Chapter 34 Ancient Yu State, Bronze Mask with Nightmare Beast Pattern

The moon was high in the sky, and Qin Jiang and Liu Yize walked out of the inner city.

Looking back, the towering city walls cast shadows, which looked solemn and heavy.

Until the end of the banquet, except for Xu Yanran's reminder not to forget the Lantern Festival on the 15th of next month, no one came to see him and Liu Yize.

I think it was because after the "donation" of silver, everyone and the two of them were a little unhappy.

After seeing Liu Yize off, Qin Jiang returned to Shanmanlou, asked for a pot of hangover tea, and went straight into the house.

Drinking tea, he looked out the window silently.

At this banquet, he also roughly understood what Long Yuesheng meant, that he was going to let him join the county soldiers.

But he didn't actually have this plan.

There are too many rules for county soldiers, and the most important thing is that after becoming a county soldier, it is difficult to have time to learn other martial arts.

He plans to learn more martial arts, even if it is not real martial arts.

Because the potential panel can integrate and deduce martial arts.

Take the essence and discard the dross. The martial arts after integration and deduction will not only be more powerful, but also more suitable for him.

Red Tiger Gang, can't delay any longer, have to join the Red Tiger Gang quickly.

In addition, more potential points must be prepared. Now is not the time to save potential points. He must strive to push the Red Tiger Fist to perfection in the shortest time.

He took out a token from his arms, with the word "Xu" engraved on it.

The Lantern Festival was held in the inner city. This was given to him by Xu Yanran because she was afraid that he would not be able to go to the inner city at that time.

The Xu family is the largest grain merchant in Heishan City, and it is normal to have some privileges.

This is convenient for him. He has to search and visit the antique shops and pawnshops in the inner city.

Somewhere outside Heishan City.

Dozens of torches illuminated the mountains and forests. A young man wearing brocade clothes and holding a folding fan raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, looking forward with gloomy eyes.

After a long time, a man in black, covered in filth, came over and knelt on one knee, holding a token in both hands.

"Sir, the token has been found!" said the man in black.

Young Master Folding Fan took a few steps back, "Can you find the murderer?"

Although he had not received any news from the two guys in the past few days, he did not care too much.

If it were not for the news from the General Pavilion that the token had not been injected with gold and jade for a long time, he really did not know that the two guys were dead.

"It's difficult, but it is certain that the place of death will not exceed a hundred miles. The only cities within a hundred miles are Heishan City and Luoshan City." The man in black said.

"Go check it out." Young Master Folding Fan said.

Now that more than half a month has passed, there is no need to be too anxious. Even if someone finds out, it will be too late.

"Yes! Sir!"

Cuckoo~

There was a sound of flapping wings in the jungle, and a black bird landed on his shoulder like lightning.

He looked at the black bird in surprise and took the letter off his feet.

Unfolding the paper, there was only one line of words, 'My son Liuyun, the secret has arrived, and there will be changes in the Black Mountain City area, return quickly. '

The next morning, Qin Jiang went to the inner city early in the morning, and was allowed to pass directly after showing the token.

Entering the North City again, it was more lively today than yesterday. Without staying too long, he went directly to the antique shop he saw yesterday.

Two burly men were guarding the door, and there were already several people selecting antiques inside.

After going in and taking a look around, he only gained less than a point of potential points.

Seeing this, he directly stated his purpose, "Store, in addition to these on the surface, do you have anything else?"

The clerk standing behind the counter looked at Qin Jiang and didn't care too much, "Sir, if you want to go to the inner room, you must bring at least fifty taels of silver."

Qin Jiang looked at himself along the other party's line of sight, and immediately understood.

When he went out today, he felt that the black gold auspicious cloud robe was troublesome to wear, so he put on the black cloth clothes before.

After rummaging in his pocket for a while, he took out the Xu family token and five silver notes with a face value of ten taels.

The clerk didn't react when he saw the silver notes. After all, it was only fifty taels, and there were still many people in the inner city who could afford it.

However, when he saw the token, he was stunned. Someone from the Xu family?

As a person in the antique business, almost everyone he came into contact with every day was considered rich. From time to time, an upper-class person from the inner city would come. Naturally, someone had taught him how to identify the big people in the city.

Although the Xu family's foundation was in the west of the city, it was not that they did not come to the inner city.

And this token was the mark that only the upper-level members of the Xu family had.

"It turned out to be the master of the Xu family. I was really blinded by the ghost and didn't recognize him! Please come in!"

The clerk walked out quickly from the counter and led Qin Jiang to the inner room.

This scene made the rest of the people in the antique business look sideways.

The Xu family, even for them, was an absolute behemoth.

Walking into the inner room, the specifications were similar to those outside.

However, Qin Jiang took a quick look and even though he didn't know how to distinguish antiques, he could tell that the items inside were much more valuable than those outside.

"Master Liu, this is the master of the Xu family."

The clerk walked over to a middle-aged man who was dozing off at the counter and whispered in his ear.

Bang!

The middle-aged man called Master Liu raised his head suddenly and hit the clerk's chin with the back of his head.

Hiss~

The two sounds of sucking in cold air made Qin Jiang feel his teeth ache.

Bang!

"You idiot! Why are you so close?!"

Master Liu slapped the clerk on the forehead, then looked at Qin Jiang, and quickly stood up and bowed, "Sir, I'm sorry, I made you laugh."

Qin Jiang waved his hand, "It's okay, then let me take a look first?"

"You are welcome."

Master Liu waved at the clerk, "Go away! You don't learn your lesson! I'll have your mother teach you a lesson tomorrow!"

After the clerk left, Qin Jiang looked at the many antiques in the inner room, and touched them from time to time. Master Liu followed behind and introduced them from time to time.

After a while, a bronze animal pattern mask attracted Qin Jiang's attention, and his fingertips gently touched it.

[Potential points absorbing.1.11.20.80.6]

[Potential points: 11.2]

His pupils couldn't help shrinking slightly, and this one alone increased his potential points by nearly five points!

"What is this?" He suppressed his excitement and asked.

Master Liu took a look at the mask, "This is a bronze mask with nightmare beast pattern from the ancient Yu Kingdom, which has a history of at least 3,000 years. According to records, only the priests of the ancient Yu Kingdom are qualified to wear this kind of mask."

Ancient Yu Kingdom?

Qin Jiang frowned slightly, he had never heard of this name.

Master Liu saw Qin Jiang frowning and explained, "This ancient Yu Kingdom was a slave dynasty thousands of years ago. Sacrifices were popular and it was famous for human sacrifice and smelting.

But it seemed to disappear overnight, and all the relevant records were gone. Some of the information we know now is also learned from these unearthed antiques."

"Are there any antiques from the ancient Yu Kingdom?" Qin Jiang asked.

Master Liu shook his head, "No, there is only this one. If you want it, two hundred taels of silver will do."

Qin Jiang retracted his hand after hearing this, and pinched his index and middle fingers unconsciously, "Let me take another look."

Master Liu nodded with some disappointment, "You are welcome."

After a moment, Qin Jiang looked through them all, and the total number of potential points reached 11.8.

Looking at Master Liu, "Are there any other items besides these?"

Master Liu thought for a moment, "There are a few more, but the boss said he wants to keep them, so they can't be sold."

Tap, tap, tap.

The clerk just now walked in, glanced at Qin Jiang, and quickly walked to Master Liu and took out a note.

Master Liu opened it and looked at it, and then looked at Qin Jiang in surprise, "Sir, the boss has ordered not to do business with the Xu family. We have no choice, please forgive me."

Qin Jiang looked at the two of them and nodded slightly.

Master Liu breathed a sigh of relief. What he was most afraid of was this troublemaker. He immediately raised his hand slightly, "Sir, please."

Qin Jiang stepped away, and when he reached the door, he suddenly turned back, "Who is your boss?"

Master Liu was stunned. This person didn't know?

"Li Family in the south of the city."

Qin Jiang nodded, "Thank you."

After leaving the antique shop, he strolled around the South City again, and then went to other districts. After sweeping, it was almost noon.

Looking at the panel,
