Chapter 74 Eagle King Qu Qing
"Master, the dilapidated city ahead might be the lair of those two-faced people." Wu Nan said.
Nie Chubai nodded and was about to order everyone to enter the city when he suddenly heard a sharp whistle in his ears. It was the sound made by the golden beetle.
Nie Chubai raised an eyebrow and said, "This is indeed the location of the Eagle King's Tomb. Ye Junyan and Lin Youwan's team will be here soon."
Wu Nan asked: "What should we do now?"
Pulling out a map, Nie Chubai quickly found the entrance to the Eagle King's Tomb and said, "Let's go in first."
After finding the entrance, Nie Chubai led a team of people in, leaving one person outside to close the door again.
Ye Junyan and his companions came from another direction and happened to discover the body of the two-faced man.
Ye Junyan squatted beside the corpses and frowned, saying, "I've only seen people in the Tianxue Palace practice this kind of extreme cold internal force, but I've never even heard of anyone who can directly condense ice into a blade."
Lin Youwan also frowned and looked around, and then she found a big hole deep in the two-faced man's lair.
"Junyan, look there. According to what Chen Biqian said, this should be the location of the Eagle King's Tomb. There is a cave here, which is very likely the way to the Eagle King's Tomb." Lin Youwan guessed.
Ye Junyan nodded and immediately said, "Go and take a look."
The three parties, from three different places, have all entered the Eagle King's Tomb dungeon.
Wen Yingxue and Long Yi groped forward in the darkness for a long time and finally found the location of the tomb.
Wen Yingxue finally witnessed the scene described in the book.
All kinds of gold, silver, treasures, and rare antiques were placed around the Eagle King's coffin, almost blinding Wen Yingxue.
Wen Yingxue's eyes suddenly lit up. She pulled Long Yi, stepped over the treasures, and went straight to the Eagle King's coffin.
The Eagle King's coffin was enormous, imposingly crafted from pure gold. Wen Yingxue walked to the side of the coffin and began to search for the mechanism.
The book once wrote that there was a mechanism under the golden coffin, and the coffin would loosen as long as it was pressed.
After searching for two rounds, Wen Yingxue finally found a raised pattern. She pressed it lightly, and the coffin suddenly vibrated.
Taking two steps back, Wen Yingxue gave a powerful kick, causing the golden coffin to scatter and fall to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust. The golden nanmu coffin inside was revealed.
"Ayi! Come and help." Wen Yingxue called out to Long Yi.
Long Yi obediently came over to help, but unfortunately, even though the two of them tried their best, the coffin lid didn't move at all.
"Oh my god! I miscalculated. Even though I found the coffin after entering, it's useless if I can't open it." Wen Yingxue said.
He looked around, trying to think of a solution, and then he saw several weapons on one side, including a halberd.
Wen Yingxue's eyes immediately lit up. She took the halberd and began to pry open the Eagle King's coffin.
Although the coffin was made of golden nanmu wood, two hundred years had passed after all. Wen Yingxue and Long Yi, relying on the principle of leverage, really pried open the Eagle King's coffin.
In the coffin, there were two skeletons lying, snuggling together. They were the Eagle King and his wife.
In addition, there was a knife, a sword, and a small brocade box.
The knife was the Eagle King's weapon, named Dragon Sparrow, and the sword was the Qingshui Sword, the sword that the Eagle King's wife had once carried.
As for what was in the brocade box, it was a pill that possessed the internal strength of half a decade of the Eagle King, or thirty years.
The Eagle King's wife was named Qu Qing. She was once a famous female knight. Later, she fell in love with the Eagle King and gave birth to three children.
Unfortunately, Qu Qing's master did not agree with their marriage, because the Eagle King at that time was synonymous with cruelty, brutality, and murderous evil.
Later, for the Eagle King, Qu Qing gave up her martial arts and severed ties with her master.
However, Qu Qing, who gave up his martial arts, has been in poor health since then. Within a few years, he was already terminally ill.
In order to save her, the Eagle King forcibly drew out his thirty years of internal energy, made it into a pill, and wanted to give it to Qu Qing.
Unfortunately, the pill had just been made and before anyone could take it, Qu Qing passed away.
The Eagle King lost thirty years of internal strength, and the death of his lover was a huge blow. From then on, he began to fall into a slump.
Three months later, after everything was arranged, the Eagle King and Qu Qing rested here together.
This pill, which contained thirty internal forces, was the opportunity Lin Youwan had obtained in the Eagle King's Tomb. Wen Yingxue looked at the brocade box and took it out without hesitation, swallowing it into her mouth.
With the internal strength accumulated over the past thirty years, Wen Yingxue will no longer be a weakling, nor will she be Nie Chubai's weak spot.
Just after swallowing the pill, Wen Yingxue heard footsteps. She immediately pulled Long Yi and quietly went here and hid behind the piles of gold, silver and treasures.
The people who came were Ye Junyan and Lin Youwan.
The two of them came down from the two-faced man's nest, which was very close to the main tomb chamber.
"Wow! What a treasure! I'm rich!"
Ye Junyan and Lin Youwan looked at each other and smiled.
"Our efforts have finally paid off. We've found the Eagle King's tomb and can get married after returning to Beijing." Ye Junyan said to Lin Youwan.
Lin Youwan was about to nod when her brows furrowed. "No! Look at the coffin. Someone must have been here before us. Look at the coffin, it's spotless, without a speck of dust. They must have just arrived."
Wen Yingxue, who was far away, was immediately startled. However, it was not because of Lin Youwan's words, but because she was feeling a slight tingling sensation in her meridians.
And it is slowly becoming more painful, especially in the dantian area, which has started to feel a tingling and burning sensation.
"The only gate is right here. They might not have left yet. Search!" Ye Junyan's voice came. Wen Yingxue tried to move her body after hearing it, but she almost cried out because of the sharp pain in her body.
Since she couldn't move her body, it was only a matter of time before she was discovered. Wen Yingxue began to sweat.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Wen Yingxue couldn't help but clench her fists. At this moment, Long Yi, who had been quiet beside her, suddenly jumped out.
"Here! Chase him!" someone shouted, and then the footsteps faded away.
Wen Yingxue was extremely anxious. Just as she was about to call Long Yi back, she was forced to fall to the ground by the pain in her dantian. She clenched her teeth tightly to prevent the cry of pain from breaking through her throat.
"Hurry up and chase him, don't let him get away!"
"Damn it! How come you're so fast?"
Wen Yingxue could only hear the sound, and it seemed that Long Yi had not been caught yet.
"It's you? Why are you here?" Suddenly, Wen Yingxue heard Lin Youwan's voice.
Then a more familiar voice sounded and reached Wen Yingxue's ears.
"I wonder if Miss Lin Si has any interest in my apprentice?"
It was Nie Chubai.
