Chapter 1307: The Marquis of Falsehood
"Hun Hou? Is it a royal tomb?"
Faced with Luo Tianhe's doubt, the shopkeeper just shook his head, "I don't know the details. After all, the exact location of this tomb cannot be determined yet, but judging from the unearthed burial objects, this tomb is of very high specifications.
"We found a person who knows the inside story through our connections. It is said that this old man has spent his entire life looking for this tomb. The name of the so-called Hun Hou Tomb was also first revealed from his mouth, but compared to Hun Hou, he prefers to use another name to refer to this mysterious tomb owner."
After a pause, the shopkeeper's face became cautious: "Wang Yan Hou."
For some reason, the moment these three words came out, several people in Jiangcheng felt a gust of cold wind blowing on their faces, but it was only a moment, and the next second, everything returned to normal.
"We need to meet this old gentleman, and please introduce him. "
Jiang Cheng bowed to the shopkeeper. Just by the shopkeeper's retelling, everyone could be sure that the tomb of the Marquis Hun that the old man referred to was the bloody corpse tomb.
The shopkeeper looked embarrassed, but nodded, "I'll try my best, but we haven't seen this old man either. The old man has a very strange temper and his whereabouts are erratic, so it's hard to figure out."
"It doesn't matter. You just need to help us convey the message, and then... please take this thing with you. ơɱ”
Jiang Cheng said as he took the wooden box with the dressing mirror from the fat man. Seeing this, Luo Tianhe and Yuan Shanyuan's eyes became subtle. They had always coveted the dressing mirror, but due to various reasons, it was inconvenient to rob it openly. But if this thing fell into the hands of the shopkeeper, it would be hard to say.
But Jiang Cheng's action stopped their thoughts. Jiang Cheng took out the dressing mirror from the box, put it close to his body, and then handed the wooden box to the shopkeeper, saying: "You just need to give this box to the old gentleman. I think he will be willing to see us. "
The shopkeeper didn't ask any more questions, put away the box, and agreed.
After settling everyone, the shopkeeper left with the wooden box and the portrait. Jiang Cheng and his friends didn't go back to the hotel, but stayed in Baomozhai directly, waiting for news. Fortunately, there were enough empty rooms here, and there was still room for two people.
After a whole day of rest, they had a good sleep at night. Since entering the mission, it was the first night that everyone slept so soundly.
Until the next morning, the shopkeeper brought people to the door.
The man accompanying the shopkeeper was a man. Although he was wearing a long gown and a top hat, he still couldn't hide his wild atmosphere, and the sharpness in his eyes was even more impressive.
The brim of the top hat was pulled down very low, which was probably for the purpose of hiding his identity.
"Everyone, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Liu San. I will entrust the things you gave me to him."
Jiang Cheng clasped his fists to the man, "Mr. San. "
Liu Sanye waved his hand, and later he also clasped his fists to Jiang Cheng and others in return, "You are too polite, we are all brothers from all over the world, and I have heard about your story. I admire you from the bottom of my heart for being willing to go deep into the tiger's den and take risks to get rid of the traitor Song Keli. Sanye is the name given to me by my brothers in the underworld. You can just call me Liu San."
Jiang Cheng and others were not ungrateful, and they all bowed and called me Sanye. After a brief introduction, everyone sat down. Liu Sanye also talked about business and spread the portrait on the table, "I have confirmed the person in the portrait. His name is Liu Xueyi, a local from Shanghai. Although the name sounds righteous, he is actually a digger in the business of digging holes, and... this person has disappeared for a long time. "
"Disappeared..."
Everyone had a bad premonition in their hearts. It seemed that the clues they had finally obtained would be cut off here again.
"Please rest assured, your business is my business. I have mobilized the brothers in the gang to find him. I am not bragging. As long as he is still in Shanghai, I will bring him to you within seven days!"
Liu Sanye is worthy of being a man of the world. His words are powerful, but the people in Jiangcheng sighed in their hearts. Let alone seven days, they can't wait even for three days. Now the most important thing is time.
However, with a person like Liu Sanye in charge, even if the second young master really comes, he will only be frustrated. Their safety can be guaranteed for the time being.
Suddenly, there was a very light sound outside the door, like clothes rubbing against the door. Liu Sanye was very alert. He touched his waist with one hand and quickly stood up. "Who is it? "
The next second, the door opened naturally, leaving only the little boy staring at everyone in a daze, holding a pancake wrapped in oilcloth in his hand, which was still steaming.
The fat man immediately figured it out. In the morning, he joked with the boy that he wanted to eat pancakes, and the boy generously patted his chest and said he would treat him to some. As a result... he didn't expect that he really went to buy them.
The fat man immediately stepped forward to comfort the frightened boy, and at the same time explained to everyone not to panic, this was the person they brought. After hearing this, Liu Sanye slowly put down his hand that was touching his waist. Jiang Cheng took the opportunity to see that Liu Sanye's waist was bulging, and it was obvious that he had hidden a weapon, which looked like a box gun from the shape.
Jiang Cheng knew that people like Liu Sanye were extremely suspicious, and letting the boy leave on his own would definitely cause unnecessary suspicion, so he simply let the fat man carry the boy in, but unexpectedly, as soon as the boy approached the table, his eyes couldn't help but stare at the portrait on the table. The next second, what he said shocked everyone, "Isn't this the ghost face in the blind monk's temple?"
"Ghost face?"
This ghost word instinctively frightened everyone. What was even weirder was that such a thing actually came from the mouth of this little boy. Now Luo Tianhe, Yao, Shunyu and others also noticed that something was wrong, and their eyes turned towards the little boy. Be subtle.
Now Mr. Liu San was a little confused. After all, he was also a well-known figure in the green forest. In his own territory, a child pointed out the person he had not found. But the boy didn't care about so many things and took care of himself. He said: "Fat brother, I have seen this person. In the past, when we had no food, we would go to the Blind Toutuo Temple to steal tributes to eat. It was not just me, but also other children. I have seen this person in the temple, but He looked much scarier than in the portrait. Half of his face was rotten, which was so scary that at first we thought we had seen a ghost. "
"Third Master, do you know the location of the Blind Toutuo Temple?"
Mr. Liu Sanye nodded, "I know, there is an abandoned temple on a barren mountain not far outside the city, but it is said that the incense used to be very good, so people still come to worship from time to time."
"Please also send someone to check this temple."
Before Mr. Liu could set out, the boy was also clamoring to go, saying that he would definitely find this person if he went. Half-heartedly, Mr. Liu agreed.
