Chapter 1391 Underground Palace
There were deaths in the capital, but not as many as Xiao Lanyuan and the others had expected.
The nearly one hundred people they found had already traveled all over the capital over the years. It was just right that they could tell Xiao Lanyuan and the others what they had learned, thus saving them a lot of trouble.
According to these people, those who died in the capital city during their investigations over the years were those who did not have time to evacuate or were unwilling to leave.
Moreover, after the natural disaster, the city was covered with heavy snow and there was no plague. It could be said that the entire capital was "cleaner" than they had imagined.
However, the underground palace is what they have been looking for.
Unfortunately, they haven’t found the imperial palace in all these years, let alone the underground palace.
"Those people suspected that a lot of Dong Qing's wealth, including books and blueprints, were transported into the underground palace."
"But many people may have died in the underground palace. Those who were unwilling to leave the palace eventually ended up in the underground palace."
Zhong Jianlai told Fu Zhaoning about these things.
Fu Zhaoning couldn't help but sigh.
"Ningning, so when the underground palace is opened this time, you shouldn't go in yet." Xiao Lanyuan was afraid that there would be poisonous gas inside once the underground palace was opened.
If a lot of people really died, the smell would be extremely horrible.
"Good. You all prepare your protection."
Fu Zhaoning did not insist on going.
On this day, the underground palace finally slowly opened.
The extremely heavy door slowly opened.
As soon as you enter, you will see the breathtakingly magnificent passage inside.
The grand dome, the passage that can accommodate three carriages passing side by side, and the floor paved with white jade exude a calm, ancient and deserted luxury.
This feeling hits you as soon as you see it for the first time.
"Wait a quarter of an hour before going in." Xiao Lanyuan ordered.
Everyone is waiting outside.
After a while, Zhong Jian, Qing Yi and others entered first, tested whether there was poisonous gas, and then passed the message out.
Xiao Lanyuan led his men into the underground palace.
The abbot also came with Sang Zi.
"Master, there must be quite a few dead people here, right?" Sang Zi asked the master in a low voice.
"Um."
The master of the temple had a calm expression.
He had known for a long time that many people would die here.
However, there was a record in the books he knew that those who did not want to leave or could not leave the underground palace at that time did end up entering the underground palace.
The underground palace of Dongqing is as majestic and beautiful as the palaces on the ground.
All the treasures were finally collected into the underground palace.
As soon as they entered the first large platform, they saw ninety-nine and eighty-one white jade statues of mythical beasts guarding the place, arranged in a formation.
"Only after passing this formation can the second door be opened." The temple master said to Xiao Lanyuan.
"Eighty-one statues of mythical beasts. Such a formation can be admired no matter where it is placed." Shen Xuan also whispered to Fu Jinchen.
When they looked around, they could see huge and magnificent murals. The colors had only faded a little even now, but the paintings were still magnificent.
The painting shows the magnificent mountains and rivers of Dongqing.
The areas with the richest minerals are also marked on it.
Xiao Lanyuan broke the formation personally.
The divine beast formation was extraordinary. Even though he brought Zhong Jian, Qing Yi, Eleven and Thirteen and the others, it still took them an hour to break the formation.
All eighty-one statues were moved to their correct positions, and the huge second stone door opened.
This time, a smell came out directly and everyone quickly backed away.
There was a candle flame, which suddenly lit up automatically, and some light-absorbing beads on the top also slowly lit up.
