with everyone else, tightened their clothes."What the heck kind of weather is this It's supposed to be summer, yet it's so cold..."Lin Tianhu shivered and said."It's cold enough...""That's how it is i...However, Chen Ping pretended not to see and continued addressing Mr. Shi: "This Imperial Tomb is right next to the present-day Imperial Mausoleum. The mound beneath that hill is it. If I'm not mistaken, that mound should be the burial mound of the Imperial Tomb..."
This time, everyone went crazy. The place has now become a tourist attraction, with countless visitors every day. If there were imperial tombs underneath, how could they possibly remain undiscovered
And Mr. Shi's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Chen Ping: "Chen Ping, are you serious If there's nothing there, do you know what saying these things here today could bring you"
"Mr. Shi, I take responsibility for my own words."
Chen Ping said with a calm face.
Seeing Chen Ping so calm, Mr. Shi believed his words a little more, and the others began to waver as well.
Because no one would be foolish enough to deceive Mr. Shi in such a situation, especially since Chen Ping is not stupid.
"Mr. Shi, there is indeed an ancient tomb under that mound. However, whether it belongs to an emperor is still unclear. I discovered it some time ago. A few days ago, when I was about to investigate it precisely, I encountered this young man who disturbed my use of the Seven Stars Array for divination. Otherwise, I would have reported it long ago."
At this moment, Hu Bazi stood up and said.
Hu Bazi first discovered this ancient tomb and initially intended to secretly dig it up himself. However, he was caught by Chen Ping. Now, Chen Ping is actually selling the tomb as a personal favor.
Hu Bazi was not happy about this, so he stood up and wanted to take all the credit for himself.
When Hu Ba Qi said this, everyone truly believed him. After all, the Hu family made their living by seeking out and exploring tombs. No one in this field could compare to them. Now that Hu Ba Qi had said so, then the ancient tomb in this place was a sure thing.
Mr. Shi glanced at Hu Baqi. He didn't believe a word about Hu Baqi's claims of reporting upwards. These clans and families wouldn't share such a good resource, Mr. Shi knew that well enough. However, he didn't explicitly point it out.
"Alright, I will have someone investigate this thoroughly. If it turns out to be an imperial tomb, Chen Ping, your credit will be considerable..."
After Mr. Shi finished speaking, he strode out.
Seeing Mr. Shi was about to leave, everyone stood up to see him off.
Zhao Wujie, along with Chen Ping, hurried to see them off.
"Chen Ping, those who excel will be destroyed. The protection of others is only temporary; only you can protect yourself..."
Before getting on the car, Mr. Shi patted Chen Ping on the shoulder and said.
Chen Ping understood Mr. Shi's words and nodded slightly.
To survive in this harsh society, one needs to rely on their own strength. Depending on the protection of others is ultimately not a sustainable solution.
Mr. Shi left, and many people followed suit. If it weren't for Mr. Shi, the Hufa Pavilion wouldn't have had the strength to invite them over.
"Chen Ping, don't think that just because you have backing, I will spare you. This broken arm is a feud, an unforgivable one. You wait for me..."
Xuan Yuan Kai looked at Chen Ping, gritting his teeth.
"Whatever..."
Chen Ping said with a nonchalant expression.
Chen Ping's expression almost made Xuanyuan Kai furious, but here, he dared not attack Chen Ping, after all, Mr. Shi had just instructed him not to.
"Xiaokai, we're leaving..."
Xuan Yuan Yan gave Chen Ping a cold look, then called his son away. He was also afraid that Xuan Yuan Kai would lose control and attack Chen Ping.
"Dad, are we just going to let Chen Ping get away with this"
After leaving, Xuanyuan Kai said angrily.
Slap...!Huo Ling Xingjun's words deeply shocked Chen Ping, because at this moment, Chen Ping suddenly felt like a frog at the bottom of a well!At first, he encountered several powerful demons and thought the...
