Yu Yao is usually not small, but who can stand this kind of thing? He didn't dare to act rashly, so he could only keep muttering, asking the blessings of the various Divine Immortals and Buddhas he could remember.

Fortunately, the golden light did not last long, and at the same time, no sound sounded.

Darkness returned to sight.

After another five minutes of silence, Yu Yao slowly opened his eyes.

Look left, right, up, down.

A hook of the first quarter moon hangs in the air, intertwined with the dim street lights, and obliquely shines on the plaque of "Gegu Zhai"; no one passes by on the old street for the time being, and there are constantly vehicles whistling past on the riverside road connected by the east exit.

The pile of ashes on the ground has lost half of its anger, and the grimace in his hand has not changed much.

Phew······ Yu Yao let out a sigh of relief.

At least there is nothing wrong with the eyes, and they can see clearly.

Could it be that I was dazzled just now? Auditory hallucinations?

Yu Yao slowly stood up, first carefully put the grimace money in his pocket temporarily, and then lit a cigarette.

Xu has been a little tired lately, dreaming and hallucinating.

However, until a cigarette is smoked, this self-soothing does not have much effect. After Yu Yao returned to the store and locked the door, he still felt a chill on his spine.

Walking to the basin stand in the corner of the store, Yu Yao rubbed his temples after washing his hands and drying them, "Let's sleep quietly for a while." ”

There was only him in the store, and there was no silence. However, there was an extra rolled-up newspaper on the counter.

It seems to have been left behind by the middle-aged man.

Yu Yao picked it up and unfolded it.

What kind of newspaper is this? It doesn't even have a big color picture on the front page.

Hmmm? No, black and white? This ink?

Minsheng Lianbao.

October 26, the 27th year of the Republic of China, the fourth day of the ninth lunar month.

Yu Yao hastily read a few front-page news, all of which were current events of the year. Flip again, still.

Inadvertently, a news headline suddenly came into view.

A generation of grandmasters passed away mysteriously yesterday, and the national treasure-level cultural relics are missing.

Next to it, there is also a photo.

Looking at the photo, Yu Yao's hand seemed to be burned by fire, and he threw the newspaper out of the land!

This photo, although it is a small black and white photo, is not comparable to today's high-definition pictures, but Yu Yao can also recognize that it is the middle-aged man who entered the store just now!

This is really a ghost!

I said, how can you still dress like this all these days!

Also, the newspaper was issued on the fourth day of the ninth lunar month, and the "yesterday" mentioned in the newspaper was the third day of the ninth lunar month!

Today is also the third day of September!

Anniversary.

Pity the third night of the first month of September, the dew is like a real pearl and the moon is like a bow. What a beautiful day this should have been, why did this happen to me?!

Ghost master, I have nothing to do with you, why did you find me?

Yu Yao stood by the counter, looking at the newspaper he threw on the ground, he was now shocked and scared.

However, there is also a little curiosity.

A generation of grandmasters?

Who the hell is this person? I didn't even bother to look at it just now······

In the end, Yu Yao gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, forcing himself to step forward and pick up the newspaper and put it back on the counter.

Now that they have come to the door, it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided!

"Folk generation legend, antique cultural relics appraisal master Xu Taiyan ······"

It turns out that he is Xu Taiyan?

Yu Yao was a little disengaged for a while.

As an antique vendor whose theoretical level and historical knowledge are far higher than his eyesight, Yu Yao knows this Xu Taiyan.

During the Republic of China, there was a saying that "three words of cultural relics, half of the country", which was about the influence of cultural relics and antiques in the circle.

The so-called "three words" are people whose three surnames are next to the words.

Xu Taiyan, Xie Liuzhai, Tan Rusu.

However, these three people are not all the way.

Xu Taiyan is the most legendary, and he is a genius in the identification of cultural relics and antiques. He once opened a shop in Liulichang, which was quite popular in the industry at that time, and had the nickname of "Xu Yiyan", whether it was true or not, qualitative at a glance. But his background is very mysterious, and he is said to be well-connected, but he never does anything for the government.

Xie Liuzhai is an antique dealer specializing in "exporting" cultural relics, he opened an antique company in Shanghai, and also has a company in the West.

Tan Rusu was at the helm of the largest antique counterfeiting group at that time, mainly ancient paintings, bronzes and porcelain, many of which were super high imitations of fake and real. To put it mildly, there may be something made by the Tan Group in any collector or even in any museum.

"My surname is Xu. ”

The voice sounded in Yu Yao's mind again.

Yu Yao's heart seemed to be a little more steady.

Because, if it is really Xu Taiyan, this "ghost" is extraordinary, a generation of grandmasters! It shouldn't be difficult for such a small person to be himself, right?

Yu Yao thought about it as he finished reading the news, which was only less than four hundred words.

The news when he dared to love the Republic of China also played the headline party, writing that Xu Taiyan died, but the cause of death was not known, which is bizarre? Yu Yao also wanted to see what the national treasure-level cultural relics were, but he only guessed that Xu Taiyan should have national treasure-level cultural relics. However, I was suspicious of the Japanese people. At that time, the Japanese had already invaded China, and at the same time looted antiques and cultural relics.

Not much useful, but one of them still caught Yu Yao's attention.

That is, Xu Taiyan had a shop in Liulichang back then, also called "Gegu Zhai"!

Does this seem to explain the reason for his "apparition"?

Could it be that his old man is short of money "below"?

Yu Yao recalled the whole process again, he didn't seem to have malicious intent, and he helped him burn the paper money, a full five dollars, this has to be put "underneath", enough to buy a garden villa, right?

In that case, there shouldn't be any more trouble?

The golden light in the eyes of money, if it is not an illusion, could it be a kind of "feedback" indicating the receipt of money?

After thinking about it for a while, Yu Yao took out the grimace and spent money again.

I don't dare to sell this thing!

Finding a red lanyard from the store, Yu Yao carefully tied the grimace money to wear, and then opened the small safe in the corner of the counter.

In the small safe, there was nothing left, except for a few thousand dollars in cash, and a small brocade box.

Yu Yao carefully put the grimace on the red rope into it, and bowed his hand, "Master Xu, the name of the shop is a coincidence, and I have no intention of offending you." I also burned this paper money, enough for you to spend below. You see, don't you have to come up? The main reason is that you are tired ······."

After finishing speaking, Yu Yao patted his heart and felt a little soothed.

Glancing at the brocade box in the safe, Yu Yao couldn't help but take it out again.

In this brocade box, there is a white jade wrench that he missed two days ago, whether he can have a good year this year depends on it!

After opening the brocade box, Yu Yao couldn't help but pick up the wrench.

The pulp is moist, the feel is first-class, and the door is opened. On the façade of the wrench, there are back lines engraved up and down, and a Tang poem is engraved in the middle: the desert sand is like snow, and the moon of Yanshan is like a hook. How to be a golden brain, walk quickly and step on Qingqiu.

According to Yu Yao's previous judgment, this is an old jade piece of Su Gong in the Qianlong Dynasty, although it is not as good as the official work of the Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but it is also considered a fine product.

But at this time, Yu Yao's brows suddenly twisted into a pimple.
