I am already immortal, why should I ascend to become an immortal?

Chapter 211 The Secret of the Qin Emperor's Tomb

After Li Mu seized power in the army, he eliminated dissidents and drove away Lian Po, which Jin Chan could understand.

But the King of Chu valued Lian Po, which made Jin Chan a little confused.

Isn't he afraid that the old ministers from the deeply rooted aristocratic families in the Chu State will object to this?

"General Jin, please go back and tell the king that we can just wait for Lü Buwei to fall into the trap. As for the Three Kingdoms, there is no need to worry about them. Besides, the new King of Tang does not seem to want to make enemies with the Qin Dynasty."

"As for Deng Lou and Lian Po, it's just that the old fox King of Chu is a little greedy. Although he did want to take advantage of the opportunity to conquer the Qin Dynasty at first, after Xiang Yan's death, the 90-day national fortune donation made him give up this idea. He only wanted to get a bigger share of the pie afterwards!"

Chang Lingjun stood up, stretched his stiff spine, then walked to Jin Chan and continued speaking.

"General Jin, I have heard a rumor that something might be bad for you. I hope you can take precautions in advance!"

"Not good for me?"

Jin Chan was a little surprised.

"Yes, since Tian Gao's death, Qi has sent a new commander, and with him came an old Taoist priest. When he met me yesterday, he said that he could help the Three Kingdoms coalition forces so that you, the general, would be unable to continue to lead the troops!"

"Old Taoist priest, what does he look like?"

When Jin Chan heard this, the first person he thought of was someone.

"He was over 70, with a haggard face, and wore a pink robe, pink pants, and pink shoes, all embroidered with peonies, and dressed in a very coquettish manner."

"Zhao Guizhen, it's really him!"

Jin Chan blurted out.

I haven't seen him since I was driven away by Yan He in the hall in Chang'an City that day. I didn't expect that this stinky old Taoist was waiting for me here and even sneaked into the State of Qi.

"Does the general know this man?"

"That's it!"

At this time, outside, the third breakthrough led by Lian Po had already begun.

Although the camp of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces was located far behind, the noisy roar was still deafening.

"Your Excellency Chang Lingjun, if nothing unexpected happens, Lv Buwei will be able to arrive at Hangu Pass within five days. I will trouble you then!"

"After the matter is accomplished, the king will personally welcome you back to Xianyang to clear your name!"

Jin Chan clasped his fists and bowed again, expressing his highest respect to this veteran minister who had served in his camp for three dynasties.

"General, rest assured. As a Qin man, I will do my best for the Qin. As for this injustice,

Chang Lingjun paused, his eyes showing a hint of sadness.

"I have never thought about this matter since I left Daqin. When the king regains power, I will go down and explain everything to the tribesmen."

After saying this, Lord Chang Ling waved his hand, signaling Jin Chan to leave the camp immediately, to be careful of eavesdroppers who might ruin Ying Lou's plan.

"treasure!"

Just when Jin Chan was about to say goodbye and leave, suddenly, the sound of footsteps as light as the wind outside the tent made him frown.

The rhythm is neither fast nor slow, nor impatient, as if it is not stepping on the dust but standing on the clouds.

The breathing is even, long, and soft like silk. Inhale through the nose and exhale slowly through the mouth.

Unlike the aura of a military general, his aura is exactly the same as that of a Taoist monk like Mu Xuanzi.

"Oh no, it's Zhao Guizhen!"

Jin Chan immediately put Tang Qianyan's talisman on his chest, transformed himself into the general guarding in front of Chang Lingjun's tent, and stood aside.

"Master Chang Lingjun, I have something to discuss with you!"

The next second, Zhao Guizhen, wearing a pink Taoist robe embroidered with bright peony patterns, suddenly pushed open the curtain and walked in.

He held a whisk in one hand and stroked his waist-length beard with the other, smiling and speaking. "Master Zhao, General Lian Po broke through the Hangu Pass this morning. Why did you come to me instead of helping him?"

After taking a quick glance at the golden cicada next to him, Lord Chang Ling asked Zhao Guizhen.

"Yesterday there were too many people to talk about it, but today I am ordered by the King of Qi to talk to Lord Chang Ling about something!"

The old Taoist priest Zhao Guizhen was not polite at all. He just waved his hand and asked three young Taoist priests wearing masks to bring an exquisitely carved mahogany chair and place it behind him.

"Walking corpse!"

There was no breathing, no heartbeat, and a slight stench of decay. Jin Chan immediately realized that the three things under the masks were not living people.

"Master, please speak!"

Chang Lingjun raised his right hand and asked symbolically.

"From now on, the bodies left behind by the three armies attacking Hangu Pass will be handled by this department. There is no need to dig pits and bury them underground."

Zhao Guizhen first waved his hand to signal the zombie to pour tea for him, and then spoke slowly.

"What does the Taoist priest want these corpses for?"

“It has its own magical uses!”

Although Zhao Guizhen did not reveal his intention, Jin Chan roughly guessed it. It was nothing more than refining it to create zombies and expand his own zombie army.

"Can!"

Chang Lingjun thought about it and did not refuse. After all, these dead people were not soldiers of his Qin State, so he could deal with them however he wanted.

"The King of Qi has something else for me to tell Lord Chang Ling. This time we must conquer Qin and build a great Qi ancestral temple in Xianyang. Let the King of Qin, Ying Lou Hanyu, take off his clothes, hold the Black Water Dragon Seal in his hand, and go to the capital of Qi to meet the King of Qi!"

When Lord Chang Ling was lobbying the Three Kingdoms, the two kings of Qi and Chu, together with the old king of Tang, did not initially hold out absolute hope of breaking through Hangu Pass and dividing up the Qin Empire.

After all, the vast Guanzhong Plain is located in an area with four barriers, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and Hangu Pass is known as the number one pass in the world.

Moreover, the Qin Dynasty's fierce and wolf-like army was famous throughout the world. Not only was Bai Qi in charge of the army, but there were also nearly one million black-armored cavalrymen of the Meng family army.

The three kings of Chu, Tang and Qi just wanted to force the King of Qin to cede some cities through war.

But now, for some unknown reason, the King of Qi suddenly changed his mind and was determined to capture Xianyang and destroy the Qin State.

"What does the King of Qi want to do?"

Chang Lingjun frowned slightly, then asked with a calm look.

"The Tomb of the King of Qin!"

Zhao Guizhen stretched out a finger and smiled sinisterly.

"What use does the King of Qi have for the Qin royal mausoleum?"

The Qin Mausoleum is located on the eastern outskirts of Xianyang City. It is the place personally selected by the late King Ying Chu for Ying Lou. It has been under construction for more than ten years and is guarded by elite troops appointed by Ying Chu when he was alive. No one is allowed to approach before completion, and violators can be executed on the spot.

This also led to the fact that in the entire Qin Dynasty, except Ying Lou and the craftsmen responsible for building the royal tomb, no one knew how much of the royal tomb had been completed.

Lord Chang Ling couldn't understand what the King of Qi was trying to do by spying on the Qin royal mausoleum!
"Haha, this is a secret, but if Lord Chang Ling promises me something, it's okay to tell you!"

Zhao Guizhen took a sip of the hot tea in his hand and said mysteriously.

Hear.

Chang Lingjun was silent for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he nodded: "Master, please speak!"

"Ahem, this Mausoleum of the King of Qin is different from the royal mausoleums of the other six countries. It is comparable to the Heavenly Palace and can allow mortals to live forever, and even have the hope of entering the white jade tower. His Majesty the King of Qi saw this and did not hesitate to send another million soldiers and dozens of generals to reinforce Hangu Pass."

"By the way, if Hangu Pass is not breached within 20 days, the King of Qi will let me return to the country and bring all the Central Plains soldiers to help you!"

　There is no time to check it. I will fix it later.
