Chapter 80 Top Secret

Because Changle Palace has absorbed morning fog and sunset in the cemetery for a long time, although the building is gorgeous, it gives people a sense of gloomy atmosphere. Several tombkeepers of different ages in the palace gate were cleaning the courtyard. Seeing outsiders coming, they went forward and asked with a smile, "Here we go!" In a trance, Su Wu Niang actually felt that this was not like a cemetery, but the receptionist in the hotel lobby said in unison, "Welcome!"

"Yes!" After Su Wuniang finished speaking, she felt that her answer was even more wrong - why did she look like a regular visitor here? She looked at several gravekeepers and asked, "Why, do you often come here?"

These people looked down at her, and swept the floor like nothing happened, and pulled the weeds! I didn't hear Su Wu Niang's question at all!

"This group of people is so strange!" Su Wuniang muttered in her heart, "However, they just need to guard the cemetery, and don't have to ask too much from them!" She swaggered into the main hall of Changle Palace and saw all kinds of exotic fruits on the table, which was just hungry and thirsty, so she picked up a fruit and nibbled at it.

"Bold!" An old man with black hair appeared in front of him.

"Wow, you want to scare people to death!" Su Wuniang was so scared that she threw the fruit on the ground!

"You dare to eat the tribute from the underworld! You have lived enough!" The old man scolded angrily.

After settling down, Su Wuniang carefully distinguished that this person is the only living person mentioned by the woodcutter? It's just that this skin color is praised by him, which is obviously the same color as the iron pot. This gloomy appearance, coupled with the fact that he appeared beside him without movement, she felt that the old man was more like a living dead than the people outside!

"What's the big deal with a fruit? I'll go down the mountain tomorrow to carry you a basket!" Su Wuniang picked up her hand disapprovingly and raised her chin and said!

"Tomorrow?! Do you think you can live until tomorrow?! You go down the mountain now!" The old man roared.

"downhill?! It's almost dark. I'm a weak woman, and I haven't been eaten by wolves before the foot of the mountain!"

"Get out of here!" The old man lowered his voice, but his tone was still harsh.

"You are old, do you have a little charity? Why are you so fierce to me?" Instead, Su Wu Niang shouted loudly.

"I'm asking you to go out and come in again!" The old man said, and his tone was a little warmer.

"Go out...come in again?" Su Wuniang was very puzzled.

"Well, you go out and come in again, and everything will be understood?" The old man nodded and said.

Su Wuniang looked out suspiciously step by step and said, "You promise that I will go out and let me in?" Don't let anyone close the door!"

Anyway, let's enter the door again. What's the big deal!

Su Wuniang exited the door and walked in with her hands swaying behind her back - at this time, there was a scene that she could never have imagined: the gravekeepers who were cleaning the courtyard, like the first time they entered the door, smiled and asked, "Coming!"

All this is like a rehearsed movie. Those people looked at Su Wu Niang all over their bodies. At this time, Su Wu Niang was so scared that her blood rushed straight into her head and made her temples jump. She really wanted to shout, "Ghost!" And she was afraid of bump into them, so she had to wait for them to finish looking at her and return. When he was working, he ran to the white-haired old man. At this time, she felt that the white-haired old man was a little warmer than the people in the yard!

She pulled up the old man's sleeve tremblingly and pointed to the person outside and said, "Old man, is this... a ghost?"

The old man shook his head and said, "They are not human or ghosts, they are just walking dead!" These people are all from nearby villages. Their spirits have already soared, leaving their relatives who are too attached to the world. Before the rise, those spirits are afraid that their relatives will miss them too much and leave their bodies as a comfort! Their relatives will go up the mountain to look at them in a few days and slowly forget, or if their relatives also die, these people will be grounded in peace! Although they don't have a soul, they will do something mechanically!"

"There are such things in the world!" Su Wuniang stared with frightened eyes and asked, "Then if you become a walking corpse because you miss your relatives and imitate these gravekeepers, won't it be a big mess that day?"

"The spirit of King Ning Xian (the first generation of King Ning) is the person in charge of this life and death record. All those with exceptions are also concentrated in this Changle Palace and become tomb guards! Therefore, this will not happen as you said! However, wandering evil spirits can also hurt living people! If I hadn't bumped into you, you would have seen it after dark!"

"Why did you... tell me this?! Isn't it impossible to leak?! Aren't you afraid that I will go down the mountain and say this?" Su Wuniang asked suspiciously. She was really worried that she would die if she knew the secret, just like in the ghost story.

Unexpectedly, the old man handed Su Wu Niang a note and said, "This just fell out of your sleeve!" Su Wu Niang looked at the map. She guessed that it might have fallen when she held her arm just now. The old man's tone became gentle from that moment - she thought that her momentum had overwhelmed him!

She looked at the old man and knew that he must have something to say.

"This map is from the Ning Palace to the cemetery. Did the people of the Palace send you here?" The old man asked.

"Since the old man can take charge of this palace for King Ning, it means that you are not an outsider, and I won't beat around the bush. Let's just say it directly - Lou Suzhen has a childhood friend named Wang Shouren, who was a guest in the Ning Palace. After a short nap at noon, she woke up and drew this picture! And let me find it here according to the map!" Su Wuniang said it directly.

"What about others?" The old man asked seriously.

"Also in the Ning Palace, he found that Zhu Chenhao (the fifth grandson of King Ning) secretly built a military treasury in the underground palace, and Zhu Chenhao acted strangely. He usually slept heavily during the day and seemed to be possessed at night and stayed up all night. Recently, the old man of the whole royal palace has died and disappeared, which is very puzzling - he stayed here to figure out this series of questions! However, he has been doing things in the divine way. After sleeping, he drew this picture. That's all I know!"

The old man nodded: "It seems that King Ningkang has given him a dream! Then I must have had the same dream as this prince."

Lou Suzhen took the map and looked at Wang Shouren's last instruction: "The secret organ of the underground palace of King Ning's mansion." Su Wuniang didn't understand what he wanted to say at all, so she had to point it to the old man: "There is another instruction here. Do you know what it means?"

The old man said, "I've seen it!" This gentleman seems to be an intelligent person!"

Su Wuniang did not deny this at all, but she really didn't understand why the old man looked more familiar with Wang Shouren than her, so she asked, "How can the old man see it?"

"First of all, he is just a guest in the mansion. After staying for a few days, he can guess that there is an underground palace under the mansion, which is amazing! Secondly, he knew that this underground palace was built by Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, because if it was built by Zhu Chenhao, there must be mountains of earth and stones to be transported out. In addition, the gravekeepers are the most trusted domestic slaves of Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, which has been passed down from generation to generation, and I am the most likely to know this secret organ! These princes have guessed, that's why I asked you to come to me! It seems that he wants to visit the underground palace!" The old man came one by one.

Su Wuniang scratched her scalp: "Is this King Ning Xian tired or not? A underground palace is built under the mansion, and a tomb group is built under the tomb!"

The old man said, "This is different! The underground palace of the mansion is to protect the descendants of King Ning. In case another generation of Zhu Di, the emperor of Chengzu, who 'doesn't allow others to snoo on the side of the couch, there is a hiding place!"

Su Wuniang nodded: "That's true! That tomb is even more generous. Which emperor doesn't have an imperial mausoleum!" Su Wuniang realized that the topic was far away: "Hey, do you have any drawings of the secret organ?"

The old man shook his head: "I just know about it, but I don't have the drawings!"

"Hey, I haven't been in your hands for a long time! It's a waste of feelings!" Su Wuniang complained in a low voice.

"What are you talking about?" The old man asked.

"I didn't say anything!" Su Wu Niang said.

"I was going to tell you to find someone, but I won't mention it if you say so!" The old man is more serious.

Su Wuniang hurriedly coaxed, "Okay, okay, it's my fault!" I'll bring you a car of delicious food tomorrow! Tell me quickly!"

The old man sighed and said, "Before King Ningkang, I handed this drawing to the most trusted Princess Ning in the house!"

"What?! In the hands of Lou Suzhen?!" Su Wuniang sighed: "This is really giving up near and seeking far!"

The old man looked at her eagerness and said, "That drawing alone is not enough!" He turned around and took out a sword from the back of the palace and said, "The ruby on this sword is the key to the underground palace!" Zhu Chenhao knew the exit and entrance of the underground palace as the heir of King Ning. In order to ensure safety, he could only enter from another top-secret secret channel, which was also in the princess's bedroom.

Su Wuniang said, "It seems that King Ningkang attaches great importance to this daughter-in-law! It's even more important than your own son!"

The old man said, "You don't understand this! Men may have blinded their family affection in order to usurp the throne, and even ignore their own lives, while women will pay attention to the prosperity and peace of their children and grandchildren. Therefore, King Ningkang gave this second secret drawing to Princess Ning. With this secret drawing, the exit and entrance can be sealed at any time. And this second secret road doesn't even know Zhu Chenhao!"

Su Wu Niang said, "That is to say, the underground palace has two secret channels and two drawings?"

The old man said, "That's right!"

Su Wuniang shook her head: "The royal palace is really too complicated!"

The old man sighed: "Since ancient times, the royal palace is as deep as the sea!"

Su Wuniang hung the sword on her body and was ready to leave. "Well, okay, thank you!" She pointed to the moon outside the door and said, "The person who picked me up is coming soon!"

This time, the old man was more surprised. At this time, there was a bright light in the yard, and then a girl Tingting landed on the ground. She ran in and said, "Wu Niang, the master ordered me to pick you up!"

Looking at the stunned old man, Su Wuniang finally found some psychological compensation - "He thought he could be psychic, and I can still communicate with immortals. Envy it!" With that, she followed Yueyue on a thousand-mile horse and flew out of the palace.
