Apprentice of the Heavens

Chapter 140 Li Siyuan takes the blame

Longquan underground palace
"Is this... inside the Longquan treasure that people all over the world dream of?"

Looking at the gate in front of him, Li Xingyun couldn't help showing a trace of complexity in his eyes. Since he came out of the mountain, he has been entangled with the Longquan treasure. It's all over now.

Li Maozhen ignored Li Xingyun's melancholy, stretched out his hand and pushed it away, and the stone door was slowly pushed open after a sound. The two couldn't help but hold their breath and nervously stepped into the darkness behind the door. Just as they stepped into the stone door, the mechanism was triggered , one after another flames began to burn, and the two looked intently.

"This………"

"how can that be!"

Li Maozhen looked at the cave in disbelief, a gust of reverse blood gushed into her throat, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out involuntarily.

"Is this the Longquan treasure that people all over the world dream of?"

Li Xingyun rubbed his eyes for a while before confirming that it was not a hallucination, and he couldn't help asking doubts. At this time, there were no mountains of gold and silver treasures in the cave, nor the rumored martial arts cheats, nor the legendary elixir. Then laugh at the people who came in.

The only thing left was a gold ingot on the stone platform in the square, which seemed to praise them for their hardships along the way, but it was no wonder that Li Maozhen was so angry that he vomited blood.

"No! Someone has been here!"

After wiping off the blood from the corner of his mouth, Li Maozhen stared at the broken marks on the pillar and muttered to himself. Li Xingyun took a closer look and found that the broken marks on the pillar seemed to be artificial.

"Someone must have been here before, the Longquan treasure has been removed!"

After finishing speaking, Li Maozhen stared at Li Xingyun with cold eyes. Seeing this, the corner of Li Xingyun's mouth twitched into a bitter smile, and said, "Do you believe me when I say that I have never been here?"

"I believe."

A voice as gentle as jade sounded, and Li Ming suddenly appeared in the cave, as if he was here in the first place.

The sudden appearance of Li Ming startled the two of them. After a while, Li Xingyun was the first to react and came to Li Ming's side. Li Maozhen didn't stop her eyes but stared at Li Ming.
"You evacuated the place?"

Li Maozhen asked unwillingly, Li Ming nodded and shook his head with a twitch of his mouth, Li Maozhen and Li Xingyun couldn't help being stunned, a moment later Li Maozhen looked at Li Ming with a gloomy expression

"What do you mean by this? If it is true, then it is not, so why bother to make a fuss."

Seeing this, Li Ming raised his finger to a gold ingot on the small stone platform in the square and said, "Isn't there still a little left? How can you say that I emptied it?"

The corner of Li Xingyun's mouth twitched when he heard that the huge treasure is now leaving a gold ingot, thanks to my brother who can make it, if the princes outside come in and see it, they will probably vomit blood with anger.

Li Maozhen looked at the gold ingot on the stone platform with a gloomy face, the veins on her forehead were bulging, and her clenched hands creaked.

"What are you doing looking at me like this? Are you saying to stay or not?"

Li Ming spread his hands and said, Li Maozhen finally couldn't help it when he said this, and slapped Li Ming with a palm surge of true energy in his hand.

Shi Potian's startling blow was quick and ruthless, and aimed directly at Li Ming's heart, but Li Ming remained motionless as if he hadn't reacted. Li Xingyun was about to remind him when he saw this, but swallowed the words again.

I saw that Li Maozhen's shocking blow stopped one meter away from Li Ming, and the purple zhenqi in his hand slowly dissipated. Of course, it was not that Li Maozhen suddenly softened his heart and showed mercy, but Li Ming's protective energy melted him Just really angry.

Li Maozhen felt the dissipation of true energy in his hands, and the horror flashed by, and when he was about to retreat, suddenly a chill hit his neck, and the hairs stood up involuntarily, and his body instinctively wanted to avoid it, but unfortunately he was a step too late.

With the sound of "Peng!", Li Maozhen only felt a pain in her neck, a sense of dizziness began to hit her, and her body began to fall limply to the ground. Li Ming tapped a Tai Chi pattern in the air and covered Li Maozhen, and then disappeared after a moment of flickering. Entering Li Maozhen's body, Li Xingyun looked at this scene in amazement and looked at Li Ming curiously.
"Brother, what are you doing?"

"Taiji seal, seal the spirit and spirit to turn the enemy into an ordinary person, do you want to try?"

Li Ming rolled his eyes at the curious Li Xingyun and narrowed his eyes, his fingers were eager to try. Seeing this, Li Xingyun shook his head hastily. Li Ming seemed to hold back the zhenqi on his fingertips with some regret, and glanced at Li Maozhen who was unconscious.

"You carry him on your back, go out first."

Although Li Xingyun was doubtful, he didn't dare to disobey his elder brother's words. He carried Li Maozhen on his back and left the cave. After a while, the two of them came outside.

Li Xingyun glanced at the dazzling golden light rising into the sky at the entrance, and could only secretly condemn his brother's black belly.

The corpses of Jin soldiers outside the entrance of Longquan began to slowly turn into ashes, and the golden light also began to dissipate slowly. Li Xingyun had left the salt marsh in a few blinks with Li Maozhen on his back.

Not long after, Li Siyuan, who was relatively close to the camp, came to the entrance of Longquan with his troops. After glancing at the corpses on the ground, he couldn't help but frown. Then when he looked at the entrance, he couldn't help being taken aback, suddenly feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Not good! Someone got there first!"

Thinking back to the golden light that soared into the sky and the corpses on the ground just now, Li Siyuan became more and more uneasy, and when he was about to follow his heart and retreat, he saw that the surroundings were already surrounded by the princes who came from behind, and under the light of the torches, the entire salt marsh was brightly lit.

The princes glanced at the dead soldiers on the ground, and the king of Chu, Ma Yin, took the lead and said, "King Jin, we have discussed it before, but now you are massacring our soldiers for no reason, is it because you want to go back and steal the treasure?"

Li Siyuan could feel the questioning eyes cast by the princes, and his heart sank. He was about to become a target of public criticism. Li Siyuan narrowed his eyes and then showed a gentle smile

"The king of Chu was joking. This king has just arrived. Since everyone is here, how about we go in together?"

After finishing speaking, he quietly exchanged glances with Li Cunli who was at the side, then shook the Tongwen fan and quietly looked at the princes who were whispering.

After all, the temptation of the Longquan treasure was too great, and the princes finally agreed. As for the soldiers who died on the ground, none of them cared. Compared with the Longquan treasure, these soldiers were nothing to them.

After the princes ordered the soldiers to defend outside, each of them entered the entrance of the Longquan treasure with a dozen guards. The soldiers outside were vigilantly guarding the Jin army. Li Cunli moved his finger lightly, and then looked at the entrance as if nothing had happened. .

After half a stick of incense
In the cave where the Longquan treasure was buried, the door was pushed open again.

"Li Siyuan! You are too deceitful!"
