General of the Heavens

The tomb raiding has been going on for three days.

Chen Yulou had his men clear out a quiet room in the mortuary, where he secretly discussed matters with Ning Chen, Partridge Whistle, and others. Since the ringleader of the Ping Mountain bandits had suffered such a terrible defeat, they felt they couldn't simply take him by force.

"Brother Ning, what do you think?"

Looking at Chen Yulou, he seems to resemble Fatty Di...

Ning Chen spoke confidently and loudly: "Brother Chen, in my opinion, if we want to steal the Ping Mountain Ancient Tomb, we can split into two groups."

You lead the Unloading Ridge Warriors to slowly work through the crevice, but don't send all of them in at once. Meanwhile, the Partridge Whistle brothers, along with the Moving Mountain lineage, will use their Moving Mountain techniques. With this two-pronged approach, great things are within reach!

"Hmm... I think this is a good idea!"

Luo Laowai had been at a loss for what to do with Baoshan these past few days, and he was seething with hatred. As soon as Ning Chen finished speaking, he immediately slammed his fist on the table and exclaimed in admiration!

After much deliberation, Chen Yulou finally nodded and said, "In that case, I also look forward to Brother Partridge Whistle's mountain-moving technique!"

He and Partridge Whistle had known each other for a long time and were close friends, but they were both too busy with their own affairs to have a chance to get together and have a good talk. They also didn't know if the claim that the Mountain Moving Technique was true.

Chen Yulou only knew that the Mountain Moving Taoist had passed on the Mountain Moving Secret Technique in an extremely mysterious way, and outsiders should not make any rash judgments about it.

Ning Chen's question at this moment could help him find out the truth about Partridge Whistle. Otherwise, since the Mountain Moving Taoists were famous but incompetent, wouldn't it be a waste to send them to their deaths if they were allowed to enter Bottle Mountain?

Partridge Whistle laughed upon hearing this, “The Mountain-Moving Taoist is named after the character ‘Moving’, and people often think that he is the same as the Unloading Ridge Warrior, who moves mountains by force. But they don’t know that in this world, you can dig and carve mountains, but where is the real power to move mountains?”

"Without skill, how could one move a mountain? The techniques of 'Dividing Mountains and Digging Out Armor' and 'Moving Mountains and Filling Seas' have not been practiced for a long time. I'm itching to hone my skills, and now this Bottle Mountain is the perfect opportunity to unleash the art of dividing mountains and moving armor."

Partridge Whistle, being highly skilled and confident in his abilities, naturally agreed to Ning Chen's suggestion to split the troops into two groups.

When Chen Yulou heard Partridge Whistle, the Taoist of Moving Mountains, say that he had a set of Mountain Moving and Armor Splitting Techniques that he could use, he was overjoyed.

He hurriedly asked, "How is this technique performed? I would like to hear the details. If it is truly successful, I will immediately appoint you as a general!"

Partridge Whistle said, "To rob tombs using techniques, one needs support and ability. To rob the ancient tomb at Ping Mountain, the techniques of moving mountains and unloading ridges are indispensable. As for the techniques of moving mountains and dividing armor..."

He paused for a moment and then said, "I have heard that the principle of the correspondence between heaven and man is fully contained in the Spring and Autumn Annals, and the number of blessings and good fortune is recorded in the Book of Changes."

It is said that the methods of tomb raiding and grave robbing use the Book of Changes, which is an ancient tradition. The art of the Mountain-Moving Taoist has a history of over a thousand years, but the Mountain-Moving and Grain-Dividing Technique is different from any other magic arts in the world.

Although it focuses on the principles of mutual generation and restraint, it does not derive from the Five Elements theory of mutual generation and restraint in the *I Ching*. In all things under heaven, for every strong element, there must be a restraining element; the mutual generation and restraint of strength and weakness is the art of moving mountains.

Mentioning the methods of the Tomb Raiders and the Grave Robbers, Ning Chen couldn't help but feel ashamed; he was nothing more than an empty shell...

Looking at Partridge Whistle, he believed that countless poisonous creatures in Bottle Mountain were taking advantage of the medicinal properties of the mountain to cultivate themselves, and that they would eventually cause a great disaster.

Regardless of whether we intend to plunder the ancient tombs in these mountains, we must search around to see what natural wonders near Ping Mountain can counteract poisons.

Chen Yulou was a quick-witted person, and he immediately understood that as long as he found a treasure that could ward off poison and mirages, there was no need to worry about not being able to steal the ancient tomb of Ping Mountain.

Moved to tears, he slammed his hand on the table and exclaimed, "Hearing your words is worth more than ten years of study! We, the bandits of the Unloading Ridge, even if we weren't after the treasures in the tomb, would certainly eliminate the poisonous creatures and accumulate merit!"

Ning Chen scoffed at Chen Yulou's grand ambitions. He'd exaggerated the idea of ​​tomb raiding into a mere act of saving lives from dire straits...

After much discussion, Partridge Whistle made a decision and decided to take his junior brothers and sisters and leave first, following Ning Chen's suggestion to split up into two groups.

Chen Yulou called out to Partridge Whistle, "Brother, wait a moment. Ping Mountain is vast. Where do you plan to go? I'd like to send someone to assist you."

Partridge Whistle was always arrogant and disliked crowds. He always traveled with only his junior brother and sister, so sending people with Chen Yulou was useless.

He declined Chen Yulou's offer and was about to leave when Ning Chen pulled him aside again and whispered something in his ear. Partridge Whistle's attitude changed drastically.

He seemed somewhat embarrassed as he said to Chen Yulou, "Brother Chen, my two fellow disciples and I are indeed a small group. If possible, could Miss Hong assist us?"

"Red Girl?"

Luo Laowai has never given up these past few days, thinking about the two beauties in the team. He originally thought that before Hua Ling left, there would still be Hong Guniang left, but unexpectedly Partridge Whistle interfered.

"Is this guy up to something?"

Luo Laowai was very unhappy. Chen Yulou was only stunned for a moment, then considered that this place was all about physical labor, and Hong Guniang was indeed not suitable for this place. It would be better for her to go with Partridge Whistle. So he agreed without hesitation.

Red Girl, usually a spirited and capable woman, now had a slight blush on her cheeks. No one knew what she was thinking, but in the end, she followed Partridge Whistle and the others in a daze…

"Brother Ning, you've made arrangements for all of us, but what about yourself?" After everyone left, Chen Yulou turned his gaze to Ning Chen.

Ning Chen smiled slightly, "Brother Chen, don't worry. I know exactly what I'm capable of. When it's my turn to play a role, I'll step forward naturally."

Chen Yulou asked around in vain, so he simply followed Luo Laowai and left. Ning Chen was very satisfied with the results of his involvement.

Minor losses are unavoidable, but the overall direction has been handled quite perfectly. After all, they are successors to socialism, and they're used to it…

However, while Ning Chen could influence the development of the plot, he could not change the will of the people. Seeing that he had lost the beauty, Luo Laowai could only focus on researching tomb raiding!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Why did the Unloading Ridge faction have so many people and so much power, yet in the end they still had to rely on a few Mountain Moving Taoists? Why did Chen Yulou believe Ning Chen, this half-baked Tomb Raider General, so much? Wouldn't it be better to do it himself?

So he kept whispering in Chen Yulou's ear, "My dear Manager Chen, looking back now, I was completely blinded by greed. By the time that fake Taoist priest returned, it was too late..."

In reality, he didn't want the Mountain Moving Taoists to get involved. Although Partridge Whistle only wanted to find medicine and pearls, and Ning Chen only wanted the zombie's inner core, according to the rules of the Taoist sect, at least a portion of the funerary objects in the ancient tomb had to be divided up.

Those were long spears and cannons, given away for no reason. Wasn't that like cutting flesh off our own body and sending it away?

Luo Laowai kept persuading him not to wait for the Mountain Moving Taoists, but to go it alone. He said that he had a well-equipped engineering and excavation battalion, so what kind of ancient tomb couldn't he dig up?

With proper planning, we have no trouble breaking through Ping Mountain. Even if a thousand or eight hundred soldiers are killed or wounded, it doesn't matter, since human life is worthless these days.

Chen Yulou's personality can be described as extremely arrogant. He values ​​victory and defeat above all else, and the mysterious and unpredictable Mountain Moving Taoist always gives him a slight advantage.

After listening to Luo Laowai's advice, Chen Yulou, driven by a competitive spirit, disregarded Ning Chen's words and resolutely decided to raid Ping Mountain again tomorrow!

However, Ning Chen only learned of this the next day, and by then it was too late…
