If it's less than 5,000 words, it can't be called a long chapter, so I'll call it a medium-long chapter.
"Check the equipment!" Aoki's voice was low, reminding the people in the spacecraft to be ready and about to start action.
The landscape of Qingcheng Mountain has clearly appeared on the screen of the spacecraft. The mountains are full of greenery, dense trees, and surrounded by peaks that look like a city wall.
Wang Xuan put on the protective clothing, which felt a little heavy. It has a certain defensive effect on bullets and cold weapons, and can save his life at critical moments.
The alloy knife he carries on his back is very sharp. If you really need to fight in close quarters, it is a very effective killing weapon. The dagger is naturally also very useful. In a narrow area where there is no way to turn around, it is a fang that can kill the enemy.
"There is a piece of equipment that I don't know how to use." Wang Xuan didn't understand one of the small bottles of liquid.
Aoki told him that it was soaked with artificial iris, and wearing it could prevent his identity from being revealed.
After Wang Xuan did what he was told, he looked in a small mirror and his pupils turned light blue. With a simulated human skin mask on, he looked like a Westerner overall.
"Qingcheng Mountain is related to Taoism and has a strong mysterious color. Could it be that we really unearthed something extraordinary?" the "Black Tiger" who participated in this operation said, quite interested.
They all use code names for each other and no one will mention their real names.
Kitzi said: "We must stop them this time and not let them take it away successfully. The old soil has been hollowed out by them. All the good things have been transported to Xinxing and become the private collections of research institutions and plutocrats."
Mentioning these, several people expressed resentment.
Now all over the old land, the underground of all the famous mountains and rivers have been raided. Even Qingcheng Mountain is no exception. I don’t know how many times it has been dug up.
Now there is actually something discovered, which is indeed beyond their expectations.
As a novice, Wang Xuan asked, "Will blocking them in this way lead to retaliation and eventually trigger a large-scale conflict?"
Aoki shook his head and said: "No, even if the Old Earth falls, it cannot be controlled by one or two chaebols and stir up trouble. Moreover, the relationship between the Old Earth and the New Star is not bad. After all, they have the same origin. You have to have confidence in the organization.
, we have already penetrated deep into the starry sky and are not afraid of them."
Heihu said: "First of all, it is the illegal digging carried out by the chaebol. It is a loss in itself. If it is blocked, there will be nothing to say. Afterwards, everything will gradually calm down and all parties will pretend that nothing happened."
Of course, this does not mean that there is no danger. On the contrary, the conflict is very fierce and it is normal for casualties to occur.
Wang Xuan was silent. This kind of exploration was not in line with his original intention. In the early days, he thought it was just to explore some secret places and go deep into dangerous no-man's land.
"High-energy weapons have been set up in the mountain. People from the second and third groups can deal with them." A call came from the other side of the screen.
Aoki responded: "Make sure everything is resolved. Don't wait until we enter the underground palace and be blocked in and destroyed."
"No problem, there is a fourth team on standby at any time."
…
Wang Xuan was awe-inspiring, this kind of expedition was already considered a small battle, and it was far more than just this group of people.
Aoki was very calm, as if he knew what he was thinking, and explained calmly: "It involves things that make the pre-Qin alchemists excited and excited. If it is really related to the immortals, the value will be immeasurable, so this time it must be foolproof.
Several groups of people and horses set out together."
"Old Mu, it's time for you to concentrate. Be prepared for super strong electromagnetic pulse at any time to destroy the robots in the underground palace, as well as the corresponding weapons."
Lao Mu will stay on the spaceship. In addition to assisting them in their departure, he will also be responsible for destroying some of the enemy's possible killer weapons.
"Will they have countermeasures?" Wang Xuan, as a novice, asked humbly.
Aoki was very serious: "Don't worry, we are very professional. You can slowly study our various steps and corresponding preparations afterwards."
Qingcheng Mountain is evergreen all year round. There are many stone steps and winding paths in the mountain, and some ancient Taoist temples are hidden on the cliffs and among ancient trees.
There are too many legends about this place. It is a famous Taoist paradise.
Unfortunately, for decades or hundreds of years, the underground here has been dug into a spider web shape. It is really not easy to make new discoveries this time.
Qingmu, Black Tiger, Kite, Kite, and Xiao Wang entered the forest, leaving Lao Mu behind in the spaceship.
Xiao Wang is Wang Xuan, which is his code name in the team.
Aoki took the lead, walking silently through the mountains and forests like an agile tiger and leopard. The others were all people who had practiced old techniques and were very strong, following behind him.
Soon, they arrived at their destination. The entrance to the underground palace they were digging this time was a relatively remote low mountain, located on the edge of Qingcheng Mountain. No wonder they missed it in the past.
Some robots are working tirelessly to dig deep into the mountains and transport a large amount of earth and rocks.
Although it was far away, one could already see the vague underground palace in the heart of the mountain.
Aoki made a gesture, telling them to stay calm and wait outside, waiting for the Zhou family and the Ling family to open the underground palace and get things before they would block the exit and take action. There was no need to go in and take risks now.
Amidst the roar of machinery, several stone doors were forcibly opened one after another.
"Dig it through, the underground palace is huge!" A cry came from inside.
"There is an altar, I found it, and there is a golden letter enshrined on it!" Excited shouts came from the underground palace, and a group of people cheered.
The people guarding the entrance couldn't hold it any longer. Many people waited for the turbid energy to dissipate and then rushed in, wanting to see the underground palace as soon as possible, which may involve the relics of the immortals.
Black Tiger, Kite, and Kite also had shortness of breath. They were people practicing old arts, and they valued the relics of immortals more.
Aoki was okay, he remained extremely calm, said nothing, and waited silently for the last moment to come.
Yaozi said: "They are all rare items from the old land. As a result, they have almost been looted by them over the past decades or hundreds of years. This time, nothing can be done to let them get it."
"It's almost done." Qingmu contacted Lao Mu through a secret line and said: "Old Mu, do it!"
Then, he ordered the second group and the third group to work together to eliminate the high-energy weapons that the other party had ambushed in the mountains.
First, all the robots near the underground palace malfunctioned. Some fell down directly, while others crackled and sparks flew everywhere.
These robots will be very troublesome if they cannot be dealt with in advance. They are invulnerable and carry energy weapons, which are considered big killers.
Even if they fight with knives, they are still very lethal.
boom!
A strong shock wave came from the mountain, and the high-energy weapons prepared by the Zhou family and Ling Chao were destroyed.
"Kill them all?" Wang Xuan's face didn't look very good. That was a lot of human lives, which he had never experienced before.
Aoki calmly replied: "No, most of them just fainted, mainly cleaning their weapons."
boom!
The next moment, an explosion occurred outside the underground palace, and earth and rocks collapsed, flooding the entrance and completely blocking it.
There was a faint roar in the underground palace, and everyone was blocked inside.
There was no movement in the surrounding areas, and no one came to help the trapped people.
Aoki waited for a while and then began to give orders again: "Five groups, the Sixth Patriarch, follow us and wait for the opportunity to enter the underground palace."
"Are you going to suffocate them all to death?" Wang Xuan felt a chill. Such an adventure was very different from what he had imagined.
Black Tiger shook his head and said: "No, under normal circumstances we don't kill animals. When they faint from lack of oxygen, we will dig the entrance and go in."
Aoki said: "I really hope that we can find a more powerful inheritance than the Alchemist Root Technique. Otherwise, our future will have no way out. Even the masters of the old techniques are very vulnerable to hot weapons."
He was inspired by the fact that in this era, people who practice old arts have a deep sense of powerlessness. For them, there is no hope for the future.
"The sound is wrong. They are using energy weapons to dig into the mountain wall in the opposite direction and want to escape in other directions!" Aoki stood up in a hurry. In addition to ordering the fifth and sixth groups to come over, he also ordered the second, third and fourth groups to come over.
People and horses came to hunt.
Black Tiger disagreed and said: "How far can they dig out? This is a big mountain."
"Don't forget, Qingcheng Mountain has been dug hundreds of times. The ground is empty. There are many spider web-like roads. Maybe they can dig through one. Then it will be very troublesome for us to chase."
boom!
Entrances were blasted open and roads cleared.
At this time, several other groups of people also arrived.
Wang Xuan prepared silently, carrying an alloy knife on his back and holding an energy gun. This weapon can adjust the energy output and has two effects: death and fainting.
He was very handy, after all, he had just picked it up not long ago, so he chose the low-power fainting effect.
"They haven't broken through the mountain yet. Let's go, be careful, and rush in!" Aoki shouted, and the energy grab in his hand swept directly in.
Amidst the muffled groans, the sound of falling to the ground came from the heart of the mountain.
Suddenly, Qingmu fell forward. At the same time, Wang Xuan felt his hair stand on end, and he also fell to the ground.
With a pop, a transparent blood hole appeared on the chest of the kite next to him. The protective clothing could not block it, and blood spattered everywhere.
The kite fell directly to the ground and died without even making a sound.
This had a huge impact on Wang Xuan. It was the first time he saw someone being killed, and he died right in front of his eyes.
Although his mind was mature, he was still greatly touched and his heart was shaken. It was a living human life. One moment, he was walking side by side with him, and the next moment, he was bloody and died miserably on the ground.
He was asking himself, was it too hasty to choose this path? It was completely different from what he had imagined.
He has parents and relatives waiting for him at home, so he cannot die outside.
Wang Xuan calmed himself down and made sure that he was alive no matter what. The first task of the expedition was to ensure that his life was safe.
"We haven't killed them yet, but they can't bear it anymore. There's nothing to say about that." Aoki growled, first adjusting the output power of the energy gun to a lethal level.
He swept forward in one sweep, and then showed his amazing ability. In the darkness, he braved the flying beams of light and rushed in. His perception was super strong, he wandered in the underground palace, and avoided many beams of energy light in advance.
Wang Xuan was surprised. Aoki was indeed an incredible strong man and a great master.
Chi!
The light of the knife lit up, and Aoki rushed to those people, directly used the alloy knife, and swung it in the crowd with his terrifying skills, with terrifying lethality.
"Charge!" Black Tiger, Kite and several other groups of men and horses all rushed over.
Wang Xuan also moved, still using the stun effect of the energy gun. In the process, he knocked down several people.
Although it was his first time coming into contact with this kind of weapon, he was still able to hit the target even when strafing at close range.
Wang Xuan was very cautious, moving along the mountain wall many times, hiding behind the rocks in the underground palace, and passing by the energy light several times.
However, the energy beam disappeared soon, and people from both sides encountered each other and fought in close quarters.
"Aoki, I've met a super master. This man has mastered profound new techniques. I can't stop him!" Heihu yelled, and he was covered in blood.
One person's palms glowed and he slashed towards the black tiger. A large piece of light rained down like the sunset. During the collision, half of the black tiger's body was covered in blood.
Roar!
Aoki roared, rushed over, and violently collided with the master.
Boom!
At this moment, the mountain wall broke open, and someone smashed the rocks and fell into a passage. As Aoki guessed, there was a spiderweb-like underground road nearby, which had been dug before.
The man who had a fierce duel with Aoki held a golden letter in his hand, turned around and walked away, leaping into the passage.
A group of people followed and fled.
"Chase!" Aoki took the lead and was the first to chase, followed closely by the others.
Kite shouted to Wang Xuan: "You are not good with guns. Just a few of your shots almost hit one of our own. Stay here and stop chasing."
Wang Xuan nodded. Although he felt that his perception was sharp and he would not hit his own people, but since the other party said so, whether it was to take care of him as a novice or because he was really worried about his marksmanship, he did not distinguish it and nodded.
Come down.
The underground palace was quiet, and there were a bunch of people lying on the ground. Some were dead, and many others had fainted from energy shots and were not seriously injured.
Wang Xuan was very cautious, hiding behind a boulder, observing and sensing carefully.
Sure enough, there were people pretending to be fainting. There was a person very close to Wang Xuan who was breathing strangely. He was clearly awake and seemed very nervous.
Wang Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly. He was surprised to recognize that this was an acquaintance - Zhou Yun!
He did not expect that as a direct descendant of the Zhou family, Zhou Yun would come in person.
He probably regretted it now and his intestines were green. He must not have expected that something would happen.
After all, in the past, when the major chaebols excavated ruins in various places, they almost went smoothly and had an overwhelming advantage. Even if they were interfered with, it did not matter to the overall situation. Such a disastrous failure was rare.
Wang Xuan said silently, "Xiao Zhou, I'm sorry, I can't deal with your very powerful father Zhou Mingxuan, then as Qin Cheng said, every time I see you... I'll beat you up!"
The most important thing is that he found something strange about Zhou Yun, like he temporarily changed into ordinary black clothes with others and did not wear high-level protective clothing. This was obviously because he wanted to escape by paddling.
Moreover, Wang Xuan noticed that there seemed to be something hidden on his chest.
Wang Xuan silently picked up a stone and threw it silently. With a bang, Zhou Yun covered his head and screamed, jumped up, and his head was bleeding.
Wang Xuan did not commit the murder. He was just a student who had just graduated from college. He had no deep grudge against the other party and could not kill him no matter what.
Wang Xuan was like a gecko swimming by the wall, clinging to the rock wall, passing by with a swipe and a chirp, tearing the clothes on Zhou Yun's chest, snatching away a jade letter, then quickly retreated, hiding again
Behind the boulder.
Sure enough, he was right not to use the energy gun to stun Zhou Yun just now. It was precisely because Zhou Yun jumped up in severe pain and was struggling there that there were people pretending to be dead secretly who did not dare to fire randomly until Wang Xuan took it away.
Yu Han pulled away and retreated. Only after Zhou Yun struggled to run away did the energy beam come over.
"Get him for me. The jade letter hidden in the golden letter was originally in my hand, but now it has been taken away by him!" Zhou Yun roared.
boom!
Wang Xuan was hiding behind a boulder. The altar that was very close to him was hit and unexpectedly fell apart, and then collapsed suddenly.
Several exclamations sounded.
There is actually a space under the altar. There is a futon near the stone wall on one side. There is a person sitting cross-legged on it. He is wearing a feather coat and has long black hair. His face is ruddy and shiny, and he looks like he is only in his thirties.
How old do you look?
"Wearing a feather robe, he is... the top strong man among the alchemists, and his physical body is still... existing in the world!" The people still alive in the underground palace were shocked.
The most important thing is that this top warrior among the alchemists is holding a silver animal skin book in his hand and looking down at it, as if there is still life and he is always alive.
The chaebol people know the inside story, and they all know that this person is actually dead.
Whoosh whoosh!
Several figures rushed down, using rocks and other cover to approach the legendary sorcerer.
Something horrifying happened, silently. The black-haired man turned into dust, and his feathers flew away. He seemed to have transformed on the spot and disappeared completely.
Puff puff!
The six men in black who rushed over were all shattered inexplicably, and their blood and feathers fell at the same time, staining the ground red.
The feather coat disintegrated and turned into dust after falling. Finally, only a silver animal skin scroll fell to the ground, with a faint silver glow.
This astonishing scene completely stunned Wang Xuan!
