Chapter 266 267 She Country!

in the private room.

"Come on! Let's celebrate the successful conclusion of this trip abroad."

"I also respect Hu Ye, Jin Ye, and the big brother for showing me face, and give me Wang Yueban a face!"

At this time, Wang Yueban raised his wine glass, and raised it to Wu Xie and others with emotion.

"Come on! Cheers!"

The five of them were having a good time while eating boiled mutton and drinking some wine.

"Fatty, someone is looking for you outside."

After drinking for three rounds, a friend who claimed to be Wang Yueban's younger brother, Grasshopper, came to him to sell something.

I saw that the visitor was timid, and carefully handed a box to Wang Yueban.

"Huh, is this...?"

Wang Yueban saw the box handed over by the other party, opened it, and found that it was a bronze bell, she was shocked, and hurriedly invited the visitor into the private room.

This is exactly the hexagonal bronze bell they have seen in the Lu Palace and the underwater tomb before, and it has a demagogic effect.

"Master Hu, Lord Jin, you are experts in this field, can you give me your palm?" After Wang Yueban asked the man to sit down, he gave the things to Hu Bayi and the others for inspection.

Hu Bayi gave Da Jinya a look when he heard the words, and the latter immediately understood.

"Let me see!"

Da Jinya took the bronze bell, his face changed slightly, and he recognized it as a bronze bell from the Western Zhou Dynasty at a glance.

"Fat Master, my name is Lao Ma, and Grasshopper introduced me to you, saying that your price is fair!"

"Are you watching this acquisition?"

The old horse looked very depressed, and there was always a trace of nervousness in his eyes.

"Old Ma, I can accept your item, but I want to know the origin of this item, otherwise you should take it back."

Fatty Wang pointed to the bronze bell, and asked the old horse in an unquestionable tone. He seemed to want to know the origin of this thing.
After listening to Fatty Wang's words, Mr. Ma became nervous, his eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look at them.

"Masters, I collected this thing from the countryside!" After a while, he casually made an excuse, trying to fool him.

"..."

"My fat man has been in the antique industry for so many years, do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? You can buy this thing in the countryside?"

Wang Yueban looked at the old horse and shook her head, expressing that she didn't believe his words at all.

Hu Bayi, Wu Xie and the others also looked at this guy and said nothing, obviously they didn't believe it either.

Seeing the embarrassing scene, Da Jinya rolled his eyes and said, "Let's do it! I'll buy your thing at a high price, as long as you tell us where it comes from, do you think it's suitable?"

"Really?"

"Like a fake replacement!"

"Okay! Then I won't hide it from you."

Lao Ma saw that these people exposed his lies and offered a high price, so he obediently told the origin of the bronze bell.

Lao Ma told Wu Xie, Hu Bayi and others that he and his friend Lao Itching went to Qinling to hunt for treasures.

One night, the two of them came to a cliff of hundreds of meters while walking.

They also found an altar on the cliff, with a bronze tree on it, and the bronze tree seemed to grow out of the ground. The tree had to be as high as a hundred meters, and there was a gap in the root, which was bottomless.

The two of them were overjoyed immediately. They both thought that they had found the treasure this time, so they lit the torch on the altar and started looking for the treasure...

……

"Hey! What are you talking about? Are you telling a story here?!"

After Wang Yueban finished listening, she knocked on the table with disbelief, and looked at the old horse without concealing her threat.

"What you said is too mysterious, a bronze tree more than 100 meters high!? According to the ancient technology level, it is impossible to complete."

Wu Xie shook his head, also unwilling to believe everything the old horse said.

"Wu Xie, Xiaopang, there are so many wonders in the world, I think it's a bit believable, maybe they really encountered a giant bronze tree."

At this time, Hu Bayi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, and he immediately concluded that what Lao Ma said should be true.

In fact, all of this was arranged by Aning, in order to lure Wu Xie and others to Qinling Shrine.

"The true and false things have yet to be verified, what else have you found?"

Wang Yueban thought for a while in doubt, then looked at the old horse again and asked.

"Yes! I found some pieces of jade at the time, but then I was arrested and imprisoned for two years before I came out. Now I just want to rely on this bell to turn myself over."

The old horse looked ashamed, and looked at Hu Bayi cautiously, thinking that this person believed in him and could find a breakthrough in him.

"Okay, okay, the fat man took it!"

Wang Yueban thought about it, and immediately transferred the money to Lao Ma.

Lao Ma also left excitedly after receiving the money.

"Naive, Mr. Hu, do you feel that there is something wrong with this old horse?"

Holding the bronze bell, Wang Yueban was extremely depressed.

He has been in the antique business for so many years, so he basically wouldn't do such a loss-making business, but this time for Wu Xie, he really fought hard.

"I don't think this old horse is acting. He looks a bit evil. Besides, the bell has appeared in Qixinglu Palace in the tomb under the sea. Now there is another Qinling. There must be some kind of connection between them."

Wu Xie frowned and sorted out what happened before.

"Naive, but I think the old horse is mentally ill, and it is very likely that he has deceived us, so stop thinking about it!"

"By the way, Lord Jin, did you see the origin of this broken bell just now?" Wang Yueban asked about Da Jinya this time.

"Pang, this is not a broken bell, but a good thing!"

"Jin Ye, did you see anything?" Wu Xie asked impatiently after hearing the words.

"This thing is really strange. I have seen many bronzes, but I have never seen anything like this."

Da Jinya smiled, and continued to look at the bronze bell without raising his head. After studying for a long time, he couldn't remember where he had seen this kind of bronze bell.

"I'm not quite sure what the origin of this thing is. Regardless of the material, craftsmanship, and degree of weathering of this thing, it can be seen that it is an ancient thing."

"I can infer that this is a bronze vessel from the early Western Zhou Dynasty, and it may be related to the legendary She (she) state."

"Jin Ye, She Guo is...?"

Everyone is puzzled.

"Oh, She Kingdom was a small country that existed between the present Chanxi and Hubei in ancient times. It has disappeared 2000 years ago. There are many myths and legends about the existence of She Kingdom."

"In the strange book "Shan Hai Jing", it is recorded that She is a homonym for snake, so it is also called the country of snakes. They will pay homage to a totem with a human face and a snake body."

"So this is ah!"

Wu Xie listened very carefully.

After eating, Wu Xie greeted everyone and left in a hurry.

"Hehe, big brother, Mr. Hu, naivety is just like this! Don't mind!"

Wang Yue smiled apologetically, he was afraid that Wu Xie's action would offend Hu Bayi and the others.

"It's okay! I understand! Young people!" Hu Bayi and the others waved their hands, not caring at all.

"Come on! Little brother, let's continue!" Fatty Wang put his arms around Wang Yueban's shoulder and smiled.

……

After returning home, Wu Xie searched through the ancient books, and after three days, he finally determined the location of the She Kingdom mentioned by Da Jinya.

He had a vague feeling in his heart that there should be an unexplainable connection between She Kingdom and Lu Palace and the Undersea Tomb, so he planned to ask Wang Yueban to go to Qinling to find traces of She Kingdom.

When Wang Yueban heard that Wu Xie was going to Qinling, she nodded and agreed without any hesitation. Afterwards, Wang Yueban asked Hu Bayi and the others if they were interested in going?

The result disappointed him. Hu Bayi and the others refused to agree, saying that Qinglong Pavilion had many things to do and they didn't have time.

Ok!These are actually what Ye Haochu ordered Hu Bayi and the others to do, to tell them not to go with Wu Xie, but to let Wu Xie go by themselves!

Otherwise, how to hone Wu Xie Xiaotian's ability!
With Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang's current fighting ability, a small bronze shrine is easy to catch!

…………

After tidying up, Wu Xie and his wife drove to Qinling to look for Sheguo.

"Hey, these cheaters know how to eat the fat man's line!" When they got off the car halfway to eat, Wang Yueban started to play the glory of the king.

"Fatty, we still have business to do! Do you still have time to play games? Hurry up and finish your meal so you can go on your way early."

Wu Xie glared at the guy angrily.

"Don't worry, the ancient tomb can't run away, it's not too late to eat after I win a round."

Wang Yueban pretended not to hear it, and had a great time playing alone.

Wang Yueban really explained what it means to have food and love to play, people are addicted to food!

"Fatty, watch your words and deeds!"

Wu Xie looked at him seriously, then patted Wang Yueban with his hands.

"Forehead?"

It wasn't until this time that Wang Yueban realized that there was also a group of people sitting at the next table, and those people were Uncle Tai's group, who were going to Qinling to touch gold.

And the conversation between these two idiots was just overheard by Uncle Tai, so Uncle Tai winked, and his subordinates came over immediately, wanting to find out the details of Wu Xie and the two of them.
