500,000 is a lot of money in 01, and even now it seems quite good. A piece of damaged antique, no matter how you can't say the price, let alone an underground transaction that can't be seen.

So Lao Chen didn't think about it, and raised his hand to slap the girl: "Five hundred." ”

"Are you kidding?"

"If there is no origin and it is broken in half, five hundred is considered a super value, and even if I accept it, no one will ask for it here, and it will lose money. ”

"And what if you know where this thing came from?"

Ah Hong didn't turn his face on the spot, which was a bit unexpected by Lao Chen, so it wasn't as direct as before, he smiled and said: "The origin is also a number, you should tell me first, what is the origin of this thing?"

"My grandfather said that this is the old far-drawn process before the Ming and Qing dynasties. Ah Hong said, while taking out a piece of paper from his pocket, and said slowly: "The outer edge of the thick string pattern frame, the inner concave ground with floating protrusions and yin lines carved out of the phoenix shape, the phoenix feather is an authentic parallel thin yin line, the line pattern is deep, the middle is thick and straight, and the tail is thin and pointed, these are all the main characteristics of Tang Dynasty jade." So no matter what the origin of that tomb is, this is an authentic Tang Yu. ”

"Is this what your grandfather wrote to you?" said Old Chen with a smile. "But even if it's an authentic Tang jade, then what, even if it's Hanyu or jade from earlier, it can't be a few more expensive, unless it's sent to the museum for official appraisal and then marked a price for you, the price must be very expensive. ”

"My grandfather said, Jue is a kind of thing, there is a saying called "Peerless Jue", Boss Chen doesn't think it's a bit strange to use this thing to press the coffin?"

"It's a little weird, but what does it have to do with what we're talking about now?"

"So do you want to know if the people who paid me to take them to the tomb didn't come to meet me at the appointed time, and released my pigeons very discredited?"

"Why?"

"Did you read last month's newspaper?"

"It's watching every day, what?"

"The newspaper mentioned that there were family members in Luoyang, Henan Province who didn't know why they killed each other, and as a result, all seven members of the family died, do you remember?"

"Of course I do. It is said that he died for a long time before he was discovered, because the place where he lived was far from the city and the population was sparse. ”

"Yes. In fact, the family was all tomb robbers, that is, the group of people who asked me to open the tomb, calculating the time, when they had an accident, it was almost the time when they made an appointment with me to open the tomb together. ”

"Oh, then, since they are a family, and they are going to go with you to open the tomb, why would they suddenly kill each other?"

"I don't know. But my grandfather said that some tombs are living tombs, that is, the yin qi is too heavy, so they have become fine tombs. They can confuse people, just like ghosts, so they chose to kill each other on the day they went with me to open the tomb, probably because of the tomb. ”

"Oh,. ”

"Believe it or not, Boss Chen has never experienced this kind of thing all the time sitting in the store, so it's not easy to listen to. However, grandpa also said that if Boss Chen doesn't believe it, you can inquire about it, in ancient times, there was a method of using Yu Jue to suppress corpses, which was said to be specially used to suppress the kind of people who died resentfully. ”

"You mean, this jade jue is used to suppress corpses?"

"The possibilities are high. ”

"Heh, if this is what you call the way you came, then I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't even give you five hundred. Such a dirty thing, I'm afraid it's a little hot in my hand. ”

"Burning means fire, the more prosperous the fire, the more prosperous the wealth, don't you want to get rich, Boss Chen. ”

"What do you mean. ”

"Look boss, you are not very old, you may not have been doing this business for a long time, although the reputation is good, I am afraid that there are some things that no one will mention to you. ”

"For example?"

"For example, with Jue Zhen corpse, the tomb owner must be either rich or expensive during his lifetime, the cause of death may be violent death, or it may be guilty and die unwillingly, so at the same time as using Jue Zhen corpse, the person who buried him will also bury him in the tomb with some things he played with before his death, so as to fade his anger. Those things must be worth a lot of money, so if you come across such a tomb, you will either be unlucky or make a windfall. ”

"It turns out that the value is not in the jade itself, but in the tomb. ”

"Yes. And when I removed it from the coffin board that day, I realized that this piece of jade was supposed to be something like a mechanism, and I moved it before I understood it in advance, and almost released the contents of the coffin. But if you know the correct usage of it, I think it should be possible for Mrs. Ping Ping to please the Ming Vessel inside. ”

"You mean, you paid 500,000 yuan for me to buy this so-called coffin switch, and then go to that tomb by yourself, find a way to open the coffin safely, and then take out the Ming utensils inside and sell them to make a fortune?"

"Yes. ”

"Hehe......"

"So when you buy this jade, I will give you a map to go to that tomb. After speaking, Ah Hong took out a piece of paper from his coat pocket that was almost unshaped, pinched it in his hand and raised it at Lao Chen.

Lao Chen smiled dumbly: "Girl, you are teasing me, right?" You are so frightened that you have a hundred tombs in your hands and fled back, and people like me who have never even seen what the ancient tombs look like can still have their lives back?"

"The boss doesn't know the goods, but he has his own people. Since I can't talk about the price with Boss Chen, I'll ask elsewhere. ”

After speaking, Ah Hong picked up Yu Jue and the map, turned around and prepared to leave.

Seeing her so simply, Lao Chen didn't know what he was doing at that time, so he reflexively stopped her: "When it comes to negotiating the price, it is originally a process of talking slowly, and it has to be said that everyone can accept it in their hearts, and this transaction can only be done." Why don't you sit down for a while, I'll go inside to make a pot of tea, let's talk while drinking, after all, the price is expensive, I always know more about this piece of jade, are you right?

Ah Hong listened to him and stayed.

Later, Lao Chen said that if he knew what would happen later, he would never keep this weird little girl, let alone go to the back room to make that cup of tea, otherwise, he would definitely be able to see something from it.

But the world is unpredictable.

Who would have thought that just a short time after Lao Chen entered the house to make tea, Ah Hong would die.

Lao Chen said that in fact, when he felt chills all over his body as soon as he came out of the back room, he sensed that something was wrong. The weather in Guangzhou in April is really not cold, the average is about 20 degrees, and the lowest can be 15 degrees, but when he poured a glass of water and walked from the inner room to the outer room, he felt that the temperature outside was actually more than ten degrees lower than that inside.

So the goosebumps all over his body rose all of a sudden, especially when he saw Ah Hong sitting on the chair, his hands trembled so much that he almost didn't spill the water in his hands.

He saw Ah Hong's face turned blue, his hands curled, and he hugged his chest as if he was grasping something, tilting his head and leaning straight on his Taishi chair.

Seeing that her two eyes, which were originally squinting, were rolling upwards, and her wide open mouth was dripping outward, Lao Chen thought that she was suffering from some kind of acute illness. Hurriedly ran over and pushed her, but as soon as she touched her, she fell to the ground like a stone, and when she touched her nose, she didn't have any breath, and she knew that something was wrong, so she hurriedly dialed the emergency number.

When the people from the emergency center came to check, they directly packed her away with a body bag. But when he left, one of the first responders said just a few words, so that Lao Chen's whole body froze in place as if he was dead, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

The man said, "What are you doing, you only thought of calling 120 when you were out of the corpse spots?"

Tian Ke can testify that Ah Hong will not take more than half an hour from life to death and then to the arrival of an ambulance.

But the first responder said that Ah Hong's body had already been spotted.

Does this mean that Ah Hong was already a corpse before he arrived at his shop?

He wondered if he had misheard. How could a corpse come here alive to sell him a piece of jade, alive and able to say that it could move and still have body temperature?

Thinking about this, he couldn't figure it out, Lao Chen only felt like he was in a dream.

A nightmare that was both real and terrifying.

But it would be nice if it was really a dream, but the half of Jue and a lump of maps left on the table by the girl clearly reminded him that the previous qiē had really happened.

They really lingered on the warmth of Ah Hong's body, and the strange smell of her long-term immersion in various grave pieces.

This should have made Lao Chen return them to Ah Hong's family as soon as possible, or find a place to dispose of them directly.

But for some reason, after being told by the hospital that housed Ah Hong's body that it could not reach Ah Hong's only relative, that is, her grandfather, Lao Chen did not dispose of the jade and map, but kept them and kept them in his home.

Later, as the business at hand gradually improved, and the value of the investment property rose rapidly, he gradually forgot what happened that night and the two things that the girl named Ah Hong had left with him in his busy life. It wasn't until his career was in full swing that he couldn't remember anything, otherwise, he wouldn't have accepted the other half of the Fengjue in the hands of the man surnamed Li at all, and no matter what, he had to find out from the man's mouth about the origin of the half of the Fengjue in his hand.

But it's too late.

He didn't know if the man was a human or a ghost, just as he couldn't figure out whether that Ah Hong was a living person or a corpse when he came to him. This terrible feeling instantly reminded him of an indescribable coldness and fear he felt on the night Ah Hong died, so he hurriedly left Tianguang Ruins at the moment, who wanted to go home Not long after, he was almost killed by an illness.

The disease is pneumonia.

It's a very common illness, but somehow I have a high fever of more than 40 degrees for several days, and I can't suppress it with any medicine.

Almost to the point of insanity. Fortunately, on the night when the hospital was about to issue a critical illness notice, he woke up, and the high fever that had lasted for seven days finally began to subside. At that time, his wife was so happy that she lay on his hospital bed and held his hand and cried, so that in spite of the panic in his heart, he never told his fragile wife, whom he saw at first sight when he was awake.

He felt like he had seen Ah Hong.

He stood behind his wife, as she had done at the moment of her death, her fingers bent over her chest, her head tilted, her mouth wide open and slightly squirming as if she were saying something as if she were talking about something as if she were talking about something as she was staring straight at the sky with her crooked eyes.

But what did you say? Lao Chen couldn't hear a word clearly.

Only streaks of saliva kept dripping down the corners of her mouth, almost all of which landed on Lao Chen's wife's hair, and she didn't know about it.
