Early the next morning, Yao's father and Yao's mother went out excitedly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Before leaving, Yao Jiani asked them for 200 yuan. He said he was going to go out for a walk.

It was originally scheduled to go to grandma's house today. Also canceled because of yesterday's mudslide and the weather that has been raining.

Yao Jiani also began to spend the first weekend after returning from rebirth. Maybe it's because of the space. Yao Jiani did not choose pedestrian streets and shopping malls, but decided to go to the antique city to have a look. There is a large antique city in the south of Ningxi City, but it is not the largest in the whole country or even in the surrounding provinces.

When you arrive at the antique city, the antique city is like a pedestrian street, with two stalls set up by small vendors on both sides of the street, and small shops with good decoration. The difference between this and the pedestrian street is that everyone chooses quietly, the vendors don't bother, and a few of them introduce their things not too loudly. As far as the eye can see, most of them are old people.

There are not many people who are sparse either. Yao Jiani was a little abrupt here at this time, and there were many people looking at her. One of the old men looked at it with a lot of amusement.

Yao Jiani didn't care about the eyes around her at all, and walked to a stall, and it happened that the old man was also there.

"Boss, how can you sell this!" Yao Jiani looked at a small box and asked.

"Two hundred." The boss stretched out two fingers and painted.

"This is an ordinary box that has not been many years old, and the workmanship is not very good, even the material is very ordinary. The boss is expensive! Yao Jiani held the small box and played with it in her hand.

"That's a hundred, you can't go low." The vendor said with some pain.

The old man next to him had already had an itchy tooth. He had been looking here for so long just now just because of this small box, and he wasn't sure if there was anything in it, so he didn't speak. Who knew that he was cut off by a little girl.

Yao Jiani's heart was already happy, just now she felt that this box seemed to have some kind of aura, and she looked through and saw that there was a jade plate inside. She always felt that this jade plate was very useful to her, so she couldn't wait to buy it.

"Can you take a step to speak?" It was the old man next to him who spoke up.

"Is there something wrong with the old man?" The two walked to the side, and Yao Jiani asked with some confusion.

"Little friend, can this box be transferred to the old man?"

"There's nothing special about this old man's box! And I really like this box, it's very similar to the one my grandmother used when I was a child, so I'm afraid I won't be able to do it as you wanted. Yao Jiani has already begun to complain in her heart, this old guy definitely knows that there is something in the box, and he wants to make me have no door, no, not even a window.

"Well, if a gentleman doesn't win people's love, the old man won't be difficult to be a little friend. Little friends are interested in going to the old man's shop and taking a seat. The old man sent out an invitation.

"Old man, I don't go around with Xiaoyou, I just want to know if this box has a mezzanine, I want to see what it is."

"Old man, you know there's something in there!"

"I just think it's possible, it seems that Xiaoyou is extraordinary, and when I look at it, I see that there is a mezzanine inside. I take the liberty of asking, how did Xiaoyou know? ”

"Old man, the secret of heaven must not be revealed, this is a little secret of mine, so I won't talk about it. Since you want to see it, let's go and see it together. ”

"Okay, my shop is a little ahead of the 'Duobao Pavilion'."

The two of them didn't walk a few steps to arrive. Duobao Pavilion is unique in this antique city. Two-storey building, quaint and luxuriously decorated.

"It looks like this old man is not ordinary!" Yao Jiani looked at the building in front of her and thought silently.

"Little friend, please."

"Grandpa, please too."

The two of them walked up to the second floor, and the decoration on the second floor was more elegant, not like a place to sell things, but more like a place to meet customers.

"I've known each other for a long time. What's the name of the little friend! The old man handed over a cup of tea and said.

"Grandpa, my name is Yao Jiani. Thank you grandpa for the tea. "Sniffed the fragrance of tea" This tea is so fragrant! ”

"This is an authentic Lu'an melon slice. The taste is elegant. Don't be an old man, the old man's call. Just call me Grandpa Chen. ”

"Okay, Grandpa Chen."

"O Jiani! Now you can open this box and show me, I just looked at it for a long time and always thought it would have a mezzanine, but I didn't find anything. ”

"Grandpa, look at it." Yao Jiani took out the small box she bought at the stall just now, and opened it gently, on the surface, this is an ordinary box, a bit like the box used by women to dress up with jewelry, and the carving on it is also a very ordinary mandarin duck playing in the water, and at first glance, I think it is a dowry or something like that when I got married.

There was nothing peculiar in the box, it was empty. Yao Jiani asked the old man for a needle, and gently put a small hole on the left side of the box into it, poked it hard, and could clearly feel that it was a switch-like thing inside, and shrank inside.

Then Yao Jiani picked it with her hand from the edge of the box, and the mezzanine of the box was exposed. The jade plaque inside the mezzanine is also revealed.

"It's amazing, who would have known that this little eye on this side would be a switch." The old man picked up the box and looked at it carefully, and said with emotion.

"O Jiani! I would venture to ask, how did you know there was a switch here? ”

"I have read a book of Qimen Dunjia, which is the original skill of a hidden sect 'Lubanmen' in the past. However, it is said that it has long been lost. I remembered it today when I saw the mark on this box. You see there's an axe mark, but it's rough and subtle. Yao Jiani picked up the box and pointed the mark to the old man.

"It's really, but this one has been integrated with the pattern on the box, and you really can't see it if you don't look closely. Jani, hello eyesight. ”

"I've only been able to observe it if I've read the book, and if I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have been able to find it." Yao Jiani said with a somewhat humble smile.

"However, look at this box, the years should not be long, the skills of Lubanmen have disappeared for hundreds of years, how can anyone still use it, is there still a hidden person?" Yao Jiani muttered a little.

"Jiani, are you wondering who made this box?"

"Yes, yes, but I don't want to know who it is? Hidden people, since people don't want to go out of the mountain, why bother other other people's lives! ”

"You doll is not ordinary, you actually have such thoughts. But your insight is also not bad! The old man took a sip of tea and looked at Yao Jiani with some inquiry.

"Where, by chance."

"Then do you know the origin of the jade plate in this box? Looking at the appearance of this jade plate, the years are definitely not short. ”

"This stumps me, I don't know what Grandpa Chen's jade plate is for."

"Then can you transfer this jade plate to me? You can bid as much as you want. The old man was a little excited to buy the jade plate, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that this jade card was not a short time.

"Grandpa Chen, you just said that you don't like people! I like this jade brand a lot, and I don't want to sell it. ”

"Ahem." The old man took a sip of tea with some embarrassment. "Well, the old man doesn't take what you like."

"This little girl is really shrewd enough." The old man complained in his heart.

"Look at Jiani, you are not bored to see it, can you recognize the old man as a friend! Let's make a year's friend. ”

"Good! Absolutely. ”

"This is my contact information, you can contact me if you have any questions, the whole country is not good, but in Ningxi City, this acre and three points of land, there are some things I can still help." The old man took out something that looked like a business card and handed it to Yao Jiani.

"Thank you, grandpa, I will call you if you have something." Yao Jiani accepted the business card and was shocked when she saw the name on it. The name "Chen Zhongxin" is very ordinary, but there is only one old man named Chen Zhongxin who can help in this acre and three points of land in Ningxi City.

Later, when he died, Yao Jiani knew about this founding father. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he served as the responsible person of some secrecy agencies, so the outside world and the media never reported on him. Later, he retired bravely and did not hold any position, so there were basically no people who knew him.

"No wonder this old man looks familiar." Yao Jiani was silent on the surface, and she was already muttering in her heart. Put away your business cards carefully.

"Grandpa Chen's time is not early, I'm going home. We'll talk next time. ”

"Good. Walking. ”

Bidding farewell to the old man, Yao Jiani quickly went home to know the secret of the jade plate, although she felt a gloomy aura on the jade plate, but there seemed to be no malice.
