In the private room on the top floor of the Crescent Hotel, several people sat down separately. Hu Ming smelled the fragrance of Yin Nanfeng who came after hearing the news, and stared at Zhang Rishan's right hand.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent for a while.
When the two teenagers came to this familiar place again, they were quite embarrassed and did not even dare to look at Zhang Yueshan head-on.
Last time, they came here to look for clues about Li Cu, but they were caught by Zhang Yueshan who happened to be working here.
Now that I see Zhang Rishan again, can I not feel guilty?
"You're hurt!"
After a long time, Hu Ming said firmly.
"...I have such a poisonous eye. I have received medical treatment and tried my best to hide it, but I didn't expect that you would see through it at a glance!".
Zhang Rishan felt a little stiff, and his right hand was a little less dexterous than before, and he admitted it freely.
What Zhang Yueshan wanted to hide was not the people in front of him.
As for these two "outsider" kids... Zhang Yueshan doesn't mind.
"Uncle Ming, it was done by the Wang family. It was done by a Wang family spy hidden within your nine sects!"
Speaking of this, Yin Nanfeng's face looked a little unhappy.
Over the years, only a handful of people have dared to come to Xinyue Hotel to cause trouble! Not to mention such exaggerated things as assassinating the guests of Xinyue Hotel.
This is simply a slap in the face of Crescent Hotel!
"Moreover, ordinary injuries won't make you like this... Let me guess, in order to suppress those bastards from the Nine Gates, you took the risk of opening the Nine Orifices Exquisite Box?"
"The most important thing is that you failed and were injured by the poisonous sting in the Nine Orifices Exquisite Box!"
Hu Ming nodded, clicked his tongue, and added.
The so-called Nine-aperture Exquisite Box is an ingenious thing created by the most famous craftsman during the Northern Song Dynasty in his later years.
The inside of the box is made of three thousand gold wires, but there is only one gold wire holding the inner lock.
If the person who opens the lock accidentally touches a golden wire, dozens of barbs and poisonous stingers inside the box will shoot out.
If it is stabbed by a poisonous thorn, the person who opened the lock will... be useless!
"That's right, this old guy is a lot older. If he insists on showing off his strength in front of those bastards, he will get himself involved..."
"His right hand...is fine for daily life, but most of his ability to explore caves with two fingers has been disabled. Gee, the Zhang family has half-impaired two fingers? How interesting!"
Yin Nanfeng snorted lightly, with a bit of schadenfreude, indicating that Hu Ming's guess was correct.
"You're quite old...Nan Feng, your mouth is as unforgiving as ever. It's only in front of Hu Ming that you can restrain your temper, right?"
Zhang Yueshan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
If you think about it carefully, it's not that Yin Nanfeng doesn't have a gentle side, it's just that all the tenderness he had was given to Hu Ming.
When dealing with others, Yin Nanfeng is still the cold and aloof eldest lady with a hint of evil...
"These are all trivial matters. Liang Wan has already helped me deal with them. The sequelae have been minimized. At least my daily life is no problem."
"Let's get down to business, Hu Ming, who are you taking these two children with?"
Zhang Rishan changed the topic and looked at the two embarrassed teenagers.
"What else could it be because of? The "treasure" left behind by your Buddha... I never thought that such things would be obtained by those guys..."
Hu Ming slapped the tape on the table with his backhand and looked at Yin Nanfeng: "Nanfeng?"
Before coming, Hu Ming had already communicated with Yin Nanfeng.
"It's all ready... wait!"
Yin Nanfeng nodded and called softly to the voice waiting outside the door.
Crunch…
The door was pushed open, and a lacquered wooden box was slowly walked in, placed on the table, and opened.
Inside is an honest machine, full of the unique sense of ancient vicissitudes of that era.
"Oh, ears! I still remember you!"
"After all these years, you're still single, right?"
"Actually, it's not that I can't understand it, Fatty. After all, who likes a woman who can even hear the movements of her own size?"
The fat man's mouth didn't slip away as always, he opened his mouth to speak.
"You...if it wasn't for the sake of the Second Master, I would have killed you long ago if you were such a fat ball..."
Shengsheng Luo suddenly became unhappy and glared at the fat man.
"See, uncle, you still have face!"
The fat man immediately became happy. As a result of his personality, he liked the way others hated him but could do nothing about him.
Vulgar and vulgar.
"Uncle Ming, should you ask him to leave, or should I ask him to leave?"
Yin Nanfeng took a breath, stopped his voice slowly, and said to Hu Ming with a smile.
"…Calm down, calm down, how big of a deal this is. He has the same virtues as his father, but he is a bit ungrateful. It’s not like you don’t know...speak slowly, please get out first!"
Hu Ming pinched his nose and tried to smooth things over helplessly.
Just the virtue of a fat man...
This is such a smooth talk. If he hadn't been as tough as his father, he might have been beaten to death on the street one day.
"Well... how about you guys chat first while my good brother and I listen to the contents of the tape?"
The teenagers who had been waiting for a long time could not wait any longer and took advantage of the gap to interrupt a few of them.
"I almost forgot about the real thing!"
The fat man slapped his head and started operating the machine directly
The operation of the machines of the 1940s is somewhat different from the machines of today, but fortunately it is not difficult.
Not long after, Fatty had already taken care of everything.
"What we are about to hear now...may be Buddha's biggest secret!"
With a sigh, Zhang Yueshan pressed the start button.
"The biggest secret? Not necessarily, right? Shouldn't the biggest secret be the conspiracy back then?"
The fat man didn't have a good impression of the rumored Buddha, so he sneered and mocked.
"...Listen carefully."
There was no argument for what the fat man said. Zhang Rishan was speechless and could not refute it at all.
swish swish...
There was an unknown rustling sound coming from the tape.
Several people looked at each other.
The fat man frowned and simply started to move forward quickly.
It's a pity that it's still a rustling sound with no real meaning!
"Put it back and start from scratch!~"
At this moment, Hu Ming spoke in a deep voice.
"What?"
The fat man was stunned for a moment. Seeing Hu Ming's expression that didn't look like he was joking, he played the tape from the beginning again and looked longingly at Hu Ming who was listening with his eyes closed.
"It's the sound of wind...the sound of wind with a weird rhythm! It seems to contain a big secret Kai!"
After listening to the dull rustling sound, Hu Ming opened his eyes and said suddenly.
He could probably already guess what it was.
"Rumor? I seem to have remembered something... Buddha said that there is a great secret deep in ancient Tongjing, a great secret that no one has analyzed since ancient times!"
"This is also one of the reasons why Lord Buddha presided over the construction around Gutongjing!"
"I remember... the information left by Lord Buddha seems to have mentioned that this secret is contained in the rumors about Gu Tongjing!"
It was like a bolt of lightning flashed through Zhang Rishan's mind, and the memories of the past became clearer and clearer.
