Chapter 828: Shocking
"Brother Chen is so confident?"
"Whether confident or not, I have to walk forward. Brother Zhang, are you timid?"
Zhang Daohe smiled lowly, slightly self-deprecatingly: "One hundred steps have already walked ninety-nine steps, there is no reason to stop at the last step. Brother Chen is not afraid, how can I be timid. These years, I have also experienced life and death several times. A mere ancient tomb of the previous dynasty cannot stop me."
"Very good!"
Chen Guanlou said concisely, walking slowly, counting the steps.
When he counted to twenty steps, he stopped and lit the fire folder.
When the fire light lit up, three intersections appeared in front. One directly in front, one on the left and right, identical giant stone shapes.
Zhang Daohe was shocked. "How to choose this?"
Chen Guanlou narrowed his eyes slightly, and he didn't know how to choose. But he remembered Jin Fulai said he was a lucky person, so he just relied on his intuition.
Over the years, his intuition had allowed him to avoid danger several times and allowed him to detect crises in advance. His intuition had never lied to him.
He decisively walked toward the left tunnel.
"How did Brother Chen determine that he should go left?"
"Just because I am your noble person, you need me to save your life, and I have luck. Is this reason enough?"
"Enough!" Zhang Daohe smiled lowly. "Mr. Jin really didn't calculate wrong, this trip I am really your noble person. I will never forget the grace of saving my life, and after going out, there will definitely be a heavy reward."
"Remember what you said yourself."
The tunnel was very long, pitch black, without any light.
Chen Guanlou narrowed his eyes slightly, released his five senses, forced himself into a state of "enlightenment," "overlooking" the entire tunnel, calculating the length, converting the number of steps. Ensure there are no hidden weapons and mechanisms in the tunnel.
All the things he analyzed with Zhang Daohe before, the so-called immortal defense means, not disdaining hidden weapons and mechanisms, were all nonsense. Relying entirely on "enlightenment," breaking through the maze, ensuring there was no danger, he dared to walk forward without scruples.
Blow out the fire folder and continue to walk forward.
After forty steps, he reached the end of the tunnel again, and it was the left, middle, and right roads again.
Left!
Continue to choose the left!
The third time, the fourth time, the fifth time...
They had chosen again and again, walked through one tunnel after another. Left, left, middle, right, left...
Dizzy, not knowing east, west, north, south, not knowing sun, moon, stars, not knowing late night or morning dew in the pitch-black underground palace. Just keep walking forward, keep walking forward.
The more he walked, the more frightened he became, the more he couldn't believe it, the more shocked he was by the financial and material resources of the previous dynasty, shocked by the big handwriting of the previous dynasty's royal family.
"How big is it inside? We walked for at least one or two hours, still turning in circles, and haven't walked out of these tunnels."
Zhang Daohe was shocked.
Chen Guanlou asked: "Did Jin Fulai ever say whether this ancient tomb is a noble or royal family of the previous dynasty?"
"Mr. Jin guessed it should be the royal family. Being able to use immortal means as defense, it should be the royal family. Of course, it could also be a noble ancient tomb that is noble beyond words."
"We might be walking out of the tunnel soon."
"Why do you see it?"
Lighting the fire folder, Chen Guanlou pointed to the carvings on the wall. "Did Brother Zhang notice the changes in these carvings."
"All are birds!"
"Now there are more beasts!"
When Zhang Daohe heard this, he stared at the wall carefully. "It's really like this. Brother Chen observes so carefully!"
"Birds, beasts. I haven't seen the tomb-guarding beasts yet, Brother Zhang, what did you think of?"
"We walked for so long before, it turned out we were just spinning around outside the mausoleum. The tomb chamber is still far away."
"The appearance of stone carvings of beasts, I think it should not be far from the real mausoleum. Such a large-scale ancient tomb, such a large-scale underground project, I think it should be a royal ancient tomb. Brother Zhang, you made a fortune!"
"If you get an opportunity, it's called a fortune. Mere wealth, what is it worth."
Zhang Daohe had an attitude of regarding money as dung.
Chen Guanlou curled his lips, spitting! Disdain!
If he really regarded money as dung, why did he brainwash the followers to offer their family property and children?
Cult leader, pretending to be quite like it.
He extinguished the fire folder and walked forward slowly. While saying: "Living in the world, it's nothing more than eating and drinking. As a martial artist, there is one more martial arts pursuit. Then Brother Zhang, what is your pursuit as a cult leader? Which direction do you intend to take your followers?
Is it to save the world and the people, or to stir up trouble for the sake of opposition? Do you really think that with your organizational structure, those ambiguous doctrines, and the means of squeezing followers to obtain money, you can really become orthodox and open a peaceful and prosperous age?"
"In every dynasty, who is not living by squeezing the bottom-level people? They can squeeze, why can't we? They are not more noble than us, and we are not lower than them. They can sit on the dragon chair and open a peaceful and prosperous age for decades or hundreds of years, why can't we? Brother Chen, you have prejudice against us." Zhang Daohe said righteously and naturally.
After Chen Guanlou finished listening, he sneered. "Others have it, so you have to have it? Others can sit on the dragon chair, so you have to sit on the dragon chair? After you sit on the dragon chair, what will you do? Is there any difference from the emperors of the past dynasties?"
"Whether there is a difference, the people have the final say. Brother Zhang, don't be distracted. Now we should focus on this ancient tomb, focus on the opportunity. As for the future, no one can say clearly. Perhaps I will be mediocre in this life, perhaps I will add a handful of firewood to the boiling world, perhaps I can really overthrow the rule of the Great Gan dynasty. I can see that you are not satisfied with the current emperor, Brother Chen. Regarding the rebellion of the people, the attitude seems very ambiguous. Why don't you join my sect, I am one person below, ten thousand people above. Let's work together to overthrow this damn Great Gan dynasty, how about that?"
"Not interested!"
One by one, day by day, they just fooled him. Do rebels see one and fool one? Can fool one is one.
Still the reformists are good, practicing the concept, at least knowing to take a small place as a test field to see if their concept is suitable for the needs of the people, and whether it can improve the lives of the people.
Rebels only know how to overthrow, destroy, and don't consider construction at all.
However, if you want the people to live a good life, the most important thing is construction! Basic construction, institutional construction...
Walk in the dark!
One tunnel after another.
The scale of the underground palace is amazing.
The fire light is bright, and the front suddenly opens up.
They finally walked out.
In front is a stone room, guarded by stone beasts.
Light the oil lamp in the stone room. The oil lamp a thousand years ago, crackled and lit up. The whole stone room was in full view.
Big!
Empty!
Except for stone beasts and oil lamps, there is nothing.
Three stone doors in front!
Three again!
This ancient tomb seems to have a deep connection with three, the tomb owner or the person who designed the tomb is very superstitious about three. As the saying goes, three gives birth to all things!
"Are we here?" Zhang Daohe looked around. "Finally found the real mausoleum?"
"Still early!" Chen Guanlou pointed to the three stone doors. "How to choose?" ===== CHAPTER 829 =====
