Chapter 34: Suspicion of the Ancient Tomb
There is a large pavilion in the middle of the Tianlong Imperial Capital, there are many courtyards here, quiet in the middle of noisy, the surrounding environment is extremely beautiful, the flow of people who come and go here every day is huge, all kinds of people and so on.
This is the famous Tianji Pavilion in the imperial capital.
Legend has it that the background of the Tianji Pavilion is extremely deep, there are many outlets, almost all over the entire continent, and its strength is said to be far above some countries, so ordinary countries do not dare to provoke the Tianji Pavilion in their territory at all.
Walking into the Tianji Pavilion, there are several major halls, each of which is equipped with a large light curtain, and the light curtain is constantly flashing with a variety of information names.
Tianji Pavilion mainly sells this information to make huge profits.
The information released by Tianji Pavilion is basically reliable, of course, there will be exceptions, and if this happens, Tianji Pavilion will not bully customers, but will compensate as usual, so the reputation is excellent.
This kind of good reputation makes Tianji Pavilion not worry about running out of business at all, and the major forces often come here as soon as possible in order to obtain information to see if they can get the information they want.
In addition to this kind of public information trading, Tianji Pavilion also has some private information transactions.
For example, after Tianji Pavilion obtains some information, it will first notify the relevant parties, so as to tell each other that if the relevant parties are willing to pay a huge amount of money to buy, Tianji Pavilion will naturally not sell this information publicly.
In addition, if you have good information, and Tianji Pavilion happens to need it, and you think it is profitable, you will naturally buy it.
Tianji Pavilion's business is so good, there is nothing to worry about, but recently, the second pavilion elder has always been sad and in a bad mood.
This Erge old man is the red-faced old man who has repeatedly encountered ghosts in divination recently, named Bu Chengxin. He is the only soothsayer in the Heavenly Machine Pavilion here.
Since Li Yun became the object of Tianji Pavilion's attention, Bu Chengxin began to open a few hexagrams for him, but every time he opened an account, he did not succeed, and the result was extremely strange, making him not very confident in his divination skills.
"Report!" a subordinate hurried in.
Just when he was upset, a subordinate came in to report a message, and a customer came to sell information and asked to see the pavilion master by name.
Due to the absence of the cabinet master, the recent information transactions have been presided over by Bu Chengxin.
"Well, let's arrange for him to wait in room six. ”
"Yes, Ge Lao. ”
When Bu Chengxin walked into room six, he saw a blue-faced man in a black robe sitting drinking tea and waiting for him.
"I've been waiting for a long time, I don't know what information your customer wants to sell?" Bu Chengxin asked bluntly.
"Elder Bu Ge, what I want to sell here is information about an ancient tomb. The blue-faced man said.
"Tomb?!"
"Yes, the ancient tomb is in the south of the empire, and it will be born soon, according to records, it is the tomb of an ancient emperor, and it contains a great deal of wealth, and the wealth is rivaled by the country, and if anyone can get it, I am afraid that it will rise to the top and be unmatched. "The words of the blue-faced man are very seductive.
Bu Chengxin has been in Tianji Pavilion for a long time, and he has long been accustomed to the tone of customers who sell information, so he naturally won't believe it easily, and asked indifferently: "I don't know if there is any basis for what the customer said?"
The blue-faced man took out a stone from his body and handed it over.
Bu Chengxin took the stone and looked at it.
The stone appears to have fallen from a stone tablet with some inscriptions on it, and it is extremely heavy to hold.
Bu Chengxin touched the inscription with his hand, and his face gradually became a little solemn.
Suddenly, he stood up and said, "Please wait a moment, I'll come as soon as I go." ”
Hurrying out and coming to his room, he put the stone under a crystal and looked at it carefully, "Is it really an ancient thing?!"
Turning back and forth a few times, muttering to himself, and as if determined, he walked up to a painting by the wall, grabbed the rope on the right and rolled it up, revealing a huge crystal.
Hold the stone, press a button on the crystal, and wait.
After a while, a voice came out, "Tianlong Pavilion, what's the matter?"
"Report to the cabinet leader, the subordinates have obtained an object here, it is said to come from an ancient tomb, and the subordinates themselves have identified and estimated that it is an ancient thing, please ask the cabinet leader to help the subordinates verify it again to see if this information is accurate?"
"Bu Chengxin, it's too hasty to conclude that it is an ancient tomb based on one thing, right? Don't you know how expensive this kind of remote transmission is?"
"The subordinates are clear. But the quality of this thing is extremely high, and the subordinates have basically determined it, but I still want to ask the subordinates of the Pavilion Leader to make a decision again!" Bu Chengxin hurriedly said.
"Hmph, if this item is detected as waste, the cost of this message will be deducted from your monthly salary!"
"Yes!" Bu Chengxin's face changed slightly.
A luminous light suddenly burst out from the large crystal, covering the stone, and after a while, the luminous light disappeared.
Bu Chengxin waited anxiously.
After a while, the voice finally came again: "Count your luck, this stone, although I don't know what age it comes from, can be determined to be an ancient thing, maybe it is too far away, Bu Chengxin, if you get any benefits, you must think about my love for you this time!"
"Thank you Pavilion Leader, please rest assured, if you can get benefits, you will definitely not forget your great kindness!"
"Okay! happy cooperation!"
"Happy working together!"
Bu Chengxin finally showed a smile on his face, and the haze of recent days was swept away, and he hurriedly came to room No. 6 again.
The blue-faced man was still tasting the tea sent by Tianji Pavilion, and his expression was indifferent.
"How did the guest get this?" asked Bu Chengxin.
"I happened to pass by that place, fell into a sinkhole, and got it. I thought I couldn't run for my life, but I was lucky to find another way out, so I walked out. Later, I checked some local information and found that there was an ancient tomb in that place. The blue-faced man recounted.
"Why don't you go into the tomb and dig it yourself?"
"Bu Ge Lao, in the financial resources are limited, how can it be possible to organize a huge amount of manpower and material resources to excavate, besides, such a large-scale excavation, there will definitely be news leaks, just imagine, even if there is more property, it will be someone else's. Why don't I sell the news and make a real amount of money to spend? With the reputation of Tianji Pavilion, I don't think I will be embarrassed as a seller of information, right?"
"It's natural, and you can rest assured. Okay, I've decided to buy this information, you can make a price. ”
"A hundred high-grade stones. The blue-faced man said.
"You... OK?" Bu Chengxin was stunned.
"Sure. ”
"Okay!
Soon, the blue-faced man handed over the information such as the location of the ancient tomb he had obtained to Bu Chengxin, and left with a hundred high-grade Xuan Stones.
"Haha! Such a low price, selling such valuable information, it is unbelievable!" Bu Chengxin took the stone in his hand and rubbed it gently, with a smug smile on his face.
He looked at the information in his hand, his face tightened, and he muttered: "Listen to the northern foot of Chaocheng, Beikun Mountain... Hey, isn't this where Li Yun is? Why is it Li Yun again..."
......
In the several major halls of the Tianji Pavilion, a heavy news was suddenly displayed at the same time, "An ancient tomb was found in the territory of Tianlong, and it was confirmed by investigation that it was the tomb of an ancient emperor, and it was estimated that there was a wealth of rival countries in it, and it had not been excavated in any way. The price is 100 high-grade stones, and those who are interested should contact us to buy it quickly!"
Wow!
The news was thrown like a boulder into the lake, causing ripples, and the visitors in the hall were in an uproar.
Soon, the powerful people immediately paid the Tianji Pavilion to buy the information, and those who were not strong enough immediately left the scene and went to find powerful friends or family members to buy in a group, in short, almost everyone moved.
The news of the discovery of the ancient tomb spread throughout the imperial capital within half a day, and soon spread again.
......
In a splendid palace in the western part of the imperial capital, a golden-robed man was drinking and having fun with his generals, when suddenly a subordinate handed over a letter.
When he opened it, his face changed instantly, and he said to the next person: "Shi Chang, what do you think?"
A Confucian scribe below took the letter and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, this news has been confirmed by Tianji Pavilion, and there is a good chance that it is true. ”
"Are we going to dig out?"
"Your Highness, it is estimated that this news has spread throughout the imperial capital, and if you want to come to the Third Highness, you will definitely send someone to excavate, even if we can't excavate, we can't let them succeed, so my subordinates think that we must immediately send someone to see what is going on. ”
"Yes, according to you. Who should we send?"
"Gu Liquan and Le Jie are two masters. ”
"Oh, why send both masters out?"
"Your Highness, this competition is bound to be extremely fierce, and it is estimated that the Third Highness will also send two masters, Ye Guang and Zhou Hai, so only by sending two people at the same time can we fight against them. Shi Chang replied.
"It makes sense, then ask the two masters to select a hundred Xuanwei and set off immediately. Be sure to stop Long Hao's team and sabotage their actions. The golden-robed man said to the two old men under the tent.
"Yes!"
The two old men took the letter, looked at it, and hurried out of the palace.
"Hmph, the ancient tomb?!! If there is really a wealth that rivals the wealth of the country, then..."
......
The palace of the Third Highness was full of people, and everyone was discussing the bombshell news obtained not long ago.
"What do you think?" asked Third Highness Long Hao.
"Your Highness, this ancient tomb, we must get, if we succeed, in the competition for the position of prince, we can recover the disadvantage of insufficient financial resources. Strategist Wu Zhi said.
"Yes, Mr. Wu is very right. The old man in red, Zhou Hai, said.
The Third Highness nodded, and asked the black-clothed old man Ye Guangdao, "What does Old Ye think?"
"Yes, even if it can't be successful, it can't be found by Long Kui. ”
"What Ye Lao said is extremely true, if His Highness succeeds in digging up the treasure again, we will fall into a disadvantage. Wu Zhi echoed.
"Well, since this matter is so important, I'm going to go with you to find out. Third Highness Long Hao said.
"It's... Your Highness, this side of the palace must not be left unguarded. Wu Zhi said.
"Well, then you stay, command the palace guards, and have information to pass on the book. Long Hao groaned.
"Yes, please rest assured, Your Highness. Wu Zhiying said.
