"Oh, it seems that he is still a little angry, and he looks a bit like a young man now." Wu Youning took a sip of the physalis. Although it was a bit sour, he still looked like he was enjoying it.
"Compared with my uncle, I can't call you greedy." Li Chongrun said in his heart. Looking at you, I'm afraid you are not only greedy for money, but also stingy. You are much more excessive than my uncle.
"You make money to make money. I make money to look after people. We are different." Wu Youning shook his head, with a look on his face that the world is drunk and I am alone. "Although Your Majesty has his own arrangements,
I don’t want to admit it.”
"What a coincidence, I don't want to admit it either."
Li Chongrun originally thought that his father-in-law was here to show off his new son-in-law today, but he didn't expect that he and his cheap uncle actually wanted to go together, and his face was a little excited.
Wu Youning glanced at Li Chongrun somewhat unexpectedly. He didn't expect that this soft pillow that he always thought had his own ideas, "In that case, I have some arrangements, and I hope Brother Run will cooperate with him."
"Young man also has some arrangements. I hope my uncle will cooperate with me." Li Chongrun smiled at Wu Youning with a very sincere expression.
After finishing a tasteless meal, Li Chongrun and Di Renjie prepared to walk to the small courtyard that had been turned into an archaeological site.
Before leaving, Wu Youning was finishing the last piece of fish meat. Instead of washing his hands with soup like other fastidious people, he wiped it on the tablecloth and was done.
"Boy, you have your own arrangements. I don't care. Just don't do anything to my two girls. Otherwise, I don't care whether you are a prince or Feng Yiwei. I will make your death ugly."
"Then I would like to advise uncle, just follow me as you have arranged. If I hear some bad rumors about our aunt on the street, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to do business. Farewell!"
"No!"
The two men armed with guns and clubs left the scene angrily, but when they saw Li Chongrun walking away, King Jianchang showed a playful smile, "He still has a bit of a temper. If he uses his methods well, he really has such a son-in-law.
, it’s also a very interesting thing to think about.”
Regardless of the still noisy singing and dancing outside, Wu Youning waved, and a servant brought a deck chair over. He fell asleep in the bustling environment, with a few faint snores coming from the room.
"This King Jianchang has a lot of connections in the capital of the gods. He wants to ruin this marriage. I'm afraid your boy will be splashed with a lot of dirty water."
After going downstairs, Di Renjie said to Li Chongrun with a smile, but judging from his expression, he didn't seem too worried.
"A bad marriage is not a struggle for power and gain. At most, it means saying bad things about the boy and ruining his reputation. The most common way is to say that the boy's moral character is lacking." As a former street writer, he has written several novels about the Ming Dynasty.
Li Chongrun was so ruthless in telling this kind of story.
"What I'm most worried about is that he can throw dirty water on me, but don't hurt my family. Fortunately, the King of Jianchang also has this idea. If we are fighting between gentlemen, no matter who wins or loses, this marriage will not be possible.
."
Di Renjie shook his head, feeling that these two people were too childish, "What your Majesty wants to do actually has nothing to do with your ideas."
"What my uncle said makes sense. However, your majesty's random remarks are really unreasonable."
While talking, Lao Chen's small courtyard has arrived.
Many of the secret passages have been dug out, and the earth and rubble destroyed by the fire have been cleared out, and several mechanisms such as crossbows and flying stones have been set up.
The person who wanted to build this secret passage attached great importance to the place where the secret passage connects, and used multiple mechanisms to protect it. But he didn't expect that the person who cracked it would actually use such a large-scale uncovered method. The exquisite layout has become a success.
The blind man's eyes, decoration.
At the end of the secret passage is a stone gate. Judging from the decoration and patterns on it, it has a strong Wei and Jin style. It should be that this place was originally an ancient tomb and was changed into a secret room by Lao Chen.
The stone door was slightly cracked by the fire and fell to the side miserably. The attached secret room was almost completely burned by the fire, leaving only some remains of bottles and cans, because the table where they were stored was destroyed by the fire and was very scattered.
It was broken into pieces and scattered all over the floor.
Because a corner of the secret room had been dug out and fresh air had flowed into it, it was already possible for people to enter. When Li Chongrun and Di Renjie arrived, Cui Chenggui and several Dali Temple servants were counting the things inside, and a scribe was taking a
Keep a notebook to record.
Contrary to Li Chongrun's fears, no remains of Lao Chen's family were found in the secret room.
Countless bottles and cans were moved out and piled in the sun, but the sealing wax melted by the fire. When a few were knocked over, the powder inside and a few blackened carbon balls rolled away.
When it comes out, it will fall into pieces when exposed to wind and moisture.
Di Renjie opened a complete clay pot, carefully poured out the contents, and carefully distinguished them, with a look of confusion on his face.
"Uncle, does he know what this is?"
Li Chongrun saw that the white powder looked a bit like chalk dust. He wanted to dip his finger into it and ask, but was stopped by Di Renjie. "Don't move, that's lime."
"What about the black one?" Li Chongrun felt as if he had a weak hand. He saw Di Renjie holding the black carbon ball in his hand and looking at it. He also took one and found that it was no different from burnt meat except that it was burnt.
Taste, vaguely meaty.
"If I admit it correctly, this should be a human treasure."
"Young man, I've heard of sheep and cow treasures, but this human treasure is... me*!"
Li Chongrun suddenly realized what it was and quickly dropped the thing in his hand. Thinking that he had taken something from someone else and pondering it for a long time, he felt sick and quickly asked someone to get some water to wash his hands.
.
"It seems that the little treasure that was plucked a month ago is among these bottles and jars."
While they were talking, the government officials took out many iron knives, strange-shaped scissors, and some locks from the secret room. They must have been the tools used by Lao Chen for his work.
The secret room was emptied, but no clues related to Lao Chen's disappearance were found.
Li Chongrun and Di Renjie also went down and walked around in the small secret room. Di Renjie noticed something unusual. "There's something wrong here."
"Did uncle discover something?"
"Looking at the rules of the tomb door, this should have been a tomb in the Cao Wei period. It was turned into a secret room by this old man to hide some things. Most of the tombs in this period were composed of a square front room and a rectangular back room. But where we are now
That’s where the front room is, where’s the entrance to the back room?”
Li Chongrun didn't expect that to investigate a case, he needed to know some knowledge about tomb robbing, but after listening to Di Renjie's words, he did find that compared with the gorgeous tomb door, this tomb chamber was indeed small and crude.
Li Chongrun carefully searched for a long time on the back wall of the tomb door opposite, and finally found a trace.
"Uncle, look, this place must have been sealed up later."
Although the brick wall was blackened by the fire, there was only a faint seam, which was naturally different from the placement of other bricks and was somewhat uneven.
Di Renjie called several government officials over, carefully removed a few bricks from the joint that Li Chongrun found, and found another hole. However, a hot breath hit his face, as if a fire was still raging inside.
.
Fortunately, after taking a breath for a while, the air in the back room was no longer so hot. Li Chongrun and Di Renjie lit up lanterns and prepared to go in to find out.
But as soon as Li Chongrun entered the back room, under the dim light of the lantern, a dark figure appeared in the corner of the back room. This frightened Li Chongrun, and he reflexively pulled out the mace on his back with his right hand.
come out.
"who is it!"
