Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

Then, he used his cultivation technique to absorb the yin energy from the blue-eyed fox corpse, breaking the illusion that was on it.

On the other side, on the female corpse, was the key to the box, and the key was connected to a mechanism.

The key is used to close the box, but a password is required to open it.

Wu Xie had watched the video, and he still remembered the password.

Wu Xie turned the combination lock on the purple-gold box, and it landed on 0.

As he expected, inside was a bronze fish with snake-like eyebrows.

King Lu Shang's Ghost Seal has been replaced by Wang Zanghai.

The female corpse on the other side was still lying quietly, as if she were asleep.

Wu Xie used his divine sense to investigate and found that the female corpse had been fitted with hidden weapons, and her internal organs had been emptied out.

She had a key in her mouth, her oral cavity was fitted with a mechanism, and there was a deadly poison on her teeth.

Wu Xie used his divine sense to destroy the mechanisms on her body and successfully obtained the key.

"Nephew! Didn't Little Brother come with you?" Wu Sansheng asked, looking at Wu Xie.

"Third Uncle, Little Brother went to look for the Ghost Seal! Unfortunately, the Ghost Seal has already been taken away by Wang Zanghai." Wu Xie sighed, somewhat helplessly.

"Young Master Panzi." He walked over and immediately saw the two mummified corpses on the stone bed.

"Little innocent, Fatty has finally found you." Fatty Wang helped Da Kui appear at the entrance of a tomb passage.

Wu Sansheng looked at Wu Xie and asked, "Nephew, what good stuff have you found? Let your uncle take a look?"

"Third Uncle, I found a bronze fish with snake-eyebrows. It must have been left behind by Wang Zanghai on purpose," Wu Xie said to Wu Sansheng.

As Wu Sansheng spoke, he observed Wu Xie's reaction: "The Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish is said to contain the secret of immortality, but unfortunately, only when all three Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish appear together can that secret of immortality be unlocked."

Wu Xie doesn't have much desire for immortality now, as the cultivation method he's currently practicing has the potential to grant him that.

Most importantly, he has the advantage of having a chat group. As long as he accumulates points, he will eventually have the opportunity to become an immortal.

This is much more reliable than their attempt to find immortality in tombs!

Wu Xie has already used his divine sense to analyze the Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish and is gradually understanding the information contained within it.

"Third Uncle, do you believe in that so-called immortality?" Wu Xie asked seemingly casually, but it was actually a test for his third uncle.

"It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't. One should always have some hopes in life," Wu Sansheng replied subconsciously.

Wu Xie sighed and said, "Everyone else probably thinks the same way, which is why so many people come here to die one after another. There is only death in the tomb, not immortality. Third Uncle, if you start off on the wrong path, then all your efforts will be in vain."

Wu Sansheng looked at Wu Xie thoughtfully and nodded slightly.

He understood Wu Xie's meaning: the mystery of immortality might just be a tempting trap, luring people toward destruction.

At this moment, Fatty Wang interjected, "Hey Little Innocent, why have you become so profound? But you're right, let's hurry up and get out of this awful place!"

"There's still one last blood-soaked rice dumpling to deal with. Let's finish it before we leave," Wu Xie nodded.

Wu Sansheng suddenly asked, "Nephew, why did you go down into the tomb?"

“Third Uncle, there are so many evil spirits in the world, yet people know nothing about them. They live their entire lives in lies. My goal is to make lies no longer lies. I want to eliminate all the hidden evil spirits so that those people can continue to dream their dreams.” Wu Xie said firmly to Wu Sansheng.

After scanning the stone platform, Wu Xie sensed the presence of a mechanism inside. He walked onto the platform and used a Thousand-Pound Drop technique.

The stone platform suddenly sank halfway down, as if a button had been pressed, activating a mechanism in the tomb, accompanied by a series of clicking sounds.

Hidden chains popped out, and a rotating mechanism pulled the chains out, drawing out a coffin.

Once the mechanism stopped, the coffin was pulled in front of everyone.

Looking at the coffin before him, Wu Xie said, "No tomb raider ever comes to a good end. King Lu Shang was also a tomb raider, which is why he appeared in the Seven Star Coffin. There is a tomb within a tomb, and a coffin within a coffin. This is a story of substitution and lurking in the shadows."

"These chains are so tightly bound, they must be to prevent the contents from escaping!" Wu Sansheng asked, looking at the coffin.

A huge gap was torn open at the base of the Hydra Cypress, and the coffin was hidden inside for thousands of years.

Wang Pangzi, Wu Sansheng, Pan Zi, Da Kui, A Ning, and Zhang Qiling also gathered around, examining the coffin.

Uncle San glanced at Wu Xie, then looked at A Ning beside him, and looked thoughtful.

The world of courtyard houses, Hong Kong.

Watching Wu Xie defeat the last blood zombie in the live stream and lead everyone away from the tomb, Xiao Shan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Wu Xie's first time going down into the pit was pretty perfect!

After pulling his attention away from the chat group, Xiao Shan went to spend time with his wife, Ding Qiunan.

Speaking of which, Ding Qiunan is now an older pregnant woman.

After giving birth to this child, Xiao Shan absolutely refused to let Ding Qiunan get pregnant and have children again!

In April 78, Ding Qiunan successfully gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl.

Xiaoshan named the boy Xiao Jinglan and the girl Xiao Jingsi.

Upon learning that Ding Qiunan had given birth to twins, Xiao Shan's parents-in-law and his master and mistress were overjoyed.

They all hoped that Xiao Shan could bring the twins back to Beijing to show them!

Xiaoshan naturally tried its best to fulfill their wishes.

So in October 78, the Xiao family returned to Beijing.

As for the group's affairs in Hong Kong, with Lou Xiao'e helping to keep an eye on things, there shouldn't be any major problems.

This return can be considered a triumphant homecoming, so Xiaoshan brought many gifts with him.

Not only his parents-in-law and his master and mistress, but Xiao Shan was also very generous to his friends.

Even the neighbors in the courtyard house received gifts from Xiaoshan.

Because Qin Huairu remarried and the Jia family moved out, the courtyard has actually been quite harmonious in recent years.

Seeing how wealthy the Xiao family is now, everyone naturally has their own little thoughts.

Xiao Shan was perfectly aware of their ulterior motives.

However, the only people in the courtyard who were truly close to him were He Yuzhu and Xu Damao, and at most Liu Guangtian.

So apart from these three, Xiao Shan politely refuted all the other people's little schemes.

Although everyone was dissatisfied with Xiaoshan's behavior, now that Xiaoshan was wealthy, they naturally didn't dare to say anything to his face.

As for what they say behind their backs, Xiao Shan doesn't care!

Chapter 692, Xu Damao Resigns and Goes into Business! (Please Subscribe!)

That evening, just as Xiao Shan's family returned from his father-in-law's house, Xu Damao came looking for them.

Because it had been a long time since Xiao Shan had drunk with Xu Damao, he invited Xu Damao to sit down and have a drink together.

Seeing that Xiao Shan was still drinking with him as before, Xu Damao was naturally very happy.

After a few rounds of drinks, Xu Damao, slightly tipsy, said to Xiao Shan, "Xiao Shan, now that we're allowed to do business, what do you think about me quitting my job at the steel rolling mill? The wages there are too low; they're not enough to live on."

"Brother Mao, you and Yu Haitang both get double salaries, and this still isn't enough to make ends meet?"

Xu Damao sighed and said, "Yes!"

Xiao Shan nodded, then looked at Xu Damao and said, "Brother Mao, what are you planning to do? I think it's best to find your own path before talking about resigning! You can't just resign all at once and then find out you don't know what to do."

“You’re right!” Xu Damao said in a low voice, “But I’ve already thought it through! I plan to cooperate with Second Uncle. Second Uncle has an apprentice who is the factory manager of the Third Factory. He can get some unplanned rebar. Steel is in short supply right now. We can get the goods and sell them at a higher price.”

Xiao Shan laughed and said, "Brother Mao, since you have connections, go for it! But the key to this matter is Second Uncle. It's like you don't have any connections of your own. If you rely solely on Second Uncle, you'll be at a disadvantage in terms of equity distribution."

"Let's get started. You know my capabilities, don't you? Once I've smoothed things over, who knows who will end up with this business!" Xu Damao said confidently to Xiao Shan.

Looking at Xu Damao's appearance, Xiao Shan was speechless, wondering where Xu Damao got his mysterious confidence from.

Xu Damao is just not cut out for business!

He looks energetic, but he's actually just silly.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have almost frozen to death at the entrance of the courtyard house in the original drama, and it was He Yuzhu who ultimately saved him.

Anyone with a modicum of common sense wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state.

As before, Xiao Shan took the drunk Xu Damao home.

Watching Xu Damao being helped into the house by Yu Haitang, Xiao Shan couldn't help but sigh: "This guy's alcohol tolerance hasn't improved at all!"

The next day, Xu Damao went to the steel rolling mill to resign.

Since the policy has gradually relaxed, Xu Damao has become increasingly dissatisfied with the projectionist's salary of just over thirty yuan.

Even a street vendor selling pancakes earns more than him, which is something Xu Damao absolutely cannot tolerate.

After leaving the steel rolling mill, Xu Damao went straight to the department store and bought a suit, dressing himself up like a successful person.

That's why he wandered around the streets looking for business opportunities.

Xu Damao had previously told Xiao Shan that he wanted to do business with Liu Haizhong, and that was also his plan.

But rushing into things won't make a sale; he needs to earn some money first to attract Liu Haizhong's attention before he can proceed with the next step of his plan.

Today, Xiao Shan's family was invited to He Yuzhu's home for dinner.

At the dinner table, He Yuzhu listened to Xiao Shan talk about his life in Hong Kong, and his eyes were full of envy.

Seeing He Yuzhu's envy, Xiao Shan smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, in such a great era, it would be a shame not to do some business! Now, as long as you do something, you can earn more than you would working a regular job. Brother Zhu, if you ask me, you could open a restaurant and earn more in a month than you do in a year!"

"You only make a little over a hundred a month at the steel rolling mill! These days, even a dishwasher at a restaurant can earn fifty or sixty a month. With your skills, you could easily make two thousand as a chef at a big hotel."

"If you don't want to work for someone else, just open your own restaurant and grow it from small to large. With your sister-in-law looking after you, it'll be a breeze, won't it?"

He Yuzhu was moved by Xiao Shan's words!

But having worked in the steel rolling mill for half his life, he was reluctant to leave all at once.

However, after Xiao Shan and his family left, Li Caijuan supported He Yuzhu in opening his own restaurant.

Seeing He Yuzhu still hesitating, Li Caijuan said to him, "Zhuzi, how about this? Let's go to Baocheng to see your dad and hear his opinion. It's been so many years since we last visited him. You have to do your duty as a son."

"If Dad is willing, we can bring him back. He can help look after the kids at home, and we can both focus on our work outside without worry."

He Yuzhu sighed: "Where will my dad stay when he comes back? I'm not afraid of my dad coming back, I just don't want to see that woman surnamed Bai and her two idiot sons."

Li Caijuan smiled and said, "Let's go take a look first, and let your dad give us some feedback."

After spending more than half a month in Beijing, the Xiaoshan family was ready to return to Hong Kong.

Meanwhile, Xu Damao actually made some money by running a few business deals outside.

After learning that Xu Damao was making money, Liu Haizhong took the initiative to ask Xu Damao where he made his fortune!

In response to Liu Haizhong's question, Xu Damao laughed and said, "Haha, Second Uncle, I've run a few business deals outside, just earning a meager living. Now I realize how easy it is to make money; it's much better than working myself to the bone before. It's just that I don't have enough funds right now, otherwise I would have earned even more."

Hearing Xu Damao's words, Liu Haizhong was filled with envy.

I was also thinking about making money, and when I got home I couldn't sleep, tossing and turning.

The next morning, Liu Haizhong blocked Xu Damao's door.

Xu Damao, dressed neatly, saw Liu Haizhong as soon as he stepped out, and thought to himself, "He's taken the bait."

After calming himself down a bit, Xu Damao looked at Liu Haizhong and said, "Second Uncle, is something wrong so early in the morning?"

Liu Haizhong looked at Xu Damao and said, "Damao, your second uncle knows you're short on funds right now. I've been thinking about it. We've lived in the same courtyard for so many years. If you have any difficulties, just tell your second uncle! You may not have money, but I do. I've already given you 30,000 yuan..."

Xu Damao suppressed a smug smile and said calmly to Liu Haizhong, "Second Uncle, what do you say about this money?"

"I'd like to invest. Do you think it's possible for you to bring Uncle Er along to start a business together? It would be a great story if we, father and son, worked together." Liu Haizhong looked at Xu Damao with hopeful eyes.

Xiao Shan was preparing breakfast at home when he heard Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao's conversation and almost burst out laughing.

Surprisingly, Liu Haizhong's language skills have improved since he retired.
