It was pouring rain in the middle of the night, and Zhuo Yang was woken up by the sound of rain, and he heard someone talking in a daze. At first, I thought it was a dream, but when I listened carefully, I immediately woke up - it was Lu Yingyi's voice.

Although Lu Yingyi moved out of his room, the two are still next-door neighbors, and because the balcony is only separated by a short distance of more than ten centimeters, it is still very convenient to hear the movement next door. Who is Lu Yingyi talking to? Zhuo Yang had never heard Lu Yingyi have such an angry and cold tone, and the Lu Yingyi he recognized was lazy, smiling, with a little unpredictable little cunning, occasionally forced to be in a hurry, and would show a cute look that made people laugh.

Thinking of this, Zhuo Yang sat up, got out of bed and walked to the balcony, looking out. It was dark outside, only the door light at the door was still on, revealing a little light, Lu Yingyi was standing on the balcony on the phone, his expression stiff under the light. Zhuo Yang listened carefully, first heard the words "Lan Family", and then intermittently "A Country Art Week", "Yu Cihang", "Auction" and other words Zhuo Yang understood, but the three words "Yu Cihang" were cold and clueless. That day, Zhuo Yang certainly brought Jiao's message to him, which made Lu Yingyi lose his temper on the spot, but after that, Lu Yingyi didn't mention anything about it, so that Zhuoyang is still in the dark, and he has not yet figured out the relationship between Lu Yingyi, Jiao, and the Lan family.

"That's enough!" Lu Yingyi suddenly raised his voice, although the voice was still suppressed, but the resistance in it was almost overflowing, he said, "I just did my duty to tell you, you don't think too far! After saying that, he didn't even say "goodbye" and hung up the phone.

The rain is still dripping, and the raindrops gather into raindrops, which in turn flow down the eaves along the downspout, making a sound like a stream. After Lu Ying hung up the phone, he walked back and forth restlessly on the balcony a few times, as if his anger had not subsided, and after a long time, he barely calmed down, pushed open the door and went in. Zhuo Yang stood by the window for a while, and made sure that Lu Ying was asleep, so he opened the door and went out and went up to the third floor.

Zhang Xuebi was swimming happily in the online world at this time, and she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed after being interrupted.

"What are you doing!" he yelled at Zhuo Yang fiercely, and the table was as full of empty Sprite bottles as ever.

Zhuo Yang said, "I'm sorry, I want to ask you something." ”

Zhang Xuebi "crackled" on the keyboard and tapped hard, without looking at Zhuo Yang and said, "Say." ”

Zhuo Yang said: "You have known Xiao Lu longer than me, do you know what Yu Cihang is?"

"Yu Cihang?" Zhang Xuebi pressed the enter key heavily, and then turned the computer chair around and said, "Why are you asking this?"

Zhuo Yang said: "You know. ”

"I know. ”

"Sue me. ”

Zhang Xuebi thinks that he is a weird guy, and now he thinks that Zhuo Yang is not much better. He originally wanted to say why did I sue you, but then he thought about it better not to offend this person, but he knew Zhuo Yang's past identity and experience better than everyone else, and he absolutely believed that this person could be more ruthless than most people when necessary. Thinking of this, he pulled out a memory card from the drawer and said, "Oh, take it and see it yourself." ”

Zhuo Yang took it and said, "Lend me the computer from last time." ”

"Still next door. ”

Zhuo Yang forgot to say "thank you" this time, and hurriedly took the card and went next door. Looking at Zhuo Yang's back, the corners of Zhang Xuebi's mouth curled slightly, he felt that Lu Yingyi seemed to have provoked someone who shouldn't be messed with this time, but so what, it had nothing to do with him anyway!

"Love love love or something, it's the most boring!" Zhang Xuebi thought so, and immersed himself in his favorite 0 and 1 world again.

Zhuo Yang turned on the light, and the dim light accompanied by the faint sound of rain outside set off the entire library very warmly. Zhuo Yang sat down in his old position, turned on the computer, and inserted the memory card. There are not many things in the memory card, just a PPT article and a few word documents. Zhuo Yang opened the ppt text first, which was more than two months ago, that is, a week after the end of the Huangyang case, the exhibits at the East Asian auction of Country A Cultural Week, which was held more than two months ago, and he flipped through the past page by page, and quickly found the target.

"Ming Yuci Hang riding a statue. Zhuo Yang narrowed his eyes and carefully read the instructions. The description part is very brief, in addition to explaining the characteristics and value of the craftsmanship of this jade Cihang, it only emphasizes that this is the birthday gift of Emperor Jiajing in the 27th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhuo Yang pondered, what does this statue of Yu Cihang have to do with Lu Yingyi or the Lu family, and what does it have to do with Jiao's Ning Yuan Lan family? The rules and other aspects were introduced accordingly, among which there is a large section that counts the famous dart games of various dynasties, Zhuo Yang's heart moved, and he found the corresponding part of the Jiajing year of the Ming Dynasty, and sure enough, he saw that there was something abnormal here. The document reads: "During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the dart industry developed and flourished, and there were many famous dart bureaus in the rivers and lakes, but they were all headed by the Lu family of Taiyuan Yangwei Dart Bureau, and the Lan family of Cangzhou Ningyuan Dart Bureau was secondary, followed by Weihai, Zhenyu, and Chimelong, but because of the 'Yu Cihang' case, Yangwei Dart Bureau suffered a heavy setback, and Ningyuan Dart Bureau had to be disbanded, which gave the latecomer Changlong the opportunity to replace it. ”

Contacted, found!

Zhuo Yang slowly opened the documents one by one, carefully read the contents, and after more than half an hour, he finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter. Zhuo Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the Cangzhou Lan family was convicted because of the Lu family in Taiyuan, so it is not difficult to understand the fact that the descendants of the Lu family have a grudge against the Lu family, what he is difficult to understand is that if the statue of 'Yu Cihang' has been damaged in Wanyue Town, then where did the statue of 'Yu Cihang' that appeared at the auction of country A at this time come from? Is it a restoration of the original? Is it an imitation of an ancient craftsman? Or is it a modern fake at all?

What also puzzled Zhuo Yang was that the "Yu Cihang" case looked conclusive and the facts were clear, but it was very inconsistent when examined in detail. Lan Su is the head of the Ningyuan Dart Bureau, not to mention that the rich armor world is at least the rich armor side, plus the dart master industry has always required the people engaged in it to be innocent and upright, why would such a person steal the "Jade Cihang" statue, why didn't he run away after being discovered, but left behind to fight to the death, what does he have to do with those White Lotus Sect disciples? And what about the Jurchen and lion roar that appeared out of thin air?

The case that was settled hundreds of years ago, the ancients who had turned into ashes, but at this rainy night hundreds of years later, a deep seed was planted in Zhuoyang's heart, just waiting for one day to take root and sprout, grow a towering tree, and return to its original appearance.

"Morning ......" Li Jingshu was stunned for a moment and said, "Why, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Zhuo Yang said "um", he got up in the middle of the night to check the information of "Yu Cihang", and then analyzed a lot and speculated a lot, and couldn't help but fall asleep on the sofa on the third floor. But he didn't sleep very peacefully, and he had a rare dream for one night, in which he and Lu Yingyi both returned to that ancient era, Lu Yingyi was the identity of Lu Xiuwu, the young master of the Lu family, and he became an invisible and intangible. He watched Lu Yingyi escort "Yu Cihang" to Beijing, and stayed at the Crescent Town Inn on the way, but something happened in the middle of the night, and in the skyrocketing firelight, Cihang appeared out of thin air, and under him was a golden lion roaring with flames all over his body. Seeing Lu Yingyi fighting with someone, the lion roar suddenly roared and rushed towards him, Zhuo Yang wanted to stop it, but it was passed through his chest, and when he came back to his senses, the lion's roar had already knocked Lu Ying to the ground and was about to bite his throat. In a hurry, Zhuo Yang grabbed a brick and smashed it, but when he heard the crisp sound of "ping pong", the golden lion's roar somehow turned into a "Yu Cihang" statue, and was smashed by this blow, and it was immediately shattered completely, and Lu Yingyi opened his eyes and watched the debris splashing in the sky, his eyes revealed endless sadness and despair, he said: "Yu Cihang is broken, I can only die." ”

Zhuo Yang let out a cold sweat, and woke up from his dream, the whole person fell to the ground, and there was a notebook smashed on his body, which hurt terribly. Coming back to his senses, Zhuo Yang cleared his throat and said to Li Jingshu: "It's nothing, I was woken up by the sound of rain in the middle of the night last night, and I haven't slept much since then." ”

Li Jingshu didn't ask much, only said, "Then I'll go make breakfast for Young Master Zhuo, and make a pot of tea by the way." There isn't much to do if you don't open a hotel now, so you can rest and rest today. ”

Zhuo Yang nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you, Uncle Jing." ”

Li Jingshu smiled and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, and went into the kitchen to get busy.

Zhuo Yang still couldn't be idle, stood in a daze for a while, then went to the bathroom to squeeze a rag, wiped the table, and wiped halfway, only to hear a "jingle" at the door, and a strange face poked in at the door.

"Hello, do you have work here?" The man had a young round face, about twenty years old, and was a very amiable young man. Seeing Zhuo Yang nodding, he breathed a sigh of relief, pushed open the door and came in and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you so early, my name is Zhao Yuan, and I came this time with a commission to trouble you." ”
