Yu Dao Qiankun
Chapter 52 Li Huang Mausoleum
Chapter 52 Li Huang Mausoleum
The road to Emperor Li's Mausoleum is safe.
After all, Emperor Li was the most cruel and ferocious of the Eight Great Emperors.In the past, the direct descendants of the third and fourth generations of God Emperors were all slaughtered by Emperor Li.Even the four generations of god emperors were demoted to the title of god emperor, and they were almost dragged out of the emperor's coffin and burned their corpses.
His vicious name made the Seven Great Demons of Yin Mountain not dare to offend him easily.
On their way to Emperor Li's Mausoleum, Peng Yu and his party were followed by the Seven Great Demons of Yin Mountain.Countless willow coffins followed the battleship team, but none of them dared to rush up to stop them.
In half a day, everyone came to the Emperor Mausoleum.
It was a huge wooden stake hundreds of miles in diameter.There are green mountains and beautiful waters as screens on both sides of the wooden piles, forming a pattern of dragons and tigers.
"Emperor Li fought with Xuanyin Tianliu and Ling Huang. The Tianliu was broken, and the stake in front of him is the tree root left by Tianliu." Wang Jian: "Huang Li's imperial mausoleum was built on the wreckage of Tianliu. According to legend, the Linghuang took the sky Willow Heart, build a halloween coffin for my brother, and cast a poison spell to lock the corpse of the Spiritual God Emperor."
"Then the Emperor Ling opened up the great world of Emperor Li's mausoleum and anchored it here."
Peng Yu urged Qiankun's purple pupils, and above this huge willow stake, he saw a vast world hidden in the void.That world is the Mausoleum of Emperor Li.
Turning his head and looking back, the corpses of the Martial Saints were lurking in the sky, waiting for the sacrifice of the Sixth Prince.
If the sixth prince angered Li Huang, but was killed by Li Huang, could they take advantage of it?
After all, the feud between Emperor Li and Emperor Ling was very big.
Look, there is no need for Tiansong to return to the sun after death.Instead, he used the yin coffin to damage the emperor's corpse, imprisoned the spirit god forever, and even got a big world to suppress the emperor's coffin.
After Peng Yu saw the arrangement of the emperor's mausoleum, he also began to doubt whether he was taking a risk in this step.
It seems that the hatred between the two seniors is very deep?
"But I'm sure he won't do anything to me. As long as he wants to keep future generations alive."
Peng Yu took a deep breath and commanded, "This place is not far from the Emperor's Mausoleum. When we land, let's walk over."
Zhao Lang: "Your Highness, what if those yin demons attack?"
"It's okay, before the Emperor Mausoleum, how could he be allowed to be presumptuous."
"Furthermore, the Tianyue Army is here."
Tianyue Corps, one of the thirteen regiments of Dakun, is best at mountain combat and is also responsible for guarding Emperor Li's mausoleum.
Around the imperial mausoleum, thousands of warships were lined up.Although there is no Martial Saint, there are also three divine generals who are not inferior to Yuan Yiling.
Peng Yu and others got off the boat and walked to the Hall of Enjoyment in front of the Emperor's Mausoleum.
The Seven Great Demons of Yinshan got up from the willow coffin and greedily stared at the boy in the lead.
"What a lot of blood and essence, this child is the Holy Body, right? After eating him, I can even restore the peak strength before my death."
"Wait... We agreed in advance that the seven people will share it equally. Go back and throw it into the alchemy furnace to make the Ten Thousand Blood Demon Pill."
"The fourth, the fifth, you read it wrong. This kid is the true body of Tianwu, and the Holy Body of Kunwu is another..." A hoarse voice sounded: "Well... this kid is really good-looking. It's a pity that the old body is inconvenient to move, otherwise …”
"Otherwise, what do you really want to do with him? Don't forget, he is the grandson of the Zhao family? What happened to you, are you planning to recognize that eldest sister as a grandmother?"
"The real body of Tianwu next to him can also be. King Gao Yang's lineage is full of Yuan Yang. If he can...hehe...the old body will not dislike it."
Several big demons were bickering in the air, and their greedy eyes swept over Peng Yu and Zhuan Yang.
Guys, buy one get one free.There are two of the ten gods in the world!
When they came to the gate of Xiangdian, a general and an old man led the crowd to wait.
The general was the commander of the Tianyue Corps. After salute, he stepped aside and was presided over by the old man.
The old man said humbly: "Your Highness, because the Xiangdian Temple has been in disrepair for a long time, it cannot be opened. Please forgive me. We built a round altar overnight, and you are invited to worship on the altar."
"It doesn't matter. I just passed by this place and took a look at the seniors."
The old man was from Empress Li, the direct line of guarding the imperial mausoleum.
Peng Yu didn't have any air, and helped him up: "Old brother, don't be so outspoken. After all, you and Gu are still the same generation."
That's right, who made himself high in seniority?Such an elderly Empress Li was only Kun Hao's peers.
The old man then saw Xiao Muju.
Complexity flashed in their eyes, and they nodded slightly to each other.
The wife of Emperor Li, the Empress Xiao of the Profound Heaven.In the past, when Emperor Li died, the Empress of Heaven and all the princes and daughters suffered.If King Gaoyang hadn't taken the risk to save the Empress Shangxuantian, I'm afraid the lineage of Emperor Li would have died out.
As for the lineage of Empress Li, the direct descendant is the posthumous son of the Empress of Heaven.After his birth, he was banished to the Emperor's Mausoleum by Emperor Ling.During the initial period, the Xiao family from Wushan County took care of them a lot, so the relationship between the two families was good.
Seeing Xiao Muyu standing behind Peng Yu, the old man thought to himself: It seems that the Xiao family is not willing to be lonely, and plans to return to the imperial capital.Also, after a thousand years of silence, how could the Xiao family have to produce another queen?However, they actually sent the Xuannv heir of the direct line to His Royal Highness, and the cost was a bit large.Looking at it this way, we cannot follow the plan prepared in advance and must be more dedicated.
He winked at a few clansmen behind him, went down to revise his preparations, and then the old man asked Peng Yu to ascend to the altar as the officiant.
Because Peng Yu did not bring the will of the emperor in this sacrifice.He couldn't follow the specifications of the emperor's sacrifice. In the name of King Zhao, he brought white cows, white pigs, and white sheep to sacrifice to his ancestors with the ritual of prison.
Except for the old man and Peng Yu who climbed the altar, everyone else was waiting under the altar.
"Kill him, kill him. Emperor Li shows his spirit and shoot him to death!" In the dark, the Seven Great Demons of Yin Mountain suppressed their excitement and kept praying.
The ceremony went smoothly, and Peng Yu pretended to finish the whole set of rituals according to the homework he made up for last night.Anyway, he is just a 12-year-old kid, and everyone can understand if he makes a slight mistake.
boom -
The world above the willow stake revealed its true face, and countless chains of the universe rune entangled the world and descended over the round altar.
"The construction method of this world turned out to be the Qiankun fairy method? Could it be that there are ancestors of the Qiankun Sect around the Linghuang?"
In the world, there is a majestic imperial mausoleum looming.Five colors of light flew out from inside, and Peng Yu disappeared from the round altar.
"His Royal Highness!" Everyone turned pale in shock, and Zhuan Yang and Yuan Yiling rushed up.
Yuan Yiling grabbed the old man: "What's going on?"
"Yes... it is the ancestral god who appears, and will... take away His Highness. But don't worry, the ancestral... ancestral god may not have malicious intentions. Maybe... maybe just talk?"
Don't talk about outsiders, he doesn't believe it himself.
The old man secretly prayed: Ancestor... you must not do it.
At present, the Li Huang family has just returned to the center.If something happened to His Royal Highness, their hundreds of years of hard work would come to nothing.
"I'm going, Huang Li is too dark, right? He still plans to eat alone?" The coffins of the Seven Great Demons of Yin Mountain rubbed against the sky, flickering with thunder.They were in a very bad mood, and they were all neighbors of Liushan County.You didn't say that it was divided equally with us, but everyone ate it?
"There's still a real Tianwu here, why don't we take him away first?"
"Emperor's mausoleum. Forget it, wait for him to come out before arresting him."
When the Seven Great Demons saw that Emperor Li had captured Peng Yu, they were even more convinced of the rumor.Maybe soon, Emperor Li will be able to return to Yang?
……
Peng Yu's eyes flickered, feeling that he had passed through the barrier of heaven and earth and entered another world.But at that moment, he felt the endless power of the universe.
That's right, this is a big world created by Qiankun Xianshu.
At that moment, Qiankun Dao force was injected into the body to speed up the operation of the Lingchi system.
"Humph - Qiankun Sect, is it the first of the five great tribulations?"
Peng Yu looked at the source of the voice, it was a young emperor.
He sat lazily on the ornate brocade bed, disheveled, looking at himself frivolously.Beside him, there are several Meiji who are also disheveled.
Emperor Li was far younger than Peng Yu imagined.It's like a big boy who has just stepped into society and has not been beaten.
Unruly, impulsive, seems a little lewd?
Peng Yu pondered the character of Emperor Li in his mind, and looked at the surrounding environment.
You seem to be in a palace?
"This is Zhen's bedroom." Li Huang said slowly: "The child of the royal family, are you coming to worship me? Are you afraid that I will trouble you?"
"If Your Majesty is looking for trouble, you must look for my ancestor, the Spirit Emperor. If you can't beat the Spirit Emperor, you will find a junior in me who will be unlucky. Then the supreme god emperor will be too cheap."
Seeing that Emperor Li was pulling him in, Peng Yu didn't worry about Emperor Li's actions.
What he was most worried about was that Emperor Li did nothing and ignored his sacrifice.As long as you are willing to talk, everything is easy to talk about.
The boy walked over with a smile and climbed onto Emperor Li's dragon bed.
Li Huang raised his brows, waved Miki away from him, and returned to the picture scroll hanging next to him.
"Fake?" Peng Yu was a little disappointed: "I thought they were your concubines."
"My concubines have been dismissed by your ancestors long ago, so I promise them to remarry."
Li Huang's face was full of disgust: "It's just that your ancestors are not good-looking, and even my family members are unwilling to stay. Anyway, let them be buried, and get some people to accompany me."
martyrdom?Of course I disagree!
Li Huang thought in a shambles: "I killed my brothers and sisters back then, but I buried a lot of them. It's your ancestor who was stingy, and only willing to get some puppet paper figures, picture scrolls and clay figurines to be buried with them."
That further shows that the Emperor Ling is benevolent.
Peng Yu argued in his heart, but without saying a word on his face, he took the initiative to pick up the golden cup and poured wine for himself and Emperor Li.
"Senior, a toast to you."
Seeing the boy holding the wine bottle, Li Huang took the wine bottle away and pointed to the wooden cabinet beside the dragon's bed: "The third compartment, the red bottle, pour it for yourself."
"Little furry boy, learn how to drink as an adult."
Another experience of being treated as a child.
Lao Tzu is also an adult on earth!
Of course, even if the age of 20 is added, 32 years old is still underage in Li Huang's eyes.
Peng Yu climbed over to take out the flower dew and poured it on himself.
Smell it, um, it smells good...
"For the sake of your sacrifice, I'll accompany you for a drink."
"Then get out of here obediently, and take your people away from the imperial mausoleum."
Li Huang finished his drink in one gulp, grinned wildly, and looked a little crazy: "I just watched a good show, let's see how you deal with those demon corpses outside."
"I can't beat it. So I came to my ancestors for help." Peng Yu drank the flower dew with a smile.
It's rose water, quite mellow.
"Even if it's not one, but everyone is from Empress Ren. You always see the face of the ancestors, you can't let a Kunwu Holy Body be eaten by others, right?"
"When you go back to the Taimiao gathering, will you always be scolded by your ancestors?"
"Besides, a Kunwu clan died in front of your house. Others don't know, they think you are afraid of those outsiders."
"Boy, do you want to be aggressive?"
"No, it's coquettish."
Relying on his 12-year-old image, Peng Yu can shamelessly use methods that adults cannot use.
"Linghuang is the ancestor, and you are also the ancestor. The younger generation is looking for you to act like a spoiled child. I beg you to do something, can't you?"
"In Liushan County, if the juniors don't count on you, who else can they count on?"
