After experiencing the dangers of the Ten Halls of Hell and the Nine Palaces of Heaven, almost everyone believed that there would be surprises waiting for everyone behind the heavy stone gate.

In fact, there is surprise, but there is joy.

Behind the stone door is another stone chamber the size of a stone chamber, covered in a thick layer of dust and cobwebs everywhere, and it is clear that it has been silent for a long time.

This stone chamber is a mess, a dilapidated sight, full of wide chests, reminiscent of the legendary coveted Ming Tombs.

But.......

The boxes were empty.

The copper lock on it has traces of being artificially pried open, and it is easy to find scattered jewels on the ground, just like a huge sapphire in Yue Leiting's hand now.

But Yue Thunder couldn't laugh at all, judging from his years of experience in robbing tombs, it was obvious that someone had come here in advance, and the things in the stone room had already been looted.

Yue Thunder gasped for breath and smashed the sapphire in his hand to the ground in a rage.

"Damn, Lao Tzu worked so hard to find this place, but it turned out to be empty."

I was somewhat disappointed, and sighed heavily, if this is really the location of the Ming Fourteenth Tomb, it seems that it is too late from the current situation, what gold, silver and jewelry are in it, I don't care, but the Nine Heavens Hidden Dragon is definitely not here anymore.

Thinking of my promise to Wu Zetian and Wei Yong's aggressiveness, I sat on the ground against the wall with a tired face.

Although Yue Qianling was also very disappointed in her heart, she could see my appearance, her expression could see that she felt a faint pain in her heart, when she pinned all her hopes on one thing, it turned out to be so disappointing, and anyone would collapse.

"You don't want to be like this, although the treasure is gone, but at least we have proved that the Ming Fourteenth Tomb really exists, and you have contributed a lot to this."

I looked up at Yue Qianling's grateful smile.

"What if it proves it, an empty treasure has no meaning."

Liu Hao still didn't give up, and led his men to search everywhere in the stone room, Xiao Lianshan also looked back and forth, there was a platform next to the wall of the stone room, which was finely polished, carved from white marble, and three arrows were erected on it.

When Xiao Lianshan wiped the dust off the body of the arrow, the three arrows actually emitted a dazzling golden light under the illumination of the flames.

Xiao Lianshan was delighted to see it for a while, these three arrows were actually made of gold, and he pulled out the three golden arrows with all his strength, and said happily.

"Brother, there are three arrows here, pure gold."

I have been a little lost since I came in, and when I heard Xiao Lianshan's words, I immediately got up from the ground and said loudly and vigilantly.

"Don't mess around in the room!"

Xiao Lianshan stood in place stunned, looking at me with such a nervous expression, holding the three golden arrows at a loss.

When the three arrows immediately made a white marble arrow frame, with a low loud noise, the stone door that had just entered suddenly closed, and after a few rumbling noises from outside, everything returned to calm.

"This ...... How did this door close, how did we get out? Liu Hao said in a panic.

"It was Lianshan who touched the mechanism, and now the stone gate is locked, and even the entrance where we came in just now is closed, and we can't go back." Yue Qianling said anxiously after pushing the stone door hard.

Yue Thunder unbuttoned his shirt, took a deep breath and said with a wry smile.

"It's okay now, people die for money, birds die for food, I didn't find the Ming Fourteenth Tomb, it seems that my life is going to be left here today, but it's a pity that it hurt you, I knew that this really shouldn't involve you."

Qiu Nuo looked at the closed stone door and then at the golden arrow in Xiao Lianshan's hand, and said in surprise.

"Doesn't make sense? If someone had been here, these three golden arrows were worth a lot of money, so why didn't they take them at the time? Could it be that the people who came in early knew about this organ? ”

Gu Anqi thought about it and shook her head and said.

"Zhu Yuanzhang left the Ming Fourteen Tombs to the emperors of later generations, and the emperors who came in must know this organ, so it should be the emperors of the Ming Dynasty who came in advance to take things away and retreated, but Chongzhen has not touched the Ming Fourteenth Tombs, so it should be other people who come in, and it is impossible for others to know this organ."

I had walked back and forth several times in the closed stone hut, and suddenly I said meaningfully.

"We came in from the underground palace of the Great Mercy and Grace Temple, and the distance between them is a few hundred meters, or even longer, and we came in all the way down, which means that we should be in a deep place in the ground now...... Do you feel dizzy? ”

"Dizzy?!"

Everyone looked at each other and then shook their heads, indicating that they didn't feel dizzy.

"Since you don't get dizzy, it means that there is air here." I said nonchalantly. "There is still air ...... a few hundred meters underground"

"I know!" Qiu Nuo also thought of something and said excitedly. "If you want to build a stone chamber at such a deep ground, you must first build a secondary ventilation pipe, otherwise there will be no air for construction here, that is...... There should also be an exit here. ”

"And the exit?!" Yue Lei Ting was originally discouraged, but when he heard that there was an exit, he immediately came to his senses and said to Liu Hao. "What are you still doing in a daze, telling them to hurry up and find it."

"Brother Ting, don't move the things in the room!" I hurriedly stopped and said seriously. "Zhu Yuanzhang designed the organ to prevent other people from coming in, now that we are trapped, we will look for a way out everywhere, Zhu Yuanzhang must also be able to think of it, in case it touches other organs again, since it is not the emperor of the Ming Dynasty who comes in, Zhu Yuanzhang can burn the jade stone here."

Yue Thunder also agreed with my words and put his hand down.

"Or ...... Why don't I put the arrow back. Xiao Lianshan said at a loss.

Gu Anqi stared at the arrow in Xiao Lianshan's hand and whispered.

"Qiunuo is right, the people who came in took other things, why did these three valuable golden arrows stay?"

I stared at the closed stone door and didn't look back, and suddenly asked meaningfully.

"Three arrows...... Lianshan, do you see if these three arrows are engraved with the words "Caitian", "Tian" and "Natian"? ”

"Brother, there really is, how do you know?"

"This is not an ordinary arrow, this is Zhu Yuanzhang's talisman!" Yue Qianling said in surprise after hearing this.

"Talismans?"

I nodded and said calmly.

"At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang controlled the soldiers and horses of the Nine Roads, because of the continuous war, he used golden arrows instead of military talismans, and later Xu Da led the army, holding three of the arrows in his hand, which were the three branches of Caitian, Tiantian and Natian."

"How could Xu Da's talisman be here?" Gu Anqi asked puzzled.

"Yes, I don't understand, after Zhu Yuanzhang unified the world, the golden arrow talisman was invalidated, and the later talisman was specially made, why are there these three arrows here?"

I slowly turned around and said thoughtfully.

"These three arrows make Zhu Yuanzhang the emperor! Without these three arrows, Zhu Yuanzhang would not be able to establish the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Huh? This...... What does that mean? Yue Qianling asked in surprise.

"Zhu Yuanzhang Dingjiangshan's last stop is to attack Jiqing, Zhu Yuanzhang personally led the troops to attack Jiqing in three ways, and the commander of the army is Xu Da, Zhu Yuanzhang said that the soldiers and horses in his hands were handed over to Xu Da to control it, and with three arrows as evidence, Xu Da took ten days to break through Jiqing, and changed Jiqing to Yingtian." I said slowly.

"I know this, it's the same as recorded in the history of the Ming Dynasty, but what does it have to do with Zhu Yuanzhang becoming the emperor?"

"Whoever has soldiers and horses in troubled times is the king, although Zhu Yuanzhang captured Jiqing, he suddenly realized that he had made an unforgivable mistake."

“…… Terracotta! Zhu Yuanzhang has no soldiers and horses in his hands, and the three arrows of the certificate of commanding the military power are in Xu Da's hands. "Qiu Nuo Bingxue is smarter, and said lightly." Xu Da is a handsome talent, and he has soldiers and horses in his hands, and it is possible to change his surname if he is against the country. ”

"There is no record of Xu Da's rebellion in history?" Yue Qianling said in surprise.

The walls in the stone room are carved with reliefs, and it is easy to see that they are the big and small battles that Zhu Yuanzhang fought in his life, and it clearly shows Zhu Yuanzhang's life like a documentary.

I said lightly while looking at the reliefs carefully.

"Xu Da doesn't have it, but it doesn't mean that Zhu Yuanzhang won't think like this, so after capturing Jiqing, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Li Shanchang to send three things to Xu Da overnight."

"What's that?"

"Golden Sword, Golden Seal, and Golden Clothing!" I say.

"This ...... This is the etiquette when ascending the throne and becoming the emperor, only the emperor of the Son of Heaven can have these three things, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Xu Da these? Does he want Xu Da to be the emperor?! Yue Qianling asked dumbfounded.

I looked intently at the relief and said calmly.

"Of course not, Zhu Yuanzhang is following the example of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin to release military power with a cup of wine, which means that if you Xu Da wants to be the emperor, I will give it to you in this world, of course, this is a kind word, Xu Da understood Zhu Yuanzhang's mind at the time, didn't say a word, let Li Shanchang bring back one thing, Zhu Yuanzhang was satisfied after seeing it, changed the country name Hongwu, and ascended the throne as the emperor."

"And here's the thing! So what did Xu Da ask Li Shanchang to bring to Zhu Yuanzhang? Yue Thunder asked curiously.

My hand slowly lifted up, and I smiled lightly as I pointed to something on the relief.

"This is it!"

Everyone gathered around, and looked in the direction of my finger, and there was a broken arrow carved in stone hidden in the relief, and in the relief of soldiers and horses fighting thousands of people, this truncated arrow was very cleverly hidden, and it was impossible to find it if you didn't look carefully.

"Broken arrow?" Everyone asked puzzled.

"Xu Da broke three arrows in front of Li Shanchang, which was equivalent to destroying the talisman, and asked Li Shanchang to bring it to Zhu Yuanzhang, and also said that he had no second thoughts." I said with a faint smile. "This is also the reason why Xu Da was able to die well in the end among the founding fathers."

"I still don't understand, what is Zhu Yuanzhang's purpose in leaving this here?"

I smiled and said unhurriedly.

"Because no one has been here, everything is an illusion arranged by Zhu Yuanzhang, only the emperors of later generations know about Xu Da's return of the broken arrow, and it is impossible for outsiders to know, because this is related to Zhu Yuanzhang's belly, he will not think that others will know that he is narrow-minded."

"Since this is an illusion arranged by Zhu Yuanzhang, that is to say...... Behind this stone chamber is ...... Something else? Yue Qianling asked excitedly and nervously.

I didn't answer, I confidently pressed the broken arrow carved in stone, and the closed wall at the back of the stone chamber slowly opened.
