Chapter 524: Unexpected, King Ming, who is extremely happy and sad
When he saw the hanging male corpse's face clearly, even Jiang Yao was shocked.
My whole body suddenly felt horrified.
No wonder he felt extremely uncomfortable when he first saw those feet. It turned out that this face turned out to be that of his previous life, Li Sui!
Jiang Yao blinked and took a closer look, realizing that this was Li Sui's face. He couldn't be more familiar with it.
He looked carefully at those feet, weren't they his feet in his previous life? Jiang Yao recognized a mole on his feet at once.
Jiang Yao's body was trembling a little. He looked at the face again and found that the familiar facial features were very calm. He was hanging on the dome of the tomb after death.
Li Sui is one of the Seven Great Immortals. How powerful is he? Even if he has been dead for tens of thousands of years, his body will not decay and will still be lifelike.
Jiang Yao didn't know who touched Li Sui's body.
Not Cui Yi. Because Cui Yi died before him. Moreover, Cui Yi died and became an immortal, leaving no body.
After Cui Yi became an emperor, Li Sui also chose to become an emperor. However, because he was a deposed emperor who rebelled against the Tang Dynasty twice, he suffered too much backlash from his royal destiny and failed to become an emperor successfully, leaving his body behind.
Li Sui was already dead at that time, and I don't know what happened to his body later.
Unexpectedly, his body was hung in the tomb of Emperor Taizu of the Tang Dynasty.
Obviously, this means to apologize.
Whose idea was this? People are dead, how interesting is this!?
A wave of sadness came over her, and Jiang Yao felt panicked and a little angry.
This body was no longer his, but he still felt sad. This body had been used in previous lives for thousands of years, carrying the joys, sorrows, and joys of that year.
He untied the body and looked at its arms, and sure enough he saw a familiar Sui Dynasty Suzaku totem.
A copybook was pasted on the back of the body, which read: Li Sui, a sinner of the Tang Dynasty, died without reincarnation.
There are many scars on the body, which look like whip wounds. This means that the body was whipped.
Looking at the whip marks, he was whipped forty-nine times.
Li Sui was also a hero who served as the Immortal Emperor and was the top immortal at that time. Who knew that after his death, his body would be so insulted.
Speaking of which, Jiang Yao was an immortal emperor in his two previous lives, but he didn't even have a decent mausoleum. In his first life, Yang Xuanming was secretly buried by Li Luoshu.
The second generation Li Sui was simply hung up and whipped to death.
"Hmph, Li Luoshu is such a hero, but his descendants are so narrow-minded." Jiang Yao snorted coldly.
Is this the idea of the deposed prince Li Hao?
Li Hao was later pardoned by the new emperor and allowed to return to Chang'an. He still had a strong influence. He suggested that Li Sui's body be hung in Gaoling to apologize, which was what he said.
Of course the new emperor couldn't ask for it.
Therefore, Li Sui's body was hung in Gaoling. This should be the truth of history.
Jiang Yao held Li Sui's body in his hands and continued to dig deeper.
Instead of doing nothing, he simply buried the remains of his previous life in the underground palace. Anyway, this underground palace is also Li Luoshu's tomb.
Isn't it an apology? Just put it in the coffin of the underground palace to apologize and occupy the magpie's nest.
The skull before was originally blocked by Li Sui's boots.
"You are really a hero for half your life, but you were whipped to death to apologize for your sins. In the end, it was me who came to bury you. You have really failed in this life."
"I'm sorry for myself, I'm sorry for Cui Yi, I'm sorry for the world, and I'm sorry for the Tang Dynasty. Why do you insist on restoring the Sui Dynasty? Isn't it good to be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty? This obsession is really killing people."
Jiang Yao complained to himself as he walked deeper, stepping on a corpse from time to time.
"...This obsession is really killing people." A voice came from the depths, exactly the same as Jiang Yao's voice.
It's an echo.
Jiang Yao didn't pay attention and continued: "You have gone through so much trouble and rebelled against the Tang Dynasty twice. As a result, you have lost your reputation and harmed others and yourself. What's the use of having a higher level of cultivation?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice exactly like his came from the depths again: "... Harming others and harming yourself, what's the use of having a higher level of cultivation? Hey."
"Who is it?!" Jiang Yao stopped and shouted sternly, "Come out!"
"Who is it? Come out! Hey!" The voice from deep came again, the tone and tone were exactly the same as Jiang Yao's, but with an extra "hey".
Jiang Yao is an idiot and knows that this is not an echo.
He placed the body of his previous life on the ground, leaned against the stone wall of the tomb passage, and then raised his pistol.
A red dot immediately appeared in the pistol's lightwave sight.
However, in this forbidden land, high-tech pistols are the biggest killers. The locked red dot is the thing that is learning to speak for itself.
The light wave collimator at this time is like Jiang Yao's second pair of eyes. High-tech products are easy to use.
In the collimator, a rickety figure appeared, like a short old man, but the light wavemeter was not a camera after all, it could only see an outline.
It was extremely dark here. Jiang Yao deliberately stood still, pretending not to see the other party, holding a lighter in one hand and looking around.
But he had been paying attention to the movement of the shadow in the sight.
The shadow suddenly stretched out a tentacle-like thing and slowly attacked Jiang Yao. In the sight, it actually looked like a long tongue.
"Bang!" Jiang Yao fired without hesitation.
Amidst the flashing blue light, there was a sharp scream, followed by a loud bang.
The power of this pistol is equivalent to Wu Zun's perfect strike.
And in this forbidden land, even the ghosts that grow locally rarely reach level three.
The second level is a very powerful existence, and can easily kill the strong Martial Saint who comes here. In other words, the perfect blow of the Martial Saint is already regarded as a strike of the top strong here.
What's more, the monster never expected that Jiang Yao had discovered it long ago, let alone that it was suddenly shot.
When you want to escape, where can you find the time?
"Hit." Jiang Yao walked over holding a lighter and saw an ugly monster. Its body had been shattered by bullets, and its heart and lung function must have been lost.
This thing doesn't look like a human, doesn't look like an ape, and looks a little like a scorpion. It's a complete monster.
The long thing that looked like tentacles and tongue before turned out to be its tail.
The tail is segmented one by one and is furry on top. It looks like both a scorpion tail and a spider's legs. It also has a hook at the end and a mouthpart under the hook.
At this time, the mouthparts at the end of the tail are still opening and closing. Don't look too disgusting.
"What the hell is this?" Jiang Yao frowned. Even though his memory of two lifetimes was as profound as the sea, he didn't know what it was.
Obviously, this is a special creature slowly born in the Forbidden Desert and does not exist in the outside world.
"What the hell is this? Hey." The mouthpart at the end of the monster's tail actually uttered a weak human language again, imitating Jiang Yao's speech.
"Is this your mouth just now, trying to imitate the Lord?" Ah Jiu couldn't help but say. Even she, a nine-headed monster snake, could not imagine that there could be such a weird and disgusting thing.
"That's the mouth just now. Are you talking like my lord? Hey." The mouthparts at the end of the monster's tail opened and closed again, and the tone and tone were exactly the same as Ah Jiu.
Just very weak.
For those who didn’t know, they thought Ah Jiu was talking.
While the mouthparts were talking, the furry scorpion tail was still trembling.
It was quite a perfect shot of Wu Zun, but it was not completely killed, which shows that this thing is also a powerful second-level monster.
Jiang Yao couldn't bear to waste any more bullets, so he took out the long knife from his waist and chopped it down.
He has no magic power and can only rely on physical muscle strength to cut.
He was a strong body-refiner, as strong as an elephant, far superior to a mortal, but he chopped it off several times before chopping up that disgusting tail and killing the monster completely.
Jiang Yao found human hair on the monster's tail.
This shows that many tomb robbers died at the hands of monsters.
Fortunately he had a pistol, otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to fight this monster.
Two pistols and dozens of bullets are Ginger Yao's biggest reliance.
Besides that, there is Ah Jiu. Although Ah Jiu has lost her magic power, her fangs are still there. But no matter how powerful her poison is, without her magic power and speed, it will be difficult to bite the enemy.
Furthermore, Jiang Yao brought a lot of medicine bags with him. Before coming here, he had taken special elixirs, and his flesh and blood were highly poisonous.
Which monster dares to eat him?
In fact, in a place like this, monsters like Xiao Hei who have upgraded from ordinary beasts are useful.
It was originally an ordinary beast, but it was forcibly upgraded with various top-level resources and techniques. A lot of its power was deposited in its body, turning it into a terrifying brute force.
Xiao Hei's magical skills are all about fighting against the five scum, but his physical brute strength is terrifying, almost like the power of a sea whale.
The canine guard's naturally powerful sense of smell and perception are far superior to those of a strong man who has lost his spiritual consciousness.
After being transformed by Yu Yan's skills, he is no longer afraid of the scorching heat here.
It is a useless level five monster outside. But here, it is completely the top powerhouse.
Jiang Lingyun brought Xiao Hei in, and Jiang Yao felt relieved. Although Xiao Hei is a dog, he has the cunning of a fox and the ferocity of a jackal, so he shouldn't suffer easily here.
Jiang Yao took back his thoughts and could only stop thinking about Lingyun.
"Huh, there's more." Jiang Yao suddenly raised his head and fired again.
A monster locked by the scope was shot again.
When I finally entered the underground palace, I had already killed four monsters.
As soon as you enter the huge underground palace, your eyes will be bright, like a lantern coming on and the stars and moon shining brightly.
One after another, the ever-burning lamps emit a quiet cold light, illuminating the huge underground palace brightly.
Compared with the furnace-like ground, the underground palace is also very cold.
Nine giant pillars, more than one foot thick and dozens of feet high, stand in the palace, like pillars reaching the sky. On top of the giant pillars are ancient murals.
There are also murals on the huge walls all around. The person who appears the most is Li Luoshu, followed by Queen Cui.
According to the rules of royal tombs in the past dynasties, regardless of whether there are remains or not, they all follow the official mausoleum specifications. In fact, most immortal emperors and immortals are tombs.
Because most of these people have become immortals, their bodies and souls have died, and not many of them have left their bodies.
There is another little-known rule: the content described in the murals in the mausoleum and palace is divided into two types of deeds: light and dark.
Ming deeds are the achievements and public events of the emperor during his lifetime. They are shown in murals mainly for commemoration, which is easy to understand.
What about secret deeds? They are secret things done by the emperor, things that should not be made public or even recorded during his lifetime.
These things have to be kept secret for various reasons. However, after the death of the emperor, they can be recorded on the murals in the tombs and underground palaces in the form of murals.
One of the things Jiang Yao is concerned about are these murals recording Li Luoshu's secret deeds.
He did not go directly because there were many corpses between the two outermost pillars.
Some have turned into bones, and some are still corpses.
There are also many corpses under the high platform in the middle of the hall.
These corpses were left behind by several groups of tomb robbers. Many of them had rings on their hands.
"Many of them killed each other." Jiang Yao pointed to the corpses on the ground, "Ajiu, have you noticed anything weird?"
"It's a poisonous realm." Ah Jiu nodded the snake's head, "These poisons are related to the sleeping lamp. They can make people kill each other."
"This poison domain is still functioning. Those who are not strong enough will die directly inside, while those who are strong will escape to the tomb passage before falling to death."
Jiang Yao smiled and said, "Fortunately, we were prepared." After saying that, he picked up the ring and strolled towards the high platform in the middle of the hall.
"This woman's body is extremely well preserved." Jiang Yao squatted down and looked at the body of a woman in yellow clothes. After reaching over, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why is it still hot?"
This woman was obviously dead, and had been dead for many years, but she still had warmth.
She died after killing each other, with a sword stuck in her back. She was already dead.
"This has something to do with her martial arts." Jiang Yao took off the female corpse's ring and found that her hands were still very elastic. "Her blood should be from Yangming, so she died without becoming stiff."
Jiang Yao suddenly noticed that there was an extremely exquisite jade pendant on the woman's waist, with this dragon carved on it and a dragon character in seal script in the middle.
This is the family emblem waist badge of a high-ranking member of the Wu family. The jade pendant with the character dragon indicates that she is from the Dragon clan and belongs to the direct lineage of the Dragon clan.
"Dragon valve..." Jiang Yao thought in his mind.
In today's true world, there is no such high-ranking clan as the Dragon Clan. However, more than ten thousand years ago, there was a Dragon Clan in the Eastern Region, and it was the most powerful force in the Eastern Region.
Dragon Burial Sea comes from Dragon Clan.
Could it be that this female corpse and Dragon Burial Sea are of the same race?
Jiang Yao carefully examined the corpse. Although he had no consciousness, he could infer that the female corpse had been dead for tens of thousands of years.
The immortality of her corpse for ten thousand years shows that she was very powerful during her lifetime.
Jiang Yao continued walking inside and found dozens of corpses, all wearing jade pendants with the family emblem of "dragon".
It seems that all the high-ranking figures of the Dragon Clan died here.
The time of death was similar to the time of Dragon Clan's demise, both thousands of years ago.
Moreover, the corpses of the Long family were all a little warm.
"Although they are human race, they have the blood of dragons." Jiang Yao thought, and checked a corpse again and concluded, "Unexpectedly, the Dragon clan and the demon clan Hai clan still share the same ancestor."
"No wonder Long Zhanhai's surname is Long." Jiang Yao understood.
Suddenly Ah Jiu said: "There seems to be writing under that corpse." She pointed at a corpse with her tail.
Jiang Yao walked over, removed the body, and saw four big characters written on the ground: No female seal.
"No female seal?" Ah Jiu was a little confused, "What does this mean?"
Jiang Yao immediately said: "What he wanted to write should be the words 'no demon seal'. But he didn't have time to finish writing, and the demon only wrote half of it and died."
Ah Jiu thought, it was indeed true. The character for female was written smaller, and should be half of the character for monster.
"So, they came here to find the demon seal." Ah Jiu said.
Jiang Yao smiled and said, "This is a legend. It is said that when Emperor Taizu of the Tang Dynasty, Li Luoshu, died, he sealed the demon seal and was buried with him in Gaoling."
Unexpectedly, the demon seal was hidden in Yunyin Tianxu, was obtained by Fenshan Jiuniang, and fell into her own hands.
"Who told the Long family that the demon-sealing seal was hidden in Gaoling?" Jiang Yao shook his head, "This may be a trap."
Jiang Yao collected all the rings and did not take care of the body anymore. Instead, he carried Li Sui's body and walked towards the high platform where the coffin was parked.
The closer you are to the high platform, the faster the antidote gas in the medicine bag on your body will dissipate. This means that the closer you are to the coffin, the more powerful the poison will be.
After the fall of the Tang Dynasty, among the tomb robbers who came here, the only one who could escape alive was Jiang Yao, a well-prepared Yaozhenren.
"What a powerful poison!" Jiang Yao looked a little solemn, "Thanks to us, the other person would have been dead at this time."
Jiang Yao went up to the high platform and looked into the huge coffin, and was immediately shocked.
There is a corpse in the coffin!
Moreover, there were two coffins, one for a man and one for a woman, wearing the imperial attire of the empress.
What's going on?
Didn’t Li Luoshu and his Queen Cui become immortals? Why did they leave their remains behind?
Jiang Yao was shocked when she suddenly discovered that the people in the coffin were not Li Luoshu and Empress Cui.
But two people he didn't know.
It's strange. Who are these men and women? Why are they buried in Gaoling in Li Luoshu?
These two people were not wearing the Taoist uniforms of the Da Lian period, but the court uniforms of the Emperor and Empress of the Immortal Tang Dynasty.
This is also very strange. In the grand funerals of the past dynasties, if there were remains, neither the monarch nor the ministers would be buried in court clothes.
This noble man and woman, who were like emperors and empresses, were buried in the Gaoling Underground Palace of Emperor Taizu of the Tang Dynasty wearing court clothes...
Jiang Yao was just surprised for a moment and suddenly reacted.
"I know who it is! It's the last emperor of Li Tang! The reincarnation of Li Luoshu and Empress Cui!" Jiang Yao slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.
"Because he is the reincarnation of Li Luoshu, he can be buried in the tomb of his previous life!"
Ah Jiu also understood, "During the Great Tribulation of the Immortal Realm, the end of the line for the emperors and empresses of the late Tang Dynasty came. Caught off guard, they had no choice but to enter Gaoling and bury themselves hastily to prevent their bodies from falling into the hands of others."
"That's right!" Jiang Yao clapped his hands, "Under the catastrophe, they knew they had no luck and had no choice but to enter Gaoling and bury themselves in the tomb of their previous life."
"In this way, we can avoid the corpse being left in front of others and being humiliated after death."
Jiang Yao said this and looked at the remains in the coffin carefully, "Sure enough, they are the reincarnations of Li Luoshu and his wife, and they look very similar."
"The first generation was king and established the Tang Dynasty. The second generation died and the country was destroyed, and he was hastily buried in Gaoling. Unexpectedly, Li Luoshu's tomb was used by his second generation."
Jiang Yao sighed a few words, couldn't help but sigh, and thought to himself: "Junior brother, does this count as a meeting for us? Haha."
After sighing in his heart, Prince Ming reached out his hand and took away the ring of the late Tang Dynasty Emperor and Empress.
This ring is extremely noble. But no matter how high the level of the ring is, it will decay if it has not been refined for such a long time.
Jiang Yao didn't have high hopes, it was just a professional habit.
Sure enough, as soon as he picked up the ring of Emperor Mo of the Tang Dynasty, the ring suddenly broke apart and turned into flying smoke.
After more than 200,000 years, it stands to reason that most of the resources in the ring will be turned into fly ash. Unless they are treasures and resources with a long enough shelf life.
However, I only heard a few "thumps" and a few things fell down, but they were not decayed yet.
It is indeed the Immortal Emperor's ring. After so long, something is still intact.
One of the objects was a strange black and white stone. When Jiang Yao saw this object, he was immediately overjoyed.
The fifth Liurentian chess piece!
Jiang Yao picked up the stone as soon as he copied it, and couldn't help but smile.
When Jiang Yao saw a few other things, he wanted to burst into laughter.
But just as Jiang Yao's smile bloomed, a ray of sword light struck from behind.
This sword appeared extremely unexpectedly, and even in this forbidden place, it carried fierce killing intent.
Before Jiang Yao could collect the treasures on the ground, he was locked by the sudden knife.
Jiang Yao and Ah Jiu never thought that there would be a powerful enemy ambushing nearby.
Moreover, the sword was a sure-kill shot and there was no way to hide. Caught off guard, Jiang Yao had no chance to shoot or draw the sword.
Seeing the light of the slashing sword, Jiang Yao couldn't help but feel sad.
It's so joyful and sad.
As the sword light suddenly rose, a familiar voice came: "This is a suitable place to bury you, die!"
