Chapter 1261: A Mass Grave

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Even after Da Bao and Little Treasure had followed Jiang He in, the others still hadn’t reacted. After all this time, this young man was actually more powerful than this master of feng shui?

At this moment, even Ye Xie didn’t expect that this son, who was the Black Emperor’s son, would actually learn feng shui. This could be considered miscellaneous studies, yet he actually indulged him so much. Moreover, from the looks of it, that person just now seemed to be extremely respectful towards him. It seemed like he really had some real material.

“That is the famous Master Jiang He, yet he is actually extremely respectful toward Yan Anan and the others.”

Tang Jiajia’s words were obviously sour, but no one felt that there was a problem with her words, because everyone was curious at this moment.

“Isn’t that right? I didn’t expect that this archaeology would actually invite a feng shui master. Looks like we have a lot to learn. I’m so excited.”

“Yeah, yeah, I’m so excited.”

At this moment, it wasn’t just Da Bao’s university. The professors and assistants from the other three schools that had followed them were also excited.

Da Bao and Little Treasure had already followed Jiang He into the sealed base. After entering the base, they all felt waves of coldness at the same time.

Little Treasure frowned and turned to look at Jiang He.

“Why is there such a heavy yin qi? Shouldn’t this be the tomb of the emperor?”

“It is said that the excavator accidentally dug out a hole next to it. It is a mass grave for the sins of the Japanese during the previous war.”

“Mass grave?”

If it was a mass grave, then it could really explain why the army was sent out. Not only that, the area within a hundred miles had to be cleared of people.

“Let me explain. This mass grave was dug two days ago. At that time, an eminent monk was also invited to recite the scriptures, but it was of no use.”

“How big is this mass grave?”

Little Treasure frowned and asked the colonel. Although this colonel might not have much trust in Little Treasure, he knew that someone who even Jiang He admired was definitely not a simple person. Moreover, he was fortunate enough to witness Jiang He’s ability back then. Otherwise, how could military officers like them believe in such feudal superstitions?

“A real mass grave, more than ten thousand people.”

This time, even Jiang He knew that things were not going well. They, as elderly people, had the deepest impression of that year. Even now, when Jiang He saw Japanese people, he did not have a good expression.

There were at least 10,000 people here. One could imagine how deep this sin was for their country back then.

“That’s not right. Did the eminent monk invite 49 people back then?”

“It was indeed 49 people. They all came in accordance with the method of discovering mass graves in the past. However, what we did not expect this time was that this mass grave was different from the others.”

“Different?”

The colonel couldn’t help but gnash his teeth when he said this. He looked at them and said, “D*mn Japanese. There is a layer of animal corpses under the human bones. Not only that, there is also a black wooden stake. The patterns carved on it are extremely strange.”

“Ghost Stake?”

Jiang He looked at Little Treasure and asked with some uncertainty.

Little Treasure nodded. He didn’t expect that this island country had such an expert back then. They actually used tens of thousands of people to set up such a big trap. This Ghost Stake used tens of thousands of animals and human blood as a sacrifice… As long as the thing that had been buried for more than 49 years was destroyed, not only would the area within a hundred miles be reduced to nothingness, it would also be continuously affected. It was definitely a great weapon that would kill all the people and animals around it. The power of this was not weaker than the Yin Dragon that he had seen back then.

It was even more sinister.

“Crown Prince, you didn’t use the Dragon Whipping Whip. This?”

“I’ll go and take a look. What time is it now?”

“It’s almost noon.”

“Just in time. It’s the heaviest time in the afternoon. It’s best to go now. Da Bao, you –”

“You what? I’ll go with you. I won’t leave you.”

“Colonel, settle those professors and students down. It’s already like this. I don’t know why you still let these students in.”

“We didn’t know that this mass grave was so powerful. We only realized that something was wrong when all the livestock in the nearest village died. A few more people died one after another. So, by the time we realized that something was wrong, those professors and students had already arrived.”

“Find a way to let them go first. There’s still no rush to dig the ancient tomb next to it. This mass grave isn’t a joke.”

Little Treasure made the decision after he left. The colonel immediately nodded and led the others to the temporary base.

Because of the excavation of the ancient tomb, preparations had been made long ago with a lot of money. Rows of container houses had long been built at the foot of the mountain, and the temporary command base had also been built at this place.

..

“Isn’t this a joke? Tell those professors that this place is not a joke. If they don’t go back, they’ll lose their lives and no one will be responsible.”

The commander-in-chief stood in front of the command post and listened to the colonel’s report. These old scholars were so troublesome that they would even give up their lives just to see.

“They have already said that they are willing to sign the life and death contract, but they have agreed to let their assistants leave. Of course, those who are willing to stay must sign the life and death contract.”

The commander-in-chief was furious. Seeing that the colonel wanted to listen to Jiang He’s opinion, he knew that the old scholars in this country were very old-fashioned. Why don’t they let Master Jiang try?

“Master Jiang? Why don’t you give it a try?”

“No need. If they want to stay, then stay. These people have some experience. At critical moments, they are more useful than your soldiers. As for the assistants, they must be experienced. If they are not experienced, then let them leave. Of course, the death waiver must be signed.”

The commander-in-chief did not expect this young man to make such a decision. Of course, he also knew that his identity was not simple. It was said that he was a master who was even more powerful than Jiang He. Although he had not seen how powerful this kid was with his own eyes… It seemed that he was definitely not a simple person.

Sure enough, once Jiang He heard his words, he did not say anything and immediately nodded. The colonel was very tactful and immediately went forward to inform him.

“Master Jiang, your two assistants also want to go together?”

“Of course, don’t bother about them. They can protect themselves.”

Hearing this, no one said anything. After all, Jiang He’s level was there. How could his assistants be weak? When they left the house, even Little Treasure couldn’t help but glance at the two assistants. They looked ordinary and didn’t have any outstanding looks. They didn’t talk much, but they looked very steady, especially that man. With his physique, one could tell that he was a martial artist. Little Treasure didn’t say anything since he was able to be Jiang He’s assistant in such a relaxed state.

When everyone was ready to go to the mass grave to investigate, the number of people waiting outside had already changed from more than ten to four. It just so happened that these four schools were going to fight. Of course… Including Ye Xie.
