The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 177

[Chapter 177: The Land of Immortals]

Lin Tian took out a dagger, pried open the wax seal, and took out the paper inside. There was actually a piece of white paper inside!

When Lin Tian saw the white paper, he knew that this must have been kept secret by special means. Generally speaking, it was soaked in water, roasted with fire, or exposed to light.

Judging from the quality of the paper, it should be the paper of Da Chu, so there would not be any more high-tech methods.

There was no water in this secret room, so he could only try fire.

Lin Tian put the white paper on the fire to smoke it for a while, and sure enough, black handwriting emerged one by one.

But it was not English, but square Chinese simplified characters.

It probably said that this rich businessman was a time traveler, and then relied on modern business minds to easily make a lot of money, and also drew a lot of drawings.

The person who can see this letter must be a member of the Momen, and these things can also be created by the Momen mechanism.

The descendants of the Momen will definitely pass on the mechanism through the ages. As for where the rich businessman went, there is no mention in the letter.

After reading the letter, Lin Tian showed it to Mo Di, then put it back, heated the dagger with fire, and sealed the envelope again.

“Master, I knew that you were the son of destiny, and you will definitely make our Mo Sect famous!”

After reading the letter, Mo Di said to Lin Tian with a smile on his face.

“In this case, I still need a good successor. How about this, you just study those drawings here honestly, and stay here all the time except when you go to the toilet!”

Lin Tian looked at Mo Di and said.

“When you make the things for me, when you can go up and see the light of day again!”

“Master, this is not good, I’d better study up there!”

Mo Di begged.

“It’s not as good as here up there, these drawings can’t appear outside, there’s no room for negotiation on this!”

Lin Tian was worried that there was no place for Mo Di to do research, and now the secret room just solved this problem.

Although Mo Di looked reluctant, he didn’t dare to disobey the master’s words.

He was also happy to study these things.

After all, there is no one in the Mohist School who doesn’t like the mechanical path. These things look very challenging, and Mo Di himself is eager to try.

“Let’s go out and see if there is anything else we haven’t discovered.”

Lin Tian and Mo Di walked out of the room, and Lei Ting and Lei Dian were still guarding outside the door.

“Master, when we were patrolling outside the room just now, we found a secret passage over there.” Lei

Ting saw Lin Tian and the others coming out, and reported the situation they had just surveyed .

“Oh, there is another secret passage, where does it lead to?”

When Lin Tian heard that there was another secret passage, he suddenly became interested again.

“Lei Dian and I walked for a while, but we didn’t reach the end, so we returned the same way.”

Lei Ting and Lei Dian walked for a long time, and felt that they had walked out of the scope of the Lin Mansion, so they turned back, thinking about reporting to Lin Tian before deciding what to do.

“Let’s go, get a torch first, and then go and see where the secret passage leads to.”

Lei Dian returned to the ground, made two simple torches, and then the four of them walked towards the secret passage.

The secret passage was pitch black, and Lei Dian was holding a torch in front, and there was another torch left as a backup.

The inside of the secret passage was sealed with cement. Although it was very rough, it was better than ordinary mud passages because it was cement.

Lin Tian felt more and more that this rich businessman had so much financial and human resources to dig out such a secret passage, and it was all covered with cement.

The group walked for a very long time, and it felt like there were ups and downs. The torch went out once in the middle, and a spare torch was replaced.

It was not until the second torch was almost extinguished that a little light was seen in front.

The end of the secret passage was covered with a pile of vines, and some sunlight came through the gaps. There was also a faint sound of water.

“Finally, we’re at the end!”

Mo Di breathed a sigh of relief. After walking for a long time, time would feel particularly long in the dark environment.

Lin Tian asked Lei Ting Lei Dian to split the vines at the entrance of the cave with a knife, revealing the outside world.

Light appeared at the entrance of the cave little by little, and the sound of water became louder and louder. When the entrance of the cave was completely cleared.

Everyone looked out and found that there was a naturally formed lake outside.

The entrance to the cave is on a mountain near the lake, and is covered with vines. If you don’t cut it open, you won’t be able to find the entrance at all.

“Master, where is this place?”

Mo Di asked Lin Tian while looking at the scenery outside.

“You ask me, who should I ask? I’m not familiar with it.”

Lin Tian really didn’t know it. He had just arrived in the capital, and he had never been to a place before. How could he know?

“Master, I think I know where this is!”

Lei Dian on the side suddenly said.

“Oh, you’ve been here?”

When Lin Tian heard that Lei Dian knew, it was great. After all, there was a secret passage, but if he didn’t know where it led to, it would be a waste of time.

“I only heard about it from people in the capital, and I’m not sure if it’s here.”

There has always been a legend in the capital, saying that there is a mountain outside the city. It used to be a volcano, but later it erupted and formed a lake. It is said that it was once the place where immortals lived, which made people yearn for it.

There have always been people who want to go in and take a look, but every time they go in, they can’t come back alive, saying that they offended the immortals and were left by the immortals as servants.

The mountain is always shrouded in smoke and wild beasts are rampant. No one dares to approach this mountain, so this mountain is called “Xianjue Mountain”, which means there are immortals, but people can’t enter.

Lei Dian was talking when suddenly a wolf’s howl came, followed by wolf howls one after another.

However, the four of them were martial artists, so they didn’t feel scared.

“Where is this Xianjue Mountain in the capital?”

Lin Tian asked Lei Dian, because knowing where it is, he can judge whether it is here.

“It should be 500 miles outside the west of the city.”

Lei Dian thought and recalled and answered.

Mo Di on the side looked at the direction of the sun outside, counted with his fingers, and said to Lin Tian.

“Master, according to our speed just now, plus the deduction of the direction, this should be the Xianjue Mountain.”

“Well, yes, this is a good secret place!”

This place is sparsely populated and wild beasts are rampant. It is a good place to conduct large-scale experiments and station troops.

Wild beasts are not a big problem. With the power of thunder and lightning, a few tigers can be killed casually.

And wild beasts are generally afraid of fire. As long as there are people guarding at night, they are not afraid.

It seems that this rich businessman has left a lot of good things for himself. He should also be a member of the Mo Sect, but I don’t know where he went.

It stands to reason that with so many good things, he shouldn’t suddenly disappear without a trace.

It seems that I have to find time to investigate this rich businessman. If he is dead, it’s okay.

If he is not dead, it will be a big threat to Lin Tian. Although they are both members of the Mo Sect, who knows how people’s hearts will change for the sake of interests!
