Chapter 1174: An urgent treasure hunt
There was one last question. He wanted to know Bai Hu's attitude towards Zhu Yawen.
Bai Hu seemed to have expected Lin Ran to ask this question.
She closed her eyes and said, "I think most people think that Zhu Yawen wants to take away the secret of treasure appraisal and make the family dominate."
"But I don't think so. Zhu Yawen probably just wants to lift this...curse."
She ended up using the word curse.
It can be seen that she is full of dissatisfaction with the secret skills she learned.
Even if she didn't give the book to Lin Ran, she would never pass it on to anyone else.
Lin Ran glanced at Bai Hu. She was not as indifferent as she seemed.
At least in her heart, she is a big sister who considers problems from other people's perspective.
In fact, among all the people in the Qilin Society that Lin Ran has come into contact with so far, there is not a single bad person in the true sense.
Tian Hai is timid, Bai Hu is aloof, Ma Zhen acts strangely, and Zhu Yawen only speaks half of his words.
Everyone has obvious characteristics.
"I'm leaving first."
"Remember to take the back door." Bai Hu finally confessed.
Lin Ran was holding two important treasures, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous while walking.
Fortunately, today the National Museum seems to be linking up with schools. In the museum, there are many students holding boxes and backpacks.
Lin Ran was similar in age to them and did not attract anyone else's attention.
After leaving the museum, he immediately hailed a taxi and went directly to Yanziwu.
Liu Jingfeng said he went to investigate the situation and should have returned.
When they arrived at his store, the store manager saw it was Lin Ran and quickly came up to help him move his things.
"Is Liu Jingfeng here?" Lin Ran asked.
The store manager shook his head: "He hasn't come back yet, but he told me that if it's you, you can enter his office at any time, and he also left a letter."
Lin Ran is someone Liu Jingfeng especially trusts.He is very cautious and will leave letters for himself, which must contain important information.
Lin Ran took the pottery figurine and entered his office.
Opening the letter on the table, it said that he and Huang Hao went to Gansu.
It happens to be where the Wang family tombs are located!
Could it be that the ancient tombs in the pottery figurines mentioned earlier refer to Wang Shixian's tombs?
It's all such a coincidence.
He continued to read below the letter.
Liu Jingfeng said that he had already guessed that he might not return to the capital.
If Lin Ran comes to see him, gather all the people from the archaeological team.
Go to Dingxi County in Gansu to contact a place called "Liuyin Village".
Everything was so coincidental that Lin Ran couldn't help but feel chills.
Is this fate?
Or is it the layout of a treasure hunt?
But now, there is no time to delve into it.
On Liu Jingfeng's desk, there is a roster with the addresses and phone numbers of Wang Jinpeng and others.
Lin Ran accepted the list and felt that it was not appropriate to stay here any longer, so he prepared to take a taxi and leave.
The store manager seemed to have figured out what he was thinking, and took the initiative to close the store and send Lin Ran back home.
"Mr. Lin, did something happen to Boss Liu?" the store manager asked with concern.
He naturally knew what kind of industry Liu Jingfeng was engaged in, and the dangers were self-evident.
In the past, it was originally said that after my career stabilized, I would no longer engage in grave work.
But after getting acquainted with Lin Ran, his visits to the grave did not decrease, but became more frequent.
The store manager is also a discerning person. He can see that Lin Ran's status in the team is getting higher and higher. Every time Liu Jingfeng encounters a problem that he cannot figure out, his first sentence is "What does Brother Lin think?"
Maybe this time, Liu Jingfeng knew that he would be in trouble and left a signal to Lin Ran in advance.
Lin Ran told him the content of the letter, and then said: "I did happen to find it, and the location is near Gansu, but I'm not sure whether it is where he is now."
Lin Ran knew everything about his companions.
As expected, the store manager showed a worried expression.
He didn't know how powerful the Treasure Hunting Association was, but he knew that it was certainly not an ordinary private organization that dared to challenge the authorities.
They, the local masters, have received more and more restrictions after the Cultural Relics Protection Law came into effect, and their scale is no longer the same as before.
If you encounter a treasure hunt, it will be very dangerous.
"Mr. Lin, please make sure Boss Liu is brought back from Gansu safely first!" the store manager said seriously.
It was confirmed that Lin Ran would go to Gansu, and the store manager believed that there must be a connection between the two.
Lin Ran actually hasn't been to the grave for a long time. During this time, he has been wandering around major cities, contacting aristocratic families and senior officials.
It was also a coincidence that I encountered Yuan Dynasty pottery figurines this time.
There is a high probability that the location marked on the piece of paper among the rap pottery figurines is the location where the pottery figurines were unearthed.
Such ancient tombs usually have tombs within tombs.
The treasure hunting party will smash the pottery figurines, and it is not as simple as trying to escape guilt.
There must be a mystery in it.
Lin Ran was sitting at home, looking at the pottery figurines.
The expression of the pottery figurine did not change, but Lin Ran still felt something was wrong.
He held his breath and touched the pottery figurines with his fingers.
Just when he was about to make a desperate move, an idea flashed through his mind.
Baihu said she could restore the pottery figurines to their original appearance.
There are many potholes on the pottery figurines.
There was obviously a mezzanine inside.
Perhaps, this is not the ultimate goal, but the goal of the treasure hunt has most likely been achieved.
After calculating the date, it happened to be the day when Huang Hao and Liu Jingfeng went to investigate.
Time is running out!We must leave quickly.
Lin Ran originally wanted to wait for Guan Yun to come back, so he had to leave him a letter.
Taking Guan Yun to the ancient tomb is better than letting him protect his family at home.
The rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.
Lin Ran felt that the date of settlement of the grievances with the Treasure Hunt Club was approaching.
Lin Ran immediately called the other members of Liu Jingfeng's team, except that Xu Yi was temporarily unable to go to Gansu with them due to physical reasons.
Everyone else readily agreed, and knowing that the boss was in danger, Wang Jinpeng even said he would set out tonight.
"Don't worry, the equipment needs to be ready." Lin Ran knew that the more anxious he was now, the harder it would be to solve problems when he encountered them.
In the past, Liu Jingfeng arranged the work of preparing tools.
Now, Lin Ran must take up this important role.
"Wang Jinpeng, accompany me to purchase props tomorrow." Lin Ran said, "We will set off the day after tomorrow."
"Why not go now?"
"You can't do anything now. Do you think it's as simple as just going to fight somewhere else?" Lin Ran said.
They are not using illegal means to deal with the Treasure Hunt Club.
They have a lot of weapons in their hands, and they have a large number of people, and they have the status of foreigners. In this era, they are full-fledged outlaws. Ordinary people can do nothing with them.
If you want to deal with them, you can only get ahead of them and take away the cultural relics in the tomb.
Lin Ran knew that the tomb had probably been robbed, but as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he couldn't give up.
We must not let any Chinese secrets fall into the hands of foreigners, especially the Neon people.
