"There are no good products here. Maybe you will find something unexpected next." Yang Di said, touching his chin.
"Why do I feel that the purpose of our trip has changed a bit? It's not like helping the female ghost understand her long-cherished wish, but more like an adventure to hunt for treasure." Yu You said very depressed.
"This is fun." Ning Yunzhu said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, the treasure hunting adventure is the most meaningful!" Ao Xi and the others did not seem to be bound by meaningless morals.
"Don't take it seriously. The Xiwang tribe should be inextricably linked to the monastic world. From this level, it has been separated from scientific and technological civilization." Yang Di smiled and enlightened the girl, not wanting her to do anything again at this time.
The sense of justice is overwhelming.
"How can I be so rigid..." Yu You pouted, dissatisfied with the way everyone looked at the defender.
It is true that she has always liked to fight against injustices since she was a child, but this is just to protect citizens and punish villains. She will not care about this kind of thing now, she was just complaining.
After searching, everyone found that except for fragments of artifacts and a few skeletons, there was nothing worth paying attention to in the stone room, so they immediately moved forward again.
Next, more and more stone chambers with things like that appeared.
But without exception, most of the things inside were rotten and tattered. After searching for a long time, Yang Di and the others still found nothing.
However, it was not without discovery. Based on what they saw and heard just now, Yang Di and everyone guessed that the former Xiwang tribe must have suffered some kind of disaster and retreated to this underground ancient city.
Unfortunately, the catastrophe did not seem to be over. The Xiwang tribe members who had retreated to the underground ancient city still died in this ancient city.
There were no signs of fighting in the stone chambers we passed just now, so the death process of the Xiwang tribe members must have gone through a period of time.
What makes everyone wonder is that since they still suffered misfortune after retreating, why did the people of the Xiwang tribe not try to escape and use two powerful yellow talismans to seal the entrance.
Do they just want to die? Or is there no hope at all?
Too many secrets have been buried in the quicksands of history. Although this site has been rediscovered, there are still many mysteries that trouble Yang Di and the others.
"Xuan Ya, Mo Mo, have you found any useful information?" Yang Di entered the headset band and asked about the situation on the RV outside.
"Alas, it seems that this past period was deliberately erased by a powerful person. Basically, all official historical materials have no records about the Xiwang Tribe."
Li Xuanya sighed, and then changed the topic: "But there is a very interesting talk in the unofficial history. You can listen to it."
"Oh?" Yang Di perked up his ears.
Everyone around them also focused their attention on their headsets, wanting to hear Xuanya and the others' search results.
"There is an unofficial history that records allusions related to the Xiwang tribe. According to legend, in 743 AD, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Longji, once married a princess named Wanxi to the then generation of Xiwang.
The Wang tribe also mysteriously disappeared in the next six months."
Ning Mo smiled and told everyone on the headset channel that these were just unofficial histories and there was no definite evidence.
Originally it could only be used for entertainment and should not be taken seriously, but after discussing it, she and Xuanya both felt that it might be helpful to Yang Di and the others.
"Princess Wanxi? Was there such a person in the Tang Dynasty?" Yang Di asked doubtfully.
"Of course there is no official history. Unofficial history says that she was the daughter of Princess Taiping and her male favorite. Later, after Princess Taiping died, she was secretly adopted by Li Longji. When she was seventeen, Li Longji used a guise to
Canonize her as Princess Wanxi!" Li Xuanya muttered according to the information he collected.
"Wow! What a big gossip!"
Yang Di was a little uneasy. Whether this kind of thing was true or false, it was definitely impossible to verify. However, given their current situation, it seemed to be extremely possible.
Because if the number is right, judging from the performance of the female ghost and the age when she died, it seems that she is very similar to the "Princess Wanxi" who has been forgotten by history!
What happened thousands of years ago? If there really was a Princess Wanxi who was given a marriage to the Xiwang of that generation, was it her appearance that caused the Xiwang tribe to disappear?
If this is really the case, then why did Tang Xuanzong Li Longji do this?
"It seems very possible. To be able to erase the traces of a period of history so thoroughly, in ancient times, basically only emperors could do it!" Ning Yunzhu followed Yang Di's example and touched her chin to analyze.
"It's a pity that this female ghost is in a very wrong state, otherwise all the speculations could be easily confirmed." Yu You said with some regret, and was also immersed in the role.
"Let's continue to look deep into the ancient city. Maybe there will be answers." Yang Di sighed. The more he explored this matter, the more complicated and confusing it became.
What kind of drastic changes happened to the Xiwang tribe thousands of years ago, which caused a female ghost to linger by Wangyue Lake forever with her obsession, and was regarded as a female monster by modern people.
This is really mysterious.
Along the way, Yang Di and the others saw more bones. In some huge stone chambers, the ground was actually full of remains, and no less than a hundred people were buried there.
The former Xiwang tribe seemed to be very prosperous even if they retreated to this ancient underground city. It is really sad that so many people died due to accidents.
"So cruel!" Yu You's eyes were a little red. Yang Di said that those people died abnormally, and the death process was usually slow and torturous.
That scene, coupled with these words, was really unbearable for a girl to watch.
Even the crazy girl's mood became quite gloomy. The final destination of this ancient and mysterious tribe really made people want to cry.
"At least tens of thousands of people died slowly in the final disaster. Didn't they ever think of giving it a try and leaving this ancient city?" Zong Xun sighed as he passed through countless stone chambers.
"Why do I feel that it's not that they don't want to leave, but that they are locked up in this ancient underground city by evil people..." Ao Xi spoke in a low voice. The big man did not dare to speak too loudly, for fear that the crazy girl would think he was making sarcastic remarks.
"It's possible." Yang Di and Ye Shenyu, who witnessed all this through the DV signal, both judged this.
About half an hour later, everyone finally arrived at the end of the street. In front of them were tall steps. On top of the steps, there seemed to be an ancient temple.
The plaque on the main entrance has decayed and is crumbling under the eaves. However, the two large gilt characters on the plaque are still very eye-catching.
The royal palace!
These two big characters have an inexplicable majestic charm. Even though they have been dusted for thousands of years, they still exude a formidable momentum.
Liu Xing, Ao Xi and the others didn't notice that inexplicable feeling, but Yang Di and Zong Xun felt it deeply.
"What a domineering word!" Even the little fox and the crazy girl said this with emotion, with serious expressions on their faces.
"These two big characters must have been written by extremely powerful monks thousands of years ago with the charm of Taoism, otherwise they would not be so majestic!" Zong Xun guessed.
"Yeah." Yang Di agreed.
Then they slowly climbed up the steps and walked towards the main entrance of the palace.
Along the way, we didn't encounter many dangers, and there weren't even any traps.
At first, Yang Di and the others were very surprised, but later, they felt a little relieved. It seemed that this was not a mausoleum, but the last hiding place of the Xiwang tribe.
