After speaking, his tone dropped, and he seemed a little scared.

"The master realized at that time that this book would bring disaster to the world, so he found an opportunity to go to the mainland and hide the classics in an ancient tomb."

"And tell us that even if the tomb is opened, no one will find this book. Unless someone can find the answer from the five books."

"The master also told me before he died that in fact, in that book, in addition to rice dumplings, there were also Xu Fu's prescription for immortality, the Midas touch, etc., but they were not from this world. They should not be touched if they are less than ten thousand. Taboo.”

"After explaining all this, he passed away. After my junior brothers and sisters buried the master, for some reason, someone started to mention that they wanted to find the ancient tomb. I scolded him, thinking that he violated the teacher's teachings."

"After one incident happened, several people even started hiring killers to deal with each other, just to snatch each other's books."

"In the end, they left their master's tokens behind and left with their books."

"Everyone was convinced that the answer was in his book."

"What I want you to do now is to take back all the books. After taking them back, it's up to you whether you want to destroy them or use them for yourself."

Lin Ran was stunned when he heard this.

It turns out that this book still has this meaning. The old man Zhu Yawen just pushed him into the fire pit.

Others may not be able to take action because Zhu Yawen has bodyguards around him.

And he was just a powerless boy who got this book in public. Did he have any other choice?

On the surface it was to provide him with convenience, but in fact it was to spread the word that the book had changed hands.

As if he had read through Lin Ran's thoughts, Zhu Yawen said with a smile: "You can rest assured that my junior brothers and sisters should all be dead. At least I haven't been chased by them for more than ten years. Either I gave up or It was this book that was taken away by someone else.”

Zhu Yawen said: "The most pity is the book Volume [-], which contains information about ancient tombs. Some of them are not even known to anyone now. If you go to the mainland, you must go to the capital and Cangzhou when you have time. There... "

"The tomb of the Queen of Jin and the tomb of Wang Mang." Lin Ran said in a deep voice.

Zhu Yawen was suddenly struck by lightning: "How did you know?"

Before Lin Ran could answer, Zhu Yawen guessed it.

"Have you been there?"

"More than that, I've been there before..." Lin Ran thought of the monsters and poisons inside, and now he felt very frightened.

After all the guests had arrived, Jiang Yuan stood up, gave a fist-cup salute to everyone, and said with a smile:

Zhu Yawen said: "The most pity is the book Volume [-], which contains information about ancient tombs. Some of them are not even known to anyone now. If you go to the mainland, you must go to the capital and Cangzhou when you have time. There... "

The tomb of the Queen of Jin and the tomb of Wang Mang.

Lin Ran couldn't help but think of these two strange tombs. The technology inside them was completely unlike what the ancients could have produced.

But Lin Ran didn't tell the matter, so it was better not to cause trouble to himself.

Zhu Yawen didn't notice it, but murmured to himself: "There are more dangers in the ancient tomb than imagined. Don't go there without a professional team, did you know?"

Lin Ran nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to tell you. Now that all the guests have arrived, let's go back to eat."

Back in the courtyard, Lin Ran sat down next to Zhu Yawen.

Yan Hong said with a smile: "Chen Xing, it is an honor for you to be able to take Mr. Zhu as your teacher. You must study hard with him in the future, do you understand?"

"That's natural." Lin Ran said.

At this moment, Zhu Yawen stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Yan Hong, although I agree to accept Chen Xing as a disciple, how good he can be depends on his own ability."

Lin Ran also knew in his heart that their master-disciple relationship was probably just superficial.

In fact, he was a little worried. It would be troublesome if anyone here was concerned about his secret treasure appraisal skills.

While they were chatting and laughing, a young man walked up to their seats.

Yan Hong suddenly became displeased and said, "Xiao Jun, what are you doing here? It's not time for you to toast yet."

According to the rules of the world, toasts must be given in order. The heads of the major families did not make any move. Why should he, a junior, step forward.

Lin Ran put down the teacup in his hand and looked up at the young man in front of him.

This man was about 27 or [-] years old, tall and thin, with a serious expression, and he looked very honest.

It's just that this kind of person seems to be an honest person at first glance, the kind who will draw a knife when provoked.

Xiao Jun did not back down because of Yan Hong's scolding. Instead, he knelt down on one knee and said, "Mr. Zhu, I have been in the Qilin Association for ten years. In terms of qualifications and hard work, how can I compare?" Is this person bad?"

He asked in front of a full hall of guests, leaving Zhu Yawen unable to react for a moment.

If anyone else dares to cause trouble on such an occasion, they may be abandoned by the entire family.

But as luck would have it, this person was one of Qilin Club's own, so they watched the fun with a smile, and even ate melon seeds with interest.

Zhu Yawen's expression that was still smiling just now fell silent.

Yan Hong slapped the table, stood up, and cursed: "Who in the Qilin Association doesn't want to become Mr. Zhu's disciple? You have been in the Qilin Association for so long and you can't even understand the word 'fate'." ?”

In fact, in addition to the top management, Qilin Club also has its own business clusters, such as jewelry stores, antique malls, etc. They do not accept investment from outsiders and are responsible for their own profits and losses.

Of course, you also need to cultivate some masters of your own, and Xiao Jun is one of them.

There was no child labor system in the port city at that time. Xiao Jun, who had been an orphan since childhood, came to the Qilin Society early and became their apprentice.

Unlike a real address, apprentices can only learn the knowledge inside the store.

However, Zhu Yawen felt that these young people still had some future, so he would teach them some knowledge about treasure appraisal and antiques.

Perhaps it is because they have an immature mentality and feel that after studying for a period of time, they will have a relationship with the higher-ups of the Qilin Society. They think that they are true disciples.

To this day, seeing the formality of the apprenticeship ceremony naturally arouses dissatisfaction among this group of people.

Xiao Jun is exactly the representative they sent.

Lin Ran sat aside and watched everything in front of him with great interest. As expected, the Qilin Society still had the style of a martial arts sect. He had only seen it on TV before, but now he could watch it up close. Lin Ran also wanted to know what would happen next. thing.

The catch is that he himself is also the protagonist.

Fortunately, Yan Hong and Zhu Yawen were both nearby, so he probably didn't need to take action.
