Mysterious Martial Arts: The Record of the Swordsman
Chapter 188 King Qin sweeps 6 together
Chapter 188 Qin King Sweeps Liuhe
Sitting in the secluded hall at night to watch Yuquan, listening to every bit of it, the Luo Mansion is dark and silent at this time, only a few people are alone in this secluded hall.Accompanied by this old house that has gone through ups and downs for a hundred years, whether it is the former family of Zanying or the tyrants who are now entrenched in the rivers and lakes, they have spent many memories in this mansion, and they are also here to witness The time is like the rise and fall of duckweed.
"The three of you are so kind, Jiang naturally has no reason to refuse but not to accept, but I'm sorry that there are some things that I dare not promise lightly..."
just what?Rebellion is a killing thing!
A rebellion with someone who doesn't know the details is a matter of kicking the head like a ball. Not everyone in the world has the iron certificate of the alchemy to avoid death and escape from the wrath of the princes. It's terrible. Even if someone dies, if you don't avoid it, you will bring disaster to the world.
Ever since meeting Zao Wou-ki on a narrow road, Jiang Wen felt that there were shadows of Zao Wou-ki everywhere in the world.
A lunatic who plans the world as a chessboard, loses heroes as pawns, and treats the common people as worthless. The plot ten years ago has created countless corpses and bloody seas and empty ghost towns. With Jiang Wen's character, he was determined not to get along with him peacefully.
Jiang Wen knew that disturbing the world is suffering, but the people of Li are especially suffering, so Shang Kexi is not worthy of letting him draw his sword.The body of Jiang Wen's sword is now as heavy as a thousand pounds. The more something is cut off suddenly, the more firmly it is wrapped around. He does not hope that the sword in his hand will be so cold, but he hopes that it is a life-saving sword. The human sword is like the force that drives him to set out from the Fuzhou government office and break through all the puzzles with one force...
Jiang Wen was thinking about the intentions of the few people, while guarding against a possible conspiracy by Zao Wou-ki.
Although Wu Liuqi is the commander-in-chief of Rao Town, but he was born in a humble background and has been frustrated for a long time. Once he finds an opportunity to bring down Enshan in the past, he will naturally take risks and fight hard.
As the leader of the Lingnan Green Forest, Luo Yuantong has always been arrogant, but now that he is being forced by many people to make a move, it is understandable for him to take advantage of the situation and turn against him.But these two bitter and bitter people did not accept him. On the contrary, judging from the current situation, the only person who really insisted on pulling him into the group was the old Taoist who was dying in front of him.
Who is Ying Laodao?
Jiang Wen didn't know much about the grievances between their masters and apprentices, but the old Taoist Ying's attitude was a bit weird. Thinking about it now, he seemed to transfer his hatred for his apprentices to the Pingnan Palace too smoothly, and Take the initiative to pull up the head to strengthen the team...
In the vast side hall, the complex pattern of the dark stone tablet flashed. Jiang Wen glanced out of the corner of his eye and found a structure similar to that of the "Nine Serene Scriptures" on the tablet. When he was about to focus on identifying it, he found The traces are like an actor at a moment when the strings are dull, and Mo Ran quietly recedes to cover his face with a colorful dress with sleeves.
"I didn't expect that the bloody storm in Southern Shaolin would be just for this ancient monument..."
Before Jiang Wen's eyes flashed the ruins of the Xilu Kingdom, the old monk in the Songshan Pagoda Forest, the blood-stained Muren Alley in the South Shaolin, and the strange martial arts that once entangled Hong Wending and Yankong Monk, like ghosts and demons that could never be dispelled , he sighed faintly, and noticed that the earth suddenly shook again.
The shaking of the ground at the beginning was fairly stable, only enough to cause ripples on the water surface, so soon Jiang Wen's attention was focused on the three people with different shapes and stern faces in front of him.
"It's fine if you want me to join, but Jiang has a condition."
Jiang Wen boldly promised, pointing to the old Taoist beside him, "I still have many things that I don't know, so I will ask the old man to explain my doubts and accompany me for a while on this trip."
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Wen found that the expressions of the three were different, and it was obvious that their thoughts were not consistent.
Luo Yuantong showed a clear expression on his face, staring at Ying Laodao, as if he wanted to ask him if this was his arrangement; Wu Liuqi held his sword and pondered, as if he was thinking about Jiang Wen's intentions, determined to ignore other people's thoughts; Ying Laodao, who called the names hastily, looked surprised and couldn't speak.
With the case of Li Xinghe first, Jiang Wen also had some doubts about this old Taoist Ying with a strange background.
He could barely think that Yan Yongchun's experience was a coincidence, but he never believed that this old Taoist possessed some miraculous skill of looking forward to Qi, who could be like himself at a glance, and he could see that Yan Yongchun's girl had extraordinary aptitude!
"...Forget it, the old man agreed."
At this moment, the shaking in the hall suddenly intensified. Jiang Wen suddenly felt his body being pulled by a certain force, and his body was bouncing up and down uncontrollably. Like waves and torrents, they came oncoming, broke through the mud and swamp, and submerged the solid ground under their feet.
"The bronze ship was born, and the town was removed from its place. Quickly lead people out of the city through the secret road!"
For some reason, Luo Yuantong stared wide-eyed, and suddenly mentioned the huge bronze boat in the legend of the Xijiang River in Guangzhou, that weird thing covered in copper and rust, with no sails or oars.
After Luo Yuantong had spoken, he pushed the door away, and Wu Liuqi moved the wooden pillars in the back hall without saying a word, revealing a dark underground cave, and jumped down.
As soon as Wu Liuqi left, the martial arts practitioners had already entered the hall, and they also saw the huge, thick, strong and strange black dragon stone tablet, but everyone looked straight ahead without any scruples, and there was no reaction to seeing this tablet. This is very different from the rumored origin of the secret Dragon Form Fist.
"Miss Yan, Miss Yuan, Miss Luo, the three of you are here too."
Martial arts people jumped into the secret passage and disappeared, but when Jiang Wen turned around, he found three female heroes standing behind Jiang Wen, "Hurry up too, the soldiers of the Pingnan Palace may attack the palace at any time, here is the I'll stop."
The situation is getting more and more critical, Shang Kexi obviously intends to connive and drive them to one place and catch them all, so at this time, they sent troops to trap Luo's mansion but did not attack. I don't know how long this secret road can be hidden.
Yuan Ziyi seemed to want to say something, but Yan Yongchun said first, "Master Jiang, don't worry, Hei Hao has been brought here, and Prince Pingnan must pay a price if he wants to invade Luo's Mansion."
"What? Here comes the dark one?"
Jiang Wen looked up in surprise, and found that besides the dark clouds and the setting sun on the top of Luo's mansion, there was also a misty mist, soaring and floating on it, as if he was a little jealous of the people in the mansion, so It has not been settled like Zhangqiugang Village for a long time.
Jiang Wen didn't even need to think about it, he knew that this matter was done by Ying Laodao, and only someone like him who knew the basics and read a lot could do it.
They gradually heard the noisy footsteps of martial arts people in the distance, and also saw the loud fire and the sound of armor outside Luo's mansion on a rainy night, and finally stopped chatting about other things, turned over and jumped into the secret passage, and the soldiers outside the mansion looked like crazy The miserable roar and the sound of fighting out of thin air slowly came.
…………
Needles can be heard in the dark tunnel, and no one dares to speak more to consume precious oxygen. There are only countless footsteps, light or heavy, one after another, and countless figures are stepping forward one after another, heading towards the dark and indistinguishable underground world together. Go deep.
Jiang Wen escorted the women to the end slowly, and in a hurry, he also met Zhou Long who was walking with Wen Tailai on his arm. Both of them limped and gritted their teeth, and they only nodded silently with Jiang Wen and looked at each other before moving on. okay.
A similar underground tunnel, Jiang Wen, was lucky enough to walk through it in Fuzhou City. Both walls are covered with man-made traces of adze chiseling and shoveling. A few miles away, Jiang Wen found some unidentified debris on the ground under his feet, which seemed to be scattered Jomon tiles, clay pottery pieces, and many hard wood cores that had been worn to fine edges.
Jiang Wenzheng was puzzled, thinking that there was really such a secret passage leading directly to the outside of Luo's mansion, and he felt a damp and cold water vapor rushing towards his face, which made his whole body tremble. It's a bit colder than ice crystals in winter.
Before people could stop their pace, a cold light flickered in front of their dim eyes, and they felt their feet stepping into the muddy water. People fell one after another, but the thin air suddenly became fresh. Obviously, this area is hidden in the ground The space in the room is connected with the outside world, but looking around with the gloomy light, I can only see a calm lake with many ancient wooden pillars and stone foundations scattered on the surface of the lake.
People in the martial arts were amazed, they never thought that there would be such a vast and gloomy world in such a deep underground, but Jiang Wen resolutely threw the question to Ying Laodao who accompanied the team.
"Senior Ying, what is this place?"
Ying Laodao's old and thin face was also full of surprise, but his old tone was somewhat clear, and he sighed towards Jiang Wen, stroking his beard.
"If the old man's guess is correct, all of you are only one mile away from the Luo Mansion, and you are now under the City God's Temple in Guangzhou Mansion."
"Du Town God's Temple?"
Jiang Wen felt that the name sounded familiar, and then suddenly remembered that the beggars of the Guandi Society once told him that Wu Liuqi had also appeared outside the City God's Temple before he disappeared. The Luo family so far?
In such a vast underground world, there is a lake quietly. The remaining shallow water surface is covered with wooden structures and a large number of residual tiles. There are countless wooden piers and pillars. There are three types of tiles, tiles, and tiles. Therefore, after an unknown number of years, I can still imagine the scene that was very popular at the time, but I don’t know why it is hidden in the underground cave until now.
The martial arts practitioners couldn't find any other way along the underground lake, let alone how to leave this quiet place like hell.Jiang Wen found that a group of people behaved abnormally silently, while the rest searched in twos and threes until a cry of exclamation rang out in the wonders of the cave.
"There are ghosts! There are ghosts here!"
The oppressive environment magnified the fear, one after another was sudden rapid breathing and the sound of weapons unsheathed, and they walked towards the place where the screams came from, but they also made terrified sounds in unison.
Because in the dark cave, on the slippery and sticky gray wall, a huge monster lurks impressively against the mountain!
It is pale and bloated like stalactites all over, with a sharp fish head, but with a wrinkled human face on it, it is grinning fiercely at people.The remaining body of the monster stretching in the cave is still very long, flat and coiled like a catfish, with a tail raised high like a snake, covered with thick tumors and fat, and its posture is very scary.
What is even more frightening is that behind the gills and under the two fins of the catfish body, there is a string of slender and unique arms of uneven size without warning. Although they are all shaped like human arms, they are not human at all. The proper bones and joints are facing in all directions like a halberd. At the same time, the skin on the back is stretched out to form a pair of huge fleshy wings, like a kite flying in the air. The ferocious power subdues a large group of rusty bronze figures with long beaks, long ears, short necks and long hair.
Jiang Wen leapt over the crowd with a single body, and the awe-inspiring sword intent pierced through his body. The long sword in his hand had not yet been sheathed, and people could feel the sharp stabbing pain. However, this illusion was fleeting, because Jiang Wen's next second Without any scruples, he came to the front of the giant monster, and put his palm on the pale and slimy body.
"Everyone, don't panic, this is just a stone statue of a god carved for an unknown age. It has been covered with stalactites for a long time, and it has changed into such a terrifying appearance."
Jiang Wen knocked on the corner of the stone statue, and it made a sound as clear as gold and stone hitting, which also proved that this statue had been hidden in a cave for many years, so that it was covered by the stone wall with a stalactite appearance.
"Bronze boats coming out of the water is a great omen, and now only this place can ensure safety."
Ying Laodao also came to the front of the crowd, and comforted everyone with words, "Just as Daoist Jiang said, don't panic, this is just a statue of Bingyi God from the Qin Dynasty, which has been enshrined in front of the Qin Dynasty's slipway for more than a thousand years. The Tongshan slang people under their feet have never done any harm."
In order to prove his point, Ying Laodao also pointed to the eyes of the monster-like statue and said, "In the pre-Qin period, it was said that He Bo was ferocious and had a violent temperament. It was said that Yi once shot his left eye with an arrow, and his power was unpredictable. Like a single eye, it is the proof."
Bingyi, formerly known as "Feng Yi", is the legendary water god of the Yellow River. According to Ge Hong's "Baopuzi Shigui Pian", he drowned while crossing the river, so he was appointed by the Emperor of Heaven to manage the river. "Han Feizi Nei Chu Shuo [-]" said that a man in the state of Qi wanted to invite the king of Qi to see He Bo, so he built an altar on the water, and soon a big fish emerged from the water, which was He Bo.It can be seen that the shape of Hebo is such a human-faced fish body, so Duan Chengshi directly said that Hebo is a human-faced fish-body in "Youyang Zazu", and travels on two dragons.
But the question is, in such a deep and difficult underground cave, why would someone spend so much time and energy to carve such a huge statue of Frozen End?
"Master Jiang, this matter is quite twists and turns, let me explain it slowly. Do you know the "Guangdong Tongzhi" compiled by Huang Zuo, a wise man?"
Ying Laodao probably saw Jiang Wen's doubts, and slowly explained the reason.
"The book records a strange incident. In the November of Wuwu in Jiajing, there was a big banyan tree five feet behind the Guangzhou City God's Temple. It had been decayed for a long time. Its roots were more than ten feet below the soil, and there were holes, which were dug by Taoists. Dongran said: There must be something hidden in it."
"When you send it out, you get dozens of scull boards, all of which are opposite to each other. There are innumerable numbers, and they are close to the statues of gods. They are sealed. It is also the case that the scull boards have been completed since the Tang and Song Dynasties."
Ying Laodao explained it in great detail, almost knowing the content of this passage by heart, and then added, "The first record of the ancient book's 'Jun wood planks' are arranged in pairs, and the number is 'innumerable', so Huang Zuo deduced that this It’s because there was nothing wrong with the “scull board”, and people at the time thought it was a miracle and didn’t continue to dig, but they made a mistake in the most important place...”
Ying Laodao paused for a moment, and finally said the answer he had kept in his heart for a long time.
"This place is not a relic of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Since the Tang Dynasty, sea sand has accumulated and the sea has changed. The South China Sea has already retreated to the position of Fuxu Ancient Ferry. It is Zhangqiugang Village, where the old man has lived in seclusion for a long time. This place should be the ruins of the slipway between the Qin and Han Dynasties!"
Ying Laodao's words spread endlessly, and the people in the martial arts world began to whisper, no matter what, it was hard to believe that what they saw before them turned out to be a pre-Qin ancient site thousands of years ago!
But of course Jiang Wen knew about this, and he also knew that later generations would excavate a shipway relic of an unprecedented scale in the Qin Dynasty under the City God’s Temple in Guangzhou, which was eventually considered a huge shipyard. A rectangle of about 30 meters and a width of about 11 meters from north to south, there are three shipbuilding berths arranged in parallel in this area, and even a wood processing site.
This archaeological discovery shocked the whole country. The excavated "Chuanchang site" is located 5 meters below the surface. The shipyard is covered with accumulations since the early Western Han Dynasty, and the bottom is gray-black sedimentary clay.Sampling analysis shows that it contains a large number of marine organisms, and it is preliminarily inferred that it belongs to marine strata, indicating that this place used to be a shallow sea, so when the shipyard was built here in the Qin Dynasty, it had become a sedimentary mudflat.
The three slipways that have been discovered are horizontally arranged in parallel, and a possible slope-type launching slide has been found in the west.Regarding the construction method of the shipbuilding slipway, based on the ambiguity of the shipbuilding technology in the pre-Qin period, the excavators speculated that the slipway was combined with a slideway, which was shaped like a modern railway track and consisted of sleepers, sliding boards and wooden piers.
In the known excavation work, copper coins from the Qin to Han dynasties were found in the ruins of the slipway, and the latest one was the four baht and a half two copper coins of Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty. The conclusion is that the shipyard was finally abandoned and filled in the Wenjing period of the early Han Dynasty. The possibility that the shipyard was first built in the early Han Dynasty cannot be ruled out.
But Jiang Wen remembers very clearly that the age of the shipbuilding workshop is still a vague matter, and no absolute dating data was found in the trial excavation, only relying on the radiocarbon dating of No. 1 slipway, the date is judged to be 240 BC ±90 years.
Furthermore, based on the overlapping relationship of the strata and the age characteristics of the unearthed artifacts, combined with relevant documents and historical materials, the excavators analyzed the date when the shipyard was first built, the time when it was abandoned and filled, and the relationship between the construction of the shipyard and the major historical events that occurred in Guangzhou at that time. Correlation, made a preliminary inference.
But the biggest doubt about this relic appears here.
It should be known that if it is assumed that the shipyard was first built in the early Han Dynasty, this period was the time when Zhao Tuo ruled South of the Five Ridges.However, during Zhao Tuo's reign, there were no records of water activities.According to archaeological findings, some people also built a large palace near the shipyard in the early Han Dynasty, and the scale was large and the construction was very particular. The shipyard site was also filled in because it was within the scope of the building site.
Therefore, the function of this slipway is somewhat ambiguous, and it can also be considered that the passageway that has been excavated is a subsidiary part of the large palace built by Zhao Tuo after he proclaimed himself emperor.
To put it another way, assuming that Zhao Tuo built such a large-scale shipbuilding factory out of military or water transportation and trade needs, it is unreasonable and impossible to abandon and fill it up before Wenjing.However, there were no fierce and brutal water wars in South Vietnam at that time, and it was not possible to establish such an "arsenal" near the palace.
Therefore, judging from this perspective, some people think that this slipway was originally built as a shipbuilding base for the Qin army who arrived in Panyu, mainly for the unification war that lasted for many years, and it is a very natural thing to rush to manufacture urgently needed ships.Therefore, this shipbuilding factory was first built during the unification of Lingnan in the Qin Dynasty; it was gradually abandoned and refilled in the Wenjing period of the early Western Han Dynasty, that is, after Zhao Tuo of Nanyue separatist and proclaimed himself emperor, it was no longer needed.
However, the above conclusions about the ruins being built in the Qin Dynasty are mostly based on conjectures, and no more definite clues have been found, nor can it prove the necessity of building a slipway on a land that can be used to build palaces. It laid the groundwork for the later speculative debate.It seems that one day, for some reason, the discoverers who were so convincing began to spare no effort to overthrow the previous research conclusions, and the more senior and professional archaeological experts, they will come up with an astonishingly unified refutation point of view after in-depth research!
According to later accounts, at the appraisal meeting of the site held at the excavation site in March 1976, an old professor from the South China Institute of Technology who was in charge of the excavation spoke on behalf of the site, and strongly stated that this is the architectural site of the Nanyue Kingdom, and it should be the Nanyue Wangtai or Li Palace, and asked geographers to confirm whether this is Panyu Mountain or the beach, so as to avoid deep damage to this five-meter underground relic and try to ensure the integrity of the relic.
The wind of public opinion changed quickly, and the uproarious archeology of the slipway gradually turned into a dispute between the slipway and the palace, and the archaeological work was forced to stop.
In 1980, a senior professor of the Department of Geography of South China Normal University further raised strong doubts in an article on the historical geography of Guangzhou.
He pointed out that the terrain around the "shipyard" is relatively high, "the question of how to change from the 'shipyard' to the corner of the 'Palace of the King of Yue' has not been answered."Furthermore, "it is suspected that it is not the ruins of the shipbuilding workshop, but more likely to be the architectural ruins related to the ancient city of Panyu or the city of Guangzhou".
In 1997, a researcher at the Guangdong Provincial Museum also published an article "Guangzhou "Shipbuilding Workshop" Is Actually an Architectural Relic" after many years of research, arguing that the "shipway theory" does not conform to historical facts and should be a dry-walled building. Meaning, it will only destroy the original precious relics.
However, the theory of the slipway still exists, and the application for excavation has also drifted into the hands of the cultural relics department like snowflakes. From April to May 2000, a researcher and architectural archaeologist at the Institute of Archeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences serially published the article "Distinguishing the Palace of the Nanyue King--Discussion with the "Shuttle Theory"" in the "China Cultural Relics News", listing 4 reasons in detail, to The "Slipway Theory" refuted it, arguing that this site could not be a slipway, but the wooden building foundation of the palace ruins.
In response to the objector's refutation article, Professor Yang issued another reply article in August, arguing that the site of the Nanyue Palace Office should be named the site of the Palace Garden, and that the site of the ship berth is actually a large palace relic with both a view and a living function. Opinion intends to destroy cultural relics, "should bear all responsibilities thoroughly!"
A series of treacherous clues formed in Jiang Wen's mind, and his heartbeat that was pounding because he was close to the truth finally slowed down. He only felt that what Ying Laodao said was not the truth that Kuang Gu Shuo Jin had never discovered, It's just a fact that many people tried their best to hide, only one child who didn't know the heights of the world and dared to say that the emperor didn't wear clothes was missing.
"Senior Ying, you said this is a pre-Qin historical site...do you have any other evidence?"
Jiang Wen didn't know whether to refute or appreciate his truth-seeking, so he had to suppress the churning thoughts in his mind and wait for the other party to give an answer.
Ying Laodao, with a long face, was unwavering, and told Jiang Wen about a little-known history.
"Master Jiang, in the past Qin Shihuang dispatched 50 soldiers from the state captain Tu Sui to form five armies, one army to fortify the mountains of Tancheng, one army to guard the fortress of Jiuyi, one army to be in the capital of Panyu, one army to kill the territory of Nanye, one army The rest of the army is dry water. The other four armies are all warriors on foot, but the capital of Panyu is the water capital of Yue people. Its people have broken hair and tattoos, and the boats and boats are as dense as rain. It is unpredictable to gather and disperse suddenly. The people of Qin are not good at it. I haven’t made any achievements in shipbuilding for three years, and I’m trapped in the water city of Panyu, unable to move an inch.”
"Tu Sui was good at fighting. For three years, he didn't disarm his armor and rode his crossbows. He made it impossible for the supervisor to transfer his salary. He also dug a canal with his soldiers to open the grain road. He used a strange plan to make a water boat and rushed out of the city. He fought with the Yue people, and then killed the West. Mr. Ou translated it to the Song Dynasty. And the Yue people all entered the Congbo, where they lived with the beasts, and they would never be Qin captives."
Ying Laodao pointed to the desolate and dilapidated karst caves and lakes in front of him, as well as the desolate scene full of debris left to be dug, and said with admiration, "Tu Sui's trick is to build a boat underground here, waiting for an opportunity to attack and kill Yueren's water boats. Therefore, as early as before the Temple of the City God was established, as long as there was no trace of Guangzhou Mansion, as early as when this was still called Tu Sui City, there was already this ancient Qin shipway!"
This period of history was unheard of, but Tu Sui's man, Jiang Wen, had heard of it. When he was a lieutenant, Zhao Tuo, the later king of Nanyue, was only a lieutenant general. Unfortunately, because he was negligent in guarding against the Yue people's attack, he died in the end.This earth-shattering battle is recorded in "Huainanzi". The Yue people "attacked the Qin people at night, smashed them, killed Wei Tusui, and hundreds of thousands of corpses bleed."
However, this ancient slipway buried in the underground cave seems to still be telling his own story. The gigantic Frozen Giant Statue in front of him also carries the Qin people who grew up in the Yellow River Basin, entrusting the power of the Yellow River Water God to defeat the enemy. Unlimited expectations have been rooted in this land forever.
"Senior Ying, I still don't quite understand what you mean. Even if a huge boat can be built here that can crush the Yueren canoe, how can we transport the boat out of the ground?"
Jiang Wen expressed his doubts, but suddenly found that there seemed to be fewer people in the martial arts circle in front of him, as if they had evaporated silently from the underground with nowhere to escape. Even Yuan Ziyi, Yan Yongchun, and Luo Shuang'er didn't know when. disappeared.
Jiang Wen opened his mouth to ask, but Old Daoist Ying's expression was particularly secretive, with an indescribable look on his wrinkled face.
"Master Jiang, Shang Kexi has been coveting the Luo family's secret way for many years, and the miraculousness in it can't be explained clearly in a few words, and naturally it can't be seen through at a glance."
After finishing speaking, he stretched out his finger to the dark stone wall above his head, "In another three moments, just look there..."
As the voice slowly dissipated, everyone was surprised to find that the originally dark dome of the cave emitted a gleam of crystal light, as if the stone wall was being melted by the warm sun, turning into pieces of translucent jade, and countless drops of rain dripped from the top , also floated on people's faces one after another.
The light became clearer and clearer, and the dome of the cave became more unpredictable. Everyone was surprised to find that the top of their heads had not turned into any jade, but a large water curtain that stretched to the sky. , jagged.
"Isn't this place under the City God's Temple? Why do you see Dihe hanging upside down?!"
Someone exclaimed, fearing that at some point, tons of seawater would break through the fragile zenith and pour into this karst cave, turning it into an inescapable Zeguo.
But Ying Laodao reminded at the right time, "There is a secret passage ahead, leave it quickly, if you are late, you will be completely trapped underground, and you will never recover!"
Needless to say at this time, Jiang Wen saw the martial arts people hastily followed the instructions, filed in from the belly of the huge Bingyi stone statue, pushed away the bronze figures all over the ground and broke into a cave where they disappeared.
"Senior Ying, why don't you go?"
Jiang Wen looked at Old Daoist Ying and found something wrong in his expression.
After watching the martial arts people leave, Ying Laodao said to Jiang Wen mysteriously: "No hurry, this is not the place we are going to go. Since Master Jiang, you want to go with the old man, follow me to another place." let's go..."
"Aren't you going with them?" Jiang Wen asked deliberately.
But Old Taoist Ying replied inexplicably: "If you really want to join hands, why bother?"
The Qin Dynasty berth is now illuminated by the swaying light in the water, but there is a particularly conspicuous shadow slowly coming from the light, projected in the vague and uncertain cave, like a dark cloud that makes people feel particularly uneasy. A symbol of ominous arrival.
At this time, there were only the two of them left in the slipway cave, and the sound of the lake, sea and river above their heads became clearer, and it seemed that it would turn into a catastrophe at any moment.Old Taoist Ying dragged Jiang Wen to the location where the Bingyi Stone Statue was hidden, and walked to where they were supposed to go, but Jiang Wen couldn't help but look back at the sky for the last time.
It was an indescribably huge copper boat, floating wantonly in the gloomy and cold water. The interlaced appearance of rust and patterns, and the shape of aquatic plants and calcium carbonate had made it lose its originality over the long years. It looks like water slowly flowing in the upside-down ground river, like a pale old man who is silent.
But at the moment before his sight disappeared, Jiang Wen discovered from a certain angle that he should not have observed that the bronze boat did not seem to be walking alone, but attached to a darker, more mottled, and more indescribable On the shadow, it is about to be slowly dragged into the truly dark world of darkness...
(End of this chapter)
Sitting in the secluded hall at night to watch Yuquan, listening to every bit of it, the Luo Mansion is dark and silent at this time, only a few people are alone in this secluded hall.Accompanied by this old house that has gone through ups and downs for a hundred years, whether it is the former family of Zanying or the tyrants who are now entrenched in the rivers and lakes, they have spent many memories in this mansion, and they are also here to witness The time is like the rise and fall of duckweed.
"The three of you are so kind, Jiang naturally has no reason to refuse but not to accept, but I'm sorry that there are some things that I dare not promise lightly..."
just what?Rebellion is a killing thing!
A rebellion with someone who doesn't know the details is a matter of kicking the head like a ball. Not everyone in the world has the iron certificate of the alchemy to avoid death and escape from the wrath of the princes. It's terrible. Even if someone dies, if you don't avoid it, you will bring disaster to the world.
Ever since meeting Zao Wou-ki on a narrow road, Jiang Wen felt that there were shadows of Zao Wou-ki everywhere in the world.
A lunatic who plans the world as a chessboard, loses heroes as pawns, and treats the common people as worthless. The plot ten years ago has created countless corpses and bloody seas and empty ghost towns. With Jiang Wen's character, he was determined not to get along with him peacefully.
Jiang Wen knew that disturbing the world is suffering, but the people of Li are especially suffering, so Shang Kexi is not worthy of letting him draw his sword.The body of Jiang Wen's sword is now as heavy as a thousand pounds. The more something is cut off suddenly, the more firmly it is wrapped around. He does not hope that the sword in his hand will be so cold, but he hopes that it is a life-saving sword. The human sword is like the force that drives him to set out from the Fuzhou government office and break through all the puzzles with one force...
Jiang Wen was thinking about the intentions of the few people, while guarding against a possible conspiracy by Zao Wou-ki.
Although Wu Liuqi is the commander-in-chief of Rao Town, but he was born in a humble background and has been frustrated for a long time. Once he finds an opportunity to bring down Enshan in the past, he will naturally take risks and fight hard.
As the leader of the Lingnan Green Forest, Luo Yuantong has always been arrogant, but now that he is being forced by many people to make a move, it is understandable for him to take advantage of the situation and turn against him.But these two bitter and bitter people did not accept him. On the contrary, judging from the current situation, the only person who really insisted on pulling him into the group was the old Taoist who was dying in front of him.
Who is Ying Laodao?
Jiang Wen didn't know much about the grievances between their masters and apprentices, but the old Taoist Ying's attitude was a bit weird. Thinking about it now, he seemed to transfer his hatred for his apprentices to the Pingnan Palace too smoothly, and Take the initiative to pull up the head to strengthen the team...
In the vast side hall, the complex pattern of the dark stone tablet flashed. Jiang Wen glanced out of the corner of his eye and found a structure similar to that of the "Nine Serene Scriptures" on the tablet. When he was about to focus on identifying it, he found The traces are like an actor at a moment when the strings are dull, and Mo Ran quietly recedes to cover his face with a colorful dress with sleeves.
"I didn't expect that the bloody storm in Southern Shaolin would be just for this ancient monument..."
Before Jiang Wen's eyes flashed the ruins of the Xilu Kingdom, the old monk in the Songshan Pagoda Forest, the blood-stained Muren Alley in the South Shaolin, and the strange martial arts that once entangled Hong Wending and Yankong Monk, like ghosts and demons that could never be dispelled , he sighed faintly, and noticed that the earth suddenly shook again.
The shaking of the ground at the beginning was fairly stable, only enough to cause ripples on the water surface, so soon Jiang Wen's attention was focused on the three people with different shapes and stern faces in front of him.
"It's fine if you want me to join, but Jiang has a condition."
Jiang Wen boldly promised, pointing to the old Taoist beside him, "I still have many things that I don't know, so I will ask the old man to explain my doubts and accompany me for a while on this trip."
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Wen found that the expressions of the three were different, and it was obvious that their thoughts were not consistent.
Luo Yuantong showed a clear expression on his face, staring at Ying Laodao, as if he wanted to ask him if this was his arrangement; Wu Liuqi held his sword and pondered, as if he was thinking about Jiang Wen's intentions, determined to ignore other people's thoughts; Ying Laodao, who called the names hastily, looked surprised and couldn't speak.
With the case of Li Xinghe first, Jiang Wen also had some doubts about this old Taoist Ying with a strange background.
He could barely think that Yan Yongchun's experience was a coincidence, but he never believed that this old Taoist possessed some miraculous skill of looking forward to Qi, who could be like himself at a glance, and he could see that Yan Yongchun's girl had extraordinary aptitude!
"...Forget it, the old man agreed."
At this moment, the shaking in the hall suddenly intensified. Jiang Wen suddenly felt his body being pulled by a certain force, and his body was bouncing up and down uncontrollably. Like waves and torrents, they came oncoming, broke through the mud and swamp, and submerged the solid ground under their feet.
"The bronze ship was born, and the town was removed from its place. Quickly lead people out of the city through the secret road!"
For some reason, Luo Yuantong stared wide-eyed, and suddenly mentioned the huge bronze boat in the legend of the Xijiang River in Guangzhou, that weird thing covered in copper and rust, with no sails or oars.
After Luo Yuantong had spoken, he pushed the door away, and Wu Liuqi moved the wooden pillars in the back hall without saying a word, revealing a dark underground cave, and jumped down.
As soon as Wu Liuqi left, the martial arts practitioners had already entered the hall, and they also saw the huge, thick, strong and strange black dragon stone tablet, but everyone looked straight ahead without any scruples, and there was no reaction to seeing this tablet. This is very different from the rumored origin of the secret Dragon Form Fist.
"Miss Yan, Miss Yuan, Miss Luo, the three of you are here too."
Martial arts people jumped into the secret passage and disappeared, but when Jiang Wen turned around, he found three female heroes standing behind Jiang Wen, "Hurry up too, the soldiers of the Pingnan Palace may attack the palace at any time, here is the I'll stop."
The situation is getting more and more critical, Shang Kexi obviously intends to connive and drive them to one place and catch them all, so at this time, they sent troops to trap Luo's mansion but did not attack. I don't know how long this secret road can be hidden.
Yuan Ziyi seemed to want to say something, but Yan Yongchun said first, "Master Jiang, don't worry, Hei Hao has been brought here, and Prince Pingnan must pay a price if he wants to invade Luo's Mansion."
"What? Here comes the dark one?"
Jiang Wen looked up in surprise, and found that besides the dark clouds and the setting sun on the top of Luo's mansion, there was also a misty mist, soaring and floating on it, as if he was a little jealous of the people in the mansion, so It has not been settled like Zhangqiugang Village for a long time.
Jiang Wen didn't even need to think about it, he knew that this matter was done by Ying Laodao, and only someone like him who knew the basics and read a lot could do it.
They gradually heard the noisy footsteps of martial arts people in the distance, and also saw the loud fire and the sound of armor outside Luo's mansion on a rainy night, and finally stopped chatting about other things, turned over and jumped into the secret passage, and the soldiers outside the mansion looked like crazy The miserable roar and the sound of fighting out of thin air slowly came.
…………
Needles can be heard in the dark tunnel, and no one dares to speak more to consume precious oxygen. There are only countless footsteps, light or heavy, one after another, and countless figures are stepping forward one after another, heading towards the dark and indistinguishable underground world together. Go deep.
Jiang Wen escorted the women to the end slowly, and in a hurry, he also met Zhou Long who was walking with Wen Tailai on his arm. Both of them limped and gritted their teeth, and they only nodded silently with Jiang Wen and looked at each other before moving on. okay.
A similar underground tunnel, Jiang Wen, was lucky enough to walk through it in Fuzhou City. Both walls are covered with man-made traces of adze chiseling and shoveling. A few miles away, Jiang Wen found some unidentified debris on the ground under his feet, which seemed to be scattered Jomon tiles, clay pottery pieces, and many hard wood cores that had been worn to fine edges.
Jiang Wenzheng was puzzled, thinking that there was really such a secret passage leading directly to the outside of Luo's mansion, and he felt a damp and cold water vapor rushing towards his face, which made his whole body tremble. It's a bit colder than ice crystals in winter.
Before people could stop their pace, a cold light flickered in front of their dim eyes, and they felt their feet stepping into the muddy water. People fell one after another, but the thin air suddenly became fresh. Obviously, this area is hidden in the ground The space in the room is connected with the outside world, but looking around with the gloomy light, I can only see a calm lake with many ancient wooden pillars and stone foundations scattered on the surface of the lake.
People in the martial arts were amazed, they never thought that there would be such a vast and gloomy world in such a deep underground, but Jiang Wen resolutely threw the question to Ying Laodao who accompanied the team.
"Senior Ying, what is this place?"
Ying Laodao's old and thin face was also full of surprise, but his old tone was somewhat clear, and he sighed towards Jiang Wen, stroking his beard.
"If the old man's guess is correct, all of you are only one mile away from the Luo Mansion, and you are now under the City God's Temple in Guangzhou Mansion."
"Du Town God's Temple?"
Jiang Wen felt that the name sounded familiar, and then suddenly remembered that the beggars of the Guandi Society once told him that Wu Liuqi had also appeared outside the City God's Temple before he disappeared. The Luo family so far?
In such a vast underground world, there is a lake quietly. The remaining shallow water surface is covered with wooden structures and a large number of residual tiles. There are countless wooden piers and pillars. There are three types of tiles, tiles, and tiles. Therefore, after an unknown number of years, I can still imagine the scene that was very popular at the time, but I don’t know why it is hidden in the underground cave until now.
The martial arts practitioners couldn't find any other way along the underground lake, let alone how to leave this quiet place like hell.Jiang Wen found that a group of people behaved abnormally silently, while the rest searched in twos and threes until a cry of exclamation rang out in the wonders of the cave.
"There are ghosts! There are ghosts here!"
The oppressive environment magnified the fear, one after another was sudden rapid breathing and the sound of weapons unsheathed, and they walked towards the place where the screams came from, but they also made terrified sounds in unison.
Because in the dark cave, on the slippery and sticky gray wall, a huge monster lurks impressively against the mountain!
It is pale and bloated like stalactites all over, with a sharp fish head, but with a wrinkled human face on it, it is grinning fiercely at people.The remaining body of the monster stretching in the cave is still very long, flat and coiled like a catfish, with a tail raised high like a snake, covered with thick tumors and fat, and its posture is very scary.
What is even more frightening is that behind the gills and under the two fins of the catfish body, there is a string of slender and unique arms of uneven size without warning. Although they are all shaped like human arms, they are not human at all. The proper bones and joints are facing in all directions like a halberd. At the same time, the skin on the back is stretched out to form a pair of huge fleshy wings, like a kite flying in the air. The ferocious power subdues a large group of rusty bronze figures with long beaks, long ears, short necks and long hair.
Jiang Wen leapt over the crowd with a single body, and the awe-inspiring sword intent pierced through his body. The long sword in his hand had not yet been sheathed, and people could feel the sharp stabbing pain. However, this illusion was fleeting, because Jiang Wen's next second Without any scruples, he came to the front of the giant monster, and put his palm on the pale and slimy body.
"Everyone, don't panic, this is just a stone statue of a god carved for an unknown age. It has been covered with stalactites for a long time, and it has changed into such a terrifying appearance."
Jiang Wen knocked on the corner of the stone statue, and it made a sound as clear as gold and stone hitting, which also proved that this statue had been hidden in a cave for many years, so that it was covered by the stone wall with a stalactite appearance.
"Bronze boats coming out of the water is a great omen, and now only this place can ensure safety."
Ying Laodao also came to the front of the crowd, and comforted everyone with words, "Just as Daoist Jiang said, don't panic, this is just a statue of Bingyi God from the Qin Dynasty, which has been enshrined in front of the Qin Dynasty's slipway for more than a thousand years. The Tongshan slang people under their feet have never done any harm."
In order to prove his point, Ying Laodao also pointed to the eyes of the monster-like statue and said, "In the pre-Qin period, it was said that He Bo was ferocious and had a violent temperament. It was said that Yi once shot his left eye with an arrow, and his power was unpredictable. Like a single eye, it is the proof."
Bingyi, formerly known as "Feng Yi", is the legendary water god of the Yellow River. According to Ge Hong's "Baopuzi Shigui Pian", he drowned while crossing the river, so he was appointed by the Emperor of Heaven to manage the river. "Han Feizi Nei Chu Shuo [-]" said that a man in the state of Qi wanted to invite the king of Qi to see He Bo, so he built an altar on the water, and soon a big fish emerged from the water, which was He Bo.It can be seen that the shape of Hebo is such a human-faced fish body, so Duan Chengshi directly said that Hebo is a human-faced fish-body in "Youyang Zazu", and travels on two dragons.
But the question is, in such a deep and difficult underground cave, why would someone spend so much time and energy to carve such a huge statue of Frozen End?
"Master Jiang, this matter is quite twists and turns, let me explain it slowly. Do you know the "Guangdong Tongzhi" compiled by Huang Zuo, a wise man?"
Ying Laodao probably saw Jiang Wen's doubts, and slowly explained the reason.
"The book records a strange incident. In the November of Wuwu in Jiajing, there was a big banyan tree five feet behind the Guangzhou City God's Temple. It had been decayed for a long time. Its roots were more than ten feet below the soil, and there were holes, which were dug by Taoists. Dongran said: There must be something hidden in it."
"When you send it out, you get dozens of scull boards, all of which are opposite to each other. There are innumerable numbers, and they are close to the statues of gods. They are sealed. It is also the case that the scull boards have been completed since the Tang and Song Dynasties."
Ying Laodao explained it in great detail, almost knowing the content of this passage by heart, and then added, "The first record of the ancient book's 'Jun wood planks' are arranged in pairs, and the number is 'innumerable', so Huang Zuo deduced that this It’s because there was nothing wrong with the “scull board”, and people at the time thought it was a miracle and didn’t continue to dig, but they made a mistake in the most important place...”
Ying Laodao paused for a moment, and finally said the answer he had kept in his heart for a long time.
"This place is not a relic of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Since the Tang Dynasty, sea sand has accumulated and the sea has changed. The South China Sea has already retreated to the position of Fuxu Ancient Ferry. It is Zhangqiugang Village, where the old man has lived in seclusion for a long time. This place should be the ruins of the slipway between the Qin and Han Dynasties!"
Ying Laodao's words spread endlessly, and the people in the martial arts world began to whisper, no matter what, it was hard to believe that what they saw before them turned out to be a pre-Qin ancient site thousands of years ago!
But of course Jiang Wen knew about this, and he also knew that later generations would excavate a shipway relic of an unprecedented scale in the Qin Dynasty under the City God’s Temple in Guangzhou, which was eventually considered a huge shipyard. A rectangle of about 30 meters and a width of about 11 meters from north to south, there are three shipbuilding berths arranged in parallel in this area, and even a wood processing site.
This archaeological discovery shocked the whole country. The excavated "Chuanchang site" is located 5 meters below the surface. The shipyard is covered with accumulations since the early Western Han Dynasty, and the bottom is gray-black sedimentary clay.Sampling analysis shows that it contains a large number of marine organisms, and it is preliminarily inferred that it belongs to marine strata, indicating that this place used to be a shallow sea, so when the shipyard was built here in the Qin Dynasty, it had become a sedimentary mudflat.
The three slipways that have been discovered are horizontally arranged in parallel, and a possible slope-type launching slide has been found in the west.Regarding the construction method of the shipbuilding slipway, based on the ambiguity of the shipbuilding technology in the pre-Qin period, the excavators speculated that the slipway was combined with a slideway, which was shaped like a modern railway track and consisted of sleepers, sliding boards and wooden piers.
In the known excavation work, copper coins from the Qin to Han dynasties were found in the ruins of the slipway, and the latest one was the four baht and a half two copper coins of Emperor Wenwen of the Han Dynasty. The conclusion is that the shipyard was finally abandoned and filled in the Wenjing period of the early Han Dynasty. The possibility that the shipyard was first built in the early Han Dynasty cannot be ruled out.
But Jiang Wen remembers very clearly that the age of the shipbuilding workshop is still a vague matter, and no absolute dating data was found in the trial excavation, only relying on the radiocarbon dating of No. 1 slipway, the date is judged to be 240 BC ±90 years.
Furthermore, based on the overlapping relationship of the strata and the age characteristics of the unearthed artifacts, combined with relevant documents and historical materials, the excavators analyzed the date when the shipyard was first built, the time when it was abandoned and filled, and the relationship between the construction of the shipyard and the major historical events that occurred in Guangzhou at that time. Correlation, made a preliminary inference.
But the biggest doubt about this relic appears here.
It should be known that if it is assumed that the shipyard was first built in the early Han Dynasty, this period was the time when Zhao Tuo ruled South of the Five Ridges.However, during Zhao Tuo's reign, there were no records of water activities.According to archaeological findings, some people also built a large palace near the shipyard in the early Han Dynasty, and the scale was large and the construction was very particular. The shipyard site was also filled in because it was within the scope of the building site.
Therefore, the function of this slipway is somewhat ambiguous, and it can also be considered that the passageway that has been excavated is a subsidiary part of the large palace built by Zhao Tuo after he proclaimed himself emperor.
To put it another way, assuming that Zhao Tuo built such a large-scale shipbuilding factory out of military or water transportation and trade needs, it is unreasonable and impossible to abandon and fill it up before Wenjing.However, there were no fierce and brutal water wars in South Vietnam at that time, and it was not possible to establish such an "arsenal" near the palace.
Therefore, judging from this perspective, some people think that this slipway was originally built as a shipbuilding base for the Qin army who arrived in Panyu, mainly for the unification war that lasted for many years, and it is a very natural thing to rush to manufacture urgently needed ships.Therefore, this shipbuilding factory was first built during the unification of Lingnan in the Qin Dynasty; it was gradually abandoned and refilled in the Wenjing period of the early Western Han Dynasty, that is, after Zhao Tuo of Nanyue separatist and proclaimed himself emperor, it was no longer needed.
However, the above conclusions about the ruins being built in the Qin Dynasty are mostly based on conjectures, and no more definite clues have been found, nor can it prove the necessity of building a slipway on a land that can be used to build palaces. It laid the groundwork for the later speculative debate.It seems that one day, for some reason, the discoverers who were so convincing began to spare no effort to overthrow the previous research conclusions, and the more senior and professional archaeological experts, they will come up with an astonishingly unified refutation point of view after in-depth research!
According to later accounts, at the appraisal meeting of the site held at the excavation site in March 1976, an old professor from the South China Institute of Technology who was in charge of the excavation spoke on behalf of the site, and strongly stated that this is the architectural site of the Nanyue Kingdom, and it should be the Nanyue Wangtai or Li Palace, and asked geographers to confirm whether this is Panyu Mountain or the beach, so as to avoid deep damage to this five-meter underground relic and try to ensure the integrity of the relic.
The wind of public opinion changed quickly, and the uproarious archeology of the slipway gradually turned into a dispute between the slipway and the palace, and the archaeological work was forced to stop.
In 1980, a senior professor of the Department of Geography of South China Normal University further raised strong doubts in an article on the historical geography of Guangzhou.
He pointed out that the terrain around the "shipyard" is relatively high, "the question of how to change from the 'shipyard' to the corner of the 'Palace of the King of Yue' has not been answered."Furthermore, "it is suspected that it is not the ruins of the shipbuilding workshop, but more likely to be the architectural ruins related to the ancient city of Panyu or the city of Guangzhou".
In 1997, a researcher at the Guangdong Provincial Museum also published an article "Guangzhou "Shipbuilding Workshop" Is Actually an Architectural Relic" after many years of research, arguing that the "shipway theory" does not conform to historical facts and should be a dry-walled building. Meaning, it will only destroy the original precious relics.
However, the theory of the slipway still exists, and the application for excavation has also drifted into the hands of the cultural relics department like snowflakes. From April to May 2000, a researcher and architectural archaeologist at the Institute of Archeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences serially published the article "Distinguishing the Palace of the Nanyue King--Discussion with the "Shuttle Theory"" in the "China Cultural Relics News", listing 4 reasons in detail, to The "Slipway Theory" refuted it, arguing that this site could not be a slipway, but the wooden building foundation of the palace ruins.
In response to the objector's refutation article, Professor Yang issued another reply article in August, arguing that the site of the Nanyue Palace Office should be named the site of the Palace Garden, and that the site of the ship berth is actually a large palace relic with both a view and a living function. Opinion intends to destroy cultural relics, "should bear all responsibilities thoroughly!"
A series of treacherous clues formed in Jiang Wen's mind, and his heartbeat that was pounding because he was close to the truth finally slowed down. He only felt that what Ying Laodao said was not the truth that Kuang Gu Shuo Jin had never discovered, It's just a fact that many people tried their best to hide, only one child who didn't know the heights of the world and dared to say that the emperor didn't wear clothes was missing.
"Senior Ying, you said this is a pre-Qin historical site...do you have any other evidence?"
Jiang Wen didn't know whether to refute or appreciate his truth-seeking, so he had to suppress the churning thoughts in his mind and wait for the other party to give an answer.
Ying Laodao, with a long face, was unwavering, and told Jiang Wen about a little-known history.
"Master Jiang, in the past Qin Shihuang dispatched 50 soldiers from the state captain Tu Sui to form five armies, one army to fortify the mountains of Tancheng, one army to guard the fortress of Jiuyi, one army to be in the capital of Panyu, one army to kill the territory of Nanye, one army The rest of the army is dry water. The other four armies are all warriors on foot, but the capital of Panyu is the water capital of Yue people. Its people have broken hair and tattoos, and the boats and boats are as dense as rain. It is unpredictable to gather and disperse suddenly. The people of Qin are not good at it. I haven’t made any achievements in shipbuilding for three years, and I’m trapped in the water city of Panyu, unable to move an inch.”
"Tu Sui was good at fighting. For three years, he didn't disarm his armor and rode his crossbows. He made it impossible for the supervisor to transfer his salary. He also dug a canal with his soldiers to open the grain road. He used a strange plan to make a water boat and rushed out of the city. He fought with the Yue people, and then killed the West. Mr. Ou translated it to the Song Dynasty. And the Yue people all entered the Congbo, where they lived with the beasts, and they would never be Qin captives."
Ying Laodao pointed to the desolate and dilapidated karst caves and lakes in front of him, as well as the desolate scene full of debris left to be dug, and said with admiration, "Tu Sui's trick is to build a boat underground here, waiting for an opportunity to attack and kill Yueren's water boats. Therefore, as early as before the Temple of the City God was established, as long as there was no trace of Guangzhou Mansion, as early as when this was still called Tu Sui City, there was already this ancient Qin shipway!"
This period of history was unheard of, but Tu Sui's man, Jiang Wen, had heard of it. When he was a lieutenant, Zhao Tuo, the later king of Nanyue, was only a lieutenant general. Unfortunately, because he was negligent in guarding against the Yue people's attack, he died in the end.This earth-shattering battle is recorded in "Huainanzi". The Yue people "attacked the Qin people at night, smashed them, killed Wei Tusui, and hundreds of thousands of corpses bleed."
However, this ancient slipway buried in the underground cave seems to still be telling his own story. The gigantic Frozen Giant Statue in front of him also carries the Qin people who grew up in the Yellow River Basin, entrusting the power of the Yellow River Water God to defeat the enemy. Unlimited expectations have been rooted in this land forever.
"Senior Ying, I still don't quite understand what you mean. Even if a huge boat can be built here that can crush the Yueren canoe, how can we transport the boat out of the ground?"
Jiang Wen expressed his doubts, but suddenly found that there seemed to be fewer people in the martial arts circle in front of him, as if they had evaporated silently from the underground with nowhere to escape. Even Yuan Ziyi, Yan Yongchun, and Luo Shuang'er didn't know when. disappeared.
Jiang Wen opened his mouth to ask, but Old Daoist Ying's expression was particularly secretive, with an indescribable look on his wrinkled face.
"Master Jiang, Shang Kexi has been coveting the Luo family's secret way for many years, and the miraculousness in it can't be explained clearly in a few words, and naturally it can't be seen through at a glance."
After finishing speaking, he stretched out his finger to the dark stone wall above his head, "In another three moments, just look there..."
As the voice slowly dissipated, everyone was surprised to find that the originally dark dome of the cave emitted a gleam of crystal light, as if the stone wall was being melted by the warm sun, turning into pieces of translucent jade, and countless drops of rain dripped from the top , also floated on people's faces one after another.
The light became clearer and clearer, and the dome of the cave became more unpredictable. Everyone was surprised to find that the top of their heads had not turned into any jade, but a large water curtain that stretched to the sky. , jagged.
"Isn't this place under the City God's Temple? Why do you see Dihe hanging upside down?!"
Someone exclaimed, fearing that at some point, tons of seawater would break through the fragile zenith and pour into this karst cave, turning it into an inescapable Zeguo.
But Ying Laodao reminded at the right time, "There is a secret passage ahead, leave it quickly, if you are late, you will be completely trapped underground, and you will never recover!"
Needless to say at this time, Jiang Wen saw the martial arts people hastily followed the instructions, filed in from the belly of the huge Bingyi stone statue, pushed away the bronze figures all over the ground and broke into a cave where they disappeared.
"Senior Ying, why don't you go?"
Jiang Wen looked at Old Daoist Ying and found something wrong in his expression.
After watching the martial arts people leave, Ying Laodao said to Jiang Wen mysteriously: "No hurry, this is not the place we are going to go. Since Master Jiang, you want to go with the old man, follow me to another place." let's go..."
"Aren't you going with them?" Jiang Wen asked deliberately.
But Old Taoist Ying replied inexplicably: "If you really want to join hands, why bother?"
The Qin Dynasty berth is now illuminated by the swaying light in the water, but there is a particularly conspicuous shadow slowly coming from the light, projected in the vague and uncertain cave, like a dark cloud that makes people feel particularly uneasy. A symbol of ominous arrival.
At this time, there were only the two of them left in the slipway cave, and the sound of the lake, sea and river above their heads became clearer, and it seemed that it would turn into a catastrophe at any moment.Old Taoist Ying dragged Jiang Wen to the location where the Bingyi Stone Statue was hidden, and walked to where they were supposed to go, but Jiang Wen couldn't help but look back at the sky for the last time.
It was an indescribably huge copper boat, floating wantonly in the gloomy and cold water. The interlaced appearance of rust and patterns, and the shape of aquatic plants and calcium carbonate had made it lose its originality over the long years. It looks like water slowly flowing in the upside-down ground river, like a pale old man who is silent.
But at the moment before his sight disappeared, Jiang Wen discovered from a certain angle that he should not have observed that the bronze boat did not seem to be walking alone, but attached to a darker, more mottled, and more indescribable On the shadow, it is about to be slowly dragged into the truly dark world of darkness...
