In the underground palace, there was a long talk with Lei Ting, and Bai Junhe and the others roughly figured out Mu Yan's calculations. Although many links in it were calculated, they were still traceable.Unlike trial and conviction, whether on the battlefield or in court, no one can wait until all the evidence is conclusive before taking action. This is exactly where the risk lies.

"Xiyu, you have been looking at the murals around you just now, but what do you see?"

The ground in the underground palace is cool, and it is easy to get cold after sitting for a long time. Bo Junhe pulled Fu Donglou to stand up, and looked up at the murals around him.

"These murals seem to be about Qin's previous wars starting from Shang Yang's reform to strengthen the country." Fu Donglou pointed to the surrounding images and walked down a few steps, "I think the person who built this underground palace might want to show that Qin destroyed the six kingdoms the process of."

"What is the specific shape of this underground palace, whether there are other exits, and where the exit is, I am still not sure. Why don't we go down and look for it. If there are wounded people who are inconvenient to move, just a few of us can go there. When we find it, we will come back to pick it up." They are."

"It's safer to act together." Linghu Chun's expression was not very good, "The future is uncertain. If we go all the way and cannot turn back, it would be dangerous to leave the wounded here."

Fu Donglou caught a glimpse of Linghu Chun's expression, and hesitated, "You... Could it be that you found any information about this place from the classics? Is there an agency in front or something?"

It's not like I haven't seen mechanisms like quicksand crossbows in ancient tombs at the archaeological site before, but most of those mechanisms have decayed over time and can't really work.There was no sign of traps in the corridor here, so Fu Donglou felt that this underground palace was not very dangerous. Linghu Chun said that he had no idea.

Linghu Chun relaxed a bit: "How can there be any records in the ancient books in the underground palace? I just don't like this feeling." The tombs of the emperors in the underground palace where treasures are hidden are all taboo things in history books, so how can there be detailed records.

Bo Junhe raised his eyebrows and agreed, "I also think it's better to act together."

Fu Donglou laughed: "You guys just like the feeling that everything is in your own hands, and once there is something that is not within your calculations, you will feel uncomfortable. Do you think...um...fear stems from the unknown?"

"Probably." Bo Jun and smiled.

Packed up his luggage and called people to set off. Lei Ting naturally walked ahead and opened the way, regardless of his physical exertion and skill.Seeing that the Xianbei warrior who was knocked out by Thunder was still a little dizzy even though he was awake, Fu Donglou secretly laughed that Thunder's attack was hard enough.

As expected by Fu Donglou, the murals on both sides of the corridor depict the Qin State's road to power. No ear chambers were found.

Bo Jun and Hu walked beside Fu Donglou, and suddenly said: "Xiyu, it is said that there is a treasure hidden in the Chuanguo Yuxi. In addition to gold and jade, there are countless ancient books. Among those books are not only those who cultivated immortals in the Yanhuang period. The art of becoming a god, as well as the casting method of various magical weapons. In your opinion, is the rumor of this treasure reliable?"

"Why, there is such a legend circulating in Da Chu?" Before Fu Donglou could answer, Linghu Chun answered first.

"You are really fans of the authorities." Fu Donglou couldn't help laughing at the two of them, "You are busy with military and state affairs all day long, worrying about military expenses and new weapons every day. Naturally, you are willing to believe such rumors, but in my opinion, gold Reliable, those classics are pure nonsense."

"Just imagine, if there are these treasures, who is hiding them? Qin Shihuang? I have never heard of what kind of magic weapon Qin Shihuang used to destroy the six kingdoms."

"Furthermore, Qin Shihuang's pursuit of longevity is not well known to the world. If he can find the cultivation method that records the cultivation of immortality and godhood, he should have practiced himself to ascend to immortality. Don't tell me that there is no Buried Qin Shihuang, nonsense."

Bo Jun and Naturally don't believe there is any way to live forever: "People in the world say that treasures are exaggerated. Although there are not those magical things, gold and silver treasures are still possible."

"When you were packing up your things just now, I checked in the ear room, and things were indeed stored here. There are marks left by the boxes placed on the bluestone slabs, and you can't see it unless you look carefully. I don't know what is stored in the boxes. What, but it must have existed here for a long time. Maybe there are gold, silver and jewels, but they were taken away a long time ago."

What Fu Donglou didn't even understand was what to do with the underground palace in this ruined place, or the underground palace where the Chuanguo Yuxi was kept, but it doesn't make much sense to care about these right now, and maybe you can find the answer by looking along the murals on both sides.

"My lord, according to my subordinates, there may really be no traps here." Yu Heng interrupted while no one was talking, "My subordinates have been to places densely populated by institutions. Walking here, subordinates I don't see any danger."

Yu Heng paused while speaking, and muttered: "Unless the guards here are those Yin soldiers..."

Everyone stopped in their tracks, and there was a dead silence in the underground palace for a moment, and Yu Heng trembled as if there was really a dark wind blowing.

"Haha, I'm dying of laughter, haha!" Fu Donglou burst into laughter, and when he saw Bai Junhe and Linghu Chun's faces were so ugly, he laughed even more, "Yin soldiers, you are so talented! Killing people on the battlefield I'm not afraid, but I'm afraid of Yin soldiers!"

"Your Highness, please keep your voice down. This mountain is a famous ghost mountain. Someone has really seen Yin soldiers. Otherwise, why is there no one in this place?" Yu Heng was even more embarrassed. He didn't want to say it originally, but he was a scout He has the responsibility of surveying the road conditions. He doesn't believe that there are no traps in this treasure place, so he can only think about the Yin soldiers.

Fu Donglou snapped his fingers in front of Linghu Chun, "Do you still remember when I told you that there are many magnets on the other side of the mountain?"

Linghu Chun coughed, straightened his face and said, "Remember, what does this have to do with Yin soldiers."

Fu Donglou didn't answer directly, but asked Bo Junhe again: "Is there a lot of thunderstorms on this mountain?"

When Bai Junhe came here, he checked the county chronicles around this mountain, and it was indeed thundery and rainy here, so he nodded and said, "Yes."

"That's right. The thunderstorm and the magnet will have a strange effect, that is, to record the images of what happened around them."

Fu Donglou didn't go into details, but only explained in words that everyone could understand: "It takes a lot of manpower to excavate the underground palace and move things. Suppose one day a group of soldiers carried gold and silver treasures to the ear room, and suddenly it rained heavily. There was thunder and lightning, and the sight of soldiers passing those lodestones could have been recorded."

"When there is another cloudy and rainy day, and there is another thunder and lightning, the interaction between the magnet and the lightning may release the scene recorded at the beginning. This is probably the dark soldier seen by the people."

Fu Donglou is not a pure atheist, and ghosts and gods are credible depending on the occasion. Some things can be clearly explained by science, so why bother to scare yourself.Not to mention that he has been to many excavation sites of ancient tombs, but he has never seen a "living ghost".

After some explanation, Linghu Chun was at a loss, and Bai Junhe also half understood, not to mention the others.Bo Junhe naturally didn't find it strange to know the details of Fu Donglou, but Linghu Chun's eyes were somewhat unclear.

Squeezing Fu Donglou's shoulder, Bo Junhe hurriedly changed the subject and pointed to an ear chamber in front of him, "I ran into the ear chamber again after walking for so long."

Hearing this, Lei Ting went over to investigate first and replied: "These two ear chambers are larger than the one just now, and the rest are normal."

Fu Donglou studied the murals on both sides and guessed: "The murals here are supposed to be about the merger of Qin and Han. South Korea was the first country among the six countries to be destroyed by Qin. Maybe we will see it when we continue walking." It is the paintings of Qin destroying Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan, and Qi."

With a flash of inspiration, Fu Donglou's eyes lit up: "The mural in front of the ear room we rested on is the rise of Qin and the battle against Hexi. The ear room is slightly smaller. If there is any treasure that is really stored, it should be the family wealth handed down by the ancestor of Qin. Qin Guo merged with Han, and the ear chamber became larger, and it is likely that the treasures looted from South Korea were stored."

"If there was an ear chamber for every country that was destroyed, would the treasures looted by those countries be stored in those ear chambers? In this way, this underground palace records the history of Qin's family fortune. , it must be at the end of the corridor. What do you think?"

"Maybe, but if that's the case, there should be more defenses here." Linghu Chun was puzzled.

"No, maybe this is a secret treasury, or it's for geomantic considerations to store treasures to suppress dragon veins and the like. Is it true that your Yan Kingdom's treasury is full of crossbow arrows and poison gas? Then you take care of the treasury of the silver treasury. Doesn’t every official have to have extraordinary skills.” This is what Fu Donglou thought of. There are many similar legends in literary works of unofficial history, but there is no record in the official history, and it cannot be verified from an academic point of view.

Linghu Chun was taken aback for a moment, it really made sense.

"At the beginning, Qin Shihuang still wanted the descendants of the country for thousands of years, and saved some private money for his descendants. How did he know that the third generation of the Qin Dynasty would die, so it made sense not to pretend to be a mechanism."

Since there was no abnormality in the ear chamber, everyone continued to move forward.As Fu Donglou said, the content on the mural is that the Qin State destroyed the six countries one by one, and every time a country was destroyed, there was an ear room, large or small, with traces of things stored there.Until Qin Huang ruled the world, the corridor came to an end, and a simple stone gate blocked the way.

"Xi Yu is really good at predicting things, your guess should be right."

Bo Junhe was amazed by Fu Donglou's ability.It seemed to others that Fu Donglou was just making a random guess, but if he didn't have a solid foundation and extensive knowledge, how could he get it right?

There are people from Beiyan here, and Bai Junhe even intends to deify Fu Donglou.It is extremely beneficial to Da Chu to leave Linghu Chun and his warriors with the impression that "Fu Donglou's ability is unpredictable".After going out, let Xiaozuo Yu Beiyan spread some rumors to raise Fu Donglou. When Chuyan fights in the future, he may reap unexpected results.

Of course, Lord Rui will never give Bei Yan a chance to hurt his wife again.

Fu Donglou couldn't get out of Bo Jun and so many Wanwan's thoughts. He carefully examined the murals on both sides of the corridor, studied the stone gate, and rested his chin in meditation.

"It seems that I was right. Qin Shihuang believed that this mountain is where the dragon veins are located, and staying here will make the Qin Dynasty prosperous, so he built such an underground palace to store jewels. The stone room in front should be after the unification of the Qin Dynasty. The national treasure that Qin Shihuang preserved for his descendants should have been emptied, too."

The mural in front of Fu Donglou depicts exactly what he just said.The mural is grand and open, with a giant dragon hovering in the clouds and above a verdant mountain.The mountain in the painting should be the one in front of my eyes.

"Do you see that the group of soldiers escorted in the painting are not moving things here one by one?" Fu Donglou smiled openly, "It's ridiculous that Qin Shihuang spent so much time and effort but failed to get the Great Qin Wandai."

Linghu Chun frowned, and his tone showed worry: "Everything in the front ear room has been emptied, can the Chuan Guo Yuxi exist here?"

"Maybe."

“How come you see?”

"In the beginning, this was not a place to store jade seals, but there are few people here, and the treasures in the underground palace have long since disappeared. There must be fewer people who want to think about this underground palace." Fu Donglou pointed to Bai Jun He and Linghu Chun, "If someone hadn't reported the letter, would you have thought that the jade seal was hidden in such a ghostly place? If it is false, it is true, and if it is true, it is false. This principle is easy to understand."

"Besides, the jade seal was not kept here after the Qin Dynasty. It may be that Tang Taizong got the jade seal from the returned Empress Xiao before hiding it here. There has been a change in the Xuanwu Gate. I think Taizong may not put such an important one. If the things are kept in the palace, who knows if there will be rebels who will snatch the jade seal one day."

"I really can't believe that you don't know anything about Yuxi." Linghu Chun didn't know whether to say that Fu Donglou was a good learner or a fool, or he just pretended not to know, "The secret files of the Tang Palace that I saw The records are similar to what you said. Taizong hid the jade seal here, and only the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, including Wu Zetian, knew the secret of the jade seal, and even the craftsmen who repaired it were silenced afterwards."

Bo Junhe tapped on the mural on the wall, "If you hide something, you don't need to repaint the mural. At most, you need to repair the mechanism of opening the door, including adding lamp oil. When was this underground palace built?"

"I can't figure it out either. The architectural style is undoubtedly from the Qin and Han Dynasties. I thought these murals were also handed down from the Qin Dynasty, but after reading all the way, I found that some of the murals were made by the Qin Dynasty. It was painted by modern people imitating the style of the pre-Qin and Han Dynasties, and the subtleties show their flaws, such as the proportion of the mountains and rivers and the characters, the style of the painting... If you talk too much, you probably won’t understand it.”

Fu Donglou rubbed along the lines of the mural, "I don't understand why someone should sing praises for the Qin Dynasty, but this mural is really a treasure."

The jade pendant on his wrist slid out with the movement, reminding Fu Donglou that he still had work to do.

The stone gate in front of you is the same as the one outside, with a small turntable engraved with a horse pattern.No longer mentioning the mural, Fu Donglou buckled the jade pendant on the turntable and turned it clockwise. Sure enough, there was the sound of the mechanism opening, and the stone door gradually opened.

The stone room behind the stone gate was very large, and there was still a groove on the wall where lamp oil was stored. Lei Ting lit the lamp oil as before, and everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by a stone platform in the center of the stone room.

The stone platform is round and as high as half a person. The base is very large and the countertop for holding things is thick but small.On the entire stone platform are exquisite stone carvings of the rising dragon and piercing the clouds, and a stone box with the same pattern is placed on the platform.

Lei Ting, Yu Heng, and a Xianbei warrior who might also be a scout came forward to test it carefully, and made sure that the surroundings of the stone platform were safe before letting their respective masters approach.

Although they were very excited, Bo Jun and Linghu Chunfu Donglou's movements were still reserved, and neither of them rushed forward without losing their composure.

In order to prevent any mechanism on the stone box, it was Lei Ting who opened the stone box. Immediately afterwards, everyone was shocked by the pure white jade seal in the stone box.The supremacy of imperial power coming from all directions in Vega is conveyed through this cold jade, making people want to kneel down and worship.

Bai Junhe and Linghuchun looked at each other, but neither of them stepped forward, but let Fu Donglou go up to make an appraisal first, but behind the scenes, they pulled away.

Fu Donglou went up to pick up the jade seal and looked at it for a moment, his expression suddenly changed: "This jade seal is fake."

"What?!" Linghu Chun couldn't believe it.

Along the way, Fu Donglou repeatedly made shocking remarks, and every time he hit the mark, Linghu Chun couldn't take his words lightly, but it's not trivial to pass on the authenticity of the national jade seal, so it's natural to ask what happened.

"Why are you so sure?"

Bai Junhe was also amazed, Linghu Chun saw this completely unfaltering expression, and his vigilance relaxed a bit.

"The jade used in this jade seal is the highest-quality suet white jade in jade, which is flawless and delicate to the touch; the corner of the jade seal is inlaid with gold, which is exactly in response to Wang Mang's saying that the empress Xiaoyuan usurped power and threw the jade seal angrily; the dragon button carving on the top of the jade seal The workmanship is extraordinary and lifelike, which is beyond the reach of ordinary craftsmen. All these make this jade seal look very real. But it is just like it."

The corners of Fu Donglou's lips raised slightly, his smile was full of determination and confidence.

"I don't know if you have seen Li Si's stone-carved works "Yashan Carved Stone" and "Langya Carved Stone". If you have attainments in calligraphy and painting, and have studied Li Si's characters, you should be able to see that it is "ordered by" The eight characters "Heaven, Shou, Yongchang" are definitely not Li Si's own handwriting."

Fu Donglou threw the jade seal directly to Linghu Chun as he said that, this throw shocked everyone, and their hearts skipped a beat.

"If you like it, take it. Go back to Beiyan and find a calligraphy and painting for you to appraise for you. I hope Shi Chaoyi will not be more suspicious of you when he hears that you found a fake jade seal. You'd better think about where the real jade seal is. , don’t let Shi Chaoyi think that you have hidden the real jade seal.”

After Fu Donglou finished speaking, he didn't even look at Linghu Chun anymore, but walked directly to the entrance of the corridor extending from the back of the stone room.

"Xiyu... are you really sure..." Bo Junhe naturally wouldn't be suspicious of Fu Donglou, but this matter is too big, and Fu Donglou handled it too hastily, even if the jade seal is fake. Just give it to Linghu Chun.

"Zhuo Cheng, I like to collect antiques. I have seen many fakes since I was a child, and I know many tragic stories of people losing their fortunes because of buying fakes. I hate fakes more than any of you." Fu Donglou's expression was unprecedented. Cold and decisive, completely different from his usual appearance.

"Don't mention that thing to me again." Fu Donglou turned to Linghu Chun and said, "If you are willing to believe me, you can smash this thing in front of everyone."

"You," Fu Donglou pointed to Commander Hu Chun and Xia Bai Junhe, "and you, you two should know better than me what the consequences of taking a fake jade seal out will be."

"I have only practiced my eyesight for so many years and I can tell that this thing is fake, not to mention those gold and stone collectors. No matter who you are trying to take this out and make it fake, it will not work. I am afraid that in the future when the real jade seal appears in the world, you will be covered in blood. I can't even speak clearly."

If there is no Yuxi, the "cooperation" between Linghu Chun and Bai Junhe can be simplified a lot.As for fighting on the front line, it is not difficult to have a no-lose or no-win ending.

"Linghu Zhuguo, this king trusts Xiyu as he trusts himself. If this king says to leave the fake jade seal here, you must not be at ease. Why don't we just destroy this jade seal here?"

Bai Junhe's series of reactions were flawless, but Linghu Chun couldn't just let this jade seal go, even if it might be a fake.

"Zhuo Cheng, tell him to take Yuxi back to Beiyan. If he really dares to take this thing seriously, we will expose the matter of the underground palace. I don't believe that Beiyan doesn't even have eyesight. "Fu Donglou was very straightforward, leaving no room for doubt.

"There is wind here, so it should lead to the outside." Not wanting to look at the jade seal anymore, Fu Donglou turned his head to look at the back of the corridor, "The corridor turns downwards, I guess we should reach the foot of the mountain when we go out from here. Just enough to avoid the group of men in black."

"Linghu Zhuguo, if the two of us fight here, it will be very difficult to keep the jade seal intact. This king trusts Xiyu and doesn't think this jade seal is real, but I have to prevent Linghu Zhuguo from taking this Yuxi is making a fuss. Linghu Zhuguo should destroy Yuxi here, no matter how we are now partners, Linghu Zhuguo must show some sincerity."

Before Bai Junhe could finish speaking, Qixing opened his posture, and Bai Junhe even protected Fu Donglou behind him.

Seeing this, the Xianbei warriors drew their knives out of their sheaths, but Linghu Chun stopped them with a wave of his hand.

"King Rui, Linghu Chun is willing to exchange Chang'an for this jade seal. Regardless of whether the jade seal is true or not, Linghu Chun will bear the consequences alone. I don't know if King Rui is willing to form an alliance with me here." Linghu Chun followed the example of the Han people. A salute, with a solemn and solemn expression.

Bai Junhe raised his eyebrows: "It seems that Linghu Zhuguo believes that this jade seal is real? Chang'an is not an ordinary city. Linghu Zhuguo is really willing to gamble with Chang'an?"

"Fu Donglou has too many ghosts, I can't just believe that this jade seal is fake, maybe he's cheating on me."

Linghu Chun glanced at Fu Donglou: "If the jade seal is real, it is certainly worth changing a Chang'an city for the national jade seal. Even if the jade seal is fake, it doesn't matter. I can say that Nanfeng tricked me into looking for the jade seal. Chang'an I have nothing to do with losing it. Whether King Rui can defend Chang'an depends on King Rui's ability."

"Linghu Zhuguo really has a good plan."

Such a deal was beyond Fu Donglou's expectations, "Linghu Chun, you are not crazy, this jade seal is really a fake."

Giving Fu Donglou a comforting look, Bo Junhe stretched out his palm, "I promise you, you might as well high-five as an oath, first get rid of the wood inflammation and then fight for the world."

With a crisp sound, Linghu Chun and Bo Jun held hands together, "I was looking forward to the day of the decisive battle with the prince."

"Stupid, stupid, Linghu Chun's brain must have been kicked by a donkey." Fu Donglou muttered and waved at Lei Ting, "Let's go, ignore that idiot."

The covenant was established, and the tense atmosphere among the group finally dissipated.After Linghu Chun packed the jade seal carefully, everyone walked down the corridor.

In the second half, there are no murals, and there is no mechanism, so the walk is surprisingly smooth.

Xu Shi was physically exhausted after walking for too long, and Fu Donglou gradually felt that his eyes were dark and his feet were weak, and the wounded became weaker and weaker.Gritting his teeth, Fu Donglou was supported by Bo Junhe and walked for a while, and finally saw a stone door with a hole in the upper right, through which some vines and leaves could be vaguely seen.

No wonder there is wind in the underground palace, it should be connected with the outside world through this breach.Fu Donglou pondered, the vegetation here is lush, and the rocks are covered with vines. From the outside, this breach must be difficult to be found.

This door can only be opened from the inside. The mechanism is on the wall next to the door. When you open the stone door, you can see a dirt road under the bright moon and stars. It is obvious that you have reached the foot of the mountain.

Taking a deep breath of fresh air, Fu Donglou sighed, "Finally out..."

Before he finished speaking, Fu Donglou went limp along Bai Junhe's arm.

"Xi Yu!"
