This trip made everyone in Chaodaoling full of confidence.
They had the Ancestral Sacrifice Soul Sacrifice Map in hand, and knew the details of Yuan and Li's personal layout. They thought it was foolproof and the treasure would be at their fingertips.
However, they did not expect that the Ancestral Soul Palace was not an ordinary palace. These people were lucky enough to find the palace and get involved in the cave mountain. They did not know what mechanism they accidentally touched. They were dead and disabled. Dao Ling and Confucius Chao Feng, who was assisting outside, escaped and barely managed to save their lives.
After these court servants returned to the Bohai Kingdom, they told all they had seen and heard to the Bohai King. When the Bohai King heard the news, although it was a pity that the treasure was not found, he no longer dared to send people to search for it.
In the following years, the Bohai Kingdom also came to an end. Confucius Chaofeng gave the Ancestral Soul Sacrifice Picture to Haidong Shenghuang Da Yinzun, who took it into the underground palace.
From then on, this picture followed the Emperor Sheng of Haidong as he slept in the imperial mausoleum. As for the legend of Qinling Soul Palace, it was also cast with a mysterious and terrifying tone by folk tomb robbers. In the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, the world was in chaos and death. , and after nearly a hundred years of war and chaos, the number of people who know about the Ancestral Soul Palace has become even rarer, and even many existing ancient books and documents have been lost.
After listening to Chao Bingzhong's words, Yue Guanchao pondered for a moment and could vaguely guess what the old man meant. He rubbed his hands and said teasingly: "Old Master Chao, I looked at what you meant. I'm afraid you still want us to steal for you." Soul Palace, right?"
These words revealed Chao Bingzhong's intentions. Song Siyuan quickly grabbed his sleeve and lowered her voice to explain: "Don't speak so bluntly, the old man still wants to save face."
Chao Bingzhong was directly criticized by Yue Guanchao, and he coughed lightly to cover up:
"Eldest nephew, you may have misunderstood me. I stole the Haidong Emperor's Mausoleum from my family not for treasure, but to cure my curse. Now that the curse has been cured, it's not like my family doesn't have serious business. It's really not a crime to covet the things in the tomb. Besides, Emperor Haidong Sheng was unkind and unjust. We dug his tomb and it was karmic retribution. We can't blame anyone. However, this is not the case in the Ancestral Soul Palace. Although the Li and Tang royal family were on guard against Yuan The two of them, Li, did not kill her, but allowed her to grow old naturally."
"Even if they are chasing the Li Yuan clan, they will show mercy and stop as soon as they reach the Sheng Kingdom of Haidong. The Li Tang royal family already understands its intention. As long as they no longer set foot in the Tang Dynasty, they can live in peace."
These words were so high-sounding that Yue Guanchao didn't believe them: "Then, why did your ancestor help Da Yin Zun steal the soul palace? Didn't you think so at the time?"
Chao Bingzhong shook his head. He didn't know whether his expression was good or bad. He could only see the vague and complicated emotions: "Eldest nephew, the Bohai royal family saved the Li Yuan people. Chao Feng went to Daohun Palace purely to repay his kindness. The Soul Palace can only be said to have its own destiny."
"Speaking of it, it was indeed very evil at the time~"
Chao Bingzhong paused and talked about the secret he heard from his ancestor:
"At that time, there were rules for paying homage to the master. Once the father failed to guard his son when he went to the tomb, the father could only wait at the exit to take care of him. However, the leader of the master dynasty at that time was Li Xingzong. He knew that the Soul Palace was dangerous, so he specially asked him to be the youngest. His son Li Daoling stayed outside the tomb to guard him, and only took Da Lang Erlang into the cave mountain to hunt for treasures, but he never came out again."
"Why is there such a rule?"
Song Siyuan listened carefully to Chao Bingzhong's words. She still didn't understand the rules of the tomb robbing business, but Yue Qingshan was an old man in the world. He explained:
"Since ancient times, the relationship between father and son has been that the father is in front and the son is behind. People say that if you are not a parent, you will not know how hard it is to be a parent. There is also a saying among the people that tigers are poisonous and will not eat their children. If the father is left outside, what happens in the tomb? The thing is, at least the father will not give up on the child, but if the child is outside and there is really trouble, then the father can only bear it on his own, and the child outside the tomb may have disappeared without a trace. "
"Anyway, I don't know who passed down the rule. If a family sets up a scene to rob a tomb, the father must not be allowed to go to the tomb."
Yue Guanchao noticed the meaning of Yue Qingshan's words and guessed: If you want to put it this way, the corpse in the cave mountain is actually the ancestor of the Chao family? "
"Yes, if ancestor Li Xingzong had been guarding outside Caoshan at that time, the outcome might have been completely different. But things have already happened, and there is no one who sells regret medicine in this world. The remaining people had no choice but to return in despair."
After Mr. Chao said these words, he looked at Mr. Yue. His eyes became sincere, and there were even a few tears in his eyes:
"Brother Yue, I am already so old. I don't think I will be far away from death if I enter the Soul Palace. However, my ancestors have taught us through generations. If we want future generations to rescue the bones of our ancestors, we must do our best if we have the spare capacity. If It’s okay if there is no ancestral bloodline soul sacrifice map, but this sacrifice map was lost and recovered, doesn’t it represent God’s will in the dark? If I can beg for the bones of my ancestors from the Soul Palace, it will be considered as fulfilling one of my wishes.”
"Look at my children, they are all useless. The young teachers and young teachers are all incompetent. They don't even dare to rob the tomb of the Haidong Emperor this time. Instead, my eldest nephew was ordered to help me in the face of danger. He was very busy with the Chao family and became my benefactor, Chao Bingzhong."
"If you are willing to go to the Soul Palace again, all the treasures in the palace will be yours. My family only wants the bones of our ancestors. If you violate this, the sky will thunder... and you will not be able to use it."
