Daoist Tuhuang held a feng shui compass in his hand. After hearing Qin Shaoyou's inquiry, he used his mana to make the feng shui compass burst into golden light, which turned into a mountain range and attracted many people nearby. .

"Through our geomancy, we found that the terrain where this karst cave is located belongs to a part of Shu Mountain. The source of Shu Mountain starts from West Kunlun and is one of the nine dragon veins of Xia Kingdom."

When Qin Shaoyou was in the Zhenyao Division, he checked the relevant confidential files and knew that there were nine dragon veins in the Xia Kingdom, which matched the terrain of Kyushu in ancient times.

Although the Great Xia Kingdom did not follow the division of the ancient Kyushu, nine dragon veins did exist and eventually converged in the capital, so there is a saying of "Nine Dragons Gathering".

Moreover, inside the imperial palace of the capital, there is also a Nine Dragon Wall that carries the fate of the country.

"So, Dongchuanhou's seven-star life-threatening array is arranged on the dragon veins of Shushan?" Su Jianqing floated over with Qiu Rong, and after hearing the story of Daoist Tuhuang, she frowned and asked road.

"That's right, and the location of the arrangement is not simple."

Zeng snatched the talk from the Taoist priest, and with a wave of his hand, he saw that the golden light projected from the feng shui compass changed, making the Shushan dragon veins a little bigger, and on the back of his head and neck, there was a halo of light. stop flashing.

Pointing to the place where the halo flickered, Taoist Master Zeng explained: "This is where Qingtang Acropolis is located. You must have heard the phrase "beating a snake seven inches", right? The so-called "seven inches" is not a specific length, but It refers to the vital point of snakes, which is the position of their heart. Qingtang Acropolis is located at the seven-inch vital point on the dragon vein of Shushan Mountain."

When Su Tingyu heard this, he also understood: "So, the seven-star life-threatening formation that Dongchuanhou has set up here is not to take someone's life, but to destroy the dragon veins of Shushan and ruin the fate of the Great Xia? "

Hearing the discoveries and speculations of the Taoist priests of the Jade Emperor Temple, everyone was shocked.

A red-clothed emissary couldn't help questioning: "A single feng shui array can destroy the dragon's veins? Besides, don't we have nine dragon veins in Daxia? Even if Marquis Dongchuan really has the ability, destroying one of them will destroy it." National luck?"

Taoist Zeng explained: "It's just a feng shui formation, of course it can't damage the dragon's veins. But in recent years, the fortunes of the Great Xia Kingdom have been declining. Under such circumstances, Dongchuanhou issued a The dangerous seven-star killing array will undoubtedly speed up and intensify the deterioration of the country's fortunes.

Not to mention, what Dongchuan Hou has set up here is not only the Seven Star Killing Formation, but also the Seven Jingguan! The yin and evil spirit in Jingguan will pass through the ground veins and spread into the dragon veins of Shushan, polluting and corrupting them.

If we guessed correctly, these people who were turned into zombies and built into Beijing Temples were either loyal people, or beloved village sages and officials.

These people died of injustice, and were built into a capital and refined into zombies. They had a lot of resentment, and the pollution and destruction of the dragon veins were also very violent!

After the dragon veins are polluted and destroyed, the most intuitive changes are the increase in disasters and the loss of morality. In recent years, Yizhou and its adjacent Shanzhou, Dianzhou and other places have suffered from constant disasters and frequent outbreaks of cults? The decline of the national fortune has also intensified. "

Daoist Tuhuang continued the topic and continued: "Although there are nine dragon veins in the Great Xia Kingdom, they will all converge in the capital in the end, so it is a trend of loss and prosperity. Besides, Yizhou, Shanzhou, In Dianzhou and other places, the chaos caused by natural disasters and man-made disasters will not affect other surrounding states? And then affect the entire Great Xia Kingdom?"

Everyone is silent.

Before the severe drought in Shanzhou, the people were displaced and unable to survive, which led to bandits everywhere. This not only brought disaster to Shanzhou, but also affected many surrounding state capitals. The imperial court had to mobilize an army to suppress the bandits, but when the army moved, the people along the way suffered disaster.

Also, this time the Qingtang Bandits were not only supported by Yizhou alone, but several prefectures adjacent to Yizhou also contributed money and food to serve as food and salaries for the frontier troops.

Where does money and food come from?

It's not all from tax increases on the people.

Among them, there are also corrupt officials who took advantage of the opportunity to increase their burden layer by layer, making the people in these states miserable, and the incidents of prostitution and prostitution also happened frequently.

As the people complained, the spirit of demons and ghosts would grow crazily, and heresies such as the Black Lotus Sect would have an opportunity to confuse all living beings, grow stronger, and cause chaos everywhere.

Aren't these all manifestations of the decline of the national fortune?

Although it is not the fault of Dongchuanhou alone, what he did here, the seven-star killing formation and the seven Beijing temples, definitely played a role in fueling the flames.

Maybe, he colluded with Qingtang and wanted to fight a tacit battle. In addition to avoiding the court's accountability, he also wanted to use human life and blood to further pollute the dragon's veins and aggravate the decline of the country's destiny!

Speaking of which, isn't Longmai a person with Qin Tianjian, who is always watching and protecting? They didn't realize that there was a problem with the Shushan dragon vein? Or did they find the problem, but didn't find out what the problem was?

It seems that the people in Qin Tianjian are not very good.

After Qin Qiaoer was astonished, she couldn't help thinking about another thing: "Why did the Marquis of Dongchuan do this? Is it to help the King of Shu ascend to the Great Treasure? Or does he have some ideas of his own?"

After pondering for a while, she asked Qin Shaoyou in a low voice: "What do you think?"

"Sit and watch."

Qin Shaoyou replied casually. Seeing that his sixth sister raised her fist to hammer herself, she hurriedly changed her words: "I'm just kidding. According to my observations these days, Dongchuanhou is a very ambitious person. He aimed at the dragon veins of Shushan and planted seven stars to kill him." I am afraid that the idea of ​​'the world is in chaos, Xia loses its deer, and all the heroes will chase it'."

Qin Qiaoer nodded, she thought so too, Qin Shaoyou's words helped her to strengthen her judgment.

After thinking for a while, she continued: "The evidence is conclusive that the Marquis of Dongchuan colluded with Qingtang. There is also physical evidence that he destroyed the dragon's veins with the intention of harming the country's fortunes. As for whether he had the idea of ​​causing troubled times and seizing power , or leave it to my master to investigate~lightnovelpub.net~ Let's not participate in the peace."

Qin Shaoyou nodded in agreement.

Marquis Dongchuan has a lot of connections in the court, so it's safer to leave it to Qi Longfei or Lu Bing to investigate whether these court ministers secretly participated in and funded these things that Marquis Dongchuan did.

While they were talking, Cui Yougui had already burned the zombies and rat monsters clean.

After confirming that there was nothing to solve in the underground cave, everyone left here and returned to Hou's Mansion.

When Qin Shaoyou got out of the secret passage, he was still holding Dongchuan Hou's half-drawn head dripping with blood.

When Wei Tu recited the mantra before and set fire to the body of Dongchuanhou, Qin Shaoyou snatched the half of his head and prepared to show it to the public, so that the soldiers in the Hou's mansion and the frontier soldiers in the barracks would know that Dongchuanhou was dead. You have already been punished, don't continue to resist.

Now that the Qingtang army is here, we must unite all the forces that can be united before we can survive the crisis.

Everyone returned to the ground, walked out of the study room, and saw that the enchantment formed by the rainwater outside was still there. The soldiers in the Hou's mansion, in order to break through this enchantment and support Dongchuan Hou, even the magic machine gun was transported over. , was about to fire a cannon.

"stop!"

Qin Shaoyou agitated his blood, and shouted loudly like a thunderbolt, which startled all the soldiers outside the study. They turned their eyes to Qin Shaoyou in unison, and saw him holding his head halfway, and said loudly:

"The Marquis of Dongchuan colluded with Qingtang and committed the crime of treason. The evidence is solid! Our red-clothed emissary was ordered by the emperor and the court, and he has now been beheaded in accordance with the law! Thinking about you, you were all deceived by him, If you don’t know about his conspiracy, as long as you lay down your weapons and surrender, you will be given a chance to atone for your crimes. Otherwise, you will be regarded as a rebellious accomplice, and you will be killed, and you will be punished by the three clans!"
