Tomb raiding: Start with a proficiency panel

Chapter 6: An Initial Understanding of the Shadow Guards

Zhou Nanbei took the paper, glanced at the number on it, and then put it into the Yin-side cave space.

Then he looked up at Zhao Xuan.

"I understand, thank you, Grandpa Zhao."

Zhao Xuan waved his hand slightly: "That's good. You and this girl can go first."

The old man and Old Man Zhou talked for a while.

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly, and at that moment, Sheng Shengman also walked over.

After picking Zhou Nanbei up.

He nodded to Zhao Xuan: "Elder Zhao, then I'll take Xiao Nanbei and leave now."

Done.

He then headed back the way he came, and Zhao Xuan watched the two walk away into the distance.

Then he turned around.

Looking at Zhou Youfu's tombstone, Zhao Xuan laughed and scolded, "Zhou Shoucai (nickname), I told you to take it easy!"

Take it easy,

You wouldn't listen to a word, and now look what happened! A dignified expert in the Transformation Realm died before even reaching a hundred years old.

It's embarrassing to even tell anyone.

Talking,

The old man, a veteran of countless battles, suddenly had tears welling up in his eyes.

.........

The scene shifts to the perspective of "Sheng Sheng Man".

Zhou Nanbei was held in Sheng Shengman's arms, and he thought of Zhao Xuan, whom he had just met.

So he looked up and inquired about the sound of the voice.

"Sister Man, who is this Grandpa Zhao?"

Why was he hiding in front of his grandfather's grave?

Sheng Sheng Man shook her head slightly: "I don't know much about her, I only know that Zhao Lao's public identity is the head of the 'Bajiquan Martial Arts School' in China."

He is also the 22nd generation successor of Bajiquan.

As for why Old Zhao was hiding in front of Grandpa Zhou's grave, after our conversation just now...

The older sister had some guesses,

But I don't know if it's right.

Zhou Nanbei listened quietly.

Seeing this, Sheng Sheng Man didn't keep her in suspense any longer: "Little Nanbei, do you still remember Old Zhao's invitation?"

Join the secret guard?

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly:

"Yes, I remember."

"It's good that you remember. My sister heard about the Dark Guard organization from a senior member named Zhang Rishan at the New Moon Hotel."

This is an institution subordinate to the state.

They were specifically responsible for some of the secret affairs of the Huaxia Kingdom.

It is a gathering place for masters of traditional Chinese martial arts, and a significant portion of these individuals are distributed across various mountain ranges throughout China.

They guard the medicinal herbs in these mountains.

Therefore, based on her sister's guess, Old Zhao should be the one guarding this Greater Khingan Mountains region.

After all, this mountain range is rich in medicinal herbs, and even in the vast country of China, this mountain range is a very important place.

This is probably why Old Zhao had the time to hide at Grandpa Zhou's grave and remember him.

Zhou Nanbei was somewhat stunned upon hearing this. After searching his memory, he said, "Sister Man, have you been deceived? I remember all the mountain ranges..."

There are troops stationed and patrolling there.

Sheng Shengman chuckled softly, "Little Nanbei is so adorable."

The army has guns,

A head-on clash with a dozen or so well-trained military squads would be fatal even for a martial arts master of the Transformation Realm. However, at night, the army is not as agile as a martial arts master.

Moreover, the mountain range is so vast that even a master of internal energy would have a hard time finding him if he plunged into it.

And that is why

The reason why those secret guards are stationed in various locations.

Zhou Nanbei heard this.

"So, does that mean Grandpa Zhao is the garrison commander of the Greater Khingan Mountains?"

I'm not entirely sure about Sheng Sheng Man either.

"My sister was just guessing whether Old Zhao was actually stationed in the Greater Khingan Mountains."

My sister isn't sure either.

Because my older sister only had a vague understanding of the secret guards, and besides, this was the first time she had ever heard of them.

Old Zhao belongs to the secret guards.

.........

As they spoke, the two returned to the courtyard.

.........

The camera pans back to Zhao Xuan.

Zhao Xuan had already wiped the tears from his face.

Looking at Zhou Youfu's tombstone in front of me.

He solemnly promised, "Zhou Shoucai, don't worry, as long as I live,

Nanbei, that little guy,

"Just one more day and I won't be bullied."

After saying that, he glanced at the vibrating keypad phone in his arms and left with a single sentence.

"Old Zhou, I'll come see you again next time."

Done.

Then it took eight steps to chase away the cicadas and disappeared into the valley in the blink of an eye.

.........

The scene returns to the courtyard.

Zhou Nanbei and Sheng Shengman sat facing each other, a pot of tea on the table.

There was a cup in front of each of them.

"Little Nanbei, come back to Beijing with your sister tomorrow."

How was it?

After a brief moment of thought, Zhou Nanbei nodded in agreement.

"it is good."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Shengman's lips curled into a slight smile.

He then talked to Zhou Nanbei about the Crescent Hotel.

…………

Although Zhou Nanbei knew that the Crescent Moon Hotel was ostensibly a hotel,

But it is actually an auction house.

But the TV series only touched on it briefly, so he didn't know much about it. Now, he's willing to talk about it.

He was able to listen patiently.

Of course, he was also particularly curious about the Crescent Hotel.

……

It was past six o'clock in the evening.

Zhou Nanbei and Sheng Shengman were preparing to eat in the room.

Sheng Shengman carried the dishes in.

After placing it on the table, she patted her delicate hands.

"Alright, Little Nanbei."

Let's eat.

As he was about to sit down, he suddenly noticed Zhou Nanbei looking around, searching for something on the table.

"Little Nanbei, what are you looking for?"

Zhou Nanbei spread her hands: "Sister Man, there are no chopsticks."

Sheng Sheng glanced at the table and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"I'll go get it right away."

As she turned to leave, Zhou Nanbei stopped her.

"Okay, Sister Man, please have a seat. I'll go get it."

finished,

They disappeared from the spot.

Seeing this, Sheng Sheng Man didn't dwell on it, but went to the table to serve herself rice.

A bowl has just been served.

Then Zhou Nanbei suddenly appeared at the table.

He was also holding two pairs of chopsticks in his hand.

"Little Nanbei, your spatial power is really convenient."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Nanbei first put down his chopsticks, then suddenly remembered what Sheng Sheng Man and Zhao Xuan had said earlier.

She couldn't help but ask, "Sister Man, how come you and Grandpa Zhao were able to sense my spatial power?"

After serving herself her meal, Sheng Sheng Man...

As she placed a bowl in front of Zhou Nanbei, she explained, "It's nothing, it's just that my sister and Old Zhao have had more contact with Grandpa Zhou's spatial power."

Therefore, I am quite familiar with it.

Of course, if Grandpa Zhou deliberately hides it, my sister definitely won't be able to sense it, so Xiao Nanbei doesn't need to worry about being noticed by others.

Once Xiao Nanbei is familiar with the power of space,

Then it can be controlled.

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly. He had said that the power of space sounded impressive, so how could anyone not be able to sense it?

"Little Nanbei, don't just stand there!"

"Eat your food quickly, and see if your sister's cooking is good."

As she spoke, she picked up a piece of meat with her chopsticks and gave it to Zhou Nanbei. Zhou Nanbei snapped out of her daze, looked at the gentle Sheng Shengman, and smiled in response.

"Sister Man, eat quickly too."

…………

10 PM.

After taking a bath, Sheng Sheng Man and Zhou Nanbei lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed).

However, the two slept separately.

Firstly, Zhou Nanbei does not want to reveal his Xuanwu bloodline for the time being.

After all, the tragic situation of the Zhang family was a stark reminder of what had happened to them.

Secondly, although Sheng Sheng Man's behavior reassured Zhou Nanbei, Zhou Nanbei, who was an orphan in his previous life,

It's hard to trust a person.

At least in Zhou Nanbei's world, the phrase "love at first sight" will never exist.

Yes, only after the passage of time...

The accumulated feelings.

So before "Sheng Sheng Man" truly opened his heart and allowed him to enter his inner world,

He wouldn't be in the face of "Slowly, Slowly".

Tattoos casually revealing the bloodline of Xuanwu (Black Tortoise).
