Chapter 796: Making a Deal

~7 min read 1,365 words

"You, you, you, you are talking nonsense!"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"The day His Majesty is reborn will be the day you—"

The old eunuch shrieked.

Because everything Liu Zheng said was too different from what had been instilled in him since childhood.

If what Liu Zheng said was true, then his faith would collapse.

What his ancestors had pursued and guarded for generations would cease to exist.

For a person, the collapse of faith is absolutely a terrifying thing.

Therefore, his face was twisted like the sole of a shoe; he looked horrified, incredulous, furious, and malicious.

"Impossible."

"This is impossible!"

Remember the website rg

Liu Zheng sighed slightly in his heart.

Most of the time, Liu Zheng thought about how people often said that this feudal dynasty poisoned the concepts of many people. But in reality, subjectively speaking, were these people not also willingly poisoned and enslaved? Because they also craved higher status; they also craved to be below one person and above ten thousand. Why was it that when the Great Qing fell, so many loyalists wept bitterly and could not sleep at night? Because they were the vested interest group that followed the feudal dynasty. They could possess superior status in the feudal dynasty, could flaunt their power, and had even become accustomed to this flaunting of power.

In traditional concepts, their loyalty to Tuolei was absolutely worthy of being promoted and praised by Confucian culture.

But their inner desire for power was actually the true culprit behind everything.

Therefore.

The "old eunuch" before him, in Liu Zheng's view, was pitiful and sad, but in fact, also hateful.

They also felt that this old eunuch was pitiful.

Throughout the entire Taihe Hall, only his shrill voice was roaring.

The whole place went silent.

Prince Wei, Prince Yong, and the others said nothing.

He glanced indifferently at Tuolei beside him, and then he sat on the steps next to the Dragon Throne.

"Bullshit, you're talking bullshit."

"He is dead and will not live again."

Liu Zheng smiled and repeated it again.

Pei Qianyun slapped him to the ground. Only then did people discover that this "old eunuch" was actually not old. In his disheveled state, the skin he exposed looked very young, and his bodily functions were not that aged either.

"How old are you this year?"

The old eunuch struggled to rise in anger.

Bang!

The crowd was shocked.

Just reached adulthood?

Liu Zheng was a bit curious.

The old eunuch trembled all over: "I reached adulthood long ago!"

The "old eunuch" really did not want to answer.

But since the current situation was stronger than the person, he could only grit his teeth: "There are monkeys that help us go out and pick some wild fruits to bring back."

In other words, he had only just turned twenty not long ago?

A flash of surprise also crossed Liu Zheng's face: "What do you eat here?"

"How many more people are there? Call them all out together."

Liu Zheng said indifferently.

That made sense.

These people probably had no salt to eat, which was why they had white hair at such a young age.

Pei Qianyun slapped him again.

Perhaps because he knew this old eunuch was not an old eunuch but a young man, this blow was even harder.

"You are dreaming."

Bang!

For example, the female officials of Kunning Palace.

For example, the palace maids of Ningshou Palace.

Next.

It was the process of the guards around Liu Zheng and the others beginning to search this place. Just as Liu Zheng had guessed, the tomb keepers here were not just this "old eunuch"; there were others. They were distributed throughout all the other palaces, including this Taihe Hall, and they also served various roles.

Very quickly.

These people were all brought over one by one.

For example, the eunuchs of Wenhua Pavilion.

These tomb keepers had been loyal for hundreds of years, playing their roles here, expecting that one day Tuolei could be resurrected.

High and mighty.

Accusations, angry rebukes.

Naturally, another scene of absurdity followed.

Anger.

Among these people, there was an old man.

With the bearing of a Daoist immortal and an imposing manner, he shouted angrily as soon as he arrived: "You barbarians!"

And then, what followed was the same disbelief, the same unwillingness to accept it.

Liu Zheng looked around; hmm, there were probably over two hundred people in total—the number of these people still exceeded his expectations.

The old man was beaten until he was completely disoriented.

Suddenly, those tomb keepers were all enraged, but after all, they had been here in this underground place for hundreds of years, and their physical fitness was still too poor; facing these fully armed Longyan soldiers, none of them were a match.

Bang!

Pei Qianyun slapped him again.

It could also be said that he was the patriarch of this family.

Liu Zheng walked over with a chuckle and watched him quietly: "Tell me, where are the mechanisms here controlled from? Why don't we make a deal: you tell me how to control the mechanisms, and I will prove to you that your Majesty, even after a thousand or ten thousand years, will never be able to come back to life."

Liu Zheng smiled slightly and walked up to this old man.

Because he could see that this person should be the leader of these tomb keepers.

The old man's face changed drastically.

"I will also tell you that the world outside is very wonderful—"

"What?"

Vast in scale.

Magnificent and resplendent.

Du Liang looked at everything before him with a face full of shock.

Underground Stone Grotto.

"So much gold!"

"Over there!"

Just like the shock Liu Zheng and his people felt when they first arrived. Seeing this scene, everyone had already concluded that this was the tomb of Tuolei!

The Imperial Jade Seal!

Du Liang's face changed drastically: "Nobody move!"

However, his warning was of no use at all.

"And over there too!"

But, unlike the strict military discipline of Liu Zheng's side, the mixed Nanyang Army and Liaodong Army were immediately attracted by the night-luminescent pearls and jewelry here as soon as they came down.

The whole scene fell into chaos.

Next came the rumbling, the rumbling.

Various mechanisms and various poison arrows caused people to be knocked over on the spot, with many dead and wounded.

One hundred people?

Would they be devoured?

Xiao Qian's side was a bit better.

But facing this strange passageway, he was still caught in a dilemma.

Through Liu Zheng's understanding, he knew that these tomb keepers were the Luo clan from the old Longyan lands.

So these two hundred-plus people were all surnamed Luo.

These people were at their wits' end.

"You, you, you, what do you mean? How can you prove it? How can you prove it!"

Luo Chengxiang was also trembling all over and roared out.

The Luo Family had served the Grassland hero Tuolei from ancient times to the present.

This old man was the current patriarch of the tomb keepers, named Luo Chengxiang.

As long as there was enough human vital blood to complete the blood sacrifice!

The glory of the Qiang tribes would reappear in the world!

He did not believe it.

His Majesty could clearly be resurrected!

Even this group of people, who had always firmly believed in the existence of ghosts and gods, felt that this blood sacrifice was truly too fake. If one were to talk about power and wealth, who could compare to Qinshihuang back in his day?

Can people be resurrected?

The Longyan lands would tremble because of it!

Everyone was speechless.

Poor these people.

Still here, continuing for hundreds, or even thousands of years, dreaming such dreams.

If that were true, Qinshihuang would have long since been resurrected and unified the world!

It was nothing more than an unwillingness to accept their own death and a comfort to their descendants.

Liu Zheng smiled slightly.

"It's very simple; today, how about we fill this Huoshan crater with hundreds of thousands of lives' worth of blood?"

The entire venue.

It was as if a cold wind had blown through.
