"Back to China?"

Ma Yu jumped up from the sofa and looked at Professor Shen Fei's face, very surprised.

Ma Yu never imagined that Professor Shen would call him back to China.

But he immediately understood what Professor Shen meant.

Staying in the United States will not help to unravel the mysteries of these characters.

There are only two leads at the moment.

One is Krypton, and the other is China.

Krypton will definitely not be able to go, so he will have to go back to China.

Yes, I'm going back to China.

Only by returning to China can it be possible to crack the mystery in the circle of Chinese culture.

In order to unravel Malak Kent's origins, I am also going back to China.

I'm going to bring this child back to the land where I was born, and I'm going to take him to Chinese culture to find the answer.

Although Ma Yu has no worries about food and clothing in the United States over the years, he often misses his motherland.

Especially after becoming famous in recent years, he has deepened his idea of returning to his roots.

Professor Shen handed the ancient book to Ma Yu and said in a solemn tone:

"You bring this book back to China, no matter what difficulties you encounter, promise me that you will also find the answer. ”

Ma Yu solemnly took the ancient book and nodded vigorously: "Dad, I promise you." ”

Professor Shen Fei not only gave the ancient book to Ma Yu, but also passed on the materials of his own research experience over the years to Ma Yu.

With his mind already made, Ma Yu immediately began to prepare.

Shen Yanbing is very virtuous, although she was born in the United States, but since she is married to her husband, she is willing to give up everything in the United States to follow her husband.

Professor Shen Fei is naturally very reluctant to give up this one daughter, but he is also a scientist.

He knew the importance of exploring science for a scientist, which is why he proposed that Ma Yu return to China.

The three of them began to secretly prepare for their return to China.

Naturally, the United States will not let them go easily.

It is an open secret in the industry that the secret intelligence agencies will monitor them from time to time.

For the happiness of his daughter's family, the old professor thought about it and finally came up with a foolproof strategy.

In September, an international academic forum will be held in Hong Kong, and Professor Shen will also be invited as a visiting professor to participate, and the family has carefully discussed it and decided to take the opportunity to go to Hong Kong to participate in the academic forum and escape to the mainland.

On September 21, a family of four boarded a plane to Hong Kong, and Ma Yu accompanied him as his student, while his wife and children took the opportunity to take them with them in the name of tourism.

On the third night in Hong Kong, Professor Shen Fei first spoke at the dinner to attract everyone's attention, while Ma Yu and his wife slipped out of the back of the hotel in disguise to avoid everyone's eyes.

They took their children to Macau on a clipper boat first, and made the illusion of sneaking to the casino to gamble with Professor Shen on their backs, dividing the security bureau's stalking force.

Then, in the casino, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the people who were watching, he came out of the side door and quickly exited the customs and entered the Gongbei Port between Macau and Zhuhai.

The couple and their children came out of the Gongbei port, and then they were directly escorted to the capital by special services.

The high-level leaders of the capital received Ma Yu and attached great importance to him, and specially allocated special funds to fund him to continue his research.

Due to the international blockade at that time, there was still a large generation gap between Chinese academia and the rest of the world, and the direction and field of his research were unpopular, and many people in China knew little about it.

When Ma Yu chose the location of the institute, he did not choose the big cities of Beijing and Shanghai, but chose to quietly build the institute in Shannan University in Jinan, and he also chose to teach at Shandong University.

The two are usually very low-key, except for some high-level leaders in China, although the leaders of Shandong University know that Ma Yu is a professor sent from above, but they do not know his specific situation.

After Ma Yu came to Jinan, in addition to daily research, he was looking around.

He first went to find the Lishan where Zhou Xuan cultivated immortals, and since the Sui Dynasty, Buddhism was prevalent, and the devout believers carved thousands of stone Buddhas along the wall according to the Lishan.

There is a thousand Buddha temple in the mountain, there is a thousand Buddha cave again at the north foot, the murals in the cave are more than 10,000 squares, the Buddha, the Bodhisattva, the disciple, the heavenly king, the size of the stone carving nearly 30,000 statues, set the essence of Dunhuang, Longmen, Maijishan, Yungang four major grottoes in one, so the later generations changed to call Lishan as a thousand Buddha Mountain.

Ma Yu climbed the mountain along the west road of Pandao, there is a Tang Huai Pavilion on the way, an ancient acacia next to the pavilion, it is said that Qin Qiong, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, had tied a horse here. There is a painted archway in the middle of the mountain, which is called "Qi Smoke Nine Points" square.

Climb the pavilion, look north by the railing, the Daming Lake near is like a mirror, the Yellow River in the distance is like a belt, and the scenery of Quancheng is unobstructed.

This Ma Yu went to climb the Thousand Buddha Mountain every morning, hoping to find some clues.

Visited for half a year in this way, Xingguo Temple, Thousand Buddha Cliff, Tang Huai Pavilion, Guanyin Garden and other places, have already gone to countless places, the whole mountain up and down, before and after the back and forth are all searched, but no clues were found.

So he came to the back mountain of Lishan to seek, the mountain behind the mountain was the place where the Chinese ancestor Emperor Shun cultivated, called Shun Gengshan.

Ma Yu inquired carefully for more than a month, but still found nothing.

When I was disheartened, I suddenly heard an old professor of the archaeology department of the school say that there is a Wuli Mountain in the south of the city that is quite supernatural, and the mountain people there have dug up strange treasures in the mountains in the early years, and the mountain people have sold them at the foot of the mountain, so that it has caused a sensation in the four fields.

For a time, the merchants of Wuli Mountain continued, and some foreign traders also gathered here, and the merchants who traded under this mountain gathered more and more, and now it has formed a huge cultural industry market.

Although the market is mixed, and it happens from time to time to pass off good things with fakes, there are often discerning people who find strange treasures here.

When Ma Yu heard this, he was overjoyed, and got up early the next morning and rushed to the foot of Wuli Mountain.

Look, this market is divided into upper, middle and lower sections, each section is divided into five rows, and sure enough, there are many merchants, and it is very lively.

Ma Yu walked and saw shops one after another. There are jade, five emperor money, vase porcelain, landscape painting scrolls, dazzling, magnificent.

Although Ma Yu has dabbled in different fields, he has followed his mentor Shen Fei in the United States for many years, and he also has a deep knowledge of antique calligraphy and painting.

He saw that although there were many goods in the market, most of them were fakes, and few were genuine. There are a few genuine products, and the fineness is also very poor.

In the middle of his disappointment, he suddenly saw an old man in old clothes at the inconspicuous corner at the end of the street vendor, and the cart was selling, and some broken jade antiques and the like were placed on the cart, arguing with a few passers-by.

Ma Yu swept his eyes and saw that the old man's cart was covered with some ordinary things, and he didn't care about it at first, but suddenly his eyes turned around and found that there was something inside, which seemed to have a faint glow.

Ma Yu was dazzled, and leaned closer to take a closer look, only to see that there was a short box in the old man's cart, and a stick-shaped object in the box, about six inches, was black, as if it was the handle of some weapon.

Ma Yu's heart was pounding, and he carefully took out this object from the box and took a closer look.

I saw that the thing was soft in the hand, but soft on the outside and rigid on the inside, although soft on the outside and very the inside, it faintly contained a killing atmosphere.

This thing is not gold or jade, it has a wolf's head carved on it, its eyes are red, and its mouth is open, but the lower head is a dragon's body, with nine feet and eight horns, and the top of the stick happens to be facing the wolf's mouth, and two golden fangs are exposed.

Ma Yu's eyes lit up, although the thing was obscure due to its age, but he decided that this thing must be a strange treasure.

I was about to inquire when I suddenly heard someone arguing next to me.

Ma Yu looked up and couldn't help frowning.
