Chapter 757: Wangchuan Mountain Cave

This group of people looked at one another, and no one dared to speak.

Liu Zheng chuckled.

It seemed this group of grave robbers was still stuck in the realm of empiricism; although this trade had been passed down for many years and involved all sorts of monsters and demons, it had yet to become a system. To put it bluntly, these were just a bunch of grave-robbing fellows, but what he needed right now was a professional archaeological team!

"No one knows?"

His expression immediately fell.

If that were truly the case, he would absolutely not let these people enter the Tomb Cluster. In his past life, the location of Qinshihuang's mausoleum had long been known, but no one had ever dared to excavate it precisely because archaeological technology could not guarantee that his mausoleum could be unearthed unscathed.

Now, it was the same.

Liu Zheng did not reject experience, but what he valued more was science.

He would rather wait for another batch than let them go in and wreak havoc.

"This..."

"Lord Liu..."

"Vice Minister Liu, isn't this a bit difficult for us? Just by looking at it like this, who could know the size? But I can guarantee that as long as you let me scout it, it is absolutely a sure thing!"

That Lao Qian looked arrogant, clearly very confident in his own expertise.

The others joined in the clamor.

In the business of grave robbing, who could have predicted things perfectly before? Everyone just took it one step at a time, and sometimes, for the sake of the treasures inside and their own lives, destroying an ancient tomb was the most normal thing in the world.

The Prince of Wei and the Prince of Yong also felt that Liu Zheng's requirements were a bit too high.

Who would have thought Liu Zheng would continue to shake his head: "A sure thing is not enough; I want a ten-out-of-ten certainty!"

The whole place was in an uproar.

That Lao Qian was also a man of temper, and he immediately snorted coldly: "Prince of Wei, we can't do this job! This is clearly asking for our lives!"

"That's right! We're done!"

"How is this supposed to work?"

The Prince of Wei glared: "Oh, are you all rebelling? A bunch of grave robbers, do you want the Mandarin to have you prosecuted?"

"This tomb is not ordinary."

Just at this moment, Wu Zhen, who had been watching the mountains carefully from the side without participating in the noise, said calmly.

The whole place fell silent.

"Where did this young pup come from..."

"Not ordinary, everyone knows it's not ordinary, and then what?"

"Grandstanding!"

Liu Zheng smiled, looked at him, and said: "Continue."

Wu Zhen picked up a handful of soil from the side, smelled it, then scattered the soil, clapped his hands, and continued: "Lord Liu was right just now; this place is indeed a layout where tigers crouch and dragons coil. If it were just mountains gathering, it wouldn't be much, but the most critical part is the presence of this river, which causes the Qi veins of heaven and earth to connect; therefore, this river is called Tong Shui!"

Everyone listened, completely stunned.

Although grave robbers would dabble in Feng Shui theory, they only started from minor aspects; how could they understand such high-level things?

"The meaning of this Tong Shui is..."

Liu Zheng's eyes lit up; he felt things were getting more and more interesting.

Wu Zhen said calmly: "Where there is Tong Shui, there is a Cave Heaven. The owner of this tomb intends to create a Cave Heaven and Blessed Land here! Naming it Wangchuan, what a truly good implication!"

"What?"

Once these words were spoken, the whole place was shocked.

Liu Zheng's eyes also narrowed slightly.

He actually knew a little about the theory of Cave Heaven and Blessed Land. Of course, he didn't really believe in things like immortality cultivation. But he had always firmly believed in Feng Shui theory. The so-called Cave Heaven and Blessed Land ideology was actually just a geographical view from ancient apocryphal texts, or even, to put it broadly, a cosmological view.

In the minds of the ancients, the universe was divided into thirty-six layers of heaven, and then there were thirty-six spaces where the universe and Earth connected; these were the Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands.

The so-called Cave Heaven and Blessed Land mainly referred to the sacred Taoist spaces within the Great Heaven. The regions it encompassed included Cave Heavens, Blessed Lands, Jingzhi, Water Mansions, Sacred Mountains, and Sea Islands.

"Wangchuan Mountain Cave!"

"This..."

"My god!"

Soon, everyone's expression changed drastically.

Who else but the Great Khan Tuolei could have the power to set up this formation among these mountains?

Wu Zhen nodded: "Life and death are interdependent, fortune and misfortune are interdependent; he is cultivating Dragon Qi here."

Boom!

It was truly so!

The Wangchuan mountains naturally gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and his choice to be here was naturally to treat this place as a dragon vein! He buried himself here and then created a tomb similar to a Cave Heaven and Blessed Land; his intention was self-evident. He wanted to nourish Dragon Qi for his descendants!

His ambition was immense!

But this also fit the persona of Tuolei in history.

Everyone, at this moment, was already looking at Wu Zhen with eager eyes.

Wu Zhen continued: "If everything is as I suspect, this Wangchuan Mountain Cave is likely not just a Tomb Cluster..."

Another bold guess, yet one infinitely close to the truth!

Everyone's shock came in wave after wave.

It was completely unstoppable.

"Since it is a mountain cave, there must be a cave; only with a cave is it a Cave Heaven. This tomb only has Tong Shui but no mountain cave, and coupled with the name Wangchuan..."

A trace of a dry smile finally appeared on Wu Zhen's calm, unruffled face.

"The Cave Heaven is likely underground. A simple tomb cannot be called a cave."

"Lord Liu, this tomb cluster must be an underground city; it covers a vast area. It is very likely that the entire Wangchuan Mountain Range is a tomb!"

An underground city!

The entire mountain range!

This statement terrified the group. Who had ever seen such a massive Tomb Cluster? Even the mausoleum of the Longyan Emperor in the Qinling Mountains was only a small hill! But this Wangchuan Mountain Cave was actually an entire mountain range!

"This..."

"How is this possible!"

"Good heavens, what is Tuolei trying to do?"

"His heart is punishable, his heart is truly punishable!"

But despite their astonishment, these people no longer had any doubts about Wu Zhen.

Liu Zheng also smiled bitterly.

He had not expected the scale of this project to be so enormous.

"Master Wu, what do you think the possibility of excavating it yourself is?"

Liu Zheng looked at Wu Zhen and asked seriously.

Wu Zhen remained cold-faced: "I only need to conduct a survey within the scope of my hypothesis. If my hypothesis is proven correct, then the difficulty of this tomb is actually not great... If he wanted to create a Cave Heaven and Blessed Land, he would not have set up too many lethal traps."

"It's settled then!"

Liu Zheng announced on the spot that the leader of this tomb exploration team would be Wu Zhen!

Wu Zhen's genuine talent and learning also made others admire him sincerely.

Immediately, Wu Zhen took the group of Liangzhou soldiers assigned to him by Liu Zheng and began to expand the scope of the survey.

Several robber holes were dug.

Sure enough, the facts were just as Wu Zhen had guessed!

Almost the entire Wangchuan Mountain Range was a Tomb Cluster!

Liu Zheng saw that it could no longer be kept secret.

A public announcement shocked the Longyan.

He had discovered Tuolei's tomb in Wangchuan!

The Imperial Jade Seal was very likely buried within it!

Once this announcement was released.

The entire Longyan was about to go crazy.
