Yu Yao noticed that his expression was different, but he didn't ask directly, and after putting away the "ghost eyes piercing the heart", he lit a cigarette and soothed it.

"Sit down. Cai Pengxi stretched out his hand and signaled.

After Yu Yao sat down, Cai Pengxi also lit a cigarette, but began to start from the beginning.

"Family teacher Lang Gong Xiankun, ancestral home in Suzhou, entered Beijing with his father when he was a child, and his father was a jade carver. When I met him, it was in 1948, when I was only seven years old, and he was already over half ······a hundred years old."

Cai Pengxi's parents died early, he grew up with a lonely aunt, lived in a large miscellaneous yard, and knew how to pick up waste to supplement the family at a young age.

Once, Cai Pengxi accidentally picked up a small jade piece on the side of the road. This is a white jade cloud head pattern of the Liao Dynasty, of course Cai Pengxi didn't know it at the time, but he thought it was very good-looking, so he felt that it was not an ordinary thing, and he was afraid that the owner would not be able to find it when he came back, so he stood on the side of the road and waited for the owner.

The first wait is most of the day.

The last owner to wait for was Lang Xiankun.

Lang Xiankun saw that the child was honest and clever, and after this incident, he always helped him.

A few months later, Cai Pengxi's aunt died of illness, and Lang Xiankun directly took Cai Pengxi to his residence to raise him, and began to teach him to read and write.

Cai Pengxi was not called by this name at the time, he knew that his father's surname was Cai, but he only had a nickname, called Xizi.

Lang Xiankun gave him the current name according to the homonym. Lang Xiankun is proficient in jade, and especially likes things like seals. This name also pinned Lang Xiankun's hope, and after Cai Pengxi was able to read through the article, he began to teach him the knowledge of jade.

Lang Xiankun originally had an only daughter, but in 1949 he followed the officer's husband to Taiwan and has not been heard from since. Lang Xiankun and his wife regarded Cai Pengxi as their own, making him from an orphan to a versatile teenager who was proficient in antiques. Naturally, the best thing is jade.

When Cai Pengxi was fourteen years old, he knelt three times and bowed nine times to Lang Xiankun and officially apprenticed. However, at that time, the emphasis was placed on breaking the feudal dross, and the apprenticeship was carried out secretly at home.

After another four years, he was eighteen years old, and after graduating from high school, he was admitted to the School of Geology.

After graduating, Cai Pengxi went to work in the geology and mining department. At this time, Lang Xiankun's wife had died, and Lang Xiankun was getting old, but he did not interfere with Cai Pengxi and developed freely with him; besides, no one was in the antique business at that time.

But as long as Cai Pengxi is alone with him, he always mentions his face, so that Cai Pengxi must not lose his eyesight on antiques.

After working for a few years, there was a weekend when the master and apprentice, who were like father and son, had a long conversation at home.

Lang Xiankun told Cai Pengxi the beginning and end of the ghost eye door and the situation of each character, as well as his identity, and asked him if he would like to become the successor of the earth word mouth.

"To be honest, with the education I received all the way to school, and the general environment at that time, I was a little repulsive to these things. I also work in the government department, so I was a little hesitant. Speaking of this, Cai Pengxi sighed.

Lang Xiankun saw that Cai Pengxi couldn't make up his mind, so he didn't force it, he took out the "ghost eye through the soil" and showed it to Cai Pengxi, and then talked about the characteristics of each grimace and the corresponding incisions, and finally told Cai Pengxi that his consideration time could be extended to before he breathed.

"The family teacher said that if after his death, I still don't want to take over the 'ghost eye piercing the soil', then find a successor for him who has both ability and integrity. This 'Ghost Eye Piercing Soil' must be passed on, not only to leave a legacy for the Ghost Eye Gate, but most importantly, there is a huge secret hidden in it!"

Yu Yao thought to himself, this secret is naturally the heavy weapon secret of the Ghost Eye Gate. It's just that Yu Yao didn't expect that Cai Pengxi was not the same as other heirs, and it seemed to be very tortuous.

"After another six months, I was sent to a mine in the frontier to assist in the work. I have been gone for more than a year, and when I first came back, my tutor had already passed away for five days. ”

Speaking of this, Cai Pengxi was in tears.

At that time, I don't know who reported that Lang Xiankun secretly hid a seal of the Empress Dowager Cixi, and a group of half-grown teenagers rushed into the house, but they couldn't find it, but they "denounced" Lang Xiankun.

And it's not a one-time thing, I will go every three or five times. Lang Xiankun's collection of things was naturally hidden a long time ago; they couldn't find it, but they kept picking up all kinds of "black history", and the methods of treating Lang Xiankun were also upgraded again and again.

Finally, Lang Xiankun was humiliated and committed suicide by hanging the beam.

"At your age, it's probably not easy to understand what it was like. Cai Pengxi said as he took out a handkerchief to wipe away his tears.

"Of course it's impossible to experience it in person, but I also know something, didn't Mr. Lao She also jump into the lake?"

Cai Pengxi nodded, "I don't want to mention those things in those years." By the time I returned, my tutor had already been helped by a distant relative. I know where he hid things, but the jade that he was wearing with him was gone······!

Hearing this, Yu Yao hurriedly asked, "Didn't he also carry the 'ghost eye piercing the soil'?

"At first, I thought so, but after I quietly checked, there were indeed a lot of jade and antiques, but inside, there was no 'ghost eye piercing the soil'. ”

Yu Yao couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, "Missing?"

Cai Pengxi seemed to be a little thirsty, so he didn't answer immediately, he directly picked up the mineral water bottle and took a sip, "It's not that serious, you listen to me." Later, a neighbor told me quietly that the tutor had left him a few words for him to tell me. ”

Yu Yao also took a sip of water and listened quietly.

"The tutor said that if I came back, I would go to a village near Xiaoqingliang Mountain in the western suburbs and find someone. I went later, and found it, and he handed over an object, a standard portrait of a great man, framed in plain lacquered wood. ”

"In the frame?" Yu Yao understood.

Originally, Lang Xiankun carried "ghost eyes through the soil" with him, and he did not hide it with other antiques. Later, something happened suddenly, so I thought of such a way to ensure that it would not be discovered and destroyed.

"Yes. Cai Pengxi's eyes were blank, "Before I gave my teacher a five-seven grave, I resigned from my original unit." On the day of the 57th grave, I took this 'Ghost Eye Piercing Soil' and said to 'him' in front of the grave that I would officially take over the 'Ghost Eye Piercing Soil' and become the heir of the Ghost Eye Gate Soil Mouth!"

"I see!" Yu Yao let out a sigh of relief, but then, he was puzzled.

Since Cai Pengxi took over the "Ghost Eyes Piercing the Soil" and did not lose it, why didn't he take out the "Ghost Eyes Piercing the Heart" when he took out the "Ghost Eyes Piercing the Heart"? And his expression was weird?
