Crossing the Soul-Cleaning Bridge and walking on the mountain road, clouds and mist surround you.

Dai Daojin walked up the stairs with his hands behind his back, wearing a gray robe. Feng Yin followed beside him, and the mountain breeze blew the hem of his clothes.

Neither of them spoke, and they kept walking up. The number of trees at their feet decreased, and the green became thinner.

After a long while, I arrived at the top of the mountain, where there was white snow all over the place and a cold wind howling. I took a quick look and saw a wide field of vision, which made me feel relaxed.

Feng Yin exhaled a white breath and sighed: "No wonder people like to stand on high places and look down. It feels really good up there."

Dai Daojin smiled and pointed at the white snow at his feet, "Standing at this high place, I stepped on countless corpses. Although the scenery was beautiful, it was extremely cold at high places. Between gains and losses, how could it be so simple?

It’s clear.”

"Woo..." Leng Feng whimpered, like weeping and complaining, adding a touch of desolation and chill.

Feng Yin lifted his steps and walked towards the pavilion in the distance.

As we walked closer, we saw a stone mountain pavilion, covered with snow, and withered willow branches beside the pavilion swaying in the wind, which was very desolate. There was a bluestone tomb in the pavilion, and the stone tablet in front of the tomb was engraved with the word "Lengxiang", which was written in thin gold, Qing Dynasty.

Open and deserted.

As we got closer, under the stone tablet in front of the tomb, the stone carvings came alive, and there was a small order, which Feng Yin read out softly.

"On that day, the boy wore a thin spring shirt, the bright moon shone on the silver hairpin, and when the swallows parted, he hated the wind and the clouds. His ambition was not fulfilled, his forehead was stained, and his dream was gone. I will die in this life, and I will grow old in the sea, and my heart will be in Tianshan."

The whistling wind in the mountains seemed to echo the little order he recited.

This "Lengxiang Pavilion" was built after Xi Kunlun died and his ashes were divided into two halves. One half was left overseas to accompany his wife, while the other half was brought back to China by Liang Siqin and buried with Liu Yingying.

At some point, Dai Daojin also came close, looking at the cold loess pile, his eyes became colder and colder, and he said calmly: "The love and hate, the joys and sorrows in the world, or the common people in the country, are all illusions, only life and death."

is true."

"No matter whether you were number one or number two in the world during your lifetime, if you can't escape the cycle of reincarnation, you will ultimately be unable to leap out of a handful of loess. So why are you struggling so hard?"

The wind is silent, only the sound of the wind matches it.

Dai Daojin turned his head, looked at the vast clouds, and said softly: "Feng Yin, go down the mountain, return to Wan Guizang, let the world turn upside down, rebuild the mountains and rivers, and help me find the way forward."

The stars were shining brightly in Feng Yin's eyes, and there was no longer the emotion in his eyes just now.

"And you?"

"Now that the 'Capital of the Emperor' has been given to me by Wan Guizang, I am waiting in the Kunlun Mountains of the 'Ancestor of the Dragon Veins'..."

Feng Yin turned around and walked away. The wind and clouds in the mountains were stirring, and a storm was about to come.

…

In October, in the southwest, the earth dragon turned over, and countless people were killed and injured.

In the latter part of the same month, in the bitter cold land of Liaodong in the northeast, the Jurchen people knelt down to prepare for the coming cold winter.

The tribes in the north, including the northwest, Oara, and Tatar tribes, were also ready to move, and had conflicts with the Ming court's border troops from time to time.

These things have intensified in recent years, and the court and even the people have become somewhat accustomed to it, because at this time, the Ming Empire still has some foundations, and dealing with these situations will not immediately drag this old empire into the abyss.

It wasn't until the spring of the next year that the smell of war gradually filled the air.

The Tatars broke through the pass and entered the Hetao. Their troops marched straight into Beijing, burning, killing and looting on the way...

On the southeast coast, Japanese ronin and local pirates from the Ming Dynasty collaborated with coastal residents for smuggling, and successively raided areas such as Shandong, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong. Some Southeast Asian dignitaries even fled to Nanjing as the capital in panic.

In the eyes of the imperial court, the incident of the Japanese pirates in the southeast was nothing more than a clown, but the Tatars broke through the pass and entered the Loop, approaching the city of Beijing. However, it shocked the gentlemen in the city, and the emperor was not immune. In anger, he ordered the army to pursue them.

, but the army was still defeated, and after the Tatar tribes looted and killed them, they turned westward.

But even if the Tatars went west, the number of garrison troops in Beijing would more than double.

After being furious, the emperor fell ill.

Royal Palace, West Nei.

There are brightly lit palaces with glazed jade tiles and magnificent palaces everywhere, but the palace in the west is simple and has an ancient feel. Although it is not gorgeous, the guards around it are three steps and one guard, which is extremely tight.

Inside the temple, what attracts the most attention is the Taoist Sanqing statue in the center. There is a large incense burner in front of the statue, and smoke is still curling up. This is obviously a Taoist temple, but it appears in the temple, which is really weird.

This is because of the emperor. The emperor of this dynasty believed in Taoism, relied on alchemists, and prayed day and night.

At this moment, in the main hall, on the dragon bed, a man dressed in Emperor Ming's clothes was lying on the bed with a thin face and dull eyes.

The man next to him was wearing a Taoist robe, with white hair and a childish face, and a cool and unrestrained expression, looking like an immortal.

The emperor took a breath and asked: "Xianren Liu, can my illness be cured?" It turned out that the emperor was originally well, but after being furious, for some reason, he couldn't exert any strength, was extremely sore, and had no energy.

After seeing it, the imperial doctor said that the five qi in the body of the Taoist Saint were in chaos and needed to be adjusted slowly, and the effect would be slow.

The emperor was impatient. After a while, he summoned the Taoist master Liu Xian for diagnosis and treatment. Within half an hour, he was much better, but it was back to the same condition the next day. When Master Liu came again for diagnosis and treatment, it took longer and longer.

Master Liu Xian has been in the palace for a long time. It is said that he won the emperor's trust more than ten years ago because of his "immortal skills".

Hearing the emperor's inquiry, Master Liu narrowed his eyes, checked his pulse, and his mind moved slightly. A wisp of Zhou Liu Tianjin slowly flowed into the emperor's body, traveling along the meridians and touching the five internal organs from time to time.

Among the five internal organs, the liver belongs to wood, the lungs belong to metal, the kidneys belong to water, the heart belongs to fire, the spleen belongs to earth, and among the eight trigrams, sky and lake belong to metal, earth and mountains belong to earth, thunder and wind belong to wood, plus water and fire.

Hexagrams constitute the five elements of the human body, and the flow of Qi of the five elements provides a complete cycle for human life.

Master Liu Xian was originally an elder from Tianbu. He disappeared for nearly twenty years. Elder Tianbu thought he was dead and did not want to be sent to lurk in the palace.

In the past twenty years, he had seemed to be separated from the Ministry of Heaven. He thought he was going to die in the palace like this, but he didn't want to finally receive the news not long ago that he could take action, so he used the convenience of being in constant contact with the emperor to send a message to the emperor from time to time.

A wisp of Zhou Liutian's energy penetrated into the emperor's body.

Tianjin belongs to metal, and it melts into the human body and becomes part of the five elements of the human body. There is nothing wrong with it initially, but over time, there will inevitably be problems with the lungs. If there is too much metal, the cycle of the five elements will be broken, and the five qi will be chaotic.

, the Qi cannot flow completely, the essence Qi is blocked, and the whole body will naturally be sore and weak.

Therefore, the diagnosis made by the imperial physician was not inappropriate, and the diagnosis and treatment methods prescribed could be regarded as prescribing the right medicine. If the emperor could endure it and take care of himself slowly, he would be able to recover one day.

But now there is no such hope.

Don't think that what Jianghu people do is straightforward, sharp, and rude. That's what Jianghu people at the bottom play. Most people can't do such technical work.

Master Liu Xian slowly retracted his right hand, smoothed his long white beard, and said softly: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. I have already groomed your Majesty's body, and you will gradually get better."

When the emperor heard this, he looked happy.

After Master Liu saluted, he slowly exited the hall. He turned around and looked at the statue of the Sanqing God in the middle. His eyes suddenly revealed a hint of strangeness. Thinking about the situation he had just explored, the emperor's internal organs and qi had become a mess, worse than that of a dying old man.

If it is unbearable, it will be impossible to survive three days.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord"

Old Master Liu Xian bowed lightly to the statue, turned around and left.

In the main hall, the statue of Sanqing is still looking forward majestically. In this most noble place in the world, it seems to be watching all the things in the world.
