"Imperial Mausoleum?" Lin Jingzhe paused, "Is that the same as the cemetery in the back hill of our Star Recruiting Temple?"
"Well, it's a bit the same. They're both places where ancestors are stored. But it's a little different. This Chu State Imperial Tomb is sealed in a closed space."
"Enclosed space? What do you mean?"
"It means that it is the same as our Star Observation Temple. It is protected by the mountain guarding formation. Without the spirit tablet, you cannot enter."
"Mountain Protection Formation?"
"But the Chu State Imperial Tomb is somewhat different from the Mountain Protecting Formation, because it is underground, and there are only entrances and exits underground. It is shrouded in a mysterious force. Only the Protecting Jade Seal blessing the Chu State's luck can it Open the entrance to the underground.”
"The Jade Seal of Protecting the Country? Luck? What is this?"
Wang Shuya was not bored either, and patiently explained to him in short sentences.
Lin Jingzhe suddenly realized this and nodded repeatedly.
"Then where is the Jade Seal of Protecting the Country now?"
"Hulao Pass, in the hands of General Yue Long."
"Since it is the Jade Seal of Protecting the Country, why is it in the hands of a general?"
"Because this jade seal of protecting the country can only be used by King Huai of Chu and General Yue Long."
"What's the meaning?"
"Only those who bear the heavy responsibility of the country will be affected by the invisible national destiny, and only those who possess the national destiny can truly exert the power of the national protection seal."
"This jade seal of protecting the country is not the same as the old witch's whisk. Is it a magic weapon?"
"It can be understood this way, but it is different from other magic weapons. Other magic weapons can be cast with spiritual energy, but it can only use luck, which is national luck."
"Isn't there a national protector in Chu State? Why is he not favored by the fortune of the country?"
"Him?" Wang Shuya paused and said, "Although the Protector of the Country also has the word "Protect the Country" in his name, he occupies his position and does nothing. Naturally, he cannot let the invisible fate of the country fall upon him. ”
"Does Third Senior Sister know the Imperial Master well, or does he have a dead face?"
"A dead man's face?" Wang Shuya asked doubtfully, "Where did you learn that the National Protector has a dead man's face?"
"Isn't it?" Lin Jingzhe frowned, "He has a dead face and four fingers are missing from his left hand."
"Four fingers are missing." Wang Shuya laughed dryly, "You don't suspect that the person who launched a sneak attack on you just now is the Protector of the Country, right?"
"Well, if it's not him, then who else can enter the palace?"
"That's not clear."
While the two were talking, the footsteps of soldiers could be heard outside, "Here, hurry up and chase."
"Hide here quickly."
"Where to hide?"
"Hide on the bed."
"oh oh."
Lin Jingzhe turned over and jumped into the red tent, and saw Yufeng lying with half of her body exposed. Her face suddenly turned red and she quickly said, "I'm sorry, Third Senior Sister."
"Stop talking nonsense." The third senior sister opened the bed quilt and covered his body in it.
"Your Majesty, Xiang Fei, a thief passed by just now. Didn't you scare your Majesty?"
At this time, a man's voice came from outside the door.
"Who are you?" Wang Shuya pretended to sound like she had just woken up.
"Go back to your Majesty, I am General Zhang."
"Oh, thank you General. I just woke up. I was thinking about going to bed at night, but I didn't expect that the General would be here right now."
Nocturnal defecation means it is convenient to get up at night.
The general outside the door was stunned and quickly explained: "I'm disturbing the queen. I saw a bright light here, and I vaguely saw a figure moving back and forth in the room, so I thought that the thief had broken into Xiang Fei's room. Since Xiang Fei is fine, I will retreat now."
"Good work."
"It should be." General Zhang said, and then shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Let's go."
Immediately, the sounds of footsteps gradually left.
"Three, Third Senior Sister, how did you become the empress of the harem?"
"Why not?"
"It's not impossible, I just feel..."
"What do you think?" Wang Shuya said: "I don't have the ice spirit body of the fifth junior sister. Since I practice the Eight Desolations and Desolate Yin Technique, and I can't control the ice cold poison in my body, I can only survive in this stupid way."
"Then we can't look for the emperor. After all, there are things like Alex pressing down on us."
"I only get cold energy once a month." Wang Shuya said, "Moreover, they can also provide me with some scattered spiritual stones to practice."
"Spiritual stone?"
"They don't know these ordinary rocks, so they give me an advantage."
"Third Senior Sister, tell me, what is your purpose in doing this?"
"Purpose? Haha, did you guess something?"
"I don't think Third Senior Sister is the kind of person who doesn't know what's important. Tell me, why did you tell me the clues about the ancient mirror?"
"For what?" Wang Shuya chuckled softly: "The clues from the ancient mirror are of no use to me. I am just a favor. Besides, we are from the same school. If you hadn't taken action to break the deadlock, we might still be trapped in Star Reaching Observation. , or in other words, I am also doing it for the good of the Wang family."
"Wang family? It was you who made Wang Yi return to the palace and resume his duties."
"That's right." Wang Shuya's tone was a little sad, but not long after, she said again: "You still won't go back? Do you really want to lie on Third Senior Sister's bed all the time?"
"Ah." Lin Jingzhe's face turned red and she looked embarrassed, "Then, I'll leave now."
Wang Shuya didn't speak. She was already lying down under the quilt. She was so happy that she slowly closed her eyes again and ignored Lin Jingzhe.
Lin Jingzhe was stunned for a while, then took out the Earth Escape Talisman from his sleeve, mouth slightly opened, and muttered something.
The next second, his body disappeared from the spot...
He felt a little sad that he wasted two earth escape talismans, but there was nothing he could do about it. Anyone who made his start unfavorable would always be targeted.
After returning to the house, he sat cross-legged and meditated, practicing the Yin and Yang poles of Hongmeng Chaos.
He was trapped in the ninth level of qi training for a year, and he was still unable to break through the foundation building stage, which gave him a headache. After all, the gap between foundation building and qi training was huge.
The next day, in the early morning, the competition between the strange and powerful people had begun, but he did not participate.
He was completely immersed in that mysterious and mysterious feeling. The Hongmeng Chaos Yin and Yang Ji was indeed a magical door skill, which could make people feel like immortals and go deep into meditation.
Late at night, he finally came back, put his head on the mirror, and fell into a dream.
Mirror world.
"Girl, I'm here."
"Yes." Lin Xiyao saw him appearing and slowly came up to her. Sure enough, without the fragrance of fragrant jade, could he really not lie to herself? Is it because I'm a little too narrow-minded?
When Lin Jingzhe saw him approaching her, her expression changed, "Miss Lin, I didn't drink today."
When Lin Xiyao heard this, she felt that the two of them were too close, so she quickly took a few steps back calmly.
"very good."
"Is it okay there?" Lin Jingzhe asked doubtfully. He felt that Lin Xiyao seemed to be a different person today. Although he couldn't see her face clearly, the tone of her voice was a bit strangely ambiguous.
Although he didn't know if it was ambiguous, Lin Jingzhe always felt that it was not far from ambiguous.
"Miss Lin, I have found the next clue about the ancient mirror."
"Oh." Lin Xiyao's voice became cold again after taking a few steps back.
Lin Jingzhe was not surprised. He laughed dryly and continued: "The next clue to the bronze mirror is in the Chu State Imperial Tomb. To open the Chu State Imperial Tomb, one must be in charge of the national destiny and the national protector's jade seal to open it."
"Yeah." Lin Xiyao could only scratch the surface without saying much.
"Is there any way that girl can avoid the fate of the country and the jade seal of protecting the country, and enter the imperial mausoleum?"
"No." Lin Xiyao replied simply.
"Really?" Lin Jingzhe asked again.
"No." Lin Xiyao said: "The imperial mausoleum hidden underground may be a mustard space. It belongs to a unique self space with the Qiankun Bag and the Object Storage Ring. However, the Mustard Seed Space is suitable for living people, and the Qiankun Bag, The ring for collecting things is suitable for dead people. Every space has its own restrictions. Breaking the restrictions with brute force will destroy the things inside."
"So, do I really want to take part in the position of national master? Let's challenge it."
"It's up to you." Lin Xiyao added, "I won't force you."
"I know the girl won't force me, but if there is a chance, I will still fight for it." Lin Jingzhe decided that she must participate in the competition tomorrow, not for anything else, just to leave a good impression on Miss Lin. , open the white mist restriction, so that you can also feast your eyes.
"You like it." Lin Xiyao said lightly, with no trace of emotion in her voice.
Lin Jingzhe rubbed his nose and stood aside knowingly...
The next day, Lin Jingzhe went to the Royal Garden and participated in the challenge match.
Perhaps the casual cultivators who came to participate in the competition were all extremely low-level. After several competitions, Lin Jingzhe crushed them and advanced to the top five.
Moving forward to within five people, apart from Lin Jingzhe, there were three old men and one woman.
The three old men together were almost over 250 years old, but the woman plus Lin Jingzhe was less than forty years old.
Although the old man seems to have more prestige among practitioners, the fact that they have practiced until their seventies and are barely hovering at the sixth or seventh level of Qi training indicates that their talent is too low.
The woman looked young, only in her twenties at most, but she was at the eighth level of Qi training, which was only one level lower than Lin Jingzhe.
Lin Jingzhe compressed his strength to around the sixth level of Qi training, making others feel that his advancement into the top five was entirely due to luck.
"Little brother, you are only at the sixth level of qi training, but you really want to compete with us for the position of national master?" An old man with a white beard and white hair shouted at Lin Jingzhe.
"Xiaodao would like to give it a try." Lin Jingzhe responded to him.
"Hmph, others don't know it, but I can see it clearly. You just defeated the head of the Cang Sheng Sect. Is it all about luck?"
The old man didn't respond, but the bald man next to him spoke sarcastically.
At this moment, he was dressed in monk's robes. He must be the abbot of some small temple.
"Lucky, lucky." Lin Jingzhe said still modestly.
As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling person with your fist. Since people admit it humbly, you have no reason to continue to be sarcastic. You naturally understand this truth at the moment. As soon as the words reach your mouth, they are swallowed together with the saliva.
The woman in her twenties was waiting aside, closing her eyes and concentrating, without speaking.
But Lin Jingzhe seemed to have seen her somewhere and couldn't seem to remember.
The woman seemed to notice someone staring at her, so she opened her eyes, returned a look to Lin Jingzhe, and then closed her eyes again, letting him experience it on his own.
"Could this person be the woman who chased me the night before?" Lin Jingzhe then remembered that she felt that this woman was more and more similar to the woman who bumped into him in the library that night.
"The Emperor has arrived."
At this time, a sharp voice came from behind the imperial garden, which seemed to be the voice of an eunuch who had castrated his eggs too thoroughly.
Immediately afterwards, more than twenty people gathered around a fat man in his fifties, wearing gold and silk, and walked over.
The fat man had a four-clawed golden dragon tattooed on his gold silk clothes and a crown on his head. His fat face was pale, but his expression was majestic.
This man is King Huai of Chu. Perhaps because Chu is a relatively small country, the golden dragon on his clothes is missing one claw. He also knows himself and does not dare to really call himself the Nine-Five Lord, the true ruler of China.
