Chapter 172: A Transaction

Yuan Sunchen, a sorcerer more than 1,400 years ago. It's been a long time since I've been dead, but his name keeps popping up all around me.

The chaotic soul of the asuras, either clearly or confusedly, speaks of his past.

Regarding Yuan Sunchen's memory, he only remembered that it was the last person who imprisoned him and many soldiers in this tomb and trapped him alive.

He has some unknown connections with Empress Wu Cao, and like the most loyal dog, he has been driven to perform various tasks.

I listened quietly to his narration, and I had a general understanding of the name Yuan Sunchen, but I also had some resistance.

"The Dead." The heavy voice of the soul of the asura, the tomb rumbled, "He used to be a member of the Yuan family. His Qi, I am very familiar with. ”

"He lived 1,400 years?" I asked, puzzled.

"No one can live that long, and he is not alive." The voice of the Asura Soul began to get a little tired, "I'm getting less and less clear, young man, it's time for you to go. ”

"Can I take something from your coffin?" I got up and asked.

"What do you want to take?"

"Do you have a bronze in your coffin?"

"Bronze?" The voice raised some doubts, and continued, "When I was buried, there should not have been any bronzes with me. But... When I was asleep, it seemed that someone had come and put something in the sarcophagus. ”

"Wait. You say, someone has been here before? "I was amazed.

"Yes, I was still asleep and chaotic at that time, and I only vaguely noticed that someone had entered the tomb." The soul of the Asura said, "If there is no accident, it is a very good sorcerer. He walked through the side door, and did not awaken the souls of the eight hundred Shura in the tomb. ”

Is it a good surgeon......

"If I open the coffin, will it have any effect on the seal in this place?" I asked again. The sarcophagus exists as the eye of the Great Tomb Array, and I don't want to loosen the seal of the three demon apes because of Ji Hao's commission.

The Asura Soul was silent for a few moments, and only when I almost thought he wouldn't speak again did he speak again: "Are you talking about the suppression of the Demon Ape?" ”

"Yes."

"I don't know." The voice said wearily, "If that's possible, I hope it's true." It's been too long, it's time for me to get out. ”

I was speechless, and the voice stopped speaking completely. The corpse-turned-asura trembled, and suddenly jumped into the dark river, without making a splash.

Eventually, I pushed the lid of the rock open slightly, not daring to push it all down. Inside, there was a corpse dressed in a golden jade robe, which had been passed for thousands of years, but it had not decomposed.

I saw the bronze key on the corpse's chest.

It was like a copper plate, an almost straight card insert, very different from the current key. Shaped, like a bird with its wings closed.

I guess this is probably one of the totems of the Qin Dynasty Xuanniao, look closely, under the patina, there are some patterns engraved on one side of the bronze key, but the light is too dim for me to see clearly.

I hesitated, reached for the bronze key, and couldn't help but feel nervous.

It turns out that uncorrupted corpses do not necessarily turn into rice dumplings. After carefully taking out the bronze key, I finally breathed a sigh of relief next to the sarcophagus.

However, I also have a doubt in my heart, 1,400 years ago, could Emperor Wu Cao's suppression of the Eight Evil Spirits really not be broken? And more than 1,400 years later, will the evil thing that was suppressed really not die?

There were many doubts, but I did not stay in the tomb for long. As he hurriedly left, he carefully sealed the tomb of the Asuras, especially the frozen monster at the entrance.

Those stone statues and the ancient corpses in the sarcophagus, if they are discovered, get up one, something must happen here in Qinling.

When I left the tomb, it was already dawn. The expedition team had nightmares and looked listless, but no one paid attention to my exhaustion.

I contacted Ji Hao, and Ji Yining's helicopter arrived here half an hour later, and began the rescue operation in full swing - in fact, a cover-up work.

Professor Qin still got a scientific research grant from the Ji family, and the missing team members were also found, so he didn't do anything to insist.

Leaving the people of the Ji family and Professor Qin and others to clean up the aftermath in Qinling, Ji Yining and I got on the plane and flew to Nanyue City, where Ji Hao was located.

On the plane, I fell asleep groggily, holding the little pillow given by the flight attendant and sleeping in the dark, and after arriving, Ji Yining pushed me awake.

"Huh? Got to the place? I asked, yawning.

Ji Yining rolled her eyes: "Why don't you take the plane back again?" ”

"Don't, I want to sleep as soon as I get on the plane."

After getting off the plane, a car was already waiting. Ji Hao sat in the car, rubbing the ring on his finger unhurriedly.

"Mr. Lin has worked hard." Ji Hao watched me sit in with a slight smile on his calm face.

"Young Master Ji is really idle." I glanced at Ji Yining, who was in another car, "Miss Ji is not with us?" ”

Because of this incident, Yining specially applied for a period of leave from the UB peacekeeping force. Now that it's over, she has to go back as soon as possible. Ji Hao explained lightly, and at the end he added unintentionally or unintentionally, "Give up, you don't have a chance to be my brother-in-law." ”

Me: "??? You're sick??? ”

Am I that kind of person?

Ji Hao shrugged his shoulders and was noncommittal: "Did Mr. Lin bring me what I wanted?" ”

"Do you think it's on me?" I raised my eyebrows, looked at Ji Hao and said, "I don't think, Young Master Ji won't collect these things for the hobby of collecting, right?" ”

"It's not about Mr. Lin." Ji Hao said with a smile, "Could it be that Mr. Lin doesn't want to hand over things to me now?" ”

I snorted lightly and took out the bronze key in my pocket, for it had been in my clothes all the way and my skin was blue.

"It's better that it has nothing to do with me." I stared into his eyes and handed the bronze key to his hand.

Where there is a key, there is a lock, and where there is a lock, there is a door.

Ji Hao didn't know whether he was collecting eight bronze artifacts intentionally or unintentionally, last time it was a copper tripod and now it is a copper key. The copper lamp and the copper coffin are in Jiang Fang's hands, and there are four things that are missing, no matter where they are, it is conceivable that they will not be easy to find.

Ji Hao held the bronze key in his hand for a while, and from his movements, I couldn't tell how much he attached importance to this thing.

"Drive."

Ji Hao said, the car finally moved, and the driver drove the car out of the airport.

"Where?" I asked, "Invite me to dinner?" ”

It's my first time in Nanyue City, and I'm a little curious for a while.

Ji Hao let out a laugh: "If I'm not mistaken, it seems that Mr. Lin still owes me a meal, right?" ”

Forehead......

"I can't afford you right now." I leaned against the cushion of the car and said, "Now I have a few steel hammers on me, and I can't even find a single banknote."

Ji Hao shook his head helplessly, and asked another thing after speaking: "Has Anna been in contact with you recently?" ”

"Nonsense, we make porridge on the phone every day." As soon as I finished speaking, I immediately became vigilant: "Why are you asking this? You're not trying to get an idea from Anna, are you? ”

"Don't worry, I'm not going to do that kind of tasteless thing." Ji Hao chuckled, "It's just that I have to remind you that it's not that simple to be with Anna. It's not very simple that you like her, she likes you. ”

I couldn't help but be a little surprised when I heard this: "Young Master Ji is still starting to be my emotional counselor now?" ”

"Let me be an emotional counselor, can you afford this price?" Ji Hao laughed disdainfully, I rolled my eyes, looked at the rapidly receding street scene outside the window, and asked, "Where are you going to take me?" ”

"Don't you want to see Anna?" Ji Hao asked.

“?” I was a little surprised, "She's here?" ”

"I guess she didn't tell you that there was a party today, and a lot of people from the four families came." Ji Hao explained, "Her father came back from country M, and she came with him today. ”

After listening to Ji Hao's words, I was a little confused.

"This kind of occasion should be the exclusive session of the four of you, what am I doing there?"

Ji Hao glanced at me: "His father is a business tycoon in the land of Yanhuang, and when he came back from country M this time, he still had a young man with him. I sent someone to check, it was the son of a giant in the European arms underground trading market, why do you guess he would bring such a person to the gathering of the four families? ”

To be honest, before he could finish his sentence, my face looked ugly like eating a cockroach.

Ji Hao said it so clearly, if I don't understand it anymore, I will live in vain.

But why didn't Anna tell me?

"Anna probably thought she had handled it, so she didn't want you to worry." Ji Hao seemed to see through my thoughts and said, "However, in my opinion, she can't handle this matter." ”

"You want me to make a scene?" I asked.

Ji Hao shook his head and asked a little funny, "How much energy can you have?" Even if it is noisy, it is completely meaningless. However, in return for helping me get this, I can give you some help. ”

I wasn't surprised to hear that Ji Hao wanted to help me, otherwise he wouldn't have said such a bunch of nonsense.

What makes me care is that this is a very deep lord of the city, like a whirlpool, the more you are entangled by him, the closer you are to the core of danger.

"What do you want me to do for you?" I couldn't help but look at him amusedly, "Why did Young Master Ji catch me alone?" ”

An inexplicable smile appeared on Ji Hao's face, and he said, "It won't be a big deal, it's just helping you and helping me." So, the deal? ”

"Will Anna be in danger?" That's the question I'm most concerned about.

Ji Hao said: "Not necessarily, this is the reason why I want to take you there." If you're lucky enough, you should be able to show yourself in front of Uncle Song. ”
