Tomb Raider: I Became the Young Master of the Crescent Hotel

Li Cu supported Grandma Wu and walked slowly in the ancestral hall, looking at the tablets.

"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, everyone went their separate ways and found their own way, and set up businesses one after another. However, these people still looked up to the older generation for face, and they just maintained their relationship."

Li Cu looked at the tablets and asked, "Why did they all die on August 1945, 8? And why do the tablets only have surnames but no given names?"

"It happened so suddenly that there was no time to count the data, so it turned out like this."

"what's up?"

Grandma Wu sighed, "It's still about Gutongjing. Back then, Zhang Dafoye led hundreds of people from Jiumen! He went to Gutongjing, a foreign country, to carry out a project, but until now I still don't know what that project was like."

"They are all dead." This is the only thing Li Cu could confirm.

With their deaths, the secret of Gutongjing was forever sealed in the desert, so Gutongjing became a taboo for the people of Jiumen, and no one could touch Gutongjing from then on!

But Wuxie broke this rule.

That's why Huo Youxue dared to break into Wu's house and ask Grandma Wu for someone with such a high-sounding excuse.

Only other people from the Nine Gates would want to get a piece of the pie because they also want to go to Gutongjing.

However, Wuxie’s actions in the early years were not in vain. Like Gaosha, three of the nine gates were still obedient.

The reason why Grandma Wu let Li Cu know all this was because she didn't know what her grandson was going to do, but what she could guess was that Li Cu's arrival must be to report safety on behalf of Wu Xie.

In order to have her grandson come back alive as soon as possible, the old lady immediately bowed to Li Cu. Grandma Wu just hoped that Li Cu could help Wu Xie more.

"So, what is the current status of the Second Master of the Nine Gates?"

Grandma Wu smiled and said, "Child, there are some things that you can't know the truth from other people's mouths. You still have to ask them yourself."

The next morning, Li Cu got up early. He looked at the map on the card last night, which was Wushanju. What did the red dot on it represent?

He followed the map to a remote place where the door of the room could not be opened.

Li Cu was sharp-eyed and swiped the card in his hand over: "I guessed it was a door access control!"

Sure enough, the door opened.

After entering, there was a dim passage. As soon as Li Cu turned the corner, he met a stranger.

The man was wearing a black coat and had a good body proportion.

"who are you?"

The man put his hands behind his back: "Zhang Rishan"

"Come on, follow me."

He turned around, and Li Cu saw that his hands were behind his back rubbing the bracelet on his wrist. The style of the bracelet was very simple and ancient.

Following him all the way to a door, he saw Zhang Rishan carefully take off the bracelet, insert the bracelet into the groove, and then twist the groove, and then the stone door opened.

Then Zhang Rishan blew away the non-existent dust on it and put it on his wrist.

"Let's go."

The room was dim and without any light. Zhang Rishan slowly lit the kerosene lamp.

This is an extremely secret basement, and it is filled with a large number of Hydra cypresses and black-haired snakes.

"Have you seen these things?"

Li Cu saw his familiar old friends and smiled nonchalantly: "I almost lost my life trying to lure this thing out. I would recognize it even if it turned into ashes."

"But why are they here?"

Zhang Rishan asked Li Cu in return: "Have you seen the iron barrels in Gutongjing?"

Li Cu looked at Zhang Rishan's expression and thought about the things in front of him: "Those iron barrels were delivered here?"

"Yes, most of them are shipped here."

"So what exactly are these things?" Li Cu looked at Zhang Rishan in front of him, who had a slightly smiling face.

Zhang Rishan was still thinking about returning to Beijing as soon as possible: "You are so much like Wuxie in your questioning."

As expected, Li Cu looked unhappy when he heard this: "Ah, then I won't ask!"

Thinking about the hardships his young master had endured, Zhang Rishan emphasized to Li Cu with a serious expression: "Don't trust anyone after you leave here."

Li Cu really felt tired. He hadn't sorted out his own affairs yet, and now another trouble came: "What exactly do you want me to do?!"

"Find the tenth missing family!"

Li Cu narrowed his eyes: "The tenth family? Aren't you the nine sects?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Rishan showed a rare sense of professionalism: "This family is a more secretive and extreme family."
