One person: Reborn as Huangxian, seeking the title of Feng Baobao at the beginning

In fact, the rumor that the water-controlling beast from the Jiangyan period was unearthed in Tianfu Square is most likely a hoax deliberately created by the developer in order to boost the business of Tianfu Square.

After the item was sent to the museum, we couldn’t refuse it. But after all, it wasn’t an antique, so the stone beast was placed alone without any special introduction…”

Wu Xie's words prompted the curator who had been accompanying them to speak. He slowly told them something that Gao Yuanda and the others had never heard of.

For the sake of this stone beast, the museum specially invited several masters in the cultural relics field to help with the inspection, and the conclusions they reached were consistent.

It is impossible to directly announce to the world that the stone beast was deliberately created by someone for fun. After all, it is also for the economic development of Chengdu, so this matter was concealed.

When the curator saw that Wu Xie and Taoist Qingfeng were from the Jiumen Feng Shui Bureau, and that Wu Xie had seen through the secret, he no longer concealed anything and told him the truth directly.

Gao Yuanda didn't know what to say for a moment. What else could he say?

If the heavy rain and rainstorms in the Xichuan region were not caused by the water-controlling beast, then could it really be a natural disaster?

Taoist Qingfeng couldn't help but take a step back, his heart full of disbelief.

"Innocent--"

"The curator is right. This stone beast was indeed carved using modern technology. It is not some water-controlling mythical beast!"

Wu Xie interrupted Taoist Qingfeng before he finished speaking and gave the final conclusion.

"Director, sorry to bother you. We'll go back first. We'll contact you if there's anything else!"

Wu Xie gave Taoist Qingfeng a look and said this.

The curator naturally did not try to keep them. The people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau did have a high status in the cultural relics circle, but there was nothing that needed the curator's help, so the curator would not take the initiative to say anything more.

The group of four left the museum.

Since Gao Yuanda was there, the guard went back to report first.

Gao Yuanda was in a low mood. He just followed Wu Xie and Taoist Qingfeng silently with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Tian Zhen, where are you going?"

Seeing that Wu Xie did not get into the car directly after leaving the museum, but walked quickly in another direction, Taoist Qingfeng followed him and asked in confusion.

At this time, Taoist Qingfeng had too many doubts in his mind and was waiting to get answers from Wu Xie.

Without bothering to answer Taoist Qingfeng's question, Wu Xie's pace became faster and faster, and he even started to jog.

He moved very quickly and pulled out a young man from behind a dilapidated wall.

"No, Wu Xie, you are..."

Seeing Wu Xie actually carrying a young man over, especially this young man who looked like he was wearing tattered clothes with patches on them, probably because he had not eaten or drunk enough recently, his face was dirty and his original appearance could not be seen, his cheeks were sunken, and there was a dark area under his eye sockets, Taoist Qingfeng couldn't bear it at first.

"Don't be afraid, young man. We are not bad people. There is food in the car. Come with us and eat something, okay?"

Taoist Qingfeng slowed down his voice, afraid of scaring the young man in front of him, and asked carefully.

"I, I won't go, let me go, let me go!"

Even though he was soaked all over, being carried by Wu Xie, and his body was shaking uncontrollably, he still struggled in the face of Taoist Qingfeng's gentleness.

Taoist Qingfeng looked at Wu Xie hesitantly, not knowing what to do. Although they felt sorry for the young man, they couldn't just take him away by force, right?

"If you want to live, be obedient!"

Wu Xie seemed to have completely ignored Taoist Qingfeng's look and just yelled at the young man.

Usually Wu Xie always had a gentle smile on his face, giving people a gentle and elegant feeling. But now his face suddenly turned stern and he spoke ferocious words, which frightened the young man almost instantly and he dared not say another word.

After bringing the person to the car, Wu Xie remained silent.

Gao Yuanda glanced at Taoist Qingfeng, his eyes full of help.

He is responsible for protecting the safety of the people from the Jiumen Feng Shui Bureau. As for what to do and where to go, it is decided by Taoist Qingfeng and others.

"Let's go back to the security area first and find a room for him to wash up. I have something to ask him."

Seeing that the car had not started yet, Wu Xie gave orders directly.

When he heard that he had to go to the security area, the young man curled up in the corner of his seat seemed to be frightened and his body trembled even more violently.

Taoist Qingfeng's eyes moved back and forth between the young man and Wu Xie for a few times. He seemed to have thought of something and then remained silent.

Gao Yuanda drove them back to the Rongcheng security zone.

After arranging rooms with bathrooms for Wu Xie and Taoist Qingfeng, Gao Yuanda went back to report to Yang Chen.

As for Wu Xie and Taoist Qingfeng, they just sat quietly in the room, waiting for the young man to come out of the shower.

After entering the security zone, the young man seemed to have accepted his fate. When Wu Xie asked him to take a shower, he went into the bathroom obediently.

"Why do you have to bring this person back?"

Taoist Qingfeng finally had the chance to ask.

“The stone beast in the museum is indeed not a water-controlling beast, but the stone beast unearthed in Tianfu Square is a real water-controlling beast.

Someone tampered with it and took away the real water-controlling beast!"

Wu Xie couldn't help but light a cigarette, took a deep puff, and then spoke slowly.

When the guard was taking Wu Xie to the museum, they happened to pass by Tianfu Square. Wu Xie also realized that the location there was the place where the aura of the water-suppressing beast was concentrated.

Based on this alone, he could be sure that there was definitely a water-controlling divine beast buried there.

Because the water-controlling beast was no longer there, the aura gradually dissipated. And they came at the right time. If they were a little later, the aura of the water-controlling beast would have completely dissipated.

By then, they really won’t be able to find any clues at all.

"I noticed that man before I entered the museum. He was wandering around and staring at the museum. After he made eye contact with me, he ran away. When we came out, he was staring at the museum again. I suspect that what he wanted to stare at was not the museum, but something inside. You can see how he was dressed. It's obvious that his family has fallen on hard times. His clothes are tattered and patched. But his temperament of being indifferent to fame and disgrace shows that he should have a good background.

I'm not overthinking it. I will never let him go before I find out his true identity!"

Although Wu Xie had not been in the museum for a long time, he was certain of one thing: there were no cultural relics in the Rongcheng Museum that were worthy of such attention. The only special thing was the fake stone beast.

Since the water-suppressing beast has been dug out, the person behind the scenes has specially made a new stone beast and tried to send it to the museum, which shows that the real water-suppressing beast is very important to the other party.

Regardless of whether the other party intended to destroy the water-suppressing beast, causing a complete disaster to the Xichuan region, or had other uses for the water-suppressing beast, the excavation of the water-suppressing beast was not a surprise.

Regardless of whether the person he brought back had any relationship with the water-suppressing beast, Wu Xie would adhere to the principle of rather killing someone by mistake than letting him go, and would let the person go after the matter was over.

Before that, this person can only follow him and cannot leave!

Wu Xie believes in his intuition, it won’t be wrong!

"Speaking of this, I seem to remember that when Captain Gao and I entered the museum, we seemed to vaguely see a dark shadow hiding in the dark and staring at the museum. Could it be that the dark shadow is the person you brought back?"

Taoist Qingfeng recalled carefully that it was raining at the time, and he didn't pay much attention to the situation near the museum because he was holding an umbrella. After all, almost all the shops were closed, and there was not even a single vehicle on the road except theirs, not to mention pedestrians in the heavy rain.

He just glanced at it casually at the time and really didn't pay much attention to it.

Thinking about it now, it’s really strange!
"Who knows! Maybe it is. He will be out soon. If you want to know anything, just ask him directly!"

Inside the bathroom, the sound of water had stopped and the man had finished his shower.

Sure enough, after Wu Xie finished speaking, the bathroom door was opened from the inside.

A young man wearing a sports suit and looking no more than sixteen or seventeen years old walked out of the bathroom.

He was actually younger than they thought he was.

"Name, age, identity information, why are you near the museum? What is your purpose? Is the stone beast in the museum related to you?"

Wu Xie pointed at the chair in front of him and motioned the boy to sit down. His voice was cold and he stared at him seriously.

"You are from the security zone, why is he wearing Taoist clothes?"

After sitting down, the young man stared at Wu Xie and Taoist Qingfeng for a while before asking.

"Can you tell us everything I want to know?"

After making eye contact with the boy and seeing the seriousness in his eyes, Wu Xie realized that this question was very important to the boy, which was why he asked it.

"Even if you are Taoist priests, you must be Taoist priests with official connections. I can tell you my identity, but as for whether you can believe it, I can't guarantee it!"

The boy tilted his head, as if he was also thinking about Wu Xie's question.

"My name is Xu Yuyi, I'm eighteen years old. I think you've guessed why I'm near the museum, it's because of the water-controlling beast that was discovered in Tianfu Square at the beginning of the year.

The heavy rain in Xichuan area was caused by the fact that the water-controlling beast had been removed and could no longer suppress the rain.

The Xu family is the guardian family of the water beast in Rongcheng Town. They have stayed here for generations just to protect the water beast.

It was the Xu family’s incompetence that caused the water-controlling beast to be removed, leading to a catastrophe…”

Back then, Li Bing and his son built the Jiangyan water conservancy project. In order to ensure that there would be no accidents at Jiangyan, they specially built five water-controlling mythical beasts, which were buried in fixed locations to protect Jiangyan.

No one knew that in order to ensure that nothing unexpected happened to the water-suppressing beast, Li Bing and his son also arranged five other families to guard the water-suppressing beast.

The Xu family is guarding the water-controlling beast of Chengdu City.

By the time Xu Yuyi came to the Xu family, he was the only descendant of the family and lived with his parents not far from Tianfu Square.

Since childhood, Xu Yuyi grew up listening to stories about Jiangyan and water-controlling beasts. He always thought that these were just legends.

Until that day, Xu's father held a sword and stood in front of him and his mother, just to cover their escape.

Xu's mother stuffed a tattered family tree into Xu Yuyi's hands and pushed him into a trash can, leaving only the last words to Xu Yuyi: the water-controlling beast under Tianfu Square must not make any mistakes, otherwise a catastrophe would befall him!

Xu Yuyi didn’t know what the disaster was. He only knew that from that day on, he lost his parents and became an orphan!
Wu Xie and Taoist Qingfeng fell into silence.

Neither of them had ever imagined that there were so many secrets hidden behind Jiangyan and the water-controlling beast.

"You're guarding near the museum, it's totally useless!"

After hesitating for a moment, Wu Xie finally spoke, "The water-controlling beast in the museum is just a replica, not a real water-controlling beast!"

"Impossible! I saw with my own eyes the water-controlling beast being unearthed and then transferred to the museum. I want to stay in the museum..."

Xu Yuyi's face was full of disbelief, and he shouted loudly, "Don't lie to me! I have been guarding near the museum for so long, how could I not know whether the water-controlling beast is real or fake?

As long as the water-controlling beast does not return to its original position, the heavy rain in Xichuan will not stop. Maybe the heavy rain will not stop until the entire Xichuan area turns into a vast ocean! "

Since his parents passed away, Xu Yuyi has been alone. He stays not far from the museum day and night to ensure that the water-controlling beast will not be moved away.

In fact, Xu Yuyi also tried to tell the people in the museum that the water-controlling beast should be buried back where it was dug out from, otherwise a disaster would befall.

But who would believe what a boy who looks like a beggar says?
Later, tired of talking, Xu Yuyi gave up.

He even thought about just delaying the time. After all, the disaster that his parents talked about hasn't happened yet, right?
"I didn't lie to you. We came to the Chengdu Museum just for this water-controlling beast. You must know that Jiangyan City has been flooded once. The warning area has sent countless soldiers to rescue, but the source of the natural disaster has not been found. Just like you said, the rainstorm will not stop.

The water-controlling beasts had been swapped before they were transported to the museum. You yourself said that there were five water-controlling beasts, and five guarding families. Now you are the only one left in the Xu family, and you don't know anything. Can you lead us to find the people from the other four families?

They are all guarding the water-controlling beasts, maybe they have some news about them?"

What Wu Xie wanted to know more was whether there was a problem only with the water-controlling beast in Rongcheng, or with the other four water-controlling beasts as well.

"When my parents were alive, they never told me about the water-controlling beast, let alone the protection of the family. This time, if it wasn't a matter of life and death, I'm afraid my parents wouldn't have told me.

I know nothing about the families of the other four guardian beasts! (End of this chapter)
