Chapter 361

Murong Danyan once followed Li Qiufeng to break into the soul-moving formation set up by Yagyu Sogan's warlocks underground in the imperial mausoleum. Before falling into the soul-moving formation, he saw a surging underground river with his own eyes. It just needs to be cracked.

After entering the soul-moving formation, the underground river disappeared inexplicably. At that time, Li Qiufeng seemed to have said that the mechanisms under the imperial mausoleum were driven by the power of the underground river, but Murong Danyan didn't take it to heart.

Up. At this moment, I heard Situ Qiao mention the underground river again, and he seemed to have remembered the past, but he could only vaguely remember it.

But I heard Situ Qiao proudly say: "When I first entered this cave, I was surprised at how the huge rock rose and fell. Please note that manpower is limited. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you can push an object weighing one to two hundred kilograms.

It is rare. That huge stone is controlled by a mechanism. Without the blessing of external force, no matter how clever the mechanism is, it will have no effect. When I was practicing the art of mechanism, I knew that any mechanism that relies on force to win, no matter how it is set up.

Exquisitely, the power of blessing and the wooden wheel are both indispensable. And in the tomb, most of the blessing power that can be relied upon is the power of water flow."

When Situ Qiao said this, he glanced around the crowd triumphantly and said, "I think you have all heard of Cao Cao and Cao Mengde's name, right?"

Everyone was confused by what he said, and just when they couldn't figure it out, they suddenly heard him mention the word Cao Cao again, and they were even more confused. They all looked at each other, not knowing what this man wanted to say. Lin Yilang and others

They had long been impatient with his ramblings, and all of them had impatient looks on their faces. However, although there were torches in the secret passage, it was still extremely dark, so although all of these people had unhesitant expressions, except for those standing there,

Others around you can't tell.

Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, Situ Qiao felt even more proud and said with a smile: "Cao Mengde, a traitor from generation to generation, has always been willing for me to betray the world, and will never allow the world to betray me. Although he killed Lu Boshe's family

There is no record in the history books, it is just word of mouth. However, he later borrowed the head of the grain officer to stabilize the morale of the army, massacred Xuzhou to avenge his father, killed Queen Fu, and used Emperor Xian as a puppet. Even his great adviser Xun Yu was killed.

He was forced to die and so on. Judging from all the things that happened, although this man was a man of great talent and strategy, he probably did a lot of bad things during his lifetime. But the worst thing Cao Mengde ever did was to rob a tomb and fill it with graves.

For military purposes..."

As soon as he said this, everyone couldn't help but be shocked. Since Zhu Xi of the Southern Song Dynasty, everyone has called Cao Cao a traitor, confirming his reputation as a rebellious minister. Taizu of the Ming Dynasty raised troops to drive away Meng Yuan, and the banner was to restore

The country of the Song Dynasty reappeared the clothes and clothes of the Han people. Therefore, after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, people all followed the customs of the Song Dynasty, and their discussions about Cao Cao were naturally the same as those of the Song Dynasty. In the streets and restaurants, there were often storytellers telling about the old events of the Three Kingdoms, including the white-faced traitor Cao Mengde.

Everyone knows his name. However, most people only know that this person held the emperor hostage to order the princes. He said that he would rather let me betray the world than let the world betray me. He killed the queen and beheaded Kong Rong.

Sleepwalking and killing courtiers with the intention of keeping the police in check, all kinds of evil deeds are outrageous. But this is the first time I heard about Cao Cao's robbery of the tomb.

Although the leader of the Beggar Clan, Deng Yao, was a master of martial arts, he still had to beg on the streets every day just because he was a member of the Beggar Clan. One of his favorite hobbies in his life was to squat in front of wine houses and teahouses and listen to stories. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, storytellers were originally

I like "The Legend of Heroes" and other commentaries that tell the stories of the founding generals of the Ming Dynasty. It's just that in the Lianxing case of Ming Taizu, almost all the founding heroes were killed. The heroes these storytellers talked about yesterday may have become the heroes today.

The ghost frightened everyone into danger, and "Biography of Heroes" has disappeared since then. Afterwards, erotic stories became popular in the market, but it didn't last long. The court arrested them under the name of "indecent to morals and leading people to obscenity".

Many storytellers were given dozens of slaps on their buttocks after being sent to the yamen, and their erotic comments immediately disappeared in the streets. The storytellers gathered together to discuss, and they did not dare to talk about the affairs of the day, and they were not allowed to say erotic words, so they had to

Let’s take the previous dynasties as an example. The Tang and Song dynasties are not far from the Ming Dynasty. If you mention it in a book, you will be accused by the government of “using the past to satirize the present”. You will inevitably get a slap in the face and push it forward.

The story of the Three Kingdoms is the most exciting, so a group of storytellers made an appointment to tell the story of the heroes of the Three Kingdoms in restaurants and teahouses all over the capital. Since then, the world has not only been bustling with streets and markets, but also deserted villages and shops, with wells and people everywhere.

There are stories of the Three Kingdoms circulating everywhere. Deng Yao traveled to various provinces, and wherever he went, he must listen to books for fun. But he listened to the Three Kingdoms, but he was different from others. The one he admired the most was Cao Cao, Cao Mengde, who was regarded as a traitor by the world.

After hearing Situ Qiao criticize Cao Cao for robbing someone's tomb, he couldn't help but said to one side: "That's nonsense! How could Cao Cao, a great hero, do such a despicable thing?!"

Situ Qiao heard him criticize him face to face, but he was not angry. He still said proudly: "This man, Cao Mengde robbed the tomb, which is recorded in the book. In the fifth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought in Guandu.

Before the war began, Chen Lin, a counselor under Yuan Shao's tent, wrote an "Essay on Yuzhou for Yuan Shao", which included the following sentences: "Cao Cao also appointed a general named Zhonglang of Faqiu to touch the captain of Jin, and passed through Juntu.

No body left exposed'."

When he recited these sentences, he shook his head, but his words were accurate and well-spoken, with some literary talent. When he saw Deng Yao, Lin Yilang and other rough men under the torch, they looked at a loss, knowing that they did not understand.

, then explained: "The meaning of these sentences is that Cao Cao has set up military positions in the army named 'Faqiu Zhonglang General' and 'Mojin Xiaowei', who are specifically responsible for robbing tombs. So Cao Cao

When the army passed by, all the tombs were damaged, and the bones of the deceased were thrown into the fields. The situation was extremely miserable."

Deng Yao and others have been hanging out in the world. Although they know some words and have read a few books, they are nothing more than Hundred Family Surnames and Thousand Character Essays. How can they read articles by great writers like Chen Lin? So I heard

Situ Qiao dropped his book bag, but what he heard was filled with mist. Although he felt dissatisfied, he could not refute.

Li Qiufeng had studied a lot, and because of his sect's connection, he was quite familiar with the past events of the Three Kingdoms, so he said to one side: "Chen Lin's article cannot be fully believed. At that time, he was under Yuan Shao's tent, and had a close relationship with Cao Cao.

When fighting for the world, both sides are powerful enemies. When facing an enemy, it is not unusual to write an article to curse the enemy. Therefore, it is reasonable to include some scandals about Cao Cao in the article. Cao Cao said this

He did have great talents and great strategies. Although he massacred Xuzhou, he only allowed Cao Jun to rob and rob tombs. Except for this article by Chen Lin, it has not been found in the history books."

When he said this, he paused briefly and then said to Situ Qiao: "Mr. Situ, you just said that there must be an underground river in the mountain, and this river is the source of all the secret techniques in the cave. No.

Do you know why Cao Cao was mentioned from this river?"

As soon as he said this, Situ Qiao suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "My words are indeed a bit confusing, and I have taken the topic too far. When Cao Cao was alive, he did a lot of robbing and excavation of tombs, and

At that time, although Guan Yu was defeated, Liu Bei still occupied Yizhou, and his military strength was growing day by day. Sun Quan, the third generation of Jiangdong, was in charge, and his strength should not be underestimated. Who among Wei, Shu, and Wu could conquer the world was still unknown when Cao Cao was critically ill.

What's more, since Chen Liu raised his army, Cao Cao has fought on the battlefield and killed many people in his life. In the court, he bullied the ministers and killed countless ministers who were loyal to the Han Dynasty. Therefore, he was afraid that after his death,

The tomb was robbed, and the body was trampled on. Before his death, he spent a lot of money to invite the most powerful magicians and skilled craftsmen in the world to build him a tomb. The tomb was filled with extremely powerful killing mechanisms. In order to cover up others' eyes, he also

He left his last words to Cao Pi, who succeeded him as King of Wei. On the day of the funeral, there were funeral processions from all four gates of Ye City. Seventy-two tombs were set up outside Ye City. The main sacrificial hall was built in the west of Ximen Bao Temple.

On a high slope. Cao Pi abided by Cao Cao's last words and handled things very carefully. Therefore, everyone in the world knew that Cao Mengde's Gaoling was located in the west of the Ximen Leopard Temple, but few people knew that it was just the main hall where Cao Cao was worshiped.

Three days before the funeral, Cao Cao's body was brought to Cao Cao's mausoleum, which had been secretly built, by his confidant general Xu Chu and dozens of dead men. After his coffin was properly placed, all the dead men

He secluded himself in Cao Cao's mausoleum and was buried for Cao Cao. Only general Xu Chu left Cao Cao's mausoleum alive."

Everyone was shocked when they heard him narrate this old incident. Murong Danyan even listened to his words as a story and would not interrupt him. Even Deng Yao and others were quite unconvinced with Situ Qiao.

Because people like to listen to books, they listened with gusto at this time. Therefore, in the secret passage, only the whistling of the wind could be heard, and no one questioned Situ Qiao's words.

Just listen to Situ Qiao say: "After Cao Cao's mausoleum was built, Cao Cao ordered those magicians and skilled craftsmen to be executed secretly. A few years after Cao Cao was buried, Cao Pi suddenly ordered the destruction of all the above-ground and attic halls in Gaoling. At that time, his excuse was that he was "from the late Emperor Jian"

"The ambition of virtue', the palace in Gaoling was completely demolished. To this day, there is no more brick or tile on the west slope of Ximen Leopard Temple..."

When he said this, Li Qiufeng's heart trembled, and he thought to himself: "This man has been to the west of the Ximen Leopard Temple. He is proficient in the secrets of government agencies. What is he doing in Cao Cao's mausoleum? Doesn't he want to rob Cao Cao's tomb?"

Situ Qiao shook his head and said: "Actually, Cao Pi's pretentiousness was all based on Cao Cao's last words before his death. First, he built the main priest's hall on the high slope to the west of the Ximen Leopard Temple. People naturally thought that Cao Cao's mausoleum was on that high slope.

Sakon. After a few years, the matter will spread all over the world, and no one will doubt that Cao Cao's body was buried elsewhere. At this time, all the palaces were demolished, which was even more obvious, making the enemies even more believe that Cao Cao's mausoleum was there.

Here."

When Situ Qiao said this, he smiled and said: "With Cao Mengde's cunning, how can he do such a thing that makes his enemies celebrate with their foreheads and hands? His pretentiousness is to cover up the real burial place of his body. Cao Cao's real mausoleum.

It was built at the bottom of the Zhang River. The master who designed the mausoleum wanted to use the power of the rushing water of the Zhang River to drive the killing mechanism in the tomb. There is a tomb passage outside Cao Cao's mausoleum, which is built on the rock wall at the bottom of the river.

It is the only way to enter Cao Cao's tomb. There are thirty-six shields made of fine iron in the tomb passage. Once the mechanism is activated, sharp blades will protrude from the edges of these shields and rotate like the wind at the same time. Thirty-six shields

Seal all the tomb passages, and anyone who steps into the tomb passage will be chopped into pieces by the sharp blades on these shields."
