The next day.
Ju Xian Lou.
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Kai Xuan arrived at Ju Xian Lou early in the morning.
Just in case Da Jin Ya changed his mind, they needed to be prepared.
As the two were pondering, Da Jin Ya walked into Ju Xian Lou, "Yo, you two, early birds!"
"What are you all standing around for, have a seat!"
After the three sat down, they engaged in a deep conversation.
"I wonder, Jin Ye, what brings you to call us here today?" Hu Ba Yi got straight to the point, wasting no time.
What was Da Jin Ya's real motive? They needed to find out.
Da Jin Ya flashed a golden smile, a name befitting his appearance, his front teeth capped with a gold tooth.
"Yesterday was a chance encounter, so let me introduce myself. I'm known as Jin Ye in Pan Jia Yuan, dealing in antiques. My ancestors also used to be tomb raiders."
Hu Ba Yi had already guessed Da Jin Ya's intentions with eight or nine out of ten certainty.
The reason for this sudden change must be related to tomb raiding.
"Have you two heard of the Old Nine Gates?"
Wang Kai Xuan quickly nodded. Everyone in Pan Jia Yuan knew about the Changsha Old Nine Gates, those who dealt with tomb raiding.
Hu Ba Yi nodded slightly. Over the years, he had traveled far and wide, encountering many people. In this line of work, tomb raiding, the Changsha Old Nine Gates were the most powerful now.
People like them, the Tomb Robbers, were mostly lone wolves. Their skills might be comparable, but the Old Nine Gates had more manpower!
"Jin Ya, what do you mean?"
Da Jin Ya started talking, "The Old Nine Gates sent some people to dig a tomb in the western suburbs a few days ago, and they encountered mummies. They suffered heavy losses, almost wiping out their entire team."
"I see you two are experts, and you bought the Little Life Lord's treasure. I guess you have your own plans for this tomb."
"I have no other intentions. If you manage to bring anything out of the tomb, I can connect you with buyers and take a commission!"
Wang Kai Xuan curiously asked, "Jin Ya is it? Is the Little Life Lord's treasure really that magical?"
Da Jin Ya said solemnly, "The Little Life Lord's ancestors were celestial masters, specializing in dealing with mummies. What do you think?"
"Those people from the Old Nine Gates were arrogant, they didn't buy the Little Life Lord's treasure. If they had, how could such a tragedy have happened."
Da Jin Ya's words immediately reassured Wang Kai Xuan. It seemed like the thousand yuan he spent wasn't wasted after all.
Besides, it was Lao Hu's money. Listening to Da Jin Ya's introduction, Wang Kai Xuan's mind became more determined.
They, the two brothers, couldn't even scrape together three hundred yuan.
"Let me think about it!"
"No worries, we'll think while we eat!"
…
Back in the dormitory, Wang Kai Xuan tried his best to persuade Hu Ba Yi. He really wanted to go.
Finally, the two decided to go to Niu Xin Mountain again.
Lin Chang Sheng, who was in his Lin's Paper Zhai Shop, suddenly had a string of information pop up in his mind.
【Detecting an ancient tomb available for practice. Practice in the ancient tomb, with a chance for your innate traits to evolve!】
Hmm!
Lin Chang Sheng was surprised. This was the first time he had heard of innate traits evolving through tomb practice.
He was a little moved.
Seeing Hu Ba Yi and Wang Kai Xuan, he guessed they were preparing to enter a tomb.
Lin Chang Sheng then practiced in the courtyard, performing the Maoshan Fist.
Within ten minutes, he thought he wouldn't be too far behind the high-end strength of the Old Nine Gates. As for Zhang family's Kirin...
As long as his innate traits evolved, surpassing him wouldn't be difficult!
There weren't many things that could make Lin Chang Sheng hesitate about entering a tomb.
As for finding the tomb, Hu Ba Yi was a good choice.
In tomb raiding, the top skills belonged to the Fa Qiu Zhong Lang Jiang, Mo Jin Xiao Wei, Ban Shan Dao Ren, and Xie Ling Li Shi.
Mo Jin Xiao Wei, observing celestial phenomena, investigating earth veins, they excelled in the art of dividing gold and determining graves.
Hu Ba Yi's half-roll of the Sixteen-Word Feng Shui Secret Art contained this technique of dividing gold and determining graves.
Ban Shan Dao Ren, not only using the mountain-splitting digging tool, but also possessing the art of moving mountains and filling seas. The best among Ban Shan Dao Ren was undoubtedly Zhe Gu Sha.
Xie Ling Li Shi, using big shovels and big hoes, pulling with oxen and horses, using gunpowder and artillery, they were relentless. The leader of Xie Ling Li Shi was Chen Yu Lou.
Fa Qiu Tian Guan, blessed by the celestial official, no restrictions, with a seal in hand, even spirits avoided them. The Fa Qiu lineage had almost died out, only the Zhang family seemed to possess Fa Qiu skills, such as the Fa Qiu Finger.
Just as Lin Chang Sheng was about to close his shop.
A hand stopped his shop door. An innocent-looking face appeared before Lin Chang Sheng, a face that instantly conveyed harmlessness.
Lin Chang Sheng remained unaffected emotionally, "Something you need?"
The innocently-faced individual was Wu Xie, the fifth of the Old Nine Gates, Wu family.
He looked young, innocent, and naive.
"Hello, I heard your shop has good things. Can I take a look?"
Lin Chang Sheng nodded, "That's right. I just don't know if you need anything."
Wu Xie smiled and pointed to the inside of the shop, "Can we go inside?"
"It's not very convenient to talk standing outside."
Wu Xie stepped into the paper zhai shop. He felt quite a chill, the rows of paper figures made him feel itchy and uncomfortable, as if they were about to come alive. He had to say that Lin Chang Sheng's skills in paper figurine crafting were too good.
Lin Chang Sheng looked at Wu Xie, whose scalp was tingling. This young man...
