Li Bai and Zhao Qian'er left Duyou Mountain, contacted Concubine Zhao Lingfei with the help of the communication jade gourd, and went to find her.

The other side.

Zhu Yourong and Zhao Lingfei followed the address deduced by the tall and thin old man and Mr. Bai and quickly arrived at a remote hill.

However, there was nothing here and no one was living there, but the two women both set their eyes below.

They were suspended in the air, looking down at the ground.

"It's right here. The underground... is empty. There is a crypt."

Zhu Yourong stared intently.

Concubine Zhao Ling nodded.

The place where they were standing at this time was actually the same "position" as Zhao Rong, except that the former was on the ground and the latter was underground.

Concubine Zhao Ling looked focused and said:

"Mr. said that this underground palace complex covers a large area. There is a dragon coffin in the hall where my husband fainted. In addition, judging from the scale and style of the building... the underground should be an imperial tomb of the Dali Dynasty. I just don't know whether it is from the present or the old dynasty."

Zhu Yourong nodded, which was what she thought.

"It is not advisable to force your way into a secular imperial mausoleum. There may be self-destructing mechanisms that may hurt Ziyu. We will search along the way and find the entrance to the imperial mausoleum first, and then start from there."

Concubine Zhao Ling nodded happily, and flew away with Zhu Yourong's Snow-eyed Yuanying on her sword.

From beginning to end, the two women never mentioned asking Dugu Chanyi and the Dali royal family for help.

Although they may have a way to enter the imperial tomb, no matter what, what Zhao Lingfei and Zhu Yourong are going to do next is to dig up other people's ancestral graves.

Why did you go and tell them? What did you say?

Would you like to lend a hand and help dig up your ancestors' graves?

It’s embarrassing and bullying just to think about it.

So... they just started digging without informing others.

The two women set off immediately and decided to act in two directions.

The imperial tombs of this secular dynasty are generally built in the place where the dragon rises, which involves dragon vein feng shui.

Fortunately, it didn't bother them.

When they first met, Zhao Rong mistook Zhu Yourong for someone with a poor sense of direction. Actually, Zhu Yourong not only had a good sense of the road, but was also well versed in the secret techniques of Feng Shui exploration.

Although she is now a quiet and silly stay-at-home girl in Zhao Rong's eyes, she once traveled all over the world and has the experience and skills of a real Nascent Soul cultivator.

Although Zhao Lingfei did not have the experience and knowledge like Zhu Yourong, just as Xiao Qian'er once said, just as she could master the way of celestial phenomena by reading the stargazing book once, Zhao Lingfei had read quite a few cultivation books in her spare time when practicing sword - after all, only once would be enough - and she also had "a little understanding" of the art of feng shui and finding veins.

It didn't take long before the two girls, who had been searching separately, appeared in front of the same waterfall at the same time.

Soon, Zhao Qian'er and Li Bai, who received the message, also rushed to the Imperial Mausoleum Waterfall and successfully reunited with Zhao Lingfei and Zhu Yourong.

The two women were casting spells, trying to open the entrance barrier behind the waterfall in the gentlest way possible, while repairing it to a certain extent.

Because the defensive restrictions of this imperial mausoleum had been forcibly broken by Qin Jianfu once before, he only wanted to get in and find Zhao Rong as soon as possible. He didn't care what would happen in the future, as long as it didn't trigger the self-destruct mechanism in a short period of time.

But Qin Jianfu didn't expect that he would stay in there for so long and never come out.

As a result, although the forbidden magic array of the entire imperial mausoleum has healed a lot, it is still in a somewhat "crumbling" state, posing a considerable risk.

At this moment, everyone gathered together and worked together to strengthen some of the fundamental restrictions on the bottom floor of the imperial mausoleum.

Soon, they opened the entrance to the waterfall, taking much faster than Qin Jianfu did not long ago.

The four of them gradually went deeper into the imperial mausoleum and flew towards the deepest underground palace.

Along the way, there were the coagulated blood drops left by Zhao Rong on the ground of the tomb passage and the bloody handprints on the tomb walls from time to time... These scenes made Zhao Lingfei, Zhu Yourong and Xiao Qian'er feel a little breathless, and their voices became more and more silent.

Li Bai, who was following the three women, had a strange look on his face since he arrived outside the Imperial Mausoleum Waterfall.

He looked at the tomb passages on both sides and the forks in the road, without saying a word.

The man looked somewhat... familiar with the place.

However, the three women in front were so anxious at the moment that they did not notice any of this.

"My previous projection came here with the seniors from the academy."

Zhu Yourong suddenly turned his head, breaking the gloomy atmosphere in the dark and narrow tomb passage.

"The situation in the hall... is a bit tragic, it may make you feel uncomfortable." She lowered her eyes and reminded.

Concubine Zhao Ling didn't say anything. Zhao Qian'er shook her head and said, "It's good enough that Brother Rong'er is alive. It's good enough that he is alive... Qian'er doesn't ask for anything else."

The girl was still holding his broken arm tightly in her hand.

…

Zhu Yourong nodded, breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Don't worry, I've already given him some healing elixirs, and he's saved his life. Although his previous injuries were extremely serious, his steady and cautious martial arts physique saved him, and he never lost his breath. I treated him and brought him back from the brink of death before dispersing the projection."

Xiao Qian'er sniffed and thanked Zhu Yourong.

This time Zhu Yourong didn't say anything about "we're one family" to refuse. She now felt that being "strange" was good.

Concubine Zhao Ling also thanked him at this time, and then whispered to Xiao Qian'er, who still had a worried look on her face, "Don't worry, Mr. Bai's projection left half of his sword energy for Brother Rong'er before he left. In a scabbard, no thief can hurt him again."

Zhao Qian'er's face regained some color, and she smiled sweetly, "Well. Let's go quickly and take Brother Rong'er back."

Everyone relaxed, nodded happily, and quickly rushed to the gate of the imperial mausoleum.

The blood and bloody handprints in the tomb passage, as well as the footsteps of a disfigured old scholar, all point to this magnificent underground palace.

The fierce fight between the two Confucian scholars, one young and one old, not long ago also took place in the underground palace in front of them.

Looking at the young lady and Mr. Zhu who were going to open the palace door, Xiao Qian'er took a deep breath quietly.

She was a little afraid that when she saw the tragic scene inside and someone with a broken arm, sand would get into her eyes again... Thinking of this, the girl's peach blossom eyes widened a little.

This way you won’t cry easily.

The palace door was opened, and everyone walked directly in. Then they walked about twenty meters along the tomb passage and came to the end of it.

Just as Zhu Yourong had said before, the end of the tomb passage was blocked by a pile of rubble.

It was used by Qin Jianfu before to cut off Zhao Rong's escape route.

Outside the tomb passage is the main hall of the underground palace.

In front of the rubble, Xiao Qian'er was the first to lose control. Beside her, Zhelei suddenly stood upright in the air, and then a bolt of lightning sword energy struck over.

Boom——!

The rubble that blocked the tomb passage broke apart, and dust slowly fell to the ground.

In the darkness of the tomb passage, everyone could vaguely see the outline of the dragon coffin in the center of the main hall in front of them.

"Brother Rong'er!"

Xiao Qian'er ran first, holding the broken arm in her two thin arms, with tears on her little face, and laughed as she entered the main hall of the underground palace.

Concubine Zhao Lingfei and Zhu Yourong in the tomb passage looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and then prepared to follow.

At this time.

"Mr. Zhu." A young girl in the hall suddenly called out.

"Yes, what's the matter?" Zhu Yourong was about to raise his foot when he said with a slightly stunned look on his face.

Zhao Qian'er was quiet for a moment and asked, "Where is my brother Rong'er?"

The atmosphere froze in an instant.

Concubine Zhao Ling and Zhu Yourong were startled suddenly, and they shrunk the ground into an inch and entered the palace in an instant.

"besides……"

The girl holding the broken arm murmured as she watched the scene in front of her. She turned back in a daze and asked the two girls: "Is this what you called... tragic?"

In front of everyone.

The dragon coffin is extremely clean;

The floor is clean and shiny;

The air is slightly chilly and fresh;

The whole hall looks brand new.

There was no figure either.

…

Inside the underground palace, at a certain moment.

Unlike the three women in front who reacted violently and were furious, Li Bai, who was following leisurely from behind, looked around at the new and familiar interior of the hall.

The man blinked and his expression became more and more strange.

Seems... not worried about that guy at all.
