After the hero goes crazy

Chapter 282 Dangerous

Although I know that tomb robbery is a felony, especially if it is the tomb of the royal family and princes, it is the capital crime among capital crimes. If one is not good, the whole family will be executed.

But the Zhao family is naturally unwilling to have the treasure mountain empty and unable to use it.

So even though they were afraid, they still tried to spend one of the gold coins.

It was also this gold coin that made the people of Shenwumen find the entrance to King Qi's tomb early. Before the news was exposed, before Emperor Shenqi and other powerful forces were aware of it, Lu Wuji stepped forward and sent The Zhao family took control and bought the teahouse into their hands, tightly suppressing the news.

Yao Shouning was fascinated by what he heard, and asked:

"Then you found the real King Qi's tomb?"

"Yes." Lu Zhi nodded.

When she spoke, she turned her head slightly, exhaling warm breath and blowing on his arm.

From Shizi's sight, she could see a few strands of her hair flying, sticking to the side of her cheek, and pressed between her lips and teeth.

Lu Zhi moved his hand while holding the rein, and felt an urge to brush her hair away for her.

But after he hesitated for a moment, Yao Shouning raised his arm and pinned the hair behind his ears.

Shizi felt a strange loss in his heart, and then said:
"But of course it's not that easy."

The process was quite tortuous. Although the members of the Zhao family knew the problem was serious at first, they were just ordinary people. Seeing that the people from Shenwumen came to buy a house instead of directly reporting to the officials to kill people, they thought that there was room for change. Greedy, intending to hide the world with a fake tomb.

It turned out that when the Zhao family dug up the gold coins, they guessed that they had dug up the tomb of King Qi.

After all, for 700 years, the news about the treasures of King Qi's tomb has spread very miraculously, and they are also worried that the family's lives will be lost after the news is revealed.

Therefore, when digging the grave, several false passages were deliberately dug, and even in the following decades, the family created two additional false tomb chambers, intending to mislead others.

And they themselves kept the real tomb dug firmly hidden, and the Zhao family would never know it.

"It's a pity that although they have made perfect preparations, there are some things that cannot be faked."

The king of Qi died very early, and the reason why the cemetery became so famous later is because of the coins minted in the eighth year of Tianyuan.

And the reason why this batch of coins are valuable is not because they are rare, "It's because Taoism is added to the coins."

Having said that, Lu Zhi paused, and then said:

"During the eighth year of Tianyuan, Taoism flourished." The prosperity of Taoism at that time was different from the prosperity of Taoist temples now.

The evil spirits have been in chaos for many years, and many Taoist priests have grown up suffering from the evil spirits.

Most of these Taoist priests are people who really have superb magic skills, but they are not comparable to these Taoist priests who only know how to open altars.

Although those Taoist priests back then were unable to reclaim seas and move mountains like the rumored gods, they practiced various spells. Now it seems that it is not an exaggeration to talk about the methods of gods.

With the fact that Taizu destroyed the demons and established the country, and the head of Taoism Meng Songyun was also willing to serve Taizu, the relationship between Taoism and the royal family is naturally very close.

In the 48th year of Daqing, the person who was named by the emperor at that time to mint coins and practice Taoism must be extraordinary.

Such coins are what make King Qi's tomb completely different from ordinary royal tombs.

Rumor has it that the Taoism on the coin has been psychic for a long time. If you can get this coin, you can use the Taoism on the coin to activate the Taoist secret method and learn the ancient Taoism that has long been lost.

It was because of all kinds of rumors that the tomb of King Qi, which was originally ordinary, was added with many extraordinary colors.

Many years ago, there was an endless stream of tomb robbers. It was not until later that no one really found the location of the cemetery.

"you say……"

When Yao Shouning heard the words 'Taoism blessing', his hairs immediately stood on end:

"is it possible--"

Dealing with Chen Taiwei a few times has cast a heavy shadow in her heart.

Thinking of 'Taoism' at this moment, she instinctively thought of Chen Taiwei, whether it was the erotic ghost holding a skeleton on the city wall at night, or the Taoist priest who appeared on Yao Ruojun's body last night after appearing at Yao's house, they all made her heart ache. perturbed.

"It should just be a coincidence—"

Lu Zhi frowned and said hesitantly.

From his point of view, it was a [-]% coincidence, after all, there were hundreds of years between them.

Chen Taiwei has achieved success in cultivating Taoism, but he did not know what kind of demon technique he used. It is fine to live for nearly a hundred years without seeing his old age, six or seven hundred years?

impossible!

Hearing his words, Yao Shouning felt relieved and nodded.

Lu Zhi didn't dwell on this issue, but said again:

"After my parents bought the teahouse of Zhao's family, they hired someone to lead the way with magic, and they found the real tomb of King Qi. The entrance is in the teahouse of Zhao's family."

It's just that the reason why the eldest princess and his wife bought this place was not for Taoism, nor for gold coins, but simply because they didn't want the remains of the royal ancestors to be trampled.

"Until this time, we have to thoroughly investigate the cemetery—"

Lu Wuji bought this teahouse back then, and it finally came in handy.

Yao Shouning breathed a sigh of relief.

The real tombstone and grave entrance of King Qi's tomb are all outside the city, so the two of them entered from the houses in the city, which is naturally a deception.

If you go in at night, at least you won't be afraid of making a noise like last time, which would arouse the vigilance of the soldiers guarding the tomb.

The two of them were not hindered all the way. After arriving in Dongcheng, Lu Zhi slowed down. When passing by a residential house, he reined in his horse, then got off his horse, and motioned for Yao Shouning to follow.

The horse stayed where it was and someone helped to lead it away. The two of them hid in the shadows, and Lu Zhi led the way. He quietly shuttled through the narrow alleys of the alley. After about two quarters of an hour, he finally arrived at the destination.

To avoid trouble, the tea house that originally belonged to Zhao's family has changed hands for the second time since it was acquired, but the appearance has not changed much.

This house has two floors. Lanterns are hung under the eaves, and a streamer hangs on each side, with the word "tea" written on it.

At this moment in the dead of night, the door of the teahouse is made up of ten or so pieces of one-foot-wide wooden boards. At this time, the cracks in the door are black and dim, and it looks no different from all the teahouses in Shendu City. It is really hard to imagine this place. Under the teahouse is hidden the rumored tomb of King Qi.

Yao Shouning was a little nervous for some reason, the cold came from the soles of her feet, and she shivered from the cold. She shivered twice, vaguely feeling that something big might happen tonight.

With this thought, her body trembled.

"My son—"

She called softly, and Lu Zhi had already taken a few steps forward, knocked on one of the door panels, and knocked a few times rhythmically.

After knocking, he was extremely patient, hiding in the shadows, turning his head to look at Yao Shouning, with a silent question in his eyes: What's wrong?
Yao Shouning hesitated to speak, shook his head, and planned to talk to him later when he entered the room.

The two of them waited for half a stick of incense, and finally there was a soft sound from inside the house. Someone unhooked the door latch in the house, and then a door panel about a foot wide was moved twice, and it was moved from the inside to the outside, revealing a A gap for only one person to walk sideways.

Lu Zhi dodged in first, then stood inside the door and reached out to Yao Shouning.

Yao Shouning also hurriedly followed, the room was not lit, and a hunched figure could be vaguely seen staring at her in the darkness.

When the two of them came in, the man lifted the door panel and inserted it into the slot again, and fastened it tightly with the horizontal bolt.

After finishing all this, the man waved to the two of them, signaling them to follow.

Yao Shouning didn't dare to speak out, and followed closely behind Lu Zhi.

The lobby of the tea house is full of tables and chairs, but because it is the entrance of the city gate, most of the people who come and go to rest here are ordinary people, so the decoration is not exquisite, and it is mainly practical.

Several people crossed the lobby and entered the doors on several floors. The guide carefully locked the door tightly and put down the thick cloth curtain before finally taking out a fire pocket and lighting up the lamp.

"I have seen the prince."

The man lit the lamp, first performed a salute to Lu, and then bowed his hands to Yao Shouning.

The room had been dark for a long time, and it was too cold to suddenly see the light. Yao Shouning narrowed his eyes subconsciously, and opened them again after a while, and saw clearly that the person in front of him was an old man in his sixties.

He had a dark complexion, wore single clothes inside, and a gray-blue patched jacket outside. When he was talking to Lu Zhi, his back that had been hunched before straightened up, sweeping away the previous sluggish look.

"Don't be too polite."

Lu Zhi waved his hands and asked:
"We are preparing to enter the grave."

The person staying here is Lu Wuji's confidant, he didn't ask much after hearing the words, he just nodded:
"I'm going to get some things, Shizi take them."

Lu Zhi responded, he took the jacket that was draped over his shoulders, turned around and went out.

After the old man left, Yao Shouning pursed his lips, and said the premonition in his heart:
"I always feel that our trip may be in danger."

After Yao Shouning said this, Lu Zhi's expression became serious.

He couldn't imagine any danger in the tomb of King Qi who was buried more than 600 years ago, but since Yao Shouning said so, naturally he couldn't take it lightly.

Her strength has been awakened, and she is very sensitive to some dangerous prying eyes, especially when it involves herself. If she says it is dangerous, then there will be big problems in this trip to the tomb.

Lu Zhi didn't dare to underestimate the 'danger' she said, but he also analyzed from Yao Shouning's words that the two of them in King Qi's tomb might gain something.

It would be fine if he walked alone, but if he brought Yao Shouning...

His slender brows were wrinkled, his lips were tightly pursed, and he thought for a moment.

"Will this danger endanger my life?"

The prince is naturally not a strong man, if there is danger tonight, but if he is sure of survival, he will naturally take the risk.

But if Yao Shouning had a premonition that he would escape death, then the tomb could not be opened, and the two of them withdrew immediately, and then informed Lu Wuji and Zhu Hengrui of the matter, and then sent another person to visit the tomb.

Yao Shouning tilted his head and thought for a while, but couldn't sense it.

She shook her head honestly:
"I don't know." After finishing speaking, he added:
"But in my opinion, as long as there is no bad premonition, there should be no danger of life."

What's more, she carefully thought about whether the two of them would have a life-and-death crisis tonight, but she didn't feel any sign of a big crisis coming.

Lu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief:

"As long as I don't die." He didn't care, "As long as Xu Xiangyi is around, even if I'm seriously injured, he can save me."

"..."

Yao Shouning thought of Xu Xiangyi's thin figure in his mind, and couldn't help showing sympathy.

"However, I feel dangerous in this cemetery." She couldn't tell where this dangerous feeling came from, but after saying this, she felt cold and rubbed her arms again, and found that the goose bumps on her hands had disappeared. floated up.

The familiar feeling of being spied on came again, and the figure of 'Chen Taiwei' appeared in her mind, panicked, and said:

"My lord, do you think we will meet—— during our trip tonight?"

"will not!"

Hearing this, Lu Zhi nodded very firmly.

"My parents are entering the palace tonight, and your grandfather is also there. The emperor is hosting a banquet, and 'he' is also at the banquet."

With the cultivation of the eldest princess, Lu Wuji and Liu Bingzhou, no matter how powerful Chen Taiwei is, he cannot be separated from each other.

Even if he does everything he can, the original body must stay in the palace and come here as a clone.

The prince slapped the long sword on his waist:
"Don't worry, if 'he' dares to come, we will call 'him' and never come back!"

"..." Yao Shouning's eyelids twitched when he heard that, but he didn't dare speak to break Shizi's confidence.

She always felt that it was good that Lu Zhi didn't say this, but every time he said these words, he would be slapped in the face in the end...

"You do not believe?"

Seeing her dodging her eyes, the prince didn't make a sound, but his eyes wandered from side to side, and he immediately guessed what was going on in her mind.

He was a little annoyed at first, thinking that he had done too many embarrassing things since he met Yao Shouning, no wonder she had no confidence in him!
Lu Zhi swore with his sword: If he sees Chen Taiwei again tonight, he will definitely cut him to pieces and let Yao Shouning take a good look at his bravery.

While the two were talking, the old man had already left and returned very quickly.

He brought some necessary tools to enter the tomb, and at the same time prepared some talisman treasures, packed them in a small bag, and handed them to the crown prince.

Time was running out tonight, so Lu Zhi picked up the things and didn't say much. The old man walked to a bed board in the corner of the room, and lifted the quilt above, revealing the wooden board below.

The old man stretched out his right hand, clasped his index finger and middle finger together, and thrust hard into the wooden board——

The fingertips inserted into the tofu like sharp knives, quietly scratching through the thick wooden board.

With a little effort, he lifted the wooden board up, and there was Yin Qi escaping from below. Amid the buzzing sound of the wind, a dark passage appeared in front of several people:
"This is the place to go to the grave!"

Holding the board, the old man looked at Lu Zhi and Yao Shouning:
"Enter from here, and I will guard here. If the two of you want to come out, when the time comes, the prince will strike with a signal, and I will open the wooden board when I hear it."

Lu Zhi nodded. He nodded his luggage and confirmed that it was correct. Just as he was about to jump on the bed, he remembered Yao Shouning's words that the trip would be dangerous. He couldn't help hesitating for a moment, and turned to Yao Shouning:

"Or, you—"

Before he finished speaking, Yao Shouning seemed to have sensed what he was going to say, and quickly shook his head:

"I want to be with you."

This incident was originally caused by Yao Wanning. She already had a premonition that the trip tonight would be dangerous, so how could it be possible for Lu Zhi to act alone?
What's more, she felt that although the trip tonight would be dangerous, it also had a turning point. As Shi Zi said, opportunities come with dangers, and there might be great discoveries, so she couldn't miss it no matter what.

Lu Zhi thought about what she said before. He only said that there would be danger, but he didn't say that his life was in danger, so he let her go.

Holding a torch in his hand, he blew on it and jumped out of the dark passage under the bed.

The stone steps dug out under the secret passage were about half a foot deep. Once he jumped in, only half of his head was exposed. At this moment, he bit the fire pocket into his mouth, and stretched out his hand to Yao Shouning:
"Come here, Shouning, I'll catch you."

Yao Shouning nodded, and also climbed onto the bed. Before she could stretch her legs down, her eyes fell on the bed, and then a vision appeared: the bed board was returned to its original place, the entrance to the tomb was sealed, and an old man lay with his hands folded on his chest. On the bed, his body was sealed on the bed by a huge red talisman, and he was completely out of breath!

"Hiss!" Yao Shouning gasped, then reached out and grabbed the sleeve of the old man who was holding the lamp to illuminate the passageway:
"Grandpa, you have to be careful, don't lie on the bed later—"

Her words were thoughtless, but after the old man finished listening, he subconsciously looked down at Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi was also surprised, and then looked at the old man.

When the old man saw Lu Zhi's expression, he seemed to have guessed something.

His tense face eased, and when his eyes fell on Yao Shouning again, he was no longer indifferent as before, the brows and eyebrows softened a lot, his eyes lit up, he stared at the worried Yao Shouning for a while, then nodded solemnly :

"Okay, I'll listen to Miss Shouning."
