Shrouded in suspicion

  As soon as he heard this, Hai Chen, Feng Le Tian and Peng Jian Jun quickly retreated, but Liao Dongfeng held the ghost mask lantern in his palm, carefully observing its every move. He saw that the bronze green color on its body slowly faded away, replaced by a blood-red exterior. The pure white aura around it suddenly turned black, followed by an ear-piercing scream.

  At that moment, countless lights and shadows rushed in from all directions from the depths of darkness. These lights and shadows were the same as those seen in the hospital before, and Liao Dongfeng knew they were the virtual souls of people. However, he did not expect this space to have so many lonely ghosts and wild devils.

  His mind suddenly flashed with many images: cruel and ruthless wars, ordinary life's trivialities, officialdom's intrigue and struggle, and more of those strange text symbols. The image finally stopped at a scene where 8 young people in white robes were crying around an old man's corpse. One of them opened the old man's skull, took out part of his brain, and placed it in a round transparent container. Then, the 8 young people put the container into a copper lantern, which was the ghost-faced lamp Lu Ban lock. Afterward, the 8 people knelt down together, shouting out a title "Giant".

  Liao Dongfeng was like waking up from a nightmare again, his breathing was very rapid, and his face was extremely pale. Hai Chen and others saw the ghost mask lantern restored to its original state, and then heard Peng Jianjun ask in a hurry: "Dongzi, you just mentioned Julizi, what is Julizi? Is it a person?"

  "As far as I know, the Giant is the leader of the Mechanical Clan. The original Lu Ban was the first Giant of the Mechanical Clan, and later Mozi, Xu Fu, Ge Nie, Yan Dan and others have all inherited the title of Giant. Unfortunately, their actions were not up to the standards of their ancestors, which led to internal strife within the Mechanical Clan, and also surrounded the Mohist mechanical devices, wooden and stone roads, bronze mouths, and asked about Gongshu's technical disputes that lasted for thousands of years, until the Mechanical Clan suddenly disappeared from this world."

  After hearing Feng Le Tian's explanation, Hai Chen and Peng Jian Jun both stared blankly at Liao Dong Feng. In fact, they wanted to know which family of Qigong masters Liao Dong Feng was from. At this time, however, Feng Le Tian was thinking about what Yu Lao had said, with the two most important words being: arch-nemesis.

  The atmosphere on the scene had been silent for half an hour, and it wasn't until then that Liao Dongfeng raised his head to look at the battered city wall. Suddenly, he asked in doubt: "Right, we've come over, where are the people of Qin?"

  Upon hearing the question, everyone also hastened to tidy up their equipment and carefully entered the miniature Xiangyang City to look for Qin.

  In the miniature Xianyang City, buildings and streets are no less than the real Xianyang City. Everything that should be there is present, whether it's the street surface or the civilian houses, all exuding the atmosphere of the once prosperous Qin imperial capital. On the streets, there are various types of pottery figurines, with people from all walks of life, all vividly depicted. Even the wrinkles on the clothes of passersby are clearly carved, showing the exquisite craftsmanship and dedication of ancient artisans.

  Behind the stone gate, there were two shattered pottery figurines, which were the "masterpieces" left behind by Qin when he suddenly appeared earlier. At this time, Liao Dongfeng squatted down to carefully examine the interior of the pottery figurines and discovered that there was a big story inside these two pottery figurines. To put it bluntly, the human figures in these two pottery figurines were actually made using real human bodies as models. This discovery shocked everyone, and it's not hard to imagine that Qin must have been greatly shocked when he saw this fact, so his disappearance also had a reason.

  Having seen all this, Liao Dongfeng stood up and cursed: "Cruel and inhuman, losing all conscience, the Great Qin Empire is doomed to decline."

  After that, everyone continued to move forward, and the number of pottery figurines they saw along the way exceeded one hundred. Although they looked no different from ordinary sculptures on the surface, the bloodiness inside them made anyone's heart palpitate. Feng Le Tian simply stopped looking at the pottery figurines beside him and stared intently at the Ghost Chart in his hand. Before long, he said: "No wonder our ancestors invented this Ghost Chart. The Ghost Chart is good at capturing the aura of vengeful spirits. Using it to explore a tomb of this scale is indeed most appropriate. Right, the underground palace is just ahead. Let's speed up!"

  "Wait a minute, something doesn't feel right."

  Everyone stopped and waited for his explanation as Liao Dongfeng expressed his doubts.

  Liao Dongfeng looked around in a circle, finally touched the ground with his hand and said: "The underground palace has been sealed for thousands of years, it shouldn't be so clean. But look at the cleanliness of this street, you can tell that someone sweeps it regularly. Such a large city is swept so clean, without hundreds of people working together, it's impossible to do."
