Tomb raiding: Intercepting Yin Xinyue and building a family of immortals

With Chen Yulou in charge, these second-in-commands were naturally easy to handle.

Sometimes they sit in the second-in-command position not because someone above them is suppressing them, but because their abilities only qualify them for that position.

If Chen the Blind had the choice, he would definitely spare no effort to join forces with others to kill the outsiders first, and then deal with each other behind closed doors.

Now that these three families have received help from the Su family, they are no longer in danger of being destroyed, and at that time they will no longer have the intention to resist Su Chen.

After all this turmoil, Su Chen finally managed to establish himself in Shanghai.

After Su Chen's explanation, Mrs. Yang finally understood what was going on and looked at Su Chen with a surprised expression.

"Now that this matter is settled, Chief Su should have nothing else to do. Why don't you stay in Shanghai a little longer so that I can serve you a little longer?"

As she spoke, she looked at Su Chen with a flirtatious gaze.

The latter nodded, his large hands groping her body as he spoke.

"We'll have to rely on you from now on. It's one thing for the antique business to be established here, but it's even more important for it to grow and thrive."

This all depends on Mrs. Xu's abilities. Su Chen thought his own abilities were quite good, but unfortunately, he was still far inferior to Mrs. Xu.

So during this time, he comforted Mrs. Xu.

After the antique shop officially opened, he embarked on his journey to leave.

In fact, Mrs. Xu had said before that she could support Su Chen.

But Su Chen was never the kind of person who wanted to stay in one place and live a stable life; he pursued an exciting life.

Under Mrs. Xu's unwilling gaze, they went upstream along the Yangtze River.

Wushan has always been shrouded in rain and mist, a place with steep and precipitous mountains. Even though the Goddess Peak is exceptionally beautiful, it still got the name Wushan.

We drove along the mountain road for a while, but the mountain mist completely blocked the way.

It looked incredibly dangerous. Although everyone had seen many perilous places, they couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature here.

The car stopped in a nearby town, and Chen Yulou spoke up.

"Duoling sent a message that no information related to Qingxi Ancient Town can be found here."

"That shouldn't be the case. How could such a big town be hard to find?"

Su Chen felt something was off and asked while eating at a roadside stall, but he didn't find it surprising.

It is said that a headless king is hidden in Wushan Mountain, and Qingxi Ancient Town is there to guard the tomb of the Wuyang King. It would be reasonable for him to dig up the tomb of the Wuyang King and not find it.

"But Chief Su can rest assured, Duoling and the others have certainly made some progress since they arrived a few days ago. They have already figured out what to do next, and they just need to wait for us to arrive."

Duo Ling, Gu Chen, and Lao Ma, each of them, if taken out individually, could stand on their own.

The reason I followed Su Chen was naturally because I could experience more things with him.

Hearing this, Su Chen became interested: "What clues did they find?"

"There."

Blind Chen pointed to a shop not far away. The shop looked ordinary and only sold some groceries.

The only surprising thing was that there was a small sandalwood coffin hanging in the shop, which looked like it had been specially lacquered, and the technique seemed quite good.

"There is?"

Su Chen felt that the small coffin was strange, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Chen Yulou stepped forward to explain, "That's the symbol of Honeycomb Mountain. Since the Ming Dynasty, forces like Honeycomb Mountain that forge hidden weapons have long since gone underground..."

The small coffin looked like a coffin, but if you looked closely, you would find some small holes in it.

This wasn't left by the builder to let the guy lying inside breathe; it was left from testing a hidden weapon.

This also shows that there are indeed some items in this store that you can't buy unless you can get the right code.

Seeing this, Su Chen became interested. After finishing his food, he led a few people over.

As soon as I entered the shop, I saw an old lady sitting in a recliner and a young man assembling a Luban lock.

The young man looked surprised when he saw several people come in, as if the shop rarely had good business.

"What would you like to order, gentlemen?"

"Stop joking, these are distinguished guests."

Before Su Chen could reveal his purpose, the old lady who was sitting suddenly stood up and spoke.

"Go down to the Tree Kingdom. These guests before us are truly distinguished guests."

"How did Grandma know we were honored guests?"

Su Chen was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised by the old lady's perspective. These words were not just random remarks; one only needed to look at the people around her to understand.

"This man walks with the stride of a dragon and the gleam in his eyes; each and every one of you is an outstanding individual. How could anyone not tell that you are with those others?"

The old lady's name was Xu Aoyu, and she was the head of the family in Fengwo Mountain.

She has been running this shop here for thirty years, and this young man is her successor, named Li Shuguo.

He is quite a talented young man.

Under the old lady's guidance, Su Chen learned that the clue that Duo Ling and the others had mentioned was actually the old lady in front of him.

As the head of Honeycomb Mountain, Xu Aoyu couldn't maintain her elder's demeanor at all after learning about Su Chen's name. She looked at the person in front of her with some embarrassment and spoke up quite decisively.

"Who along the Yangtze River doesn't know Chief Su's reputation? This old woman has no other thoughts than to let her apprentice follow you."

“Grandma Xu, you don’t need to say that to me. I came here this time for the Tomb of the Black Sheep King. You and Li Shuguo are both rare talents. How can I let him take risks with me?”

It wasn't that Su Chen thought Li Shuguo was bad, but the Wushan Mountain he was going to was very dangerous. Li Shuguo was, in the end, just a craftsman, and it would be irresponsible of him to take him there.

Who would have thought that his refusal would win Xu Aoyu's favor, and the old lady would no longer hide it.

"Chief Su is a kind man. I understand your concern for Li Shuguo, but if you want to find the ancient town of Qingxi, which is separated from the past, you really need him to lead the way. He has been to the ancient town."

"Please...Please rest assured, Chief Su, I will definitely not hold you back."

Li Shuguo seemed to be facing Su Chen for the first time, and he spoke nervously, stammering as he spoke.

Since things had come to this point, it would be rather tactless for Su Chen to continue refusing. So he simply clasped his hands in a fist and took the initiative to speak.

“Since Granny Xu trusts me so much, I can’t let her down. If you don’t mind, we can go to Su Family Village together.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Aoyu shook his head and waved his hand.

"I'm too old to go, let my apprentice go instead."
