Chapter 501
Yin Nanfeng naturally couldn't answer Zhang Yueshan's question.
She looked at Zhang Lin on the stage and said: "This question of yours, I'm afraid you still have to ask him!"
"The Thunder-Listening Clan has newly appeared, and it is extremely mysterious!"
"I estimate that Zhang Lin is also trying his best to find clues about them; there is still more to hear in this story."
Zhang Yueshan also looked at Zhang Lin; he was thinking about why Zhang Lin wanted Sheng Sheng Man to tell them about the list?
Logically speaking, this matter should be top secret now!
I'm afraid the National Archaeological Institute would keep it tightly under wraps; before the owner of the Never-Lose Stone is determined, this list placed in a glass cover will definitely not be disclosed!
Sheng Sheng Man's meaning was that Zhang Lin needed the help of Yin Nanfeng and Zhang Yueshan.
This, of course, didn't just refer to the two of them, but the Crescent Hotel and the Laojiu Sect represented by the two!
It seems that the Thunder-Listening Clan is indeed tricky, making even Zhang Lin very wary, and he has already started to pull in outside help.
Official participation is not enough, and they have even dragged these folk forces into the water!
At this time, Zhang Lin checked the time again and found that there was less than ten minutes left.
He accelerated his speaking speed: "Chale'gai said he could become a real god by passing through Genghis Khan's tomb, which sounded like madness to Ban Jie Li's ears."
"Ban Jie Li didn't continue to be obsessed with the Land of Eternal Life; he decided to ask for some useful information about the imperial mausoleum."
"Looking at the valley in the distance whose outline was not very clear, Ban Jie Li asked: Mr. Chale'gai, you said that the valley was the place where the hidden weapon mechanisms for the imperial mausoleum were once cast; does that mean the imperial mausoleum is nearby?"
"This judgment of Ban Jie Li also came from what he learned from Master Guo in the past six months."
"Although Master Guo was a liar, he had taught Ban Jie Li basic theoretical knowledge."
"If the Mongols used this valley as a place to build hidden weapon mechanisms, it meant that a large number of people and horses would set foot in this valley every day."
"The wood, stone, and pig iron used for construction all needed to be transported here."
"The finished products produced needed to be transported by carriage to the imperial mausoleum."
"If it was too far away, firstly, the movement would be large and the target would be large, and secondly, it would not be very safe; the longer the journey, the more accidents there would be."
"Therefore, Ban Jie Li had this judgment that the location of the imperial mausoleum was not far from this valley."
"But this conclusion was the peak of what he had learned; more advanced tomb-raiding knowledge, such as determining burial sites, Ban Jie Li simply didn't know."
"Hearing this question, Chale'gai didn't even think and said: The location of the mausoleum is a secret; those who work in this valley cannot know the location of the mausoleum. Of course, there are exceptions; whenever a batch of finished products is completed and needs to be transported to the imperial mausoleum, a portion of people will be selected from the valley to escort them."
"Everyone, you all know how cruel it is to build an imperial mausoleum; Chale'gai's meaning is very clear."
"The people who transport materials to the valley are basically not the same batch as those who finally go to the imperial mausoleum to deliver goods."
"But the fate of these people who deliver goods can be imagined!"
Everyone nodded when they heard this.
The mystery of the location of Genghis Khan's mausoleum has not been discovered until now.
This shows that when the imperial mausoleum was built, great efforts were made in confidentiality!
These people responsible for delivering goods to the imperial mausoleum had only one fate, and that was death!
At that time, the Mongols, whether soldiers or civilians, were very worshipful and loyal to Genghis Khan.
But for this delivery journey where they knew they would die, I don't know how the selected people would react?
With this question, the audience continued to listen to Zhang Lin.
"Although Ban Jie Li had little experience, he also understood that every batch of selected people would never return."
"So, he asked curiously: How are these people who deliver goods selected? Is it by drawing lots?"
"Who knew that Chale'gai would sneer and say: Drawing lots? How could the subjects loyal to the Great Khan draw lots? Everyone regards going to the imperial mausoleum to deliver goods as an honor! There is no need to draw lots at all; everyone is scrambling to go!"
"This answer made Ban Jie Li tremble all over; he really couldn't imagine in what extreme state of mind people would scramble to die like this and regard it as an honor?"
"The cold wind whistled on the grassland at night, and Ban Jie Li was stiff all over; he didn't know if it was from the cold or from being shocked."
"Immediately, he thought of a question: these people going to the imperial mausoleum were all incredibly loyal and went to carry out the mission with a determination to die."
"These people must know the location of the imperial mausoleum! How to ensure they wouldn't leak it?"
"Therefore, Ban Jie Li asked: These people who deliver goods know the location of the imperial mausoleum; how to ensure they don't reveal it before they die?"
"Hearing this question, the smile on Chale'gai's face became even more cruel; he smiled and said: Know the location of the imperial mausoleum? These people cannot possibly know the location of the imperial mausoleum! Every one of them must smear their eyes with raw lacquer before setting off!"
At this moment, all the audience who heard this felt their hair stand on end.
Smearing eyes with raw lacquer has only one consequence, and that is becoming blind!
Therefore, these people could not possibly know the location of the imperial mausoleum.
Because they were already blind before they set off!
Such a cruel and inhumane practice was like the most ordinary thing in Chale'gai's mouth.
Many people, because of his identity as a descendant of Genghis Khan, brought this feeling into the past.
A cruel Mongol monarch image appeared in their hearts!
In order to ensure that his sleeping place would not be disturbed, he made everyone who went to the imperial mausoleum blind themselves!
The most important thing was that these people were still voluntary!
Yin Nanfeng shook her head and retorted: "This is impossible! No one would voluntarily blind themselves!"
"Smearing eyes with raw lacquer, that kind of pain is simply unbearable for ordinary people!"
"It's simply ten thousand times more painful than being burned by fire!"
Zhang Yueshan was also shocked by this extreme means of confidentiality.
He sighed repeatedly: "Actually, there is nothing that cannot be understood; don't you understand yet?"
"How would the superiors care about the life or death of these people? Even if they weren't voluntary, it would be reported as voluntary!"
"Only in this way does Genghis Khan appear even greater!"
"I'm afraid it is also such cruel means that have allowed this imperial mausoleum to remain undiscovered for thousands of years."
"In a sense, this confidentiality method of Genghis Khan is the most effective!"
