At that time, there was an oasis near the Damascus desert that flowed for thousands of years, which could be eaten by Cushing's family, and they lived carefree. Cushing's research was mainly in mathematics and astronomy, and his family had a very unique study of Damascus and geography for generations, and he was one of the best polymaths in the region.

Just when Cushing's family was living an ordinary and fulfilling life, trouble came to the door!

At that time, the emir governor of Damascus, Schiller, was a greedy and greedy official, who liked to loot the people's fat and ointment, he amassed countless treasures over the years, because he was afraid that the treasures would be denounced or robbed by robbers, Schiller racked his brains and came up with an idea: find someone who knows the nearby desert area best, and let him preside over the construction of an underground palace!

As long as Schiller hid his looted treasure in the dungeon, and set up countless murderous ambushes on the main roads in and out to prevent thieves and other ill-intentioned people, then nothing would be lost!

The vicious Schiller quickly selected the person who built the underground palace, and that person was the famous scholar Cushing near Damascus.

Knowing that there was such a capable person as Cushing, Schiller certainly had no reason to let him go, he first sent someone to carry valuable gifts, and urged him to meet him at his official residence three times and twice, but Cushing politely refused because he was unwell.

In the end, Schiller also suddenly realized that because his reputation was too stinky, Cushing, who was upright by nature, would rather call himself sick at home than meet him! Annoyed and angry, Schiller led his wolf-like minions directly to Cushing's house, and in front of Cushing, the vicious Schiller slashed the old servant to death with a knife, and tied up Cushing's two sons and one grandson with ropes!

Seeing his children and grandchildren being arrested, Cushing trembled with anger, but he was helpless, and was finally forced to agree to Schiller's request to force him to build a dungeon, and Cushing's family was all escorted to the dungeon to work as coolies.

Three years, it took three years, in order to build this treasure house of the underground palace, the exhausted Cushing boiled his gray hair into a piece of white frost, and his face was haggard and wrinkled, but when the underground palace was about to be fully completed, a craftsman who worked in it fled to Cushing's house without forgetting his life, and he brought amazing news: the old man's children and grandchildren were crushed to death in the first year of the construction of the underground palace, because of the landslide!

Schiller deliberately blocked the news in order to let Cushing build a dungeon for himself with peace of mind, and whoever dared to tell the news of the death of the old man's children and grandchildren would be killed!

Hearing this news, the old scholar Cushing was like five thunderbolts, he fainted with a roll of his eyes, and the craftsman took care of him for a long time, and told the woke up Cushing a news, the reason why he fled was because he overheard the overseer saying that he had received a secret order from Schiller, and on the day the construction of the underground palace was completed, none of the more than 300 craftsmen remained, and all of them were killed to prevent leakage!

This craftsman's family, both old and young, had hoped to reunite with his family after finishing his labor, but who would have thought that when he heard the news, he immediately got out of the crypt he accidentally discovered while working, and fled desperately!

Thinking that the prefect of the emir, Schiller, was so vicious and ruthless in killing people! Cushing was so angry that he shuddered, he sent away the fleeing craftsmen, thought about it himself, and decided to change some of the mechanisms in the dungeon privately, and on the day of completion, once Schiller's people wanted to seal the exit and trap all the craftsmen, Cushing could also use the mechanism to secretly let the craftsmen go!

Just do it, and a battle of wits between good and evil begins! The days flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the completion of the treasure house of the underground palace arrived, and the overseer and a few subordinates who were usually like wolves and tigers changed their usual bad attitude towards the craftsmen by beating and scolding, and instead moved out a lot of wine and meat for everyone to eat and drink!

But the craftsmen were informed by Cushing in advance, knowing that the food was poisoned, everyone quietly pretended to eat, and while the overseer was not prepared, he and a dozen dogs were all knocked unconscious and tied with ropes, and thrown into the desert inaccessible like this, leaving them to fend for themselves!

Cushing appeared at this time, he brought a large number of camels, handed them to the craftsmen, and told them to ride as fast as they could, and he sacrificed himself to lead away the pursuers led by the emir's prefect Schiller, and in the end, Cushing was blocked by the wicked people in a dead end in the dungeon, and he smiled happily and activated the mechanism, and died with Schiller and his minions......

"I see!" After listening to the grievances between Schiller and Cushing, Guan Heng sighed a lot: "Alas, good people...... But in the end, you can only end up with the bad guys, it's really not worth it! ”

"Hehehe! There's nothing wrong with that! The old scholar Cushing smiled and said: "Guan Heng, don't forget that I also saved the lives of hundreds of craftsmen, and they will spread out in the future, and I will count the number of people I have saved!" Saving them with my old life is a lot of money! ”

"Because of this! Look at ......" Cushing spread his hands, stood up and turned around twice: "I can survive in this world for a long time and continue to do my learning, and there is nothing wrong with it!" ”

"You are a casual and open-minded person!" Guan Heng smiled: "This is something I didn't expect!" ”

"But your love of learning is the same as that of my teacher, Howard. Stark is a lot like that! Guan Heng said with a smile: "I will definitely introduce you to each other when I have time, you two old scholars will definitely become friends!" ”

"Well, I'd love to see him when you say that!" Cushing rubbed his long hair and asked, "Where is Mr. Howard now?" ”

Guan Heng told the story of his acquaintance with Howard, which was novel and exciting, which made Cushing, a well-read old scholar, amazed: "Very good, it seems that I must go and visit Mr. Howard, this is a wonderful person!" ”

"Then let's do it, when this exploration of ancient ruins is over, I will take you back to my home in New City to see Uncle Huo!" Guan Heng lowered his head and thought about it for a while: "Well, now, let's settle the matter of going to the underground palace to find the genealogy of the Schiller family!" ”

"If you go to the dungeon, I can go with you!" Cushing grinned and said, "I presided over the construction of it, and I am very familiar with the inside of the underground palace!" ”

"Thank you, Mr. Cushing!" Guan Heng smiled: "I'm really grateful, in order to facilitate the movement, I hope you don't mind entering the small space of the tattoo on the back of my hand for a while!" ”

"Oh, a small space where ghosts can be hidden!" Cushing twisted his beard and smiled: "It's really rare, then I'll go in!" ”

Tattooed Cushing with the Ghost Devouring Beast, Guan Heng didn't waste time, put on the exorcist battle armor with a bang, flew directly to the direction that Cushing pointed to, and found the location of the dungeon without much effort!
