Chapter Eighty-Five: To the Old Mansion
After appeasing Lao K, Chen Tian hung up the phone.
Although he didn't know what the copper coin that Lao K asked him to find was, after receiving the photo, he still asked Su Ningxue.
"Do your Su family have the habit of collecting antiques?"
"My grandfather has this hobby, which can be said to be very fanatical, but my father doesn't like it, so my grandfather's treasures are basically in the old house. Su Ningxue opened her mouth to answer, and then wondered: "By the way, why did you suddenly ask this? Could it be related to finding the key?"
"It's kind of related, but it's not important, just ask. Chen Tian nodded and replied, but did not explain.
After all, Lao K asked him to keep this matter a secret, so he just responded simply.
However, Su Ningxue was not relieved when she heard this, so she continued to ask: "Then are you looking for something?" You can tell me first, and I can help you think about where you are on the way there. ”
"You also have a hobby of collecting?"
Chen Tian was surprised by the woman's answer, so he followed up and said what Lao K explained: "Actually, what I want to find is a copper coin, it is very special, it has four different complex patterns on it, which is different from ordinary copper coins." ”
"My grandfather collected a lot of copper coins. ”
Su Ningxue nodded in response, but then she wondered again: "What kind of copper coin are you looking for?"
"There are photos, but you can't show them after you see them, whether you can find them or not!"
Hearing this, Su Ningxue was stunned, but soon when she thought of Chen Tian's mysterious identity, she was immediately relieved: "Don't worry, I won't go out and talk nonsense, because I just want to help you!"
With this guarantee, Chen Tian did not hesitate any longer, and immediately took out the photo sent by Lao K.
When Su Ningxue saw it, she was not only immediately surprised, but also gave an extremely favorable clue.
"I don't know if I've seen this coin somewhere, I'm not sure if it's the one I've seen, but if nothing else, grandpa should have kept it. ”
Chen Tian was surprised by Su Ningxue's reaction, and followed suit.
Although he knew that this woman might not be able to find the copper coin, combined with the news of Lao K, he still ignited hope.
"Are you sure you've seen it?
Faced with the inquiry, Su Ningxue nodded and replied: "A few years ago, I saw it when I was in the old mansion, and I was impressed when I saw that it looked different from other copper coins." And I still remember that my grandfather said that this copper coin was very special and that there was a secret in it. ”
"But what it was, grandpa didn't say, so I didn't ask much. ”
Hearing this, Chen Tian was surprised again.
Although he didn't know what the secret of this copper coin was, it should be related to the secret of the Su family, and if there was no accident, the clues of the copper coin this time would definitely be one step ahead of the black box, so he made a decision immediately.
"This copper coin is most likely related to the black box, to be precise, to be related to the secret that your grandfather was hiding before. If I can find it this time, I may need to take it away, and if I find something like this again, I'll let me know as soon as possible!"
"It's okay to take it, but then you have to tell me the reason, or I won't agree!"
Su Ningxue's answer was expected by Chen Tian, even if he didn't know anything until now, but thinking that Lao K wouldn't let him find this thing for no reason, he agreed.
"Don't worry, as long as there are clues, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible!"
......
found the clue of the copper coin, Chen Tian did not delay any longer, and immediately took Su Ningxue to the Su family's old house.
Although the journey was long, fortunately there was no turmoil, and they arrived at their destination in the afternoon.
"Did you arrange for someone from the Su family to pick you up before you came?"
After getting off the plane and seeing several strangers appearing in the direction of the exit, Chen Tian immediately asked.
When Su Ningxue heard this, she glanced at the opposite side first, then nodded and replied, "When you decided to come here yesterday, I notified them. ”
Hearing this, Chen Tian immediately relaxed and nodded.
Because as long as these people are not arranged by Su Demu, they are not in danger.
"How long does it take to get from the airport to your Su family's old house? If it's too late, you can go directly to the hotel, and I'll go there alone to have a look." ”
Faced with the inquiry, Su Ningxue was surprised, and shook her head: "It will take about two hours, but if you plan to go to the old mansion today, you must take me with you, otherwise you may not even be able to enter the door." ”
"Can't get in? Why?"
Chen Tian was surprised by Su Ningxue's reminder, so he asked, "Don't they know my identity?"
Hearing this, Su Ningxue glanced at him in surprise, then shook her head and replied.
"It's not that I don't know, but grandpa's arrangement!"
"When my grandfather was still alive before, he issued a ban that anyone who was not an immediate member of our Su family could not enter the Su family's old house. But don't worry, if I take you over, Uncle Li, who is the gatekeeper, won't say anything. ”
Hearing the explanation, Chen Tian was immediately relieved, but he was curious.
"Who is this Uncle Li? Could it be your grandfather's housekeeper?"
"It's about the same, but his status is higher than that of a housekeeper!" Su Ningxue affirmed Chen Tian's guess and continued to explain: "When my grandfather was still alive before, he trusted this Uncle Li very much, so he was put in charge of guarding the Su family's old mansion all these years. ”
"So, he shouldn't be Su Demu's man?"
Chen Tian continued to speculate, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Although he hadn't seen this Uncle Li yet, his intuition told him that this Uncle Li was not simple, especially after guarding the Su family's old mansion for so long, this person must have some city government.
"I don't know about this, because I only come back here occasionally, but don't worry, Uncle Li is very good, and with me taking you there, he will definitely not embarrass you. ”
Hearing the answer, Chen Tian didn't ask any more questions.
After all, he was about to see this Uncle Li, coupled with Su Ningxue's explanation, so it was superfluous to ask again.
However, unexpectedly, just as they went out and were about to join the Su family, Su Ningxue whispered a reminder in the back.
"Chen Tian, don't talk too much when you see Uncle Li later, especially about the key and copper coins, you just need to follow me, and I will arrange everything. ”
Hearing this, Chen Tian was surprised.
Although he knew that there might be some rules on the side of the old mansion, he didn't expect it to be so strict, which surprised him and couldn't help but wonder.
"Why do you say that? Does this Uncle Li look down on me?"
"It's not that I can't look down on you, but I ......"
Su Ningxue was embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "Forget it, I'll tell you directly, this Uncle Li has always only listened to my grandfather, and when my grandfather was alive before, he explained to him that no one can take away the things in the old mansion." ”
"Later, my grandfather left suddenly, and he didn't explain to him, and now even it is difficult for me to take things from the old house, and if he knows that we are here to get things, he will definitely not agree, so when you get to the place, you can act according to my eyes. ”
