Zuo Junmo smiled lightly and said: "I am discussing with Feng Tang the arrangements for going to search for the tomb tomorrow."

Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, glanced at the full moon above her head, and joked: "On a clear moonlit night, I thought you were going to say something arty, but I didn't expect you were actually talking about this, hehe..."

Zuo Junmo smiled, "Elegant or vulgar, each has its own merits, it just depends on the perspective and perspective of the person looking at things."

Luo Fengtang nodded: "Brother Zuo is right. I, Luo Fengtang, am just a rough guy. I don't know anything about poems and songs. I can only wield a sword, but in the light and shadow of the sword, I think there is something special about it."

Zuo Junmo nodded and agreed with Luo Fengtang's words.

"Me too, compared to those romantic things, I prefer to plunge into my warehouse and tinker with mechanism springs and other work all day long, even if I forget to eat and sleep," he said.

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, then I am also a person who is not particular about it. I like doing business, and I like to lie on the mountain of gold and silver and count the coins. The clattering sound is more beautiful than a singer singing."

The three of them looked at each other and laughed.

After laughing, the two of them continued to discuss tomorrow's itinerary. Yang Ruoqing did not interrupt, sitting aside and listening carefully...

"After you left in the first month, I gathered people who knew water and were good at diving into the underground river again. I carefully checked at the entrance of the underground palace and the vicinity to make sure that there was nothing like what Qing'er mentioned in the water.

A big strange fish without eyes, and then took the waterwheel I had been thinking about over the past two years to get there."

"It took nearly a month of hard work to finally pump out all the water in that section of the underground river, and the upper reaches were also blocked."

"The water level at the entrance to the tomb is probably so deep right now, it can't be pumped anymore..."

Zuo Junmo raised his hand and made a gesture.

Yang Ruoqing looked at it, and it was about her waist.

"It's a big project to block a section of the river on the ground and drain the water in the middle section, let alone the underground river? Brother Zuo is really awesome, I admire you!" Yang Ruoqing said to Zuo Jun.

Thumbs up, with sincere admiration on his face.

Although they all know how to dive, they always feel uneasy when doing things in the water, and they always feel that there are unknown dangers under the water.

And because of the problem of water flow and pressure, it is even more difficult to open the stone door under the water.

Now Zuo Junmo has dug out all the water in that section, and a large section of the stone door has been exposed. This is much more convenient.

"This project is too large and requires skills. If it weren't for Brother Zuo, anyone else would probably be helpless. It's really admirable!" Luo Fengtang also praised sincerely.

Zuo Junmo's face turned red as he was praised by the two men in turn.

He took a sip of the tea in front of him and said: "Although I have removed the obstruction to the entrance, water has been seeping from the upstream spring. In the past few days, the water level at the stone door of the tomb has been slowly rising. With this

The changes in the season may not last for a few days before breaking through the obstacles I set, so we must go down as soon as possible and get out as soon as possible."

Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang both nodded: "We'll leave early tomorrow morning!"

Yang Ruoqing asked Zuo Junmo again: "Brother Zuo, have you found the mechanism to open the stone gate?"

Zuo Junmo shook his head: "I have thought about it, but so far I have found nothing."

"That kind of stone door should be difficult to open with brute force." Luo Fengtang said. He had already dived down to the bottom last time, and he was the first to discover the stone door.

Zuo Junmo said: "When the time comes, we will look for the mechanism first. If we can't find it, we will use explosives."

He is a descendant of the Mo family. It would be really embarrassing if he really couldn't find the switch button and had to use explosives to open the door.

However, in order to go in and find out what's going on, I have to lose my reputation.

"By the way, Brother Zuo, what is the origin of that ancient tomb hidden under the underground river in the cave? Do you locals have any rumors about it?"

Anyway, there was nothing wrong with admiring the moon tonight. Yang Ruoqing held her chin with one hand and asked curiously.

Because in every place, there are some things that have been handed down locally.

For example, in Mianniu Mountain, there is an inconspicuous tomb near Xiangjiazhuang. Many people of the older generation say that it is the emperor's tomb.

Yang Ruoqing would not even believe that there would be an emperor buried in such a dirt slope made of rubble!

But the older generation said so, and the children were told not to pass by the emperor's tomb when they were herding cattle, as they would be disturbed.

Yang Ruoqing sometimes thought about how one day she would get interested and dig up the emperor's tomb to take a look.

Zuo Junmo's voice sounded, pulling Yang Ruoqing back from her thoughts.

"The tomb hidden under the underground river. Apart from a few of us, a few of my brothers who help pump water know about it. But although everyone is born and raised here, they have never heard of it.

Related rumors." He talked.

Yang Ruoqing was slightly disappointed. Zuo Junmo's next words made her eyes light up again.

"However, I saw such a record in the county annals of Huguang County, which may be related to the ancient tomb."

"What record?" Yang Ruoqing asked quickly.

Zuo Junmo thought about it carefully and said: "According to the records of Huguang County, before the Da Qi Dynasty, our Huguang County and even Wanghai County belonged to a small country called 'Yue'."

"Is that tomb under the underground river from the Moon Kingdom period?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.

Zuo Junmo shook his head: "No, that tomb already existed during the Yue Kingdom. There were rumors in the Yue Kingdom at that time that the tomb was an ancient tomb passed down from the dynasty before the Yue Kingdom. It is said that there were burials in that ancient tomb.

He was a very remarkable person at that time. There are only two sentences mentioned in the county annals, but the location is unknown. It only mentions water, but the most indispensable thing in Huguang County is water."

"The Moon Kingdom before Da Qi?" Luo Fengtang pondered.

"From the founding of Daqi to Qi Xingyun's current generation of emperors, it has gone through three generations and nearly a hundred years of foundation. Before Daqi, the continent was said to be divided. In the north, there were not only Liao Kingdom, but also Jin Kingdom, Yuan Kingdom, and the central part occupied

In the Central Plains, there are Qi State, Lu State, Yue State and Chu State to the south, and Shu State to the west. A number of small countries in southern Yunnan were in chaos, and the heroes were divided. Finally, the Tuoba clan of Daliao in the north annexed other small countries nearby.

, established today's Daliao, the Qi family in the central part surrendered the Yue Kingdom, Chu Kingdom, etc., Qi Xingyun's imperial grandfather established Daqi, and the same was true in the west! And this chaos and melee continued until the two great powers of the north and the south emerged, and there were many conflicts in the middle.

century!"

"Since that tomb existed before the Moon Kingdom, it has been at least two hundred years, so it is indeed very old!" Luo Fengtang said.

Yang Ruoqing looked at him in shock.

Not only was I shocked by his profound knowledge in history, but I was even more shocked that he, who was usually taciturn and cherished words like gold, actually said such a long sentence in one breath tonight.

By the way, the small countries that fought back and forth before Da Qi he mentioned sound somewhat similar to the situation of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms recorded in the history textbooks of previous lives.
