Chapter Ninety-Six: The Night Moon Curtain
Hearing this, Liu Zi's eyebrows tightened even deeper.
He didn't expect that he was invited to come!
This is possible, Liu Ziang and the fat man have considered.
But that's just a consideration.
If they were invited, it means that the inviter must be well aware of the origin of the Divine Division.
The Divine Division has never tolerated 'so-called' immortality.
The Xu family wanted to use the map to find Yaochi Immortal Island, mostly for immortality.
He took the initiative to invite the Divine Division?
It's not self-defeating.
Xu Ziru's 'mysterious man' surprised Liu Ziang even more.
Someone is trying to use the Divine Division?
Since ancient times, the Zhushen Division has only been directly appointed by the emperors who have entered the Central Plains in previous dynasties.
After the advent of the new era, the Divine Division was not subject to anyone's command.
Now someone with a heart is beating the gods?
For what?
Liu Ziang's heart sank slightly, and a sneer appeared on his face.
He didn't bother to care what it was for.
The existence of the Divine Division is only to punish the immortal evil!
"Want to secretly control the Divine Division? I'm sorry, but the Divine Division can't tolerate outsiders. ”
Liu Ziang secretly sighed, but his expression returned to calm.
Smiling at Xu Ziru, he opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know if this mysterious person in Mr. Xu's mouth, do you have any clues?" ”
Xu Ziru shrugged helplessly.
"Mr. Liu, I'm not afraid of your jokes. Although our Xu family has lasted for more than 2,000 years and has always had a good amount of power and wealth, it is the first time I have heard of the name of Zhushensi. ”
"After the mysterious man gave the address and the details of the Zhushen Division, the Xu family sent someone to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the Zhushen Division and the mysterious man."
He shook his head lightly at Liu Ziang embarrassedly: "The clues of the Zhu Shen Division are through some experts who know the Xu family, and some clues are obtained from the mouths of the high-ranking saint monks and strange people in the countryside. ”
"But that mysterious person, there is really no information, there is no way to check!"
This answer did not disappoint Liu Ziang.
Otherwise, the head of this huge family that has lasted for more than 2,000 years would not use 'mysterious man' to refer to the black hand in the shadows.
Smiling, Liu Ziang put the matter down for the time being.
Then he asked Xu Ziru curiously and tentatively: "Since you have investigated the Divine Division, you should understand what we do." ”
"Come, please, aren't you worried I'm going to make a mess?"
Xu Ziru took a sip of wine, her expression didn't show any change, and she still smiled politely.
"A friend has already told me in detail about the duties of the Divine Division."
"However, our Xu family wants to crack the map and find the Yaochi Wonderland, not to get any immortality."
"As far as I'm concerned, I don't believe in immortality. We just want to solve the mystery of our ancestors. ”
"I believe that Mr. Liu will definitely understand my distress."
It just so happened that one of the guards came over with a tray with a few glasses of wine.
Xu Ziru picked up a cup and handed it to Liu Ziang. The look is extremely sincere.
"Fate?" Liu Ziang was stunned for a moment.
Only then did I realize that the Zhushen Division and the Xu family were somewhat similar.
All of them have lasted for 2,000 years, and they are all burdened with the fate passed down from their ancestors.
Liu Ziang felt a little empathy, took the wine, touched Xu Ziru gently, and finally took a sip.
With the bitter wine in his throat, Liu Ziang suddenly spoke: "If I said that I came to steal the map, would you believe it?" ”
Xu Ziru was stunned for a moment, and then poured the wine clean in one gulp.
He just shook his head, but didn't speak.
Seeing him behave like this, Liu Ziang's heart moved slightly, but his face did not change.
Immediately afterwards, he changed the topic and asked, "By the way, the Xu family's research on Yaochi over the years has not been for nothing, right?" The woman you sent out to invite me. If you put it in ancient times, you can be regarded as the top master in the rivers and lakes. ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Xu Ziru's expression changed suddenly.
"Woman? What woman? ”
"I invited a friend from Xiangshi to send an invitation letter!"
Liu Ziang's expression also changed.
I was about to speak, but my thoughts raced and I closed my mouth again.
Then he waved his hand lightly to Xu Ziru: "Maybe your old friend specially invited a master to show his attention." ”
When Xu Ziru heard this, her face finally returned to normal.
"In any case, it is an honor for Mr. Liu to be here at the exhibition. I believe that with the help of professionals like Mr. Liu, we will be able to solve the mystery of the map this time. ”
After smiling politely at Liu Ziang, Xu Ziru said goodbye and left.
Liu Ziang responded with a light smile.
However, the next second Xu Ziru turned around, Liu Ziang's expression turned cold, and he whispered: "Old fox." ”
Xu Ziru seems to be sincere, but Liu Ziang understands it, and every word he says is true or false.
His words are credible for three points.
What Liu Ziang didn't see was that while his face was cold, Xu Ziru's face turned cold at the same time.
"Stealing maps? If you can get your hands on this map, I'd like to thank you. ”
After another half hour or so, the banquet ended.
Some people went back to the rooms on the second and third floors to rest and sleep, while others returned to the exhibition hall.
There were also people walking around the boat, chatting.
As Xu Ziru said, this is not only an art exhibition, but also a vacation place.
As for Liu Ziang, he naturally walked around the two-story exhibition hall.
With the 'little game' mentioned by Xu Ziru, the exhibition hall on the two floors is much more lively.
In front of each painting, experts and scholars carefully studied and discussed in a whisper.
Liu Ziang is the same, studying each painting, and sometimes joining in the discussion.
Most of the people invited by Xu Ziru are old pedants.
Although Liu Ziang is young, he has not been ostracized.
On the contrary, every time Liu Ziang puts forward a unique insight, it will attract a burst of amazement.
Until the evening, the map hidden in the painting was not found, and Liu Ziang had a good relationship with some experts.
Although the plan to steal the paintings was hindered, Liu Ziang was not much disappointed.
Being able to make friends with some old scholars will also be of great help in solving the secrets of the map in the future.
In addition, Liu Ziang also observed that there were other people who came on board one after another.
But no one left.
An afternoon was not fruitful.
There were no banquets in the evenings, and the banquet hall became a normal restaurant.
After Liu Ziang ate something at random, he went into the exhibition hall again.
But until nine o'clock in the evening, he still found nothing.
All the paintings in the exhibition hall have a lot of origins, and each one takes a lot of time to study.
Even if Liu Ziang is a middle school expert, he can't do anything.
Finally, he found a vacant room on the third floor.
Using the satellite phone to talk to the fat man, he told the situation on the ship, and after asking Xiao Ling'er about the situation, he lay down and rested.
The fat man also Liu Liu Ziang doesn't have to be anxious, the big deal is to wait for midnight two days later, and then start after the real map is taken out and exhibited separately.
This luxury cruise ship is built for the rich.
Each room has its own bathroom, and the appliances are complete, which is also convenient.
Time, fast passing.
"Ahh
At 12 o'clock in the night, an exclamation pierced the night and penetrated Liu Ziang's ears.
The Liu family of the Zhushen Division has always only slept lightly.
screaming into his ears, Liu Ziang suddenly opened his eyes.
"Bang bang bang!"
At the same time, there was an extremely rapid knock on the door.
"Help, help!" Urgent cries for help followed.
