Chapter 163: Chapter 163. The Dream Was Too Real

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This was indeed a place with good Feng Shui. Standing in the array, one would feel full of spirit and spiritual energy, and a warm feeling spread all over the body.

Ji Shuishcng followed the map drawn by Su Qing to the center of the array. He stabbed the treasured saber into the eye of the array and turned it with force. A clucking sound was heard as the mechanism was closed.

He quickly walked to the dragon’s head with the treasured saber, raised it, and stabbed it with all his might.

As his blade stabbed the dragon’s head, the ground shook, and the mountain trembled. A shrill dragon’s roar resounded in the cave, and a strong wind rose from the ground.

Ji Shuishcng couldn’t hold his treasured saber, and his entire body was blown up. The muscles on his face trembled in the wind, and his hair was blown away.

“Shuishcng.”

Qiu Yongkang rushed over to help him hold down the saber, and he, too, flew into the air.

Su Qing didn’t rush over. Instead, she found the black powder the system had given her last time and ran to the dragon’s belly to place it there. She took out a lighter and lit the fuse. The fuse sparked and made a sizzling sound as it quickly burned the black powder.

“Quickly lie down,” Su Qing called out to Ji Shuishcng and Qiu Yongkang.

When Ji Shuishcng and Qiu Yongkang heard Su Qing’s shout, they subconsciously did as he said. They had just laid on the ground when they heard a loud explosion. The dragon’s abdomen was blown to pieces, and gravel fell like rain.

The three were slightly injured to varying degrees in the rain of rocks. The rock Dragon was smashed into two pieces, and the dragon’s roar had disappeared, but the ground shook even more violently.

“Not good, the earth Dragon has turned over.”

Ji Shuishcng shouted and pulled Su Qing along. He called Qiu Yongkang and the other two to run forward quickly. There were falling rocks all around, and the ground shook even more violently.

The Peach Blossom Cove villagers waiting for them outside also felt the earthquake and the mountains shaking. The sky that was still clear a moment ago was as dark as ink. Just like the last time the earth Dragon flipped over, the earth shook violently, and people could not stand steadily and fell all over the place.

The gravel on the mountain fell like raindrops. Everyone rolled and crawled behind the carriage to hide. Qin Feng looked up at the dark sky and felt uneasy. A flash of lightning split the thick clouds, and the blinding light blinded him so much that he could not open his eyes.

The shaking lasted for a few minutes before it stopped. A fine cold rain began to fall from the sky. The villagers of Peach Blossom Cove started to search for straw rain clothes and bamboo hats in a hurry. Qin Feng anxiously searched behind a rock.

“Will Shuishcng and the rest be buried inside?”

Hearing Qin Feng’s words, Ji Xiaoying hurriedly ran behind the rock to look for the hole, only to find that the hole had been buried by falling rocks.

“Big brother, sister Su Qing, big brother Qiu,”

Xiaoying pounced over and used her hands to dig at the rubble. The people buried under the ruins were her closest kin. It was all her fault for catching rabbits for no reason and killing big brother and the rest.

When Zhong Yong heard that Su Qing and Ji Shuishcng had been buried inside, he ran over and squatted on the ground, using his hands as hoes. He followed Ji Xiaoying to dig up the rocks, hoping to save them.

“Let’s go together.”

The young men and young ladies of Peach Blossom all ran over, and everyone used their hands to open up a path for Ji Shuishcng and the others.

Everyone’s hands were dripping with blood, but no one cried in pain and retreated. Everyone was racing against time. If they were a moment late, the person inside might not survive.

“We’ll come too.”

Aunt Qiu and the other elderly people had all come over and joined the team. Everyone was more united than ever.

Ji Shuishcng and the others, covered in dirt, found another exit and walked out. This was the scene they saw. Everyone was shouting their names and tirelessly trying to dig out the hole.

No one retreated, even in the pouring rain!

“They are worth our protection.”

Ji Shuishcng said to Su Qing and Qiu Yongkang, feeling touched. Su Qing was shocked to see such a scene and couldn’t look away for long.

“We’re here.”

Qiu Yongkang shouted. Xiaoying was the first to hear his voice. She raised her head and saw them standing in the rain, crying as she ran towards them.

“Big brother, big brother Qiu, sister Su Qing, and the others are still alive.”

When the villagers heard Xiaoying’s shout, they ran over excitedly and surrounded Ji Shuishcng and the other two. Their anxiety, helplessness, and sorrow were all replaced by joy.

The rain lasted for an entire day. It was the most dangerous time in the mountains when it rained. If the rain was heavy, landslides could bury people alive.

Ji Shuishcng and the rest could not care about their fatigue and told everyone to pack up and leave quickly.

They walked for less than a cup of tea’s time before a landslide buried the place they had just stopped at, and the gravel cut off the road.

In Yangxin Palace Hall, the Emperor was taking a nap. The palace was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. The Emperor, wearing a bright yellow sleeping robe, suddenly sat up from the bed and gasped for breath while holding his heart and sweating profusely.

“Emperor, what’s wrong?”

The eunuch serving at the side hurried over and handed the Emperor a silk handkerchief to wipe his sweat.

“Long Meng Jian’s Dragon vein has been destroyed.”

Yongqi’s face was sullen, and his eyes were uncertain. That dream was too real. The earth shook, and the mountains shook. The Dragon vein was blown to pieces.

He had never been so flustered, and his forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat.

“Your Majesty, what you think in the day is what you dream at night. You may be worried that general Wan will send people to destroy the Dragon vein, so you have such a dream.”

The eunuch said promptly, his eyes observing the Emperor’s reaction.

“The Wan family is my greatest worry.”

Yongqi gritted his teeth, hatred floating in his eyes. He was the Emperor but had to act according to the Wan family’s mood.

“Your Majesty, the Wan family has sent five teams of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth to search the mountains. They might be looking for the Dragon vein.”

The eunuch had given the Emperor a warning about the Wan family. Of course, the Emperor knew that the Wan family had sent out five groups of people. His secret agents had already sent the news to the Emperor, but he did not know what they were looking for.

The eunuch used the Emperor’s dream to help him analyze Wan Yulin’s thoughts.

“Wan Yulin,”

The Emperor slammed the table heavily. He didn’t want to take things slow anymore. If he didn’t decide, it would only lead to chaos. That dream was a reminder of his ancestors!

“Pass down the decree, order Wan Yulin to enter the capital to receive his title.”

The Emperor already had the intention to kill. First, he had to trick Wan Yulin, who held military power, back to the capital.

Wan Yulin was too cunning. Last time, he had wanted to use him to escort Wan Yufeng’s body back to the capital to deal with him. He had arranged for the An family to be placed in the Imperial Guards so that they could capture him once Wan Yulin returned to the capital. However, he suddenly returned to the encampment halfway, and it would be difficult to let the Tiger return to the mountain and then capture him again.

“Yes.”

Your eunuch knelt and agreed. He went down to grind the ink to prepare.

Yongqi sat on the bed with a gloomy face, thinking about that terrible drcam. He was restless, and his right eyelid twitched wildly. He couldn’t sit still.

Just as Yongqi felt uneasy and that something had happened, an eunuch ran into the hall anxiously. He raised the 800-mile emergency pass with both hands and knelt on the ground to report to the Emperor,

“Your Majesty, the refugees from Fu County have rebelled..”
