Chapter 10: Temptation

Dong Xiaowei knew what I wanted to do, and his face turned pale with fright: "Wang Huan, don't do stupid things, if you don't get it, you will go to jail." ”

I said calmly, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to me." ”

"No......" Dong Xiaowei wanted to come over and pull me, but I slid in front of her fingertips in a flash, and ran out of the yard in a few steps: "Don't follow me, take care of yourself." ”

From the moment I took the iron sword, I had already made up my mind. It is better to fight with your fists if you can't discuss something than to let the antique shop owner take advantage of the fire to rob it.

No matter how much Dong Xiaowei calls me, it is impossible for me to turn back.

I could hear that Dong Xiaowei wanted to come out to chase me, but she didn't dare to go out of the courtyard gate, and she cried when she chased after the door, but I ran out of the street without stopping.

It was just after dark when I went out, and the streets were still full of people, so I pretended to be wandering around the street, but I was actually observing the cameras on the street. In this era of "Sky Eye", it is very unlikely that you want to commit a crime on the commercial street. I walked around the antique shop twice before casually walking in through the gate: "Boss, let's meet again." ”

The boss smiled and said, "Little brother, come and sit, come and sit." I knew that my little brother was a smart man. Money and wealth are all things outside the body, what is there that you can't give up, it's important to save your life, right?

I looked at the boss calmly and said, "Foxling, I brought it, but it's not in my hands, but in your house." ”

The boss's face changed: "What do you mean?"

I smiled and said, "That pair of foxbells is bloodstained, and now I just need to call the police and you can't run away." Isn't it time for us to talk about it in a different tone?"

"You lied to me!" the boss stood up with his hand on the table, "You are a fool to be a policeman, they will believe whatever you say?"

I shook my phone and said, "You can try it!"

From the moment my boss stood up, I knew I was right. There must be something in his store that shouldn't be there, and once the police come, he will definitely not be able to escape, so he doesn't dare to bet with me.

The boss looked fierce: "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out of Chengjiang?"

I smiled faintly and said, "I didn't plan to leave, it's a big deal, let's enter the bureau together." I've heard that there is a gathering of righteousness in the public prison to suppress evil spirits, and it may be safer for me to live in it for a year and a half, are you right?"

"You ......" The boss obviously didn't expect me to come to such a hand, and his face changed several times before he said, "Little brother, we are all from the rivers and lakes, why bother with you to the death? As the saying goes: many friends and many roads." Wouldn't it be nice for us to make friends?"

I straightened up: "I want to make friends with my boss too." As long as the boss is sincere, after I leave Yuxi, I will be grateful. ”

The boss sat down and poured me tea again: "Let's put it this way! Many people think that the ghost-faced shark of Fuxian Lake is the god of the lake, but I don't think so." When I was fishing for goods in Fuxian Lake with a few friends, I once encountered the shark king......"

I interrupted the other person and said, "You wait a minute. As far as I know, Fuxian Lake is the largest plateau deep-water lake in China, with the deepest point exceeding 150 meters. How did you get down?"

The boss smiled: "If you want to go down, there is naturally a way." You don't have to inquire about this. ”

It seems that this boss is a repeat offender, and their methods naturally won't tell me. I nodded and said, "You go on." ”

The boss continued: "At that time, our brother didn't want to enter the center of Fuxian Lake Ancient City, but only planned to find some dry goods around. Who would have thought that the ghost-faced shark rushed out from under Fuxian Lake and broke three or four of us brothers on the spot. ”

"A few of us had no choice but to desperately hide in the ancient city of Fuxian Lake. Later, we broke into an underwater temple, and the ghost-faced shark didn't dare to come in, and kept circling outside. You say, will the ghost-faced shark be the god of the lake?"

I couldn't help but nod. Judging from the process of encountering the ghost-faced shark, it should be just a fish. Animals have an instinct to perceive danger, and the more powerful the animal, the more so, and the place that can make the ghost-faced shark dare not approach must be a deadly threat to it.

I looked at the boss and said, "So how did you get out?"

The boss continued: "At that time, a few of us were scared to death. We are not only afraid of the ghost-faced shark rushing in, but also of the temple. There must be something in that temple, and although none of us saw what it was, we all clearly felt that something lurked in the temple. ”

"I lit up in the temple for a long time with a flashlight, and I didn't see anything but the heavy weapon. I suspected that the ghost shark was afraid of the heavy weapon, so I wanted to see if I could push it out and scare the ghost shark away. ”

I just reached out and pushed it, and the weight was split into four parts. I took the middle section because it was the smallest thing. I didn't think I would survive, so I took a gamble and swam out of the temple with that heavy weapon. Who would have thought that the ghost-faced shark was really afraid of that heavy weapon, so I took it and swam past the ghost-faced shark, so I escaped. ”

When the boss said this, he stopped to take a sip of tea: "After I came out, I waited for my companion by the water, and finally two more people came up, and they also carried a heavy weapon. I guess the bottom layer of the thing was too heavy for anyone to handle, so only two people came out. ”

I stared at the boss and said, "How many people are hiding in the ancient temple?"

"Six. The boss's face unconsciously showed a trace of bitterness. Although he didn't say it explicitly, I could see that the other three people probably died not in the belly of the fish, but at the hands of their companions.

The boss continued: "After our three friends came out of the water, they also had a falling out, and each of us went our separate ways with a heavy weapon. I reckon that if you can get all three of your weapons together, you might be able to find the secret of the lake god. ”

I stared at the boss for a while before I said slowly, "What do you mean by letting me take away three swords?"

The boss said, "There is a sword, and I don't dare to come in if I grab your things." If you walk around this street, as long as there is a sword hanging on the wall, there must be something fished out of Fuxian Lake hidden in your home. ”

I roughly recalled that during the day, I had walked all the way and seen at least three shops with ancient swords hanging from them. But the hilt of the sword is completely different from the ones my boss gave me, which is why I didn't pay attention to those ancient swords.

I said lightly: "I'm afraid the boss is joking, right? Who dares to hang out the things in Fuxian Lake, isn't it waiting for the police to come to the door?"

The boss waved his hand and said, "Those things are afraid of ancient swords, but they don't necessarily have to be things in Fuxian Lake." In ancient times, the blades of divine weapons were fine, especially those who had killed people. ”

My face turned cold and said, "Then what do you mean by giving me three swords from Fuxian Lake?"

"Ahem...... That's just trying to scare you a little bit more and get you to get things out quickly. The boss was embarrassed and immediately said, "Little brother, don't worry, I'll get you a good knife right away, and you can take it back before the time to ensure that nothing will happen." You're waiting......"

The boss quickly pulled out a long knife from under the table: "This is the imperial treasure knife of Lord Qianlong, little brother palm eyes!"

After I pulled the leather scabbard out of the scabbard halfway, the cold air suddenly rushed out from the knife, and the cold light bursting out of the knife made me can't help but close my eyes slightly.

I put the treasure knife back in its scabbard and put it on the table: "I admit that this is an ancient knife, but it is definitely not the Qianlong Imperial System." The boss doesn't have to procrastinate, it's better to be straightforward. ”

According to legend, Emperor Qianlong once specially manufactured four batches of treasure knives, the number of about 300, until the twelfth year of Qianlong was completed, and the blades all had the "Qianlong Imperial System" inscription.

The Qianlong treasure knife is extremely luxurious, and white jade handles and gold-cut gauntlets are not uncommon. The knife in my hand, the style is the Qing Dynasty sabre, the blade is narrow and long, the front section is warped, equipped with a blood groove, but the inscription is not "imperial system", but "imperial gift"; the decoration on the scabbard is relatively plain, the handle is slightly longer, you can hold the knife with both hands, the design of the whole knife is not inclined to decoration and wearing, more inclined to actual combat. This is certainly not Qianlong's saber.

The boss stiffened his face and said, "Little brother, this is not right. Let me tell you the truth, this knife was given by Emperor Qianlong to the general of the Burma Expedition. If it weren't for the pleasing eyes of the little brother, what if I wouldn't have taken it out?"

I smiled a little: "Boss is afraid that someone will be cleaning up something in the back, right?"

From the moment I came in, the boss said that he was half hiding and half hiding, and everything was about the process, not the idea. Now that he has taken out such a treasure knife, what is it that he is not deliberately paralyzing me?

If I am happy with this treasure knife and he leads it astray, and I talk to him for a while, maybe he will be able to let people get out all the things hidden behind.

I tapped a few times on my phone as I spoke, and my boss saw me click the fast dial button, and his face changed suddenly. He didn't know that I was calling Dong Xiaowei, and it was impossible for anyone to answer it, so he thought I was informing my companions outside, so he hurriedly said: "Little brother, what are you doing here? Aren't you kind enough to treat it as a donkey's liver and lungs? I've been telling you for so long, isn't it just to make you believe that I'm not fooling you? Look at it, you ...... person."

I smiled, but looked at my boss without saying a word. The latter saw that I was silent, and couldn't help but say with a little annoyance: "Okay, little brother, I know you don't believe me, I'll go back and take out that heavy weapon now, I'll tell you little by little, and you'll know what's going on." ”

I put down the phone, picked up the tea cup on the table, and took a sip: "Okay, I'll wait for you." ”

The boss turned around and walked behind the antique shop, but he didn't come back for a long time.
