Chapter 17: Treasure Hunting

The biggest feature of the night market is that there are more people at night than during the day, and this night market on Yunxiao Street is no exception.

When the flickering neon signs and billboards are turned off, the crowds are gone, and the time shifts from night to day, and the mysterious feeling of the night market is quickly lost by being exposed to the sun. Yesterday I thought it was a very novel place, but at this time it feels a little boring.

If it weren't for the tempting food promotional pictures on both sides of the street that made people secretly saliva in their mouths when they saw it, and the aroma of food that still remained in the air, Chu Sheng would have doubted whether Fangfang had brought himself to the right place.

It has to be said that the existence of urban sanitation workers is indeed a very important and indispensable part, and the garbage that was discarded by vendors and tourists yesterday has now been cleaned.

Seeing that there was no one around, Fang Fang put Chu Sheng on the ground and let him move freely.

"Tangerine, go play by yourself, it's on this street, don't go into the alley. ”

"Finally you can hunt for treasure~"

Chu Sheng, who had been freed, happily responded with a cat meow, and set off with light small steps.

On a brand new morning in the vigorous spring, on the Yunxiao Street, where simplicity and innovation are superimposed, a young orange cat relies on its sharp eyes, keen sense of smell, excellent insight, and is not afraid of unknown dangers, and resolutely embarks on the road of treasure hunting, what a great feat it should be!

Of course, this is just Chu Sheng's fantasy, in fact, treasure hunting is unlikely, because he only forgot one thing, this street has been cleaned, even if there is something hidden, it must be very secret.

"It's a disappointment, it's too disappointing....."

After turning around, Chu Sheng ran back a little depressed with the only coin in his mouth. He wanted to show off in front of Fangfang, but who would have thought that after such a circle, he only found this one-yuan coin.

If it weren't for the fact that the angle of the sunlight happened to shine on the coin at that time, Chu Sheng happened to pass by the two slightly shorter bluestones, and even this coin that fell between the two bluestones, Chu Sheng might not have found it.

found the coin, and had to find a way to take it out, this process was also very troublesome for Chu Sheng. After all, Chu Sheng is a cat and can't use tools with his paws, for this reason, Chu Sheng can only use his own claws to try to reach into the gap and hook up, the coin is round, and the gap is relatively narrow, and the process is quite troublesome, which also leads to the current Chu Sheng's right front paw has a hair that has been worn bald.

Returning to the separate place, Chu Sheng saw that Fang Fang was sitting on the curb, which was not too tall, and he could reach her thighs if he straightened up slightly, so he didn't make a sound to disturb, but leaned back and slowly pulled with his hind legs and front paws, and began to drill under Fang Fang's elbows. Fang Fang had already noticed that her orange had returned, so she raised her elbow a little so that it could climb up.

Chu Sheng got in front of Fang Fang, let go of his mouth, and threw the coin on Fang Fang's lap.

Fang Fang picked up the coin and took a tissue from her bag to wipe the dirt and stains off it. It is a one-dollar coin engraved with a peony flower, and the date on it shows the year 2000.

"You little guy, your eyes are really sharp, I picked up the ring yesterday, I picked up the coin today, and I don't think it's strange to pick up a big ingot one day~ Since you found the orange, I'll help you write it down and save it, maybe it will be a fortune in the future, and it will be used to buy you cat food when the time comes~"

As soon as Fangfang's words came out, Chu Sheng's eyes lit up, this is a good idea, it seems that he will have to be more attentive in the future, maybe one day he will pick up a big wallet, and this small vault will not be able to ring for half a day~

When Chu Sheng was still immersed in a sweet dream, there was a sound in the direction of the entrance of the street.

Chu Sheng leaned out on Fang Fang's lap and looked in the direction of the street.

It was two spirited young men, with two long sticks in their hands, half-bent over the corner of the street.

Because it was a few hundred meters away, Chu Sheng couldn't see clearly, so he couldn't tell what it was, but Chu Sheng still heard the dripping sound on the long stick from time to time. Moreover, every time there was a sound from the long stick, the two young men would crouch down, not knowing what they were doing.

At first, Chu Sheng didn't figure out what it was, but when the two young men got a little closer and could see it clearly, Chu Sheng was screaming in his heart. It turned out that the things in the hands of those two people turned out to be two simple metal detectors, and the drop was the reminder sound that the instrument had found metal buried underground.

In addition to metal detectors, the two young men also have two other magic weapons, that is, a powerful magnet and a slender pair of tweezers. If it is an iron object in the gap, it can be solved directly with a strong magnet, and if it cannot be sucked up, they use tweezers to rummage carefully.

With these three things in their hands, the speed of those two young men to find them was simply not too fast, and Chu Sheng's previous efficiency could not be compared at all. Moreover, the accuracy of the metal detector is simply unbelievable, as long as it rings, it is sure to find something metallic.

Chu Sheng lay on Fangfang's knees with his front paws in a daze, and half-opened his cat mouth in shock, he was stupid: "I'm taking the test, it's really fucking awesome, I only have this idea, and my peers have thought of it together, and everyone has brought it directly." Sure enough, the biggest difference between humans and animals is the creation and use of tools..... Isn't this a cat back road! You don't go to work and come to steal some business from cats!"

Chu Sheng's abnormal reaction naturally attracted Fang Fang's attention, and she also spotted these two young men who were behaving strangely. However, she didn't associate them with the iron ring on her hand. After all, these two people don't look like they're looking for something lost, they're more like they're here to hunt for treasure. Moreover, with such a population in China, there are many people who have strange ideas, and since others do not interfere with them, Fangfang pretends not to see it and continues to play with her mobile phone, so as to avoid unnecessary embarrassment on both sides.

The two young men also had the same idea as Fang Fang, and directly pretended not to see it, and went straight in front of Fang Fang and Chu Sheng.

Unconsciously, Fang Fang had been waiting here for more than two hours, during this period, except for the two young people who looked like they were hunting for treasure and a few travelers who looked like they were playing, Fang Fang didn't see anyone in a hurry to find things.

Because it came early in the morning, the temperature was still cold, so Fangfang chose a place with the sun to warm up. But as the sun rose, the temperature changed rapidly, and the place that was comfortable before now made Fangfang feel panicked.

Stretching her waist and putting down her phone again, Fang Fang hugged Chu Sheng and moved her body to the shadows.

Looking at the very empty street, Fangfang couldn't help but muttered in her heart, no one has come to look for it for so long, either she hasn't found it or she doesn't plan to ask for it.
