After listening to Song Zheng's "strange dream", Old Man Gao didn't pay much attention to it. People in this era are still relatively superstitious, and since ancient times, some unexplained things have been accustomed to talking about dreams. Almost all of the celebrities in Chinese history who have made great achievements have visions, either when their mother was pregnant with him, they dreamed of a dragon at home, or when they were born, the house was full of red light and flowers. Before the incident, the Taizu of the Great Qi Dynasty claimed that he had dreamed of riding a giant dragon on the Nine Heavens. Although it's all nonsense, the common people still believe it.

Of course, Song Zheng also begged Old Man Gao not to tell about the "strange dream", so as not to be regarded as an outlier by his family and the people in the village. Old man Gao smiled and agreed.

After chatting with Old Man Gao, Song Zheng began to learn the Five Birds Opera, and when he was tired of learning, he would read the medical books of Old Man Gao's house, or identify some herbs. In the following days, Song Zheng exercised in the morning, went to Old Man Gao's house in the morning, exercised in the afternoon, read history books for a while in the evening, and spent more time exercising, and his body gradually became stronger.

While Song Zheng was busy exercising, in Jiangning, the capital city thousands of miles away, four people rode high-headed horses and went straight to Mizhou. The leader is a man in white about 20 years old, with a face like a crown of jade, slender eyes, a jade belt around his waist, and a piece of turquoise and crystal jade. Slightly behind half of the horse's body was an old man in black in his fifties, with a lean figure and bright eyes, and very energetic. The two big men dressed as family members are more than 30 meters apart and are embellished behind them.

Seeing that there was no one before and after the official road, the white-clothed man said: "Old Lu, this time my father can send me to Shandong, and thank you for your advice." My good big brother would be red-eyed if he knew! With that, the man in white couldn't help but laugh.

The old man in black said: "The second son is serious, the son is young and old, and he is resourceful, so it is most suitable to do this errand." Although the eldest prince is brave and extraordinary, he is a little rough in his work. ”

The second son smiled, "Anyway, if this can really be done, my father will definitely be very happy." The Double Ninth Festival in early September is also my father's 50th birthday. Now it's just August, and if you can transport these treasures back before my father's birthday, it will be a great gift. ”

The old man in black, known as Lu Lao, said, "I hope so. Coincidentally, nearly fifty years have passed since the incident, and now it is really unexpected to be able to get the news of King Lu's secret treasure. ”

The second son said: "Before leaving, my father simply explained this matter, I still don't know the ins and outs of the whole thing, can Lu Lao tell me in detail?" ”

"This matter is a long story, and it has to start with the Song and Jin joint forces to destroy Liao." Lu Lao said: "In the seventh year of Song Xuanhe (1125) of the previous dynasty, although the Song soldiers were defeated by the Liao army, they obtained the sixteen states of Yanyun. The Jin soldiers were victorious in all battles, approaching Zhongjing (in today's Chifeng, Inner Mongolia), and Emperor Liao Tianzuo fled westward, wanting to leave Western Xia, but was captured by the Jin soldiers on the way, and the Liao State perished. ”

The second prince said, "I know this history, but what does this have to do with King Lu's Secret Collection?" ”

Lu Lao said: "The second son listened to me slowly. Before Emperor Tianzuo left, he asked Liu Fengnian, the deputy commander of the Shan Army (Emperor Liao's Imperial Tent Army), to stay in Zhongjing, hoping to slow down the Jin soldiers' march and gain time for the westward escape. Who knew that Liu Fengnian led more than 2,000 Han cronies to launch a rebellion, sweeping away most of the treasury and many royal jewels. The Liao State had a large number of Shan's army, and Liu Fengnian knew that he was invincible, so he took the looted treasures out of Zhongjing and fled all the way south. Because the Jin soldiers were approaching at that time, the people's hearts were scattered, and Emperor Tianzuo was in a hurry to flee west, so he couldn't take care of Liu Fengnian. After Liu Fengnian rebelled out of Zhongjing, he played the banner of Song soldiers. Passing through the interval between the Jin soldiers' marches, he surrendered to the Song army at that time. Due to the new defeat of the Song soldiers, seeing Liu Feng's surrender, he was naturally overjoyed and awarded him the governor of Luzhou and the governor of the army. On the way to flee south, Liu Fengnian looted a large amount of property, and also collected many Han stragglers among the Liao soldiers, with more than 10,000 troops.

After Jin destroyed Liao, he immediately waved his army south, and then the Jingkang Incident occurred. At that time, there was a chaotic situation, and the Taizu of this dynasty started to fight in the Daimyo's Mansion and began to conquer the world. Liu Fengnian abandoned Luzhou and fled south again, passing through Jizhou and Enzhou, entering Shandong, and occupying Licheng (now Jinan) in Qizhou. During Liu Fengnian's escape to the south, he was also a soldier and a bandit, constantly plundering, and his wealth reached an astonishing level. Later, Liu Fengnian occupied the entire territory of Shandong, known as the king of Lu, and looted a lot of property in various parts of Shandong.

After the Jin soldiers plundered the Song Dynasty and returned to the north, the Central Plains rose together, including both the generals of the Song Dynasty and the grass king who temporarily pulled the pole to start an incident. Taizu of this dynasty adopted the advice of the Magi, proclaimed himself the Marshal of the Song Bingbei Road, and found a distant relative of the Song family and made him Emperor of the Song Dynasty. Taizu followed Wei Wu's example, coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and gathered most of the anti-Jin rebels. Due to the swift uprising of Taizu and the southward march from Yunzhou bypassing the Jin soldiers, the other people did not form a climate, so they soon unified the land south of the Yellow River and occupied Jiangnan. During this period, the Western Xia army also moved south to occupy Hanzhong, and the Jin soldiers were no longer able to invade south due to civil strife, so Taizu was able to successfully dominate the world in ten years. So far, only Liu Fengnian, the king of Lu, who occupies Shandong, and Lang Yucheng, the king of Shu, who occupies Sichuan, have not been attached to Taizu.

After the Song Emperor established by Taizu died of illness, Taizu also died early due to war wounds. So, Taizong called the emperor Yu Jiangning, this is our Great Qi Dynasty. After Taizong became emperor, after several years of preparation, he waved his army to ask for Lu. Taizong personally led the three-way army from Yunzhou, Qizhou, and Xuzhou to attack Shandong, and the king of Lu could not stop and retreated to Weizhou (now Weifang). When Taizong attacked Lu, he ordered his general Han Zhong, who died in prison a few years ago, to send troops from Suzhou, bypass the Shandong Peninsula by sea, land in Laizhou, and approach Weizhou. Due to the heavy flood of the Yellow River at that time, King Lu could not flee north, so he had to retreat to Mizhou. Han Zhong's subordinate section set out from Haizhou (now Lianyungang) and landed in Jiaozhou, southeast of Mizhou, to outflank Queen Lu. At this point, King Lu has fallen into the encirclement of our Great Qi army.

King Lu knew that he could not escape defeat, and asked for surrender several times. Because Taizong had failed to surrender King Lu several times before, and hated his tyrannical nature, he did not accept King Lu's surrender. King Lu had no choice, so he ordered a henchman to lead 300 pro-troops to secretly transfer the treasures he plundered to a certain place for future troubles. After that, Taizong issued a killing order to King Lu, and King Lu knew that he could not escape death, so in order to cover up the treasure, so as not to let Taizong get it, he poisoned all the 300 pro-soldiers. Later, King Lu hanged himself in the city of Mizhou. The treasures hidden by King Lu are known as the Secret Treasure of King Lu. This is the origin of King Lu's Vault. After Taizong occupied Mizhou, the treasure hunt was unsuccessful, and he was anxious to stabilize the whole territory of Shandong, so he let the matter go. Since then, King Lu's secret treasure has sunk into the sea and has disappeared. ”

After Lu Lao finished speaking, the second son breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "I didn't expect the origin of King Lu's secret treasure to be so complicated, and it originally came from the Great Liao Clan. ”

Lu Lao said, "Yes, at that time, although there was a legend that King Lu had a secret treasure, no one knew where it went, and this history was slowly drowned in the sea of history." ”

The second prince said: "In this case, how did Lu Lao know the news of the secret treasure?" ”

Lu Lao said: "Although King Lu is secretive, there are still people who escape. At that time, King Lu poured poison into the meat soup, and one of the three hundred pro-soldiers, because of his bad stomach, only ate a little, and when he saw that the others were all foaming at the mouth and dying, he immediately endured the abdominal pain and pretended to die, and escaped. This pro-soldier named Jiang Da took advantage of the chaos to flee to a people's house in Mizhou, changed into the clothes of ordinary people, and escaped from Mizhou. Then he went south and settled in Changxing, Huzhou, and then made a living fishing in Taihu Lake.

After the world settled down, Jiang Da also wanted to go north to Mizhou to find the secret, but he didn't dare to tell the secret to others casually, so he had to keep the secret until he was old. Before Jiang Da died, he told his grandson Jiang Huan this secret. Jiang Huan naturally didn't dare to talk to others casually. Fortunately, he learned some martial arts from his grandfather, and later joined our 'Dark Eagle' organization, and gradually accumulated his work, from an ordinary 'Black Eagle' to a Green Eagle, and then to a Red Eagle in charge of Huzhou. This time, in order to be promoted to a higher level and in charge of all the way (equivalent to a province), he went to Jinling alone to find me and revealed to me the news of Lu Gong's secret treasure. I didn't dare to slack off, so I immediately told the head of the house. The head of the family was overjoyed. The head of the family considered that his goal was too big and it was not easy to go to Mizhou in person, and he was afraid that the news would be known to that one's capital, so he wanted to secretly arrange for a son to go to Mizhou with the next one to dig up the secret treasure. Because the second son has always been low-key, the goal is not obvious, and the resourcefulness is extraordinary, the head of the family listened to the advice of the next and let the second son act together with the next son. ”

The second son said: "I see. So where is this vault buried? What are the arrangements for Lu Laoke? ”

Lu Lao rode up and whispered to the second son: "Mizhou - Maling Lake." ”

The second prince exclaimed in a low voice: "King Lu's secret treasure is actually hidden in the lake?" ”

Lu Lao nodded and said, "According to Jiang Da, after they transported the treasure out of Mizhou, they traveled all the way to the south-west, about a hundred miles, before they reached a big lake. I consulted the Mizhou Atlas and determined that this large lake was Maling Lake. Because of this, I mobilized thirty Dark Eagle experts who were proficient in water from Jiangnan, including Jiang Huan, to secretly infiltrate Mizhou in batches. After we arrive in Mizhou, we will gather the Dark Eagles of Yizhou, Weizhou, Laizhou, and Qingzhou, plus the Dark Eagles of Mizhou, and these manpower should be able to transport the Secret Treasure out. ”

The second prince frowned and said, "At that time, when King Lu transferred the secret treasure, he used three hundred pro-soldiers. As far as I know, there are only thirty-one Dark Eagles in each state, and there are only one hundred and fifty-five people in Mizhou and the four surrounding states, even if you add the thirty people mobilized from Jiangnan, it is only one hundred and eighty-five people, can these people transport all the secret treasures? ”

Lu Lao said: "The prince doesn't know, according to Jiang Huan's confession, the three hundred pro-soldiers of King Lu at that time were divided into three batches, each batch of 100 people, and each escorted a part of the treasures. Jiang Da belonged to the first batch, and after throwing the treasure into a certain place in the lake at the request of King Lu's henchmen, he returned to Mizhou. He didn't know where the other two parts of the pro-army hid the treasures, only that they were near Maling Lake, or thrown into the lake, or buried somewhere, and the specific location was only known to the henchman, but unfortunately, whether the henchman was dead or alive, and what happened to him, Jiang Da didn't know, and he never heard from that person. ”
