In fact, ever since Ming Jinan told Shu Guan before his death that there was a big secret hidden in the Turtle and Snake Mountains, Shu Guan had always wanted to ask the Taiping Dingshi Bell if it knew the secret.
But later on, other things came one after another, and Shu Guan felt that this matter was not too urgent, so he kept delaying it.
It was not until today that Shu Guan discovered that the ultimate goal of the Black Dragon Society's series of actions in Jingcheng might be to blow up the Turtle and Snake Mountains, did he finally ask this question to Taiping Dingshi Zhong.
But at first, Shu Guan didn't have high hopes.
Because there is Shan Jing Guan on Guishan Mountain and Yue Lan Academy on Snake Mountain. Even the Alliance of Seven Immortals who built the temple site on these two mountains does not know what secrets there are in Guishan Mountain. So Taiping Dingshi Zhongda The probability should not be known.
However, Taiping Dingshizhong told him the answer.
And the following is what Taiping Dingshi Zhong told Shuguan through Xiaoyi:
The Turtle and Snake Mountains are actually not mountains.
They are two great demons from ten thousand years ago, one is Yuangui and the other is Black Snake.
Of course, these two were both great demons affiliated with Heaven.
Thousands of years ago, the Great China Kingdom was established with the support of the Heavenly Court. In order to make the Great China Kingdom last longer, the Heavenly Court specially selected nine gathering places within the initial territory of the Great China Kingdom. In the land of luck, send a big demon or use spiritual treasures to guard it to help the Great China suppress the luck.
This is the reason why the world was divided into nine continents at the beginning of the founding of the Great China Dynasty.
The nine great fortune places are divided into nine continents, connected and complementary to each other, forming a large formation spanning tens of thousands of miles, helping the Great China to gather its fortune.
As long as the formation formed by the connection of these nine places of great destiny is not seriously damaged, it is basically impossible for Dahua to subjugate.
Just like the rebellion of the Divine Monkey Army five thousand years ago, the Divine Monkey Army swept almost all the territories of the Great China Empire in the Eastern Continent. The Great China Empire was left with only a corner of the East China Sea. In such difficult times, In a desperate situation, Dahua still succeeded in restoring the country. There are many reasons for this, but it has a lot to do with the fact that its destiny was not destroyed and Dahua's national destiny still lasts. .
Even though the country may seem to be in decline and gloom for a while, as long as the Nine Lands of Destiny exist, the day will come when Great China will rise again and be revived.
And located in the heart of the Central Plains, Jingcheng, which was already a big city ten thousand years ago, is one of the nine places of great fortune in Dahua.
And those sent by Heaven to suppress the luck of this place are Yuan Gui and Xuan Snake, the two real great demons of the fairyland.
These two great demons were originally the attendant spirits of the Heavenly Emperor. They were ordered by the Heavenly Emperor to come to the human world and transformed into two mountains, a turtle and a snake. They stood on the bank of the river and locked the place with the force of the two mountains. The luck of the place will not flow eastward with the river and flow to other places.
In fact, the Taiping Dingshi Bell was originally refined for this reason, and was then given by Heaven to Dahua, who had regained his country after the rebellion of the Divine Monkey Army, to help him suppress his luck.
But compared to the effect that Turtle and Snake II can have, the Dingshi Zhong can only be regarded as a little brother who plays tricks on the side.
This is what Dingshi Zhong said about the Turtle and Snake Mountains through Xiaoyi.
After listening, Shu Guan couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Guishen Ershan is one of the most famous scenic spots in Jingcheng. There are countless tourists climbing the mountain every day.
Who would have thought that these two mountains are actually the bodies of two demon clans?
And for the past two years, I have actually been living on the back of a giant turtle?
As for when Ming Jin'an told him what was hidden in the Turtle and Snake Mountains, it was naturally the Feng Shui master who only had the Fetal Movement Realm. His Taoism was not enough to truly understand the secrets of these two mountains.
After knowing the truth, Shu Guan would inevitably feel a little strange in his heart.
But he didn't have much time to feel regretful at the moment.
Then Shuguan asked Dingshi Zhong through Xiaoyi some things about what it just said that made him somewhat puzzled.
"Since we have the protection of these nine places of luck, then why did the Great China fall in the end?"
"Is Dahua really dead? Aren't the owners of this land still Dahua? The great formation of luck will help the country but not the dynasty."
This is the answer given by Dingshi Zhong.
Shu Guan thought about it, and it was indeed this principle.
Although the Great China Kingdom has died, the Kingdom of Great China is still there!
Shu Guan originally wanted to ask why this fortune formation was protecting the Great China when the Divine Monkey Army was in chaos.
However, he immediately realized that the situation of the Monkey Army was special. It could not be said that they were rebels within the Chinese dynasty. It was hard to say whether they were even a "human" army.
"Now that Tianting is dead, why are the two great demons Yuangui Xuanshe still willing to guard here?"
This is Shu Guan’s second puzzling question.
"Those two great demons have actually been sleeping for tens of thousands of years and have never woken up. They probably don't even know that Heaven is dead."
The third question of Shu Guan is:
"How strong are these two great demons? Is it possible to kill them?"
"The two great demons Yuan Gui Xuan Snake were in the real realm of immortals at the beginning. They have been sleeping for ten thousand years. It can also be said that they have isolated the six senses and practiced in seclusion. If we talk about the realm, they may be higher than they were ten thousand years ago. , but the avenue between heaven and earth has become more and more illusory, and the power of magical powers has weakened a lot compared to ten thousand years ago, so if compared with itself, their strength is actually weaker."
"As for killing them, after all, the two great demons are both true immortals. How many immortal realms are there in the world now? Unless someone like the Seven Immortals of the Seven Immortals Alliance takes action, the two great demons must be completely killed. Demon, it’s almost impossible to do it.”
"Why doesn't even the Alliance of Seven Immortals know about such an important matter?"
This is the fourth question of Shu Guan.
Shanjiguan and Yuelan Academy are on the Turtle and Snake Mountains. If the Seven Immortals Alliance had known about these things, wouldn't it be good to help protect them in the past?
"The Seven Immortals naturally know this secret, but they didn't tell you. I guess the reason is that they don't want this secret to be known to too many people. If everyone knows about the Luck Formation, it will be easy. If it attracts some people’s unpredictable thoughts, it’s better to let the secret remain a secret.”
"Then why do you know so clearly?"
This is the last question of Shu Guan.
The Taiping Dingshi Bell is a magic weapon that was refined only five thousand years ago. It is not surprising that it knows some secrets about the fortune formation and the Turtle and Snake Mountains.
But after listening to the story of Dingshi Zhong just now, it seems that the weapon spirit of Dingshi Zhong knows too much and in detail.
For example, how does it know that the two great demons Yuan Gui Xuan She have been practicing in seclusion over the years?
"There are some things I can tell you, and there are some things I can't."
"Because it's related to the mission I was placed here."
This was Dingshi Zhong's final answer to Shu Guan.
After asking these things, Shu Guan finally began to tell Li Zhixia what happened after he returned to Shan Ji Guan, as well as the shocking secret about the Turtle and Snake Mountains that Dingshi Zhong had just told him.
Li Zhixia's face became more serious the more she listened.
…
Go back a few hours.
At that time, Master Miki had just called out the name Li Yan.
On Lion Slope, the rebels had just begun to attack Xu Pingxi's manor.
That night in Jingcheng, chaos had just begun.
In the Rising Sun Concession, in the courtyard of the Rising Sun Consulate in Jingcheng.
The courtyard is not big, with a cherry tree planted there, and a small pond with a rockery in it. There are several golden carp in the pond, and it is dotted with pebbles, white sand, and steps around it. It is full of the style of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun.
There were many small colored lanterns hanging under the eaves next to the courtyard. At this time, these small colored lanterns were all lit up, illuminating the entire courtyard as bright as day.
Under the cherry blossom tree, there was a girl wearing a kimono and more beautiful than the cherry blossoms, kneeling on a tatami.
There was a long low table in front of her. On the low table were a pen and inkstone and a thick paper book.
Next to the low table, there is an exquisite small stove with flames, and tea is boiling on the stove.
The beautiful girl, holding a brush in her hand, wrote a line of words on the last page of the book.
"Wuyin year, April 16th, three o'clock in the afternoon, break the formation of turtle and snake!"
Then, she slowly closed the book, raised her head, let out a crisp laugh, and said something to several other people in the courtyard.
"Gentlemen, today's event is accomplished. You will all become the heroes of the Land of the Rising Sun who will go down in history. In addition to the great rewards given by the Emperor and His Majesty the Emperor, you will definitely be able to enter the Dingoku Shrine in the future with your merits today. The citizens of the Rising Sun will worship and worship it forever, and the incense will flourish forever!"
In this quiet courtyard, almost no one else comes in except this beautiful girl whose pseudonym is Nakata Sakurako, but whose real name is the country of the rising sun.
At least this is what Shu Guan saw when he was monitoring here a few days ago.
But today, there were several other people in the courtyard.
One is a short but extremely strong middle-aged man with a cold face and sharp eyes. He is Takeo Nakata, the leader of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun in Jingcheng.
At this time, Takeo Nakata was also kneeling on a tatami at the entrance of the courtyard. Before that, he had lowered his head very respectfully and sat naked. It was not until the girl started to speak that he suddenly raised his head, his face full of emotions. The color of enthusiasm and excitement.
However, at this time, he was the only one in the courtyard who showed his enthusiasm and excitement so clearly.
In addition to Takeo Nakata, there were three other people in the courtyard.
One of them was lying sideways on the branches of the cherry blossom tree, resting his head on one hand and placing his elbow between the delicate petals of the cherry blossoms. He was holding a white bamboo fan in one hand, and his body was swaying slightly with the trembling of the petals.
This man was wearing the colorful traditional hunting clothes of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun, with a top and lower skirt. He looked about forty years old, but his skin was as delicate and delicate as that of a girl. His eyebrows were drawn and his face was covered with white powder, making it difficult to tell whether he was male or female.
There is another person sitting cross-legged on the rockery in the pool.
This is a man in his early fifties, wearing the warrior uniform of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun. He has a body shape with neat short hair that stands up like a steel needle. His shoulders are extremely broad, his neck is extremely thick, his arms are extremely thick, and his facial features are as sharp as a knife or an axe. So sharp, his whole body was filled with an explosive feeling of power.
On his knees, there was a tachi that was more than six feet long. The man's stable hands, as if made of copper and iron, were resting on the black scabbard of the tachi. He closed his eyes tightly. The breath is long, sitting still among the rugged stones, as if it is part of the rockery.
At this time, even if the girl said haha, the man with a face as strong as iron and an aura as strong as a mountain did not open his eyes.
In addition, there should be another person in this courtyard.
The reason why I say "should" is because there seems to be a figure standing under the eaves next to the courtyard, but even under the bright lights, the figure is still so unclear.
Sometimes, you may even think that you are just blind.
Therefore, this is a person who seems to be here but also seems not to be there.
The girl raised her head while smiling. She did not look at Takeo Nakata, who was kneeling at the door. Her eyes swept over the other three people, including the vague, vague figure.
These three people are all worshipers of their Black Dragon Society. They came here specially from the empire this time and just arrived in Jingcheng today to help her complete this extremely important task for the destiny of the empire.
Three Nascent Soul Realm experts are enough to 100% guarantee that this Jingcheng attack operation will be completed smoothly and prevent any accidents from happening.
After all, there is currently no Nascent Soul realm in the Jingcheng Seven Immortals Alliance.
However, three Nascent Souls were still dispatched during the meeting, which was enough to show the importance the empire attached to this operation.
You must know that the entire Black Dragon Association only has eight Nascent Soul realm worshipers.
Then the girl opened the thick book in front of her again and opened the first page.
The page is densely covered with words.
What is recorded in it are all the planning and operational details of this Jingcheng attack operation.
And everything was planned and promoted by her painstakingly and completed personally.
Before she came to Dahua, many people, whether in the Black Dragon Club or within the imperial royal family, suspected and laughed at her for not being able to accomplish this seemingly impossible task.
But now the action has officially begun.
And the girl couldn't see the possibility of failure in this operation.
So a certain sense of accomplishment arises in my heart.
This was the first time she had led such a huge operation on her own, and it was also a direct competition with that person.
She went to Jinling.
I came to Jingcheng by myself.
It depends on who can break through the formation first that has made the empire choke and have been afraid of it for a long time.
Whoever succeeds will be the person who the empire can truly entrust with its destiny in the future.
At this moment, the girl was full of pride.
Then she announced to everyone in the courtyard a news that only she knew.
"Gentlemen, just an hour ago, His Majesty the Emperor signed an edict. Three days later, the empire will officially send troops to Dahua to capture the three continents outside the pass."
