Chapter 262 Procrastination

Chapter 258

Five days later, Su Taoyi finally came to news that he found a person who thought he knew ancient Tibetan in an antique shop. However, this person asked for a high price and asked for 200,000 yuan. However, he was still a tough person and had participated in tomb robbery.

Uncle Tai passed the news to Xue Tianqi, but Xue Tianqi was very happy and immediately agreed to all his requests.

The man's name is Tang Dayuan, who is in his forties. He is a small owner of an antique shop. He likes to study ancient Tibetan language and has made great achievements over time.

Tang Dayuan received the down payment of 200,000 yuan, and immediately rushed to ***. Xue Tianqi also made another arrangement. Xue Xiaobao took hundreds of people to a grassland according to the address given by his fourth uncle. Everyone was puzzled, but no one dared to ask more. I remember that the place I went to last time was the unmanned land in the Gobi Desert. Now it is similar to the last time, and there is no one who can be seen within a radius of a hundred miles.

Xue Xiaobao was also puzzled. The scenery here is good, but it is really different to say that it is the entrance to the ancient tomb. He remembered Fatty Meng said that the ancient tomb is in the valley, and it is an endless grassland. However, there are indeed several mountains in the distance.

Xue Xiaobao looked at the mountains in the distance, and Xiao Quan came to him and looked at the mountains in the distance according to his gaze. He thought to himself: Where is it?

"Xiaobao, we are there..."

"I don't know." Xue Xiaobao said, and walked towards the off-road vehicle. After getting on the vehicle, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Everyone was inexplicably at a loss. Should they set up camp or take a temporary rest? Everyone didn't understand and they all started to suspect.

Old Man Zhang went to find Xue Xiaobao, but when he saw him sleeping, he didn't ask again. In a blink of an eye, it was getting dark, so Old Man Zhang ordered someone to camp on the spot.

When the people from other families saw the Zhang family set up camp, they followed suit. Xue Xiaobao never got off the car and didn't even eat dinner, so no one dared to call him. Min Jing wanted to call him for dinner at first, but was stopped by Old Man Zhang.

"Old Zhang, see what Xue Xiaobao means." Min Jing sat by the bonfire, leaning against the jerky.

"What else can it mean? Let's go to the destination. But Xue Xiaobao is waiting for someone to answer. We'd better not ask. He is annoyed now." Old Man Zhang said with a smile.

Min Jing hesitated: "Will we be fooled by the Xue family like we did last time? I remember that everyone was plotted by Xue Tianqi during the last trip to the Western Regions. Let's be careful."

"Actually, this trip is different from the past. The Qin family wants to use us to hold Xue Tianqi, and Xue Tianqi also wants us to hold Qin family. So we are both beneficial and harmful to them. It is not what you think." Old Man Zhang said.

"Oh, so that's it." Min Jing thought for a while, and said again: "Then should we reach an agreement with one of them so that the other families will not be taken first."

"No hurry, no hurry. The Qin family will take the initiative to find us, wait." Old Man Zhang took a sip of wine and said.

Min Jing was still talking, but Xiao Quan came over at this time and said with a smile: "Old Zhang, drinking alone isn't it bland? Come on, I'll pay you a few drinks."

"Okay, come on, take a sip to warm up your body first. It's really cold tonight." Old Man Zhang said.

"Yes, it's even colder behind." Xiao Quan said, looking up at the mountain in the distance.

Old man Zhang smiled and said, "Young Master Xiao has something to say."

"Haha, Mr. Zhang understands people, why should he ask questions clearly?" Xiao Quan said with a smile.

"Hahaha, you young young people are better than the other. It's time for us old people to give way. This is the world of your young people. I will not come out to participate in your affairs again in the future." Old Man Zhang took a sip of wine and sighed.

He couldn't help but think of the scene of fighting with Xue Batian when he was young. Isn't it like now, for his family and for his future, he will fight and grab it. Looking back now, it seems to be right in front of him.

"I'm old, I'm really old." Old Man Zhang said to himself, drinking sip after sip.

Seeing this, Xiao Quan sighed and said, "Old man, can you tell your stories from your youth so that we young people can learn and learn."

"Haha, okay, I'll tell you today, the Battle of Wushan." When Old Man Zhang talked about this, his temperament changed in vain, as if he had become much younger.

The Battle of Wushan is a secret operation among the twelve gates. Of course, after many years, it is no longer a secret.

Old Man Zhang’s storytelling quickly attracted a lot of people to watch because they all wanted to know some things about the older generation, especially these things were related to their own family.

As Old Man Zhang told the story, everyone understood. It turned out that the wife of one of the twelve sects was snatched by the locals in Wushan. At that time, the twelve sects were very united and did not want to be so chaotic now. After hearing the news, the twelve sects organized this assassination. The person who snatched the bride was a local bully, and he was always arrogant. The wife he snatched was also a local, and he met him. In that bloody battle, Xue Batian was also present. If the number of murders was in the first place, Zhang ranked first, killing seven people in total. He rescued the woman unscathed.

Everyone couldn't help but feel heartbroken when they listened to Old Man Zhang's description of his murder. This old man turned out to be a murderer without blinking. Everyone warned themselves in their hearts that they must stay away from this old man if they are fine, and everyone was wary of Old Man Zhang.

The next morning, Xue Xiaobao woke up and found something to fill his stomach.

"Hey, everyone gets up. I have something to say." Xue Xiaobao said loudly.

It was already dawn, and many people were not suitable for the plateau climate and could not fall asleep. At this time, they heard that Xue Xiaobao was about to announce the matter, so they hurried to notify the masters of each family.

After a while, Xue Xiaobao saw that the person was almost here, and said, "I am here in the place we are here now. You have also seen it. This is the situation, and this is the thing. It is still time for you to go back now."

"Mr. Xue, what do you mean?" Min Jing asked.

"What does it mean? The meaning is very simple. Aren't you going to come with me? Now that you are at the station, whether you stay or leave, it has nothing to do with me anyway, and I have done what I promised you." Xue Xiaobao shirked all the responsibilities.

"Young Master Xue, if you bring us here, you must have a conversation. The endless grasslands, can you take us to see the scenery?"

"Yes, I'll always have an explanation when I come from afar."

Some people take the lead, so naturally some people follow suit. But then again, Xue Xiaobao is indeed a bit inappropriate to do this.

"Ha! Did I ask you to come? You must follow me?" Xue Xiaobao said disdainfully.

"Okay, let's follow Mr. Xue. I want to see how long Mr. Xue can stay here."

"Tsk! Get me to the army..." Xue Xiaobao grinned and shouted.

"Hey! You bite and eat bite by bite. You have to go step by step. You can't become fat in one bite, nor can you die of others in one step." Old man Zhang stood up and said, "Since Mr. Xue has brought us here, there is naturally his reason. Let's wait."

After Old Man Zhang's words, everyone understood it, that is, keep calm, don't be anxious, don't force it. Let it go naturally and see what the hell is selling in Xue Xiaobao's gourd.

Xue Xiaobao hated Old Man Zhang to death. He originally wanted to anger these people, so it would be better to excite some people, but unexpectedly, this old guy broke his wishful thinking. Xue Xiaobao lost his orders and had to go back to the car to continue sleeping.

Old Man Zhang smiled meaningfully and murmured: "This little guy really has some skills and wants to use the method of provoking us. Haha, you are still too young, little guy.

Xue Xiaoao's plan was discovered by Old Man Zhang, but they did not give up. When they were having lunch, he suddenly attacked and said that he wanted to live in the city.

Everyone was not expressing their opinions, but turned their attention to Old Man Zhang.

"Then let's live in the city. We really want to go to the city to buy some supplies." Old Man Zhang said.

Xue Xiaobao nodded and said nothing. After lunch, he got into the car to sleep. In short, the days of eating and sleeping were five days long. Xue Tianqi finally sent someone to come. Of course, everyone knew that this person was the leader. Xue Xiaobao knew him and had seen this person next to Uncle Fourth, but he didn't know his name.

"Young Master Xiaobao, the Fourth Master has instructions to ask you to delay for a few days no matter what." The man said.

"Okay, you go back first." After Xue Xiaobao said that, he walked towards them and shouted loudly: "I said a few days ago that I would like to live in the city for a few days, and you all agreed. You can buy some things you need." After Xue Xiaobao said that, he got in the car again.

Everyone quickly packed up their things and got into the car, but the Xia family and Ma family were very slow to clean up, as if they were deliberately delaying time.

Xue Xiaobao walked the most in time, and the rest followed behind. After walking for a long time, Old Man Zhang found something was wrong. The boy seemed to be playing luring the tiger away from the mountain. He hurriedly ordered someone to stop, then get off the car and look at the vehicle behind.

"No, there are many cars missing?" Old Man Zhang saw the problem at a glance.

"Old man, we also feel a little strange. We have never seen the convoys of the Xia family and the Ma family." said the driver beside Old Man Zhang.

"What? The Xia family and the Ma family did not follow me?" Old Man Zhang frowned and asked.

"Yes, they packed things very slowly and fell to the end. At that time, everyone was very panicked and didn't pay attention to them. But after walking for so long, they didn't see the convoys of their two families." The driver said.

"Little bastard. As expected, I pulled the tiger away from the mountain and deliberately delayed it. It seems that the Xia family and the Ma family are in the same mind as Xue Xiaobao." Old Man Zhang said.

"Old man, why don't we go back?" said the driver.
