~9 min read 1,661 words

Shen Qiong was very curious to see that Zhang Lin actually lived in a rental house.

"You live in this kind of place?"

Zhang Lin said while changing clothes: "What's wrong with living in this kind of place?"

"Your Wang family is not short of money; do you think money is blown by the wind?"

Hearing Zhang Lin expose her identity, Shen Qiong immediately retreated to the side vigilantly.

Zhang Lin noticed that she had already taken out a dagger.

Zhang Lin didn't care, stood up, and poured himself a glass of water.

"Put your weapon away. If we talk about fighting, you can't beat me."

"If we talk about brains, you are not as smart as me. So, everything you do is in vain."

Shen Qiong was immediately dissatisfied; she had received strict training in the Wang family.

With her skills, she could easily subdue several men. Would she not be able to beat this weak storyteller?

Shen Qiong thought, and decided to give Zhang Lin a little color to see!

She suddenly rose with the dagger and stabbed at Zhang Lin's face.

Zhang Lin was holding a water cup in his right hand. It was impossible to see how he moved, but he flashed and dodged Shen Qiong's attack.

By the time Shen Qiong reacted, Zhang Lin was no longer in front of her.

She was alert and wanted to turn back, but was kicked onto the sofa by Zhang Lin from behind.

Then Zhang Lin sat back on the sofa leisurely while holding the water cup. The water in the cup didn't even shake during the whole process.

Shen Qiong fell on the sofa and looked at Zhang Lin in shock!

She didn't expect this storyteller's skills to be so good, and not just ordinary good.

His movement technique was different from the foreign fighting techniques that people learn now.

It was a bit like the oldest teacher in the Wang family's training base!

It is said that these teachers in the Wang family are top-tier experts in ancient schools.

Shen Qiong even felt that even her teacher couldn't take three moves from Zhang Lin.

Shen Qiong was even more suspicious. Who is this person who knows every secret and has ancient skills?

Zhang Lin looked at her and said: "If you want to talk properly, sit down."

Shen Qiong was helpless; she couldn't beat this person in front of her.

So she had to sit down honestly and listen to what he had to say.

Shen Qiong asked: "You know the secret of the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish, so you are deliberately revealing it to everyone, right?"

Zhang Lin nodded and shook his head, "Actually, you are wrong to say that. I didn't reveal it deliberately, but the atmosphere was set to this point, and it felt wrong not to do something."

Shen Qiong was confused and didn't know what Zhang Lin was talking about at all.

Zhang Lin naturally didn't need to explain to her.

His main job is storytelling. Telling the story of the Nine Gates will inevitably involve the Bronze Gate, immortality, the Queen Mother of the West, the biggest tomb-robbing activity in history, and a series of secrets of the Wang family.

This is the so-called atmosphere setting.

Since the story has been told, if the secret is not told, the story is incomplete!

And all of Zhang Lin's ability growth requires storytelling, so this spoiler must be done.

As for whether it affected the plans of Wang Wang Zanghai and the Wang family.

None of his business!

Shen Qiong asked: "Since you revealed the plan of the Wang family's ancestor, does it mean you know what the secret left by the ancestor is?"

Zhang Lin realized suddenly, how could he forget this.

Wang Wang Zanghai left several clues for his descendants, letting them follow the clues to find the ultimate secret.

He hid the ultimate secret in all these clues.

Therefore, the Wang family members are also struggling to find the truth of the matter.

So Zhang Lin nodded and said: "I know, but I don't need to tell you."

Shen Qiong was instantly angry, staring at Zhang Lin with wide eyes, her chest heaving up and down.

Zhang Lin said: "It's useless to stare at me. I'm just an ordinary storyteller."

"Everything I say is in the storytelling story."

"If you want to know, you will slowly know after coming to listen to my storytelling in the future."

Shen Qiong thought: Listen to you slowly, until the year of the monkey!

But she didn't dare to show it on her face. After all, she had just learned Zhang Lin's skills.

She knew that this person looked gentle, but his actions were very fierce, which was very similar to Chen Pi A-si in his story.

Shen Qiong had to say: "The purpose of the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish is to lure top tomb-robbing experts like Chen Pi A-si into the tomb."

"You have revealed all the secrets now. With Chen Pi A-si's caution, he won't go again."

Zhang Lin looked at her and said: "You are wrong! You are not Chen Pi A-si, you won't understand what he is thinking."

"Most importantly, you have something he doesn't!"

Shen Qiong was startled when she heard this, looking at Zhang Lin uncertainly. She didn't know if Zhang Lin's words were referring to something else.

Zhang Lin didn't hide it and said: "You can live a long life and stay young, but Chen Pi A-si can't."

"He is over ninety years old, and he is no different from a piece of dried tangerine peel."

"What else can a person have at this age? Nothing but immortality!"

"Therefore, after the secret of the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish is published, not only will Chen Pi A-si go."

"Even those hidden tomb-robbing experts will not be able to help but take action."

"Don't you Wang family members want to use other people's hands to solve the secret?"

"Wouldn't it be better if so many people helped together?"

It must be said that Zhang Lin's words made sense, and Shen Qiong actually showed signs of being persuaded.

But she immediately reacted; the Wang family's affairs were not that simple.

The more people who know about their existence, the harder it is for their plans to be implemented.

Therefore, Zhang Lin must be stopped from revealing the secret of the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish at the auction three days later.

Seeing Shen Qiong's changing expression, Zhang Lin said fearlessly: "If you Wang family members are not afraid of death, you can try it here."

"Don't blame me for not being merciful then. Anyway, there are many of you, it doesn't matter if a few die."

Shen Qiong knew she couldn't deal with Zhang Lin; she needed to report this to someone at a higher level.

"This Snake-Eyed Copper Fish was auctioned by Chen Pi A-si to fish."

"To fish for people in this world who know the secret of the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish."

"You clearly know that he is manipulating it behind the scenes, yet you are willing to fall for his trick?"

Zhang Lin looked at Shen Qiong, very confused.

"Little girl, I think you are mistaken."

"Between me and Chen Pi A-si, it's not certain who is the fish and who is the bait!"

"How do you know that I fell for his trick?"

"Maybe he is like you, asking about my whole family behind my back!"

Shen Qiong blushed when she heard this and quickly denied: "I didn't ask about your whole family."

Zhang Lin laughed, "Asking about my ancestors also counts!"

The conversation between the two ended, and the room fell into silence.

Shen Qiong sat still, and Zhang Lin suddenly said: "I'm hungry, go cook me a bowl of noodles."

Shen Qiong was angry and stood up: "Why should I cook noodles for you?"

Zhang Lin looked at her and didn't say anything.

Shen Qiong stared at Zhang Lin suspiciously, and after a while, her face suddenly flushed red.

She said resentfully: "I didn't expect you to look decent, but be so shameless!"

Zhang Lin sat on the sofa indifferently.

"If you don't cook, then go slowly, I won't see you off."

After speaking, he ignored Shen Qiong and went to the bedroom to fiddle with his things.

When Zhang Lin came out again, he saw a bowl of clear soup noodles on the dining table, steaming hot.

Zhang Lin sat on the chair and ate slowly.

While eating, he said: "The little girl has a bad temper, but her skills are not bad."

"But why make clear soup noodles? I'm not Er Yuehong!"

The next day, Zhang Lin, who hadn't gone to work yet, suddenly saw the news on TV.

After a day of hard work yesterday, the archaeological team was finally going to enter the tomb chamber today.

Originally, they were supposed to work overnight, but there was a heavy rain last night, so the progress was delayed.

Seeing this, Zhang Lin thought of the trio who had gathered together inexplicably in this world.

Wu Tianzhen and Wang Pangzi were two college students, and they didn't know anything about tomb-robbing for the first time.

Zhang Qilin Brother is now disguised as a bald Master Zhang, and he seems to be quite into the role!

Used to the trio in the novel, Zhang Lin didn't feel awkward looking at such a combination, but felt it was quite interesting!

If it weren't for the storytelling, he would really like to observe the situation of the rookie trio tomb-robbing on the spot.

That would definitely be full of situations and endless fun.

Today they are going to enter the tomb chamber of the Western Zhou tomb. This group of people will encounter a blood corpse.

Zhang Lin really wants to know, since the little brother is a bald master now, how does he plan to communicate with the blood corpse?
