Unorthodox methods, cultivating immortality relies on rich women
Chapter 140 Tomb Raiding Clues
"The ancient history is no longer verifiable. All we know is that the Ant Hole Star Chart first appeared in the hands of King Ping of Chu. King Ping of Chu's grandson and Prince Jian's son, Bai Gongsheng, was my Bai family's ancestor..." Bai Yukui recounted in detail.
But Shen Qingzhou interrupted her, "Don't think I'm a science student who doesn't understand history. King Ping of Chu should have the surname Mi and the clan name Xiong. What does that have to do with your Bai family? You might as well say that Mi Yue is your ancestor."
Bai Yukui was almost amused by his words and explained, "Bai Gongsheng was also called Xiong Sheng. King Hui of Chu granted Baiyi as his fief and appointed him as the magistrate of Baiyi County. According to the patriarchal clan system of the Zhou Dynasty, nobles often used the name of their fief as their clan name after being granted a fief. This is also the origin of surnames..."
"Because Xiong Sheng was enfeoffed in Baiyi, the people of Chu respectfully called him Duke Bai. His descendants then took Baiyi as their surname, completely differentiating themselves from the Xiong clan of the Mi surname of the Chu royal family, thus forming our Bai family..."
Hearing Bai Yukui say this, Shen Qingzhou felt that the Ant Hole Star Chart might really be something belonging to their Bai family.
"Later, Bai Gongsheng rebelled against Chu, but was defeated and killed. The Ant Hole Star Map then fell into the hands of the common people, passing through the hands of countless people until the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties when the Bai family found the map again. For more than two hundred years, the map remained in the hands of the Bai family until the early Qing dynasty, when the Bai family was robbed again and the map disappeared..."
"It wasn't until the Republican era that a clue was found again. The painting was acquired by an antique dealer surnamed Wei. Our Bai family repeatedly went to his door to ask for it back, but to no avail. Later, some things happened, and the matter was put on hold again..."
"By the time our Bai family turned back to look for them, the antique dealer and his family had already disappeared without a trace. Later, foreign invasions occurred, and the entire land of China was plunged into war. The Bai family was powerless to stop them..."
"A few years ago, we finally found the descendants of the Wei family, only to learn that the 'Ant Hole Star Chart' had been buried with that antique dealer as a funerary object. However, his tomb had already been robbed. Later, we had someone examine it, and judging from the signs of the robbery, it should be the method used by the Southern school..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingzhou roughly understood why she had come to find him.
"So, you want me to help you find those tomb raiders?"
"Yes."
"This is a bit difficult. We don't know how long those tomb raiders have been robbing. Even if I could summon the spirit of the antique dealer surnamed Wei and ask him, he's been dead for so many years, his spirit is probably long gone..."
"I know, that's why I asked you to perform a spirit summoning ritual for the tomb raider Chen Youguang, not the antique dealer surnamed Wei. He only passed away a few years ago. Wouldn't it be simpler to summon his spirit?"
"You found that group of tomb raiders?" Shen Qingzhou asked, somewhat surprised.
"We found a few of them, but they had all passed away. Only Chen Youguang had been dead for the shortest time, so I thought it would be simpler to summon his spirit."
"It's not a matter of whether it's simple or not. The main thing is whether his soul has entered the underworld. If it has entered the underworld and is no longer in this world, then there's nothing I can do."
"Is there really no other way?"
"I'll have to think about that carefully," Shen Qingzhou said, frowning.
His words meant he must have a solution, which put Bai Yukui's initial worries at ease.
"When are you free? Is tomorrow okay?" Bai Yukui seemed a little anxious.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. The Bai family's lost artifacts, which have been missing for over a hundred years, are about to be recovered by her. Anyone would be eager to do that.
"As long as the money is in place, there's no problem tonight," Shen Qingzhou said.
Bai Yukui looked him up and down and said, "Let's do it tomorrow. I see you just got back today, so get some rest tonight and I'll come again tomorrow."
Bai Yukui then got up to leave.

"Don't forget to transfer the money to the account, or I won't work," Shen Qingzhou hurriedly reminded him.
"Don't worry, I won't forget. I'll arrange for someone to handle it when I get back. The bank is Giraffe Welfare Home, right?" Bai Yukui raised her eyebrows slightly, a gentle smile on her face.
"Yes." Shen Qingzhou nodded.
He secretly wondered to himself, "Is this woman laughing at me for having all the money in my account run off with?"
He needs a spanking.
My gaze drifted down, and wow, her hips looked even fuller in the cheongsam; they looked amazing to the touch.
She noticed Shen Qingzhou's gaze, but instead of getting angry, she swayed her hips and walked towards the door.
Wow, this woman is really good at wiggling; her round, smooth butt could be used to wipe a plate.
Only after Bai Yukui disappeared outside the door did Shen Qingzhou turn her gaze away. Looking down, she saw Xiao Juanmao sitting on the sofa with her knees drawn up, and Xiao Qiu squatting in front of her, staring blankly at her.
Shen Qingzhou walked over, and Xiao Qiu immediately said, "Curly-haired Sister is unhappy."
"You should call me Sister Lin, and I'm not unhappy." Lin Yunong glared at Xiao Qiu.
Shen Qingzhou reached out and hugged her, then said to Xiao Qiu, "I'll talk to your curly-haired sister. Go find your mother and ask her to show you cartoons."
Ever since learning about Tao Wanning's situation, the girl has been sulking. Shen Qingzhou understands, but while he understands, he still hopes she can think more positively.
"You know, I really like children," Shen Qingzhou suddenly said.
Lin Yunong turned to look at him, somewhat puzzled as to why he would say such things, but thinking of Xiao Qiu and the children in the orphanage, she nodded naturally.
"So, I really want a child of my own."
"Although you are my wife, you can't bear my children. I have no choice but to find someone else to have children for me. Otherwise, our Shen family line will end, and I won't be able to become a father. A man who can't become a father isn't a real man. To be worthy of my ancestors and become a real man..."
Lin Yunong subconsciously wanted to nod, but suddenly realized something was wrong. Although she was a little slow, she wasn't stupid.
Shen Qingzhou continued, "So, Tao Wanning is a great candidate. Not only is she healthy, but she's also beautiful. If we had a child, it would definitely be outstanding. Then, I'd make him call you 'Mom.' See, you wouldn't even have to work hard; you'd just get a child for free..."
Lin Yunong shoved a punch into his waist. Although she knew it was useless, it was still really infuriating.
Although... although what he said makes some sense.
"I may be slow-witted, but I'm not stupid. You're not allowed to bully me." She glared at Shen Qingzhou with wide eyes.
Shen Qingzhou laughed heartily, reached out and grabbed her hand, then slapped it on her...
