Hu Xiaoxian also thought about this and said: "The deceased is the most important. Besides, we have obtained so many spiritual stones, so we should kowtow to Senior Situ."
After speaking, she knelt down on her knees and kowtowed her head one after another towards Situ Zhaixing's spiritual throne. After kowtowing three times, before she could stand up, she heard a creaking sound.
Not good! There is an agency!
Qin Haodong held the little guy with one hand and Hu Xiaoxian's waist with the other, and quickly rushed to the door of the stone room.
When I looked back, there was no danger in the room. At this time, the incense table under the memorial tablet moved to the right, revealing a hole. The hole was still bright, and a step led directly to the bottom.
"It turns out there is something else going on here!"
Qin Haodong let go of Hu Xiaoxian, and the two of them walked down the steps one after another. Below was a stone room of about 20 square meters. There was a futon in the middle of the stone room, and a person was sitting cross-legged. It was Situ Zhaixing, but he was
There was no sign of life, and he had obviously been lying dead for a long time.
Just when their attention was attracted to Situ Zhaixing's body, they heard a click and the entrance had been completely sealed.
"What's going on?"
Qin Haodong was startled. He turned back and slapped the entrance. After a muffled bang, the entrance did not move at all. Qin Haodong stretched out his hand and flicked it, making a tinkling metal echo. It turned out that the entrance had been made of a piece of fine steel.
sealed with iron plates.
"Oops, we're trapped!" Qin Haodong said.
"Let me try it!"
Hu Xiaoxian said as he drew out his purple electric sword, and a ray of purple light struck the iron plate at the entrance. After a crisp sound, only a small white dot was left on the iron plate, but there was no damage.
At this time, I heard someone say: "No need to try, I made this exit with ten thousand years of cold iron, you can't break it at all."
Qin Haodong and Hu Xiaoxian turned around and saw a phantom reappearing in the basement. It was Situ Zhaixing. However, his physical body had already transformed next to him. This should be the spiritual thought left behind during his lifetime.
"Senior Situ, what do you mean by trapping us here?" Qin Haodong asked.
"You are destined to be able to find the secret room I left behind. Now that you are here, don't be anxious. Sit down and listen slowly. I will tell you a story."
After Situ Zhaixing finished speaking, he pointed to the two futons in the corner and asked them to sit down.
Qin Haodong thought for a while, and there was no point in worrying now anyway. The stone room was so strong that it was impossible to force his way out. He could only listen to Situ Zhaixing's explanation before talking.
He pulled Hu Xiaoxian and sat down on the futon. Although Situ Zhaixing was just a wisp of spiritual thought, he also made a sitting posture. The little guy found it very interesting and looked at the illusory Situ Zhaixing with interest.
"Senior Situ, just tell me if you have anything." Qin Haodong said.
"This story is a bit long. It starts with my father, Situ Qing."
Situ Zhaixing spoke slowly.
"My father is the 42nd generation head of the Yiyuan Sect. He once fell into the trap of the evil monk Mangshan Ghost King, and fled to Liaodong after being seriously injured.
Although he escaped the pursuit of the Ghost King of Mang Mountain, my father was seriously injured and was already dying. Fortunately, his life was saved and he met a young hunter in the forest.
The little hunter saved my father's life with deer blood. After he recovered from his injury, in order to repay his kindness, my father told the little hunter that if he asked for any wish, he would be satisfied. Who knew that the little hunter was very ambitious and actually asked for it?
Want to be emperor.
As the head of the Yiyuan Sect, my father has always kept his word. Although the little Orion's request was a bit excessive, he finally agreed. In order to make the little Orion realize his wish, my father took out 12 high-grade spiritual stones and used them outside the Great Wall.
A rising dragon array has been set up in the mountains and rivers to nourish the dragon veins for the little hunters."
"Little Orion, Dragon Vein Beyond the Great Wall?" Qin Haodong was shocked when he heard this and asked: "Senior Situ, is the little Orion you are talking about called Nurhaci?"
"Yes, that's the name." Situ Zhaixing continued, "After getting help from my father, the little Orion's fortune became stronger day by day, and finally unified Liaodong beyond the Great Wall. It's a pity that his life span was too short and he did not wait for the heyday of Shenglong Vein.
The period was over.
Before he died, Little Orion begged my master to be the protector of the Jurchens' country. However, my father was a cultivator and did not want to get too involved in worldly affairs, so he did not agree. However, he still agreed to Little Orion and continued to nourish them with the Shenglong Formation.
The family's dragon veins will allow his descendants to become emperors."
Qin Haodong was secretly shocked when he heard it. Legend said that the Manchus had dragon veins outside the Great Wall, but now it seems that it is true.
Situ Zhaixing said: "Little Orion's son is a boy named Huang Taiji. This guy is very smart. He knows that my father's Shenglong Formation is the foundation of their family, so he tries his best to please me. After inviting my father to be the national master again, he was rejected.
After that, the name of the country was directly named after his old man, and it was designated as Qing."
"Oh my God, this is how the Qing Dynasty got its name?"
When Qin Haodong was taking a history class, the teacher once talked about the historical origin of the Qing Dynasty and said that Huang Taiji wanted to eliminate the rejection mentality of the Han people and wanted to explain to the world that the Qing Dynasty was not a continuation of the Jin Dynasty in history, but wanted to be the common ruler of the world, so he changed his name.
To be clear.
But this statement was questioned by the students at the time. Some people asked why it was named Qing. There are so many Chinese characters? Why was the country named Qing?
This question stumped the teacher at that time. Now he has the answer. It turns out that it comes from the name of Situ Qing, the leader of the Yiyuan Sect.
Situ Zhaixing continued to narrate: "Later, the dragon energy gathered in the Shenglong Formation became stronger and stronger, and finally Huang Taiji got his wish and became the emperor. After he became the emperor, he did not reduce his respect for my father, and he would pay tribute to me every year in the Yiyuan Sect.
Donate a large amount of property and provide various cultivation resources.
However, after all, the life span of mortals is not like that of us cultivators, which can reach hundreds of years. They only have a few decades to live. Soon Huang Taiji died, and his descendants succeeded to the throne one after another.
The existence of our Yiyuan Sect and Shenglong Formation has also become a secret kept by every emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Only when the old emperor dies will he tell this secret to his successor.
When Kangxi succeeded to the throne, somehow the secret of Shenglong Formation was leaked out, letting some people who supported the previous dynasty know that the Manchu Qing Dynasty had a dragon vein outside the customs. Many people went to Liaodong to explore and try to cut off this dragon vein.
Kangxi was very panicked when he found out. He went to Yiyuanzong to find my father and asked him to move the Shenglong Formation to the imperial capital.
Seeing how filial this little guy has been over the years, my father agreed to him and asked him to build an Old Summer Palace in the imperial capital, and then seal 12 high-grade spiritual stones into the avatars of the twelve zodiac animals, so that he could quietly
He quietly moved the Shenglong Formation to the Imperial Capital.
With the nourishment of the Shenglong Formation, the Qing Dynasty was at its peak. Not only was the country strong, but the emperor also lived an extremely long life."
Hearing this, Qin Haodong knew that there must be changes later, otherwise the Qing Dynasty would not have gone downhill.
Sure enough, Situ Zhaixing continued: "But there was a problem with Kangxi. The successor he originally selected was his 14th son, but after his death, his fourth son Yinzhen usurped the throne.
After Yongzheng ascended the throne, he imprisoned the 14th prince directly. But the problem came, Kangxi passed the secrets of our Yiyuan Sect and Shenglong Formation to the 14th prince, and Yongzheng had no idea about it. The 14th prince had the intention to tell Yongzheng this secret,
However, he couldn't see Yongzheng's face at all, and the matter of Dragon Vein was of great importance, and he couldn't borrow it from others.
After Yongzheng came to power, he discovered that the Qing Dynasty provided a large amount of supplies to the parliamentarians every year. This made him extremely dissatisfied without knowing why. At the same time, he also felt that our Yiyuan Sect had many masters and posed a great threat to the Qing Dynasty.
So he summoned many masters of cultivation, and at the same time put a poison called Xiaogong San into the wine for Yi Yuan Zong. After all preparations were made, this beast led the masters to launch a crazy massacre against Yi Yuan Zong. Not only
He killed my father and slaughtered nearly a hundred disciples in our sect overnight, not even a single immortal beast was left."
At this point, although Situ Zhaixing was just a ray of soul, both Qin Haodong and Hu Xiaoxian felt his shocking anger and crazy killing intent.
Qin Haodong asked: "Senior Situ, if this is the case, how did you survive?"
Situ Zhaixing sighed and said: "Since I was a child, I have shown a talent for cultivation far beyond ordinary people, and I am the well-deserved number one genius in the sect.
When I was one hundred years old, I left the Yiyuan Sect in order to fight for the Nascent Soul stage, and opened the Star-Zhaing Palace here, where I practiced in seclusion alone. It was precisely because of this that I survived. This retreat lasted for 30 years.
By the time I came out of seclusion again, the Yiyuan Sect had been crushed for more than ten years.
After learning the news, I was furious and went straight to the imperial capital to stab Yongzheng to death."
Qin Haodong felt that there was too much information obtained today, and he was shocked one after another. The death of Yongzheng has always been a mystery in history. Originally, 57-year-old Yongzheng was not too old, and he had always been in good health, but suddenly
News of his death from illness spread.
There are many folk legends about the death of Yongzheng. The most widely circulated one is that he was stabbed to death by Lu Siniang. Now it seems that the stabbing to death is true, but the murderer was not Lu Siniang, but Situ Zhaixing.
Hu Xiaoxian asked: "Senior Situ, what happened next?"
Situ Zhaixing said: "Yiyuanzong helped the Qing Dynasty, but Yongzheng massacred my entire Yiyuanzong. Killing him alone would naturally be difficult to quell the anger in my heart, so I decided to destroy the Dragon Vein of the Qing Dynasty to prevent them from continuing.
Went down.
But at this time, a large number of masters under Yongzheng arrived. Although I had reached the Nascent Soul stage, I was still outnumbered. Even so, I still managed to get seriously injured and snatched away the dragon head among the twelve zodiac animals.
Of course, this is why Yongzheng did not know the secret of the twelve zodiac signs, so he transferred all the masters guarding the Old Summer Palace, which gave me an opportunity. The Shenglong Formation completely relies on 12 high-grade spiritual stones to operate.
I snatched a dragon head, and the Shenglong Formation was naturally broken, and the so-called dragon veins were also dismantled.
Later, I was chased by a large number of masters, escaped into the inaccessible Shennongjia, and returned to the Star Reaching Palace. In order to prevent anyone from finding this place, I set up four formations outside the Star Reaching Palace and also excavated the basement.
In order to make people believe that it is my last palace, I left the Nine Dragon Cauldron used for refining medicine and some spiritual stones outside, just to confuse the enemy.
I have also made elaborate mechanisms in this basement. Anyone who can kowtow to me is definitely not an enemy and will have a chance to obtain the inheritance I left here."
Only then did Qin Haodong understand the whole story. It was precisely because of Hu Xiaoxian's kowtow that he opened the basement left by Situ Zhaixing and saw his remains. But now that he is trapped here, he doesn't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.
Situ Zhaixing continued: "Unfortunately, my injuries were too serious, more serious than I imagined. I died in the cave soon after. My biggest regret in this life is that I was not able to watch the Qing Dynasty fall with my own eyes."
