Chapter 172
Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang agreed.
After explaining a few words to the nurse who was in charge of Wang Kaixuan, the three of them went to Chen Yulou's residence.
After arriving at the place where they had met Chen Yulou before, they saw that the door of the dilapidated temple where Chen Yulou lived was wide open. Chen Yulou was standing at the door with a cane and a smiling face, as if he had expected them to come.
Shirley Yang walked forward with a big smile on her face: "Grandpa Chen, why are you here?"
Chen Yulou stroked his goatee:
"When I woke up this morning, I counted with my fingers and predicted that the nobleman would come today."
"I guessed it was you guys. I didn't even set up my fortune-telling stall. I was waiting for you guys to come."
"Look, you're here as promised, so I've been waiting."
Hu Bayi was pleasantly surprised: "Grandpa, you're accurate enough. Fortunately, you didn't set up your stall, otherwise we wouldn't know where to find you."
Shirley Yang was about to step into the house, but was stopped by Chen Yulou.
Chen Yulou swallowed his saliva and felt a little embarrassed: "I've been waiting for you for so long, and I haven't eaten yet."
Shirley Yang immediately understood what Chen Yulou meant, and quickly asked Hu Bayi to go out and stop a few rickshaws to come back.
Seeing Shirley Yang so sensible, Chen Yulou couldn't help but praise her: "You are worthy of being the granddaughter of Partridge Whistle. You are really smart!"
Shirley Yang politely replied: "Grandpa Chen, you are too kind."
Listening to Shirley Yang and Chen Yulou, one old and one young, bragging about business here, Huo Jilin couldn't help yawning.
After Chen Yulou noticed Huo Jilin, he struggled to move a stool from the temple: "Come on, little brother, sit down and rest for a while. This place is remote. I don't know when I can find a rickshaw."
Huo Jilin was not polite and sat on it.
Chen Yulou couldn't hide his curiosity; "Did you get anything this time?"
Shirley Yang nodded, very sensible, and handed a priceless agate necklace taken out of the tomb to Chen Yulou: "Grandpa Chen, this is a gift from the younger generation to you, you must keep it."
Chen Yulou inadvertently twisted it with his fingers and knew that it was a valuable thing. He smiled and looked very satisfied; "Logically speaking, I shouldn't accept the things you took out from the bottom with great difficulty, but I shouldn't let your kindness down, so I will accept it reluctantly."
While speaking, Chen Yulou happily stuffed the agate bracelet into his black robe, and there was no sign of reluctance at all.
After sitting for a while, Hu Bayi returned to the ruined temple with four rickshaws.
Getting on the rickshaws, under Shirley Yang's instructions, the drivers drove to the largest restaurant in Gulan County together.
After arriving at the place, everyone found out that this so-called restaurant was just a two-story restaurant.
Shirley Yang really felt a little embarrassed, and smiled at Chen Yulou with apology: "I'm so sorry, Grandpa Chen, I can only make do here, please don't despise me."
Chen Yulou has been wandering for many years, and he is no longer the glorious chief leader of the past. For him, such a restaurant is simply a rare opportunity.
Let alone despise it, Chen Yulou now just wants to eat a few bowls of meat and replenish his body.
After entering the restaurant, Shirley Yang heard that there was no one on the second floor, so she simply booked the entire second floor.
Before the food was served, Chen Yulou had already drunk several bowls of hot tea.
Shirley Yang couldn't help it anymore and asked, "Grandpa Chen, we want to ask you something."
Chen Yulou was so hungry that his stomach was growling. He didn't have the heart to answer questions for Shirley Yang. He waved his hands repeatedly: "I know, I know, let's eat first, and we'll talk slowly after the meal."
Shirley Yang wanted to ask something, but Chen Yulou had already said so much, so he could only swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
As soon as the food came, Chen Yulou stretched his head above the food and smelled it with satisfaction.
Perhaps he felt ashamed, Chen Yulou looked a little uncomfortable: "I'm sorry to make you laugh. I haven't had such a delicious meal for a long time."
Shirley Yang looked at Chen Yulou with some pity, and wanted to take Chen Yulou back to the United States.
Just when Shirley Yang was about to speak, Huo Jilin gently kicked Shirley Yang with his toes.
Shirley Yang reacted immediately and held back her words.
The things in front of them did not arouse any appetite for Huo Jilin and Shirley Yang, but Chen Yulou seemed to have not eaten meat for 800 years. He picked up the chopsticks and stuffed several pieces into his mouth.
After swallowing the meat, he drank a few sips of the store's homemade sorghum wine. Chen Yulou smacked his lips with satisfaction: "If you have any questions, just ask."
It was really a wait for Chen Yulou to say this.After a long time, Shirley Yang couldn't wait to speak:
"We found the whereabouts of Huichenzhu on Li Chunfeng's coffin lid. It said that Huichenzhu is in Yunnan Worm Valley."
"I saw it in my grandfather's notebook. You also went to Yunnan Worm Valley to look for ancient tombs. I think it should be the same one we are looking for."
"Can you please tell us the location of the tomb you are looking for."
"Pah!"
When Chen Yulou heard about Yunnan Worm Valley, his face changed drastically. He slammed the table and stood up:
"If my calculation is correct, you are the last of the bloodline of Queqiao Shao."
"That is not a fun place. If you If I don't look for it, I can still live to 40 years old, and I can leave a lifeline for Queqiao Shao."
"If you go, I'm afraid you will die before you find the tomb door."
Chen Yulou's words were extremely unpleasant, which made Shirley Yang a little unhappy, but she still endured it:
"Grandpa Chen, where I died has nothing to do with you. If you know, please tell me so that I can take less detours."
"If you don't know, then you can say that you have never set foot in Yunnan."
"The Banshan lineage has been looking for the Huichen Pearl for more than a hundred years. If I can't find it, I will die with my eyes open."
Shirley Yang's words were powerful and resolute.
How could Chen Yulou not know the importance of the Huichen Pearl to Shirley Yang?
Putting down the bowl and the wine, Chen Yulou struggled for a long time in his heart, sighed, and slowly said: "Oh, whatever! Anyway! But you have to tell me first, do you want to take this little brother with you when you go to Yunnan this time."
Chen Yulou said, glancing at Huo Jilin.
Shirley Yang looked at Huo Jilin as if he was looking at a life-saving straw, with a look of desire in her eyes.
Thinking of her newly activated tattoo and her strong curiosity about the mysterious creature in the coffin yesterday, Huo Jilin nodded.
Shirley Yang smiled comfortably. If she didn't get Huo Jilin's nod, she might have gone to Yunnan Worm Valley and never returned.
