In Panjiayuan, the first thing they did was trick Lao Hu into going tomb raiding.

Black Bear shook his head, "Nobody knows, this old woman is the only clue right now!"

"This plate was a keepsake from her and Chen Wenjin. It contains a map showing the way to Tamutuo!"

Black Bear spoke very softly, afraid of disturbing the old man.

"Zaxi, damn it, cough cough, excuse me I can't pinch it, bomici de, dudu mada!"

The old lady spoke to the dark-skinned young man beside her.

The old lady spoke the local ethnic language, which none of those present, including Su Mo, could understand.

Everyone turned to look at the young man.

Fortunately, the young man didn't disappoint everyone, translating for them: "My grandma said the plate isn't complete; it's missing a part, so we can't go!"

Ah Ning asked, "Do you know where those porcelain shards are?"

The old lady's grandson, Zaxi, translated Aning's words to her again, successfully acting as a messenger between the two sides.

The old woman gestured, "Ah, the initial stage of hitting rock bottom..."

Everyone: "..."

He then looked at the young man, Zaxi.

Tashi understood and immediately told everyone, "They've been taken to Lantso..."

Upon learning the location of the fragment, A Ning immediately breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Zhang Qiling and Hei Xiazi, saying, "Let's go to Lan Cuo!"

Zhang Qiling and Black Eyes nodded and turned to leave.

Wu Xie immediately chased after him: "Hey, bro!"

Outside the tent, Wu Xie stopped Zhang Qiling and grabbed his hand tightly.

Black Bear stood to the side, chuckling with a lewd expression. "Looks like Third Master has something to say to you!"

"How about I go to Lancuo by myself? Anyway, all those small courtyard farmhouses and guesthouses look like the kind of places I should go!"

After saying that, Hei Xiazi patted Zhang Qiling on the shoulder and turned to leave.

Zhang Qiling looked at Wu Xie and said, "Go back, this trip is too dangerous!"

Wu Xie took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll go back, but you have to answer a few questions for me!"

Zhang Qiling's expression remained perfectly calm. "I'm also searching for the answer!"

At this moment!

Ah Ning, Su Mo, the four generals, and Xiao Cun Ding also came out.

Seeing the slightly awkward atmosphere between Zhang Qiling and Wu Xie, A Ning teased, "Did you have a fight?"

Wu Xie rolled his eyes. "It's not good to eavesdrop on other people's conversations!"

Ah Ning rolled her eyes at Wu Tianzhen, crossed her arms, and said, "This is my camp!"

Wu Xie: "..."

Ah Ning smiled slightly and kindly reminded her, "There's a long-distance bus station a few kilometers away; you can hitch a ride with me!"

With Su Mo, the Four Fiends, Zhang Qiling, and Hei Xiazi around, A Ning really didn't think much of the Wu family's young master.

However, since they were friends and had gone through life and death together many times, she could take the other person to the station.

"..."

Wu Xie glanced at Su Mo, then asked A Ning, "When are you leaving for Tamutuo?"

Aning replied, "We'll set off once we have all the maps."

"it is good!"

Wu Xie said in a deep voice, "I'm going with you. If I can't go, then you can forget about going either!"

Wu Xie deliberately put on a stern face and threatened.

"Hahaha"

Ah Ning covered her mouth and chuckled, "If you want to report me, then let me tell you, our expedition has already been approved!"

"........."

Wu Xie was stunned.

Oh no, everyone's seen through my hand!

Wu Xie looked defeated. After a long while, he mustered his courage and said again, "Then let me tell you, since Chen Wenjin chose to send me the videotape as well, it means she wants me to go. In other words, she needs me to go!"

Seeing Wu Xie's confident expression, A Ning was taken aback. "You have clues you're hiding from me?"

"Okay, okay..."

Ah Ning said nothing more, "Since you're courting death, you might as well come with us..."

"If you really die here, I'm afraid your third uncle will come after me. You're the only son of the Wu family!"

Chapter 415: The Xie Family and the Huo Family

night!

Su Mo, A Ning, Xiao Ge, Wu Xie, and the Four Fiends were having a meal.

Hei Xiazi returned from Lancuo with two "acquaintances".

"Oh dear, timing is everything! Here, give me a pair of chopsticks, I'm starving!"

Hei Xiazi took the chopsticks Wu Xie handed him, sat down next to Su Mo, and began to eat with relish.

"Master!"

"Master Su!"

Accompanying Hei Xiazi in were Su Mo's apprentices, Xie Xiaohua and Huo Xiuxiu.

The two were surprised to see Su Mo as soon as they entered; they really didn't expect to see Su Mo here.

"Master..."

Jie Xiaohua's mouth dropped open. "You're here too? Sister Yingzi said you went to Japan..."

Su Mo put down his chopsticks and said, "I just got back, what are you all doing here?"

"We wanted to find out some secrets about the previous generation of the Nine Gates, and we found our way here based on the Lu Huang Silk Manuscript. Master, how did you end up here?"

Xie Xiaohua did not hide anything from Su Mo and truthfully revealed her purpose.

"Come on, Xiaohua, Xiuxiu, please sit down."

Chaos brought over two stools, and after the two sat down, Su Mo casually said, "I've come to investigate some things..."

"Are you hungry? Here, have something to eat!"

Su Mo placed two new sets of bowls and chopsticks in front of the two of them.

Xie Xiaohua scanned the people present, her gaze finally settling on Wu Xie. She asked again, puzzled, "Wu Xie, what are you doing here???"

Huo Xiuxiu asked curiously, "Yeah, Brother Wu Xie, what are you doing here?"

"Why!"

Wu Xie sighed, looking dejected. "It's a long story. In short, I was tricked into coming here by two videotapes!"

"video tape?"

At this moment, Huo Xiuxiu also remembered the unknown videotape her grandmother had received, and quickly asked, "What kind of videotape?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Wu Xie opened his mouth, about to say something, when he heard Su Mo cough.

"..."

Wu Xie looked at Su Mo.

Su Mo gave him a look without changing his expression.

"..."

Wu Xie suddenly recalled the "forbidden woman" he had seen at the Golmud Sanatorium, who was actually Huo Xiuxiu's aunt, Huo Ling. He immediately understood Su Mo's meaning and said, "The videotape itself is nothing, the key is what's hidden in the videotape. After I discovered it, I was led here."

After hearing this, Huo Xiuxiu thought about it seriously. It turned out that videotapes could also be used to hide things.

Did the videotape that Grandma received also contain clues?

After a moment's thought, Huo Xiuxiu realized the logic in the matter and secretly made a mental note of it.

After everyone finished exchanging pleasantries, Ah Ning could no longer hold back.

"Did you bring back what I asked you to get?"

A Ning asked the black bear who was wolfing down his food.

This is outrageous! I asked you to bring me two pieces of porcelain, and instead you brought back two people, and they're from the Huo and Xie families of the Nine Gates!

Aning was very dissatisfied with Hei Xiazi's trip.

When Hei Xiazi heard the boss ask the question, he swallowed the meat soup in his mouth with a "slurp" and laughed awkwardly: "Hehe, those two pieces of porcelain are in their hands. They had already taken them when I arrived!"

After saying that, he put on an innocent expression, indicating that it wasn't his fault; it was just that the other person was quick!

"..."

Ah Ning rolled her eyes at Hei Xiazi, and at the same time finally understood why she had brought back two people.

Xie Xiaohua looked at A Ning and asked, "What do you want these two porcelain shards for?"

"Hey…"

Su Mo patted Xie Xiaohua's head and said, "Just take it out when I tell you to, why are you talking so much nonsense..."

Jie Xiaohua: "..."

Ah Ning and Hei Xiazi exchanged amused glances, thinking to themselves, "Seeing the head of the Xie family suffer a setback today, this trip was truly worthwhile!"

The four villains exchanged knowing smiles. Unlike Ah Ning, the four of them knew that Master Su had no sons, but treated Xiao Hua as his own.
