The three of them made up their minds. If this trip to Lama goes well, they will help Xiahou Yun and Xiahou Xiang to stage an ambush in the ancient tomb when they are free, and become Li Tianwen's thief. After saying nothing during the day, the three of them got ready and set off in the evening to meet Xia Houyun and his grandson at the agreed place outside Xuanhu City.
After the five people gathered together, Xia Houyun wanted to take a look at the ridge behind Huguo Panlong Temple before the sun set. The grim-faced Taoist priest happily agreed. He was waiting to see the ability of Faqiu Tianguan to find the dragon's pulse. Without saying a word, we led the way ahead. When we arrived at the place, the sky had already turned a little dark, and the plains on both sides of the mountains were dim. Only the last bit of the setting sun was left, reflecting the incense of Hesi in the incense burner, slowly drifting into the dusk. .
Xia Houyun looked around with his hands behind his back, and the Taoist priest with a grimace asked curiously: "Senior Xia Houyun doesn't need a compass or other things to understand Feng Shui?"
Xia Houyun replied: "Of course we need to use the compass, but I'm ashamed to say it. I only have a rough understanding of the feng shui of stars. As for distinguishing mountains and rivers, I am not good at it. Even taking out a compass is of no use. But the mountains and rivers here The veins are indeed as expected by the Taoist priest. It is a dragon that robs the waist. The Protector of the Country Panlong Temple below is also a victory-defying match. However, the Taoist priest only saw half of the treasure cave of the 'Dragon Claw Panzhu'. There is a significant other, not only you, but even Tuoba Tao may not have discovered it."
"Oh? Senior, please give me some advice." The grimace Taoist knows that Yuan Liang in this big sect speaks with a bit of humility. He said that he is not good at distinguishing mountains and rivers. That is relative to himself, compared to most mushrooms. Men Laohai must be much stronger. Just like Prime Minister Zhuge of the Shu Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms, he is the best in the world in terms of military ability in preparing troops. However, the shortcomings of his cunning plan are only inferior to his ability to govern the army. This is the battle of Lucheng, and the danger is no less than Han Xin's last-ditch battle. If Xia Houyun can say that even Tuoba Tao didn't notice it, his ability in identifying acupoints on the mountain must be better than that of Sima Yi himself. .
Xia Houyun nodded and said: "The dragon claw beads in Feng Shui are also called 'Wolong Burial'. It is indeed a treasure cave of great wealth. There is no problem in using it to bury people. But Taoist Master, you see, the ridge under our feet is not only There is only a branch branch to the south, and there is also a faint branch to the north. There is a dragon stem in the middle. So this Wolong burial cannot be built in a single cave. The two legs must be connected to the dragon stem to ensure the smooth flow of dragon energy. , it’s called ‘Guanshan Mausoleum’.”
"Senior, are you saying that in addition to the ancient tomb on the back hill of Panlong Temple, there is also a tomb connected to it in Beishan?"
"The Taoist priest has almost guessed it, but according to Lao Cao's observation, there should be a mother tomb inside the mountain. There are three tombs in total. The tomb on the two dragon legs is the accompanying tomb, and the real owner is in the dragon trunk at our feet."
As soon as Xia Houyun said this, the four people, including the Taoist priest with a grimace, couldn't help but look at their feet. Although the mountain they were on was not high, it was nearly forty or fifty feet long and more than several miles wide. If there was anything here This tomb is also connected to the other two accompanying tombs on the ridge, and its scale is far beyond expectations. No wonder Xia Houyun said that this tomb was not simple when he was at the inn. It turned out that he had already had some idea in his mind.
Luo Laoqi looked at the hillside below him with golden light in his eyes, and said: "Three tombs?! Then he won't get rich! Let's not be stunned. Let's start early. If we get in late, the baby will be choked and can be moved. over."
"Don't be impatient, Luo Baotou." Xia Houyun said with a smile: "It's not dark yet, so it's not safe to do anything at this time."
"Oh, this is really annoying. So what should we do now? How about we discuss whether we should do the big one first or the small one first."
"I am also planning to discuss this matter with you, Taoist Master." Xia Houyun turned to look at the Taoist Priest with a grimace and said, "I have a merciless request. Regarding the location of the fight at night, can we change it?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace nodded and replied: "After what the senior said just now, the poor Taoist also feels that it is not safe to enter the battle from the back mountain of Panlong Temple to protect the country. Although the door there has been explored, Li Tianwen is also very likely to We will start from there. If he discovers a way to make money (theft hole), according to that guy's nature, it will be difficult to ambush him then."
"Thank you, Taoist Priest, for your understanding. That's exactly what I mean."
"Senior's ability to break Feng Shui is far better than mine. Since this road is blocked, where do you think it is more appropriate to enter the fight?"
"The old man said before that even Tuoba Tao might not have understood the Feng Shui pattern of this place, because if he found out that this was a mausoleum, it would be impossible to set up the victory-defying situation of Panlong Temple to protect the country. If he wanted to achieve the goal of using Buddhism The purpose of Weisheng Dragon Vein is to build a pagoda near Beiling to connect the Buddhist Yang Fire. However, I did not see any man-made buildings up and down Beiling, which means that the pattern of the mountains to the north is very complicated. It’s hard to be noticed. Wouldn’t it be much safer if we entered the battle from the tomb over there?”
The grimace Taoist priest did not answer. After thinking for a moment, he asked: "Senior Xiahou, has he ever dealt with that Li Tianwen?"
Xia Houyun shook his head: "Does the Taoist priest have other ideas?"
The Taoist Priest with a grimace replied: "Li Tianwen is cunning and cunning, his methods are vicious, and his behavior is often unexpected. He is no different from a hairless monkey spirit. Now he also has the imperial court's Juezi Camp sign in hand, so there is no guarantee that he will not attract some Feng Shui." With the master by his side, once he discovers the details of this place, based on his personality, Pindao feels that he will probably choose this safest path."
"this…"
Luo Laoqi became a little impatient when he heard this, and said: "You two have spent half a day together, and this won't work, and that won't work. Just don't touch the fish for now. If you block the grandson on the road, you will kill him!"
"Lao Qi, don't be impatient all the time." He Siniang pulled Luo Lao Qi's sleeve and comforted him: "We must act carefully. You have to believe that the Taoist priest and senior Xia Hou can come up with a perfect solution."
"There are ways to do it. The accompanying tombs at both ends won't work. We can start with the main tomb. This tomb is hidden deep in the mountain. It must be buried very deep. Li Tianwen has the emperor's life, so he will definitely not choose the most time-consuming route. Let's go directly How could Li Tianwen imagine that he could bloom in the center and then move it from the bucket to the tombs on both sides without leaving any traces on the outside? "What do you think?"
"The Taoist priest's idea is fine, but we may not be able to enter the main tomb." Xia Houyun said: "From what I can see, the main tomb in the mountain is mostly a cliff cave tomb. This kind of tomb is extremely strong and ordinary. Under such circumstances, if there were other paths, no one would think of taking direct action against it. Unless there were a large number of people like the Xiling warriors, they would not even be able to pull out the sealing stone in the tomb passage. Such a strong tomb , it’s a bit difficult to handle it with just the five of us.”
"Pindao has also considered this matter. I wonder if my seniors have discovered the characteristics of the mountains around Xuanhu City. These mountains may be close to the Yellow River, so the rocks are all made of coarse-grained sand and slate, like the roads in Panlong Temple of the Protector of the Country. The slate materials are all made of this kind of sand slate. This kind of sand slate has a disadvantage, that is, the stone is light and loose, and it is not suitable to be processed into stones with an area that is too large. It is easy to crack and break. We discovered this problem on the road inside Panlong Temple. Many roads have cracked. So Pindao can infer that the sealing stones in the tomb passage should not be too big. After all, the stone material is limited. If the prediction is good, based on what we have now With more manpower, maybe we can give it a try.”
A look of admiration appeared in Xia Houyun's eyes when he was halfway through listening. When the grim-faced Taoist priest finished speaking, he quickly praised: "The new generation is really better than the old ones. The Taoist Master can really afford the word 'immortal family's Taibao' with his thoughts." , in time it will be great, Xiang'er, you have to learn from others."
"Senior, please don't rush to praise Pindao. This is all Pindao's random speculation. If we really want to find the entrance to the tomb passage, we have to rely on your old skills."
"It's not difficult to find the tomb passage. Just wait until the stars and the moon shine together, and the old man can get up and take the hole. It's still early at this time, so you can rest and wait for a while."
"Then let's stay here for a while. It just so happens that Pindao still has some questions that he would like to ask Senior Xiahou."
"Taoist Master, please speak."
"Pindao wanted to hear the opinions of the seniors about the owner of this tomb. Pindao had guessed before that an ancestor of a certain Northern Wei royal family might be buried here, which is why they paid so much attention to it. But after thinking about it carefully, , the Northern Wei Dynasty captured Xuanhu City in the 28th year of Yuanjia. Before that, the Dongping County area had always been the land of the Liu Song Dynasty, but why did an ancient tomb from the Northern Wei Dynasty appear on the land of the Liu Song Dynasty?"
Xia Houyun thought for a while and replied: "I think the Taoist priest's guess is right. According to the style of the Hu people, they will never be frightened by the deadly black mist. They must not be able to offend the people buried in the tomb, but no It must be the Northern Wei royal family that they can't afford to offend, maybe it's an ancestor of the Northern Hu, I don't know for sure, the Taoist priest is well versed in history, he must know about the Sixteen Kingdoms at the end of the Jin Dynasty, right?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace nodded: "I only know that those are the many separatist regimes established successively in the Central Plains and Bashu areas, including the two Zhaos in the front and the back, the three Qin in the west and the west, the four Yans in the north and south, the five Liangs in the north, south and west, as well as Cheng, Xia Shiliu country."
"Exactly, but there were far more political powers at the end of the Jin Dynasty than that. The reason why we only talk about the Sixteen Kingdoms is because they were all established by the Hu people, also known as the 'Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms'. These regimes had different states and territories. They are different and change very frequently. Just in the Yanzhou area where Xuanhu City is located, there were successively the Later Zhao, Qian Yan, Later Yan, and Wei, which are now the four regimes of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Therefore, this place was under the jurisdiction of Liu Song. , is actually also ruled by barbarians.”
"I understand." The grim-faced Taoist priest understood clearly when he heard this. There are so-called Hu people who have lived near Xuanhu City for hundreds of years. For example, Hou Zhao is the Jieshi clan, former Yan Hou Yan is the Xianbei Murong clan, and Wei is the Xianbei Tuo clan. Before the Han Dynasty, the Ba family were all tribes on the grassland. They were intertwined with each other and were related to each other from time to time. It would be normal for the descendants to have some blood relations. If the person buried in this tomb is a Aren't the large Hu people an ancestor that most people can't afford to offend?
