Ryuichi continued: "Tens of thousands of years later, I suddenly had an inspiration. A wisp of ghost drilled out of the carved dragon altar, out of the Eight Dragon Mound, and floated everywhere on the land.

"Only then did I know that the East Coast had been filled in and moved eastward for more than a thousand miles, and that there were humans everywhere. The place where we were buried was under the jurisdiction of the state of Thornjin, and villages were established all around.

"On the east side of Jianjin Prefecture, there is a north-south Qingliang River, and the Qingliang River divides into east and west tributaries in the area of Jianjin Prefecture." Long Yi continued: "The eight carved dragon altars that were buried in the west branch of the Qingliang River and the southeast corner of Daxu Village were buried on the sand and soil hills.

"This mound is as high as the river embankment, and it is thirty or forty acres in size. There are four lower and one higher mounds scattered around the mound, resembling a crawling turtle. It is known as the turtle land, and it is also the cemetery in Daxu Village. ”

Qi Xiaoting on the side was stunned when she heard it: eight carved dragon altars, Qingliangjiang West tributary, Daxu Village...... Isn't this the "Legend of the Eight Dragons, the Urn, the Purple Dragon, the Liuchang and the Garden" that I interviewed? Could it be that this Long Yi is really one of the eight dragons in the Eight Dragons Altar?

Ah, I crossed over to interview the Eight Dragons Altar, but I crossed over to the stone dragon in the Eight Dragons Altar - no, it should be said that it was the divine dragon - now! No wonder Lotus said that she only knew one thing, but didn't know the other. I only know the eight carved dragon altars buried in the Eight Dragon Tombs, I don't know where they went after they were smashed, and what is the situation now?

After a long time, the Eight Dragons Altar has already had a stone dragon cultivation incarnation, and drilled out of the Eight Dragon Tomb to the land!

It seems that there is a lot to be done in the Eight Dragons Altar!

Qi Xiaoting listened to it with excitement, and she couldn't care about the pain in her body, so she listened carefully with her ears shut, lest she lose something!

I only heard Long Yi say again:

"One day, I was walking around the Eight Dragon Tomb where we were buried, when suddenly the fragrant wind gusted, and a team of heavenly soldiers and generals, dozens of palace maids, and a sedan chair carried by sixteen people flew in the air.

"One day the general knelt in front of me and kept asking me to sit in the sedan chair, saying that he was sending me to the throne.

"Because my father told us to sit in the emperor's house, I believed it and happily sat in a sedan chair, and they carried it away.

"The sedan chair was very bumpy, and I quickly fell asleep in it. By the time I opened my eyes, I had become a newborn baby.

"The family that gave birth to me is surnamed Cao, and they are called Cao Caizhu. I live in Daxu Village. Long Yi continued: "The wife of the rich man Cao, Liu, gave birth to three sons in a row, and all of them died. Due to excessive grief, it has not been more than ten years since she had children.

At the age of forty-nine, Liu suddenly had joy again. In October, Liu's dream fell into her arms, and she woke up and gave birth to a boy. When it landed, the house was full of red brilliance, and the fragrance was fragrant. Needless to say, this baby is me.

"The rich man Cao has half a hundred sons, and he is happy. I felt a little heretical, so I was named Cao Gen, and my name was Tietou. According to local customs, a small red flag made of red cloth was planted at the gate, praying that I would grow up like an iron head and inherit the Caomen lineage.

"I know that this is fate, if you want to become the emperor of the world, you must grow up day by day according to the laws of nature. You must be an adult, at least after the age of Huangkou, to be able to speak well, and then you can plan for development. I patiently sucked ~ allowed my mother's ~ milk and let myself grow up day by day.

"When I was seven or eight months old, my father, the rich man Cao, was playing on the street with me, and a group of old men came up, and I picked up my ears and heard that the eight dragon mounds where our eight dragons were buried were dug up by Zhu Di, the Yongle Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and his military advisor Liu Bowen, and the eight carved dragon altars were also smashed."

When Long Yi said this, his voice was a little astringent, and his expression was also painful.

"Oh?" The expression of the great god of vertical and horizontal also became serious: "What's the matter?" Tell me about it from the beginning. ”

Long Yi said with a heavy heart: "It turns out that this is the early year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty. In order to show his ambitions, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, decided to leave Nanjing and build another capital in the north and south. So he came to the north with the military advisor Liu Bowen to choose the terrain.

"Before leaving, Liu Bowen said to King Yan: 'The vast northern country, the land is long and wide, and if you want to build a new capital, you must have the three elements of time, place, and people. It is easy to grasp the favorable time and place, which makes people's hearts unpredictable. Your Majesty and not the capital with imperial arrows? ’

"'Can the arrows measure the desires of people?' King Yan asked puzzled.

"'Why not!' Liu Bowen said, "Before setting off, shoot a royal arrow, and let the imperial arrow choose the terrain first." The arrow goes fast, the people go slowly, and when the people and horses arrive, if the arrow is still there, it means that the people in that place are friendly, and if they don't pick up or rob, they can set the capital. Otherwise, it can't. ’

When the king heard this, he was very pleased, and hurriedly took his bow and arrow, and pulled it hard, and the arrow was like an inspired kingfisher, fluttering and flying towards the north.

"The first arrow fell on the fruit village thirty miles south of the city of Jianjin Prefecture. After King Yan's soldiers and horses arrived, they saw that the arrow was stuck in the ground without moving, which was the first to occupy a person.

"Looking at the time and place, although there are no dangerous peaks that fall into the sky and rivers that pour thousands of miles, the climate is warm in winter and cool in summer. The orchard in the fertile field of Pingchuan hides sand dunes, the flowers and leaves send flowing water, the forest is lush and the grain is abundant, and the feng shui is a dragon vein. I dug up a shovel of soil and put it down again, but it didn't put it down.

"Liu Bowen said: 'Your Majesty, although the people here are good and the life is rich, but there are seven points of sedan chair and three points of sedan chair, after the establishment of the capital here, there are more people who sit in sedan chairs, how can you do without a sedan chair? I think we'd better choose another place!'

So, he asked King Yan to shoot an arrow. This second arrow landed on a temple more than forty miles northeast of Jianjin Prefecture, where I was killed.

The temple is called Chongjiao Temple, which is located on the east bank of the Huijiang estuary, a tributary of the Great Qing River. The scale is not small, and it is very patterned. Sitting in the north and facing south, it covers an area of several acres. The west of the temple is the bank of the river, and the pear trees are widely planted, and a forest belt is about ten miles long. There is a meditation hall in the east of the temple. In front of the temple is about the emperor's temple. There are three main halls in the temple, which are arranged vertically from north to south. The whole temple is majestic and magnificent.

"There is an Elder Baiyun in the temple who lives in it with three apprentices. This Elder Baiyun was originally a wandering monk who knew astronomy and geography. Seeing that this area has good feng shui and dragon veins, he settled in this temple.

"One night, Elder Bai Yun was meditating in the monastery, and suddenly saw a star in the southwest overhead, shining directly on the sand and soil hill in the center of the western tributary of the Qingliang River."

Speaking of this, Long Yi smiled: "Hehe, this star is naturally talking about me." ”

Vertical and horizontal gods: "That's it! A divine dragon is reborn in the world, and it is strange if there is no omen! What happened? Say it quickly. ”

Long Yi continued: "Elder Baiyun watched the stars at night, and knew that the Great Sage and Great Sage had been born in Daxu Village. The next morning, I went to the village to visit. Seeing a small red cloth flag planted at the gate of Cao's rich man's house, he knew that a baby boy was born in this family.

"When I asked about the time of birth, it coincided with last night's starry day. I secretly thought in my heart: After waiting for this child for 100 days, I will come to do Buddhist things, accept this child as a lay disciple, and train him well, so that he will become a saint and a wise man for the country and the people. After thinking about it, he folded his palms and recited 'Amitabha' a few times, and happily returned to the temple.

"When I walked to the gate of the temple, I saw an arrow stuck there, and the name of King Yan was engraved on the hilt of the sword. Elder Baiyun's heart opened his thoughts—

"It turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang was born with a swollen belly, and he didn't eat ~ milk or cry for three days. The parents panicked, so they went to the temple to make a wish, gave up their lives to Zhu Yuanzhang, and worshiped a monk named Gao Bin as a teacher.

"It's strange to say, I still wish to come back, Zhu Yuanzhang will cry and scream, and he will eat ~ milk. Therefore, after Zhu Yuanzhang grew up, he had an inexplicable awe and superstition for Buddhism.

After his parents, brother and sister-in-law starved to death, he became a child and became Gao Bin's apprentice. How could he not die, and he was bent on 'learning the literary and martial arts, and killing the Tartars on August 15th.' When the master saw that he was eager to gain fame, he asked him to return to the world.

Before returning to the world, he made a wish in front of the big Buddha statue and said that if he did the country, he must rebuild temples all over the world. After becoming the emperor, he issued several holy decrees one after another, requiring all counties to repair old temples and build new temples. For a time, the monastery was sealed into a forbidden place, and the monk was lifted to heaven.

This Chongjiao Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty at the beginning, to the end of the Song Dynasty, it was already dilapidated, and in the early years of Hongwu, it was rebuilt under the will of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. Because all the monks had benefited from him, after his death, he offered his statue in the second hall.

"When King Yan swept the north, he killed a sea of people, and the people hated King Yan so much. The monks looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's public morality and stayed away from him.

"Elder Baiyun is no exception, seeing that there is an imperial arrow here, he told his apprentice to take care of it, and he went to the field to wander around.

"Let's talk about King Yan and his entourage, follow the direction indicated by the arrow and walk north. When they came to a land four or five miles away from Chongjiao Temple, King Yan pointed to the vertical and horizontal channels, and the lush lotus said to Liu Bowen, 'If I can build a capital here, I will build a royal garden here.' ’

Liu Bowen smiled: "Yes, the winding path of the pavilion, the lotus is beautiful. Your Majesty, the lotus here is beautiful, and the river is surprisingly straight! ’

With that, the two turned over and dismounted and stood on the east bank of the Daqing River. Liu Bowen pointed to the riverbed in front of him and said: "As the saying goes: three miles of straight rivers out of the emperor, two miles of straight rivers out of the mother." Your Majesty, you see that this river trough is straight, the water is deep and rapid, clear and turquoise, and it is the place where the dragon is entrenched. ’

"When the king of Yan saw this, he rejoiced, turned on his horse, and said, 'Go and find the arrow, and see if you can make the capital here?'

The group came to Chongjiao Temple and saw that the arrow was still inserted there. King Yan was happy. Liu Bowen dug up a shovel of soil, put it down, and there were more people who came out than in Guocun - there are richer here, those who only sit in a sedan chair, and those who do not carry a sedan chair.

"King Yan was deflated when he saw it, and said, 'Let's go back to Guo Village, that place is so good that there are still three points to carry the sedan chair!' ……”
