Chapter 306: The Circle of Xudu
For Taoist spells, the Thirty-six Heavenly Gang Technique is an outline, whether it is now or in the future, Taoist Spell has not been able to get rid of the shadow of the Thirty-six Heavenly Gang Technique, and as a Taoist Spell Compendium, it is almost impossible to learn it in three months, we just understand a rough idea, and the rest will be slowly comprehended in the future.
For three months, I tried to return to this life, but I couldn't, I guess it was the stick that knocked me half to death, and with the old wounds from the past, I couldn't wake up in a short time.
After being delayed in Taozhi Mountain for so long, our harvest is not only spells, but also the friendship between us and Meng Po is closer, and the three of us have almost become friends who talk about everything, but Meng Po does not have many memories left, and there is no way to learn more about her past.
There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed, and we did not say goodbye to Meng Po when we left this time, she saw it early, and before we could say anything, she woke up from under the peach tree and looked at me and Liu Cheng, and said, "Are you leaving?" I'll send you off. ”
Liu Cheng and I nodded, we have been behind for three months in the affairs of the Yin Division and the Yang World, and we have been delaying it for three months.
The three of them walked together, Meng Po has been sending us to the Taozhi Mountain Palace, and then stopped to see me and Liu Cheng leave, this time to Yin Si is full of parting, when I came to Xuan Ji Xuanya separated, now I am separated from Meng Po.
Leaving Taozhi Mountain to go to Youdu, on the way I have already made a decision, I want to go to Taodu Mountain to find the two of them, these two are definitely Meng Po's old acquaintances, with them here to accompany Meng Po, she will not be so lonely.
Walking to the hidden capital, I saw that the territory around the hidden capital was at least three times larger than before, and the hidden capital was also named the city of vain death, with ghost soldiers stationed, and the hidden capital was full of wandering spirits and wild ghosts.
Beidi is no longer here, and we don't plan to go in, just passing by the hidden capital, and then heading towards the ghost gate, before we reach the ghost gate, I heard the ghost soldiers passing by say, "Mr. Zhang Heng said that the Beidi killed Xuan Ji and Xuanya and were locked up." ”
When we were in Taozhi Mountain, we already knew that the Northern Emperor went to the Yang World to invite Zhang Heng to the Yin Division, but at that time, I was busy learning spells, so I didn't care too much, but I didn't expect to come out of Taozhi Mountain and hear the news.
He stopped at the same time as Liu Cheng and asked in surprise, "Who to kill?" ”
The ghost soldier looked at me and Liu Cheng, and saw that we were also wearing the black robe of the ghost soldier, so he didn't suspect it, and said directly, "Xuanji Xuanya, it is the two women who assassinated the Northern Emperor three months ago, and the Northern Emperor moved the capital to take them with them, and stayed by his side to serve himself, which was deeply loved by the Northern Emperor, and these two women were also deeply loved by the current dignitaries of the capital, I don't know what Mr. Zhang Heng thought, and he actually asked the Northern Emperor to kill the two of them, isn't this asking for hardship." ”
Liu Cheng and I looked at each other, and I asked again, "What did Beidi decide?" ”
The ghost soldier said, "Mr. Zhang Heng said, women are not allowed to interfere in politics, although these two people have not done disobedient things, but they are good friends with important officials in the capital, not good kinds, listed the ten crimes of these two people, and submitted the excerpt with their real names, the Northern Emperor was furious when he saw the excerpt, and ordered Mr. Zhang Heng and the two women to be locked up, as if to investigate the origin of the two women, and I don't know what the result is. ”
I listened to it and my heart tightened, I didn't expect an accident to happen so soon, but it was Zhang Heng who was recommended by Zhao Wenhe, it seems that this Zhang Heng is indeed a talent, and asked, "So what did you find out?" ”
The ghost soldier shook his head, "We don't know about this, but a few days ago, someone from the capital city went to Bazibedu, and it seems that they found out that these two women had appeared in Bazibedu, if it is really found out that these two women have hidden their origins, I am afraid that they will not be able to live." ”
"What is the reason for the Northern Emperor to imprison Mr. Zhang Heng?"
The ghost soldier said, "This is not simple, those two women are deeply loved by the Northern Emperor, Mr. Zhang Heng bluntly said that the Northern Emperor killed them, how can the Northern Emperor not be angry, but he is a pity, maybe it is for the sake of Mr. Zhang Zhangheng is the person recommended by Mr. Zhao Wenhe, temporarily detain him, and deal with it after the investigation is clear." ”
These ghost soldiers still have something to do, so they just told us that and left.
Liu Chengben and I were about to get out of the ghost gate, but when we arrived at the pass, we stopped and changed direction.
"Go to the capital city!" I say.
The name of the current Yin Si Capital City has been changed, and this name will always be used in the future, the capital city is below the boundary of Henan, corresponding to the Central Plains of the Yang Dynasty, this trip is quite far, and it directly shows the Five Elements of the Great Escape Technique that we have not yet fully understood.
The Five Elements Great Escape has reached the highest depth, and we can travel freely between the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and we have not yet reached this point, but it is still possible to speed up the progress of our feet.
It would have taken more than ten days to get there, but it only took us one day and one night to arrive, and when we arrived outside the city, we were extremely shocked to look at the Yin capital city for thousands of years in the future.
Now that the city has become quite large-scale, there are not many wandering ghosts in the city, more of them are official ghost soldiers, even these few wandering ghosts and wild ghosts are also the people they selected from the vain death city and will join the ranks of the ghost soldiers of the Yin Si.
The two of us were already dressed as ghost soldiers, and entered the capital city unimpeded, and we didn't take a few steps into the city, so we felt that something was wrong, not a conspiracy, but a barren place full of yin energy, and there was a dense aura lingering.
Liu Cheng and I noticed this situation at the same time, and hurriedly went to the inside and outside of the city to find a place with water, and the contrast was even more astonishing, the water outside the city was filthy, but the water in the city was extremely clear.
Water quality represents feng shui, but also represents the luck of a place, and the feng shui of the capital city has even far exceeded the feng shui of Qingcheng Mountain.
This situation was too abnormal, so I went directly to the place where the ghost soldiers gathered next to me to chat, and after listening for a while, I joined their conversation, and finally led the topic to the issue of Feng Shui in the capital city.
After hearing this, the ghost soldier looked at me and Liu Cheng, "You just came?" ”
We nodded.
This is not a secret, the ghost soldier said bluntly, "This is set up by Mr. Zhang Heng, Mr. Zhang Heng first entered the Yin Division and found that the Yin Division was lacking in aura, and Zhengyi occupied the excellent Feng Shui Cave Heaven Blessed Land, in the long run, the development of the Yin Division must lag behind the Zhengyi, and it was laid out under the city of Xudu for a while, I don't know what the specific array is, I only know that during that time, Zhang Heng first went to the yang world to search for a large amount of mercury to come in, laid down this formation, with this formation, Even the Northern Emperor thinks that Yin Si's current development progress has surpassed that of Zhengyi by nearly ten years. ”
Seeing that Yin Si is now moving forward according to Zhao Wenhe's previous plan, it is smooth sailing, and I expected that if Yin Si wants to move the capital and complete the system of the dead city, it will take at least several years, and it will be completed in three months, which is really surprising.
After listening to the word mercury, I roughly guessed that this formation was not the first one laid by Zhang Heng, and there was also such a formation in Yingzheng's tomb.
There is such a passage recorded in the "Records of the First Emperor of Qin": Mercury is used as a hundred rivers and seas, and the machine is instilled, with astronomy and geography. With mermaid paste as a candle, it will never be extinguished.
The approximate meaning of this passage is that with mercury as a guide, imitating the mountains and rivers of the heavenly stems and the earth, and laying out a formation to absorb the energy of heaven and earth, so as to keep Qin Shi Huang immortal.
This is not a nonsense in the historical records, I have seen some records of the Criminal Division in later generations, and the Criminal Division went to inspect the tomb of Yingzheng and found that there is indeed a large amount of mercury in the tomb of Yingzheng, and the shape of the distribution of mercury is the topographic map of China.
In other words, Ying Zheng wants to absorb Huaxia energy in order to achieve his wish of immortality.
As for whether this formation is real, I didn't dare to be sure before, after all, even the Criminal Division has never dared to open Yingzheng's tomb, so naturally I am not sure. But now I'm almost sure that such a formation really exists, and Zhang Heng's layout is such a formation.
After Liu Cheng and I went elsewhere, Liu Cheng was surprised and said, "Will Zhang Heng still set up a formation?" He is not a man of the Tao. ”
I said, "He invented the armillary sphere and the geodynamic sphere, and even the most outstanding feng shui masters in the world did not dare to talk about feng shui in front of him, so it is not surprising that he can lay out a formation." After speaking, he sighed, "I sent away a Zhao Wenhe, but an even more terrifying Zhang Heng came, I knew that I wouldn't have delayed it in Taozhi Mountain for a few months." ”
Liu Cheng thought for a while and said, "Don't care about this magic circle for now, your apprentice's life is important. ”
After that, I stopped aimlessly in Xudu City, and the ghost soldiers in Xudu City discussed the matter of the two of them and Zhang Heng the most, and now the entire Xudu City knows that Zhang Hengjin is going to kill Xuan Ji and Xuanya.
And the trend of public opinion in Xudu City is more on Zhang Heng's side, thinking that Xuan Ji and Xuan Ya will do bad things.
This can also be regarded as a common practice in China, the emperor has no skills, the mountains and rivers are broken, and men do not take responsibility, but try their best to push it on women, Su Daji is like this, Bao Xi is like this, and Yang Yuhuan is also like this.
After walking around the city, I probably understood what the situation was now.
Beidi didn't want to kill the two of them, but he thought that Zhang Heng was reasonable, so he locked up all three of them, wanting to find a way to protect Xuanji Xuanya and Zhang Heng.
As for public opinion, the ghost soldiers of the capital city are on Zhang Heng's side, and the important officials of the capital city are more inclined to stand on the side of Xuan Ji Xuanya. It seems that these two girls did implement the steps I told them, and had a good relationship with the people that Beidi liked.
When I stopped, Liu Chengcai asked me, "Senior brother, you have been gone for a day, have you thought of a good countermeasure?" ”
I smiled and said, "They will be fine, Beidi is reluctant to kill them both." After that, he looked in the direction of the main hall in the city, "But I can take this opportunity to break down Zhang Heng, this person is the same as Zhao Wenhe, and he can't stay." ”
