"Okay, I'll take it!" Tang Yin is also a smart person, and he immediately guessed what the three Zhou family wanted, and he would do the same.

And when he came to visit the Zhou family this time, he also knew that the Zhou family was in trouble, and Zhao Feng investigated the Zhou family in great detail.

"Tang Yin, you are the apprentice of the ancestor of the family, how about you deign to be the honorary elder of the family?"

A third-rate family no longer has much power, and there are even many successful businessmen who have more influence than a third-rate family.

What's more, now that the family is in difficulty, and it has even reached the point of starvation, of course, we must try to find a way to get Tang Yin to help as much as possible.

Become his own person, Tang Yin can't sit idly by.

Therefore, after a little consideration, Elder Taishang decided to give Tang Yin the title of elder, and it was difficult to satisfy Tang Yin by investing money in him.

"Okay!" For Zhou Donglin's sake, Tang Yin agreed.

When Tang Yin first started to learn painting, if it wasn't for Zhou Donglin's teaching, Tang Yin would not have progressed so fast.

Receiving a drop of water should be repaid by Yongquan, but it is no longer possible to repay Zhou Donglin's kindness, so he can only repay his descendants, so Tang Yin easily agreed, although he knew that the honorary elders of the Zhou family would not do him much good.

"In this way, I will call you Elder Tang in the future!" Zhou Dingkang was overjoyed, he was also trying to find a way to turn Tang Yin into his own, but he didn't expect Elder Taishang to take the first step.

"Elder Tang, as far as I know, you are very good at painting, don't you know if you are good at painting?" Zhou Dingkang spoke.

"I've practiced before!"

"Great, Elder Tang, can you take a look at a painting?"

"Okay!" Tang Yin nodded in agreement.

Zhou Dingkang asked him to see what paintings, he already knew in his heart, the recent trouble that the Zhou family has encountered is because of a painting.

Zhou Dingkang immediately walked into the study, and soon took out a painting, carefully removed all the other items on the coffee table, and then unfolded the painting on the coffee table.

"There is actually a painting under the painting?" Tang Yin could see at a glance.

There is a means of protecting paintings and calligraphy, which is to disguise one painting on top of another painting.

And now the painting that Zhou Dingkang took out is such a painting, on the surface one painting is a painting from the late Qing Dynasty, and then under this painting, another painting is covered.

It's just that the painting above is damaged, it looks like it has been eaten by insects, and the surface is damaged without biting through.

There are traces of ink scattering in the damaged area, and it looks like it has been soaked in water, which seriously affects the value of the chemical.

"Elder Tang really has good eyesight, if we find out earlier, we won't get into big trouble......" Zhou Dingkang said with a wry smile.

"What's going on?" Tang Yin asked.

"It all started three days ago...... "Zhou Dingkang didn't hide it.

The Zhou family is good at painting and calligraphy restoration, and even has its own unique technology, which is very famous in the circle.

Just three days ago, a person named Cao Mengsheng brought a painting, which is now on the coffee table, and entrusted the people of the Zhou family to restore it.

The damage to the painting was not serious, it was not difficult to repair, and I didn't suspect any traps at the time, so I just got back to work.

When repairing, a restoration solution specially configured by the Zhou family is used, which can soak the paper while ensuring that the ink on the paper will not spread and will not damage the original painting.

But I didn't expect that something went wrong this time, and when I repaired it, there was a problem with the repair solution, and a lot of bubbles came out, so that a large piece of ink spread.

After emergency treatment, it was found that there were two palm-sized ones

The film has been ruined, and it is so completely destroyed that it is impossible to repair it back.

However, because of the abnormal reaction of the repair solution, the paper was layered, and it was discovered that there was a picture-in-picture, and it was a very precious painting.

The painting hidden below turned out to be a shrimp fun picture of the old man Shiraishi, and it was the work of the old man Shiraishi at his peak.

There was no choice but to contact Cao Mengsheng.

Cao Mengsheng was born, and he was immediately furious.

Indemnify!

The Zhou family was willing to compensate at the original price, and even proposed three times the compensation, but Cao Mengsheng disagreed and insisted on asking for 100 times the compensation.

At this time, Cao Mengsheng also revealed his identity, and turned out to be a member of the Cao family in Longmen, and the Cao family is a second-rate family, much more powerful than the Zhou family.

"Have you promised compensation?" Tang Yin asked.

"Of course I can't agree, the two ancient paintings are valued at 100 million, if the compensation is 100 times, wouldn't it be the entire Zhou family to be compensated?" Zhou Dingkang shook his head.

As a third-rate family, the total of all the industries may only be billions, which is not enough to compensate at all.

What's more, he felt that he was tired, and the restoration liquid that their family had secretly passed down had been used on at least hundreds of paintings and calligraphy, and there had never been a problem.

It was used on the painting that Cao Mengsheng brought and there was a problem.

After his inspection, there were a small amount of chemicals on the calligraphy and painting that Cao Mengsheng brought, and it should not exist on the calligraphy and painting at all.

It is a small amount of chemicals that react with their Zhou family's repair solution to cause the nature of the repair solution to change, so that a large part of the painting is destroyed.

He thought it was a trap arranged by the Cao family.

The purpose is very simple, that is, to swallow their Zhou family.

"Do you suspect that they did it on purpose?" Hearing Zhou Dingkang's explanation, Tang Yin carefully looked at the painting on the coffee table again.

"I'm sure they did it on purpose! The problem is that the Cao family's power is much stronger than our Zhou family, and there are three people in our Zhou family, and they have been arrested by the Cao family!" Zhou Dingkang said through gritted teeth.

The Cao family's people acted too fast, and they were too ruthless.

By the time they found out, the person had already been taken to the Cao family, and the Great Elder had brought someone to the door to theorize, but the result was directly closed.

The Cao family told them that they would either pay 100 times the compensation as required, or they would wait to receive the ashes of the three Zhou family members.

The three people who were arrested, one was the son of Zhou Dingkang, the other was the grandson of the Supreme Elder, and the other was the daughter of the Great Elder.

The Cao family didn't arrest people casually, of course, they had to arrest important people, in case a strong man from the Zhou family broke his wrist.

"It's a bit excessive!" Tang Yin's brows furrowed slightly.

Before the establishment of the Occult Society, it was normal for major forces to fight and kill each other, there were no rules at all, and a big fist was the rule.

However, although there are still inevitable conflicts between the major forces, they must be within certain rules.

Just like what the Cao family did, arresting and threatening the people of the Zhou family would violate or fail to meet the rules of the family.

"Didn't you notify the Occult Society?" Tang Yin asked.

"I didn't dare to inform it, the people of the Cao family spoke, they didn't leave any evidence, as long as we dare to notify the Occult Society, we don't have to expect the three of us to come back!" Zhou Dingkang said hatefully.

The Occult Society must have some evidence.

If the Cao family left no evidence, even if they knew that it was the Cao family's arrest, the Occult Society was helpless.

"What are you going to do?" Tang Yin looked at Zhou Dingkang.

Since Zhou Dingkang took out the painting and told Tang Yin what happened, he naturally wouldn't be happy, he must have asked for something.

For Zhou Donglin's sake, as long as Zhou Dingkang's request was not too excessive, Tang Yin decided to help.

When Tang Yin was at Zhou's house, in an independent courtyard on the outskirts, Ye Qiuyue and the envoy stood in front of a charred ruin.

"Did you find anything?" the envoy asked Ye Qiuyue.

"Nothing has been found, I have had people search carefully, and there was no one in the yard at all when the fire caught fire!" Ye Qiuyue frowned.

She and Zhou Lankun had a little unpleasant quarrel, but at the request of the envoy, she had to provide Zhou Lankun with some help.

Every day, her people would send some daily necessities.

At the end of the treasure appreciation show today, Ye Qiuyue suddenly received a call from her subordinates, telling her that something was wrong.

Zhou Lankun's stronghold in the suburbs has become a piece of ashes.

Ye Qiuyue immediately rushed over as soon as possible, notified the envoy when she was on the way, and searched as soon as she arrived.

The search results disappointed her, and she found no suspicious traces, no one was burned to death.

Before the inspection was finished, the envoy arrived.

"Do you have any clues?" the envoy frowned.

He was sent to deal with this matter and give Zhou Lankun a chance to make meritorious contributions, but he didn't expect that something would happen before he could make meritorious contributions.

Now Zhou Lankun's whereabouts are unknown, but he has a bad premonition, I'm afraid that Zhou Lankun is no longer alive.

"On the first day that Zhou Lao came, the immortal beacon was snatched away, and the person I sent out to help him arrest someone also had an accident, obviously being targeted!"

"You mean those people did it?"

"I just think they're the most suspicious!"

"Do you think they will know about the Eternal Life Project?" the envoy groaned slightly, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Since they snatched the Beacon of Immortality and stared at Zhou Lao, I suspect they know, but I don't know how much they know!"

At this time, inside the underground building under the orchard, in a room full of various electronic instruments, Mo Qianfeng was being inspected by Mr. Hu.

"Mr. Hu, has my second potential stimulation stabilized?" After the inspection, Mo Qianfeng couldn't wait to ask.

The potential stimulation ceremony is not achieved overnight, and is divided into three stages.

The first stage is the most important stage, which is to stimulate the potential of the body with precious energy, and it is also the most painful stage.

The second stage is the growth stage, which is followed by a three-day rapid growth phase after the success of the initiation ceremony.

The third and final stage is when the strength gradually stabilizes after three days of growth.

The consequences of failure at any stage are severe.

"Congratulations, you've stabilized!" Mr. Hu showed a rare smile, because Mo Qianfeng was a work that he was very satisfied with.

"Really?" Mo Qianfeng showed a look of joy on his face, and muttered in his heart: "The surname Tang and the surname Tang, you two will wait for me!"

There was a direct conflict between him and Tang Bohu, and there was also unhappiness between him and Tang Yin, but now that he has the ability, of course, he must have revenge for injustice.

Of course, he didn't know that the two were actually one person, and that they were too powerful for him to mess with.

"Of course it's true, I guess you want to do it to people, I'll give you a piece of advice, be sure to do what you can, you have just gone through two stages of stimulation, your strength is not very strong, if you meet a powerful person, you will be in trouble!" Mr. Hu looked at Mo Qianfeng, he thought that Mo Qianfeng was a very good experimental subject, if something happened, he would have to choose a new experimental subject, which would waste a lot of his time and energy.
