At this moment, Chu Ling and Bai Wuji were in the living room on the first floor of Wang Haobo's villa. The living room was decorated with splendor. The ancient paintings hanging on the walls and some porcelain that looked very old at first glance showed that this Wang Haobo
He must be a person who likes antiques.
Any decoration in his home is worth a lot of money.
When Wang Haobo heard Chu Ling's question, he smiled while sitting on the sofa: "I understand what Miss Chu means. It is true that you and I have never contacted each other directly. I also entrusted my friends to find some capable people to help me with a little bit.
busy."
Small favor?
Chu Ling was confused, then patted her backpack: "Then what does Mr. Wang Haobo want this mirror for? Do you know the origin of the mirror?"
Wang Haobo shook his head and smiled: "The origin of the mirror? I don't know this. I only want it because another strange person I invited this time needs this mirror."
Does anyone else need it?
Upon hearing this, Chu Ling frowned, is it Du Youlan?
"Male or female?" Chu Ling asked.
"man."
man?
Bai Wuji frowned, suddenly feeling that his brain circuit was a little insufficient. Chu Ling was the same, and the two of them fell into silence for a while.
Wang Haobo stood up from the sofa at this time and said to Bai Wuji and Chu Ling: "Master Bai and Master Chu were the first to come. You will stay here tonight. When everyone is here tomorrow, I will take you
Go to the mountains."
Bai Wuji raised his eyebrows and didn't understand. He asked quickly: "Hey Mr. Wang, I think we should make it clear. Why did you come to us, other than to deliver a mirror?
Then who is the person who needs this mirror, and who helped you contact us. We are a little confused now."
Wang Haobo was stunned when he said this. He frowned and looked at Chu Ling and Bai Wuji with a little suspicion in his eyes. He subconsciously asked: "Are you Chu Ling and Bai Wuji from Yichuan?"
"That's right." Chu Ling nodded.
"Then there is no reason for you not to know. Alas, it may be that the friend I entrusted did something wrong. Then I will explain it to you in detail..."
Wang Haobo nodded. According to what he said, he is a person who loves ancient civilization very much. He was a businessman in the first half of his life and was worth a lot of money. Now, he no longer has much yearning for money. In the past five or six years, he has been focusing on himself.
My hobby is antiques.
Dongling is a strange and strange place. There have been rumors since ancient times that there is a large tomb underground in Dongling, but it is unknown who the owner of the tomb is. For thousands of years, countless tomb robbers have dug around in Dongling.
A lot of things were dug up and many strange legends were left behind.
But some people always say that the largest tomb in Dongling has not been discovered yet.
Not long ago, when Wang Haobo was developing Dongling Mountain, he dug a deep pit, a bottomless pit. Preliminary exploration revealed that this hole should be a tomb. But because he has studied these things for many years, Wang Haobo knew that
You need to find professionals to explore the tomb, and the ordinary people under your command will definitely not be able to do it.
So I found Chu Ling and others.
I hope some capable people can help explore the tomb and extract the antiques that can be moved out of the tomb... Well, to put it bluntly, rich people hire people to rob tombs!
As for how he contacted Chu Ling, Wang Haobo said that firstly, he had heard about Chu Ling for a long time, and secondly, there was a professional person in his circle who helped contact him. As for the professional person, he helped contact Chu Ling two days ago.
After that, he disappeared and did not respond to any messages left by Wang Haobo in the past two days.
Then, Wang Haobo said who needs a mirror. It is said that the mirror is a magic weapon used to explore tombs. A master Wang Haobo hired said that although this tomb is not a tomb of serious evil, all the tomb chambers must be completely opened.
, this mirror is necessary. And all the reasons are recorded on a stone tablet...
"...I got the stone tablet eight years ago, and there are some records on it, all about the tombs that exist here in Dongling. It focuses on the mirror and the tomb I found. Of course, at first I was also because
This is why I came to Tangling. The person who needs the mirror is a friend I have known over the years, and the stone tablet is in his hands now. He will probably be here tomorrow."
After listening to Wang Haobo's narration, Chu Ling smiled and said, "So, Mr. Wang came to us not only for the mirror, but also to let us help you visit the tomb?"
Because Wang Haobo repeatedly said that he would take Chu Ling and the others down together after a few days, Chu Ling knew that this was what Wang Haobo meant.
"That's right. The person who contacted you two may not have made it clear about this matter. I'm really sorry."
"It's nothing, but I don't know much about tomb robbing. I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter." Chu Ling refused bluntly.
The first is that she really doesn’t know how to rob a tomb. Second, if you want to rob a tomb, you should find a tomb robber. Why did Wang Haobo specifically find her, a Taoist priest who catches ghosts? Is it possible that there is some secret in the tomb? In short, this person is very good.
It's suspicious. Chu Ling originally wanted to find Du Youlan. Since Du Youlan was not here, she didn't want to go into troubled waters too many times. Besides, she hunted ghosts not only to make money, but also to save people. And tomb robbers were probably leading a group of people to die. The concept is different.
"Haha, Miss Chu, don't refuse in a hurry. We agreed before that the mirror is two million. But if you are willing to go to the grave, I will give you an additional ten million."
After Wang Haobo finished speaking, Chu Ling's expression immediately stiffened.
Although she is a ghost hunter, she is only a girl in her early twenties. She will still be very excited when she hears the huge figures of money.
In fact, Chu Ling couldn't make much money in a year catching ghosts because the props were expensive.
Feeling that Chu Ling was a little tempted, Wang Haobo said with a smile: "No rush, Miss Chu can think about it, and I won't force anyone to do anything. But it's getting really late today, so why don't you two stay and rest and wait until tomorrow morning to make a decision?"
."
With that said, Wang Haobo turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged man with a mustache, and whispered a few words. The middle-aged man with a mustache came to Bai Wuji: "Mr. Bai, I will arrange a place for you two."
Bai Wuji nodded.
He went upstairs with Chu Ling and was arranged in a guest room in the villa.
Bai Wuji saw Chu Ling's absent-mindedness. When Xiao Hui left, Bai Wuji closed the door, but as soon as he closed the door, Chu Ling's true form appeared!
"Ah! It can't be done, it can't be done, it can't be done!" Chu Ling swooped down on the bed, her two cute little legs tapping the soft mattress back and forth. She turned around and looked at Bai Wuji: "Silly X, what are you talking about?
What should I do? A lot of money, ten million! Ah, why have my fortune been so good recently..."
Bai Wuji's face was covered with black lines. I really don't know how this girl can pretend to be aloof in front of others.
As for visiting the tomb.
Bai Wuji thought about it, standing at the window, looking down, and said: "But boss, that Wang Haobo has been talking for a long time, didn't you notice that in his words, the character Youlan seemed to have evaporated? Don't you?
Do you think it's strange? Besides, why is he visiting the tomb to find a Taoist priest?"
puff……
Chu Ling buried her face in the pillow and immediately lost her energy. She forced herself up and muttered in an aggrieved voice: "But...but that's 10 million."
"I also know it's 10 million, but...huh?" Bai Wuji was suddenly stunned and looked downstairs, speechless for a moment.
Chu Ling didn't pay attention to Bai Wuji, but repeatedly fought mentally.
Precisely because Chu Ling spent too much time dealing with ghosts, she actually cherished life more. After weighing the possible dangers and rewards of this operation, Chu Ling finally sighed and walked to Bai Wuji.
Behind him, he poked Bai Wuji's lower back with his finger: "Hey, silly X, go and talk to that Wang Haobo later. We'd better leave tomorrow. As for Youlan, we can only go back..."
Before Chu Ling finished speaking, Bai Wuji shook his head: "Forget it, boss, let's go rob the tomb."
"Ah? Why?"
"Look down." Bai Wuji turned around and pointed downstairs.
Chu Ling tilted his head and glanced down with his cute big eyes. When he came in before, there were three bodyguard-looking people outside the villa, but now... there are at least thirty.
There were also a few people playing with firearms, who wiped them repeatedly for fear that Chu Ling and Bai Wuji upstairs wouldn't see them.
"They..." Chu Ling raised her eyebrows.
"It's a clear threat to us."
"Oops! Threatening me?" Chu Lingxiao suddenly got angry and reached out to Bai Wuji: "Give me the old ghost box."
"What do you want to do?"
"Let the old ghost create a ghost to hit the wall or something to scare them."
Bai Wuji shook his head: "No, that old guy Wang Haobo has been studying these things all year round and convening people to rob tombs. You see, he seems like an ordinary businessman. I suspect he is not that simple. Besides, there are at least thirty people downstairs.
If you don't get one, both of us will be shot. It will be more trouble than a ghost."
Bai Wuji was scared. He was never scared of ghosts, but when he saw someone with a gun in his hand, he was really scared...
But this does make sense.
"What do you think, promise him?" Chu Ling stared at Bai Wuji with big eyes.
Bai Wuji thought about it and said, "I agree for now, but be careful when entering the tomb."
"Oh, then I'll go downstairs..."
Chu Ling suddenly said that she wanted to go downstairs.
Bai Wuji was a little confused and asked curiously: "Hey, no, what are you doing downstairs? Didn't you just say that, my boss, please don't be impulsive. We are here to catch ghosts, you are not a soldier."
Wang ran into the wrong place!"
"What are you talking about? It's a mess. I asked him to raise the price! Anyway, he agreed. Based on my more than ten years of experience in bargaining when buying things, the price he just raised obviously has huge room for improvement. In case everything goes smoothly in the end.
, I can still make a lot of money, hehe."
Chu Ling smiled and showed two cute little tiger teeth.
Then he ran downstairs happily.
Bai Wuji was petrified on the spot and was completely powerless to stop her. The longer we get along, the more we find that this girl's greed for money has already reached the limit.
The bored Bai Wuji sat on the big bed, took out his mobile phone, and wanted to see if Youlan had left a message. When he found out that there was no message, he took the initiative to send: I don’t know what you are doing, but you made a promise to Chu Ling and me.
, you should at least show up and answer the questions in your promise, right?
After saying that, put down the phone.
Putting down the phone, Bai Wuji began to close his eyes and rest his mind. But because Chu Ling was in a hurry to run out, and the villa was very quiet, there were sudden bursts of subtle crying in Bai Wuji's ears.
Very clear.
"What the hell?" Bai Wuji was stunned for a moment. He got out of bed and went out. He found that the crying was at the end of the corridor on the second floor. But the strange thing was that it was not a ghost this time, because there was no sinister energy. It seemed that someone was crying. It was
Who is it?
Bai Wuji curiously took a few steps forward and found a beam of light emerging from the door of a room at the end of the corridor, where the crying sound was.
