Daomu Biji: Restart

Book 1: Chapter 134

I spent all morning checking the photos the others had secretly taken outside. I taped a newspaper to the wall and stuck the photos on it one by one to form a ring. I now knew all the details of the whole tulou. I found that many of those people were a little famous in the business, so the boss on the fourth floor had to be very rich.

Bai Haotian took a lot of photos of the young man, which I lined up on the wall. After looking at them carefully, I really felt like I had seen him before.

I squinted and then felt a little surprised. This person had been gone for a long time, so how could they suddenly appear now? At first, I thought the copper coins were giving me a hint. But after looking at them carefully for a long time, I found that it wasnt the case at all.

I was pretty certain that the copper coins were the same ones that that person had brought with them before. This kind of copper coin was so rare that it couldnt be a coincidence.

I looked at Bai Haotian. "Did you learn anything about this person?"

Bai Haotian shook her head. "I suddenly went up to ask, but I didnt know what to say."

Fatty also looked at the photo before glancing at me, "Is it?"

Bai Haotian didnt understand what we were talking about. Fatty hooked his arm around her neck and said gravely, "Go change into a miniskirt, take your phone, and ask this guy take a picture of you. After that, thank him and get his WeChat info. You can chat with him in the middle of the night and find out who he is."

Bai Haotian looked at her legs, "He wont add me on WeChat even if I change into a miniskirt."

"Trust me, Fatty said. Just look at this guy. He usually has a lot of girlfriends, but now hes been stuck in the wilderness for a long time. Youre as beautiful as a fairy when you put on makeup."

Bai Haotian looked at me and blushed. She hesitated for a long time before saying, "I can't betray Little Master Three."

Fatty looked at me and then pointed from me to her. I touched Bai Haotian's head, "Speak properly. Use your words."

Fatty said to Bai Haotian, "Legs are worthless. It's not a betrayal to show them to others. Look at what any other girl wears out on the street. It's called scenery."

I told Fatty not to be so hard on her. Bai Haotian was a girl who didnt like to wear skirts. "What do you mean? Fatty asked. Youd let me wear a miniskirt, right? If you have one, I'll try it on. But its not my fault if someone recognizes me."

I touched my chin, but knew that it was useless. In every single photo, the young man looked straight at the camera. He was an extremely vigilant person and definitely wasn't a pushover.

We all sat down to discuss our plan of action. I pointed to the wall and said, "The information stated that the entrance to the tomb is a calling spring, which is usually dry. When you shout, spring water will come gushing out. It should be in the nearby mountains where theres no water. The entrance should be a small gap. Xiao Hua is definitely a nocturnal animal, so hell only go out in the middle of the night. Well sleep in the afternoon and follow them when they set off. Remember, Xiao Hua is very cautious, so we cant follow him straight from the tulou. At eight o'clock tonight, well scatter and go to the nearby farmhouses. When you see them coming out, dont use your flashlights. Just follow their lights. We just need to know which direction theyre going in. Well stop when we get to a certain area. Dont follow them to the spring; otherwise, youll definitely be discovered."

Everyone nodded. "Theres no signal when you enter the mountains and Xiao Hua and the others dont use walkie-talkies since they can be hijacked. Theyll probably be communicating with bat whistles. I heard that Liu Sang is also on the team and refusing to leave, so we can't communicate with each other. Everyone must pay attention to their safety. Its dangerous to climb mountains in the dark. If I had any money, Id get us a few night-vision goggles. But now we can only rely on our brains to make up for it. Come on, everyone."

After the meeting was over, everyone lay down and went to sleep. It was six o'clock when they woke up in a daze. Everyone scattered and left the hotel. I found a billiard hall nearby and played billiards with the locals. Since I could speak a few words in the Fujian dialect, I tried to chat with the young men. But I find that what I knew wasnt Fujian, so I still couldnt understand what they were saying.

I stayed until the billiard hall closed, at which point Fatty sent me a message. It was three o'clock in the morning and no one from Xiao Huas group had left the tulou.

I waited until dawn, finding it all a little strange. After thinking about it, I felt that something was wrong. Was the fifth floor a cover and the people on the fourth floor were Xiao Hua's people?

But I had never seen those iconic figures working under Xiao Hua before.
