Lishan Mountain is located more than 60 miles east of Chang'an and is a branch of the Qinling Mountains.
Its mountains are winding and the trees are lush. From a distance, it looks like a pale horse, and the scenery is as beautiful as a brocade.
Before the Qin Dynasty, there was an Old Mother Temple on the mountain dedicated to the old mother of Lishan, also known as Nuwa Palace. According to legend, Nuwa "refined stones to mend the sky" here, and it was also the origin of the story of the Yin and Shang gods.
On the anniversary of the Western Zhou Dynasty, King You of the Zhou Dynasty staged the allusion of "playing the princes with beacon fire" here.
Eight thousand miles of Qinchuan, magnificent mountains and rivers, and beautiful terrain. Huashan Mountain, Taibai Mountain and other famous mountains are all in the Qinling Mountains.
After approaching Lishan Mountain, Huo Qubing slowed down, revealing the whereabouts of his troops.
In the end, he stopped his horse on a lonely cliff. The black air below was a mountain stream, and it was difficult to penetrate the line of sight.
People gathered around him.
The Imperial Guards of the Han Dynasty dispersed like a tide and poured into all parts of Lishan Mountain, deploying defense and control.
After Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty conquered the world, he ordered people to garrison the Mausoleum of the First Emperor at the northern end of Lishan Mountain, and no one was allowed to approach without authorization.
Coupled with the existence of Lishan Beacon Tower, there were originally troops stationed here.
There is also a group of gravekeepers who even the Han Dynasty acquiesces to its existence and considers themselves to be old Qin people.
It is said that this group of tomb guardians is not large in number, but they have mysterious means of controlling the earth's veins. They are descendants of a group of alchemists from the Qin people.
"Lishan..."
After Yin Yangjia Jiangyan approached Lishan Mountain, he seemed a little uneasy.
With Zhang Tang's indifference and seriousness, he also became solemn after arriving at Lishan Mountain: "The energy of the earth below Lishan Mountain is gathering, and if it is missed slightly, it may cause great changes.
Can Zonghengdao really be dormant in Lishan Mountain?"
"The information I have is that Zonghengdao used a mausoleum buried deep in Lishan Mountain during the ancient tribal period and renovated it to hide in it. If it weren't for the special nature of Lishan Mountain, their hiding here would be so unexpected, how could they hide it from us?
." Huo Qubing said.
"What you say is not credible."
A hoarse and old voice came along with the wind.
Not far away, two people, accompanied by the Forbidden Army, approached.
One is Qi Mo, the head of the Lishan garrison and the captain of the mountain guard. He is stronger than ordinary people and has a short beard on his chin.
The other person is an old man who is as skinny as a skeleton and has a pale complexion.
The old man was dressed in black and walked silently, as if he was floating close to the ground. He was the one who openly refuted Huo Qubing.
He is the guardian of the tomb here, named Zhao Ji.
"This Lishan Mountain has the Qin Emperor's mausoleum to suppress the spirit. Anyone who enters without permission will immediately die. How can anyone hide here?"
Zhao Ji walked closer, looked around at the crowd and said, "We have made an agreement with the Han Dynasty not to touch the imperial mausoleum and not to open the Lishan Mountains. Are you bringing heavy troops here to break the agreement?"
He also said: "If you insist on stationing a large number of soldiers and horses in Lishan Mountain and startle the terracotta warriors in the imperial mausoleum, you will be responsible for the consequences."
Huo Qubing ignored him and looked at the unfathomable mountain stream below.
The atmosphere inside is gloomy, and the mist spreads like a layer of black water vapor.
When the wind blows and the mist moves, you can tell at a glance that it is not a good place.
Zhao Ji squinted his pale eyes and looked at Huo Qubing coldly: "Looking at the way you lead the troops, is he a Han general?"
Zuo Zhonglang general Liu Yu said to the side: "This is the order of the doctor of the court. The champion is in front of you. You should be careful what you say."
Zhao Ji's expression changed: "The champion...is he the champion who defeated the Xiongnu and conquered foreign tribes?"
"There is only one champion, General Huo." Liu Yu said.
Zhao Ji hesitated for a moment, then actually bowed and saluted.
His obvious change in attitude was due to Huo Qubing's achievements in conquering foreign tribes.
You must know that during the Qin Dynasty, and even at the end of the Warring States Period before Qin, countries such as Yan and Zhao were repeatedly disturbed by the Xiongnu and Donghu.
Li Mu from Zhao was also a famous general who resisted the Xiongnu.
During the Warring States, Qin and Han dynasties, the Great Wall was built and connected in series. Although it was said to suppress the dragon veins and protect the destiny of China, it also had the purpose of resisting foreign invasion. It can be seen how serious the foreign troubles were at that time.
So when he learned that Huo Qubing, who had defeated the Xiongnu, was leading the troops, Zhao Ji changed his attitude.
He slowed down and said: "Huo Hou has brought his troops here. Are you sure there is the person you are looking for in Lishan?"
Huo Qubing pointed to the deep stream below, where the terrain was like a canyon: "It's right under this mountain stream."
"The Qi of the Lishan Mountains' earth veins intersect like rivers. Among us and the mausoleum keepers, word of mouth has been spreading that there are eighteen underground passes under Lishan Mountain. Emperor Qin chose this place to build the mausoleum with the intention of suppressing the earth veins. p>
Legend has it that every time a barrier is unlocked, it is a catastrophe.
If all eighteen earth gates are opened, the world will collapse, dynasties will change, and the people will be in dire straits."
Zhao Ji continued: "The arrangement of the warriors buried with the First Emperor's Mausoleum coincides with the Lishan Mountains. It is a huge military formation.
That military formation was perfected on the basis of a military map drawn by Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an, by Wang Jian, the god of Qin. It was a fusion of the hard work of two generations of military strategists. If you trespass on it, if you trigger the protection of the imperial mausoleum,
In the military formation, Huo Hou and your troops will suffer heavy losses..."
"It doesn't matter, I have no intention of touching the imperial mausoleum."
Huo Qubing said decisively: "Do it!"
He gave an order and everyone responded.
Jiang Yan, the Great Yin Yang Family, was the first to reach out and hold out a formation diagram, rising into the sky.
"Yin and Yang alternate, and the bright moon shines on the mountains and rivers."
The power of the stars and the moon was suddenly attracted in the sky, and the light intertwined and merged into the formation diagram.
Its light becomes brighter and brighter, shining onto the dark mountain stream below.
The scene deep in the mountain stream becomes clear as if the clouds are clearing and the sun is visible.
The dark energy hidden in it was also dispelled by the dazzling light of the formation diagram.
"...What is that.
A dragon or a python, it’s so big that it’s almost becoming a monster.”
As soon as the light fell into the mountain stream, there was a huge python-like creature, its scales opened and closed, and it rushed into the darkness on the side of the mountain stream.
At first glance, the creature is at least seven or eight feet long, and its size is quite astonishing.
And it was originally attached to the cliff on one side of the mountain stream, as if listening to everyone's conversation, which was very strange.
On the cliff, Dong Zhongshu also took out a Confucian classic.
In the past, he had been reluctant to cooperate with Huo Qubing, hiding his abilities half the time. But this time, he tried his best to show off, and the classics he took out exuded the aura of Confucian awe-inspiring and mysterious light like water.
"The sage said: The five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are in harmony, which is the Five Constant Elements."
Dong Zhongshu learned from many experts.
In his Confucian practice, yin-yang and the five elements accounted for a large proportion.
He also elicits a force of the Five Elements, which is consistent with Confucian practice.
There is an image of a saint emerging in the void, with radiance from all directions gathering around him, and his energy is unparalleled.
"Xiao Xiao is born with an evil nature, but a saint is born with a kind heart. In a country like Han, people with evil nature like Xiao Xiao are not allowed to hide in the darkness."
Following Dong Zhongshu's voice, the image of the saint with the Confucian atmosphere was grabbed deep into the mountain stream.
The mountains and earth below slowly parted sideways, and the earth veins opened and closed, revealing a corridor of the underground palace, sinking into the ground like a deep well, with more and more exposed, and the entrance alone was more than twenty feet large.
Is this the figure of Xunzi or Confucius? The ancient scroll in Dong Fuzi's hand is obviously a Confucian treasure, with the power to change the mountains and rivers... Everyone looked at the ancient scroll in Dong Zhongshu's hand in unison.
Zhao Ji, the guardian of the mausoleum, looked down at the cracked earth corridor below. Under the mountain stream that was a hundred feet deep, the cracked corridor was extremely dark:
"This is a hole with evil energy in the earth. Thousands of troops will be strangled if they enter. Who dares to open such a hole in such a vicious place."
Inside the cracked tunnel, black energy was like a curtain, as if the door to hell had been opened, containing extremely ferocious energy.
Huo Qubing also presented a formation diagram.
As soon as his formation diagram came out, a wave of soldiers rushed into the sky like a big halberd pointing to the sky, and the stars were swayed.
This is the aura of a hundred thousand forbidden troops gathered together, with an unparalleled edge.
Legalist Zhang Tang also took action and assembled two legalist punishment locks, which matched Huo Qubing's military formation diagram.
The few Imperial Guards that Liu Yu suspected were the Imperial Guards around the Emperor, one after another took to the air and landed on the formation diagram stretched to several feet in size, corresponding to the different positions of the formations on the diagram.
The next moment, the formation diagram was suspended in the air and sank into the cracked tunnel below.
In an instant, deep in the earth's veins, the thick black air that seemed to be able to absorb light was struck by the soldiers' front, and dissipated like ice and snow.
When the underground cave was first opened, there was an evil spirit that made everyone on the cliff feel palpitated.
However, at this moment, it was attacked by the military formation, and it was immediately reduced layer by layer, and it was no longer a problem.
Comparing before and after, the sharpness of the military formation can easily suppress the anomalies below.
The Han army and the champion Hou are so strong... Zhao Ji thought in shock.
The formation chart swirled and sank into the depths of the tunnel at the entrance of the crypt in an instant.
After a long time, in the mountain stream below, the light became bright again, and the array rose again, breaking through the darkness.
The several imperial guards in the picture are wearing armor and holding sharp swords, and they are full of murderous intent. It seems that there has been a fight below. They shouted: "Lang Zhongling, the arrangements are ready."
Huo Qubing agreed and stretched out his hand.
Boom!
The four corners of the formation diagram correspond to the four directions, and the Legalist power of Bing Feng and Zhang Tang integrated into the diagram, resulting in chains thicker than a human waist.
These chains are entangled deep in the corridor below. As the formation rises, it seems that there are 100,000 forbidden troops working together. The chains are dragged straight, the earth roars, and everything shakes.
Click!
The military front soars into the sky, splitting mountains and cracking the earth.
In Lishan Mountain, there was a deafening sound, and the mountain streams below turned into ravines. The tunnel collapsed, earth and rocks flew, and even the surrounding mountains were shaking and about to topple.
A corner of an underground palace was dragged up from the depths of the earth.
"The underground palace... is made of bronze and stone. What period is this from?"
On the cliff, everyone looked down and marveled.
……
Somewhere underground in Lishan Mountain.
The Great Master laughed dumbly: "I expected him to act like this, and sure enough."
At this time, the bronze wall in front of him reflected a scene like a bronze mirror. It was vague and he could barely see that it was Huo Qubing leading his soldiers and horses to excavate the Lishan Mountains.
The Great Master paid attention to the copper wall and withdrew his gaze. Bai Nanyu also regained her consciousness.
She felt the ground beneath her feet shaking slightly.
At this time, the entire Lishan Mountain was filled with earth energy energy, and formations emerged from the ground. It seemed that a huge military formation was being triggered.
It was the impact on the Mausoleum of the First Emperor that caused the accident!
Under the earth's veins, the Great Lord stood with his hands behind his hands and said: "Let's go and see the protection of the First Emperor's Mausoleum. What is the current state of it?"
There seemed to be a figure in the darkness not far away, leaving silently.
"Do you want to use the Han army and the champion prince to help you shake the protection of the Qin Emperor's Tomb and find an opportunity to enter the Emperor's Tomb?"
Bai Nanyu guessed: "Our current location is just below the underground palace that Champion Hou and the others dragged out, right?
So by relying on his sense of my position, he will fall into your trap, drag the upper underground palace out, and trigger changes in the First Emperor's Mausoleum. This is your real purpose, to use the power of the Han army to your advantage!" p>
The Great Master said calmly: "We have been studying the Mausoleum of the First Emperor for decades, and the result is that no one can enter unless the military formation of terracotta warriors is breached from the front.
Huo Qubing prides himself on his military talent and is a big man with strong soldiers and horses, so let him try the layout of the imperial mausoleum."
Bai Nanyu: "He won't be fooled."
Great Master: "He has fallen into my scheme. Once the earth's veins shake, he cannot stop the change."
"What is there in the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum that is worthy of Zonghengdao dormant here for decades?"
The Great Master shook his head slightly and did not continue to explain.
There were footsteps in the darkness not far away, and another person came out: "It's almost time."
Bai Nanyu was shocked, this person... is the King of Huainan!
At the top of the cliff on the ground, Zhao Ji, the guardian of the mausoleum, changed his expression: "If you make such a big noise, something will happen to Emperor Qin's mausoleum. Champion, you may have caused a big disaster."
