The fat man scratched his head, "Why did the Wang family kidnap the boss's wife?"
Su Mo explained, "The descendants of Fengwo Mountain are skilled in mechanisms, and there is a mechanism in Dixian Village called the Nine Palaces Chili Lock, which is why many members of the Wang family come here!"
Wang Zanghai and the Feng family ancestors both served under Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so it's not surprising that the Wang family knew the secrets of Dixian Village.
Upon hearing Su Mo's words, everyone suddenly realized what was going on.
Zhang Yingchuan looked at Su Mo, "Master Su, can you break this Nine Palaces Chili Lock?"
Zhang Yingchuan glanced at Su Mo, implying that if they couldn't solve the problem, they might as well bring the landlady into the Earth Immortal Village to make things easier.
Su Mo naturally understood Zhang Yingchuan's meaning, and after thinking for a moment, said, "Yes!"
Zhang Yingchuan nodded slightly, abandoning his idea of kidnapping the proprietress.
"Oh, right..."
The young lady slapped her forehead and suddenly remembered something. She went to the corner of the wall and opened a trunk. Inside was something wrapped tightly in several layers of brocade. After she unfolded the brocade, Shirley Yang exclaimed, "A Vajra Umbrella!"
The Vajra Killer is the protective weapon of the tomb raiders. It was passed down from Elder Liaochen and taken to the United States by Partridge Whistle. Later, Shirley Yang brought it out again.
The materials and craftsmanship of this umbrella are secrets that have been lost for a long time, and it is impossible to find someone to make one again.
Sherry Yang never expected to see this treasure here.
The youngest sister said, "Back then, the tomb raider 'Golden Abacus' left behind the blueprints and the secret formula for alloy proportions, which allowed my grandfather to forge a Vajra Umbrella!"
"However, after my grandfather successfully created it, the senior Jin Suanpan disappeared without a trace and never came back to retrieve the umbrella. This matter became a worry for my grandfather before he died!"
"Your treasure, the tomb raiders' treasure, has returned to the tomb raiders today!"
The youngest sister handed the Vajra Umbrella to Su Mo and the others.
Su Mo gave Shirley Yang a look.
Shirley Yang understood immediately and put away the Vajra Umbrella. At the same time, she said, "Senior Jin Suanpan died in the Dragon Ridge Maze. We are the ones who collected his body!"
Su Mo said, "Little sister, it's a waste of your talents for a descendant of Fengwo Mountain to run a restaurant here. How about this, after things are settled in Qingxi Town, come back to Yanjing with us and go back to your family's old trade..."
"Don't you like money? When we get back to Yanjing, name your price, I won't haggle!"
It's hard for Su Mo to find another person in the world who could create such a treasure as the Vajra Umbrella from Honeycomb Mountain.
With so many tomb raiders under his command, many of them lacked a suitable weapon. Special talents like Yaomei'er were hard to come by, so Su Mo also had the idea of recruiting her.
The moment money was mentioned, Yaomei's eyes lit up. "Salary? I can name my price!"
Su Mo nodded, "Drive as you like!"
The young woman said, "Ten thousand a month... no, fifteen thousand a month? You should know, even if I work hard at my little restaurant, I can still earn nearly ten thousand a month!"
Su Mo: "..."
puff!
The fat man couldn't help but chuckle, "How ridiculous the Wang family is! It's just a matter of ten thousand yuan, and they're making such a fuss over it!"
Old Hu couldn't stand it anymore. "Little sister, your brother Su is the richest man in China. He donated no less than 10 billion yuan just for the Sichuan earthquake!"
"Oh my god..."
The young woman's mouth dropped open. "10 billion!! I couldn't earn that much money even if I ran a restaurant my whole life!"
"..."
Everyone was speechless, unsure of what to say for a moment.
"it is good!"
The little girl clenched her fists, as if she had been given an adrenaline shot, and said, "I'll go with you, I'll go to Yanjing with you!"
Su Mo said, "Alright, after we finish things in Qingxi Town, we'll take you back to Yanjing!"
"Young lady, are you...you also going to the Earth Immortal Village? Let me take you in!"
"..."
Everyone was surprised and looked at Yaomei with some astonishment.
The youngest sister said, "Although I am not from the Feng clan, my ancestral home is in Qingxi Town. I know many secrets that outsiders don't. It will probably be quite difficult for you to enter the Earth Immortal Village now..."
Su Mo sighed, "It's not just a matter of going through a lot of trouble. There's the Nine Deaths Terrifying Tomb Armor in the Earth Immortal Village, which is the ultimate mechanism used to prevent tomb raiding!"
"This Jia is secretly arranged according to the cycle of the Earthly Branches. Its 'Gate of Life' is only opened for three days in a certain month of the Earth Rat year in each cycle, that is, in each of the twelve years!"
"We are in the wrong time, in the wrong place, and we've been hit by a natural disaster like an earthquake. We don't have the right timing, the right place, or the right people!"
"Even I wouldn't dare to enter rashly!"
Seeing the serious expression on Su Mo's face, everyone realized how difficult the problem was.
"or…"
The fat man said, "Let's retreat. What does Earth Immortal Village have to do with us?"
Su Mo shook his head and said in a deep voice, "The divination indicates that an Earth Immortal will appear, and the tomb raiding lineage will be wiped out!"
The fat man clicked his tongue and immediately fell silent.
The little girl's eyes darted around, "I also know a way to get into the Immortal Village..."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then quickly looked at the youngest sister.
Old Hu was astonished. "That shouldn't be the case. Whenever there's a large mausoleum, let alone a second entrance, some of the laborers who built the tomb passage would also be buried with it. The Earth Immortal Village was built by Feng Shigu, who was a cunning and ruthless person... How could a second passage have been left behind?"
"oops…"
The youngest sister said discontentedly, "I know this place better than you do, and this passage wasn't left by Feng Shigu. A few days ago, an earthquake caused a tunnel to crack open in the Coffin Gorge of Wushan, and some villagers nearby found many antique treasures..."
Sherry Yang was both surprised and delighted, "Really?"
The young lady said, "What do you mean by 'true' or 'false'? If you don't believe me, I can take you there right now!"
Su Mo, Lao Hu, and Fatty exchanged a glance and immediately said, "Alright, let's set off now!"
"Row!"
The youngest sister replied, "No problem!"
After saying goodbye to his brothers, Su Mo, along with Lao Hu, Fatty, and Shirley Yang, left Qingxi Town and walked for about half an hour before arriving at Wushan Gorge.
The Wushan Gorge is a maze of caves and grottoes, overlapping and layering one another. Old Hu took out his compass to determine the location. However, the compass stopped working at this point; the magnetic field was chaotic, which made him uneasy.
If the compass is malfunctioning, it means this place is extremely inauspicious!
Chapter 381: The Thing Controlling the Red-Eyed Wolf
Seeing that the compass was no longer working, Lao Hu immediately began to observe the surroundings using the sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret technique.
However, the surrounding mountains are continuous and the earthquake damage has made it unrecognizable.
Old Hu stared at it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out. He was extremely discouraged. "Damn it, my Dragon-Seeking Technique is ineffective here!"
Su Mo looked around the valley and saw a steep stone path leading to the bottom of the valley in front of the cave in the distance. However, he could not see the bottom of the valley from there.
Opposite is a vast expanse of sheer cliffs reaching to the sky, with dozens of waterfalls formed after the rain gushing out from within the mountains.
Descending from the cliff, one reaches the Wushan Coffin Gorge, which resembles a giant rift.
Su Mo said, "Little sister is right, there is indeed a tunnel here that leads to the ancient tomb of the Earth Immortal!"
Although Lao Hu's sixteen-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret technique is no longer usable, it doesn't mean that Su Mo can't see its secrets. Su Mo has mastered the complete sixteen-character Yin-Yang secret technique, and his abilities far surpass those of Lao Hu.
"Then what are we waiting for..."
The fat man said directly, "Let's get started!"
Su Mo shook his head again, "No rush..."
"Little sister, come in with us. Don't worry, I'll make sure you're safe!"
The young woman nodded, being a straightforward Sichuan girl, "Okay!"
Su Mo continued, "We'll find the Bashan Ape later; it should be familiar with this place too!"
Everyone nodded again.
Su Mo looked at Zhang Yingchuan, "Old Zhang, what have you been up to this time?"
Zhang Yingchuan looked at Su Mo with a puzzled expression.
Su Mo didn't give him a chance to speak, and explained, "The Wang family has always been a troublemaker. I trust you to stay in Qingxi Town and deal with them!"
Although Su Mo said he didn't care about the Wang family, this time was unusual, as even the head of the Wang family had come for the Earth Immortal Village, so a confrontation between them and the Wang family was inevitable.
Zhang Yingchuan sighed helplessly, "Fine, I'll deal with the Wang family outside the tomb!"
……
After half an hour.
The brothers brought over the equipment that Lao Hu and the others had used when they were tomb raiding. Bashan apes also accompanied them. Afterwards, everyone said goodbye and officially entered the canyon.
At the bottom of the gorge is a turbulent river.
There are many natural bluestone beaches on both sides, and between the dangerous rapids, there are several winding stone plank roads for passage.
This is another entrance to Coffin Gorge.
After walking a few hundred meters, Su Mo, with his keen hearing, heard a whooshing sound ahead.
The sound was like the breathing of a densely packed group of animals.
Su Mo was startled and reached out to stop Yao Mei'er, "Stop! There are wolves ahead!"
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
"Wolves? If there are wolves in this place, we'll have almost no direction to run."
Old Hu and his companions held up flashlights and looked around.
This unseen terror is truly unbearable.
Su Mo said in a deep voice, "Turn off the flashlight!"
Having raided tombs for years, the group had absolute trust in Su Mo. After quickly turning off their flashlights, Lao Hu and the others followed Su Mo by sound, even though they could barely see him.
