Chapter 290: I can't laugh or cry
Tanglin Guyun shook his head, sighed and said, "The box is right, but the weight is wrong, I suspect that the box is empty at all!"
Duanmu Youning was taken aback again, and his eyes flashed with disbelief: "Could it be that Murong Liao deceived the world?"
Tanglin Guyun put the box on the table: "Open it and take a look!"
This time, it was rare that there was no hidden weapon in the box, and it did not emit any toxic smoke, but the surface was coated with a layer of blue tears. And as soon as the box was opened, the two couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly: it was really empty, and there was nothing they were looking for at all - it was not entirely correct to say that it was empty, because there was a neatly folded yellow silk in the box, and it was also embroidered with dragon and phoenix ornaments: could it be that Murong Liao left it?
Seeing that there was no poison on the yellow silk, Duanmu Youning carefully took it out, and first put the box farther away before unfolding it and spreading it on the table.
The content on the yellow silk is not complicated, and it is exactly what Murong Liao left behind. After reading those lines clearly, Tanglin Guyun raised his head and smiled: "Okay, now I can finally go back without worry!"
"Hmm. Duanmu Youning sighed, "It's really ...... But it doesn't matter, I was hoping for what happened. What's more, even without it, you can get back everything that should have belonged to you!"
Tanglin Guyun nodded in agreement, and after a little discussion, the two decided to restore the box to its original state, and put it back in the sarcophagus while Yuwenheng came out to rest again. As for whether he can see these things, it depends on his creation.
Although whether you can see it or not, it makes no difference to him.
The sky is getting brighter.
After a full night's sleep, coupled with a flying mood, the guards got up early in the morning to talk and laugh, laughing and laughing, as if it was the New Year.
Looking at Yu Wenheng's gray face, the two of them knew it, but they pretended not to know and sent someone to invite him and Suo Tianli over. After greeting each other, Tanglin Guyun said: "Prince Tianli, Prince Yuwen, I discussed it with Youning, and felt that although the treasure could not be taken away, it would be too inappropriate to leave here, so I decided to bury the underground palace again and leave, what do you two think?"
"It should. Suo Tianli nodded immediately, "Although Murong Liao failed to use this palace in the end, he killed many innocent people because of it, and this palace should be regarded as the grave of those craftsmen." Although they did not reap any benefits during their lifetime, they still have such a luxurious mausoleum after their deaths, which can also comfort them a little in the heavenly spirits. ”
The two sides hit it off, but Yu Wenheng obviously didn't have this interest. What's more, the sarcophagus has not yet been opened, and the thing he wants has not yet been found, and he is thinking about how to find an excuse to delay for another day. But if you bury it now, won't everything be finished?
But Tanglin Guyun's proposal was reasonable, he couldn't object to it at all, if he forcibly stopped it, it would arouse their suspicion again......
Hengzhu had tried his best last night, but found nothing, that is to say, with his ability, he could not open the sarcophagus at all, and he could not find any clues! In this case, it is better that no one can get it!
Secretly gritting his teeth, he said casually: "Okay, that's it. ”
At that moment, the three kingdoms each sent an order to go down, and let the guards get to work immediately. Although the departure time was delayed because of this, everyone agreed: we can't let those innocent people die in vain expose their bodies to the wilderness, right?
After a lot of intense work, this huge underground palace was finally reburied, and if it weren't for the freshly turned dirt everywhere, it would have been a dream that would have been unrealistic!
In short, whether it is a fact or a dream, everything is finally over completely! The guards have already packed everything up, and the three kingdoms have each gathered their men and embarked on the return journey in a mighty way!
Because they were like arrows, and they had never received anything, the guards walked with extraordinary briskness, and their speed was by no means comparable to that of the time they came. So it looks like they'll be back home soon!
"Yu Wenheng's choice was expected by me. Duanmu smiled and said in a low voice, "Since he can't open the sarcophagus and can't find the jade seal of the heirloom country, he will simply hide this matter to the end!
Yes, the biggest purpose of Yu Wenheng's trip is to pass on the jade seal of the country!
This heirloom jade seal originally belonged to the Datong Empire, when the founding emperor of the Three Kingdoms *** entered the palace, it was originally agreed that whoever first found the heirloom jade seal would ascend the throne as the emperor, and the other two countries would bow down to the vassals, but this enthroner would ensure that the two would be prosperous and wealthy for generations.
Who knew that he had searched inside and out many times, but no one had gained anything, so he had to temporarily divide the Datong Empire into three and ascend the throne separately. At the same time, they also made an oath: the previous agreement is still valid, no matter which country finds the heirloom jade seal, they have the right to dominate the Lingyuan Continent and turn the three-legged tripod into a standout!
However, many years have passed, and the jade seal has never appeared. It wasn't until later that the emperor of Mingfeng Kingdom at that time inquired that the jade seal was likely to be in the underground palace!
According to historical records, Murong Liao wanted to enjoy the treatment of the emperor and queen with her after he died in the future, so in addition to a large number of funeral goods, he even put the jade seal of the country in the underground palace!
Upon learning of this news, Emperor Mingfeng immediately secretly sent people to investigate in every possible way, but there were still no clues. However, he has always kept a secret and did not dare to let the other two countries know. It wasn't until later, Yuwenheng's ancestor Yuwentang discovered the secret of the underground palace, that Mingfeng Kingdom began to act secretly, looking forward to finding the jade seal of the heirloom country as soon as possible and tasting the taste of dominating the Lingyuan Continent!
Who knew that Yu Wenheng later unexpectedly learned that the descendant of Hua Jinse was actually Duanmu Youning, and he realized that it was impossible to enjoy this secret alone, so he simply found Tanglin Luo Xi and told everything and the plate, but he only concealed the matter of the jade seal of the country, and only used that huge wealth to persuade the two countries to come with him to hunt for treasures.
It's a pity that he didn't expect that because of Shen Shaobai's Tongtian Pavilion, the matter of passing on the jade seal of the country was not as mysterious as he thought it was, and he had already been recognized by Tanglin Guyun for his true purpose!
And it was precisely because she learned of this that Duanmu Youning took the initiative to express her willingness to come, because she wanted to get the heirloom jade seal for Donglin Guyun and hold him to the throne of the overlord!
So, the two took advantage of the night to enter the underground palace, opened the sarcophagus, and found the box. thought that their wish had finally been granted, but under the candlelight last night, the two of them saw a piece of laughable news from the piece of yellow silk: Murong Liao said that the jade seal of the country had been lost a long time ago, but this secret has been guarded by the successive emperors of the Datong Empire, and unless the crown prince ascends the throne, he will secretly tell the new emperor a person. Externally, they imitated a fake jade seal, and there is no problem in deceiving the ministers and the world!
Therefore, there was no need for Murong Liao to bring the fake jade seal here at all, but only left a piece of yellow silk in the box. It's hard to guess what his intentions were, but it's certain that no one wants to take anything from the underground palace except full of regret and reluctance.
So much is there is to the content on the yellow silk, as for how the jade seal was lost, where it may have been lost, he did not say a word, and this is like an underground palace, it will become a mystery for the ages, maybe a few years later, by chance, someone will find it. Naturally, that's for later.
Looking at the way Yuwen Heng lowered his shoulders, Tanglin Guyun smiled faintly: "If it falls into the hands of others, it is naturally better for no one to get it, at least in the future, he will still be the emperor of Mingfeng Kingdom!" But if he knew the truth, he would definitely jump up with joy." ”
"Naturally, you can't tell him the truth, otherwise you and I won't be able to tell the truth. Duanmu Youning couldn't help pursing his lips, "A person of his kind of heart, unless he sees it with his own eyes, he will never believe that the jade seal of the country has been lost, but will only think that we are hiding it, and deliberately made up a lie to deceive him, then it will be troublesome!"
Naturally, he knew that doing so would definitely lead to endless troubles, and Tanglin Guyun smiled again: "So you proposed to put the box back as it was, just thinking that if Yu Wenheng was willing to tell the story of the jade seal of the country, so that he could see the truth with his own eyes?"
Duanmu Youning nodded: "But I also said that this possibility is very small, he will definitely not do this, and it is true." ”
Tanglin Guyun glanced at Yu Wenheng from a distance again, and never said anything more. For Yu Wenheng, the blow he took should be the heaviest of all.
Leaving the Valley of Customs, everyone had no distractions, left Langyu Peak all the way, went down the Qianwei Mountain, and returned along the same road. Although food has been almost cut off along the way, fortunately, there is no shortage of game, and I have never been hungry.
In such a hurry, the people gradually moved from the countryside to the town, and there was no need to worry about the food problem. Xiao Zhanfei and the guards of the other two countries immediately purchased carriages for their respective masters, making them more relaxed. After another period of trekking, the capital of Yulin Kingdom is finally in sight!
At this moment, there are no words that can describe the joy in the hearts of the guards of the Yulin Kingdom, they are already so excited that their faces are flushed, and they can't wait to fly home with their wings, and secretly pray that the same experience will never happen again in the future!
To go to the Valley of Customs, you must first pass through the Yulin Country, and if you want to return to the Mingfeng Country and the Tianlong Kingdom, you must naturally pass through here. Even out of the most basic courtesy, the princes of the two countries must first enter the palace to greet Tanglin Luoxi.
Maybe it's because he received the flying pigeon from Tanglin Guyun in advance, so he has been mentally prepared, or maybe it's because he hasn't seen how huge the treasure is, so he doesn't feel sorry if he can't get it, seeing the people who returned empty-handed, Donglin Luoxi's expression was actually very calm, and even smiled slightly: "Yun'er, Youning, you have worked hard!"
