Divine Chef Liu was covered in smoke in the back kitchen. This was not the way to treat guests. He could only clean up briefly before welcoming the guests.
However, just as he walked out, his assistant rushed over." Head Chef, the nine helmsmen have gone to No. 306.”
Chef God Liu, who had been calm and composed, suddenly looked confused and nervous.
Room 306 was the room Liu Hao was in.
"Could it be because of Wang Qiang? No, if they had Wang Qiang's connections, they would at most introduce Head Zhang to Liu Hao. Now that the nine Helmsmen had come together, something big must have happened!”
"Give Old Xie a call and ask him to ask Shopkeeper Xie of Zhen Bao Pavilion what happened to the Nine Sects?”
After giving the order, Chef God Liu quickened his pace and walked upstairs.
No matter what, Liu Hao was the most distinguished guest of Cuihua Brothel. Regardless of whether the Nine Gates had something to do with Liu Hao, Cuihua Brothel would stand by his side.
Divine Chef Liu knew that the nine helmsmen weren't all good people, so he had to go and keep an eye on them.
On the other side.
In private room 306.
When Wang Qiang opened the door, he was stunned. Why were all nine helmsmen here?
Didn't Master say that he only wanted to invite Second Master Xi and Third Master Li?
"Master, Martial Uncles, why are you all here?”
Wang Qiang braced himself and greeted him, then quietly pulled Liu Hao to his side.
"Brother Liu Hao, let me introduce you. This is my master, Zhang Qiwei, the president of the Treasure Hunter Association.”
Zhang Qiwei was a little old man in his sixties. He didn't look tall, but he had an extraordinary bearing. He was wearing a big sweatshirt and a pair of slippers. He held a big cattail leaf fan in his hand and looked like an ordinary old man on the streets.
As soon as Zhang Qiwei entered the door, he pushed Wang Qiang to the side." You traitorous disciple who caused me to lose my little gold vault, move aside. Don't block our young hero…Tsk tsk, you're really a fine piece of jade. Zhang Qiling, that fellow, indeed raised a good student!”
Then, Zhang Qiwei said to Liu Hao with a smile,"Little kid, your Professor Zhang is my big brother, the kind that came from the same mother's womb. You can call me Second Uncle.”
As Zhang Qiwei's voice fell, Liu Hao clearly sensed that the few unfriendly gazes in front of him instantly became calm.
Liu Hao had not expected that the leader of the Nine Gates would be Professor Zhang's younger brother.
Professor Zhang was really hiding his abilities!
Therefore, Liu Hao immediately said obediently,""Hello, Second Uncle."
Zhang Qiwei's face was creased with laughter." Alright, alright, alright. Come, Nephew, let me introduce you to the other uncles. They're all my sworn brothers…and sisters.”
Then, Zhang Qiwei pointed at the second person who entered the door. It was a man wearing a silk Tang suit with a fair face. Just from his appearance, one could not tell his age. He looked like a young man in his twenties or thirties.
"This is Xi Hongyue. You can call her Xi Second Master. She's the head of the famous Beijing opera troupe, Hongyue Theater.”
Then, Zhang Qiwei introduced the other helmsmen behind him.
In third place was Li Sanyan, a magician who owned a circus.
Liu Hao realized that this Third Master Li was thin and weak. He walked silently and was missing a thumb. He was one of the few unfriendly gazes just now.
The helmsman in fourth place was called Chen Ju. Liu Hao saw the iron glove on his left hand at a glance. It was like a sharp claw, and this person was the other person who was looking at Liu Hao with ill intentions.
Other than that, there was also Fifth Brother Wu Xun, Sixth Brother Hei Longgang, Seventh Brother Huo Siyu, Eighth Brother Qi Ruyi, and Ninth Brother Jie Peng.
Among them, Huo Siyu and Qi Ruyi were both women.
After the helmsmen introduced themselves, everyone sat down.
Zhang Qiwei deliberately protected Liu Hao and pulled him to his left side to sit down. On Liu Hao's left side was Second Master Xi. The helmsmen took their seats in turn. Finally, Wang Qiang sat on Zhang Qiwei's right, which was the last seat.
"Nephew Liu Hao, don't be afraid. The few of us came here today to understand. How much do you know about our Nine Gates?”
Liu Hao shook his head." Second Uncle, I don't know much about the Nine Gates. It was only when Brother Qiang told me some information just now that I found out that there was a legacy of the Nine Gates among the Treasure Hunters.”
"That's right, my little brother is very unfamiliar with our treasure hunters." Wang Qiang immediately echoed.”
Zhang Qiwei waved his hand angrily." You brat, stay away from me. I'm annoyed just looking at you now."”
Then, Zhang Qiwei looked at Liu Hao with a smile and took out an accessory from his pocket.
A pitch-black claw was embedded in the golden pattern. The claw was pitch-black but very transparent. Under the illumination of the light, there seemed to be a ray of light flickering.
This should be the gold-touching talisman!
Whoosh!
Everyone looked at the gold talisman in Zhang Qiwei's hand in unison, then turned to look at Liu Hao with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Nephew, Cockroach said that you know the origin of this Golden Talisman?”
Liu Hao knew that Zhang Qiwei was testing him, so he pretended to be hesitant. In the end, he nodded firmly." I did read about the Golden Talisman in a book."”
"According to the book, the gold-touching talisman is proof of the identity of a gold-touching lieutenant. Wearing it can ward off evil spirits.”
" According to the description in the book, this item is dark and transparent. It glows under the fire. The front end is sharp and the cone-shaped lower end is inlaid with several gold threads. The silk is in the shape of a 'ground penetrating pattern.' The talisman has two ancient seal characters,'Touching Gold'.”

Following Liu Hao's explanation, the gold-touching talisman in Zhang Qiwei's hand began to respond.
"Good, good, good!"
Seeing this scene, Zhang Qiwei shouted excitedly three times. Then, he flipped the gold-touching talisman in his hand, and the words "gold-touching" appeared on the other side.
"Nephew, tell me more about this Golden Talisman. As long as you can completely identify it, your second uncle will give you something good as a greeting gift!”
"Then it would be impolite of me to refuse. Actually, I also know how to make this gold-touching talisman…" Liu Hao smiled.
At this point, Liu Hao paused and looked around.
Did that mean that he really had to say it in front of so many people?
Wang Qiang had said before that this gold-touching talisman was actually the Zhang family's inheritance token. If Liu Hao were to publicly reveal the method of making the gold-touching talisman here, then the Zhang family's gold-touching talisman would no longer be the only one.
However, the power of the gold-touching talismans made in this era was probably less than one-thousandth of the full version of the gold-touching talisman.
Zhang Qiwei waved his hand nonchalantly." Speak, just say it. Everyone here is not an outsider. If the method you mentioned can really create a gold-touching talisman, then the Treasure Hunter Association can include it as an essential strategic resource and give every Great Xia treasure hunter a gold-touching talisman.”
Liu Hao was a little surprised by Zhang Qiwei's magnanimity. At this moment, he believed what Wang Qiang had said before. Zhang Qiwei had always been committed to restoring the glory of the treasure hunter profession.
" To make the gold-touching talisman, you need to use the sharpest claw of the pangolin and soak it in the wax for 49 days. You also need to bury it 100 meters underground in the Dragon Tower and borrow the spiritual energy of the earth vein for 800 days. It's one inch long, black and shiny, and extremely hard. The talisman has two ancient seal characters,'gold-touching' carved on it, which can be used to protect one's body.”
buzz ~
A black light flew out of the Golden Touch Talisman. The light circled around Zhang Qiwei and then disappeared instantly.
The appraisal was done!
The divine power contained in the golden talisman was awakened!
Zhang Qiwei could clearly feel that the Golden Touch Talisman had established a connection with his aura. At this moment, he could not help but cry.
Although Zhang Qiwei had a premonition that the Golden Touch Talisman might be identified, when this moment came, he was still unprepared.
" Sob, sob, sob. Nephew, you're the savior of our Zhang family. This old man has no way to repay such a great favor. I do have a daughter..."
Liu Hao was shocked. This old man was really out of tune. He dared to say anything!
Besides, you're already in your sixties. Your daughter should be in her thirties or forties, right?
On the side, Wang Qiang's face turned green with anger because Zhang Qiwei's only daughter was his wife.
He suspected that the old man was doing this on purpose.
It was to take revenge for ruining his plan to hide his little treasury.
Zhang Qiwei changed the topic." It's a pity that my daughter married some bastard disciple a long time ago. I do have a granddaughter. She's cute and cute, smart and quick-witted. One look and you can tell that she's a beauty, just like her grandmother…"
This time, Wang Qiang could not hold it in anymore.
"Master, shut up. Qi Qi is only twelve this year.”
Zhang Qiwei blushed and coughed." Ahem, I don't know how to thank Nephew Gu!”
"I wonder if you can wait ten years for my granddaughter to grow up... sob ~"
Wang Qiang could only use physical measures to shut his master's mouth.
As for the other helmsmen, they did not say anything. They only had smiles in their eyes as they watched this slightly comical scene.
They were already used to the temperament of this Great Master of the Nine Gates.
Second Master Xi saw that Zhang Qiwei's mood had calmed down. He cupped his fists and congratulated him,"Old Brother Zhang, you've finally gotten what you wanted. The Zhang Clan's inheritance token has been awakened, and it's of great significance to our Nine Gates.”
In addition, Li Sanyan asked impatiently,""Big Brother Zhang, what's the power of your Golden Touch Talisman?”
Zhang Qiwei was in a very good mood at the moment and did not mind revealing the ability of the Golden Touch Talisman. He said,"This golden talisman has the effect of warding off evil spirits and is even more useful than Buddhist magic treasures. Moreover, it has a long standby time and can use one's own divine power to replenish its divine power consumption.”
This made the helmsmen very excited.
The secret realm was filled with danger. Not only were there traps, but there were also all kinds of defensive and offensive arrays that were difficult to deal with.
However, the most difficult thing to solve was the various strange things in the secret realm.
The origins of these strange creatures were mysterious. There were human and beast forms, and there were also indescribable things.
These things were the most difficult to deal with. Ordinary attacks were completely ineffective. Not only were their skin rough and their flesh thick, but their abilities were also strange. If they were not careful, they would die.
In the past, whether it was treasure hunters or other archaeologists, they would use Buddhist artifacts to restrain the strange creatures they encountered in the secret realm of the remains.
However, although the Buddhist Dharma artifact could greatly restrain these strange things, after the Buddhist power in the Dharma artifact was consumed, it would take a long time to recover. It was too much of a delay.
With the Golden Touch Talisman, he would be able to use one less Buddhist Dharma artifact.
"If only there were a few more of these golden talismans.”
Second Master Xi, who was sitting on Liu Hao's left, sighed. Suddenly, his entire body arched into the shape of a shrimp. A strange red spot suddenly appeared on his fair face, like a ghost's eye.
Zhang Qiwei shouted," Not good! The curse on Red Moon has been activated!”
