Chapter 347 The Stone Palace Court
She slowly raised her eyes and stared intently at Huangfu Zique without blinking.
They looked as if they wished their gazes could turn into two sharp blades and shoot the other person straight into their eyes.
That damned Huangfu Zique, so he was able to get to that point with Mu Yunya by using me?
Ha! You just wait, I'll settle things with you properly when we get back to Beijing.
Mu Yunfei didn't react much, having already guessed that the other party must have used some despicable means.
With a blank expression, he brushed a layer of grease onto the grilled meat, his decision almost coinciding with Long Yuan's.
Huangfu Zique awkwardly rubbed his forehead with his fingertips.
I discovered for the first time that this mind-reading ability wasn't a good thing.
When will this disappear? If it continues like this, it's terrifying!
Whether it's for Mu Yunya or for them.
He doesn't need to listen to her feelings anymore; he can just believe whatever she says from now on, okay?
Little Giant Pit, you're a real rip-off!
I'd rather she keep spying on my thoughts.
Yes! If only the other person could hear what I really think, how much trouble would that save me?
"Hehe! Zique always said he wasn't as smart as us, but I think he's quite resourceful!" Fu Tingyu pursed his lips, trying his best to suppress a laugh.
Emperor Tianhuang glanced at everyone without revealing his expression and then continued to slowly cut a small piece of roasted meat with his knife and fork and put it into his mouth.
This feeling of being completely isolated is becoming increasingly unpleasant!
In the past, when encountering such situations, Mu Yunfei would occasionally use lip reading to repeat the information to himself.
When that guy is unwilling to repeat himself, you won't get an answer even if you ask.
"Then I'll eat it myself!" Huangfu Zique ignored Fu Tingyu's sarcasm and nonchalantly picked up the roasted meat to eat with gusto.
He wasn't too discouraged by being rejected by the girl.
You can't eat hot tofu if you're impatient.
The biggest problem now is how to get all of Mu Yunya's brothers to this realm.
This is the key to breaking the deadlock!
"By the way, you said that snake was so powerful, so how did it get all those injuries?"
After a short three-hour rest, everyone picked up their luggage again and headed towards the main hall.
When Fu Tingyu saw that it was Yun Dan who was asking the question, he realized that no matter what, he had wronged her in the past.
He used to think that Yun Dan was just dragging her feet and refusing to break off the engagement.
It wasn't until I talked to Yun Dan on the way to Guanxia Mountain that I learned that she had long intended to break off the engagement.
This misunderstanding arose because their parents and Uncle Yun were determined not to separate them.
So he patiently explained, "Some are caused by animal bites, but most are caused by objects."
They must have encountered danger such as a mudslide while foraging for food in the surrounding area.
Seeing that they were having a lively conversation, Mu Zhen joined in the discussion: "The mural says that other Nantuo pythons forage in the Wanshan Forest, but what about this one?"
Aside from some monkeys, there don't seem to be any large animals in Guanxia Mountain. Does it usually just eat monkeys?
The climate of Guanxia Mountain is not suitable for many animal species to survive.
What does that thing usually eat?
Yun Dan: "There are many small mountains with normal climates around Guanxia Mountain. At the speed of the Nantuo Giant Python, it wouldn't take long to climb over them..."
As they chatted, they unknowingly arrived in front of the palace.
The entire palace was built of stone and a small amount of wood, and it was in serious disrepair, giving it a somewhat dilapidated appearance.
The bodyguards instinctively took up their weapons and pushed the door open.
'Squeak! '
The heavy wooden door slowly opened, and a strong sense of history immediately rushed out.
"Be careful! My goodness, from a distance it looks like a painted stone gate, but I never imagined it was all made of precious Phoebe zhennan wood."
"Historically, there's no record of King Zhou west being this wealthy." A middle-aged woman stroked the wooden door with obvious affection.
Other experts were also worried that the bodyguards might be too rough and damage the timber.
Okay, Mu Zhen admits he's illiterate. He only knows that Phoebe zhennan wood is valuable, but he doesn't know that it can last for thousands of years without decaying.
"So these two doors are also treasures? How much do you think they're worth?" He pulled Yun Dan aside and whispered in her ear.
Should he take one of the doors? And what about those beams? I wonder if they're all made of Phoebe zhennan wood.
Just then, the dwarf fox, who was following behind, tilted his head to look at the experts who were marveling at the wooden door. Before Yun Dan could speak, he scoffed, "Forget about it."
"If you can get this door from them today, I will take your surname from now on."
"Why should I? I also have a share in the distribution rights." Mu Zhen scoffed, then nudged the dwarf fox, winking and asking, "Is it really that expensive?"
"It's not about the money. Take the treasure vaults before, for example. Do you think they care about those mountains of gold and silver? What they care about most are the paintings on the walls."
That almost records the entire life of King Zhou west; this is called protecting historical heritage.
"Don't try to argue with the experts about anything they don't allow you to touch. It's useless. If they say you can't take it, they will never let you take it," the dwarf fox advised the two in a low voice.
Instead of wasting time haggling, why not use that time to choose the right item?
Seeing that the two of them were still looking at the door, he said with a hint of helplessness, "Remember what I said."
Don't even think about fighting over things like the robes worn by King Zhou west, his seals, or anything with writing on them.
If you push them too far, they'll even commit suicide; I know that from experience.
Yun Dan's face immediately darkened, dissatisfied with the other party's suggestion: "What are you saying? The most valuable things in the ancient tomb are those with words on them, so why can't we take them?"
"Are you deliberately trying to deceive us because you've joined the Crown Prince's forces?"
She had just opened a stone box in the treasure vault, which was full of scattered jade slips and bamboo slips. She was ready to remind Mu Yunya to choose that box.
How can we just give up now?
That one box of stuff is worth more than countless boxes of treasure.
The dwarf fox licked its lips, shrugged, and replied with only four words: "Restore history!"
It's that simple!
"Could this be... Madam Di?"
A gasp came from someone, and Mu Zhen quickly followed. After the bodyguards had set up the lighting, she was speechless with shock at the sight inside.
My God, it really is a royal court!!!
The layout of the main hall is very similar to the court in a Qin Dynasty palace drama that Mu Zhen once watched.
Thick stone pillars with dragon patterns, rows of neatly standing terracotta figurines, and a lifelike stone statue sitting on a rusty pure gold throne in the hall, wearing a crown and with piercing eyes, exuding power and awe.
That must be a stone statue carved in the likeness of King Zhou west by his subordinates.
The terracotta figures are all dressed in court attire and holding court tablets.
At first glance, it truly feels like stepping into a solemn scene of officials attending court.
