Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

The middle-aged man glanced at Na Hong and said, "Old Na, is the other half of the map in the hands of your aunt? Why don't we find a way to find that old thing? Once we put the small half of the map together, won't we find the treasure?"

Na Hong shook her head and said, "The old lady has a bad temper. If we use force, she will definitely perish with us. If our affairs are exposed, the government will definitely not let us go. We still have to find a way to make her hand it over voluntarily. Xiao Wu, when the time comes, ask your father to deliver the letter. I believe my aunt will know what is good for her."

On the other side, Mr. Jin Sanye trotted all the way to a small courtyard. When Mr. Jin Sanye's son Jin Yuming saw his father coming back with his son, he finally felt relieved. Jin Yuming sighed and said, "Dad, where did you take Xiaohua? My husband and I are so worried."

Master Jin snorted coldly and said, "You two hurry up and come in, I have something to discuss with you two." His daughter-in-law Ai Hongcui said puzzledly, "Dad, what's the matter with you old man?" Master Jin walked into the house with his son and daughter-in-law, and said unfriendlyly, "Wait a minute, you two hurry up and open a letter of introduction from the street, saying that your old aunt in the three northeastern provinces has passed away, and you two must go to the funeral."

Jin Yuming was stunned and said, "Ah, old aunt, what old aunt?" Jin Sanye said, "You should do whatever I say. This is a big deal. You two should take Xiaohua and leave quickly." Jin Yuming said, "Dad, what's the matter? Don't keep us in suspense. Tell us quickly."

Ai Yucui said, "Yes, Dad. Your words are incoherent and make us feel dizzy. Just tell us what happened so that we can be prepared." Master Jin sighed and told him what happened today in a concise manner.

Jin Yuming was shocked and said, "What did you say? Why did those people from the Secret Service target you?" Jin Sanye waved his hand and said, "I always feel that the man is not from the Secret Service, but more like a liar." Jin Yuming was relieved and said, "Then what are you afraid of? He is just a liar anyway. What can he do to me?"

Uncle Jin San shook his head and said, "I'm so old now, there are some things I have to think about more than you young people. I always feel that these people have bad intentions. Besides, how many people who want to covet that treasure are good people? I'm already over 60 years old, and I've lived enough in this life. The only thing I'm worried about is you two. This is my personal jade pendant. I'll give it to your uncle, and then you and your wife can change your names and live well there."

Listening to his father's last words to Liu, Jin Yuming felt even worse. He had been raised by his father with great care since he was a child. Now that he was gone and put his father on the brink of danger, he was really an incompetent son.

Mr. Jin looked at his sons. As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his father. As a father, he knew what his son was thinking. Mr. Jin smiled bitterly and said, "You two, as an elder, it is the greatest comfort to see your children live well. Before my father died, he said that this batch of treasures is not wealth, but a demon that will destroy a family. I didn't believe it before, but now I finally believe it."

Ai Hongcui thought for a while and asked, "Dad, I've also heard about the legend of this treasure from the elders in my family. Is it true or false? The last emperor back then..." Master Jin San sighed, nodded and said, "Girl, I can honestly tell you that this treasure is real. But this treasure is not available to anyone who wants to take it. Anyone who dares to take it will pay the price with his life. Before my father died, he repeatedly warned me not to try to get hold of this treasure. When I was young, I didn't believe in evil, and I once led a group of people to try to dig up this treasure."

"But what I racked my brains for is that before we even started, several people in the team died. The deaths of some of them were quite horrific, not something that ordinary people could do. When I was young, I met an old man who told me not to take things that did not belong to me. Especially the treasure of the last emperor, it seemed that someone had cursed it before his death. Okay, that's all we have to say. You two should go to the street office to get a letter of introduction. It will cost you a little more money if you can get a letter of introduction for a few more days."

Jin Yuming nodded. Although he couldn't bear to see his father stay alone in Baocheng, his father was right. If the couple didn't leave, what would they do if those people hurt their son? Now they only have this one child in the Jin family. If there is an accident, they will never see their ancestors again.

Inside the city, in the house of Old Lady Long in the Red Star Courtyard, the deaf old lady's face was very dark. She looked at a letter on the table and cursed with gritted teeth, "Damn it, do you really think I'm easy to bully? You guys want to kill me one by one, so I can only strike first. I've been lurking for so many years, and I still want that batch of treasures? Damn it, those things should belong to me."

The old lady picked up the brush beside her, dipped it in ink, and wrote a few words on the paper: "Bogu Pavilion, fire." A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She picked up the walking stick beside her, tidied her hair, and then went out with the walking stick.

Yang Ruihua looked at Old Lady Long who came out alone with a cane, and said curiously, "Hey, old lady, where are you going so late at night? Be careful on the road." Old Lady Long smiled and said, "I had a full meal tonight, so I wanted to go out for a walk to digest the food. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight. Old Yan, I don't want to chat with you anymore, you are so busy here."

Yang Ruihua smiled and said, "Okay, please don't go too far." Although the lighting facilities in the old city at night were not as good as those in later generations, it was still the capital, and Nanluoguxiang was still equipped with street lights. People who had a full meal at night would walk outside to digest their food, so Yang Ruihua didn't care too much. Their family didn't have this habit. The longer the food stayed in the stomach, the better.
