National color raw owl

In front of the Temple of Heaven, a jade platform has been built. The shape of the jade platform is very unique. It is built according to the shape of the eight trigrams. On the jade platform, a group of Taoist priests led by Xuanzhen Taoists in gray Taoist robes are waiting for the emperor.

The ceremony of entering the hall is also a sacrificial ceremony. Nowadays, the sacrificial ceremonies of the empire are all accompanied by the figure of Xuanzhen Daozong. This time, the ceremony of entering the hall will of course be arranged in advance by Xuanzhen Daozong leading all Taoists.

Surrounded by the officials, the dragon chariot slowly drove into the square, and the Taoist priests waiting on both sides saluted one after another. Before reaching the jade platform, the dragon chariot stopped. Amidst the music, the Empress and Empress Snow Flower came out of the dragon chariot one after another. Both of them were gorgeously dressed and regal, followed the emperor from left to right, and got off the dragon chariot.

During this northern tour of the emperor, the concubines in the harem only brought the empress and Empress Snow Flower. In terms of beauty and enchantment, the empress is slightly inferior to Empress Xuehua, but in terms of nobility, elegance, beauty and dignity, Empress Snow Flower is far behind the empress. far.

Under the guidance of Taoist priests, the emperor took the empress and Empress Xuehua up to the jade platform, and the dragon chariot also temporarily left from the square. All the officials went forward and knelt under the jade platform. Shengxiao rustled, and there was a lot of excitement in front of the Temple of Heaven.

The ceremony was not very complicated. The emperor took the prayer presented by Xuanzhen Daozong, recited it once, and then handed it to Xuanzhen Daozong. Xuanzhen Daozong took it into a jade plate and burned it to ashes. Pray to heaven, and everything is done. From behind the jade platform, there is a carpeted road that only leads to the main entrance of the Temple of Heaven.

The Heavenly Dao Hall is surrounded by clouds, and the whole hall seems to be shrouded in a fairy air. In terms of scale, this Heavenly Dao Hall may not be comparable to the palaces in the capital, but in terms of exquisiteness, it is even worse.

The emperor was on the jade platform, looking in all directions, surrounded by palaces in all directions. The fairy palace is composed of 36 palaces, and the Tiandao hall is only the main hall. So far, except for the Tiandao hall and the nearest few palaces After the completion of the construction, most of the palaces are still under construction and not completely completed, but the other palaces in all directions are also floating, shrouded in mist, and being in the square, it really makes people have an illusion of being in a fairyland .

Walking down from the jade platform, Xuanzhen Daozong was by his side, and the two concubines were also by his side. The loyal Marquis Feng Yuanpo had already stepped forward, holding a jade plate in his hand, and inside was a handful made of gold. The key, said respectfully: "My lord, this is the key to the main hall, unlock it with the dragon's claw, and the country will live in peace."

The emperor smiled lightly, and walked towards the main hall under the guidance of Xuanzhen Daozong and others. Feng Yuan held the jade plate in his hand and followed him. When everyone walked to the main hall, they saw the door of the main hall standing tall, with the statue of the crane god engraved on it. Turtles are all auspicious and auspicious. The emperor glanced at them, nodded with a smile, and Feng Yuanpo immediately laughed beside him and said, "Your Majesty, these are all national craftsmen invited by my ministers. Their skills are extraordinary. I hope your Majesty will like them."

The emperor stroked his beard and smiled and said, "Honestly loyal, it's hard for you!"

Feng Yuanpo stepped forward and knelt down, holding up the jade plate with both hands: "Your Majesty, please open the door, and the gods can enter the palace!"

The emperor laughed, reached out to take the golden key, put it into the shrinkage hole, and opened it easily. Immediately, two warriors stepped forward to open the door, but no one dared to step in the door first.

The gate was half open, and a burst of fragrance came from inside. The first thing that caught the eye was a cloud of immortal energy. Then I saw clearly that the hall was extremely spacious. In the middle of the hall, there was actually a spacious pool. It is the color of green onions. Now it is the cold winter and it is difficult to find greenery, but there is a lot of greenery in front of you. In the pool, there are rockery and flowing water, which is wonderfully crafted. There are white cranes dancing in the middle of the pool, and the pool is full of greenery. , I didn't know what kind of exotic flowers and plants they were for a while.

The emperor opened his eyebrows, the empress and Empress Xuehua also showed surprise when they saw it.

"This is the fairy palace you prepared for me?" The emperor said with a smile: "Honor Jingzhong, I never thought you would have such thoughts. It's so rare...!"

"My lord, in the pool are the nine-day cranes found in the south, and the thousand-year-old tortoise found in the east." Feng Yuanpo bowed his body and said with a smile: "It's rare to see the rare flowers and plants in the pool. , I sent people to look for it meticulously, if it was done elsewhere, I am afraid it would be difficult to survive, but under this Heavenly Dao Palace, there is a spiritual land where all things are born and immortal, so they can last forever!"

"Good...!" The emperor stroked his beard and smiled, "Good place, good place...!" Looking up, he saw another jade platform not far behind the pool. Looking at the faint light, he knew that it should be the altar for Zen meditation.

"Your Majesty, I invite you to enter the palace!" Feng Yuanpo handed the jade plate in his hand to the warrior beside him, straightened his clothes, and knelt down on the ground, "When immortals enter the palace, everything will be evergreen, and my Great Qin will last forever!"

The emperor raised his hands, and under the eyes of everyone, he finally stepped into the hall. Everyone dared not follow and could only kneel and wait outside the gate.

The emperor entered the hall alone, walked around the pool, then boarded the jade platform, sat cross-legged, and finally raised his hand and said: "Queen, Daozong, Jingzhong, you all come in!"

Only then did the crowd file in. When they entered the main hall, the temperature outside was very low, but inside the main hall, there was no stove in sight, but it felt as warm as spring without a trace of chill.

"Your Majesty Jingzhong, why is this place so warm without seeing the stove?" The emperor obviously noticed this and asked with a smile.

Jingzhong Hou looked around, took a few steps forward, and respectfully said: "I don't know if the Holy Majesty still remembers that when I climbed to the Tiange and overlooked the Immortal Palace, I once said to the Holy Majesty that the location of the Heavenly Dao Hall was not chosen lightly. It’s a great hidden mystery, under this Heavenly Dao Palace, there is a mysterious secret hidden...!"

The emperor nodded and said: "I remember, these days, I have been thinking about this matter, Jing Zhonghou, you told me the mystery below, but it was true? If you didn't, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor."

"I don't dare!" Jing Zhonghou knelt down, "What I said is absolutely true, today I invite the Holy One to see it personally."

The few people around were all puzzled. The emperor seemed to know that there was something mysterious going on under the Palace of Heaven and Dao. He seemed to be looking forward to it, but he didn't know what Feng Yuanpo was talking about.

The emperor stood up, came down from the jade platform, and walked to Jingzhonghou, "Jingzhonghou, you get up first, and take me to see...!"

Feng Yuanpo hastily said yes, got up, glanced at the other people beside him, but hesitated, the emperor asked: "What? What's wrong?"

"Your Majesty, that is a thing of the sun, so...!" After hesitating for a while, Feng Yuanpo finally said: "My Majesty, I am afraid that the empress and empress will hurt their jade bodies after going down...!"

The emperor smiled and said, "It's easy." Turning back, he said, "Queen, you are all waiting here, Xuanzhen Daozong, Xuanyuan Shao, you two will wait with me and Jingzhong to have a look."

Xuanyuan Shao was the emperor's personal bodyguard, he could hardly leave him at every step, and naturally he was always by his side all the time today.

"Your Majesty, the Xuanzhen Dao Sect is also a body of cultivating immortals, so naturally we can get it, but...!" Feng Yuanpo glanced at Xuanyuan Shao, a little confused: "But General Xuanyuan has the body of a diamond, with a murderous aura, so... ...!"

"So, I forgot, Xuanyuan is a general, and his murderous intent is too heavy...!" The emperor pondered for a while, "Forget it, Xuanyuan, you stay here, I will go down with Xuanzhen Daozong."

Xuanyuan Shao frowned, knelt down on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I can take off your armor and weapons. Your Majesty has a body of ten thousand gold, and I will guard you at all times...!"

"This is the dojo that Jingzhonghou built for me. It's very safe, so don't worry too much." The emperor smiled and said, "I have the Xuanzhen Taoist sect and Jingzhonghou to serve you, and besides, I'm not old, so you don't have to worry too much... !" After a pause, he ordered: "Protect the queen!" Without further words, he said to Feng Yuan, "Lead the way!"

Only then did Feng Yuanpo lead the way, Xuanzhen Daozong accompanied the emperor and followed behind, the queen couldn't help calling out, "My lord...!"

The queen turned her head, and before she could speak, she smiled and said, "Don't make a fuss, you don't have to worry, this is my dojo, God bless you!"

Empress Xuehua also said softly: "Your Majesty, my concubine is not afraid, this concubine wants to go down with you, and this concubine also wants to see what is mysterious under the Heavenly Dao Palace."

"Don't mess around." The emperor said in a deep voice, no more words, and the few people quickly turned to the side hall. The emperor looked around, and every place was beautifully designed. Xuanzhen Daozong followed, asking Said: "My lord, there is really something mysterious under the Temple of Heaven?"

"Honor Jingzhong, tell Daozong," said the emperor.

Feng Yuanpo walked in front, bowed his body, respectful, turned his head and said cautiously: "Daozong, under the Heavenly Dao Palace, there is a keel...!"

"Dragon bone?" Xuanzhen Daozong frowned, "What kind of keel are you talking about?"

"Daozong, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it." Feng Yuanpo sighed: "At the beginning of the site selection, it was said that the place was full of spiritual energy, but after excavation, a keel was dug out underneath. I blocked the news. Not many people know about it, but if the keel appears, it must be auspicious, and if the keel is here, it is naturally a sign from the heavens!"

The emperor smiled and said: "I am also a little surprised, Jing Zhonghou, go faster, I want to see what the keel looks like!"

Feng Yuanpo quickened his pace and walked to a gate of the side hall. It was made of refined steel, and it looked solid and indestructible. Feng Yuanpo stepped forward and pressed the switch, and opened the gate of refined steel. It was not dark inside. It is a staircase extending downwards. The staircase is made of white marble and can accommodate three people walking side by side. On the walls on both sides, at intervals, there is a night pearl inlaid on the wall. The pearl emits light. The staircase is clearly visible.

"Your Majesty, I'm walking ahead. My Majesty and Daozong followed in my footsteps. The keel appeared, which was unusual. I was afraid that someone would sneak underneath, so I set up traps inside to prevent anyone from sneaking in." Feng Yuanpo said solemnly: "If you don't know the mechanism and break into the mechanism easily, you will be smashed to pieces."
