Chapter 391: Underground Treasure Vault
Guo Tong said and handed Xu Dong a booklet, "Your Majesty, the items in the warehouse are registered according to the number of the warehouse, and if you want to know which items are placed in the warehouse, you must check this booklet." ”
Xu Dong took the booklet and looked at it, the number of the warehouse and the name of the item written on it did not correspond to what was written on the 'door' of the warehouse, and it may be true only that what was registered on the booklet.
"What's the benefit of that? ”
"Your Majesty, this kind of warehousing method was inherited from the hands of the ancestors, probably to prevent the people who manage the treasury from stealing themselves. ”
Xu Dong understood that this booklet was in the hands of the official in charge of the state treasury, and others could not know which items were placed in which warehouse, or even which warehouse was empty and which was not empty, so it was not easy to steal.
He rummaged through the booklet for the warehouse where the spiritual 'medicine' was stored, and it turned out that the number of this warehouse was 225, and he asked Guo Yan to lead him to the warehouse, saying that he wanted to check what goods were in it.
Guo Tong took him to a position in the depths of the warehouse, and the 'door' of a warehouse was written "No. 225, silkworm cocoon", Xu Dong couldn't help but smile when he saw it, and the warehouse where the spiritual 'medicine' was stored was written "silkworm cocoon".
The heavy warehouses were opened, and Xu Dong saw that this warehouse was much larger than other warehouses, and he carefully looked at the goods stored on the shelves, all of which were extremely valuable high-grade spiritual 'medicines'.
There are thousands of varieties of spiritual 'medicines' stored in this warehouse, some of which are made in the country of Ratuo, and some of which are collected from conquered countries.
Xu Dong was not excited, as a monk who majored in Danding, he would be excited for a long time even if he saw a high-level spiritual 'medicine', he was now in the realm of spiritual 'medicine', and he couldn't be excited.
But he quickly suppressed his excitement, as the current monarch of the country of Ratuo, being too excited in front of a courtier was tantamount to indiscretion, and saying nothing could make a subordinate look down on him.
He took out a slip and handed it to Guo Yan, "Guo Aiqing, I have a list here, you can help me prepare these spiritual 'medicines' according to the order." ”
Guo Tong took the list from Xu Dong's hand and saw that there were more than 300 kinds of spiritual 'medicines' densely listed on it, and each of them was a high-level spiritual 'medicine', and several of them were still top-level spiritual 'medicines'.
He couldn't help but open his mouth wide, he had been in charge of the treasury for decades, and he had 'served' the monarch of the Ratuo Kingdom for several dynasties, and he had never had to extract so many high-level spiritual 'medicines' at one time, so he hesitated a little.
"The Emperor...... Your Majesty, you have to withdraw so much ...... Spiritual 'medicine', dry ...... Do. ”
"Guo Aiqing, I repeat my will, I want to pick up some goods in the royal treasury, that is, to find a few 'doors' and 'medicines', you immediately help me take these 'medicines' from the shelves according to the names of the 'medicines' prescribed on the list. ”
The tone of Xu Dong and Guo Yan's speech changed, one calling himself "I", one "royal" treasury, and one "my will", which was enough to emphasize his power.
The meaning couldn't be clearer: I am the supreme emperor of the kingdom of Ratha, this is the royal treasury, everything in this treasury is mine, I can take as much as I want, as long as I want.
Guo Yi is an old minister, no matter how stupid he is, he can't go anywhere, he figured out the importance of Xu Dong's words, the newly enthroned emperor is obviously not a vegetarian.
Besides, he suddenly remembered that when he was at the court meeting in the "Shouqiao Palace" before, Xu Dong promised to supply 500,000 spirit stones to the treasury as soon as he opened his mouth.
He hurriedly gave Xu Dong a smile, "Okay, your majesty, you wait a while, and the old minister will immediately fetch it for you according to the name of the 'medicine' on the list." ”
Seeing Guo Yan's attitude take a big turn, Xu Dong felt angry and funny, so he stood still with his hands behind his back, and Guo Yan was busy taking the spiritual medicine from the shelf.
It took a full 'spent' hour before Guo Yan finished his work sweating profusely, "Your Majesty, almost all the spiritual 'medicines' you want are here, but there are still three top-level spiritual 'medicines' that are not available, and there are really no ones in this treasury." ”
"There are only three top-level spiritual 'medicines' missing, well, this is already good, Guo Aiqing, you are busy, take a breath." ”
Guo Yan was a little flattered, and hurriedly said flatteringly, "Your Majesty, it is an honor for the old minister to have the opportunity to do things for the emperor." ”
Xu Dong's ears echoed the conversation with the Holy Infant in the basement of the "Shouqiao Palace", "Master, does this 'Spiritual Cultivation and Fetal Pill' need to be refined with so many kinds of spiritual 'medicines'?" ”
The Holy Infant said, "The 'Nourishing Soul and Fetal Pill' is different from the ordinary pills, the ingredients it requires are extremely complex, to say that these more than three hundred kinds are still few, and the pills that are refined can only be effective for monks with good spiritual roots. ”
"The number of ordinary spiritual roots for monks has to be doubled at least, and as for the monks with miscellaneous spiritual roots or those who do not have spiritual roots, refining the 'Spiritual Cultivation and Fetal Pill' requires thousands of spiritual 'medicines', and many monks have stopped because they can't find these spiritual 'medicines'. ”
Xu Dong said, "Well, Master, it's not easy to find all these more than 300 kinds of spiritual 'medicine'. ”
The Holy Child said, "Well, I estimate that I can find some in the treasury of the country of Ratuo, but I don't have much hope, I will be surprised to find more than two hundred kinds of elixirs, and the other elixirs will have to be found elsewhere." ”
He didn't expect it to be better than he expected, and he actually found these spiritual 'medicines' in the treasury, but the three top-level spiritual 'medicines' were missing, and he went to the treasure house to look for them, but he couldn't guarantee that he could find those three top-level spiritual 'medicines'.
"Guo Yan, take me to the underground treasure house to have a look, maybe there are a few things that I can see. ”
Guo Yan hurriedly responded, "Okay, Your Majesty." ”
Xu Dong followed Guo Tong to the outside of the treasury and saw six naked eunuchs lining up at the 'gate', these eunuchs were carrying goods for the treasury, and two officials in court clothes were searching the eunuchs.
"Guo Yan, how did you let these fathers-in-law strip naked for inspection. ”
Guo Yan said, "Back to the emperor, these eunuchs steal into 'sex', even if they are naked, they can take things out, and every year they steal things, not to mention the loss of tens of thousands of crystals." ”
Xu Dong felt a little surprised, he deliberately stopped and watched from the side, but wanted to see how these eunuchs were naked and hid things on their bodies and took them out.
The two officials saw the emperor and hurriedly bowed, and the six naked eunuchs suddenly saw the emperor arrive, and they also hurriedly knelt on the ground, and at this moment an unexpected thing happened.
"Poof, poof, poof. ”
"Poof, poof, poof. ”
When the six eunuchs knelt down in a panic, they suddenly bent down and snorted one after another, and with the explosion of the air flow, they each held a handful of spirit stones, and when they saw this scene, the atmosphere on the field suddenly tensed.
It turned out that these eunuchs' job today was to carry the spirit stone, and when they were about to get off work, they poured the spirit stone into their own ** and brought it out, but they didn't expect to catch up with the emperor to arrive, and when they saluted the emperor, the theft was defeated.
According to the law of the Luo Tuo Kingdom, the theft of the spirit stone of the treasury is to kill the head, Guo Yan sent in a few guards from outside, and asked the guards to drag the six eunuchs out and behead them.
The six eunuchs were suddenly frightened and their faces turned pale, but their brains were not bad, and they knew that only the emperor's words could save their heads, so they hurriedly kowtowed like garlic and begged the emperor for mercy.
"The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life. ”
"Your Majesty, I will never dare to steal anything from the treasury again. ”
"Your Majesty, my family still has my father and mother to be supported, so the emperor will spare my life. ”
Xu Dong waved his hand at those guards, "I think they are pitiful, I will let them go today, if I dare to steal the things in the treasury next time, I will not spare them." ”
Guo Tong and Xu Dong left the royal treasury and went to the "Transformation 'Jing' Palace" located at the southern end of the Chunyang Palace, which was also guarded by hundreds of guards, because there was an underground treasure house hidden under this palace.
The two walked into the "Transformation 'Essence' Palace", and found the entrance of the underground treasure house through a secret passage, and saw that there were two heavy stone vaults at the entrance, and a heavy gold lock hung on the 'door' of the stone vault.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has to stop here, and he can't accompany you into the underground treasury, because the founding monarch has special regulations on the underground treasury, and non-successor monarchs themselves are not allowed to enter the underground treasury. ”
Xu Dong took out the golden key from the treasure bag, and the voice of the former emperor Zhao Lun sounded in his ears, "This is the key to the underground treasure house of the Luotuo Kingdom, and now I will 'hand' it over to you, which means that I have completely abandoned the Luotuo Kingdom......
Did Zhao Lun really kill Luo Tuoguo like this, Xu Dong felt helpless, he would never be able to guess Zhao Lun's thoughts.
He opened the golden lock on the 'door' of the stone vault, pushed open the two heavy stone 'doors' and walked into the underground treasure house alone.
The space of this underground treasure house is not large, the length and width are no more than ten feet, it is an irregular rectangle, and on all sides there are several cabinets made of pure gold against the wall, which emit a dull golden light.
Xu Dong glanced at the cabinets, each of which was filled with cultivation items, one of which was stacked with exercise cheats, one with spiritual weapons, and the other with pills.
He casually opened a book of exercises and saw that this was a demon 'gate' thaumaturgy, but when he opened another book, it was an inner pill exercise, and when he opened the third book, it was a Shura martial arts scripture, and the fourth book was an evil 'door' strange skill......
Looking at the magic weapons placed in the cabinet next to him, he didn't know most of these magic weapons, let alone the mana and use of these things, including a few magic swords, two copper compasses, and a few magic tools such as banners......
"I have to 'hand' over a few words to you, you can choose a few exercises and cheats in the underground treasure house to cultivate, but before you cultivate to the distraction realm, you'd better not move those few spiritual weapons, because the anti-devouring power of these spiritual weapons is very strong. ”
He remembered Zhao Lun's words, and didn't dare to touch these things without permission, but his eyes couldn't help but stare at something, on the top of the cabinet where the magic weapons were placed, there was a strange thing shining with blue light.
