Chapter 335 – The King’s Palace in the Mountain

Updated 2013-05-19

“Building a King’s Palace in the Mountain is a big project, if they didn’t want to be detected, they would definitely seal it up, and it’s impossible to leave behind any machine brackets.” Ye Xi said.

“This King’s Palace in the Mountain is definitely not a mausoleum, so it’s conceivable that it should be some kind of secret base.” Zhang Ming said, “Since it is a base, there must be a machine bracket, although this terrain is a treasure land, it is also a Taoist ten great caves, surely it will not allow anyone to become any mausoleum, and this area is also really not suitable for the dead to live in, but rather suitable for the living to live in.”

Ye Xi said, “But how can we find the witches like this?”

“Under the feet.” Qin Yang suddenly said, “Right under the feet.”

“What?” Zhang Ming and Ye Xi looked at him in disbelief, before looking at their own feet, which were simply rocks, where was there any witches?

Qin Yang, however, pulled out the ghost god halberd, rushed to the gap and inserted it, and then pressed hard, the two immediately found next to the stone seems to be some slight trembling, the heart of the heart of a happy hastily help Qin Yang to increase the force, for the principle of leverage to maximize, as the stone continues to rise, the rain hurriedly flow down, they vaguely hear a little clattering sound, the force is also more sufficient.

“Older brother, put the jack on.” Qin Yang said.

Zhang Ming nodded, loosened the Ghost God halberd, took out two jacks from a side bag, watched a huge stone slowly up, revealing a black not dome hole, was busy with the two jacks on both sides, to be placed, Ye Xi also busy with fixing the jacks, and so on almost can accommodate a person to enter, only then was Qin Yang loosened the Ghost God halberd, put it away. Took the electric light to shine inside, but still pitch-black, the three looked for a place slightly sheltered from the rain, Qin Yang and Zhang Ming nestled in a cigarette, smoked a cigarette, and waited for more than half an hour, felt almost after, and then walked over.

“I’ll go down first, you guys will come down after finding a good place.” Qin Yang fixed the rope on his body and said, “Hold on tight.”

“Good, pay attention to safety.” Zhang Ming and the two of them grabbed the rope and instructed a few words.

Qin Yang slipped against the stone slowly down the rope, the light bulb in his hand shone around, and found that all around were cold stones, and did not know how far down, Qin Yang saw that the foot was actually a piece of deep water, after re-fixing the rope, Qin Yang went down to the water, and immediately felt a burst of coldness and stinging the bones, and could not help but shiver, and hastily swam towards one end, in the south of where he landed was a stone wall, and there was no Stopping point, so Qin Yang swam towards the north this time, but after arriving at the north, he found that it was still an icy stone wall, so he had to swim around it, and only found the landing point when it was probably the west side of the location, and that place was pitch black inwards.

“Second brother, how is it?” Ye Xi asked.

“Found the place, you guys come down.” Qin Yang said, “I will drag you guys over.”

“Good.”

After the two of them came down together with their equipment, they just couldn’t help shivering when they arrived at the cold water, and hurriedly swam along the rope in Qin Yang’s direction, and after arriving at the shore, Zhang Ming couldn’t help but say, “It’s really cold.”

“I just felt a fish touch me.” Ye Xi said, “It looks like it’s living water, but there are stone walls around three weeks, this is a deep pool of water, it should be underground water, and there is an underground water passage.”

“Let’s go in and take a look.” Qin Yang said, “Do you guys think this place will be opened up by Yugong.”

“Just go in and take a look.” Zhang Ming busy is said: “here put a little cold, this water is also cold enough, in the down I will freeze, I do not like you two, at least also a handful of years.”

“Older brother to more exercise ah.” Ye Xi laughed: “When I go back I will teach you a set of health techniques, although not up to the point of my master, but the long name of a hundred years old is not a problem, at least than Tianwen that old man to be strong.”

“Really?”

Zhang Ming could know that Tian Wen had lived for more than one hundred and fifty years, the most important thing was that he had a grandson in his twenties only at the age of one hundred and fifty years, how alive and well did he have to be. Ye Xi made a promise, Zhang Ming also took note, the three walked to this wide corridor, look around there does not seem to be any patterns and so on, but found a lot of torches, walked for about half an hour, the three found that the front of the open, of course, is the feeling of the open, visually still can not see anything. The electric light swept forward, just found some walls and so on.

“There should be lighting here.” Zuo Ci suddenly said, “Such a huge palace should have all-around lighting.”

“But where to find it in such a big place?” Qin Yang estimated by feel, “There’s a soccer field size, and it also includes the audience.”

“Then there must be.” Zuo Ci said with conviction.

Qin Yang looked around, suddenly found that the wall behind him seems to have oil lamps and the like, went up and looked, surprisingly, it can still be lit, after taking a lighter and lit it, but the lighting of the ghostly little flame is too limited.

“Ugh, what is this.” Zhang Ming suddenly illuminated a huge pillar in front of him, too head to look at it, and realized that it was staring at the ceiling top, said, “So big, strange, what material is this?”

Qin Yang froze and went up to take a look, realizing that the pillar was as if it was made of glass, and there seemed to be flowing liquid inside.

“Light him up.” Bai Qi said, “This is the lighting device.”

“Point it where?” Qin Yang asked in confusion.

“Under the feet.”

After squatting down, but found a small trench, Qin Yang took out his lighter, after striking the fire and putting it down, a ball of flame rose up in miso, then that flame burned in the whole pillar, that pillar immediately gave off a soft light, and that trench seemed to connect the rest of the place, the liquid in it burned, spreading like a fire dragon; a hundred meters away, a crystal pillar lit up, then, another The fire dragon began to extend, and without going half a meter there was a huge crystal pillar lit up, and through the similarly transparent material, the burning of the flames in it could be vaguely seen. When the forty-ninth heel of the pillar lit up, they realized that the entire mountain was visible at a glance.

However, they saw an ancient royal palace filled with the style of the Zhou Dynasty situated in this huge mountain, a crystal pillar with a burning body was like a dyke supporting that stone wall, and a small inner city of the palace was clearly in their eyes. The city wall, stone steps, the palace is kept very complete, in that city wall also hangs a huge plaque, but the font above is a little blurred, but vaguely visible Luoyi.

“Built by the Eastern Zhou?” Zhang Ming was surprised, “After the Eastern Zhou, the country’s power was declining, and all the major vassal kings were on the rise, how could they still start such a huge project?”

“The Eastern Zhou has at least five hundred years of history, five hundred years of accumulation and perennial planning, enough for them to complete this vast siege.” Qin Yang’s voice was a bit low as he said, “Looking at the surrounding buildings, it’s quite a bit of age difference, then it means that it took hundreds of years to build this. Let’s go in and take a look.”

The three of them stepped over the city wall together, and to their eyes was an imposing palace, walking on those stone steps, the three of them unexpectedly had a feeling of ascending to the heavens, and after the three of them walked to the center platform, they saw two huge tripods standing upright.

“Two.” Zhang Ming gulped.

“Didn’t count on coming for nothing.” Qin Yang sighed in relief and walked up to the tripods, realizing that one was inscribed with a divine dragon and the other with a phoenix.

“Dragon Tripod? And Phoenix Tripod?” Zhang Ming was surprised, “Let’s call it that for now, I didn’t expect it to be carved so realistically.”

Qin Yang felt the vast aura on the twin tripods and said, “It is indeed the Nine Tripods, the same feeling as the Taishan Tripod and the Yellow River Tripod gave me, let’s go, let’s take a look inside the palace.”

The three of them stepped in together, the palace was quite a bit strict, at that time it was a very strict hierarchical society, this kind of palace-like building was also in line with common sense, only that it was empty, adding a kind of despondency. Three people in the rest of the hall walked, did not find what extra, although some bronze products, but are some daily items, also, the Zhou Dynasty dared to open up so do palace is already costing the country, where there is what treasure in this? Just as Qin Yang went to walk around the rest of the palace, he heard Zhang Ming’s shout, “Quickly come over, there is a discovery.”

The rest of the duo were busy coming to the front of the palace in the center, but they saw Zhang Ming standing in front of the throne, holding a pair of parchment scrolls in his hands, saying, “There are words on it.”

“Ji Jie wrote it.” Qin Yang said, “Read it roughly, since the king of Wu Wang conquer the Zhou dynasty, to the traitor Lu Buwei rated Luoyang, resulting in a thousand years of foundations destroyed, Ji Jie self-confessed ambitious, but no power to save the tide of power, so the rate of the dead to recapture the two tripods, the town of the king’s palace in the mountains, hoping that the Zhou dynasty rise again. But seek to get the Xuan Yuan divine sword, in seeking the great Zhou majestic.” Qin Yang put down the parchment scroll and said, “It looks like it should be written by the dead Eastern Zhou . The king of the country wrote it, and opening the royal palace in this mountain was also an attempt to change the fate of the Great Zhou, but unfortunately, it still couldn’t change the direction of the demise. Ji Jie felt that the nine tripods are not enough, but also want to find Regulus, it looks like the path of searching, a go.”

“This is inevitable.” Zhang Ming said, “If at the beginning of the Eastern Zhou, the lord of the country was able to utilize his prestige, it wouldn’t have made the Eastern Zhou a dynasty that was not worthy of its name. Well, the Eastern Zhou has also been extinguished for thousands of years, and it is impossible for the people to agree in redeeming it, so let’s consider it a good thing that we pull the Dragon Tripod and Phoenix Tripod away.”

“Shit.” Qin Yang and Ye Xi laughed and cursed.

“Then what about this palace? Report it to the state?” Ye Xi asked.

“No.” Qin Yang said, “Let’s seal the exit and keep the palace, if the time is ripe we can buy the land.”

“Ah, just right.” Zhang Ming said with a smile.

Then it was time to carry the double tripods, which exhausted Qin Yang’s trio, this place was obviously just that one exit, surrounded by stone walls, he and Ye Xi carried the tripods by relying on the Ghost God’s halberd and then Zhang Ming climbed up and increased the support height of the jacks, then ran back to the truck and drove a car that looked like a kart to catch up, this was a car that Zhao Xiaoqi notified his best friend in the country of M to give the design, with a lot of horsepower, and it was designed with a lot of horsepower, and it had a lot of power. Relying on the car on the turntable plus Qin Yang and Ye Xi perverted strength is the dragon tripod to lift up, the first will be the dragon tripod back to the truck, and then ran a trip to the phoenix tripod to get up, when the two tripods are all placed in the car, the two are also fast and tired out of shape, but it is Zhang Ming drove go-karts back and forth a few times also did not feel tired, a large string of vernacular, so that the two people directly scolded this guy standing talking without waist pain. .

“I’ll go turn off the lights inside, you two take a rest first.” Qin Yang said.

“It’s almost dawn, go early and come back early.” Zhang Ming looked at the time, it was already more than four o’clock, and the rain had stopped at this time, so they had to flash as early as possible.
