"You see clearly, I have never deceived the government." Duanmu Li looked at the eaves of the house on the ridge and shouted excitedly to the officers and soldiers who had just gone up the mountain.
Jiang Rong knew Duanmu Li well and did not believe that Duanmu Li had deceived the government. It was just that the military orders were like mountains. I was shocked to see the eaves of the house with my own eyes. Soldiers fought in the north and south, and were used to seeing all kinds of houses and palaces. How can this be a human thing?
"I believe you. Brother Li, don't leave. Let me go and report to the county magistrate!" After saying that, Jiang Rong flew down with two soldiers. The remaining soldiers, Duanmu Li and others continued to stay on the side, their eyes motionless. I am afraid that the eaves of the house will disappear again.
Jiang Rong and others ran all the way down the mountain. After arriving at the foot of the mountain, they rode horses and rushed towards the county government office.
"Report to the county magistrate, the cornices have appeared again!" Jiang Rong arrived in front of the county government office, dismounted from his horse, jumped inside, and shouted as he ran, as nervous as a soldier pressing down on the situation.
Lu He and Xian Cheng were changing cups and cups. When they heard the cornices appeared again, they stood up with a bang. Not caring about eating or drinking anymore, he hurriedly called a few followers and sent Jiang Rong to the camp to inform the soldiers and engineers brought by the governor to meet at the eaves.
A large group of people marched towards the place where Fei Yan appeared. In less than an hour, everyone arrived in front of the eaves.
Sure enough, everyone saw it this time!
Lu He was the most excited. As a county guard, Lu He's knowledge is beyond anyone's imagination. I don’t know how many times I have been to Gyeonggi. Even the most majestic palace in the capital cannot compare to this corner of the cornice!
Lu He kept his eyes fixed on the cornices exposed on the snow. However, this cornice is very strange, as if the entire palace has collapsed. The corners of the eaves are not straight, but sloping upward.
Don't worry about it for now. Immortal fate is in front of you, no matter if he falls over or not.
Lu He immediately ordered the soldiers present, as well as the county magistrate and Duanmu Li, to strictly keep the secret and not to spread it outside, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.
Lu He ordered the engineers to go forward and dig carefully without destroying every brick, tile, beam or wood.
More than a hundred engineers and soldiers heard the governor's order and immediately stepped forward to start work. A bizarre thing happened. An engineer's iron shovel accidentally touched the cornice. The engineer was frightened, but then he found that the iron shovel easily passed through the cornice and sank into it!
What's happening here? !
So the engineer boldly touched the cornice with his hands carefully. As expected, his fingers entered easily without any feeling. It was as if the hand was inserted deep into the air.
"Lord Governor, something is fishy!" the engineer shouted.
"What's weird?" Lu He quickly walked forward on the snow and saw that the engineer's hand was still in the cornice. In shock, he subconsciously used his hand to explore, and his hand entered easily!
Lu He retracted his hand and carefully observed his fingers and palms, but found nothing strange.
Lu He's eyes were blurry, what's going on? Then I realized that the cornices seemed like a mirage, but a false appearance!
So Lu He grabbed the iron shovel from the engineer beside him and waved it several times towards the cornices. Sure enough, the iron shovel shuttled through the cornices effortlessly. Then he stepped forward and walked into the cornices. He looked carefully and saw that there was still snow under his feet. He raised his eyes and looked outside. He saw no cornices, but saw the snow and soldiers all around. Looking up at the sky, the sun is shining brightly and the sky is clear. What a weird thing!
At this moment, Lu He felt like crying without tears. After finally encountering a ruined place, it turned out to be a mirage. Lu He still refused to give up and ordered the engineers to continue digging.
More than a hundred engineers dug around the eaves eagerly. Within a moment, the snow was gone and only the rocks were exposed. Keep digging, and with just a stick of incense, a large pit with a radius of several feet and a depth of about ten feet appeared under the eaves. As the pit deepens, the palace connected to the cornices is gradually revealed! But the problem is that if people are within the light and shadow of the palace, they still cannot see the palace at all.
After all, Lu He was the governor of a county and had seen the world. Seeing that I have entered the treasure mountain and returned empty-handed, I don't feel much disappointed. On the contrary, I want to see when this realm of flying eaves will appear and when it will disappear.
So he ordered some soldiers to go back to get pots and pans, food, grass, meat, and tents. I plan to live here forever!
In fact, it didn't take only a few days for everyone to discover: on cloudy days, dark weather or at night, the cornices will disappear, but when the sun is shining, they will appear for a few hours.
With that said, it’s not hard to find!
But Lu He is in trouble again. If he can find it, others can also find it. Xishu County can still control it. But the governor of Yunchuan County is hard to say. After all, they are both at the same level. The place where the eaves are flying is on the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, which belongs to the two-nosed zone. Anyone can come and check it out.
Lu He thought about it for a while, and a clever plan came to his mind.
Bury!
As soon as he said it was done, Lu He ordered the engineers to use all the tools to fill the dug hole, and then took the nearby snow to cover the cornices. Strangely enough, no matter whether it is sunny or cloudy at night, the realm of flying eaves is really gone!
This is no longer a mirage. After all, mirages only appear occasionally, and even if they are buried, the mirage will be projected again above the burial site. The realm of flying eaves will appear under the bright sun. It must be some kind of mysterious thing!
After burying it, Lu He felt a little calmer. Immortal fate is not available, and my heart is scratching.
Then Lu He issued a death order, and no one could tell it. Let alone report it to the court, otherwise - wait and see.
Everyone went home.
After Lu He returned to Xishu County, he thought for two days and decided to discuss the matter with the head of the Qingshan Sect and others. After all, someone in the Qingshan Sect had a destiny.
…
"That's what happened." Lu He finished speaking in one breath, without saying anything. Since he was very thirsty, he immediately picked up the tea cup and drank one cup without caring about eating. Qinghao immediately bought another cup. It took three cups of tea in a row to quench my thirst.
"It's really mysterious!" Head Qinghao was already immersed in it after listening to Lu He's narration. After a while, he let out a sigh.
"I hope Brother Qinghao and I will go investigate and find out something unexpected." Lu He felt that after saying these words, Qinghao and others were already tempted.
"I dare not refuse the governor's invitation. It's already getting late, so I'll stay one night in Hanshan today. We'll set off tomorrow."
…
Early the next morning, everyone set off.
Head Qinghao was accompanied by two elders, Yuan Zhen and Yuan Luo.
The reason why Qingyang Yanran didn't go was that her mother felt sorry for her and didn't want her to travel across mountains and rivers. Secondly, he can continue to guide the practice of the remaining four Yuanzi generation disciples in Tianshu Cave.
Originally, Qing Yi and Qing Xuan wanted to leave one person behind in the sect, but both of them wanted to go. Well, the three of us are brothers, so let’s go together!
Two days later, everyone worked hard, changing trains all the way, climbing mountains and ridges, and arrived at the place where the cornices appeared.
After everyone arrived, the few soldiers on duty reported to Governor Lu: "My Lord Governor, I haven't seen anyone else in recent days."
"Very good! Dig out the snow later!" Lu He ordered impatiently.
"As you command!"
In order to avoid being seen by the people on the mountain as much as possible, Lu He had ordered only a small number of engineers and soldiers to be on duty here a few days ago. After everyone heard Lu He's order, they started digging quickly with iron shovels. Fortunately, it was a sunny day, and within a few moments, the cornices buried in snow were once again exposed to the bright sun.
Qinghao and the other five people were also very excited after seeing the colorful eaves of the house. I have never seen this kind of building and its accessories before!
Qinghao saw that all the snow had been cleared and everyone wanted to continue digging, so he stopped everyone from digging further into the rock and soil. He stepped forward and carefully explored the cornices with his hands. He felt that his hands seemed to be stretched into the air, exactly as Lu He said.
Several other people also came forward to test them one by one, and the situation was the same.
All five people looked at each other.
"It seems to be a secret realm in the cave." Qinghao thought to himself, "But how can it be seen with the naked eye? There seems to be something wrong."
While Qinghao was thinking, he inadvertently walked into the cornice. The other four people saw the leader walking towards the light and shadow of the eaves, so they followed in.
The five people entered and stood still, looking up.
Qinghao, the two elders and Yuan Zhen suddenly felt the world spinning and falling suddenly, and they all subconsciously closed their eyes. When I opened my eyes eagerly, I found that the top of Yulong Mountain in the ice and snow was no longer around me!
The four of them looked around anxiously and found that there were only three others around them! Lu He, soldiers and others were all missing, including Yuan Luo!
How is this going? Where is this? Fortunately, all four of them were there, so they relaxed a little. The four people subconsciously approached each other, drew their swords, and looked around.
The four of them saw a majestic hall in front of them, located in a corner of the hall. Looking up, it seemed very familiar. Isn't this the cornice just now? Looking at my feet again, the clouds are steaming up to my knees. If you look carefully at the place where you stepped on it, it seems to be paved with jade!
The materials of the main hall and the cornices seem to be the same, with carved beams and painted beams, engraved with gold and inlaid with jade. To the left of the four people seems to be the front of the main hall, with a total of eight huge white jade stone pillars standing. Each one is as thick as two people hugging each other, ten feet high, with a yang engraved with a coiled dragon, and different shapes. The two middle ones are even thicker, and there seem to be two giant red doors in the middle that are tightly closed.
Looking further into the distance, the clouds and mist are misty, and several halls are looming in the fairy mist. What a fairy-like style!
The four people suddenly arrived here and were so frightened that they did not dare to move around. Standing on the ground, not knowing what to do.
"Brother, I'm afraid this place is inside the cave. What should we do?" The elder in Tsing Yi, who had always had many opinions, was also confused. After all, this place seems more mysterious and unpredictable than Tianshu Cave. I don’t know whether it is bad or good.
"I don't know either. How about the four of us slowly walk to the palace and act according to the opportunity." Qing Hao said. I'm also beating a drum in my heart.
Just when the four of them decided to walk towards the vermilion gate of the main hall, they heard a thunderous voice in the air: "Who are you? Trespassing into the Jade Dragon Cave!"
"Immortal, forgive me! We are Daxia Qingshan Sect Taoists. We accidentally broke into the realm of flying eaves on the top of Yulong Mountain and came here. Immortal, please don't punish us. It's just that we don't know how to retreat." The four of them suddenly heard anger in the air. He was so frightened that he quickly knelt down in the air. Qinghao said to the sky.
"How can people from the lower world enter? Let me investigate carefully." The voice in the sky said.
Everyone felt relieved when they heard that the immortal had no intention of punishing him. Still kneeling on the ground, he didn't dare to raise his head.
"There was a slight mistake, so it is like this!" After a few breaths, everyone heard the sky say again.
"Are there immortal Buddhas in the lower world?" a voice in the sky asked everyone.
"Hui Xianren, as far as I know, including the little girl, there are only five of us who have entered Taixuan and have not yet entered Earth Immortal." Qinghao answered hurriedly.
"You know the realm of earthly immortals! Who is your master?" the voice in the sky shouted sternly.
"Reply to the immortal words, we are studying under Tianchenzi, the founder of Qingshan Sect, and Tianchenzi is already in the realm of earthly immortals!" Qinghao was so frightened when he saw the sudden harsh voice in the sky that he quickly replied, not knowing what he said wrong.
"You just answered that there are no immortals and Buddhas in the lower world, and now you say that your ancestor is an earthly immortal. The first words and the second words do not match up!" A voice in the sky scolded.
"Immortal, forgive me, our ancestor has left Daxia to go east, so I forgot to mention his old man." Qing Hao explained.
"I don't know who Tianchenzi is. Since you have ancestors, you must have the blessed land of Cave Heaven, why come here! Retreat quickly. Don't talk about Jade Dragon Cave Heaven in front of others. Otherwise, your sect will be destroyed!"
