We headed straight up the mountain. The sun gradually rose from the east, and the brilliant sunlight shone on the world. The pine-covered mountain was quiet and surrounded by water. Anyone could see that this was a rare and auspicious place.
"Zhuge Liang's tomb is right here, but it has been sealed off by Qimen Dunjia. Once we find the entrance to Qimen Dunjia, we will be able to find his tomb," Xiang Fei said.
Qimen Dunjia, which evolved from the Bagua, was used to perfection by Zhuge Liang. A few stones and a piece of sand could trap thousands of troops.
It contains profound mysteries of the heavens, and is truly wondrous. Now that we've gathered together, let's see if we can crack Zhuge Liang's Qimen Dunjia.
"The real Pine Mountain should have three main peaks, hidden by the art of divination. Perhaps we can discover them by simply moving a stone or taking the right path. Let's get started."
First, we explore according to the Eight Trigrams: "Heavenly Secret, Greedy Wolf, Firefly... the positions of the Eight Trigrams."
The arrangement of Qimen Dunjia is inextricably linked to celestial phenomena. We searched according to the Bagua, but still found nothing. I took out a compass and explored according to Feng Shui, but the result was the same. We didn't find a single clue, and the surrounding situation was normal.
"Hmm, it seems that breaking through Zhuge Liang's Qimen Dunjia is no ordinary task!"
At this moment, the old blind man spoke up, “I have calculated that the day after tomorrow at the hour of Yi, the Heavenly Secret and the Greedy Wolf will shift their positions. Perhaps we can take this opportunity to find out the flaws.”
“Hmm, this is a good idea. Zhuge Liang was skilled at observing celestial phenomena, and his Qimen Dunjia was arranged according to celestial phenomena. So it’s decided, we’ll come back the day after tomorrow at the hour of Yi,” Xiang Fei said.
Just as I was about to go down the mountain, I saw a group of people coming up. Judging from their clothes, they were obviously not local farmers, but people from the city.
There were three people in the group, all wearing sunglasses, one of whom was also wearing a hat. They were walking around and looking around at Songshu Mountain. Needless to say, these people were also from the underworld.
Xiang Fei's expression changed slightly. "This is the group of people I told you about, the one wearing the hat. He was also involved in that incident back then."
The three men slowly walked up. When they saw us, they obviously knew what we were up to. One of them, a fat man wearing glasses, said, "A bunch of country bumpkins trying to rob Zhuge Liang's tomb? I think you've lost your minds."
Xiang Fei had already warned us not to break ties with these people yet, so we pretended not to hear him, packed our things, and went down the mountain.
"Hey, young man, where did you get that compass?" the man in the hat suddenly said in a Cantonese accent.
I glanced at him and replied casually, "From my family."
"Hey, so you're Liu Shi's son. I didn't expect you to have grown so much. When I first met your dad, you were still wearing open-crotch pants."
I ignored him and went down the mountain with Xiang Fei and the others.
"Young man, let me give you a piece of advice: it's best not to get involved in this, or you'll regret it."
I was getting angry; this guy's attitude was unusually arrogant. But Xiang Fei patted me on the shoulder and said, "A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan."
Of course I understood this principle, so I nodded and held back.
I was originally planning to go straight home, but Xiang Fei suddenly said that I should go to his place. I was a little surprised, because this was the first time I had ever been to his house in so long.
All I know is that Xiang Fei and Black Cat are now living at the old blind man's house. Don't be fooled by the fact that this old blind man sets up a fortune-telling stall on the street; he has made a lot of money over the years and built a small villa. He lives a more carefree life than anyone else.
The old blind man's house is halfway up the mountain. He and his family live there alone, so it is exceptionally quiet, but it is a good place to rest.
When they arrived at the old blind man's house, Xiang Fei and the others became secretive. They closed the door, turned on the light, and the old blind man moved a tile off the floor and took out a wooden box.
The cloth was placed on the table and opened, revealing a white cloth inside. At that moment, I noticed that apart from the black cat, Xiang Fei and the old blind man were both somewhat nervous, as if the cloth contained a shocking secret.
"This picture is a rubbing I made in the Shu Tomb back then. It's probably the only one, and it concerns the secrets of the Shu Immortals," Xiang Fei's voice trembled slightly.
As he spoke, he took out a white cloth and spread it out on the table. It was a mural of the ancient Shu people, depicting what appeared to be a large tomb surrounded by mountains, forming a dragon-like formation, and it was the most rare sight of ten thousand dragons gathering in the dragon vein.
Such terrain is probably unique in all of history, and can be considered the only dragon vein in the world.
Right at the dragon's head, the sky was filled with radiant light and spiritual energy swirled like clouds and mist. Inside, one could vaguely see coffins placed on the cliff.
And then, the stone coffin in the center was opened, and a person enveloped in a magnificent glow crawled out.
"This... could this be becoming an immortal?" I felt my mouth go dry. I remembered the mural I saw in the Ghost City Palace last time. Wasn't the Shu Immortal in it also surrounded by rosy light, exactly like the person who crawled out of this coffin?
"What do you think?" Xiang Fei asked.
"Perhaps there really are Shu immortals, but we don't know if this 'immortal' is the one from the myths and legends, or if it is a corpse transformed. The so-called extreme of life is death, and the extreme of death is life. Life and death are inherently interdependent."
"Hmm, judging from this, Ghost King Gu Li has also obtained this secret technique, but he has not yet succeeded."
"The secret technique, I think it must be the immortal technique that many people are looking for."
