Chapter 1306: Marquis of Wandering Words
"Hunhou? Is it a prince's tomb?"
Facing Luo Tianhe's question, the shopkeeper just shook his head, "I don't know the specifics, after all. The exact location of this tomb cannot be determined yet, but judging from the unearthed funerary objects, this large tomb is of high standard.”
“We have connections. I found a person who knew the inside story. It is said that this old gentleman has spent his whole life looking for this big tomb. The so-called Tomb of Hunhou was also the first to be revealed from his mouth, but he was more willing to use the name Hunhou Tomb than Hunhou. Another name refers to the mysterious owner of the tomb."
After a pause, the shopkeeper's expression became serious: "Hou Yanyan."
For some reason, the moment these three words were spoken, several people in Jiangcheng suddenly felt a gloomy wind blowing against their faces, but it only lasted for an instant. The next second, everything returned to the same as before.
“We need to meet this old gentleman, please introduce him.”
Jiang Cheng surrendered to the shopkeeper. Everyone can be sure that this is just a few words repeated by the shopkeeper. The Tomb of Hou Hou that the old gentleman was referring to was the Tomb of Blood Corpse.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper looked embarrassed, but he still nodded, "I'll try my best, but we haven't seen this old gentleman before. He has a very weird temper, and his whereabouts are also erratic. It's hard to figure out. "
"It doesn't matter, you just need to bring the message to us, and then... please bring this thing."
Jiang Cheng said and took the wooden box containing the dressing mirror from the fat man. Seeing this scene, Luo Tianhe and Yuan Shanyuan's eyes became subtle. They had always coveted this dressing mirror, but due to various obstacles The reason is not easy to rob, but if this thing falls into the hands of the shopkeeper, it will be hard to say.
But Jiang Cheng stopped their thoughts with one action. Jiang Cheng took out the dressing mirror from the box, put it away close to his body, and then handed the wooden box to the shopkeeper and told him: "You only need to give this Just give the box to the old gentleman, I think he will be willing to see us. "
The shopkeeper didn't ask any more questions, put away the box, and agreed.
After everyone was settled, the shopkeeper left with the wooden box and the portrait. Jiang Cheng and the others simply stayed at Bao Mo Zhai without going back to the hotel, waiting for news. Fortunately, there was an empty room here. It's enough, there's still room for two people.
After resting all day, we had a good sleep at night. This was the first time since we entered the mission that everyone slept so peacefully.
It wasn't until early the next morning that the shopkeeper came to the door with someone.
The person who accompanied the shopkeeper was a man. Although he was wearing a long gown and a top hat, he still had a rough look, and the sharpness in his eyes was even more impressive.
The brim of the top hat is set very low, presumably to hide the identity.
"Everyone, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Liu San. I entrust him with the things you have entrusted to me."
Jiang Cheng clasped his fist at the man, "San Ye Ye.”
Liu Sanye waved his hand, and later returned the favor with a cupped fist to Jiang Cheng and others, "You're welcome, we are all brothers from all over the world. Besides, I have heard about you. In order to get rid of the traitor Song Keli, I am willing to go deep into the tiger's den and risk myself. I admire you from the bottom of my heart, Third Master is a title given to me by brothers on the road, so just call me Liu San.”
Jiang Cheng and other talents would not be ignorant of the compliment, and they all called San Master briefly. Afterwards After sitting down, Mr. Liu got down to business and spread the portrait on the table. "I have confirmed the person in the portrait. His name is Liu Xueyi. He is a native of Shanghu. Despite the righteousness of his name, he is actually a digger behind the scenes." Buy and sell, and… This person has disappeared for a long time."
"Disappeared..."
Everyone had an ominous premonition, and it seemed that the clues they had finally obtained were about to end here.
"Please rest assured, your affairs are my Liu San's business. I have mobilized the brothers in the gang to find the person. I am not boasting, Liu San. As long as the other person is still in Shanghai, within seven days, I will I must bring people to you!”
Mr. Liu Sanye is worthy of being a figure in the world and speaks loudly, but several people in Jiangcheng sigh inwardly. They can't wait for even three days, let alone seven days. The most important thing now is time.
But thinking about it, with someone like Mr. Liu San in charge, even if the second young master really comes to find him, it will only be a disappointment, and their safety can be guaranteed for the time being.
Suddenly, there was a soft sound outside the door, like clothes rubbing against the door. Liu Sanye was very vigilant. He touched his waist with one hand and stood up quickly, "Who is it?"< br>
The next second, the door opened naturally, leaving the little boy alone looking at everyone in a daze, holding a sesame seed cake wrapped in oilcloth in his hand, and the sesame seed cake was still steaming.
The fat man figured it out instantly. In the morning, he joked with the boy that he wanted to eat sesame cakes. The boy generously patted his chest and said that he wanted to treat him to eat, but... he didn't expect that he actually bought it.
The fat man immediately stepped forward to comfort the frightened boy. At the same time, he explained to everyone, don't panic, this is the person they brought. After hearing this, Mr. Liu slowly put down his hand on his waist. Jiang Cheng took the opportunity to look at Liu Sanye's waist was bulging, obviously he was hiding something, and it looked like a box cannon from the shape.
Jiang Cheng knew that people like Liu Sanye were extremely suspicious, and letting the boy leave now would definitely arouse unnecessary suspicion, so he simply asked the fat man to carry the boy in. Unexpectedly, as soon as the boy approached the table, his eyes He couldn't help but stare at the portrait on the table. The next second, he said something that shocked everyone, "This is not The ghost face in the Blind Toutuo Temple? "
"Ghost face? "
This word "ghost" instinctively scares everyone, and what's even weirder is that such a thing comes from this little boy's mouth. , now Luo Tianhe, Yao, Shunyu and others also noticed that something was wrong, and their eyes on the little boy became subtle.
Now Mr. Liu was a little confused. After all, he was also a well-known figure in the green forest. In his own territory, a child pointed out the person he had not found, but the boy could No matter so much, he said to himself: "Fat brother, I have seen this man before. When there was no food to eat, we would go to the Blind Toutuo Temple to steal tributes to eat. It was not just me, but also other children. I had seen this man in the temple, but his appearance was much scarier than the portrait. His face Half of it was rotten, which scared me to death. At first we thought we had seen a ghost.”
"Third Master, do you know the location of the Blind Toutuo Temple?"
Liu Sanye nodded, "Yes, it is an abandoned temple on a barren mountain not far outside the city, but it is said that it was once very popular. Spirit, so people still come to worship from time to time. "
" Please send someone to check this temple. "
Before Liu Sanye left, the boy was also clamoring to go, saying that he would definitely find this person. , half convinced and half doubtful, Liu Sanye agreed. (End of this chapter)
