On the second day of the second month of February, the day when the dragon raised its head.

The sky is blue, the sun is warm, there is not much snow on the road, and the weather in Beijing has already had a taste of early spring.

A brocade luxury car with eight royal horses, with more than a dozen brocade guards in front and behind, galloped on the northward avenue in the suburbs of Beijing.

Inside the car, Yongning felt a little sleepy with the bumps of the carriage.

The land is as flat as a mirror, and the mountains in the distance are still covered with white snow.

The scenery of the north is magnificent, and the south is full of beautiful rivers and mountains. God's creation makes people, which really complements each other.

Chu Liufeng, who was riding a horse and following aside, wondered what was the scenery of the characters outside the pass? I thought of Yang Xizhen and Wanyan Changsong again.

Near noon, the car has arrived at the foot of Tianshou Mountain, at a glance more than ten miles long halfway up the mountain, at the foot of the mountain, countless palaces with yellow roofs and red walls come into view.

Chu Liufeng was greatly amazed, this royal mausoleum is backed by Tianshou Mountain, facing the capital and the land of China, this feng shui, this momentum is incomparable.

Yongning got out of the carriage in front of Shinto and went to the Qingling Mausoleum of Emperor Zhu Changluo of Taichang to pay respects.

Kneeling in front of Zhu Changluo's tomb, Yongning looked sad, and the tears of grief and longing flowed down the thread.

Emperor Taichang Zhu Changluo died young, Yongning was only thirteen or fourteen years old at that time, how could the nostalgia for her father not break her heart.

The young mother said goodbye, and the young father lost his father, which is the heaviest knot for a child, Yongning's face has always had a desolation and sadness that other girls do not have, and it is also the way Chu Liufeng first met her in Jinling.

After paying tribute to Emperor Taichang, Yongning turned pale and walked out of Qingling heartbroken.

Chu Liufeng's mood was heavy, but it was an indescribable feeling.

The carriage walked a few miles of mountain roads and came to the Dingling Tomb of Yongning's grandfather, the old emperor of Wanli.

Dingling is large in scale, several times larger than the mausoleum of Emperor Zhu Changluo of Taichang, walk across the white marble bridge in front of the main gate, a huge stele pavilion stands under the blue sky, strangely, the stele is empty, not even a word.

Turn the stele pavilion, enter the inner city of the mausoleum, pass through the two courtyards, and arrive at the innermost Qi'en Palace, the tomb of Emperor Wanli is in the middle of the Qi'en Palace, and the eunuch on duty guides Yongning to incense, and kowtows.

Standing up, Yongning almost fell, his face pale and bloodless.

When the old eunuch on duty saw Yongning's appearance, he walked over and knelt down in small steps and said:

"The princess has been bumpy and tired all the way, is she feeling the wind and cold, or go to the right side hall to rest for a while, I will ask someone to bring refreshments."

Chu Liufeng nodded, and helped Yongning into the side hall on the right.

After a while, a few little eunuchs brought refreshments and lit a stove.

Yongning slept on the bed, her eyes closed, tears in the corners of her eyes, Chu Liufeng helped her cover the quilt and walked out.

In the middle of the side hall is a study, and several rows of bookshelves are covered with thick dust.

In the middle of the innermost row of bookshelves are the "Zizhi Tongjian" and "Historical Records", but on top is a set of "Lengyan Sutra".

Chu Liufeng took out one of the copies of the "Lengyan Sutra" and turned a few pages, all of which were incomprehensible in Sanskrit.

At this time, Chu Liufeng saw that there seemed to be a protruding copper cap between the bookshelf and the wall, and felt curious, so he took down two more scriptures, and wiped the place that looked like a copper hat with a handkerchief, which was indeed a copper cap inlaid in the place where the bookshelf and the inner wall intersected.

Chu Liufeng pressed the copper cap and didn't move, and added a little more strength to press it, the copper cap seemed to be a little loose, the internal force on the fingers increased a little, the copper cap slowly sank inside, and when he was about to lose sight of the copper cap, there was a squeak, and the bookshelf and the wall moved to the left at the same time.

Chu Liufeng was very surprised, two shiny golden doors appeared in front of him, each of the two golden doors is a pair of protruding Taiji diagram rings, the left door Taiji diagram is the mountains and rivers, and the right Taiji diagram is the stars.

Except for the two Taiji diagrams in the middle and upper parts, the rest of the Golden Gate is flat and smooth, and there is not even a doorknob.

Seeing that the Taiji diagrams of these two golden doors were very familiar, Chu Liufeng suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen these two Taiji diagrams in the master's study, and they were both mountains, rivers and stars.

Chu Liufeng pressed the mountains and rivers of the Taiji Diagram of the left gate and did not react, and then pressed the stars of the Taiji Diagram of the right gate, but there was no movement at all.

At this time, a flash of inspiration occurred in his mind, and he stood up and pressed down with both left and right hands at the same time, and the golden gate was opened instantly.

It was pitch black behind the Golden Gate, and by the light, it was possible to see a deep tunnel leading inside.

At this time, Yongning seemed to have fallen asleep and let out a soft snoring sound, so Chu Liufeng lit the fire fold he carried with him and walked in.

Chu Liufeng walked one or two hundred steps in the tunnel, the tunnel began to extend upward, and after walking for a while, there was already a faint light and gurgling sound in front of him, and the more he went inside, the brighter the light became.

At the end of the tunnel, a very large long dungeon is presented in front of you, the four walls of the dungeon and the ground are marble, there are more than a dozen night pearls hanging above the dungeon, there are flowing water in the four corners of the dungeon, the water does not know where it comes from, and it does not know where it flows.

On the wall is a drawing of the topography of mountains and rivers and intricate mountain roads, and below the wall are several rows of words.

"Ninety thousand miles of rivers and mountains in the Ming Dynasty, 20,000 people, the crisis in the Wanli Dynasty within 50 years, the Central Plains natural disasters and man-made disasters, the flow of the wind and clouds, the Jurchen Jin people from the northeast, like a flood is difficult to resist, the way of heaven cannot be violated.

I was guided by the world's masters to learn about the heavenly secrets, and the heavenly secrets must not be revealed.

Therefore, I will leave it to those who are destined to enter this room later, and I will entrust the people of the world with you, and if the internal strife arises, we will do our best to calm down, and if the external strife arises, we will take a defensive position.

If they can't hold it, they will retreat to the south of the Yangtze River, reject the northerners with the danger of the Yangtze River, and try to recover the rivers and mountains with half of the country.

The picture on the wall is a treasure map, located in the Wuling Mountains in the west of the Yangtze River, where there are enough gold, silver, wealth and iron.

Those who get this secret strictly guard the heavenly machine, keep in mind the mission, and when the world is in turmoil, you can convey this secret to the later princes and grandchildren, remember to remember.

September of the forty-second year of Wanli. ”

Chu Liufeng was terrified and shocked after reading the words on the wall.

It has been six or seven years since the death of Emperor Wanli, and according to the above time, this is almost fourteen or fifteen years ago.

Chu Liufeng found the pen, ink and paper left in the table, and copied the complicated mountain road diagram in his arms.

Afraid that Yongning would wake up, Chu Liufeng hurriedly walked outside the underground palace.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed in the corner, and when he saw that it was a gold lacquer brocade box, Chu Liufeng walked over and picked it up casually, and left the underground palace.

Walking out of the tunnel, I saw that Yongning was still sleeping soundly.

Chu Liufeng then returned to the bookshelf and tried to operate the two golden doors in the opposite direction, and the two golden doors really closed slowly, and the bookshelf and wall also returned to their original positions.

Chu Liufeng's heart couldn't calm down for a long time, could it be that the Celestial Empire was really going to sink?

Is everything a catastrophe?

This is the Heavenly Dao Cycle?

Suddenly, a low sound came, like an earthquake, like a mountain caving, and then it was louder, almost from the tunnel behind the bookshelf.

Yongning was awakened and called in a low voice, Chu Liufeng hurriedly walked to the bed inside, Yongning looked at him in fear, and tears were already overflowing from the corners of his eyes.
