Chapter 499: The Valley of the Lampposts, Guarded by the Northern Tomb

Li Ang couldn't help frowning: "How can this place be so similar to the underground palace we saw in the Yang Kingdom?" ”

"Shhhh

"Be quiet, don't be heard."

The girl hurriedly scolded: "Otherwise, we will be in trouble, this place is a forbidden place." ”

"Let's hurry away so we don't get into trouble."

She reminded her, and then ran with Li Ang to the other end away from the Yongdao crossing.

Leon followed the girl, constantly observing her surroundings.

He also pulled out a pen and paper, jotted down the pattern around him, and then continued to run forward.

However, he was half a beat slower than before, as if he was worried about being discovered.

Li Ang muttered in his heart, could it be that outsiders are not allowed to enter this tomb?

"Whew-"

While Leon was chattering, suddenly a jeep with flashing lights drove by.

There were two men and two women sitting in the car, each wearing sunglasses, masks, and hats.

They were also carrying hot weapons, and they shot without saying a word, and they looked extremely fierce.

The girl was startled when she saw this, hid behind Li Ang, and urged Li Ang to flee quickly.

Li Ang also took the girl's hand with his backhand, preparing to run away.

"Bang-"

But before Leon could take a few steps, the jeep crashed into a rock.

The stone smashed the girl's sole.

She screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

At the same time, the jeep door was pulled, and three men and women pounced on the girl in unison.

They grinned as they reached for the girl's arm.

The girl struggled but to no avail, and could only be dragged to the ruins behind them.

She cried out for mercy: "Don't, don't ......"

"Whew-"

At this moment, the tomb, which had been silent, suddenly lit up.

The lights are bright, and the eyes are stinging.

Subsequently, more than a dozen lampposts lit up one after another, illuminating the entire valley.

Li Ang squinted his eyes and glanced at it, and soon recognized that the pattern on the lamppost was similar to that of the underground palace, a white lotus flower in an arc, blooming with indifference and coldness.

Li Ang's heart was slightly shocked, he had read a lot of Buddhist materials, and naturally knew that the white lotus was a symbol of Buddhism.

"Bang Bang Bang-"

Without waiting for Li Ang to take a closer look, there was a burst of applause in the depths of the tomb.

The applause was rapid and rhythmic.

In the dead silence, Li Ang heard the sound and looked over, and saw a row of figures standing at the end.

There are eight people in total.

The leader wore gray cloth shoes and a goatee, and looked to be about seventy years old.

The remaining seven were dressed in Tang or military uniforms, with straight waists.

"Hello, welcome to my graveyard!"

The old man looked at a man and a woman in front of him and smiled slightly:

"But don't panic, I'm not interested in you."

"I just want to ask you for a favor tonight."

"I want to ask, who killed the Netherwolves?"

"Don't worry, I will pay and I won't treat you badly."

The old man's voice was warm and kind, with a hint of bewitchment: "I am willing to be friends with you!" ”

"Who are you?"

The girl stared at each other and shouted, "Why are you burying your bones here?" ”

Li Ang was also at a loss, completely unable to figure out the identity of the old man.

"Hahaha, it's really the first time you've entered here."

The old man laughed: "But I won't introduce it." ”

"I am the owner of this tomb, my name is Yuan Jie."

"As for who the owner of the tomb is, it's a secret for now, but you'll find out sooner or later."

"Because I'm an honest person."

He looked at Li Ang and the girl with blazing eyes, and also glanced at Li Ang's chest.

Li Ang was stunned: "Yuan Jie? Beiling Guardian? ”

"Yo, young man, you also know how to guard Beiling?"

The old man smiled brightly: "It's really not simple, which family are you from?" ”

"I just happened to know a person surnamed Yuan, so I guessed a little when I heard that he was the guardian of Beiling."

Li Ang smiled faintly: "I am not a nephew of a big family, let alone a guardian, but an unemployed vagrant." ”

"You're not a Guardian, so you know a lot."

Yuan Jie looked playful: "Can you tell me, what kind of tomb is this?" ”

"How do I know what kind of tomb this is?"

Li Ang rolled his eyelids: "I'm not a feng shui master. ”

"Don't be stubborn, young man, you must know the secrets here, otherwise how could you come here?"

Yuan Jie's eyes flashed with wisdom: "And there is not only a mausoleum here, but also a lot of burial goods, I think you must know its origin." ”

"I don't really know anything about this place, I got here by mistake, and I'm in a coma, and I'm here when I wake up."

Leon shrugged his shoulders and tried to show his innocence: "I knew that I wouldn't be here for such an inexplicable reason. ”

"Whatever you say, you have to tell the secrets here."

Yuan Jie still insisted on her judgment: "This is not only a test for me, but also a painstaking arrangement for me. ”

Li Ang sighed: "Senior, who are you?" ”

"It doesn't matter who I am."

"I'll ask you now, would you like to help me and help the master here?"

Yuan Jie smiled: "You helped me, I'll send you out immediately." ”

"Helped you, can I get out?"

Li Ang was first surprised by Yuan Jie's arrogance, and then asked, "Can you let me leave?" ”

"Are you here alone?"

He added: "Aren't you afraid I'm a bad person? ”

"There are no bad people in this world, only good people and bad people, since I dare to keep you, I am naturally not afraid of you harming me."

Yuan Jie responded generously: "But you'd better not be a bad person, otherwise you won't survive." ”

"I won't hurt you, but I hope I can walk out safe and sound."

Li Ang smiled: "Otherwise, you have so many treasures, wouldn't I be empty?" ”

"Don't worry, as long as you say the answer, I will definitely keep my promise to send you out."

"And this is a secret I want to know, I want to find out."

Yuan Jie was polite: "I don't want to die here in a daze, I need foreign aid like you." ”

"Okay!"

Leon thought for a moment and nodded: "I can provide you with a little news, but I won't tell you much." ”

He decided to take a gamble, what if this tomb was Yuan Jie's?

The scale of such a large underground palace was enough to attract him to snoop.

"No problem!"

Yuan Jie was happy: "You say." ”

Li Ang whispered: "Inherit the jade seal of the country!" ”

Yuan Jie's eyes were sharp: "The jade seal of the country? ”

"That's right!"

Li Ang took out the hidden heirloom jade seal from his pocket and dangled it in front of Yuan Jie:

"It does exist, not only is it the only true dragon thing in China, but also symbolizes authority and status."

"I guess it's not excavated from the tomb of Song Zu, or something left here by some prince and noble."

He whispered, "I thought this was just an ornament." ”
