After Chao Wenshun introduced Ge Da and Mao Ye, the two looked at Yue Guanchao and nodded slightly. They bowed their hands and saluted, which was regarded as a formal meeting.
"Chaotong family, the Tang family agrees to be divided into two."
Song Siyuan handed over the reply letter from the Tang family. Chao Wenshun seemed to have expected that the Tang family would compromise, and there was no surprise on his face, but a feeling that it should be taken for granted.
Chao Wenshun put down the note and picked up the tea cup:
"That being the case, when do you two want to leave? It's almost October, and the temperature has dropped sharply. If it's another half month, the mountains will be covered with snow."
His meaning was very clear. If he didn't go, it would become more difficult to go to the grave when the forest was covered by heavy snow and there was at least half a meter of snow in the forest.
"In the past few days, please ask Dong Chao to help us prepare all the necessary materials for the kiln, so that we can naturally go to the tomb."
Yue Guanchao came out of Xing'an Mountains and became more and more proficient in Mandarin. He was quite unwilling to bite the bullet, but now he had to mediate with these wealthy families.
Chao Wenshun nodded slightly and rubbed the jade string in his hand:
"Okay, I will let the butler buy these things for you. Before you go to the mountains, Chao wants to remind you that there are indeed strange things in the tomb of Haidong Shenghuang. You must take care of them carefully and don't be careless."
Song Siyuan looked at him: "What you said about not being able to return even if you are destined to die, you are referring to the weird thing in the tomb!"
"Yes, please move forward, I will take you to see for yourself, then you will understand everything."
Chao Wenshun repeatedly exaggerated the strangeness in the tomb, and everyone was curious. Naturally, they followed the old man to find out.
Exit the south living room, step into the fifth courtyard, and enter the business hall on the west side of the back garden.
As soon as they entered the cold room, everyone immediately felt the biting coldness, and they could actually breathe out hot air in the room.
In front of everyone, a row of beds appeared, with corpses obviously lying on them, all covered with white cloths.
Yue Guanchao approached and lifted up the white cloth. When he saw the body clearly, he couldn't help but gasp.
These corpses were all in their thirties or forties, wearing black coats, gray trousers, and red turbans. Their bodies and faces were covered in the smelly corpse mud from the tombs. It goes without saying that they were tomb robbers.
"Are these the country folk from last month?"
Chao Wenshun nodded and responded to his guess.
"That's not right. Didn't you say that these tomb robbers died because of their lack of cooperation? Why do they seem to be dug out of the mud!"
Song Siyuan looked at these corpses carefully. Not only were their bodies covered with mud, even their fingernails were filthy, they even had varying degrees of scratches on their bodies. On their necks, a row of bloody beast teeth marks had dried and turned black.
"It looked like something happened in the tomb. They were all bitten to death."
Song Siyuan's words caught the attention of Ge Da and Mao Ye, and they followed the body to the couch.
Geda looked at the wound, his bright pupils flashed with a strange color:
"Could it be bitten by wild animals? Changbai Mountain has been closed for three hundred years, and there are ligers, tigers, wolves, and leopards. If you really encounter these things, you will be doomed."
Cat Master did not agree with Geda's words. His expression became strange. He took out the silver glove from the bag on his waist, put it on his hand and stabbed half of his finger into the wound.
When I took it to the window and looked at it, I saw that the gloves, which were originally as white as snow, were corroded by black blood and turned as black as ink, as if they had been burned by charcoal fire.
Mr. Cat looked at the dark fingers, the strange look in his eyes getting darker:
"Silly boy, the beast's claws are just sharp. My gloves are woven with silver wire and not mixed with any copper. If the silver turns black, I think you also know what's going on."
"Not only are the minions poisonous, their poison can even travel through the bloodstream and into the lungs. The faces of these corpses are also mostly black and purple."
Master Mao's words made everyone have an intuitive feeling about the power of Bohai Royal Tomb, and they all looked at Chao Wenshun.
"These local masters encountered strange things in the tomb of Mrs. Qionghua. These people used explosives to collapse the tomb passage in order to escape. However, these people overdosed and sealed themselves in the tomb passage."
"The local masters who were in charge above were afraid of letting the monster out, so they insisted on going to the Changbai County government office to report the case, and they also wanted to tell us everything about their plans and ours. This exposed the Chao family. We can only kill all the people who were in charge first, and then send one The native master went to punish the county, and half of the things obtained from the tomb were given to the county governor."
"When they get the stolen goods, they naturally won't pursue it too much. For the court family, it's just that there are fewer grave goods, so it's not too bad."
"Then, what exactly is this thing?"
The native master is already dead, and there is no point in further investigation. Rather than calling for justice for these tomb robbers, Yue Guanchao wants to know who the things in the tombs of the Bohai royal family are.
Chao Wenshun shook his head and his face became extremely serious:
"I don't know. The imperial family just chose the site for the mausoleum. There are craftsmen who built the mausoleum. Moreover, the Bohai royal family is from the Northern clan. It is reasonable to have any tomb-guarding beast."
"As for my ancestors, it is true that they buried Emperor Haidong in the mausoleum, but they also knew that among the things buried with him, there were indeed living things, but they didn't know what they were. After so many years, the court did not preserve this The origin file of the object, let alone what it is."
"In the past, people from the imperial family stole the tombs of the Bei clan from other dynasties. They just stole the tombs of the Bohai nobles the month before last, and these things happened immediately."
“That’s it, everyone should have an idea in mind.”
