Under Zhao Hongming's order, Wu Qi made preparations and mobilized a group of Wei soldiers to enter the Yin State Cemetery, intending to take out all the funerary objects stored in the cemetery.
When Ma Chuanping and other Wei soldiers received this military order, they felt a little uneasy.
They have been monitoring the changes in the ancient tomb at the bottom of the lake in the Wang family compound these days.
In just a few days, hundreds of warriors had died at the bottom of the lake.
These warriors who died at the bottom of the lake were basically from martial arts circles. Their cultivation levels were higher than theirs, and their foundations were much more solid.
These people all died inside, making them all think that there was great danger under the lake.
Since ancient times, no matter whether it is martial arts forces or royal recruits from various countries, once they encounter such a dangerous situation, they have always used them as cannon fodder to take the lead.
They were also suspicious this time.
Even though Wu Qi had explained that the danger at the bottom of the lake had been eradicated, the doubts in their hearts had not been completely eliminated.
After all, their Wei soldiers had only been established for two or three months, and Wu Qi had not yet established enough prestige in the army.
Many people just have to obey orders and take action due to military regulations.
Probably sensing the emotions of the soldiers in the army, Wu Qi motioned to some of his old subordinates.
The latter understood what he was doing, and stood behind Wu Qi with a team of supervisors, twisting many wooden boxes and sacks.
Wu Qi divided the several hundred Wei soldiers in front of him into several groups and assigned them different tasks, such as transporting boxes outside or carrying them inside.
After clarifying their respective tasks and confirming that all Wei soldiers had received his instructions, Wu Qi led his men into the ancient tomb without any hesitation or hesitation.
With Wu Qi taking the lead, the doubts in the hearts of the rest of the Wei soldiers suddenly disappeared.
Even if he was still a little worried, he still had the courage to go on.
Before Zhao Hongming left, he also gave a rough explanation of the situation under the ancient tomb. The tomb objects underneath were relatively valuable, so they had to be sure to be foolproof.
Wu Qi knew that if he entered the cemetery all at once when there were many people and had doubts at first, it would easily cause chaos when he suddenly saw wealth. Therefore, before entering the cemetery, he had to think carefully and arrange it properly. There is no chance of anything happening.
The cemetery is dark and damp, with swaying green light and a foresty atmosphere everywhere.
As soon as Ma Chuanping and others entered the underground, their spirits immediately became tense.
An ordinary soldier belonging to Ma Chuanping came forward and said in a low voice next to Ma Chuanping: "Commander, do you think there will be a greater danger ahead that requires me to fight for my life and treat me like cannon fodder?"
Ma Chuanping glanced at him and said confidently: "General Wu has already come down. He is at the front. If there is danger, he will be the first to encounter it. You are scared to death."
The latter continued: "Commander, you must not have the intention to kill, and you must have the intention to guard against others. Besides, His Highness King Wu is only an ordinary person. It is unknown how long we can last, so we must make plans in advance."
Ma Chuanping felt quite contemptuous of this behavior of eating from the bowl and looking at the pot. He followed suit and said, "Quan Erbao, what are your plans?"
Quan Erbao said with a smile: "I have thought it through. When I save enough wish stones and money, I will secretly leave. Then I will set up my own business, or find a martial arts force to join. I don't have to be restricted here every day."
"What you said makes sense, but I have a different view than you."
Ma Chuanping said expressionlessly: "I heard that the leader of the Ming Cult is at the Wudan realm and is considered a top figure in Ying County. It is said that the leader of the Ming Cult also belongs to the same camp as His Highness King Wu. I believe His Highness King Wu also has his own merits. place."
"With the support of the Mingjiao leader, and the fact that King Wu has begun to take control of Ying County, our Wei soldiers will definitely become stronger and stronger. I think we will have a better future if we continue to stay here."
"We are all Paoze brothers. I will pretend that I didn't hear what you said today. You must never say it again in the future."
Quan Erbao angrily said nothing.
After Ma Chuanping finished speaking, his eyes were determined, and he silently pressed his hand on the knife hanging on his waist, ready to deal with possible changes at any time.
The corridor of the tomb was not very long. They quickly reached the ancient bronze door and saw corpses on the ground.
These corpses had no flesh, blood and internal organs, leaving only dark red skeletons, as if they had been eaten away by something.
Ma Chuanping and others believed that there were many dangers, and they were all prepared.
But what they didn't expect was that they didn't encounter any accidents after walking through the entire tomb corridor and burial pit.
Not only that, when they reached the door of the front room, they were stopped by the supervising team and asked to wait for the next order.
By this time, everyone was basically sure that Wu Qi had not deceived them, and there was no danger in the tomb.
As soon as everyone relaxed, they began to whisper in the dark.
"Who could have eliminated the danger here? You must know that many warriors failed to defeat it despite the joint efforts of many warriors. Isn't that person's strength too terrifying?"
"It should be the leader of the Ming Cult. We all know that he is in the same camp as King Wu, and only he has the strength to do it."
"I heard that the leader of the Ming Cult, Wei Wuji, has reached the martial arts level. Now it seems that he might be even stronger."
"Why do you think such a strong man would support the unknown His Highness King Wu? His Highness King Wu is not loved by Emperor Jian'an, and he does not have the support of his uncle's family. What's the point?"
"This is probably the strength of His Highness King Wu."
"How to say?"
"Since the death of the crown prince of Wei State, Emperor Jian'an intends to rename the crown prince, and is even willing to give him the title of King Wu. This shows that although these five princes are not favored, the Jian'an Emperor does not have many heirs, which is also within the scope of his consideration. Now is the time It’s a good time to provide help in times of need.”
The person who said this was a male Wei Wu soldier with a pale complexion named Le Yang.
He was a native of Nanjun, Wei State, and had studied under a Confucian school. Later, he abandoned literature and followed martial arts, and joined a martial arts force to practice martial arts.
It's a pity that not long after he practiced, the Wei-Chu war broke out in Nanjun, and his martial arts force was destroyed.
In desperation, he fled all the way here and became a soldier of Wei Wu by chance.
Because he was eloquent, liked to analyze practical matters, and seemed to be quite knowledgeable, he was promoted to the rank of corps leader.
Leyang's analysis attracted Ma Chuanping who was standing beside him, and he listened curiously with his ears raised.
"The leader of the Ming Cult wants to help His Highness King Wu, so he takes action. Think about it, His Highness King Wu is very weak. If the leader of the Ming Cult succeeds in helping him, how much benefit can he monopolize in the future?"
Leyang continued his analysis and said: "It is a well-known fact that the royal family in the world is declining, and many martial arts forces want to get a share of the pie. The Zhengyi Sect of Wei State has not made progress after so many years, and it will not be long before it can suppress other people who are ready to make moves. The martial arts power. The leader of the Ming Cult must also be aware of this."
Everyone listened with great interest.
"What do you think will be in this tomb? It's so laborious and laborious."
"I don't know. Seeing General Wu's appearance, he must have a lot of good things."
While everyone was chatting, someone from the front room of the cemetery walked out of the supervising team.
They glanced at everyone and nodded continuously: "You, you, you... you guys come in with me."
There were about seven or eight people selected, all of whom were corps commanders, or even senior officers.
Ma Chuanping and Le Yang were among them.
They seemed to look at each other with a tacit understanding, followed in silence without saying anything.
The supervising team in front of me is from the Imperial Guard and works very carefully.
When he called the names just now, it seemed casual, but in fact there was a secret behind it.
In his daily life, he has some records of supervising the army, and he has some impressions of some soldiers who have performed well and have a reliable attitude. Most of the people he named are also among these people.
Ma Chuanping and Leyang followed the supervising team and walked toward a side room.
At this time, several torches had been lit indoors, illuminating the scene in the side room clearly.
A mountain of wish stones and countless pieces of gold and jade were thrown into the corner like garbage.
"Gulu."
There were constant sounds of swallowing.
Ma Chuanping, Leyang and everyone else were speechless when they saw such a scene.
"Remove armor and get to work!"
The crisp, cold voice of the person supervising the battle team echoed in the tomb.
Ma Chuanping and Leyang noticed that there were wooden boxes and a sack full of locks placed in front of them.
"General Wu has an order. You will have extra rewards compared to the ordinary soldiers outside. For every ten boxes filled, you will get one tael of silver, and for every thirty boxes filled, you will get a wishing stone. But if you find a secret treasure, tell me Anyone else who does this will be punished without mercy." The supervising team member who was a royal guard carefully read out the instructions left by Wu Qi.
They saw that they could take advantage of it, and it was extra unique, which made their faces burst into bright smiles, and they instantly felt superior to others.
So they didn't say anything more. They took off their armor one by one, picked up the tools they had prepared, and got to work.
There was a fiery scene in the side room.
After a while, the wooden boxes filled with treasures were locked and carried out one by one. They were handed over to the soldiers outside to carry them to the ground, and new wooden boxes were brought in to continue filling.
The soldiers of Wei who were guarding outside did not know what was going on inside, but they worked honestly under the watchful eyes of the supervisors.
The entire Wei army was operating in an orderly manner just as they did during the battle.
In another side room, Wu Qi looked at the mountain-like real dragon in front of him with a moved expression.
"The capital of these His Highnesses has become stronger. Maybe I can really build an invincible army."
"General, how do you move this true dragon body out?"
"Saw it off, scale it, cramp it, peel it off, put it in a bag and take it away."
"Then will His Highness blame you for destroying this true dragon's body?"
"Just do as I say, and I will go to His Highness to apologize later."
After Wu Qi had observed him for such a long time, he knew that Zhao Hongming was a pragmatic person and did not care about false names or flashy things.
If he had brought the real dragon's corpse, he would have dismembered it and disposed of it, instead of just shelving it in a high cabinet for the sake of its false reputation.
Wu Qi could feel that if anything was useless, Zhao Hongming would discard it like worn out shoes, even if it were a human being.
After a day and a night of moving all the tombs in the underground, they were completely emptied.
Wu Qi transported these burial objects back to Prince Wu's Mansion overnight.
In order to avoid the covetousness of other martial arts forces, Zhao Hongming also asked Chang Wubing to transfer some Mingjiao disciples to ensure safety.
Fortunately, the result was as he expected and everything went smoothly.
Among them, some of the Wang family's outsiders and martial artists who wanted to fish in troubled waters wanted to snatch it, but they were all blocked by the Mingjiao.
So far, both the Wang family and the county governor had been uprooted by Zhao Hongming. Even the mixed martial arts forces were mostly severely damaged and out of place.
It was only a matter of time before the back was cleaned up.
From now on, King Wu Zhao Hongming can be regarded as a real prince, controlling most of the rights in Ying County.
At the same time, Daliang, the capital of Wei State, and Qianqing Palace.
Emperor Jian'an was immersed in reviewing and approving the memorial. Feng Daban walked in quickly and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, there is news about His Highness King Wu."
The current emperor of Wei State, Zhao Meixu, immediately put down what he was doing and said happily: "Tell me, has my King Wu done anything earth-shattering over there?"
"It is indeed a big event, Your Majesty." Feng Dabao said one after another: "In just over three months, His Highness King Wu has already eradicated the governor Chen Shenghai, the Wang family of the millennium family, and even his Majesty's delaying strategy before, moved many martial The academic forces were all destroyed by His Highness, and the integrated ones were scattered like birds and beasts."
"Okay!" Emperor Jian'an Zhao Meixu slammed the table and stood up excitedly: "He is indeed my good son. I did not misjudge him. It is really the great fortune of the Wei Dynasty to have such a prince."
Zhao Meixu walked out from behind the long desk and walked to the door of the hall in a happy mood. He took a long breath and said, "I have suffered from those martial arts forces for too long. Give Lao Wu some more time to let him As they grow up, these martial arts forces will become twilight and will no longer be able to overpower my royal family."
A martial artist in the Wudan realm can live to be two hundred years old, and a martial artist in the Creation realm can live to be four hundred years old.
In other words, as long as Zhao Hongming reaches the Wu Dan Realm or the Good Fortune Realm, he will be able to preserve Wei's social and national destiny for at least two hundred years.
Thinking of this, Zhao Meixu became even more excited.
In the palace, the fourth prince Zhao Hongli listened to the report of his subordinates and his expression was not very good.
"You said that there was a martial arts warrior in Ying County who supported Lao Wu and allowed Lao Wu to quickly establish a foothold in Ying County?" Zhao Hongli couldn't believe it and asked.
His mother-in-law, Concubine Hua, was from the Feng family. Feng Yi had just left a lot of buzz in Ying County, so he was very well-informed.
What Zhao Hongming did in Ying County also reached his ears.
When he heard this information, it was hard to accept it for a while.
You must know that there are only two or three warriors in the Wudan realm, even in our Feng family.
The fifth prince, Zhao Hongming, has the support of a martial artist with a martial arts level. Especially in this situation where the crown prince's position is unresolved, he might become a strong competitor for him.
"I really didn't expect Lao Wu to have such luck, but it doesn't matter. He is far away in Ying County, and I am in Daliang. If he wants to compete for the throne, he does not have an advantage." The fourth prince Zhao Hongli thought this way.
The second volume is almost finished. Looking back now, the content of the second volume was seriously off-topic, and the results were not very good. But fortunately, I can still take it back and continue along the main line. The author will learn from the lesson later and pay more attention to this aspect.
