Becoming Great Emperor by Playing Game

Chapter 156: Two Qin Shi Huang Mausoleums?



"There is actually a cave hidden here."

"Stop the nonsense, let's find the children quickly."

The group had already broken through the cave and descended, only to find two entrances below.

The group split into two, heading towards the two entrances.

Soon, the team at the entrance on the left found the children.

The children were huddled fearfully at the end of the cave; all five were there, safe and healthy.

Once they confirmed the children were fine, they began to survey their surroundings.

All around were countless wooden boxes and several lifelike stone statues of strange Demon Beasts.

Curious about the contents of the boxes, someone with a bold streak opened one at random.

As soon as it was opened, everyone was dumbfounded, for the box was filled with gold and jewels in front of them!

"Is this place a treasury?" one villager exclaimed in surprise, eyes gleaming, greed rising in his heart.

With so much gold and jewels, if they took it all, they'd make a fortune!

"It seems so; are the other boxes also filled with treasures?"

The other villagers rushed to open the wooden boxes, discovering they were all filled with gold and jewels. Together, this treasure could buy a city!

"So much treasure, could this be a tomb?" one manager exclaimed in surprise.

Just then, a manager ran over: "Everyone, quickly to the other cave entrance, something's wrong."

Upon hearing this, the managers rushed out after him.

Those villagers who remained, seeing the managers leave, could no longer suppress their greed, crazily grabbing the treasures and stuffing them into their arms.

They were farmers who'd been poor their entire lives, and today, faced with so much gold and jewels, even those engaged in Cultivation could not suppress their desire.

"The eyeballs of these statues are actually emeralds, worth a fortune!" one villager discovered a New World, reaching out to pluck them out.

But the moment he touched the statue, the emerald-green gemstones turned red!

"My God, is this Qin Shi Huang's tomb?"

The managers arrived at the end of the other cave entrance, finding a new world before them.

Before their eyes were terracotta warriors and chariots, towering and fierce, standing like guardians, exuding an imposing aura.

Qin Shi Huang's burial army, seen here at a glance, numbered at least ten thousand.

"How can this be? Wasn't Qin Shi Huang's tomb already discovered, now protected in a museum?"

"But, I don't think anyone has ever opened that tomb, how can we be sure Qin Shi Huang is inside?"

"It was confirmed by the terracotta warriors at the time, and out of respect for the ancestors, it was not opened. But now, finding terracotta warriors again, what's going on?"

"Impossible, could there be two Qin Shi Huang tombs?"

The crowd was shocked by this previously unseen Qin Shi Huang tomb; if it was real, then what was the one in the museum?

The development of the situation had far exceeded their imagination, a decision beyond their capacity, requiring them to report to higher authorities.

"Immediately report the situation here truthfully, let the minister decide," the team leader in charge of the operation said.

The emergence of a new Qin Shi Huang tomb was too bizarre, and the gold and jewels in the adjacent cave were equally puzzling.

Suddenly, the team leader trembled, shouting, "Those people across the way!"

In an instant, he disappeared, and the others followed suit.

The manager team leader flashed back to the previous cave entrance, eyes widening in shock.

Just moments ago, the villagers were alive, but now they were all dead, and those stone statues were gone!

"Damn it, I should have known," the leader blamed himself, but there was nothing he could do now except urgently call the minister to come and see.

This matter was no trivial matter; the disappearance of the statues and the new Qin Shi Huang tomb indicated complexity.

The next day.

Li Long was already aware of the situation regarding the new Qin Shi Huang tomb and the ancient creatures and arrived at the site personally to investigate.

He and Daoist Qingfeng arrived at the new Qin Shi Huang tomb, where many were already taking photos and investigating, with numerous archaeological experts slowly verifying the site.

As progress continued, it was eventually confirmed that these terracotta warriors were real; this was indeed Qin Shi Huang's tomb, and even more magnificent than the one in the museum.

"So, you mean to say this is also Qin Shi Huang's tomb?" Li Long looked at the experts, questioning.

"Yes, the two tombs' similarity is 90%, but this one is obviously more grand, showing more attention to detail, especially the main tomb where Qin Shi Huang's body is, compared to the museum's, is more meticulous. The other is like a shoddy fake."

"Then open the coffin to verify its authenticity," Li Long said coldly, now disregarding ancestor respect.

Since there were two Qin Shi Huang tombs, the coffins must be opened to verify authenticity.

Upon hearing this, the experts looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

"That's settled then, I'll have the museum open their coffin and see, if they have Qin Shi Huang's body, then this one is fake; if not, then this one is real. Qin Shi Huang couldn't have not died."

The experts were startled; this logic was really compelling.

Qin Shi Huang couldn't possibly not be dead.

Soon, Li Long instructed the museum to prepare for coffin opening, and as the coffin was gradually opened, they saw it all via remote video on their phones.

When the coffin was opened, they were greatly surprised: there was indeed no corpse inside!

Then the Qin Shi Huang mausoleum here was the real Qin Shi Huang tomb!

Their long-protected Qin Shi Huang tomb was fake!

But why would Qin Shi Huang create two such similar tombs?

Wasn't it redundant?

Or did he want to trick people into looting a fake tomb?

An ancestor's joke?

"Should this tomb still be opened?"

At this point, there might be no need to open this tomb, as the other had no corpse, so this must be it.

"Open," Li Long said solemnly. Given the situation, they should open it, what if this one is also fake?

In the end, they decided to open this coffin as well.

With Li Long's nod of confirmation, Daoist Qingfeng waved his hand, and the coffin automatically opened, gradually revealing its contents.

Everyone looked over, their expressions changing to shock, each stunned into silence.

It was also empty inside!

"How could it be, it's empty too, so where did Qin Shi Huang go?"

Both tombs are empty, could there be a third or fourth tomb?

How many tombs did the ancestor create, was he bored?

Or could it be, the ancestor never died?
