Chapter 138: The Great Master

Ye Zhiqiu was probably also attracted by this map, she looked at it for a long time and hesitated to raise her hand and point to a place: "This...... Isn't this where we live? ”

The general poked his head over and looked at it for a long time, pointed to the map and shook his head and said, "The shopkeeper's house is a little below, and this is the mountain behind the house......"

The general was stunned halfway through, licking his lips and looking at me in astonishment, shocked and puzzled.

This map and Ling Xi's body are hidden in the dark room, which shows how important it is to Ye Jiuqing, any place marked on the map has a special meaning, I understand the surprise in the general's eyes, there is nothing special in Ye Jiuqing's east mansion, but there is a Warring States tomb in the back mountain of the house.

It was there that I first met Gong Jue, and it was also from that Warring States Ancient Tomb that I first learned about the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace, I rubbed my forehead and sighed weakly, Ye Jiuqing not only concealed us, but also calculated us!

Ye Jiuqing is known as Ye Jiufeng, a phoenix without treasures, how could he choose a house casually, Ye Jiuqing is actually interested in this Warring States Ancient Tomb, he knew what was in this tomb from the beginning, he was just waiting for an appropriate time to open it, and at the same time, he was waiting for a suitable person to open it.

Ten years of sharpening a sword!

This is the reason why Ye Jiuqing spent fifteen years to let the masters who are proficient in tomb robbery take turns to polish me, and I am the key to opening this Warring States Ancient Tomb for him.

Although with Ye Jiuqing's ability, he didn't need to fake his hands to open this tomb at all, but I really couldn't understand what made him wait for so many years.

"I'm afraid everything is designed." The palace lord looked at me with a grim expression. "Since someone came to the lock shop to sell lock molds, everything was carefully arranged in advance, and Shopkeeper Ye borrowed my master's hand to find here."

I nodded silently, I don't know how Ye Jiuqing determined when this Warring States Ancient Tomb could be opened, now it seems that Gong Yu is a pawn in his plan, and I am the one he has been waiting for.

I suddenly couldn't believe that this was the Ye Jiuqing I knew well, the Ye Jiuqing who had indulged and loved me since I was a child and was strict.

In other places, I saw the marked Beibi Mountain, as well as the location of the Kunlun Golden Gate and the underground altar and ancestral shrine of the Aoki River, and every place we traced the Nine Dragons of the Moon Palace was recorded in great detail on this map.

And every place is connected by a red pen, it seems that Ye Jiuqing is trying to find the connection between these places, and while we are tracking down the Nine Dragons Boat of the Moon Palace, he seems to be tracking something.

"The colors of these annotations are different shades, and they don't look like they were written at the same time." Tian Ji looked at it for a long time and turned his head to us. "Judging from the shade of color, Lop Nur and the Warring States Ancient Tomb behind the house were marked at the beginning, and then the Jinluo Ditch appeared later, and the rest of the place should have been written recently."

"That's okay, the shopkeeper finally told us the truth." I smiled weakly, with an indescribable sadness that I never expected to be calculated by the most respected people. "The shopkeeper said that he didn't remember the Kunlun Jinque, it seems that he didn't lie to us, he wrote it on the map after listening to us."

"The underground altars of the North Mountain and the Aoki River, as well as the Temple of the Ancestral God, are the same, and the shopkeeper should not know about it in advance." The palace lord nodded and said. "But why did he hide so much, and why did he know about your father?"

"I don't know, but I know that this time the shopkeeper should have nothing to say." I turned around and walked out of the dark room in a low voice, and the others followed, only Ye Zhiqiu remained inside to accompany Ling Xi, who was sleeping for a long time, and I said to the general and Zhao Yan. "The shopkeeper is not here, you are in charge of the pawnshop, and the others are put aside in advance, the shopkeeper is full of people who have deliberately framed him, and you have to find a way to rescue him first."

"It's not that I haven't figured it out, the shopkeeper has eaten the official meal this time, I have found all the people I should be looking for, and I haven't done less before, it stands to reason that even if the shopkeeper can't be saved for a while, I can be accommodating and let me take a look." Zhao Yan slapped the back of his hand on his forehead. "But this time it's strange, no one answers, I've looked for all the people I should be looking for, and I can't see them in person, as if I'm deliberately hiding."

"Regardless of whether the shopkeeper was framed or not, after all, three lives were lost, and this is not a trivial matter." The general said to Zhao Yan. "It is estimated that the matter is too big, no one dares to take this stubble, the people on the white road think that we are the night pot, and when we use it, they remember, there is no need to kick it away, but the night pot is also expensive and cheap, you send more things to the people above, I don't believe that no one will come out to answer."

"It's really not about money this time." Zhao Yan shook his head and looked very embarrassed. "It's not a decimal number that I sent, but I can't see anything, who should I give it to?"

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, I asked Tian Ji to open the door, I saw a car parked outside from a distance, glanced at the license plate and knew that it was the official car, followed by Tian Ji was a middle-aged man wearing black-framed glasses, the pace was steady, and at a glance, he knew that it was an official person.

The middle-aged man stood in front of us and glanced at us, his eyes were inexplicably arrogant, those of us who couldn't get on the stage or even entered the stream, maybe he didn't want to look at us at all in his heart.

He took a bag from his bag and handed it over, everyone hesitated for a moment, and the general reached out to take it, and opened it to be a blood-stained garment.

"This is the clothes that the shopkeeper wore on the day of the accident." The general recognized it at a glance, and stared at the middle-aged man with low eyebrows and angry eyes. "What do you do? How did he have the clothes in charge, and where was he now? ”

Zhao Yan pulled back the menacing general, made a smile, and said in a polite voice: "My shopkeeper had an accident a few days ago, and his whereabouts have been unknown, you are holding his clothes, I don't know what to call him?" ”

"Ye Jiuqing is extremely vicious and suspected of robbing and killing people, the evidence of the heinous crime is conclusive and has been detained, Director Ma wants to meet the people in charge of the pawnshop in the Quartet and understand the situation, I just went to the pawnshop and said let me come here to find it." The middle-aged man said to us with his toes held high. "The car is outside, follow me."

Director Ma, I know, the people of the Public Security Department, Ye Jiuqing's tomb robbery is a shady business after all, and he can be safe and sound for decades, not how cautious he is, the rules that should be followed by those who should be on the white road, Ye Jiuqing has always understood the sense of proportion over the years.

Director Ma's name is Ma Yuecheng, I have met him a few times with Ye Jiuqing, a very introverted and deep and extremely sleek person, although he has nothing to do with Ye Jiuqing on the surface, but in private he has not received anything sent by Ye Jiuqing, Ye Jiuqing has been able to adjust the wind and rain for so many years, this person can also be regarded as a great meritorious.

But listening to the tone of the middle-aged man in front of him, it seems that something is wrong, taking people short and eating short mouths, Ma Yuecheng collected Ye Jiuqing's things, and also did a lot of things for Ye Jiuqing, to put it mildly, it is easy to get on the thief ship, and it is not so simple to go down.

What's more, Ye Jiuqing is not a fuel-efficient lamp, every account is remembered by Ma Yuecheng, there is really a day when he dares not to know what is good, Ye Jiuqing doesn't want him to be better, it stands to reason that people are there in Ma Yuecheng, we should breathe a sigh of relief, but this time I will label Ye Jiuqing with conclusive evidence and a heinous hat.

Ma Yuecheng has been in the officialdom for so long, and he can sit in the position of the director, he must not be a stupid person, he should understand the truth of cold lips and teeth, if he sends charcoal to Ye Jiuqing in the snow, he still remembers him, if he wants to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle, he should not think about it if Ye Jiuqing has something to do.

Listening to the tone, things were not as simple as we thought, and the general hurriedly stepped forward: "I'm in charge of the pawnshop now, I'll go with you." ”

"You're gone, maybe you won't be able to come back." Zhao Yan pulled the general back again, and said to the middle-aged man with a friendly smile: "About the pawnshop, I can still talk now, I'll go with you." ”

"Director Ma said, let the person in charge of the pawnshop go!" The middle-aged man looked at Zhao Yan in a cold tone.

"......" Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, turned around and looked at the general blankly, and then squeezed out a smile and said politely to the middle-aged man. You see a smile, the shopkeeper is not there, I can call the shots about the pawnshop, and I can also be responsible. ”

"Ye Jiuqing has confessed, let me say it again, Director Ma wants to see that the pawnshop is in charge, and it's useless for others to go, Ye Jiuqing's matter is not small, no one can save him this time." The middle-aged man glanced at Zhao Yan with some impatience. "You haven't checked it when we do? Your name is Zhao Yan, when did the courtier in the pawnshop become responsible? ”

"What's wrong with the court?" The general had a strong temper, and he never looked at the inconsiderate face of others, and said loudly. "Do you find out about the pawnshop? What are you, if it weren't for the shopkeeper today, I wouldn't have been able to smoke you. ”

The middle-aged man smiled coldly and ignored the general, Zhao Yan did not dissuade the general, and after thinking about it for a long time, his face suddenly changed.

"See the person in charge of the pawnshop...... Zhao Yan looked at the general, the general's face was full of anger, and suddenly froze, as if he remembered something, he and Zhao Yan looked at me together. Chaoge, I'm afraid you're going to have to go. ”

"Of course I want to go, but he said to meet the person in charge, when will it be my turn to be in charge of the pawnshop." I was at a loss.

"Speaking of which, the shopkeeper is not here, and you should be in charge of our Sifang pawnshop." The general's voice softened.

"When is it, you guys are joking with me, the shopkeeper is not here, isn't there Uncle Feng and you, after all, I am an apprentice." I was overwhelmed with my mouth open.

"Do you remember the pawn ticket that the shopkeeper asked you to stamp your handprint when you first arrived at the pawnshop?" Zhao Yan asked.

"How can I not remember, I will treat myself as a pawnshop after a meal." I nodded in reply.

"It's good to be broken, but it's not that you treat yourself as a pawnshop." Zhao Yan took a deep breath and hesitated for a long time before speaking. "It was the shopkeeper who gave you the Sifang pawnshop, that is to say, from the moment you pressed the handprint, the Sifang pawnshop actually belongs to you, the shopkeeper is not there, of course you are in charge."

"What!?" I didn't come back to my senses for a long time. "Ye Jiuqing is crazy, when he sees me, he will give me the pawnshop that has been in business for decades?"

"We also asked the shopkeeper afterwards, he was vague and didn't say why, only said that he was old, sooner or later there will be a time to close the mountain, the pawnshop can't be supported by no one, we are all old, and it is enough to follow Brother Ye in this life, no one wants to take over the pawnshop, so Brother Ye chose you." The general nodded to me and said. "We all know this, but Brother Ye won't let you tell you."

"Brother Ye is a scoop handle, but in fact, since you were seven years old, you have been the real shopkeeper of the Sifang pawnshop." Zhao Yan looked back at me, his voice was thick and affirmative, and he pointed to the house behind me. "Including this house, the shopkeeper and the Sifang pawnshop are all given to you."

I didn't say anything for a long time, a moment ago in the dark room of the house I was still thinking about why Ye Jiuqing was calculating, now I don't know if this is a calculation or not, but at least I haven't seen the calculation of giving me all the family property with everything.

I thought I knew Ye Jiuqing very well, but now I realize that I don't know him at all, I don't even know what he's thinking, and only he can tell me the reason and the answer to all this.

"I'll go with you." I buttoned up my clothes and said to the middle-aged man.

Gong Jue and Tian Ji didn't say a word and followed, I wanted to dissuade them, but I knew that they were worried that I would go alone in case I would be framed again, and I knew the character of the two of them and would not listen to what they said, so I smiled gratefully, but saw Ling Zhihan coming over with difficulty.

"I'll go with you."

"What are you going to do, I don't know if it's a Hongmen banquet, stay here to recuperate." I hurriedly stopped.

"Just because I don't know if it's a Hongmen banquet, so I'm going, the other party is a person on the white road, my aunt Su Ling's family still has some ability, the name of the earth master is not casually born, the more people in the official face, the more they dare not do anything to the Ling family, I will follow you to take care of each other."

"I'll go too!" Ye Zhiqiu walked out of the house.

"What are you going to do, I'll talk about saving your father, what kind of mess are you making." Looking at Ye Zhiqiu, my head is getting bigger.

"She can go, why can't I." Ye Zhiqiu pointed at Ling Zhihan seriously. "What's more, it was my dad who had an accident, why didn't you let me go."
