Huangshadao City fell into silence, but not everyone fell asleep.

The official office of Huangsha Road was brightly lit, and the officials and examiners of the Imperial College in a hall seemed to be interrupted and the atmosphere was a bit stagnant.

"Mr. Song, each examiner has his own determination in his mind, which is not very convenient to be specific," said an official.

Song Yuan snorted and said, "That means that if you want to order whoever you have a higher score, please order whoever you want?"

"This is the judgment of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but there are not rules to follow. If it is good, everyone can see it, so don't worry about anything unfair." said an examiner.

Song Yuan laughed, reached out and patted the examiner on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I have anything to worry about. You guys selected by Xiangye Wang are the most powerful... Then I'll sleep peacefully."

Everyone politely gave it to him, and watched Song Yuan walk out, and immediately stood up straight.

"I don't know anything and I want to listen to anything." An official shook his sleeves and said contemptuously.

Another official smiled indifferently: "Why can a gentleman let him interfere? He thought too much about supervision." He greeted the other people in the hall with a smile, "Please sit down, let's discuss tomorrow's Leke..."

There were noisy words in the hall and laughter sounded from time to time.

Song Yuan, who was walking alone in the corridor, looked a little lonely. When he stepped into his room, several men greeted him.

"Sir, tonight is about to start. Do you want to go and have a look?" the leader whispered.

Song Yuan yawned and said, "It's not too late to go and see it after opening it... No hurry." He waved his hand, "I'll notify me if there is any news."

Several men bowed their heads and said yes.

The Huangshadao City in the night looked like a glass cup, with the light inside being bright and covered by a city wall. In contrast, the thick ink was getting darker around it. The hustle and bustle of the Queen's Mausoleum in the distance had already dissipated, and the tall monument was isolated in the night.

A rustling sound rang on the ground, and a scorpion moved on it. On the quiet sandy land was its free hunting ground. It seemed to climb up a reed grass intentionally or unintentionally. The reed grass trembled, as if it was afraid of this insect that had never been seen before.

The scorpion also became stiff, as if surprised why the water-loving reeds emerged on this ground that had burned fire and was not growing...

The next moment, the cold light fell from the sky, and with a thud, pierced into the ground. The originally flat ground trembled violently and suddenly raised a piece of bulge... At the same time, cold light flashed around, and the sound of the sword stabbing into the ground was one after another... The earth also began to resist. The sand was lifted up, and the people below jumped up, but before it made a sound, they were tied to their necks by ropes. Then the swords on all sides pierced into his body. Before they stood firm, they fell again. The flying sand fell down, and one foot also stepped on his body. It seemed to step on the mud and water, accompanied by the sound, the black shadow flew like a moth in the night.

All this happened in a moment, and it started and ended in an instant... Someone reached out to pinch a scorpion crawling around on the ground.

"...This is the first secret post..." Du said.

Xue Qing squatted down and stretched out his hand to push away the loose sand and saw the dead body exposed inside. The reed grass used for breathing was still in her mouth. The blood of the throat that was penetrated with a sword was still raking... Xue Qing grabbed a handful of sand and covered it and stood up.

"These are all Lord Du." She said, looking at the dark shadows floating in the dark night, there were about 17 or 18 people at a glance. This movement showed that these people were extraordinary.

Du said: "It's His Majesty the Emperor." He looked at Xue Qing correcting.

Xue Qing nodded and said, "This Queen's Tomb is designed to wait for us to come. Are we really going to break in like this?"

Du said: "If they want to lure us, they will inevitably reveal some flaws. Isn't this our chance... As for the hunters waiting for open nets, who said that prey cannot backfire? What we have to do today is eat the bait."

......

......

Behind the tall monument is a tall round hill. Dahuangya said that the soil near the Yellow Sand Road was burnt and dissipated when the wind blew. It was naturally not formed naturally in the local area, but was made up of sand and soil transported from other places. From a distance, it was a mound, but when you approach, you could see it was piled up by huge rocks, so the bare grass on it does not grow, let alone trees.

The round hill is sealed by huge rocks and seems extremely strong, but since it was built by humans, people can naturally open it. At this time, a trace of light appeared at the foot of the round hill, and there was a huge rock shattering like an eggshell.

A tingling sound came from it, and the surrounding guards stood and looked around vigilantly.

The armor used by the inner guards was removed and piled up on the side. A group of old and young men were busy with shirtlessness. They were fiddling with various tools in their hands and aimed at a huge rock, as if they were going to move the huge rock away.

The boulder was made of natural without any gaps, and was carved with flames and phoenixes.

Several men in black robes stood aside and looked at each other. A little curiosity and awe flashed in their eyes under the torches.

"Can this really be turned on?" A murmur, and as soon as he finished speaking, a low cheer came from the busy men.

“It’s open.”

With this cheer, several men in black robe did not step forward but hurriedly retreated. The ground began to vibrate, and the surrounding sand and soil fell down. The huge rocks in front of them cracked a gap with the creaking sound. After a while, they returned to peace... There was no collapse or any hidden weapon bows and arrows shot out.

The men who were hiding behind stood up and watched the phoenix in the flames on the huge rock split into two halves.

"It can actually be opened," they said.

An old craftsman stepped forward and said respectfully: "Since it is someone who lets it close, it will definitely be able to open it again... Don't worry, we open it according to its original settings and will not touch the mechanism."

The men in black robe looked at each other and couldn't wait to walk towards the stone gate. Two craftsmen hurriedly raised the torch to light it first. There was a passage behind the stone gate. In the dark night, the stone wall was shining with faint light.

"How..." a man said.

"You can only enter the gate of the underground palace from here." Another man replied, looking at the huge rock beside him, "This is just a fake gate."

"It took such a long time for a fake door." The previous man said, "then it will be even harder next."

The man smiled and said, "Satisfied, I tried to enter the underground palace when I hit the ground, but it took several days and nights to open a road instead of burying everyone underground."

This man had heard about the past, and looked at the faint passage in front of him again and said, "So this time, I decided to enter the underground palace from the main road."

How could the craftsmen beside him lower their heads humbly and dare not express their thoughts.

"Okay, let's go."

Hearing an order, the craftsmen hurriedly packed up their tools. Two men holding torches stood up to make way. The torches in their hands shook and shone on the stone door. The flame patterns carved on them seemed to jump and shake, as if they were really burning... The heat spread out in the cave instantly.

"It's here!" a craftsman suddenly shouted, pointing at the stone gate with a look of fear.

Everyone looked at it in shock and saw only the flames of the stone gate rising, and then the golden light in front of them flew open and screamed in their ears.

The guards standing outside the door immediately turned around and ran in. The moment they stepped in, there was a loud bang, and the fire inside exploded, and the sand and stones rolled around, swallowing everyone in an instant. Then everything returned to peace, and the fire disappeared, only the rocks rolling and dispersing.

.....

....

Xue Qing stroked the ground with his hands feeling the trembling.
