The Emperor of the Human Race, a Versatile Mage

Chapter 86 The fourth child bites the hook, wealth attracts people's hearts

-------
"Third sister-in-law, if you need any help in the future, just ask."

A dry-looking little old man walked out of a small courtyard, where a middle-aged woman escorted him out.

"Fourth, is it really impossible to get Xiaotian's bones out?" the woman asked with tears in her eyes.

"Third sister-in-law, it's not like you don't know anything about our profession. When in danger, it would be good if someone comes back alive to report the news. Don't think too much. It is serious to raise Xiaotian's two children well."

Qi Yongyi comforted her.

This is what they do in this business. You have to make money to survive for at least three years. If something happens to you, you won't even be able to get your bones back.

"I know, it's just that these two children lost their father at such a young age. I..."

As the woman spoke, tears fell again.

Qi Laosi glanced at the two children, one large and one young, in the yard. They were both less than ten years old, and they were looking out from the window.

"The child is watching."

Qi Laosi's cell phone vibrated twice in his pocket. He took it out and read the incoming message, then hurriedly left, leaving a message: "I still have something to do, third sister-in-law, please go back first."

He returned to his home, a two-story farmhouse with mud-gray exterior walls that looked very ordinary.

But once you enter, the furniture and furnishings inside are all warm-toned and brightly colored, and it's like a completely different world from the outside.

He sat down on the brown leather sofa and called the middleman back.

"Hey, it's me, Qi Laosi, who is this client?"

"do not know?"

"Oh, a master hunter who has completed hundreds of commissions can indeed be contacted."

After hanging up the phone, Qi Laosi thought.

The job introduced to him by the middleman this time was found by a master hunter on his own initiative. Although he didn't know the exact information about the other party - because the Hunter Alliance's management in this area is still very strict, at least they didn't have that way to get it - —But the other party’s commission completion volume and commission completion rate are very high. He is considered a hunter with a guaranteed reputation, and his hunter level has been upgraded to the hunter master level.

Qi Laosi felt that this order could be contacted first to see the situation.

It's all the fault of those foreigners who didn't listen to the advice and thought they had two brushes to dig up the ancient tomb, causing several of their descendants to be trapped in it.

Now when he thinks about it, he feels so angry that his stomach hurts!
"Fucking foreigners, I will bury you in it next time!"

Qi Laosi cursed and then dialed the number given by the middleman.

The person who answered the phone sounded like a young man, but as he talked to the other party, Qi Laosi's eyes gradually widened.

He ended the call as calmly as possible. When the call was hung up, he threw the phone aside with a surprised expression.

"Earth Holy Spring!"

"It turned out to be news about the Earthly Holy Spring!"

"It is recorded in the books left by our ancestors that the holy springs do exist in various places. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a key, and I came across it!"

He jumped up excitedly, getting stronger with age, and then walked to the storage room in three steps and two steps at a time.Press the switch, and a downward staircase will appear on the floor.

He took a light magic stone and walked in.

Underground is a small storage room with a large number of yellowed books, broken stone tablets, pottery, bronzes, and all kinds of utensils crowded here, each one covered with traces of history.

Qi Laosi embedded the light magic stone in the groove of the wall, then carefully pulled out a yellowed thread-bound book from the bookshelf, and gently opened the pages.

"Lao Liu's grandson brought back something called a scanner last time. It can scan the contents of ancient books into a computer and copy them to a memory card."

He glanced at the ancient books on one wall in his small basement and said, "Let's get one if you have time. Otherwise, if something breaks one day, future generations won't be able to see it. Even if you don't have a scanner, you should take pictures one by one." , passed on to future generations.”

He took out a pair of reading glasses from his pocket and reread the book he had read before word for word.

He is old.

Don't look at that middle-aged woman, he calls her third aunt. That's because his third brother made money back then and married a young and beautiful daughter-in-law, who is 18 years younger than him, so she is a generation behind her.

At that time, many people in the village thought that the other party was a vixen who wanted to make money. After all, people in their line of work really had some wealth.

But decades have passed, and reality has slapped many people in the face. The couple with an 18-year age difference are living a pretty good life, but their third brother doesn’t even know where he died. He didn’t tell anyone the specific location when he went out. There was only a general area to search for the ancient tomb, and anyway, I never came back.

This time, it was Qi Guangtian, the third brother's son, who failed to come back, and there were several younger generations buried underground together. He spent a lot of time just dealing with this matter in the two days since he came back.

You know, he also suffered a heavy loss. A large amount of things he bought with a lot of money were buried underneath with people, and he lost most of the coffin to put it in.

Qi Laosi took off his reading glasses and rubbed the bridge of his nose, "What is the key to this holy spring? Treasure or ancient tomb?"

He checked the ancient books but couldn't get a clear answer.

After all, our ancestors only accidentally discovered traces of the Earthly Holy Spring in many places. They also saw records about the Earthly Holy Spring on an antique, and concluded that the Earthly Holy Spring existed thousands of years ago.

Then, the ancestor recorded his discovery in his memoirs. The antique was only seen by the ancestor and was not left behind.

And this book was written almost 200 years ago, and it was impossible for him to call his ancestors out of the ground to question them. After all, he was not a necromancer.

"Does the Holy Spring that existed at least 1000 years ago continue to this day?"

His professional sense of smell told Qi Laosi that there was definitely something going on in this holy spring!

He might be able to make a lot of money back from the coffin he lost last time. After all, something like the Earthly Holy Spring is worth a lot of money in itself, let alone something that uses the Earthly Holy Spring as a key to hide it. It is definitely much more valuable than the Holy Spring.

There are no more clues at home. It seems that the only choice is to go to Jianghan to find Mr. He and see what clues he has.

"Damn it, done it!"

Those bastard gringos had screwed him over, and now he really wanted to take on any job to make up for the losses.

He left the basement, turned off the machine, and went out.

He wanted to find a few younger members of his family to work with him. After all, he was getting older and cherished his life more and more. Even when he went to the tomb, he would let the young people go down and he would guide him from behind.

Even though he had just failed once and killed many people, with his qualifications, as long as he shouted, a lot of people would come forward. Who wouldn't want to make money?
