Chapter 130 Chapter 130
The tailor was stunned after hearing this.
What did the curator mean by "the curator took the golden statue of the Tenth Hall of Hell?
" How come they didn't know that the golden statue of the Tenth Hall of Hell was stored in the museum?
He didn't care about picking up the cultural relics now. He carefully put the things in his arms on the sofa and trotted after Gu Yan.
Di Ting led the way in front, through the museum, and finally arrived at a small closed door in the corner of the museum.
The small door was locked, with a sign of "forbidden" hanging on it, and a red flannel fence was placed in front of the door.
"Here, this is where we usually put the cultural relics that have been repaired but not on display for the time being." said the tailor.
After walking around the door, Di Ting walked through it. Not long after, a slight unlocking sound came from inside. The small door was opened. As soon as
Gu Yan stepped inside, he immediately felt a faint fluctuation, which was very similar to the fluctuation of Yan Jun in their world.
After passing through a narrow corridor, the door of the room at the end was wide open. In the darkness, he could see the faint golden light inside.
It seemed to be there.
After entering the room, he turned on the switch on the wall. The scene in the small room was in full view. On the table in the middle were some newly repaired cultural relics. In addition, the table against the wall was filled with large and small objects.
He had already seen the golden body of the Ten Courts of Yanluo in it.
Gu Yanyi took off his head-mounted camera and said to the camera: "Okay, dear fans, the following content is confidential to the museum and cannot be leaked. Nanpan City Museum welcomes your visit. See you next time. Bye."
After that, he turned off the live broadcast.
After putting away the camera, Gu Yanyi walked to the golden statue of the Ten Courts of Hell in the corner and whispered: "Yan Jun, Ten Courts of Hell, can you hear my voice?"
The golden light was still on, but no golden statue responded.
He called three times like this, and the golden statue did not move at all.
Di Ting rushed to one of the golden statues, stood beside it and looked at Gu Yanyi.
Gu Yan frowned, walked to the golden statue, pointed at the golden statue, and slowly injected spiritual power into it.
The golden aura on the golden statue gradually became stronger.
"...Who awakened me?" The golden statue said in a stern voice. After seeing that it was Gu Yan, he said, "Who are you? Are you a cultivator? Why do you have spiritual power? ...Who is next to you, Di Ting?"
Di Ting happily circled around his golden statue.
Gradually, a phantom appeared above the golden statue. His clothes were exactly the same as the golden statue. He looked around in confusion, as if he didn't understand why he was here.
"Where is this place? Why are we not in the ancestral temple? Why am I the only Lord Yan who has awakened?"
He locked onto Gu Yanyi, who had awakened him, and floated in front of him, saying, "I am the King of Pingdeng, who is in charge of the Great Hell of Infinity. What is your name?"
Someone who knew where their golden bodies were and could awaken them must be someone extraordinary. But he didn't know what the hell was like now that it had disappeared.
Gu Yanyi could guess what Lord Yan was thinking, but these things should be discussed in detail in a suitable place. This was not the place for a good conversation.
He then asked the tailor: "They are the golden bodies of the Ten Kings of Hell in the human world. It's true. The Black and White Impermanence have been looking for them for a long time. Can I take them back?"
The tailor did not dare to make a decision on his own. He called the curator for instructions.
As soon as the call was connected, before he could say anything, the curator's voice came over: "What's going on over there? Why did Mr. Gu cut off the live broadcast so quickly? I'm on my way now and will be there in ten minutes. You must wait for me!" After saying that, he hung up.
Tailor: ...
Tailor looked at Gu Yanyi blankly.
Gu Yan shrugged: "Then wait."
...
The curator said ten minutes, but just after five minutes, there was a sound of hurried footsteps and rapid breathing outside the corridor.
As soon as he entered the door, he almost bumped into the golden jade clothes blocking the door.
He cried "ouch ouch" and his gloved hands directly touched the golden jade clothes, muttering "It's alive, it's alive, it's true that the golden jade clothes are a unique craft in the world."
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the tailor always feels that the golden jade clothes seems to have raised its chin a degree, and even thrust its chest forward.
Then the curator wanted to touch the high priest's robe, but was easily avoided by the other party.
The female corpse smiled and said, "Mr. Curator, we have something important to talk to you about."
When the curator saw the female corpse, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Sure enough...Sure enough, she is a beauty...Ah, Princess, my compliment is absolutely not meant to be blasphemous!"
Although the female corpse was often praised for her beauty when she was alive, she has never heard such words since she died. After hearing this, she was overjoyed and praised the curator for his vision.
The sewist stood aside and sighed in his heart: Sure enough, the old ginger is still the spicier. The curator flattered the two cultural relics as soon as he appeared.
The curator walked towards Gu Yanyi and shook his hand before he opened his mouth, shaking it up and down excitedly: "Mr. Gu, Master Gu, thanks to you, our museum has been spared a huge loss!"
His gratitude was overflowing, and he said many words of gratitude without repeating himself. If Gu Yanyi hadn't interrupted him, I think the curator could have continued to praise him for an hour.
Gu Yanyi: "Director, I accept your words of thanks, but can I take this golden statue away?"
The curator naturally had no objection.
According to him, when the modern town was first built, the townspeople originally planned to demolish the ancestral hall and sell these golden statues.
They themselves did not know when the ancestral hall was built, they only knew that it had been there since their grandparents’ generation, but they heard that the villagers did not like to go there to worship, because several people in the village had died after worshipping there before, and they all thought that the ancestral hall was unlucky.
The ancestral hall was completely abandoned.
Later, when the town was planned, they simply planned to demolish the ancestral hall and sell the golden statues inside. If the curator who passed by had not seen them and bought them, who knows where these golden statues would have ended up, or whether they could be preserved intact. After
saying this, the curator rubbed his hands and hesitated for a moment, and said, "Um, Master, can I discuss something with you?"
Gu Yanyi: "Just tell me."
Curator: "That's right, these three cultural relics... Can you not take them back?"
Gu Yanyi:?
Gu Yanyi: "I'm just here to take back the golden statue of Yan Jun." Such three large cultural relics really don't fit in that house, and he didn't come here just to collect stamps.
After hearing this, the curator's eyes lit up, and after a moment, a distressed expression appeared on his face again.
He asked: "Then... Master Gu, what do you think... If we let them continue to work in the museum, is it feasible?"
Gu Yanyi understood.
So this is what the curator had in mind.
He also understood that the supernatural rumors in the museum had brought a qualitative leap to the business of the museum. If the matter was resolved and the supernatural phenomena disappeared, I'm afraid the flow of tourists would return to the previous state.
The curator said somewhat embarrassedly: "You don't know, Nanpan City is not very big, and the permanent population is not large. Our museum has almost no visitors on weekdays, and the ticket revenue can't even cover the daily electricity bill... This time the government's appropriation has been reduced, and our staff's wages have been in arrears for some time..."
If he hadn't really had no other choice, he wouldn't have made this request to Gu Yanyi.
In fact, he made this request, which was also risky.
From the live broadcast just now, everyone can see that the high priest and the golden jade clothes are offensive.
The golden jade clothes are invulnerable to swords and guns, and one foot can step out a pit on the concrete floor. The high priest's gourd silk can easily control souls.
But the museum's income is pitifully small. If there is no more gimmick to attract people, it will go bankrupt in three years, and all the exhibited cultural relics will be transferred to museums in other provinces.
After all, whether it is the daily water and electricity bills of the museum or the maintenance costs of the cultural relics, they all cost a lot.
Gu Yanyi looked at the three cultural relics standing at the door: "What do you think?"
The female corpse smiled: "I don't mind, this is my hometown, and I don't want to leave."
The high priest and the two mouthless creatures also told Gu Yanyi with their special telepathic skills that they would not leave here.
Gu Yanyi: "They can all continue to stay in the museum, but... they have conditions. - First of all, they don't plan to continue to be cultural relics in the display cabinets, but to become employees of the museum."
The conditions include but are not limited to: normal employee treatment, daily incense offerings, the museum cannot restrict their freedom, cannot restrict them from leaving the display cabinets... and so on.
After hearing this, the curator nodded repeatedly.
These requirements are simply too reasonable. Since the cultural relics have gained intelligence, it is difficult for him to treat them as dead objects.
Their current role is more like the employees dressed as cartoon characters in Disney. They can walk around the museum at will. The only requirement is that they cannot leave before the museum closes.
Of course, it is not the museum that signed the contract with them, but Gu Yanyi.
What they signed was not a paper contract, but a contract sworn by their souls. If they violated the oath, they would be struck by lightning and their souls would be scattered.
The promise prohibited them from harming tourists and promised to arrange a place suitable for them to practice.
The rest of the various work treatments were negotiated between them and the museum.
Fortunately, the female mummy could speak, so there was no obstacle to communication between the two sides.
The tailor was dumbfounded when he saw this development.
He only thought about solving the problem of cultural relics destroying themselves, but he didn't expect that their curator could think so far ahead, and had already considered the future development direction of the museum and started recruiting non-human employees...
After that, Gu Yanyi inspected the surroundings of the museum, combined with the museum's Feng Shui terrain, adjusted the arrangement of flowers, plants and trees, created a Feng Shui array eye, and added a layer of barrier, so that the three cultural relics can meditate and cultivate in it to improve their cultivation.
After doing all this, Gu Yanyi explained to the curator, and then took the golden body of the Ten Courts of Hell home.
As soon as he stepped out of the teleportation array, the Black and White Impermanence came to meet him.
"Yan Jun! (Yan Jun!)"
"Fan Wujiu (Xie Bi'an) finally sees you!"
