Chapter 1644: A Lifetime Together - 52
press Dowager's decree reached the Fourth Prince's Mansion, and Feng Lingxi was cleared of being the culprit who poisoned the previous emperor. The real culprit was Shen Shangshu, and all the blame fe...A venerable elder like him has no right to rest here, even in death. He must not disturb our ancestors.
"That's true, but the Grand Elder has big ambitions and wants to come in no matter what. If he can't get in, he'll truly perform the blood sacrifice as the ancestors said. Xier, you really need to think this through."
Yao Wanting persuaded, saying that no one wanted to disturb the ancestors' sleep. It's just that this great elder is powerful and skilled in martial arts. If he cannot be removed, none of them will have a good life.
Feng Lingxi looked around, "Let's look around and see if our ancestors have any other instructions."
Yǎo Wǎnyíng stood before the stone coffin, “Xī’er, Mama has looked everywhere here. Besides this stone coffin, there is nothing else.”
"This..."
Could it be that Mother wants her to disturb the ancestors' remains But, since these ancestors' bodies are preserved here without decay, why would they need this stone coffin
Feng Lingxi stood before the stone coffin, clenching her fists.
"Xier, let's open it." Yao Wan Ying suggested, noticing Feng Ling Xi's unease in her eyes and soothingly said, "Isn't this what you want"
Feng Lingxi looked at her mother, hesitating for a moment.
She's really acting like a grave robber.
"Mother, isn't this wrong"
"What's wrong"
Yao Wan'ying glanced around. "All the Holy Mothers have been here. The reason they stayed here was because they didn't have enough courage. And since our ancestor placed a stone coffin here, do you think it contains her body"
"Isn't it"
Feng Lingxi had suspicions, but when her mother said this, she also felt doubtful.
“Mother doesn’t know either, but someone as wise as our ancestor, how could she have imprisoned herself in a stone coffin Mother once read in the historical records of our Yao clan ancestors that because she didn't want her appearance to disrupt the world, she returned everything she had created to dust, and for herself, she built a tunnel back to her own time.”
"A time-space tunnel" Feng Lingxi was astonished. Yao Wan'ying nodded, facing Feng Lingxi's astonishment, she didn't feel any doubt at all, and said lightly, "Therefore, mother guessed that this so-called treasure is this time-space tunnel."
Feng Lingxi's eyes darkened. Her mother's words buzzed in her head. She remembered the innkeeper they met, who said someone gave her a pouch, claiming she could return to her own time. Could this Daoist be a descendant of an ancestor, knowing when these temporal tunnels appeared
"Xier"
Yao Wan Ying cried out, Feng Ling Xi came back to her senses and looked at her mother's worried eyes. She softly said, "Mother, I'm fine, just shocked. I didn't expect my ancestors to have such abilities."
"Our ancestors were extraordinary, there's no doubt about it. Otherwise, how could they have founded the Yao Clan and created such marvelous artifacts like the Zixing"
Feng Lingxi hurriedly took the Zi Xing from her neck and gave it to her mother, "Mother, if this Zi Xing doesn't have Bai Liuli, what use would it be"
Yao Wan-ying took a look at Zi Xing, then put it down.
"That's hard to say, it's not being used now anyway, just keep it."
Wind Ling's eyes were downcast, her gaze once again fell upon the stone coffin. Could the time-space tunnel be beneath this very coffin
If it really is down here, then the treasure the Grand Elder wants should be this.
"Mother, why don't we open it up and take a look Just as you said, there might not be an ancestor's body inside this coffin. " It's been a thousand years, who knows what secrets might be hidden within Maybe there's even an entrance to a time tunnel in here.
Yao Wanying glanced at the stone coffin above and said to Feng Lingxi, "My mother had a serious look at this stone coffin last time. It has a mechanism, whether it can be opened is still unknown. However, my mother, like you, is very interested in this stone coffin and wants to open it to see what's inside."
Feng Lingxi responded with a nod, and Yao Wan'ying began to study the stone coffin. Feng Lingxi watched as well, but she couldn't see anything special about the carvings on its surface. She could tell that they were exquisitely crafted and that the patterns were very ancient.
"These patterns are the same as those on the map fragments your mother gave you. If I'm not mistaken, the drawings on this coffin are part of the treasure map we need to piece together."
"How did Mother know"
Feng Lingxi hastily took out the map fragment from her bosom and laid it on the ground. She compared the patterns, but couldn't see anything similar.
"Xi'er, look."
Yao WanYing casually picked up a piece of parchment and placed it on the pattern of the stone coffin, comparing them. Feng LingXi looked at the pattern on top, and it was indeed exactly the same.
"Mom, you're so amazing! There are so many patterns here, and you found them all at once."
Facing Feng Lingxi's praise, Yao Wan Ying just said faintly, "Xier, the pattern painted on this stone coffin is a map of this underground palace. The positions shown on it are the main locations of this underground palace, and there are also the positions of the stone coffins here. We just need to find them and open them."
Feng Lingxi, upon hearing Yao Wan Ying's words, felt quite baffled. However, seeing her mother's determined search, she couldn't help but re-evaluate her mother with newfound respect.
"Here."
In less than a cup of tea's time, Yao WanYing found the stone coffin and the mechanism on top. She was so fast that Feng LingXi was amazed.
Had she not witnessed it with her own eyes, she truly couldn't have believed that her mother possessed such extraordinary abilities.
"This must be the mechanism of this stone coffin."
Yao Wan'ying pointed to a cylindrical protrusion on the back of the stone coffin, placing her hand on top and reminding Feng Lingxi.
"Xi'er, you retreat a bit."
"Mother, be careful."
Feng Lingxi only felt her own heart tighten with her mother's every move. What was this It would soon be revealed before them. Feng Lingxi hoped it was the same as they thought, an entrance to a time tunnel.
Yao Wan'ying responded, pressing down. The stone coffin let out a dull sound, and the whole thing rose from the ground. Feng Lingxi jumped back in fright, swallowing hard. The stone coffin rose about half a meter before stopping.
Yaowan stood up and looked at the opened stone coffin in front of her. A "卍" character was painted on it. Feng Lingxi saw this character again and hurriedly asked, "Mother, how could there be this "卍" character here"
"This is the key to opening it."
Yao Wan'ying took out a jade pendant from her neck, and this jade pendant was a 'swastika'. Feng Lingxi saw the jade pendant in shock and couldn't speak. How could her mother have this jade pendant
She still remembers that after she knew her identity as the Saintess of Yao Clan, she was chased by countless black-clad men with "卍" tattoos countless times. Now that this jade pendant is on her mother's body, does it mean that the mastermind behind these black-clad men is her mother
Feng Lingxi thought about this, the whole person fell into struggle, looking at her mother's skilled movements, Feng Lingxi's heart suddenly became uneasy.ther emperor, how can I possibly ignore you."Looking into his gentle eyes, Feng Lingxi smiled back, "How are your parents""Very well, just let me take good care of you before you leave. Let me get eve...
