Chapter 189 Times have changed, people are not in control

"He must be there."

Qingpingzi nodded immediately, "The place where Emperor Zongming was buried should be Wanshou Mountain, where the tombs of the Great Yue emperors of all dynasties were located, without exception."

The choice of imperial tombs varies from country to country.

The tradition of the Otsuki royal family is that all emperors are buried in the same place, probably because this way they can curse their unworthy descendants when they see them in the underworld.

Looking at it in a positive way, it may also be that the ancestors wanted to save the time of their descendants in worshiping them.

"Okay. You come with me. It's better to make sure that the immortal coffin is really effective. Otherwise..."

Gu Dan's voice was slightly cold.

"I never speak without words!"

Qingpingzi patted his chest and was not afraid.

Gu, who was observing his expression carefully, breathed a sigh of relief in his worry. Qingpingzi was so confident, so it should be true.

Although the immortals in this world are temporarily gone, there are still many things that possess some magical properties.

For example, the Liuyun Zhuiyue Silk, which is exclusively used by the Dayue royal family, is self-cleaning and spotless, and with the moonlight shining on it, it looks extraordinarily noble. There is also the small iron ball that Master Ji once showed him, which even a martial arts master could hardly harm. And so on and so forth.

It also makes sense to have a coffin that can warm the soul.

"Mr. Gu!"

The two chatted for quite some time, and Xun Ke finally ran over breathlessly. He saw the unconscious Mo Qiu at a glance, and his eyes suddenly widened a little, and there seemed to be continuous thunder roaring in his mind.

Long before Gu Dan left, he had a bad feeling in his heart - if this extremely huge flood was really caused by the bursting of the Huayuankou dike, it must be man-made.

With Master Mo's personality, what would he do after knowing this? I'm afraid he would rush forward without any hesitation!

That's why he was quite worried and even had a premonition.

But even though he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, there was always a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that a miracle would happen, hoping that things wouldn't be as bad as he thought.

Now that he saw with his own eyes the unconscious Mo Qiu in Gu Dan's arms, Xun Ke's premonition was completely confirmed.

The seemingly indestructible faith in his heart seemed to be slowly collapsing, and the goal he set for himself fell.

I couldn’t describe the feeling in my heart. The world seemed to become very empty at that moment, and all the emotions in my mind were completely thrown away.

The world is vast and I am alone in it, like a stray dog.

The man who had rescued him from Yuzhou and wanted to save the world, actually fell.

He couldn't utter a second word before tears welled up in his eyes.

It was clear that he was standing on a mountain, but the whole person seemed to be falling into a bottomless abyss.

Until a warm hand rested on his shoulder, patted it gently, and lifted him up.

"Why are you crying?"

The gentle voice woke Xun Ke up. He quickly wiped away the tears from his eyes and saw Gu Dan.

Those black eyes were looking at him quietly. Unlike the usual calm and peaceful look like a deep pool without any waves, there seemed to be something more in those eyes at this moment.

Sharp.

For a moment, Xun Ke could only think of this word. Having spent seven years together day and night, he was very familiar with that pair of eyes. But now, those black eyes had become sharper.

"Brother Mo is too tired, let him sleep for a while."

Gu Dan said softly, "And me."

Xun Ke widened his eyes in slight surprise.

"Brother Mo has fallen asleep, but the Mo family cannot fall asleep, and the Mo practitioners cannot fall asleep even more. The Yuan River burst its banks, and it is a serious matter. Every moment, there are people struggling in the flood. As Brother Mo's disciple, you must fight for your life."

Gu Dan did not try to comfort or explain anything, he just said it all calmly.

Another man came flying over, with a nimble figure. When he saw the person in Gu Dan's arms, he was slightly stunned. Then he seemed to understand something and actually smiled.

Qin Lisheng spread his hands and said with some complaint: "I'm willing to sacrifice my life for the people, why didn't you wait for me, sir?"

"You have been promoted to Grandmaster?"

Gu Dan could tell at a glance that the Qi and blood in Qin Lisheng's body were different.

"yes."

Qin Lisheng nodded, "Lucky."

In the Gu family courtyard, Gu Dan would often use his internal energy to help nourish his body, and he finally completed the master level of Qi and blood barrier, and was even lucky enough to cross the invisible barrier of the five elements' interaction and became a master.

"Very good, I need to leave for a short while. Do you have the confidence to control the Mohist School?" Gu Dan asked.

"Who else but me?"

Qin Lisheng straightened his chest and said seriously: "In my hands, the Mohist School will never fall into depravity."

Because the noise Gu Dan made earlier was so shocking, people who knew him came over.

"Brother Gu, Master Mo, this."

Wang Mang also came, his eyes looked around and suddenly focused.

"Wang Mang."

Gu Dan looked over, paused, and said, "After the Huayuankou dam burst, the four-nation coalition will not be able to continue the attack in a short period of time. During this period, you must do your best to resettle the victims and rescue the people. I don't care what method you use, you must do everything to the best of your ability. Can you do it?"

Wang Mang was slightly startled.

He had never seen a look like Gu Dan's, a scrutinizing look.

His tone was more severe than ever before, and filled with an almost unquestionable feeling.

Vaguely, a choice was placed before him.

This will directly determine how he will proceed in the future.

Without any time to think, Wang Mang said immediately: "Of course!"

"Very good, since you have agreed, don't let me down. The troops of the Four-Nation Alliance cannot come here now. If a master comes and cannot defeat him, he can run away first and wait for me to finish the last things."

Gu Dan's voice became deeper, and the surging murderous intent made people feel cold all over. "I'll take care of them!"

At this moment, everyone finally understood where this change came from. Mr. Gu, who was so calm and composed before, was now going to do something. This was his attitude towards doing things.

In just a few words, everything here was finalized. It was a quick and decisive move that left no room for doubt, yet also perfectly suited to the situation.

"There is one thing I don't know if you know. The leader of the White Lotus attacked the Dayue Palace. I'm afraid the imperial capital has fallen into the hands of the White Lotus."

Qin Lisheng immediately talked about another important news.

"I know."

"Lin Xiaoyi should be dead."

Qin Lisheng still said.

“.”

Gu Dan didn't say anything, just nodded.

"Before I left, I went to see Imperial Physician Xu. He didn't want to leave the imperial capital with me, so he told me to take care of myself when I see you."

Qin Lisheng continued.

“The Imperial Medical Bureau is not a particularly wealthy place, and experienced imperial physicians are still very important. The danger should not be great.” Gu Dan clenched his fists, his voice slightly deep.

Since he walked out of the Gu family's courtyard, so many things have happened in a very short time, and they have all come together! Things have to be prioritized, and Mo Qiu's situation cannot be delayed, so it must be completed first.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Wait until I get back. It won't be long."

Wanshou Mountain.

This place is the location of the Dayue Emperor's Mausoleum, where all the previous Dayue emperors are buried.

The tombs are clustered together with beautiful scenery and are heavily guarded to protect the tranquility of the place.

But today, this place that should have been solemn and dignified is no longer peaceful at all.

Shouts and cries of killing can be heard everywhere, blood is spilt, wailing is everywhere, fighting is constantly going on here, and there is no peace for a moment.

It was vaguely visible that the troops guarding the mausoleum had fallen into a disadvantage and were on the verge of collapse.

Even in the midst of fighting, there were people carrying gold, silver and jewelry, hoping to take advantage of the chaos and escape to make a fortune.

Of course, if such a person is seen, no one will let him go, and a new fight is inevitable.

Chen Guang's face was dark.

Those tiger eyes were staring at the fighting everywhere. It was clear that the enemy had the upper hand, but his brows were getting more and more furrowed, and the palm holding the hilt showed bulging blue veins.

Finally, when someone drew his sword against him to grab gold, silver and treasures, he couldn't help it.

A tiger-like figure rushed forward, without even drawing the sword at his waist, and knocked the two people who were fighting to the ground with one punch.

The two men who were fighting felt dizzy, and suddenly someone grabbed the clothes below their necks and lifted them up. They subconsciously drew their swords to chop, but when they opened their eyes and saw the person grabbing them, they immediately dropped their weapons on the ground and said tremblingly, "Great King?"

"Cut it! Why don't you cut it?!"

Chen Guang's eyes were extremely ferocious, like a wild beast about to devour someone, and the breath he exhaled hit the person's face, hot and unstoppable.

"My lord, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

Another man was quite clever. "I saw him trying to escape with the gold, and I thought he was a bandit wearing our brothers' clothes, so I wanted to stop him and ask him. But who would have thought that this guy would draw his sword and want to kill me? You have to help me!"

"Stop pretending in front of me!"

Suddenly, he threw the two men to the ground with such force that they wished their bodies would fall apart. Chen Guang said angrily, "Do you know what you are doing? Huh? The rebellion hasn't even succeeded yet, and now you're pulling out your sword against your own brothers?! Who taught you that!"

Wu Sheng, who heard the noise, rushed over quickly, "My lord, what happened?"

“Look at them!”

Chen Guang's finger was not at the two people lying on the ground unable to move, but at the 'family members' who were all over the mountains and fields and had already occupied an absolute advantage.

The angry Chen Guang was like a tiger out of a cage, his roar shaking all directions.

Ever since he shouted “Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers born of different species?”, Chen Guang began to see things more clearly.

It's nothing more than rebellion. If he is caught by the government for the things he did before, can he still survive?

It’s death anyway. When a person dies, the birds fly into the sky. One can live forever!

This damn world is so unbearable, what are you waiting for if you don't do anything? Instead of running around in fear and trepidation, it's better to cause trouble for the masters!

As soon as a thought arises in your mind, the world becomes vast in an instant.

Chen Guang and Wu Sheng started their rebellious journey without hesitation.

Everything was going smoothly at the beginning. Their goals were not big, and at best they were just gathering in the mountains. The court's attention was completely attracted by Yangzhou and Yuzhou, and not much energy could be focused on them.

The first bird to stick its head out will be shot. The Huang Dynasty and the White Lotus Sect received most of the pressure from the court, and the rest had to disperse. The early days were really good! It was precisely because of this good situation that more and more people gathered around them. At first, there were thousands, and then tens of thousands. It had become a scale that should not be underestimated. It could be said that it was a qualified rebellious force.

However, the increasingly large organization began to become bloated.

It was no longer as easy to move around as it was at the beginning. One needed to have one's own territory, so Chen Guang and Wu Sheng even led their men to capture several cities and crowned themselves kings.

But this can only be regarded as a minor act, because they are not the only ones rebelling, and at best they are just small fry with some talent.

If you want to achieve something, you have to do something. Even if you can't be admired like Mo Qiu and be called a saint, at least you have to be extraordinary so that people can bow down to you, right? After the two of them discussed it, they decided to go to the imperial mausoleum.

Although this place sounds unpleasant, no one can say that it is not important to Dayue - after all, the ancestors of the previous emperor of Dayue are buried here! More importantly, there is a lot of money in the imperial mausoleum, it would be a pity to bury it in the soil! Accomplishing such a big thing is not an opportunity to become famous. Although it will inevitably offend the Dayue royal family to death, from the day they gathered more than 10,000 people, they have already offended to death and can't die anymore. What's the difference?

So they came.

The battle went relatively smoothly. The troops guarding the mausoleum were not very strong, and they almost had no morale.

The problem was that his army performed very poorly, even fighting and slaughtering each other for money.

This kind of thing is inevitable, but this is not an isolated case, but a huge number of cases!! Something went wrong.

Something went terribly wrong.

Chen Guang's heart was bleeding, "Look at them!!"

He repeated, "Look at what they are doing! Ridiculous, extremely ridiculous! They haven't even killed all the enemies yet, but they are already rushing to kill their companions for money. Oh, these 'companions' can't wait to run away with the gold and silver treasures. These are our brothers, ha, our brothers!"

"Why is your Majesty so impatient? Everyone has selfish desires, it's human nature. How many people in the world don't have selfish desires? Even Mo Qiu, who is called a saint, is praised by everyone, but how many people are willing to follow him? How many Mohists are there in the Mohist School? At most, there are a few thousand, never more than ten thousand."

Wu Sheng consoled him, "It can be seen that even a saint cannot unite everyone, let alone us. Could it be that the king wants to surpass Mo Qiu in reputation and win the hearts and minds of tens of thousands of people? Don't get stuck in a dead end!"

"A dead end?"

Chen Guang shook his head in pain and said bitterly, "When we rebelled, we all did it because we couldn't survive. Now that we can finally live like human beings, they start to kill their own people. This is just the imperial mausoleum! We haven't even taken it down completely! With a group of people like this, what can you tell me to fight with others?!"

Wu Sheng was surprised and said, "Brother Chen Guangda, I call you 'King', you don't really want to be the emperor?!"

Is it possible that everyone thinks we can't succeed, so they fight among themselves? (End of this chapter)
