Everyone thinks I'm a wealthy doctor's son-in-law

Hearing this, Lu Ming made a gesture of invitation.

Compared with the clues he has, the Shangguan family needs to know more and more thoroughly.

Shangguan Yanran asked in a deep voice: "Who brought your father into the industry back then?"

Huang Shiren answered the question with a clue, and it was much smoother.

"It's the master of the Hu family. It happened more than 50 years ago. At that time, the Hu family was accepting apprentices in the capital, and my dad went there!"

Shangguan Yanran frowned, said: "This line of business does not accept apprentices!"

"I only found out about this later. It turned out to be a conspiracy between the two families! It's really harmful!" Huang Shiren pretended to be pitiful.

Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Lu Ming asked with a smile: "How do you say it?"

"Returning to my lord, it's like this. To put it bluntly, the business of fighting against people is digging people's graves and not accumulating virtue. Although they make a lot of money, they are despised by others! Therefore, the people who fight against each other are basically from the same family, and those who are close to me by blood They never accept apprentices and outsiders, and even colleagues seldom cooperate!"

"But more than 50 years ago, it's strange! The Hu family in the Northern Wilderness and the Zhang family in the Southern Region, these two famous fighting masters, actually recruited disciples in the devil city. I didn't know until my generation that these two families We're planning something big!"

Finally, when Huang Shiren got to the point, Lu Ming's eyes signaled him to continue.

Huang Shiren didn't dare to hide it, so he went on to say: "I only found out later that it is said that a hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Hu family and the Zhang family discovered a large tomb in Niushan, the capital city. Strong alliance."

Lu Ming knew little about this matter, but seeing Shangguan Yanran nodding, it was obvious that Huang Shiren was not bragging.

A hundred years ago in China, the most famous people in the fighting world were the Hu family from the Northern Wilderness and the Zhang family from the Southern Region. The other side.

"However, the joint operation of the two families a hundred years ago suffered a great loss in the Niushan Ancient Tomb. It is said that the two families sent out industry elites at that time, with a team of 50 to [-] people, but after entering, the entire army was wiped out! Finally, Only the heads of the two families survived, and only brought four pictures from the ancient tomb, and the two seniors returned to the family, and died of illness not long after..."

"Wait!" Lu Ming suddenly interrupted Huang Shiren, and asked: "A hundred years ago, the Hu family and the Zhang family went to Niushan to rob the tomb with all their strength, and in the end they only got four residual pictures?"

Especially when it came to the four residual pictures, Lu Ming asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, four residual pictures." Huang Shiren nodded solemnly: "It's not wrong, it's four."

four?

When he heard the residual map, Lu Ming reached for his pocket. There was a residual map left by Grandpa Guan Ling. Judging from the cracks, it should be a quarter of the entire map, but the two masters took it away a hundred years ago. Four, did I think too much?

He pondered for a while, and said, "Go on."

Huang Shiren nodded and said: "The two families have a tacit understanding on this matter, and they both kept it a secret. It is said that the heads of the two families died of illness after returning home. Before they died, they asked the family to recuperate. , the two families began to recruit disciples in the magic capital, and my dad also joined. By the way, it was still Guan Pingyuan!"

"I was only in my teens at the time, and I was helping out occasionally. They went to the big tomb in Niushan. Neither the Hu family nor the Zhang family wanted the things they dug out, and gave them to the participants. At that time, my father Responsible for reselling, Guan Pingyuan gave my dad a few things to sell, that’s why I got the IOU later.”

Lu Ming tapped the table lightly with his fingers. It seems that Guan Ling's grandfather Guan Pingyuan and father Guan Jianguo were accomplices of the Hu family and the Zhang family back then, and they made a living by robbing tombs.

This also makes sense, why Guan Pingyuan didn't have a proper job back then, but he was able to buy that luxurious courtyard house in Shanghai.

"The Hu family and the Zhang family led a group of people to dig the ancient tomb of Niushan for more than 20 years?" Lu Ming asked with a frown.

"That hasn't bottomed out yet! You haven't even arrived at the main tomb!" Huang Shiren spoke so enthusiastically that he seemed to have forgotten his identity.

"23 years ago, it was almost time to enter the coffin of the main tomb! That day, the Hu family and the Zhang family gathered everyone to go to the Niushan ancient tomb to prepare for a big fight, but the tomb door collapsed just after entering the main tomb, and no one came back alive. My father and Guan Pingyuan and his son are buried inside!"

Lu Ming wiped his chin with one hand and pondered. The so-called recall seemed to be an order from the Hu family and the Zhang family, and what Guan Pingyuan handed to Grandma Guan Ling before leaving was probably the remnant picture of the last key of the ancient box.

It's just that he didn't understand that the two great masters got four remnants of the map a hundred years ago, that is, the whole map, and how did Guan Pingyuan get a remnant map after more than 80 years.

"That ancient box is a curse!" Huang Shiren couldn't help shuddering when he said this, "Two years later, I took someone there once, and the ancient tomb was completely dug up, and there was nothing inside! The bodies were buried."

Shangguan Yanran nodded at this moment and said: "That's true. When Shangguan's family and Lu's family gathered a lot of manpower to go there, Shangguan Fenghuang's parents were also among them. It is said that the ancient tomb is full of organs, and finally the ancient box was taken away because of heavy casualties. Got it! But there are only two keys to open the outer layer of the ancient box, not the key to open the core of the ancient box. At that time, Grandma Jinxiu was holding the ancient box, and Aunt Mo Yun was poisoned after opening it. You know everything about the key!"

Lu Ming looked solemn. If what Huang Shiren said was true, then the map that recorded the key to open the core of the ancient box a hundred years ago should have fallen into the hands of the Hu family in the Northern Wilderness and the Zhang Family in the Southern Region.

In the next hundred years, the two families tried to find the ancient box from the ancient tomb with great manpower and material resources, but in the end they found nothing, and instead made a wedding dress for the Shangguan family.

"The four pictures are the key to obtaining the core key of the ancient box." Shangguan Yanran looked straight at Lu Ming, "It seems that we have to go to the Northern Wilderness and the Southern Territory!"

Lu Ming nodded in agreement. Now the clues of the key point to the Hu family in the Northern Wilderness and the Zhang Family in the Southern Region. If you collect the whole picture, you can find the key to open the ancient box.

If you want to take revenge, if you want to completely lure Tianzong out, opening the ancient box is the only way!
"Is the ancient box really in your hands?" Huang Shiren asked subconsciously.

Suddenly, he felt a frightened look in his eyes, and he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to meet Lu Ming's gaze.

"What happened today, I hope you will rot in your stomach! Do you understand!" Lu Ming asked in a deep voice.

Huang Shiren nodded quickly, and said, "Don't worry, my lord, this little one will bring this secret into the coffin!"

Lu Ming waved his hand, indicating that he could go. Huang Shiren heaved a sigh of relief and hurried out with his yellow hair on his shoulders.

"Are you so kind?" Shangguan Yanran frowned and said, "What Huang Shiren knows is that Geng Shuo of Tianzong has been investigating all these years! If this secret is leaked out, it may affect your and my plans to go to the Northern Wilderness and the Southern Territory. Influence!"

Lu Ming smiled lightly and said, "I didn't say I would go, let alone go with you!"

At these words, the angry Shangguan blushed.

But Lu Ming didn't care, and said: "Huo Jun, you followed Huang Shiren secretly, remember! What I want is the lives of everyone in Tianzong, not for you to protect Huang Shiren and his son!"

"Understood!" Huo Jun turned and walked out of the private room with his hands clasped.
