Twenty years ago.
At that time, there was a tomb robbing team that no one knew, but whose performance, skills, and standards were superb. They explored almost all the mysterious ancient tombs in Country C.
Most of them rob the grave not for the treasures in the tomb, but just for the excitement.
They pride themselves. The implication is the underground walker.
And I am also one of them. Lao Tai, Guang Ge, and He Lao Wu are the other three members.
At that time, I was looking for Ling'er; because Ling'er's spiritual power became extremely unstable during that time, she was afraid of injuring me, so she hid alone. This has already been said before.
Old Tai and Brother Guang are looking for the most powerful big zongzi and then fighting against it; Heilao Wu is the most normal one, for the various treasures under the ground.
The four met in the same ancient tomb because of chance; they didn't know each other because they wanted to control each other to death; and they fled together because they were too big to disturb the ghosts in the tomb... In short, it was a life of nine deaths.
Finally, Heilao Wu saw a business opportunity.
"Unexpectedly, every fellow Taoist is a first-class hero, why don't you form a team?"
Brother Guang touched his chin: "It's boring to be alone, it's a group!"
Old Tai touched his chin: "This bald head is also looking for Zongzi? It's a group!"
Me: "Then what, whatever, whatever."
The acquaintance and encounter process of the local people is so simple and casual. Later, in various tomb explorations, they also experienced a lot of nine deaths together. Although everyone has a very unique personality, and sometimes even tit-for-tat, they can be regarded as sympathetic and empathetic.
Until the last time.
That day.
Hei Laowu took a drawing on the table: "This is it! An ancient tomb of a mysterious tribe patriarch!"
Old Tai took a look and said lightly: "One is not a royal family, two is not a nobleman, and three, even if it is a tribal chief, it is still a mysterious? Nothing is recorded, is there still a need to go?"
"Hey." Hei Laowu let out a contemptuous laugh.
Old Tai frowned: "What are you laughing at?"
Hei Lao Wu said indifferently: "You all say that you are a stinky zombie, don't you know anything! Don't you ask what mysterious tribe it is?"
"Yeah." Old Tai nodded, "Then I will ask what mysterious tribe it is. So what is it?"
"The mysterious tribe of the longevity!" Hei Lao Wu said excitedly.
Old Tai's face changed: "What? You said it was a longevity?"
"Right!" Hei Laowu said triumphantly, "Why, are you tempted? Have you heard of it too?"
"Uh, no, I will tease you." Lao Tai turned his face and laughed, "Hahaha! What the hell, I have never heard of it."
Hei Lao Wu: "..."
Hei Lao Wuyi turned his head and said, "I am too lazy to care about your old man, hey, Photon, Hu Tian, have you two heard of it?"
Brother Guang, who was reading the recipe, replied without raising his head: "To be honest, I really haven't heard of it. Who did you buy this news with? Gossip?"
Hei Lao Wu: "..."
I couldn't bear it, and I said, "That..."
Hei Lao Wu got excited, turned to me, stared at me and asked, "Xiaotian, have you heard of it?"
I smashed my mouth: "It seems, there is no... But I would like to listen to it in detail."
Hearing what I said, Hei Laowu nodded silently: "I just said, you look much more reliable than them!"
"Cut!" From the other two directions came the inconsistent disdain of Brother Guang and Lao Tai.
I was amused: "Are these two really grown-ups? How do they look like children."
"You better talk about it first." I said to Hei Lao Wu.
"Okay!" Hei Lao Wuyi sat down and said, "For Xiaotian's sake, I will tell you about it."
"It doesn't matter if you tell it or not." Lao Tai said leisurely, lying on the recliner.
"What is the longevity? Is it ginseng essence? By the way, do you want to drink some ginseng soup tonight?" Brother Guang wiped his set of tableware and said lightly.
Hei Lao Wu said angrily: "No one wants to drink the ginseng you cut with that zombie knife! Okay, stop talking, I'm going to start talking!"
"Oh."
Heilao Wu took a deep breath and said, "Jangsheng people are a kind of people with extremely long life span."
"How long is it to live forever? Have you eaten Tang Seng?" Old Tai asked coldly.
Heilao Wubai glanced at him and said, "I won't live forever, but the people there live for about five to six hundred years."
"That's not too long, it's not as long as the zombies have lived. If the zombies don't meet me, they can live for thousands of years!" Old Tai continued.
"And me." Brother Guang said with a cold light on the tableware in his hand.
Heilao Wuyi's face was black: "You guys, are you listening to me seriously?"
"You speak, you speak." Both of them sneered.
Hei Lao Wu rolled his eyes and continued: "I know, you must have a question in your heart now. That is why there has never been news about them in history."
"Uh, uh!"
"Very well, I also have this question. And I don't know the answer." Hei Lao Wu said lightly.
Old Tai, Brother Guang, including me, all three of them have a single face: "???"
"Hey." Hei Laowu smiled triumphantly, "but I'm sure that this news is true. Because of this news, I didn't spend a small amount of money, but a big price!"
"Are you pitted?" We asked differently.
Hei Lao Wu: "... I knew you would say that, but when I told the person who sold this news to me, you wouldn't think so."
"Oh? Who is it?"
"Framed immortal!" Hei Laowu said.
"Fuck! That old guy who is black-hearted and pretending to be a fool?" I said in surprise.
Hei Lao Wu waved his hand indifferently: "You don't care if he pretends to be a god or a ghost, but the news we bought from him has never been missed, right?"
"That's true," I said, touching my chin.
"Yes, we learned how many tombs of royal families and nobles from him, aren't they all clues to us!"
"Yes, and every time you come out, you have to divide the things brought out of the tomb into half. A profiteer!" I angrily said.
"Um... This is not the point, this is just the trading conditions. The most important thing for me is the profit and trading conditions. Now the key is this information this time, which is really valuable." Hei Laowu said excitedly.
"How valuable is it?" I asked, seemingly interested.
"You know, the longevity of the longevity clan is not inborn, but comes from a treasure in their clan, the longevity bead! It is the function of the longevity bead that allows people in the clan to live so long." Five explained.
"Wait! There is a question! How could the longevity tribe perish if there were longevity pearls? Where does the tomb come from if it does not perish? Why should we go if there is no tomb?" I asked.
"Who said there is no tomb. Yes, there are longevity beads to ensure that they live longer, but longevity and death are two different things. A person who can live for a hundred years, if he encounters curses, disasters, etc., Hang up whenever you want! The longevity pearls only help them ease the aging speed of their bodies, but do not give them the ability to immortality. Therefore, the longevity clan will also perish." Hei Lao Wu explained.
"So what natural disasters and man-made disasters did they encounter?" I asked curiously.
"Plague." Hei Laowu said with a flash of cold eyes.
"Plague?" I was taken aback.
"Yes. A sudden plague took the life of most of the Changsheng tribe. The last young people built a hidden mausoleum when their lives were dying, and buried the bones and longevity pearls of the longevity tribe. Inside, no one knows." Hei Lao Wu said lightly.
"Tsk tsk." I sighed for a while, "it's still very miserable."
"This information was sold to me by Immortal Jieda for a price of 30 million!" Hei Laowu said.
"Fuck! You are really willing!" I said in surprise.
Hei Lao Wu said indifferently: "I can't bear to let my children get caught up with wolves. If I can find the Longevity Pearl, its value on the market can increase my investment a thousand times!"
Old Tai on the side said lightly: "Why do you want so much money, and you can't spend it all."
"Yeah, so much money, do you want to buy vegetables? I can't spend it all." Brother Guang interrupted.
"Huh." Hei Laowu snorted coldly, "People have different ambitions, and they don't try to do anything. For me, the more money is naturally the better."
"Then can we not go? I want to take a leisurely time these days."
Brother Guang stretched his waist and said, "Recently there was a food show asking me to be a guest. I'm very interested."
Hei Lao Wu looked at Lao Tai and pointed to his belly and said, "Don't take any rest! Just your belly, you will almost catch up with the pregnant woman if you rest again."
"And you." Hei Lao Wuyi turned his head and looked at Brother Guang and said, "Just your TV show that has been mad at the eighteenth line. No one will watch it after you go. On the contrary, it will insult your reputation, right
Old Tai touched his stomach silently, thought for a while, and said: "The food provided by Photon is so good recently. It's time to move. Although I'm not interested in any longevity pearls at all, just in case What long-lived zombies can you meet, that would be very interesting."
Brother Guang also opened his mouth and said: "Eighteen lines of over-gas TV programs? No, no, no, so it’s really not good, fame is important! I’ll go look for zombies too. Although I’m not interested in any longevity beads, Why do people live so long? One hundred years is already very long and very boring."
"Everyone has their own ambitions, what do you care about so much!" Hei Lao Wubai gave him a glance, "Maybe after I get the longevity pearl, I will change my mind, I will not sell it, I will keep it. By your side."
"But you don't have any money anymore, so do you want to live in poverty for five hundred years? I think it's OK." Guang Ge said quietly.
"I think it's okay." Old Taishen made up the knife.
"You guys!" Hei Lao Wu was speechless, but after a while, he said angrily: Well, I don't care about you. After all, I still need your help! I can't find the longevity pearl alone! "
"Hey, right!"
"That's all right, let's go." I said lightly.
Although I think the possibility of Ling'er appearing in that kind of place is really low, even if it's not for Ling'er, it's okay to take a risk for the three people in front of you.
But I didn't expect that this time the risk would be really worthless. (End of this chapter)
