Masterful appearance

Hearing Xiao Lianshan's incoherent shouts in front, those who followed thought that the Ming Tombs were below, and when they finished descending the steps, they were all dumbfounded.

Chu Tianci was the last one to come down, looking at everything in front of him for a long time without saying a word.

The passage below is not the Fourteenth Tombs of Ming Dynasty, but a circular stone cave like the one above. The stone wall facing it is shone with dazzling golden light under the light projected in.

You can only see clearly when you get closer. The whole slowly stone wall is inlaid with pure gold panels. On the gold panels, countless dragon heads of the same size are neatly arranged, all with open mouths. Each dragon head has a mouth small round hole.

"Brother, I counted just now, and there are exactly nine hundred and ninety-nine dragon heads all over the stone wall." Xiao Lianshan said with a smile.

Chu Tianci looked down curiously at the round hole in the dragon's mouth, stretched out his hand to touch it lightly, and said in surprise.

"keyhole?!"

"..." Gu Anqi said dumbfounded. "Keyhole? There are nine hundred and ninety-nine dragon heads here, so are they nine hundred and ninety-nine keyholes?"

Chu Tianci thought for a while and said thoughtfully.

"It doesn't matter how many keyholes there are. If there is a lock, there must be a key!"

After Chu Tianci finished speaking, he saw Wei Yu and Kong Guan standing beside the stone platform in the middle of the cave, and hurried over.

"Seniors, have you found anything?"

"Look at what this is?" Kong Guan pointed to the stone platform and said.

A picture is engraved on the stone platform in the middle of the cave. There are nine dots arranged irregularly on the picture. Each dot is movable and seems to be pressed down.

Qiu Nuo also walked over curiously, looked at it for a long time, then slowly stretched out his hand and drew a line on the dots out of thin air, connecting all the dots together, and said suddenly.

"This... this is the Big Dipper! But... why are there two more?"

"Qiu Nuo, you are right, it is indeed the Big Dipper, but there is another name here." Chu Tianci nodded and said.

"what is it call?"

"Nine Star Map!"

"Nine Star Map? Brother Tianci, what is the Nine Star Map?"

"In astronomy, there is the theory of the Big Dipper in the universe, and their rankings are white greedy wolf, second black giant gate, third Bi Lucun, fourth green Wenqu, fifth Huang Lianzhen, sixth white Wuqu, seven red Pojun, These seven constellations are called the Big Dipper, and there are two stars between Doubing Pojun and Wuqu, one star is Youbi and the other is Zuofu. In Nine, seven stars and two stars make a total of nine stars." Chu Tianci pointed to the two extra dots and said. "This is the nine stars in Qimen Dunjia, Tianpeng, Tianrui, Tianchong, Tianfu, Tianqin, Tianxin, Tianzhu, Tianren and Tianying."

Xiao Lianshan poked his head out and saw that the dot could move, so he stretched out his hand to press it, but Wei Yu suddenly made a move, don't look at an old man who is nearly seventy years old, grabbing Xiao Lianshan's arm with one hand, Xiao Lianshan found that he couldn't use his strength, and then saw Wei Yu Yu pointed expressionlessly at the top of the stone roof.

Kong watched Wei Yu's squirming lips and said coldly.

"The upper stone slab is suspended in the air. Metal cables pass through the hole and are fastened in a bundled manner. The stone slab is placed flat on the top of the cave and connected to the mechanism here. If you press the wrong mechanism, the suspended boulder will fall rapidly. No one in this cave will be spared!"

Xiao Lianshan quickly put his hand back, and looked up at the top of the stone with lingering fear.

"Brother, how do you press this thing correctly?"

"The nine stars in Qimen Dunjia have their own meanings. When Zhu Yuanzhang left this mechanism, he must leave a reminder, otherwise even future emperors would not know how to open it." Chu Tianciri said thoughtfully.

"There is no reminder. It is different from the previous agency. We haven't seen a single word since we came in." Qiu Nuo said calmly.

"...That's not true. Isn't there four characters for the entrance?" Xiao Lianshan said solemnly. "Mingtu Holy Treasure!"

"If these four words are hints, it means that there are four dots in the nine-star map that open the next entrance, but if we think wrongly, pressing the wrong one will be a disaster." Gu Anqi said cautiously.

"You retreat first, I'll try, if you are correct, you come down again, if something happens, the whole army will not be wiped out." Chu Tianci said calmly.

Wei Yu's lips were wriggling again, and Kong actually smiled after watching.

"You're thinking too simply. The traps here affect the whole body, and all the traps are interlocking. If you make a mistake, the way in may be blocked. You can either leave now, or try to unlock the nine-star map!"

"Brother, since I'm here, I have no intention of leaving. If we want to leave, we will go together. It is impossible to leave you alone. You can turn on the switch according to your own ideas. I will accompany you!" Xiao Lianshan said firmly.

Yue Qianling sat on the ground leaning on Qianlongbi and said weakly.

"I just want to go but I don't have the strength anymore. What do you like? At worst, I will be buried with you."

Qiu Nuo and Gu Anqi smiled lightly, their eyes full of support and trust.

Chu Tianci nodded gratefully, took a deep breath, thought for a while and said slowly.

"The nine stars in the nine-star map correspond to the five elements and eight trigrams in Qimen Dunjia. Among them, Tianxin star, Tianren star, Tianqin star, and Tianfu star are the four auspicious stars, Tianchong star is the second auspicious star, Tianpeng star, Tianrui star Xing and Tianzhu are the three evil stars, and Tianying is neutral."

"Brother, since Tianxin, Tianren, Tianqin, and Tianfu are the four auspicious stars, maybe these are the four?"

"The good and bad in the Nine Stars should be judged by combining the five elements, not just looking at the good and bad. The five elements and the gossip are endlessly changing. Unless there are specific reminders, it is difficult to guess the intention of this mechanism."

"The Mingtu Holy Treasure just mentioned, these four words are not related to the Five Elements?" Qiu Nuo asked puzzled.

Wei Yu suddenly squatted down slowly, drew another moon and the sun on the dusty ground without haste, then drew a circle to enclose the moon and the sun together, and slowly raised his head to look at Chu Tianci.

Chu Tianci looked at the figure on the ground, suddenly realized, and said meaningfully.

"Thank you, Senior Wei, for your advice. The Holy Treasure of Mingtu, Ming means the sun and the moon shine together, and it means the harmony of yin and yang in the universe, and it refers to the greedy wolf star among the nine stars!"

"The greedy wolf star corresponds to the Kan hexagram of the first palace in the north. The court battle meets the canopy, and the victory is named Weiwanlitong." Kong Guan said calmly. "Greedy wolves are water thieves, and the palace they enter is not suitable for marriage, construction, relocation, etc."

Chu Tianci nodded and said calmly.

"Ming refers to water. In the five elements, water corresponds to the nine stars of the sky bird star, which happens to be auspicious. The first one to say the sky bird star!"

Gu Anqi's attainments in feng shui are extraordinary, and of course she also knows about the Qimen Dunjia's Jiuxing, she nodded and said.

"The heavenly bird star represents the middle palace, and it is the place where the talisman of the marshal Dunjia is located. It is suitable for witches and workers. When Zhu Yuanzhang built the Fourteen Tombs of the Ming Dynasty here, of course the heavenly birds and stars should sit in the palace."

Chu Tianci looked at the others, took a deep breath, and slowly pressed down on the dot of the bird star. Everyone dared not breathe out, and the hanging stone on the top did not fall down. These four words are really a reminder of the Nine Star Chart, and everyone is secretly delighted.

"The second word is earth, so don't guess it. The Lucun star in the Qimen Nine Stars corresponds to the Zhen Gua of the Eastern Sangong. Lucun star is the god of thunder, the emperor of heaven, and a warrior. , sounding gold and beating drums, waving flags and shouting loudly." Chu Tianci said with all his attention. "The so-called burying bones in the battlefield, so the five elements of Lucunxing are soil."

"Soil in the Qimen Nine Stars corresponds to the Tianren star, and Tianren sees Tu to be lucky!" Kong Guan said.

"Zhu Yuanzhang must have a master of Qimen to guide him when he built this place." Chu Tianci said with a smile. "Tianren Xing corresponds to the Northeast Bagong Gen Gua. Tianren's auspicious stars are all auspicious. Everything is auspicious and suitable for all seasons. No wonder the Ming Tombs were built in this lofty mountain and they were safe and sound."

After pressing the dot representing Tian Ren Xing, everything was safe and sound, and there were only two words left. Although everyone was always worried, they were somewhat excited.

"The third word is sage... the separation of sage means reunion and soil..." Chu Tianci muttered to himself in deep thought.

"Why is it earth again? Could it be that earth can correspond to two auspiciousness in the nine stars?" Xiao Lianshan asked puzzled.

"In the five elements, only one of the nine-star gold, wood, water, fire, and earth can be auspicious. Since there is already soil in front, there will be no second soil!" Gu Anqi said in a low voice, afraid of disturbing Chu Tianci.

"You soil... plus soil on top of soil is Kyu!" Chu Tianci's eyes lit up, and he said these words repeatedly in his mouth, saying meaningfully. "Gui refers to a kind of jade used by ancient emperors or princes during ceremonies. The upper circle and the lower part have sharp edges and corners, which are generally sharp and warlike."

"It's Pojun!" Gu Anqi blurted out without thinking. "Pojun star corresponds to the hexagram of the seven palaces in the west. Pojun star is the aura of killing in golden autumn. It likes to kill and fight, and it is related to panic, weirdness, destruction and destruction. As a hermit, it is advisable to hide and stick to it. It is not suitable to travel and seek things. It is not a good thing to do anything, if you force it, you will be injured, your soldiers will be defeated, and a broken army is fire in the five elements!"

Chu Tianci nodded and said calmly.

"Fire in Qimen Nine Stars corresponds to Wenquxing, which is auspicious, and the third one is Wenquxing!"

Xiao Lianshan didn't dare to stretch out his hand for fear of being caught by Wei Yu again. His wrist still hurts like hell. Yue Qianling pressed it down with a face of disapproval. Suddenly there was the sound of rubbing against each other from the boulders above his head, and everyone was shocked. Hold your breath, look up at the top of the stone, your heart is in your throat.

Some dust fell down one after another, and the cave was quiet again. Chu Tianci let out a long breath, and found that his hands were shaking slightly.

Yue Qianling suddenly stared at Chu Tianci and laughed, and said triumphantly.

"Hehe, interesting, so you are still afraid?"

"Such a huge boulder may fall from your head at any time, aren't you afraid?" Chu Tianci asked in surprise.

"Of course I'm not afraid!" Yue Qianling said solemnly.

"Why?" Chu Tianci still couldn't figure out where Yue Qianling's courage came from.

"Because I believe in you!"
