Mystery Leaks

Chapter 113 Lady Snake

The river narrowed rapidly, and there was a stone wall directly in front of it, and an extremely turbulent vortex appeared below it.

"Well!"

This scene made the three of us yell at the same time, and swam back desperately without saying a word.

But the turbulent water made us desperate. Although we tried our best, we were still pulled into the vortex little by little.The impact of the water flow cannot be resisted by manpower at all.

Soon we were pulled into the vortex, sucked into the bottom of the water by the powerful vortex of water, and sank toward the endless darkness.

I tried my best to stay awake at first, but soon I couldn't hold it anymore. As soon as I took a breath, the water immediately poured into my mouth and lungs mercilessly, and my whole body was spinning and confused.

In a trance, flickering, the darkness engulfed me, and my eyes slowly went black.

The moment I closed my eyes, I didn't know if it was an illusion, but I seemed to see a white and snowy hand grabbing towards my collar.

……

"Meng Lei, Meng Lei!"

I don't know how long it took, but I suddenly felt someone calling me, the voice was very familiar, and it was getting louder.

"Wake up!"

Immediately afterwards, Huang Mao's face suddenly appeared in front of me, full of anxiety, his stomach was pressed hard, and a mouthful of water was spat out from his mouth.

I coughed violently, turned over and vomited violently. It was as if there was a tank of water in my stomach.

"Damn, it's really dangerous!" Hu Lai's voice came, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

I vomited until I was staring at gold stars, shook my head and sat down, and found that I was not the only one who was vomiting. Cao Nan and Liu Erlong were also vomiting. Not far away was a pool of water. Drenched, I don't know if it's water or sweat.

Not dead, still alive!

This was my first thought when I saw this scene, and I survived another catastrophe, God favored me.

"How is it? Are you okay?" Huang Mao came over and patted my shoulder.

"You saved us?"

I asked, it was obvious that the dark river was only partially submerged and then emerged again, but such a small amount of waterway could completely kill us, if no one rescued us, it would definitely be dead.

"Who else but us?" Huang Mao said, and then said: "It's really dangerous, if you come one minute later, all of you will be drowned."

I took a few breaths of fresh air, dispelled the blackness in my head, and asked, "How did you find us?"

"Um... We saw the tomb robber and his party leaving from this direction, so we guessed that you should be here." Huang Mao hesitated and said.

I was surprised for a while, the tomb robber left us half a day ago, why did he come out now, did he stay in the tomb for a long time?
"What happened after you went in?" Hu Lai interrupted and asked me.

I shook my head and said: "It's hard to explain in one word, I'll talk about it later, you tell me where this is first, why does it look so strange?"

"This is the west side of Jinpenling. This river runs through Linxian County and does not go through Jinpen Township, so you may not have noticed such a river." Huang Mao said.

I nodded. The west side of Jinpenling is indeed next to the next township, and the next door is Linxian County.

After waking up, I got up and looked at this terrible pool, which was formed by a river turning against the stone wall.The dark river should have flowed into the river from somewhere in the pool. Although the amount of water was not small, it was not obvious that it had mixed into the river.

However, some clues can also be found. The undercurrent in the middle is turbulent, and the water is surging upwards, colliding with the river flowing in from above, and colliding with a vortex from time to time.

I was extremely shocked. I and Cao Nan obviously entered the tomb on the unnamed hill in the south of Jinpenling, but after wandering around for a while, I ran to the west side of Jinpenling.

This is a distance of at least ten kilometers, and I am afraid that no one will believe it.

How big is that tomb?

It seems that Mrs. Jin Di is only guarding the tomb gate, and has not reached the main tomb at all.

But just this, leaving us dozens of people with less than ten fingers left.Especially in our large army, there are only three people left, those hooligans, bastards, and sluts, they died cleanly.We also escaped after a narrow escape.

This made me feel like a world away and unreal, and I never felt that being alive and breathing was such a beautiful thing.

Afterwards, Cao Nan and Liu Erlong gradually came to their senses, and Huang Mao couldn't wait to ask: "What happened in there, you seem to have gone in a lot, right?"

The three of us gathered together and slowly explained everything that happened inside.

After hearing this, Huang Mao was shocked, "Your lives are so hard, you can even escape!"

"Are you sure that statue is Mrs. Jindi?" Hu Lai was also surprised and asked hastily.

Cao Nan nodded affirmatively, and said, "No mistake, that statue is a woman, and she is playing a flute."

"I go!"

"Depend on!"

Huang Mao and Hu Lai cursed at the same time,
"What's wrong?" I asked hastily.

"You don't know, Mrs. Jindi is a famous snake lady in our practice. There are many legends about her. Some say she is human, and some say she is a snake demon. The art of snakes has been passed down through the ages, making all enemies fearful, there is no one before or since." Hu Lai said enviously.

"Madame Snake?"

I murmured the name and thought of those densely packed snake coffins. I couldn't help but feel terrified. Opening one mouthful would be terribly scary. What would it be like if they were all opened?
There are indeed many snakes, and the snake venom is extremely terrifying; others don't know if they are frightened, but we must have been so scared that we almost peed our pants.

"Madame Snake is from the ancient Yue people. She became famous in the Qin and Han Dynasties. According to the records of Fashixing, she is a witch of a tribe. When the golden flute sounds, ten thousand snakes come out of the cave. She is the uncrowned king among the ancient Yue people." Huang Mao also said.

It suddenly dawned on me that the statue of Mrs. Jindi has a cap, which is indeed a typical ethnic minority style.

But at the same time, what is strange is that she is wearing a typical gown, a Han Chinese costume.

After thinking for a while, I asked, "What is the identity of Mrs. Jindi? Why does she wear robes, and she looks like a noble lady of the Han Dynasty?"

"Her status in the official history is the empress of the South Vietnam Kingdom!" Hu Lai revealed an astonishing news.

Lightning flashed in my mind, and it was just right.

Zhao Tuo, nicknamed Dayue Wuwang, was actually the king of Nanyue. His emperor title was presented by the subjects of Nanyue. The official history does not admit this, because the Central Plains was in the Han Dynasty at that time, and there were serious emperors.

Nanyue Kingdom is too small and too backward, close to the 50 Qin army and their dependents, it is not qualified to be called emperor at all.

Mrs. Jindi, Queen of the Nanyue Kingdom, and Zhao Tuo happened to be a couple.

This also confirms that the large tomb in Jinpen Mountain is really Zhao Tuo's mausoleum, and it might be a joint burial tomb.

"However, she and Zhao Tuo, the ruler of Nanyue, only have the name of husband and wife, not the reality of husband and wife." Suddenly, Huang Mao changed the subject and said.

"Ah, how could this be?" I was shocked.

"Do you know the history when the first emperor sent 50 troops to the South of the Five Ridges?" Hu Lai asked.

I nodded and said I understood. The process was very simple. Zhao Tuo was ordered by Qin Shihuang to lead an army of 50 troops to march south.

However, the good times didn't last long, the first emperor passed away, and the six kingdoms of the Central Plains were restored one after another. The Qin Dynasty was turbulent, and it perished in a very short period of time.

The 50 Lingnan Qin army suddenly lost their allegiance, and also cut off their way home, so they established their own country, with Zhao Tuo as the leader, named Nanyue.

Hu Laidao: "Although Zhao Tuo brought 50 Qin troops, only a small half of them had real combat power, and most of them were dependents of the Qin army. Without the support of the Great Qin Dynasty, they were unable to fight against the successive uprisings of the ancient Yue people. Therefore, Zhao Tuo and Mrs. Jindi, the uncrowned king of ancient Yue, negotiated. The specific negotiation process is not recorded. The result is that Zhao Tuo became the leader of the Nanyue Kingdom, and after Mrs. Jindi became the Nanyue Kingdom, the two ruled South Vietnam together."

"You mean they are actually equal, regardless of power?" I was surprised. There is not a single word of this kind of insider information in official history.

Hu Lai nodded: "Yes, there are two seals on the imperial edicts left by the Nanyue Kingdom, one is the main seal and the other is the rear seal, and both seals are effective."

I am speechless, this series of tricky things has finally lifted a corner of the veil!
There is really an imperial mausoleum on Jinpenling, and everything points to it in the end. The involvement of my grandfather and I must be because of it.

And Lu Ningxiang is the same!
