Rebirth 1958: My Home is in Nanluoguxiang

Chapter 266 7-Star Lu Palace Examination Room 1

In the eerie and dark waterway, when the young men heard Hou Zhenting say that they were the worst batch of recruits he had ever led, they all showed expressions of dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Hou Zhenting sneered and said, "I think you have probably guessed it. The mission site this time has been cleared by the bureau. To tell you the truth, there was originally a ghost from the pre-Qin period at the corpse site. This ghost was a practitioner who broke through the void when he was alive. If it was still there, you new recruits would not be enough to fill its teeth."

hiss!

A practitioner who breaks through the void?

The young men looked at each other with curiosity. Chang Wanzhu asked, "Where did it go?"

"It has been contained. This is a Level 6 incident. I don't know the details, but I want to tell you that when we investigators are performing our missions, we will face a lot of uncertainties. We must learn to solve problems at the lowest cost. If everyone is like you and uses up your trump cards early, what will we do if we encounter a crisis again?"

As Hou Zhenting spoke, his expression became more serious. Chang Wanzhu and the others knew that the other party was right, but their youthful pride prevented them from admitting their mistakes immediately.

The bamboo raft continued to move forward. After another fifteen minutes, Chang Wanzhu, who was at the front, saw a bright light in the distance and was immediately cheered up.

"Everyone try hard, I see the exit!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately quickened their pace, and sure enough, not long after, they saw the exit.

"Ah, it's finally out!"

Everyone rushed to the shore, sat down on the shore, and breathed in the fresh air of the mountains and forests.

It gets dark earlier in the mountains than outside. Even though it was just past five-thirty and the sun hadn't set yet, not much sunlight could be seen around because of the peaks.

After resting for about ten minutes and calming down, they got up and walked along the river. After walking another ten miles, they saw a small village. They did not enter the village, but bypassed it and continued along the route marked on the map.

"Okay, it's getting dark, let's set up camp here!"

This is an open river beach, and Chang Wanzhu decided to set up camp here. When everyone heard this, they immediately started to get busy.

Some were collecting firewood, some were catching fish, some were looking for wild vegetables, some were cooking, and soon the air over the river beach was filled with the rich aroma of fish.

Chen Wenjin, who also served as the cook, threw the noodles into the pot and stirred them.

"The noodles are ready, let's eat!"

Everyone came over with their lunch boxes, and Chen Wenjin put a fish and a full bowl of noodles into everyone's lunch box.

Although the noodle soup was very hot, the hungry teenagers could not wait to wolf it down. Even though the scene of the corpses piled up not long ago was still in their minds, it did not affect their enthusiasm for eating.

After dinner, everyone sat around Hou Zhenting.

"Now I announce the target of this mission, the Seven-Star Lu Palace. You should know from the name that this is an ancient tomb. What you have to do is to find the location of the Lu Palace, enter the Lu Palace, and find the Hydra Cypress. Then your mission will be completed."

"Report to the instructor!"

Hou Zhenting looked at Chang Wanzhu, who was raising her hand.

"What's your problem?"

"Is it that simple? There won't be a lot of traps in there, right?"

Hou Zhenting smiled lightly and said, "Whether there is or not, go and see for yourself!"

"How stingy!"

Chang Wanzhu immediately called everyone together for a small meeting to discuss the possible situations they would face tomorrow and made corresponding plans.

This time they didn't want to be in such a mess like before at the corpse-heap and be laughed at by Hou Zhenting.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, after finishing breakfast and quickly packing up the camp, everyone set out on the journey again.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, they finally arrived at the destination marked on the map.

Chang Wanzhu patted Wu Sansheng's shoulder vigorously and said, "Wu Sansheng, this time it's up to you!"

"Don't worry, as long as the scope is determined, no matter how big the tomb is, it can't be hidden."

While rubbing his shoulders, Wu Sansheng squatted down from time to time, grabbed a handful of soil and put it under his nose and smelled it.

Everyone watching his movements couldn't help but sigh that the Wu family's dog's nose was truly unique!

"Found it, this should be it!"

Wu Sansheng stepped on the soil beneath his feet with a very determined look on his face.

Since he said so, why hesitate, just start digging!

Sixteen or seventeen years old is the stage when people are full of energy and have nowhere to vent it. Several people took turns to dig a pit more than three meters deep in a short while.

"Hey, why did the soil turn red?"

Wu Sansheng, who was resting on the ground, rushed over immediately upon hearing this, poked his head out and shouted to Chang Wanzhu in the pit, "Give me a handful of that soil!"

Chang Wanzhu then scooped up a handful of red soil and handed it to Wu Sansheng. Wu Sansheng took it and sniffed it, his face changed: "Cinnabar? There's a bloody corpse here?"

boom!

Chang Wanzhu jumped out of the pit and sneered after hearing Wu Sanxing's words: "What blood corpse or not? At most I can feed it a small melon."

Uh!

Wu Sansheng looked at Chang Laowu in silence when he heard this. Then he saw Chang Laowu looking at him. He was stunned for a moment, then he realized that the Lu Palace had been tampered with by the bureau.

So he never mentioned it again, and everyone started digging again. Finally, at around four o'clock in the afternoon, they reached the top.

"Rest for a while and have dinner before going down. There will definitely be some trouble later!"

Chang Wanzhu brushed off the dirt on her body and asked everyone to take a rest.

Anyway, Prince Lu's Palace couldn't escape, so they had to recuperate before dealing with the assignments assigned by the bureau.

That's right, it's homework. At this moment, they have a clear understanding of the task. This is a practical test, and each of their performance will definitely be scored afterwards. Although they don't know what will happen if the score is low, they can tell with their heels that there will be no good consequences.

Wu Sanxing and Chen Wenjin murmured to each other for a while, then whispered to Chang Wanzhu and the others, "I just took a look at the roof. The shape of this tomb is from the early Warring States period. Since it is called the Palace of the King of Lu, if nothing unexpected happens, this is the fief of the State of Lu during the Spring and Autumn Period. So this must be the tomb of a certain generation of the King of Lu. The king's tomb at that time had the following anti-theft measures..."

Hou Zhenting, who was not far away, twitched his ears and a relieved smile appeared on his face. These little guys finally behaved themselves and were no longer as careless as yesterday.

After listening to Wu Sanxing's explanation, Chang Wanzhu and the others immediately understood what was going on. They simply ate some dry food and began to prepare to enter the underground palace.
