Although a group of people from all corners of the world poured into Taijing and kept saying that they were going to dig Emperor Li's tomb, Gong Jun didn't think they would really be able to find this legendary most mysterious tomb.
After Emperor Chen Li was buried, there have been countless people claiming to have found Emperor Li's Mausoleum for hundreds of years, but none of them turned out to be true.
The periphery of the suspected tomb looks decent, and there are also organs, the difference is that the tomb is empty.
There are fine murals on both sides of the corridor, and occasionally some funerary objects such as gold wares can be seen, which induces the tomb robbers to continue to move forward. Just like this all the way to the door of the tomb, at least a dozen people have to be killed. The megalithic mechanism of the tomb gate is an empty tomb, and the loss after such ecstasy can drive a person crazy.
This way, even the most despicable tomb robbers refused to enter the "Li Emperor Mausoleum".
- Who knows if it's true or not
The risk is too great. With such energy, it is better to find other tombs to make a fortune, and the harvest may be even greater.
Gong Jun despises Jianghu people's habit of listening to the wind as the rain.
Anyway, so-called treasure maps appear every year on the rivers and lakes. Either treasure maps or martial arts secrets, or martial arts secrets or peerless magic soldiers. Anyway, they are almost the same as these three. Sometimes all three kinds are complete in a year, and there is a lot of noise. It is self-evident how much authenticity is there.
And Jianghu people never learn to be good, they were fooled last year, and they will be fooled again this year.
As the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, Gong Jun just disliked these Jianghu people for disturbing the security of the capital, and if he disturbed the powerful, it would bring him trouble.
What's going on now
Is the news of Li Diling actually true
Gong Jun's first reaction was still disbelief.
There are many temples and Taoist temples on Longpao Peak. Every year, many people go up the mountain to offer incense. The Liuhe Temple is ordinary in it, there is no popular legend, there are no eminent monks, and the incense is not prosperous.
There are no cliffs and clouds, no strange rocks and forests, and no Buddha's light can be seen at sunrise and sunset. Gong Jun was puzzled.
He has been a Jinyiwei for more than ten years, but he still understands the emperor's thoughts quite well. Even if you don't think so at first, the dragon chair will be lost after sitting down for a long time.
How can a real dragon and a mortal be the same thing
Not to mention the violent nature of Emperor Chen Li, a place that is hidden but has no "characteristics" that cannot show his identity as a true dragon and emperor, is absolutely impossible as his long-term resting place.
Gong Jun did not hesitate, and directly asked the doubts in his heart.
He must figure out this matter, and he must die to understand it!
"What the deputy commander said is not bad, but you don't know it." Meng Qi deliberately slowed down his tone. He wanted to intimidate Gong Jun for a day or two. a while.
"During the Chen Dynasty, it was not called Liuhe Temple, but Zhuyin Valley."
The wind blows the boundless forest sea, and the whistling sound is continuous, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, which can be called a strange one.
When Emperor Chen Li was in power, the valley was set on fire because of the thunder, and the bamboo forest was almost burned out. This kind of thing always happens, and the people at the time just regretted it. It took a lot of manpower and material resources to replant a large bamboo forest. If no one came forward, the valley would gradually become deserted.
"However, this place is extraordinary." Meng Qi glanced at the ink carp, but did not tell the truth directly.
Because this is where the spiritual cave is located, the vegetation recovers very quickly.
It is difficult to explain, so Meng Qi simply learned from the alchemist and pushed everything to the theory of "feng shui".
"... There is indeed a gathering of dragon energy here, and the trees are transplanted. Basically, one kind of tree will live, and a handful of seeds will grow much faster than other places."
Gong Jun's eyes were weird, and he almost wrote on his face, "Even if I can't beat you, it doesn't mean that I believe everything you say."
"Bamboo Sound Valley is not here. In fact, it is another valley not far from here. Later, it was renamed Crescent Moon Valley without the bamboo forest. There is also a Taoist temple in the valley. It is the Crescent Moon Temple where an impostor craftsman once appeared." In order to find the jade seal of the country, Gong Jun naturally knew the topography of Longclaw Peak very well, as well as temples and temples of all sizes.
The old monk nodded hurriedly, he couldn't speak because of his dumb point, and now his stiff expression has eased.
Immediately afterwards, he heard the "young man" who looked like Meng Guoshi laughed sarcastically.
"What the deputy commander of the palace said is not bad, but—"
"… "
This sentence sounds familiar, it seems to have been said over and over again just now.
"It's just that I don't know something." Gong Jun gritted his teeth and continued the second half of the sentence, holding back his anger and asked, "I'm just so ignorant, and I asked the national teacher to teach me."
The old monk widened his eyes in shock, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Meng Qi.
He turned his head so violently that he strained the tendons in his neck, and in an instant he covered his neck with his hands and twitched silently.
I saw Doctor Mo clearly from beginning to end: "..."
The old monk was in so much pain, Mo Li pressed his shoulder with one hand, and pressed the other hand to the affected area. With a warm internal force, the pain was relieved a little, and then a forceful force brought the stiff and immobile muscles back.
The old monk leaned back and touched his neck subconsciously.
The aftertaste of the pain is still there, but the neck can turn naturally.
Mo Li wanted to give him blood, so he solved the dumb point.
The old monk was still in shock, opened his mouth and asked, "Are you a doctor?"
After I finished speaking, I found that I could speak, and suddenly asked again tremblingly: "You, are you really Meng Guoshi?"
Meng Qi glanced at the abbot sideways, the familiar cold gaze made the old monk's legs go weak, and he knelt on the ground with a thud. Then, because he knelt too hard, his knees hurt, he couldn't support his body at all, and he fell to the ground.
After Mo Li heard the sound, his brows stretched a little.
Not broken.
Not dislocated either.
Let's say that Doctor Mo saw that the situation was not good just now, and he used his inner strength to hold an old monk in the air, otherwise it would be hard to say what would happen if he came directly.
The deputy commander of Jinyiwei on the side: "..."
What should he say? Could it be said that the National Teacher is really clever, and planned for a rainy day. This time he showed up with a doctor by his side to avoid scaring people to death
Gong Jun thought to himself, he wouldn't flatter Meng Qi! Don't let him say such words!
Although flattery is common in officialdom, it is good to do it! Meng Qi was the national teacher of the previous dynasty. His temperament was difficult to distinguish between joy and anger. He also had a big hatred with Jin Yiwei. No amount of flattery could save his life.
"How could it be a national teacher?" The old monk couldn't care about the pain in his knees. He looked back at Gong Jun and then at Mo Li, as if he wanted to get a negative answer from these two.
However, neither Mo Li nor Gong Jun gave him what he wanted.
They are very clear about Meng Qi's identity.
Whether the old monk believes it or not, it has nothing to do with them. Gong Jun didn't take this old monk seriously, Mo Li was more concerned about another thing.
"Why is this place called Bamboo Sound Valley?" Mo Li asked Gong Jun kindly.
"At that time, there was a palace on the Dragon Claw Peak, and ordinary people were not allowed to enter. There were not as many Taoist temples as they are now. They were all family temples built by the powerful. Some monks and Taoists were raised to pray for their ancestors to chant scriptures and pray for their clansmen. Naturally, people who enter the mountain will not run away. Go to the temples of other surnames to play incense. Liuhe Temple used to belong to a powerful minister, but after being raided and seized the title, the temple was empty, and it was easy to do things. At that time, there was no Crescent Moon Temple, only Liuhe Temple, and Liuhe Temple was originally It's not here, it's in another nearby valley. Emperor Chen Li sent someone to demolish the temple completely and rebuild it here. These two places are close by nature, until the trees here are lush and the valley over there is luxuriant. After being burned once, and the mountain road was changed, it will be difficult for future generations to distinguish."
Meng Qi brought the secrets from hundreds of years ago one by one, as if seeing it with his own eyes, Gong Jun became more and more puzzled.
"Is there any evidence for such a statement? Was it said by the monk who was chanting scriptures in Shangyun Mountain?"
"These people have long since turned into dead bones. Besides, the family temple is strictly guarded, how can they walk around in the mountains at will?" Meng Qi shook his head and said, "And when Emperor Chen Li was in power, he recruited hard labor for the construction of the imperial mausoleum, and he harmed the vicinity of Taijing by him. It's hard to live without the people, and these people either died of exhaustion or were killed. One imperial mausoleum, several suspicious tombs. No matter which mausoleum was built, none of the servants returned alive, where is there any evidence?"
Gong Jun almost asked: Then how did you know
He said with a sullen face: "What the national teacher said is unfounded and unsubstantiated, and it is hard to believe."
It's not that he really doesn't believe it, but he simply doesn't want to get involved in the muddy waters of this stall, and he doesn't want any jade seals.
Meng Qi saw through Gong Jun's little abacus at a glance.
Joke, he said so much, he just wanted to use this deputy commander of Jin Yiwei.
- Want to run? You can't escape when you run home!
Meng Qi winked at Mo Li, he believed that the doctor would definitely understand what he meant.
Mo Li found that he seemed to be on a black boat, and inexplicably became an accomplice of Meng Qi who threatened others. In front of others, Meng Qi can't be demolished yet, and he has no choice. It seems that he can only be an accomplice.
Mo Li calmed down and reminded: "Deputy Commander Gong, why don't you talk to this master?"
Gong Jun subconsciously looked at the old monk. The latter was tossed like a bird in shock. Hearing Mo Li's words, he met Gong Jun's sharp eyes again, trembling all over, and fell directly to the ground.
This act of self-admission completely confirmed what Meng Qi said.
"It turned out to be the Mausoleum of Emperor Li?" Gong Jun murmured, "The craftsman who secretly colluded with the monks in the temple is not a rebel who wants to rebel? Just a greedy person who wants to dig treasures?"
The jade seal is gone, and the rebellion can't be caught, and all the achievements he is ready to make have flown!
The deputy commander of the palace was very disappointed.
"Cough, not necessarily." Mo Li said slowly.
Gong Jun raised his eyes upon hearing this. Look suspicious.
Mo Li said calmly: "I wonder if the deputy commander of the palace knows where the rumors about the treasures of Emperor Li's Mausoleum in Jianghu come from?"
"It seems to be the ancestor of Qingwu..."
Halfway through his words, Gong Jun paused abruptly, his eyes slightly changed.
Qingwu Patriarch had an apprentice who worked for the King of Heaven.
Although people in Jianghu place great importance on the inheritance of the master's sect, the fact is that the apprentice is often out of the master's control. Which faction has never produced a rebellious villain? There are too many people who have learned martial arts and have done bad things outside. If they are picking flowers, stealing secrets, or assassinating members of the right way, they will be "cleaned up", robbing rich households is called acting for the sky, and taking refuge in the government is called Gan Weiying. The latter two will not be shouted and killed, no matter how big the trouble is, they will be kicked out of the division.
Now that Jiangnan and Jiangbei are in their own hands, what does it mean to serve a god-given king who claims to be a rebel army? Zhao Zangfeng, the ancestor of Qingwu, has such an apprentice, and only the people in the government who deal with him care about it.
Gong Jun didn't put the hat of "rebellion" on the head of Qingwu ancestors because of this incident. In times of trouble, it was very common for the disciples of major sects to separate to serve the major forces.
Learn the arts of literature and martial arts, sell to the emperor's family, seek profit and fame, that's all,
Now that I think about it more carefully, Gong Jun feels that something is wrong.
"What the two of you mean is that Zhao Zangfeng discovered the treasure of Emperor Li's Mausoleum. After digging for a few days, he found that it was too dangerous. Now you want someone to replace him as a ghost to explore the tomb's organs?" Gong Jun asked deliberately.
Mo Li found that Meng Qi was holding his hands and didn't speak, and he looked like an expert in the world, and reluctantly answered again: "This is the easiest purpose to think of, but things shouldn't be so simple."
The game has only just begun.
Qingwu ancestor did not take the next step, and the rest could only guess at the empty chessboard.
Gong Jun's expression was very ugly.
No matter what the conspiracy is, now that there is such a big disturbance in Liuhe Temple, and the roof of the house has been demolished, the ancestor of Qingwu must have known. After all, there is Emperor Li's Mausoleum below the temple. Other Jianghu people don't know and haven't arrived here yet. How could the ancestor of Qingwu not pay attention to the changes in the temple.
Gong Jun picked up the old monk with a dark face, and asked, "Which one of the monks in the temple belongs to the ancestor of Qingwu?"
"Old Na really doesn't know!"
The abbot suddenly wailed, arguing that he had really found a fallen monastery at random, but unexpectedly, he encountered people who pretended to be craftsmen with ulterior motives, and they also discovered that beneath the monastery was the Mausoleum of Emperor Li.
"... They know martial arts, and they said that they would give me some gold after the success. I just want to bring some money and go to Jiangnan to be a rich family member, buy a few acres of land, and live a peaceful life."
The old monk no longer needs to be called a monk. He cried very pitifully.
Mo Li originally had some sympathy, but saw Gong Jun's expression of contempt.
"If I hadn't gone home, I would have lived a long time. I am the only surviving son of the fallen prince!"
Gong Jun couldn't help but sarcastically said, "The altar in your hand belongs to someone else, what about that monk?"
The old monk was stagnant for a while, and then cried: "On the day the Chu Dynasty fell, what was the appearance of the capital in the capital, do you still use the old man to say it? There are as many as you want, and you can just pick up the corpses."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Gong Jun said with a sneer, "The monk on your ultimatum is from Taijing, not a monk from a very distant hometown. No one who knew the original owner has appeared for so many years, so it's quite a coincidence that you found it. Now, not only the brothers and sisters from the same lineage, including the master, are all dead, acquaintances are gone, and they are still about the same age as me... Just slapped on the corpse?"
The old monk immediately changed his tune and said, "No, in fact, this ultimatum is fake. I found someone to buy it."
"Who is it? This official knows all the forged Du Yi and Lu Yin near Taijing."
"No, it's a Jianghu person..." The old monk defended with sweat profusely, "Yes, he is actually a Taoist priest, surnamed Ning."
Mo Li immediately realized that he was talking about Ning Changyuan.
As a result, Gong Jun refuted the old monk's sophistry in one bite.
"Joke! You read the government's wanted document and made it up!" Gong Jun said sharply, "Sixteen years ago, Ning Changyuan was still studying swordsmanship in the Tianshan Mountains, so how could he forge the ultimatum for you?"
Mo Li used his inner strength to transmit sound to Meng Qi to enter the secret.
"Brother Meng, why did this deputy commander of Jinyiwei get very angry when he mentioned Ning Changyuan?"
"I'm not sure, maybe it's sympathy?" Meng Qi also began to whisper to Mo Li, "When I was in Yongzhou, I heard a lot of martial arts sects talking to Jianghu people. Ning Changyuan, who specializes in fake road guides, is The number one swordsman in the world."
Ning Changyuan's martial arts are indeed very high, not only that, this person's mind is also very tenacious, very like the kind of swordsman who insists on his own way. It's just that his way of teaching is different from other swordsmen. Forging documents or something, it sounds very popular.
"Although Qingwu Patriarch is the number one expert in Jianghu, someone like Ning Changyuan is obviously a generation behind Qingwu Patriarch. Jianghu people like to talk from all over the world, so I was in a tea stall. I heard someone competing for who is the number one player in the world after 30 years."
Meng Qi was very interested in what he said, and Mo Li listened very easily.
-Because no matter how you pull it, it won't get you on your head.
"Have they lifted Ning Changyuan?"
"He is one, and there is Young Master Jinfeng."
Mo Li remembered that Young Master Jin Feng who desperately said that he was ill and insisted on arresting him and pulling his hat, he coughed lightly and said, "Young Master Jin Feng's luck is a bit lacking.
If you bump into someone you can't mess with, you may not live to 30 years later.
Meng Qi thought about it and agreed.
"In addition to the so-called rising stars of various schools, I also heard an interesting statement. Many people think that it is difficult to say the number one master in 30 years, but they do not agree that the ancestor of Qingwu is the number one in today's martial arts."
"They know that my teacher is still alive?" Mo Li asked instinctively.
"It's not Qin... Mr. Qin."
Meng Qi took a hard time adding the honorific title of old gentleman to Qin Lu.
There is no direct connection between age and seniority, so he has to follow the doctor's name.
"It's not Mr. Qin, many of them have never heard of the name of the mysterious doctor." Meng Qi changed his words and returned to the topic, "The person they are talking about is the deputy commander of the palace in front of you. ."
"Is he so famous?" Mo Li was really surprised this time.
Gong Jun's martial arts is definitely a first-class master in the arena, but he can't be called an absolute master at all.
However, over time, with the increase of age, the internal strength becomes deeper, and it is really possible to compete for the title of master by making up for the shortcomings.
Mo Li thought about it, and then heard Meng Qi explain: "No, the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, Gong Jun, has no name in the arena, and they are touting a mysterious knife master, a person from Taijing, whose identity is unknown, every time he appears They are all covered with black scarves. It is said that this person's swordsmanship is extremely fast, unpredictable, the light of the sword is cyan, and he can shoot several knives in an instant, and the traces of the blade are just like bamboo knots. ', Aside from the so-called knotted knife marks, who do you think you look like?"
Ink carp: "… "
Did you miss something when you couldn't let Gong Jun's knife slash against the wall just now
Meng Qi continued enthusiastically: "Because the Bamboo Swordsman became famous very early, I heard about it vaguely when I was a national teacher in Taijing, but now that I think about it, Gong Jun can be said to be famous as a young man, and he made a name for himself at the age of eighteen. , but he was very calm, and he saw himself very clearly. The opponents he was looking for were all of the same strength. To this day, people in all corners of the world think that Bamboo Swordsman is at least fifty years old, and he has never once in his life. If you lose, your strength should not be underestimated.”
Then, without waiting for Mo Li to react, Meng Qi added another sentence.
"By the way, there is also a name on the rivers and lakes called the Three Friends of Suihan, which refers to Songya of the Spring Mountain School, Mei Jushi of the Tianshan School, and the Mysterious Bamboo Swordsman."
"Is the three of them related?" Mo Li's expression froze.
Songya is a guy who kills innocent people indiscriminately. If Gong Jun is friends with him, Mo Li will have to correct his views on this deputy commander.
"No, they have nothing to do with each other, maybe they haven't met each other. Good deeds in the rivers and lakes like to put people with similar nicknames together, and then call them a unified name, I think it's easy to remember. What South Sword and North Sword? , Fourth Young Master of Wulin, etc. The most bizarre thing is to have a ranking. For example, the fourth Young Master of Wulin is ranked first by Young Master Jinfeng. I don't know what the other three are thinking, but they may have fought several times in order to call them. "
Mo Li was speechless, seeing the life of Jianghu people once again.
Gong Jun asked the poor old monk so much that he didn't dare to speak again. When he turned around, he found that Mo Li and Meng Qi moved their lips slightly, but no sound came out, and knew that they were entering the secret through sound transmission.
Not only was he whispering, but he was also very happy to say it—don't ask how Gong Jun knew it, just look at Meng Qi's expression, he used to be like an indifferent and arrogant person from outside the world, but now he's a bit human, with a light expression on his face Smile.
Gong Jun thought to himself that he could not be fooled and could not continue to stay in Liuhe Temple!
"I see that Meng Guo's teacher is complete, and I can rest assured. I need to go back to Beijing quickly and tell Shangguan about this."
After saying that, he was about to go out.
Meng Qi didn't stop him.
Gong Jun was surprised, his back tightened, and he suddenly turned around and rushed towards the window.
Then he broke through the window, ran faster than a rabbit, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Mo Li looked at Meng Qi: "Aren't you going to chase?"
"Isn't the doctor not chasing after him?" Meng Qi said with his hands closed.
At the same time, the corners of their lips raised slightly, their eyes met, and their smiles deepened.
"Since the doctor and I have something in mind, why don't you talk about it?"
They are still using voice transmission to speak secretly, and they are not afraid of being heard.
The author has something to say:
The good people on the rivers and lakes like to pull together people with similar nicknames, and then come up with a unified name
- Forced groups
—Forcibly order the group members to compete with each other in popularity
