Pingxia.
A large group of people had already arrived at the beach.
This was a large tidal flat. Facing the setting sun, golden light scattered on the tidal flat.
The waves surged.
"Second Uncle."
Ian handed a picture to Wu Erbai.
San Shu, Yang Daguang, and Chen Wenjin were standing on the beach in front of them.
"This is it."
The few of them faced the afterglow of the setting sun and looked at the land that might be the underground palace of King Nan Hai.
Mu Xuehai was forced to come to this beach. When he saw this familiar place, he immediately cried out in fear.
"We can't go down."
"Hurry up."
"They died here."
Mu Xuehai said.
Wu Xie said.
"He looks scared,"
Ian followed.
"It seems that we have found the right place. This is the underground palace that the 044 archaeological team found.”
Mu Xuehai spoke eloquently as if he was saying something important. Ian leaned forward and listened carefully.
" The emperor made a paper figurine with sesame seeds as eyes. The sesame seeds were fried, so the paper figurine couldn't be seen. The mute emperor, ah, the mute emperor…"
Wu Xie was puzzled. What was a mute emperor?
"What is he talking about?"
Mute Emperor?
Ian immediately pulled out all the records in his mind regarding the mute emperor. This might be a breakthrough.
"A legend of the mute emperor. Mu Xuehai started to recite these words when he was near the beach. It was probably related to his previous experience.”
Looking at Mu Xuehai, he probably couldn't say anything.
"Erjing, pull him over."
Wu Er Bai saw that Ian was quite capable. He knew something when he heard the mute emperor's name.
"Little brother Ian, tell me about the legend of the mute emperor.”
Accompanied by the sound of the waves, Ian quietly recounted the legend recorded in the ancient book.
"Legend has it that Ping Xia used to be called Beach Island. There was a mute living on the island. He liked to fold paper and toed horses as his army, so the people on the island called him the mute emperor.”
"When the mute emperor's wife was giving birth, she died due to a difficult labor. She left behind a very beautiful daughter. The daughter slowly grew up, and the two of them depended on each other.”
Lord Fatty interrupted.
"Oh my, this story is so old-fashioned. It's like listening to a fairy tale.”
Wu Er Bai just turned his head and gave Lord Fatty a fright.
"What a pity. The good times didn't last long. At that time, the emperor had taken a fancy to the mute emperor's daughter, so he sent troops to snatch her away. Mute could only watch helplessly as his daughter was snatched away.”
When Ian said this, he suddenly thought of the contents of the mural in the Yang family's ancestral hall. It matched perfectly. This story should be true.
"The mute emperor could only sit by the sea and wash his face with tears. At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder kept rumbling. The legendary Thunder God came to Mute on a cloud. Mute begged the Thunder God to save his daughter. The Thunder God was moved by Mute's sadness and true feelings and decided to help him get his daughter back.”
It was really strange.
"The following information is the key. After a loud clap of thunder, sea cockroaches appeared everywhere in the emperor's country, attacking his subjects, but the emperor was indifferent. After another clap of thunder, all the shells on the beach climbed to the shore. The emperor's army suffered heavy casualties. But this mute was also forced to the seaside.”
Everyone present was fascinated by the story.
" After the third thunderclap, all the paper men and paper horses revived Mute and finally saved his daughter. However, the Emperor still did not give up on the chase. Mute had no choice but to fold a paper boat and push his daughter into the depths of the sea. After the final thunderclap, his daughter became a monster called the Begging Together.”
"The emperor was finally killed. Mute became powerful and went on a campaign to become a king who ruled over a region. The local residents called him the King of the South Sea in memory of this mute. However, this kingdom disappeared from the annals of history.”
When Lord Fatty heard this story, he didn't quite believe it.
"This story is not bad, but why doesn't it sound so believable? The mute emperor that Mu Xuehai mentioned just now, so this was how he came about.”
Ian nodded.
"The story recorded in the ancient book is somewhat believable, and it matches the content we saw on the mural. Now, he could confirm that this mural came from the underground palace. We have found the right location for the beach. However, it would still take some effort to find the exact location of the underground palace.”
Of course, Ian had the ability to find the exact location on his own.
Just as he was about to say that Wu Er Bai seemed to have already made arrangements.
Wu Er Bai's subordinates had already taken this opportunity to set up the tent and all kinds of equipment.
Everyone walked into the shed.
"I've invited an expert, and I've already asked my subordinates to pick him up. He can help us find the exact location of King Nan Hai's underground palace.”
Ian and the others looked at each other.
Now that they had been arranged clearly, Wu Er Bai would definitely not let them go so easily.
He couldn't just sit back and wait for death. Ian felt that he had to think of a way.
