Time goes back to noon today.

On Beiman Mountain.

Led by the Ma family brothers who smelled like corpses, and the native "pangolin" Fan Zhang who smelled like earth.

A group of bandits who came to help, finally opened the first underground palace of the accompanying mausoleum according to the location map of the nine subordinate mausoleums determined by Lang Qi, the "unconventional military counselor" through the terrain.

Among the nine officials of the palace.

[Long History] is in charge of the political litigation of the prince's palace; [trial] is in charge of punishment and imprisonment, bans interrogation and violence, and has no national discipline; [Dianfian] is in charge of the king, concubines, guests, and the food and shame of the sacrifices;

[Fengsi] holds sacrifices to music and dance; [Dianbao] holds the king's treasure talisman; [Jishan] holds the hand of sarcastic etiquette, instructs ancient friendships, and national benevolence and great festivals, to teach kings good deeds;

[Good Doctor] is in charge of medicine; [Ceremony] is in charge of presentation ceremonies; [Gongzheng] is in charge of building and repairing palaces and mansions.

Including the [vassal king] himself, there are ten in total.

They correspond to the ten gods of numerology: Owl God, Bi Jian, Qi Sha, Food God, Wounding Officials, Robbery of Wealth, Partial Wealth, Zhengwei, Zhengguan and Zhengyin respectively.

This accompanying mausoleum is the farthest from the [Owl God's Tomb] and the closest to Daling Village. It represents "positive wealth" among the ten gods of numerology.

After passively learning the secret of "grave digging and stealing luck", they were forced to do their best to survive due to the real and fatal threat from [Owl God's Tomb].

"This 'Owl God Seizes Food Bureau' has nine layers of protection, like nine layers of wings. It houses nine vassal tombs and protects the tomb of King Yili on the Bird's Mouth Slope.

It is truly a treasure that is hard to find in the world.

The Fan family has been robbing tombs for generations, and they have seen very few treasures like this."

In the "Shaking the Dragon Sutra", which is written with the nine-star bad luck, there is a secret: "Looking for a hundred thousand dragons, look at the entangled mountain. Each entanglement is a layer of pass. Honesty and Zhen are already in the greedy wolf, and the princes will live here.

.”

The "dragon vein" of the tomb is actually the main vein of a mountain range, and the mountain range has many branch veins, and these branch veins are called "winding mountains".

The mountains are like the guards of dragon veins. The more mountains there are, the more guards the dragon veins have. The more guards there are, the richer the dragon energy will be.

These mountain guards can also be called wings.

The layers of wings, combined with the bird's mouth slope where the [Owl God's Tomb] is located, are a giant owl that is eyeing the entire Beimang Mountain and the surrounding eight counties!

In conjunction with Yili King Zhou Yi's own fate of "Owl God Seizes Food", he has this terrifying power of devouring living people wantonly for two hundred years.

Bang!

Fan Zhang held a sharp Luoyang shovel and with his inhumanly strong physique, he successfully broke through the robbery cave into the Peiling Underground Palace.

This "pangolin" Fan Zhang was a native from Zhuzhou in the southwest. He practiced a third-rate art of war [Coyotito Art of War], but he was extremely good at digging holes.

It is said that the ancestors of his family dug up the tomb of a warlock by chance in the early years and inherited a magical way.

But he was also cursed that all his descendants would die young, and they would all die of stiffness when they were over thirty years old.

The ancestors of the Fan family had to continue searching the tomb, hoping to find a way to break the curse.

Therefore, Fan Zhang learned about his family's origins, visited tombs and fought upside down, and he was definitely the best at it.

The fact that I came here to help him was not for the gold and silver buried in the tomb, but for Ge Daoye, a [Red Seal Warlock] who came from a sect, to help him get rid of the curse on his body.

"Based on the skills passed down in my family, the robber's hole is probably right above the coffin in the main tomb. The Ma brothers can just do it."

The native master who jumped out of the bandit's cave smiled proudly, took a step back, and gave the entrance of the cave to the Ma family brothers.

The two brothers have wild hair, blue skin and red eyes. They look like Zheng Yong, the Black Armor Guard who explodes with full force.

Just because they practiced an extremely evil [Tao Chuan Art of War] called [Iron Armor Art of War].

It's just that other people's art of war is practiced by people on their own initiative, but this art of war is... practiced.

The person must be placed alive in a willow coffin and buried alive in the ground where the Yin Qi is strong. Only a hole in the bamboo tube is left for breathing, and the person is watered with secret concoction and talisman water every day.

This process takes months or even years.

It is said that there were hundreds of young men who were captured by evil sorcerers to refine [Iron Armored Soldiers], but in the end only these two brothers succeeded.

After these two [Iron Armored Soldiers] became adults, although they could no longer give birth to offspring, they had no pain at all. Their strength was immense, their steel and iron bones were far superior to ordinary warriors.

Moreover, the lifespan has been greatly extended, and the sanity is the same as that of ordinary people, but the reaction is a little dull. If the two of them attack together, they may not be able to meet their opponents in [Taoist].

Of course, those in the know prefer to call them - [Iron Armored Corpses]!

Moreover, these two people seemed to have awakened some kind of powerful magical power. Apart from Wang Yunhu, they were considered to be the number one masters among the bandits.

but.

Before the Ma family brothers could pick up a rune peach wood stake, they went down to the tomb to completely nail the tomb owner who had a special destiny and could benefit from the [Owl God's Food Stealing Bureau].

Woof woof woof...

The two greyhounds that had been brought up the mountain suddenly barked wildly into the dark cave.

At the same time, a strong wind suddenly fell in the mountains, and the dead branches and leaves rolled up, and the birds and beasts in the nearby mountains fled in all directions.

It's like a disaster is coming.

the other side.

Under the leadership of Wang Yunhu, a group of people arrived outside the tomb of King Yili.

"Send people in."

After hearing the order, the two tomb guards lifted a heavy sack and tried their best to control their shivering calves, and walked into the royal tomb, whose door was still open.

He threw it in front of the Xiangdian gate when he entered the courtyard for the second time, and immediately rushed out as if running for his life.

The person in the sack was none other than the third prince Zhou Jingyao who was sent back successfully last night.

Except for the three direct participants Cui Tong, Tao Xianniang, and "Army Military Advisor" Lang Qi, only Wang Yunhu knew the identity of the person in the sack.

Wang Yunhu didn't sleep all night last night to preside over such a big event for the Yi people.

He personally picked up the bandits who returned the sacks.

One of the principles of gangster behavior is to pick on the weak and never provoke anyone you can't afford to offend.

No matter how weak the imperial court is, it is still strong enough to crush any demons and monsters who dare to jump out, let alone a group of bandits and tomb-keepers?

The useless emotion of "fear" is just fleeting. What we have to do now is to seize the time and get the matter done before the Luoyang Palace reacts.

As long as [Owl God's Tomb] eats this bait, even the mage who is good at divination will not be able to calculate Zhou Jingyao's whereabouts, life and death.

It's a pity that no one dares to stay here at night. Even if they stay, they will just be eaten in vain and no news can be sent back.

The "idiot" Wang Yuan who was selected as bait last time has not been able to figure out where he is going or whether he is going to live or die. This time he took a big risk and kidnapped all the concubines of the Luoyang Palace, but he can no longer go on business trips.

Next to him, Tao Xianniang, who came back first without any accident, whispered to him:

"Chief Royal, please rest assured that Mr. Cui is reliable in his work. Although we cannot kill him in advance, we don't have to worry about the 'bait' escaping again this time.

He heard me say that there was an accident last time when I put the 'drug bait', so I made preparations in advance..."

actually.

When he caught Zhou Jingyao, Wang Yuan immediately picked up an awl and performed a prefrontal lobotomy on him. Even if the young prince wakes up, he will only be a real fool.

Wang Yunhu nodded with satisfaction.

"Mr. Cui is bold and careful, he is indeed an old Jianghu!"

Lao Jianghu is not necessarily true. No one knows how to create "idiots" better than Wang Yuan.

suddenly.

A strange wind suddenly blew in the mountains.

Wang Yunhu remained motionless, his head turned 180 degrees, his eyes sharp, looking towards a certain branch in the mountain.

To be more precise, it is the direction where the "Zhengcai" tomb is located.

This person actually has the appearance of "the eagle watching the wolf".

The so-called eagle vision refers to the greed and sharpness of human eyes like an eagle, while the wolf gaze refers to the ability of human eyes to turn back 180 degrees without moving the body.

Tao Xianniang on the side also immediately noticed something was wrong. She raised her eyebrows and used [Supernatural Power Seal Script] to communicate with the ubiquitous vegetation on the mountain and "look" in that direction.

"This is...?"

The countless birds that were frightened into flight affected his mind, and Lang Qi, the "Arrogant Military Advisor", made a hexagram on a whim based on the "Three Generations of Playing Birds Book".

Then he muttered to himself with absent-minded eyes:

"The eagle regards the wolf as evil, and Liu Dai's eyebrows are murderous!

On the eighteenth night of the bloody night, one person went to the tomb and two came back."

...

Until it gets dark.

After successfully completing his mission, Wang Yuan returned to Daling Village after a dusty journey.

Afraid of running into bandits who had been assigned other tasks on the way, he was already exhausted and did not rush back to the "Land of the Dead". Instead, he went directly back to his small courtyard and fell asleep.

"Anyway, Yinri and Yinshi, who have already broken through to the inhuman level and practiced the "Magic Technique of Transforming Tigers", will go back in three days, so there is no rush to go back."

I don't know how much time has passed since I fell asleep.

The night is thick like ink.

The closed door of the small courtyard was suddenly pushed open quietly.

Woo woo woo....
Chapter completed!
