Chapter 400 The Brother's Secret

Er Yuehong said that he had heard the legend of Ji Changsheng and witnessed Tongtian's means with his own eyes, and then he realized one thing.

"Perhaps, you are the only one who can enter the tomb of King Xian!"

Ji Changsheng couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

"Second Master really thinks highly of me."

Er Yuehong said hurriedly.

"I am speaking from the heart. You are not only the only one who can enter the tomb of King Xian, but also the person I trust the most."

After that, he added another sentence.

"Among these people."

Ji Changsheng was stunned at first, and then understood what he meant.

"Second Master, is there anyone in the team who can't be trusted?"

Er Yuehong's expression became solemn, and he nodded slightly.

"Yes."

It turned out that this was the real reason why he wanted to talk to Ji Changsheng alone!

Ji Changsheng's expression was stern, and he thought about it carefully.

In the team, the tomb-raiding trio and the fat brother were absolutely trustworthy.

Blackback Laoliu is an old man over a hundred years old, about to step into the coffin. It is expected that he will not have any small thoughts, and his personality is carefree, and he does not seem to be a scheming person.

Yin Shuangyue was cursed, and she came to find the Zhuchen Pearl to survive, so there should be no problem.

The only suspicious person is Xiaowu!

"Is it Xiaowu?"

Er Yuehong shook his head and gently said an unexpected name.

"Zhang Qiling!"

Ji Changsheng couldn't help but look back at the little brother in the distance. This answer made him very puzzled.

How could the little brother have a problem?

"How did you see it?"

Er Yuehong replied.

"As for the little brother of the Zhang family, I know his identity, and he should not be suspected."

"But the problem is that he has something important to hide from us!"

Then, he explained it carefully.

It turned out that more than 60 years ago, he came to Zhalong Mountain to settle down. Just after getting acquainted with the local villagers, he heard a long-ago story from one of the old men.

More than two hundred years ago, a young man from another place came to Zhalong Mountain and entered the Worm Valley alone. He stayed there for more than a month before coming out.

When the young man came out, he was seriously injured and dying. Fortunately, he was found by a local hunter and rescued back home. He recovered after more than half a year.

In order to thank the villagers for saving his life, this man gave the villagers some precious gold and silver treasures, and helped the villagers eliminate a group of bandits nearby before leaving.

The villagers appreciated his kindness and asked someone to draw a portrait of him. They have been worshipping in the village ancestral hall and kept a treasure he left behind.

Er Yuehong said, took out something from his arms and handed it to Ji Changsheng.

"This is what that man left behind."

Ji Changsheng took it and saw that it was an ancient jade from the Han Dynasty, but the pattern on it was very special, with the shadow of the ancient Dian Kingdom!

Obviously, this jade was brought out from the tomb of King Xian!

Er Yuehong continued.

"The person in the portrait is the patriarch of the Zhang family, Zhang Qiling!"

Zhang Qiling!

Ji Changsheng looked at the ancient jade in his hand, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

"Is there such a thing?"

As long as Er Yuehong is not old and blurry, or making up stories, the person in the portrait must be the little brother.

In this way, the little brother entered the tomb of King Xian alone more than two hundred years ago and brought out some treasures!

But this is very strange, why did the little brother enter the tomb of King Xian?

The little brother was not cursed by the ghost cave, was it just for gold and silver treasures?

Ji Changsheng suddenly thought of one thing, the underground palace under the Zhang family's ancient building is actually a fairy palace for cultivating corpses and immortals!

And the Zhuchen Pearl has the effect of making people become immortals on the spot, so the little brother may have come to find the Zhuchen Pearl for this purpose!

If this is true, the little brother has entered the tomb of King Xian, so has the Zhuchen Pearl fallen into his hands?

Ji Changsheng thought about it and overturned this conclusion.

The Zhuochen Pearl is the most important magic weapon in the entire Tomb of King Xian. It is this thing that maintains the operation of this formation.

If the Zhuochen Pearl was taken away, this formation would have been broken long ago!

So the Zhuochen Pearl should still be in the tomb.

Then the purpose of the young man going to the tomb is very intriguing.

Ji Changsheng said after returning the ancient jade to Er Yuehong.

"He definitely didn't hide it from us on purpose. I'll ask him later and we'll know."

He believed that the young man would not lie to anyone else.

Er Yuehong nodded and said without comment.

"I hope so."

"I just want to clarify some things before going to the tomb."

People in the tomb robbery business all have their own ulterior motives. If they are not absolutely trusted, they cannot go to the tomb together.

There are countless cases of black eating black throughout the ages. Many tomb robbers have been betrayed by their accomplices and died in the tomb!

Out of professional instinct, Er Yuehong expressed his doubts.

Ji Changsheng couldn't help but smile bitterly and said.

"Second Master, if it was someone else, I could still find out the details, but he is the younger brother."

What can you find out about an amnesiac who often forgets things?

Er Yuehong frowned slightly.

"Don't you have any doubts at all? Is his amnesia real?"

Ji Changsheng laughed and said.

"Whether it is true or not, I believe him."

"Anyway, I understand what you mean, but there is no need to worry too much."

"Anything else?"

Er Yuehong said quickly.

"Then there is this mechanism in the deep pool. I have tried many methods, but I can't enter the underground palace."

According to his description, there is a huge pillar under the deep pool, blocking the entrance to the underground palace.

Ji Changsheng couldn't help but say.

"Isn't this the Dragon-Breaking Stone?"

The Dragon-Breaking Stone is a common anti-theft method used in large tombs. It uses huge stones or stone pillars to block the tomb door.

In the era before the invention of explosives, it was almost impossible to violently dismantle the Dragon-Breaking Stone. The only way to get in was to dig a hole from the side.

Even if there were explosives, they would not dare to use them easily. A small dose would be useless, and a large dose would collapse the entire underground palace!

This mechanism sounds simple, but it is a force that defeats ten skills. It is simple and crude but very effective.

Er Yuehong smiled bitterly.

"Although it is the simplest dragon-breaking stone, this underground palace is built inside the mountain. It is harder to dig a tunnel underwater than to climb to the sky."

"Unless we cut off the waterfall, drain the water from the deep pool, and then dig the base of the dragon-breaking stone like we did when we built the tomb of King Xian, there is no other way!"

After saying that, he added.

"However, Mr. Ji has great means, maybe you have a way to get in."

Ji Changsheng thought about it for a while, and suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help laughing.

"I may know what this mechanism is, Second Master, don't worry, this thing won't be difficult for me."

After sending Er Yuehong back to sleep, Ji Changsheng remembered another thing.

According to Chen Yulou's description, his eyes were not blinded by miasma, but were dug out by a person with long fingers in a strange cave!
