Chapter 744: The Situation of Devouring Luck and Pressuring the Country
The soldier behind him laughed heartily and said, "This princess is quite pretty. How about we have some meat tonight?"
Tao Yao was so angry that she was shaking: "You toad, you actually want to eat swan flesh? Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror? What do you look like?"
The soldiers laughed even more happily: "I like this kind of strong force, little bitch, I will let you taste my power in a moment."
Bai Wanwan couldn't help herself. She had originally thought about letting them go, but now she didn't pretend anymore and ordered with narrowed eyes: "Detain them all!"
When the leader heard this, he burst into laughter: "I want to see how you can detain us!"
Bai Wanwan's men immediately picked up their weapons, but when the veteran soldiers saw this, they laughed:
"Just relying on this little thing in your hand, you still want to stop us?
Come on, brothers! Take them down, and we can go have some fun!"
Among the people Bai Wanwan brought, a small half were women, and all of these women were very beautiful. In the eyes of those veteran soldiers, they posed no threat at all.
But just as they finished speaking, they heard the sound of "bang bang bang".
Many veteran soldiers fell to the ground one after another as if their strength had been drained away.
The rest of the people were instantly horrified. The leader was also stunned. He stared at the people on the ground and shouted in shock and fear: "What are you? Run, run!"
But since Bai Wanwan has already drawn her weapons, how could she possibly give them a chance to escape?
All I heard was the sound of "bang bang bang" and soon all the soldiers fell to the ground.
Bai Wanwan walked up to the leader and looked at his embarrassed appearance. Her tone was calm but with a hint of regret: "I originally wanted to let you go, but you refused to listen and insisted on running into the gun. Now you are like this, it's your own fault."
The leader knelt down and said, "Princess, please forgive me! I know I was wrong. I have parents and children to take care of..."
Bai Wanwan looked at him and said, "Do you think I could possibly forgive you?"
"If you kill me, you will be in big trouble. Everyone in Parthia will know that I'm here and will definitely investigate.
Do you think you can hide this from the world?" the leader shouted.
Bai Wanwan's eyes were full of mockery:
"Didn't you say that? This place is full of bandits. If you guys die, then who would suspect us?
Besides, this place is remote, so even if someone wanted to investigate, they wouldn’t be able to find us.”
She simply waved her hand, and the people behind her immediately stepped forward and carried all the remaining soldiers off the ground.
Batu on the side was already trembling with fear. He still didn't know what weapons Bai Wanwan's men had, but just seeing those people falling to the ground one by one made him feel terrified.
He fell to his knees with a plop:
"We Xunxu people keep our words! I promised to serve you, and I will never go back on my word!
From now on, you will be our master. If you are worried, we will sign a master-servant contract with you now!"
Bai Wanwan looked at his panic, a smile returned to her face, and her tone softened a little:
"Okay, that's settled then. We'll sign a master-servant agreement from now on, and I won't treat you unfairly.
Many people have died in Qingshui County now. I need help and I will provide you with shelter and food.
You will be treated just like the people in Qingshui County, and even your children can go to school."
Batu said in disbelief, "Are you saying that we Xunxu people can also go to school in the future?"
Bai Wanwan looked at him and said:
"Yes! We in Qingshui County have our own school, the Mortal Academy.
Every child in Qingshui County can go to school, and the tuition is very cheap.”
Batu cried, Bai Wanwan looked at him and said, "No, what's wrong?"
Batu looked at her and said:
"We've been hiding for over 20 years, never having a single peaceful day. From childhood to university, the first skill we learned was how to escape.
In order to avoid being hunted by the government and being bullied by other forces, I even have to keep my ears open when I sleep."
“As for the second skill, it’s tomb robbing.
Our ancestors had people who specialized in this and left behind many old books on tomb robbing.
We've been learning from books since we were young: how to read feng shui, how to find tombs, how to avoid the traps inside, all of which we rely on to make a living."
He lowered his eyes and spoke in a deeper tone:
"But tomb robbing is too risky. You either fall into a trap or get robbed.
Most people in our tribe don't live past thirty, and those who reach forty are considered old."
"In fact, we didn't want to live in such fear any longer and just wanted to find a place to settle down.
But those Parthians never gave us a chance. They either robbed us or used us as stepping stones."
Having said this, he suddenly looked up at Bai Wanwan and said:
“I never thought that one day we would have the opportunity to study.
I didn’t even dare to think about it before. I always thought that people like us who survived by robbing tombs would be buried in the ground for the rest of our lives, never to see the light of day.
Bai Wanwan looked at him and said, "You don't need to belittle yourself. What should we do next?"
Batu hurriedly took out a piece of parchment from his pocket, held it in both hands and handed it to Bai Wanwan, saying:
"Master, this is the address of the treasure map, I will give it to you now.
However, we wandered around Qingshui County for several days and searched all the nearby mountains, but we still couldn't find the place marked on the map.
But we can be sure that the treasure is definitely located in this area, but it is hidden too secretly and we have to search carefully.
Back then, a sorcerer said that the empress must be buried here because this place is a feng shui location that gathers energy and stores luck, ensuring prosperity for future generations."
Suddenly, a steady voice came from behind Bai Wanwan:
"Master, this matter is probably not that simple. This place is not a Feng Shui place that gathers energy and stores luck. Instead, it is a place that devours luck and suppresses the country.
The queen was buried here to suppress the fortune of our Great Qi Kingdom, so that their descendants in the Parthian Kingdom could take advantage of the situation and prosper, surpassing us for a long time."
Bai Wanwan turned around and smiled:
"I almost forgot, Ah Zhi, you are also a tomb raider, and you are very knowledgeable about Feng Shui.
Come here quickly, take a look at this treasure map, and then see how to find it."
Ah Zhi took the treasure map and frowned slightly. "Master, look, the mountain marked on the map is dangerous, but it lacks the structure of a hidden aura. It doesn't look like a place where a tomb is hidden."
He pointed to another mountain nearby, and said with a more determined tone:
“I think it’s that mountain. You see, it’s backed by the main peak and surrounded by a stream in front.
It just fits the main layout of the tomb, facing the water and backing the mountain, and it can store wind and gather energy. The treasure is most likely hidden there."
