Chapter 33: One Hundred Thousand Fires

Yang Tiancong saw that we were all confused and looked confused, and said softly: "This treasure pearl is called 'Tiantong Pearl'. It is a rare pearl given to Qian Chu, the king of Wuyue Kingdom when he met the Qian family of the Wuyue Kingdom in 969 AD. The king of Wuyue Kingdom Qian Chu rewarded the treasure pearl to his favorite concubine Huang. Huang later rewarded the treasure pearl to her younger brother in her parents' family. In the third year of Taiping Xingguo of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty (978), Qian Chu led the Wuyue Kingdom to the Song Dynasty, ending the split between the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. During this period, he passed several times.

The incident changed and the wars, the Tiantong Bead disappeared... It was not until 1939 that the Tiantong Bead surfaced. A returning overseas Chinese in Shanghai accidentally bought the pearl. However, at that time, the Japanese army invaded China and the national crisis was in danger. The overseas Chinese donated the pearl to the "Shanghai Patriot Overseas Chinese Federation" to prepare for a charity sale to raise funds and donate to the Chinese team. At this time, Shanghai fell and the Japanese army entered Shanghai. The Tiantong Bead stored in the Shanghai Museum at that time disappeared after the second year of the fall of Shanghai. It was confirmed that the Japanese army robbed the Shanghai Museum..."

What everyone was confused about was the key to how he learned so many inside information about this orb?

I already knew something and asked, "So, Mr. Yang, you have been tracking this pearl for many years, right? And you deliberately committed a crime and were arrested in this prison. The real purpose is probably this Tiantong Bead, right? Moreover, you also know that a group of cultural relics that the Japanese army had not had time to transport back to China were hidden near this prison!"

After hearing what I said, Ouyang Linna immediately became alert.

Yang Tiancong smiled softly and stared at me and nodded constantly. It was only at this moment that I truly realized that this person was not simple. He only heard him say: "More than a thousand years ago, Qian Chu, the king of the Wuyue Dynasty in Jiangnan, rewarded this Tiantongzhu to his favorite Concubine Huang, and Concubine Huang finally rewarded this Baozhu to her mother's family. You may not know that Concubine Huang's mother's family's surname is Yang, and I am the descendant of Concubine Huang's mother's family! This Tiantongzhu was originally my family's belonging! Today, I just came to get my house back

What! My Yang family has been studying the history and origins of this Tiantong Bead for many years. We have not let go of any clues. I also have a little understanding of Xuanmen. Since something happened in Nanhui Farm Prison, I have verified in many aspects that there must be those cultural relics that the Japanese army had not been transferred back to China. However, I have insufficient eyesight and have been unable to find the entrance and location of the crypt. Fortunately, Mr. Fang, you have the power of your eyes! Mr. Fang, please accept me again!" After he said that, he bowed to me again!

I quickly helped him up and whispered, "I dare not take it! Mr. Yang, as you said, this pearl is your property, but this may have to be approved by Superintendent Ouyang and others? I also heard that you are striving for this Tiantong Bead, maybe it is not because it is valuable, but for some other reasons?"

As soon as I finished speaking, Ouyang Linna said seriously: "Mr. Yang, please put this pearl back into the pile of wooden boxes, or hand it over to our police! You cannot touch it until our police have obtained any effective evidence about the origin of this pearl and proved the genealogy of your family. Besides, even if it is your treasure, think about it carefully. It has long been separated from your family and fallen into the hands of outsiders in history. It has been thousands of years. Even if you can prove that it is your family's thing, it will be handed over to the country! This belongs to the cultural relics unearthed from the country!"

"Old Yang, don't forget that you are still a prisoner now! The consequences of your continued like this are afraid that it will be even more unfavorable to your future!" Zhan Fei added.

Yang Tiancong looked up at the sky and chuckled: "I, Yang Tiancong, never lie all my life! I said that this pearl was originally my family's property. Whether you believe it or not, since I sacrificed my life to find it, I will not let him fall into the hands of outsiders again. I naturally know the rules of your police, but I am sorry, even if you forcefully ask for this Tiantong Bead, I will not agree, even if both the human beads are destroyed!" He held the pearl in his right hand and looked around, as if the policeman approached another step, and he was about to smash the pearl on the stone slab!

Ouyang Linna and others looked at each other in a flash, but were helpless. She looked at me, as if she asked me to teach me again. I shook my head gently, looking at Yang Tiancong's words and momentum, I knew that he did not tell lies, and there must be more wonderful things in this Tiantong bead... Immediately, I stared at Ouyang Linna and said, "Let's not argue here first, transport these wooden boxes of cultural relics first, and then burn these corpses before talking-"

But the three prisoners behind him shouted: "Grandma! Lao Yang, can you think of this trick? I picked up a gold brick and said it was the property of my ancestors. Is this gold brick my own?" The three prisoners dropped their shovels and hoes, and all bent down to pick up the gold bricks in the stone pit.

I suddenly came to my senses, hugged a prisoner closest to me, and cursed fiercely: "At this moment, are you still alive?!"

Maybe we thought these once evil prisoners too noble in advance, so we asked three of them to come down with us to cooperate with our investigation. But in the face of such dazzling gold and treasures, human nature was fully revealed. Yang Tiancong took the lead in deciding that the priceless pearl was his family's property. How could these three prisoners not be jealous of fighting? At this moment, how could they be thinking about their identity as prisoners? They had already looked at the police in front of them for nothing...

Before the police could react, the other two prisoners had already bent down. One of them picked up a large piece of gold brick. The size of this gold brick was so large that it was beyond my knowledge. With the proportion of gold, such a large gold brick weighs several pounds! There should not be such a large gold brick in all dynasties in China. It could only come from the remote country of Wu and Yue in Jiangnan, more than a thousand years ago or the barbarian country of overseas exchanges with it. The other prisoner had a big appetite and picked up two gold bricks in each hand, which was extremely heavy.

"Liu Shougen, Huang Deyao! Put down the gold immediately!" Zhan Fei and two other policemen had already taken out their pistols, "I count to three. If you don't put down the gold, you will commit the crime of robbing and stealing major national property! You are prisoners, so... whether your head should be kept is only in your thoughts!"

At that time, the noise we were in this crypt had already reached the ground, and a large number of prisoners were even more noisy. If there were no gunfire from the armed police soldiers who had guns and fired guns, these prisoners would have poured down like a flood.

"Why didn't he put the pearl in Old Yang's hand back?! You police officers can't be so partial!" The two prisoners were very reasonable.

"Different things are treated differently! But I want to order you to put down the gold first!" Ouyang Linna, who had not spoken for a long time, snatched the gun from Zhan Fei's hand, and as soon as she loaded it, she aimed at Huang Deyao's head with a "whirlwind"!

Liu Shougen and Huang Deyao were shocked by this, how could they dare not to obey? But just when Huang Deyao, who was holding four gold bricks in both hands, was about to put the gold bricks back to their original position, plus the four heavy gold bricks, the stone pit area where he was standing suddenly collapsed, and the soil here was already very soft!

Huang Deyao and his men and bricks fell to the golden bed!

This came to everyone's surprise, and for them, they were not aware of the potential crisis... In the flash of lightning, I reacted, stretched out my hand to hold Huang Deyao, but it was too late, and his center of gravity fell completely. I grabbed a corner of his clothes, but I could not turn the situation around at all, otherwise I would have been taken down by him-

Huang Deyao fell on this little Japanese corpse without bias, and a "stacked corpse" came! Almost mouth-to-mouth!

I was stunned! Suddenly, I turned my head, stared at Ouyang Linna and her group, and shouted: "It's too late, let's go up!"

"These cultural relics and gold..." Ouyang Linna looked at me, saw my expression, and looked around again. Her subtext should be: Isn't this good?

Suddenly, Huang Deyao, who was lying on the corpse, screamed, and it slashed through the quietness of the night sky, instantly making everyone feel creepy and their scalp numb.
