The night was still uneventful.

The next day, Baiyang called Ma Daocheng and told him that Ding Lingling was willing to meet with them.

Ma Daocheng was overjoyed, and when it was almost noon, Ma Bingxiao came to pick him up in person, and several people went out of the gate of the scenic spot at the same time, and saw a van parked outside.

At that time, being able to afford a van was very, very remarkable.

Xu is because Ding Lingling is the daughter of his Ma family's benefactor, Ma Bingxiao seems to be well-behaved, and he didn't even dare to say a polite word, just nodded and smiled with Bai Yang, and respectfully invited the two girls to get into the car.

Hongxing sat in the passenger seat, and Ding Lingling sat in the back seat with Bai Yang.

Soon arrived at the door of the hotel, Ma Daocheng and Ma Daoxian two brothers were waiting at the door, Ma Daocheng took a step forward, first opened the door of the passenger seat, and then opened the sliding door behind it.

Hong Xing got out of the car first, and said with a smile: "Sister Lingling is sitting behind!"

Ma Daocheng nodded and smiled at her, dozens of years old, he actually bent down and reached out to help Ding Lingling get out of the car, his face was full of joy, and said: "How many years, although I have not been able to see my benefactor, but today I can see my benefactor's daughter, Ma Daocheng is also very happy!"

There was a slight choking in his voice, which showed that his gratitude to Ding Sicheng had not faded at all after the washing of time.

Ding Lingling hurriedly said: "Uncle Ma, don't be like this! You are an elder, you don't need to be so polite to my junior, and besides, we don't have any benefactors and enemies in socialism!"

"Yes, yes!" Ma Daocheng hurriedly nodded, "I was so happy for a while that I forgot that several of them were state cadres, so I will trespass and call you Comrade Ding directly!"

Ding Lingling smiled and nodded, Ma Daoxian rushed to open the door of the hotel, Ding Lingling held Hongxing's hand, and Baiyang followed behind to go in together.

Naturally, he asked for the best box in the hotel, and Ma Daocheng and Ma Daoxian personally washed cups and poured tea for several young people.

Ma Bingxiao said: "Dad, young people nowadays don't like this, you make people very uncomfortable like this, let me do the matter of pouring tea and water!"

"Yes, Uncle Ding, we are not outsiders, don't be so polite!" Ding Lingling said.

Ma Daocheng sat down and let his son do the matter of pouring tea and water.

Naturally, she wanted to ask about the recent situation of her benefactor, and Ding Lingling answered truthfully.

Of course, there will be no mention of the tomb search team, only that Ding Sicheng is now a small leader of the archaeological team.

How could Ma Daocheng not know that Ding Lingling was humble. After all, if you are really just a small leader, how can you extend your hand to Gansu?

Therefore, Ma Daocheng was very emotional, and said: "When your father saved my brother's life, he was a few years younger than my two brothers, and we knew at that time that he would soar into the sky sooner or later! Now more than ten years have passed, and your father has become a big cadre, and he has taught you so well!"

"I don't have anything to offer, I'm just doing my job well!" Ding Lingling was embarrassed to praise.

Bai Yang said: "Aren't you good enough? You can understand all the ancient characters, but I didn't expect you to know English, and you are so fluent, I really don't know why you are so smart!"

He was sincere, but it made Ding Lingling blush even more and more, and turned her face to glare at him.

Fortunately, the waiter began to serve the food, which saved Ding Lingling from being embarrassed.

Naturally, several men drank baijiu, and the two girls asked for locally brewed sand date wine.

After a few glasses of wine, the conversation box opened, and the atmosphere seemed relaxed.

Ding Lingling asked with a smile: "Uncle Ma wants to see me, I wonder if there is anything you want me to bring to my father?"

Ma Daocheng exchanged faces with Ma Daoxian, and said, "There is one ...... I should say something very important!"

As he spoke, he nodded at Ma Daoxian.

Ma Daoxian immediately took a very high-end briefcase, took out a brown paper bag from it, stood up, and handed it to Ding Lingling with both hands.

"What is this?" Ding Lingling took the brown paper bag, but did not open it immediately, but asked Ma Daocheng with doubts.

"It's a long story!" Ma Daocheng sorted out his thoughts, "It was about ten years ago, that is, after your father saved our brother's life......"

When he first said this, Ding Lingling couldn't help but interject and asked: "Uncle Ma always said that my dad saved the lives of the two uncles, what is going on, why did my dad never tell me?"

In fact, this question Poplar is also very curious, after all, modern society has a stable life, and it is really difficult to imagine that it can rise to the grace of "saving lives".

Could it be that the scene where Ding Sicheng rescued this pair of old brothers was in the tomb?

Sure enough, Ma Daocheng sighed slightly and said: "Several of them are not outsiders, they should know that I, Ma Daocheng, used to be the head of the Shahai footman of the inverted bucket faction." Although I took over the position of head of the sect from my master twenty years ago, I have been committed to leading the transformation of the sect into a legitimate business, but ...... After all, this is a craft that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the old guys in the sect can't get rid of this for a while, so ...... Occasionally, when I hear that there is a big tomb somewhere, we Shahai footmen still can't help but make a move. As a result, just over ten years ago, we entered a large tomb, and in that large tomb, we encountered ...... Met ......"

He said "encountered" twice, but he didn't say anything else, but picked up his glass and took a sip to himself.

Ma Daoxian's face also showed a little pale, he reached out and patted his eldest brother on the shoulder, and said: "Our brothers were still young at that time, but there are not a few tombs that we have entered, and we have seen ...... What strange things, can't say too much, but we ...... I just haven't seen it...... That kind of thing!"

When he said this, he also took a breath of cool air, as if he was shocked in his heart and did not dare to continue.

"What the hell is it?" Ma Bingxiao couldn't help but ask.

Ma Daocheng raised his head to look at Ding Lingling, smiled bitterly and said, "Comrade Ding, don't laugh at our brothers for being cowardly, it's really ...... That thing should never exist in an ancient tomb!"

"What the hell is it?" Ding Lingling also asked curiously.

"That's a ...... Big living person!" Ma Daocheng said for a long time.

"Ah", poplar red apricot Ding Lingling looked at each other.

Ma Bingxiao jumped up and shouted, "There are living people in the ancient tomb?

"It is precisely because it is impossible, so more than ten years have passed, every time I think about this incident, your uncle and I will still shudder!" Ma Daocheng replied with a wry smile.

Bai Yang and Ding Lingling looked at each other, and both of them couldn't help but have the same thought in their hearts: "Could it be that the big living person in that ancient tomb has also taken immortal medicine?"

The two of them were just pondering in their hearts, and naturally they didn't say anything, but Hongxing blurted out, "What kind of living person is that?"

"Woman, why does the red girl think it's a woman?" Ma Daocheng asked rhetorically.

Only then did Hongxing realize that she was asking a little rashly, so she could only smile and say, "I'm thinking, did you see any illusions?"

What she said was definitely not the truth, at least Bai Yang knew very well in her heart why Hongxing would ask such a question.

Because Hongxing itself is the master of the Gleaning Gate, and the Gleaning Gate is said to be the descendant of the two female alchemists who refined the pills for Qin Shi Huang back then.

But one of the female alchemists is the Miao people, that is, the Biyou goddess who was killed by them before, and the Gleaning Gate is a Han sect, in other words, another female alchemist who has not yet revealed traces may be the ancestor of the Gleaning Gate.

It's a pity that Ma Daocheng shook his head and said: "It's definitely not an illusion, because there are six of us in total, and we can all see it clearly! And what we see is not a woman, but a man, to be precise, a middle-aged man!"

Bai Yang couldn't help but turn around again, and glanced at Ding Lingling again, and the same thought welled up in both of their hearts: It was likely to be the last male alchemist.

There are three male alchemists, two of whom are Taoists, and one of them is Qing Yunzi, the owner of the small Qin Dynasty tomb discovered by Bai Yang.

And the old man Yun, an expert in ancient cultural relics in the Qin and Han dynasties, who was killed before, according to Ding Sicheng, is likely to have excavated the tomb of a certain alchemist, and the reason why Old Man Yun was killed is precisely because he has the relics of that alchemist.

Ding Sicheng even said that Bai Yang's grandfather, Old Man Bai, probably excavated the alchemist's tomb with Old Man Yun.

With Ding Sicheng's careful thinking and accurate judgment ability, the possibility of error is almost zero.

In other words, so far, they have known the whereabouts of three alchemists, two men and one woman, and all three alchemists no longer exist.

There are only two alchemists left, a man and a woman, who don't know where to hide, whether they are dead or alive.

And the living person in the ancient tomb that Ma Daocheng and Ma Daoxian's brothers saw could only be the remaining male alchemist.

"How did you escape?" Ding Lingling asked again.

"As soon as we saw the big living person, we were already frightened, but the living person seemed to be ...... It's really a vast supernatural power, we don't know what's going on, and somehow we enter a fog. And in that fog, there are a lot of ...... There were a lot of ......."

Ma Daocheng didn't say "there are a lot of things" for a long time, so anxious that Ma Bingxiao interjected and asked, "What are the lots?"

"There are a lot of demons and monsters!" Ma Daoxian's face was as pale and blue as his brother Ma Daocheng, as if he was still terrified when he thought about it at the moment.

"Demons, monsters, how is this possible?" Ma Bingxiao jumped up again.

"We also knew it couldn't be, but at the time...... What we saw in our eyes was all some fierce and vicious strange things, and we didn't know what else to describe them except demons and monsters!" Ma Daoxian said.
