Chapter 405: Underground Passage
"To tell you the truth, there really is. Tan Deming nodded, affirming Xu Le's words.
"Where is it?, can you tell me?" asked Xu Le.
Zeng Jinwen on the side couldn't help but sneer, this Xu Le also said that he was superstitious, and he didn't start to believe Tan Deming's words, otherwise, how could he be so nervous!
"Of course, I'm going to take you there, how can I not trust you, you think too much, how can I be so bad, don't think so badly, okay!" Tan Deming looked helpless, he stood in place for a while, like a child with a temper.
Xu Le was a little embarrassed, and even coaxed and deceived Tan Deming before he was willing to leave.
When they arrived at a small village, Tan Deming pointed out, "This place has not been moved, it is not deliberately built at all! It is all original, and it was like this in ancient times..."
Xu Le nodded, indeed, the decoration here has decayed, and it can be seen that after many years of wind and sun, it is definitely not completed in recent years.
"So, do you think it will be here?" Liu Lin frowned, looked around, he didn't know why, he always felt that this place was empty, and there would be nothing.
They went into room after room and finally chose to stay in one of them.
"This is my ancestral home. Tan Defeng looked around, and seemed to have some aftertaste.
He has been here many times, and every time he comes here, he feels more at home.
Xu Le looked at the "Guo Mansion" at the door and couldn't help frowning. "Aren't you surnamed Tan? Why is your surname Guo on this?"
He soon realized that something was wrong, and if it was in this era, it might be his mother's surname. But in the old days, it was impossible to take your mother's surname.
"My mom and I have last names. Tan Deming's eyes flashed slightly, and his expression was complicated, "My father is a son-in-law who comes directly to my mother's house, so I have to have my mother's surname." ”
Xu Le suddenly realized that there are indeed a lot of such things. Looking at Tan Deming's eyes on this room, it seems that he does have some feelings.
"Mr. Tan, is there any basis for you to bring us here by the way? Sometimes, it's not necessarily in your own home. Xu Le held his chin in his hand and looked around, the walls covered with spider silk were dirty, he didn't like this kind of environment.
It has to be said that he can understand why his ancestors ended up focusing on money. It's so dilapidated here, a straw brick house, very small, very cramped.
In addition, when it rains, it is easy to get wet.
A small bed, as if it had been smashed by someone, the wooden board in the middle has been recessed, and the gap in the middle is also very large, sleeping on it, it may be better to lie on the ground.
This kind of life, even if he is used to suffering, I am afraid he will not be able to bear it.
"I have never been to this place before, but this time it was quite a novelty. It's just that I think maybe people will really put things here, just because it's shabby, and it won't arouse suspicion. Liu Lin looked around and began to concentrate on looking for any clues.
"That's right, that's what I meant. I'm more inclined to his new home than my ancestors would hide things here. Tan Deming nodded and agreed with Liu Lin's words.
After receiving Tan Deming's appreciation, Liu Lin glanced at Xu Le, hoping that Xu Le would start to look at him with admiration because of Liu Lin's appreciation of him. It's just that this Xu Le seems to be a completely wooden man, and he doesn't think so.
Liu Lin lowered her head, completely devoid of the excitement just now.
"Really?" Xu Le nodded, he couldn't understand how a smart girl like Liu Lin could believe Tan Deming's words.
Before, he always thought that Liu Lin said this on purpose, in order to gain Tan Deming's trust, but now it seems that Liu Lin really thinks so.
"That's right, that's what I think anyway, I'm not that smart, but I'm also a descendant of my ancestors, maybe telepathy. Tan Deming said this to Xu Le, and he felt very uncomfortable.
The other two people gave him face very much, except for this Xu Le, they didn't say a good word, and every word seemed to choke him.
"That's right, in this way, I also think it's possible!" Xu Le saw that Tan Deming was not very happy, and began to follow Xu Le's words.
"But, Mr. Tan, which place do you think is more likely?" Xu Le looked around and began to ask, he was very curious, this Tan Deming would think that place was a place where it was possible to hide "treasures".
Tan Deming shook his head and patted his head, "I just didn't know, so I thought of asking you, I heard that the matter of the Cao family's tomb was solved by you, since you are so smart, I think it is really possible for you to know about this matter." ”
He looked at Xu Le with a sincere face, Xu Le couldn't help but be stunned, and began to wonder if he was too suspicious, this Tan Deming really didn't look like a bad person.
"You think too highly of me, Mr. Tan, where do I have this ability, the Cao family had a clear place before, but you are different, too amazing, I really don't know where to start. Xu Lexian explained that he didn't want this Tan Deming to pin all his hopes on him, so there was no doubt that this Tan Deming would be disappointed.
Tan Deming was not unhappy because of Xu Le's words, on the contrary, he seemed to be happy, he smiled, "Don't worry, I won't blame you, I believe you, you will definitely be able to find it, when the time comes, I will also give you a sum of money, how about we cooperate with antiques in the future? ”
He thought that his conditions were perfect, and there was no doubt that Xu Le would accommodate himself.
Where did he think of it, Xu Le refused without hesitation, on the grounds that the pressure was too great.
Zeng Jinwen on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and poked Xu Le lightly, "Oh, boy, don't be like this, it's rare for him to be willing to do this, and there is no harm in you agreeing, he also said that even if he doesn't find it, he won't be fine." ”
Liu Lin couldn't stand it, he had a good impression of Xu Le, of course he hoped that Xu Le could get benefits, and he also echoed it.
Xu Le saw that both of them began to cheer for themselves, and they couldn't cry or laugh, so they could only agree. Originally, he refused, but also to see how this Tan Deming would react.
"Well, since you all say so, I'll try, but I really don't guarantee it's going to work. Xu Le pointed to himself and gave them a preventive shot in advance.
"Don't be afraid, I don't blame you if you don't succeed. Tan Deming seemed to be a little impatient, and his attitude was far less than good as before.
Xu Le nodded, looked around, there was no space everywhere, except for a small cabinet with many bowls on it, and there were four or five in each row.
"Does this scholar have a lot of relatives?" he looked at Tan Deming with some curiosity.
He always felt that this bowl looked particularly awkward. How can such a small room accommodate so many people?
"No, he has almost no relatives, to be honest, my family is really thin, I don't know why, I don't think we have anything bad in our family!" Tan Defeng shook his head.
Xu Le's eyes lit up, and his face shone with joy. It seems that this bowl is the breakthrough.
He walked over to the bowls desperately, each one ready to pick up and look at it.
I saw that each of these bowls was broken, and some were broken in several places, which can show the poverty of their family.
But there is only one bowl, and nothing can be picked up. The corners of Xu Le's mouth rose slightly, it seemed that it was it! He twisted to the right, only to hear a movement.
"Where did this sound come from, it can't be an earthquake, right?" Zeng Jinwen heard a rumbling sound, and his face turned blue with nervousness.
"Probably not, how could there be an earthquake. Liu Lin didn't think so, he looked around, and there was no sign of an earthquake. It's more like, which mechanism is ringing.
Tan Deming looked at the bowl turned by Xu Le in disbelief, "Oh my God, no, this jade pendant is..."
"That's right, if I'm not mistaken, where will the door open, be careful. It's full of houses, and I guess the entrance is underground. As soon as Xu Le finished speaking, the floor suddenly opened, and he rolled down the stairs directly.
"Xu Le!" Liu Lin's face turned pale with nervousness, and he hurriedly ran down the steps, no matter what was below.
Tan Deming and Zeng Jinwen were also panicked, they looked at each other, and finally chose to go on.
After rolling for a long time, he finally landed, Xu Le's head hurt as if he had been beaten, and he took out the transformer in his pocket. This was originally intended for him to be used by others, but unexpectedly, he was put to use.
"Or do I have the function of an unpredictable prophet!" Xu Le looked at the mutant in his hand, a wry smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he laughed at himself.
"Xu Le, are you okay?" Liu Lin rushed over and hugged Xu Le.
Xu Le looked at the two lumps of flesh under his chin that were white flowers, and his heart was surging, as if his blood was rolling, like a huge wave in the sea.
"I'm fine. Xu Le shook his head, his hands on the ground, and slowly broke free from Liu Lin's embrace.
If he continues like this, he can't guarantee that he won't do something on the spur of the moment.
Thinking of the limitations of the galactic system, he burst into tears, isn't it embarrassing!
"Xu Le, Xu Le..." The voices of Zeng Jinwen and Tan Deming came from behind, they looked around, and finally saw Xu Le, who was sitting on the ground and didn't get up, and Liu Lin, who was half-squatting.
"It's okay, I'm scared to death, if something happens, I won't forgive myself in my life!" Tan Deming was so anxious that his face turned red, he walked towards Xu Le quickly, where did he think that something under his feet was tripped and fell to the ground like this.
He only felt that his bones were about to be numb, he covered his waist, crying with a sad face, and tears at the corners of his mouth, "Oh, my ***!"
