General of the Heavens

"Wait a minute, you three!"

Ning Chen's shout made the three of them stop in their tracks. "Young brother, is there anything else?" Partridge Whistle turned around and said in a cold tone.

Ning Chen clasped his hands in a solemn manner and said, "Without any worthy men, we can only carry firewood up the mountain and light fires down below. May I ask, esteemed worthy men, where have you distributed the mountain armor and how many gates of the hill have you dismantled?"

Partridge Whistle's expression changed slightly. They were still colleagues, but seeing Ning Chen almost being bitten to death by a little white wolf, he guessed that Ning Chen was just a newcomer with no real status.

There's no need for the partridge whistle to answer.

The old foreigner said, "To pluck the stars, one needs the hand of Kui Xing; to move mountains, one must not move Everlasting Victory Mountain; what is burned is Dragon and Phoenix Auspicious Incense, and what is drunk is the water of the Five Lakes and Four Seas!"

Ning Chen breathed a sigh of relief. So far, he could still understand what the other side was saying, but he probably wouldn't be able to handle another round.

So Ning Chen decisively spoke: "The black dragon raises the treasure canopy, the golden hair mound has a cave, the stars suddenly open and the wind and clouds gather, the Big Dipper and the Southern Dipper have guests."

As soon as Ning Chen finished speaking, Partridge Whistle's expression changed drastically. Although he was shocked, he was even more puzzled.

The incision Ning Chen mentioned earlier was perfectly correct; however, Ning Chen did not explicitly reveal his identity in his words.

Because his code implies two identities: one is the long-extinct Tomb Raider General, and the other is the Tomb Raider Captain with few successors.

In terms of probability, the latter is more likely, which is what shocked Partridge Whistle. The Mountain Moving Taoists have not found the Muchen Pearl for thousands of years, but there is a rumor that only the Tomb Raiders can find the legendary Muchen Pearl!

"I was blind to your true nature; I never imagined you, young man, were the legendary tomb raiders! Your Excellency Partridge Whistle, the Mountain Moving Taoist, has been disrespectful!"

Partridge Whistle said politely.

Ning Chen's heart pounded. Sure enough, once he got on her good side, Partridge Whistle's attitude made a complete 180-degree turn.

Unfortunately, if Ning Chen claimed to be a tomb raider, Partridge Whistle would quickly realize that he was just a clueless imposter.

But claiming to be a tomb raider general is different. First, he has evidence in his hands, and second, he can deceive others by saying that he doesn't know anything because the lineage of tomb raiders has been broken.

Partridge Whistle will probably be very disappointed, but when that happens, even if Ning Chen makes up some nonsense, his grandfather left behind a tomb raiding notebook that says there are clues about the Muchen Pearl in a certain place, and every single one of them will be accurate!

Damn it, Ning Chen sometimes wondered if he was born with a talent for doing bad things and how he was so good at it.

"Brother Partridge Whistle, I may disappoint you, but I am not a tomb raider!" Ning Chen said apologetically as he turned around.

Partridge Whistle frowned and then said, "Brother Ning, you're not a tomb raider, so did you just hear that code from someone else?"

Ning Chen shook his head and said, "Of course not. It took me a lot of effort to remember this code. I am not a tomb raider, but a tomb excavator general."

"So it's General Faqiu..."

Partridge Whistle spoke casually, but then realized what he meant and immediately said unhappily, "Brother Ning, do you think I'm a child? The lineage of the Tomb Raiders has long been severed!"

"Words are meaningless, but I have evidence!"

Ning Chen smiled and handed over something. Partridge Whistle took it and saw that it was a golden seal.

Eight characters are engraved on it!

Heavenly Official bestows blessings, all taboos are lifted!

"What! This can't possibly be the real Faqiu seal! The real Faqiu seal was destroyed during the Yongle reign of the Ming Dynasty and no longer exists!"

Partridge Whistle exclaimed in surprise.

Legend has it that the tomb raiders, known as the "Tomb Raiders," employed a variety of methods, and that the "General of Excavating Tombs" and the "Tomb Raiders" were both part of Cao Cao's tomb raiding army.

The methods of tomb raiding are almost identical.

However, the General of Faqiu is a higher rank, so he is the leader of the Mojin Captains, and he has an additional Faqiu Heavenly Seal, namely the Faqiu Seal.

The seal is inscribed with eight large characters: "Heavenly Official bestows blessings, all taboos are lifted." It is an irreplaceable divine object, said to ward off ghosts and gods with its presence.

Over the years, in his search for the Muchen Pearl, Partridge Whistle has tried more than once to seek help from the Tomb Raiders or the successors of the Tomb Raider General.

Unfortunately it backfired.

Because every tomb raider must have a tomb raiding talisman, there are ten tomb raiding talismans in total, but seven of them have been destroyed, and the remaining three tomb raiding talismans are extremely rare.

As for the seal of the Taoist priest…

There is only one in the entire world!

Ning Chen greatly admired Partridge Whistle's extensive knowledge, but he was unaware that he possessed such a heaven-defying system.

The system says it's the Seal of the Tomb Raider, so that's it!

Sure enough, Partridge Whistle examined the Tomb Raider Seal for a while before exclaiming in surprise, "This seal is cast in gold and exudes a majestic and righteous aura; it's genuine! So you're actually the legendary Tomb Raider General?"

Ning Chen calmly nodded and said, "Since you have already determined the authenticity of this seal, I don't need to say anything more."

Looking at Ning Chen's arrogant demeanor, the old foreigner couldn't help but retort, "But are all tomb raiders this weak?"

Ning Chen: "..."

"Yes, young man, you're such a weak tomb raider, you can't even outrun me!" Hua Ling said crisply without any restraint.

"Old man!" Mei Kai was embarrassed for the second time. Hua Ling even spoke up to help him. But could Ning Chen compare to her?

The little girl may look delicate and frail, but in reality, she runs incredibly fast, like she's being chased by a dog.

"Hmph! Once I've figured out how to use the Golden Eyes and strengthened my body a few more times, I'll be able to beat you all with just one hand..."

Partridge Whistle interrupted his reverie, asking, "I didn't expect Brother Ning to be the Tomb Raider General. May I ask you something, if it's convenient?"

Feeling comfortable with the initiative in his own hands, Ning Chen said generously, "Anything you want to ask, I will answer to the best of my knowledge to repay the three of you for saving my life."

"My lineage of Mountain Moving has been searching for the Muchen Pearl for generations. It is said that someone in the lineage of Tomb Raiders knows clues about the Muchen Pearl, but my family has never found a successor of the Tomb Raider Captain in our entire lives."

"The tomb raiders and the grave robbers are essentially of the same lineage. Brother Ning, may I ask if you know of any clues regarding the Muchen Pearl? I am willing to pay any price!"

"The Muchen Pearl?" Ning Chen feigned surprise.

Looking at Partridge Whistle's hopeful expression, he said, "My grandfather left behind a notebook about his tomb raiding experiences when he was young. It seems there was some record about the Muchen Pearl in it..."

Before Ning Chen could finish speaking, Partridge Whistle got excited. He grabbed Ning Chen's shoulder with such force that Ning Chen's eyes rolled back in pain.

"Stop shaking it! If you keep shaking it, my little brother will fall apart!" Partridge Whistle realized he had lost his composure and quickly removed his hand, looking apologetic.

"Unfortunately, my grandfather's notebooks were tattered, and I couldn't remember some of it clearly, but I do remember that the Muchen Pearl was also called Phoenix... something like that..."

"Phoenix Gallbladder!" Partridge Whistle added!

"That's right! It's the Phoenix Gallbladder! That notebook speculates that the Phoenix Gallbladder might be inside a mountain shaped like a bottle."

"Is it Ping Mountain?" Partridge Whistle exclaimed in surprise!

Ning Chen: "..." This is too cooperative.
