Chapter 11 Hostility

Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and said, "Just because of this, do you doubt him?"

"Of course it's not the only one. For example, when he was eating hot pot with you, he hadn't eaten a few chopstick meat in total, right?"

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan nodded and said, "It's not our fault. He is slow to start his own actions. Who can he blame?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "This is actually the biggest flaw. Li Chunlai's identity is an honest farmer in Gulan County. He is not living a good life now. If you see the meat in the hot pot, you shouldn't compete with you. Instead, you are polite. Don't you find it strange?"

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were stunned. They did not expect that this seemingly normal situation was a flaw in Zhao Shucheng's eyes.

"You may think it's nothing, but if you change to someone else, you must think more, such as why Li Chunlai didn't eat, or is he so polite, like a farmer?"

"Of course, these can be explained, but there are more flaws in the subsequent stories. For example, if Li Chun said that Ma Dadan gave him a shoe, he no longer cared about Ma Dadan and his tomb robbing. But if it were normal people, they knew that a pair of shoes was valuable, and a shoe was a waste, right?"

"Also, what kind of thunder struck Ma Dabang and more than a dozen of them, which would be even more irritating. If such a thing really happened, it would have become big news long ago and reported in newspapers. Have we seen similar news? It's not surprising that people died these days, but if they were struck by lightning, there were still so many people, so it would have to be big news, right?"

When Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan heard this, they blushed because they didn't think there was anything strange at that time.

Da Jinya was also a little embarrassed and said, "Master Zhao, because of this, do you suspect that Li Chun is here?"

Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "It's natural that it's nothing just a suspicious point, but so many suspicious points are together, which is a very telling problem. He traveled thousands of miles to the capital, but he didn't think that he would bring all the things to sell. Instead, he asked someone to come to Gulan County, so he would have some plans."

"Master Zhao, since you know that Li Chunlai has a problem, why do you still have to follow us and not stop us?" Wang Kaixuan asked with some depression.

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "If you don't come this time, how do you know that it is not easy in the antique industry? As the saying goes, no matter how much others say, it is better to understand it yourself. Only after you have experienced it yourself can you be vigilant when you encounter similar situations in the future."

As he said that, he looked at the big gold teeth on the side and said, "Mr. Jin, you are considered an old man in the antique shop. I have heard of many tricks in the antique shop, but I have been in the capital. Is this time I am hit?"

"Oh, don't mention it. I'm a sparrow pecked at the eye. Looking at such an honest and honest person, who knows that he is full of bad water. It seems that the old saying is right, but you know the person but the face but not the heart."

Hu Bayi couldn't help but blush. He knew that the reason why the group was in such a situation was more because of himself. After all, there were so many people in the antique shop, and Li Chunlai only came to them because of his own.

"Okay, I'm not saying this to say who's fault this time, but since you are in the antique industry, you will be vigilant only after you have to go through some things. Moreover, this trip to Gulan County may not be rewarded."

After hearing this, Wang Kaixuan let go of his inner embarrassment and said, "Mr. Zhao, from what you mean, we have to make a fortune here? Then hurry up, what are you waiting for?"

Zhao Shucheng glanced at Fatty Wang and said, "Fatty, why are you anxious? I don't know if you are anxious and can't eat hot tofu? Even if we have to make a deal, we have to plan carefully. OK, stop talking nonsense, let's go to find the Fish Bone Temple first."

When the group heard Zhao Shucheng say this, they could only nod and follow Zhao Shucheng's footsteps and move towards the southwest.

Three or four hours later, everyone was really tired from walking, so they went to a farmhouse to ask for a bowl of water and rest for a while.

Da Jinya suddenly covered her stomach and said, "No, my masters, I want to make it easier. Uncle, where is your toilet?"

The old man pointed casually and said, "Just ahead..."

Before Da Jinya could finish speaking, she covered her stomach and slipped in.

Seeing Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi panting, the old man took out some steamed buns and dried radish from the house and guided him: "Youngsheng, there is nothing to be treated in the farmhouse, and there are still some steamed buns left. Don't dislike it."

"Uncle, see what you said. Thank you, uncle!"

Just as Wang Kaixuan was eating voraciously, Big Jinya suddenly shouted: "Masters, come quickly!"

"Man, I'm having a meal."

"Come here quickly, there is something new."

Zhao Shucheng's face turned green when he heard this. This big gold teeth were really good. He was hiding his words, which made people think a lot.

However, although the few people didn't know what the big gold teeth meant, they stood up and walked over. The fat man even walked over with steamed buns and dried radish.

Big Gold Teeth held her pants, pointed to the stone on the ground, and said, "Sir, look, what good thing is this?"

Zhao Shucheng covered his nose and said, "What kind of treasure has Mr. Jin discovered?"

Hu Bayi looked at the stones on the ground and said, "It seems to be written by the Zhou Dynasty, this is a good thing..."

"Yes, from the early Western Zhou Dynasty, but unfortunately the words were smoothed out."

"So, do you think there are tombs from the Western Zhou Dynasty nearby?"

Hu Bayi said: 'I found that your thinking is particularly clear in this regard.' But when Wang Kaixuan was still eating steamed buns and eating dried radish with relish, he couldn't help but ask: "Is it fragrant?"

"It's okay, it's just a bit eye-catching."

Zhao Shucheng was also very open-minded. There were people who ate with relish in such a place and did not dislike them at all.

The old man saw several people coming to the cottage and said, "Young people, there is a cottage! Come here for dinner."

When a few people returned to the yard, Da Jinya said, "Uncle, where did you get the stone slabs in the thatched cottage?"

The old man smiled and said, "Dogs, do you recognize the stepping stone slabs in my thatched cottage? A professor from Beijing came here before and told me that this stone slab was a good thing. But this thing is good, but it cannot be eaten as a meal. I will use it as a footing stone slab for the thatched cottage."

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, not knowing how to respond. After all, although this stone slab is good and has a certain historical value, it cannot be sold on the market. After all, most of the people who collect antiques want some historical and ornamental value, but only a few people collect the stone stele, and more of it is a museum.

Hu Bayi asked, "Master, do you know someone with you? Ma Dabang?"

"Of course I know, he and his friends came to Gulan County for a few years, and when they came, they put on a coffin shop. He also had a nickname called Living Hell. It is said that there was a coffin in his coffin shop. This horse boldly just pat the coffin board, and one person could die in the ten miles and eight villages. The more he was shooting, the farther the place where the dead people would be. The business of this coffin shop was not good, so he would take a coffin board."

Wang Kaixuan asked curiously: "Really? If it is so evil, why don't you smash his coffin shop quickly?"

"This is a legend. If there is no real evidence, how can I smash people? Besides, this horse is bold and powerful. It is a famous bully in Gulan County. No one in the village is afraid of him." The old man said while making up a frame.

After hearing this, everyone learned about Ma Dabang's situation and knew that Li Chunlai must be in the same group as Ma Dabang, so they decided not to stay in Gulan County for more.

"Young Master, where are you going after dinner?"

Hu Bayi said: ‘Let’s go southwest.’

The old man nodded and said, "Southwest, that's to go to the ferry. You should be careful on the way, but don't go deep into the mysteries."

"Mysterious cave, what kind of mysterious cave?"

When the old man heard Fatty Wang's words, he looked at them in surprise and said, "Don't you know the mystery cave? The Fish Bone Temple is just that area, don't go. On the surface, it looks like an ordinary mountain, but if you are not careful, you will fall into the hole of the earthen shell. As long as you fall in, you won't even think about getting out."

"We locals call that place called Longling Mysterious Cave, which is very evil. You can hit ghosts and walls in broad daylight, and there are so many dirty things. Many people died inside."

"Last month, an exploration team said they wanted to dig some oil mines. After entering, they never came out. None of them came out."

In the mystery cave of Longling, everyone can write this name in their letter. Of course, Hu Bayi and others did not believe in the hollow hole, but instead thought that this was the thief hole left by Tushizi.

After saying goodbye to the old man, the group continued to move towards the southwest. The terrain of the Loess Plateau was uneven, which could be regarded as crossing mountains and ridges. Although the group was walking on the trail, they could barely see that it was a road. If they didn't look carefully, they thought they were walking in the wilderness, which was particularly laborious.

Da Jinya suddenly panted and said, "Oh, look, is it the Fish Bone Temple opposite?"

"Where?" Wang Kaixuan looked around, saw a small earthen house in the distance, and said, "Is this the Fish Bone Temple?"

Hu Bayi looked at the Fish Bone Temple, then looked at the surrounding mountains and terrain, and said, "This should be the Fish Bone Temple, but if anyone said it was a Feng Shui treasure land, I would burn half of my sixteen-character Yin and Yang secret technique when I went back."

Wang Kaixuan said, "What's wrong here? I think it's pretty good. Standing on a high place and the wind is quite comfortable. Is there a lack of water? If you say that there is a big river and the water is buzzing, wouldn't this be a Feng Shui treasure land?"

"Even if the river is filled with water, it is not a Feng Shui treasure land. Building temples and temples is not as good as building houses and tombs, which is very particular. Building temples must be Zhao Fu's side, so the place where temples are built must be the main hall of Xingfeng and famous mountains. As the saying goes, there is no hidden secret in the valley, and it cannot be penetrated by the heart and cannot be seen. Look at this Fish Bone Temple..."

As he said that, Hu Bayi pointed to the place where the Fish Bone Temple was located and said, "Have you seen a temple built in a ravine? As the saying goes, if people fight for a breath, Buddhas fight for a stick of incense, which god will live in a ravine? Even if it is a land temple, there is no need to be built in this deep ravine?"

Wang Kaixuan immediately became interested and said, "Old Hu, we have nothing to do anyway, otherwise let's go and have a look?"

"What do you think? This horse boldly might catch up at any time. Let's leave quickly."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Old Hu, you said this a little early, and your family's sixteen-character Yin-Yang secret technique is inherited from your family. Are you sure you are going to burn it?"

Hu Bayi frowned and looked at Zhao Shucheng and said, "Master Zhao, what do you mean?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "It is indeed inappropriate to be located here, but it may not be necessary to say that it is not a Feng Shui treasure land."

Hu Bayi was stunned when he heard this. After looking carefully, he still felt that this place didn't look like a Feng Shui treasure land. He said, "Master Zhao, you won't joke about me, are you? Am I really wrong?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Everyone said that he doesn't know the true face of Mount Lu, because he is in this mountain. The same is true for this Feng Shui. Just looking at one place can only see one-sided points. Only by comprehensive observation can we give the final conclusion. As the saying goes, looking at mountains are mountains, looking at water is water, looking at mountains are not mountains, looking at water is not water, looking at mountains or mountains, looking at water is still water."

When Zhao Shucheng saw that Hu Bayi had not found anything, he said, "I didn't stand high enough, so I naturally couldn't see clearly. Only by reaching the Fish Bone Temple or higher can we see clearly what the details are. Let's go and take a look."

When he arrived at a higher mountain nearby and looked at the direction of the Fishbone Temple again, Hu Bayi suddenly became serious and said, "This temple builder is a master."

"Yes, it seems to be fragmented, there is no barrier, and it cannot be formed. However, there are clouds and colorful hidden above the top, and there is a deep and peaceful state of rest. It is actually a rare Feng Shui treasure land in the world."

Hu Bayi also nodded and said, "Yes, the sixteen-character secret technique of Yin and Yang said that there are hundreds of mountains and rivers, and countless dragon tower treasure halls are gone. Because this Longling is located on the Loess Plateau, it has become unbearable under the erosion of thousands of years of wind and rain. Feng Shui has changed drastically. But if you stand at a high place, it is as Zhao said, it is an inconspicuous Feng Shui treasure land."

"What are you waiting for? Let's go and have a look. Maybe there are treasures left in this ancient tomb."

As he said that, Wang Kai turned his body and was about to run towards the Fishbone Temple, but before he could run a few steps, he suddenly fell into a trap.

Zhao Shucheng knew that the fat man was stepping on the thief hole, so he couldn't help but shake his head. The fat man didn't know whether he should say he was lucky or not.

Seeing this, Hu Bayi hurried over and pulled the fat man, saying, "Master Zhao, Master Jin, help me, pull the fat man up."
