Chapter 775 Do You Go to Immortal Burying Valley?
“Who is that?” Gao Ge stares at Lu Yanran and asks.
Lu Yanran takes a deep breath and says, “According to my mistress, an emperor of the Jin Empire wanted to build a tomb under the sea.”
Gao Ge frowns and then nods.
It is pretty close to his guess.
He has had a guess before. After all, it is known that the tomb under the sea was built in the Song Dynasty but it doesn’t mean that the tomb owner is an emperor of the Song Dynasty.
“Which emperor of the Jin Empire?” Earth Dragon asks.
“Wanyan Sheng.”
“Wanyan Sheng? Who was he?” Gao Ge blurts out.
Earth Dragon takes a meaningful look at Gao Ge and says in a deep voice, “You must be poor at studying. He was Emperor Taizong of Jin.”
Gao Ge takes a tumble but he feels that Earth Dragon’s comment on him is too one-sided. He dares to say that probably 80% of people in Huaxia don’t know who Emperor Taizong of Jin is. Even those who are slightly interested in history have no interest in the countries like the Jin Empire and the Liao Empire!
Earth Dragon continues saying to Gao Ge, “Apart from that, it was Emperor Taizong of Jin who exterminated the North Song Dynasty and the Liao Empire. It is still pretty likely that the tomb owner is him.”
Gao Ge looks at Lu Yanran curiously and says, “If so, when Wanyan Sheng died, you should be dead too? Were you still alive?”
Lu Yanran chuckles and says, “If he died, could he have such a big tomb built?”
Gao Ge pats his forehead.
He realizes that his question was a bit stupid.
If Wanyan Sheng really died, how could the succeeding emperor spend so many human resources and material resources building such a tomb? The tomb must be built when Wanyan Sheng was on the throne.
However, Earth Dragon seems to have a different opinion on what Lu Yanran said just now.
“Didn’t Wanyan Sheng die in Mingde Palace and then get buried in Heling mausoleum?” It has been recorded in history. It seems that Earth Dragon still has a wide knowledge of such a thing. As it appears, if one wants to gain a foothold in the Dragon Court, he must be cultured.
Lu Yanran says causally, “According to my mistress, back then, Wanyan Sheng noticed Wanyan Liang’s ambition so the tomb he built for himself is not in Heling mausoleum. Not many people know about that.”
Earth Dragon nods his head.
Seeing Gao Ge’s confused facial expression, Earth Dragon seems to have known what he wants to ask and directly explains, “Wanyan Liang was also the emperor of the Jin Empire. After Wanyan Sheng died, Wanyan Liang just killed all his descendants.”
Gao Ge takes a tumble.
Since Earth Dragon knows this matter, it must be true.
Therefore, it makes sense that Wanyan Sheng made preparations beforehand.
However, why did Wanyan Sheng bury his body under the sea?
Is it because he was worried that others would desecrate his body?
Or did he have another ulterior motive?
After pondering for a while, Gao Ge thinks of the Ghost Sect.
If that is the Ghost Sect’s idea, there may be some unknown secret.
“Here we are,” Lu Yanran suddenly says, “It’s down there.”
Gao Ge takes a look at Lu Yanran and asks, “Can you go down there?”
“Yes,” Lu Yanran says, “I’ve been down there for so many years. You tell me...”
Gao Ge grins and then jumps into the sea with Earth Dragon, followed by Lu Yanran.
The water pressure under the sea is unbearable for ordinary people but Gao Ge and Earth Dragon are cultivators at the realm of Master. Therefore, the so-called water pressure is not a big deal for them. As long as they protect themselves with aura, they can go deep into the sea. They can stay under the sea for several hours, or even longer.
As to what they can find, they can only count on luck.
No one can be sure of that.
The deeper they go, the darker it will be.
Gao Ge and Earth Dragon both take out a glare flashlight. Besides, they also inject the aura into their eyes, the visibility is much improved.
Astonishingly, Gao Ge and Earth Dragon find that there are some coffins under the sea.
Lu Yanran is next to Gao Ge and can also speak.
“These coffins belong to the soldiers of the Song Dynasty,” Lu Yanran says, “They must be the subordinates of General Zhu.”
Gao Ge nods.
General Zhu...
Gao Ge doesn’t know him. Neither does Earth Dragon.
However, Gao Ge is clear that General Zhu must know much more than Lu Yanran.
After all, Lu Yanran used to be a maid of Lord Protector’s mansion only. What can she know?
He is a bit curious only. If this is really the tomb of the emperor of the Jin Empire, why are there the soldiers of the Song Dynasty here?
This is...so unreasonable!
They stay under the sea for two hours or so. Gao Ge pats Earth Dragon and then they swim back together.
Having been back on the yacht, Gao Ge gasps and throws a bottle of water to Earth Dragon. He also opens one for himself.
During the two hours under the sea, they find nothing but several coffins.
Remarkably, the coffins are all red. They also carry heavy Yin Qi, which is why they don’t float on the water surface.
“Supposedly, these coffins are not the ones in the tomb,” Earth Dragon says, “If we want to find the tomb, we still need to find a suitable entrance.”
Gao Ge nods.
What Earth Dragon said is what Gao Ge needs to think about now.
“Let’s go back first,” Gao Ge says.
“What?” Earth Dragon feels quite surprised, “We haven’t found the tomb yet.”
“We haven’t indeed but we still find a formation down there. Yet, I’m not sure whether it is the formation of the Ghost Sect,” Gao Ge says.
Gao Ge has learned a lot about formation from Master Guanshan, which Earth Dragon also knows. Since Gao Ge has said so, it means that he must have found something so he has no problems at all.
...
In the Ghost Sect.
Meng Jing is waiting.
She can set off at midnight.
However, to her astonishment, the old woman comes to find her.
Seeing the old woman, Meng Jing feels shocked and wonders whether the incident in Immortal Burying Valley has been found. On second thought, it is not possible. After all, there is no Qi of the green phoenix left in Immortal Burying Valley. Even the old woman cannot know it.
Besides, many disciples of the Ghost Sect believe that the thunderclouds landed and eradicated the Qi of the Ghost Emperor.
After all, there is no other explanation than that.
This is the only reason to explain why the thunderbolts of the Immortal Burying Valley and the Ghost Emperor’s Qi disappeared at the same time.
“Granny, why are you here?” Meng Jing stands up and pours a glass of water for her. Since they came back to the Ghost Sect, the old woman has rarely come to meet her because she has to deal with a lot of things.
The old woman wears a smile. After sitting down, she looks at Meng Jing with narrowed eyes.
“Did you go to the Immortal Burying Valley?”
