328: Chapter 328 Without the Divine Emperor’s Decree, You Cannot Enter!
Sun Pinghui furrowed his brows, uttering a question.
The crowd in the dical hall turned their gaze towards Sun Pinghui, waiting for him to continue.
“This must be the first challenge set by our esteed ancestor,” Sun Pinghui said.
“The dicine King left behind a great work, the ‘Prescriptions Worth More than Gold,’ which beca an encyclopedia for traditional dicine in Long nation.
However, during his later years, the dicine King discovered shortcomings in the ‘Prescriptions Worth More than Gold,’ leading to the creation of the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold.'”
“It’s just that the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold’ never circulated publicly and were kept within the dicine King Valley and the Sun family, guarded personally by the dicine King in a special place.”
“At that ti, since the dicine King was still alive, many things were conveyed verbally, and the people of dicine King Valley didn’t pay much attention to the supplentary prescriptions.”
“But one night, the dicine King passed away suddenly, and since then, the trace of the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold’ vanished, leaving only the dicine King’s verbally transmitted fragnts, which were incomplete.”
“There was once a rumor that the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold’ were always carried on the dicine King’s person, thus the legend of their existence in the dicine King Tomb ca to be.”
“However, there’s another opinion that the dicine King never actually died but instead attained the Dao through his dicine and ascended to immortality.
The so-called dicine King Tomb is nothing but a test left behind to see if his descendants are worthy of inheriting the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold.'”
“Nevertheless, both theories assert one fact, that is, the dicine King Tomb definitely contains the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold!'”
“Our family records also ntion that finding the dicine King Tomb doesn’t guarantee obtaining the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold.’ One must pass through the dicine King’s three challenges, and the first challenge is to enter the ancient tomb!”
Having said this, Sun Pinghui paused for a mont, then spoke again:
“That’s why I just now doubted that this could very likely be the dicine King’s first challenge, to enter the tomb!”
Upon hearing this, Qin Han nodded and said, “Falling unconscious less than fifty ters into the tomb clearly indicates the loss of qualification to proceed.
After all, one who isn’t even conscious can hardly be expected to face any further challenges.”
“It seems the dicine King is not going to let soone obtain the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold’ so easily.”
Ming Xizhi, on the other hand, wasn’t concerned about the ‘Supplentary Prescriptions Worth More than Gold.’ He was worried about the dozen or so people currently lying in the military hospital and how to deal with this tomb issue, so he urged:
“Mr.
Qin, Elder Sun, let’s hurry then!”
Shortly after, they got into Ming Xizhi’s car and rushed to the accident site in the western district of Zhongzhou.
When they arrived at the site of the ancient tomb, what Qin Han and the others first saw upon getting out of the car was a security wall more than a person high, and even Ming Xizhi’s car was stopped outside.
It wasn’t out of disrespect for Ming Xizhi’s na, but rather out of fear that more people would get poisoned.
Outside the security wall, a team of black-clad n stood guard.
As the group approached, a young man stepped forward and asked, “Who are you?!”
Ming Xizhi handed over his identification and the Divine Emperor’s missive.
The young man glanced at it and said, “The missive states two nas, but there are three of you here!
Who isn’t ntioned in the missive?”
“It’s Elder Sun!” Ming Xizhi replied calmly.
“Initially, we hadn’t planned to include Elder Sun in this perilous task, but considering that Elder Sun is the heir to dicine King Valley, we ultimately invited him along.”
Ming Xizhi, too, was in a bind since the Divine Emperor’s order was only for him to introduce Qin Han, so the missive listed just the two of them, Qin Han and Ming Xizhi.
Yet he thought that, since Zhongzhou was his territory, bringing one more person should not cause too much trouble with the Abnormal People Hall, should it?
That’s why he hadn’t ntioned it outright while at the dical hall.
“No, the missive specifies two people, so only two shall enter!” the young man said with a cold snort.
Ming Xizhi felt quite displeased with the young man’s attitude and stepped forward, saying, “Do you not know who I am?”
“I know, the Deputy Commander of the Central Plains District, Lord Ming Xizhi!” the young man replied, glancing at Ming Xizhi.
Upon hearing this, Ming Xizhi was thoroughly enraged, knowing that his own patrols didn’t give any face, and he burst out angrily:
“Since you know, on my turf, I can’t bring soone in?
Don’t forget, it was only after you from Abnormal People Hall couldn’t handle it that I was asked to intervene and invite an expert!”
The young man shook his head and said, “Abnormal People Hall is part of the Divine Dragon Society, you don’t have command over us.
Moreover, it’s not that we can’t handle it, the higher-ups requested that you bring soone over!”
“If it’s you and him, you can go in to take a look!
But this person cannot!”
Sun Pinghui, hearing this, said, “Lord Ming, Qin, I won’t go in then.
You two go have a look, see if you can resolve it.”
“Sun Pinghui is the heir of dicine King Valley, so why doesn’t he have the right to enter the dicine King Tomb?” Qin Han said flatly.
The young man glanced at Qin Han and said, “I know you, you’re the doctor who solved the epidemic virus in Jiangcheng.
I don’t understand why the higher-ups insisted on waiting for you to go down to the tomb!”
“Besides, it’s not yet confird that the tomb inside is the dicine King Tomb, so the identity from dicine King Valley doesn’t work here!”
The young man had heard about the last ti Abnormal People Hall went to Jiangcheng to handle a matter and were about to succeed when Qin Han interfered.
A great accomplishnt just slipped away like that.
He was also very angry after hearing about the incident from colleagues who returned from Jiangcheng.
In fact, letting one more person in wasn’t a big deal for Abnormal People Hall; they were there to assist in resolving the issue, what harm could it do?
At the mont, it was just to give Qin Han a hard ti.
Even a trivial move, as long as it irked him, would be satisfying!
“You can’t even confirm whose tomb it is inside, has Abnormal People Hall now beco a bunch of freeloaders?” Qin Han glanced at the young man and sneered.
“You… say that again?” The young man burst out angrily when he heard this.
Qin Han didn’t look at the young man again; instead, he turned to face the direction of the ancient tomb and said indifferently, “Even if I say it ten tis over, it’s the sa.
Don’t think I don’t know that letting one more person in would be of no consequence to you two.
Such actions are not unprecedented for you.”
“Alright, alright, alright!
I want to see what makes you so arrogant!” said the young man, about to step forward.
Just as the situation was about to erupt, Ming Xizhi, with a stern face, said in a deep voice, “What are you doing?
I’m going to ask about the imperial edict right now.
Are you trying to incite a conflict with the local authorities by laying a hand on Mr.
Qin?”
The young man’s face tightened when he heard this.
He knew that if anything really happened, not even the Hall Master could protect him with such an accusation from Ming Xizhi.
He then stepped back and said impatiently, “Then go ask about the edict quickly!”
“Ignorance truly is fearless!” Furious, Ming Xizhi pointed at the young man for a long ti before turning on his heel and leaving the scene, uttering this phrase before going to make a phone call.
However, just as Ming Xizhi was about to take out his phone, he was stopped by Qin Han.
Qin Han, looking at the young man at the entrance of the isolation wall, said, “Since they won’t let us in, Sun Lai and I won’t go in!”
“Why bother with a phone call?
Abnormal People Hall is the top hall of Divine Dragon Society.
No one else can handle supernatural events apart from them.
You have to trust their abilities, they’re not as incompetent as people say!”
Ming Xizhi was about to speak when the young man said, “What’s the use of arguing here?
Aren’t you still unable to enter?”
“Don’t worry, even if your Hall Master ca, I still wouldn’t go in!” Qin Han said, before pulling Sun Pinghui with him, and the two got into the car.
Ming Xizhi looked at Qin Han getting into the car, then at the young man and said with a cold laugh:
“You’d better report what happened here to Liu Wan Nian, otherwise you can’t bear the responsibility if sothing goes wrong.
Young man, don’t be so arrogant that you lose your way.”
