It is not difficult for these soldiers to take a crystal coffin away, but the problem is: this is not a funeral home, but an ancient ruin. The base of the crystal coffin and the altar are polished from a single piece of crystal. To take it away, the two must be split, which will cause irreparable damage to the ruins. This is a crime of "damaging cultural heritage" in the Interstellar Law, and the responsibility is very heavy. Even General Ji, who has a prominent family background, may be sentenced to five hundred years of exile. Five hundred years ago, I don't know if I can return to the Pegasus galaxy alive.

The soldiers looked at the lieutenant general hesitantly, and the lieutenant general immediately pulled his boss aside and persuaded in a low voice, "General, this ancient tomb is the first ancient ruin discovered by mankind so far, and it must be reported to the Congress. If you destroy the crystal coffin and take it away, people from the Archaeological Society will definitely find it and then sue us. The old man's condition is getting worse and worse, and those red-eyed brothers in your family are worried that they can't catch you. Don't be confused."

"Who said it was going to be reported to Congress? Do you think those old people in Congress will really protect the ancient tomb when they know that there are many powerful antiquities hidden in it? You are wrong, their greedy nature will only be exposed and exhausted. Destroy the plunder by all means, and finally make it disappear completely. I can't leave him here alone." The man jumped on the altar and stared at the boy floating in the flowers and water waves with focused and obsessed eyes. He wanted him to sleep peacefully, undisturbed and harmed by no one.

"You mean we hide it or not?" The lieutenant general raised his eyebrows.

"You've never done anything that you don't report?" the man asked without looking back.

I did, and many more. Don't look at the general's resolute and upright appearance, in fact, the core has long been black, and he is the patron saint of the empire on the bright side, but in private he does whatever he wants and runs rampant. If this ancient tomb failed to arouse his interest, it would naturally be reported to Congress afterwards, but if he liked it, he would take it for himself, even by unscrupulous means. What "the king's palace belongs to" is just a beautiful scene, and can be summed up in three words - I don't like it.

The lieutenant general jumped on the altar, stared at the shimmering teenager soaked in the water, and sighed, "It's beautiful, no wonder you like it! Jessica, the idol star who has been in a mess recently, is a little less spiritual than him. I'm curious what he looks like with his eyes open."

The man really wanted to take off his military uniform to cover the boy, but he was worried that the dust on it would stain him, so he had to say coldly, "Go down, don't look at him!"

Isn't it just a corpse? What can't you see? The lieutenant general looked confused, but he didn't dare to lick the tiger's beard, so he jumped down angrily and said to several soldiers, "Go to the spaceship to find tools, and the general will take the crystal coffin away. This ancient tomb is the highest of the First Corps. Confidential, those who leak will be dealt with by military law!"

Several people were the confidants of General Ji, and naturally they obeyed him. They used the detector to find a vent, blasted it with a particle cannon, and got out.

The handsome man, Ji Changye, the general of the Empire's First Legion, finally turned his attention from the youth's beautiful body to the words on the altar. He opened his brain to scan one by one, hoping to learn the identity and name of the boy. However, there are too many gaps and breakpoints in human history. According to the existing archaeological data, the intellectual brain is completely unable to parse the information contained in these words.

But a scout made a new discovery and said in awe, "General, maybe our inference is wrong. The trace elements extracted from the stone gate outside show that the history of this ancient tomb is about 3,400 years old. , but the trace elements extracted from this crystal coffin, these columns, floor tiles, furniture, and porcelain have their own age. The shortest is 3,400 years, and the longest is 8,600. General, I am afraid that Not just the tomb of one dynasty, it is likely to be the tomb of many dynasties, and each dynasty has undergone a lot of repairs and reconstructions. This is not an ancient relic, but a more ancient ancient relic. "

"God, are you really right? Taikoo, that's Taikoo!" A blond, blue-eyed soldier pulled his hair excitedly. This discovery is too shocking, and if the outside world is known, it will definitely cause an uproar. He could already imagine the swarms of archaeologists from all over the Pegasus galaxy.

Ji Changye was obviously thinking of this, and his face gradually became gloomy. He must never let the outside world know this news, even if the boy is taken away, he will not let anyone destroy his palace and relics.

"Sleep in peace, I will guard everything for you." He put his hands on the sides of the coffin and said in a mellow and soft tone. If it was just an ordinary place without any energy fluctuations, the old things in Congress might send someone to protect it. But it is so special that all objects emit a powerful magnetic field of energy, especially teenagers. He didn't have to think about it to know that if he was handed over to the top, those fanatical scientists would use various methods to analyze this incomparably beautiful body.

They would cut off his cloud-like black hair, pierce his smooth jade-like skin, and even slit open his flat chest and abdomen. Those bloody scenes just surfaced in Ji Changye's mind, causing his vast spiritual power like the universe to start a storm.

Realizing that the liquid in the crystal coffin was stirred up by his own mental power, he immediately suppressed his frantic emotions and said with guilt, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I must restrain myself next time." He didn't want to treat the boy as a corpse. , In his eyes, the other party is just a sleep, even if the sleep is too long, it will be too long to wake up in this life.

"General, general?" The scout, who had been studying the frescoes and reliefs, hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Ji Changye looked back.

"Are you saying these frescoes and reliefs are realistic?"

"According to the archaeological community, the murals and reliefs in general ancient tombs record the life of the tomb owner. Some are realistic and some are exaggerated, but most of them should be realistic. What have you found?" Ji Changye also Wanting to understand the identity of the young man, he jumped off the altar and walked towards the palace wall.

"General, look at these walls. These walls are divided into several large plates. Judging from the characters and architectural styles on the plates, one plate is a dynasty. That is to say, our previous judgment was correct, this is the tomb of the kings of the past dynasties. But the strangest thing is: in every dynasty, there will be a young man, and his identity is very prominent. You see, this is him, standing on a tower to accept the worship of all people; this is also him, with a crowned man The men sat side by side on the throne; this, this, this... and this is the most amazing thing, he actually flew in the sky, and there was a city under his feet, and many people stood on the street looking up at him, the scene was very grand."

The scout felt that his three views were about to burst, and said in surprise, "General, didn't you say that ancient humans are very weak and have neither mental power, superpower, nor physical enhancement? How can he fly? This is physical and mental power. Something that can only be done by a special person who has reached the SSS level! This should be imagined by the ancients, right?"

Ji Changye stared at the frescoes and reliefs and did not answer for a long time. Although the patterns on the walls are very complex, including many animals, plants, figures, and buildings, the builders painted him very carefully in order to highlight the boy's image. His frowns, smiles, every move, and even every strand of hair were drawn and carved by brushes or carving knives, while the rest of the people, including the tall man standing beside him, were all vague silhouettes.

The boy was still so young, it was impossible to build a mausoleum for himself so early, so Ji Changye had reason to suspect that it was built by others to accommodate him, so everything around him became his foil. No matter who that person is, his feelings for the boy are never pure.

Thinking of this, he felt a suffocation in his chest for no reason, and thought to himself in disapproval: If you can spend so much energy building a cemetery for the young man, why not protect him while he is alive? If it were me, I would definitely not let him encounter any danger.

He stared at it for a while and said, "Scan the murals and reliefs, and after I go back, I will find a few reliable people to decipher them." As for the span of time, he couldn't find an answer for a while, and placed it on the flying sky map. , it should be imagined.

"Okay." The scout babbled while scanning, "General, I heard that the lifespan of the ancients is very short. The average lifespan of the ancients is one hundred, the average lifespan of the ancients is seventy, and the average lifespan of the ancients is forty. Five to fifty. I can hardly imagine it now!" Due to the continuous optimization of genes and the continuous enhancement of physical fitness, the average life expectancy of modern people is four hundred and fifty years old, and special people like generals can live to eight or nine hundred years old. Forty-five, it was still infancy for them, but the ancients died early.

"General, can I get some dander or hair so that I can check the age of this king? He looks so young, he should be only twelve or thirteen years old?" The scout walked to the altar with a salivating expression.

"Don't move him." Ji Changye's tone was cold and severe, causing the soldier to shrink his neck in fright.

While speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the lieutenant general led a few soldiers to run in quickly, pouring out many instruments from the space button. They are soldiers, and their space is filled with weapons and survival tools, but to dismantle a crystal coffin in the ancient tomb, they have to find more sophisticated instruments, so they went one more time.

"Before excavation, we also need to investigate the surrounding geology and magnetic field, otherwise it will cause more damage to the entire ancient tomb." The lieutenant will place detectors with different functions in the most suitable positions, and then place the detectors on the site. The four-dimensional map is input to ZhiBao so as to calculate the best cutting plan. Before that, they also had to build a top cover for the crystal coffin, so as not to damage the teenager in the water.

Ji Changye stood on the periphery, barely suppressing his inner excitement. The first time he saw the boy, he decided to take him as his own, even at the risk of being sentenced to exile.

"Wait, I'm afraid we can't take him out." The lieutenant general's words made him look slightly stern.

He said in a deep voice, "Why? You'd better give me a reasonable explanation."

"General, look at the magnetic field response map." The lieutenant general clicked on the brain and released the four-dimensional picture, "Just now we were only interested in scanning objects, not the ground. Look, the red area is the energy magnetic field, with the crystal coffin as the center, Form a unique figure, from the outer to the inner, the energy is more and more concentrated and stronger, as if the energy in the surrounding environment is continuously extracted to supply the liquid in the coffin to protect the king's corpse .If we cut off the crystal coffin, it is equivalent to destroying this energy magnetic field, and the result is likely to cause the rapid decay of the corpse!"

Ji Changye stared at the four-dimensional map, his eyes flickering uncertainly. This is an extremely complex and extremely symmetrical hexagram, surrounded by a circle, and inlaid with mysterious and ancient characters. Although it is not clear what it does, it can be guessed that each line of it is unique. Rules cannot be broken. No matter which line breaks, it will cause the disappearance of the energy magnetic field, and the liquid in the crystal coffin will become ordinary water.

"Is there any similar energy liquid that can replace this water?" he pondered, "I have several hot springs formed by ten-level energy liquid in my hand."

"I don't know. The tenth-level energy liquid is very destructive, and only special people can absorb and appease their bursting magnetic field molecules. Unless the king is also a special person, you can't soak with ten-level energy liquid. I don't know how the ancients did it. Yes, but the liquid in his crystal coffin is not of any kind we have found so far. Its molecular energy is huge, but it is very mild, so it can be used to preserve the corpse. It is estimated that this graphic also played a big role, but the specific I don't know what's going on, I can't find any information in my brain. Damn, there are more and more mysteries, and the wisdom of the ancients is really hard to figure out!" The lieutenant general couldn't help but swear.

Ji Changye, who had never been shaken by any danger, understood for the first time what anxiety was. He paced back and forth in the hall, and finally made up his mind, "Check his physique."

"Yes!" The curious scout immediately climbed up to the altar.

"Stand away, I'll come." Ji Changye took out a bottle of disinfectant from the space button, rubbed his hands repeatedly, and quickly evaporated the water droplets with fire-type abilities, and then he cautiously entered the crystal coffin. His expression was cautious, but his eyes concealed a little obsession.

"Don't waste your energy. He is ancient, no, maybe Taikoo, how could he have an SSS-level physique? If so, he must be a god of that era." The lieutenant general walked over slowly.

Ji Changye ignored him, and his fingertips approached the boy inch by inch. He clearly felt his hands shaking, just because he was afraid that a little heavier force would break the fair and smooth skin of the young man. Since he completed his last evolution at the age of ten, he has never been so embarrassed. Even if he is under a hundred times of pressure, even if he is seriously injured and dying, even if his mental power and supernatural power are exhausted at the same time, he can still stand like a mecha. .

The boy looked so petite and fragile, like a porcelain under the reflection of pearl and crystal. Ji Changye was not sure what kind of physique he was, and his mood became even more uneasy.

"Isn't it okay to have a single hair?" In the end, he still didn't dare to touch the boy's body, so he could only hold a strand of hair that was floating left and right. Because he was too nervous, a drop of cold sweat unknowingly flowed from his forehead, worried that he would fall into the coffin and contaminate the energy liquid, and immediately asked his subordinates to help wipe it off.

"General, this is the first time I've seen you look flustered." The lieutenant general said with a smile, "Although the genes in the dandruff are more and more stable, a single hair can do."

Seeing that the general separated a strand of hair with his trembling hands and snapped it off with his fingertips, he said again, "General, you want to wear hair follicles, you don't even know this, right?"

"Shut up, it will hurt to tear off the hair follicles! The military's detectors are very precise, enough to detect genes through hair without hair follicles. Fan Zhao, don't look for trouble." Ji Changye glared at his subordinates before pinching With that long black hair, he withdrew from the water. God knows how much he wants to touch the boy's fair skin, touch his thick eyelashes, and even hold him in his arms, but he dares not! He was afraid of breaking him.

Fan Zhao shrugged his shoulders and joked, "He will hurt? General, don't you forget that this king is just a corpse? I admit that he is really good-looking and doesn't look like a dead person, but he doesn't breathe. , heartbeat…”

"Check the genes immediately or downgrade, you choose one."

Ji Changye's tone was flat, but his unfathomable gaze made Fan Zhao shrink his shoulders, and quickly took the long hair and put it into the detector. Results came quickly - Race: Pureblood Human; Gender: Male; Age: ? ? ? ; Constitution: F; Mental strength: ? ? ? .

"It stands to reason that people can't detect mental power at all when they die. How can a machine show a question mark? Age is also a question mark, which is even more strange." Fan Zhao was puzzled.

Although Ji Changye was also very confused, the focus of attention was still on the physique column. F physique is the lowest physique, and physique determines the strength of supernatural powers, which means that young people cannot be supernatural powers, nor can they survive generations of dynasties as depicted in murals and reliefs, or even fly into the sky. He is a completely normal person.

Although he was mentally prepared, Ji Changye was still very disappointed, but he decided to try for the last time, so he carefully took out a flower of the other side and brought out the periphery of the energy magnetic field. The petals covered with water droplets quickly curled and withered until they turned into black ashes, leaving only a faint rotten smell lingering on the fingertips.

Ji Changye waved his hand gloomily, "Remove the instrument."

Everyone had expected it, and immediately put the instruments placed around the crystal coffin into the space button.

"General, since we won't tear it down, let's go?" Fan Zhao suggested.

"In accordance with the standards of A-level bases, monitors are installed around, and the authority is only set for me." Ji Changye ordered in a deep voice. From now on, he will not let anyone near here, but the home planet is the cultural heritage of the entire human race, and no military forces are allowed to be stationed, even sightseeing tours are not allowed. If he hadn't had the highest authority of the military, he wouldn't have gotten a general order to land on his home planet. Once back on the capital planet, he'll set out to buy the planet closest to his home planet and set up a few checkpoints to get there as soon as someone invades the tomb.

However, several planets near the parent planet are also natural and cultural heritage, and private transactions are not allowed, so we have to think about ways. Ji Changye jumped on the altar while thinking, and stared at the boy for a long time.

"General, the monitor has been installed and the permissions have been set. Please check." The scout installed the last monitor directly above the crystal coffin.

Ji Changye connected the signal to his own brain, adjusted every angle and every direction, and then leaned over and whispered, "Goodbye my king, I will find time to see you." He stared at the young man for a short while before he finally jumped off The altar went out, but turned back halfway and threw a flight monitor into the hall.

The flight monitor was specially used to monitor living creatures, and it was completely useless in the dead tomb, but for some reason, Ji Changye let it fly. Perhaps deep in his heart, he didn't want to believe that such a lively and agile boy would be a corpse after all.

A few energy stones were found in other tiankengs and barely charged with 30% of the energy. The spacecraft slowly lifted off and headed towards the Pegasus galaxy millions of light-years away. Ji Changye locked himself in the bedroom and dialed a number, "Now that medicine is so advanced, is there any way to bring a dead person back to life?"

"Yes, clone. But that's illegal!" A sleazy, scruffy man appeared on the screen. He is Ji Changye's hair Xiao Su Ming, and he is also the most famous medical scientist in the empire.

"Cloning can't be done." Ji Changye refused without thinking. He didn't need to use the juvenile's cells to create an identical-looking, genetically identical stranger. He wants to make the boy truly come alive, not only his body, but also his soul.

"Besides cloning, there is no way to bring a dead person back to life. That's not the category of medicine, but the category of theology." Su Ming scoffed at the so-called theology. It’s already the interstellar age. I didn’t expect that human beings still believe in Jesus Christ. I heard that there were more religions in ancient times, but they all disappeared in the era of extinction, because human beings who are struggling in the last days do not need belief.

Thank goodness! Su Ming shrugged, fortunately there was only Christianity left in the human race, otherwise he would definitely be driven mad by all kinds of absurd religious stories. Science, the interstellar era only needs to believe in science. It is science that has saved mankind from nearly extinction, and it is also science that has made mankind one of the most powerful races in the third universe.

"Aye, why are you asking such a question? Which dead person do you want to save?" Su Ming asked sharply.

Ji Changye cut off the communication signal and walked to the window to look at the vast universe, his eyebrows slowly tightened, showing an expression that was almost desperate. As soon as he arrived at the capital star, an emergency telegram came from the front line, and the federal troops were hoarding in the star port again, as if they wanted to start a war. After entering the interstellar era, human technology has developed at an unimaginable speed, and the demand for energy has reached a white-hot level. Once an undeveloped star cluster containing rich energy minerals is discovered, the major forces will compete.

This time the competition involved two tenth-level energy ore veins and dozens of five- to seventh-level ore veins, and the victory or defeat was even more important. Ji Changye did not dare to delay, and immediately called the fleet to set off, and entrusted the purchase of the planet to the steward.
