Dragon Pattern Roll Set

Chapter 558 [Peeling off cocoons]

Yan Xun talked about the past to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang.

"You should have heard about the events when I was young, so I won't repeat them." Yan Kip recalled the past, "People in the world think that Fan Ju accumulated wealth by defrauding people and stealing money. That's true, but it's not just that. , These golds are not all property, there is also a huge amount of wealth, the amount is several times the total number of these golds, which once belonged to Fan Ju, but they have not been discovered, and even I don’t know where they are.”

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were surprised—what kind of wealth is so powerful?

"It was also a coincidence." Yan Jian said, "By chance, we lied to an old man about karma and so on. In the end, he told us one thing... Speaking of which, this It has something to do with him."

Zhan Zhao was slightly puzzled, "Him?"

Yan Yan smiled lightly and nodded.

Zhan Zhao frowned, and asked, "You mean Uncle Xiao Huo?"

"Hehe." Yan Yan nodded, "That's right, his name is Wu Yifu now..."

"What does it have to do with Uncle Xiaohuo?" Zhan Zhao was a little concerned.

"The Battle of Guancheng..." Yan Yan said slowly, "It was General You Lian's last battle...he won this battle that was almost impossible to win, but..."

"But he lost everything." Zhan Zhao said indifferently, "Everyone thinks he died of overwork and coughing up blood because of some battle he fought in."

Yan Kip nodded, "Do you know the reason why this battle broke out?"

"Because there are rumors that there is a batch of gold in the city of Guancheng." Zhan Zhao nodded, "It was left behind by the Eagle Dynasty back then. At that time, there was a lot of war, and the difference in strength between each other was not too big. Who can get this wealth? Whoever can rule the world."

Yan Kip nodded, "Yeah."

"But there is no such money in Guancheng." Zhan Zhao said.

"Actually, there are." Yan Qiao sighed, "It was just transferred away?"

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly, pointed at Yan Jian, and then at himself, "I heard from Uncle Xiaofu that if he transfers the gold away, there is no reason for him to lie to me."

"Who said he turned it away?" Yan Qiao shook his head, "It was someone else who turned it away."

"Who is so capable?" Zhan Zhao felt unbelievable.

"The person he trusts the most." Yan Kip sighed softly.

Zhan Zhao's face turned ugly.

Bai Yutang was at a loss when he heard this, but he didn't delve into it. He didn't really want to find out what happened to Wu Yifu back then, or in other words, Fifth Master wasn't very interested in things that others didn't want to mention.

"Anyway, I'm not very clear about everything that happened during this period... I only know that the last batch of gold was not shipped out, but was hidden. Only one person in this world knows where it is." Yan Kip said, "But that man died very early."

Zhan Zhao asked, "How much is that gold?"

"Eagle Dynasty's property is quite magnificent. Speaking of it, it is also your family's property." Yan Jian wanted to laugh, "After that person hid the gold, he only left a painting to mark the location of the gold. According to legend, the painting was divided into three parts and handed over to different people for safekeeping."

"A treasure map?" Bai Yutang asked.

"It's not a treasure map, it's just a painting." Yan Jian said, "In this world, only one person can understand this painting. In other words, in this world, only one person can find this batch of gold. That People stole it from him...and left it to him in the end, not to anyone else."

Zhan Zhao frowned slightly, "You mean, if those three paintings are found, only Uncle Xiaohuo can use the paintings to find the place where the gold was hidden back then?"

"Yeah!" Yan Yan nodded, "Because these three paintings are completely different from ordinary treasure maps, even if you get them, you still can't understand them, so they have become a veritable 'tasteless to eat, but it's a pity to throw them away'. Do whatever it takes to get the key, but don't know where the door is."

"Then what happened afterwards?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"Later, let's talk about the cheated old man I mentioned earlier." Yan Jian continued, "He told me a secret."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang can be considered to have heard the main point. Although the matter of Wu Yifu was mentioned intermittently, the cause and effect are basically understood.

"There is a three-headed tattoo on that old man's back." Yan Kip said, "It's the three-headed Jintuo."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned, and asked in unison, "Three heads?"

Yan Kip nodded, "The three-headed Jintuo is like a kind of god to him, and is extremely worshipped."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang thought about it, it was equivalent to some kind of cult.

"So, I found a colleague." Yan Kip smiled faintly.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang knew it well, "The same as you, they are organized liars, but if you go through Fan Ju, they go through Three-headed Jintuo?"

"He's much more ruthless than me!" Yan Yan smiled wryly, "I'm already bad enough, the sect of the Three-Headed Jintuo is ten or twenty times worse than me."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned - so bad?

"Anyone who joins the religion, your wealth and property belong to them. Not only that, but also help to cheat other people's money, and you are not allowed to leave. As long as you have this tattoo on your back, you will work for them all your life. , if you want to run, then there is only one dead end." Yan Kip said, "Such a terrible organization, how can I let it exist in the world, otherwise I will have nothing to do, right?"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were a little speechless, and had a premonition that the next thing would be the legendary one—black eat black!

"Three-headed Jintuo's sect is very low-key and mysterious. I didn't know where to start at first, but God helped me. The organization fell apart, and there were internal strife because of the uneven distribution of spoils." Yan Xing continued. "Later I found out that the reason why the three-headed Jintuo has three heads is because they are three different people who have the final say. Head, three sub-teachers."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang instantly understood what happened, and asked, "So the three-headed tattoo became a single-headed tattoo?"

Yan Kip nodded, "At that time, it was equivalent to dividing the family. In addition to dividing property, people were also divided. Those believers chose for themselves. Whoever you want to follow, just wash off the other two tattoos on your body, and you can follow whoever you keep. .”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang understood.

"Did the old man get tattoos later?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"I don't know about this. At such an old age, he might have died when the family was divided." Yan Jian shook his head, "After they divided the family property equally, they each went underground and continued to do evil, but... It is better to rob yourself than others."

Bai Yutang nodded, "The people on the left know what treasures are in the hands of the people on the right, so they will go after the people on the right, and the people in the middle also know what the other two have...so it became Take your own people and rob your own people?"

"That's right!" Yan Jian smiled, "So a sect is like a country. It is divided first and then disintegrated. The tree falls and the monkeys disperse, and the monkeys are just monkeys. They are inhuman."

"What does that have to do with that batch of gold?" Zhan Zhao continued to ask.

"I heard from that old man that the three portraits all fell into the hands of the three bosses of Santou Jintuo." Yan Jian said, "I guess when the family was divided later, it was divided into three, and it became a success. This group has been fighting among themselves for many years. Although the scale has become smaller, it has become more brutal, and they often come to disturb my business, plus..."

"Plus." Before he finished speaking, Zhan Zhao sneered, "You want those three paintings, don't you?"

Yan Jian also smiled and nodded, "Back then I was a liar, greedy, and I would do anything for money."

"You took advantage of each other's disintegration, so you ate them one by one and snatched the treasure?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Yan Kip nodded, "I not only snatched the baby, I also snatched those three paintings!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were surprised.

"The family of the three-headed Jintuo is rich, and the statue of the Jintuo is the best proof of their existence." Yan Jian said, "I later melted down the golden statue and cast it into gold bricks, so the golden Buddha , should not exist!"

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang secretly sorted out the clues, and it turned out that this was the process.

"What happened to the deception case in Jiangsu and Zhejiang 20 years ago, and those official ships you sold?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"After Fan Ju grew up, I soon suffered the same fate as the Three-Headed Jintuo Sect, betrayed by my own people and hunted down by my enemies." Yan Jian said lightly, "The tree attracts wind, and the court did not let me go in the end. Fan Ju also fell apart. I brought some people, changed their appearance, and became the boss of selling rice. I was not too young when I retired. After experiencing the changes in the world, I have long had no ambition. I just want to spend my old age in peace. Most of the people who left together, like me, are older, but young people will not be reconciled! The case in Jiangsu and Zhejiang 20 years ago was committed by those young people who stayed. It's getting harder to do, unlike in troubled times! No one cares about troubled times! But now the imperial court has people in their hands, and the army can come in tens of thousands. No sect in the world can stop it, let alone a bunch of shady ones. You are a liar. The two ships of gold that were confiscated by the late emperor included the property I left behind, and some were cheated by them later, otherwise how could there be such a large amount?"

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded.

"Originally, this matter had nothing to do with me, but 20 years ago, those former subordinates of mine suddenly came to me with a fleet." Yan Jian said helplessly, "They robbed the imperial fleet and killed officers and soldiers. , stole the gold, but..."

Zhan Zhao frowned slightly, "But?"

"Someone acted preemptively!" Yan Yan said, "I don't know if these official ships have been robbed by people without anyone knowing it, or they have been tampered with long ago. They took such a risk. The boat that was snatched back at great risk was actually empty inside!"

"Empty ship?" Zhan Zhao wondered, "Is the gold missing?"

Yan Kip nodded, "That's right! And later I heard from my former subordinates that they were not actually trying to grab gold, or in other words, not just for gold."

Bai Yutang frowned, "Could it be that those paintings are also on the boat?"

"That's right!" Yan Kip nodded, "No matter who it is, someone will strike first! Those of my subordinates made a fool of themselves, but they were also charged with robbing and killing an official ship. They wanted to ransack the house! They found me , I am in a dilemma, if I don't help them, then the result may be known by the court, and these are my brothers who have been in trouble together, so I helped sell those boats and gave them the proceeds of selling the boats. They went off to find other ways."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang roughly clarified a timeline through Yan Jian's narration. In addition, they also deduced that the strange black ship that Lin Ziwen and the others encountered back then, and the strange man they painted for them, might have something to do with this incident. The missing gold is related, and the three elusive paintings that have been appearing in this case may be the three legendary paintings!

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang got the general idea, but there were still many details that they didn't understand, especially about the Jin family... What does the Jin family have to do with this case?In addition, in addition to real gold, there is also a batch of strange fake gold. What are these fake gold used for?
