A comprehensive overview of tombs: starting with the Yellow Weasel's Tomb

Bai Jing remained silent, and Fatty Wang continued, "Not only does this guy speak in a sarcastic and ambiguous way, but he's just a forest ranger, and he talks in such a mysterious way."

At this point, Fatty Wang paused, as if he had thought of something, and continued, "And that Huamei, she's just like him."

Bai Jing then said, "After I went in, I looked at the things in the room and noticed a bloodstained axe. I don't know what kind of blood it is, but I'm sure that old man is definitely not a good person."

Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang had great faith in Bai Jing's judgment.

Based on our interactions over the past six months, Bai Jing's judgments have always been well-founded, and they have often proven to be correct.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Jing saw that Fatty Wang was eating candy while taking a dump.

This is the fruit candy that Bai Jing traded for the weasel he caught yesterday.

Upon seeing this, Hu Bayi said with some disgust, "You're eating while you're pooping, isn't that disgusting?"

At this moment, Fatty Wang suddenly had a bright idea and looked at Hu Bayi and Bai Jing, asking, "Do you think this guy might be some kind of enemy agent?"

Bai Jing paused for a moment, then said, "It shouldn't be. Why would enemy agents hide in a place like this? What would they want to sabotage here?"

After listening to Bai Jing's words, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang thought about it and both felt that what Bai Jing said made sense.

But if they weren't enemy agents, then who could they be?

Seeing Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang deep in thought, Bai Jing decided to guide them a little.

Immediately, Bai Jing said, "It's unlikely to be enemy agents, but there is a much greater possibility."

Upon hearing Bai Jing's words, Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi immediately looked at Bai Jing, wanting to hear his analysis.

"Do you remember the story I told you before about my grandfather's work in suppressing bandits in Northeast China?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang, though puzzled, both nodded, as Bai Jing had already mentioned this matter.

Immediately, Bai Jing continued, "We all know that someone got there first at the Huang Xiangu Temple we visited before. If you don't know anything about it, you won't be able to figure out the truth."

Upon hearing this, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang both nodded, immediately deciding to discuss it further when they returned, and then probed further.

Chapter 17 Conflict

Inside the room, Yanzi and Huamei were drinking hot water.

Sun Qiaoshan then took out a map, spread it on the table, and began to look at it.

When Bai Jing and the other two returned to the house, the others only glanced at them but did not say anything.

Bai Jing glanced at the situation and said, "It's already completely light out, why don't we go back?"

Hua Mei glanced at Sun Qiaoshan, then gestured something, and Sun Qiaoshan nodded almost imperceptibly.

Immediately, the thrush said, "Why don't you stay and have breakfast before you leave? I'm cooking porridge right now."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing and the others exchanged glances, thought for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.

Bai Jing immediately said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

Hua Mei replied indifferently, "It's nothing."

After saying that, he took the pot, dug a full pot of snow from the yard, and returned to the house.

And Yanzi quickly went to help.

Bai Jing and the other two simply drank water and warmed themselves around the stove.

Not long after, the porridge was cooked.

Yanzi patted Bai Jing and Hu Bayi: "Dinner's ready!"

Bai Jing and the others hadn't slept all night and were dozing off when Yanzi patted them, bringing them back to their senses and allowing them to take the bowls and chopsticks.

Seeing this, the fat man quickly called out, "Yanzi, give me a bowl too."

Upon hearing this, Yanzi said without even looking up, "Go and serve yourself."

The fat man had made himself uncomfortable, and he knew it was all for nothing.

Anyone with eyes could see that Yanzi had feelings for Hu Bayi, but her feelings for Bai Jing were purely out of respect.

After all, since Bai Jing came to Ganggangyingzi, he has been good at everything he does, which naturally makes him more respected.

It can be said that there were quite a few educated youths in Ganggangyingzi, but Bai Jing, who was good at everything, was a unique individual.

Fatty, on the other hand, is someone who's good for nothing but eating everything.

Naturally, the fat man became somewhat disliked.

When the fat man heard Yanzi's words, he pursed his lips and muttered, "Serve it yourself if you want, who cares?"

That's what he said, but anyone with eyes could see the sourness in the fat man's words.

After saying that, the fat man stood up, walked to the stove, picked up a spoon, and ladled himself another bowl of porridge.

After drinking a bowl of porridge, Bai Jing couldn't help but praise it, saying that the porridge was indeed very well cooked.

Meanwhile, the fat man on the other side, after taking his bowl of porridge, noticed the bloodstained axe hanging on the wall.

Immediately, the fat man put the bowl he was holding on the table, then walked to the wall and subconsciously tried to touch the axe.

However, the next moment, he was subdued by Sun Qiaoshan in one move.

Seeing this, Bai Jing helplessly put down his bowl and looked at Sun Qiaoshan, asking, "Grandpa, what are you doing?"

Yanzi hurriedly and anxiously shouted, "Uncle Qiaoshan, these educated youths in the village are all treasures, you can't hurt them."

Hu Bayi quickly put down his bowl and walked over, saying, "Yes, old man, let's talk this out. Please don't resort to violence."

Upon hearing this, Sun Qiaoshan glanced at Bai Jing and the others indifferently.

He said, "If you don't take action, you won't know what the rules are."

Just as Sun Qiaoshan was about to exert more force, and the fat man was yelling in pain.

Bai Jing quietly approached Sun Qiaoshan and the fat man, and then, seemingly weakly, touched Sun Qiaoshan's arm.

For some reason, after being touched on the arm, Sun Qiaoshan immediately let go of Fatty Wang.

The next moment, Bai Jing helped Wang Pangzi up and smiled at Sun Qiaoshan, saying, "Senior, I'm sorry, my friend was impolite. I apologize on his behalf."

Sun Qiaoshan felt the force coming from his arm and looked intently at Bai Jing.

"The fist's power appears gentle, but it is actually incredibly strong. Moreover, the stances are small yet exquisite, making it a very skillful fist technique. It seems to be Tai Chi, but I wonder which school it belongs to?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing clasped his hands together and looked at Sun Qiaoshan opposite him, saying, "This is Wu-style Tai Chi."

Upon hearing this, Sun Qiaoshan pondered for a moment, then looked at Bai Jing and asked, "Wu-style Tai Chi? Who is Wu Zhanbei to you?"

Bai Jing was somewhat surprised to hear this, but still replied, "Wu Zhanbei is my martial arts master. I have been learning martial arts from Master Wu for ten years."

Upon hearing this, Sun Qiaoshan nodded, then picked up his pipe, took a puff, but remained silent.

This made Bai Jing a little puzzled. What did it mean to only say half of what you meant?

Immediately, Bai Jing asked, "Grandpa, do you know Master Wu?"

Sun Qiaoshan nodded, then shook his head and said, "I know him. I do know the head of the Wu-style Tai Chi school."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing nodded, but he didn't seem surprised.

Wu Zhanbei is quite famous. His boxing style, which combines both softness and strength, is arguably the most famous among all the major schools of Tai Chi today.

When Bai Jing was about to become Wu Zhanbei's apprentice, Wu Zhanbei could see that although Bai Jing had a good talent for learning boxing, it was clear that Bai Jing was not learning it to enter the profession.

Therefore, Master Wu Zhanbei only had Bai Jing learn boxing techniques on a daily basis, but did not actually take him under his wing.

Moreover, in addition to Tai Chi, Bai Jing also had some knowledge of Bajiquan, Baguazhang, and various other martial arts.

Sun Qiaoshan then glanced at Bai Jing's posture and said expressionlessly, "Your fist technique is quite good."

Bai Jing didn't seem to have any doubts upon hearing this, but he still humbly replied, "It's nothing. I've only learned the basics; it's nothing compared to the old man's boxing skills."

Bai Jing had long known that Sun Qiaoshan was quite strong, but from the moment they exchanged blows, he realized that he had underestimated Sun Qiaoshan.

Bai Jing could tell from the moment he entered the room.

Sun Qiaoshan's lower body was as stable as Mount Tai, and the calluses on his hands were very thick. It was clear at a glance that Sun Qiaoshan's kung fu was quite good.

Sun Qiaoshan gave Bai Jing a deep look, but said nothing. He sat back down and continued studying his map.

The fat man looked at Sun Qiaoshan with some resentment, then suddenly noticed a dark shadow, followed by a second dark shadow, and then a third dark shadow flashed by.

Bai Jing reacted quickly and immediately realized that it was the weasel they had caught earlier that was trying to escape.

He immediately shouted, "The weasel is trying to run away, chase after it!"

Immediately afterwards, Bai Jing was the first to rush out.

He picked up a few pebbles at random, and then with two 'swish' sounds, he saw two weasels running behind him in the distance being hit and stopped in place. Then he heard Bai Jing shout, "Yanzi, catch these two beasts first, don't let them get away again."

Chapter 18 Catching the Weasel

Then, Bai Jing shouted to Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang, who had already chased after them, "Old Hu, Fatty, you two come with me to chase the last one. Don't let them get away."

Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi quickly followed.

Yanzi, holding the leather dumpling, put away the two weasels that Bai Jing had knocked unconscious with stones.
