Chapter 1 Summer Palace

Longmen Mansion is the capital of the first state in the world, with a vast territory, even more than the 800-mile Dongting, and it is the largest mansion in the world.

Eight hundred miles north from the Longmen Fucheng City, there is a Beimang County, which is not too far from the Beibi Mountain of the 32 peaks, so the mountains here are undulating, it is not a plain scene, coupled with the remoteness of the place, there are few outsiders to come on weekdays, but recently it has suddenly become lively, because of the "Taiyin corpse" thing, attracting people from all walks of life to come, breaking the tranquility here.

At this time, an old Taoist came from south to north, from Shi'an County to Beimang County through Hongnong County, and then entered the boundary of Beibi Mountain through Beimang County.

The old Taoist looks like he has the age of the sixtieth birthday, his hair is gray, he is dressed in a white-washed robe, and his feet are a pair of flat-toed cloth shoes that are worn out, compared with the Taoist who is in the body of the crane and the cloud, it is really a world of difference, but the Taoist still carries a copper coin sword behind his back, but it is in excellent condition, it is made of seven hundred and forty-nine copper coins, the rope is woven with gold and silver wire, and the money is the five baht money during the period of Emperor Wu. Money flows through the hands of 10,000 people in the world, so the yang energy is the heaviest, the more ancient money is the more so, so this copper coin sword is specially used to drive away evil spirits and ghosts.

In addition, the old Taoist also carried a shabby cloth bag cross-legged, and an old copper bell was pinned to his waist, but as the old Taoist walked forward, the copper bell did not make any sound, as if it was a "dumbbell".

The old man suddenly stopped, looked at the undulating mountains in the distance, and muttered: "There is a cloud in the "Dragon Shaking Sutra": 'Looking for the dragon must be seen in the winding mountain, a heavy entanglement is a heavy pass, if there are a thousand locks in the closed door, there must be a prince living here. Such a heavy yin qi is worthy of being known as the Beibi Mountain, which accounts for half of the emperor's tombs in the world, but there is evil qi hidden in the yin qi, and it seems that the rumors of the Taiyin corpse are not groundless. ”

As he spoke, the old man took out a compass from his cloth pocket, stared at the compass and walked away, and at the same time recited the words in his mouth: "The mountain shape is on the ground, the stars are in the sky, and the stars are blessed with misfortune." The true star suddenly took on its true form, and the branches and leaves were all broken. Although the true star cloud has three auspicious clouds, there are auxiliary bi in addition to the three auspicious. I don't know that Sanji is not born often, and there is no reality in a hundred places. Walking the flag and trailing the tail is the true form, if the star shape is deformed......"

After walking for more than an hour, the old man stopped suddenly, at this time he had come to the halfway point of an unknown barren mountain, after he looked around, his face showed a solemn look, and said: "It's not corpse qi, but ghost qi, could it be that this is not the place where the Taiyin corpse was born, but another powerful ghost and murderous thing is entrenched?"

Thinking of this, the old Taoist couldn't help showing a helpless look on his face, "Although the old Taoist makes a living by catching ghosts, and he has done some good deeds on weekdays, but the money he gave to the mansion of the political envoy to exorcise ghosts last time has not been settled, and it is also angry to say, 'Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver.' 'It's all a state domain, it's still so stingy, let Lao Dao pay more than a dozen runes in vain, although these rune papers are written by Lao Dao himself, but yellow paper and cinnabar also cost money, you deserve to be bullied by a few eunuchs of the Weaving Bureau, who can you blame?"

The old Taoist was like a woman in the market, chattering and saying words that were destined to be listened to, and continued to go deeper, going around and around, and walking out of the mountain road for dozens of miles. At this time, the old Taoist can already faintly perceive the faint yin qi in the wind, the ground under his feet, and even the trees and flowers, but he has never been able to find the source of the yin qi, and the compass in his hand is not working at first, and the pointer often rotates wildly.

After walking out about three miles or so, a dense forest suddenly appeared, in this late autumn season, this forest is lush, much more lush than the ordinary forest in summer, the branches and leaves are dark green and almost black, some seeping, the huge canopy shades the sun, coupled with the faint mist diffused in the forest, it actually makes the forest pitch black, as if it is late at night, and there seems to be a shadow and swaying, which makes people feel afraid.

The old Taoist stopped outside the forest, Rao was used to seeing all kinds of strange scenes, and at this time, beads of sweat were slightly oozing from his forehead.

Xuannuzong has a very famous saying, called: "Young Yin enters Old Yin, Old Yin gives birth to Young Yang, Young Yang turns into Jade Yang, and Jade Yang returns to Jade Yin." In the final analysis, it is also the yin and yang yang, the human body is yang, the soul is yin, and the soul is out of the body for the yin god.

In the same way, yin is the most yin thing, plants and trees are born to the yang, except for several ghost trees such as acacia and willow, the two are not compatible, if the yin can affect the plants and trees, so that they turn from yang to yin, then it means that the yin is extremely strong, and has begun to turn from yin to yang, most of which will give birth to fierce things.

Just when the old Taoist hesitated, the sky suddenly darkened, and then there were dripping raindrops falling, a moment later, more and more raindrops, the rain was continuous, although it was not big, but it made the yin and cold in the mountains much heavier.

How can the old Taoist not know that gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and that the earth is the mean, that wood and fire belong to yang, and that water and metal are yin, and that now that it is raining, doesn't it just boost the yin qi? Besides, this rain is also strange, and it is difficult to say that there is nothing strange about it.

After thinking for a while, the old Taoist said to himself: "Even if you have been to the Ghost King Mausoleum back then, are you still afraid that your small 'ghost forest' will not succeed?" He gritted his teeth and walked straight to the forest.

Into the forest, because of the dense canopy, but can not feel the rain falling, but what comes is the miasma born after the decay of the fallen leaves, but the old Taoist has already prepared, while holding his breath and concentrating at the same time, he took out a "broken miasma" from his sleeve, twisted his fingers, and read the words. Then I saw that this talisman seal burned on its own, but it did not hurt the two fingers of the Taoist, and then I heard a muffled sound of "bang", as if it was the sound of pulling out the wine gourd cork, and the surrounding miasma dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The old Taoist waved his hand, scattered the ashes between his fingers, and then walked along a winding path in the woods to the depths of the woods.

This trail was built by someone and paved with bluestone slabs, but because no one has stepped on it for too many years, the road surface has been covered with moss, and walking on it is inevitably a little slippery.

After walking about 100 steps, this bluestone trail came to an abrupt end and became a veritable dead-end road, that is, a dead end.

The old Taoist stopped, looked around, and saw a half-hidden dilapidated stone tablet in a field of weeds. The stele has been some years, half of the body is buried in the ground, and the old Taoist stepped forward to remove the weeds, revealing a half word, and the handwriting is blood red.

The reason why I say it is a half-word is because half of the word is buried in the mud, but the two words that are exposed can also be recognized: "avoid" and "summer".

Together, it is the word "summer escape".

The old Taoist looked at these two words and fell into deep thought.

At that time, the Empress of the Ming Sky had built a summer palace in the Beibi Mountain generation, and there were three Taoist temples around, namely: Shangqing Palace, Zhongqing Palace, Xiaqing Palace, at that time, Beibi Mountain was not as yin as it is today, every Double Ninth Festival, there is an endless stream of tourists in the Beibei, known as "the human settlement is not relieved of the sorrows, please temporarily travel to the north." The allusion of the mountain, the evening view of the mountain is known as one of the eight scenes, whenever the sun sets, the lights of ten thousand homes, like the stars in the sky, Dengfu looks far away, the victory of Yiluo Erchuan, take in the bottom of the eye.

However, when the Golden Horde captured half of the rivers and mountains of the former Jin Dynasty, this palace and several palaces had been destroyed in the war, and the Soap Pavilion Sect took advantage of the situation to build a large array in the Beibi Mountain, attracting thousands of ghosts into the Beibi, and raising countless corpse soldiers and ghosts, making the Beibi Mountain, a good feng shui treasure land, become a gloomy ghost domain with heavy yin energy, and there will be no tourists to come here, and several lucky remnants of the palace have been abandoned one after another.

Thinking of this, Lao Dao stepped on the gang, stretched out his hand to press the top of the stele, ran the gas machine up, and shouted, "Get up." ”

A loud rumbling sound suddenly erupted from the otherwise silent forest.

As the stele slowly rose upward, the fog of the entire dense forest also dissipated, and countless trees retreated to both sides, revealing a continuous palace, which was more than the prince's mansion in terms of scale, but at this time it was dilapidated, dark and silent, and there was no half of the popularity.

The stele had completely risen to the ground at this time, and the words "Summer Palace" were written on it.
