He trembled all over and finally realized the reason for all this, the cause of Lao Liao's death!
……
Chen Duo looked at Zhang Taichu with relief, and suddenly smiled again. Then he closed his eyes and leaned forward, wanting to let the sword tip penetrate his forehead.
But the scratching feeling beside her leg made her open her eyes again. She looked down and saw the whimpering puppy, who seemed to be aware of what was going to happen next and was anxiously scratching her with its two paws.
Chen Duo looked sad and reached out to touch the dog's head. "Chen Junyan, stop making trouble. Goodbye."
Zhang Taichu spoke again: "You don't have to die. There are always things in this world that you are still pursuing, such as this unforgettable Chen Junyan. Where is he now? Don't you want to know?"
"You spend the first twenty years of your life in pain, not understanding the meaning of everything in this world. This is normal. After all, how can you know what is written in a book if you have never opened it?"
“You have to open it and experience it yourself to understand it, and the meaning is created by you in the process.”
"So, do you have to die?"
Chen Duo was stunned, as if she was thinking seriously about Zhang Taichu's words. She looked at Chen Junyan who was stroking her, feeling the moisture and temperature of his tongue licking her hand, and murmured, "But I can't live anymore. Every day this poison is in my body, it is tearing my spirit and body apart. I'm in so much pain, it's getting more and more painful..."
When Lao Meng heard this, he sobbed and cried. He had never heard Chen Duo say these things before, and this was the first time he heard her voice.
Zhang Taichu smiled and said, "As long as you want to live, I will naturally find a way."
"The Medicine Fairy will plant a poison on you, and Nadutong will help you get rid of it. But I have a way to let you truly and completely control your own poison."
As he spoke, he flipped his palm and a thick ancient book suddenly appeared in his palm. He said to Chen Duo, "I have a technique called the Gu Refining and Returning to the Origin Technique. After I slightly modified it, it will be perfectly suited to your physique."
"As long as you practice this technique, you won't have to worry about the poison backlash. You can actually benefit from it and strengthen your body. Going a step further, you can completely eradicate the drawbacks of the poison."
"How about it, do you want to learn? Follow me and I'll teach you."
He found this ancient book from the system. It was a technique that just happened to suit Chen Duo's physique. He glanced through it. Although it was a little obscure and difficult to understand, and it was not consistent with the Qi refining method of the people in this dimension, it was not a big problem. As long as he made some slight modifications, it would be a completely powerful Gu technique!
Hearing this, Chen Duo blinked her eyes and stared blankly at the ancient book lying in Zhang Taichu's palm...
……
at the same time.
Somewhere in a dark waterway, there were lights illuminating the water surface, extending all the way to the rock walls on all sides. There were several motorboats flying across the water at an incredibly fast speed.
There are hundreds of thousands of mountains in the southwest, with strange rocks and cliffs, numerous underground caves, and various water systems. This is one of the least known ones.
Just a hundred meters underground, Qu Tong stood on the motorboat with her arms folded, looking down at the water, feeling the whistling sound blowing past her ears, and said lightly: "Falling Dragon Road, Falling Dragon Road, could there really have been an earth dragon that dug a passage here?"
She talked to herself, and naturally no one responded. Only the whistling sound in her ears became more and more intense. This waterway led directly to a place hundreds of miles away, and was much faster than the land route. In just a breath, they crossed over a dozen mountains. However, the underground waterway was also dangerous, and only a group of strange people like them dared to walk in it without any scruples.
"Zhang Taichu."
Qu Tong narrowed her eyes. Whenever she thought of this name, she always felt upset. It was the other party's sudden appearance that completely disrupted her plan. And that kind of person was even more difficult to calculate, very difficult to deal with, and impossible to deal with.
Even if they met tonight, all she could do was to avoid him according to the pre-arrangement.
She added: "Mountains and rivers will meet each other, I look forward to seeing you again."
On the other side, Shenzhenyuan City.
In a special ward in a high-rise building.
There was a man in a hospital gown, lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread out, with an oxygen mask on his mouth. What was different was that his limbs were firmly fixed with iron shackles.
A nurse in a white coat came in pushing a cart. After checking the list, Qi appeared in her palm. After feeling the man up and down, she ticked the word "Yin Qing" on a thick notebook. Then she skillfully opened the drawer of the cart, took out various medicines, injected them into the infusion bottle, and hung up the man.
This is a powerful medicine specially designed for extraordinary people, which can quickly restore various functions.
After finishing these daily tasks, the nurse turned around with an indifferent expression and walked out again with the cart. The corridor was very long, and there were many strange people like Yin Qing who needed her treatment.
……
Hearing the sound of the door frame banging after the nurse left, Yin Qing turned pale and stared blankly at the ceiling without saying a word the whole time. He felt the handcuffs locking him around and felt despair in his heart.
In the last battle at the base, he was seriously injured by Zhang Lingyu. His bones were broken, his organs were failing, and he was half-dead. He was taken in by Nadutong and has been trapped there until now, like a stray dog. When he gets better, he will go to the so-called "Company Alien Court" to stand trial.
Yin Qing felt pain in his heart. When he thought of Zhang Lingyu's face, he felt so angry that his teeth itched. At the same time, Qu Tong's appearance appeared in his mind involuntarily, and he felt some comfort.
"President, you will definitely come to save me, right? I pray that you will come soon..."
From the beginning to the end, he had always been devout to his president, just like a believer. This feeling was strange, even involuntary, and hard to explain.
He was thinking, and suddenly he felt a pain in his chest. The pain came suddenly and quickly spread throughout his body, as if thousands of iron needles were piercing his flesh repeatedly at the same time, causing veins on his forehead to bulge. His feet, bound with iron chains, were tightly gripping the edge of the bed, and cold sweat broke out all over his body.
The severe pain came suddenly and went away suddenly. Yin Qing opened his eyes wide and felt that he had lost consciousness all over his body. His vision began to blur. There was no pain at all, and even his heart seemed to have stopped beating.
Then he died, with his eyes wide open and lifeless.
Chapter 210 Volunteers for the Excavation and Protection of Underground Cultural Relics
At the same time when Yin Qing died, the same thing happened in all the branches of Nadutong in various parts of China. One by one, the small leaders of Yaoxing Society died suddenly...
No sleep for one night.
Until the rooster crows, the world becomes clear.
On the path outside Biyou Village, rows of large trucks are parked, all of them have the Naduotong logo on them.
"I remember there was only a narrow mountain road when we came here. How did these big trucks get in?" Zhuge Qing, with a bruised face, muttered, with an ice pack on the corner of his eye.
Zhang Chulan on the side said: "The masters who know everything are all experienced drivers. They can take you to the top even of Mount Everest."
Although this sounded like a joke, it was actually a kind of affirmation, causing the driver of the nearest truck to smile knowingly and gesture with a hint of pride on his face.
In just one night, they had completed the registration and detention of personnel, as well as the recovery of sensitive materials. They also set about demolishing the entire village, erasing all traces of it, even capturing the guarding stray dogs, leaving only a bare patch of grass.
At this moment, on this bare lawn, everyone was saying their final farewells.
"Hao Yi, the head of the Southwest Region, pays homage to Master Taichu."
A middle-aged man with an amiable face bowed and greeted Zhang Taichu respectfully. Beside him stood Wang Zhenqiu, who looked dishonest.
Zhang Taichu nodded and said, "It's troublesome. In addition, these people from Biyou Village can be treated leniently. Those who should be punished should be punished, those who should be educated should be educated, and those who should be released should be released."
"Those Yaoxing Society remnants should not be tolerated. Beat them when necessary and kill them when necessary. Try to extract some useful information from them. Report any situation to me at any time."
Then he turned his gaze to Wang Zhenqiu, who looked eager, and said, "Don't even think about coming to Longhu Mountain, kid. I don't need lackeys around me. Do you understand?"
Hao Yi and Wang Zhenqiu nodded immediately, but the latter was still unwilling, and pouted pitifully, "Master, don't you really want to take me in? It's okay to be the youngest."
"Qiu'er, I may not be good at other things, but I'm hardworking, diligent, and good at serving others. I..."
Zhang Taichu raised his eyebrows and interrupted, "If you keep pestering me, I will beat the teeth in your mouth until they are like your master's, with only two teeth left."
Wang Zhenqiu shut up immediately, but his big, expressive eyes were still expressing his strong desire to be a fence-sitter, which made Hao Yi, the person in charge standing nearby, look even more embarrassed.
Zhang Taichu chuckled, and gave Hao Yi a few more instructions. Finally, he said goodbye to Chen Duo and Ma Xianhong who were standing behind him, "These two kids will stay with me. I think the company has no objection."
Hao Yi patted his chest and assured: "Director Zhao has already given instructions. Everything will be based on your opinion."
Zhang Taichu smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Xia Liuqing and Mei Jinfeng. His gaze lingered on their joined hands for a second, and he joked, "You two are not young anymore, you should think about starting a family and building a career. Why don't you be together? Maybe you can have a child in your old age and be happy."
Xia Liuqing, with a bruised face and nose, grinned, revealing his two lonely teeth, and said with a chuckle: "Thank you for your good words, Immortal."
After what happened last night, Jin Feng's attitude towards him finally changed. The relationship between them advanced to another big step. Now they can even hold hands in person. In this way, perhaps the day when he can hold Xiao Xiaoxia in his arms will be on his agenda in his lifetime.
As for the extraordinary people, even if they are in their seventies or eighties, they are still very strong!
Mei Jinfeng, who was standing by, glanced at the giggling Xia Liuqing, then shook her hand away in embarrassment and awkwardness, and bowed to Zhang Taichu in thanks, "Old woman, I have done many wrong things in my life. I was disrespectful to you back then. Now that I think about it, I feel very guilty. I apologize to you again."
Zhang Taichu waved his hand, "These are all trivial matters, don't worry about them."
Back then, Mei Jinfeng was also one of the thirty-five people who swore brotherhood with Wu Gensheng. She was also his little fangirl and even more love-brained than Xia Liuqing. When he was leaving Longhu Mountain, they had an unpleasant conflict, but he was calmed down after a few slaps.
The "fierce and pitiful" Xia Liuqing, who was still in love with Mei Jinfeng at the time, came to her house immediately after hearing the news, but he became obedient after being slapped a few times.
That's how they met.
Now, more than seventy years have passed in a flash, the grudges have faded, and only the emotion of recalling the past remains.
……
With the rumbling sound of the car, the large car drove away in a roar, raising a trail of dust, leaving only Zhang Taichu and his group.
Behind him were Zhang Lingyu and his wife, the duo of Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao, Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye who disliked each other, Chen Duo and Ma Xianhong, and Xiao Zizai who lowered his head, exactly ten people.
They were kept by Zhang Taichu's side, but they were not quite clear about the subsequent arrangements for the real person.
Ma Xianhong, who was recruited, spoke first and asked tentatively: "Master Taichu, what are your plans next?"
Zhang Taichu smiled mysteriously and said, "Of course it's something you little kids haven't experienced before."
"Have you ever dug up a grave? I'll take you there!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell into silence.
Ma Xianhong's mouth twitched: "Dig a grave? Dig a grave?"
Zhang Taichu nodded and said seriously, "Yes, it is an awesome tomb of an alien. Perhaps we will gain a lot from this trip."
Everyone's expressions became even more exciting.
"So, you want to take us to, to, to rob a tomb?"
Ma Xianhong looked somewhat embarrassed, thinking that what the Immortal meant by helping him regain his memory - was that tomb robbing?
Zhang Chulan, who was standing by, immediately stood up and said righteously, "Brother Ma, what you said is wrong. How can what Master led us to do be called tomb robbing? It is clearly a volunteer activity for "Underground Cultural Relics Excavation and Protection". It is a public welfare activity!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but complain in their hearts. However, Zhuge Qing, who had been beaten black and blue by Wang Ye all night, immediately showed a flattering smile and hugged his thigh and said, "Chu Lan is right. May I ask, Master, whose grave do you want to dig, ugh, open? How powerful is that stranger? Is he a royal relative or a supreme leader?"
Zhang Taichu said happily: "Oh, you are familiar with that person too. The grave he dug is the grave of your ancestor Zhuge Kongming."
Zhuge Qing was struck by lightning, took three steps back, and said in a lost voice: "My ancestors?"
Zhang Taichu nodded, took out an ancient animal skin book from his arms, waved it and said, "Yes, your father personally asked me to take you with me to dig up the tombs of your ancestors."
Chapter 211 Feng Shui, No Peace on Longhu Mountain
Looking at the ancient book in Zhang Taichu's hand, Zhuge Qing's face became even more confused, but at the same time he was sure that what the immortal said was true.
He was very familiar with this book. Ever since he was a child, he had often seen his grandfather in the study, and he would read the book whenever he had nothing to do. However, the old man was very mysterious and refused to let him even take a look.
So until now, he has never seen the contents of the book with his own eyes.
"This book was given to me by your father. He said it records the speculations of your Zhuge family over the generations regarding the specific locations of their ancestors' tombs."
"I don't understand what's written inside. I thought you and Xiao Yezi should be more knowledgeable about numerology, so I'll take it and read more."
As Zhang Taichu spoke, he handed the ancient book to Zhuge Qing. The latter's eyes sparkled as he took it carefully, feeling its heavy weight. He then reached out and gently stroked the simple animal skin cover, only to see that there was not a single word written on it, making it more like an anonymous notebook.
People around came over curiously, and Zhuge Qing did not hide from them. He gently opened the cover with his slender fingers and casually flipped through a few pages.
The entire ancient book is sewn together with unknown animal skins. It has stood for thousands of years without rotting, and the text is clear. The first half covers astronomy, geomancy, mathematics, and there are also many illustrations and strange symbols. They are all authentic works left by the heads of the family through the generations. Unlike the common goods circulating on the market, it is the unique inheritance of the Zhuge family.
From the dozens of pages onwards, the handwriting becomes different. I think it was left behind by the great masters of the family from generation to generation. It is full of various annotations and personal opinions. If you look closely, they are all about the geography of tombs.
Everyone looked at the obscure knowledge with clear stupidity in their eyes. After looking for a long time, they only understood a few mountain landmark maps and contour plane maps. So they withdrew their gazes in boredom and began to chatter about the legendary stories about Zhuge Liang.
Only Wang Ye, Zhuge Qing and Ma Xianhong were left. They stared at the contents of the book as if possessed, with expressions changing constantly and becoming excited.
A layman may not understand the value of this book, but for those who are familiar with this field, it is an invaluable treasure!
"I was wondering why my dad always hides from me and reads this book secretly. I guess he is shy and embarrassed."
Zhuge Qing touched his chin, turned over another scroll, stared at the passage he was interested in, and studied the content word by word. "They are all about Feng Shui and divination, but they contain a lot of treasures."
The so-called Feng Shui has been passed down since thousands of years ago. It is closely related to the art of divination. To put it simply, it is the art of observing Qi, mountains and stars, and finding dragons and locating their positions. From ancient times to the present, it has served the masters of dynasties and has been developed and promoted. Until today, it has penetrated into the daily lives of ordinary people.
For this reason, the art of Feng Shui and divination is always considered not to be worthy of being discussed in some Qimen families.
However, this ancient book passed down from generation to generation by the Zhuge family contains a large amount of Feng Shui and divination principles. What’s more important is that the predecessors who studied these people had a clear purpose - that is to find the tomb of their ancestor, Zhuge Kongming!
"I was curious before, why Zhuge Gong was so generous, inviting me to visit the tomb of your ancestor Zhuge Kongming, and even patted his chest, saying that there were many treasures in it, including the Eight Diagrams, elixirs, natural treasures, mythical beasts and birds..."
"In the end, he himself didn't even know where the tomb was... Well, whatever, since I'm kind-hearted, I'll take you guys along to have a look around and gain some experience."
As Zhang Taichu spoke, he put his hands behind his back, took a step forward, picked a direction, and walked leisurely.
Zhuge Qing came back to his senses, suppressed his agitated mind, solemnly put away the ancient book, put it in his pocket, and followed the crowd.
Led by Zhang Taichu, a group of people marched towards the tomb of Wu Hou, whose location was still unknown!
……
at the same time.
On Mount Longhu, the sky was just beginning to turn pale.
