Chapter Twenty-Four: The Knocker Mechanism

The Seventh Master and I were standing by the underground river and had been chatting for more than ten minutes. In the dark, two people, two flashlights, face to face, carrying out the final negotiation.

No one is sure what will happen after the whole set of Han armor is gathered, even if it can be predicted, it cannot be controlled. The best way is to win over everyone around you, sit in the same boat, and feel much more at ease.

Gu family, only me and the second uncle are left, the seventh master must know the Budai monk very well, and knows that even if the old monk does not help him, he will definitely not go against him, not to mention, the seventh master will not do things that hurt the heavens and reason, such as allowing Xu Zeming to bury Han Jia in the Tai Chi halo.

It's just that I'm a little conflicted now, and I'm not sure if the seventh master in front of me is a good guy or a bad guy.

"I'm selfish." The Seventh Master looked at me and said, "You also know the secrets of the ten secret realms hidden behind the Han Jia, and my goal is not the Han Jia, but the ten secret realms behind the Han Jia." ”

I frowned: "The Ten Secret Realms, what are they?" It was able to let Gaozu Liu Bang hide in the Han armor for two thousand years, and no one had ever obtained this secret......"

"It has always been rumored in the circle that the so-called ten secret realms are ten great treasures in China and the surrounding areas. Of course, this treasure is also a title, and among the ten secret realms, there are many valuable places such as the Ten Thousand Years Lucky Cave, the huge gold mine, the ancient castle, etc., and it is said that there is also a mysterious medicine garden, in which the real immortal elixir grows. As for the authenticity, we don't know, but to let Gaozu Liu Bang hide behind the Han armor, countless emperors will compete with each other for two thousand years, these ten secret realms, must not be simple, the value of any secret realm, will exceed the entire set of Han armor. ”

"Hmm......" I nodded slightly, I roughly knew the mind of the seventh master, what he said was indeed right, his goal was indeed the ten secret realms, because with his identity, it was impossible to get Han Jia, but he could find some opportunities in the ten secret realms, such as the immortal elixir he said, or gold mines or something, these are more real than Han Jia.

"Xiao Gu, we can't be separated. It is also inseparable. The seventh master looked at me and said, "I know that you have a good relationship with Miss Liang, and you don't have a good impression of Xu Zeming, but no matter what, at the moment, Xu Zeming is the best backer." ”

"That's it, Seventh Master, I still want to act when the opportunity arises." I smiled bitterly and said, "What you said is good, but you should also understand that our Gu family is different from you, and it is precisely because of the difference that the path I chose has more ......."

The seventh master stared at me, as if he didn't expect him to talk for a long time, and I was not moved by him at all.

"Okay." The Seventh Master sighed and walked forward.

I turned around and followed, and asked again, "Seventh Master, you haven't said yet, what is the pig's head going back to the boat to do?" What is the purpose of signaling an old clam? ”

"Grab Hanjia." The Seventh Master seems to be unconcealed, and I also understand that the importance of the Gu family is fully reflected at this time, and the Seventh Master's non-concealment is actually to win my trust and cooperation, after all, just talking about the Hanjia operation, if it weren't for me, they would have died in the hands of the blood baby as early as the Cliff Beach of Forgetfulness.

"Rob Hanjia?!" I was stunned for a moment: "Is that really what you plan?" Want to go to an antique shop to rob Han Jia? ”

"Hah!" The seventh master was happy: "This robbery, not that meaning, not to rob your Gu family, but to grab your Gu family before Liang Dong, and win your second master of the Gu family, this is the best plan." ”

"Then why didn't you do it before?" As soon as I finished asking this question, I immediately "chuckled" in my heart and stoppedβ€”this question is so silly! I'm a little too slow to react! Obvious things: Now that I'm with the Seventh Master, I'm a person who has no power to tie the chicken and doesn't have any kung fu, and it's too easy for the Seventh Master to hold me!

Obviously, Lao Clam and Xu Zeming are using me to blackmail the second uncle and hand over Hanjia to them! As for Liang Dong's side, there are no chips now!

I have to say that Xu Zeming is really much higher than Liang Dong in terms of insidious and treacherous means! first concealed his relationship with the Seventh Master, and then made a scene with the Seventh Master and got involved; Later, at the auction, there was a seventh master who acted as an internal response and cheated a Hanjia as a bargaining chip; The last trick is to find the second uncle and take the other four Han armors when I am with the seventh master - in this way, as long as we successfully get the Chixiao Sword this time, as soon as we go ashore, Xu Zeming has a great chance of having a complete set of Han armor in an instant!

Even if you can't get it, I'll still be able to use it as a bargaining chip; Taking a step back, even if I escape, Xu Zeming still has a Han armor in his hand to press the bottom of the box, which is used to negotiate with Liang Dong! And Liang Dong, now it has taken half a day's work, but he actually has no chips in his hand!

This forty-year-old man with neatly combed parted hair and gold-rimmed glasses, white and pure, the depth of the city greatly exceeded my expectations.

No wonder, top masters like He Yunchang and Li Shuangyue are desperately following Xu Zeming. However, the second uncle's strategy is not simple, to say that the Hanjia operation has benefited the most, it is my second uncle who has never contributed and has been reaping profits!

"Heh, Xiao Gu, don't think about it, it's not that job!" The Seventh Master naturally knew what I was thinking, turned his head and said to me with a smile: "Just like you said, act on the opportunity!" Let's take a look at what's going on here! ”

I nodded, said no more, and continued to walk forward with the seventh master.

After this twenty-minute conversation, I was completely silent with the Seventh Master along the way, and I only had a wry smile left in my heart......

In the darkness, the footsteps of the two people seemed dull and hurried, and the light of two flashlights shone on the bank of the underground river in front, and soon, we saw a strange scene: I don't know when many head-sized holes appeared on the bank of the underground river, and the black holes inside were empty, and it was impossible to see where it led.

Roughly enough, however, the depth of these openings should be enough to penetrate the banks of the river and enter the water.

"The soil in this place is a little soft." The Seventh Master stopped, and was just about to bow over to look, when he saw two lights coming from not far away, it was Liang Ruoyi and Budai Monk walking over.

"You two are so slow?" The ice beauty walked over and glanced at me intentionally or unintentionally, and said in a complaining tone: "I came here after a detour with the master, and you walked in a straight line to get here." ”

"Did you find anything?" The Seventh Master's face was calm, and he had no intention of explaining this question at all.

"Those sculptures on the mountain wall, the dragon head is gone." Liang Ruoyi said and pointed to the holes in the ground: "I guess these holes are caused by those dragon heads." ”

"Good boy! How can it be! I felt a little incredible: "From here to the mountain walls on both sides, according to the time we have just walked, it is thousands of meters away, no matter how strong this dragon head is, it is impossible to smash a hole of this size here!" ”

"How did I find out that you seem to be a lot dumber this time!" Liang Ruoyi gave me a blank look: "First of all, we have been in the dark, the visibility of the flashlight is only about twenty meters, the flow direction of this underground river is not completely straight, and the road we walk will not be straight, besides, this cave is not a square, the sides are equal, and the distance between the mountain wall and the underground river will naturally not be the same for these reasons." The section of the road that I walked with the master just now, according to a rough estimate, is less than 200 meters from the mountain wall to here. ”

"Oh-" I was speechless by Liang Ruoyi's barrage of explanations, and reached out and patted my head: "I was wrong." ”

"Well, at 200 meters, it's entirely possible." The Seventh Master stepped on the soft sand, easily made a hole in the ground, and then bowed down, stretched out his hand and dug out a black hole, nodded and said: "That's right, judging from the traces left by this thing, it is indeed those dragon heads that ejected because I touched the door knocker mechanism." ”

After speaking, the seventh master stood up and looked at the underground river on the side: "In this case, it will be dangerous here......"
