Chapter Thirteen Who Will Come

  Zhao Feiyu and Kong Yī had already realized something was amiss, when a golden Buddha statue suddenly appeared from behind Kong Yī. The Buddha statue pressed its palm against Zhao Kuo's head, who tried to escape but was firmly under my control! Zhao Feiyu wasn't idle either, he had stuck countless talismans on Zhao Kuo's horse, and with one glance I recognized them as Dispelling Hatred Talismans.

  The three of us took on Zhao Kuang together. I only felt that my energy was being consumed very quickly, and I tightly controlled Zhao Kuang, refusing to let him leave.

  "When we were both at a stalemate, a voice suddenly appeared: 'Let go of each other!'"

  My first reaction was that this voice belonged to Mu Zhongyan.

  Mu Rong walked here with a flashlight, and saw that it was me, Zhao Feiyu and Kong Yiren fighting against Zhao Kuang. He didn't care about so many people, he pushed Zhao Feiyu away with one hand, and even ignored the possibility of being counterattacked by Kong Yiren, and broke Kong Yiren's attack.

  When Mu Rong Xing saw that I was still forcibly controlling Zhao Kuang's consciousness, Mu Rong Xing roared at me: Break it off for me!

  "I want to know where my husband and child are!" I gritted my teeth and said word by word.

  "You... I'll tell you! You're breaking up with me now!" Mu Rong Xuan obviously didn't expect me to say that.

  "Damn it!" Without the help of Kong Yi and Zhao Feiyu, Zhao Kuang's powers were slowly recovering. As he let out a furious roar, I could feel that I was no longer able to control him...

  Zhao Kuang was furious and drew his sword, just as he was about to strike again, Mu Rong Xing pushed me to one side.

  I bumped into the wall of the corridor and lost consciousness for a while.

  When I woke up, I found myself in a tomb. Mu Rong and the others were all still there. I shook my head and asked: How long have I been unconscious?

  "It's just ten minutes." Zhao Feiyu handed me a bottle of water and replied calmly.

  I just faintly said "oh", and didn't speak again.

  After a long while, Mu Rong Xian slowly spoke up: "Has Huang Shi Pu found you?"

  "Yes." I said without hesitation.

  Upon hearing this, Mu Rong's face turned somewhat unsightly, and he continued to ask: What did he say to you?

  "He told me some things."

  At this point, Mu Rong Xing also stopped asking questions. Zhao Fei Yu stood up tactfully and was about to walk outside when I suddenly said: "Qīnzi, won't you be afraid going out alone for a while?"

  Dong Qizhi let out a shocked "ah", but she quickly reacted and smiled, saying: It's okay.

  I pulled out a mask from my backpack and handed it to Qingzi, saying with a fake smile: "Baiji will accompany you. It's okay."

  Dong Qiz smiled and continued on, it was only then that I discovered Mu Rong Xing had found a tomb chamber with another stone gate that could be pushed open 360 degrees. Zhao Fei Yu helped Dong Qizi push the gate open, then closed it again.

  "Go on, tell me what's going on." Mu Rong Xing looked at me with a very serious tone.

  "Coming down from Heizhugou, I'm afraid the only ones still alive are probably just us four?" I raised my head and looked at the three of them, asking very seriously.

  For a moment, everyone stopped talking.

  It was a long time before Zhao Feiyu slowly spoke up: It's been five years, isn't it over yet?

  Kong Yiji sang a Buddhist mantra and never said another word again.

  I coughed twice, pretending to be nonchalant, and said: "Huang Shi-bo's condition for me was simple. Hei Zhu Gou must have an inside story that none of us know about. He said he could tell me the inside story in exchange for something, naturally it would be my life. However, from my conversation with Zhao Kuo just now, he called me a thief. It seems that my resurrection is not easy after all."

  When I said that, I subconsciously looked at Mu Rong Xing. I always feel that my rebirth has a deep connection with him, and he saved me from Zhao Gou's hands, which is not an easy task either. According to his conversation with Huang Shi Bu, he only feels guilty towards me, but is it really just guilt?

  "Do you really think that the Changping War was just about Qin wanting to occupy Zhao?" Mu Rong Xing suddenly spoke up.

  I, Zhao Feiyu and Kong Yī all looked at Mu Rong Xing with a confused expression, unsure what he meant by his words.

  "Qin Shi Huang unified the six states, wasn't it just for the sake of those two words 'power'?" I looked at Mu Rong Xing, somewhat perplexed by his words.

  "Besides power, there's something else that makes people fascinated with this." Mu Rongyan gazed at the three of us with a meaningful and mysterious tone.

  The three of us fell into contemplation, pondering Mu Rong's words. Besides power, what else can be more captivating?

  Just when we didn't expect it, Kong raised an eyebrow and said faintly: Longevity. Isn't that what Qin Shi Huang has always wanted? Immortality.

  It's nothing but let me and Zhao Feiyu understand each other a little better.

  "That's right, it's Changsheng. This place is also where Fuzi exists. Before Qin Shi Huang unified the six states, there were already rumors among the Taoist priests that an elixir of immortality had appeared. However, in the territory of Qin, nothing existed. Qin Shi Huang unified the six states for two reasons: one was for power, and the other was for eternal life. Fuzi likes to grow in cold places, and its growth is not simple. To put it bluntly, it's something that can only grow on dead bones. The tomb below is also a place where Qin Shi Huang searched for Fuzi. Two thousand years ago, this place was one of the places where Fuzi grew. He ordered the live burial of 400,000 people from Zhao State, just to make Fuzi grow over a larger area. But what Qin Shi Huang didn't expect was Zhao Kuo."

  Meng Tian's words make me more and more confused. When did the Changping War become such a complicated matter? And Zhao Kuo is not even considered a meritorious minister?

  "Zhao Kuo's family had always been gatekeepers. Zhao Kuo was indeed only good at talking on paper, but he attached great importance to Changping. At that time, the State of Qin was afraid of the State of Zhao, so they sent someone to spread rumors in the State of Zhao, saying that the Qin army was afraid of Zhao Kuo leading the troops. Originally, Zhao Kuo didn't have to go to the battlefield, but when he learned that the location was Changping, Zhao Kuo can be said to have agreed without any hesitation. What the State of Qin valued was the strategic location of Changping. The State of Zhao was just an accessory."

  After listening to Mu Rong Xing's explanation, I felt that my three views were subverted. Looking at Kong Yat and Zhao Fei Yu's appearance, it seemed to be about the same.

  "What I'm talking about is Heizhugou, you'd better keep a distance from me." I said to Mu Rong Xing with some dissatisfaction.

  "Isn't it obvious? You think Hei Zhu Gou and here have no connection?" Mu Rong Xing looked at me and asked back. "You really think the Gui Lou Pai came here without any prior plan?"

  "What conspiracy? What conspiracy?" Zhao Feiyu heard this and furrowed his brow.

  Mu Rong pointed to the stone gate and lowered his voice, saying: "Fei Yu, you find that girl and treat her like your own sister. Don't you dare say it's not repaying a debt?"

  Zhao Feiyu cleared his throat and didn't say anything.

  Kong Yizi was constantly fiddling with his Buddhist beads, and I could tell he was extremely anxious. Originally a matter that had been covered up, this time it was forced to be brought out again.

  "Nothing much, as for you, I don't need to say more, right?" Mu Rong Xing looked at Kong Yi, frowning.

  "Amitabha!" Kong Yee sang another Buddhist mantra, but this time it seemed like an escape to me.

  "Let's put the Heizhugou thing aside for now, I want you to find Fu Yin. After I know all the inside information, I will personally take care of Huang Shibo." Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more oppressive, I had to change the subject and said.

  "You killed Huang Shi Bo, it's equivalent to the Ghost Building declaring war on Jiang He. For so many years, the two organizations have been like water and fire, and your actions are undoubtedly igniting the flames of war." Mu Zheng Xing said seriously as he looked at me.

  I toyed with the meteorite in my hand and sneered: What does it have to do with me?

  Mu Rong heard my words and almost stood up in anger. He pointed at me and scolded: "What does it have to do with you? You're the only heartless person in this world! If Jiang He knew that you could still live without a heart, you would definitely be the first one to be studied!"

  "Do you think I can get them close to our bodies?" I glanced at Mu Rong Xing, with a hint of disdain in my tone.

  "Kobayashi, I still don't know how many catties and taels you are? Among the younger generation, you are indeed a outstanding one. But compared to Huang Shibo, your Tao is far inferior." Mu Rong Xing looked at me, his tone couldn't find any hint of joking.

  This sentence of Mu Rong Xing has stimulated my temper, I stood up suddenly and said to Mu Rong Xing: Then I will go kill for you to see.

  Kong Yiyi grabbed me and shook his head at me, saying: Now is not the time for you to hold back your temper. Sit down properly.

  I shook off Kong Yi's hand, and my temper was also rising. Mu Rong Xing looked at me, without any intention of comforting me. He coughed twice and continued: Now go call that girl over and talk about what to do next.

  "You mean we're going to look for Fu Yin?" Zhao Feiyu looked at Mu Rong Xing and asked seriously.

  "Otherwise? Are you saying it's good news that we found it, or should Huang Shi-bo and the others find it instead? If we hold out for a while here, the people from the Ghost Building should arrive soon." Mu Zong-xing said this with an uncontrollable hint of a smile on his face.

  Are the people from Ghost Building almost here? I was a bit confused after hearing this sentence. Mu Rong said that the people from Ghost Building are about to arrive, not Jiang He?

  An idea suddenly popped up in my mind.

  Mu Rong Xing is an undercover agent. Is Gui Lou Pai's undercover agent in Jiang He?

  I raised my head and looked at Mu Rong Xing, asking with an extremely serious tone: When are they coming? Who's coming?

  Mu Rong walked alongside me with a smile and asked in return: Do you think anyone else would come besides her?

  She?

  I thought carefully in my mind, and I also understood that apart from Dai Suoyang, who else would choose to come here. Dai Suoyang and Mu Zhongxing were also old friends, and at this time, only Dai Suoyang came to muddy the waters.
