Chapter 75 The man in the coffin

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Ye Bai climbed to the top of the mountain alone, faced the purple clouds in the east, and tried to use his inner strength and mental methods.

Perhaps it was his first time practicing, and it took Ye Bai an hour just to enter samadhi.

For a whole morning, I didn't even feel Qi.

Ye Bai also knew that this internal skill was not easy to practice. After all, in Jin Lao's book, except for those destined to be proud, ordinary people would not be able to achieve great success in practicing it for only a few decades.

Ye Bai is not in a hurry. Now, his method is more than enough to protect himself in the face of most dangers. This Zixia magical skill is just a supplement, just practice with it.

Watching Ye Bai coming down from the top of the mountain, Shunzi stepped forward and said, "Third Master, your things are packed."

"Well, let's go back."

The two men retrieved the carriage they had brought before, loaded up the treasures they had brought out from the main tomb, and headed towards the next empty tomb.

...

Time flies and it is two months later.

During this period, Ye Bai explored nine empty tombs and found five blessing bags. Some of the empty tombs did not have blessing bags.

Maybe because his luck had run out, these five lucky bags did not produce anything that satisfied Ye Bai.

A lighter, a bag of Dove chocolates, two bottles of Nongfu Spring, and a pack of sanitary napkins.

Although they are all modern things, they were not uncommon in the Republic of China, and they were of no use to Ye Bai.

Ye Bai sighed, there were still three empty tombs left, hoping not to disappoint him again.

The two came to Changde, Hunan, and there was a tomb of a prince from the Song Dynasty nearby.

After a tiring journey, Ye Bai heard that the salted duck in Changde was good, so he took Shunzi to an old restaurant to take a rest and try the taste.

This old store has exquisite decoration and a lot of traffic. Ye Bai originally wanted to find a private room, but the space was already gone, so he had to go to the lobby to find a seat near the window.

There were all kinds of businessmen around, talking loudly.

Shunzi leaned close to Ye Bai's ear and whispered: "Third Master, there are Japanese people."

Ye Bai looked at the table next to him, where two people wearing wooden clogs were eating salted duck with soy sauce.

In this era of national turmoil, everyone is well aware of the ambitions of certain people, and will pay extra attention to Japanese people when they see them.

"Eat your food and don't cause trouble."

After the salted duck with sauce was served, Ye Bai mixed it with other foods. It tasted really good.

However, the Japanese next door spoke loudly, which attracted Ye Bai's attention.

Perhaps because they were in China, the two of them communicated in Japanese throughout the whole process without any shyness.

Although Ye Bai had studied Japanese a little in his previous life, he didn't know much. He only heard the words "treasure and send away".

After the two Japanese finished eating, they walked away arm in arm.

Ye Bai ordered: "Shunzi, follow them and see where they live."

During this period, people from a certain country had stolen many treasures from China. If these two Japanese were also responsible for such things, Ye Bai really couldn't let them go.

"Hey, okay." Shunzi quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks, knowing that the third master must have had thoughts about the two Japanese.

As night falls, the shipping dock is brightly lit and bustling, and the sound of workers unloading and moving goods can be heard all the time.

"Third Master, let me ask you clearly. The Japanese will send a truckload of goods tonight."

"What kind of goods is it? Have you found out clearly?"

"The Japanese were watching too closely and couldn't get close. I bribed an unloader and said it was a valuable item. It was tightly wrapped and there seemed to be the sound of clinking porcelain."

Ye Bai nodded. The more nervous the Japanese are about this batch of goods, the greater the value of this batch of goods.

"Do you know the shipping route? Where is the best location for an ambush?"

"All this is clear. I checked it and found that there is a dense forest three kilometers away from the dock, which is suitable for an ambush."

"Okay, bring this guy with you and let's have a big fight tonight."

This batch of goods was almost finished loading. Ye Bai knew that time was running out and rushed towards the ambush with Shunzi.

Although he deliberately stopped these treasures, Ye Bai knew that if the Japanese sent not many escorts, he and Shunzi could still deal with them.

If there are more than ten people escorting him, Ye Bai is not a reckless fool, so he can only create some trouble for the convoy first, and as for the treasure, he can take care of it slowly.

Shunzi led Ye Bai into the dark forest. He wanted to go forward, but was held back by Ye Bai.

"Third Master, what's wrong?"

"There is someone in front. It seems that tonight it is not our family who has thoughts about the Japanese." Ye Bai relied on his good eyesight to notice that there was a figure moving on the small slope in front of him.

"Third Master, are we still going to take action?" Shunzi couldn't help but ask, he had long wanted to fuck the Japanese.

"Let's take a look at the situation first."

Now he is not sure where this group of people came from, and Ye Bai can't draw a conclusion.

The two found a good seat in another corner of the forest and crouched.

Soon, the sound of the car's engine was heard, and three large trucks loaded with goods slowly came from a distance.

"coming!"

Ye Bai squinted his eyes and only heard continuous gunshots, but it was the group of people ambushing Xiaopo who took action.

"Third Master, there's a fight, do we want to go over and help?" Shunzi said hurriedly.

Ye Bai shook his head: "Don't worry, these ambush people are not simple. The gunshots are fired continuously. Currently, only German firearms have this kind of firepower."

"Third Master means that these people are also foreign forces."

"Hard to say."

The three trucks were forced to stop with firepower by the group, but soon, many Japanese in casual clothes were seen emerging from the two trucks in front and behind them.

It turned out that the Japanese were well prepared and arranged for many people to ambush in the truck in advance.

The two groups started fighting, and the sound of gunshots resounded throughout the forest.

Ye Bai and Shunzi couldn't help but feel a little lucky. If they had stopped the convoy rashly, they would probably suffer a lot.

The gunfire lasted for about two minutes, and there were already twenty or thirty corpses lying on the ground. They were all in civilian clothes, and it was impossible to tell which group they belonged to.

But judging from the situation, it seems that more Japanese died.

Ye Bai took Shunzi and moved forward. After seeing that the ambushing group had killed all the scattered Japanese, he opened the truck in the middle and moved things from inside.

However, what surprised them was that these people actually moved a wooden coffin from the truck.

"Third Master, blame me for not finding out the purpose of the Japanese." Shunzi blamed himself for not finding out that there was a coffin in the truck.

"It's okay, the time is too short, and the Japanese have already planned it. It's not your problem."

Ye Bai looked solemn and became more and more curious about the identity of this group of ambushers.

In Hunan, apart from the forces in Xiling and Changsha, who else has such great energy.
