Capítulo 706: Chapter 717: One of the 4 Great Beauties
Upon hearing that Wang Yan intended to guess his way out of the Mist Forest, Ouyang Feiting couldn’t help but smile wryly, saying, “Brother Wang Yan, how can you possibly guess it right?”
Wang Yan smiled slightly and said, “Feiting, rember I just told you that once we know the master of this tomb, we will obtain the Heaven and Earth’s Strange Fire.”
Ouyang Feiting nodded and said, “But what does that have to do with getting out of this Mist Forest?”
Wang Yan replied, “Of course it’s related; if we know the master of this tomb, it will be very easy to find our way out of this tomb.”
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Feiting still seed confused and asked, “Brother Wang Yan, who is the master of this tomb?”
Wang Yan smiled slightly and said, “I already have a guess, and if we can get out of this Mist Forest, it will confirm that my guess is correct.”
As he spoke, Wang Yan pointed to the forest in front of them and said, “There are many fruit trees here, but there’s one type that’s very strange.”
Ouyang Feiting looked ahead and asked, “Which one is it?”
Wang Yan pointed to a lychee tree in front of them and said, “It’s this one.”
Ouyang Feiting said, “A lychee tree? What’s strange about that? Lychees are very common in supermarkets.”
Wang Yan laughed and said, “Nowadays it’s common, but isn’t it odd for it to appear in a tomb from hundreds of years ago? Now let’s follow the path with lychee trees and see what results we get.”
Wang Yan led Ouyang Feiting forward imdiately.
Everywhere they walked was beneath lychee trees.
After passing under hundreds of lychee trees, suddenly they saw in front of them a small hut, partially hidden above the trees.
“Brother Wang Yan, there’s a house there.” Ouyang Feiting exclaid excitedly.
Wang Yan also smiled slightly, pulling Ouyang Feiting through the foliage and arriving in front of the hut.
The hut was extrely simple, and around this hut remained dense forest, aning they hadn’t left the woods at all.
Seeing this, Ouyang Feiting was sowhat disappointed.
However, Wang Yan raised his hand, picked a lychee from above, held it in his hand, and said, “Let’s go inside and have a look.”
With that, Wang Yan led Ouyang Feiting into the hut, and inside they saw a person sitting.
This person was sitting in front of a wooden table in the hut, draped entirely in white veils, even covering the head, making it impossible to see the face.
At this sight, Ouyang Feiting couldn’t help but feel scared; she grabbed Wang Yan’s arm and hid behind him.
Wang Yan patted Ouyang Feiting and walked to the opposite side of the person, sitting down slowly.
At this mont, the person in white veils slowly raised their head, speaking in a hoarse voice, “I didn’t expect soone could find this place, quite lucky indeed.”
Even though they raised their head, the white veil still covered the face, obscuring the appearance.
Moreover, the voice seed very old and hoarse, making it impossible to discern whether it was male or female.
Such an eerie voice made Ouyang Feiting even more fearful, and she quickly hid behind Wang Yan again.
Wang Yan smiled slightly, raised his hand to place the lychee picked outside on the table, and said with a laugh, “Of course, it’s not luck.”
On seeing this lychee, the person draped in white veils trembled all over, and then the body seed to stiffen.
After a while, the person slowly said, “Why put the lychee on my table?”
Wang Yan smiled faintly and said, “Don’t you love eating lychees the most?”
Upon hearing these words, the person in white veils angrily said, “Nonsense, I don’t love lychees, how do you know I like lychees?”
Then Wang Yan said calmly, “In the dust, a single rider brings the beauty’s smile, no one knows it’s the lychee.”
Upon hearing this sentence, the person in white veils suddenly stood up, slapped the table angrily, and shouted, “Who exactly are you, do you know who I am?”
Yet Wang Yan did not answer but looked down at the person’s hand on the table.
The person was entirely covered in white veils, but the hand on the table was exposed.
The hand was seen as white and slender, clearly a woman’s hand.
Seeing Wang Yan’s gaze, the person hurriedly withdrew the hand.
Wang Yan raised his head to look at the person, saying faintly, “Besides the one who smiles and overwhelms the six palaces with her charms, Yang Yuhuan, who else could fit this tomb?”
Hearing the na Yang Yuhuan, the person in white veils couldn’t help but laugh heartily and said, “Hahaha, ridiculous, truly ridiculous, who told you I am Yang Yuhuan, I don’t know Yang Yuhuan, nor do I know who she is.”
And standing behind Wang Yan, Ouyang Feiting, who had been very scared, couldn’t help but exclaim, “Brother Wang Yan, did you say she’s Yang Yuhuan, one of the four great beauties? How is this possible?”
Wang Yan said, “Upon coming here, I discovered many suspicions in this tomb, and after guessing, finally understood that the person before us is Yang Yuhuan.”
At this point, the person in white veils seed to calm down as well. She slowly sat back and said faintly, “Alright, then I’ll listen to how you deduced I am Yang Yuhuan.”
Wang Yan said, “First, this tomb is extrely simple, yet possesses ten thousand armored soldiers’ Yin Souls. This is the first suspicion.”
The person in white veils said faintly, “What’s there to doubt?”
Wang Yan said, “During the Late Tang Dynasty, An Lushan rebelled, chaos spread across the land, people said it was because Tang Xuanzong loved beauty rather than his kingdom, causing chaos and the army’s tragedy. Therefore, these ten thousand Yin Souls, unable to find peace in death, lingered around Yang Yuhuan, your tomb, restless.
Upon hearing this, the person in white veils shivered but soon regained calm, saying coldly, “And then?”
Wang Yan continued, “Your tomb is extrely simple because Tang Xuanzong fled the Capital after being crushed, and encountered a mutiny while on the run, thus was forced to kill you. So, you were only hastily buried despite your status as a noble consort.”
The person in white veils started shaking slightly, seemingly very angry, but still gritted her teeth and said, “Alright, what else?”
Wang Yan seems to ignore her fury, still said faintly, “You loved lychees the most, therefore even this maze acts with lychees as the guide, I followed the lychee trees and found your location. If not Yang Yuhuan, who else wouldn’t forget lychees even in death?”
Listening to this, the person in white veils couldn’t help but laugh heartily, but the laughter was full of anger.
“Good, good, what you say is too good, so now, you can die.”
With that, the person in white veils raised a hand, tore off the white veil, revealing their true face.
