A fast horse stopped in front of the main entrance of Ye Yu Mansion. The messenger in black fell off the horse and sent a new urgent report to the manor.
"To the north of Shouchun, the capital of the Chu people, and continuing to the northwest along Juyang City, traveling for about three hundred miles, unusual changes occurred. In recent days, black air has often overflowed from the ground. After analysis, it is suspected that the secret palace is about to be born.
."
Many generals in Ye Yu's Mansion gathered in the main hall where Zhao Huaizhong handled official business.
Mu Qingkong, who had narrow eyes, lowered her head and said:
"In recent days, news has spread from various places that the Yin Shang Secret Palace is about to be born in Chu.
It is said that the news first came from the mouth of a drunken minister from Qi."
"Everyone knows that the King of Qi is obsessed with the art of immortality. In recent years, they have been trying their best to find the secret palace of the Yin and Shang Dynasties because the King of Qi said that there is an elixir of immortality in the secret palace."
"The news came from Qi's mouth, which is quite credible."
"Currently, many practitioners from all seven countries have gone to Chu after receiving the news."
Fan Qingzhou also knelt and sat behind the low mat on Zhao Huaizhong's left hand side.
Beside him were Mu Qianshui, Xia Xin and other generals, sitting one after another.
"Your Majesty, if someone is born in the Secret Palace of Yin and Shang, should I, Ye Yufu, send someone there?"
Knowing that the Secret Palace of Yin and Shang was about to be born, the generals were eager to try and came to challenge him.
"What are you going to do?" Zhao Huaizhong glanced at the generals coldly.
Xia Xin and other generals were startled.
There are many legends about the Secret Palace of the Yin and Shang Dynasties. Since we know that it will be born, shouldn't we go and explore it?
In particular, the Qin Dynasty has many soldiers and generals, and is the most competitive side. If you go to the Yin Shang Secret Palace, you will definitely gain something.
Fan Qingzhou looked at the generals and said: "The Secret Palace of Yin and Shang has not yet been born, but now it is known to everyone. The prince and I analyzed that the news that came from the mouths of the Qi ministers is not credible and may be misleading.
means.
The real reason is that someone is secretly planning to release the news deliberately to lure those who know the news.
The prince said that our Qin Dynasty is prosperous and has a solid foundation. There is no need to risk exploring the secret palace of Yin and Shang.
If we don’t participate, we can just stand by and see clearly what the person in the dark wants to do next.”
Fan Qingzhou's slightly chubby face, his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a gloomy look:
"Since running thousands of miles to kill the leader of the Huns, your generals have obviously become arrogant and less cautious than before.
If you know clearly that the Yin Shang Secret Palace is born, and someone is hiding in the dark to plot it, but still want to rush in and try, that is not bravery, but stupidity."
All the generals were ashamed.
What Fan Qingzhou said was exactly what they were thinking.
Zhao Huaizhong observed silently and thought to himself: These generals are obviously a little distracted, and they need to be suppressed appropriately, otherwise they will die.
Fan Qingzhou added: "The strategy formulated by the Crown Prince and me is that we hold our troops back and do not move. No matter who is setting up the trap, we will not get involved at all. We will stand on the outside and observe how things develop before we decide what to do."
"promise!"
All the generals were sincerely convinced and bowed to accept the order.
Zhao Huaizhong said: "Although we will not participate, we are going to the southeast of Da Qin and the border where we meet Chu. We are ready to respond at any time. Those who want to go can go to the border first and wait for the next order."
The generals bowed again and left one after another.
Only Fan Qingzhou stayed and continued discussions with Zhao Huaizhong.
"Who do you think is hiding in the dark and waiting for the opportunity to appear this time in the secret palace?" Zhao Huaizhong asked.
Fan Qingzhou analyzed: "The Qi people came to our country in the Qin Dynasty before and secretly plotted to seize the Yin Shang Secret Palace. They obviously have the possibility of knowing the birth of the Yin Shang Secret Palace in advance.
In addition, according to what the prince said, the demon clan is entrenched in the far west.
If it is really the demon clan that has been entrenched from ancient times to the present, and they have been inherited for such a long time, there may be a way to know the birth patterns of the Yin and Shang secret palaces.
At present, the suspicions in both aspects are quite high."
Zhao Huaizhong thought for a while: "Last time I broke through to the second realm of the Saint, the first thing to interfere with me was a bell coming from the east of Xianyang. The specific location is difficult to determine.
But as soon as the bell rang, the demon clan appeared.
There may be some problems in this.
I asked you to investigate this matter, will there be any gains?"
Fan Qingzhou: "I sent people to the east of the Qin Dynasty to investigate the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Han, but there was no harvest."
Zhao Huaizhong: "With the Legalist sage Han Feizi among the Koreans, it is difficult for anyone to hide his actions. Eliminate the Koreans first. Wei and Zhao are the key points."
Fan Qingzhou nodded in agreement and said:
"I also found out a piece of news. More than thirty years ago, the Yin Shang Secret Palace appeared once in Zhao Di, and everyone knew about it.
At that time, it was widely rumored that the Zhao people had made great gains in the secret palace and obtained a secret map. There was also a rumor that the Zhao people had obtained an ancient immortal weapon, but the details of it were not found out."
August 9th, the weather was fine.
In the morning, three hundred miles north of Juyang City in the Chu region, in a barren mountain, a rhythm suddenly appeared on the ground, and then a deep, dark cave opened.
The entrance of the cave is square and sinks dozens of feet into the ground, like a deep well or a huge mouth that swallows people.
Under the deep well, black air permeates the air.
When my eyes fell into it, I could only vaguely see what seemed to be two huge bronze doors at the end.
On the left and right of the door are two giant beasts, both made of bronze, which are eerie and ferocious.
At this moment, in Chu Di, many practitioners from all over the world have gathered because of the news that the Secret Palace was about to be born in advance.
The changes on the ground were quickly discovered and quickly spread throughout the seven countries through various channels.
After the secret palace was born, people entered it on the same day.
In the next two days, hundreds of people entered the secret palace.
Twelve of them escaped completely after entering, while the rest were still in the secret palace without any movement.
"People who came out all said that deep in the secret palace, they saw a large bronze cauldron from a distance, filled with fairy light. It was suspected to be the legendary Yin Shang cauldron, an ancient fairy weapon.
According to legend, the Yin Shang Ding is a valuable treasure passed down to the Yin Shang personally by the ancestor of Jie Jiao."
"It is also said that the cauldron contains an elixir obtained by the Yin and Shang clan who used the national fortune as a material and sacrificed it. Eating it can lead to immortality."
"Earlier today, Qi and Chu jointly began to explore the secret palace and entered it."
In the afternoon, at the Crown Prince's Mansion, Mu Qingkong and Xia Xin rushed over to report the latest news to Zhao Huaizhong.
Jiang Shu was also there, wearing a long black dress with dark red bird patterns, sitting quietly on one side and listening.
Xia Xin said: "People from Qi and Chu were obviously using other people to test the danger of being born in the secret palace. They waited for two days before entering by themselves."
"I also heard that Qi and Chu are planning to invite saints to enter the secret palace to explore the treasures."
Zhao Huaizhong smiled and said: "The news sent to me by Saint Zou also said that the monarch of Da Qi personally went to Jixia to ask him to take action, but Saint Zou refused.
Zou Sheng said that he had deduced the horoscope, and the timing and location of the birth of the secret palace indicated great evil.
It would be dangerous for a saint to go in. Not only did he not go, he also sent a letter to Xunzi and me, telling us not to go either."
Zhao Huaizhong looked as if he was concentrating on eating melon.
The message sent by Zou Yan also specifically mentioned that someone had deceived the secrets of heaven and blocked the saint's induction. Regarding the birth of the secret palace of Yin and Shang, other deductions were vague.
The benefits of close contact between Zhao Huaizhong and several saints also emerged from this.
They exchanged news and reached a consensus immediately.
"The Mo Mansion, which is as famous as my Ye Yu Mansion in Chu, has also followed the order of King Chu and arranged a large number of people to enter the secret palace."
When Zhao Huaizhong first returned to the Qin Dynasty, Fan Qingzhou once said that only Mo Mansion of Chu State and Ji Renjixia of Qi State could compare with Ye Yu Mansion.
Now three years after Zhao Huaizhong returned to Qin Dynasty, the strength of Ye Yu Mansion has been continuously improving, and has clearly surpassed Jixia and Mo Mansion.
However, Mo Mansion and Jixia still have a profound foundation and strong people emerge in large numbers.
When they jointly enter the secret palace, they will find something.
"Chu Land is getting more and more lively. It's a pity that I can't participate in person. I wonder what is happening in the secret palace?" Xia Xin muttered to Mu Qingkong after reporting the news and coming out of the Crown Prince's Mansion.
"Why don't you go and tell the prince that no matter who is setting up the trap, you want to rush into the secret palace and have a look?" Mu Qingqing asked.
"I don't dare." Xia Xin said calmly.
The Crown Prince's Mansion.
After Xia Xin and others left, Zhao Huaizhong reached out and took out the bone mirror.
Although he was not prepared to participate in the secret palace of Yin and Shang, he still made arrangements.
At this time, he took out the main mirror of the bone mirror, and the scene where the secondary mirror was located appeared on the other side, which turned out to be the scene in the secret palace of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.
Zhao Huaizhong once released Xiying, a holy girl from the Yue Nu Cult, back to the Chu region as a free chess piece.
But Xiying asked for orders on her own, willing to lurk in Dachu and work for Zhao Huaizhong.
A few days ago, Zhao Huaizhong brought the secondary mirror of the bone mirror to the Chu Territory by Ye Yufu's spies, and then gave it to Xiying.
It has been nearly two years since Xiying returned to Chu. With the secret support of Ye Yufu, her influence within the Yue Nu Cult and in the Chu region has increased significantly.
This time, Qi and Chu jointly entered the Yin-Shang Secret Palace, and Xiying was among them.
On the other side of the bone mirror that Zhao Huaizhong opened was the scene after Xiying led the Yue Nu Cult people and followed the masters from Qi and Chu into the secret palace.
"What's this?"
Jiang Shu also followed and watched, seeing the picture in the mirror, her clear eyes showed surprise.
The Yin Shang Secret Palace was dimly lit and had a gloomy atmosphere, which made Zhao Huaizhong feel like he was watching a horror movie.
The osteoscope was hidden in Xiying's cuff, at an angle that made it easier for Zhao Huaizhong to observe.
Through the mirror, Xiying and others can be seen in a main hall of the Yin Shang Secret Palace.
The four walls of the palace are engraved with numerous murals and various bronze ornaments, and are intertwined with mantras.
"Don't touch the things in this hall at will, as it may cause unknown changes." A deep and majestic voice came from the other side of the mirror.
When Zhao Huaizhong vaguely saw the contents of a mural through the mirror, his eyes suddenly shone.
Through the secret connection of the bone mirror, Xiying adjusted the direction of the mirror to see more clearly.
————
Somewhere on the border between Qin and Chu.
On the branches of an ancient tree, squatting was a young man, dressed in black, with narrow eyes. There was a wisp of dark yellow hidden in the depths of the pupils, spinning slowly. He was the Black Crow Demon King who left the Kunlun Demon Ruins and entered the world.
At this time, a colorful feather floated out of his lapel, and the demonic energy dissipated, revealing the phantom of Li Ji.
"The Demon Lord asked me to ask you, did things go smoothly?"
"I set up a trap to seduce him, but none of the human saints ambushed me."
The Black Crow Demon King faced Li Ji and said angrily: "There is absolutely no chance to make a move."
Li Ji chuckled repeatedly, as if she was mocking his incompetence: "Then you have to be careful, don't let the saints of the human race discover your traces, and you will never be able to return to the demon ruins."
The Black Crow Demon King sneered: "I hope that some human saints can discover my traces and take the opportunity to kill them and sacrifice them to the secret palace."
