Chapter 129 Chapter 129, this trip is really taking off! midnight. The backyard of Manqingyuan. Shangguan Long, leader of the Luoyang Gang, returned to his backyard residence leaning on his iconic dragon-headed cane. The moment he pushed open the door, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw a sky full of dazzling sword lights like a star rain, covering his head. The blazing sword light blurred his vision, and the sharp sword energy hit his face painfully. Shangguan Long's senses were in chaos, and he could only rely on the Qi sensation. He shouted loudly, and summoned up his supernatural power to smash the dragon-headed crutch in his hand, which was made of steel and weighed more than 100 kilograms, towards the strongest part of the sword light. Just as he was about to launch a full-strength attack that was enough to blast the foot-thick stone tablet into powder, the sword lights in the sky suddenly converged and instantly merged into a cold light, drawing an extremely agile arc, and lightly circled around his dragon-headed crutch like a spirit snake, and gently touched his heart. puff! Shangguan Long felt a chill in his chest, but there was no pain as if a sword was piercing his heart. He just felt as if he had been punched in the heart. His whole body shook and he staggered backwards involuntarily until his heels touched the door threshold, smashing the thick hardwood door to pieces before he could barely stop. He did not bother to check the wound on his chest. He looked inside the house the first time and saw that candlelight had been lit in the house at some point. A young man in white was sitting on the main seat in the hall, sipping tea leisurely from a cup. Another beautiful girl, also dressed in white, with familiar features, was standing beside the young man in white, slowly sheathing her sword. Seeing these two, Shangguan Long smiled bitterly, put down his steel staff, and bowed, saying: "Shangguan Long pays respect to Master Ouyang and Princess Dongming."
Taking the opportunity of bowing, he took a look at the place where the sword pierced his chest. He saw that although the clothes were torn where the sword pierced his chest, there was only a small red dot on the skin of his heart, and there was a bruise around the red dot. Being able to use a sharp sword to produce such an effect as a heavy punch, and having such meticulous and flexible control, made Shangguan Long feel a chill in his heart, and secretly sighed that there is no false reputation. This Princess Dongming is indeed a peerless swordsman who can kill Bian Bufu instantly with one sword. The young people are truly to be feared. "Boss Shangguan, do you recognize us?" Ouyang Feng said calmly after taking a sip of tea. "You two are now very famous. Even if I have never seen you, after being hit by the sword of the princess, I can guess your identities." "It's good that you recognize us. Then I don't have to waste my words." Ouyang Feng put the teacup on the table, looked at Shangguan Long, and asked: "Can the Heshi Bi be found in Luoyang?" Shangguan Long shook his head: "Although there were rumors a few months ago that the Heshi Bi would appear in Luoyang, according to the information I have obtained, Cihang Jingzhai has not yet sent the Heshi Bi to Luoyang, and it is unknown when the Heshi Bi will actually be delivered." Ouyang Feng frowned and asked: "Do you know the current whereabouts of the Heshi Bi?" Shangguan Long said helplessly: "This is not something I can find out." Ouyang Feng nodded in understanding and said: "That's right. Although Gang Leader Shangguan is the chief intelligence officer of the Yin Gui Sect in the north, it is not easy to find out the specific movements of Cihang Jingzhai." Shangguan Long bowed and said: "Thank you for your understanding, Master Ouyang." Ouyang Feng said again: "I can't find out the specific information about the Heshi Bi, but do you know anything about the Great Ming Zun Sect?" His words sounded very casual, but Shangguan Long had something on his mind. He was secretly shocked when he heard this. He remained expressionless and looked puzzled: "The Great Ming Religion? Isn't it said to have originated from Persia and only spread in the Huihe area of the Western Regions? There is no sign of the spread of the Great Ming Religion in the Central Plains. May I ask what is the purpose of Mr. Ouyang's inquiries about the Great Ming Religion?" Ouyang Feng did not answer but asked: "From what Gang Leader Shangguan said, it seems that he doesn't know the information about the Great Ming Sect?" Shangguan Long looked ashamed: "I was ordered to find out the movements of various forces in the north. I know a lot about the various clans, gangs, and rebel forces. I even got some information about the Buddhist forces. But this Great Ming Sect... Mr. Ouyang, please forgive me, I really haven't found any information about this sect."
"What a pity." Ouyang Feng remained calm and shook his head with regret: "I didn't expect that even Gang Leader Shangguan didn't know the information about the Daming Zun Sect. This sect is indeed extremely mysterious." Seeing that he seemed to have given up asking, Shangguan Long secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but said sincerely: "Since Master Ouyang is interested in the Great Ming Sect, I will allocate some manpower and resources to gather intelligence on this sect. If I gain any information, I will report it to you immediately." "In that case, I'll trouble you, Master Shangguan. We will go to Chang'an and take our leave now." Ouyang Feng stood up, nodded slightly to Shangguan Long, and walked out the door with Shan Wanjing. Shangguan Long quickly bowed and said, "Have a safe journey, both of you." Before leaving, Ouyang Feng asked casually: "By the way, I wonder if Dugu Feng of the Dugu Clan is in Luoyang recently?" Shangguan Long replied: "Dugu Feng left Luoyang a month ago. This rising star of the Dugu clan, who is ranked as one of the 'Four Great Young Masters' along with the princess, is said to love to challenge others to fight. He left Luoyang, probably to find another master to challenge." "Then we came at an unfortunate time..." Ouyang Feng nodded, without saying anything more, and left with Shan Wanjing. It was not until the two men disappeared into the night that Shangguan Long straightened up completely. He leaned on his crutches and looked in the direction where the two men disappeared, with worry in his eyes. Ouyang Feng is a man of great martial arts skills, mysterious background, and a rather reckless style of doing things. It is not good news that one's own sect is being targeted by such a person. …… "Sir, why don't you capture Shangguan Long and torture him?" "This kind of person who dares to come to the Yin Gui Sect as an undercover must be extremely fanatical and stubborn in his beliefs. I'm afraid that no amount of torture will be able to pry open his mouth." "Then how do we find the Great Ming Zunjiao?" "No rush. It doesn't matter if you can't get any information for the time being. Just be patient and you will get a chance sooner or later." "The Heshi Bi is not in Luoyang, and I haven't heard any news about the Great Ming Sect. Dugu Feng is also not in Luoyang recently, so I can't challenge her... This trip to Luoyang is really a wasted trip." "How can one live in this world and do everything as one wishes? Besides, this trip is not in vain. Luoyang is an unprecedented and unparalleled prosperous city. There is also the imperial garden 'Shanglin Garden' with a circumference of 200 miles, which is said to correspond to the Yaochi in the sky. Even if it is just for sightseeing, this trip is worth it." Shan Wanjing's tone was pleasantly surprised: "So we can still travel in Luoyang for a while, and don't have to rush to Chang'an?" "Yes. Let's stay in Luoyang for another three days, and then set off for Chang'an after three days." …… Next, the two of them spent three days touring Luoyang and fully appreciate the prosperity of the Eastern Capital before heading west to Chang'an. At that time, the Li clan had not yet started an uprising, Chang'an was still under the control of the Sui court, and the order in the city was also relatively good. The point is that Chang'an has not yet become the focus of attention of various forces. The main forces of the major clans are not in Chang'an, and the various factions of the Demon Sect that are plotting the "Evil Emperor's Relics" have not yet focused on Chang'an, which makes it easier for Ouyang Feng to collect Yang Gong's treasure. On the first day of arriving in Chang'an, Ouyang Feng and Shan Wanjing went to Yuema Bridge to check it out. The reason why it is impossible to find Yang Gong's treasure house by just knowing the location of "Chang'an Yuema Bridge" is because Yuema Bridge is only the opening point of the entrance mechanism, and the entrance to the treasure house is not at Yuema Bridge, but in a well in a villa called "Xijiyuan" of the Dugu clan. You must first activate the mechanism at Yuema Bridge, wait for a while, and then run to the "Xijiyuan" of the Dugu clan to find the well before you can truly find the entrance to the treasure house.
Ouyang Feng had seen the entire set of design drawings of Yang Gong's treasury, and had them copied into the Tongtian Baojian. He also received a detailed explanation from Lu Miaozi, and was already familiar with the secret passages and mechanisms of the treasury. During the day, he pretended to visit the site to see the scenery, and at night he went to Yuema Bridge with Shan Wanjing and opened the mechanism according to the method explained by Lu Miaozi. After the mechanism was activated, the river water under the bridge began to fluctuate slightly. Ouyang Feng knew that this was because the mechanism at the bottom of the river was activated and was introducing water flow. With the force of the water flow, the entrance to the water well on the Xijiyuan side of the Dugu Valve was opened. The opening time will last for a full day and night. Since they couldn't enter the treasure house tonight, Ouyang Feng and the other man didn't stay outside and returned to the inn where they were staying to rest. The next night. Ouyang Feng and Shan Wanjing sneaked into the Xiji Garden of the Dugu clan, found the well, and jumped into the well without hesitation. After diving to the bottom of the water, they found a stone brick that was slightly raised about an inch on the wall at the bottom of the well. With one hand pressing down on the stone brick, the slight creaking sound of the mechanism starting up immediately echoed in the narrow well. Shan Wanjing held her breath, her face tense, and she looked up at the wellhead with burning eyes, afraid that the noise would be heard by others. Ouyang Feng, however, was calm and didn't take it seriously. The sound of the mechanism sounds harsh inside the well, but it is only because the space at the bottom of the well is small and circular, which has a strong echo effect. In fact, this sound may not be heard at the wellhead, let alone outside the well. Soon, the sound of the mechanism stopped, and a hole appeared on the wall of the well, only wide enough for one person to pass through. Shan Wanjing breathed a sigh of relief and volunteered to go in first. Ouyang Feng let her in, and only after she entered did he go into the cave. Behind the cave entrance is a narrow corridor with walls paved with granite. It slopes upward for about five meters and then turns sharply downward. The slope is quite steep. After walking down for a while, the corridor came to an end and there was a dead end ahead. "Sir, there is no road ahead." Shan Wanjing said nervously. "No hurry." Ouyang Feng said calmly: "There is still a mechanism here." And there is more than one. There are two mechanisms here. One of them is real. Pressing it will open the portal to the treasure house. The other one, pressing it will lead you into a deadly trap. Ouyang Feng treated Lu Miaozi with sincerity, so Lu Miaozi certainly would not cheat him. He explained to him clearly the true and false mechanisms. At this time, he did not need to make choices. He directly found the real mechanism and pressed it lightly. Another sound of the mechanism was heard, and the stone wall of the corridor on one side sank, revealing a square hole. The two of them entered the square cave one after another and came to a spacious granite corridor. At the end of the corridor was a pair of steel doors, each of which was inlaid with three luminous pearls emitting a hazy green light. "These six night-shining pearls alone are worth a fortune!" Shan Wanjing said in a low voice, her eyes full of excitement at the successful expedition and the discovery of treasure. "Don't get too excited, this is just the beginning." Ouyang Feng said with a smile: "Yang Su was known to be rich enough to rival a country. This treasure house contains most of Yang Su's wealth. If any of the feudal lords in the world could obtain this treasure house, it would probably be able to support their military pay for one or two years." The army is a money-eating beast, especially now in the midst of war. One can imagine how staggering the wealth must be to support the army's wages for one or two years during the war. And the treasury contains not only wealth, but also high-quality weapons enough to arm tens of thousands of people. This batch of weapons was also what Ouyang Feng was determined to obtain - swords, guns, axes and spears were easy to get, but weapons like strong bows and iron armor could not be bought even if you had money. Next, Ouyang Feng took Shan Wanjing and used the methods taught by Lu Miaozi to avoid various traps, open the real mechanism, and first enter the outer fake warehouse.
There were only fifteen boxes of jewelry in the fake warehouse. Although all the jewelry was of high quality, it could only make one person the richest man in a city or a place, and was far from being worthy of being called "the richest man in the enemy country." But no matter how small a mosquito leg is, it is still meat - not to mention that wealth comparable to that of the richest man in a city or a region is definitely not considered a mosquito leg. Therefore, Ouyang Feng did not hesitate to put them all into the talisman. After emptying the fake vault, Ouyang Feng continued to lead Shan Wanjing to open the secret passage mechanisms leading to the main room of the treasury one by one. After a busy period, they finally opened the passage and entered the main chamber of the treasury. After activating the mechanism of the real treasury in the main chamber, they successfully entered the real Yang Gong treasury. The real Yang Gong Treasure House has a total of four underground warehouses. One of the warehouses stored hard currency, mainly gold, in an amount that was difficult to calculate. The other three warehouses were filled with military equipment, including more than 3,000 strong bows and countless arrows. There were also tens of thousands of other weapons such as swords, spears, axes, and halberds. There are also 6,000 sets of Liangdang iron armor and 300 sets of Ming Guang armor - Yang Su even disdained to hide leather armor in the treasury, all the armor he hid were iron armor! Moreover, each type of weapon and armor is of top-notch quality, and is in no way inferior to the weapons meticulously crafted by the Dongming Sect. After roughly counting the reserves in the four warehouses, Shan Wanjing was shocked and murmured: "Wealthy enough to rival a country... Today I finally understand what 'wealthy enough to rival a country' means..." Ouyang Feng was a little dumbfounded, and secretly sighed: "This wave is really taking off. If we bring back the stuff, not only can all the wolf riders wear double-layer iron armor, but the elite auxiliary soldiers can also wear a piece of iron armor. There are also 300 iron soldiers wearing Mingguang armor... In this way, we can send troops to Xixia next year." There are also some minor annoyances: There are so many things, the storage talisman can’t hold them all! There were tens of thousands of large wooden boxes containing treasures and weapons. Ouyang Feng's storage talisman already contained a lot of things, including 100,000 taels of gold, 300 pieces of jewels, gifts from Madam Dongming and Shan Wanjing, armor and weapons captured from defeating rebels and bandits, two batches of grain purchased with the help of Lianxing, and various sundries. Having said that, even if these things were not contained, even if the Storage Talisman had a huge space of 520 cubic meters, it would not be able to hold these tens of thousands of large wooden boxes. and so…… I had to go back to the main world first, clear out the storage talisman, then borrow Lin Chaoying's storage talisman and move them in batches. Before that, we must first get the "Evil Emperor's Relics". (End of this chapter)
