Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 168: Sword Emperor Mausoleum


Chapter 168 Sword Emperor Mausoleum

I told Sisi this story for another long time, and it was already dusk.

Everyone didn’t even bother to eat dinner and went straight to the Sword Emperor’s mausoleum.

Since the two spaces have been connected, there is no need to enter from the Lu family at this time. The original location of the sword pool has been opened by the sword shadow, and a huge opening can be entered directly. .

Tang Buqi's statement that "there is no back mountain" is not that exaggerated. The entire Tiger Hill is still there, but it's a bit messy. The sword pond has become a big pit, and the surrounding trees and rocks are broken and broken. But in fact, it is still a good place, and it makes the "forbidden land" worthy of its name.

Some Tang family members carefully guarded the edge of the pit. There was still a small amount of sword energy inside, and there was also a strong evil spirit lingering inside. It was very dangerous at first glance. Even without Tang Wanzhuang's strict order, no one from the Tang family would dare to touch her.

Originally, Tang Wanzhuang's plan was to wait for a few days for the evil spirit of the sword energy to dissipate, for the situation below to stabilize, and for Zhao Changhe's injuries to heal, and then we could explore together. But there was a sudden and inexplicable earthquake below. We couldn't wait any longer and we had to find out the cause immediately.

And it was not Tang Wanzhuang who came alone, but all the elite members of the Demon Suppression Department gathered together, including Wu Weiyang and other hundreds of elite soldiers who came from afar later, divided their work and began to survey every road in the mausoleum in an orderly manner.

His organization and professionalism make him seem to be extremely experienced in this type of investigation.

But Zhao Changhe still trusted Sisi more. She was originally a remnant of the previous era, and no one knew the architectural style and prohibition types of the previous era better than her. There might be a large number of similar mausoleums wherever she lived.

Look, finding the way that day was just like going home. Where there was less sword energy and where the main tomb was, generations of the Lu family had been exploring successively, and she found it in the blink of an eye. No matter how professional the Demon Suppression Division was, it would be impossible. to this level.

It was the same this time. The people from the Suppressing Demon Division were surveying everywhere. Zhao Changhe and Sisi went straight to the main gate of the mausoleum. If there were any problems, they would probably be from the main mausoleum and not in the peripheral passages.

Tang Wanzhuang silently followed the two of them to protect them.

Arrived outside the gate of the main mausoleum, the body of the old man of the Lu family was still on the ground, with the lingering trace of laughter on his face. Infected by the heavy evil energy around him, it can actually give people a sense of strength, which is a bit stronger than the weak appearance before death. It seems that he can get up at any time and give you another blow.

Zhao Changhe said: "My first reaction was that the evil spirit drove this corpse to transform, but it seems not."

Tang Wanzhuang nodded. Zhao Changhe's guess is reasonable. The evil spirit here is still strong. Driven by this strong destructive murderous intent, the unconscious sword energy can rush out on its own. This body crawls It’s not surprising to get up and chop. It doesn't look like it's there yet, but it's likely to happen at any time.

This further proves the possibility of the Sword Emperor's recovery.

Tang Wanzhuang looked at the heavy stone door. This is the main mausoleum. The meaning of the main mausoleum is not just a tomb, but also a huge building complex. The guards inside are no longer the simple swords outside. Angry, I don’t know how many terrifying murderous intentions are hidden.

The so-called shock came from inside.

If nothing happens, Tang Wanzhuang feels that the "permanent sealing of this place" proposed by Zhao Changhe is the best answer. There is no need to touch the Tomb of Seniors and just treat it as if it does not exist. But since something unexpected happened, it has to be solved, right?

But the door can't be opened, and I don't even know what happened. How to solve it?

Zhao Changhe was asking Sisi: "Do you know how to open this door? You can't open it like this old man, right?"

"Of course not, that will only anger the imperial mausoleum again."

"Then how do you get in? Are there any traps in the passages outside?"

Sisi said seriously: "When people see a door, they always want to open it, but they never think about it. This is someone else's tomb. Do you want others to go in after you are buried? Why do you need to leave a mechanism that can be opened from the outside? ?"

"Well, why do you want to make a door shape?"

"Because the tomb was made during his lifetime, the door was for him to enter when he was dying. Or if he died outside, his relatives or apprentices would carry him in... The meaning of the door from the design is that once it is closed, it will The mechanism is out of touch and permanently closed. It would be the same for you and me when we designed our own tomb. There would be absolutely no preset left for outsiders to open."

"It makes sense... Then how did those tomb robbers do it?"

"The mausoleum is nothing more than masonry and soil, and you can dig it in by digging, but no one dares to dig and explode such a powerful mausoleum. If one person dies, there will be no intact body." Sisi sighed: "But it's not that difficult in fact. We can use some corrosive drugs to slowly and silently melt the thick stone door open. There will be no movement and no restrictions will be touched."

Zhao Changhe's eyes widened: "Is there such a thing?"

Sisi glanced at Tang Wanzhuang, who had been listening quietly: "I don't have it, but there must be something similar in the Zhenmo Division. After so many years since the founding of Daxia, there must be no shortage of similar tombs to be explored."

Tang Wanzhuang finally said: "I do, but there is also a type of restriction that will be triggered once the door is damaged in any way. This method may not be robust. I would like to hear if you have any other ideas."

"No." Sisi shook her head and said, "What I'm saying is that this door doesn't have such a restriction. Because this silent and non-triggering method is a plan that the tomb robbers came up with after many deaths, so Later mausoleums also began to deal with this aspect, but the Sword Emperor died earlier, and his era had not yet begun to pay attention to this."

Zhao Changhe stood aside with his hands folded, like a newbie listening to the professor's lecture.

Even Tang Wanzhuang's eyes flashed with surprise. This understanding of the previous era is a bit outrageous. Do you actually know in which year the Sword Emperor died?

Most people's impression of the powerful beings of the last era is that they died in the apocalypse when the era collapsed. Few people seriously think about it. The time span of the last era itself is not known how many years it is. It has multiple historical periods. And even for those who have thought about it, it is difficult to verify the era that each legendary figure corresponds to because it spans eras.

Not to mention the last era, even the history of this era, there is much that cannot be verified... At least the Demon Suppression Division really doesn't know in which year the Sword Emperor died.

Tang Wanzhuang did not question Sisi's judgment. She immediately took out a bottle and gently sprinkled something that looked like water beside the door.

After a while, the corner of the hard and thick stone door began to soften and become brittle visibly to the naked eye. Even Zhao Changhe felt it and tried to dig it in with the dragon bird, and he dug in effortlessly.

Zhao Changhe was a little stunned: "There really is such water. If someone drinks a little bit of it, wouldn't it be more terrifying than any other poison?"

What’s the point of this technology tree...

"It can't be tasteless and it's difficult to poison, but be careful of being splashed." Tang Wanzhuang said simply, then she ducked in through the small hole dug.

Looking at the way she bent over to get drilled, Sisi curled her lips and said, "You can't tell that her **** is quite upturned."

Tang Wanzhuang: "..."

Zhao Changhe caressed his forehead: "You really have a leisurely mind, go and drill, I'll cut you off."

"You want to see my butt, right? Get in there first!" Sisi kicked him off in a pretentious manner, chasing him away first.

Zhao Changhe rolled his eyes and was too lazy to pay attention to her, so he went in first.

Actually, he knew what Sisi was afraid of.

Same as Chi Chi before... Chi Chi said, don't show your back to others... especially in this small space, facing the possible treasures ahead.

Tang Wanzhuang showed his sincerity, and with the force of force, he was not afraid of sneak attacks, so he took the lead.

But Sisi didn’t dare... In fact, Sisi should have known that even if there were changes, she couldn’t start when she didn’t see anything. She didn’t do anything like this... She just instinctively made the subconscious choice at the end. That’s all.

She said she was already playing around with her friends, but in fact, she had never trusted him in her heart.
