An accidental divination had caught Qi Tie's attention.
The little guy was also a great listener, making Qi Tie spend a lot of time talking.
"As for the Gold-looting Commandant, it is actually a famous sect among the grave robbers. Rumor has it that it was first established during the Eastern Han and the Three Kingdoms. It was established by the ambitious Cao Mengde to rob the tombs to obtain wealth and supplement the army's pay.”
"In terms of technique and ability, the gold-looting lieutenant is definitely the best in the tomb raiding industry, the first-class chief!”
Qi Tie smacked his lips and said,"That ability to divide gold and fix acupoints, as well as to look at mountains and rivers, is truly exquisite. Every orthodox gold-looting lieutenant is a first-class feng shui master.”
"So powerful?"
"That's right. You don't know…"
Before Qi Tie could finish his sentence, his eyes froze and he sighed.
He didn't know when a person had appeared in his small incense hall, standing at the entrance of the backyard, quietly listening to Qi Tie's eloquent speech.
The person was dressed in casual clothes, and there was a heroic air between his eyebrows. He was the head of the Nine Gates, Lord Zhang.
"Lord Zeng, I didn't know you were here. How old are you?”
"Who asked you to close early?"
"Come with me to the Second Master's house. I need you for something."”
"Do you need me? You don't think it's shabby to say this. A broken ship still has three pounds of nails. What kind of words are these?”
"So much nonsense!"
Lord Zhang glared at him. Qi Tie didn't argue anymore; instead, he lifted his robe and followed him.
At the same time.
Xu Nian had already returned to the hotel where he was staying. He was lying on the bed and rubbing the golden talisman hanging on his neck.
An ancient item like the golden talisman became brighter and darker the more it was used. It was crystal clear like a piece of black jade.
Xu Nian didn't ask much after walking through Qi Tiexui's incense hall.
Just from Qi Tiezui's fortune-telling skills, Xu Nian could roughly see some of the tricks of the Old Nine Sects.
In this era, the Old Nine Houses of Sand City had been very popular for a while. They monopolized all the ways of tomb raiding inside and outside Sand City. There were strict rules for the purchase, sale, and export of goods.
It was difficult for outsiders to reach out. The Old Nine Gates were entrenched in Sand City and would never tolerate any outsiders coming in to share this piece of cake.
To fight against the entire Old Nine Factions by himself?
Xu Nian shook his head. This method was too stupid and too time-consuming.
He had long had the idea of starting a family. As a gold-looting lieutenant, he shouldered the title of being the leader of gold-looting. If he had no soldiers or generals under him, it would be too shabby.
However, it was obviously inappropriate to start from Sand City.
Even if he could get through to Lord Zhang, Er Yuehong, and the others, it would not be easy.
Thinking of this, Young Master Xu sighed and took out a small white jade box.
This small white jade box was obtained by Xu Nian from the Bloody Corpse Tomb.
Upon closer inspection, he saw that the small white jade box was extremely exquisite. There was a complicated and exquisite seal on it, and there was also a small bulge.
After pressing it, the small white jade box popped open.
Xu Nian's eyes moved when he saw what was in the small box. He was surprised.
It was a yellowed silk scroll.
Xu Nian unfolded it carefully and took a closer look at it.
There was a blurry background pattern on it, which seemed to be a picture of birds and beasts, and there were all kinds of soaring patterns.
There was also a dense array of neatly arranged ancient characters.
Xu Nian frowned and glanced at it a few times, finding it difficult to read.
This method of recording was also known as the Eight Formations Calligraphy. It was one of the methods to hide secrets in calligraphy and painting.
In ancient times, this method was often used to convey military orders and special orders.
Xu Nian didn't start from the difficult part and directly identified it by looking at it.
With just one or two glances, he could see through the technique of this silk book. The name of an ancient tomb subconsciously appeared in his mind.
Seven Star Lu Royal Palace!
The picture on the silk book was outlined several times. From another angle, the words formed a fox face.
However, the abstract image of the fox face had no eyes, so it seemed a little hollow.
The rest of the items were meaningless to Xu Nian.
Xu Nian was extremely familiar with the location of the Seven Stars Lu King Palace.
The ancient tomb was there and would not run away. It would be the same no matter when he went there.
Xu Nian was not worried that someone would beat him to it. The thing he did not lack the most now was time.
