Chapter 455 Returning to Beijing
Seeing the "old acquaintance" who suddenly appeared before them, Suning, Hu Bayi, and Wang Kaixuan all began to tremble all over. Even Yingzi, who was unaware of the situation, felt scared.

"Brother Su, what is this?"

"Little girl, don't speak so harshly. I am your ancestor!" Before Suning could answer, the old lady looked at Yingzi angrily, and her voice was as unpleasant as sawing wood.

"Ah~~~~~" Yingzi was trembling with fear.

"Senior, we have no grudges in the past or hatred in the present. What are you going to do?" Suning could only bite the bullet and smile bitterly.

"Hmph! You killed so many of my descendants, and you still think you have no grudge against me?" The old lady looked at Su Ning angrily, wishing she could tear the shameless man in front of her to pieces immediately.

"Senior, I don't understand what you are saying."

"Hmph! It seems that you are a master at pretending to be confused." The old lady looked at Su Ning sarcastically.

At this time, Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan and the other two looked at Su Ning in surprise. They all wanted to know what kind of grudge Su Ning had with the old lady. However, when Hu Bayi thought of the monsters that had all turned to ashes, he still had some guesses in his mind.

"Senior, how can we reconcile? You have to find a way out, right?"

"Humph! I know you're not afraid of me at all." The old lady stared at Su Ning with her scarlet eyes, gritting her teeth as she spoke, "But if I'm determined to die with you, you can only die with me."

"Haha, senior, you have such a high level of cultivation, it's not worth it for you to get angry with a mere mortal like me!" When Su Ning heard that things were getting worse, he immediately looked at the old lady with a forced smile on his face.

"Well, I know you got a mask. As long as you give it to me, the grudge between us will be resolved." The old lady quickly put forward her conditions.

"Ah? Mask?" The four of them were surprised at this time.

"What? You don't want to give up?"

"No! I'll give it to you now."

Suning took off the backpack behind him, reached into his backpack, took out the mask from the space world, and placed it on the ground in front of the old lady. Suning didn't dare to walk forward directly.

"Hehe! You do have a secret." The old lady had been paying attention to Suning's movements and easily noticed that the backpack was just a cover for Suning.

"Huh?" Suning also knew that he couldn't hide anything from the big boss in front of him.

"This mask is nice. I'll give it to you!" The old lady looked at the mask on the ground, then said meaningfully to the four people.

As soon as the old lady finished speaking, she turned into a puff of white smoke and disappeared again. She disappeared even more casually and freely than the last time, and seemed much more impressive.

Looking at the unknown creature that appeared and disappeared inexplicably, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Kaixuan reacted immediately and hurriedly ran forward to pick up the black mask on the ground.

Just when the other three thought Wang Kaixuan was going to take it for himself, Wang Kaixuan actually handed it to Su Ning himself, "Su Ning, your mask."

Suning was also a little surprised, "Thank you!"

Of course Wang Kaixuan wanted to take the mask for himself, but after seeing what happened just now, he realized that not everyone could own this mask, and this mask would be a huge trouble.

Now Suning is convinced that he has gotten into big trouble. The old lady's sudden appearance this time is just to confirm his secret, and she will definitely continue to trouble him in the future.

"Brother Su, what should we do next?" Yingzi looked at Suning with confusion.

"The old lady has left. Once she's out, we can let the villagers dig for supplies."

"Ah? What if there's a coffin lid blocking the way?"

"It's okay! I'll move it away." After saying that, Suning walked forward and moved the heavy coffin lid away.

After everyone went out, they found that it was already bright outside. The six female hunters who stayed behind saw the four people return safely and ran up in surprise.

"Comrade Su, what's going on down there?" A middle-aged female hunter looked at Su Ning nervously.

"The Kwantung Army fortress has been found."

"Great! Let's go inform the branch secretary and the others now."

"Well, let's go!"

Yingzi and the female hunters went downstairs to write a letter, tied it to a hunting dog, and then watched the hunting dog go to deliver the letter. Only then did everyone come back to Suning and the other two.

"Suning, what should we do next?" Hu Bayi suddenly looked at Suning and asked.

"We'll help Yingzi and the others carry supplies for the next few days. Once the main force arrives, we'll leave here and return to the capital."

"Ah? Brother Su, are you leaving now?" Yingzi looked at Su Ning reluctantly.

"Haha, yes! We have already got what we wanted, so of course there is no need to stay here any longer."

Suning and his three companions were really exhausted after this expedition, so they all ran to the tent to rest. The next day, when everyone was preparing to go downstairs to move supplies, they unexpectedly found that the branch secretary appeared in front of them with a large group of villagers.

"Secretary, how come you came so quickly?" Suning and others looked at the secretary in surprise.

"Haha, after you left, the villagers who went to work in the archaeological team asked for leave and came back. After hearing about your actions, they immediately became worried and followed you here." The branch secretary explained to everyone with a smile.

"Haha, that's great. From now on, the Kwantung Army Fortress will be handed over to you."

"it is good!"

Su Ning and Hu Bayi immediately took the secretary and his men to familiarize themselves with various places, and then said goodbye to the secretary, "Secretary, our mission is complete. We will return to the capital now."

"Ah? So hasty?"

"Haha, there's nothing we can do if we stay here. There are other important things to do in the capital."

"Okay! You must come to our Ganggangyingzi again when you have time in the future!" The branch secretary said politely to Su Ning, Hu Bayi and the others.

"Haha, definitely."

At this time, Yingzi brought an old man in his fifties to the front of the crowd, and then said to Su Ning shyly, "Brother Su, my father agreed to let me go to the capital with you."

"Ah? This is the Second Master, right?"

"Haha, it's me! I'm Yingzi's father. From now on, I'll trouble you, Comrade Su, to take good care of Yingzi."

"Uncle Er, don't worry! I will definitely treat Yingzi as my own sister." Suning patted his chest in surprise and promised.

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan both secretly curled their lips. It was easy to detect that Su Ning had impure motives towards Yingzi, but they did not say anything to stop him.

Thinking about how hard everyone had worked these days, Suning took out a stack of money he had prepared long ago and gave each of the female hunters one thousand yuan. In the end, Yingzi's share was given to the second uncle.

"Everyone has worked hard during this period. Consider this money as your reward!" "Comrade Su, how can this be possible?" The branch secretary and the others said a little embarrassedly, but they couldn't hide the smiles on their faces. "We agreed at the beginning that if we found the Kwantung Army fortress, we wouldn't accept your reward."

"Haha, we've all been surviving these past few days, so this little money really doesn't mean anything."

After bidding farewell to the villagers of Ganggangyingzi, Suning, Hu Bayi and four others, along with two other villagers who were waiting to return to get their horses, left the Wild Man Valley together and headed back to the capital.

Suning, Hu Bayi, and Wang Kaixuan boarded the train back to Beijing again. Suddenly, they felt as if they were in another world, while Yingzi next to them was looking around with curiosity.

"Lao Hu, Fatty, I'll give you your share when we get back to the capital."

"Haha, we're not in a hurry." Wang Kaixuan said with a hypocritical smile.

"Well, last time you said you wanted to work for me. Do you still have this idea now?" Su Ning looked at Wang Kaixuan meaningfully.

"Huh?" Before Wang Kaixuan answered, he turned around and looked at his good friend Hu Bayi. "No! I still have some tapes. I'll sell them first and then we can talk about other things."

"Well, that's fine." Suning nodded without comment.

Soon the train arrived at Beijing Railway Station. After getting off the train, the four went straight to Suning's "Gu Boxuan" in Panjiayuan. As soon as Suning opened the door, he saw the note on the door. He picked it up and almost laughed. It seemed that Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan could not escape from his control.

After collecting the note Hao Aiguo had left for him, Su Ning took out four thousand yuan and handed it to Hu Bayi. "I didn't expect it to be so dangerous this time, so I'll give you an extra two thousand yuan."

"Ah? Thank you, Boss Su." Wang Kaixuan snatched the four thousand yuan in surprise and started counting it directly.

"Well, we'll meet again someday."

"See you again." Hu Bayi suddenly felt relieved. The pressure from Suning was too strong. "Yingzi, just work hard here! Your brother Kaixuan and I will come to visit you when we have time."

"Okay! Brother Hu, Brother Kaixuan, I'll be waiting for you." Yingzi said reluctantly.

After Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan left, Su Ning arranged a room for Yingzi and said, "Yingzi, you can live here from now on!"

"Ah? Brother Su, the conditions here are so good."

"Haha, I might be going to Xinjiang in a few days. Do you want to go with me?"

"Ah? Xinjiang?"

"Yes! There's an archaeological team going to Xinjiang. I'll go with them to see it. Do you want to come with me?"

"Okay! I'll go with you."

Suning locked the store door again, and then took Yingzi, who had changed into clean clothes, to Professor Chen. He discussed the departure time with Professor Chen, and then left Professor Chen again.

That night, Suning took Yingzi to Quanjude for dinner, while Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi ran directly to Da Jin Ya and took out the two moth jade pendants.

"You two, although this thing is worth some money, its quality is very ordinary. Don't hold too high hopes." Big Gold Teeth immediately revealed the face of a profiteer.

"Da Jin Ya, stop talking nonsense and tell me how much it is worth?" Wang Kaixuan said to Da Jin Ya anxiously.

"I can't say for sure. If you trust me, just leave it with me and I'll keep whatever it sells for."

"This..." Wang Kaixuan looked at Hu Bayi next to him.

"Sure! I'll leave it here with you!" Hu Bayi nodded with a smile.

"Haha, brother Bayi, you are still straightforward." Da Jin Ya put away the two moth jade pendants in surprise.

"Boss Jin, should we talk about the tomb-touching talisman?"

"What? What's wrong with the tomb-grabbing talisman?" Da Jin Ya pretended to be confused and looked at Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan.

"Bang!" Wang Kaixuan angrily slammed the table, then yelled at the top of his lungs, "Big Gold Tooth, you're so unkind! You actually gave us two fake tomb-robbing talismans! I think you're deliberately trying to kill us both."

"Eh? Brother Kaixuan, aren't your words a bit harsh?" Big Gold Teeth wasn't intimidated by Wang Kaixuan at all. Instead, he looked at Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan with a look of grievance, "Who told you these two tomb-grabbing talismans are fake?"

"We heard it from Suning. He said the real tomb-touching talisman is made of gold, jade and pangolin claws."

"Hey! Suning and I are mortal enemies, how can you believe what he says?" After knowing the information he wanted to know, Da Jin Ya had a clear idea in his mind, and then he began his deception, "Gold-touching talismans can also be divided into high-end and low-end. The one Su Ning is talking about is the high-end stuff. Anyway, I, Da Jin Ya, have never seen it, but I can't say that my gold-touching talisman is fake!"

"Boss Jin, do you think we are all fools?" Hu Bayi looked at Da Jin Ya with a sneer.

"Huh? I know it's my fault for bringing out a low-grade tomb-grabbing talisman." Big Gold Teeth knew his little trick, so he gritted his teeth and said it was a low-grade tomb-grabbing talisman. Then he told me his compensation plan, "I'll take the two jade pendants you brought. Next, I'll introduce you to a great place."

"Hmph! Suning said these two jade pendants can be sold for 60,000 yuan." Fatty Wang looked at Big Gold Teeth with disdain.

"Oh! My Fatty! That depends on finding the right buyer!" Big Gold Tooth hated Suning so much that he raised the price to the sky.

"Boss Jin, you said you would introduce us two brothers to a great place?" Hu Bayi was more concerned about Da Jin Ya's other compensation.

"Haha, you guys did this, right?" Big Gold Teeth didn't answer directly, but took out a recent newspaper.

Hu Bayi took the newspaper with a puzzled look on his face and immediately saw the headline news on the front page. He then looked at Wang Kaixuan beside him with admiration and said, "Fatty, the two branch secretaries are really smart and directly handed over the Kwantung Army fortress."

"Gentlemen, you two are not going to bring back only these two jade pendants this time, are you?"

"There is also a dark mask." Wang Kaixuan said quickly.

"What? Take it out quickly!" Big Gold Teeth immediately became excited.

"Huh? It was taken away by Suning."

"Hey! This Suning is so cunning that he actually took away the most valuable things." Big Gold Tooth slapped his thigh in pain.

At this time, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were just watching Da Jin Ya's performance quietly, but they thought in their hearts that Suning deserved to have a mask. When he looked up and saw Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan's indifferent expressions, Da Jin Ya stopped his embarrassing performance.

"There's an archaeological team heading to the Western Regions recently. It's perfect for you to go and see the world. I'm going to introduce you to it."

"What can we do there?" Hu Bayi looked at Da Jin Ya in confusion.

"Be their leader! Mr. Hu, you are a retired soldier, and Mr. Fatty has such strong fighting power. They really need talents like you."

"Well, thank you, Boss Jin."

"Haha, Mr. Hu, you're welcome. If there are any good things like Niuxin Mountain in the future, remember to inform me." When Da Jin Ya saw that Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan agreed, the entanglement between the three was resolved.
