Both worlds are like dreams

Xu Yao raised his eyebrows, "How did he know that only the descendants of Beiyuan would be able to find this place hundreds of years later?"

Wei Yunzhou glanced at the gem in his palm and said, "This is what the god left behind. This is the secret."

However, no records were left of this thing, and the person who got it would not have thought that it was related to this secret.

Both of them looked at Xue Huang. She had no interest in the contents on the stone tablet and didn't even listen to what they were saying.

He was just flipping through the books on the table, as if he was thinking about something.

"Can you understand the words above?" Xu Yao asked.

Xue Huang nodded, "This is what the gods left behind. It is also the treasure that helped Beiyuan grow from a weak tribe into a country. It was also the fuse that led to Beiyuan's destruction."

"What exactly is written on it?"

Wei Yunzhou said, "It doesn't matter what is written. Our ancestors said that things here cannot be taken away. In this case, we should continue to seal it."

Xue Huang glanced at Gu Qinglan and Mo Ruilin, "What do you think?"

Neither of them spoke, seeming to be hesitant.

Xue Huang was also a little hesitant. Some things here could still help Bei Ling become rich and powerful, but the lesson of Bei Yuan's destruction was right in front of them, and no one knew what the price would be in the future.

"Have you thought about it?" Mu Guang asked. "You can actually take all these things with you. I can tell you everything inside. Although it won't allow Bei Ling to dominate Liuyun Continent in a short period of time, it can save many lives. You have to know that every civilization will grow through blood and hardship. No one can predict the future, but right now, they need these things to build a peaceful and prosperous world."

Xue Huang no longer hesitated. If there was a price to pay, let her bear it alone. This deal was worth it.

She picked up the essays and said, "Let's go."

"You want to take it out?" Wei Yunzhou stopped her.

Xue Huang nodded, "Second Uncle, isn't it the guidance of the gods that allowed us to come here? If the gods really wanted all this to be sealed forever, why did they leave a mechanism to open this place? There must be a will of heaven. Besides, most of the contents of these essays are things we already know. Times have changed, and these things are not too far ahead of the present."

Wei Yunzhou didn't say anything, but he didn't object either.

Xu Yao was silent for a moment, "Just make the decision."

Xue Huang handed the four essays to Wei Yunzhou, "Second Uncle, help me get them."

"What are you going to do with the rest of the things?" Wei Yunzhou asked.

Xue Huang glanced at everyone, "What about you? Did you all get the answers you wanted?"

Xu Yao sighed, "I thought the Beiyuan royal family passed down a treasure that could restore the country, but it turns out to be nothing more than this."

"At that time, it did change the fate of many people. It was indeed a huge treasure for the Phoenix Tribe." Gu Qinglan said. "I just flipped through these bamboo slips and found that some of the ideas and insights proposed by the god were very unique. For example, the "rule of man" mentioned by the god, which is people-oriented and benevolent, and the "rule of law", strict laws and strict punishments, and ruling the country by law, all make sense. But I don't understand the "rule by inaction."

Xue Huang directly picked out the relevant bamboo slips and handed them to him, "If you like them, take them away and study them slowly."

Gu Qinglan was slightly stunned, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Xue Huang glanced at the others, "Pick whatever you like. We're already here, so it doesn't matter if you bring one or two."

Mo Ruilin smiled and said, "You're welcome, I think the contents of these volumes are very interesting."

Xue Huang took a glance and was speechless.

Those tattered bamboo slips recorded some interesting and strange stories.

Really, even as an emperor he is still so unreliable.

Everyone carefully looked through all the bamboo slips here, and before they knew it, a long time had passed.

Xue Huang felt a little stuffy. It seemed that they had been staying in this dark and airtight place for so long that it was inevitable that they must be feeling a little uncomfortable.

But in the end, everyone picked out some things that interested them, and the rest were of little use.

Gu Qinglan and Mo Ruilin are of course most interested in things like governing a country, while Xu Yao is more curious about the use of troops and fighting wars. As for Wei Yunzhou, he is the same and likes to read things like the art of war. Their interests are basically the same.

Only Mo Yunchen put everything down after flipping through some of the books, as if he didn't care at all.

Xue Huang felt puzzled. He had been pursuing this secret for so many years, and now it was right in front of him, so why didn't he care? But then he thought about it and figured it out.

If he wanted something, he could just use Gu Qinglan to threaten her, so he didn't have to worry about it himself.

"That's enough. Let's go out. It's too stuffy here." Xue Huang stuffed the bamboo slips in her hand into Wei Yunzhou's hand, treating him like a coolie.

Several people left covered in dust and holding a pile of bamboo slips. When they reached the door, Xue Huang slowed down her pace, watched them step onto the stairs, and suddenly closed the door from the inside.

This move caught everyone by surprise.

Mo Yunchen was walking at the end, and was the first to react. He frowned slightly and flew over.

Xue Huang had already prepared for this. She slashed down with a sword energy, and a row of ice spikes shot out in front of the stone gate, blocking Mo Yunchen.

The stone door closed very quickly, and with just this one blockage, only a gap the size of a fist was left.

The others also acted quickly, smashing the ice spikes, and then used their scabbards to press against the crack in the stone door.

"Xuehuang, what are you going to do?" Gu Qinglan asked.

Xue Huang smiled slightly and said, "Don't be nervous, take care of some personal matters and wait for me upstairs." After that, she opened the scabbard and the stone door was completely sealed.

Xue Huang turned around and walked in front of the mural, embedding three gemstones into the relief of the phoenix.

After a moment, the entire stone wall began to shake and slowly rose upward, revealing a passage leading to a deeper depth.

The entire stone wall fits together so tightly, who would have thought that it actually houses a huge mechanism? But how is this mechanism set up?

Although Xue Huang was puzzled, she didn't have time to care because her attention was attracted by the stairs that appeared.

The top of this space is covered with layers of rocks, which appear to be very old.

This staircase was built entirely out of the mountain, utilizing the rock strata, and is very rough.

Beiyuan has only a few hundred years of history, but these steps seem to be a work of art from an even older time.

"What on earth is down there?"

"I'll take you to see it." Mu Guang said. "Just keep going down. It's safe."

Xue Huang held the night-shining pearl and the fire stick and went downstairs.

This staircase is much longer than the one above, and it seems to have no end.

The further down you go, the colder it gets, and you can't see what's underneath.

However, Mu Guang said there was no danger, so Xue Huang kept walking down.

"Is this the pit dug by my Beiyuan ancestor?" Xue Huang couldn't help but ask.

"This was created by a meteorite from outer space many, many years ago. I discovered it when your ancestors dug the pit above, but I didn't tell them, so they don't know either."

"What's in this?"

"My body."

Xue Huang was stunned for a moment, "What?"

"Don't make a fuss." Mu Guang said disdainfully. "If you follow me, nothing will be surprising."

"That's true, but I won't see a pile of bones later, will I? They've been buried for so many years, it won't be..." Xue Huang showed an indescribable expression.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. You'll know when you see it."

Xue Huang quickened her pace. She didn't know how long she had been walking down. She just felt like she was walking down all the time. Her legs were shaking from walking so much.

She didn't know where she was, but she finally saw the exit of the passage because a very strange light appeared in front of her.

Xue Huang hurried out and saw the full picture of the underground space. It was a huge pit and the surrounding stones were also very peculiar, but the most special thing was the glowing thing in the middle of the bottom of the pit.

It turned out to be a palm-sized stone, emitting a faint light blue light.

Xue Huang carefully jumped to the bottom of the pit, walked closer to the stone, and found a natural irregular stone bed there with a person lying on it. The stone was held in the person's hand and placed on his chest.

As for that person, Xue Huang saw his face clearly and it turned out to be Mu Guang.
