Merchant of the Underworld

Chapter 1524: IQ Showdown

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be extremely shocked!

This Liu Laoliu was indeed a well-known veteran in the world of ghosts. With his calculations and a series of steps, he actually deceived everyone.

But what is his purpose in doing this?

I was stunned for a moment and asked: "Sixth Master, why did you set up this trap? What on earth are we doing here?"

If he said it was for money, I wouldn't believe it even to death.

Liu Laoliu stretched out his green hand, raised three fingers and said, "There are three reasons."

"First, I want to know what they are doing."

"The Feng family has been mysteriously organizing several scientific expedition teams, and they have conducted repeated expeditions on the Wusuli River for decades. They don't fish or catch shrimps, they just investigate some hydrological data, especially for I am particularly interested in sturgeons. I can’t figure it out. Could it be that their family members have been sturgeon lovers for generations and are obsessed with them to this extent? This obviously doesn’t make sense.”

"Especially this time, they have invited so many famous experts, they must have made some major new discoveries!" Liu Laoliu said gloomily.

"Although this river is the boundary river between China and Russia, half of it is per person, but if they find any good things here, they must not be allowed to take them away. Now that I look at it, there is indeed a relic in it, and it is most likely that it was left by our ancestors. The things that came down, this makes it even more impossible for them to succeed..."

"Of course, in the final analysis, I'm just a dying old man. Saying I'm patriotic? It means something, but my consciousness is not that noble. As for the second reason, I want to find out The truth about the cause of my son's illness." Liu Laoliu paused and said, "As you know, he has been in a coma for almost thirty years. To outsiders, I have always been exactly as the hospital diagnosed him - it was a cranial nerve shock. What caused the sleep-induced injury was actually that someone had taken away his soul."

"What?" I asked in great astonishment: "Sixth Master, you mean Brother Liu..."

"Yes!" Liu Laoliu nodded: "At that time, I felt something was wrong, and I asked your grandfather for help. After checking it, your grandfather said that someone had captured the soul and made it into a fetus. , As long as the vagina is not broken, he will never die, but he will never wake up."

"Your grandfather did this for three days on Xiaoliuzi's bedside, and a mouthful of old blood came out from exhaustion. He still couldn't save it, but he also got a clue that the evil thing was related to the waterway. He warned me that I could only search secretly. If that person notices it, the yin object may be destroyed, and Xiao Liuzi won't even be able to become a vegetative state."

"So, I announced to the outside world that it was just a vegetative state and had nothing to do with witchcraft. I never mentioned it to outsiders."

"If it hadn't been for this, I would have retired a long time ago. Over the years, I have been investigating quietly and secretly, but I have never found any valuable clues. It just so happened that the person William found this time , most of them are masters on the waterway, and they are my only suspects! Maybe I can find something, or directly identify the real culprit."

When Liu Laoliu said this, his green hands couldn't help but tremble violently.

Liu Laoliu picked up the teacup, drank it all in one gulp, looked at me and said: "If I lied, I really didn't lie to you. At least I asked you for help. Although I entered the industry much earlier than you, I was a monk after all. , and my talents are limited, so I am far inferior to you in terms of ability. In addition, time is not forgiving, and my body and bones are getting worse day by day. If I really need to use my hands or something, how can my old bones withstand the torment? I really need to find a satisfactory helper, and after much thought, you are the only one who is most suitable."

"But this time, after all, it's different from the past. It's not just a simple business of shady things. Not to mention what the situation is like in the place where we are going, there are already many masters on this ship, and the enemies and friends are unpredictable. It is really very dangerous. I really can't bear to let you take this risk with me! But just when I was hesitating, the first grade of junior high school found me."

"First grade of junior high school?" I was a little surprised.

I haven't seen him since I came back from Devil's Valley and stayed there for a short time. Thinking about it, I haven't heard from him for a long time. What was he doing with Liu Laoliu?

Liu Laoliu nodded and said: "On the first day of the month, I said that the undercover agents sent by the Zhang family in Longquan Villa took great risks to release a message, saying that the closed ancient land of Longquan Villa had been opened, and it was probably that it had been in retreat. Which one of the three supreme elders of spring, summer and autumn has left seclusion."

"Not long ago, Mr. Dong led many masters to kill you in the Devil's Valley, but in the end the whole army was wiped out. Longquan Villa didn't understand the situation for a while, so he didn't act rashly. But this time there are masters again. When you get out of seclusion, you will surely be settled with old and new scores, and you will be stabbed."

"But who is coming out of seclusion this time? What level of cultivation he has achieved is unknown. Han Laoliu and Xiao Bailong's injuries have not healed. Besides, they have important things to deal with right now, and they can't be distracted for a while. Kai couldn’t take care of you, so he asked me to take you to a relatively safe place.”

"The first grade of junior high school knows your temperament very well. I am afraid that if I tell you directly, you will not leave, but will fight to the end. Therefore, he also agrees to trick you out. No matter where he goes, he just needs to leave Wuhan temporarily to ensure safety. .”

"When I think about it, William's ship is a good place. With so many masters gathered here, even if Longquan Villa traces it, they may not dare to take action! When the time comes, I will try to find a way to interfere with it, or they will also take advantage of it. Not much cheaper.”

"So, by killing three birds with one stone, I devised this scheme, and finally let us two get on the pirate ship."

As Liu Laoliu spoke, he picked up the tea bowl and said, "You kid, don't blame me for lying to you! Come on, drink this cup of tea and just think that I, the old man, made a mistake by accompanying you."

How could this be wrong?

Not to mention, it was for my safety that he took so much trouble to lead me here. Even if he proposed to track down the murderer who persecuted Sixth Brother, I would be obliged to do so.

"Master Liu, what you said is serious." I quickly took the tea cup: "It's not too late for me to thank you. Don't worry, I, Zhang Jiulin, will never let you make any mistakes!"

As soon as Liu Laoliu heard this, he immediately held the cup in both hands with a serious face, bowed slightly, and then drank it all.

This is tea instead of wine, respecting the young with the elder, everything goes without saying!

I quickly drank it all in one gulp.

"Sixth Master." I put down the teacup, leaned forward, and said with a solemn expression: "Just now, William mentioned a secret passed down from their family..."
