CHAPTER 301 - DISPOSAL

On the street!

Ye Yin and Erpang ran for over a hundred meters before they finally sat down on the ground and panted heavily. Erpang patted his chest with lingering fear: "Ye Yin, do you see that?

Whew

Ye Yin helplessly looked at Erpang: Is that what you're concerned about?

Erpang said: The spear is swaying in front of me, how could I not see it? I really didn't think that they were here for the Sheepskin Roll. My parents will definitely regret it to death this time.

Ye Yin was already used to Erpang's thoughtlessness, he was just like a horse. He thought for half a day before deciding to tell Erpang about the Recorder Pen, because he could already tell that the group of people were looking for him, and the recording had something to do with that!

The Sheepskin Roll was retrieved by Erpang's parents, but the Recorder Pen was directly mailed to Ye Yin. Once they found out about it, even if Ye Yin had ten mouths, they would not be able to tell.

Ye Yin did not want to touch this mold. He thought for a while before clenching his teeth and said to Erpang: Erpang, we might have gotten into big trouble!

Don't worry, it has nothing to do with you!

Erpang waved his hand: "They are looking for my house, and the Sheepskin Roll s have been taken away by them, so they won't come looking for us anymore, Haha, looks like the treasure map s are real, if not these people wouldn't have worked so hard for it. Luckily we had a backup before, so today you called them and said what those words were.

Immersed in his own world, Erpang comforted Ye Yin a little, but Ye Yin still frowned deeply. He thought for a moment, then directly said to Erpang: I know Chen Sanjin!

Play what?

Although Erpang was very stubborn, he had heard the conversation clearly. Now that he suddenly heard Ye Yin say that he knew Chen Sanjin, he was so shocked that he almost jumped up, and looked at Ye Yin in shock.

Ye Yin explained: It's not the kind of recognition you're talking about, but … How should he put it? Come home with me first, I'll explain the situation in detail to you. This time, we might really have gotten into big trouble!"

In the warehouse of Ye Yin's house, Ye Xi was already fast asleep. In order to not wake Ye Xi up, the two of them took the Recorder Pen and walked into the courtyard. After that, Ye Yin told them everything about how she received the express delivery and how the Sheepskin Roll was written in the Dai Clan's script, ... It's just as I said, ever since you showed me the Sheepskin Roll, I started receiving these couriers for no reason. Didn't you hear what those people said just now? Asking if we know Chen Sanjin, and even asking other than Sheepskin Roll s, if they have received any tapes or anything like that, they are definitely talking about these Recorder Pen!

Erpang frowned: Who exactly is this Chen Sanjin? Those people seem to be looking for him?

How would I know? Ye Yin flew into a rage: We must have been tricked this time, listen to me talk about Erpang, there are not so many coincidences in this world. First, your family received the Sheepskin Roll, then, I obtained the Recorder Pen, but these two things have nothing to do with this dogshit Chen Sanjin, I suspect that this is just a trap, someone intentionally set a trap, and unluckily, the two of us will not get involved in this mess!

Erpang said: It can't be, you're thinking too much, and we don't even know this Chen Sanjin, even if it's a trap, he would definitely first find us and then discuss it, how can he send the things to you for no reason, it might really be a coincidence!

What a coincidence, Erpang!

Ye Yin said speechlessly: Up till now, don't you see that there are definitely two groups of people fighting over the Sheepskin Roll and the Recorder Pen, and the Dai Clan characters and content of the Recorder Pen must be extremely important, that's why they are fighting like this, one group is the group of people who just blocked us, another group is that Chen Sanjin, we were dragged into this mess by him, and the Recorder Pen in my hands was intentionally sent to me by him, he wants me to be his scapegoat!

After Erpang heard this, he suddenly exclaimed, "Ye Yin, then according to what you've said, the treasure map might actually be real.

What do you mean? Let me tell you, someone is using us, but you are talking about treasure map. This isn't the time to be talking about treasure map, your brain is really strange, and you didn't see what happened today. Once those people find out that Recorder Pen is with me, the next person to suffer will definitely be me! "

Erpang nodded immediately: You're right, I think you should move!

Move where? I have no money!

Ye Yin said brazenly: But you are right. The two groups are fighting over this Sheepskin Roll. Even if there is no treasure map behind it, there must be some secrets.

Thump!

Hearing Ye Yin say that, Erpang immediately became spirited, he blinked his small eyes and said to Ye Yin: You are right, anything ordinary, is it worth them to look for me with guns? You've always been smarter than I am. Think about it.

Ye Yin curled his lips: Being smarter than you is an indisputable fact, there's no need to argue. I am currently thinking how did they find your family, was Chen Sanjin intentionally providing them with a clue? Or did they come by themselves?

What's the point? Erpang asked in confusion.

Of course it's meaningful!

Ye Yin said: Let's give an example, if this is a trap, and if it was deliberately set by Chen Sanjin, and he involved us, he would definitely think of a way to bring the opponent into the trap, so he will reveal the matter of your family taking in the Sheepskin Roll, and I am sure that after that, he will continue to leak out the news of me taking in the Recorder Pen, and at that time, the one who will be truly unlucky will be us, but if this is not a trap, but a coincidence happens to us, and this kind of coincidence is extremely small, but it cannot be said that it will not exist, and there is someone who will win the lottery right? If it was not because they found us, then Chen Sanjin would have definitely found us quickly. No matter who it is, we cannot afford to offend them, so we have to think of a way to throw them away! "

Throw it away?

Erpang was surprised: Could the Sheepskin Roll really be the treasure map, and we threw it away like that? The Dai languages have not been translated yet!

Ye Yin stared at him and said: Why do you still not understand, Sheepskin Roll is just a smoke bomb, what those people are looking for is a Recorder Pen, if not they won't say that the Sheepskin Roll is worthless. I have an idea, but I don't know if you dare to work with me!

Erpang immediately said: If there's anything you don't dare to do, just say it!

Ye Yin thought for a while before continuing: Others are using us as meat shields and using us as substitutes for the dead, this kind of loss in business cannot be done, I feel that we can turn the tables around, since the Recorder Pen is in our hands, I feel that we can sell it at a high price, when that time comes, there will definitely be people that will come to buy it, for example, for tonight's group, they will definitely not lack money!

Erpang frowned: These people have guns, they don't need to spend money to steal it?

Ye Yin laughed coldly: "Whether they can snatch us or not, the reason why we have them in our hands is because of the Recorder Pen, as long as we do not see the Recorder Pen, we will be fine, but we do not want them to know who we really are. When the time comes, we just need to find a safe place to trade, and they will pay us the Recorder Pen, and after taking the thing, they will turn around and leave, and they will never be able to find out who we are in their lives, furthermore, there is no need to find out who we are.

Erpang listened for a long time before clenching his teeth and saying, Anyway, I will listen to you. You can do whatever you want.

Alright, how about this, we'll go tomorrow …

The two of them started to discuss noisily, and Hai Shui, who was hiding outside the warehouse and was only one wall away from them, heard their conversation and frowned: This brat isn't easy to control, he's too smart, with just a few words he managed to analyze the whole situation, it completely goes against our plans. Sanjin can be considered to have met an opponent this time, if we were to rashly rush in and talk about the Recorder Pen, it will definitely arouse their suspicions, so the things after that will not be good …

After thinking for a while, Hai Yang walked to the side and quietly dialed my number.

Hello? Hai Shui, I have already brought Xiao Lei along on the road here. After you have finished explaining everything to the two kids over there, we will meet directly at Zhenxiong County! I picked up the phone and started talking about what to do next!

Don't be in such a hurry, you're taking too many f * cking big steps!

Hai Yang said irritably before continuing, "I had a bit of an accident on my side. Originally, I thought that this brat was greedy for money and would let us use his weakness to get him to help us set up a trap. But now, it seems that he is too smart and did not follow the route that we set up.

Trade?

I was shocked and a little stupefied in my heart, as I didn't expect Ye Yin to say such a thing.

Hai Yang continued to speak, "This brat guessed our intentions with a few words, and then saw that he means we don't want to use him, so he prepared to use the Recorder Pen to trade with our Third Party Force. Once he succeeds in doing the deal with our Third Party Force, we will be in a passive position.

Wait a moment!

I rubbed my temples, feeling a little impatient. Ye Yin wanting to make a deal was indeed out of my expectations, I thought that this person was smart, but I didn't think that he was so ambitious, and could really not be easily controlled, and I had already found out what was going on with the thunder in the Recorder Pen, and was waiting for the sea to start, and then, bring Ye Yin and the others over, and leave a tail to lure the Mr Xu and the rest of the organizations over there. At that time, I would activate another hidden line that I could trap either the entire organization or one of the Mr Xu.

It was a blessing in disguise, I suddenly thought. Not only did Ye Yin not harm our plan, it would be even more perfect.

Thinking about this, I took out my phone and said to Hai Yang, Didn't they want to trade? Let them trade!

No, what do you think?

Hai Yang said in a daze, "The reason why we are leading the organizations and Third Party Force by the nose is because the Sheepskin Roll and the recording are both in our hands. Once the transaction is successful, the Sheepskin Roll and the recording will all fall into the hands of a third party.

I smiled. Don't be in such a hurry. When I said to make them do the trade, I didn't say that they would do it with a third party. They're after money, but no matter who it is, it can't be you!

Hai Yang was startled, then came to a realization: Sanjin, you are f * cking evil, why didn't I see that before?

Stop flattering me, I don't have any money to give you … I scolded him with a smile: Hurry up and watch over Ye Yin, this brat is too slippery, I don't know when he will come up with a rotten idea, I hope that no new problems will arise!

Fine, just wait for father's good news!

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Lei, who was driving, looked at me and said, Crown Prince, are we still going to Zhenxiong?

Mhmm!

I nodded. We still have to go, the Thunder District has already been cleared out, so before we can plan ahead, I have to first figure out the exact location, otherwise, with the power of the organization and the Mr Xu, it won't be that easy to lure them out. You keep it open first, I'll open it in the middle of the night, I'll take a rest first!

...

Beijing.

Mr Xu held the phone and asked: Are you sure this Zhao Xue Song has nothing to do with Chen Sanjin?

On the other side of the phone, Shen Tao's voice carried a tone of reverence as he said, Please be at ease Mr Xu, I have investigated everything clearly, the Sheepskin Roll was taken in by Zhao Xuesong's family at the pawnshop, the pawnbroker is called Xu Minghai, it is a local three-handed pawnshop, I have already caught this person, according to him, the Sheepskin Roll was stolen from the train by him, and after that, he pawned it onto Zhao Xuesong's pawnshop, it has nothing to do with Chen Sanjin.

Mr Xu was silent for a while, then said: I know, this is too much of a coincidence, I don't think it is that simple. Don't move first, I'll go to the Zhaotong with Lao Ji tomorrow, I'll explain in detail when we are there!

Alright!

Oh right, how is Lee Dasoong? Any clues?

Nothing much. He had already noticed us at the edge of him, so he just stayed in the bar all day and didn't do anything!

After all, he is still a member of the Lao Ji. Everything will wait until I reach the Zhaotong! "

...

Zhejiang, Wen Ling!

Zheng Xiqiao pulled down the curtains of the hotel and asked the people around him: How long have this group of people followed for?

It's been more than two months, and they're all strangers. I've never seen them before!

See how long they can endure before they attack again. I want to see what kind of big fish Chen Sanjin has invited this time, to actually dare attack me!

CHAPTER 302 - BEWITCHING FOREST

Xiao Lei and I rushed over to Zhenxiong County on the second day. After staying here for a day, we only saw the person Ma Yuanhao recommended at dinner time!

His name is Liu Yan Zhi, he is the vice bureau of the local weather department and has known Ma Yuanhao for many years.

Many people did not understand what the Bureau of Meteorology was doing. To put it bluntly, the so-called Bureau of Meteorology was a government department that mainly focused on weather forecasting, climate forecasting, artificial weather affecting, drought monitoring and forecasting, lightning defense, and agro-meteorological services.

The sound of thunder inside the Recorder Pen was shrunk by Ma Yuanhao so it should be within the Zhaotong Realm, but there are also a lot of counties under the jurisdiction of the Zhaotong City. During this period of time, we have looked for seven to eight counties, and specifically asked the staff of the Meteorological Department about the thunder inside the Recorder Pen, allowing them to search according to the frequency of the lightning and the range of the magnetic field, helping us determine an accurate target!

What kind of frequency and magnetic field is it? I definitely don't understand. It contains a lot of professional terms. I'm just a layman, so I can just listen to the results.

After walking through so many counties, we specifically aimed for the location of the sound of thunder inside the Recorder Pen, but we still did not have a good result. Xiao Lei and I could only try our luck and search the whole county by county after county, before finally arriving here!

Actually, I did not have much hope in Yuanhao introducing me here. Don't misunderstand, I am not talking about your working abilities, but my family has basically given up on this matter, but Yuanhao has also said that we cannot give up on any opportunities, so I came to boldly look for you, and if there are any places I can disturb you in, please forgive me! "

Liu Yan Zhi lit up a cigarette and frowned: I've gotten to know the situation from Yuanhao, is your family sure that they went missing in our area?

I nodded my head, "I have asked some people to appraise that piece of thunder before. They are definitely within the boundaries of Zhaotong City, but with the size of a city and the number of counties under its jurisdiction, finding a person who has been missing for a few years without any news is indeed like looking for a needle in a haystack. The people at the police station have already been missing for a few years, but we still haven't found anyone.

After saying that, I took out my phone and played the recording of the thunder in it in front of Liu Jing. Other than the rumbling of thunder and the sound of rain, there was no other sound.

I shook my head. "No, my father was an explorer, and he liked to explore the deep mountains by himself all these years. He also didn't have any teammates by his side, after all, he has been missing for such a long time, and my family has already given up. But Yuanhao told me that I could use the frequency of the thunderclaps and the range of the magnetic field to determine the approximate location.

Commissioner Liu said awkwardly, It's not hard to say, it's not easy to say. Our department is quite complicated!

Pow!

I snapped my fingers at Xiao Lei, who took out a bank card and pushed it in front of Commissioner Liu.

I smiled and said: Don't worry, Chief Liu, this is the money that Yuanhao owes you. He knows that you are loyal and that you don't even need to write a IOU, but once Yuanhao writes it, the two hundred thousand that he owes you, including the IOU, is in it.

Commissioner Liu glanced at the bank card and didn't say anything.

I pouted my mouth towards Xiao Lei, who took out an exquisite packing case from his bosom. I smiled and said: I almost forgot, this is the watch that Yuanhao bought from Italy the last time you went there. I specifically gave it to sister-in-law as a gift to thank you for being so generous back then.

After saying that, I lowered my voice and said, There's no surveillance and no recording device. I chose the place. Don't worry, Commissioner Liu!

Hearing this, Commissioner Liu coughed dryly, "Uh, I almost forgot about it when you didn't say it. Yuanhao also has this, I can't believe that you remember everything that happened a few years ago so clearly, alright, since you guys were so enthusiastic, it's not good for me to reject you guys. Little Chen, help me tell Yuanhao, if there's anything he needs in the future, just tell him.

Ai, alright, I'll definitely tell him. Then, how about this recording of mine?

Make a copy and I'll give you the result tomorrow!

Sure, thank you, Commissioner Liu!

After finishing the official business, Commissioner Liu walked out of the private room in satisfaction. I continued to eat my meal, and Xiao Lei said unhappily: Crown Prince, isn't this just helping out? For people like them, it was a piece of cake. Was there really a need to do this? Two hundred thousand, f * ck, how much gold sand do we need to exchange for it?

I smiled and said, That's why you can only look for gold, and the reason why they can sit in the office, the rules of Chinese people, from ancient times to modern times, it's normal that you can't do anything. Learn more in the future!

At noon the next day, Liu Yanzhi called me and said that he had already investigated and confirmed that the location was within Zhenxiong County. However, things were a bit unexpected and we needed to interview him!

Half an hour later, we met again in the private room of the hotel yesterday. Commissioner Liu said in a hurry: I've checked this out for you guys, but you have to consider the details yourself. I have a meeting later, so I'll cut it short!

Please speak, Commissioner Liu! I solemnly nodded my head.

Chief Liu lit up a cigarette and frowned: Through the monitoring of the frequency of the thunder and the magnetic field, I can confirm that the recording range is in that area, but the problem is that that place is very dangerous, it's called Confusing Forest here, it's an abandoned mountain range. If I were to speak harshly, people basically cannot survive if they enter!

It's that serious?

I asked in shock, Why is it called an abandoned mountain range?

Commissioner Liu told us what he knew, but he didn't really say much, he just emphasized that it was very dangerous, and no matter what, he didn't suggest going in, so it was a little suspenseful for me. Afterwards, I asked the locals about Confusing Forest s, and only then did I understand a lot of the things I didn't know!

This section of Confusing Forest is also known as the abandoned mountain range, it was originally a mountain range at the foot of the Dark Peak Mountain, it was surrounded by mountains, there was no way into the basin region, there was no path in it, there was a large amount of iron ore resources in the valley, and it would always rain and rain, perhaps because of the unique terrain, there would be a lot of rain and rain, and even in winter, there would occasionally be a few dry thunder, not to mention in summer. Sometimes, when we would stand at the top of Dark Peak Mountain and look at the valley, it was like the end of the world.

When I heard this, I asked if they knew there was iron ore inside, why didn't they start mining? Why was it called an abandoned mountain range?

At that time, Commissioner Liu didn't tell us the reason, he only indistinctly said that it was related to certain projects, and that it was extremely dangerous in any case. Only after I found out about the situation from the locals did I find out the reason, which had a lot to do with his name and Confusing Forest!

Let's talk about the origin of the Confusing Forest first!

During the Qing Dynasty, or to be more accurate, during the two years of Jia Qing, an uprising broke out at the border between the Southern Cage Mansion of Guizhou and Guangxi led by Wang Sou Xian, led by Miao, Bu Yi and other ethnic minorities.

This uprising engulfed southwest, south and northwest of Guizhou, as well as the adjacent areas of Yunnan and Guangxi. The reason for this uprising was that since the inauguration of Yongzheng Emperor, he had adopted a policy of changing the soil and returning the population to the stream in Yungui and Guizhou minority areas. Although this policy promoted the social and economic development of the minority areas, it also left behind severe national oppression and class oppression!

The Han people and Manchu people, who had poured into the minority areas, belonged to the class of landlords. They colluded with the officials of the Qing government and the upper rulers of the minority groups to extort, extort, and bully the local people. The longer time passed, the deeper the anger was accumulated, and after two years of yongzheng and Qianlong, the long-accumulated anger was finally released.

The uprising was eventually suppressed, and the leaders of the imperial court, Wang Cang Xian and his men, were also escorted into the capital to be executed. However, even though Wang Cang Xian was dead, the anti-Qing uprising organization was still not completely annihilated, and the remaining remnants of their army were scattered in all directions, spreading across the entire northern and southern rivers. Among them, the predecessors of the White Lotus Cult who were in the late Qing Dynasty were left behind by this group.

After Wang Cang Xian died, the rebellion started to disperse, one of the troops was under the command of a local clan with the surname Long from Yunnan, who was a large clan, after the uprising, many of the family members had died, leaving behind only the remnants of the LongDen tribe to flee from the Manchu army, all the way until the foot of Wu Feng Mountain. Longden and the rest of the remnants all went into the Grand Canyon, preparing to fight guerrilla warfare with the Manchu soldiers, the Manchu soldiers chased after the poor bandits, and they became even more arrogant. The two troops madly rushed into the Grand Canyon, but in the end no one came out alive!

Some of them never returned, while some others completely went insane from fright. They simply could not remember what happened inside, and would die not long after, due to various factors, the Grand Canyon below the Wu Feng Mountain was called Confusing Forest, and no one dared to go inside!

Furthermore, looking down from above in Grand Canyon, the scenery here was extremely beautiful. In order to develop the tourism resources and mine the iron ores, the local leaders called the workers to open the mountain and dig the rocks, intending to build a road that would lead to Grand Canyon. However, just as they were building this road, an unimaginable terror occurred!

CHAPTER 303 - A PLACE ABANDONED BY THE HEAVENS

Zhenxiong County is a large county with a resident population of over 1.8 million, not to mention the floating population. In order to become a county city, the local leaders, in order to obtain tourism resources, set their sights on the Grand Canyon of the Wu Feng Mountain, and planned to develop this place into a tourist area. Because this place itself has historical legends, and there is still a large amount of iron ore that needs to be mined …

However, the Confusing Forest was hidden within the Wu Feng Mountain canyon, and there was no path in or out. Trees that reached the sky filled the air, and the cliffs twisted and turned, making it extremely steep and precipitous, filled with snakes, worms, mice and ants, as well as barbaric beasts. Furthermore, there was also the Miao People's World, which made it so that over the past hundred years, no one had ever dared to go in.

Over the past few years, the engineering team had used the drone's leap Grand Canyon to map out the terrain. They planned to build a mountain road to circle around them and enter the area, but when the road was halfway completed, something strange happened!

First of all, the weather inside the Grand Canyon was extremely abnormal, and in about six to seven days, there was a torrential rain. Lightning vibrations, and frequently there would be lightning strikes.

Because the county leader had urged them to go missing, and Confusing Forest was a distance away from the city, the engineering team had all set up tents and lived inside the mountains. In the mountain valleys with no signs of human life, only this group of engineering team lived inside.

They had initially thought that they were just slacking and did not want to continue doing it, so they decided to escape. After the engineering team reported this to the local police station, no one had expected that there would be more and more people disappearing, and they didn't even leave the Grand Canyon area, so they simply disappeared without a trace.

After reporting it to the leader, the leader of the engineering team consoled him and sent a rescue team to look for him. The rescue team thought that there were too many savage beasts running rampant in the forest, and those who were left alone might have been dragged away by the savage beasts. So they told the engineering team not to worry, they would find some clues within a few days!

The search and rescue team only managed to calm themselves for two to three days because during the search and rescue team members had also gone missing without a trace. It was said that the people had been dragged away by a savage beast, but there were no traces of them at all.

Under the pressure of helplessness, the county leader could only give up on his Confusing Forest. After the incident, the news spread even more, and it seemed like he could not get out, even the villagers who lived near the canyon all out of the valley. After more than ten years, the Grand Canyon was still the same, even half of the abandoned road that the construction team had built a dozen years ago was covered up, the entire canyon seemed like it had been abandoned by the heavens, so the locals called this place the abandoned mountain range!

In 2009, an explorer from another country heard about Grand Canyon from somewhere, so he brought a total of seven people to explore the place, saying that they wanted to unravel the mysteries of Grand Canyon.

Some said that the expedition team had found the remains of the Miao people, that they had perished after a great battle with the soldiers they were pursuing. Others said that the expedition team had found the missing people of the engineering team, that they were not dead at all, that they were just crazy, that they had wandered the valleys for more than ten years because they could not find a way out at all.

At that time, it was even on the news in the provinces of Yunnan. There were even some reporters from the legendary television stations who came to the edge of Grand Canyon to do some programs, saying that they would solve this feudal mystery that had been passed down for hundreds of years in one go.

However, after half a month of searching, the foreign expedition team was no longer in contact with the people outside. Even if they used a drone to investigate, they were unable to find anything. After the death of their foreign friend, the situation became even worse.

In the end, they found the corpses of the foreign expedition team members less than three kilometers away from the Confusing Forest. All of them were dead, and not a single one of them were alive. Even their weapons, equipment and food were all checked, not a single one was missing, and there were still a lot of them. The most terrifying thing was that when the People's Liberation Army checked around their corpses, they found that these people had been wandering back and forth in this place of death ever since they had entered, and they had not gone into the depths at all. It was as if they were trapped by an invisible force, unable to leave at all, and finally scared to death!

Even the local villagers were secretive about this matter, and no one dared to bring it up. From then on, the Grand Canyon of Wu Feng Mountain had become a taboo expression, and ten years later, Wu Feng Mountain was still a mountain peak, and the Grand Canyon of the Confusing Forest had long since become a abandoned mountain, as if it had been abandoned by the heavens!

It never occurred to me that the source of the thunder was actually recorded from inside. What did that mean?

Dong Jin decades ago, already knew about the existence of Confusing Forest and even recorded the sound of thunder inside. But the most surprising thing was that he was able to come out alive.

What did Thunder have to do with what happened at Grand Canyon?

The reason why the Bewitching Soul Valley was so surprised, could it be that it had something to do with the Parallel Space?

Had those people accidentally entered the Parallel Space?

However, he couldn't explain why the other dead people, such as the foreigners' expedition team, had been circling the place for more than ten days. Could they have been hit by a ghost, and what had scared them to death?

Just what kind of terrifying existence would scare these foreigners to death?

But when I thought about how terrifying Confusing Forest were, my heart still more or less jumped up a little. It's not like the Wild Mountain in Mount Kunlun where, no matter how dangerous those places were, they would at least be able to survive and come out alive., on the other hand, had never been out of the Grand Canyon alive since ancient times!

What if he just went in and didn't come out?

Furthermore, according to the plan, how would they be able to confuse the Third Party Force's Mr Xu s and organisations to come here and eliminate them in one fell swoop?

There was no movement from Ye Yin's side, and since there was no news from Hai Yang, it seemed like he was still dealing with Ye Yin's matter. Since Ma Yuanhao still had not called me, he must be making progress, if I were to appear and release the news, it would be equivalent to completely giving up on Ye Yin's line. Then, I would personally fight on the stage with a third party.

How could he make full use of this opportunity?

In those few days, I didn't act on impulse. Instead, I gathered around the village to ask about Confusing Forest from the elderly villagers, and while doing so, I tried to think of a way to wait for Hai Yang to call me. After an entire week, Hai Hai Hai Shui finally called me and told me that Ye Yin was already prepared to make his move.

I immediately became spirited and said to Hai Shui on the phone, Change the plan, I want you to tell Ye Yin about the recording Grand Canyon, I want to let his greed increase infinitely!

Hai Yang doubtfully said, That's not right. Isn't this changing our previous plan? If I tell Ye Yin about the Grand Canyon, then once the organization or a third party finds him and ask him about it, our plans will still be exposed! "

I smiled: Your mission is to tell Ye Yin about the recorded Grand Canyon, and even tactfully tell him that there is a treasure inside, but you can't reveal your identity, and make Ye Yin suspect that this is our trap, and you can't even let Ye Yin know that you're telling him about it on purpose!

Hai Yang jumped up and down on the other side of the phone, F * ck your grandpa. He's so smart, do you think laozi can beat him?

I said shamelessly, "I don't care about that, but you must settle this matter well, and let Ye Yin trade with the person from Third Party Force. But before we do this, you must let Ye Yin know about the matter of Grand Canyon.

After hanging up, just as he was about to give Ma Yuanhao a call, the phone suddenly rang. The caller ID showed that it was an unfamiliar number.

Hello?

I pick up the phone and whisper.

Bastard, your fox tail is exposed! A rather serious voice came over the phone.

...

Inside Ye Yin's warehouse.

Erpang madly pressed on his phone and said: Done, the news has been spread out. I have specially spent money to find a lot of popular people on Weibo and even helped me forward it to the media. I believe that before long, there will definitely be someone who can contact us!

Uh, I know! Ye Yin nodded his head before frowning and saying softly, I still feel that it's not too peaceful. Erpang, come, let's go to the antique storage room!

What?

Erpang asked in a daze, Why are we going there?

Ye Yin looked at the Sheepskin Roll and the Recorder Pen in his hands and said, Before we trade, I need to find out what the secret behind this is first!

CHAPTER 304 - GREAT MASTER HAI THE GOD STICK

The antique shop was actually a night market street near the suburbs. Every single night here was packed to the brim with antique jade and stone inscriptions, as well as many unknown treasures. To put it bluntly, it was like an underground street!

But the difference was, there were a lot of fake treasures inside. Ten of them were probably fake, but there was no guarantee that there weren't any real ones. It all depended on one's eyesight.

Some vendors didn't even know their own origins and would just treat it as a fake. But if you were able to see through it and recognize it, then you can use the low price to exchange for it. It's not impossible to suddenly become rich overnight; of course, there were also high-priced items that ended up in scrap metal.

A few years ago, a man from Zhaotong spent forty-five dollars on a pair of jade pendants at the antique store. That jade pendant looked extremely poor, and its color was especially dark, it did not look like an antique at all. The seller did not know where the jade pendant came from, so he said it was from the countryside.

When the big guy left the antique shop and went to the identification center at the street entrance, they found out that it was a Double Flying Jade Pendant from one of the most famous courtesans in the Song Dynasty, Li Shishi. According to the legend, it was a gift from a lover before she entered the brothel.

This was the example of suddenly becoming rich overnight, and of course, there were those who went bankrupt overnight. For example, in the middle of the street, there was a stone gambling, and the so-called stone gambling, was to bet whether there were jade stones inside the stone.

There was a private appraisal center at the entrance of the antique shop, and the appraiser was an antiques expert named Elder Wang. The antiques expert was called Elder Wang, and he was responsible for supporting the building of the antique shop, so Elder Wang set up his own appraisal center to help customers appraise the treasures they bought. The appraisal fee was also 50 yuan per item, and the price was very common, as long as Elder Wang appraised something, it was 99% real, and if it was fake, 100% fake, then Elder Wang's credibility would definitely be at the top of the antique shop!

Some people were puzzled. Since Elder Wang's eyesight was so good, then wouldn't he be able to suddenly get rich every night if he casually made a trip to the antique shop?

In fact, in the Antique Temple, Elder Wang had set a rule that he would never interfere in the trade of the Antique Temple, nor would he buy anything from it. His existence was only responsible for appraising the authenticity of the item, he did not lack money!

Tonight, the person Ye Yin and Erpang were looking for was Elder Wang from the Antique Temple's appraisal center!

Passing through the crowded streets, Ye Yin punctually arrived at Elder Wang's appraisal center at nine o'clock at night with Erpang. There were no attendants in the hall, Erpang carried the self-made Sheepskin Roll s that were wrapped in his backpack and recorded sounds in his arms, and looked around vigilantly.

Creak!

With a light sound, the doors to the hall was pushed open, and a man with thick eyebrows walked out. He swept his gaze across Ye Yin and his group, and then spoke as loud as a bell: What are you doing?

Ye Yin smiled as he handed a cigarette to the big sized man: Big brother, we are here to look for Elder Wang!

The burly man glanced at the inner door behind him without leaving a trace, before saying, Elder Wang is not here today. If you have anything to appraise, you can look for me!

Erpang sized up the big size man and asked suspiciously, Who are you? Could he be compared with Elder Wang? Let's go, Ye Yin. Elder Wang is not here yet, let's come back tomorrow!

Elder Wang will not be here tomorrow. He will not be back for another month!

Without waiting for Ye Yin to speak, the tall and sturdy man stared at him and said, However, I can appraise anything that Elder Wang can appraise, so you can rest assured that Teacher Wang and I are from the same sect!

Teacher and fellow student?

Elder Wang was already over sixty years old, and the person in front of him was at most thirty. With a face full of fierceness, he looked like a person from the society, how could he be from the same sect as Teacher Wang?

Even though he thought that, Ye Yin came from an antique family, so he knew that people should not judge each other by their appearances. He immediately replied respectfully: I have yet to ask, how do I address you as big brother?

The big man lit up a cigarette and said with a frown, Your father … Everyone calls me Master Hai, what are you two trying to appraise? Take it out and let me see. If you don't trust me, then leave quickly. Don't disturb me!

With that, the man who called himself Master Hai crossed his legs and started smoking, looking at Ye Yin and the others sloppily. He did not speak anymore, and waited for Ye Yin and the others to make a decision!

Erpang said to Ye Yin in a low voice, I think we should leave. This person looks like a hooligan, how can he be Elder Wang's fellow sect member?

Ye Yin frowned: Since we're already here, we can't possibly waste time. Let him have a look, since the real sheepskin has already been stolen by those people, and this is fake, even if we can't confirm anything, we won't lose out, it's just the appraisal fee of fifty yuan.

Rows... Alright!"

Erpang agreed hesitantly. He then put down his bag, took out the self-made Sheepskin Roll and placed it on the table, then said to the Master Hai: We are determined to see something that is worth thousands of gold, let's see if you have the ability to find out the clues, let's first say, if you don't see it, then don't waste our time, if …

Take it, you chatty chatterbox!

The Master Hai did not wait for Erpang to finish speaking before snatching the Sheepskin Roll away impatiently. He placed it under the lamp and turned it over and over, continuously using his fingers to feel the sheepskin, pretending to be real. After looking for a good seven or eight minutes, his expression suddenly changed, and he placed the sheepskin down, and said to Ye Yin and Erpang: This thing is yours?

Erpang patted his chest and said, Of course, why? Can't you see it?

Master Hai smiled and said: Oh, Sheepskin Roll, what can't be seen? But you have been tricked by others, this is just an ordinary piece of sheepskin, and there is no smell of medicine on it, seems like it is still modern sheep, just used some special methods to dry the sheepskin, thus it seems a little old, but it seems like at most 20 to 30 years of age, since it is modern sheepskin, then the things drawn on it are worth even less!

Hearing Master Hai's words, Ye Yin and Erpang were shocked. They never would have thought that the seemingly ordinary big sized man in front of them would actually know so much.

Erpang was about to say that he would show Master Hai the inner layer, but Ye Yin immediately stopped him, and said respectfully: Master Hai, is this piece of sheepskin really not worth a penny? Why don't you take a closer look?

You want to test me?

The Master Hai laughed, and then used his fingers to pinch the middle layer of the sheepskin, and then used his strength to pull, suddenly, the sheepskin paper became two, revealing the layer of dense Dai language written on it. Looking at this scene, Ye Yin and Erpang were completely stunned, one had to know that the reason why Ye Yin was able to see the inner layer of the Sheepskin Roll, was because he had already been opened by someone before, and it was still extremely secretive, other than Ye Yin, even Erpang's parents had not seen it before!

Because of this, they specially bought a 20 year old impersonating sheepskin on the internet. In the middle, they imitated the photos of the Sheepskin Roll, and wrote down the Dai Clan's fonts, one by one, and then made a layer, this layer had never been opened before, and if no one did not have a good eye, they would have never seen it before. But, this Master Hai in front of them had already found the location of the layer, this made Ye Yin and Erpang feel extremely impressed!

Do you really think there's any treasure in this mezzanine?

Master Hai said with a smile, he then moved the sheepskin closer to his nose and took a sniff, then said: Un, there's a smell of ink, it seems like the words inside have just been written not long ago, look, the corner is still stained with ink, how much did you guys spend on this?

Ye Yin and Erpang's request was naturally not true or false, it was just for the Dai Clan's word's content, so he casually said a number and then asked: Master Hai, for now, even if we were cheated, we will not be willing, what kind of words do you know? Can you translate it for us?

How could Hai Yang recognize those words, much less translate them. He knew that the cultivation level of the Sheepskin Roll knew that the Sheepskin Roll was fake, because he had truly seen it before, and Ma Yuanhao had also told him about it before, but now that he saw this fake Sheepskin Roll, it was as though he was reading a heavenly book. But it wasn't important, what was important was that Ye Yin also didn't know what was inside, so he could freely translate the words according to his own plans!

He took out the magnifying glass and looked at the font. Then, he pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, This font is not Chinese characters. It's actually a minority font!

Ye Yin was startled, but at the moment, he no longer suspected that the Master Hai in front of him was from the same sect as Teacher Wang. He asked urgently, Master Hai, which tribe's word is written on it, what is written inside?

Hai Yang frowned and said, The Dai family. Be good, you seem to be talking about some ethnic group rebelling and burying their treasures!

Treasure trove?

Ye Yin and Erpang cried out in shock at the same time, their eyes wide open!

Yes, that's right, but since the sheepskin is fake, and the words were written only recently, the treasure must also be randomly bragged about. You don't need to believe it.

Erpang said anxiously: Master Hai, you don't need to care if it is true or not, what treasure is it that you speak of? Where?"

Hai Yang pushed away the fake Sheepskin Roll and said, Both of you are saying that it's fake, there's no need for you to translate. You two are still young and not learning well, and both of you are working hard, always thinking of getting what you want without working hard. Don't daydream, hurry up and pay the appraisal fee!

Ye Yin laughed and said: Master Hai, don't, you're not being too kind this time. Even if we spend money to appraise and appraise fake, we should have the right to know what is written inside, right? Could it be that there really is a treasure inside? You intentionally didn't tell us, but you're going to search for it after we leave?

Bah!

Hai Yang spat unhappily, Master Hai, do I look like that kind of person? Since you guys want to know, then I will translate it for you guys, it is true that you guys will decide on your own, it is said that during the Qing Dynasty, in the Sichuan area of Guangxi, there was a rebellion of ethnic minorities, but after it was suppressed by the troops, a small remnants of the army fled to Yunnan and hid all the treasures they plundered during the rebellion, then the soldiers of the Qing army sent their troops to chase them down, the two groups fought to the end at the place where the treasures were hidden, it was more or less like that!

Erpang listened and said with relish: As expected, there are treasures, my parents did not make a mistake this time. Sigh, Master Hai, you still haven't talked about where the treasures are hidden, where did they die?

Didn't you say? I remember that I said to wait, I'll take a look!

The Master Hai glanced at the words on it and said: I said, we escaped to the Grand Canyon at the Wu Feng Mountain in Yunnan, and then we perished together inside. Wait, what is the meaning of the last sentence? The treasure was hidden in the place where the lightning gathered? Lightning gathering? What do you mean? You don't understand?

Thunder and lightning?

Ye Yin's eyes lit up, thinking about the thunder from the Recorder Pen, he immediately understood what was going on. He hurriedly gave the appraising fees of the fifty yuan to Master Hai, then pulled Erpang out of the hall in a hurry.

After the two of them left, Hai Yang rushed into the hall and saw an old man tied to a chair as he glared at the sea.

Old Master, don't be angry anymore. Look, didn't I earn another 50 yuan for you? I'm going to leave now!

After saying that, Hai Yang untied Elder Wang and flew out of the hall. She then called me, Hello? Sanjin, the fish has bitten the hook!

...

Zhaotong Airport!

Mr Xu, who had just gotten off the plane, opened his phone and saw an unread message from Shen Tao. It was a message from Shen Tao.

CHAPTER 305 - READY TO GO

Ye Yin, what do you think about what the God Stick said? Is that true?

When he returned to Ye Yin's residence, Erpang anxiously asked in a hurry. His face was filled with excitement, after all, he had already been certain that the Sheepskin Roll were related to the treasure map from the beginning!

Shh, lower your voice, Ye Xi just fell asleep!

Ye Yin said softly, then pulled Erpang along as they tiptoed to the exit of the warehouse. You haven't been home for two days, how's the situation at home?

Erpang waved his hands: It's alright, I've called to ask, the shop is temporarily closed, my mom was scared and went back to my grandma's house. My dad followed me back to rest for a few days, I'm a free man now, I'll go wherever you want to go!

That's good!

The Master Hai said that the treasure was hidden in the place where lightning was gathered. That means the Recorder Pen thunder in our hands is the location of the treasure, and the Sheepskin Roll are connected to the Recorder Pen. Erpang, let's put it in our hearts, do you dare to go to the treasure deposit? "

Erpang slapped his thigh: Why would I not dare? I already said that I was going to look for treasures, and it's only because you don't believe that there's such a treasure that we are stranded here, when are we leaving?

No rush!

Ye Yin frowned: I need to first investigate the situation of the uprising against the Wu Feng Mountain Tribe. As for the situation regarding the Grand Canyon, we are not too sure either, and it is also a problem how to find the treasure once we enter. How about this, Erpang, how much money do you have?

Erpang immediately took out a bank card and said, When my father left, he gave me thirty thousand dollars, is that enough? If it's not enough, I will get the old man some more information."

Ye Yin laughed: Enough, I still have a few thousand on me. I will leave all of them to Ye Xi, then you will be in charge of buying some equipment from the wild. I will call you again to let you know about the details!

Alright, no problem!

Erpang said with a smile, but just as he was about to continue speaking, a bell rang. The phone in his pocket suddenly rang, and Erpang picked it up without even looking: Hello?

Zhao Xuesong? A cold voice came over the phone.

Yeah, who are you?

We want to buy what's in your hands!

What? Wait a moment!

Erpang was startled and quickly whispered to Ye Yin: There's feedback from Weibo, someone is calling to buy Recorder Pen, what do we do?

Ye Yin decisively shook his hand: I'm not selling, what's the point of selling the treasures?!

Erpang nodded, and spoke into the phone: We are not selling!

After saying that, he hung up the phone, thought for a while, and felt that it was not right, so he switched the phone off, and after discussing some things regarding buying equipment with Ye Yin, he left by himself. Looking at Erpang's departing back view, Ye Yin also frowned, in his heart he had the biggest doubt, since the sheepskin was from the Ming Dynasty, why is it recorded of the Qing Dynasty?

Was the Master Hai lying?

Or was it someone from Qing Dynasty who obtained the sheepskin of the Ming dynasty and purposely recorded it on the map?

Urban district, a certain star hotel!

Shen Tao looked at the hung up phone in a daze before looking back at Mr Xu, Hanged? He said he won't sell it! "

Are you sure it's Thunder's Recorder Pen? Mr Xu frowned, lit a cigarette and asked.

Shen Tao wiped the sweat off his forehead: "The person who sent the message on Weibo is called Zhao Xuesong, and is none other than the son of the Sheepskin Roll. We went to his shop to search for him last night, and the Sheepskin Roll was brought back, but we didn't see anything related to the recording.

Bang!

Mr Xu suddenly kicked Shen Tao on his butt with a gloomy face: Your entire family was searched by you but you missed the recording, what the hell are you doing?

Shen Tao knew he was in the wrong and did not dare speak more, after thinking for a while, he wanted to shift the blame onto Lee Dasoong, but suddenly, he thought of something, and anxiously said to Mr Xu: Crap, there is another person that was neglected by us.

Who?

I don't know. It seems to be a friend of Zhao Xuesong. He came here when we were searching his house. We thought it was to find Zhao Xuesong, so we didn't care. Could the recording be on that kid?

Investigate, we must find this person!

Don't worry!

Lao Ji, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up to stop Su Yun. Mr Xu, don't alert the enemy!

Uncle Ji, what time is it for you to alert the enemy? Shen Tao anxiously said: The recording must be in that brat's hands, you have seen the photo on Weibo, all of them are Recorder Pen, it is not only us who know of the news, maybe Chen Sanjin and the people from the organization are rushing here too, we have to hurry!

Mr Xu also looked at Lao Ji doubtfully and asked: Is there a problem?

Lao Ji shook his head: All of you should think about it carefully first, they forwarded the message on Weibo saying that they want to sell the Recorder Pen at a sky-high price, at that time they probably guessed that the Recorder Pen was very important, and that it was very likely related to Shen Tao going to the shop to ask for the Sheepskin Roll. They thought that the Recorder Pen was hiding some big secret, but they did not understand what was going on inside, so they said that it was selling the Recorder Pen at a high price. They probably know the secret of the recording, so they're going to look for it themselves. They don't want to sell it to anyone else!

Mr Xu hesitated for a while before nodding: That makes sense, Lao Ji has always been very accurate with people, they must have found out Thunder's secret.

Lao Ji then asked Shen Tao: Are you sure these two have nothing to do with Chen Sanjin or even Xing Sihai?

Shen Tao nodded: I've checked, they don't even know who Chen Sanjin is, the Sheepskin Roll was stolen from them by a thief on the train and sold to them.

Alright then! The Lao Ji laughed and said: Rather than capturing people, why not follow them? Since we already know about the recording, Chen Sanjin and the organizations should know too. Soon, there will be people coming to find us. We might as well wait until the people from the organization or Chen Sanjin come and find them, then we can follow them in the dark, and keep an eye on them all. Then, no matter who it is, we will be able to get in contact with all of them as easily as we can, and when the time comes, we will definitely be able to catch them off guard!

Mr Xu frowned and thought for a while before replying, "They're in the dark now, they can deal with any situation that happens, and do it, and immediately investigate the whereabouts of the
