Chapter 105: Going to the Tomb
After another two days of bumpy ride, the group finally arrived at a magnificent mountain. However, the mountain had not been developed, so the car could not enter at all. The group had to get off the ground and walk into the mountain.
Among this group of people, Zhong Nian Yao was the only woman.
The others had originally thought that Zhong Nianyao, a delicate and weak woman, would definitely slow down the team's progress. However, what they didn't expect was that although she was a woman, her speed was not slow at all, and she was even faster than the men.
They had been walking for such a long time, but Zhong Nianyao's face was not red, and she was not out of breath. She didn't look tired at all!
As time went by, they went deeper and deeper into the mountains, until they came to a dense bush and grass, and then they stopped.
Zhong Nianyao glanced around. The mountain stretched out in a continuous undulation, like a crouching dragon above the ground. Its imposing presence alone made it appear majestic and majestic, with an air of endless expanse. Furthermore, the surrounding trees were lush and lifelike.
This is indeed a very good Feng Shui treasure land. Generally speaking, if there really is a tomb here, those who can be buried here must be either rich or noble.
"Is this the location of the tomb?" Zhong Nianyao raised an eyebrow. "You should have found the location of the tomb, right?"
Otherwise, it would be impossible to find this place so easily. After all, although this is a very good Feng Shui treasure land, the mountain is completely undeveloped and most people really don't dare to come in.
After all, in such a big mountain, besides being difficult to tell the direction, you are also likely to encounter some large wild beasts, and then you really can't even save your life.
Lu Yichen nodded and immediately ordered, "Uncle Li, let's get started!"
After receiving the order, Uncle Li immediately led the others to a dense bush, and then several people took out the Luoyang shovel and started digging. In just a moment, a robber's hole appeared clearly in front of everyone.
Zhong Nianyao understood that they had discovered this tomb a long time ago, and should have even entered it to investigate before. However, it was unclear to what extent they had entered it.
Soon, the group went down to the tomb with emergency lights.
As they entered the tomb, they saw a long corridor. As soon as they stepped into the corridor, the oil lamps on both sides immediately lit up. Everyone was startled and immediately gathered together.
Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but frown as she watched the scene happening in front of her.
From this scene alone, she could guess that this time, going into the tomb was not that simple. To be able to design such an ingenious mechanism, and this tomb was so magnificent, it was definitely not an ordinary tomb.
In such a tomb, the dangers are absolutely countless. No one can predict where the next trap will appear.
The oil lamp simply lit up, and there was no other deadly mechanism.
However, even so, no one dared to let their guard down, because the quieter the place, the more likely it was to harbor unknown dangers.
"Master, there seems to be a mural on this wall."
After Uncle Li discovered this, he immediately told Lu Yichen. The group immediately gathered around and began to look at the mural on the wall.
"It seems to describe the life of a princess."
The person who spoke was a man in a white shirt. With his refined demeanor and handsome features, he didn't look like a tomb robber at all, but rather like a professor at a university podium.
And he is indeed a university professor, and a professor in the Archaeology Department of University A. His name is Zhou Yifu.
At this moment, when he looked at the mural on the airbag, his heart was full of doubts, "According to our understanding, this should be a general's tomb!"
Everyone else was also confused, except Zhong Nian Yao, because she didn't know until now that the purpose of their trip was to find a general's tomb.
After spending a few days together, although she was not very familiar with the people Lu Yichen brought, she had a general understanding of them.
In addition to Zhou Yifu, the youngest professor at University A, there are also Ouyang Chenwei, Asia's largest arms supplier, Yu Xuezhi, the youngest new richest man in the capital, and Joseph, the Duke of European country Y.
Take any one of these people, and they'd be enough to shake the ground three times with just one stomp of their foot. But now they were all gathered here, calling Lu Yichen their master. Furthermore, she could tell they weren't as simple as they appeared.
Just from the sound of their footsteps, it can be seen that these people are all martial artists and are quite powerful.
If such news were to spread, I'm afraid a major earthquake would occur in the entire imperial capital.
However, none of this had anything to do with Zhong Nianyao, and she had no intention of telling anyone about it. She was just curious about how Lu Yichen could let her know about this. Their relationship couldn't possibly be that close, could it?
Or did Lu Yichen never worry that she would leak these things?
Everyone was studying the contents of the mural, and soon they also knew why there was a princess's life on this mural.
Because this princess is the lover that the general has kept in his heart all his life, but he cannot say it out loud.
This was a dynasty not even found in historical records, as it lasted so short a time. Being born in such an era was unfortunate, even for a princess. The country was repeatedly invaded by foreign powers, and the monarch was corrupt. Even the most valiant and skilled generals were powerless to reverse the situation.
Although she was born into the royal family, the princess was not arrogant or domineering. Instead, she was gentle and kind, and always cared about the common people. Later, when the enemy country asked for a marriage, she resolutely stood up and chose to take on her obligations.
The general had always had a crush on the princess, but he never said it out loud. He could only watch the princess go to marry a foreign prince, and even had to personally send her off.
Unfortunately, peace has never been a way to end a war. Not long after, the two countries went to war again, and the princess was killed.
The general was heartbroken upon hearing the news and fought bravely on the battlefield, slaying the enemy one after another. In the end, the country won, but the general was deeply wounded and remained bedridden. Not long after, he passed away.
However, the country's victory did not last long. Soon after the general's death, there was no one in the court and it was soon annexed.
