The Empress Dowager said: "This is not the place to talk, you come with me!" After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the garden behind the palace.
Li Xie didn't know why, but he didn't dare to ask. He followed the Empress Dowager through the garden until they reached a small rockery behind the garden.
It was an extremely remote place, and the maids and eunuchs around the Queen Mother were all old men who had followed the Queen Mother for many years. They didn't even follow the Queen Mother without asking her.
This rockery is made of axe-chopped stone from the South China Sea. This stone is as sharp as a knife and an axe. The rockery is not large in size, only a hundred paces in radius. This is probably because it is in a remote place and requires daily maintenance.
They are not very diligent, so although there are not piles of wormwood here, they are still very wild.
The Empress Dowager pointed to a wrench-like stone in a hidden spot on the rockery and said, "Take off that handbrake!"
Li Xie followed the Empress Dowager's hand and found the rock that vaguely resembled a handbrake. Naturally, Li Xie did not dare to neglect the Empress Dowager's instructions. He stepped forward and lifted the handbrake, which was beyond Li Xie's expectation.
What's surprising is that the handbrake seemed to have the power of a thousand pounds. It made a creaking sound, and a crack opened in the rockery that could only allow one person to pass through. When Li Xiezheng was wondering, the Queen Mother had already stepped into the cave.
This was the first time that Li Xie knew that there was such a place in the harem, and he followed the Queen Mother step by step. After they entered, the stone cracks closed on their own. Although the passage was not wide, it was not boring either.
Oil lamps were lit in all places, illuminating the passage brightly.
After walking a few steps, they came to a staircase going down. After all, the Empress Dowager was a little old, so it was not convenient to go up and down the stairs. Li Xie quickly took a few steps ahead, holding the Empress Dowager's arm, and walked up carefully.
Go down.
To Li Xie's surprise, the stairs were not as deep underground as the Wuyue Town Demon Prison, but they reached the end after only a dozen steps.
At the end, there is a layer of colorful light curtain that fills the end of the stone steps like running water, making it impossible for people to see what is happening on the other side of the stone steps.
The Empress Dowager walked up to the light curtain and took off a small clip from her bun. She tapped her finger lightly and a drop of blood seeped out. As she moved, the Empress Dowager said: "Xie'er, I am the only one behind this light curtain."
Only the royal bloodline can enter." After saying this, the Queen Mother flicked her finger, and the drop of blood on her fingertips flicked into the light curtain. Then the light curtain burst into glory and started to shake, and the Queen Mother walked straight in without hesitation.
into the light curtain.
Although Li Xie has no Taoist training, his vision is not too low. Naturally, he can see that this light curtain is a restriction created by great supernatural powers. If someone breaks through this kind of restriction, he will definitely use great power to break through.
The person was turned into ashes, so Li Xie did not dare to neglect. He stretched out his fingers and used his true energy to force a drop of blood out of the pores. Then he imitated the Empress Dowager and flicked the drop of blood into the light curtain, and then tested
He also entered the light curtain.
Surprisingly, this light curtain was extremely thick. Li Xie walked dozens of steps before breaking through the light curtain. The restricted light curtains Li Xie had seen in the past were all only as thick as an eggshell, and at most they were no more than a pinch thick.
, who has never seen such a light curtain dozens of steps thick, and walking in this light curtain feels like being in thick mucus. Although Li Xie once again broke through and entered the realm of martial arts cultivation in the late stage of becoming a weapon, he still felt that
It was a little difficult to walk. This was because Li Xie had the protection of the royal bloodline and had opened the light screen to prohibit the power of the light screen. If anyone else did not have the royal bloodline, they would be refined into ashes immediately.
What surprised Li Xie even more was that behind the light curtain, there was an old man sitting cross-legged in the empty basement, which was only a few feet away.
It was as shiny as steel wire, and it was unclear whether the old man had a skeleton or had not been moved for too long, but his face, shoulders, and even clothes were covered with a layer of dust.
The Empress Dowager's breathing was slightly rapid, and she obviously spent a lot of energy walking through the light curtain. Even a person of Li Xie's level felt blocked by the sticky power of the light curtain, let alone someone who was about to die.
The Queen Mother.
They saw the Empress Dowager straightening her clothes, walking to the man and bowing down to give a big salute. She muttered something silently, then turned to Li Xie and said, "Xie'er, salute our ancestors quickly."
Li Xie was completely stunned and said without knowing why: "Ancestor?"
The Empress Dowager said: "This is Emperor Jingyang!"
When he heard this name, Li Xie couldn't help but be shocked. Emperor Jingyang was the heir of Emperor Taizu Xi. He inherited the throne after Taizu's death. Taizu Xi only conquered the country. He really took over the Shang Kingdom.
Stable, it was Emperor Jingyang who laid a solid foundation for the eight-hundred-year-old foundation. After all, Emperor Xi was at the time when the elixir was formed and the elixir shattered and the world collapsed. At that time, the rules of the Shang Kingdom were established, chaos was established, and all kinds of wastes were waiting to be revitalized.
Without this, Emperor Jingyang's methods would most likely collapse.
Li Xie felt that his brain was a little weak, but the words of the Empress Dowager were definitely correct. Although he was full of doubts, Li Xie still bowed down and bowed down to the old man. The final royal etiquette was something that he would never dare to do to his ancestors.
There is no ambiguity at all, even the emperor dare not go overboard in the slightest in front of his ancestors.
While saluting, Li Xie understood, "This must be the flesh shell of Emperor Jingyang, but wasn't Emperor Jingyang buried in the Tomb of the Emperor Tangshang? Why is it here?"
Before Li Xie could finish his thoughts, he heard a soft hum in his ear. The sound was not loud, but it penetrated into Li Xie's soul like a charged golden needle, causing half of his body to feel numb and uncomfortable. This made Li Xie feel extremely uncomfortable.
Xie was shocked. Even those foundation-building immortal masters had never given him such a shock. Li Xie couldn't help but glance at Emperor Jingyang, and saw that Emperor Jingyang's eyes were still closed as before.
He didn't move at all, which surprised Li Xie. He couldn't help but look around the stone room, but he didn't find anyone else.
At this time, the Empress Dowager said: "Xie'er, there is no need to search. The person who just spoke is none other than Emperor Jingyang. Emperor Jingyang entered this small room to practice Taoism seven hundred years ago and never left. I'm just looking for him."
I just want to have a safe place to talk to you. Emperor Jingyang has been practicing hard, you can relax, he will not pay attention to me waiting."
Hearing this, Li Xie felt a little relieved, and then said with some disbelief and surprise: "After seven hundred years, wouldn't Emperor Jingyang have already reached the Nascent Soul realm?"
The Empress Dowager shook her head, and then said: "Emperor Jingyang did not condense the Nascent Soul, but formed a golden elixir. Putting aside these things for the time being, I brought you here just to talk to you about that big thing."
The secret is that the Fetal Dragon Dou Realm here is not our realm, but another realm that coexists with the one we were originally in, and is sealed by this Fetal Dragon Restriction. Except for our Li family lineage, other realms
No one can enter, and this dragon-born restriction can isolate us from all the covetous thoughts of gods in the world. Only here can we speak freely without fear of being eavesdropped by others."
Li Xie's heart moved. The Empress Dowager's words aroused his curiosity to the limit. He wanted to hear the secret immediately, but Li Xie did not dare to ask, so he had to wait impatiently for the Empress Dowager to explain.
The Empress Dowager did not ask him to wait too long. She took a breath and continued: "Xie'er, before I tell you this secret, you must be prepared in your heart. If this happens, all the emperor's inheritance will be nothing more than a passing cloud.
That’s all, as long as we accomplish this, everyone in our Li family will be like immortals. They will live for thousands of years and will never fade away. If we are willing, it will be just a matter of time to achieve an eternal legacy."
Li Xie was stunned. This was completely different from his initial expectation of opening up new territories and establishing an empire. In other words, his previous thoughts of opening up new territories and expanding territories seemed completely worthless in front of this secret.
The Empress Dowager said: "Xie'er, do you know how many emperors our Li family has produced since the founding of the country?"
This kind of thing naturally does not trouble Li Xie, who is free and well-disciplined. Every year during festivals, he goes to the Imperial Temple to worship his ancestors. Li Xie can memorize the tablets in the Imperial Temple backwards, so Li Xie quickly said without even thinking about it.
: "Back to the Empress Dowager, our royal family has lasted for more than 800 years and has had 68 emperors."
The Empress Dowager nodded and said, "Yes, including you and Xie'er, there are a total of seventy emperors."
Li Xie felt a little sour in his heart. He had already completely regarded himself as Li Xie, and had completely forgotten about Li Fu, whose family was confiscated and exterminated. However, the words of the Empress Dowager immediately wiped out all the things he had forgotten.
They were all hooked up, and among them were the faces that he was very familiar with. Among these faces were wives, concubines, teachers, friends, and even servants. A year ago, he ordered all of these people to be killed.
Kill. No matter how hard-hearted a person is, it is impossible not to feel condemned after making such a decision.
The Empress Dowager did not know what Li Xie was thinking, and then said something that shocked Li Xie and almost fell to the ground: "All sixty-nine emperors including your brother Jinglong Emperor Li Xie are not dead.
They are all stored in the Dragon Ghost Town Tianding with one breath."dd
