Tomb raiding: Start with a proficiency panel

And this time,

Wu Xie suddenly asked, "Aunt Wenjin,

"You're not dead?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Pi glanced at Wu Xie and said, "If you can't speak properly, then shut your mouth."

My daughter is very lucky.

He didn't die.

Wu Xie chuckled awkwardly, and at that moment Chen Pi pulled Chen Wenjin to sit down.

Then he asked:

"Wenjin, why haven't you gone back to let us know you're safe these past few years?"

Chen Wenjin shook her head bitterly:

"Father, it's not that I don't want to."

As he spoke, he turned and looked into the depths of Tamutuo.

Then he said bitterly, "It's because my daughter can't leave this place."

My daughter... is trapped.

Chen Pi was somewhat puzzled: "Trapped?"

What does this mean?

Chen Wenjin was momentarily stunned by Chen Pi's words.

Finally, he recounted: "After leaving the Xisha Islands,

Every member of our team,

Their bodies began to mutate, and those in severe cases died young. This was considered a good outcome.

And we who are alive,

That's the most difficult part, because our bodies are gradually mutating, mutating in the direction of the Forbidden Woman.

later,

We realized we were being watched, so we started to save ourselves, but look at my current situation...

You know it failed.

Later, team members died one after another, and Huo Ling went missing. Now I'm the only one left.

He then looked at Chen Pi and said, "Later I found this place..."

That is, the Palace of the Queen Mother of the West.

Although the casualties were heavy, I have finally found a way to suppress my mutation.

That's Tamutuo.

As long as I'm on this land, my body's mutation will be slowed down, and the closer I get to it, the slower the mutation will occur.

Even to the point of being negligible,

Only after resolving my own issues did I go to let my father know I was safe and sound every year.

But later,

I found that mutations accelerate as soon as I go outside.

So the daughter

They gave up on letting everyone know they were safe.

Wu Xie then said, "Then Aunt Wenjin,

You led us here.

What for?

Chen Wenjin frowned slightly, then shook her head:

"It's nothing."

I simply want you to take me to the Queen Mother of the West's palace.

Zhou Nanbei scoffed, "Alright,

Stop talking nonsense.

That's your goal, but not all of it.

Upon hearing this,

Chen Wenjin frowned, while Chen Pi looked at Zhou Nanbei:

"Young Master Zhou,"

Is there any way to save my daughter?

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly: "Yes, I was the one who saved Huo Ling back then."

finished,

With a wave of his hand, a corpse beetle appeared out of thin air before him.

Sheng Sheng Man then shot out a dagger.

next moment,

The red corpse beetle was then stuck into the ground.

See here,

Everyone was shocked, and Chen Wenjin cried out in pain. Chen Pi looked at Zhou Nanbei with concern.

Seeing this, Zhou Nanbei waved his hand.

"Fourth Master, this is normal."

What's the rush?

Upon hearing this, Chen Pi finally relaxed.

Fifteen minutes later,

Chen Wenjin then spoke in a hoarse voice: "Father,"

I can feel that I'm no longer mutating.

Chen Pi nodded slightly.

Just as I was about to express my gratitude, Zhou Nanbei chuckled and said, "It hasn't mutated, but it still needs to be taken good care of."

The forbidden fragrance on your body

It has already penetrated deep into the bone marrow; unless it reaches the level of internal energy and is removed using internal energy, otherwise...

Your lifespan

It will be significantly shorter.

Upon hearing this, Chen Pi breathed a sigh of relief; he knew all too well how abundant the resources of Qiandao Lake were.

Therefore he said:

"Wenjin, you don't need to worry about that."

Dad joined Qiandao Lake.

You can join your dad's group then; Young Master Zhou provides plenty of resources for his subordinates.

In less than ten years,

Then you can break through the Gang Jin (罡劲) barrier.

Upon hearing this, Xie Yuchen and other insightful people...

They all looked at Zhou Nanbei in surprise.

Zhou Nanbei chuckled upon seeing this: "What?"

Envious?

With a smile, she said, "If you're envious, then just join my Qiandao Lake."

Xie Yuchen remained silent.

Black Box's eyes lit up: "Join us!"

Definitely joining!

"Young Master Zhou, anyone who doesn't join is a fool."

Zhou Nanbei looked at Hei Xiazi.

She smiled gently: "You're quite sensible."

You really are.

I need to recruit the top fighter, but I'm recruiting you to find Master Qi, so you have to get Qi Tiezui for me.

Brought back from overseas

Otherwise, I have far too many capable people under my command.

We don't need you.

Black Bear's eyelids twitched, and he gave an awkward smile:

"Young Master Zhou is joking."

Although I have some connection with the Qi family, a big shot like Master Qi the Eighth...

How could I possibly know a blind man?

Upon hearing this, Zhou Nanbei calmly replied, "Of course I wouldn't speak nonsense."

To be precise,

You are Qi Tiezui's eyes and ears in China, handling all matters, big and small, within the Nine Gates or the martial arts world.

You were involved in some way, more or less.

The purpose was to tell Qi Tiezui these things, and to mention that you had studied abroad, and the person who arranged it for you...

That's Qi Tiezui.

I need Qi Tiezui to come back and help me coordinate the layout of Qiandao Lake.

Upon hearing this,

The black box remained silent for a while, but Xie Yuchen asked:

"But Young Master Zhou,"

"Wasn't the Eighth Master of the Qi family dead?"

He paused, then added, "And if you really want to find Eighth Master,

Shouldn't we go to the Qi family's place?

Hearing Xie Yuchen's words, Zhou Nanbei shook his head slightly:

"Managing one's family has been a tradition since ancient times."

The Qi family has always been a single-lineage family, but now they have quite a few offspring.

That can only mean it's a side branch.

"And do you think the collateral branch might know Qi Tiezui's whereabouts?"

He looked at Black Bear as he spoke.

"Stop pretending not to talk. When you appeared on the streets..."

Although he is the same as Zhang Qiling,

He's a player with a clearly stated price tag.

But the biggest difference between you two is that Zhang Qiling went into the tomb with a purpose, while you went for the money.

of course,

Money is your goal, but your main goal is still to gather information for Qi Tiezui.

He paused, then continued:

"Your skills, your background, all point to Qi Tiezui."

Do I need to say anything more?

Upon hearing this, Hei Xiazi's expression turned somewhat grave.

After a short while,

Then, in a hoarse voice, he said, "Young Master Zhou is exceptionally intelligent."

Yes,

I am indeed the eyes of the Eighth Prince in China. Although the Eighth Prince has gone overseas, this is where his roots truly lie.

But he faked his death to escape.

So I dare not come back.

Zhou Nanbei raised an eyebrow slightly: "Is it because of Zhang Qishan?"

There was a hint of amusement in his voice as he spoke:

"Go back and tell Qi Tiezui that Zhang Qishan is doomed sooner or later."

Tell him to come back right away.

Report to Qiandao Lake.

He paused, then added, "If he doesn't come back soon..."

You just tell him,

My name is Zhou Nanbei, and my grandfather's name is Zhou Youfu.

He still owes me a huge debt of karma.

If they don't come back, I'll have Senior Zuo Ci, one of the Three Immortals of the Eastern Han Dynasty, use this karmic thread...

Play with him for a bit.

Black Bear scratched his head: "Zuo Ci from the Eastern Han Dynasty?"

He then looked at Zhou Nanbei:

"Playing this big?"

Zhou Nanbei shook his head: "Enough nonsense, just remember to get the message across the line."

Before September this year,

I want to see Qi Tiezui standing on the land of Qiandao Lake.

As for Wu Xie, or rather, the others...

They were all completely bewildered. They recognized the Chinese characters, but they couldn't understand what was being said.

What is called,

Zuo Ci of the Eastern Han Dynasty?

They're even fighting each other remotely through causal connections?
