Chapter 963: Goodbye Yuan Tianling
"Is there such a thing?" Ji Ming looked surprised.
Lu Sheng looked at Ji Ming's expression, and it didn't look like a fake. Maybe there are other reasons why Zhuge is being killed.
"Mr. Yuan, I happened to meet you again, I have something to ask you. β
"Lord Lu, please speak. β
"Back then, Hao Jian Mountain's sealing of immeasurable demonic qi was done by the previous generation of Primordial Cave Heavenly Cave Masters?"
"Yes, but it's just the Primordial Cave Heaven, it was originally the cooperation of the Five Holy Lands. Yuan Tianling's face showed a look of doubt, "Lord Lu, didn't the seal of Chuzhou break many years ago?"
"It's broken, but has Mr. Yuan ever heard of the Eternals?"
"I've only heard of the Eternal Gods, is the Eternal Race related to the Eternal Gods? I'm sorry, I never knew about the Eternal Race in the nearly 20,000 years of inheritance of the Primordial Cave Heaven. Lord Lu, has something happened recently?"
"The recent big event is very big!" Regarding this matter, Lu Sheng still had some hesitation, whether to tell Yuan Tianling. Tell it, this Yuan Tianling disappeared at a critical moment, and ran out again when it was over. In the name of a holy place, he focuses on soy sauce.
But don't tell it, after all, this is the lord of the Holy Land, and his cultivation is not under the Ziyu real person. The next time you encounter a strong enemy, what if this person suddenly comes to his senses and comes to help?
Looking at Yuan Tianling's expectant expression, Lu Sheng felt ...... Let's talk about it.
"Two months ago, I stumbled upon the next plan of the Immortal Emperor, the Undead Scourge!"
"The undead natural disaster? Does the Emperor of the Underworld want to turn the world into a ghost? Impossible, the underworld and the human world are the laws of the world that are upside down, it is impossible for the undead to appear in the human world, and the Emperor of the Underworld cannot set foot in the human world for half a step. There are rules of heaven, and it is absolutely difficult for him to do it. β
"It's a matter of people, they all say that the Emperor of the Underworld can't set foot in the world, and he can't meddle in the affairs of the world, but over the years, the number of times the Emperor of the Underworld has made a few moves?
And this undead catastrophe planned by the Hades Emperor is related to the Eternals. And the Eternals are also related to the Well of the Sealed Demons back then. β
"Oh?" Yuan Tianling's eyes became solemn, "I can't imagine that such a big thing has happened to me in this five-year retreat?"
"Mr. Yuan has been in retreat for the past five years?" Lu Sheng asked casually curiously.
"Alas...... No way, before, I only had to retreat once in 50 years, but now, I need to retreat once every five years, and when the manpower is poor, the destiny cannot be changed. I won't talk about these complaints, Lord Lu will talk about the undead natural disaster eternal clan. β
"The Eternals, in fact, are zombies. The Emperor placed the corpse in the Well of Sealed Demons, and used the immeasurable demonic energy of the sealed to resurrect the corpse as a zombie through an altar ritual.
This is the Eternals. The Eternals feed on blood, and mortals who are bitten or scratched by them will also turn into zombies in a short time. One to ten, ten to hundred, this should be the plan of the undead natural disaster.
But what I can't be sure now is whether the corpse altar under the Demon Well was sealed into the demonic qi after it was laid out, or whether it was buried after the demonic qi was sealed.
If it is the former, then the five holy places of the year are not easy to explain. But if it's the latter, how can the Immortal Emperor bury the corpse without breaking the seal?"
Hearing this, Yuan Tianling's face changed violently. The former is impossible, and the latter is difficult to explain.
"There are four sealing wells between heaven and earth, in addition to the sealing place of Haojian Mountain a thousand years ago, there are also Qianye Lake in Liangzhou five thousand years ago, Tianyi Mountain in Jingzhou three thousand years ago and Emei Mountain in Shuzhou three thousand years ago, these sealing wells are of different ages, but they are all selected by multiple holy places, arranged, and sealed......
"Wait!" Lu Sheng suddenly interrupted Yuan Tianling's words, "You said Mount Emei three thousand years ago?"
"Yes, the seal of the Emei Golden Dome is almost the same period as that of the Heavenly Evil Mountain in Jingzhou. β
Lu Sheng had a relieved smile on his face, "It seems that the Hades Emperor buried the corpse after using the Demon Sealing Well." Because the ancestor zombie of Shuzhou has been removed by me, he was originally the body of the general Murong Cheng after the death of Dayu.
By the way, does Mr. Yuan know anything about the scriptures?"
"Inscription?"
"The underworld!"
Yuan Tianling pondered for a long time, "Since the Emperor of the Underworld could not set foot in the human world, the Immortal Text has completely disappeared. The one who has studied the scriptures the most deeply in the whole world is the Master. It's just that the master has become an immortal, and none of us can contact him......"
"Really, not even the Dao Court Xuanzong?"
"I'm afraid not. But there may be relevant records in the Sheji School Palace, why don't Lord Lu try their luck in the Sheji School Palace?"
"It's fine. β
"Lord Lu is going to the Sheji Academy, Yuan will be with you. This retreat has occasional gains, but I'm not sure if it's correct, I just went to the Sheji Academy Palace in the hope of borrowing the master's experience, Lord Lu shouldn't mind, right?"
"Naturally. Of course Lu Sheng wouldn't mind, it wasn't his things that he borrowed. If Yuan Tianling wanted to borrow the Infinite Heavenly Monument to take a look, then he had asked Lu Sheng's ...... first Forget it, just watch it, it's useless to watch it anyway.
"My lordβ"
Suddenly, there was a rush of shouting in the distance. Lu Sheng looked over, but saw Guo Mingyu running in stride. Sweating profusely, it was obvious that something was wrong.
"What's the matter?"
"Not long after the adults left, the subordinates went to Qin Tianjian, but found that Qin Tianjian was on fire, and the subordinates and others helped to extinguish the fire, and found out that the source of the fire was from the office of Lord Zhuge Zheng.
Almost all of the manuscripts inside have been burned, and we have brought back the remaining manuscripts for further investigation. β
"It's careless!" Lu Sheng suddenly let out a long sigh of remorse.
The murderer played a psychological war with Xuantian Mansion, picking on the timing when Zhuge Zheng had just come out of the Zongqin Mansion, so that Xuantian Mansion naturally suspected that it was because he went to the Zongqin Mansion that something happened.
Lu Sheng also came to the clan mansion to inquire without thinking much after learning about this clue. But in fact, the murderer just wanted to kill Zhuge Zheng, and it was the same wherever he came from.
"Your Excellency doesn't have to blame yourself, in fact, the fire in Qin Tianjian happened almost at the same time that Lord Zhuge was killed. Even if the adults are not misled, the murderer has already succeeded. β
"But a lot of evidence can be snatched back. Lu Sheng sighed, "Forget it, let's go, go back to Xuantian Mansion and have a look." β
Back at Xuantian Mansion, Lu Sheng went straight to the evidence room, where several female guards were collecting evidence. On the other side, Xuantian Mansion was also stepping up to inquire about the other officials of Qin Tianjian, who should at least know the reason why Zhuge was killed.
"My lord!" Seeing Lu Sheng come in, several female guards hurriedly stood up.
"Did you find anything?"
"Just these dozens of broken manuscripts, there are many techniques that we can't understand at all. Feel...... Lord Zhuge seemed to be calculating something. β
"Yes, all of these manuscripts are covered by the heavenly stems and the stars. Among them, this one is the most special. β
Lu Sheng took the half-burned picture, with a puzzled look on his face.
"Why?"
"The other manuscripts are messy and written in very random positions, but this one is very neatly copied. Although I don't understand what is written on it, it is certainly not something that is scribbled randomly.
In particular, the circle chart in the middle seems to be a yin and yang gossip roulette. But there are some differences. β
"Give it to me, I'll take it to Qin Tianjian and ask for it. β
Qin Tianjian is really a god stick in Lu Sheng's impression, because Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang, the two most famous god sticks in the Tang Dynasty in Lu Sheng's memory, are Qin Tianjian officials.
They are responsible for stargazing at night and deducing good fortune and evil. But Lu Sheng's perception is absolutely one-sided. Qin Tianjian is responsible for many tasks, weather forecasting, geographical survey, the formulation of solar terms, and the ordering of auspicious days of the zodiac.
Anyway, Qin Tianjian is a collection of natural science and metaphysics, and it is obviously a natural science with reasonable evidence, but he likes to apply metaphysics. Qin Tianjian can say what he says, believe it, and don't believe it.
It's definitely the last thing!
Especially two hundred years ago, Qin Tianjian was once glorious. At that time, Supervisor Qintian was supposed to be a master of predicting the weather, no matter where he went, as long as he was given three days, there was no possibility of rain in the future, and how much rain it would be, so that he could say that the score was exactly right.
But this person just wants to package himself as a magic stick, so that everyone thinks that this is the destiny of heaven, and the chosen one can predict so accurately. After his death, the part of predicting the weather returned to the pre-liberation period.
If he could accumulate the way of predicting the weather in a scientific way, and then later generations continued to improve and accumulate, by now, a simplified version of the weather forecast might have come out.
It's like the typhoon that happened to Suzhou when Lu Sheng just crossed. Where did the typhoon come as soon as it was said? It was all foretold a few days ago. And in the southern coastal areas, the old farmers can predict wind and rain.
If Qin Tianjian can monitor the meteorological changes in the whole country in a unified manner, even if there is a disaster in one place, other places can take precautions in advance. There will not be a storm and disaster sweeping all the way, wherever you go, where the disaster goes.
Anyway, since then, Qin Tianjian has almost become an ornament, reporting to the emperor to report auspiciousness, or there is a big event in the imperial court, Qin Tianjian plays the role of a god stick.
When Lu Sheng arrived at Qintianjian, Qintian's supervisor was being questioned by Xuantianfu, a dignified four-grade Beijing official, who was still submissive in front of several bronze medals Xuantianwei, it was really ...... Lu Sheng didn't know what to say.
"Lord Fujun!" the two questioning Xuan Tianwei saw Lu Sheng and hurriedly saluted.
And after Supervisor Qintian saw Lu Sheng, his momentum swayed like a candle in the wind, feeling that Lu Sheng was going to scare him, and he could directly faint to you.
"Qin Tianjian, Lord Qi. β
"Yes, the lower official is ......"
"Don't be nervous, Benjun is just a routine question. What position is Zhuge holding in the Qin Heavenly Prison?"
"Astrology...... Head of the House of Astrology. β
"And what exactly is he responsible for?"
"Observe the stars, survey the good and the bad, and so on. β
"He was killed today, his office was set on fire, how much do you know?"
"Xiaguan...... Xiaguan ......" Lord Qi's face suddenly turned pale, and beads of sweat continued to drip down.
"You don't know?"
"Your Excellency forgives your sins...... Xia Guan really didn't know. Zhuge Zheng is a more withdrawn person, reluctant to contact his colleagues, and he seems to be only interested in the stars, he said...... He often said that the stars in the sky are the heavenly horoscope, and whoever can penetrate the mystery of the stars can understand the rules of the operation of heaven and earth. Still...... He also said a lot of inconsequential things. We just think of him as an idiot, and over time, we don't want to deal with him. β
