Chapter 229: It's hard to bring a team with a large number of people
As the earliest discoverer of the Dragon Emperor's Mausoleum, Yu Yuxing took the initiative to invite Ying into the advance force. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info was born in the imperial capital and is the grand duke of the empress faction, Ou Yuxing can be said to have been branded with the empress faction since he was born. Coupled with his outstanding ability, no bad record, excellent performance, and sufficient qualifications, there was nothing wrong with him asking to participate in the mausoleum expedition.
Many people envy Ou Yuxing for being born in a good family, and many people can only envy him for entering the mausoleum, thinking that no matter how bad his luck is, as long as he brings back a little bit of gain, he can get unimaginable rewards. In everyone's eyes, the former dynasty was so powerful that no one thought that he would fall, and if it weren't for the mysterious disappearance of the last young emperor of the previous dynasty, the current dynasty name would definitely be Great Qin rather than Great Qing.
Although the empress inherited the entire dynasty, many people know that she does not really control the clothes of the previous dynasty, and in the end, the royal family that has not been recognized by the mausoleum, even if he has royal blood, it will not help, the mausoleum values qualifications rather than blood, which can be said to give others a glimmer of hope.
What kind of prince will Xiangning have? This is a famous saying that accompanied the mausoleum, at first people thought it was a slogan against **** and against dictatorship, but then gradually found that this was telling the true essence of imperial power - only those who pass the test can have the right to inherit. The royal family is just an ordinary person with excellent talents, who take advantage of their monopoly on the opportunity to try, and send a group of trialists every fifty years.
Don't look at the number of times it is dispatched, it can be once in fifty years, and it can reach two times in a hundred years. It seems like a lot, but there are very few people who can really pass it, and it is extremely normal for no one to pass a trial after a trial.
Many secrets about the previous dynasty are open secrets within today's high-level people, which is also the fundamental reason why the forces of the county kings, big families, consortia, and other forces are so crazy to get involved. As long as it is recognized, it means that it gets half of the entire empire. And in order to consolidate her rule, the empress will choose to marry each other. The empress needs a husband, and the empire needs an emperor.
The enthusiasm was quickly extinguished by the cold water of reality, if the statue guards guarding the gate were blocked by Xian Wenxuan and his team, and the young princes, princesses, and little princes did not deeply understand the danger of the mausoleum, then after entering the mausoleum, they finally knew what the journey of death was.
Believing that he was well prepared, Beat Yuxing found that his preparation was far from enough.
At first, the mechanism was very simple, nothing more than a knife, a sharp blade, a trap, and so on, which everyone can imagine as a "pediatric" trap. Things changed when they entered a vast playground.
It's hard to imagine what it would be like to have tens of thousands of terracotta warriors and horses lined up in the "heavens and the world". This is not an exaggeration, but the real thing. The terracotta warriors and horses are suspended in the air, arranged from the sky to the "underground". Each "soldier" looks different, and you won't find two terracotta warriors with the same face. Different from the terracotta warriors and horses in the traditional sense, in addition to the lifelike appearance of these terracotta warriors, every piece of weapons and equipment on their bodies is a real thing, not to mention the traditional cold weapons, they are all real! I can't imagine what it would be like if they could move. In particular, the armor worn by these terracotta warriors and horses is the appearance of the ancient Imperial Forest Army, only the level of the Earth Pole Realm can become the Royal Forest Army, think about what kind of picture will the army composed of nearly 200,000 or 300,000 Earth Pole Realm powerhouses be?
The picture is so beautiful, no one rushed to imagine that the entire empire could gather so many Earth Extreme Realm powerhouses. Not only that, all weapons and equipment are orange epic, which is by no means something that money can do, and the conditions for creating an epic equipment are harsh, the technical requirements are high, and the completion of such a massive project is not something that can be completed with resources. Seeing these weapons and equipment, no one doubts the heritage and strength of the previous dynasty.
There are not only "starry sky" hanging overhead, but there seem to be many Yunzhou battleships, because the distance is too far, the vision is too blurred, no one can see clearly, but that unique block and huge shape, what is it if it is not the bow of the ship? Curiously, why did the bows of these ships go vertically down? Why is it not a normal side stop?
Something overhead feels extremely distant, thick darkness obstructs vision, and no one wants to venture into this dangerous ancient tomb, and if something is touched, who can guarantee that it will not lead to unpredictable consequences?
No one has forgotten the primary goal, and for the things above the head are priceless, everyone can only endure ** and continue to explore.
Almost all the buildings here are suspended in the air, without any pillars supporting the ground, making people feel as if they have stepped into the heavenly palace.
The terracotta warriors and horses suspended in the sky are like heavenly soldiers, and the bottom is mercury for hundreds of rivers and seas, and the machine is instilled. The top of the tomb is inlaid with night pearls, precious stones, agate, jadeite...... All the jewels and gems that can be found in the world can be seen here. Just taking away one-ten-thousandth of the gems and gems here can bring three generations of grandchildren to live a life of luxury.
In front of them is a long crystal bridge, the wall is clear and translucent, giving people a feeling of fragility but actually very strong. Lamps burned on both sides of the bridge deck, and if no one took care of them, they would have burned for at least a thousand years. Fish oil must be able to keep burning for a long time, and the fuel oil that can be burned for thousands of years, colorless, odorless, and bright without diminishing a cent, must be the fish oil squeezed from the body of the mermaid, a half-human, half-fish species, to maintain this effect.
Trying to catch the fairy mermaid in the water is tantamount to ascending to the sky, and the mermaid lives in the deep sea, and rarely goes to the shallow sea area. It is only after the typhoon that people are likely to meet in Huanshang. Whenever a mermaid with excellent water characteristics feels the slightest mistake, it will turn around and run away, and it is extremely difficult to catch it.
Ordinary people are not dangerous to merfolk, and it is better for them to become prey to merfolk than to let them hunt mermaids. In terms of appearance, there is not much difference between female mermaids and humans except for the tail of the lower body, but the mermaid is extremely beautiful. On the contrary, male mermaids have the upper body like a fish, with scales, and their ugly appearance is often the image of sharp teeth and sharp mouths, and their feet are the appearance of human legs, with great strength, and they generally have the strength of the Xuanji Realm.
Female mermaids bewitch men, either luring the boat to run into silence or directly hypnotize the male into falling into the water. The male mer-man directly took advantage of the night and heavy rain to board the ship and destroy it, and killed people when they saw them.
One thing is for sure, merfolk will not come out to commit crimes without complete certainty, so it is extremely difficult to capture or hunt them alive. But seeing the fish oil lamps that can be seen everywhere here, it is impossible to meet the demand with a few fish oils.
"How much fish oil is there?"
Nowadays, people no longer use oil lamps, which are extremely backward tools, and when they learn that these fish oils are mermaids, everyone's expressions are different. The scarcity of mermaid oil is not the main reason why it is so precious, but the real reason why its price has soared is that mermaid oil can make people stay young.
It is true that breakthroughs in cultivation can slow down aging and prolong life. It is not difficult to break through the Xuanji Realm, as long as the qualifications are passable, and there is the assistance of cultivating pills, there is almost no problem, but it is just a matter of being a little earlier and a little later. The aging that occurs during this process is almost irreversible, and the only way to regain your appearance is to regain your appearance.
Human beings are extremely greedy, if they can live to be 200 years old, they want to live 300, 400, 500, the more powerful and rich people are more afraid of death, the Huahua world has too many temptations for people, no one wants to leave this world early, so no one will think that they have a long life.
Women are the species that care most about their appearance, regardless of race, and they are willing to pay a lot of money for their appearance. The price of any health and beauty products on the market is inflated, and fish oil like this one, whether applied externally or internally, can restore youthful appearance, and is the fastest and most harmless way to restore youth.
"Look, the fish oil in the brazier is less than a dozen catties!"
"Really! It's a waste that these people have fish oil to light the lamp! I don't know how much money I can get in exchange for selling it. ”
The people who came in were not unwealthy, and many of the retainers who were his subordinates didn't think they would have the opportunity to eat meat, so it was okay to drink some soup. So they inflated the plan of mermaid oil, even if they don't sell it, it is a very good choice to use it themselves.
There were a lot of people, not to mention hundreds of teenagers who met the requirements to participate in the training, they more or less brought one or two helpers, and at most four or five or even more than a dozen attendants assisted in the training. With such a large team, it is simply impossible to rely on a few people to control everyone. There are always some people who can't control their hands, and they can't pick up the jewels and gems in the sky, so it's always okay to scrape some fish oil in front of them.
There are not a few people who have this kind of thought, even if the sons present show their disdain to scavenge for mermaid oil, but that young man is not pregnant? You don't want to give it to the girl you like! And what better gift than mermaid oil? As for the princesses, county lords, and eldest ladies, not to mention, who would think that they are not young and beautiful enough?
At first, everyone had concerns about each other, especially Genkako, who was at the forefront, was a representative of the imperial court, and he was followed by the three golden flowers of the imperial capital, and they were the existence that made the younger generation of men feel ashamed. The three young women who combine beauty, intelligence, and strength will have at least countless suitors, and there are many male compatriots who want to perform well.
If the charm of the three golden flowers is not big enough, then as the youngest alchemy master in the empire, the celebrity under the empress, and the future is limitless, I don't know how many people are excited? Mature charm, beautiful appearance, noble temperament, elegant manners, dignified form, charming figure, flawless white jade skin, sultry eyes...... For the vast majority of young people, Genkako is like a poisonous poppy, which makes people fall deeper and deeper, and countless people love him every year, no matter how many times he fails, he still does not give up. Even if some are already fathers, they still miss Genkako.
Genkako is extremely reasonable, understands the human heart and the world, and will not alienate others because of her nobility. Genkako never goes out of her way to please anyone, nor does she alienate anyone, she keeps a clear distance from everyone so that the other person feels neither distant nor close. Even simple polite and perfunctory words became extremely approachable from her mouth. It can be said that Genkako is the dream lover in the minds of countless people, but Genkako has never had a scandal, and often goes alone, so there is no scandal object. This is extremely rare in aristocratic circles, after the empress came to power, the status of women rose with it, almost all walks of life have women, and the most important thing is that women also have the right to inherit.
There is no shortage of talented and intelligent among women, they are gradually gaining a place in society, and many strong women are not at all below men, or even better. So that the "profession" that was not welcomed in the past can be raised, such as the face of the head, the lover and so on. Over time, some women, who are no longer restrained, are more indulgent than men, and it can be said that they are more than exceeding.
A woman like Gen Xiangzi, who is talented, essential, good-looking, capital-based, status-based, and status-oriented, doesn't have a few confidantes, no matter how she thinks about it, it feels like something out of a fairy tale.
It doesn't matter if it's true or not, everyone is young, isn't it? The days to come are still long, endure it when you are young, will there be fewer opportunities to enjoy it in the future? Therefore, one by one, the young talents show their best state, not impatient, steady and mature, and try their best to show their advantages. Besides, Yuan Xiangzi's cultivation is not low, her talent is excellent, just looking at her appearance, she only thinks she has the appearance of being in her twenties, the figure of a thirty-year-old, and the skin of an eighteen-year-old. As a person who has stepped into the sixth-grade alchemist with half a foot, he is definitely not short of money. Marry a rich and powerful young and beautiful person, who has to have a chest, legs and legs, and buttocks, as for how old is he or herself? Please, age is not an issue that hinders love at all, is it a question of how many years apart you are? None of this is a matter in the face of love!
And the pretty people are also trying their best to express themselves, they are not jealous of Genkako, because Genkako usually acts low-key, does not deliberately show herself, and is perfect and irreprocal, and it is almost impossible to find anyone who can surpass her. What's more important is that the students brought out by Yuan Xiangzi are even more amazing, whether it is Nangong Yanzi who was born in a famous family, Yang Nuotong who was born in a wealthy businessman, and Shangguan Ling, who grew up in the army from a foreign race in the frontier, they are all Yuan Xiangzi's students and have been personally guided by her. The three of them have benefited a lot from their careers in cultivation and have been reused by the empress.
People believe that Nangong Yanzi, Yang Nuotong, and Shangguan Ling will be the pillars of the future imperial court, and it is very likely that they will become the new pillars. Therefore, Genkako's teaching ability is undoubted, and the most important thing is that she only accepts female apprentices and female students. Everyone agrees that as long as you can become a disciple of Gen Xiangzi, it will become inevitable to meet the empress, and it will be easy to be reused. So the vast majority of the people present were reluctant to miss the opportunity to tie up Genkako, who knows if they missed this opportunity, and when will the next opportunity be.
No matter how good the surface work is, how beautiful and perfect the inner thoughts are hidden, will the people under him not know the thoughts of the masters? Not only are there martial artists, but also strategists, and strength alone is not enough to overcome difficulties. Some people who like to play clever tricks secretly loot things, and the public is to bring things back to study, and the private is to please the master.
Things are going very well, those who can do this kind of work are veterans, everyone knows that the ancient tomb is sinister, and no one is trying to mess with the things in the mausoleum, for fear of touching a certain mechanism and causing trouble. Therefore, everyone who is responsible for the looting is a person who has worked in some dark industry with their hands and feet.
There are always exceptions.
"Cut, it's really unpleasant that the home built for the dead is even more luxurious than the palace of the lord of this county." It was a richly dressed woman who looked good. In terms of beauty, it is true that this woman has the capital of pride, as one of the county lords of Chu County, a first-class county in Shenzhou, Zhou Wenyao's identity can be regarded as noble. In terms of overall military affairs, they were slightly inferior to the central court, but they had close contacts with various counties, and the court could not help them for a while.
Chu County, who is not very on the same path as the central court, naturally does not need to curry favor with the central government, and Zhou Wenyao naturally ignores Yuan Xiangzi, who is a representative of the central court, let alone act according to the other party's face.
Coming to a suspended square, there is a tower with nine floors, the first of which can only accommodate a few people at the same time. Outside the mausoleum, the tower of this specification is not small, it looks out of place in the Dragon Emperor's Mausoleum, and the mausoleum palace that gives the first impression of the atmosphere makes this tower look very small.
Why is there such a small family tower here? And still on top of the high steps?
Many people have doubts in their hearts, but they don't have the intention of going forward to check, after all, this is not the core area, and the value will be immeasurable for a while, but this is not something they are eager to know.
"This tower is a bit interesting, go up with the lord of this county to have a look." Zhou Wenyao swaggered up.
"The county lord is careful, our task this time is arduous, it is better to be cautious, there are many other forces around, let them be the first person to eat crabs, no one we can also instruct others to go, there are many who are willing to tie up our family."
As a strategist, the primary consideration is to maximize profits, and everything is one step at a time and three steps. It is unwise to take unnecessary risks without seeing the benefits.
The strategist's idea is good, but it's a pity that Zhou Wenyao, who is the master, doesn't buy it.
"Hmph, when will it be the turn of the county lord to do things? Get out of the way! ”
Zhou Wenyao didn't look at the strategists under him, and climbed the steps by himself. The strategist wanted to further the master, realizing that the master he was serving was very willful, and talking too much would only have the opposite effect. Some of the representatives of other family forces saw some did not see it, some saw it and chose to turn a blind eye, some were afraid of the power of the county, and more wanted to see the excitement. Before they dared to guarantee absolute safety, no one wanted to risk their lives, especially the group of statue guards outside the mausoleum who gave the emperor ** team a blow in the head.
At that time, everyone underestimated the enemy, and at first they didn't care about the guards, but after the fight, no one thought that the statue guards were taking advantage of the sneak attack and retreating advance troops. Just the gatekeeper is so terrifying, what kind of horror things will be waiting for everyone in the future? Now there are people who are willing to be cannon fodder, why stop it, if there is a chance, there can be a hero to save the United States next time.
