None of us asked for news of the old clam, although I would have liked to see him, and we were born and died several times, and now that he is injured, I am also concerned. But when the seventh master said that he was cooperating with Xu Zeming, I didn't want to ask him. Another point, Chai Lao Wu and they did not appear, and the Seventh Master told me personally in Yashan Sea Palace before that Chai Lao Wu and they had already cooperated with Xu Zeming, why did they not appear this time?

After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms, and the next morning they had to go back to prepare for their next move.

I looked at the silver-haired second uncle sitting on the bed: "Second uncle, is it true that premature aging?" ”

The second uncle smiled bitterly: "Xiaorui, we are a family, we are all surnamed Gu, there is no need for me to lie to you about this kind of thing." In fact, I have been suffering from premature aging for a long time, but I just didn't tell you. This is one of the reasons why I am not married. Also, don't you think the wine in my wine gourd tastes a little weird? ”

I was stunned: "Huh? I just think the aroma of the wine is a little strange, and it's nothing else......"

"That's right." The second uncle nodded: "My wine has several precious Chinese medicines added to it, so the aroma is somewhat special, and it is not intoxicating." ”

"Alas......" I sighed: "According to what you say, the phenomenon of Progeria in every generation must be advanced, and in my generation, it is estimated that it will really appear in my thirties." ”

The second uncle didn't speak, and I also knew that this topic was a bit heavy, so I asked: "By the way, second uncle, the top ten secret realms, do you want to participate?" ”

"I won't participate until I am needed." The second uncle smiled: "The shop in Jinan still needs me to watch, since you graduated this year, I have also taught you a lot of things, plus your own experience outside, you can already take on a big responsibility." After a while, after these things are dealt with, I will teach you some knowledge of the antique shop, and it is estimated that in two or three years, you can take over as the owner of the Gu Ji antique shop. ”

Well, why did this atmosphere suddenly become sad, and the second uncle began to think about when I would take over.

"Don't think too much about the second uncle, you are only fifty years old, and it is no problem to live to be more than a hundred years old!" I stood up and snorted, "I'll go to the Seventh Master to have a look." ”

After that, I walked out of the room, came to the room of the seventh master and the pig's head, knocked on the door, and the pig's head quickly opened and let me in.

The Seventh Master was sitting at the table studying the ten maps, his brows furrowed slightly. When he saw me come in, he didn't speak, but stretched out his hand to beckon me to sit across from him.

"Seventh Master, how is the research?" I asked with a smile.

"Not good." The Seventh Master shook his head: "I can at least conclude that I have never seen these places, and I have no impression at all." It is also possible that we are wrong, and it is not Jin Sushan at all. Although, they are similar. ”

As he spoke, the seventh master took a tablet next to him, on which was the floor plan of Jinsu Mountain that the pig's head made for him, and after zooming in, we could see three peaks. Comparing these three peaks with the one on the map, they are almost exactly the same, but there is one more peak on the map.

"Will it ...... It is true that this mountain does not exist. I said, "Just to confuse us?" ”

The seventh master shook his head: "It shouldn't be, you know, the Han Jia and the Ten Secret Realms left by Gaozu Liu Bang are used for their descendants, and they are hidden deep enough, how can they get some pretense to confuse it, the biggest possibility is that the lines were originally different, but we didn't notice it; Either that, this picture is not Jinsu Mountain at all. ”

I nodded and simply asked, "Seventh Master, ten years ago, you and Ge Wei went to Jinsu Mountain?" ”

The seventh master was stunned for a moment, but he no longer concealed it: "That's right, I've been there." ”

"Why where to go?" I then asked, "Looking for the dragon carved jade plate?" ”

"Huh!" The seventh master smiled bitterly: "Speaking of this, it's a little funny." The purpose of our visit to Jinsu Mountain that time was not for anything else, but for the Sun Moon Lotus. ”

"Sun Moon Lotus?" I wondered, "Isn't this thing in the Tianshan Medicine Garden?" ”

"That's the way the legend goes." The seventh master nodded and said: "But at that time, Ge Wei said that he heard it from an old man, saying that someone in Jinsu Mountain had seen Sun Moon Lotus, so we rushed there non-stop." Because at that time, the toxins in our bodies had already begun to spread, and if the three of us hadn't spent a lot of energy and medicinal materials to suppress them, we would have died long ago......"

"And then?" I looked at the Seventh Master and asked, "What kind of poison did Ge Wei get into, and what would he become?" There is also a dragon carved jade plaque ......"

"At that time, we didn't enter the Chengling hanging coffin, but we passed through from the side and saw a corner of the Chengling hanging coffin." The Seventh Master continued: "We weren't poisoned that time, Ge Wei was because he accidentally fell into a puddle of water, and his skin began to fester, which is not the same as the poison we had before. As for the dragon carved jade plaque, I didn't see it at the time, it was found by Ge Wei and Master Budai in a cave, and I only learned about it after many years. The dragon carved jade plaque has been placed on Ge Wei's body, and until now, we don't know what this thing is for. ”

Heh, what's the use? The second uncle used it to open the iron box, and also found a second complete dragon carved jade plate!

I smiled bitterly in my heart, but it seems that Chai Lao Wu still has reservations about Xu Zeming and the Seventh Master, and they didn't tell the Seventh Master about the iron box and the dragon carving jade plate. Think about it, Chai Lao Wu and their late Qing Dynasty secretaries, how could they tell the seventh master about the iron box they were looking for!

However, when I think of this, I instantly feel that something is wrong: more than a hundred years ago, the six secretaries of the late Qing Dynasty frantically fought for this iron box, and they should know what was inside. Those two dragon carved jade plates may have nothing to do with the ten secret realms. Reminiscent of the dragon blood ink jade has always been in the hands of the royal family, these two dragon carved jade plates should be inextricably linked with the emperor......

"Ge Wei's death, we are also very sad......" The seventh master saw that I was silent, thinking that I was thinking about the day when Ge Wei was killed in the coffin of Chengling.

I nodded, sighed, and asked softly, "By the way, Seventh Master, Chai Lao Wu and them?" Why didn't he appear with Xu Zeming? ”

"They're there." The seventh master's words surprised me: "But because they don't have a good relationship with us, they haven't shown up, and when we leave, Xu Zeming will use another time to entertain them." ”

"But aren't they going to cooperate?" I frowned: "Ten Secret Realms...... That's right, Li Shuangyue also has a map in his hand! ”

The seventh master looked at me with a smile, and also felt that I was a little unresponsive: "That's right, so in the next action, we are likely to meet Chai Lao Wu and them, although Xu Zeming and I are friends, but it is more accurate to say that business partners, he only needs two percent, and he is probably still unwilling in his heart." Chai Lao Wu and they should be looking for the Ten Secret Realms with Xu Zeming's support, and if I guess correctly, there will be one person from Li Shuangyue or He Yun Chang who will follow Chai Lao Wu and them, just like Liang Dong asked Liang Ruoyi to follow us. ”

"But what about Hanjia?" I hugged my arms: "Chai Lao Wu, they also want Hanjia!" ”

"Think about it, Chai Lao Wu and them, what do you want Hanjia to do?" The Seventh Master asked rhetorically.

I was stunned: "That's right, the Qing Dynasty has long since perished, what's the use of wanting Hanjia?" There are still three of them left, and it is estimated that they do not have the intention of rebelling and claiming the emperor. Could it be that there are still people behind it? ”

"That's how it should be." The Seventh Master nodded and said: "Being able to find Hanjia and the Ten Secret Realms for so many years, there must be a consortium or other strength behind it, of course, it is also possible, it is for faith." Xiao Gu, I have a question that I have always wanted to ask you. ”

I was stunned: "What's the problem?" ”

"At that time, you were taken to the Qingyue Taoist by Chai Lao Wu and them, and after you escaped, you said that the Qingyue Taoist told you to find that Xiu'er senior." The Seventh Master looked at me and said, "I've always wanted to know, Chai Lao Wu and them, what do they want to get from the Qingyue Daoist?" ”
