Seeing that Master Jiang was so straightforward, Shen Tianhua also answered very happily, “Master Man Man said that this tomb was just discovered and not many people know about it. At present, I have only explored the periphery and have not gone deeper.”

“The periphery…Does that mean that the ancient tomb you found is not small?”

“Yes, although it can’t be compared to tombs like the Dragon Mausoleum and Cangming, the tomb I found this time isn’t small either. However, because I don’t dare to go deep, I can’t tell how big it is.”

Jiang Beiran drummed his fingers on the table rhythmically.” Then, have you notified the sects of the people who fought with you for the remnant of the book?'”‘

“That won’t happen.” Shen Tianhua shook his head.” In fact, how could they not want to leave the sect and do things on their own? They were also forced to stay under someone else’s roof. Therefore, before they completely plundered the outer layer, they would not tell this news to their master.”

“Didn’t you say that they had already tried to kill you? Aren’t we going to find people from the sect to deal with you?”

“No, it’s not… They only dared to make a move because they had the backing of the sect.”

” That’s right.” Jiang Beiran nodded and asked,” Doesn’t the sect behind them plant spies around them?””

“Some have, some have, but even if they have spies, they have their own ways to deal with it.”

At this moment, Lu Yangyu, who had been listening, said,””Since you already know who they are, haven’t you thought of telling their sect about their concealment and letting them fight among themselves?”

Glancing at Lu Yangyu, Shen Tianhua said,””Whoever does this kind of thing will break the rules of this industry. It’s a big taboo!”

“They’re already trying to kill you. Why do you still care about these rules?”

“They might not necessarily get my life, but if others find out that I broke this rule, then I can forget about staying in this circle in the future. This is more important than taking my life. Also, once the sect behind them finds out about this ancient tomb, I won’t have the chance to explore it anymore.”

Jiang Beiran could not help but shake his head when he heard that. He wanted to say that the circle of nobles was really messy.

In a situation where they didn’t trust each other, they still had to complete all kinds of cooperation. They didn’t know if the sect behind them was a backer or a shackle.

They chatted until late at night, and Jiang Beiran finally had a clearer understanding of the profession of grave robbers.

As the saying goes, there are specializations in every field. To be a grave robber, one did not need to have a very high cultivation level. The most important thing was to master all kinds of mystic arts related to grave robbing. As long as one’s skills were high enough, all the mechanical puppets in the ancient tomb could actually be dealt with. There was no need to destroy them with violence at all.

In addition, compared to exploring the ancient tomb, the ability to find the ancient tomb was the most important.

After all, these ancient tombs weren’t just hidden underground. Some of them were protected by ancient formations that could completely hide everything. Some were built in different spaces that could only be opened by the Heaven and Earth Technique. Some of them had to be found by Feng Shui to safely reappear in the human world. Otherwise, if they made a wrong move, the ancient tombs would directly self-destruct.

“Let’s stop talking about Xunlong.”Jiang Beiran then picked up the book on the table and raised it up.” I’ll go back and study it properly. You can stay with Head Lu for the next few days. Someone will come to help you solve the problem of the ancient books later.”

“Thank you, Master.” Shen Tianhua stood up and cupped his hands in salute.

“I’ll be leaving first.” Jiang Beiran was about to turn around and leave when he heard Lu Yangyu’s shout.

“Hey, Brother Jiang, take care!”

Jiang Beiran turned to Lu Yangyu and asked,””ls there something you need from me, Head Lu?”

“Of course, I was the one who called you here. Didn’t you ask me to introduce you to that ghost cultivator a few days ago? I didn’t fulfill my mission and helped you meet him.”

Seeing how efficient Lu Yangyu was this time, Jiang Beiran immediately cupped his fists and said, “”Thank you, Master Lu.”

“It’s a small matter, it’s a small matter. It’s just that she has something to do these two days and really can’t leave, so I helped you make an appointment for the day after tomorrow.”

Jiang Beiran had originally wanted to stay a few more days for the matter of recruiting underlings, so he immediately agreed,””Of course not.”

“Good! Come to my place at noon the day after tomorrow. I’ll bring you to see her. ”

“Alright, I’ll definitely visit on time. I’ll take my leave first. “Jiang Beiran turned around and walked down the stairs.

Shen Tianhua only sat back down in his chair after Jiang Beiran had left. He looked at Lu Yangyu, who was about to pour him a glass of wine, and asked,'”‘Do you think it’s reliable for me to seek refuge with this Master Jiang?”

“You can judge for yourself. Otherwise, you’ll blame it on me later. “Lu Yangyu shook his head.

“You’ve been with Master Jiang for a long time, so I came to ask you. Don’t worry, I won’t blame you this time. Just give me some advice.”

After hearing Shen Tianhua’s words, Lu Yangyu pondered for a moment and replied,””Of all the people I’ve interacted with, Master Jiang is the one I can’t see through the most, but he’s also the most reliable one. I don’t know how to express this feeling, so you should decide for yourself.”

“Your evaluation is already so high…What else can I say?”

Shen Tianhua let out a long sigh after he finished speaking. Recalling those unhappy times in the past, he really hesitated whether he should find another backer.

“Don’t sigh. You can’t be alone for the rest of your life, especially in your line of work. The risks are so high. Are you really going to rely on luck to get through every guarantee?”

“Sigh, I’ll think about it.” Shen Tianhua walked down the stairs and left the hotel after saying,” I’m going for a walk.”

Jiang Beiran was in a good mood after learning about a new group of people, because the joy of learning new things had always made him unable to stop.

It was getting late. When Jiang Beiran returned to the cottage, he found that the two girls were still playing Legend of the Mystery Dragon. Glancing at Shi Fenglan’s card, Jiang Beiran chuckled and walked straight to his room.

“Little Bei Ran! Don’t go! Let’s continue to play the simulation of immortal cultivation tonight.”

Shi Fenglan, who was holding the four cards, turned around and asked Jiang Beiran.

“No, I want to sleep early tonight.”After saying that, Poop returned to his room.

Shi Fenglan had no choice but to turn around and continue looking at the crafty Shi Jiamu.

“I was just talking. This game can be considered a draw.”Shi Fenglan suggested.

“Of course not. How can you leave halfway? Quickly draw your card, quickly draw your card.”

“Alright Shi Fenglan agreed helplessly. She glanced at Jiang Beiran’s closed door before continuing to play with Shi Jiamu.

The next morning, Jiang Beiran woke up and finished his and the two girls ‘breakfast. While they were eating, Shi Jiamu looked at Jiang Beiran and asked,””Uncle, do you have any plans?”

“I’m going back to Sheng Country.”

Upon hearing this answer, Shi Fenglan and Shi Jiamu’s reactions were completely different.

The former heaved a huge sigh of relief. Finally, he did not have to feel nervous about revealing Little Bei Ran’s words.

The latter was a little shocked.
