The official post of the Song Dynasty court had good horses for the officials, which could travel eight hundred miles a day.
When there is urgent information, such horses must be used to run the "eight hundred miles urgently".
They are cared for by dedicated personnel every day and eat the best concentrated feed.
The distance from Yangzhou to Zhongnan Mountain is more than 2,000 miles, and it only takes less than three days to reach it by riding this kind of horse.
pity…
How could Zhao Yan, the mighty Prince Qi, like such a horse?
He rides a top-notch BMW and can travel thousands of miles in a day.
It's just that the three of them are not in such a hurry. They spend half of their day traveling and the other half of their time admiring the scenery and picking flowers.
The journey was quite leisurely.
In addition, all three of them are martial arts practitioners, so they don't feel tired at all when running around.
The only regret was that Li Mochou was not in high spirits along the way, so Zhao Yan had no choice but to talk to Ban He.
However, Ban He didn't talk much, which made him even more regretful that he should have brought Ming Yan if he had known this.
Now Zhao Yan was no longer in the mood to look at the scenery, and he was walking much faster.
After the Western Heaven, the three of them had arrived at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.
Zhongnan Mountain is very famous.
Because among the Taoist sects in the world, the Quanzhen Sect, which can be called one of the Big Dippers on Mount Tai, is located on this mountain.
The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, quiet and deep, and it is worthy of the name of a blessed land.
At the foot of the mountain, looking at the majestic Taoist palace on the top of the mountain, Zhao Yan and the others stored their horses in a tea shed.
Behind him is a large countryside.
Due to the tourists from all walks of life who visit all year round, people who are apprentices and apprentices, and even the nearby villagers have moved their houses here to start a small business of food and tea.
"Miss Li, it's your turn to lead the way."
When he arrived at Li Mochou's territory, Zhao Yan could only retreat behind the scenes, because he didn't know the way.
He had wanted to send someone to find the "Nine Yin Manual" a long time ago. Although it was only a fragment, if he could learn a little bit, he would always be able to add some skills.
However, because he did not know the specific location of the ancient tomb and was worried that his subordinates would not do things well and the tomb would be closed, the trip was not possible in the end.
Now that I'm here this time, I have to go in and take a look.
Hearing Zhao Yan's words, Li Mochou hesitated:
"My master hates men the most... and he never sees outsiders. If you hear some bad words later, please don't mind."
"It doesn't matter, I have a good temper."
“……”
I killed more than twenty people with one sword. It's weird for me to believe you.
Li Mochou gave him a resentful look, turned around and led the way up the mountain.
The ancient tomb is also called the Tomb of the Living Dead. It was originally built by Quanzhen Cult King Chongyang, but was later designed to win by the heroine Lin Chaoying.
The two were entangled in love throughout their lives, but in the end they failed to get married.
One person became the founder of the Quanzhen Sect and ascended to immortality, while the other became a founder of the Tomb Sect and died of regret.
It has to be lamented, the character is really a double-edged sword.
Two quarters of an hour later, the three people, who had jumped and moved countless times in the mountains, finally landed under a hidden cliff in Zhongnan Mountain.
The cliff is covered with weeds and vines, and you have to jump six or seven feet up to see a stone gate.
"The Ancient Tomb Sect is actually hidden in such a remote place. How can ordinary people find it..."
Zhao Yan looked at the steep terrain of Western Zhou Dynasty and lamented that it was too remote.
Later, I discovered that there were no mountain streams or ponds around, and I thought that the secret passage with the "Nine Yin Manual" engraved on it would not be easy to find.
But now that we know where the ancient tomb is, we can always find it by searching nearby.
"Let Banhe take me in. The rules inside the gate prohibit men from entering the ancient tomb."
"Master is already angry when I sneak out. If she sees you again, she will definitely punish me heavily..."
About to return to the ancient tomb, Li Mochou became increasingly uneasy and said to Zhao Yan with a hint of pleading.
"Okay, then I'll take a walk around the area. Banhe, you can take Miss Li in and wait for me here when you're done."
Jian was dozing off and just handed him a pillow. He was just about to find an excuse to leave for a while, when Li Mochou brought him a perfect excuse.
"yes."
Banhe knew Zhao Yan well and knew that he must have something to do, so he agreed immediately.
The two women jumped onto the high platform and stood outside the stone door. Li Mochou used the Tomb Sect's unique communication method to send a message to those inside the door.
When Zhao Yan saw this, he moved and disappeared on the spot in an instant.
After a while, the stone door opened, and a woman with half-white hair walked out.
When she saw Li Mochou, she welcomed her in happily and was also very polite to Banhe.
After the three people entered the cave, the stone door was immediately closed again.
……
Zhao Yan searched around the ancient tomb for most of the time, and finally found a small waterfall on a platform of about the same height.
This waterfall is also between cliffs. The water rushing down from a high place stops briefly on the middle platform of the cliff.
The sound of water rumbled against a large pool on the stage.
Standing on the shore and looking into the pool, it was bottomless.
Needless to say, this must be the entrance to another part of the ancient tomb.
It was early autumn this time, but the water temperature was already freezing cold.
As soon as Zhao Yan dived into the water, he used his internal energy to resist the invasion of cold air.
Then internal energy burst out from the soles of his feet, and he dived towards the depths of the cold pool like a fish.
There are many waterways at the bottom of the pool, extending to the west. After a lot of exploration, he finally sneaked into the ancient tomb.
Stepping onto the ground, Zhao Yan's inner energy flowed, and his wet clothes were evaporated in an instant.
The cave was dark and he couldn't see, but it wasn't a problem for him.
Zhao Yan took out a luminous pearl from his sleeve and placed it in front of him.
A faint white light illuminated the Western Zhou Dynasty. The light was not too bright, but it did not affect the sight.
In front of you is a narrow corridor with a smooth west wall, as if it were formed naturally.
Zhao Yan glanced briefly and walked inside.
The fragment of the "Nine Yin Manual" he was looking for should be at the end of the corridor.
"How big is this ancient tomb..."
After walking for a while, Zhao Yan was still speechless as he still couldn't see the end of this winding corridor.
Although the belly of Zhongnan Mountain is huge, it doesn’t just leave you with a maze to play with.
If at first he thought it was a naturally formed tunnel, now he knew it was absolutely impossible.
This must have been opened artificially.
So besides Wang Chongyang, who else could...
Being both in the Celestial Realm, Zhao Yan knew that he would never be able to achieve such extraordinary feats at present.
It can be seen from this that Wang Chongyang at that time had a very profound understanding of the celestial realm, and he might even be only one step away from becoming a land god.
After walking for a short while, he finally walked out of the long corridor and came to a stone room.
The Western Zhou Dynasty in the stone chamber depicts many sword moves, all of which were created by Lin Chaoying and restrained the "Jade Girl Heart Sutra" sword moves from "Quan Zhen Sword Technique".
The fragments of the "Nine Yin Manual" left by Wang Chongyang are carved on the top of the stone chamber.
Zhao Yan looked up in a familiar manner, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Although it is a fragment, it is also a rare magic book.
For his strange ability, just one glance has an effect.
As for how to maximize the effect, you have to write down all the content, go back and let Wang Yuyan sort out the essence and read it to him.
Time was precious, so Zhao Yan immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and carefully remembered all the contents in the stone chamber.
