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

However, the techniques of the Northern School are too physically demanding, and most water demons can only use them three times at most.

But Bai Jing thought it was a very useful ability. Each time, he could dash hundreds of meters underwater at an extremely fast speed, which was very useful for escaping.

The Southern School, on the other hand, raises black ghosts and uses them to lure people. As long as there is enough wine, they can keep going day and night.

The so-called "black ghost" is actually a cormorant, which is raised using secret methods. It can understand its owner's thoughts and greatly increase its swimming speed when diving underwater.

To be honest, Bai Jing was incredibly envious when he learned about the capabilities of these three companies.

However, according to the head of the Yi family, those who are not of the three families' bloodline cannot learn these techniques even if they are taught to others.

Their family used to have many sons-in-law who moved in with their wives' families. At the time, the family had considered handing them over to them, but none of them could learn the skills. Over time, they gave up on the idea.

Therefore, the head of the Yi family had no intention of keeping anything secret. Seeing that Bai Jing was interested, he directly gifted Bai Jing a booklet on the practice of the Six Arts of the Water Demon.

He even joked that if Bai Jing could master the technique, he could arrange for Bai Jing to choose any woman from the Yi family as his wife, or even any of the three Shui Xiao families.

Bai Qi took a look and thought, "If I can really master it, that would be wonderful. The Yi family members are truly handsome men and beautiful women."

So, Bai Jing jokingly made a deal with the head of the Yi family that if he really mastered the skill, he would come to the Yi family to choose a wife.

Chapter 118 Victory Reunion

Bai Jing returned to the capital in early autumn.

After submitting a written report on the archaeological activity to his superiors, Bai Jing began his vacation.

Since he was on vacation, he naturally went home first.

He was away for three months without sending a single message home, so naturally he went home first to apologize and beg for his parents' forgiveness.

When he got home, he found out that his older brother, Bai Qi, had been discharged from the army.

Given Bai Qi's personality, he should have served in the military for life. He has been in the army for ten years and has just become a section chief (deputy battalion commander) in the regiment. It is said that he may be transferred to the battalion as battalion commander in two years at most. Under such circumstances, why did he suddenly retire?

For a moment, Bai Jing was also confused about what was going on.

It turned out that Bai Qi's unit had gone to the front line, and the section chiefs were assigned to various companies to stay there.

As a result, after a battle, the company that went to the White Flag failed to carefully check the prisoners' bodies and was attacked by an enemy prisoner who had hidden a weapon. The company commander, enraged, went on a killing spree and shot all the prisoners.

Instead of dissuading them, Bai Qi picked up a gun and gave the prisoner two magazines.

After that, I was scheduled to recover ahead of schedule.

After hearing this story, Bai Jing felt increasingly familiar with the plot, and immediately asked the company commander what his name was, and coincidentally...

The company commander's name was Hu Bayi.

At this moment, Bai Jing couldn't help but sigh at how damn small the world was.

With so many troops, how did my elder brother Bai Qi manage to get together with that guy Hu Bayi?

Immediately, Bai Jing pulled Bai Qi to go eat, hoping to comfort Bai Qi's wounded heart.

Bai Qi was initially reluctant to go, saying that after so many years in the army, he wanted to spend more time with his family and also missed his son, wanting to build a closer relationship with him, since his son didn't call him "Dad."

It's worth mentioning that Baiqi is now married to Jianguo. They got together before he joined the army, when they were still at Farm No. 17.

As a result, the two were assigned to the same military unit. They got married in 76 and now have a son, Bai Shengli, who was born in 77 and is only three years old.

Jian Guo is still serving in the military as a medic in their compound's medical team.

Therefore, Bai Qi, who has a wife and son, became a positive role model. Every year during holidays, Bai Jing was urged to get married by his family, and naturally became a negative example in the family.

On Baiqi's parents' side, the father is an only child, and the mother's eldest uncle has only one daughter, who got married ten years ago and has four children. The second uncle has a son and a daughter, who also got married early.

Among their generation, Bai Jing is the only one who is still unmarried.

Most importantly, Bai Jing doesn't even have many female friends, which is a bit of a headache.

Therefore, Bai Jing usually doesn't like to stay at home. So, he just got home and saw that Bai Qi had returned. He used the excuse of inviting Bai Qi to dinner to go out.

In the end, Bai Qi couldn't resist Bai Jing's insistence and went out to eat with him.

The weather just happened to start getting cooler these past few days, the two of them

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to go eat hot pot with mutton.

As luck would have it, Bai Jing and Bai Qi had just sat down in the restaurant when they saw two familiar faces in the private room next door.

Bai Jing immediately walked in that direction.

Seeing Bai Jing get up, Bai Qi was also a little puzzled. He looked in the direction Bai Jing had gone and got up to walk in that direction as well, calling out, "Hu Bayi!"

Upon hearing the voice, the three people at the other table, who had been eating, chatting, and laughing, looked over in confusion.

Immediately following, Bai Jing, who had already walked to the table, and Bai Qi, who was walking over, were seen.

This greatly surprised Hu Bayi.

After the initial shock came great joy.

Hu Bayi immediately hugged Bai Jing, and then Fatty also wanted to hug him.

Bai Jing said with a hint of disdain, "What are you hugging me for? We haven't seen each other for three months, what's there to hug?"

Although Fatty and Hu Bayi joined the army together, they only served for five years before returning home.

However, because he was a veteran and because of the urban population, the local authorities assigned him to work in their local public security system. But after less than two years, he couldn't stand the nine-to-five job.

Coupled with the call for reform and opening up at the time, Fatty resigned and came to Beijing.

After arriving in Beijing, with Bai Jing's help, he set up a small shop in Panjiayuan and started selling cassette tapes.

So over the past two years, Bai Jing and Fatty have met frequently.

Whenever Bai Jing is in the capital, he will definitely have meals with Fatty from time to time.

As for Fatty, thanks to the decent performance of the cassette tape market in the past two years, he has now amassed a considerable fortune.

Meanwhile, Hu Bayi, who was on the other side, also saw Bai Qi and couldn't help but look at him and shout, "Section Chief Bai, what's going on?"

Bai Qi waved his hand and said, "No need, I've already resigned. After you left, the higher-ups came to review that incident, and since I didn't want to work there anymore anyway, I took the opportunity to submit a report."

Hearing Bai Qi say this, Hu Bayi immediately understood. How could he not know that the whole thing started because he fired the gun?

He immediately asked Bai Qi to sit down, wanting to offer Bai Qi a few toasts.

Bai Jing looked at the last person at the table. Who else could it be but Big Gold Tooth?

However, what Bai Jing didn't quite understand was that, given his help, Fatty Wang's situation had improved considerably, so why was he still entangled with Big Gold Tooth?

After Fatty and Big Gold Tooth explained, Bai Jing finally understood.

After Bai Jing went to Yunnan Province, Fatty, trying to save money, got ripped off and spent all his money on a batch of cassette tapes.

He bought these cassette tapes from the south, and they weren't cheap.

The tapes had only been in stock for a few days when they announced that they could now import tapes directly from Hong Kong and Taiwan, which immediately halved the price of the tapes.

All the tapes that Fatty had bought before were now stuck in his hands.

You have to understand, his purchase price is almost the same as the selling price of others, how can he compete with them?

As if things weren't bad enough, the fat man had agreed with the landlord to pay the rent annually, but now he was out of money and couldn't pay the rent.

But Bai Jing wasn't in the capital at the time, so there was nothing they could do.

The fat man sold a piece of jade that his father's friend had given him to Big Gold Tooth.

Later, after the fat man found out that he had sold his jade at a loss, he was a little indignant and complained to Hu Bayi on the phone.

Later, when Hu Bayi arrived in the capital, he happened to run into Da Jinya and forcibly snatched the jade back from him.

P.S.: We're still six monthly tickets short of the bonus chapter requirement. Tomorrow is the last day, so if you have any tickets, hurry up and vote!

Chapter 119 Tomb Raiding Exchange

The problem is, Big Gold Tooth isn't exactly a pushover either.

How could he tolerate this? So, early the next morning, he led his men to cause trouble for Fatty and Hu Bayi.

As it turned out, they became friends after a fight. Big Gold Tooth saw Hu Bayi's compass and realized that Hu Bayi had some special abilities.

At noon, he invited Hu Bayi and Fatty to lunch.

They happened to run into Bai Jing and his brother, who had just come home and were having dinner with Bai Qi.

Bai Jing didn't know Da Jin Ya before. In fact, he rarely went to Panjiayuan. He traveled all over the country. How many bargains could he find in Panjiayuan? He usually picked up bargains while doing archaeological work in the countryside.

Take this time for example. He went to Yunnan Province and just picked up a few items from the Yi family's collection. It was much more time-saving and less effort than going to some ghost market like Panjiayuan.

After being introduced by Fatty and Hu Bayi, Bai Jing and his brother became acquainted with Da Jin Ya.

Big Gold Tooth asked a couple of questions, knowing that Bai Jing and Bai Qi were both men of integrity, and given their relationship, he spoke frankly.

"I am Big Gold Tooth, also known as Master Jin. I do antique business in Panjiayuan. My father was a folk tomb raider in his early years."

Upon hearing this, the fat man was alright. Although he vaguely felt that the term "tomb raiding" sounded familiar, he couldn't quite place it for the moment.

After all, that happened more than a decade ago, and I've almost forgotten about it by now.

But Hu Bayi exchanged a glance with Bai Jing.
