Chapter 129: Surprise



She wailed, "No way! Where on earth did this little devil draw the treasure hiding place?

There's clearly nothing, yet they're putting so much trouble into finding it, and it's causing so many problems. She seriously suspects this is a conspiracy by the Japanese."

She thought about it and decided to give up, it was too brain-consuming. If it really didn't work, she would give the painting to Xiao Yihan and ask him to see if he could find some clues.

When you have no ideas, just relax first. You might get inspired inadvertently. She decided to play with her grandfather for a while.

So she ran to the cinema to find her grandfather. When she entered the cinema, she found her grandfather holding a hamburger in his right hand and a Coke in his left hand, with French fries and ketchup on the table, and he and Jiang Jiang were watching a cartoon intently.

She quietly sat down next to her grandfather, picked up the French fries from the table, dipped them in some ketchup, and put them in her mouth to chew.

Grandpa glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and said, "Xiao Qiu, why are you here? Did you make any important discoveries?"

Chu Jingqiu said dejectedly, "Those paintings look normal. There's nothing suspicious about them. How could they be treasure maps?"

Mr. He pondered for a moment, then took off his 3D glasses and said, "How about this! Show me the painting, and I'll see if I can find any clues."

The light in the cinema was too dim, so Chu Jingqiu led her grandfather to an office in the space and handed the two paintings to Grandpa He.

Mr. He first picked up a painting and examined it carefully, feeling around with his hands bit by bit, occasionally putting it under his nose to smell it.

After checking the famous calligraphy and painting and indeed finding no problems, he picked up another one and began to check it using the same method.

Suddenly he stopped what he was doing and sniffed the right corner of the painting repeatedly. "Xiao Qiu, go find an oil lamp or a candle."

Chu Jingqiu looked at his grandfather in confusion, but still went to the Space Mall to get a few candles.

Chu Jingqiu lit the candle and placed it on the table in front of her grandfather.

He Qixian picked up a corner of the painting "Green Mountains and Autumn Waters" and heated it with a candle. After a while, several lines of brown words appeared in the corner.

Chu Jingqiu said in surprise: "There is a secret hidden here! Grandpa, how did you come up with this idea?"

Mr. He glanced at her and said slowly, "When we were doing underground work to pass on messages, we had special potions. One needed to be roasted with fire, and the other needed to be smeared with a special potion to appear.

I touched it and smelled it, and based on my years of experience, I knew it was the kind of potion that needed to be heated to reveal the words."

The grandfather and grandson carefully examined the text on the painting. It was a poem written in cursive script: "Outside the cave, the sky is not vast; the grass is green for ten miles by the river. Growing up in the deep palace, I don't know the mountains. Not only do the clouds fly, but the geese fly too. Look at the waterfall cascading down the cliff; the rice soup becomes hollow in the middle of the day."

Chu Jingqiu and Mr. He studied it carefully and found that this was a poem with a hidden end, which could be put together as: Feipu Cave in Daqing Mountain.

Grandpa, this should be the place where the treasure is hidden. I seem to have seen this waterfall before. There is a waterfall deep in the mountains of Daqing Mountain. It is very spectacular.

Does this Feipu Cave refer to the cave behind the waterfall, which is similar to the Water Curtain Cave in "Journey to the West"?

I didn't notice if there was a cave behind the waterfall at the time. This matter is of great importance. We must go out and discuss with Yi Han to see what to do."

Mr. He said seriously, "If there really is so much wealth here, it is indeed no small matter. Yi Han will have to ask his superiors for instructions. Let's go home immediately."

Chu Jingqiu hurriedly wrapped the painting with a piece of cloth, and then the grandfather and grandson took Jiang Jiang out of the space and walked quickly from the park to home.

As soon as I reached the gate of the compound, I saw Xiao Yihan and Qi Yue riding their bicycles towards me.

Seeing the grandfather and grandson, Xiao Yihan quickly got off the bicycle, "Grandpa He, Xiaoqiu, we were just about to go to your house to look for you!"

Mr. He glanced at the two of them, waved his hand behind his back, and said kindly, "Let's go! We just happened to have something to talk to you about. Let's talk about it when we get home."

When they arrived at the He family's house, Xiao Yihan and Qi Yue parked their bicycles in the yard, and then they went into the house.

As soon as they entered the house, Mr. He welcomed Xiao Yihan and Qi Yue into the study. Chu Jingqiu made a pot of tea for them and Mr. He closed the door.

Chu Jingqiu took out the painting and handed it to Xiao Yihan, "Yihan, grandpa and I found the painting with the treasure location written on it.

Look at the hidden poem in the lower right corner. It says: Daqingshan Feipu Cave.

Xiao Yihan nodded. He took it and took a look at it. Then he told Mr. He about the interrogation of Li Qingpu and the failed ambush.

After saying this, Xiao Yihan continued his thoughts, "Grandpa He, I didn't expect there was someone behind Li Qingpu. This person is of a higher level and more cunning. He is much more difficult to deal with than Li Qingpu.

We came here today to look for this painting. Li Qingpu has checked all 28 painters one by one, and only your family has not been checked yet.

If there really were so much wealth hidden in the Daqing Mountains, Taotie would never give up easily. The fact that they have been searching for it for so many years is enough to prove the authenticity of this news.

But in the short term, 'Taotie' has lost its right-hand man and left-hand man, so it should keep a low profile for a while.

As long as the treasure is not exposed, he will definitely not give up looking for it. According to his practice, he should split his forces into two groups to search for it.

After Ma Mengjiao was exposed, he would definitely send other people to search in Daqing Mountain, but the treasure painting has not been found in your house yet.

In fact, we can also report to our superiors directly and move all the treasures inside, so that we may lose the opportunity to catch the "Taotie" spies in one fell swoop.

But no matter what, I will not allow you to be in danger again. The enemy must know that the painting is not in your home, so that you can be completely safe."

Chu Jingqiu thought for a moment, and said with a firm face: “Yihan, leave this important task to me, and then the news spread that my father had already given me the painting and asked me to copy it.

We will lure all the spies to Daqingshan, so that our family will be safe and they won't harm my grandfather and my father."

Xiao Yihan and Mr. He shouted at the same time: "No!"

Grandpa He said earnestly, "Xiao Qiu, Grandpa knows you are a good child, but Grandpa is not made of paper. You are still a child, and the only child in our family. I will never allow you to take any risks."

Xiao Yihan also said with a sullen face: "Xiao Qiu, even if you know a little bit of martial arts, you may not be able to defeat those cunning spies. I will never allow you, a little girl, to bear all the risks alone.

Don't worry about this matter. I'll take the painting away and report to my superiors to see what to do next. Before that, you can't act on your own. I will definitely come up with a foolproof plan."
