Once again, a convoy of black jeeps mixed with a white van drove on the highway.
The destination was Pingxia's beach.
The place was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the surging sea water kept washing up on the beach.
The sea breeze that blew in his face had a fishy and salty smell. It was quite refreshing. If he wasn't here to look for the Tomb of the King of the South Sea, this place would be quite suitable for a vacation.
Wu Sizhen sat lazily on the front of the car and looked at the sun that was about to sink into the sea. As the waves rolled, the sun reflected on the sea was shattered.
Wu Erbai took out an old photo and compared it to the scenery in front of him.
"This is the place."
Wu Sizhen turned around and saw Mu Xuehai being dragged out of the car and pushed toward the beach.
Obviously, Mu Xuehai was quite afraid of the tidal flat in front of him. His whole body trembled and he kept shrinking back, not sure if he could go forward. Then, a few people worked together to drag him to the front of the tidal flat.
"They died here!"
Mu Xuehai became agitated. He trembled as he looked into the distance and kept muttering.
"The emperor made a paper figurine with sesame as its eyes. If the sesame is fried, the paper figurine can't be seen.”
Suddenly, he shouted at the sea as if he was possessed,
"Mute Emperor! The mute emperor was below! Mute Emperor!"
Wu Tianzhen and the others also came to Wu Erbai's side and asked,
"What was he shouting about?"
"Mute Emperor, Mu Xuehai is reacting to stress. This place should have left a deep impression on him.”
Wu Sizhen clearly knew about the mute emperor, so he could translate Mu Xuehai's unclear shout.
"Alright, pull him back!"
Wu Erbai waved at the people not far away and shouted. A few of his subordinates dragged Mu Xuehai back from the beach.
"He kept talking about the mute emperor. Second brother, aren't you going to explain it to him?”
Wu Sizhen sat on the front of the car with a straight face. He was quite familiar with the story of the mute emperor, but he did not want to snatch the job of explaining to others. He felt tired.
Wu Erbai glanced at him. From his lack of interest, it was obvious that Wu Sizhen already knew the story. However, from Wu Tian's expression, it was obvious that he did not collude with this information. Wu Erbai cleared his throat and said,
"Pingxia used to be called Sea Cloud Island. There was a mute who lived on the island. He liked to make paper soldiers and paper horses and used them as his own army, so the people on the island called him the mute emperor.”
"But the mute emperor's wife died during childbirth, leaving behind a very beautiful daughter. The daughter slowly grew up, and the two of them depended on each other on the island. Unfortunately, the emperor at that time took a fancy to the mute's daughter and sent troops to snatch her away.”
" And Mute could only watch helplessly as his daughter was snatched away. He had no choice but to wash his face in tears by the seaside every day. After a clap of thunder, the Thunder God rode on the clouds and arrived in front of Mute. Mute begged the Thunder God to help him bring his daughter back. The Thunder God was moved by Mute's grief and true feelings and decided to help him get his daughter back.”
This kind of thing sounded like a legend, but it was hard to tell if it was true. After all, the underground palace of the King of South Sea was about to be discovered. When would the Thunder God become a mortal in front of me? Wu Sizhen listened absent-mindedly.
" After the first thunder, sea cockroaches appeared everywhere in the emperor's country to attack his subjects, but the emperor was indifferent to it. After the second thunder, all the shells on the seashore crawled to their hidden injuries. The emperor's army suffered heavy casualties, and Mute was forced to the seashore.”
" After the third thunderclap, all the paper men and paper horses were revived. Mute rescued his daughter, but the Emperor still refused to give up and continued to chase after her. In the end, Mute had no choice but to fold a paper boat and push his daughter out into the sea. After the last thunderclap, his daughter turned into a monster called the 'Aigao Gongzhu' and finally killed the Emperor.”
While Wu Erbai was explaining, the little brother, Wang Yueban, and the others gradually set up the tent behind them. Wu Erbai explained to Wu Tianzhen while walking into the tent.
The hood of the car under Wu Sizhen's butt was still warm, making him a little reluctant to move. However, he couldn't stay here. He looked at the setting sun regretfully and rolled out of the car.
As soon as he landed, he heard a familiar sweet voice.
Congratulations to the host for arriving near the South Sea King's underground palace. Please arrive at the tomb at 9 am tomorrow to clock in.
Wu Sizhen almost fell over when he heard this. No matter how he looked at it, these people might go up and down the tomb tonight.
However, it was not a big deal. These people had been busy all day. At night, they should be able to be persuaded to rest.
Wu Sizhen followed behind Wu Erbai, his mind spinning rapidly.
" At this point, Mute became very powerful. He fought everywhere, collected his wealth, and became a king. Later, in order to commemorate Mute, the locals called him the King of the South Sea and his daughter Princess Mute. However, this ancient country suddenly disappeared from history.”
The few of them sat down in the tent. Wu Erbai had also reached the end of his explanation of the mute emperor's story.
It had to be said that Wu Erbai's cadence was very suitable for a podium. There would probably be a lot of audience members.
"So that's how the mute emperor Mu Xuehai mentioned came about.”
Wu Tianzhen said thoughtfully.
"But so far, we haven't found the specific location of the underground palace of King of South Sea. Judging from Mu Xuehai's reaction, we should have found the right place.”
Just as Wu Erbai finished speaking, Wang Yueban's grumbling voice came from outside the door.
"I say, this second uncle is really something. He really treats me like logistics.”
Wang Yueban went into the tent behind her little brother. When she raised her head, she saw Wu Erbai's half-smiling face.
"Yo, Second Uncle, you're here. Where's the vest? The few of us are too busy.”
"He went to pick up an expert."
Wang Yueban laughed when he heard that."
"What expert? The few of us aren't experts. Isn't Fourth Uncle an expert here?”
Wu Erbai seemed to be trying to find something from the stack of documents on the table. Wu Sizhen leaned back in his chair and shook the documents in his hand.
"It's with me, Second Brother."
Wu Erbai looked up at the opened document and nodded.
"When did you sneak out? Alright, take a good look.”
After saying that, Wu Erbai opened the tent and walked out. The few of them went to Wu Sizhen's side to look at the information in his hand. Wang Yueban sighed as soon as she saw the face on it.
"It's this grandson!"
