After hearing the monk's words "See you tomorrow", except for Haibulu, the expressions of the other princes all changed drastically.
As for Haibulu, he still looked confused.
I don't know if he didn't wake up from sleep, or if he lost his soul and turned into a walking corpse.
The experiences along the way, especially what they saw and heard after arriving at Dajin Mountain, made several princes realize that this so-called funeral ceremony might not be as simple as they thought before.
But now, the Imperial Preceptor asked them to carry the coffin, which made them tremble even more. They were very suspicious. Did the Imperial Preceptor want them to carry the coffin to the funeral, or did he want them to die for the late king?
Among this group of princes, the oldest one is the second prince.
The eldest prince died a few years ago. Unfortunately, the second prince had a fun-loving nature and was mediocre in ability. Although he was the oldest among the brothers, he never had much strength or ability.
But at this time, the second prince took advantage of his age and said with a dry smile: "Old Seven, down here is where the Qingtang Dragon Vein is. Although we are princes, we are not qualified to get close to the dragon vein... Why don't we just let it go? You and the third child will send our father's Zi Palace down on our behalf, right?"
By saying this, he also expressed that he had no interest in the throne at all, would not threaten Zikander, and begged the other party to let him go.
Unfortunately, the second prince misjudged what the other party wanted.
What the other party wants is not a throne, but a new life!
So, as soon as the second prince finished speaking, without waiting for Rikander's answer, he felt something cold and snake-like crawling up his back.
Before he could react, the thing quickly wrapped around his neck.
In an instant, he felt as if a cold collar was put on his neck.
And the collar was still tightening hard, causing severe pain in his neck and making him unable to breathe.
The frightened second prince hurriedly stretched out his hands, grabbed the cold snake-like thing, and tried to pull it away from his neck. However, he tried his best, but to no avail.
The regretful second prince wanted to beg for mercy, but something as cold as a snake around his neck choked him so that he couldn't make a sound at all.
Just when he was filled with despair and thought he was going to die here, the old King Qingtang spoke in his ear with Rikander's voice:
"I'll give you another chance. If anyone refuses to hold the coffin and see my father off for the last journey, then I will send him down and let him explain to his father... If you are willing to go, raise your hands and I will count to three. "Those who haven't raised their hands after three calls, please don't blame me for being ruthless and disrespectful of brotherhood."
The second prince hurriedly raised his hand without any hesitation, and then felt the pressure on his neck instantly reduce.
After the disaster, he gasped for breath and breathed in the air greedily.
It was also at this moment that the second prince realized that it was not just him who had just slipped through the gate of hell, but also several other princes.
The brothers all wore a blood-red 'collar' around their necks.
These collars look like the strings used to control a puppet show, but they are slightly thicker.
It is from the puppet marshal.
Sensing the second prince's gaze, the puppet marshal suddenly looked towards him with his eyes hidden under the black cloak and hat.
Those blood-red and lifeless eyes frightened the second prince so much that he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look again for fear that his soul would be taken away by him.
"Are you out of breath? If you are out of breath, go and carry the coffin for your father!"
The old Qingtang King's voice sounded again, and at the same time, the string collars wrapped around the princes' necks were tightened again. The frightened princes rushed to carry the coffin, not daring to slack off at all, for fear that they would be slow. His head would be cut off by this manifestation collar.
Seeing that the 'See You Tomorrow' monk, Old Qingtang King and others were about to enter the cave and go to the Dragon Vein, Qin Shaoyou and the commanders of several patrol camps and the inner guard mansion immediately led people to follow.
'See you tomorrow' Although the monk did not look back, he heard the noise behind him.
He announced the Buddha's name and said: "This cave is the Holy Land of Qingtang. You warriors are too ferocious. It's better not to follow, to avoid any accidents, and wait outside the cave."
Old Qingtang King raised his eyebrows slightly.
He didn't want Qin Shaoyou and others to follow him. After all, the less people knew about what happened next, the better, otherwise he would just kill people.
But he didn't worry about 'seeing' the monk tomorrow.
Especially since this guy was able to develop a group of followers in Dajin Mountain.
Old Qingtang King glanced at the wizards gathered at the entrance of the cave and said solemnly: "Then these wizards..."
'See you tomorrow.' The monk understood the implication and replied: "All the wizards will be waiting outside the cave. They cannot be allowed to disturb the peace of the late king."
Old Qingtang King felt a little more relieved.
He turned around and ordered Qin Shaoyou and others: "You stay here to guard and guard. No one can step into the dragon's veins without my permission!"
Then he pointed at Tai Sui Shenjun and other wild gods, and said to the monk 'See you tomorrow': "They want to go down with me!"
In the view of the old Qingtang King, as long as the wild god is with him, he is not afraid of the "see you tomorrow" monk causing trouble, so he just left Dazan and other commanders outside the Dragon Vein, staring at these wizards.
Whether it is a wizard who was bewitched and bribed by the 'See You Tomorrow' monk, or a follower of Zoldan, at this time, you must be careful and be careful. You must not let these people ruin his rebirth!
'See you tomorrow.' The monk glanced at Tai Sui Shenjun and others. His expression was as usual, showing no sadness or joy. He nodded and said, "Since the king has spoken, let them go together."
Then he turned around and continued walking deeper into the cave.
Seeing this scene, Old Qingtang King frowned slightly, unsure whether the national master was not afraid of these wild gods, or because he was magnanimous and did not care whether there were wild gods accompanying him or not.
But now, we can only take one step at a time.
Old Qingtang King waved his hand, and the One-Horned Five-Tong God immediately carried him on his shoulders.
Tai Sui Shenjun and other wild gods immediately surrounded him, protected him, and followed the 'see you tomorrow' monk.
Behind them, there were princes with sad faces, carrying heavy coffins.
Although they did not dare to complain, these princes complained in their hearts: "Let us hold the coffin, why don't you hold it yourself?"
At the same time, their mood became more and more uneasy, feeling that there was unknown danger waiting for them in the dragon vein.
Before entering the cave, Tai Sui Shenjun, Wu Nu Fairy, and Puppet Marshal calmly exchanged glances with Qin Shaoyou.
After these people filed into the cave, Qin Shaoyou immediately took Cui Youyan, Zhu Xiucai and others to occupy the entrance of the cave, and drove other people from the inner guard mansion and patrol camp to the outer perimeter and other places to set up defenses.
In this regard, although several commanders of the Imperial Guard and the patrol camp were dissatisfied, they did not argue with Qin Shaoyou.
In the past period of time, Dazan's crazy reputation had been widely spread, and he was deeply trusted by the Seventh Prince, so these commanders did not want to have any trouble with him.
These commanders didn't know Qin Shaoyou's true intention. They only thought that he was standing alone at the entrance of the cave because he wanted to flatter and gain performance. Although they were dissatisfied, they did not want to anger a madman and make him a mess.
Several commanders never expected that the loyal dog Dazan of Rikander occupied the entrance to the dragon vein, not for flattery and performance, but to destroy their king and their national master, and even wanted to do so. Pack them up and kill them all...
