I created Qin Tianjian in modern times
Chapter 511: Discussions in the City
In desperation, Zhu Qingyang had to lead the team to continue forward, looking for the second dragon vein. Soon, they found that the second dragon vein was located in the Huangji Palace. This place is also known as the Golden Palace and the Supreme Golden Palace, which is the largest palace in the entire Forbidden City.
Zhu Qingyang led the team into the Huangji Palace. Even in the middle of the night, they could still feel the splendor and grandeur of the place. The entire Huangji Palace was decorated with thousands of golden dragon patterns inside and outside, and ten ridge beasts were installed on the corners of the roof. However, after entering the palace, Zhu Qingyang's face suddenly changed: "Something is wrong, the second dragon vein here is very weak!"
The members of Team 2 were shocked when they heard this. They knew the importance of dragon veins. Facing Bai Wenzheng's question, Zhu Qingyang sighed, "If we knew the reason, it would be easy. But now the information I have is similar to yours. I can only feel the dragon vein's breath. It is very weak. What's even more strange is that here I can only sense the dragon vein's breath, but I can't see the dragon vein's body, and I can't even tell what type of dragon vein it is. There are only two reasons for this: either the dragon vein is damaged and hides itself to survive; or the dragon vein is too weak to condense."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wen couldn't help but asked in surprise: "What is a dragon vein? Is it important?" Bai Wenzhen frowned and replied: "The leader said that the dragon vein is related to the country's destiny. If the dragon vein disappears, the country's fortune will decline and there will be no peace." Shen Wen nodded thoughtfully, full of curiosity about the leader mentioned by several people.
At this moment, sensing the abnormality of the dragon vein, Zhu Qingyang became solemn and led the team to push open the door and enter the hall. However, at this moment, a force burst out and another flash of lightning flashed across the sky. In an instant, Zhu Qingyang seemed to hear a dragon's roar. He was stunned in place, and it took a long time for him to react: "This is the power of the dragon vein, which caused the special lightning!"
Zhu Qingyang had been puzzled by the lightning before. Whenever lightning flashed, there was always a force coming from this side. It was not until now, when he was so close, that he suddenly discovered that the force was mixed with the breath of the dragon vein. In other words, the dragon vein was not dead, at least it could still emit power. But what exactly caused the dragon vein to hide and even cause lightning to appear at this moment?
With doubts, Zhu Qingyang pushed open the door of the Huangji Palace. With the sound of a decaying wooden door, the door slowly opened. However, at the moment the door opened, a huge shout came: "Long live the emperor!" Zhu Qingyang and his companions were stunned and at a loss.
When they stepped into the hall, they were surprised to find that the originally empty hall was now crowded with people! Civil and military officials stood on both sides, kneeling respectfully in front of the empty dragon throne in the sky. The lightning lasted unusually long, as if the dragon vein had done it on purpose so that everyone could see the scene clearly.
"This...what's going on?" Zhu Qingyang stood on the threshold of the Huangji Palace. As soon as he stepped in, his eyes widened and his body paused. Even he had never thought that he would see such a scene when he pushed open the door of the Huangji Palace.
Inside the hall, the carved beams and painted buildings sparkled under the illumination of lightning. Ghosts dressed in civil and military uniforms were everywhere, imitating the court etiquette of the human world. The sound of the door opening seemed to startle these ghosts. They all turned their heads, and countless pairs of eyes flashing with a faint green light looked at the door.
"How dare you! Who dares to barge into the court?" A man wearing the court uniform of a Qing Dynasty military officer with eyes as sharp as swords stood out from the military officers and shouted loudly, waving his arms, "Come here, take them down quickly, and don't disturb His Majesty!"
In an instant, teams of Qing imperial guards wearing yellow jackets and holding long swords rushed over aggressively. A rough count showed that there were at least a hundred of them!
Zhu Qingyang and the others had no time to react and quickly retreated out of the gate of the Huangji Palace. They could only hear chaotic discussions coming from the palace.
"Who are these people?"
"Could it be the assassin who prevented Emperor Qianlong from ascending the throne?"
"Emperor Qianlong's enthronement is a major event and must not be delayed. These assassins must be captured!"
"Do not disturb His Majesty..."
The sound of conversation in the hall reached everyone's ears, making them feel unbelievable, as if they were in the Qing Dynasty, and they even doubted whether they had heard it wrongly.
"What does it mean? Qianlong has been dead for a long time. Am I hallucinating?" Wang Ye frowned and thought for a long time, but couldn't figure it out.
Looking at the men in yellow jackets rushing up aggressively, Zhu Qingyang immediately gave an order: "Are you ready?"
Hearing this, Wang Ye and the others nodded solemnly, their eyes full of fighting spirit. They naturally had no good feelings towards these Qing Tartar officers and soldiers, and were ready to kill them all at any time!
Just when everyone was eager to try, Zhu Qingyang nodded and said firmly: "Retreat!"
"Ah?" Aning looked at Zhu Qingyang with some disdain, "Did you make a mistake? Try again?"
Zhu Qingyang sighed in frustration: "A wise man does not suffer a loss in front of him. Don't you see that the hall is full of ghosts? And have we figured out the situation? Have we investigated the cause of the damage to the dragon vein? Fighting now will not only waste time, but will also be of no benefit to the dragon vein. Remember, during the mission of the 543 Exploration Team, strength and courage are important, but brains and IQ are also key. A reckless man with only brute force cannot take on a big task!"
Then, fearing that the members of Team 2 would not listen to his advice, Zhu Qingyang straightened his back and put on the airs of a captain: "The commander said that all your actions outside must be under my command. Now everyone follow me and retreat without looking back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Qingyang disappeared without a trace. Everyone looked back in surprise, only to see him waving his hands several meters away: "What are you standing there for? Run!"
Several people looked at each other and had to hurry up and follow. Behind them were countless yellow jacket guards, all of whom were aggressive and full of murderous intent.
Before the Dragon Team could figure out what was going on, they saw the 543rd Exploration Team running faster than the other. For a moment, the Dragon Team members were all stunned: "What's going on here?"
When passing by the Dragon Group, Zhu Qingyang saw that they were still standing there in a daze, and he cursed: "What are you still doing standing here? Are you all waiting to die?"
Before they could come to their senses, Zhu Qingyang had already run away. Wang Ye and others followed behind and said to the leader of the Dragon Team, "Retreat first, we can't stay here for long! Master Mao is right, fighting and killing is not the solution to the problem. It is urgent to investigate the truth of the matter first."
Seeing this, the leader of the Dragon Team had to lead his team to quickly catch up with the 543 Exploration Team. As for Shen Wen... her speed was only a little slower than Zhu Qingyang!
When she heard Zhu Qingyang say to retreat, Shen Wen was the first to run out, but was later caught up by Zhu Qingyang who was faster. At this moment, she was tired from running. She supported her knees with her hands, bent over and panted. She was not afraid of the ghost soldiers behind her catching up. She just couldn't help laughing and said, "It's really interesting to carry out the mission with you. Are you also like Captain Chu, not playing by the rules?"
Zhu Qingyang said helplessly: "Captain Chu is much more powerful than us. His moves are beyond the imagination of ordinary people. But you are the leader, why are you the first to run away?"
Shen Wen tilted his head and said as a matter of course: "Didn't you tell me not to hold you back? Since you gave the order, I will naturally execute it immediately."
Zhu Qingyang suddenly realized that Shen Wen had no fear on her face. He knew that she was not lying, but simply did not want to be a hindrance and obey orders. Facing such a sensible and reasonable female leader, Zhu Qingyang became more and more determined in his thoughts and could not help but muttered: "It would be right to introduce the female leader to Captain Chu! When the mission is over, go back and ask Captain Chu if he wants a wife? If this works, wouldn't it be a great achievement for me, Master Cat?"
"What are you mumbling about?" Shen Wen looked at Zhu Qingyang suspiciously, but he didn't hear clearly what he said. He just heard a few words, such as "wife" and "Captain Chu".
Zhu Qingyang came back to his senses, smiled and shook his head, and suddenly asked: "Commander, I see that you are now a colonel, one step away from major general. You should still be young, right?"
Shen Wen didn't know why Zhu Qingyang asked this. Shouldn't he consider the current situation now? But she nodded and replied, "I am 29 years old."
Zhu Qingyang exclaimed: "You are really young and promising, as capable as our Captain Chu!" Shen Wen smiled faintly and did not respond.
Zhu Qingyang asked again: "You are 29 years old now, you should be married, right?" Shen Wen shook his head: "Not yet." Zhu Qingyang suddenly realized, and then stopped talking. He just chuckled, then turned around and saw that the others had finally caught up.
At this time, the lightning finally dissipated, and the yellow jacket guards behind him also disappeared. Zhu Qingyang didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he was sure that there were no pursuers behind him.
Several people came to Zhu Qingyang, and it was obvious that they could not accept his decision. Bai Wenzheng frowned and looked at Zhu Qingyang and asked, "Why do you want to withdraw? We haven't finished the investigation yet!"
Zhu Qingyang was speechless for a moment: "Why are you all so stubborn? You shouldn't use your abilities like this. Have we figured out the situation? Even if we fight with those yellow jackets, what's the point other than showing off the indomitable spirit and strength of the 543 Exploration Team?" "That's better than turning around and running, right? People who don't know would think that this is the style of our 543 Exploration Team ." Aning said dissatisfiedly, and glanced at Shen Wen next to him.
At this moment, Zhu Qingyang finally deeply realized the difficulties of being a captain.
During many exchanges, he unexpectedly discovered that this female leader from the war zone was the most disciplined.
He waved his hand, turned around and walked out of the Forbidden City, saying as he walked:
"You are still young and don't understand that this is a strategic deployment."
Hearing the word "young", Bai Wenzheng's face instantly darkened.
But Zhu Qingyang did not give them a chance to refute and continued:
"You all saw it just now, the Huangji Palace was full of civil and military officials.
A strong aura of death emanated from them, but there was no corpse smell in the aura of death.
Therefore, I speculate that what we see are all Yin objects, that is, ghosts.
When the lightning illuminated, the Yin Palace appeared, and the civil and military officials in the Huangji Hall should all be the Manchus of the time.
After their death, their resentment remained and turned into ghosts here."
"In that case, shouldn't we fight?
Are we going to let them do whatever they want here?"
Zhu Qingyang looked back at Aning, frowning:
"I want to fight more than anyone else. If I could kill a few Manchu Tartars with my own hands, I would wake up laughing in my dreams.
But we can't be impulsive about this kind of thing, we must first understand what exactly happened?
Find out the truth!
From the words of civil and military officials, we can draw a conclusion: after his death, Qianlong still wanted to be emperor.
It is easy to rush forward and fight. The worst that can happen is that you will die in battle and become a ghost, and continue to curse their ancestors.
But I'm sure I won't die. After all, I've reached the Five Immortals realm. They may not be able to do anything to me. But what's the point? Is it just to show off my strength?
In this case, your mission cannot be completed, especially the abnormal situation of the dragon vein cannot be found out.
So how is this different from mission failure?
Even if you win in the end, the investigation of the dragon vein will be delayed, resulting in some accidents, which will also affect the progress of the mission!
Therefore, remember, all actions of the 543 Exploration Team must be based on protecting the dragon veins and safeguarding the country's destiny, rather than fighting on the battlefield!
This is the first lesson I, Master Cat, will teach you!"
Zhu Qingyang's words surprised the team members.
I didn't expect that Zhu Qingyang, who usually seems frivolous, actually thought so much and considered it so carefully.
It seems that they had misunderstood the temporary captain before.
For a moment, the three new team members fell into deep thought, and then felt a little ashamed.
"I understand, Master Cat, I was too impulsive!
Thank you for your guidance, Master Cat!"
Wang Ye was the first to admit his mistake, feeling that he was still inexperienced and too reckless.
"Mr. Mao is right. 543's mission is indeed different from when I fought on the battlefield. Back then, I only focused on killing the enemy and defending the position. I didn't need to investigate the truth.
I, Bai Wenzheng, will keep in mind what Master Mao said today!"
Realizing that she had misunderstood Zhu Qingyang, Aning's tone softened a lot:
"I never thought that you, Master Cat, would be so thoughtful... You are worthy of being a member of the first team."
After being praised by the three people, Zhu Qingyang returned to his usual frivolous self and raised his eyebrows proudly:
“These are all basic operations. You will know later that Master Mao is the best member of the 543rd Exploration Team.
As for why I let the lieutenant be the captain, it was only because I didn't like this position that I gave it to him. Otherwise, he usually listens to me..."
In fact, Shen Wen didn't fully understand what Zhu Qingyang said.
But she witnessed the crisis just now with her own eyes.
I have been following this team for less than three hours and have experienced so many incredible things.
Shen Wen's attitude towards this team began to change.
At first, she was just following orders and had almost no feelings towards the 543rd Exploration Team.
