Chapter 625: You've Been Trapped
Lu Sheng looked at Ji En's angry appearance and wanted to laugh inexplicably. looked at King Xiaoyao with a heavy face, "The palace is heavily guarded, and the prince's cultivation is unfathomable. It's hard for ordinary people to steal from the royal treasury, right?
Moreover, it was stolen twenty years ago, and the Dragon Slaying Sword was stolen again a few days later?"
"Alas, twenty years ago it was the king who was negligent in his precautions, and the king was not at home at that time when he was with the army on the expedition of the various tribes. But this time, this king is really hot, and it's also very inexplicable. β
"In this way, let's go to the prince's treasury and have a look. β
"Please!"
Both of them are masters of the Dao realm, but there is no one waiting for whom, their bodies flashed in the air, and in less than an hour, the two of them came to the mansion of the King of Freedom by the Sea of Stars.
The coastline of the Sea of Stars stretches for 700 miles, spanning three prefectures, and the Xiaoyao Mansion is located on the edge of Xingchen Beach due to the west.
The mansion was already heavily guarded, and even a military formation had been raised. Lu Sheng raised his head and looked at the watermark in the sky, this military formation turned out to be a turtle.
"Lord Lu, please!"
Under the leadership of Ji En, Lu Sheng walked down the passage of the secret room.
"This secret room is under the prince's room, is there any other entrance?"
"No, but there is an exit to the port of the Sea of Stars to the south, which is the king's escape secret passage, and in case of irresistible danger, you can evacuate along the secret passage.
But...... This secret passage is one-way, with a total of 12 levels, and only the king knows how to open it. I think that thief...... I don't know how to turn it on. β
Follow the secret passage into the treasure house, this ...... In Lu Sheng's opinion, it should be a cave museum. The underground is a complex karst cave structure, some of which are natural, and most of them are artificially and deliberately built to make such a complexity.
And the treasures are placed in the insurance of the cave wall, and there are rune prohibitions outside to protect them.
Lu Sheng looked at it all the way, although there were many rare treasures, but more of them were still famous swords. It is conceivable that the King of Freedom is a man who loves swords.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Lu Sheng paused, his eyes staring at a sword as green as jade in front of him.
"Qinglian Sword?" Lu Sheng asked in surprise after a pause.
"Lord Lu also knows about the Qinglian Sword? hahaha...... It seems that Lord Lu is also a fellow believer. The Qinglian Sword is the sword of the Qinglian Sword Immortal, a swordsman who was 13,000 years ago. He is also the first peerless master to enter the Tao with a sword in martial arts records.
His sword, which has traveled all over the world, was found by me twenty-seven years ago. Lord Lu knew that for the sake of this Qinglian Sword, this king personally stole and excavated three hundred and seventy-four ancient tombs, and only then did he find the authenticity of the Qinglian Sword. The King smiled proudly.
"That, lord, tomb robbery is a crime. β
"Forehead......" King Xiaoyao's smug smile came to an abrupt end, he patronized Dese, and almost forgot that Lu Sheng was still the head town of Xuantian Mansion.
"Don't worry, although tomb robbery is illegal, it is not a heinous crime after all, don't do it in the future. β
"Understood, understood!"
"This is ......" Suddenly, Lu Sheng paused again, "The Dragon Yin Sword, one of the top ten divine swords?"
"Yes, the Dragon Yin Sword, the proudest work in this king's collection. The Ten Great Divine Swords have long since disappeared into the long river, and this Dragon Yin Sword is probably the only one in the world that exists. β
It can be seen that the king loves swords like an obsession, and in addition to collecting swords in the treasure house, he also collects martial arts cheats, and Lu Sheng, who is full of dazzling lights, is amazed.
"Lord Lu, every treasure here in this king is a rare treasure. On weekdays, in addition to this king, only the little girl occasionally comes here. The king comes here every day to take stock of my collection, and the passage in and out of the secret room is known only to a few henchmen except the king.
Today, the king is reading at home all day, and if an outsider breaks in, the king will be able to detect it. Unless that thief ...... Cultivation is above the Dao Realm!"
King Xiaoyao swore and took Lu Sheng to the edge of an empty treasure chest.
"It used to be a dragon slaying sword here?"
"Yes, twenty years ago, when this king was helping to suppress the turmoil in Lanzhou, he met a blacksmith, and this king had no intention of giving the blacksmith some help, but he didn't think that the blacksmith would give away the ancestral sword.
The dragon sword cuts gold and jade, and it is extremely sharp. But that's just it, this king will not be crazy about love. At the beginning, in order to show the king the wonder of the dragon-slaying sword, the blacksmith cut off the king's sword on the spot.
Lord Lu didn't know that the sword of this king back then was a star-striped divine weapon given by the emperor. β
Lu Sheng couldn't deny that the Dragon Slaying Sword could even cut through the scales of the Xuan Snake, let alone the Star Striped Divine Soldier? Cutting off the Star Pattern Divine Soldier was very much despise the Dragon Slaying Sword. If you want Lu Sheng to say, I'm afraid that the Dragon Slashing Sword can even be cut off with one sword.
Lu Sheng stood in front of the empty closet, the rune prohibition on it flickering intact. Lu Sheng stretched out his hand and slowly leaned towards the prohibition. As soon as he touched the prohibition, suddenly a ball of electric light exploded on the palm of his hand.
The electric light spread out visibly to the naked eye, as if a spider web composed of thunder and lightning was woven in the palm of Lu Sheng's hand. A strong electric current attack swept Lu Sheng in an instant. This attack strength is difficult to withstand even in the innate realm.
And at the moment when Lu Sheng touched the prohibition, King Xiaoyao suddenly emitted a light on his body, and King Xiaoyao hurriedly took out a jade plate from his arms, and the jade card emitted a hazy white light.
"Lord Lu, look! Once someone touches the prohibition, I will feel it. β
Lu Sheng frowned and looked at the prohibition, the closet in front of him was intact, if it was a dragon slashing sword in it before, if you wanted to take it out, you had to contact the prohibition.
The corner of his eyes swept over the jade talisman in the hand of King Xiaoyao, and suddenly the essence in his eyes flashed, and he snatched the rune on the jade talisman and looked at it, and after identifying it for a few breaths, Lu Sheng raised his head solemnly.
"Where did this come from?"
King Xiaoyao looked confused, "This is the key to the ban, you must have this key to unlock the ban, and there is only one key and there is no second one." β
"This is the key? So, who built this treasure house for you, and who forbade it for you?"
"Twenty years ago, this king invited the master of the Luban Forbidden Gate to make it for me. β
"What about the master of the Luban Forbidden Gate?"
"Soon after the ban was made...... He died in an accident. Speaking of this, the eyes of the Easy King flashed with essence. Seeing this look, the corners of Lu Sheng's mouth slightly hooked up a sneer.
"I'm afraid it's not an accident, right?"
King Xiaoyao smiled and didn't refute, "Lord Lu, this was all decades ago, so don't talk about this." Lord Lu, is there anything wrong with this key of mine?"
"Of course there is!" Lu Sheng held up the jade talisman, a hazy light radiating out, and then a ghostly light and shadow formed on the lava wall opposite.
"Doesn't this grimace be strange to the King of Ease?"
"Strange, please forgive this king for being stupid, this king has been watching it for twenty years and has no feeling. β
"A few months ago, the king knew about the Hades on the spot, right? The mask that the Hades King was wearing at that time was this grimace. There are so many strange grimaces, why are they so coincidentally the same?"
After Lu Sheng's words fell, King Xiaoyao's face instantly turned dark.
"Hades?Yama Temple...... In other words, is the king's treasury a fictitious in the eyes of others?"
"It's brutal, but it's probably true. Moreover, doesn't the prince think that he is provoking the prince by turning the jade talisman into a grimace?"
After listening to Lu Sheng's words, King Xiaoyao's face darkened a little, and there were signs of direct violence.
"No!" Suddenly, the King of Joy exclaimed, "He died not long after he finished building the treasury, and he didn't have time to reveal the secrets of the treasury. This key is also unique. β
These words undoubtedly prove that the accident of the original builder was simply the mouth of the King of Freedom in order to keep the secret. But this is nothing in all dynasties.
Some may do it openly, and some do it secretly for the sake of their reputation. Throughout the ages, tomb builders have been the most dangerous profession, because when you build a tomb for a dignitary, they are likely to bury you directly in order to keep the secret of the tomb and worship the sky.
All have the saying that they would rather be tomb robbers than tomb makers.
The Loose King kills the builder, which is completely in line with his identity and his concept. But this was twenty years ago, and Lu Sheng couldn't manage it.
"Lord Wang, you are very naΓ―ve. So I ask you, was this rune key created by the builder improvised? Obviously not, it is possible to create a key in advance and then use it in the treasury. Maybe the treasury hasn't been built yet, and there are already several keys to open it. β
How can the King of Freedom not understand this truth?
However, looking at the empty closet in front of him, the face of the King of Freedom was hot and painful, and he felt himself...... Is he a fool?
"What about tracking down the thieves," ...... the King of Joy asked hesitantly.
"I have a more difficult case to deal with now, and I'm afraid I won't have that time in the short term. And the thieves didn't leave any clues, and they were able to enter and leave the Xiaoyao Mansion freely, I'm afraid the robbers were not idle people.
The Dragon Slaying Sword has been lost for twenty years, and it is not too bad to lose it again. When I finish the case in my hand, I will investigate it for the prince. β
β......β
Lu Sheng didn't really want to help Ji En find the Dragon Slaying Sword, but at present, it seems that the stealing of the Dragon Slaying Sword may be related to this murder and bloodletting. The thief didn't take anything else, and it was obviously not normal to stare at the dragon slaying sword.
Now that the Dragon Slaying Sword has been stolen, the two purposes of the murderer that Lu Sheng speculated before have collapsed to one, and that is ...... The murderer wants to slay the dragon.
And from the key of the Easy King, Lu Sheng grabbed another key clue. That is the mastermind behind the scenes, and it may still be this mysterious organization Yama Temple.
Is this endless?
Coming out of the Xiaoyao Palace, the night is sultry. Lu Sheng slowly walked along the sea of stars, listening to the sound of the waves rising and falling.
Originally, I thought that after the Hades King and Wu Chen were corrected, the so-called Yama Hall had disappeared. But I don't want to, people's layout is so far-reaching.
However, why do you want to focus on the Xuan Snake? Can Long Yuan live forever? This is a snake? Are they all blind?
Also, did the people of the Yama Hall mention that the King of Freedom made a treasure house? and then he was slaughtered by the King of Ease? Was it by accident or on purpose? If it was accidental, why did the people who killed the Yama Hall be able to get away with it until now?
These are like a knot formed by a mess, constantly churning in Lu Sheng's mind.
Suddenly, Lu Sheng's footsteps out stopped.
