In the darkness, Yue Guanchao couldn't hold back his laughter.
"Vulgar and reckless man, you still laugh, and your laughter consumes more air."
A vulgar and reckless man? Later you will know how powerful a vulgar and reckless man is... Yue Guanchao twisted the corner of his mouth and cursed. He felt a vibration on the top of his head and quickly stopped laughing.
"Did you feel like someone was walking above us?"
"It's not a feeling, it's someone really at the top of the secret room."
Before he finished speaking, gravel fell from above his head.
The originally dark secret room was as dark as ink, but a light column as big as a water tank fell from the top of the head, illuminating the secret room with a cold and deep light. Dust was like fireflies, lingering in the light column.
"How about this feeling of waiting to die in the tomb, isn't it very useful, Xian Sun~"
Next to the light pillar, a loud and thick voice entered the secret room.
"Fuck you, you tricked us into coming in, and you didn't even give us a quick blow. I almost choked grandpa to death."
Yue Guanchao pinched his waist and pretended to curse, standing under the light beam and looking towards the top of the secret room.
Next to the light beam is a middle-aged man, wearing a mandarin robe and slicked-back hair, with a sachet and jade pendant hanging on his body, with Ruinao sandalwood floating downwards. His figure is tall and upright, and he is playing with a jade ring in his hand.
He looks like a hypocritical Confucian official who retired from the previous dynasty!
He knew clearly that this person was definitely not Chao Linyuan. His voice was not that rich, but he was not Chao Bingzhong. The old man was already rickety and weak.
Yue Guanchao looked at this person's appearance and determined the candidate in his mind - Chao Wenshun, the owner of Chaofu.
Chao Wenshun continued:
"I originally wanted to let you suffocate to death, but I didn't expect you to be so smart that even the Chaojia Bai Bureau could figure it out. It's so good, it's just for my use."
"Very good?"
Yue Guanchao was confused and looked at him with hostility:
"How do you know we are willing to listen to you?"
"Hahahahaha!"
The figure in front of the light cave smiled hypocritically, seemingly not paying attention to Yue Guanchao:
"My dear nephew, ever since you entered the garden, you have been passive."
"Now, you have only two options. You can either be suffocated to death in the secret room with the two tomb robbers, or you can agree to my terms and be used by me."
Yue Guanchao understood that they could live for so long only because this man did not want them to die so quickly.
"You still have to bargain when buying groceries. You don't tell me any conditions. Is there any use in playing charades here?"
"After I agree, I will tell you naturally."
In a dangerous situation, isolated and helpless, Yue Guanchao and the others no longer have the leverage to negotiate terms, so they can only agree to him first and then make plans.
"Okay, I promise you."
As soon as he said this, Chao Wenshun clapped his hands and the square door opened again.
The three of them walked out of the secret room and saw that Chao Linyuan was still knocked unconscious on the ground. There were more than a dozen guards in black clothes and black coats standing around.
Yue Guanchao felt carefully that the whole body of the guard exuded a dangerous aura, and every one of them was a martial arts master!
He originally wanted to pretend to agree and escape with Song Lou and the other two, but now that these guards were in front, he had to change his mind.
You can win if you fight alone, but if you are surrounded by many people, you may not have a chance of winning.
In this way, I resigned myself to my fate.
The three people were covered with black cloth and sent out of the back garden by the nursing home.
After exiting the door and crossing the verandah, they twisted and walked into the Chaofengguan Hall on the west side of the screen wall.
Tear!
Yue Guanchao felt that there was light in front of his eyes. As the black cloth was torn off, the five carved windows and doors were closed together.
He looked around carefully. There were numerous calligraphy and paintings, antiques and rare items, elegant screens, and the surrounding tables, chairs, and chairs were all exquisite and elegant. The nursing staff stood in the side hall with bated breaths, not saying a word. It was probably a living room.
The gentle breeze ruffled the curtains in the hall, and the candlelight swayed like moths.
When Yue and Song saw the servants filling tea cups, they knew that Chao Wenshun wanted something from them. If he wanted to execute himself secretly, he would never escort them to the living room.
The living room is originally a place to entertain guests!
Song Siyuan thought clearly that they were not without any bargaining chips, and with a little confidence in her heart, she spoke preemptively:
"I said Chaodong, you don't hesitate to use your son as a trap. What exactly do you want us to do?"
Chao Wenshun gently fiddled with the tea cup and said slowly and unhurriedly:
"Same as your purpose."
Yue Guanchao took a sip of tea. It was mellow and clear, comparable to the tea from the Song family. It was definitely not an ordinary product:
"Haidong Shenghuang Mausoleum?"
"That is the tomb chosen by your ancestors personally. If you want to dig into the walls of your ancestors, aren't you being unfilial to your descendants?"
These words were vulgar, unpleasant and extremely rude. Chao Wenshun's eyes froze, he stopped the tea cup and gave him a dark look:
"The Bohai Kingdom has been destroyed for thousands of years. Do you really think that a family as big as ours can exist because it has fulfilled its promise to protect Changbai Mountain?"
Song Siyuan remembered the warning Song Qingyang gave them, and combined with what she just said, something strange suddenly appeared:
"That's not true. We would like to know why you want the treasures in the Haidong Emperor's Tomb."
Chao Wenshun smiled hypocritically:
"Do you know how many treasures there are inside?"
"Appreciate further details!"
Chao Wenshun was much gentler when facing Song Siyuan than when he was watching Yue Guanchao:
"Half of the national treasure is all in it!"
