"Ghost City" V second chapter

The sea and I quickly ran to Lixia and the old man.

The old man knelt on the ground and held his head, his expression extremely painful.

The jade pendant was hanging under the old man at this time, and it was indeed a fish-shaped jade pendant carved in the shadow.

"What the hell is going on here?" the sea was the first to cry out.

According to what the old man said, the old man also lost. Lixia followed.

I don't know what Rixia understood, my current situation is no different from the sea. Confused and overwhelmed.

I nudged Lixia and said, "What the hell is going on?"

Lixia pointed at the old man and said, "According to what he said about Pisces Jade Pei, he is just a doppelganger. ”

"A doppelganger, not a living person?" I said.

"I'm not sure if he's alive or not, but the reason why he's still alive is because of this jade pendant. Lixia said.

The old man raised his head and looked at Lixia and said, "I'm already dead?"

"Whether you die or not, only you know. Lixia said.

"Myself, I don't know anything. My memory is gone. The old man said.

"Your memory is gone, I guess it's been half a year. From the moment my grandfather put your avatar in the watch, your memory is gone. You're just a copy of you, so you become dementia. Lixia said.

"Nonsense. I got the jade pendant. I'll get your watch right away, it's all mine. The old man shouted.

"It's easy to prove this, you take off your necklace yourself. If you don't turn to ashes, then you are. If you turn to ashes, then these are real treasures. It can also prove that what you said before is true. Lixia said.

"Wait, what did you just mention?Liby put my avatar in the watch?" said the old man in surprise.

"Wait, what and what is all this?" said the sea, puzzled.

"If I'm thinking right. Last year, he and my grandfather divided the jade pendant and the watch. When my grandfather went back, he hung his portrait on the watch in a fit of rage, and the watch killed the entire album. He's not dead because he's just a doppelganger?" I said.

"So he's a dead man?" said the sea.

"Take off his necklace and everything will be clear. Lixia said.

"I could never be a dead man. The old man said.

"Then you take off your necklace. Lixia said.

The old man stood hesitantly in front of us, his expression a little demented again.

"I don't know how much of the story you told me is true, and I don't know if you collaborated to kill Pengamu. Then you perfectly avoided all your guilt and all the evil deeds of Pengamu. It's all the seven of you, so my grandfather will hate you. for thou art the first of the seven. Of course, now you are the only one alive among the seven, and only you know the truth of all this. ”

The old man grabbed his necklace and said to Lixia, "I will prove that I am a living person." ”

"You can't prove it. Lixia said.

The old man took off the fish-shaped jade pendant in front of us, and then his body slowly turned gray and poured down.

At the bottom of a pile of gray substance, a fish-shaped jade pendant was inserted diagonally.

"The old man is dead?" I said.

"You can see clearly, he committed suicide. Lixia said.

"Wait, what the hell is going on?" said the sea, puzzled.

Lixia picked up the jade pendant and said, "If you want to know, you need to go back and ask." ”

"Who?" I said, puzzled.

"His son, the one who now lives in his house. Lixia said, putting the jade pendant in his pocket, thinking about walking outside the nursing home.

"What are you going to do?" said the sea.

Lixia turned his head and said, "There is an old man missing from the nursing home, and we have asked about this old man before. Do you want to stay and wait to be caught?"

The sea immediately grabbed me and headed outside.

At the door of Han Dong's house, Lixia took the lead and knocked on the door again.

The middle-aged man opened the door again and said, "Why are you again?"

Lixia took out the fish-shaped jade pendant and said, "Your father is completely dead." ”

"What are you talking about? I don't understand. "The middle-aged man is going to close the door.

Lixia stuck one foot in the door and said, "I'll say it again, your father is completely dead. I know the secret, but you have to tell us what you've done. ”

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and opened the door.

Han Dong's home is not big, one bedroom and one living room, and we all sit in the hall at this time.

The middle-aged man sat across from us and said, "My dad died." ”

"Didn't you say you were in a nursing home before?" said the sea.

"He died half a year ago, but he liked this pair of jade pendants very much during his lifetime. The middle-aged man said.

"We all know that. Lixia said.

"I planned to use jade pendants to accompany the burial, and hung the whole pair of jade pendants on the old man's neck and pushed them to be cremated. But who knew that the next day in the crematorium the coffin moved, open the coffin. My dad became two. One is dead, the other is somewhat demented. I couldn't help it, so I made an excuse to have the coffin transported back home. The middle-aged man said.

"Where's the dead body?" Lixia said.

The middle-aged man pointed to the refrigerator not far away and did not speak.

There is a refrigerator in the hall, and the seat is indeed a little weird. Lixia immediately walked over, and the sea and I hurriedly followed.

There was a big lock on the refrigerator, and Lixia said to the middle-aged man, "Can you open it and take a look?"

The middle-aged man took out a key from the cabinet and opened the freezer.

Inside lay the corpse of an old man, exactly like the old man just now.

"Why are you putting the elderly in a nursing home?" I said.

"My dad is dead, and I've tried to take care of this Alzheimer's dad. But he's not my dad at all, he's just a dead man who can breathe. So I had no choice but to send him to a nursing home. The middle-aged man said.

"People are dead, and it's normal for people to have no souls. Lixia said.

"No, why did the old man talk to you just now?" I said.

"Reminiscing about the past, let's go back to the light. Lixia said.

"It's so wicked. I said.

"What the old man said just now, there are more than a dozen such evil things. The sea said.

Lixia looked at me and said, "Can you tell him this story?"

I glanced at the sea, and the sea nodded.

It took us more than an hour to tell the middle-aged man all about the Pang family and Lop Nur.

The middle-aged man reached out and took off the yang-engraved jade pendant from the old man's neck and said, "I should understand what you are talking about, this watch and this jade pendant are both unlucky things." You guys deal with it, I don't have any ideas. ”

Lixia took the jade pendant and the watch and said, "What are you going to do?"

The middle-aged man turned around and said, "I plan to take my father to be cremated tomorrow." ”

"Are we going to hand it over to the state?" said the sea.

"What do you say when you ask something you've lost for so long?" said Ritsu.

Dahai said with a smile: "I have an antique store and a ghost market, so it's not difficult to find an excuse to find one." ”

"The things of the old people's generation are self-inflicted, and I hope that things can pass. Let's just assume it didn't happen, okay?" said Ritsu.

I have no say as a listener, and the sea has nothing to say as the beneficiary of hundreds of billions of assets.

The middle-aged man could only nod his head in acquiescence to the opinions put forward by Lixia.

(Postscript)

Half a year later.

Dahai opened his own printing factory and carried out his concept of opening a factory as a boss to the end.

I got the right to manage the south side of the ghost market, and I can eat and drink spicy food every day without selling villains.

Lixia dragged the sea to Fu directly to the management, from an intermediary employee to a regional agent.

The middle-aged man's name is Han Hong, and when he asked, he was actually a top student at the Central University of Finance and Economics. Dahai was directly hired by Gaoxin, and Fu Bo and his henchmen were replaced by Han Hong.

After the sea handed over the ghost eye watch and the Pisces jade pendant, he also learned a secret during the chat.

At that time, there were 17 cultural relics, and now the state only has archives and no entities. All of them were not shipped back, but scattered across the country and around the world.

If only this ghost eye watch and Pisces jade pendant are recovered.
