the Carefree Sect, and he is familiar with these side doors, so he said: "The figurines are still petrified?" How is it possible, I see that these mushroom stones are clearly sarcophagi from trees, which have been deliberately carved into mushroom shapes. ”

Qi Wanchun asked, "Then what's going on with this skeleton soldier?" Could it really be that there are ghosts, or that they have been cast by a master to guard the ancient tomb here? ”

Yuxiao knew the situation, but she didn't want to say more, so they had to guess for themselves.

There was no sun or moon underground, and they didn't know the time, but they felt sleepy, hungry, and thirsty. Liu Mengwei carried these injured companions back to the ground on flying bird mounts, and the Xiuzhen sect members who stayed outside the ancient tomb were very happy to see them return.

Lien also followed them up and asked Zhao Anbang about it, it was already October, and the first snow had melted, but the weather was colder, and it was warmer than in the ancient tomb.

Seeing the injured chivalrous girl and the beggar gang disciples, these disciples of the Xiuzhen Sect felt better, and they were glad that they didn't go down rashly, otherwise they would have ended up like this.

During the rest stage, Wu Hua Ding ordered the people to dig a pit on the spot and bury these dead beggar disciples simply.

Qi Wanchun said, "Did you just bury our beggar disciples in a hurry?" ”

Li Haibo asked rhetorically: "Then do you want to bury them for anything?" We don't have it, it's good to have a thin-skinned coffin, and it's enough glory to be buried next to the imperial tomb! ”

Qi Wanchun was helpless, and his superior, Qi Sanxi, had no choice but to give up.

Li En received a report from the disciples of the Beggar Gang who stayed behind in Yanmen Pass, saying that Tong Caixia had led the Cultivation Sect to feel Yanmen Pass, but they did not leave the pass without the order of the alliance leader. Lien climbed the barren hill and looked towards the northern plains, only to see that the Liao army led by Yelu Huzhen was still stationed here, and it seemed that the other party was still wary of himself, and the exploration of the ancient tomb should also be hurried.

After returning to the camp outside the ancient tomb, Zhao Jiulong of the Xiuwu faction rode a deer and stepped on the mud to meet him, reported the traces of the Xiuwu faction, and then asked: "The warriors of the Yipintang of the Western Xia Kingdom were just bluffing outside the Yumen Pass, and did not plan to attack our Great Song Dynasty, and withdrew to the Western Xia country at the end of September. ”

Li En said: "Now that our pursuit of King Mu is nearing the end, but the whereabouts of Elder Shui's father and daughter are still unknown, you stay and continue to guard Yanmen Pass, so as not to fool Elder Shui's father and daughter through the pass!" ”

Zhao Jiulong responded, then said goodbye and left, and returned to Yanmen Pass to pass the order.

The people of the Qin family's old village sent food again, and Rien was restless in the tent, always feeling that something bad was going to happen.

A huge flying dragon flew in the sky, Xu Jie took Xue Muhua down from the back of the flying dragon and met the alliance leader, Zhao Anbang led the Xiuzhen sect to salute him.

Li En hurriedly asked the two of them to enter the account, Xu Jie glanced at Yuxiao, and said, "What is the result of the alliance leader's actions here?" Is there any trace of Elder Shui's father and daughter? ”

It was inconvenient for Li En to answer this matter, so Yuxiao replied for him: "We have already found King Mu's message in the ancient tomb, and we have fought with King Mu in the fifth floor of the ancient tomb, and several masters led by Jin Guoshi are chasing him!" ”

After hearing this, Xu Jie said: "It's good that the alliance leader has a harvest, the old man came here to bring a bad news for the alliance leader, Miss Gao was taken to Suzhou by his parents to recuperate, the environment there is better, originally Doctor Xue was also going to be taken along, but I am worried about the safety of the alliance leader, enter the ancient tomb to explore, all kinds of unexpected dangers will occur, so I brought Doctor Xue to help!" ”

Li En said: "Thank you Senior Xu, we can be treated by the Emei faction, didn't I let the two children escort back to the alliance lord's mansion?" How are the two of them now? What about my eldest brother? ”

Xue Muhua said: "Miss Aqing was also taken to Suzhou by Gao You's envoy, and the apprentice was a little reluctant to do so, but the old man left the two of them in the alliance leader's mansion and was taken care of by Yu Gongzi. ”

Xu Jie added: "Although the alliance leader can rest assured, the two children are the safest in the alliance leader's mansion, and Yu Gongzi also invited Mr. Private School to teach the two to read. Among the news sent back from all over the country, there was no news of Elder Shui's father and daughter, but because the grassland was the territory of the Liao Kingdom, and the west of the Flame Mountain was too far away, neither of these two local alliance leaders sent anyone to investigate, so there was no news coming! ”

Rien asked, "Senior Xu means that it is possible for Elder Shui's father and daughter to flee to these two places?" ”

Wu Huading immediately denied: "Impossible, we have been guarding the entrance of Yanmen Pass and the grassland, and we have strictly checked all the people who entered the grassland, and there is no Elder Shui father and daughter passing by at all!" And the Jade Gate Pass is guarded by the Cultivator Sect, and Elder Shui's father and daughter will not be reluctant to seek the near and far and flee to the Flame Mountain! ”

Xu Jie said: "As far as the old man knows, you have already withdrawn from the entrance of the grassland to the Yanmen Pass, and the Cultivation Sect has only recently rushed to guard the Yanmen Pass. (To be continued.) )
