Long Hao, Wu Xie, Young Master Hai, and Chen Chengcheng separated after returning to Hangzhou.
He had four inheritances: Hair Mound, Gold Touching, Moving Mountain, and Removing Ridge. Many inheritances had not been completely melted. For example, Moving Mountain's most famous Red Casket Wonder Pill had not been developed yet.
In addition, he had to comprehend all kinds of secret techniques and digest the gains from this trip to the Seven Stars Lu Royal Palace. Long Hao explained profound things in simple terms every day and rarely went out.
After Wu Xie came back, he was still full of questions about Zhang Qi Ling's identity and the motives of Ah Ning and the others.
In addition, he had a villain named Chengcheng, who was also full of doubts about Zhang Qi Ling and had been instilling the idea that Zhang Qi Ling was not a good person into Wu Xie, which made Wu Xie upset.
"Wu Xie, I'm back! Come out and remember to send Young Master Hai and Chengcheng away. I have something to tell you.”
Therefore, Wu Xie brought Young Master Hai and Chen Chengcheng to West Lake to play. On the way, he used the excuse of going to the toilet to secretly meet Wu Sansheng.
Wu Sansheng told Wu Xie that the silk book they got was a fake. Both uncle and nephew suspected that Zhang Qiling had tampered with it.
"Third Uncle, that silver-edged roof hasn't been opened yet.”
After that, Wu Xie took out the Silver-edged Dragon Top and the key from the ancient tomb to study with Wu Sansheng.
"No, there are two layers of mechanisms on the top of the Silver-edged Dragon. Other than the key, you need a corresponding password to open it completely.”
Wu Sansheng took over the silver-edged wooden roof and examined it carefully. He had already given up and did not dare to open it easily.
At this moment, Wu Xie suddenly remembered that he had encountered a foreigner's corpse in an ancient tomb. A series of strange Arabic numbers had been printed on his belt.
As the saying goes, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Wu Xie did not hesitate at all and entered the password.
"Third Uncle, what is this? It looked like an ordinary Green-Copper item, not worth anything at all. How could King Lu Shang protect it so well?”
Wu Xie had made the right bet. He had successfully opened the password lock on the Silver-edged Fish's head and obtained a Snake-Browed Bronze Fish from inside.
"Cough cough, this is a Snake Browed Copper Fish. It doesn't seem to be worth much. If you like it, you can keep it.”
Wu Sansheng was stunned when he saw that Wu Xie had successfully opened up the Silver-edged Dragon Top.
When he saw Wu Xie take out a snake-browed copper fish from the box, he was shocked and his expression was very strange.
"Third Uncle, what does this Snake-Browed Copper Fish represent?”
Wu Xie noticed that Wu Sansheng was acting strangely after seeing the Snake-Browed Copper Fish. He was curious and couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know about the Snake-Browed Copper Fish. However, I heard an expert mention that this thing has a price but no market, so I suggest you hand it over to the country.”
"Alright, you should go back first. Otherwise, Chengcheng and Young Master Hai will know that you came to see me.”
Wu Sansheng's expression was very strange. After saying that, he hurriedly drove Wu Xie away.
*******
When Wu Xie returned home, he worriedly flipped through his grandfather's Grave Robber's Chronicles.
He flipped through the notebook but could not find any information about the Snake-Browed Copper Fish. He found that a few pages were missing.
Wu Xie noticed that Wu Sansheng's reaction was very strange. He thought that the missing pages in his grandfather's notebook might be related to the Snake-Browed Copper Fish. He believed that the Snake-Browed Copper Fish was not a simple cultural relic.
"Young Master Hai, help me check what this is.”
Helpless, Wu Xie could only ask Young Master Hai to help him search online.
"This... This is the Snake Browed Copper Fish!"
When Chen Chengcheng saw the snake-browed copper fish, he exclaimed in shock.
"Wu Xie, I saw this thing in my aunt Chen Wenjin's information. Your third uncle should also know his background and what secrets he's hiding.”
When Chen Chengcheng said that Chen Wenjin also knew about the Snake-Browed Copper Fish, Wu Xie was sure that Wu Sansheng actually knew the secret of the Snake-Browed Copper Fish and was only willing to tell him.
Therefore, under Chen Chengcheng's planning, they invited Wu Sansheng over.
Chen Chengcheng told Wu Sansheng that he had seen the Snake Eyebrow Bronze Fish in his aunt's information and thought that Wu Sansheng was hiding something.
Under their questioning, Wu Sansheng told Wu Xie and the others that not only Chen Wenjin but many others were looking for the Snake-Browed Bronze Fish. He also told them about the Old Nine Sects.
Wu Sansheng told everyone about the legend of the Old Nine Sects. The Old Nine Sects referred to the nine families that robbed tombs. They were divided into the Upper Three Sects, the Lower Three Sects, and the Lower Three Sects.
The Wu and Chen Families were both part of the Nine Old Factions. In the past, the Nine Factions did not have much contact with each other. There was only one joint grave robbing operation. However, the old nine sects had all suffered great losses because of this operation.
"Your grandfather left home for three years during this operation. When he came back, he looked haggard. I was very curious about this, but I couldn't find anything. No one in the Nine Old Factions mentioned the tomb robbery again.”
"So I advise you to give up. No one knows about the Snake-Browed Copper Fish anymore.”
Wu Sansheng glanced at Wu Xie and Chen Chengcheng and warned them in a very certain tone not to continue investigating the Snake-Browed Bronze Fish.
"Third Uncle, are there still people who participated in the tomb raiding operation back then?”
Wu Xie's face revealed a look of fear. He looked at Wu Sansheng and continued to ask.
"There's still one person who knows about this back then who's still alive, and that's the current Mrs. Hunt. As far as I know, she's in the antique business with the Huo family in Beijing.”
Wu Sansheng hesitated for a moment, but he still told Wu Xie the secret that Old Mrs. Huo knew about the Snake-Browed Copper Fish.
"Uncle Ian, I'm going to the capital to look for Mrs. Hunt tomorrow.”
After Wu Xie heard this, he put away the Snake-Browed Copper Fish and looked at Wu Sansheng with a serious expression.
"Bastard! You brat, are you trying to anger me to death? You're really naive. Do you think you can meet Mrs. Hunt just because you see her? Taking a step back, even if you met her, she wouldn't tell you such a secret.”
"I'm warning you, if you ever touch anything related to the Snake-Browed Copper Fish again, don't call me Third Uncle. We'll have nothing to do with each other from now on.”
Wu Sansheng was furious. After criticizing Wu Xie, he slammed the door and left.
"Wu Xie, what should we do now?”
Chen Chengcheng's eyes flickered with curiosity. He did not know what she was up to.
"Let's go to Beiping. Even if Third Uncle doesn't acknowledge me as his nephew, I have to figure out the secret of the Snake-Browed Copper Fish.”
After Wu Xie made the decision to go to the capital, he was worried that something would happen, so he specially went to see Long Hao and wanted to invite him to go with him.
Hearing that Wu Xie was going to Beiping, Long Hao nodded in agreement.
