Time passed quickly.
Half a day later, Zhang Tian and others arrived at Beidong City again.
It was still the muddy road, but if you looked closely, you could see that some red couplets had already begun to be placed along the roadside.
Red, festive paper cuttings, and so on.
In this era, the New Year spirit was very strong.
Everyone attached great importance to the New Year.
It could be said to be one of the most important festivals for every person in Xia Nation, with the Qingming Festival being another equally important one.
But unfortunately, after Xia Nation banned firecrackers for several hundred years, everything seemed to have faded.
And that year, they also wore masks.
"Boss, look, sky rockets!"
Fatty excitedly shouted, pointing at a stall not far away.
"Daddy, Daddy, Tuan Tuan wants that, that!"
Xiao Tuan Tuan, in Jie Yuchen's arms, pointed her small hand at a cute little rabbit doll on a stall not far away.
Foxes eat rabbits, and seeing a rabbit doll now, the little girl's eyes lit up.
"Brother Hua Hua will buy it for you, okay?"
Jie Yuchen stroked Xiao Tuan Tuan's hair and quickly walked towards the stall.
Zhang Tian: "Godfather???"
When did this happen? How come he didn't know!
"Boss, aren't you going to buy anything to take back?"
Hu Bayi also walked up to a small stall and bought some local specialties from Beidong.
When people mention Beidong, the first impression is probably that it's very rustic, with lots of Yangko dancing.
In reality, this is not the case. Beidong has a deep cultural heritage, otherwise, there wouldn't be so many large tombs and royal tombs here.
As for food, there are also many, such as black fungus and Guo Bao Rou, which are local specialties.
And in this era, it was not easy to buy black fungus.
In fact, every city has its unique heritage. If you are prejudiced, then your thinking is wrong.
You need to reflect under the red flag.
Afterward, Zhang Tian also bought some specialties here.
Beidong also has many fungi and mushrooms, so Zhang Tian specifically bought a lot.
Zhang Qilin picked out a few clothes, all black, of course.
He said they were for Zhang Yufei.
Wearing black clothes during the New Year, it's incredible he could think of that.
Then, carrying bags of specialties, several people walked into the train carriage.
Xiao Tuan Tuan had a tiger-head hat on her head at some point.
This year is the Year of the Tiger, and the little tiger-head hat on Xiao Tuan Tuan's head made her look fierce and cute.
However, because Tuan Tuan had white hair, she attracted a lot of attention.
But seeing Tuan Tuan's cute face, the surprise turned into praise.
The group boarded the train and headed for Beili.
Meanwhile, in Beili.
Wu Family.
"It's been half a month, and according to the news, the Jie family's boy hasn't returned."
In the Wang family's ancestral hall, a man in black stood straight, looking at a dark shadow in the hall.
"By the way, has that Zhang Tian, who was close to the Jie family before, been investigated?"
"Yes, it's done. His name is Zhang Tian. He owns an antique shop, and the rest of his life is like an ordinary person."
As he spoke, the dark shadow trembled slightly.
"You may go."
After speaking, the dark shadow quickly bowed and left.
Inside the ancestral hall.
"Strange, such an ordinary person, yet the Jie family is so close to him. Moreover, he also attended an auction, bought a compass, and even had his fortune told."
The dark shadow muttered, a hint of suspicion growing in his heart.
At this moment, in the Jie family.
Second Master looked at the falling snow outside the window and thought of Jie Yuchen.
"I wonder how Xiao Hua is doing."
"This experience should make him give up."
"I don't know what kind of tomb Zhang Tian and the others went to. With Zhang Tian's strength, it should be a small tomb..."
Er Yuehong thought to himself. In his opinion, Zhang Tian, a mere child, could only go to small graves.
Insignificant.
Looking at the falling snow, Er Yuehong sighed.
"Now, the Beili aristocratic families are starting to have internal strife. I'm afraid a major reshuffle is about to begin. No one knows who will be the last one standing."
Er Yuehong muttered. The major families in Beili had already started to stir.
The Wu family, Wang family, Huo family, and others were all secretly engaged in unsavory dealings.
"Damn it, Fatty, I've been grounded at home for half a month. It's almost New Year, and Grandpa specifically told me to go out and buy New Year's goods. Hurry up, let's discuss if we can go tomb raiding."
Wu Tianzhen said excitedly in a low voice at the door.
"Tianzhen, really, you're the only one who would think of tomb raiding during the New Year."
"Fatty thinks we should celebrate the New Year properly first."
Wang Banyue said. Wu Tianzhen spoke earnestly.
"What we're doing is contributing to the people, contributing to the country."
Saying that, the two headed towards the market.
At the Zhang family's antique shop.
"That brat still hasn't come back, I'm so angry. I'll deal with him when he gets back."
Li Xueqin said, holding a chicken feather duster and scolding.
"Our son might be out chasing girls, so don't get so worked up. Besides, isn't Qilin also not back?"
Zhang Yufei said speechlessly from the side.
"Is it the same? Qilin is our informant, monitoring that brat. Besides, if he could chase girls, our ancestral graves would be emitting green smoke."
"No, it's your Zhang family's ancestral graves that would likely be on fire!"
Li Xueqin pouted, saying with a look of disappointment and anger.
"Maybe he'll come back with a child this time, so don't worry about it. Besides, it's almost New Year, shouldn't we prepare a gift for Qilin first!"
"Yes, yes, it's Qilin's first New Year at home, we must prepare a gift!"
Li Xueqin said, and quickly went to plan a gift for Zhang Qilin.
As for Zhang Tian, he had long been forgotten.
"Ah-choo!"
On the train, Zhang Tian sneezed twice consecutively.
"Boss, do you have a cold?"
Fatty, on the side, asked while touching a treasure he found in the tomb.
"No, I just feel like someone is talking about me behind my back."
Zhang Tian shook his head, and the image of his parents flashed in his mind.
It must be them talking about him, and the topic of conversation would definitely be unusual!
"Young Master Zhang, I never expected that Tuan Tuan is actually a fox spirit in disguise."
Jie Yuchen also learned about Tuan Tuan's situation.
He was somewhat surprised.
This was the first time he had encountered such a thing.
"Even weasels can transform, so it's not surprising she can."
"Besides, this little thing can't even hide its tail."
Zhang Tian said casually. Although the little fox's tail was small and perky, looking very cute, it was still a bit strange.
"Boss, when we get back, we'll go find Big Golden Tooth. He'll be happy if we sell this thing to him."
Fatty said excitedly, holding the corpse-raising bead.
Zhang Tian was speechless. If outsiders didn't know, they would think Fatty was cursing Big Golden Tooth to die quickly.
"Well, I think Master Jin will definitely like it."
"I think so too."
Fatty happily stroked the bead, already picturing the hundreds of thousands he would receive.
Soon, several days later.
The speed of the train was truly unbearable.
It took several days to reach Beili.
At Beili train station.
In the distance, it was a sea of people.
"Young Master Zhang, it was a pleasure to explore with you this time. I'll be going back now."
Jie Yuchen clasped his fists and said seriously.
Zhang Tian nodded, and then Jie Yuchen rushed home.
Meanwhile, Zhang Tian, holding Tuan Tuan, attracted a lot of attention.
