Chapter 539 "Zombies"
Chapter 539 "Zombies"
As we walked along, the originally crowded road was now empty, with only a few traces on the ground proving that something had existed at this location.
In order to save time, the two of them stopped wandering around and teleported directly to the vicinity of the mausoleum.
This palace is even more luxurious than the imperial palace. The entire palace is made of gold, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as magnificent.
"The country this dog emperor lives in seems to be quite rich." Fu Ling couldn't help but complain.
"There are only two possibilities. Either they are rich, or they have plundered the people's wealth to fill the national treasury." Lu Beichen clenched his fists slightly, then he remembered that his other hand was holding his wife's hand. He quickly let go and asked with a worried look on his face.
"Wife, did I hurt you? Sorry, I was just thinking about something."
"How can you say how strong you are? I'm not a porcelain doll. How can I get hurt so easily? I understand how you feel. Don't be angry. This has become history. Even if we want to do something, we don't know where to start. Look at it more positively. We still have a long way to go." After saying that, she gently squeezed his hand.
Holding Lu Beichen's hand, she approached the palace gate and said fiercely, "Let's go and grind the damn emperor to ashes!"
"Wife, those are all cultural relics..." Lu Beichen shook his head.
"Oh, I was just joking. Don't worry, if he hasn't turned into ashes, he will have his own place when archaeologists come in to investigate." The reason she said this was to make Lu Beichen feel better and not have to carry such a heavy burden. After all, it was just history and had long become the past.
"Thank you, my wife! It's great to have you around." How could he not see that his wife cared about him? He quickly put aside his negative emotions and his expression returned to its original state...
"Wife, please stay away!" The door of the golden palace was closed tightly, fearing that some monster would come out and hurt her.
Without any pretense, he retreated more than ten meters obediently: "Okay, be careful!"
Seeing that she was at a safe distance, Lu Beichen stepped forward and slowly opened the door.
There was a loud bang, and the door of the palace was slowly pushed open.
The scene inside almost blinded Fu Ling. If he hadn't been wearing a gas mask, his eyes might have been damaged. It was really inhumane...
"Could the emperor be suffering from a serious illness? Why would he live in such a luxurious place after his death? Isn't it too bright?" Isn't it said that ghosts are most afraid of bright things? Then what kind of ghosts are all those on this wall?
The walls were covered with luminous pearls inlaid in round slots. Each pearl was the size of an ostrich egg. Fu Ling counted them carefully with trembling lips. There were exactly 18 of them. She swallowed her saliva at the pearls.
"Honey, is it too late for me to take back what I said before? I'm just an ordinary person. There are eighteen night-shining pearls here. It shouldn't be a problem for me to take two away, right?"
Her eyes never left the Night Pearl from beginning to end, and her eyes were filled with desire for the Night Pearl. She finally understood why people in ancient times liked the Night Pearl so much. This thing was really rare.
The light emitted is soft and not dazzling. One light may not look particularly bright, but it is different when there are more than ten of them. They can clearly illuminate the inside of the hall.
Lu Beichen coughed lightly, opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Ahem! Wife, did you count wrong? There are clearly only 16..."
Fu Ling grinned so widely that his teeth were visible, and after ordering two, he looked at the other things in the hall.
Strangely enough, there was not a speck of dust in the palace, as if someone came to clean it regularly.
The ground was also clean. Except for some obvious footprints where the two people had just left, it could really be said to be spotless.
"What the hell? Why is there no dust here?" Fu Ling asked in confusion.
Lu Beichen shook his head and scraped his hand along the wall. It was also clean. He explained scientifically, "Perhaps it's because this place is sealed. The door was tightly shut, so there's no air circulation inside, so there's no dust. That's the only possibility."
Lu Beichen is no longer the same person he was before. The knowledge he knows from the future is no less than Fu Ling. Even if he travels to the future, he can still thrive.
"Forget it, it's not important. Apart from being an inhuman being, the dog emperor does have good taste. Look at the furnishings here. Although they are luxurious, they are not tacky. Every piece will be priceless in the future." Fu Ling exclaimed.
The walls were covered with various calligraphy and paintings. She had never seen the words on them before, and she had never heard of the names of the authors. Fu Ling was sure that this dynasty was not in the same world as theirs. There were more and more mysteries, and she would always feel uneasy until she figured it out.
Lu Beichen also had the same idea. He had studied the history of five thousand years seriously. Not everyone had an impression of it, but from what he got from Xiaojiu, he knew that there had never been such a dynasty from ancient times to the present.
He was sure that such an ambitious emperor would not place worthless things in his mausoleum. Anything that the emperor would like must be a fine product.
"Husband... I always feel that this place is full of unknown dangers." Fu Ling said solemnly.
"Yeah! I feel that, too."
"I don't know whether it's good or bad to discover this place... I always feel a little uneasy, as if something is going to happen." Fu Ling felt uncomfortable all over at this moment.
At this moment, the door of the side hall was banged by something.
The two had been on guard since they came in. Although it was sudden, they were not panicked.
"Be careful! Something is coming!" Lu Beichen subconsciously protected Fu Ling and kept the danger behind him.
Finally, the side hall door collapsed under the weight, and Fu Ling felt heartbroken. What a waste of money! Those were all gold!
Suddenly, several "monsters" rushed out from there. They cannot be called monsters. They are people, at least before they died... There are both men and women. They have ferocious faces, with fangs exposed in their mouths. Their nails look extremely sharp. Each person has ten gray nails, which is extremely creepy to look at.
Perhaps because they were so old, the material of the clothes was not resistant to oxidation, and they kept falling off their bodies, turning into ashes on the ground, and finally became corpses.
The first time Fu Ling saw these "monsters", the image of zombies appeared in his mind.
These zombies were extremely fast, and they rushed to the two people in just a few breaths.
The two were in invisible state, but these creatures that were neither human nor ghost were able to lock onto them in an instant, which meant that the other party was not using vision to identify the enemy.
Thinking of zombies, Fu Ling immediately guessed the reason.
A female zombie's claws grabbed Fu Ling's face. If she was grabbed, she didn't know whether she would be infected with corpse poison, but she would definitely be disfigured. Although she had the spiritual spring water to treat it, it was painful.
Before she could make any move, Lu Beichen was quick-witted and kicked the female zombie away.
