Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 583 The Entrustment of Lao Yan

I shook my head and stood stubbornly where I was, the others didn't move, they all looked at Lao Yan, Captain Lin's fists were clenched, looking like that, I wanted to give Lao Yan a fist.

"You think all of us will die here?" Lao Yan's face was gloomy, and then he made an ordering gesture: "Bi Zhengwei, code-named Lao Yan, director of the 701 secret department of the China Cultural Heritage Administration. Now I announce that Liu Chang'an is the acting director of 701. Please lead your team members and continue to carry out the national mission."

I used all my strength to hold back my tears. He is entrusting 701 to me. How can I bear his trust?
Of course, this also shows that he is hinting to me that he has issued an order. As the acting director of 701, I must respect his order and let him go with dignity.

"Yes!" I stood up straight, gave him a military salute, and then said loudly with tears in my eyes, "Lao Yan stays here, and the rest follow me."

"Yes!"

Everyone stood up straight and responded loudly.

I led them slowly approaching Master Bai, only to hear Master Bai chuckle: "Hey, old fashioned."

"You!" Yazai stared at him coldly, I grabbed him and shook my head at him, then crossed the path left by the mercenaries and walked slowly outside.

Bai Ye's words came lightly from behind: "Old Yan, Lao Yan, after all, your life is still in my hands."

I didn't hear Lao Yan's voice, presumably he had nothing else to say, I couldn't hold back my tears long ago, but I didn't raise my hand to wipe them, Master Bai and his people are still behind, I can't let them see the joke .

Turning the corner, I suddenly bent my legs and knelt on the ground. Tears poured out of my eyes silently. There were muffled sobs all around me. Professor Xu was crying uncontrollably, his eyes seemed to have been soaked in water. Generally, the swelling is outrageous.

Only Kumbu is still reasonable. He comforted everyone with red eyes, and then asked me in a low voice, what should I do?
"Look for the tomb of Li Shimin, and bring back the "Preface to the Collection of Lanting Pavilion"." I said slowly, each word weighed more than each other, and finally looked up at the people around me, with stern eyes: "Find a way to separate the mercenaries and break them one by one. ,At last……"

I slashed across my neck with my right hand fiercely, with fierce eyes.

William, even if I die this time, I have to keep you here!

A group of people continued to move forward after sorting out their emotions. Even though the passage below was used by William and the others, I believe that Li Shimin's tomb must be hidden behind one of the passages.

"Hei King Kong, draw the picture of the passage; Professor Xu, judge the year of these passages; Kunbu, release Shadow Gu to explore the way; Yazai and others guard them." I ordered them one by one. After there was no old smoke, I seemed to I grew up in an instant, and the difficulties in front of me were temporarily suppressed in my heart, I only hoped that I could lead them to complete the task, so that the sacrifice of Lao Yan would not be in vain.

Everyone moved quickly, and Hei Jingang drew the passages one by one with Empress Changsun's tomb as the center.Kumbu also released five or six Shadow Gu, and began to explore each passage. Every time we passed through a passage, Professor Xu and the boy analyzed the composition of the soil to judge the age.

Through his judgment, I found that only two of these passages were from the Tang Dynasty, and the rest were dug by later generations.

"A grave robber?" I asked.

Professor Xu shook his head, saying that it might not be true. There are tomb robbers, but there may also be organizations that come in under other names, because the methods of some passages are not like robbing holes at all, and it is not clear what they do.

I suddenly thought of something, so I pulled Professor Xu and asked if there was an old Liu family's technique?

"Have."

It wasn't Professor Xu who came back to me, but the gopher. He kept putting his nose against the wall of the passage to smell, and then said mysteriously: "This road is different from other roads..."

kindness?
If there is something in such an obvious sentence, if I can’t hear it again, it’s a waste of time. What does it mean?
The gopher pointed to one of them and said, "This way has the tricks of the old Liu family."

I stared at the direction he was pointing in dumbfounded, unable to say anything: "This, is this impossible?"

"The Black Spirit Star Officer's method of digging robbery holes is different from other sects, because they are not good at beating, so the robbery holes handled by star officials are not smooth enough, and the soil on both sides will be re-patted every ten steps to leave a hole. The traces are very obvious." The gopher explained softly.

I stood in front of the robbery hole he was referring to, only to feel that things became more and more unpredictable.

According to what the burrowing squirrel said, this burglary does have a distinctive old Liu family's technique, but this burglary is indeed one of the two burglars of the Tang Dynasty...

I touched the cold sweat on my arm. For the first time, I didn't know what to say. I just felt chills all over my body. The fear that came out of my bones appeared again. I couldn't restrain my knees from bending, but I was stiff I held back.

Did the ancestors of the Liu family rob Li Shimin's tomb in the Tang Dynasty, or participated in the construction of Li Shimin's tomb?

I was tied up in this series of questions in my mind, and I just felt like I was breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Professor Xu, these two passages, do you have a way to determine which passage is older?" I almost suppressed my throat, and I was so scared that I dared not move.

Professor Xu seemed a bit unbearable, but he still said slowly: "The one you're standing on is even longer."

hum!
The strings in my mind collapsed in an instant. The longest passage could not have been dug by tomb robbers. It is self-evident what the ancestor of the Liu family did. He must have participated in the construction of Zhaoling. ", but there is no mention of this ancestor, not even the existence of this person.

It is not strange for grave robbers to build mausoleums for official families. The reason why I feel chills all over is because when the Liu family was in the Tang Dynasty, there was a watershed decline, and the whole family was sluggish!And from then on, the Xuantian Big Dipper Pearl began to disappear, as if the Liu family began to retreat in an instant, and the Black Spirit Star Official began to slowly lag behind other sects. It was not until the period of the Republic of China that there was a certain revival, but It is also completely incomparable with the previous Liu family.

Because according to records, the Black Spirit Star Official is considered to be the pinnacle of the tomb-robbing world, but when it was the most powerful after that, it was only tied with other tomb-robbing sects, and it was not as brilliant as before.

This series cannot be a coincidence, it can only show that this ancestor, even Tang Taizong Li Shimin, was related to the decline of the Liu family.

"Professor Xu, are you sure?"

Although I knew that Professor Xu would not make mistakes, I still asked without hope.

Sure enough, Professor Xu shook his head at me, meaning he wasn't joking.

"Chang'an, don't think about it too much. Maybe the ancestor of the Liu family was just forced to do nothing. You also know that the ruler had absolute power at that time." Professor Xu comforted.

I smiled wryly, of course I understand this truth, but I always feel that things are not that simple, maybe ordinary people in the Liu family really have no way to disobey the emperor's order, but the Black Spirit Star Officer can't, his ability is enough to make him even There is also a certain amount of room for maneuver in the face of power.

I always feel that the ancestor of the Liu family must have hoped to achieve something by building Zhaoling!
