The three of them were eating when suddenly Shen Aobing's phone rang. She saw that it was Yuan Dingshan.
"Hello? Uncle Yuan? Looking for me?"
"Yes, please quickly turn on the TV, the news channel."
Yuan Dingshan couldn't hide his joy in his words.
"Hehe, the bad guys are really getting their comeuppance. The Shi family and the Zuo family are completely finished, hahaha."
Shen Aobing hung up the phone while Yuan Dingshan laughed wildly with joy.
She walked to the TV and turned it on. The morning news was broadcasting a major case that shocked the country.
Shi Jia and Zuo Jia were officially investigated by Chinese officials for accepting bribes, tax evasion, organizing gangs, spreading cults, controlling capital, and manipulating public opinion.
The children of Zuo Shi's family and some important political officials were all handcuffed and taken away in a police car.
Wang Tao saw several familiar figures on the TV screen.
Wang Zhibing and Wang Guicai and his son, Shi Haoran and the head of the Shi family, Shi Yihang, etc.
Next is the news reward announcement. Zuo Liang and Zuo Hongyuan absconded in fear of crime and are wanted nationwide.
"The state takes action?"
Shen Aobing's face relaxed, and at the same time he was very confused.
The Shi family and the Zuo family have been in Qingyun City for so many years, but they were investigated just because they said they were going to investigate?
Yuan Ziling was also full of doubts, but she knew that Wang Tao must be clear.
"It's always a good thing that the dark clouds have cleared, and our company can finally achieve its goals."
Wang Tao said comfortingly.
"Indeed, those who do unrighteousness will surely be punished by themselves. The historians and the Zuo family are responsible for themselves."
Yuan Ziling also echoed.
Although Shen Aobing was full of doubts, he felt relieved after the company's affairs were resolved.
"Well, I take it you won't go to the company today? You didn't sleep last night. Have a good rest today."
Wang Tao suggested as he looked at the two men with very bad expressions.
"Well, okay! I didn't go to bed until dawn, and now I'm so sleepy. I'm going to catch up on my sleep."
Yuan Ziling nodded and said with a yawn.
"Yeah! That's fine. I'll call Uncle Yuan later and I won't go to the company today."
Shen Aobing also nodded. Anyway, with the investigation of the Zuo family and the Shi family, the company's affairs have been resolved, and some business matters are not urgent.
"Well, you guys should rest at home. I have to go out for something today and I might be back in the evening."
As soon as Wang Tao finished speaking, Shen Aobing and Yuan Ziling looked over in confusion.
"Some things my master told me."
Wang Tao made up a random reason.
"Wang Wusheng? Well, go ahead and come back early."
Shen Aobing responded, and Yuan Ziling lowered his head and looked at Wang Tao doubtfully with his beautiful eyes.
Wang Tao felt as if he was receiving an amnesty, so he quickly went back to his room to tidy up, then took a small bag and went out.
"Wait a moment."
Shen Aobing suddenly called out Wang Tao.
"this is for you."
Seeing that Wang Tao was confused, Shen Aobing took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it to Wang Tao.
"There are five hundred thousand in it. According to our contract, I will pay your salary in advance."
"Oh, I almost forgot."
Wang Tao remembered that Shen Aobing gave him one hundred thousand pocket money every month in order to retain him.
"good."
Wang Tao nodded and accepted it, put the card in his pocket and went out.
Because Qingyun City was too far from Jintai Town, he first took a bus to Qushui City, and then used his skills to rush to Houshan Village of Jintai Town.
He didn't disturb anyone during this trip, and didn't stop until he reached the stone wall in the back mountain.
Familiarly, he moved the stones away and walked down the Robber's Cave. This time he felt the desolate atmosphere was stronger than last time.
Maybe it’s because my strength has improved and my senses have become sharper.
Wang Tao was thinking this, and when he came to the familiar corridor, suddenly there was an uneasy buzzing in the red behind his ears.
Wang Tao felt a chill in his heart and hesitated in his steps.
Logically speaking, this is Piaohong's mother's home, so she should be excited, but why does she seem to be very uneasy?
Because he had night vision and did not bring any lighting equipment, he gritted his teeth and continued walking forward while looking at the darkness in the distance.
Piao Hong seemed to be even more frightened, her little body fell on his forehead, trembling.
In order to obtain the things in the meteorite, there is nothing else to worry about.
Wang Tao became furious and quickly passed through the corridor, the Temple of Heaven, and the Temple of Earth before arriving at the stone wall of the platform at the end.
"Senior, are you here, senior?"
Wang Tao shouted, and there was an echo from the silent surroundings.
"Quack, quack."
Wang Tao heard the sound and looked towards the stone wall suddenly. He saw that the stone wall cracked and a stone chamber appeared. The stone chamber was completely dark, and a pair of big blood-red eyes in the darkness were staring at Wang Tao closely.
Wang Tao was stared at by blood-red eyes, and warning signs rang out in his heart. The thought of invincibility and death enveloped his mind.
Damn it! What is this?
Wang Tao was startled. He nervously took out the meteorite and stared at the blood-red eyes in the stone chamber with a wary expression.
He vaguely saw the owner of the blood-red eyes. It was the huge black earth element shadow that he saw that day, which was the old gold-eating insect of Immortal Jin Dan.
What happened to it? Out of control?
Wang Tao was surprised. Seeing the old gold-eating insect staring at him motionless, he did not dare to act rashly. His back was soaked with cold sweat as he remained in a stalemate.
"Buzz, buzz buzz."
Piao Hong, who had been uneasy all the time, suddenly flew out. Before Wang Tao could stop him, he saw Piao Hong being pulled into the stone chamber by an invisible force.
"Flowing red!"
Wang Tao shouted, spit out a mouthful of blood to activate the meteorite, and was about to rush forward, when he suddenly saw the blood-red eyes of the old gold-eating insect gradually dimming.
Oil lamps suddenly lit up on the walls around the stone chamber, and a colorful and huge ladybug appeared in front of Wang Tao's eyes. It looked like a thousand-fold magnified version of the pink ladybug.
The old gold-eating bug seems to have regained his consciousness?
Wang Tao was wary in his heart, and slowly approached, and saw the little Piaohong flying happily in front of the old gold-eating insect, waving its wings from time to time and making a buzzing sound.
"Senior? Are you okay?"
Wang Tao put away the meteorite and stood respectfully in front of the stone chamber, not daring to go in.
At this time, words suddenly appeared on the stone wall, and two simple seal characters "come in" appeared.
Wang Tao nodded, secretly admiring the skills of this old gold-eating insect. It could not speak but could control the stone wall to display characters.
It is indeed the pet of Immortal Jin Dan, an old monster that has lived for countless years.
"sit."
Wang Tao walked in, looked at the words on the stone wall, glanced at the furnishings inside, and sat on the stone bench in a nervous mood.
This is a three-meter-square stone room with nothing else except a stone table, a stone bench and a stone bed.
"I've been waiting here for too long, and I've been contaminated with too much ancient energy. I can't control it anymore."
Wang Tao glanced at the words on the stone wall and felt slightly heavy.
"Are you waiting for Immortal Jin Dan here? He did not ascend, but went to the ancient Jedi underground?"
Wang Tao asked doubtfully.
"Yes, the realm of ancient martial arts is cut off. He can only reach the early stage of Yuan Dan in his life. Over the past hundred years, he has tried every means and has made no progress in his cultivation. After all, he is a human being and his life span is limited, so he decided to go to the ancient Jedi underground to find opportunities."
"How long has this happened? Has the ancient Jedi always existed since ancient times?"
