Chapter 108 Qin Sword

When Wei Yuan and Zhang Shaorong rushed back, the entire camp was in a state of extreme excitement.

Wei Yuan looked at the group of people surrounded by the crowd. They were clearly divided into two groups, but he could feel that they were all cultivators. Zhang Shaorong also paused, looking at Dong Yuefeng beside him, and said, "Professor Dong... this is..."

Dong Yuefeng's tone was also excited as he whispered, "They are the ones who have a way to enter the imperial tomb."

"What way?"

The old professor's gaze fell on those people as he said, "They say they are descendants of the Li and Wang families."

"Li family, Wang family?"

"General Li Xin of the Qin Dynasty, and Marquis Wucheng Wang Jian, Marquis Tongwu Wang Ben. They say their families still have the general seals of these three generals."

Wei Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly. Zhang Shaorong didn't know what to say. These three were all famous generals of the First Emperor's era. When Li Xin attacked Chu, if it weren't for the Qin minister Changping Jun rebelling with his status as a son of Chu and holding Li Xin back, the Chu general Xiang Yan might not have been able to take down Chu with ease.

Of the seven marquises of the Great Qin, the Wang family father and son occupied two.

Besides the shady eunuch Lao Ai who turned the wheel, the others who were equally famous were Shang Yang, Wei Ran, Fan Ju, and Lu Buwei, all of whom were civil officials. Only these two military generals were granted marquis status.

As for the reason, besides the initial conquest of Han, the father and son basically destroyed the other five states.

On the way to attack Chu, they casually took over the state of Wei.

The father and son were both extremely fierce.

Zhang Shaorong said, "Their descendants..."

Military merits in the Qin Dynasty could be passed on to sons.

Wei Yuan said, "The Wang family... descendants of General Wang Jian, are the Langya Wang clan, the lineage of Wang Xizhi."

"The descendants of General Li Xin were Li Guang of Longxi in the Han Dynasty. After Li Guang died in battle, Li Gan was killed by Marquis Guan Jun, and Li Ling was trapped among the Xiongnu. The descendants of this lineage... the Longxi Li clan, the Li Tang imperial family recognized Li Guang as their ancestor."

"Xiang Yan, who defeated General Li Xin, was the grandfather of Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Chu."

"And General Wang Jian killed the Chu general Xiang Yan. His grandson Wang Li was killed by Xiang Yu, the grandson of Xiang Yan."

History unfolded a line at this moment.

The current Li and Wang families are connected by transcendent cultivation methods, similar to sects existing in a special way. However, even if the military seals of the Qin Dynasty can be passed on to descendants, will they still be useful after being passed down generation after generation?

Wei Yuan looked into the distance, retracted his gaze, and looked at these cultivators.

...

After a period of discussion, the middle-aged man named Wang Guanghe came over and said, "We can take out the family treasures, but we hope that people from our clan can also participate in this entry into the imperial tomb."

The other party held the important key to entering the imperial tomb. No one knew if there would be similar situations after entering the imperial tomb. In addition, these people were all cultivators with their own inheritance. In the end, these requirements were met.

However, now another problem was placed before everyone.

They had the items, and theoretically they could pass through, but who would try?

Before this, all kinds of cultivators had tried their best, but they were still almost killed, and the number of magical artifacts, demon beasts, and mechanisms lost was unknown. The hundred steps were now full of chaotic spiritual energy turbulence, and if they wanted to use the general's order to drive one of the Twelve Metal Colossi, they undoubtedly needed to get close.

If they accidentally failed, or were unable to command, it would truly be a disaster.

Who had the confidence to avoid that sword at close range?

Everyone recalled the huge sword marks inside the imperial tomb, and fell into uneasy silence. Wei Yuan pondered in his heart and slowly opened his mouth to say, "Then I'll try." Everyone looked at him. Wei Yuan smiled and said, "I also want to go into the imperial tomb and take a look."

Unlike doing research outside, the opportunity to enter the imperial tomb was definitely not something everyone could have.

Someone felt an impulse to try.

But when they saw the huge and majestic Qin metal figures, they immediately lost their courage.

Wang Guanghe's eyes showed joy. He took out a general's order, said to be passed down from Wang Jian, from a young man beside him. Wei Yuan took it and stroked the patterns on it with his palm. His heart was complicated. His grandfather in that life had served under Wu'an Jun Bai Qi.

His father had followed the Wang family father and son to conquer the six kingdoms.

If his father died in battle, the military rank of the Great Qin could be accumulated on his son.

Therefore, everyone was warlike.

This law also allowed him to participate in the Iron Eagle Warrior assessment, and after he returned with the sea map after conquering the gods of Dongying, he received a military rank promotion. Of course, it was only a military rank promotion, equivalent to honor. Whether as a Halberd Attendant or as an Iron Eagle Warrior, he didn't need military power, so the military merit rank was equivalent to some kind of special reward.

This general's order had a special meaning to him.

But even Wang Jian, the true sword of Great Qin in the true sense, the military god, had already turned to ashes with the passage of time. Later generations became famous families, and the Wang family's children were all beautiful jades, completely different from the original military family.

He had met General Wang Jian.

His appearance... well, he was very majestic.

The Langya Wang clan... Ah Liang also lived in Langya County when he was young.

He had also met several children of the Langya Wang family.

Wei Yuan held the general's order and walked forward step by step. Everyone looked at him nervously. The entire camp was a little too quiet for a moment. Wei Yuan was calm, and the others couldn't see his expression from behind, so they thought he was extremely nervous.

Wei Yuan walked within a hundred steps.

The Great Qin metal figure showed no signs of movement.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and held their breath, staring at the development of the situation. Some people had already begun to regret it. If they had known it was safe, they would have gone up themselves. But now it was useless to regret it. Wei Yuan stood in front of the metal figure, twelve steps away, holding the general's order, and looked at the Great Qin metal figure, saying, "Today, I have important matters to discuss with His Majesty."

"Why don't you quickly retreat."

Huh?!!

Everyone's expressions froze.

No, you were supposed to find a way to solve this problem.

But aren't you afraid of really angering the other party with this tone and attitude?

That big sword wasn't made of paper.

Everyone knew that this matter was risky.

They were just gambling now, gambling that the Twelve Metal Colossi were, after all, inanimate objects that recognized objects and not people. Otherwise, there would be no way, unless they used large-scale formations or weapons, but that would easily cause casualties and collapse the imperial tomb.

But this attitude of yours, are you really treating yourself as a general of Great Qin?

Aren't you afraid of dying by holding a chicken feather as an arrow?

Just as everyone was regretting and angry in their hearts, the Great Qin metal figure, which had always been ruthless, solemn, and majestic, was silent for a while, as if recognizing something. Suddenly, it took half a step back and said, "So it's a general."

"It is not impossible for the general to see His Majesty."

"However, the others do not have military ranks."

Wei Yuan said slowly, "I have important matters and will not let them disturb His Majesty's rest."

"Nor will I allow them to threaten His Majesty's safety."

He paused and said frankly, "Don't you even trust me?"

The Twelve Metal Colossi replied solemnly, "No one in the world cares more about His Majesty, the First Emperor, than the general."

"Retreat!"

"Yes!"

Everyone was dumbfounded, seeing that the young man seemed to be a real general. The Great Qin metal figure, which had previously stood alone, pulled out the huge Qin sword, took three steps to the left, and actually opened the way. The Qin sword returned to its scabbard, and there was no more threat.

Wei Yuan, carrying the Wang family's general's order, looked at the path that appeared in front of him.

He turned around, handed out the general's order, and broke the silence, saying, "As expected of General Wang Jian's general's order, it's really powerful."

"Ah... yes, yes."

Wang Guanghe came back to his senses, agreed twice, and then let a Wang family cultivator quickly go over and bring back the general's order. The young man trotted over and solemnly took the general's order. When he held the general's order, he felt an impulse to issue orders with it. But when he raised his head, he found that the huge metal figure did not look at him at all.

A solemn and cold atmosphere, like Mount Tai pressing down, dispelled his little thoughts.

For some reason, he felt that if he opened his mouth, he would be split in half by a sword.

He immediately shuddered and ran back with the general's order. Wang Guanghe took care of the general's order with an obviously more cautious attitude than before, and then looked at the others. The Li family also had Li Xin's seal in their hands. The researchers quickly made a decision, selected personnel, and began to move inside.

Zhang Shaorong approached and praised, "A Yuan, you're really amazing. You can command that metal figure."

Wei Yuan shook his head and said, "It's not me, it's that general's order."

Zhang Shaorong smiled and remained noncommittal.

He added, "But your courage is much greater than others. As expected of you."

Wei Yuan didn't say much and casually threw him a bottle of mineral water he had brought back.

Dong Yuefeng was in charge of going inside, and the Taoist who was granted the Five Thunder Talisman also went inside. The selected researchers were all experts in a certain field. Professor Liu, the most serious and rigid, stayed outside, looked at the data, frowned, and said, "Strange..."

"What's wrong?"

"Wang Jian was a Marquis of Guannei, and he was often away from home. How could his general's order make the Twelve Metal Colossi responsible for guarding Xianyang Palace listen..."

At this time, everyone had entered the imperial tomb.

The people outside discovered that one of the Twelve Metal Colossi had reappeared and changed to a height of about two meters, and actually entered the imperial tomb with those people. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

Most people were eager to go inside.

Wei Yuan deliberately lagged behind in the imperial tomb.

The opportunity to enter the imperial tomb had already appeared, at least in the eyes of others, so someone would definitely enter here. Wei Yuan paused and waited here. Sure enough, not long after, several figures broke away from the front team and turned to walk towards the entrance.

"Take this opportunity to seal the entrance."

"Yes, this will prevent people from outside from coming in."

They were the people hiding in the Wang and Li families, preparing the formation and gunpowder. Suddenly, they heard a soft sound. The two of them tightened their backs subconsciously, turned their heads, and saw the huge metal figure, and the "researcher" who had just taken the initiative.

Their expressions relaxed slightly, and then they said in a low voice, "You heard..."

Wei Yuan said, "Seal the entrance, what do you want?"

The two paused, looked at Wei Yuan, their eyes cold, and after getting up, they approached.

One of them hesitated and said, "The metal figure is still there..."

The leader sneered, "He doesn't have a general's order anymore, are you afraid of him?"

"That's right."

The two suddenly burst out, one up and one down, killing the researcher who had no power to restrain a chicken. They were full of killing intent. The latter seemed to be frightened and stood there motionless, but his voice was calm, "Leave one life."

The two cultivators said, "Leave your life?"

"If you kneel down and call me grandpa, I can give you a complete corpse."

Suddenly, they felt an overwhelming killing intent cover them, and their movements stagnated.

Then, a fierce killing aura erupted.

It was as if the sky was being lowered.

A afterimage slashed out an arc from top to bottom.

The weapon was broken, and the mana entered the opponent's body, like a mud cow entering the sea, without any ripples. The huge and heavy weapon fell heavily, and the two lurking cultivators spat out blood. One of them was directly broken in half at the waist and died on the spot. The other was also seriously injured and fell heavily on the ground, on the verge of death.

This back and forth was only a moment. He fell to the ground, only feeling severe pain in his bones and muscles, his face pale. He saw that the researcher's expression was calm, and in the midst of the loud roar, a huge Qin sword was heavily pressed against the ground. The metal figure stood solemnly, and the baleful aura overflowed. The seriously injured cultivator's eyes were blank, and in a daze, he almost thought he had come to the ancient battlefield, almost ignoring the modern clothes on the young man.

How is it possible...

He clearly doesn't have a general's order anymore!

Wei Yuan leaned down and asked, "Your purpose..."

The cultivator subconsciously flashed the purpose of this trip in his mind. He was summoned, but he didn't know who the host was, but he knew what he was responsible for doing. The purpose was the supreme treasure in the imperial tomb, and the huge luck that accompanied the First Emperor. In this era, luck, a vague existence, possessed power far beyond all treasures.

Wei Yuan's voice seemed to have a strange power, causing him to almost subconsciously say, "In this era of great competition, only by occupying luck can we rise to power."

"I want to seize the remaining luck of the First Emperor in the imperial tomb to strengthen the family."

After speaking, he suddenly realized, his face ugly, and said, "You, what did you do?"

"Who are you..."

He saw the young man raise his hand forward, and the air spread out like ripples in the water. A wide sword appeared in his hand. The cultivator sensed something was wrong and was about to retreat. A cold light flashed before his eyes, and his throat had been cut open. The cultivator, who had attacked Wei Yuan as soon as they met, retreated while clutching his throat, as if he couldn't believe he had died like this.

Wei Yuan turned around and looked at the Twelve Metal Colossi that had entered with him, and said, "Order."

His sword was hanging at his waist, and he held the hilt with one hand, "His Majesty rests in peace, you guard this place."

"Those without my order cannot enter or exit. Those with hostile killing intent will be killed!"

The dying cultivator's eyes widened, and the last remaining expression solidified into horror.

Because he saw the Twelve Metal Colossi bow with their swords, so familiar, like memories solidified in time, responding -

"Yes!"

The voice paused and said, "Receive the Shao Shang Zao Order."

...

After blocking the back road, Wei Yuan went back to catch up with the people in front.

Now that the back road was blocked, there were still various mechanisms in the imperial tomb ahead.

Catching a turtle in a jar.

However, there were other forces.

Wei Yuan thought of Zhang Ruosu's words, and clenched his fist on the hilt of his sword -

He didn't know about the other forces, Goryeo, Baiyue, but Xu Fu from Sakura Island would definitely be tempted.

As for the reason.

Because Xu Fu was in fear.

Two thousand two hundred years of fear!

Wei Yuan waved his hand to disperse the formation that sealed the sound, and strode forward with his sword.

ps: Today's first update... 4400 words, there should be two more updates ~ or a chapter of more than 5000 words.

Shao Shang Zao, the fifteenth level of the Great Qin's twenty-level military merit rank.

The first five levels, Chehou, Guanneihou, are difficult to confer, Sichu Shuzhang, Da Shuzhang, are often owned by members of the royal family, which are both positions and titles. Da Shao Shang Zao is almost the limit for ordinary people, such as Wu'an Jun Bai Qi, although he has the title of Jun, his actual military rank is Da Liang Zao, but I think this is a special case. Generally speaking, Jun is the title of Chehou, such as Shang Jun and the like.
