On Jiang Cheng's side, after returning from Luo Fan, it was really lively for a while, and the outside had been talking about that challenge farce for a long time.

In a small city in Hui Province, more than 2,000 kilometers away from Jin Province, in an elegant building house, Mr. Huo and Lao Jiu, who had run back from Jin Province, were standing in the hall, bowing their heads in a proper manner, listening to an old man's lecture.

The old man looked seventy or eighty years old, his hair was combed back with silver threads, and his face was red but he didn't look old at all.

It's just a yin owl on his face, and his fierce gaze makes people feel chills down his spine at an age that should be kind.

It felt like he was going to be angry and kill people in the next second.

Mr. Huo lowered his eyes, Lao Jiu raised his eyes and secretly glanced at the old man, and then glanced at Mr. Huo next to him, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

"Yan Qi, do you really see clearly that the person is holding the soul whip?" After a long time, the old man finally spoke.

It turned out that this Mr. Huo's name was Huo Yanqi, and the old man was his grandfather Huo Kunting.

The Huo family is also a big family in Huaguo, but they are low-key, and outsiders don't know them very well, in fact, they are also a famous feng shui family in Huaguo.

It's just that what they are engaged in is completely contrary to Luo Fan.

Luo Fan and the others are led by the Wushi Pavilion to do justice and solve problems, while the Huo family is the leader of the word and does everything they can, and tomb robbing is their main livelihood.

Pushed up for a hundred years, it is also an intolerable generation in the rivers and lakes.

"Although it was dimly lit, the whip that the young man was holding in his hand had exactly the same features as you told me. Huo Yanqi said slowly, "The sound made when shaking is like an old monk chanting a scripture piercing the eardrums, like the soul trembling, I think, it shouldn't be wrong!"

Huo Kunting picked up the tea bowl on the table, dialed the tea with the lid, brought it to his mouth and took a sip, and then covered it and put it on the table.

"Luo Qian has been led to the west by me, and he won't appear in Jin Province for a while, that person should be the apprentice he accepted in his later years. He said, standing up and walking to the gate and looking at the patio outside, "It is said that his apprentice is extremely talented, and it has been more than twenty years, and Feng Tianju and Feng Sheng's apprentices were also fifty or sixty years old, if it weren't for your father blocking Luo Qian's soul whip for me, I wouldn't have lived to this day." ”

Huo Kunting's words are not long, but the amount of information in them is very large.

Luo Qian's hurried departure from Jiangcheng was actually led away by him, and he talked about Feng Bugui's master and ancestor, which is enough to show that this person is not a simple old man.

"Grandpa!" Huo Yanqi said, "After so many years, don't mention these things again, your body is important!"

Huo Kunting sighed slightly, turned his head and smiled, "Forget it, I can't blame you for this matter, the cooperation between Jin Province and Jiangcheng is too tight, you go to the north to stay for a few days! It just so happens that they found an ancient tomb in the north, you follow over and have a look." ”

Mr. Huo still lowered his eyes, and his emotions were not obvious, "What about the ancient tomb in Jin Province?"

Huo Kunting was silent for a moment, "I will let someone take over, Ghost Shadow Four is missing now, and I don't know if it has fallen into the hands of the police, there has been no movement for so long, even if we are arrested, it should not have confessed to us." ”

Huo Yanqi raised his eyes to look at Huo Kunting's back, and replied, "Grandson knows!"

"Then go down and rest, and leave before they know it!" the old man waved his hand.

Huo Yanqi and Lao Jiu saluted and walked out of the hall, Huo Kunting was still standing at the door and looking outside, his face was gloomy like water, and his eyes were even more fierce.

"How many years have passed, there should be a break, you go to Jiangcheng, what is the relationship between that apprentice and that female policeman!" Huo Kunting said as if talking to himself, and then turned to leave, leaving a shadow that gradually disappeared at the door of the hall.

In the corner of the hall, the figure of a person was revealed, and he replied in a low voice, "Yes!" and stepped out of the door of the hall, revealing a plain face of thirty or forty years old.

......

Jiangcheng.

Luo Fan sent away all the people who supported Wushi Pavilion one by one before leaving from Guanglong Temple.

But he didn't go home directly, but followed Jiang Weichen and Yuan Lang to the museum.

After he sent a message to Yuan Lang that day, it didn't take long for Yuan Lang to come, and it was a lively time to see them, and he also met Bai Luochen by the way.

The four of them are like four good brothers, glued together all day long.

Now, Bai Luochen had to leave Jiangcheng to continue his errands, and the three of them drove to the museum in a car.

When they arrived, Professor Ma of the archaeological team of the Cultural Relics Bureau was talking to Jiang Ziwu, who had returned early.

"I'm back!" As soon as they saw Luo Fan and the three of them coming in together, Jiang Ziwu and Professor Ma immediately stopped talking.

"Professor Ma, let me introduce you!" Jiang Ziwu stood up, pointed at Luo Fan and said, "This is Luo Fan, don't look at his young age, it is necessary for you to find the location of the tomb accurately." ”

Professor Ma's eyes lit up, and he immediately stretched out his hand, "The young man is good, very energetic! Then this archaeological work will require you to work hard." ”

Luo Fan hurriedly reached out and held Professor Ma's hand, "Professor Ma is polite, Luo Fan will never hide his selfishness at that time!"

"Okay!" Professor Ma admired Luo Fan quite a lot, he was young, not arrogant or impatient.

"He is Yuan Lang, the son of Professor Yuan of Jiangcheng University!" Jiang Ziwu introduced Yuan Lang to him again.

Professor Ma also shook hands with Yuan Lang, "Tiger father has no dog, a bit of your father's demeanor!"

"Professor Ma has won the award!" Yuan Lang hurriedly said.

"Oh, you know me?" said Professor Ma.

"Yes, when I first joined the work, I specially went to listen to your lecture and benefited a lot!" Yuan Lang hurriedly said.

Professor Ma smiled and nodded, turned back to Jiang Ziwu and said, "Look at the young people now, they are much stronger than us back then, and with their joining, this archaeological work will definitely go very smoothly." ”

"Then I need a lot of help from you, an archaeological expert, let's go, go to my house for dinner first, and talk while eating." Jiang Ziwu is also happy that it is not easy for his favorite junior to be recognized by China's leading archaeological experts.

After a few more jokes, Jiang Weichen went to the office to say hello and went to Jiang Ziwu's house.

During the meal, several people talked about this mission.

"Although there will be someone from Jin Province to assist, we all understand the actual situation, they are really short of people, so although it is cooperation, it mainly depends on our side. Professor Ma said, "The ancient tomb that was first discovered over there has already been investigated by two people in the past and found some unusual places, so the above will give us this task." ”

Luo Fan and the others listened quietly.

Jiang Ziwu asked, "Unusual, is it stolen?"

"That's not it, there are still a lot of people who haven't had time to steal out, but the colleagues in Jin Province said that although it looks like a prince's tomb, the specifications are also in line, but the format of the burial goods is not quite consistent with the identity of the tomb owner, except for the batch that was seized before, which was stolen from the main tomb. ”

Yuan Lang and Jiang Weichen both nodded, they already knew this, only Luo Fan was still listening.

"Therefore, we asked them to assist in sending two researchers first, and according to the news they came back, there was still a mechanism in the tomb, and it was relatively intact, and in addition, another robbery hole was also found, and the police said that the main culprit escaped from there last time. ”

Luo Fan lowered his eyes and listened, recalling the situation in the tomb in his mind, according to the direction of the gossip, the direction in which Lao Jiu and Mr. Huo left was where Gen Weishengmen was located, and if the thief cave came in from there, no knowledgeable feng shui master would not be able to find the location of Shengmen.

Could it be that Mr. Huo?

"Luo Fan!" After Professor Ma finished speaking, he called out, pulling Luo Fan's thoughts back, "You have been in, can you tell me what you think?"

Jiang Weichen and Yuan Lang looked at Luo Fan together, he had been back for so many days, and he had gathered in Guanglong Temple for a while, but he didn't have time to ask him about the specific situation when he was in Jin Province.

Luo Fan straightened out his thoughts and said, "Their cave theft is very professional, and I think it has a lot to do with that old wine." ”

"Old wine?" Professor Ma frowned, "I have heard of this person, and I have taken over the archaeology of the tomb several times before, and he has his handwriting, but at that time, the Hunan Province said that in an operation to encircle and suppress the tomb robbery, that person died in the tomb mechanism, why is he not dead?"

Luo Fan didn't expect Professor Ma to know about Lao Jiu.

"You know this person, too?" asked Rovan.

"Old rivals, we'll talk about this when we have time," Professor Ma said, "and you go on." ”

"When I found them in a small house in the mountains, there were two openings, one leading to the small courtyard of the farmhouse in front of the mountain, which was very hidden, and the other leading to a tomb. At that time, I didn't look very carefully at the rescue, but now that I think back, according to the specifications of the tomb, the direction in which they fled was the Shengmen in the gossip. Lao Jiu is with a person named Mr. Huo, and that person should be a feng shui master!"

"Feng Shui Master?" Jiang Ziwu frowned, "Surname Huo ......"

"Old man Jiang, do you know?" Luo Fan hurriedly asked, "At that time, he also posted a thunder guide talisman in the tomb to plot against me, and I broke it. ”

Jiang Ziwu took a deep breath, "If it's the Huo family I think, I can't be wrong." ”

"Grandpa, don't talk and leave half a sentence, which Huo family is it, you should say it quickly!" Jiang Weichen urged.

Jiang Ziwu thought about it, changed the pot of tea, and waited until everyone had drunk a cup patiently before he slowly spoke.

"The Huo family, back then, was also an existence that could not be ignored in the rivers and lakes! They were also a feng shui family, but unlike others, they used their skills to rob tombs, not only that, but they also made evil magic weapons to make money and kill people, which can be said to be notorious in the rivers and lakes! At that time, I fought with Old Man Luo for many years, by the way, Lao Feng's master and ancestor were also the leaders of encirclement and suppression. ”

"Lao Feng's ......" Luo Fan didn't expect that there was such a thing, why had he never heard Luo Qian say it before?

"That's right, you should know how Lao Feng followed Old Man Luo, it's just that he was still young back then, and his master and ancestor lost their lives when they fought with the Huo family. In order to keep the only heir of their master's sect, your master had to endure this breath and return to Jiangcheng. Later, I picked you up outside Guanglong Temple, and closed the Wushi Pavilion. You'll know what happened next. ”

Jiang Ziwu's words were a little heavy, and Luo Fan was also a little uncomfortable in his heart, and suddenly remembered something, "Old man Jiang, do you think my master will have something to do with the Huo family when he goes out this time?"

"Hmm, why do you ask that?" Jiang Ziwu was stunned for a moment, "How many years have passed, and what should have been put down should have been put down a long time ago!"

Luo Fan shook his head, "I just have an intuition, the old man left suddenly, and now he can't be contacted, even last time Wu Zhen said that Ghost Shadow Four knew the whereabouts of my master, but Ghost Shadow Four committed suicide, and he couldn't get any news." ”

Jiang Ziwu nodded, "I think, since Wu Zhen has noticed the strangeness of your master's disappearance, he won't sit idly by, what should you do now, if your master doesn't tell you anything, it means that he doesn't want you to participate, you should do what he says." ”

Professor Ma listened to it in a vague way, and when Jiang Ziwu stopped talking, he asked: "The old man Luo you are talking about, is it the person who saved me in the ancient tomb in Yunnan Province sixteen years ago?"
