Chapter Ninety-Five: The Secret of the Longevity Lock, the Ring Lock in the Lock
In the hospital, faced with Xiao Sixuan's proposal, Wang Ming laughed at it.
What Xiao Sixuan said was exactly what he wanted to say in his heart. Just as Wang Ming was thinking about how to respond to Xiao Sixuan, Hua Feng came in to say goodbye, and Wang Ming immediately took this opportunity to return to the hotel with Hua Feng to discuss with his uncle Hua Mingyang.
Since he met Xiao Sixuan, a doctor with great attainments in mental illness, in the provincial hospital, Wang Ming also plans to treat his mother's condition here.
Faced with Wang Ming's noncommittal words, Xiao Sixuan had to sigh and prepare to stay here and contact Wang Ming for a period of time to see the next move.
After Wang Ming and Hua Feng confessed to Sister-in-law Zhang to take care of their mother, they also rushed back to the hotel from the hospital, ready to tell Hua Mingyang about the things in the hospital.
When the two returned to the hotel room, they saw Hua Mingyangza with an angry face on the sofa with a gloomy face.
…… Seeing the two children come back, Hua Mingyang took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.
"Something happened in the group just now, I'm afraid I will have to fly abroad to deal with it in the next two days."
After looking at Wang Ming and the two for a while, Hua Mingyang tried his best to calm down his tone and said to the two.
The heart that was originally softened because of Wang Ming, after today's call, Hua Mingyang's heart hardened again!
"Uncle, if you have something to do, go and get busy first, my mother is here for me to take care of, you don't have to worry too much. It was not bad to meet that Dr. Xiao in the hospital today, and some of the treatment plans and ideas she proposed were not much different from mine. I feel that if my mother is treated by her, it will be of great benefit to the recovery of the condition. ”
Seeing his uncle say this, Wang Ming didn't think much about it, and said immediately.
Hua Feng, who was standing on the side, didn't say a word, just hid there and quietly observed his father.
Since he was a child, in his memory, Hua Feng has never seen his father so angry. No matter how big the things in the group are, no matter how bad the situation is, my father has never been as uncontrollable as he is today.
Hua Feng knew it in his heart and watched silently.
"This ...... Okay, let this kid Hua Feng accompany you in the mainland to take care of your mother. In this case, I can rest assured, anyway, this kid knows about fooling around all day long. I can rest assured that I can follow you, who is a cousin, and teach him well. ”
Seeing that Wang Ming had decided to stay here to take care of his mother, Hua Mingyang had to give up the last hope of taking Wang Ming away and then said.
The last time I heard Hua Feng talk about Wang Ming's private paternity test, Hua Mingyang also realized that if he continued to hide it from Wang Ming like this, I am afraid that Wang Ming will become more and more suspicious of his uncle and become distrustful.
"If Hua Feng has nothing to do, of course there is no problem in staying in the mainland to relax, but if he has something, there is no need to delay his time too much."
Seeing that his uncle wanted to leave Hua Feng here to take care of his mother, Wang Ming thought for a while and said.
After coming into contact with Hua Feng, Wang Ming also felt that Hua Feng was an idle person. If you really let him be tied here all day, I'm afraid it will really suffocate him.
"It's okay, it's okay, I've wanted to walk around the mainland for a long time, and I just took this opportunity to stay in the mainland as a tourist."
Seeing his father looking at him, Hua Feng hurriedly shook his hand and said to Wang Ming.
"Alright, you don't have to worry too much about your cousin's affairs. Let's take a look at your longevity lock, didn't we also see a longevity lock on that little girl in Huayang City last time? This time, I asked Ouyang Bin, the chief appraiser of our Hua Group in Yunhua Province, to invite several industry masters to appraise it, which should be able to solve some of the doubts in your heart. ”
Regarding the 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock' that is looking for clues to Wang Ming's life experience, Hua Mingyang also has a lot of doubts in his heart.
As far as he knew, this longevity lock was the inheritance of the Wang family, and it was also the most important clue for the two families to find Wang Ming.
But the appearance of a long-life lock in Huayang City, which is very similar to this, also made Hua Mingyang a little interested.
While talking at this moment, Hua Mingyang also wanted to take this opportunity to see if he could take away the longevity lock on Wang Ming's body. It's good to cut off some important clues for the Wang family to find Wang Ming.
For the Wang family, Hua Mingyang has lost his usual reason under his anger, originally before this, he saw all kinds of things about Wang Ming, and his heart softened, and he also wanted to see how the Wang family was doing, and told them about Wang Ming's whereabouts, so that Wang Ming, the child, could fulfill a thought in his heart.
But after a phone call, Hua Mingyang's heart hardened again!
Since the Wang family has no heart and lungs, why should they tell them about finding the child?!
…… After talking to Wang Ming about these things, Hua Mingyang asked Hua Feng to go out to inform those entourage, and asked Ouyang Bin to take a few people in the antique industry to a special room to identify the 'dragon and phoenix longevity lock' on Wang Ming's body.
Because of his scruples about the Wang family's network in Yunzhou City, the provincial capital, Hua Mingyang asked Ouyang Bin to carefully conduct some screening when he asked Ouyang Bin to find someone to identify.
Therefore, although the antique people who came in with Ouyang Bin are not particularly famous on the surface, they are also quite powerful in the underground antique world.
Ouyang Bin came in with two old men in their fifties and sixties, and Wang Ming sat in front of the table, with the 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock' tied to his wrist for Ouyang Bin and the others to carefully identify.
Regarding the 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock' in Wang Ming's hand, the last time he went to Huayang City, Ouyang Bin also had a quick look, but he didn't know much about this lock.
At this moment, taking this opportunity, Ouyang Bin and the other two old men carefully and repeatedly observed the 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock', wanting to see some clues from it.
"How? Guys, do you see something? What is the origin of this longevity lock? ”
After Ouyang Bin and the others looked at it for a while, Hua Mingyang, who was sitting on the side, asked unhurriedly.
"This longevity lock should be at least a hundred years old, and we can't say for sure. Because the workmanship of this longevity lock is very unusual, unless a special instrument is used to detect the historical year, otherwise we dare not make an assertion just by looking at it. ”
One of the old men pondered for a moment before he spoke.
"The gem in the middle of this longevity lock should be able to open, if I guessed correctly, this is a 'lock within a lock', and there is another mystery behind the gem."
The words spoken by the second old man made everyone's expressions change.
"I don't know if you've noticed, the 'dragon pattern' and 'phoenix pattern' carved on this 'dragon and phoenix longevity lock' have some very small traces, as if there is some mystery in it."
As the chief appraiser arranged by the Hua Group in Yunhua Province, Ouyang Bin even took a magnifying glass for identification and carefully observed the 'Dragon and Phoenix Longevity Lock' in Wang Ming's hand, and only after a long time did he express his judgment.
As he spoke, Ouyang Bin gestured to Wang Ming to the places where there were traces.
And when he heard Ouyang Bin's words at this moment, when Wang Ming looked carefully, he found that as Ouyang Bin said, there were really some very small traces on the carvings of these dragons and phoenixes. If you don't pay attention to it, it's really not easy to see these traces.
"Could there be another lock like this? Is there anything you have to say about it? What do you think? ”
Thinking of seeing the 'Zhang's' longevity lock on the little girl in Huayang City, Hua Mingyang thought for a while and asked a few people tentatively.
"On the surface, these longevity locks should be prepared for children by adults in the family, and it is likely that they will be passed down from generation to generation. But if this longevity lock hides a keyhole and has another mystery, that's another story. Hua Dong, you guess these things, there may be. After all, some antiquities, handed down by the ancestors, also have their intentions, I'm afraid there is really any historical inheritance here, I can't say. After all, something like this is probably some agreement made privately by some great lords or secret families, or a testimony to various major events, and so on."
Hearing Hua Mingyang's words, the two old men glanced at each other, and then said their judgment from the bottom of their hearts.
Ouyang Bin, who was standing on the side, also nodded frequently, expressing his agreement with the two people's statements.
In the eyes of ordinary people, these ancient locks are just ordinary objects. But for those of them who are very knowledgeable in the world of antiques, each ancient lock has a different meaning.
For example, the 'zodiac locks' used on the dowry box when the bride got married in ancient times, including the 'torture locks' used to take prisoners in ancient times, and the 'chain locks' that require two keys to open.
People who don't know about these inheritances can't appreciate the value and heritage of such things.
Another charm of historical antiquities is to trace back to the roots and explore the deeds behind the fog of history.
"I wonder if I can open this longevity lock? What is the method of the two of you? Or do you have any friends in this area? ”
Wang Ming, who had been sitting on the side and had not spoken much, opened his mouth and asked a few people at this moment.
Hearing everyone say that there might be something hidden in this longevity lock, Wang Ming also wanted to open it and take a look.
I couldn't find the news of my father's family, but when I asked my uncle, my uncle had a hint of prevarication, and Wang Ming wanted to try to find the news of his father's family in this long-lived lock.
"I have a friend who is very good at lockpicking and might ask him to help. If he saw this interesting longevity lock, he would be very interested. But this friend has a strange temper, so let's go back and talk to him about it and see if we can bring him in. ”
One of the old men thought for a while after hearing Wang Ming's words, and then said to everyone with some uncertainty.
Both of them are pouring some underground 'black goods' transactions, and this time they were entrusted by Ouyang Bin to take a look at the antiquity longevity lock in Wang Ming's hand.
But considering the status of Hua Mingyang and others, the longevity lock of this antiquity cannot be forcibly opened.
In desperation, the two thought of an old friend who was 'locked in the road' to open the object. Of course, because this person's identity is not a character on the surface, the two old men also have scruples when they speak, and they dare not say a word.
After all, that old friend has a strange surname, and he is a stolen saint. If something really goes wrong, then it will be quite embarrassing for them to be caught in the middle.
"Okay, then bother the two of you to bother, just a few days, can you ask your friend to come and take a look at this longevity lock. Manager Ouyang, you have to entertain these two old gentlemen. ”
Seeing that there were no new clues from these people about the longevity lock, Hua Mingyang waved his hand to finalize the matter.
For Hua Mingyang, as long as he tells things to continue, the people below will naturally do it with all their hearts. So after explaining this matter, Hua Mingyang will no longer be too distracted.
After all, he still has a lot of important things to do, and a small long-life lock is not worth his time.
"Then Hua Dong, you are busy first, and I will take the two old gentlemen back to rest first. I'll report back to you if there's anything new. ”
Hearing Hua Mingyang's words, Ouyang Bin said knowingly, and then left the room with the two old men.
"I'll just say, there must be some secret in these locks. Maybe it's a treasure hidden, or a legend of a love token? ”
After everyone left, Hua Feng, who had been standing on the side and had not spoken, spoke at this moment.
"Less flamboyant, you stinky boy smart?"
Hearing his son's words, Hua Mingyang glared at him.
"I've decided, I'm going to get out of here tonight. Wang Ming, you have to take care of your mother here. And Hua Feng, you've grown up, it's time to make snacks for your father, okay? ”
After being silent for a while, Hua Mingyang looked up at Wang Ming and said.
Today's phone call with Wang Dingguo made him completely dead to the Wang family, and Wang Ming wanted to stay here to take care of his mother's condition, and wanted to see if there were any secrets in the longevity lock.
Put several things together, Hua Mingyang can't take Wang Ming away anyway, let alone take away this long-life lock related to his life experience. Only then did he completely break this mind and decided to leave.
The overseas group has been in a state of urgency, and if he doesn't go back to preside over the overall situation, I'm afraid the situation will be critical.
"Leaving tonight?"
Unexpectedly, my uncle said to leave and left in such a hurry, Wang Ming looked up at him and said in amazement.
Hua Mingyang nodded after hearing Wang Ming's words, and didn't say anything.
Seeing that it was meaningless to continue to delay in the mainland, Hua Mingyang was unwilling to delay more in an emergency.
…… In the afternoon of the same day, Hua Mingyang went to the hospital to sit with Wang Ming's mother for an afternoon, and only when it was getting dark did he take a car to the airport.
Wang Ming and Hua Feng went to see them off, and Zhou Yunxiang and Ouyang Bin, the responsible people of Yunzhou City, the provincial capital, also rushed to see them off.
Some of the words Hua Mingyang said when parting made Wang Ming a little stunned and moved.
At the same time that Wang Ming was busy with various things in the province, Li Yufei's mother in Huayang City had already done a good job in the orphanage, and rushed back to the province with Hui'er and others from the orphanage together with her daughter Li Yufei, preparing to take the opportunity to contact the Wang family and meet that Wang Dingguo.
