"But I remember the Chao family said that most of the elite Chao Fengtian officials are among them. Logically speaking, these two bones should not be the only ones in this palace. What about the other corpses of the Chao Feng Master?"
Song Siyuan also felt strange about Yue Qingshan's question. Could it be that only Li Daocheng from Li Xuan Mansion came to the temple and the rest died outside?
If he really died outside, even if he had turned into bones and rotten flesh, there would still be traces. They didn't see other people's bones along the way.
If the bones really disappeared, there are only two possibilities:
First, the corpse did not enter the Soul Palace and was eaten by the water monkey outside the Soul Palace.
Secondly, the corpses had entered the Soul Palace. They met some tomb-guarding beasts in the Soul Palace, and they were all killed by the beasts. Only this father and son survived by chance and died here for some reason.
If the first situation is true, it's okay. If the second situation comes true, it means that their danger is right in front of them.
Thinking of this, Yue Guanchao's heart seemed to be filled with a ball of cotton, and he felt very uncomfortable.
"Now we have to see how to bring the body back. We definitely can't just drag the body away. We have to find a way to bring the things back."
Before Song Siyuan finished speaking, Yue Guanchao took out the fire certificate and signaled to everyone: "Burn the body on the spot, take some of the ashes back, and at most send back the official seal of Chaofengtian and two nameplates. This can help them identify themselves, I guess." If these two bodies are burned, there will be no shortage of ashes."
After saying that, Yue Guanchao picked up the two corpses, like dragging two dead dogs, and dragged the corpses outside the palace and placed them on the stone square in front of the palace.
The corpse could hold up to a thousand years, which was the limit. When it was dragged, it looked like a wooden chair that had been in disrepair. The bones were cracking and breaking. When he shook off the name tag and metal on the corpse, a roll of yellow cloth rolled out from it.
He picked up the roll of yellow cloth, which was tied with a cowhide rope. After untying the cowhide rope, he stretched it out and it was about the same as a half-meter-long handkerchief.
"There's still writing on it. It's probably a suicide note."
He lowered his head and observed the handwriting carefully. These handwritings should have been made from the ink pad in the seal box. After thousands of years of drying, the color has not faded. There is even a hint of ink fragrance due to the age. The seal characters of ancient books are densely written all over the handkerchief.
Yue Guanchao always couldn't understand classical Chinese, so he handed the things to Song Siyuan. She carefully observed the words with a flashlight and slowly explained the meaning of the seal characters:
I and Chao Fengfu entered the Soul Palace with the intention of obtaining the treasures of the Li Tang family for the Haidong Emperor. It was because my ancestors protected Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng after their marriage, so that we could leave the Soul Palace to retrieve the treasures from the Soul Palace. Unexpectedly, we went through thousands of evil experiences and entered the Soul Palace. All the companions were eaten by the soul palace tomb beasts.
I and Daocheng were lucky enough to survive, but we were also seriously injured and it was difficult to travel, because it was because of our family. If we cannot explore the treasure in his tomb and return it to the prosperous country of Haidong, we will be unworthy of the kindness we have received. After thinking about it, we can no longer come up with a plan. The two of us will be buried in the tomb together to guard the souls of our ancestors. I will tell you early. Because when I see the descendants in Lianshan, they ask for the bones to be burned, and only the ashes are taken for burial.
In the prosperous country of Haidong, in the 30th year of Emperor Yin's reign, he sent a letter to the palace of Fengtian official Li Xuan.
"What do you mean?" Yue Guanchao asked.
Song Siyuan sent Buddha to the West and simply translated the classical Chinese text again:
Master Chao Feng and I entered the Soul Palace originally to find the treasures of the Li Tang family for Emperor Haidong. We originally thought that we were the in-law descendants of Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, and that using the protection of our ancestors, we could freely enter and exit the Soul Palace to steal the treasures from the Soul Palace, but we didn’t. Thinking that after going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers to enter the Soul Palace, most of the companions were eaten by the tomb-suppressing beasts in the Soul Palace.
Daocheng and I were lucky enough not to die, but we were also seriously injured and could not walk. If we could not bring the treasures in the tomb back to Haidong Shengguo, we would be ashamed of the emperor's favor. After thinking about it, there was no need to go out, so the two of us decided Being buried in a tomb can also be regarded as keeping watch in the Soul Palace of the ancestors. I have long known through Lianshan Yishu that future generations will come to find the bones, burn them with fire, and only take away part of the ashes for burial.
In the prosperous country of Haidong, in the 30th year of Emperor Yin's reign, he sent a letter to the palace of Fengtian official Li Xuan.
As soon as the meaning of the classical Chinese came out, their eyes widened. Yue Guanchao did say that he would burn the corpse just now. Seeing that the meaning in the classical Chinese was the same as what he did, their eyes widened unconsciously, as if the corpse was talking to them after thousands of years. My scalp was numb for a moment.
"Hiss, this Lian Shanyi is too scary. Is it possible that he can really predict major events in the next thousand years?"
Xu Xiake knew that the Lian Shan Yi technique had been lost and no one preserved it in the world. He accidentally learned that these ten corpses could perform the Lian Shan Yi technique, and his eyebrows were full of curiosity.
"Okay, regardless of whether this old man can count or not, we have fulfilled our responsibility. When the time comes, we will put this thing into the ashes and take it back with us."
