Chapter 37: Heartbeat

"What are they doing?"

Luo Zi looked at the strange scene in front of him, raised his eyebrows lightly, and asked with his lips open. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

“…… Sacrifice. A childish voice came from the air and replied, "Seven Star Immortal Array...... It's not just about protecting those who are in the eye of the array......"

"You still need to absorb enough energy...... in order to fully activate and achieve immortality......"

Sacrifice? Luo Zi raised his eyebrows.

"These forty-nine coffins alone...... Inadequate...... The war slaves who were originally going to be sacrificed because of the collapse of the dynasty...... Scattered in a hurry......"

"So whenever someone invades the mausoleum, the ministers who wake up will calculate the number and use it to sacrifice and maintain the ...... of the great array."

Luo Zi listened to the young emperor's explanation, thought about it, and was sure in his heart, I'm afraid this is the main reason why until six hundred years, the young emperor has not awakened, and even the zombies have only woken up seven.

Looking at the number of sacrifices, they are almost seven percent of the number of tomb robbers.

The imperial mausoleum should be a special type of tomb that has been inherently concerned by all forces.

Because of the jewels inside, the antiques inside, and the ink treasures of the previous generations of literati inside...... Just one piece is enough for an ordinary family of four to be rich and worry-free for a lifetime!

It can be seen how much weight its rich "remuneration" has!

In this way, it stands to reason that there are so many "blood aura" to provide to the burial chamber, even if the large array still does not meet the sufficient conditions to open, then the zombies should almost all wake up.

Because maybe not only outsiders will covet this tomb, but even the emperors of the country (similar to Cao Cao, etc.) will consider whether to open the tomb of their ancestors at the critical moment of Sheji.

But now, not to mention the opening of the Great Array, even the zombies guarding only seven have woken up - until just now, there were only eleven.

Why? This is the Emperor's Mausoleum!

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the tomb of the Empress Dowager Cixi was opened by the warlords, although it was not opened by the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, but after her tomb was opened, the soldiers of the army called the "Reform Army" who were actually "tomb robbers" were all full of hats, and some even poured out the bullets in the cowhide bags filled with ammunition to fill the South China Sea pearls on the ground......

After opening the main coffin of the main burial chamber, the non-commissioned officers in military uniforms even mercilessly threw aside the corpses they thought were in the way, trampled on them, and took away all the treasures.

It can be seen how much people ignore the so-called royal tombs when changing the dynasty.

And at that time, Emperor Puyi of the Qing Dynasty was still the emperor in the restoration of the puppet Manchukuo, so Cixi was not yet called the "Empress Dowager of the former dynasty", and even her mausoleum would be forcibly broken by people in an open group, not to mention the mausoleum of the former emperor.

After all, generally speaking, such emperors' mausoleums (such as the Ming Emperor's Tombs) that are not officially incorporated into the imperial tombs have been "explored" clean in about one or two hundred years, and in a short term, it is possible to be "swept away" in twenty or thirty years.

But now more than 600 years have passed, Luo Zi now looks up, and can see that the decoration of the tomb is still neat, whether it is those precious and exquisite burial goods, palace bell musical instruments, or the large and small bright doors and secret doors around the main tomb in front of him, and the white jade steps, they have not been damaged at all, or even spotless.

It's incredible.

It's probably not just the zombies...... Luo Zi thought.

"They are preparing to sacrifice the essence qi to provide strength for the formation...... "Maybe it is because of the essence of this group of people to nourish the weak soul, the voice of the young emperor is much more vivid than the last time he came, and it is not as weak as when Luo Zi came last time, like a goose.

The Young Emperor's voice then explained.

"After all, before I awakened, there was no way to directly absorb the essence of ordinary people, so I could only rely on the formation to absorb and maintain my body and soul......"

"So the ministers had no choice but to protect me, preferring that the blood and qi would be dissipated, and finally had to retreat into the coffin to sleep again, rather than let the formation stop ......."

"Originally, all this situation was not so difficult, but one night a hundred years ago, the dragon qi was suddenly cut off, and in the past hundred years, my soul has almost returned to the underworld several times......

Cut off dragon qi overnight?

Luo Zi frowned and thought about this history-

-- After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty occupied the Central Plains mainland, because it was a foreign race, and even more brutal customs entry behaviors such as the Yangzhou Massacre, the Qing Dynasty entered the customs until the late Kangxi Emperor, and there were many anti-Qing and Ming organizations and regimes such as the Southern Ming Dynasty, the Zheng clan in Taiwan, and the White Lotus Sect, and even after Qianlong, these Han people's restoration of sight was still active, but it was more secretive.

Could it be that these are the reasons why the dragon qi can still be fed back to the young emperor in front of him for five hundred years? Luo Zi thought.

So maybe the truncation of dragon qi is because of the Republic of China, right?!

Due to the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, the Treaty of Beijing and other events accelerated the demise of the Qing Dynasty's feudal regime, and finally the Republic of China was established under the leadership of Mr. Sun.

After all, when people have civil rights, it is difficult to gather people to think about "regaining sight".

It is estimated that this is the reason why the dragon qi that has been maintaining the young emperor will be wiped out overnight.

The more Luo Zi thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.

Maybe that's why I had the opportunity to come here.

Luo Zi looked at the zombies in front of him surrounding the corpses piled together, their hands hidden under their wide sleeves stretched out at the same time, their black and purple nails suddenly grew, their mouths opened, their fangs exposed, hideous and terrifying......

"Roar-" The zombies roared at the same time.

A bizarre scene appeared.

The roar of the zombies formed waves of visible ripples and crashed into the circle, and the bodies of the corpses, which were originally composed of flesh and bones, gradually melted like the first snow, and then from the grooves on the ground, a trace of golden "qi" climbed up, and finally all of them hugged the hillock formed by the corpses, obviously it was just "qi", but Luo Zi could feel that the trace of "qi" was pressing the corpses down......

After three breaths, Luo Zi could clearly see that there was a trace of milky white mist, which the young emperor called "spirit", along the groove on the formation map, swimming quickly like a spirit snake, climbing the wall, and passing through the forty-nine coffins, I don't know if it was refined by the secondary coffin, and then turned into the same "qi" as the previous golden yellow "qi", and then gradually converged, along the eight-sided chains that hung the white jade coffin of the Nine Dragons, and finally converged at the heart of the young emperor lying in the Nine Dragons coffin.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Quietly, Luo Zi clearly heard the sound of his heartbeat.

Luo Zi turned his head suddenly, staring at the young emperor's heart, the voice came from there!
