Seeing the old man’s reaction, I knew that I had found the right person, and the old man in front of me was the one who could understand the scroll.

Fang Xiang and I looked at each other, and from Fang Xiang's eyes I saw the same thoughts as myself.

"Old man, this scroll was given by a friend. He told us that someone could understand the scroll on Dongting Building in Luohua Street, so we came to find you." Fang Xiang said to the old man with a smile.

The old man stretched his body firmly and pointed at the scroll and asked us: Do you know what is hidden behind the scroll?

"Wan Demon Palace." I smiled and did not say the cycle of life and death, but only said the name of the Wan Demon Palace.

When the old man heard the three words "Tian Demon Palace", his whole body trembled suddenly, and his turbid gaze turned to look at me, his eyes full of shock.

Fang Xiang and I looked at each other, but we didn't continue to talk much, waiting for the old man to calm down.

There must be some secret hidden behind this scroll, otherwise the old man would not have been so shocked. Maybe this secret is still huge and weird.

Because of panic, the old man's white hair became messy, and his whole expression was depressed, as if he had grown older for dozens of years in an instant.

The old man stared at the scroll in a daze. After about a minute, he smiled bitterly on his old cheeks. He turned around and said to us: Come with me.

After saying that, the old man turned around and walked towards the stairs next to him, as if he was about to go up to the second floor.

Fang Xiang and Ye Dangge, I didn't say much, and just followed the old man to the second floor.

The first floor of Dongting Building is a hall for welcoming guests, while the second floor is relatively rich. The entire second floor is full of wooden racks, and the wooden racks are filled with various antiques. These antiques are valuable at first glance, and they look dazzling.

The old man did not stop when he arrived at the second floor, but continued up the stairs and reached the third floor.

There are fewer antiques on the third floor, most of which are hanging, rolled up murals and some calligraphy works, while the center is full of handicrafts.

The old man still had no intention of stopping and took us directly to the fourth floor.

The fourth floor is the highest floor of Dongting Building. When we got above, we were a little surprised.

The fourth floor looks quite like an office. The huge space is only a few mahogany sofas and a mahogany desk. Besides, the most are bookshelf. The bookshelf is full of books, and there is no dust on these books, and there are many records that have been read. From this we can see that the old man’s greatest pleasure should be reading books.

"Sit down." The old man sat on a sofa and introduced himself: "My surname is Dong, and the eldest son in the family is the eldest son. You can call me Dong."

Before we could speak, Boss Dong said to me again: Give me the scroll, I want to see it.

I didn't hesitate much and handed the scroll to Boss Dong directly.

Boss Dong took the scroll and slowly unfolded it, took a look at the landscape painting on the scroll, and then turned the scroll back to look at the words on the back of the scroll.

These words are naturally the sentence "The fallen flowers have a street Dongting Tower."

Boss Dong reached out and stroked the words, then placed the scroll on the coffee table in front of him, sighed heavily and said: What should be come, it's still here.

"Boss Dong, we all come here to see the name of our name. Don't go around with us. Just tell us where the Ten Thousand Demons Palace is." Fang Xiang said straight to the point.

Boss Dong shook his head with a sluggish expression and said: Without me leading the way, no one can find the Ten Thousand Demon Palace.

I thought of the scene in my dream. In the dream, Boss Dong went out of the sea with us and found the bronze gate with us, which is the Ten Thousand Demons Palace, but later Boss Dong was killed by me.

I have always been unable to understand why I wanted to kill Boss Dong. What is certain is that Boss Dong must have done something to harm us before, otherwise I would not have killed someone for no reason.

"Let me tell you a story. After listening to this story, you may know why you came to me with the scroll." Since we took out the scroll, Boss Dong has never smiled. There was a serious sadness and despair on his old cheeks.

The three of us looked at each other but didn't say anything, waiting for Boss Dong to continue talking.

Boss Dong stood up, opened the electric kettle on the desk to boil water, then took out a key from his pocket, slowly walked towards the innermost bookshelf, and while walking, Boss Dong said, "Seventy years ago, the second world was over, and the whole country was liberated. I was also a member of the Anti-Japanese War Army at that time. After liberation, I returned to my hometown, Penglai."

"Seventy years ago?" I was stunned and thought it was wrong. Judging from Boss Dong's appearance, he was only in his seventies at most. But Boss Dong said that he had experienced World War II. People who could experience World War II are generally in their nineties or even one hundred years old now, but Boss Dong does not look like he was a hundred years old at all.

Fang Xiang also noticed something was wrong and asked in confusion: Boss Dong is old this year?

"I'm exactly one hundred years old this year." Boss Dong looked back at us for a few glances, and a wry smile appeared on his old face: I think you are curious why I am 100 years old but only in my seventies?

I nodded, really curious about what was going on.

There are very few people in society who can live to be 100 years old. Even if there are, they are still old and old. It is completely contrary to common sense for people like Boss Dong who are over 100 years old but in his seventies.

Of course, Fang Xiang, Ye Dangge and Black Mask were excluded because they were not ordinary people, and no matter how they looked at Boss Dong, they looked like an ordinary businessman.

Boss Dong sighed heavily, found an old key among a bunch of keys. Open a drawer on the bookshelf and took out a file bag and walked over. At the same time, he said: After listening to this story, you can understand why I became like this now.

While speaking, Boss Dong sat on the sofa and opened the file bag, took out a stack of white paper from it, and handed it to us.

Fang Xiang and Ye Dangge, I divided the white paper into three parts and took it in my hands and read it.

There are no words on the white paper, but pictures after pictures.

These pictures are not colored and look hand-painted, but the person who painted them is very good at painting, and the pictures can clearly see what they are expressing.

The white paper I was holding in my hand was a small island. The trees on the island were as lush as ordinary islands. The second painting was a little different. This painting was a cave, which looked like a cave on the island.

The third painting is a long tunnel with an island above the tunnel and a seabed below the tunnel.

It seems that this tunnel connects the island and the seabed!

At this time, Fang Xiang handed me the painting in his hand, and I also handed the painting in his hand to Fang Xiang.

The painting in Fang Xiang's hand was a bronze gate, with countless dense spells engraved on both sides of the gate. The reason why it was called a spell is because these words were difficult to understand and looked like a spell.

The second painting is also the bronze gate. The difference is that this painting draws the top of the bronze gate, with three large characters engraved on it.

Hall of Ten Thousand Demons.

Ye Dangge put the painting on the coffee table and looked like he had finished reading it. I looked at the paintings from Ye Dang singer in my hand and found that these paintings were basically the same as those I had seen before, and there were no new clues.

In other words, the only clue we have now is the bronze gate. As for what the bronze gate is after, it is completely unclear.

At this time, the electric kettle that was boiling water also boiled hot water. Boss Dong found a pack of tea leaves and put it in the teapot, scalded it with hot water and soaked the tea leaves. At the same time, he said, "These paintings were drawn by me for someone, and you want to find the Wan Yao Palace."

"The clues to this painting only go to the bronze gate. What is behind the bronze gate?" Fang Xiang asked in confusion.

Boss Dong sighed and said, "The whole country was liberated seventy years ago. Although it was liberated at that time, some areas were still in chaos. Although no one starved to death in that era, many people were in a stage where they were not full or warm in food. These people started to do all kinds of activities for money, some did some despicable things, and some were robbing families. In short, they did everything for themselves to eat and drink enough."

Boss Dong’s words are actually right. When the world was just liberated, the world was not stable and peaceful. In some places, people even had the most basic food and clothing, were difficult to solve. In order not to starve to death, they often embark on the road of crime. This is actually forced to do something to tie their brains to their belts. If there is a job to make money, who will do some work to tie their brains to their belts?

"I was among this group of people back then." Boss Dong raised the teapot and shook it, poured a cup of tea for us, and continued, "Maybe it was because I had been a soldier and fought against the invaders. Although I had no food or clothing, I did not do anything to harm the people. At that time, I joined forces with a few anti-Japanese comrades to find a way to make a fortune. I happened to hear that there were ancient tombs of ancient nobles and Wang clans nearby, so our group of seven started digging people's graves, which is now commonly known as tomb robbers."

When I heard this, I took a look at Fang Xiang unexpectedly, but I didn't expect that I was really hit by this bastard.

Fang Xiang raised his eyebrows at me with a proud look on his face.

I was too lazy to bird him, so I continued to turn my head and look at Boss Dong and wait for him to continue talking.

Boss Dong took a sip of tea and continued: People, they never know how to be satisfied. After doing some things, they will never be able to turn back.

"Although the seven of us robbed the tomb for the first time, we have gained a lot with our courage. Of course, injuries are inevitable, but fortunately no one died."

Old Man Dong paused and said: After three or four successes, we were out of control after tasting the sweetness. We began to detect whether there were ancient tombs around us, and bought good equipment to continue to engage in tomb robbing, as if we wanted to develop for a long time on this road.

"We have learned a lot of experience after several successes, and things have become much smoother afterwards. They can be regarded as famous figures in this industry. However, what can never be satisfied is the greed of people. After selling good things and selling them a lot of money, our group of people spend all the money they earned from their lives. They are used to spending money with big hands and feet, and suddenly they lose money. No one is at ease, so they collude and prepare to continue working."

This is true. If you give a poor person a lot of wealth, he will be overwhelmed by joy, and he will also spend money with great effort, but when you take back the money, he will become embarrassed. Because he is used to the days of wealth and will never be able to return to his previous poor mentality.

I once saw a story that a rich man gave this woman a lot of wealth to revenge on a woman. After she got the money, the woman lost herself and was immersed in money. But at this moment, the rich man took back the wealth, and the woman became depraved. For money and to live a rich life again, she would sell her body to sway herself.

This is actually a psychological problem. If you treat everything calmly, this kind of thing will not happen at all. Boss Dong is the same.

Boss Dong sighed and said: After the seven of us colluded again, we began to mobilize the surrounding areas, but there were no ancient tombs around us for us to attack, and some of them were all stolen. After several investigations, we found that there was an island in the sea outside Penglai, where huge treasures were hidden in the island, and we learned that the treasure was as rich as a country. However, no matter how we investigated, we could not find out which emperor or noble man built his tomb on the island in ancient times.

The three of us immediately sat up straight when we heard this, knowing that the key was here.

"The secret of hidden treasures in the island was spread for some reason. Many people went to the sea to find the island. Although the seven of us loved money, we were not at the point of losing our minds. We were not in a hurry to go out to sea, but waited quietly. Unexpectedly, the first group of people who went out to sea really returned and brought a large number of treasures. After receiving this news, the seven of us no longer hesitated and prepared to go out to sea to find the hidden treasures."

Speaking of this, Boss Dong sighed and said: God was willing to do anything. When we went out to sea, we encountered a storm. The rolling waves made our ship change direction. After everything was stable, our ship was washed to another island, that is, the island with the Ten Thousand Demons Hall##### Recommend a friend’s urban masterpiece "Perspective of the Little Shennong".
