Chapter 25 The largest tomb robbery in history (1)

Huo Xiuxiu said: "That old man, his name is Jin Wantang, did you remember anything?"

The image of the old man with gold teeth is very vivid in my memory, because the person who pulled me into all this was also an old man with gold teeth.

When she said this, I felt excited. There are not so many coincidences in the world. Apparently she meant that the old man with gold teeth named Jin Wantang she saw was the one who came to my shop to find rubbings. There was the first intersection between her and my experiences.

It turns out that the old ghost's name is Jin Wantang. I think I heard the owner of the store next door mention it, and I felt a little strange.

I have never paid attention to this old man. In fact, I wanted to check it out at the beginning, but these people were elusive. I didn’t have any experience or connections at the time. What happened later had nothing to do with this old man, etc. I had connections and abilities, but I couldn’t even remember the old man’s appearance, and there were no details that could stimulate me to think of him, so I always thought that his appearance was accidental.

Of course, when he came here to see my grandfather, he only said that he was introduced by Lao Chu, and that the silk book was dug out by a friend. These words alone, as well as the countless troubles they have caused me, now seem unlikely to be accidental. However, what is very strange is that what happened next has nothing to do with him. If this is a conspiracy, it would be too abnormal. .

However, although his appearance, I can't tell whether it was accidental or inevitable, designed or due to the turn of fate, but it has become a fact that he walked into my shop on that day, and I can never go back.

I nodded to her and asked, "Does he know something?"

Huo Xiuxiu shook her head: "He is white, clean, and doesn't know anything. However, it was indeed him who answered the letter. He and grandma only had a business relationship. Later, one time, he got greedy and got involved in something. He did some tricks on the matter, but my grandma immediately discovered it and stopped cooperating with him."

At that time, Huo Xiuxiu was very surprised. It was just a question. Why did Jin Wantang react like this after seeing the letter? Jin Wantang was an old fox. He knew the power of the Huo family and didn't know why Huo Xiuxiu came here. He came to settle accounts. I still came here to spy on something, so I refused to say anything.

But Huo Xiuxiu was very patient. She went to his store almost every day and hardly annoyed Jin Wantang to death.

At the end of that year, Jin Wantang was also unlucky. One of the shipments contained an inconspicuous Han Ba ​​Dao, which turned out to be made of jade. It was checked at the customs. It was originally a small case, but the jade Han Ba ​​Dao was valued at one. The value was too high, and it immediately became a major case. Seeing that his life savings, and even his head, could be stolen at once.

At this time, Huo Xiuxiu seized the opportunity and made a deal with him. With her family connections, she helped him set up a line and saved his shop. At this time, Jin Wantang's weakness was caught, and he had to Say no more.

After hesitating for a long time, he told Huo Xiuxiu everything on the phone one night.

It turns out that the deal he was thinking about was no ordinary deal. Looking at it now, it may be the largest tomb robbing activity in the history of Chinese tomb robbing.

With the Huo family's methods back then, anyone who dared to take advantage of the Huo family would be retaliated to death. The reason why Jin Wantang was okay was because after this event, the Huo family, and even several other parties, were all seriously injured. I don't have the strength or mood to pursue anything.

The memories that that deal brought to these people were really terrible.

When the fat man heard this, his eyes shone, he couldn't help but sit up straight, and asked: "Bragging, the biggest tomb robbing activity must be our trip to the Tarim Basin."

Huo Xiuxiu shook her head: "That's not what you think of as a tomb raider. That deal has gone beyond the so-called tomb robbing concept."

The fat man said "Oh" and stopped talking, because it was beyond the concept, so this so-called "big" should not be on the scale.

I asked: "It's beyond concept. Could it be that what they robbed was not a tomb on the ground but something flying in the sky?"

Huo Xiuxiu said: "Of course that can't be the case."

Tell me, mother, what is the different concept that makes this deal so special? "The fat man asked.

Just as Huo Xiuxiu was about to speak, Menyou Ping spoke from the side: "Their purpose of robbing that tomb is not for money, but for another person who is still alive."
