Chapter 367: The Conspiracy Behind the Bronze God Tree
"Three things recorded in "Hemu Ji"."
"The first item is Emperor Xiaowen, the great ancestor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, in the 13th year of Taihe."
"While mining in Taibai Mountain, I found a bronze tree and dug deep, but I couldn't find the bottom."
"The Mute Army received a secret order and came to Taibai Mountain to investigate the authenticity of the matter."
"As a result, a whole group of mute soldiers disappeared mysteriously and never came back. They suspected that they might have been killed by the soldiers guarding the tomb."
"Four months later, the second mute army came to Taibai Mountain again and discovered the bronze tree. Then, leading three thousand death row prisoners, they took over the place and continued digging."
"The second incident happened to Emperor Xiaowen, the great ancestor of the Northern Wei Dynasty. In the spring of the 18th year of Taihe, the mute army still did not dig to the bottom of the tree, but dug out a stone box with dragon patterns."
"In this dragon-patterned stone box, I could faintly feel that there was something hidden inside, but there was no gap. The mute army tried every means but could not open the box, so they sent the box to the palace."
"The third thing is that at the end of the 18th year of Taihe, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the emperor discussed rewards for meritorious deeds. The owner of Hemuji got drunk with some friends and made a bet to be afraid of the bronze tree. As for the result, Hemuji
There are also records in the collection. However, the words are very strange. It is impossible to figure out which race's words it is, let alone its specific meaning."
"However, just because the Mute Army has explored the bronze tree, it was mentioned above that there is an unfinished plank road around the bronze tree that you can climb to!"
"So, we don't have to climb the tree at all! We just need to find the plank road!"
Everyone made up their minds and searched around, and soon found the plank road recorded in "The Collection of River Trees", and the chichis had no intention of descending from the bronze tree.
"Lao Hu, you guys go up there. There might be danger up there. I'm not very capable, so I'm afraid I'll only cause trouble for you if I go up there." Lao Chi looked at Lao Hu and said with a smile.
"Oh, Old Itch, I didn't expect you to have good eyesight. Hahaha, don't tell me, Fatty, I kind of like you." The fat man grinned.
He knows his own territory and stays here honestly. He is very self-aware.
"I'll stay here with him too."
Master Liang pondered for a moment and chose to stay.
"I'll be searching around for a while. Maybe there are other underworld weapons. If I take them back, I can buy some money. It's not a wasted trip!"
"also."
Lao Hu nodded and agreed.
So, Lin Yi, Lao Hu, Fatty, and Little Brother set foot on the plank road.
After the four people walked away.
Master Liang and Lao Itchi looked at each other, with an evil smile on their lips.
"The thing is done, should we go back and resume our lives?"
"Don't worry, we still have to see if they can survive, and...whether there has really been a change in him!"
"Yes. However, our plan this time can be said to be very perfect. Where did you find that young man? There are some differences. I hope it will not cause trouble to our plan."
"What kind of trouble could there be? In this place, let alone that young man, even if the ancestor comes, he will be affected! Relax! Maybe, he is the key person that the ancestor is looking for!"
"Hehe, if that's really the case, we will have made a great contribution!"
…
Lin Yi walked onto the plank road and remained calm.
It seemed normal, but a doubt flashed through my mind.
Aren't these two weaklings, Lao Itch and Master Liang, afraid of the Chi Gu running down from above and parasitizing them?
Those Chi Gu were able to bring Boss Wang from the underground river.
Also, Master Liang risked his life and came from the underground river, but he was unwilling to go up to the bronze sacred tree to take a look?
This is also inconsistent with common sense.
Even if Master Liang is weak and a nerd, he still cares about climbing the plank road when the underground river has jumped?
There is definitely something wrong with these two people!
On the way, Lin Yi also asked the younger brother how he met Master Liang.
It’s almost the same as what Master Liang said.
The game between the five of them was all made possible by Master Liang!
Uncle Tai and my brother are tomb robbers.
Boss Wang is responsible for antique appraisal.
Boss Li has inherited Hemuji from his ancestors!
Now, except for my brother and Master Liang, the other three are all dead!
The little brother is very strong and there is no problem. This is normal.
Master Liang can be said to be the weakest among the five. His ability to survive to this day is probably not just due to good luck.
Ji Yi also asked about the encounter and agreement between Lao Hu and Lao Itch.
Speaking of which, Lao Hu also had some doubts in his heart.
He and Lao Itchi haven't seen each other for five or six years.
This meeting seems to be destined, it seems very accidental, it always feels like it is a coincidence!
He has never seen Lao Itch's family or companions. He has only seen Lao Itch's old cousin's grave, and knows nothing else.
"Old Lin, do you suspect that Lao Itch deliberately led us here?" Lao Hu was startled and asked.
"Ninety percent! However, as for his real purpose, I can't say yet." Ji Yi nodded.
In The Stealing Biography, Xie Ziyang introduces Wu Xie to the novel in order to resurrect his mother.
As for now.
This old itch seems to have other plans.
After all, I didn’t hear Lao Hu mention the fact that Lao Itch’s mother passed away due to illness.
"Old Lin, what should we do now? Go down? Or go up?" Lao Hu frowned slightly, feeling a little depressed.
"Go up, it's nothing to worry about."
Along the way, Ji Yi found no signs of disguise or plastic surgery.
Either this person is the real Lao Itch, or this person is similar to the real Lao Itch, similar to Jie Lianhuan and Wu Sansheng. They both have very similar appearances, and even Lao Hu can't tell them apart clearly.
After the four people walked up the plank road, they were surprised to find that many of the plank roads were pierced by branches of bronze trees!
"Oh my God, will this bronze tree really grow if I get it?"
The fat man was full of questions.
When the plank road was first built, bronze trees were deliberately avoided.
But after an unknown number of years, the branches of the bronze tree have penetrated deeply into the plank road.
On the trunk of the bronze tree, there were still a large number of Chi Gus. When the people were moving, the Chi Gus all looked at them, but did not attack them.
It seems that they have a mysterious fear of the plank road in their hearts.
It can be seen from this that the plank road was probably not built by the Mute Army back then. It was most likely built by the people of the She Kingdom. It is also possible that the plank road existed when the bronze tree was first formed.
The four of them moved very quickly, and soon they arrived at the top of the Bronze Sacred Tree.
That is a huge altar!
Around the altar, there are four lifelike stone statues.
And in the middle of the stone statue, there is an exquisite sarcophagus!
