Seeing the old man like this, Hu Bayi's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he felt a dull pain.

Hu Bayi touched the money in his pocket, and the sum of a few cents and a few yuan was only 180 yuan.

Although Hu Bayi also received the tens of thousands of yuan from Shirley Yang, it had already been distributed to his comrades and relatives, and he was really poor.

After thinking about it, Hu Bayi still stuffed the money into the old man's hand so that he could have a few good meals.

The old man took the money, and his hands couldn't stop shaking:

"Good people! They are all good people! Thank you!"

After saying that, he pretended to kneel.

Huo Jilin quickly helped the old man up: "The Qing Dynasty is gone, no one is worthy of your kneeling, and we are not worthy either."

The old man sobbed and wiped his tears.

After a while, the three of them finished their meal and cleaned up the dishes.

Hu Bayi helped Wang Kaixuan to rest in the room.

Wang Kaixuan sat on the kang, humming: "You haven't told me yet, which bastard attacked me?"

It would have been better if Wang Kaixuan didn't mention it. Once he mentioned it, Hu Bayi was furious: "It was Ma Dadan's gang. Brother Huo and I have beaten him up, which can be regarded as revenge for you!"

Huo Jilin was a little curious: "What on earth did you do?"

Wang Kaixuan looked left and right: "Did you see my backpack?"

Hu Bayi and Huo Jilin shook their heads.

Wang Kaixuan said "Aiya" and hit his thigh: "Damn it, I was thinking about going to the tomb, afraid of poisonous gas, so I went to the hospital to steal a gas mask. Damn it, not only did I not get the gas mask, but I was almost killed!"

Huo Jilin laughed out loud, but. Wang Kaixuan was so aware that he was still happy: "I'm going to find Shirley Yang now and ask her what she brought."

After that, he went out and walked towards the direction of the farmer's house where Shirley Yang was staying.

The person who knocked on the door this time was Shirley Yang.

Shirley Yang's mouth corners were raised to her cheekbones, and she asked: "Mr. Huo, why don't you feel strange when you see me?"

Huo Jilin smiled meaninglessly: "I knew you would come."

Shirley Yang invited Huo Jilin to the yard, and poured a pot of hot tea in a bowl: "This tea is the best thing they can offer."

Huo Jilin picked up the bowl and drank it, lowered his voice, and said straight to the point: "Did you bring anyone with you this time? This ancient tomb is more dangerous than the previous one."

Shirley Yang's face was slightly startled, and she asked suspiciously: "How do you know why I am here?"

Huo Jilin's face was very calm, and there was no change:

"Besides this, why else can you come?"

"Don't say that you, a rich lady, came all the way from the United States just to be in Drinking tea in the corner of this mountain stream?"

"The purpose of this trip must be the same as ours."

Shirley Yang's expression relaxed:

"Good! Mr. Huo is really a genius!"

"I have invested a lot of money this time and brought a lot of people. We can go together."

"I brought a team of mercenaries from the United States. They have their own heavy firepower. There is also a historian named Sun, Sun Yaozu. You can just call him Professor Sun."

"They all live in Gulan County now."

"I will come to Panshepo to explore the situation first."

Huo Jilin felt bad when he heard it. He thought: In the original book, Sun Yaozu is the biggest villain, but if he tells Shirley Yang now, it will inevitably arouse her suspicion. It seems that in addition to those monsters and ghosts in the tomb, he has to deal with people's hearts.

Seeing Huo Jilin lost in thought, Shirley Yang put her hand in front of him and shook it: "What's wrong, Mr. Huo?"

Huo Jilin shook his head:

"Nothing."

"Oh, by the way, let's go back to the county early tomorrow, and I'll take you to see someone."

Shirley Yang couldn't help asking: "Who are you going to take me to see?"

Huo Jilin pretended to be mysterious: "The secret cannot be revealed, you will know tomorrow."

After that, he got up and left.

After a good sleep, when I got up the next day, the old man actually brought dumplings with a smile.

It seems that he got up early in the morning and went to the morning market to buy meat.

Seeing this, Huo Jilin couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart.

After breakfast, Huo Jilin. Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan said goodbye to the old man, picked up Shirley Yang who had been waiting at the gate of the courtyard, and returned to Gulan County together.

As soon as Huo Jilin returned to Gulan County, he couldn't wait to take Shirley Yang to find Chen Yulou.

Coincidentally, when Huo Jilin and Shirley Yang found Chen Yulou, Chen Yulou was not at the stall, but was sitting on his broken chair, as if waiting for someone.

As soon as Huo Jilin and Shirley Yang entered the door, Chen Yulou's hearty laughter rang out.

Huo Jilin bowed to Chen Yulou.He bowed and said, "Hello, senior. I am sorry to bother you."

Chen Yulou stroked his gray beard and said with a smile, "When I got up today, I knew that a distinguished person was coming. Sure enough."

Shirley Yang's face was full of confusion: "Why did you bring me here? When did Mr. Huo like fortune-telling?"

Huo Jilin said nothing else, pulled Shirley Yang to sit in front of Chen Yulou, and stood aside:

"Senior, this girl's ancestors also did this business, maybe they have a lot of connections with you."

Chen Yulou said "Oh": "May I ask who this girl's ancestors were?"

Shirley Yang was full of doubts and felt that Huo Jilin would never do anything bad to her. Then he said honestly: "My grandpa is the last leader of the mountain moving team, named Partridge Whistle, do you know him, old sir?"

Hearing the name Partridge Whistle, Chen Yulou's face changed, and there was a bit of doubt in his tone:

"Is your grandpa really Partridge Whistle?"

"This is not a joke."

"Don't take advantage of my blindness and deceive me!"

Shirley Yang was immediately confused and said: "My grandpa is indeed Partridge Whistle, old sir, do you know my grandpa?"

Chen Yulou quickly stood up and asked: "Girl, can I touch your head?"

Shirley Yang looked back at Huo Jilin, who motioned her to hand over her head.

Chen Yulou touched Shirley Yang's head, and the expression on his face instantly became extremely excited, and two old tears fell to the ground:

"Good! Good! The head has four corners and the face has three fists! It's him! It's really him!"

"I didn't expect that after decades, I can still see the descendants of my old friend."

"How is your grandfather now?"

Shirley Yang answered truthfully: "My grandfather has passed away, and you are old sir?"

Chen Yulou didn't waste any words and put the dagger he carried with him on the table: "Please take a look, young lady."

Shirley Yang picked up the dagger, looked at it carefully for a while, and her face suddenly changed: "Isn't this the small divine sword that only the leader of Xiangling has!"
