Xia Qi and Yan Shouyi have a relationship with Xia Zhi, so they care about the safety of Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong more than others.
In addition, she truly envied Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong, the divine couple, and her longing for love made her hope that they would be well. She even looked forward to Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong growing old together more than she looked forward to her own Prince Charming.
"Brother Yan, sister-in-law, you must come back safely!" Xia Zhi prayed silently in her heart.
As if her prayers really had an effect, the very rhythmic sound of horse hooves came from outside the door.
The sound of horse hooves is brisk and powerful, just like the sound of victory.
Soon, a tall figure rushed in from outside the courtyard, it was Ta Xue, and on Ta Xue's back were Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong.
"Brother Yan! Sister-in-law!"
Xia Qi was overjoyed and couldn't help shouting.
Tao Huaying stared at Xia Qi a little jealously, why does this girl look more like a maid than me?
Shouldn’t I be the one doing the job of welcoming the young lady and young master?
Tao Huaying, who was born in the feudal era, accepted the identity of a maid more easily than modern women, and she was somewhat happy with it after taking on the identity.
What's wrong with being a maid? What's wrong with following the proud man of heaven? Do you understand that one person can ascend to heaven like a chicken or a dog?
Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong got off their horses and stood outside the door and said: "We have eliminated the four civilian masters, and the inner city is safe now."
Tao Huaying nodded, no wonder she no longer sensed the presence of zombies and evil spirits from just now.
She removed the formation barrier, but Liang Yinqiu and the experts still did not dare to step out of the house.
Yan Shouyi had nothing to say in this regard. It would definitely take time for these old men and women who are engaged in science and academics to accept this.
Fortunately, the experts have all woken up and will not hold back Wang Sihuai and the others.
Wang Sihuai came up to him and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, but my wife suffered some skin trauma." Yan Shouyi looked at Lin Zitong a little distressed.
Wang Sihuai hurriedly asked the team members to get the medical kit, but Yan Shouyi stopped them. Their medical kit could only stop bleeding and reduce inflammation. This level of treatment had no effect on Lin Zitong.
Unlike Yan Shouyi, Luo Ning and the others, Lin Zitong was a serious practitioner of the Eight Sutras. She chanted sutras and meditated a lot on weekdays, and her physique changed as she breathed in and out.
Her physique is countless times stronger than that of ordinary people. Although her recovery ability is not as abnormal as Yan Shouyi's, it is still pretty good.
Coupled with Lao Jin's unique formula, ordinary skin injuries can be healed within three days without leaving even a scar.
Seeing that Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong were fine, Wang Sihuai led them inside again and came to Hu Hai.
Hu Hai possessed Li Yang, his expression was different from the aloof scholar Li Yang had before, and he seemed a bit submissive.
Yan Shouyi tore off the Taoist talisman on Hu Hai, then took out four key fragments and asked, "Is this a key?"
Hu Hai nodded: "Yes, put them together and they can be embedded in the groove of the imperial city gate. Then the imperial city gate will open automatically."
"Well, you can open the door then." Yan Shouyi said casually.
Hu Hai's expression changed: "Why, why?"
"The Imperial Mausoleum is your home, and you are familiar with the roads. Of course, you, the master, will open the door. Is it possible for us outsiders to come in?" Yan Shouyi said matter-of-factly, "We are very well-behaved."
Hu Hai cursed in his heart: You bandits and untouchables have broken into the imperial mausoleum, why do you expect to follow the rules?
Seeing the reluctant expression on Hu Hai's face, Yan Shouyi raised the corner of his mouth and asked, "Why, you don't want to?"
Hu Hai swallowed and thought about how to get out of this job.
However, the more Hu Hai hesitated and remained silent, the more Yan Shouyi suspected that there was something wrong with the city gate.
So he simply grabbed Hu Hai's wrist, carried him out, and said: "That's it, let's open the city gate without further delay!"
Hu Hai was so frightened that he struggled wildly: "I won't go! If you want to go, you can go by yourself!"
"Why don't you go?" Yan Shouyi asked.
Hu Hai blurted out: "There is danger in the imperial city!"
As soon as Yan Shou fell silent, Hu Hai also realized that he had spilled the beans. He subconsciously covered his mouth, but then put his hands down again.
Damn it!
There are so many untouchable tricks in later generations!
Lin Zitong asked in a cold voice: "What other traps are there in the imperial city?"
The tomb of Qin Shihuang must be more dangerous each floor. This is everyone's consensus.
So Lin Zitong didn't think there was any surprise, but if he could get 20/30 out of 10 from Hu Hai, a lot of danger would be reduced by then.
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Hu Hai sighed:
"You are descendants of later generations, have you ever heard of Afang Nu?"
"Afang girl?"
Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong looked at each other. He originally wanted to explain, but considering that there were more professionals present, he asked Liang Yinqiu to come and clear up the confusion.
Liang Yinqiu's eyes lit up when she heard the word "A Fang Nu". She hurried in and asked Hu Hai: "A Fang Nu really exists?"
Hu Hai nodded, wondering in his heart, did A Fang Nu not exist in the records of later generations?
After Liang Yinqiu explained it, everyone had a preliminary understanding of this Afang girl.
According to folklore, King Yingzheng of Qin fell in love with a Handan woman while living in Handan City when he was a child. This woman was Afang Nu.
Afang Nu is not a wealthy lady from a wealthy family, she is just an ordinary herb collector.
After Emperor Qin unified the world, he wanted to make her his queen, but he was opposed by the ministers and maids because she was a woman from the Zhao Kingdom and was born poor.
Afang Nu committed suicide in order not to embarrass Ying Zheng.
In order to commemorate the woman he loved deeply, Emperor Qin built the Afang Palace.
Yes, Afang Palace was built for Afang Nu, but it was a pity that it was burned down by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.
Xia Qi commented: "If there was a white moonlight in ancient times, Afang Nu should be Qin Shihuang's white moonlight."
The emotions in childhood are the purest. Even if he is as cruel as Qin Shihuang, there is still a white moonlight in his heart.
But, what does the danger of the imperial city have to do with this Afang girl?
Everyone's eyes focused on Hu Hai again.
The eighteenth son of Qin Shihuang didn’t mind being stared at by so many people. He said:
"After the death of Afangnu, my father could not let go or accept it, so he ordered Xu Fu to find a way to bring Afangnu back to life."
This Xu Fu was a famous alchemist in the Qin Dynasty. According to legend, he was a close disciple of Mr. Guiguzi. He was highly regarded by Qin Shihuang. Later, Qin Shihuang even sent him to lead three thousand boys and girls eastward to seek the elixir of immortality on the legendary Penglai Island.
.
However, if Xu Fu really had the ability to bring the dead back to life, there would be no need to go out and search for the elixir of immortality.
So Yan Shouyi could almost guess what happened to this Afang girl later on.
