Climb the mountain to view the tomb of King Jie.
Fan Li once visited the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum and saw the majesty of the underground palace and the power of the Twelve Golden Men, not to mention the magnificence of Epang Palace and the mystery of the pseudo-immortal world of the Emperor's Mausoleum!
He had also read in books that the tombs of the Han emperors stolen by Dong Zhuo were also amazing and magnificent masterpieces.
The emperor is nourished by the world.
When you are alive, you are extremely noble, and when you die, you are extremely honorable and mournful.
But the tomb of King Jie in front of him was a completely different scene.
barren mountain.
Lonely grave.
Rotten tomb.
Broken coffin.
Yes, even the emperor's coffin was badly damaged.
Fan Li and his party did not dig the tomb or open the coffin. When they approached the tomb of King Jie, they found that the tomb was not sealed at all.
"This... was someone digging the grave?" Bai Jiu asked doubtfully.
Outside of chess, her knowledge is not much better than that of ordinary women.
Before Fan Li could speak, Huang Longshi shook his head and said, "Probably not. There are no traces of robbery in the tomb. It's more like...like..."
He didn't know how to continue.
The tomb of King Jie seems to have never been sealed.
In the tomb, the coffins were placed haphazardly and exposed. Even if you look closely, you can see that the coffin lid does not fit tightly, as if it was barely made to fit.
Everything in front of me is really unbelievable.
The tomb of King Jie is only ten meters long, five meters wide and only about three meters deep.
If it weren't for the monument in front of the tomb, and it was in such a dangerous place, even Fan Li wouldn't have believed that this was really the tomb of King Jie.
Such a shabby, leaky, and dilapidated cemetery turned out to be an imperial mausoleum, and it couldn't even be completed and sealed?
Jie?
No matter what he was like before his death, he was desolate and desolate after his death, lacking the majesty of an emperor.
The three of them observed the tomb and found that in addition to a broken coffin, there were also several sets of skeletons lying scattered around the coffin.
The erosion of time.
In an unsealed tomb like this, after thousands or even tens of thousands of years, the mortal bones should have turned into dust long ago.
However, the skeletons are largely intact.
Fan Li speculated that this meant at least two things:
1. The deceased had good cultivation before their bodies, and their skeletons can withstand the corrosion of time better than those of mortals.
2. South Nest has been in an absolutely closed state for a long time. No outsiders, no matter humans, birds or beasts, have ever arrived here. For example, the animal bones that Fan Li saw in the sea of fog, probably no beast has ever come out of the sea of fog alive.
"or……"
Bai Jiu hesitated. She occasionally glanced at King Jie's tomb, full of disgust.
"Let's take a look around again? Maybe this is a fake tomb, a suspicious tomb or something like that?"
"Anyway, why is the king's tomb so shabby?"
Bai Jiu's words failed to impress the two men around him at all.
Fan Li observed the tomb carefully, refusing to miss any detail.
Seeing his silence, Bai Jiu gradually became annoyed and irritable.
"Hello!"
"What do you mean?"
"Didn't you hear me? I really don't want to stay here for a moment. We still..."
Before Bai Jiu finished speaking, he saw Fan Li jumping into the grave.
She was stunned and hesitated to shut up, unwilling to leave alone or follow Fan Li.
Huang Longshi did not hesitate and immediately followed into the tomb.
"Mr. Jin, what did you find?" Huang Longshi asked in a low voice.
"look."
Fan Li pointed to the coffin that was not completely covered, and then pointed to several skeletons lying beside the coffin.
"These skeletons should have died first and were carried and placed in the tomb."
"Then, the body of the tomb owner was put into the coffin."
Huang Longshi nodded repeatedly when he heard this.
"exactly."
"No matter what dynasty or generation or custom in ancient times, the tomb was dug first and then the people, objects and sacrifices were placed."
"Finally, the tomb owner was placed in the coffin and sealed with earth."
As Huang Longshi was talking, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Fengtu?"
"Why not seal the land?"
"We have already done all the digging of the tomb, the placement of the burial companions, and the burial of the tomb owner in the coffin. Why not complete the last step and let the deceased rest underground?"
Bai Jiu listened on top of the tomb, feeling that this topic was really boring and worthless for discussion.
"What's so weird about this?"
"Perhaps Jie was a foolish king. The people of the country at that time were jealous of him and deliberately did not seal the king's tomb and let his body be exposed in the wild?"
Bai Jiu was very confident in his reasoning.
Hum!
Since Nanchao is a prisoner country and Jie was buried in a desperate situation, I guess he is not a good person.
No matter how glorious you are in life, it is natural to be cast aside after death.
However, Bai Jiu found that Fan Li had an undisguised look of contempt on his face after listening to her remarks.
Even the thin Confucian scholar Huang Longshi trembled at the corner of his mouth, as if he was disdainful, but did not dare to show it.
"What? What I said is wrong?!"
Bai Jiu was very angry.
If Fan Li hadn't been her inner demon, he would have slapped him away.
"It's indeed wrong." Fan Li said calmly.
"good!"
"I am all ears. Let me hear what Duke Jin has to say!"
Bai Jiu sneered again and again.
She didn't believe that Fan Li was so young and his cultivation was so low. How could his knowledge be better than hers?
"first."
"Since we entered the South Nest, we have repeatedly encountered ancient ruins."
“There are farmlands, houses, and city-states.”
"Although the ruins of the ancient Nanchao Kingdom have gradually become blurred due to the passage of time, we can still see the orderliness and social stability of the past."
Fan Li paused briefly, and Bai Jiu snorted coldly.
in Apple pie order?
Social stability?
So what, it’s not the destruction of the country.
"Looking at the tombs, there are citizens buried with them after they die."
"The burial companions were either partners, princes, ministers, or citizens, regardless of their status, they were moved into the tomb after death. It can be seen that these people's intention during life should be to be buried with King Jie."
"After all, if you don't do it willingly, even if you flatter him while you are alive, you will never be able to serve King Jie underground again after your death."
Bai Jiu could not refute, so he continued to remain silent.
It was just that she was disdainful and thought, what does Fan Li's nonsense have to do with Jie's revenge after his death?
"Ah! Xiaosheng understands!"
Before Fan Li could continue, Huang Longshi had already understood.
Fan Li glanced at Huang Longshi appreciatively and motioned for him to talk.
"King Jie was imprisoned in Nanchao, and the people followed him here."
"In the last years of King Jie's life, no matter what happened, he must have allowed his people to live a prosperous and peaceful life."
"Therefore, the people of Nanchao will not hate King Jie, and are even willing to be buried with him after his death."
After hearing this, Bai Jiu already understood that Fan Li was right.
She was blushing, but she couldn't accept this reality no matter what.
It is not the reality that King Jie is loved by his people, but the reality that Fan Li is more knowledgeable than her, and even Huang Longshi is smarter than her.
How can this be?
He is the Holy Master of Daci Dynasty Chess!
There are only two bad men around, but they are both better than me? !
"good!"
"Okay, okay!"
The more Bai Jiu thought about it, the angrier he became, and he insisted on fighting to the death!
"Then please explain why the tomb of King Jie, who is loved by his people, is not sealed with earth."
"Where are his people? Where are his ministers? Where is his beloved concubine?"
"All dead?"
"No one has sealed the soil for his beloved His Majesty's mausoleum?!"
Bai Jiu's question actually made Fan Li silent.
Seeing that he couldn't answer, Bai Jiu finally felt a little proud.
hehe!
Fan Li is nothing more than that!
"Holy Lord, maybe what you said is right."
After coming over for a while, Fan Li spoke.
Bai Jiu was confused: "What? Everything is right? Please speak clearly."
Fan Li sighed and said slowly: "Perhaps it is because all the people in Nanchao Kingdom are dead that no one can seal the land for King Jie."
"Pfft!"
Bai Jiu was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"The more you talk, the more ridiculous it becomes!"
"Fan Li, listen to what you are saying?"
"Because everyone is dead and there is no one to seal the land for King Jie?"
"Then I ask you, if everyone in Nanchao Kingdom dies, who will dig King Jie's tomb? Who will carry King Jie's burial companions? And who will bury King Jie's body in the coffin?!"
After Bai Jiu finished speaking, he laughed proudly again.
Fan Li was very calm.
He did not become angry and lose control because of the ridicule of the Holy Lord of Chess.
Even the calm gaze he looked at Bai Jiu seemed to be sighing silently, sighing that this woman was so shallow and stupid.
"Perhaps... King Jie did all these things himself and then lay in the coffin until he died?"
Huang Longshi spoke cautiously, and Bai Jiujiu's laughter stopped abruptly!
The air seemed to be frozen.
There is no wind on the barren mountain, but the chill is biting.
Bai Jiujiu swallowed hard and wanted to refute, but her intuition told her that Huang Longshi... no, Fan Li was right.
But!
Is there such an unbelievable thing happening in the whole world?
Jie, an ancient king, is so miserable?
Did he dig his own grave?
Did he arrange burial objects for himself?
He buried himself in a coffin! ?
"me you him……"
Bai Jiu opened his mouth and stammered three words, but he couldn't form a sentence.
She was so confused that she didn't know what to say.
Fan Li suddenly said: "Holy Lord, King Jie's tomb has been found, how to find out the chess game next? This should be your task, right?"
"knew."
Bai Jiujiu had a gloomy face.
She took out a white jade box, only the size of a palm.
The jade box was opened, and inside was a white cloud from Go.
"What is this?" Fan Li asked knowingly.
Even with his cultivation in the Golden Core Realm, he could clearly feel the faint spiritual power on the white clouds.
So, is this Yunzi from a certain Go Lingbao?
wrong!
Fan Li observed Yunzi carefully and found that its supposedly round surface actually had many tiny bumps.
Every well-educated Confucian scholar in this world is a professional connoisseur of cultural relics.
Fan Li inherited the knowledge of the original owner and almost immediately recognized that these potholes were not caused recently.
They are all traces of time!
This is a little bit of accumulated wear and tear over endless long years!
Fan Li couldn't help but ask: "Could it be King Jie..."
Bai Jiu nodded: "This chess piece can definitely come from King Jie's chess game."
"How to use it?!" Fan Li couldn't wait to speak.
It's a pity that Bai Jiu didn't know this either.
"I got this chess piece by chance."
"The chess pieces and the chessboard are a natural match. With the guidance of the chess pieces, I was able to lock the location of the South Nest."
"Therefore, I am sure that King Jie's chessboard is in the South Nest."
"It's just that the closer you get to the South Nest, or even after entering the South Nest, the more blurry your perception of the chessboard position becomes."
Bai Jiu said with a look of confusion on his face.
She didn't lie.
With the guidance of the chess pieces, Bai Jiujiu came to Nanchao for the first time, almost thinking that he was about to obtain the ancient secret treasure.
As a result, after crossing the sea of fog, she completely lost her perception of the chessboard's position.
If not, she might not invite Fan Li to come with her.
Bai Jiujiu had a vague intuition in his heart. The mysterious chess game left over from ancient times would never have appeared in the world without the presence of the world's first chess player.
Maybe she doesn't deserve it?
Thinking of this, Bai Jiujiu's hatred for Fan Li inexplicably became stronger.
She should be the best person in the world of chess.
"Fan Li, what do you think is in King Jie's coffin? Will it be buried with a chess board, chess records, etc.?" Bai Jiu asked with some anticipation.
It turns out that she didn’t even know this?
Fan Li glanced at Bai Jiu with a strange expression.
"Holy Lord Bai, given your status as you and me, to risk an unknown ancient treasure here, is it too rash?"
Bai Jiu's face froze!
She wanted to say, if you, Fan Li, had not become my inner demon, why would this happen?
However, how many people in the world can resist the temptation of the treasure left by the ancient emperor?
"I think it's necessary to open the coffin for inspection." Bai Jiu changed the subject forcibly.
The more noble a woman is, the better her face.
After she finished speaking, she strode to King Jie's coffin without waiting for Fan Li's answer.
"wait……"
Fan Li was shocked and was about to dissuade him.
This woman's arrogance was beyond his imagination!
Where did she get her confidence and lack the basic respect for ignorant things?
That's too late.
When Bai Jiujiu held the chess piece and stood almost next to King Jie's coffin, a sudden change occurred!
The chess piece flew away from Bai Jiu's palm almost instantly, emitted a strange purple light, soared into the sky, and flew towards the rolling sea of angry thunder clouds in the sky of Nanchao!
"What...what's going on?" Bai Jiu murmured.
No one answered her question.
Because as the chess pieces flew into the sea of clouds, an even weirder picture appeared!
The sea of angry thunder clouds covering the entire South Nest sky disappeared.
But instead, the entire sky turned into a huge chessboard!
Bloody chessboard!
On the chessboard, there are nineteen lines across the board, which are actually nineteen long rivers.
The clouds that have fallen on the chessboard are like mountains!
Fan Li could clearly see that the cloud that flew into the sky from Bai Jiujiu's hand gradually became huge.
finally!
It also turned into a huge mountain and landed firmly on the chessboard!
The country is a chess piece!
Fan Li was deeply shocked. This was the first time since he time traveled that he felt the true supernatural power of this world of cultivation!
In his ears, Bai Jiujiu's trembling and excited voice came.
"I...I...can I get this chessboard?"
Fan Li turned his face and looked at her with a look of retardation.
This look clearly says: Are you worthy?
Bai Jiujiu was stunned at first, and immediately understood that Fan Li despised him!
She became angry with shame, but there was nothing she could do!
However, Bai Jiujiu is absolutely sure that if he possesses such a treasure of chess and understands the endless mysteries, he will be able to get rid of his inner demons immediately.
It's even easy to surpass the eldest sister in cultivation and ascend to the immortal world instantly!
