Chapter 764 - A Walking Zombie (1/2)
Sea is mysterious for anyone.
After all, a large area of the earth is the sea and the sea could be land many years ago. Maybe a lot of secrets are hidden in there. Therefore, plenty of people will go into the sea for adventure every year, which is a very interesting thing. For some forward-thinking people, it won’t be a big deal to risk their lives seeking true knowledge, finding the truth and figuring out something others don’t know.
Gao Ge is still surprised to hear Heaven Dragon say that there is a tomb under the sea near Red Fish Village.
He thought Heaven Dragon’s words were nonsense. After all, that is too big a project. However, as Heaven Dragon said, if it is an imperial tomb, everything is explainable then. Take the First Emperor of Qin for example. Didn’t his tomb take labor resources and material resources? Yet, for the sake of stability after death, the emperors wouldn’t care about that. As to whether it would be overloaded for the national finance, they didn’t care at all. After all, they were dead. What happened after they died was irrelevant to them.
Of course, not every emperor could do that.
After all, not every emperor of every dynasty was very rich and powerful.
Take the late Ming Dynasty for instance. The emperor had to listen to the cabinet on everything. The grand secretary did almost everything that the emperor should do. Besides, as to what the emperor should do or should not do, it was also up to them to decide. In this case, could the grand secretary agree with the emperor to build such an imperial tomb?
Of course it was impossible.
“Who is the emperor buried here?” Gao Ge asks.
“Why don’t you ask yourself? Don’t make it sound like that I’ve dug the tomb,” Heaven Dragon says.
Gao Ge is lost for words.
This is probably why Gao Ge likes roasting Heaven Dragon.
Heaven Dragon probably needs roasting…
Gao Ge cannot think of another explanation.
The way Gao Ge gazes at him looks a bit weird. Heaven Dragon coughs and says, “I only know that there is an imperial tomb but I really don’t know which emperor it belongs to. Well, it should be an emperor of the Song Dynasty.”
“Does the emperor have anything to do with the Ghost Sect?” Gao Ge asks.
“Of course yes,” Heaven Dragon says, “We guess that the Ghost Sect was established at that time and that it was initially aimed to guard the imperial tomb. Yet, we can’t be sure of whether it is the truth. We can only say that it is highly possible. After all, the Ghost Sect is always very mysterious. We cannot be sure of their real situation.”
Gao Ge shakes his head.
He doesn’t care about these things at all. Besides, it doesn’t matter to him which emperor the Ghost Sect has anything to do with!
They are here in Red Fish Village only to find the Ghost Sect and exterminate it.
As to these trivial things, they are insignificant to Gao Ge.
Seeing Gao Ge’s facial expression, Heaven Dragon seems to have seen through his thought and then says with a frown, “Your thought is wrong. Do you think these things are inessential? Wrong! You are wrong! As an old saying goes, if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be put at risk even in a hundred battles. Our goal is to exterminate the Ghost Sect but before that, we also need to know about them. Understand?”
Gao Ge coughs.
He doesn’t like Heaven Dragon but what Heaven Dragon said kind of wakes him up.
Thinking of that, he also finds that he was being a bit hasty.
Knowing the enemy is still very necessary.
“Do we also need to figure out whose imperial tomb it is?” Gao Ge asks.
“Why bother? We only want to exterminate the Ghost Sect.”
