Collectors of Beauty World

Chapter 140 Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
According to the plot of the movie, there is another loyalist of Qin Shihuang in this world.These people are a bunch of villains in the movie.

Lu Zhongrui didn't have any particular dislike for them.Those guys don't get much of a role in the movie.However, those guys seemed to be a small warlord, but it was not explained clearly in the movie, so Lu Xiao couldn't find him directly.

In the end, we have to find compensation from the First Emperor himself.

Lu Xiao was naturally preparing to resurrect the First Emperor.In the movie, one of the important factors in the resurrection of the First Emperor is the Eye of Shangri-La, and the other is the Fountain of Eternal Life.

The Eye of Shangri-La can restore his mana, and the Fountain of Eternal Life can restore his body.

Lu Xiao had no idea what to do about the Fountain of Eternal Life for the time being. That thing was in the Snowy Mountains.But for the Eye of Shangri-La, he had already been prepared.

In the movie, this thing is a cultural relic that was taken away from China when the British government cooperated with the Nationalist government and returned it.

However, under Lu Xiao's advance operation, he had already obtained the Eye of Shangri-La before coming to China.This thing was originally collected by a museum in the UK.

Benny spent a lot of resources but failed to promote this matter in advance.Finally, under Lu Xiao's order, he stormed directly into the museum, slaughtered dozens of security guards, and forcibly took back the Eye of Shangri-La.

Qin Shihuang was tricked by Ziyuan, a second-rate sorcerer, who used a curse to completely turn him and his subordinates into pottery figurines.

And the reason why the warlock destroyed the entire Qin Empire was because the First Emperor killed his lover.

In fact, Lu Xiao didn't have much objection to this scene where he became a lover in anger.Now, if someone dared to do this to his lover, he would flatter him without hesitation.

The mistake in this matter was that Ziyuan not only destroyed the First Emperor, but also cursed all his troops.It is equivalent to destroying the entire empire.

The lover who died, Guo Ming, was originally Qin Shihuang's general.Qin Shihuang fell in love with Ziyuan and sent his most trusted personnel to protect her.

At that time, as a general under the emperor, Guo Ming was obsessed with the woman the emperor liked.Nowadays, this is called free love, but in ancient times, what was it called?

The emperor said, I have fallen in love with this woman. Do you think I should try it out first?In the end, Guo Ming was killed by the First Emperor.

But there is actually a very interesting place here.Ziyuan later claimed that she destroyed the Qin Empire because the Qin Emperor was tyrannical and immoral, and at the same time killed her lover.

But there is an interesting detail in the movie.That is, the book of immortality that Ziyuan found for Qin Shihuang was false from the beginning.When she recited the scriptures, she was actually setting the curse.

At that time, Guo Ming had not actually been killed.

In other words, before her lover died, she had already planned to kill Qin Shihuang.Therefore, her concept of revenge was untenable from the beginning.

This is also the reason why Lu Xiao hates this character.What this woman did was simply unreasonable.If she really loved Guo Ming, she could elope with him directly in the ancient temple.

But she didn't. Instead, she went back with the other party and directly destroyed the First Emperor and all his troops.Doesn't she know that after the world is unified, once the First Emperor dies, it will immediately fall into war, and countless people will be killed by her selfishness?

But she did it anyway.

Then he later claimed that killing Qin Shihuang was for the sake of the people of the world.The people of the world are so fucking grateful to you.It has been peaceful for a few days, but now it is in chaos due to war, and it’s all thanks to you.

The entire character's behavioral motivations are illogical, and his stance is even more illogical.This is also why Lu Xiao hates this movie.This thing should never be on the big screen.

But fortunately, there is a loophole in the curse.That is, the power of the curse is concentrated on the First Emperor.As long as he can unblock it, he can awaken the army that turned into pottery figurines.Generally speaking, it is somewhat similar to Immorton's experience.

The First Emperor had learned magic back then, and he was a master among masters.Once she regained consciousness, Ziyuan did not dare to take advantage of him.

In this era, the corrupt governments and warlords everywhere have no intention of protecting cultural relics.All are fighting for power and conquering each other.

After Lu Xiao arrived, he directly spent a lot of money to conduct various inspections and wooing.The tomb of the First Emperor was quickly located.

The truth of that year has been sealed.Most people in later generations did not know that those pottery figurines were the troops of the former First Emperor.Just thought it was some terracotta warriors and horses.

Most of the soldiers and horses were buried in tombs in later generations.It took Lu Xiao's men a lot of effort to finally find the real Dragon Emperor's tomb.

The tomb is not big.But it was stuffed to the brim.Countless funerary objects are placed here, among which a carriage is extremely conspicuous.

A coffin was pulled behind the carriage, and there was a driver in front of the carriage.

According to conventional thinking, the person inside the coffin should be Qin Shihuang.But in fact, I don’t know what went wrong in the middle.The real First Emperor was actually a charioteer.

You must know that the transformation of the First Emperor's pottery figurines was very sudden.It was impossible for him to make advance arrangements.Lu Xiao guessed that when the tomb was built later, he didn't know who the real First Emperor was, so he made a mistake.

After clearing away all his subordinates, Lu Xiao walked to the First Emperor alone.

The Eye of Shangri-La requires the blood of a pure person to open.Lu Xiao himself is not a pure person.But he was prepared for this.

He raised the Eye of Shangri-La high with his right hand.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared above the tomb, like a juggling act, swinging over Lu Xiao's head with a rope, and snatched the Eye of Shangri-La from Lu Xiao's hand.

The black shadow moved extremely nimbly, flying over the tomb and climbing over the walls, using various support points to quickly get away from Lu Xiao and escape to the door.

But the moment she landed, she immediately felt something was wrong.The ground was too soft, as soft as a quagmire.

Looking down, I saw that the ground under my feet had turned into quicksand at some point.And he has already fallen into it.

The man in black threw out a rope and hung it on a cornice above his head.Wanting to pull myself out.

But after throwing out the rope, he suddenly discovered that the rope in his hand had turned into a poisonous snake at some point.

The man in black threw away the poisonous snake in his hand in panic.But after the poisonous snake fell to the ground, she took a closer look and saw that there was no poisonous snake anywhere. She had obviously thrown away the only tool that could help her escape.

"I'm curious, you really don't understand spells. This kind of quicksand trap should be the simplest for the Five Elements spell. You can't even break this spell."

Lu Xiao said as he walked up to the man in black.With a slight movement of his fingers, the mask of the man in black was untied by the mage's hands, revealing the handsome face inside.

It's a girl named Zilin.That is, the idiot-like leader in the movie, the daughter of the sorceress Zi Lin.

Just like in the movie, the sorceress didn't teach her daughter any magic for some unknown reason.

His kung fu was pretty good, but in front of Lu Xiao now, this little kung fu was far from enough.

"You already knew I was there and lured me out on purpose?"

"That's right. You don't know any magic, yet you dare to spy on a spell caster. Is this what your mother taught you?"

".who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is who you are. What are you doing here?" Lu Xiao said, with a slight movement of his fingers, a dagger from the girl's waist flew out and fell into his hand.

"This is what your mother gave you. A weapon capable of killing the First Emperor?"

"You"'s own secrets were exposed one by one by Lu Xiao, and Zilin no longer knew how to deal with it.

"Don't you want to say it? Let me say it for you. You are here to kill the First Emperor, right?"

"Yes, I will kill him completely so that he can never be resurrected."

"Interesting, can you tell me why?"

"Why else? The First Emperor was ignorant, cruel and tyrannical, and everyone wanted to kill him."

".Is this what your mother told you?"

"Of course. My mother is."

"A sorceress who has lived for more than 2000 years, I know. I mean, do you think you are saving the world by killing the Dragon Emperor?"

"of course."

"So you are currently sealing the Dragon Emperor to save the world?"

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Looking at Zi Lin who looked unhappy, Lu Xiao squatted down and said with a smile.

"Don't get excited, I'm just going to debate this issue with you. Come, I'll take you to see something."

Lu Xiao stood up and walked outside, not even paying attention to the Dragon Emperor in the tomb.Instead, he took Zilin to the nearest town.

In the early years of the Republic of China, social order had basically collapsed.Is the tragedy Lu Xiao saw at the dock considered a tragedy?

You must know that it is the largest dock in Nanjing, and Nanjing was already an extremely wealthy city at this time.

We can still see the human tragedy. What is the state of these fringe towns?

Lu Xiao didn't want to use words to describe those tragedies.If he hadn't seen too much these days, he would have been unable to resist killing Duan Qirui's government.

Although Zilin is young and strong, she lives in seclusion with her mother all year round and doesn't know much about the world.Although I have seen the suffering in the world, I have never felt it so intuitively.

After a long time, the girl asked with a dull expression.

"What exactly are you trying to tell me?"

"Nothing, I just want you to see the true face of this era. By the way, do you think this country should be saved?"

"The people are in dire straits, so of course they should be saved."

"Then do you think what you are doing is saving people?"

"."

This time, Zilin was silent.Even though she has average intelligence, she can still think of things quickly.

For example, if she breaks into a tomb and kills a monarch from more than 2000 years ago, she won't be able to save anyone on the street.

"Mother is a cultivator and should not interfere in the secular world." She knew what Lu Xiao would say next.So try to defend your mother.

"Haha, you shouldn't interfere in the secular world. Then she killed the First Emperor's millions of troops and caused chaos in the whole world. Doesn't that count as interfering in the secular world?

If she is to save the common people.So who did she save?The First Emperor unified the world and ended the war.Even though people’s lives will not get better immediately.But after all, we will not experience the pain of war.That's when she took that peace away.

So what exactly is her behavior like?Looking at the world now, this is when the Central Plains needs saving the most.What is she doing?Continue to save people?How does she plan to save this time?Or do nothing and pretend that you are not in this world? "

Lu Xiao's questioning was not harsh, but to Zilin, it was extremely sharp.Because she found that she couldn't answer any of the other party's questions at all.

She grew up under Ziyuan's guidance.Her outlook on life and the world were all instilled in her by her mother who had erroneous outlook on life.At this time, facing Lu Xiao's sudden questioning, he had no room to reply.

And Lu Xiao didn't mean anything to her.He didn't even keep her, but just let her go.

"You can go, go back and ask your mother about the question I asked before, and then come back and tell me the answer."

With that said, he turned around and walked towards the tomb of the First Emperor without looking at Zilin again.

Zilin left at a loss. She had too many questions to ask her mother, not only Lu Xiao's previous questions, but also some doubts in her own heart.

After returning to the tomb, Lu Xiao opened the Eye of Shangri-La again and took out a drop of blood, which dripped onto the outer layer of the Eye of Shangri-La.

Naturally, he does not have pure blood.However, the previous Zi Lin clearly perfectly met the definition of a pure person.

Whether physically or mentally, that girl is as pure as a virgin.It was because her mother had instilled too many unhealthy thoughts.

After the sealed box was opened, a lotus-shaped container shining with strange colors appeared in front of him.

The container is like a special bowl, which contains a diamond-shaped gem and a handful of clear liquid.

These liquids are the fountain of eternal life.It is also the key to resurrecting the Dragon Emperor.

Lu Xiao took off the Fountain of Eternal Life and slowly poured it onto the Dragon Emperor's terracotta warriors and horses.

The spring water quickly disappeared after contacting the other party's body.At the same time, a slight cracking sound was heard.

If you look carefully, you can see that countless tiny cracks are appearing on the terracotta warriors and horses in front of you.The cracks expanded rapidly, and then collapsed completely, revealing the dragon emperor's ceramic body inside.

He was resurrected, but not fully.The body is still in a state similar to pottery.Just being able to move freely.If you want to completely restore your physical body, you need more fountains of eternal life.

If you want to find more fountains of eternal life, you need to go to the Snowy Mountains and find the temple in the movie.

But right now, the most important thing is to deal with the resurrected Dragon Emperor in front of him.You know, whether in history or in the movie, this person is not an easy person to get along with.
