Chapter Seventy-Eight: Opening the Underground Palace

Lurking in the night and successfully landing on Kunhuang Island, Ai Qing, the big blocker, immediately released the sparrowhawk to find Lu Qiange's hiding place and fought with him, and it was nearly three watches at that time.

After that, Fu Chuan took a guard and quietly returned to Guiping, and the right to be Cheng Wanli's guide.

The people of the island gathered.

Seeing that Brother Lu was accompanied by a beautiful face, Gu Yunxi was happy in his heart. and South China Ji Yan shushed each other and asked for warmth, seeing that she was safe and sound, Gu Yunxi finally put his mind at ease.

Silently staring at Gu Yunxi's little face that was still beautiful and lovely after her successful transformation, seeing the intimacy of her and Leng Qingtang's close to each other and their arms intertwined, Lu Qiange's heart was slightly sour ripples.

But he always had an indifferent smile on his face, and he cleverly concealed his caution in front of everyone.

Everyone sat cross-legged on the verdant grass, and began to meet in the darkness of the night, and revisited the actions that were to be carried out in a few hours.

On the fourth watch, all the staff rested in place to recuperate.

In less than five days, the island became lively one after another.

Cheng Wanli took Dongchang 2nd, 3rd, and 7th to round with Leng Qingtang under the guidance of the guide, and handed over the Kunhuang Island map and the jade piccolo to the overseer and Gu Yunxi.

The picture mastered by Dongchang has been adjusted by Wu Yong himself, that is, the yang picture.

When the first emperor Hua Nanze was alive, even if he trusted Leng Qingtang again, he would not rashly hand over such a valuable Kunhuang Island map directly to Dongchang for safekeeping.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, he thinks that it is safe only to control the two copies of the picture in his own hands. When the royal driver comes to Weihai, he will hand it over properly, and his capable subordinates will secretly get the things in the underground palace for him.

"The real Kunhuang Island map and the secret key are now in our hands."

Leng Qingtang's calm gaze fell on the old sheepskin in his hand, and his face was emotional and complicated.

For more than ten years, he has tried to survive, traveled in the temple, and finally won what he wanted, but time has passed.

Gu Yunxi held the piccolo tightly in one hand, and his eyes narrowed to feel the coldness of the layers of abrupt patterns on the flute's body.

Suddenly, she thought of something, and her eyes widened:

"Whose hands is that Yin diagram now?"

Cheng Wanli's expression darkened:

"Wu Yong took it, in order to cover the actions of Dongchang, he has already led the men and horses of Hua Nanxin to open the underground palace shown in the Yin map."

"The Organ Center? Then he won't ......."

Gu Yunxi's eyebrows trembled and bowed his head, and a pair of watery pupils filled with some tears because of the pain in his heart.

When he was in the palace, he heard Wu Yong say that he had a plan to protect Dongchang, and this trip was foolproof, but he didn't want to sacrifice his own plan.

Originally, I always thought that the false Taoist priest was cunning and greedy, and he didn't want to sacrifice his life for righteousness and became a hero.

Leng Qingtang sighed:

This may be the fate of his own choice. Let's not delay, let's get ready and get on the road, and the people from the court will go to the island later. ”

The team immediately lined up, each carrying a powder bag, and quietly set out on the road under the moonlight.

At the same time, the 100-man forbidden army sent by Hua Nanxin also landed on the island around five watches.

Wu Yong poured vinegar and fire on the Yin map to show the location of the fake underground palace, and then led the forbidden army to the south of Kunhuang Island according to the direction guidance.

Skirting two hills that were not too high, wading through a winding and shallow strip river, the ranks of the forbidden army were constantly grumbling.

With a "snap", someone covered his face with a big palm, scratched his fingers and scolded:

"Damn, there are too many mosquitoes here."

Others heckled:

"Haha, your skin is so thick, and you're afraid of biting?"

"That is, your skin is thicker than the flesh on your belly, why do mosquitoes bite your face instead of your buttocks?"

"Oh, his ass stinks!"

"Whoahahaha-"

"Give Lao Tzu quiet, hurry with your heart! The violator returned to Guiping, and Lao Tzu kicked him into the sea to feed the shark! ”

An officer followed Wu Yong's side, turned around and scolded his subordinates, and cast his impatient eyes on Wu Yong, who was walking leisurely:

"Hey, I said bullnose, how many hours do you have to go? The brothers in the back were still pushing two carts of gunpowder, and it would be difficult for them to keep up with the team if they continued like this! ”

Wu Yong raised his eyebrows and smiled coldly in return:

"If you can't keep up, you have to follow, if you miss the emperor's errand, how many of you have enough heads to cut off?"

The officer was choked with a red face and a thick neck, rolled his eyes and said no more.

Wu Yong slowed down at this time, unfolded the sheepskin in a small tune in his mouth, and shook his head after a few glances:

"Okay, it's almost here, the plain ahead is, everyone is in a hurry."

After walking for two miles, there is a flat grass in front of you, and the field of vision is comfortable and open.

Wu Yong walked slower and slower at this moment, and a touch of sadness flashed on his thin face.

"It's here—"

He shouted at the empty neck, a little vicissitudes of life, a little weak tail broken in the night wind.

According to the direction on the sheepskin, Wu Yong raised the compass and gestured for a moment out of thin air, walked forward fifty steps and stopped, stomped on the grass with one foot, and squeezed out a smile to greet the forbidden army:

"Everyone, come on, just bury the gunpowder in the place where Dao Ye and I are standing, and the lead is a hundred meters...... There, behind that small mound you can hide. ”

The officer motioned to his subordinates, and a group of people immediately got busy, unloading the trucks and pickaxes.

Soon everything was arranged, the gunpowder and the fuse were buried, and when he had finished his work, he hid behind the mound and lit the fuse.

The sky is getting brighter a little bit.

Hundreds of pairs of eyes were staring at the Starfire that was constantly jumping forward on the lead.

It was the bad luck of this group that the 100-meter-long lead was only half-burned, and then it went out in the middle of it.

The officer was irritable, his brows furrowed, and his fingers were in front of him, and his broken gong voice widened and shouted:

"Go to the individual and light the fire again."

A forbidden soldier ran out with a torch in hand, lit the fuse, and quickly nodded and ran back.

Everyone continued to watch, and seeing that the lead was about to burn out, the spark above actually went out again.

As if he was splashed with ice water, the captain was immediately angry, and his fat palm slapped his thigh, and he couldn't stop speaking violently:

"Damn, it's an evil sect! You go—"

He grabbed his nearest subordinate.

The man's face turned pale with fright, and he looked closely at the place where the explosives were planted, and as soon as his body went limp, he was about to sit on the ground:

"Sir, just spare the little one. There is not much left of the twist, and when the son is afraid that the small ignition of the gunpowder has not yet run back, it has already exploded! ”

"You're such a fucking waste, Lao Tzu told you to go, you go!"

The officer did not give up, snatched the torch from one of the men and shoved it into the guard, then grabbed him by the placket and pushed him out of the mound.

The guards were full of faces, and Baba turned around to look twice, pursing her dry lips and slowly moving towards her destination.

"Damn, hurry up, when you open the dungeon and get what the emperor wants, Lao Tzu will treat you well!"

Behind him, the officer kept drawing a big pie with coaxing and fright, aiming to urge his subordinates to step up their actions.

The man trembled and held the torch to find the right place, looked around, and noticed that the end of the charred black lead under his feet was about to sink into the ground, and his face was blue and gray, and the corners of his mouth were stiffly pulled.

"Hey! What the fuck are you grinding, light it up—"

A hundred meters away, the officer waited impatiently, straightened his spine behind the mound, and shouted with his hands on his hips.

In desperation, the forbidden soldier had no choice but to squat down, facing the faint light of dawn, pulling the little lead left in the house with one hand, and holding the torch with the other hand trembling closer.

After repeating it a few times, he finally lit the fuse.

Then he shook his hand and threw away the torch, and he hurried back with a roll and a crawl.

He hadn't gone far when there was a deafening bang behind him, and the man was torn to pieces by the flying dust and the powerful force of the charge.

Behind the mound, his colleagues were completely dumbfounded, only Wu Yong looked indifferent and calm.

The smoke cleared, and a huge round pit appeared on the plain, and the surrounding vegetation was desolate, and there was a pungent smell in the slowly flowing silent air, which was not very good, it was the smell of sulfur mixed with burning.

In front of everyone's eyes, Wu turned around from behind the mound, and straightened the righteous crown and robe without hurrying.

His dark brown eyes were filled with calmness, he looked straight ahead, smiled silently, and raised his voice:

"The door of the dungeon has been opened, let's go in with the poor road."

The officer looked straight at the big black round pit, swallowed greedily, and a trace of evil laughter evoked:

"Hehe, I don't know if there are any mountains of gold and silver in this underground palace in addition to the things that the emperor wants......"

Wu Yong smiled, looking at the front with a cold look in his eyes:

"Yes, when you dream, everything will happen."

"What did you say?"

Suddenly the earth shook under their feet, and the people exclaimed:

"What's going on, could it be that the ground is moving?"

"Oh Niang, Lao Tzu can't stand firmly!"

"Don't panic, everyone—"

At this time, the shaking became more and more violent, and 100 meters away, billowing yellow smoke continued to gush out of the deep pit, and the overwhelming momentum was very spectacular.

These smoke changed wantonly in front of everyone's eyes, clustering and squeezing each other like hideous ghost faces, fusing with each other and transforming into other forms in one moment.

Accompanied by the strange smoke pouring out of the nest is the sound of the fierce wind and the smell of fishy smell in the sky, which makes people can't stop nagging.

The yin wind is continuous, thick as a tiger roaring, clanging and roaring like a coiling dragon, and the scene is terrifying.

The ground continued to collapse, advancing layer by layer from the entrance of the dungeon that had exploded, and the range quickly spread to the place where everyone had stopped.

"Quick, run—"

I don't know who shouted, and suddenly woke up the people who were dumbfounded.

In an instant, the ghost cries and the wolf howls, and there is no life to run, and you are afraid that you will fall behind after me.

Half of the world was plunged into darkness.

Wu Yong stood in front of the ruined mound, raising his eyes to look at the billowing yellow smoke, even if the collapse was getting closer and closer to him, he still did not change freely, let the whirring wind twist the crown, and his hair fluttered all over his head.

He opened his arms and laughed out loud:

"Hahaha, I think I, Wu Yong, have been floating for half of my life, and I have traveled to the north and south, traveled through mountains and rivers, and have spent all day drinking and being imprisoned. It's worth it to sleep here, it's worth it! ”

The yellow smoke and the ground collapsed over his body and the others, and all kinds of hoarse voices, cries for help and shouts, all swallowed up by the unfathomable space.

The fierce friction that followed in the dungeon was like countless metal compasses stirring rapidly at the same moment, and the gears crushed each other, and the sound shook through the sky.

The fishy smell was heavier, and the yellow smoke turned into red smoke in an instant, aggressive as fire, and bright as blood.

The waves on the sea were stormy and the waves were slamming, and half of the Kunhuang Island trembled a few times.

After that, dust returns to dust, dust returns to earth, and everything returns to the beginning, restoring the original tranquility.

——

The first ray of sunlight pierces through the morning mist, and the Qionglou Yuyu and carved railings under the blue sky are all exquisite and extravagant.

Hua Nanxin's guard of honor stopped in front of the Qushui Temple.

"Imperial ......"

The old eunuch Chen Yingcai raised his voice to report that "the emperor has arrived", but was stopped by Hua Nanxin with his hand.

The dragon robe fluttered up the stairs on its own, and Hua Nanxin walked to the closed vermilion carved door and gently clicked.

"Yunxi, I've come to see you. I've already arranged for me to cruise to Weihai by boat later, okay? ”

Seeing the door open for a moment, Hua Nanxin frowned awe-inspiring and listened.

A sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, and Hua Nanxin kicked open the door with one foot, leading people to rush into the main hall.

The curtain broke into the cabinet, and the brocade on the ivory bed was curled up.

Chen Ying and the chamberlain hurriedly stepped forward to uncover the quilt, and when they looked at it again, it was the palace maid Dongzhu who had passed out.
