One person ascends to the Pure Huang Court

Could it be that the hidden danger has not yet reached the point of erupting, so it cannot be seen?

Hu Xiuwu asked Hu Bayi if he found anything strange during this archaeological trip.

Hu Bayi drank the beer in his glass. "Strange places? Little brother, let me tell you, this operation is strange everywhere."

"That Jingjue Ancient City is weird, the American girl who provided the funding is weird, and even the people who investigated this incident after returning to Sijiu City are weird."

When this matter was mentioned, Hu Bayi glanced at Da Jin Ya and saw that he and Fatty were drinking happily, then he whispered to Hu Xiuwu:

"The people who came to investigate us this time are definitely not the police! I'm betting on my more than ten years of experience as a soldier."

"If it was the police, the focus of the inquiry should be on those students and the cause of Professor Hao's death. But the people who came to question us this time were more interested in asking about the Jingjue Ancient City, the strange ghost cave, and whether we had seen anything beyond common sense."

"And when one of them greeted us and shook my hand, I felt like I was electrocuted. Later I asked the fat guy and found that he felt the same way."

"I suspect they are not police officers at all, but some secret agents!"

After listening to his eldest brother's words, Hu Xiuwu knew that the people who questioned them this time were most likely the same group of people who warned the Second Master.

A 'non-state-owned enterprise' responsible for the affairs of non-Chinese people across the country - Nadutong.

According to my brother,

The ancient city of Jingjue was able to rule over the thirty-six kingdoms in the Western Regions with its tiny territory. Legend has it that it also had a queen whose eyes could lead to some imaginary space.

These things sound like they are related to extraordinary people, so Nadutong must investigate them thoroughly.

However, when Nadutong discovered that no aliens were involved in this incident, the seriousness of the matter decreased.

In addition, the ancient city of Jingjue had been buried under the yellow sand and could not be traced, so the incident was left unresolved.

If Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were extraordinary people, then it would not be so easy for them to escape this time.

This time Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan drank a lot. On the one hand, they finally got out of the desert and they were indulgent after surviving a disaster.

On the other hand, he knew that Hu Xiuwu, who didn't drink, was there and could take him home soon, so he lost his restraint.

Finally, Big Gold Teeth returned to the shop alone.

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan both blushed and staggered back home with the support of Hu Xiuwu.

······

After the investigation of this incident was finally completed, Shirley Yang was cleared of suspicion and planned to return to Country M. She also planned to bring Professor Chen back to Country M for recuperation.

Before leaving, Shirley Yang came to Hu Bayi and handed him the 40,000 US dollars that she had promised to give to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan.

However, when talking to Shirley Yang,

Hu Bayi did this for the sake of his manliness and to avoid losing face in front of Shirley Yang.

He insisted that his share was borrowed from Shirley Yang, and he would return it to Shirley Yang when he had money in the future.

Shirley Yang smiled slightly and left without saying anything.

As a result, as soon as they left, Hu Bayi regretted it:

That's not right. Why did you say that the money was borrowed? Isn't that my reward?

After Wang Kaixuan found out about this, he scolded him, saying that he was only interested in beauty and forgetting money. Hu Bayi knew he was in the wrong and did not dare to refute him for the first time.

After this trip to the desert, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were a little scared and didn’t want to risk their lives again in the short term.

And with Shirley Yang's money, after sending part of it to the families of Hu Bayi's deceased comrades,

The two of them still had a lot of money left, which was enough to start a business.

The two of them decided to set up a stall in Panjiayuan to practice their skills, both to make money and to improve their eyesight, and they would stop tomb robbing for the time being.

Thanks to Da Jin Ya's connections, the two of them set up a stall in Panjiayuan seriously, but unfortunately they didn't make much money.

Seeing that their eldest son finally did business honestly, Hu's mother and father finally felt relieved.

Hu's mother lived a leisurely retired life in the old city, planting flowers and grass, taking care of her young son.

Hu Yunxuan felt bored staying at home, so he found a job as a teacher in a military academy in the old city.

An old general who had fought in the war and retired with a star on his shoulder applied for a lecturer at a military academy. The school was eager to hire him and immediately went through the formalities.

As for Hu Xiuwu, he was even more cool and carefree.

I take the bus to school every day and go home to practice the Golden Light Mantra at night.

Although his cultivation speed is not as fast as when he was in the mountains, relying on the Huangting Sutra, it can be said that his Qi training is improving day by day.

On Saturdays and Sundays, I would go to KTV to sing with Wang Ye, Jin Yuanyuan, Liu Muzhi and others.

Sometimes I would go to Wang Wei's country to discuss philosophy and Taoist classics with Wang Ye. Wang Ye seemed to be particularly interested in this and hoped to find the meaning of his life in it.

There is also Mr. Hui Erye. After moving into the new house, he taught Hu Xiuwu the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" step by step.

After two months of this simple life,

Hu Xiuwu's school is on summer vacation.

During this holiday, Hu Xiuwu suddenly had more time. After completing his daily practice of the Golden Light Mantra, he still had a lot of free time.

When practicing Qigong, you cannot practice it 24 hours a day as it will cause too much damage to your mind and spirit.

Therefore, the Huangting Sutra, which can be used to hang up, is the treasure of the Shangqing Sect.

Since he had nothing to do, Hu Xiuwu rode the bicycle his family bought him a few days ago.

Go to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan's stalls, join in the fun and see how they are doing.

Hu Xiuwu rode his bike all the way to Panjiayuan,

Panjiayuan is the busiest place on weekends, with all kinds of people there.

There are people who come here to shop on Taobao, to pick up bargains, and to sell things, some come here to sell antiques, and some come here to buy antiques. Each story they tell is more mysterious than the last.

There are even some foreigners who bring translators here to experience the exotic customs from their perspective.

Panjiayuan also has the bad habit of paying for goods and not taking any responsibility.

Anyone who comes to Panjiayuan for the first time and hopes to get a bargain will definitely take precautions.

However, Panjiayuan does not only sell "regular goods" and "unfair goods", there are also some stall owners selling some genuine things.

Fine and exquisite bird cages, cricket jars, four treasures of the study, various pairs of walnuts, and collectible bracelets.

These things are modern handicrafts, the more expensive they are,

If you come to Panjiayuan for a trip, you can spend a hundred dollars or so to buy a cultural relic and bring it back, which can be considered a souvenir.

When you return home, you will have something to brag about, proving that you have been to Panjiayuan.

However, you should never buy those so-called "head goods" that cost thousands of yuan, as well as turquoise and beeswax.

The key is,

Don't touch the Dzi beads! Don't touch the Dzi beads! Don't touch the Dzi beads!

The water is too deep.

The further in they went, the denser the crowd became, and in the end, Hu Xiuwu had no choice but to push the cart forward.

Slowly squeezing forward, Hu Xiuwu finally saw Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan.

Wang Kaixuan was selling a necklace to a foreigner, and Hu Bayi was sitting on a recliner to rest.

Chapter 22 A Shoe

Hu Xiuwu stood aside and watched, without disturbing Wang Kaixuan from doing business.

Wang Kaixuan’s rhetoric was obviously not as good as Da Jin Ya’s, and his stuff was not good either.

He asked for five thousand for a fake pine pendant and tried to bribe the foreigner's translator in front of the foreigner.

Unexpectedly, this foreigner could speak Chinese and was exposed directly.

After that person left,

Hu Xiuwu stepped forward and teased, "Fat brother, your business is not doing well!"

"Hey, Xiu Wu is here!" Wang Kaixuan kicked Hu Bayi's recliner.

"Stop squinting, hurry up, Shugo is here. Look at you, we've been setting up the stall here for so long, but we haven't made any money, and you're not in a hurry."

Hu Bayi covered his face with a palm-leaf fan and said lazily, "Who is squinting? I am just observing!"

When Wang Kaixuan heard this, he said sarcastically, "Hey, what did you observe, Mr. Hu?"

"Did you see that thing?"

Hu Bayi curled his lips, and Wang Kaixuan and Hu Xiuwu looked in the direction Hu Bayi pointed.

A man dressed in tattered cloth, with marks of sunburn on his face from years of farming on the plateau, he looked like an old farmer from the Loess Plateau.

He was holding a rag bag in his arms, and he would walk past each stall.

He went to the stall owner, opened his bag and showed the contents to him.

He asked the stall owner whether he would accept the goods. When the stall owner's price did not meet his expectations, he quietly walked to the next stall.

He went to several stalls in a row but to no avail.

Hu Xiuwu couldn't help laughing when he saw this:

"This is not like the first time I met Fatty, he held the bag tightly, as if he was afraid that others didn't know that he had a treasure in his hands."

Wang Kaixuan was dissatisfied: "Who wants to be such a coward! I am just being cautious. Besides, what Fatty had in his hand was a real good thing, but I don't know what the thing in that master's hand is like."

"It's Monday and business is slow. It's a good opportunity to take advantage of Xiuwu's presence to find out what this guy is up to." Hu Bayi finally made the decision.

As newbies, he and Wang Kaixuan's business has not been good recently.

And the money Xueli Yang gave was spent just about equally;

Not to mention that he couldn't fulfill the boast he made to Shirley Yang before she left, he and Wang Kaixuan could only go to his parents' house for meals for a while.

Although his parents didn't say anything, Hu Bayi, as a grown man in his thirties, felt very uncomfortable.

After all, he is a grown man in his thirties, and he can't always eat at his parents' house.

Hu Bayi was also anxious.
