Ma Lao approached the three-legged tripod and looked at it again, then turned his head and said, "It's really the same!"

"Teacher......" Mu Xue shouted, and Ma Lao nodded slowly.

"Anton, we do know something about the origin of this three-legged tripod...... Mu Xue pondered for a moment, and then spoke again:" In fact, I and the teacher have been studying these days, the full name of the three-legged tripod should be called the three-legged drinking dew cup, it is the product of the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, I found its origin in a wild history, it is said that it is a monk named Tao Zhongwen dedicated to Emperor Jiajing, the use is to use alchemy, from the shape and craftsmanship, this tripod has nothing special at all, it can even be said to be simple, not at all like the utensils used in the palace, Emperor Jiajing likes alchemy, we all know this, as for Tao Zhongwen......" Mu Xue suddenly stopped, and she glanced at Ma Lao again.

"About this Tao Zhongwen, it is said that this person is very capable, he likes fairy magic, can call the wind and rain, can catch demons, Emperor Jiajing trusts him very much, and he is also an official national teacher, of course, these are ancient feudal superstitions, let's not talk about this ......" Ma Lao waved his hand: "I checked some information, about Tao Zhongwen......" Ma Lao suddenly stopped, and then took off his glasses and wiped the corners of his clothes.

"This person is very capable, he can make the suspicious Emperor Jiajing trust him for the rest of his life, it is not simple. Ma Lao put on his glasses again: "Anton, have you ever heard of the insect master?"

Ma Lao suddenly asked!

My brain buzzed, and I instinctively shook my head.

"The profession of insect master is similar to that of alchemists, it is said that it evolved from ancient witchcraft, those ancient alchemists, Taoist priests, and shamans, the role is actually the same, they are all feudal superstitions, and the insect master I learned is actually to use insects to make some strange things to achieve the purpose of demagogic people. Ma Lao waved his hand: "Tao Zhongwen is likely to be an insect master." ”

"Ma Lao, I don't understand what you said. "I feel like my heart is pounding!

"You don't have to understand, to put it bluntly, Tao Zhongwen is using witch insect magic to alchemy. Ma Lao said with certainty.

"How do you know?" I asked.

"Check the information, there are not many others in our museum, there are still a lot of various historical materials, you don't know yet, Tao Zhongwen is actually our Jiangcheng native, of course, it was not called Jiangcheng at that time, it is said that his tomb is in Mulan Mountain, but it has not been found, and now I suspect that the cave is his tomb. ”

Ma Lao's words shocked me!

"You mean that the ancient tomb in the cave belongs to Tao Zhongwen?"

"There is no evidence, our archaeology wants evidence, there is no discovery in that ancient tomb that can prove the identity, this is just a bold guess of mine. ”

"My teacher and I have been discussing this, and we both think that this possibility is very high!" Chen Muxue continued.

I was nervous by Ma Lao and Chen Muxue's speculation, Tao Zhongwen was actually an insect master, and the tomb I found was actually Tao Zhongwen's! These speculations made me a little overwhelmed.

"Xiao An, can you tell us how did you get this three-legged tripod?" Ma Lao stretched out his hand and pointed to the three-legged tripod I brought.

"It's ......in Cloud City," I took a breath, and then I said it in detail, this time I didn't hide it anymore, and directly told Longxin Village, Taizihu, Panlong Island.

“…… My master and I found a tomb in the ancestral hall of Longxin Village, and it is likely that this three-legged tripod was stolen from that tomb. ”

"Cloud City...... Longxin Village ...... The ancestral hall ......," Ma Lao rubbed his temples and muttered.

"Are you saying that you and Dr. Wei went to that island, and there was a plague on the island, and everyone died?" asked Chen Muxue softly.

"Yes, I almost got sick too, and if it weren't for the master, I would have died. I nodded.

Although I told most of the truth, I still didn't say anything about Boss Mo's illness, after all, this matter is about Boss Mo, and I don't dare to talk nonsense.

"Teacher, we should go to Panlong Island to have a look. Chen Muxue suddenly said excitedly.

"Yes, you should go, will there be any connection between that tomb and the ancient tomb of Mulan Mountain, why do they have three-legged tripods in their tombs, all this is amazing!" Ma Lao was also excited.

"There's no need, that island has been sealed off, and you're not allowed to go. I said.

"I'll check it out later, I have a friend in Cloud City. Ma Lao said a word, followed by a slap: "I'll call him now!"

"Hey, Ma Lao, you ......" Ma Lao had already taken the phone and went out of the door.

"You're too anxious, aren't you!" I looked at Mu Xue and sighed.

"Don't be in a hurry, you must figure it out if you have a clue!" Mu Xue suddenly lifted the quilt and was about to sit up.

"What are you doing!" I pressed Chen Muxue.

"I'm going to be discharged. Chen Muxue pushed my hand away.

"What are you kidding, how can you get out of the hospital now!" I exclaimed.

Chen Muxue and I were arguing, and Ma Lao came back.

"What are you doing here?" asked Ma Lao.

"Teacher, how is it?" Chen Muxue asked anxiously.

"What's going on?" Ma Lao deliberately pretended to be confused.

"Teacher, don't want to leave me behind, I'm going too!" Chen Muxue said categorically.

"No, your body ......"

"I'm fine!" Chen Muxue straightened up, sat up from the bed, and followed her to hold her head with her hand.

"Look, I said no, I can!" I said angrily.

"Mu Xue, your task now is to have a good rest. Ma Lao hurriedly said.

"Teacher, I really want to go, you have to leave this matter to me. Chen Muxue said stubbornly.

"Okay, well, the teacher promised you, but you have to wait until you are completely healthy, and there is no rush in this matter. Ma Lao waved his hand.

"Alas!" I sighed, Ma Lao and Chen Muxue are actually the same temperament, in my eyes they are both that kind of sour and rotten scholars, I really can't understand them sometimes, what is the point of studying the past so thoroughly?

"Ma Lao, I'll hand over this three-legged tripod to you, it's useless to me anyway. Before leaving, I pointed to the three-legged tripod and said.

"No, it's better for you to keep it, this thing is yours after all, we don't have the right to ask for it, of course you can donate it to the museum, but the theft case has not been solved yet, and the museum is not safe, so it is safer to put it with you." Ma Lao refused.

"Yes, Captain Meng suspects that there are people involved in the theft in the hall, and we have to consider this. Chen Muxue also persuaded.

"Okay, I'll take it back first. "I put the tripod back in my bag.

"Xiao An, thank you for giving us a good clue. Before leaving, Ma Lao held my hand and thanked me repeatedly, Chen Muxue leaned on the bed without saying a word.

"Take care of your illness, I'm leaving. When I went out, I beckoned to Chen Muxue.

“…… Teacher, you still thank him, why didn't he tell us earlier, obviously he still has a three-legged tripod, why did he hide it?" I slowed down in the hospital corridor, and Chen Muxue's voice came into my ears.

I couldn't help but feel angry for a while, it turned out that Chen Muxue ignored me with a straight face for this!
