Crossing the Continent of Kings: Under the Valkyrie Zhongli

General Duan, who was kneeling on the ground, didn't think too much. After seeing King Lanling recognize him, he was so excited that he burst into tears, and hurriedly said: "Yes, it is the old minister, Your Highness, after so many years, the old minister finally See you again!!"

The old man who was pulled aside by General Duan also reacted at this time, knelt down on one knee like General Duan, and said with tears in his eyes: "Your Highness, and old minister, do you still remember me?"

King Lanling took a closer look at the other old man, and finally found a sense of familiarity between his eyebrows, and said in disbelief, "You are... Grand Master Han?"

It's not that King Lanling couldn't recognize him. In his memory, Taishi Han was a middle-aged man with high spirits. It's too big.

"Yes, it's the old minister!" The eyes of the old man kneeling on the ground suddenly burst into light, and he said excitedly: "For so many years, Lao Chen has been worried about you all the time!"

"When we returned to the dilapidated Jinting Kingdom, we wanted to find you, but even though we searched the entire Jinting Kingdom ruins, we couldn't find you, so we have always believed that you must still be alive in this world. It lasted so long!"

"You guys...have you ever returned to the ruins of the Jinting Kingdom?" King Lanling frowned, feeling as if he had misunderstood the veterans of the Jinting Kingdom in front of him.

In fact, when he saw Forbe, who had served his family for several generations, he had already noticed that something was wrong in his thinking, but the deep-rooted hatred for so many years made him resist that possibility. think.

But seeing the three loyal veterans in front of him, he finally wavered.

"Your Highness, what's the matter with you?" General Duan couldn't help asking as he watched Lanling King sink into deep thought.

Uncle Fu also found out that King Lanling's state was not right at this time, and said with a wry smile: "His Royal Highness didn't know the truth back then...that's right, you back then...too young."

"Old Duan, hurry up and take out the few secret books we rescued before, and let His Royal Highness have a look!" Fu Bo said to the old general Duan who was still kneeling on the ground.

"Yes, yes... It is time for His Royal Highness to know the truth of the year..." Old General Duan muttered as he got up from the ground, rushed into the room, and tremblingly took out a handle from under the bed. A key with a complicated pattern, and then a large locked box was dragged out from the bottom layer of the cabinet.

Slowly brushing the dust off the box, Old General Duan opened the box solemnly, took out a few yellowed books, and handed them to King Lanling who had just walked in with both hands.

"What is this?" King Lanling looked at the book in his hand, took a deep breath, and then asked.

Obviously what he wants to know may be in his hands, but he is a little afraid to open it.

"This is the truth back then. We found it from the ruins of the Jinting Kingdom." Fu Bo looked at the secret books in the hands of King Lanling and said sadly: "We didn't know the truth at the time, and we were still discovering these secret books. Afterwards, I understood the reason for the invasion of the demon species."

As soon as Uncle Fu finished speaking, Taishi Han smiled wryly and said, "Your Highness, you... have to be mentally prepared, the content... Forget it, it's better for you to take a look yourself."

After listening to the words of the two, King Lanling took a deep breath, and without hesitation, he slowly flipped through the secret manuscript in his hand.

To King Lanling's surprise, he thought this secret book would record some secrets, but found that the whole secret book was a study on the trajectory of magic power.

King Lanling had only learned killing skills, and he could only say he knew nothing about these academic things, so he raised his head in doubt and asked, "What does this have to do with the demon seed chaos back then?"

Taishi Han took a deep breath and said, "The demon clan is a failed product of God's experiment. In the early days, they worked together with the native species of the mainland."

"So in ancient times, the meaning of the existence of the Demon Family was to drive the Demon Seeds and work for the gods. Therefore, their power seems to be very attractive to the Demon Seeds."

"So you use these to speculate the truth of the year?" King Lanling said coldly.

"Of course it's not just these," Taishi Han said with a wry smile, "We also discovered many laboratories underground in Jin Tingguo, the purpose of which is to study the source of power of the people of the Mo Dao family."

"It even includes...the trajectory of the magical power in their bodies, trying to find out the difference from ordinary magicians."

King Lanling frowned, no one can see the trajectory of the magic power in other people's bodies, unless it is...

"Yes, dissect." Taishi Han shook his head, as if he didn't want to recall the tragic situation back then.

King Lanling's pupils shrank slightly, and he said like crazy: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Chapter 176 Digging Books

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Lanling Wang Zhuangruo said frantically: "My father, such a kind person, how could it be, would it be..."

As he said that, King Lanling himself remembered that before the Jinting Kingdom was destroyed, he had heard that many officials had reported to his father that a large number of inheritors of the magic family had disappeared for no reason, but the people who had always acted vigorously But the father has been perfunctory about this matter. Now that I think about it, something is really wrong.

"That's all, it can only show that my father is studying the power of magic, and it can't explain that the chaos of the demon seeds was caused by my father!"

Taishi Han smiled wryly, and said: "The old minister never said that the former emperor was the cause of the chaos of the demon seeds, but His Highness already guessed it, didn't he?"

King Lanling fell silent, then gritted his teeth, and said firmly: "I don't care, I won't believe it without substantial evidence!"

General Duan took out a book from the box again, handed it to King Lanling, and said, "Your Highness, just keep reading. If there is no very certain evidence, we would not dare to speak so rashly about the late emperor."

King Lanling took the book from General Duan and opened it silently, only to find that it was a record of the mutation and strengthening after the meridians of the inheritors of the Demon Dao family were transplanted to the Demon Seed.

The King of Lanling flipped through the pages one by one, the experimental data meticulously recorded the inhuman experiments, the King of Lanling just read in silence, the hand that was not holding the book already clenched his fist unconsciously .

"Is this what my father allowed?" King Lanling asked through gritted teeth.

Taishi Han lowered his head silently, as if acquiescing.

"Where is the evidence? There is no evidence that my father was involved in that incident!" King Lanling said angrily.

The three senior ministers looked at each other, then knelt down on one knee again and said, "In order to prevent the late emperor from being criticized by others, I made a decision to bury all the other books. If His Royal Highness wants to watch it, the senior minister can dig it out." .”

King Lanling looked at the three excited veterans in front of him, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Forget it, since you three said so, then I won't dig it out anymore."

When Zhong Fei heard this, he immediately became anxious: "No, your business is over, but mine is not done yet! Dig, you must dig it out!!"

Several old ministers looked at each other, and said with some doubts: "I don't know if your Excellency is..."

When they saw Zhong Fei following behind King Lanling, they thought he was one of the followers of King Lanling. After all, in their knowledge, King Lanling was still a noble prince, and he had several followers. Not really weird either, but now it seems like it wasn't.

"I, I came here for the ancient books you buried." Zhong Fei waved his hand: "Among the ancient books you buried, is there any record about the five thunders shaking the drum?"

Taishi Han frowned and said, "I, Jin Tingguo, do have the classics about the Five Thunders and Shocking Drums, and we have indeed hidden them, but why should we give them to you?"

Hearing this, Zhong Fei said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, hey, it's a bit too much to say that! It's obvious that I brought your highness here with great difficulty, and now I don't even want to read a book that you don't need. Give it to me!"

Grand Master Han took a step forward, shook his head and said: "It's not that I don't want to give it to you. Originally, these classics belonged to the Jinting Kingdom, and we were just trustees. Now that His Royal Highness has returned, naturally these classics must be handed over to the prince." His Highness handles it."

As he spoke, he looked at King Lanling. King Lanling didn't speak, but nodded noncommittally.

Zhong Fei heard Taishi Han's words, turned his head to look at King Lanling, and said, "What about you? Give me this book, do you have any opinions?"

King Lanling shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly: "It has been thousands of years since no one has found the Five Thunder Drum. As a matter of fact, it is really useless to me. If you want it, you can take it."

King Lanling also understands that Zhong Fei is so obsessed with obtaining this classic, it must be because someone around him has found and awakened the power of the Five Thunders and Shocking Drums. 'The Sikong Zhen.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't help the people in Chang'an who he regards as a mortal hostile force, but at this time he has learned the truth of the year, and understands that hating Chang'an and the Great Wall is just a misunderstanding, besides, Zhong Fei really has kindness to him, so simply letting him take this useless tome can be regarded as apologizing for what he has done for so many years.

"Then dig it out!" After looking at each other, several veteran officials made a decision.

Afterwards, several veteran officials came to the backyard of the house with a small shovel in hand, intending to dig out the buried classics.

Zhong Fei looked at the physiques of the three who seemed to be blown down by the wind, and said helplessly: "Grandfathers, please stop doing anything. You haven't dug out anything else, so send yourself in first... "

"Young man, how do you talk! When I went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, you were not born yet!" General Duan said angrily, throwing the shovel in his hand.

"Just kidding, just kidding, haha..." Zhong Fei couldn't help laughing awkwardly when he saw a few people getting angry, "I'm worried about the health of the old men. Let's be young!"

What Zhong Fei didn't expect was that after hearing his words, the three senior ministers unanimously threw the shovels in their hands and said, "Young man, that's right, it's up to you!"

"Old Han, is your boiled water ready? Hurry up and make tea for His Royal Highness!"

"Okay, let's go now! Brother Fu, where is your treasured tea, take it out!"

"I'll get it right away! By the way, old Duan, your legs and feet are pretty good. Go and buy some refreshments. Remember, buy expensive ones. Your Highness must enjoy the best!"

The three old men were about to walk into the house, which made Zhong Fei behind them speechless, and then said: "Even if you don't plan to do it, you have to tell me where it is buried! Such a big place, I can't dig it all over again!"

Hearing this, Grand Master Han turned his head and said: "That's a good relationship, we just plan to plant some melons and fruits, you can go through the ground..."

After finishing speaking, looking at Zhong Fei's completely darkened face, he shook his head and said, "Oh, you young man, why are you so ignorant of teasing!"

"From your current position, go three steps forward and just dig down!"

Chapter 177 Solving the problem of King Lanling

"From where you are now, just take three steps forward and dig down!" After leaving these words, the three old men pushed each other back to the room.

Zhong Fei looked at the two shovels in his hand, shook his head helplessly, and threw them to the ground.

"I'm the god of rocks, why do I have to do things like digging myself?" Zhong Fei said angrily.

After finishing speaking, Zhong Fei felt the land under his feet, and sure enough, under the ground not far in front of him, he felt a bit of disharmony with the rock element.

"It's here!" A gleam flashed in Zhong Fei's eyes, and then the Elemental Combat Skill Rock Ridge broke through the ground, pushing out the box it had buried.

"That's it?" Zhong Fei reached out and took off the box on the top of the rock ridge, and said with a look of disdain.

The three veterans also heard the movement in the yard at this time, and couldn't help but ran out again: "What's the situation? This movement.....Did you turn the yard over!"

Immediately, the three of them saw the box in Zhong Fei's hand, Grand Master Han was dumbfounded and said, "So fast?"

Zhong Fei straightened his hair, and said coolly: "There is no way, strength lies here."

"Since you are so strong, why don't you help us turn over the land!" General Duan thought for a while, and then said: "These two old guys always say that I am a general, and it's outrageous for me to do such physical work!"

"Family, who knows..."

"Okay, okay!" Zhong Fei hurriedly stopped General Duan: "Don't teach me about watermelon sticks!"

"What are watermelon sticks?" General Duan was a little confused, but he took two steps forward and held Zhong Fei's hand: "Good man!"

Zhong Fei quickly broke free from the held hand, and said, "Now, are you guys going to find out the classics about the five thunders and drums yourself, or should I do it?"

Upon hearing this, General Duan quickly took the box from Zhong Fei's hand, and said, "This is my Jin Ting Kingdom's secret, so I won't bother you to do it!"

As he said that, General Duan carried the box into the house like he was guarding against thieves, and went to find King Lanling to open the box.

"Your Highness, this is all the classics we have collected after we have collected the entire site of the Jinting Kingdom. Please have a look." General Duan smiled and handed the box to King Lanling.

King Lanling was stunned for a moment, then took the box in silence, stroked the pattern covered with mud on the box, and then said quietly: "This box..."

"It was used by other countries when they offered tribute to the Jinting Kingdom's royal family." Grand Master Han continued, "We found it while searching the ruins of the imperial palace, so we used it."

King Lanling looked at the familiar box in front of him, and couldn't help but recall the powerful Jinting Kingdom enshrined by the kingdoms in the cloud. After a long silence, he opened the box.

Although the box was covered with mud, the classics inside the box were intact, and even a faint scent of ink could be smelled.

"I plan to look through these classics one by one, so... I can't give them to you for the time being." King Lanling took out a classic and said to Zhong Fei.

"Your Highness, don't you plan to watch it?" Grand Master Han asked in surprise.

"I didn't intend to see it, so it's better to let the truth be buried in the ground like this." King Lanling said softly: "But since it has been brought to light, let's take a look!"

"After reading it, except for the classic that Zhong Fei needs, the rest... burn it! Staying in this world is just a thought after all, it's better to cut off the past completely."

"Your Highness is open-minded, very human." General Duan complimented: "However, Your Highness, I have wanted to ask you since I saw you. What is your mask..."

King Lanling gently stroked the mask on his face, and said: "I used to think that I would walk in darkness for the rest of my life, so I made an oath that I would not take off the mask until I succeeded in revenge."

"At this point, the previous oath seems like a joke... This mask has been with me for so many years, and I'm used to it, so let it be."

When Uncle Fu saw such a sad King Lanling, he also sighed empathetically.
