I had no choice but to let him in. Because what he said is right, I really want to find Chen Qingyi's whereabouts now.

Mr. Hong was also very polite after entering the door, this time he didn't sell Guan Zi again, but nodded and said: "Hello, let me introduce myself first, my name is Hong Chao, we have already met last time when we were in Fengxian Pavilion." โ€

Hong Chao came up and said his name, which made him seem less mysterious and invisibly shortened the distance between us.

I took him to sit in the living room, with General Panda Night by his side, I didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and asked him directly: "Where is Chen Qingyi now?" โ€

Hong Chao smiled slightly: "Mr. Yang is really an anxious person, I know the location of Chen Qingyi now, but it is not suitable for daytime passing." Chen Qingyi is a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff, even if Zhang Blind's betrayal makes him very angry, but he is still the most powerful person in Shanghai, you want to kill him, it is very rare. โ€

I smiled bitterly, didn't hide it, and told Hong Chao: "I don't want to kill Chen Qingyi, I don't have such an unforgettable hatred with him." My priority now is to find the whereabouts of the Shen family's treasures......"

And when I said this, a question resurfaced in my mind, and this problem was the relationship between Hong Chao and Hong Ming in Nanjing.

So I hurriedly asked him if he knew Mr. Hong in Nanjing.

I thought that this question was a bit sensitive, and Hong Chao should refuse to answer like Hong Ming, but to my surprise, Hong Chao smiled faintly after hearing the question and told me: "Since Hong Ming and I are both surnamed Hong, and we are both very interested in the treasures of the Shen family, this shows that of course we are connected." Mr. Yang, even if I tell you that we don't know each other, I'm afraid you won't believe it, right? โ€

As soon as I heard it, Hong Chao seemed to have the meaning of answering me. So I hurriedly asked, "Can you tell me, what is your relationship?" Why did it appear in this dispute over the Shen family's treasures? โ€

Unexpectedly, when Hong Chao heard my question, he suddenly stretched out his finger, waved his index finger slightly, and said, "Mr. Yang, you are asking this question too childishly. Our purpose is not just the Shen family treasure. The treasure of the Shen family is only the tip of the iceberg, and we are the relics of the ancients. โ€

Speaking of this, Hong Chao's gaze suddenly became sharp. A few of us were shocked.

The Shen family's treasure is such a huge artifact, and it is still small? The Hong family is actually the same as the Zhang family, a minority group before, and they are also ancient relics?

I leaned forward and listened quietly, waiting for Hong Chao to tell me what kind of ancient relics they were.

And Hong Chao did not hide it, and said eloquently: "In ancient times, there was a tribe called Gonggong under the Shennong clan of Emperor Yan, and since the reign of the Yellow Emperor, the Gonggong clan has been holding the official position of governing the water conservancy in the world. Later, some people in the Gonggong clan practiced with water and became a god and became holy, which is the famous water god and one of the oldest gods of the five elements...... You should all know these legends, right? โ€

We nodded slightly, these legends were already familiar to us.

Hong Chao saw that we knew, so he continued: "The Yellow Emperor Yan Emperor once fought for the power to rule the world, and the Yellow Emperor defeated the Yan Emperor and became a supreme god in ancient mythology. As the defeated party of Emperor Yan, the clans closely related to him were naturally suppressed, and Gonggong was one of them. In the Zhuan era, the Gonggong could not bear the cruel oppression of the Yellow Emperor clan, and rebelled. Later, in the blink of an eye, the Dayu era, the Gonggong rebelled again, but it ended in defeat again......"

When Hong Chao said this, he sighed, and seemed to be quite sorry.

Then he continued: "Dayu is not as merciful as Zhuan, after he defeated the Gonggong clan, the Gonggong clan was sent to the frontier and expelled from the Central Plains...... The descendants of the Gonggong clan have a deep affection for water, and they want to hide their original surname, so they add water next to the word Gongzi and become 'Hong', which is the origin of my surname with Mr. Hong in Nanjing......"

When Hong Chao said this, I finally understood.

Hong Chao and Hong Ming of Nanjing are both ancient relics, and their ancestors are the famous water gods who are angry and touch the mountains together.

Panda and I have heard the concept of "Ancient Relic" for a long time, and it is not until today that we know exactly the descendants of the first Ancient Relic.

Seeing that we were listening carefully, Hong Chao smiled slightly and asked, "Now are you willing to believe me?" โ€

I didn't nod in a hurry, but continued to ask: "Then what does the Ancient Relic Clan have to do with the Shen family's treasures?" โ€

Hong Chao didn't seem to know the answer to this question, he shook his head lightly, and sighed: "This is related to our Hong family is also exploring, when we were in Nanjing before, didn't Hong Ming give you a satisfactory answer?" โ€

Hong Chao is right about this, but I still suspect in my heart that he has reservations about us.

I asked again, since he is a descendant of the ancient relics, can he see through which god the relics on me and the panda belong to?

Hong Chao waved his hand again and again, saying that this was simply a fantasy. In ancient times, the gods were divided, what a surging scene? Now, thousands of years later, the bloodlines of the ancient gods have been completely hidden, and trying to find out the identity of our ancestors is simply looking for a needle in a haystack.

Panda and I were naturally disappointed when we heard him say this. However, this can't be forced, Hong Chao has already given a lot of information.

Hong Chao finished introducing his origins, so that he could share some things about the Shen family's treasures. His message coincided with Chen Qingyi's news, and he told us that we must snatch back the Shen family's treasure from Erzhang's hands, because the energy contained in this treasure can destroy the world.

You must know that a single treasure of the Shen family can achieve the magical effect of bringing the dead back to life, and now that the seven treasures are combined, it is obviously even more terrifying!

Speaking of this, General Night flapped his wings and flew up, turned around Hong Chao, looked at it for a long time, nodded and said, "Yes, this kid looks quite realistic." If we can really guide us to find Chen Qingyi, then the rest of the questions can be asked to Chen Qingyi's old fox......"

Hong Chao knew that General Night was the most scheming among us, so he hurriedly slapped a few words of sycophancy, saying that General Night had a beautiful coat and was in good spirits.

And General Night likes to listen to these flattering words the most, and was praised by Hong Chao, and immediately jumped on the coffee table with a smile to eat peanuts.

However, knowing that Hong Chao and Hong Ming are indeed a family, the long-standing doubts in my heart have been dispelled temporarily.

Next, Hong Chao told us about his experience in Shanghai. From his account, it is known that he is not actually from Shanghai, but from Anhui. Seven years ago, in order to get close to Chen Qingyi, Hong Chao came to Shanghai, and at that time, everything about the Shen family's treasures had not yet begun.

I asked Hong Chao, why did he lurk beside Chen Qingyi as an undercover agent seven years ago, could it be that he expected the Shen family's treasure after that?

Hong Chao shook his head, he just felt that Chen Qingyi had an identity and status, and he would definitely have an important impact on the future trend of the Hong family.

However, I didn't believe his perfunctory reason, because the Hong family still has a prominent capital predator like Hong Ming in Nanjing, and no matter how good Chen Qingyi is, he may not be looked down upon by the Hong family.

The reason why Hong Chao lurks by Chen Qingyi's side must have a deeper relationship.

I thought about it for a while, and suddenly I thought of the blind man.

How long has he been following Chen Qingyi? The reason why Hong Chao found Chen Qingyi was not Chen Qingyi, but Zhang Blind?

Of course, I didn't ask these words in detail, and now it's not a good thing to ask Hong Chao too hard.

In the evening, Hong Chao told us that we could act. Before Rouge Yaksha and Sister Rao had returned, we hurried out of the house.

Hong Chao drove a car himself, so our movement was quite convenient.

After this day's scrutiny, I roughly deduced that Hong Chao's combat power should not be too strong, slightly lower than that of Sister Rao and Rouge Yaksha.

Therefore, I can't help but worry, even if we really find Chen Qingyi, can we successfully restrain the emaciated camel with just a few of us: Chen Qingyi?
