286 Visiting the Imperial Tomb at Night
Hearing that this little girl actually wanted to practice with him, Li Xing was relieved after a moment of surprise. Since Princess Yurui asked him to take care of Xianglan, she must have already considered this. In other words, she had no objection to Li Xing.
Xing also learns this technique.
It is not Li Xing's character to not take advantage of others. He smiled and asked: "Oh, is your Haoran Divine Palm even more powerful than my Kung Fu?"
Xianglan's little face was full of pride, and she pursed her lips and said: "Of course! My sister said that Haoran Divine Palm is a heaven-level skill. It can be practiced by national warriors and gods. My cultivation level is getting better and better.
The higher it is, the more powerful it will be when you use the Divine Palm."
Li Xing was shocked again. It turned out to be a heaven-level skill. But when he thought about Princess Yurui, who was a great mage in her previous life, he didn't find it strange at all. A person at the level of a great mage knew several sets of heaven-level skills.
What.
He intended to learn this set of exercises, so he deliberately showed disbelief: "Oh? Your exercises are really so powerful? I won't know until I learn them."
Li Xing stayed by Xianglan's side. He ate what the girl ate and used what the girl used. His life was quite comfortable. Three days later, Zhu Qingying found Li Xing and told him that the selection of Ouchi guards had been completed.
It's time for him to take office.
Li Xing bid farewell to Xianglan for the time being and followed Zhu Qingying into the Tongling Mansion. The courtyard of the Tongling Mansion is very grand, with more than 500 steps vertically and horizontally, bridges to divert water, and towering pavilions.
Thirty-six captains of guards were waiting in the commander's mansion. As soon as Li Xing arrived, these thirty-six people said in unison: "See you, commander!"
The thirty-six captains of guards are all at the eighth level of Qi training or above, and have extraordinary momentum. According to Zhu Qingying, each captain of guards is responsible for twenty great guards, and each great guard is responsible for fifty guards.
In other words, there are more than 30,000 guards under Li Xing's jurisdiction. From this, it can also be seen that the palace's guard strength is also extremely powerful.
Of course, not all of the 36,000 guards are national warriors, and there are only a hundred of them. Most of the guards are blood-trained warriors. Pingguo is a small country after all, and it cannot produce so many national warriors.
Li Xing nodded: "Hello, brothers, I am Zhao Yun. From now on I will be the commander of the guards and I will work with you all." After saying a few words on the stage, Li Xing waved his hand and asked everyone to retreat.
As soon as the thirty-sixth guard chief left, Zhu Qingying smiled and said: "Zhao Yun, I will take you to see your father."
Li Xing's heart moved, knowing that it was only now that Zhu Jin began to trust him. So, he followed Zhu Qingying to see Zhu Jin.
Zhu Jin's residence was the Taifu's Mansion, not far from the Commander's Mansion, just a few steps away. When he arrived at the Taifu's Mansion, Li Xing was surprised to find an old acquaintance standing next to Zhu Jin, Wang Zixing!
The hatred between Wang Zixing and Li Xing has accumulated greatly. Wang Zixing destroyed Sanyi Garden, and Li Xing killed his son Wang. They are enemies of each other and want to kill each other.
Zhi Xing sat under Zhu Jin. He looked at Li Xing with a scrutinizing gaze. Three years later, Zhi Xing had not made any progress in his cultivation and was still at the fourth level of Qi training.
Despite Li Xing's cultivation going smoothly, he reached the eighth level of qi training in one breath. But for most people, qi training is extremely difficult. Even if he breaks through the first level, it is a great joy.
The cultivation of most qi-training warriors often stagnates at a certain stage. From the first level of qi-training to the tenth level of qi-training, there are many people at each level who finally cannot make any progress until they die of old age.
Wang Zixing's qualifications are limited and he can no longer make progress unless he obtains the elixir or someone with great ability is willing to help, but this is extremely unlikely.
When enemies met, they would have been extremely jealous. However, Li Xing remained calm. After paying homage to Zhu Jin, he stood aside quietly.
"Haha, Zixing, this is my new recruit, Zhao Yun, the current guard commander, seventh level of Qi training."
It has to be said that meeting the fourth level of Qi training is like a little sheep meeting a bad wolf. Although Wang Zixing was old, he still stood up and saluted Li Xing: "General Zhao, I have long admired your name."
Li Xinggong cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Prince, I have heard of your name a long time ago. I am lucky to meet you today."
The two of them exchanged a few polite words on the surface.
Zhu Jin smiled and said: "Zhao Yun, this Wang Zixing, was my commander at the beginning and treated me well. Now he has come to join me and will work with you in the future."
Although Fang Hou was sitting in the city, he was a local emperor after all, and could not compare with the prosperity of the imperial capital. Prince Xing could be king and hegemony outside, but in the imperial capital, he was just a low-ranking figure.
Zhu Jin started talking and talked for several hours, which made Li Xing quite bored. What he said was nothing more than the current situation in the palace, the situation in Pingguo, and how to deal with it, etc.
Zhu Jin finally finished speaking and said with a smile: "If I succeed in the future, you will all be great contributors and everyone will receive a heavy reward! Zhao Yun, you assist Qingying in dispatching the guards. Zixing, you are responsible for helping me contact various officials.
vertically and horizontally.”
In this sentence, Zhu Jin clearly told Li Xing that although he was the commander of the guards, the power was in Zhu Qingying's hands and he could only assist. Li Xingzhi was not here, so he didn't care. He just wanted to find an opportunity to go to the palace.
Find the magic weapon Nine Dragon Mace. Then cooperate with Murong Jiaojiao to capture the ghost fox Zhu Jin and force him to reveal the secret.
After leaving the Tutor's Mansion, Li Xing and Zhu Qingying returned to the Commander's Mansion and began to manage the guards. Li Xing only served as a subordinate, and Zhu Qingying would do whatever Zhu Qingying told him to do. In this way, Li Xing was happy to be free. Whenever he had the opportunity,
Just walking around the palace.
He is the commander-in-chief, and everyone respects him when they see him. Naturally, no one cares about him, and his passage is unimpeded.
Like this, another three days.
That night, Murong Jiaojiao appeared in the commander's mansion. Tonight, she was wearing a black tights and she was full of energy.
When Li Xing saw her makeup, he smiled and said, "Where are you going?"
Murong Jiaojiao smiled and said, "You have become the commander-in-chief of the bodyguards. We can now investigate the location of the treasure."
Li Xingdao: "In the past few days, I have ordered the guards to pay attention to everything, and found nothing. Do you have more information? If not, I don't think it will be easy to find the treasure."
Murong Jiaojiao blinked: "Yes, that's why I came here today just to find clues with you."
"Where to find it?" Li Xing became more energetic and asked quickly.
"Imperial Mausoleum!" Murong Jiaojiao said word by word.
A man and a woman flew out of the palace. A god discovered them, but seeing that it was the commander-in-chief on inspection, he didn't ask anything. The Black Devil taught everyone that they didn't actually care much about the affairs of the palace, and their status was very aloof.
During the flight, Li Xingzhi sighed. It was really unkind to dig up people's ancestral graves. When Murong Jiaojiao said it just now, he was shocked.
However, her explanation made Li Xing feel that being a villain was worth it.
Murong Jiaojiao believes that since the treasure is a major secret of the royal family, then Xiang Zhishan is probably the only one who knows this secret. If he has any clues about this secret, he will definitely put it in the safest place.
Most people will think that the safest place is to carry it with them.
"I hope that when Xiang Zhi dies, he will not be stripped naked and clean. In that case, the clues will definitely be gone." Li Xing said.
Murong Jiaojiao rolled her eyes at him: "Don't worry about this, I know it. The emperor was completely dressed before he died, so no one touched him. And no one knows this secret, how can they touch the corpse?"
"That's good." Li Xing breathed a sigh of relief.
The imperial mausoleum of Pingguo was built in a place where spiritual energy was stored and gathered. It was surrounded by mountains and two streams of running water passed through it. The tomb of Xiang Chenshan was built not long ago.
The imperial mausoleum was guarded by a large number of mausoleum-defending troops. The two of them did not dare to force their way in, but quietly escaped.
In the imperial mausoleum, there is lush vegetation, night lights are burning, and there are patrols patrolling the surrounding areas on a routine basis.
Both of them were at the seventh level of Qi training, so they walked quietly and didn't disturb anyone along the way. However, being so cautious, their movements were much slower. It took more than an hour to get around Xiang Zhishan's mausoleum.
This mausoleum is very tall and magnificent. There are terracotta warriors and horse warriors around it. The four large cauldrons are filled with oil and are displayed in front of the tomb. The flames in it are burning brightly and illuminating the four directions. Nearby, there are a group of palace maids and the emperor's grandson guarding the mausoleum. Once they show up,
, will be discovered.
Seeing this scene, Li Xingzhi frowned and whispered: "How do you get in with so many people?"
Murong Jiaojiao smiled slightly: "There was a way." She took out a baggage from behind, opened it, and picked out two pieces of clothing, which turned out to be mourning clothes.
Li Xing rolled his eyes: "Do you want to put it on and sneak in? You can't think of it."
Murong Jiaojiao said: "You have a better way."
Li Xing shut his mouth and put on his mourning clothes in silence, saying in his heart, Emperor, I want you to take advantage, you'd better leave clues on your body.
There are a large number of people guarding the mausoleum, hundreds of them. These people include palace maids, male servants, and the emperor's grandsons and relatives, and they are all wearing the same filial piety. When you stand inside, you can't recognize anyone at first glance.
Come.
Li Xing and Murong Jiaojiao put on their clothes and walked inside.
During the period when the mausoleum was being guarded, people could not stop coming and going. After all, after these people cried, they always had to eat, drink, and go out. Therefore, there were a lot of people coming and going. When Li Xing and Murong Jiaojiao lowered their heads and entered the mausoleum, there was no one at all.
People take a look.
Most of the people around were older women. They were not seen crying. Instead, they were sitting cross-legged on the ground, talking and laughing with the other old women, telling some fancy stories.
Li Xing was secretly amused, thinking that with so many old women teasing Menzi, Xiang Zhishan would not be lonely.
The tomb was huge, and it took the two of them a lot of time to find the place where the coffin was stored. It was a square coffin room, with a side of about twenty paces. In front of the coffin, there were two lamp keepers.
The women have all fallen asleep.
Li Xing slapped the two women on the shoulders, and they both fainted and fell to the ground. He and Murong Jiaojiao looked at each other, nodded, and said, "Go ahead!"
The coffin was completely sealed, but the two of them moved their fingers and had tens of thousands of kilograms of strength. The coffin lid shook slightly and Li Xing lifted it up directly.
As soon as they opened the coffin, both of them were stunned. The coffin was empty and there was no body at all.
