Chapter 138 [Shen Wangyou] (Part 2)
Luo Lie made a gesture to him for a while, returned to the room, changed into dry clothes as quickly as possible, and then came to the living room to see who came to visit in the rain.
Before he could enter the hall, he could smell the fragrance of tobacco. Looking at the dim sky, he saw an old man sitting in the hall, holding a cigarette pole that never leaves his body in his hand, smoking quietly, and the blind man was accompanying him. The old man turned out to be Mu Sanshou, who dominated Huangpu.
Luo Lie would never have thought that Mu Sanshou, who lived in Huangpu, had traveled thousands of miles to come to Peking in person. The first thing he thought was that Mu Sanshou's arrival must be related to Ye Qinghong's disappearance. Luo Lie realized that the situation was much more serious than he had imagined.
Seeing Luo Lie returning, Mu Sanshou did not stand up, but just nodded to show off, saying hello to Luo Lie. He admired the calmness and wisdom of this young man.
Luo Lie smiled and said, "Master Mu, I really didn't expect it was you?" He looked around and did not see Lu Weilin's figure, so he said to the blind man, "Where is Lu Weilin? Does he know that the third master is coming?"
The blind man had not answered yet, but Mu Sanshou said, "I came here this time to see you."
Luo Lie smiled and said, "Has the Third Master eaten? Why not just make do with us?"
Mu Sanshou said: "Okay!"
The blind man said, "Old Zhang and Arnold are preparing, I'll go and have a look." The blind man still has eyesight and knows that Mu Sanshou has something to talk to Luo Lie alone. It's best to avoid it at this time.
Luo Lie sat down next to Mu Sanshou. When he saw him sucking clouds and vomiting mist, he subconsciously touched his pocket, but he felt empty. He remembered that he had just changed his clothes and did not carry the cigarette with him.
Mu Sanshou saw what he wanted to do and handed the cigarette rod in his hand to Luo Lie: "Try it?"
Luo Lie hesitated for a moment, took the cigarette holder and took a sip at Hetian Yu's cigarette holder. The spicy breath of tobacco made Luo Lie frown. The cigarette was so easy to rush. He dropped the cigarette holder and returned it to Mu Sanshou. Not everyone can smoke this pipe.
Mu Sanshou sighed and said, "Qinghong is missing!"
Luo Lie said: "We have searched for places she might have gone in the past few days, but we have not found any clues. Does the Third Master have any clues?" He believed Mu Sanshou must have come prepared.
Mu Sanshou shook his head slowly and said in a deep voice: "She must have had something wrong, and it almost fell into Prince Hong's hands."
"Prince Hong Zaixiang?"
Mu Sanshou nodded.
Luo Lie thought to himself, why did Mu Sanshou say this? Could it be that he already has evidence?
Mu Sanshou took a breath and said, "Although I have no evidence, I firmly believe that Zaixiang must have attacked her. If it were someone else, he would not have the courage or ability." His speech was always slow, and under any circumstances, he showed superhuman calmness and calmness.
Luo Lie did not know Prince Hong Zaixiang, but knew from the contact between him and Ye Qinghong that Ye Qinghong should have regarded Zaixiang as the enemy who killed his father. She gave her this to herself, and her intention was to use this as bait to lure Zaixiang out. If Zaixiang saw through Ye Qinghong's purpose, it would not rule out that he would take the lead.
Luo Lie thought for a while before saying, "This matter is illogical. Suppose Prince Hong Zaixiang is alive, he knows that Ye Qinghong wants to take revenge on him. He sees that the matter in Zhengjue Temple is a trap, why don't he choose to avoid it? What's the point of catching Ye Qinghong? Is it..." Luo Lie paused for a moment before saying, "There is really a secret hidden treasure hidden in this Summer Palace?"
Mu Sanshou knocked the tobacco pot on the sole of his shoes, and then said, "If not, why set up a plan? With Prince Hong Zaixiang's cunning, how could he easily get hooked?" He took out a picture from his arms and pushed it in front of Luo Lie: "This picture was left by the prince back then. It should be the secret place. According to the marked place, the entrance to the secret place should be in Zhengjue Temple."
Luo Lie did not pick up the map immediately. This map should have existed for a long time, but Ye Qinghong never revealed it to him. It seems that Ye Qinghong initially only wanted to use them to lure Prince Hong Zaixiang out, but did not want to expose the secret place. If Ye Qinghong hadn't suddenly disappeared, Mu Sanshou might not have come to Peking, and would not have offered this treasure map on his own initiative.
Luo Lie said meaningfully: "San Master, can you please leave such an important thing to me?" But I understood in my heart that Mu Sanshou might not show this trump card until it was absolutely necessary.
Mu Sanshou said calmly: "There is nothing more important in my heart than Qinghong's peace. In fact, I don't agree with her to take revenge. When will the revenge be revenge?"
Luo Lie felt quite different. Such a hero can actually say things that are light on grudges. I wonder if it is because of his mind or because of his age?
Mu Sanshou said: "The wealth left by the prince is enough to Qinghong to enjoy his whole life, but this child is too strong."
Luo Lie said: "San Master gave me this picture, are you asking me to dig a secret treasure?"
Mu Sanshou nodded and said, "I can't bear to let my child go, but I can't trap the wolf. Prince Hong's cunning is far beyond your imagination. If he thinks this is just a complete scam, he will not show up easily, but if you really dig out the secret hiding, then he will not be able to jump out and fight. Only by finding him can you find out Qinghong's whereabouts."
"Even if there is this picture, we just need to dig it out in what year or month."
Mu Sanshou said calmly: "You don't have to worry about human resources. I will make arrangements. When you need people, just tell Lu Weilin."
Luo Lie nodded, and he put away the picture: "But even if I dug out the secret treasure, how can the news be transmitted to Zaixiang?"
Mu Sanshou owed Luo Lie and said, "I have a way to let him know."
Luo Liexin said that since you have a way to let him know, can't you find Zai Xiang's hiding place? Mu Sanshou obviously still has a lot of things hidden from him. Luo Lie said: "I hope Mr. Mu will explain the matter more clearly. What do you want us to find?"
Mu Sanshou pondered for a while, seemed to hesitate, and finally said: "A bronze tripod."
Luo Lie was secretly wondering why a mere copper tripod attracted so much attention. He suddenly remembered the information about the Nine Tripods that Ma Boxuan had mentioned before. The ultimate goal of Ma Boxuan was to find clues to the Nine Tripods from the Yu God Monument. He had entered the Nine Netherworld Secret Realm, which was the only one who witnessed the Yu God Monument with his own eyes. He could recite the inscription of the Yu God Monument without word of mouth, but the meaning of it was obscure and difficult to understand, and he still could not understand the content.
Luo Lie thought to himself, wondering if the bronze tripod mentioned by Mu Sanshou and the nine tripods mentioned by Maqu were the same?
Mu Sanshou said: "Zaixiang is a man who is very suspicious and likes to do everything himself. If he had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would not believe that he had found the secret treasure. As long as the bronze tripod appears, he will definitely come and will definitely come to you."
Luo Lie suddenly felt a stern inside. From Mu Sanshou's story, it can be inferred that Ye Qinghong was probably captured by Zai Xiang. Since Prince Hong Zai Xiang robbed Ye Qinghong without knowing it, this person's ability must be extraordinary. Although Mu Sanshou gave him this treasure map, what remains unchanged is to use himself as bait. For Ye Qinghong and for the original promise, he would put the entire team in danger again. Luo Lie not only hesitated, not because of himself, but because of his friend. As the leader of this team, he must be responsible for the safety of everyone.
Mu Sanshou still didn't stay for dinner. Before leaving, he remembered something and whispered to Luo Lie: "Save Qinghong, except for the bronze tripod, everything in the secret store belongs to you."
Luo Lie said: "There are more than a thousand bronze tripods in this world. How can I know which bronze tripod is the third master mentioned?"
Mu Sanshou said: "Jizhou tripod!"
What surprised Luo Lie was that the picture Mu Sanshou gave him was almost exactly the same as the one left by Zhou Xiaodie. However, this picture was specially stamped with a big seal in the blank space in the backyard of Zhengjue Temple. This seal destroyed the coordination of the entire picture, but it also clearly stated that the secret entrance should be within the scope of the seal.
Luo Lie told several friends about Mu Sanshou's conditions. Zhang Changgong looked at the treasure map. Although he couldn't understand it very well, he intuitively believed that since the matter was related to Ye Qinghong's life, Mu Sanshou should not lie.
Arnold heard that he had money and his eyes were shining. He heard that the valuable secret hiding was under the garden, and he was even more passionate. Without hesitation, he was the first to raise his hand and bait. It was worth taking some risks for the secret hiding.
The blind man, who has always loved money and lives, showed inconsistent reason in this matter. In the blind man's opinion, Mu Sanshou's words may not be credible. He had no reason to make it easier for him to save the secrets left by Prince Rui.
Arnold said: "Are you saying that this picture fake? If it is true or not, let's dig it out and see? For us, it will take a little more time and there will be no big loss."
Zhang Changgong returned the treasure map to Luo Lie and whispered: "I don't know this Mr. Mu, but he should be a powerful figure, depending on his behavior."
The blind man said, "It's not just amazing. He covers the sky with his hands in Huangpu, calls the wind and rain, and stomps his feet, and the entire French Concession will shake three times." He has a deep understanding of Mr. Mu's power, and it is precisely because of this that he believes that Mr. Mu will not give them a big gift for no reason.
Arnold said: "Ye Qinghong is missing. Isn't Ye Qinghong his goddaughter?"
The blind man said disdainfully: "Ye Qinghong is not so easy to be caught. Since we helped her with things, she would leave the matter and stand by and watch. I don't think this matter is ruled out that the two of them have a double act."
Zhang Changgong and Arnold said at the same time: "Double act?"
