By the time Xing Jie and the others returned to the ground, the whole thing seemed to have an ending here.

It looks smooth, but there are still many puzzles to solve.

Why didn't it work in the end when there was a perfect defense?

If the holy tree was activated at the beginning, then under the triple killing machine, even if Xing Jie and his uncle joined forces to break through there, it would basically be an unlikely thing.

But why just use a very simple Luban lock as a defensive mechanism?

Could it be that the designers of the mechanism would think that no one could really unlock something like a toy like a Luban lock? Obviously, this is impossible.

You must know that the cube composed of the Luban lock has thirty-six seals, which represents the thirty-six top people in this army.

And we all know it.

When you tell a secret to another person, the secret can no longer be called a secret. There is a high 80 percent chance that it will be compromised.

When there are thirty-six people in possession of this secret, then there is no need to say anything.

There must have been an unknown thing that happened back then.

It stands to reason that after the last person has placed the coffin, he should activate the array in the cemetery and the sacred tree on the top level, but it seems that the last person did not do this.

Why?

Did they rebel or did they flee with a large amount of gold and silver?

It's possible, but where did the last person go?

Who is he?

Could it be a small soldier? But judging from the situation at the scene, it seems unlikely, after all, even Xu Fu was lying in the sarcophagus with immortal medicine in his mouth in the end, which shows how cruel the First World War was back then.

Could it be or simply a general's guard, or even Xu Fu's personal guard?

This is possible, after all, they are absolutely trusted, and they can be ordered in a desperate situation. After all, for Xu Fu or them, the personal guard or escort is the part!

Don't underestimate the ethics of the ancients, especially for the people of the pre-Qin period. There is a movie that I think everyone has heard of even if they haven't seen it, called Zhao's Orphan. I won't dwell on the plot of the story, I just want to say that this kind of thing that seemed unthinkable to us was the norm at that time.

But why did such loyal subordinates not carry out Xu Fu's last words?

"What's so hard to guess about this, and there is another kind of person you may have forgotten, right?" said Han Zhongxuan, handing over a glass of beer with a cigar in his mouth.

Xing Jie pursed his lips and sat on the recliner, watching Clara and Lilia once again entangled with the five people fighting there, and there was a sense of helplessness in his eyes.

Indeed, there is another kind of person he forgets.

This kind of person has always existed, on the surface, he is a die-hard fan of Xu Fu's generals, and he is absolutely brave and invincible when he fights. But he has another identity behind his back, that is, Yuan Hou.

The so-called Yuan Hou, to put it bluntly, is the embroidered messenger in the hands of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, the plum blossom internal guard in the hands of Wu Zetian, the factory guard in the Ming Dynasty, and the sticky pole in the Yongzheng period. are all those who are directly responsible to the emperor and secretly supervise the officials.

Although the First Emperor gave Xu Fu the greatest trust, Yingzheng was the emperor after all, and it was normal for the emperor to guard against his subordinates behind his back, which was not too exaggerated. After all, at that time, as long as there was a slightly hierarchical official, it was indispensable.

Now that I think about it, the reason why Xu Fu handed over the last step to such a person must be for the back of the soldiers. After all, although they fought for their lives, they still finished this matter, so the relatives and families of these soldiers who are far away in Xianyang should be able to be free after all.

As for why the last step was not carried out, it should be obvious from this point of view.

Either he died on the sea where he returned, or when this Yuan Hou returned to Xianyang with great difficulty, it was possible that the First Emperor had died in the Xingtai sand dunes.

"Then you mean that the secret of the whole thing is likely to be buried in the Mausoleum of the First Emperor?"

"Yes and what? No, what then? Can you still dig up the Mausoleum of the First Emperor? Don't think about it so much, just have fun in time. It's just a secret, a secret from more than 2,000 years ago. What can it be? It's not that without this secret, the earth won't turn in circles. Let's go, I'm in a bad mood, and I can't say that I have gained anything from this excavation. ”

"Hehe, you're a hypocrisy. Although you didn't dig up anything in the ruins, you gained a lot. Bird-like beasts, huge amounts of gold, are very valuable things. Not to mention the ten diamonds you sold, another 100 million in the account. The speed at which you make money makes me red-eyed. ”

Xing Jie looked back at Han Zhongxuan with a look of disgust.

"When did the dignified Han Zhongxuan start to worry about a little bit of stuff? If you feel red-eyed, why don't you take it out like this, how about I take out 50 million in exchange for the three crystals you found this time?"

Han Zhongxuan glanced at Xing Jie unexpectedly, reached out and took out a dark blue crystal about the same size as a diamond-shaped lens from his backpack.

"Do you know what it is? How about we join forces if we're interested?"

"Not very good. I'm not in a good mood right now and need to take a break. Let's talk about it later, come and drink with me when you have time, you know where. ”

After speaking, Xing Jie stood up and was about to walk towards the rats, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Han Zhongxuan. Looking at the crystal in his hand, Xing Jie's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Why?"

"No, I always think this thing is more useful in your hands. It's my investment, and if I find it, how about 50% each?"

Xing Jie thought for a long time and stretched out his hand.

High-five.

"Deal!"

The five of them had already fought with Clara Lilia to the point of white heat, Cheng Yu and Lilia were sitting on both sides of the small table, and the tequila that Xing Jie got was quickly killed by the two of them, and Xing Jie was distressed. These are all a bunch of losers, and such a good wine should be tasted carefully, but they spoiled it like this.

"Mouse, where's Basan?"

"I accompanied the old man to Paris, saying that there was a meeting there. Brother Jie, what are you going to do after this incident?"

"Take a break for a while, if you have anything to do, just go to the castle and find me, I've been in retreat for a while. ”

"Well, is there anything I need to report?"

"Leave Lao Li for me, there is something I need him to be my deputy. In fact, my father-in-law is the most suitable person, but he is stared at to death, and he can't leave at all. ”

"Understand, I'll just do it. And it was decided that Ahua's kid will be handed over to you for the next time. We need to keep your grandfather safe, and we can't leave at all. ”

"Hmm. ”
