Xu Minghao stood in place and looked at the few people who returned to their respective posts, and suddenly felt a little moved in his heart, they all said so, why am I so hypocritical, he shook his head with a smile, and then returned to his office, he took out the beeswax he borrowed from the Tong sisters and compared it with the photos on the computer, sure enough, the shape is exactly the same, so to speak, Lin Yunzi is also one of the important clues to the treasure, but now that Lin Xiao is gone, the people who know Lin Yunzi's whereabouts don't know if there is any more. He sighed, and enlarged the photo a little more, this phoenix's eye is this beeswax, so what is the stamen of this flower? This hole looks very familiar, but he can't think of it for a while. He stared at the stamen all afternoon, and he didn't come up with anything until Gu Xiaochen called him and asked him to have dinner together, and he came back to his senses.

When Yueyanglou returned to gilt that night, he realized that something was wrong when he entered the door, Gu Xiaochen sat alone on the sofa in the center of the gilt dance hall, and did not turn on the light, he was half sitting and half lying on the sofa with a wine glass. He stepped forward slowly, and at this time, there was a "clang", and a huge incandescent lamp shone from behind Gu Xiaochen, shaking so much that he couldn't open his eyes. "Gu Shao, what is this for?" Yue Yanglou asked with some humility.

"Where have you been?" Gu Xiaochen raised his wine glass, the delicate and transparent polyhedron wine glass was filled with amber liquid, under the illumination of the light, the entire wine glass emitted a brilliant light, Yue Yanglou's eyes were attracted by it, and his eyes directly turned into a bright piece, he subconsciously blocked his eyes with his hand, so that it was more comfortable.

Seeing his uncomfortable appearance, Gu Xiaochen didn't let people turn off the lights, but stood up, walked to his side and asked again, "Where have you been?"

Yue Yanglou barely opened his eyes, and saw Gu Xiaochen's extremely cold face and the murderous eyes beside him, that's right, murderous, this is the first time he has seen murderous aura from such a polite person, he actually had a trace of fear in his heart, in the face of such an ordinary person, he would actually have fear as a Tianfan martial artist, which is also the biggest shock since he was born. "I... I went to find Xu Minghao. Yueyanglou didn't know if Gu Xiaochen had sent someone to follow him, but he didn't want to speak, so he did go to Xu Minghao.

"I seem to have told not to mess with him. Gu Xiaochen drank the remaining wine in the wine glass in one gulp, and then put it on the table next to him, his tone was very flat, and he couldn't see joy or anger, but it was prohibitive, and he even lost the courage to look up at him. The sweat on Yue Yanglou's back was already falling down, but he still said resolutely: "I don't trust him." ”

"Huh. Gu Xiaochen put his hands behind his back, turned around, and felt the huge heat transmitted by the headlamp in front of him and the brightness that made people unable to open their eyes, he gently tapped Yueyanglou's back with his fingers: "Those who don't listen to me don't have to stay by my side." ”

Yue Yanglou was startled, this didn't sound like what the usual gentle Gu Xiaochen would say, when he came back to his senses and looked back, Gu Xiaochen had disappeared, and the surprise in his heart was even more than before, how did he disappear quietly, and I haven't checked it at all? At this time, a strong man came from behind the headlights, his height and size were much larger than ordinary people, and his walking momentum was also very majestic, I saw him walk to Yueyang Tower, and without saying a word, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Yueyang Lou's neck. Yue Yanglou sneered: "What do you want to do? If you don't let go, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." ”

"Huh? Without thinking about it, the strong man slammed his hand hard, and Yue Yanglou's head turned one hundred and eighty degrees, and he was killed by the strong man without reacting at all. Gu Xiaochen sat in the dark and looked at this picture coldly, without a trace of fear, the fire in his eyes was terrifying, because it was a dark fire, which also meant that this was a fire of revenge.

Xu Minghao came to Immerse early, which was redecorated by Gu Xiaochen and turned into a tea room, saying that it was a tea room, but there was only one table in it, obviously not for business, but a place for him to go in the middle of the hustle and bustle. When Xu Minghao entered the door, he thought he had come to the wrong place, the table and chair and the picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix hanging on the wall, the same as in the clouds, Xu Minghao stood at the door, and a strange feeling came to his heart, making him a little afraid to enter. Gu Xiaochen heard the movement, looked at the door, and immediately stood up and greeted: "What are you doing there, come in and sit." ”

Xu Minghao walked to the table and touched it, this feeling... "I guess this didn't come out of nowhere. ”

"Good eyesight. Gu Xiaochen paused, then smiled and asked him to sit down: "Come, try this Pu'er, old cake, I have been dismantling it for several months, it should taste good." ”

Xu Minghao is used to drinking green tea, rarely drinking Pu'er, only to see that the tea soup brewed from this old tea is mellow and red, looking like a jewel, he put it to his mouth and smelled it, the quaint breath came to his nose, he couldn't help frowning: "This tea will not become moldy after being left for so long." ”

Gu Xiaochen choked on a sip of tea by his words: "Ahem, I have carefully preserved it, just drink it with confidence." ”

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm kidding you. Xu Minghao took a sip of the teacup, the tea soup was smooth and smooth, without any astringency, and after a sip, the sweetness of the aftertaste climbed from the throat to the head, that kind of taste was really rare, he couldn't help but look at it for a while, and then said to Gu Xiaochen: "This tea is really good." ”

"Listen to Yueyanglou, he came to you before?" Gu Xiaochen quickly turned to the topic, which caught Xu Minghao off guard, and just when he was thinking about how to hide it for Yueyanglou, Gu Xiaochen said again: "He didn't say anything that shouldn't be said, right?"

"Nope. Xu Minghao said with a smile, but his heart was empty, but he was thick-skinned, and he didn't show it: "Let's drink some wine and eat hot pot for a while." ”

"That's it, this person, I'm most afraid of chewing my tongue everywhere. Gu Xiaochen lowered his head and looked at the teacup and said something that did not match his usual image.

Xu Minghao immediately looked at him intently, is this still the Gu Xiaochen he knows, why is there a ruthlessness between his eyebrows, just when he was stunned, Gu Xiaochen got up and said: "You sit down first, I'll make dinner for you, let's not get drunk today." After speaking, he got up and came to the back kitchen, there was a door between the kitchen and the main hall, in order to prevent the smoke from coming to the front, Gu Xiaochen specially closed the door, and at this time there was only Xu Minghao alone in the entire front hall. He stood up boredly, his gaze fixed on the picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix directly above the wall. This painting was reframed by Gu Xiaochen, using fine rosewood. He looked at the painting while drinking tea with a teacup in his hand, the phoenix inside was very similar to the phoenix carved on the gold plate, had Gu Xiaochen's grandfather also been there? He specially looked at the phoenix's eyes a few more times, and there was a red dot in the middle of the honey-colored eyes, why was it a red dot? Xu Minghao took out his mobile phone with some puzzlement, and opened the gold plate picture, in the photo, there is a bump in the middle of the phoenix's eyes, which is also golden, and there is no trace of inlaid things, is this red dot the old man's magic stroke?

Gu Xiaochen was cooking in the kitchen, while watching the surveillance video, which happened to be put in Minghao and took out his mobile phone, he subconsciously magnified the multiple of the monitoring, but the mobile phone screen was just reflective and he couldn't see anything.

Just when Xu Minghao was looking at the painting intently, the kitchen door opened, and Gu Xiaochen came out with a plate of dishes: "I made a hard dish today - Buddha jumped over the wall." ”

As a senior foodie, Xu Minghao has been yearning for this dish for a long time, but he has been repelled by its price, this time he can taste the Buddha jumping over the wall made by Gu Xiaochen himself, he is almost excited, immediately put away his mobile phone, sat on the table, rubbed his hands, and licked his tongue. Gu Xiaochen couldn't cry or laugh when he saw it: "I said big brother, do you need to be like this, like you've been hungry for decades." ”

"It's not that your dish is too fragrant, my soul has been hooked. Speaking of this, he looked at Gu Xiaochen squeezily, and said with an ambiguous expression: "If I were a woman, I would have soaked you in my hands a long time ago, and then tied my waist." ”

Gu Xiaochen said angrily: "You still have a chance, just cut it." ”

"You... "Xu Minghao rarely eats deflated at Gu Xiaochen's place, but today he is really happy and willing to eat, after all, such a good dish can't be eaten on ordinary days, only in Gu Xiaochen can he feast on it. He eagerly picked up his chopsticks and devoured them.

Gu Xiaochen looked at him with chopsticks and said, "What eyebrows can you see in this painting?"

"I didn't see anything. Xu Minghao buried his head in hard work, and his speech was slurred: "Do you see what's coming?"

"This painting was painted by my grandfather's grandfather Gu Zhanyan, although it was to celebrate the founding of the motherland, but in my opinion, there is another hidden meaning in it. Gu Xiaochen put down his chopsticks, picked up the wine glass and stood up, looking at the painting attentively, looking at his distracted appearance, as if he had returned to the era when the war was raging and the people were struggling to make a living, and even his face was shrouded in a vicissitudes of life. Xu Minghao's chewing speed in his mouth also slowed down, and he looked at him in a daze.

"My grandfather must have found something and hid the clue to it in the painting. You see, the color of the whole painting is dull, obviously after so many years of wind and rain, the extent of the damage to the painting can be seen, but the eyes of this phoenix. These words immediately hit what Xu Minghao was thinking just now, and the problem was in this eye.

"Look at the blood-red eyes of this eye, and the color does not fade away. Gu Xiaochen reached out and touched his eyes as he spoke, and the frosted texture was incompatible with the whole painting.

"That... Then do you understand, what do these eyes represent?" Xu Minghao began to babble nonsense again: "Will it represent the new China that we have fought hard for blood and exchanged for blood?"

"No, it won't. Gu Xiaochen shook his head very resolutely: "I can't figure it out." ”

"Alright, don't think about it, let's eat. Xu Minghao hurriedly beckoned him to come over to eat, otherwise he would eat all the dishes on this table. In fact, his real intention in his heart was not to let Gu Xiaochen get too involved in this matter, because this painting was related to treasures, and if he pursued it, it would definitely bring him danger.

This time, Gu Xiaochen listened to him, returned to the table, and chatted with him while drinking a glass of wine, among which the topic he talked about the most was Ma Yuwen. "Heheda, you have to pull a thread between me and Ma Yuwen's sister. ”

Xu Minghao was overwhelmed by alcohol, and was already a little dizzy: "What's the matter, don't you have a woman, and you still think about the eldest lady?"

"I've always missed her. Gu Xiaochen thought of Ma Yuwen, his whole heart was itching, he had never wanted to occupy a woman so much, just as he was about to listen to Xu Minghao's reply, there was a click, and Xu Minghao fell asleep directly on the table. Gu Xiaochen hurriedly took a bowl of decanting soup from the kitchen and drank it all, and then returned to the front hall, when Xu Minghao was already snoring. "Don't blame me. Gu Xiaochen went straight to Xu Minghao's pocket, and then found his mobile phone and a small note from inside, he picked up the small note and looked at it twice, although there was nothing on it, but he felt that this small note was a little different, so he subconsciously stuffed it into his pocket. Then he picked up his mobile phone and looked at it, when he saw the picture of the gold plate, he was shocked, and then immediately sent the picture to himself, and at the same time cleared the traces of sending, and then he stuffed the mobile phone and the small note he cut back into Xu Minghao's pocket. Then pretended to sit aside as if nothing had happened and continued to eat the food, the wine he prepared for Xu Minghao today was a specially blended puree wine with a super high degree, ordinary people may have fainted long ago after one or two glasses, Xu Minghao is also a martial artist, and it is a miracle that he even drank so many cups before he fell. Gu Xiaochen ate for a while, and saw that Xu Minghao was still unconscious, so he pushed him, but unexpectedly, a huge force came from his body, and it bounced him away. Xu Minghao also woke up, he saw Gu Xiaochen fall to the ground with a painful face, and hurriedly ran over to support him: "Xiaochen, you... What's going on?"

"You... Gu Xiaochen rubbed his ass and pointed at Xu Minghao and said, "I just pushed you gently, why did you push me away so hard?"

Xu Minghao looked at him a little bewildered: "I was just drunk, I didn't feel anything, it should be my body protection true qi that pushed you away." ”

Gu Xiaochen stood up speechlessly, Xu Minghao patted the ashes on his body for him, and then rubbed his head and said, "Don't say it, you really have enough energy to drink today, I actually fainted from drinking." ”

"Are you okay?" Gu Xiaochen saw that his face was flushed, and he didn't know if he was unwell or what, he was worried for a while if he would drink him badly with this wine.

Xu Minghao shook his head, then glanced at the time, and suddenly shouted: "Oops, it's so late, I have to go back." Let's get back together. After saying that, he didn't say a word and ran out of the door. Gu Xiaochen was left alone and looked at him in surprise.

Xu Minghao was actually not drunk, he didn't understand what Gu Xiaochen was looking for him to do today, but after what happened just now, he already understood it thoroughly, he was using his own words, and wanted to find out the secret of the painting from his mouth, but he didn't expect that he didn't know, and then he must have seen himself take out his mobile phone to compare, so he got drunk, took his mobile phone, and at the same time took the small note. Fortunately, there was no handwriting on the small note, and he was not worried, but he copied the photo of the gold plate, and he didn't know if he would find Zumu Village. Xu Minghao thought about it for a while and felt that it was necessary to talk to Xu Youhui about this, so he immediately cast a ghost trail and ran home. When he got home, he immediately called Xu Youhui: "Brother Xu, the photos I took were seen, pay more attention to your side." ”

"I see. Xu Youhui has no energy during the day these days, can't sleep at night, and thinks about this gold plate, he doesn't say anything about this matter for a day, it is a big knot, and now Xu Minghao said that the photo was seen, which is undoubtedly a heavy pressure on him.

"Brother Xu, if you can't cope with it alone, I still have someone to get rid of. Xu Minghao heard Xu Youhui's weak tone, and thought to himself that this Brother Xu must be worried about this matter that there is no one to complain about, it is better to have more people and more helpers.

"Who?" Xu Youhui perked up, and Xu Minghao guessed all his troubles.

"Officer Bai Yibai. ”

Xu Minghao hung up the phone and called Bai Yi, who was eating snacks and watching TV, saw that it was Xu Minghao's phone, her head immediately hurt, she took the mobile phone and walked to the room, and then put it on Xu Bingqing's bed: "Your good friend also took the initiative to call." ”

"Pick it up!" Xu Bingqing put down his meditating posture with excitement on his face, and looked at the three words Xu Minghao on the mobile phone screen and laughed involuntarily. Bai Yi had goosebumps all over his body and pressed the answer button vertically: "Hey, Master Xu, which gust of wind blew you here." ”

"Don't be poor, I'll get down to business. Xu Minghao rarely showed a serious appearance as soon as he came up, which made the two girls a little difficult to adapt: "We actually found some things in Zumu Village, but I want to wait for Long Jiu to be brought to justice before confessing to my superiors." You know what I mean, no. ”

Bai Yi put away her smile, she had some understanding of his arrangement: "Are you saying that what you found has something to do with Long Jiu, and you are keeping silent now just to prevent others from discovering this thing, that is, protecting this thing in disguise?"

"That's right. Xu Minghao continued with great righteousness: "This is a major event related to the honor and disgrace of the country, and I hope you can help us." ”
