Manor Romance

Chapter 247 Notes
This sentence had an immediate effect, and Yan Li hurriedly explained: "The teacher will get involved with the Lu family because of this Lu Xiuyue, but I don't know much about her, I only know that she is from the Lu family's auction house , the status is not low, and he was very active in the antique world before."

"I don't need you to tell me about this. What you need to be clear about now is, what is your value to me? I am not a very patient person." This stubborn guy keeps talking nonsense, Yun Li His patience was gradually worn away by him, and he warned him in a cold voice.

Yan Li fell silent for a while, propped his hands on the long table, lowered his head as if he was struggling in his heart, the few gray hairs on his head were drooping and messy, and the wrinkles on his face seemed deeper than usual. Although he is less than 50 years old, his aging degree is no better than his teacher Mo Chen.

"Forget it, the teacher has been away for so many years, and I have a private note of his life left in my hand. There were originally two copies, but one of them was confiscated together with other items after the scientific research team had an accident. I hid this notebook at a great risk, and if you want to know, you can read it yourself." After a long while, Yan Li slumped on the bamboo chair like a deflated ball, weakly Yield to Yunli.

"Very well, then let's go get the notes now. Your ability to hide things seems to have improved. At least if you don't tell me about it, no one will know that there is such a note. Trust me Chen will be very relieved when he finds out." Yun Li was overjoyed when he heard the news, and immediately asked to get the notebook, teasing Yan Li in a hurry.

"The teacher will not forgive me. I can't keep such an important thing, and now I am being threatened by others. The teacher has rescued me twice. One is to hide cultural relics privately. The second time is when we went down to an ancient Ming Dynasty tomb During the inspection work, I accidentally touched the poison gas trap. If the teacher hadn’t found an escape route alertly, none of us in the group would have survived. My old appearance was also caused by inhaling a small amount of poison gas at that time. Let the students make the same mistakes, I have always used the most stringent standards to demand them, so I have the title of 'stern professor'." Yan Li probably expressed his feelings and said to himself Let's talk about the past.

Yunli didn't expect him and Mo Chen to have such a past, but after experiencing the incident with the scientific research team, few people should know that Mo Chen is still alive. What, even if someone knew about his existence, they wouldn't think that he was the famous archaeologist Mo Chen.

"There are no absolutes in everything. You may still have a chance to repay him. Find out the truth for him. Let's go get the notes, or it will be dark soon." Yun Li's words were pun intended, but Yan Li couldn't hear Another layer of meaning came out, the most important thing now is to get Mo Chen's notes as soon as possible.

Yan Li didn't play any tricks on him, he simply took Yunli away to get his notes, he actually hid such important things in a hidden compartment on the bookshelf in the college office, he deserves to be a student taught by Mo Chen, even these little tricks He learned well, when he and Lu Ci searched for the things Mo Chen left behind based on the note, the things were also hidden in the wooden beams, the methods of the two masters and apprentices for hiding things were really exactly the same.

The notebook was very thick, Yun Li turned it over a few times after getting it, and then left in satisfaction, Yan Li didn't know what Yun Li was thinking, he seemed to have no doubts about the notebook.This is considered a deal, he handed over the notes, and Yunli kept the tainted secret for him, but he knew that things would definitely not be that simple, he really couldn't see through the behavior of this young man, and he would inevitably lead him in the future The nose comes and goes, and I don't know how this past event was detected.

Yunli won't answer his doubts. It's purely accidental that he was able to grasp the handle of Professor Yan Li. After learning about the relationship between Yan Li and Mo Chen, Yunli wanted to pry some useful things from him. The information came out, but he tried many methods to no avail. Due to Mo Chen's relationship, he couldn't ask Gu Lao and Mrs. Gu directly, so he found their eldest daughter Gu Minglan and son-in-law Li Jun.

Although Gu Minglan knew Yan Li, they didn't have much contact with each other. The same was true for Li Jun, but Li Jun had a good relationship with Mo Chen in the past. Few people knew about Yan Li's dirty past, but Li Jun was one of the people who knew about it. , This is what he overheard from Mo Chen.

Li Jun is not a good person, so it’s fine to hear such things. He didn’t expect that after so many years, Yunli would have his eye on this accomplished archaeologist, and this matter is also related to the accident of the scientific research team. After weighing it, he still told Yun Li the news.

Li Jun really helped Yunli a lot this time. With this opportunity in his hand, no matter how stubborn Yan Li is, he will give in. Unless he is really desperate to strike a stone with an egg, there will be a breakthrough in this matter. Mo Chen's notebook is The reason why Yunli is so sure is because he has seen the handwriting of the old fox. He was with the black stone back then and there was a letter he wrote to Gu Lao. The letter is now in his hand , so he can be so sure.

This is a work notebook, which records the research projects that Mo Chen was in charge of back then. There are also many personal opinions and essays in it. It is not a formal work record document, but somewhat similar to a diary.

As for the other confiscated book that was the real work record document, Yan Li said that he hadn't looked through the content in it, and Yun Li didn't want to investigate the authenticity for the time being, as this notebook alone would keep him busy up.

He had vaguely guessed that Mo Chen was indeed conducting research on the Lu family, and the focus of the research was of course the treasures they had passed on secretly for many years. Not only Mo Chen, but many individuals or groups in China were conducting research in this area, Lu As a legendary force that started by robbing tombs, the treasures they have collected must be amazing. Although they act very low-key, they have always been the focus of attention.

Yun Li is also very interested in the treasures of the Lu family, but what he cares most about is the news of Princess Gexian. The name of Princess Gexian is not mentioned in the whole notebook, but when it comes to the treasures of the Lu family, In the chapters of the book, there are many places where an unknown energy is vaguely mentioned. This should be the kind of ability possessed by Princess Gexian, and this ability of Princess Gexian is actually similar to that of Lu Home treasures are inextricably linked.

Yunli read through the entire notebook and put together many details, and probably got the following information: During the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, the wealth accumulation of the Lu family reached a small peak, and there were many talented people under the family. The enemy of all, different schools of opinion also appeared in the clan, and there were endless debates.

After realizing the huge potential crisis, a group of elders decided to hide the wealth. Even if the Lu family was besieged, but with the wealth, the Lu family would not be extinct.As a family of tomb robbers, they know that no matter how deep the east is, they can't stop the prying steps of interested people, so they find another way and want to use unknown energy to protect the treasure.

Where there are people, there will be no sealed news. The outside world thinks that the Lu family is whimsical, and they just want to use this illusory thing as a cover to scatter and hide the real wealth.When they jointly suppressed the Lu family, the expected harvest did not appear. Not many people believed that the Lu family had really obtained an unknown power to hide the treasure, and they were more willing to believe that the so-called treasure was just an exaggerated rumor.

Sometimes the opinion of a few people is often correct. Since its founding, the Lu family has robbed many relics and ancient tombs, and even more rare and rare treasures. Among them is an unknown black stone, The shape is very irregular, only the size of a palm, oblate and moist, and you can feel the mysterious aura on it when you touch it, which is quite strange.

No one can pry into the secrets, but the breath of the black stone is very beneficial to people. The Lu family has many secret tomb-robbing skills. Most of the children in the family have to practice since childhood. The jet-black stone will get twice the result with half the effort, which is quite miraculous, and this jet-black stone has also become the belongings of the patriarchs of the past generations, a symbol of absolute power.

With in-depth research on it, the Lu family also discovered another ability of this strange stone. It seems that there is a world inside it, which can incorporate real objects into it, that is, the function of storage. Only the head of the Lu family can sense and use this ability. This is only the core figures of the Lu family in the past who know the secret, and the outside world does not know the existence of such a strange treasure.

The Lu family hid all their treasures in this strange stone, and named it "Sumeru Stone". It is said in Buddhist scriptures that "life is like a mustard seed, and a heart is like a mote of dust". This is the best way to describe it.

But the Sumeru Stone is not so perfect. It is easy to hide things in, but it is very laborious to take them out. The Lu family also considered for a long time before making this decision, and established the ancestral precepts, not to use this until the time of life and death. Treasures in the Sumeru Stone.

The treasure stayed in the Sumeru Stone to avoid prying time and time again, and the Lu family has also used it to pass it on to this day. Although it has ups and downs, it has never stopped.However, as time passed, they found that the Sumeru Stone was becoming more and more difficult to control. If they lost control of it, the treasures that the Lu family had plundered for hundreds of years would be permanently locked in it. It's a big problem.

In desperation, they began to search for a way to control the Sumeru Stone, but they didn't gain much. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Lu family was hit one after another. The core disciples were forced to flee, and the Lu family was also on the verge of being broken. In fact, at this moment of life and death, they had an intersection with Princess Gexian.
