Chapter 197: The Imperial Treasury (Part II)
Nanrong Yuhong took Wu Luo in, and the guards saluted along the way. After entering the portal, there is a long passage.
The passage is wide, enough for the four-rank war horses to run side by side. On both sides, every three zhang, there is a gate made of white jade inlaid with gold nails. Nan Rong Yuhong explained that these were the treasure troves rented by some big clans of the Half-Demon Clan.
This is only the first floor, down to the second floor, that is, every ten zhang, there is a portal. Those who can rent this layer of treasure trove are at least the royal family. If Nanrong Yuhong is independent in the future, he will be able to rent a room here.
On the third floor, there is only one portal, which is the real royal treasury.
A lonely passage leads to the portal, flanked by eighteen long-handled oil lamps. The portal is quaint, carved out of lapis lazuli, with two closed doors and a huge spiritual inscription carved on the door.
Wu Luo has been taught by the Divine Dragon, and knows all the half-demon spirit texts, this spirit text is the most powerful sealing spirit text of the half-demon clan, and it has even reached the point of peeking into the Heavenly Dao, and it is somewhat possible to achieve an effect similar to "curse". If someone wants to forcibly break this spiritual text, not only will they be strongly counterattacked by the spiritual text, but they are also likely to lose their chances from now on, and they will be unlucky.
On the left side of the portal, there is a half-human high stone platform, small at the top and large at the bottom, with a shallow square groove in the center. The stone platform is connected to a circular stone plate, on which four relief dragons are surrounded, which is lifelike.
Nanrong Yuhong stepped forward and took out something from his arms: "Without His Majesty's jade seal, no one will want to go in." β
He put the square jade seal into the groove on the stone platform, and with a light press, the entire stone platform fell with a bang, and on the circular stone plate below, four long dragons swam in turn, and the back one caught the tail of the previous one, and the four long dragons were connected to form a ring at the end of the head, and the divine light rose, and the round stone plate fell again, touching a certain mechanism. The passage where Wu Luo and Nan Rong Yuhong were standing was from the ground to the wall to the zenith, a dense red light formation appeared, and there was a dull sound, and the door of the treasure house slowly opened.
Wu Luo looked around, and secretly thought that if someone broke in, he would really plunge into the net of heaven and earth.
The defense was so tight that he had some expectations for the treasure hidden in the treasury.
Nanrong Yuhong walked in first, and Wu Luo followed. As the two stepped in, the walls of the treasure house automatically emitted light, illuminating the snow.
This treasure house is not very tall, only three zhang square, and the middle is very empty, but there are eighteen huge grooves on the stone wall that surrounds it. The grooves were square, three feet square, deep into the stone wall, covered with a pale blue film of light. Thirteen of the grooves already contain treasures.
Those treasures are naturally clear at a glance, most of them are not able to accommodate a three-foot square space, obviously behind these grooves, there is an independent space.
Wu Luo stepped forward and looked from the first one.
Just a knife hilt.
Wu Luo was a little surprised, it was also the royal treasury of the half-demon clan, how could he get a "break" here? This knife handle looks like it was carved from the horns of some kind of beast, and the strange thing is that it is not carved into any shape, just layers of strange patterns.
The texture looks very mysterious and profound, and if you look at it along the pattern, you will be unconsciously attracted by it. But Wu Luo is a monk, and his Dao heart is firm, how can he be easily confused?
He rolled his eyes and broke free.
There's something weird about this thing. Wu Luo muttered in his heart, could it be an unknown power?
The hilt is dark and has no peculiar sheen. The blade below was long gone, but it began to break from the end of the handle, and Wu Luo estimated that the part of the handle he saw now was four-fifths of the complete handle.
The fractures are full of cracks, and the cracks cut off those strange lines, which may be one of the reasons why the confusing effect is not strong.
Wu Luo deliberately glanced at Nanrong Yuhong, and half-jokingly said: "If this knife handle can also enter the royal treasury of the half-demon clan, then it is at least the handle of the 'Prison Breaker'." β
Nanrong Yuhong had a straight face: "Sir, don't underestimate this treasure, the underwater ruins that found this thing back then have devoured one of our clan's art kings and two soldier kings." β
Wu Luo was a little surprised: "Really, a king of art and two kings of soldiers, in exchange for such a broken one, there is nothing else in the ruins of the seabed?"
Nanrong Yuhong also subconsciously revealed a puzzled look: "Only this thing." And there is no trace of anyone else entering the underwater ruins. β
Wu Luo couldn't help but glance at the thing again: a powerful underwater ruin, just to store this thing?
He put it down for a moment and continued to look back.
The more he looked at Wu Luo, the more he nodded secretly, it was worthy of being the royal treasure house of the half-demon clan, except for the first one at the beginning, all the others were heavy treasures.
Twelve things, any one placed in Zhongzhou, are all treasures of the Nine Heavenly Gates. Placed in the eastern soil, it is also a sacred object of the Eight Heavenly Gates.
Even if it is the Great Sage of the Demon Clan, he can at most take out three treasures that are comparable to each other at a time. The half-demon clan dominates the Divine Barren Sea, and the family background is really rich.
Wu Luo's praise is praise, but these treasures are really chicken ribs for him.
Wu Luo already had enough treasures of his own, and although these things were precious, none of them could compare to the ones he already had. It's no use asking for it.
Nanrong Yuhong accompanied Wu Luo, and saw that every time Wu Luo looked at something, he nodded silently, and his heart became more and more bottomless. What if Wu Luo suddenly changed his hexagram and the lion opened his mouth, and he wanted it all?
To be honest, the treasures in this royal treasury, although extremely valuable, are not indispensable. The truly indispensable treasures are in the hands of the generals, each with its own use, and will never be shelved in the royal treasury.
It's not impossible to give it to Wu Luo, but it always hurts.
He didn't expect that after Wu Luo finished reading it, he frowned, touched his chin and threw out a sentence: "Your Highness, I don't want these things." β
There is only one word different from the sentence that Nanrong Yuhong guessed, but the meaning is diametrically opposite, Nanrong Yuhong was dumbfounded: "Ah?!"
"Don't want it all?" King Zhenhai was very worried, but Her Majesty the Empress told him that this object and treasure is the core link of repairing the relationship with Wu Luo, Wu Luo doesn't want any of them, can it be said that he is still dissatisfied in his heart?
This is definitely not good news.
"These are rare treasures, even if you search the entire Divine Wilderness Sea, you may not be able to find a second one, sir, you ......"
Wu Luo knew that he had misunderstood, and waved his hand and said, "It's not that these things are bad, but ...... I don't need to. β
"This ......" Nanrong Yuhong was a little anxious, Wu Luo couldn't help but smile, his mind turned around, and he simply stretched out his hand and pointed to the first one, the broken hilt: "Forget it, I'll pick one, that's it." β
"I want this one, and the remaining four pieces, it's better to exchange them for four pieces of Innate Divine Jade. β
"I know that innate divine jade is rare, and you probably don't have that much inventory, but it doesn't matter, before I achieve great success, you have time to find it. β
......
Four pieces of innate divine jade, this price made Nanrong Yuhong a little uneasy. After sending Wu Luo back to his residence, King Zhenhai went straight to the emperor's palace.
Nanrong Yumei smiled instead: "That's fine." β
Nanrong Yuhong was a little puzzled: "Your Majesty, our half-demon clan has been breeding in the Divine Desolate Sea for tens of thousands of years, counting those ancient records, we have only found three innate divine jades so far, how can we find four in such a short period of time?"
Nanrong Yumei waved her hand: "If you can't find it, it's another matter, since you have this agreement, you can use this as an excuse to communicate with him often." Her Majesty's eyes glanced at her younger brother, Nan Rongyuhong comprehended, and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, rest assured, this errand has been received by my brother." β
Nanrong Yumei sighed: "It's only you, if you change to anyone else, I don't feel at ease." β
She changed the topic: "There is no news from Di Qianyu yet?"
Nanrong Yuhong said: "For a while, let's pay close attention to the situation in Dongtu. Di Qianyu seemed to have disappeared. However, the three demon saints of Yan Zhixi discovered the changes in the Sunset Wasteland, and the three old guys were furious and were already looking for the murderer in Mandongtu. β
Lei Xianda and Kuai Song, who really did it, have been killed by Wu Luo, Di Qianyu has been hiding behind the scenes, just a wooden shrine, it is not worth Di Qianyu's shot, and of course it will not leave any traces.
These Nanrong Yumei knew very well in her heart, and she was a little happy: "Let them make trouble, the more chaotic the eastern soil, the better it will be for our clan." β
King Zhenhai said with a colored face: "Your Majesty, the Eastern Earth Demon Clan can't take care of us for the time being, but the Heavenly Desolate Sea is a little restless. β
Nanrong Yumei regretted it a little at this time, and rushed into the Heavenly Desolate Sea, it was for the sake of the holy land sacrifice, which is understandable. But when he came out, because of his anger with Wu Luo, he killed dozens of ocean monsters along the way, and he was a little too angry.
The Wang Yang Giant Demon Clan is by no means a gentle race, and even among the three races, it is definitely the most irritable. It was precisely because of this character flaw that it was difficult for the Giant Demon to form a well-disciplined army - as long as they got together, they would quarrel first - otherwise, it would be really difficult for the Half-Demon Clan to compete with them.
But this time, the Half-Demon Empress gave them an excuse to join forces.
"There have been traces of high-level warriors of the Giant Demon Clan on the border many times, but they are still scattered and fighting on their own, so it will be a little troublesome, but it will not cause too much trouble. Nanrong Yuhong said.
Her Majesty nodded: "I know. β
Nanrong Yuhong knew that it was time to retire, so after thinking about it, he stayed and said more: "Your Majesty, the minister has a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not?"
Nanrong Yumei was not angry: "Just say what you have." βroοΌ~οΌ
