Chapter 41 The Jade Seal of the Country

Li Kuan and the others sat on horseback, the war horse was galloping wildly, and the rumbling sound behind them shook the sky, and the smoke and dust rolled straight into the sky. The raging shock wave swept away the gloomy lead clouds, and the long-lost sun appeared above the sky. A ray of golden sunlight shone down, bordering the slowly rising mushroom cloud. The brilliant and colorful mushroom cloud swayed and rose, and Li Kuan, who looked back, opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it.

"Is this really an atomic bombing?" The spectacular mushroom cloud gave Li Kuan the illusion that he seemed to feel that he had returned to the later life, the era of advanced technology, because the scene in front of him was too similar to the scenes he saw on TV. But the bumps on horseback let him know that this qiē was true, and such a scene appeared during the Tang Dynasty. What the hell is going on? A lot of thoughts came to Li Kuan's mind, and gradually a clue was remembered by him.

"System...... It should be the system. Li Kuan remembered the uneasiness he suddenly felt last night, the mouse that was desperately fleeing, and the abnormal behavior of Little Gray and Chasing Clouds. This is clearly the spontaneous reaction of animals before the occurrence of another disaster that is irresistible to nature. But what does this have to do with the system?

"Is it oil? By the way, it is oil, and after oil is absorbed by the system, it does not leave residue like coal, or it leaves very little. Li Kuan remembered the first time he absorbed the fire oil that Li Er had brought him, and after the large barrels of fire oil were absorbed, they all disappeared without a trace. And fire oil is refined from oil. When the oil is absorbed, it will disappear without a trace, and the ground will become a huge hole. The earth's crust supports the entire ground. If there is such a big pit, there will definitely be a subsidence and a sinkhole.

The more Li Kuan thought about it, the more he felt that it was correct. This is really a coincidence, there is actually an oil belt under the Turkic king's tent. After absorbing the oil, its own system left a void that would not have collapsed so violently. It may slowly sink before it collapses violently. However, it happened that the mysterious people raided the Turkic king's tent and killed the Turks' most powerful force dependent. And then it was even more coincidental that the Turks held the highest funeral for him in order to thank the great Turkic Taishang, and a large group of mourners all rode horses to follow, and for the majesty of the funeral, the horses marched forward in unison. caused resonance. Directly cracked the earth's crust, which was already unreliable. Thus the entire Turkic king's tent was directly buried.

"This is the real undertaker!" Li Kuan thought in his heart with emotion.

In fact, since last night, the animals in the Turkic camp have already appeared to be in that panic, but they have not attracted the attention of the Turks. When did the Turkic people living in the steppes experience earthquakes, natural disasters such as landslides and mudslides? They don't even notice the unusual reaction of their livestock, or they don't pay attention to it.

In addition, last night, the mysterious people attacked the camp and fought with the Turkic Taishang, and the whole camp was in chaos, and then Li Kuan and others also intervened, causing a small-scale turmoil. All of these things happened together, and they attracted the attention of the Turks. Where are the people who are restless with cattle and sheep?

Moreover, the earth's crust was still very strong at that time, and the reaction of the cattle and sheep was not fierce enough, but there was a faint feeling that they wanted to leave here. These cattle, sheep and horses have been raised by the Turks for generations. Wild degeneration perceptions are also not as sensitive as their ancestors. This is known from the comparison between the wild wolves and them, and after the wild wolves stepped into this area, they immediately stopped advancing. Because they felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.

The entire Turkic king's tent fell into a large pit, and countless people let out a wail at the last moment. The sound was completely muffled by the earth-shattering sound of the earth's crust collapsing, the largest Turkic tribe in the steppe. This tribe, which carried the golden wolf banner and represented the highest power center of the Eastern Turks in the steppe, was all buried in this natural disaster by chance.

Li Kuan sat on the back of Chasing Cloud, and at this time they were far away from the center of the subsidence. But that shock wave still caught up with them, and Li Kuan and the others only felt a strong force coming from their backs, as if they were about to fly them off their horses. One by one, they hurriedly tightened the reins of the horse, tightly clamped the horse's belly with their legs downward, and fixed themselves on the horse's back. The shockwave swept over with smoke and dust, turning the ground that had just been illuminated gray again. This time it's not clouds in the sky, but dust in the air.

"Work hard, rush out, I don't know if this thing is poisonous!" Li Kuan didn't know if there was a toxic gas in the space left by the absorption of oil under the earth's crust, so he hurriedly shouted, and then whipped his horsewhip and sped up.

It's just that the scope of this dust shroud is too vast, and I'm afraid that it will be shrouded in a radius of dozens of miles. After receiving the notification from the system, Li Kuan immediately set up camp to absorb energy, which was still more than ten miles away from the Turkic king's tent, and the Turkic king's tent was all on this oil belt, which means that this hole was more than ten miles long, or even longer. Although the area containing oil is only such a thin layer, of course, this is relative to the thickness of the earth's crust, this space is also large enough, if the gas filled in it is poisonous, then Li Kuan and others will definitely be in danger.

Fortunately, although Li Kuan and the others did not run out of the envelope, they were not poisoned, and it seems that the god of luck still favored them.

"Captain, what the hell is going on?" Liu Wei muttered in disbelief at the sight of him. What about the dense felt canopy before? And what about the Turks who came in and out? What about the herds of cattle and sheep?

All of them disappeared, and there was only a huge crack in front of him, a black crack like a wound on the earth. I don't know how deep, but the north wind howled, blowing through this gap, making a sound like a ghost crying. Hearing Liu Wei's hair, it seemed that the souls of countless Turkic people were wailing in the cracks in front of him.

This is already the second day of the fall of the Turkic king's tent, the dust in the air has long been carried away by the howling cold wind, and the lead cloud once again shrouds the sky, black and oppressive, in such an environment, Li Wan came here with his dozen or so Xuanjia guards, and came to the location of the original Turkic king's tent.

They were the first to arrive, and the nearest tribe would probably have to wait a few hours to arrive. Judging from this, they already knew it from the mouth of Ashnadur. So Li Kuan was not afraid that someone would come now, so he stood on the edge of this black crack in the ground with a big grin.

A stone at his feet was kicked down by Li Kuan, he counted in his heart, and when he counted to five, he heard the sound of the stone falling to the ground, Li Kuan was secretly frightened in his heart, this crack in the ground is really deep! I'm afraid it's no less than 20 feet deep! Li Kuan is not good at mathematics, so he can only guess a number randomly, such a deep layer of soil is actually cracked, and he can only blame the Turks for their bad luck, or that their combat effectiveness is too strong, and such a thick layer of soil is smashed and broken. 、

"Captain, what are we doing here? I'm afraid the rest of the Turks are coming, and they will be here in three hours at most, shouldn't we leave? Liu Wei reminded.

"It's time to go, but there's one more thing to do before we go!" Li Kuan said calmly.

"What else?" Liu Wei was puzzled, there was no one else here who was panting except for them now, what else was there to do?

"Go down!" Li Kuan replied.

"Go down? No, it's so deep, none of us know what's down here, how can we go down and take risks? The son of a daughter does not sit in the hall. How could you, Lord Lieutenant, set foot in such a place? Liu Wei looked serious, he would never let Li Kuan go down to this crack.

"Liu Sima, how can there be anything in this world that doesn't take risks? Before, a dozen of us dared to break into the Turkic king's tent, isn't that dangerous? Two or three hundred people on the grassland dare to be unscrupulous? When encountering the main forces of the Turks, I am afraid that they will be directly stuffed between their teeth! Isn't that dangerous? What's the danger of going down now? Li Kuan didn't know if this crack would collapse again, but now he had a reason to go down.

Just now, a cold message came from the system that had fallen silent after absorbing the oil the night before yesterday in Li Kuan's mind: "Because the host has changed history, the historical task 'Retrieve the Jade Seal of the Inheritance Country' has been triggered. This task is a mandatory task and must be executed, or the host can now absorb energy to a deep purple color and be able to remove the inertial punishment of the historical correction force, otherwise when Li Jingqi's attack on Dingxiang is successful, it will be the day when the host is erased. ”

It's rare for the system to say so much at once, but it doesn't bring any good news, it's actually a mandatory task to 'find the jade seal of the country'? What do you mean? Could it be that the jade seal of the country has been lost?

Li Kuan hurriedly looked at the upcoming history: Li Jing broke the Turks, Zhang Baoxiang captured Jieli alive, went deep into the grassland to capture the Turkic royal family, and welcomed back the former Empress Xiao of Sui and Princess Yicheng. Empress Xiao presented the jade seal of the country to Li Er.

"Rub!" Reading this, Li Kuan couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, this heirloom jade seal is in the hands of Queen Xiao? Although Yang Guang was only with her and a little prince when he died, it is not necessarily that Yang Guang still carried the jade seal of the country when he died? So Li Kuan didn't think that Empress Xiao would have this thing, and after Yang Guang's death, she was taken captive by several anti-kings, if this thing was really in her hands, how could she not take it out to save her life a few times? In the end, the former queen of the Sui Dynasty was taken to the grassland by her sister-in-law and the pro-Turkic Princess Yicheng, and the two sisters-in-law herded sheep and picked up cow dung together. This heirloom jade seal has been brought to the grassland by her, which surprised Li Kuan very much!

Now that the system has released tasks, it is about his life, how can you laugh with him! Therefore, this heirloom jade seal is really in the hands of Queen Xiao, and now she has to go down to find this thing, otherwise Li Er will not be able to justifiably remove the stain of his own blood with the blood of the Shenmahu people, and he will not be able to directly negotiate with the Shandong family. With the heirloom jade seal, he has a righteous reputation, and he can speak loudly! (To be continued......)
