227 The Mystery of the Ancient Palace
A smile swept up at the corner of the boss's mouth, and his gaze gently swept over Meng Pingping's face, "The things in my ancient Zhai, if you meet someone who is destined, how much money you can give." If you don't have a relationship with this antiquity, you won't sell it. ”
"Hey, I said, don't talk about you!" Meng Pingping pursed her mouth, "We are not three-year-old children, we think that we can use such a method to try to get away with our money, then you are wrong!" ”
The boss was still not angry, he leisurely picked up the ancient mirror and looked at it, and said to Su Wen, "Girl, do you like this mirror?" ”
Su Wen nodded hurriedly, "It's a beautiful mirror, even if you can't see the figure clearly, it looks good in the house!" ”
"Stop, don't think about putting this mirror in the bedroom! It looks ghostly. As soon as Meng Pingping blurted out her words, she suddenly thought of something, and turned her head to look at Chu Qiao. The master of ghost hunting is still here, whether this mirror is real or fake, can Jojo tell it?
"Pingping, what do you say? What's the hell about this mirror? Su Wen said unconvinced, "Besides, is there any ghost, can't Qiaoqiao see it?" ”
"Qiaoqiao, come over and see if this thing is the product of a small handmade workshop." Meng Pingping deliberately wanted to make the boss ugly, this girl is this temper, follow the hair, it's easy to say anything, if she raises the bar with her, she has to earn a win or lose.
Chu Qiao was stunned, he didn't provoke anyone, how could it be on himself?
"I don't know either......" Chu Qiao stared at the big eyes and smirked, "Yun Molai may know a little bit about antiques, but I really don't know much about them." ”
"How could you not understand?" Meng Pingping shouted exaggeratedly, and then squeezed her eyes at Chu Qiao, Niu'er, even if you don't understand, you can pretend to understand! You just say it's fake! Anyway, this kind of small shop is almost all fakes, you just have to say fake, and you're right!
"I really don't understand!" Chu Qiao spread his hands very innocently, "You can't pretend to understand, right?" ”
"Whether it's true or not, I love it! Boss, how much does this mirror cost? Su Wenyi said angrily, "I don't have much money on me, if it's not enough, I'll go back and get it." ”
"Oh." The boss responded, "Three hundred and twenty-eight yuan." ”
"Three hundred and twenty-eight?" Meng Pingping shouted, "Are you robbing people? Such a broken mirror is worth thirty-twenty-eight yuan? This thing is on the stall, and it's only a dozen or twenty yuan! Seeing that my family's literature is rare, the price is sky-high? It's dark! ”
As soon as money was mentioned, Meng Pingping stopped arguing with Su Wen, her sisters' money couldn't be cheated by this godly chattering guy!
Su Wen began to hurriedly take out his small wallet and began to take out money outside.
Chu Qiao was a little strange, how could there be a whole price at this price? Could it be that the boss knows how much money Su Wen has?
"Three hundred, twenty, eight!" Su Wen took out all the money in his wallet, "Just right!" ”
As he spoke, he pushed out the pile of banknotes, and Meng Pingping hurriedly stopped him when she saw this, "Hey, Wenwen, are you stupid?" People say three hundred and twenty-eight, just three hundred and twenty-eight? As she spoke, she turned her head and glared at the boss again, "Fifty yuan, love to sell or not!" ”
The boss chuckled, smiled without saying a word, and gently rubbed the mirror with his hand, "It's hard to buy a favorite, this mirror, it doesn't matter if it's true or not, as long as you like it, isn't it?" ”
Su Wen couldn't put it down and held the mirror, "Yes, I really like it." ”
"Well, if you like it, take it away." The boss put the money away with a smile, "Actually, this mirror is not completely invisible, if you have the heart, maybe you can see the shadow." ”
Chu Qiao's eyebrows twitched, this sentence is a bit interesting, don't you really have something wrong with this mirror, right?
Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still, so she got up and walked over there, if there was a problem, she should be able to see it.
Mirrors are actually quite evil. can see the shadow of people, and there are actually people's spirits in the shadows. Feng Shui masters all know that you can't place too many mirrors in your house, and the mirrors shouldn't be too big. The mirror in the bedroom can not be facing the bed, if it is facing the bed, the shadow of the person falls in the mirror for a long time, and the spirit will be sucked away by the mirror.
If that mirror is really an ancient mirror, then no one knows what it has experienced. There are some evil things in many ancient mirrors, so Chu Qiao is also a little curious about that mirror at this moment.
"Wenwen, show me the mirror." Chu Qiao walked over with a smile and looked intently at the mirror.
Taking a closer look, Chu Qiao understood why Su Wen liked this mirror so much, this mirror was really exquisite!
The mirror is copper, covered with some shallow scratches, and there are some patinas around the mirror, which looks like it gives people a quaint feeling, picking up this mirror, Chu Qiao looked at the mirror, and as Meng Pingping said, there was only a vague figure, and he couldn't see anything clearly at all.
I really don't know how girls in ancient times dressed up in such a bronze mirror.
On the handle of the mirror, there is a fiery red garnet, and the fiery red garnet glows with gemstones, which is very beautiful. Turning over the mirror, the back is inlaid with eight stones of different colors, rubrite, moonstone, chlorite, kyanite, obsidian, white crystal, topaz, garnet. These eight stones are inlaid according to the direction of the eight trigrams, which looks very interesting.
Chu Qiao carefully stroked these stones, although these stones are not valuable stones, but they are real stones, even if this mirror is really just an imitation, from the perspective of handicrafts, it is far more than three hundred and twenty-eight yuan, Su Wen bought this mirror, it is not a loss.
"Is there anything wrong with this mirror?" Su Wen asked cautiously, she really liked this mirror, but if Chu Qiao said that she couldn't buy it, she wouldn't buy it.
Chu Qiao smiled, "No, it's a good mirror, more than three hundred yuan is still worth it." With that, she handed the mirror to Su Wen.
There is indeed nothing wrong with this mirror, Chu Qiao she can't see the evil and evil spirits, and when she touches the mirror, there is nothing unusual. Chu Qiao believed that any ghost under her ghost pupil might not be able to hide. Therefore, she handed over the mirror to Su Wen with confidence.
Hearing Chu Qiao say this, Su Wen happily held the mirror in his arms, as if he was afraid that others would snatch it, "Haha, Qiaoqiao, do I still have vision?" ”
"Hmph, Qiaoqiao, you don't know how to persuade her to bargain...... What a stupid hat if you don't bargain! Meng Pingping said a little unhappily.
Chu Qiao glanced at the boss who had been standing quietly next to him smiling, and always felt that this boss was a little incomprehensible, "I'm afraid that no one will sell it if it is less!" ”
There are many strange people in the world, and it is not strange that this boss can calculate how much money Su Wen has, since he has calculated how much money Su Wen has, he will definitely not drop a dollar.
"Hehe...... the boss just chuckled, "if the two girls have anything else to like, you can see again." ”
Meng Pingping pulled Chu Qiao up, "This is the black shop!" We don't look at it, we don't watch it! Let's go! Let's go! ”
Saying that, Chu Qiao and Su Wen were dragged out of the shop by Meng Pingping, Chu Qiao couldn't help but look back, the boss of Gu Zhai was still standing quietly at the door like a sculpture, holding his hands and looking at the three of them with a smile.
"What a strange man." Chu Qiao couldn't help but look back.
"yes!" Meng Pingping said indignantly, "Strange profiteer! ”
Su Wen didn't answer, he kept holding the ancient mirror tightly in his arms, and his eyes were a little confused.
"Hey! Girl, your soul has been taken away by this mirror?! Meng Pingping pushed Su Wen violently, and Su Wen came back to his senses with an "ah", "What?" ”
"Sure enough, I lost my soul!" Meng Pingping wanted to snatch the mirror from Su Wen's hand, but Su Wen hurriedly took a few steps back, "Don't snatch my mirror!" ”
"Look at your stinginess!" Meng Pingping pursed her lips, "Your broken mirror, even if it is given to me, I am not rare!" ”
Chu Qiao paused, and Meng Pingping's joking words echoed in her mind for a moment - "Your soul was taken away by the mirror?" ”
A psychic mirror is indeed capable of soul dementoring!
But it can't take the soul of the living, but it can take the soul of the dead!
The mirror...... There won't be any problems, right?
Chu Qiao suddenly had some doubts about his vision, but if the ghost pupils couldn't see anything, what else could they see through the mystery in this mirror?
Forget it, I still don't think about it, looking at Su Wen is such a rare mirror, even if she doesn't want that mirror now, I'm afraid she will hurt like cutting meat.
"Jojo, what are you thinking?" Meng Pingping saw Chu Qiao distracted behind and greeted her.
Chu Qiao smiled and was relieved, as long as he was there, what sneaky things were he afraid of?
"Here we are."
The young man standing at the gate of Gu Zhai watched Chu Qiao's back disappear at the end of the old street, and on the black Tang costume gown on his body, the golden flow patterns flowed faintly, and a multicolored golden dragon pattern appeared......
As soon as he returned to school, Yun Mo was waiting downstairs in Chu Qiao's apartment.
"Yun Mo, are you here to pick up Qiao Qiao and go out for a walk? Earlier, we just came back from shopping with Qiaoqiao, or you would have invited us to dinner! Meng Pingping, who is a foodie, hurriedly stepped forward and saw Yun Mo, as if she had seen a big meal.
Yun Mo smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Pingping, let's invite you to dinner another day, I have something to do with Qiaoqiao!" ”
"Then Qiaoqiao, let's talk, let's go back first." Su Wen nodded at Yun Mo, and then pulled Meng Pingping towards the bedroom.
"Huh...... Su Wen ...... today It's a little different. Yun Mo glanced at Su Wen's back, Su Wen, like Meng Pingping, is a foodie, every time Yun Mo comes over, he inevitably wants to knock Yun Mo on a meal, and today he let Yun Mo go so easily.
"She's in a hurry to go back and see an ancient mirror she bought." Chu Qiao smiled and said, "By the way, what are you looking for me?" ”
"Let's go, let's go to Li Xiao's side first, he is so anxious that the corners of his mouth are foaming." Yun Mo smiled.
"Is there another murder case?" Chu Qiao frowned, Li Xiao is the captain of the criminal police brigade, and if he can make Li Xiao's mouth bubble in a hurry, it must be a big case.
Yun Mo shook his head, "It's not a homicide, but if we don't go over again, I'm afraid it's going to be a human death, and Li Xiao is going to hang himself!" ”
"Huh?!" Chu Qiao was stunned.
"Haha, just kidding." Yun Mo rubbed Chu Qiao's head and took Chu Qiao's hand, "Let's go!" ”
Yun Mo's car is parked in the parking lot outside the school, and now Yun Mo no longer hides his identity as a "rich second generation", riding a bicycle around the campus every day, but his car is just a very low-key public.
"This is not the way to the criminal police brigade!" Chu Qiao looked at the direction of Yun Mo's car and asked puzzledly.
"Well, go directly to the scene, Li Xiao is waiting for us at the scene." Yun Mo responded.
"There was still no major case, so I went directly to the scene." Chu Qiao pouted, "You should bring the nine cakes, I don't like to watch that bloody scene." ”
"It's really not a fatality." Yun Mo said seriously, "It's the ancient palace that has an accident." ”
"The Ancient Palace? The ancient palace in Yanjing City?! Chu Qiao's eyes immediately widened and said, "Wouldn't it?" What will happen to the ancient palace? The security measures over there are national-level! ”
"Who knows? It was precisely because something happened to the ancient palace that Li Xiao hurriedly asked me to take you over. However, since we are called over, I'm afraid this matter is not simple. Yun Mo said with a wry smile.
Yanjing City is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, and the ancient palace in Yanjing City is the imperial palace of the two dynasties, which is also the most complete preserved ancient palace complex in China. Now the ancient palace has been built into the ancient palace museum, which stores a large number of national treasure-level cultural relics, if something happens here, it is really amazing!
It's no wonder that Li Xiao is in a hurry to start a fire, something happened in the ancient palace, and the above must order the date of solving the case.
The car quickly arrived at the ancient palace, and there are a large number of tourists lingering in the ancient palace on weekdays, and it is a tourist attraction that almost all those who come to Yanjing must visit. But today it is closed here, and I saw several police cars parked in the parking lot outside from a distance, Li Xiao was wearing a police uniform, looking over there, and saw Yun Mo's car coming from a distance, and hurriedly waved to Yun Mo.
"Senior Brother Li is over there!" Chu Qiao pointed in Li Xiao's direction, "I said, every time Senior Brother Li asks us for help, shouldn't we also ask him to apply for some subsidies for us?" I feel very sorry to help all the time! ”
"It's still my Qiaoqiao's thoughtfulness, I must tell him this time!" Yun Mo felt the same way.
Before the car stopped, Li Xiao rushed up to open the door, "Oh, you're here, I'm waiting for you!" ”
"Senior Brother Li, what's the matter, so anxious?" Chu Qiao jumped out of the car and couldn't help but ask.
"Hey, just check it out." Li Xiao said with a sad face, "You said that I, the captain of the criminal police team, are really a bit of a hard worker, everything is easy to fall on my head, and I have a big deal to ......do."
Chu Qiao and Yun Mo looked at each other and smiled, and followed Li Xiao to the museum.
There were still a lot of policemen at the door, and when they walked inside, there was a policeman with a serious look who was busy almost three or five steps, which made Chu Qiao, who was originally scattered, a little nervous, could it really be a big deal? Could it be ...... Stolen from the museum?
After passing through several cordons, they finally came to the outside of a large exhibition hall, Chu Qiao looked up, "Ningshou Palace", the ancient palace is very large, even if Chu Qiao is a native of Yanjing, he really didn't visit the ancient palace, at least, this Ningshou Palace has never been here.
"It's the Treasure Hall over there, right? Lost something? Chu Qiao couldn't help but ask.
"Losing things is still secondary." Li Xiao wrinkled his brows and said, there were still a few people standing over there, seeing Li Xiao walking over with Chu Qiao and Yun Mo, he immediately greeted him, one of the middle-aged men with glasses glanced at Chu Qiao and Yun Mo, and said in a slightly unhappy tone, "Captain Li, are these the two masters you are talking about?" ”
"......" Chu Qiao and Yun Mo had three black lines on their foreheads, when did they become taller? Li Xiao, this kid......
Li Xiao coughed dryly, "Director Zhang, these two are the masters I said, okay, let's go see the scene." ”
Chu Qiao and Yun Mo were about to follow Li Xiao inside, when Director Zhang suddenly spoke, "Wait, Captain Li, are you sure you're not joking?" ”
Li Xiao looked back at Director Zhang in surprise, "When did I joke with you?" Director Zhang, what do you mean by that? ”
Director Zhang said in a deep voice, "Captain Li, although the time given above for this case in the ancient palace is very tight, you can't rush to the doctor!" The two of them are obviously two students, aren't you fooling around? ”
Chu Qiao came back to his senses, oh, he is another person who judges people by their appearance.
"Yes, Senior Brother Li, we are two student babies, how can we help you? Let's go first. Chu Qiao pulled Yun Mo and gave him a "let's go" look.
It's not that Miss Chu is hypocritical and cautious, in fact, Miss Chu, like Yun Mo, doesn't have a good impression of those guys who play an official tone, and besides, what obligation do they have to come to help? After all, there are so many Chinese treasures in the ancient palace, and if one or two are lost, what does it have to do with the two of them? If it weren't for Li Xiao's face, the two of them wouldn't have come over after being killed, but they happened to be disgusted by others, and they found a reason to slip away.
"Don't! Don't leave! Li Xiao was anxious, and hurriedly came to stop Chu Qiao and Yun Mo, "Senior Sister Qiao Qiao, don't you put yourself in the position of ignorance when you are scheming with ignorant people?" Besides, you came to see me face to face, what does it have to do with others? Okay, okay, little sister, don't lose your temper, how about going back and inviting you to dinner? Just do me a favor, okay? ”
Director Zhang over there heard that Li Xiao actually said that he was an "ignorant" person, and he suddenly became angry, no matter where this adult went, he was hugged from front to back, and flattery was indispensable, this time he was actually said by a small policeman, it was simply too hurtful to his self-esteem!
"Comrade Li Xiao, you should pay attention to your words and deeds!" Director Zhang's face immediately turned red, and he looked at Li Xiao with anger on his face, "I'm the action team leader in charge of this case assigned by the above!" You are so leaderless, do you not take the words of the chief seriously? ”
"Director Zhang, it seems that you have forgotten what the chief said, you are just assisting me in solving the case, and all the leading power is here!" Li Xiao turned his head violently, and a fierce aura immediately burst out from his body, Director Zhang was so frightened by Li Xiao's momentum that he took a few steps back before stabilizing his figure, "If you chirp again, you can go back and forth from wherever you want!" I'll report this to the chief! ”
Director Zhang was immediately stunned. The chief did say that he was only assisting Li Xiao in this matter, and if Li Xiao needed anything, or what resources he wanted to mobilize, he would cooperate with him with full authority. But he has always been accustomed to being a "leader", and he has the hat of "action team leader" on his body, and he immediately thought that he had the final say in everything in this operation, so he was dissatisfied with Li Xiao's invitation to Yun Mo and Chu Qiao, two young people who looked childish.
Now that Li Xiao said this, a chill appeared in his heart, if he was really sued by Li Xiao in front of the chief, he would not be able to eat and walk away, and his future would be worrying.
"Oh, Captain Li, why do you say you're so easily excited? Misunderstanding, you misunderstood......" Director Zhang seemed to change his face, and a smile immediately appeared on his face, "I'm also doing this for your good, I'm afraid that these two young people will see the scene inside...... Forehead...... It's going to be a little unbearable, it's not that I don't trust your judgment! ”
Chu Qiao's eyes rolled, and he immediately said, "Senior Brother Li, you lied about the military situation again, didn't you?" What's inside? ”
Li Xiao's face was even more ugly, and he glared at Director Zhang fiercely, and then he smiled and said, "Actually, it's not bloody at all, it's really...... Not bloody at all......"
"I said I should bring the nine loaves here." Chu Qiao glared at Li Xiao, and then glanced at Yun Mo.
Yun Mo also nodded, "Senior Brother Li has also become dishonest. ”
"Let's go, it's all here...... I promise it's not bloody! Li Xiao raised three fingers and swore a promise.
"The devil wants to believe you." Chu Qiao said angrily.
Li Xiao took Chu Qiao and Yun Mo and continued to walk inside, and the group of people behind Director Zhang didn't dare to come forward to stop them, so they followed honestly.
Chu Qiao and Yun Mo, who were already mentally prepared, walked in and took a look, and breathed a sigh of relief, as Li Xiao said, it was not bloody at all, because- the blood was all sucked up, right?
Inside is a small courtyard with a well in the middle of the yard, and a man is lying on the edge of the well.
Seeing the strange posture of the man lying on the edge of the well, Chu Qiao and Yun Mo immediately understood that it could not be called a human being, it should be a corpse.
If it was simply a corpse, I am afraid that the above would not have paid so much attention to it, and a task force was set up so quickly, and Li Xiao would not have bothered to invite himself over.
Chu Qiao and Yun Mo walked over without hesitation, and saw from a distance that the corpse was on the bare arm outside, leaving only a layer of dry skin wrapped around the bones inside, which looked like a dried corpse.
Li Xiao followed, and introduced as he walked, "The time of death of the deceased was around three o'clock in the morning, and it was discovered by the staff on duty this morning. As you can see, the blood on his body has been sucked dry, and according to the staff in the museum, the deceased's name is Narin, a man, who is now forty years old. is also a staff member in the museum, but he was not on duty last night, but he died here, and the cause of death was excessive blood. ”
It's not too much, it's sucked clean!
Chu Qiao slandered in his heart, Nima's look is the handiwork of the blood clan, no wonder he would call himself and Yun Mo over.
"There were two holes in the neck of the deceased." Li Xiao pointed to the neck of the deceased that only had skin left, in fact, the two holes could not be seen clearly. But Li Xiao pointed at this, that is, he wanted to tell Chu Qiao that this was done by the blood clan.
However, there have been similar cases in the past, and the people above also know that the blood clan appeared in Yanjing, but they didn't set up a task force a few times before, why did they work so hard this time? I'm afraid, it's not as simple as just one person dying, right?
"You all know the cause of death, and you know the identity of the murderer." Chu Qiao raised his head and looked at Li Xiao, "You don't want me to catch the murderer, right?" Or do you suspect ......"
Is Li Xiao suspicious of Mosan? Mo Sang's existence, the people above knew about it and acquiesced, and for a while, Mo Sang had been staying in the Chu family villa, and there was also a fresh blood supply in the blood bank, Chu Qiao believed that this matter was definitely not done by Mo Sang.
"No, I didn't doubt him." Li Xiao hurriedly shook his head, he understood what Chu Qiao meant, "This matter is definitely not what he did." ”
"Then what are you doing with us?" Chu Qiao asked puzzledly, "Is there anything else?" ”
Li Xiao nodded and asked in a low voice, "Do you know where this is?" ”
Chu Qiao was asked by Li Xiao like this, and said a little inexplicably, "Where else could it be?" Isn't it an ancient palace? ”
"I'm talking here!" Li Xiao pointed to his feet.
"......" Chu Qiao suddenly felt that there was something wrong with his IQ, or was he not in the same dimension as Li Xiao? Senior Brother Li, what do you want to say? ”
"Hey! Look at the well! Li Xiao no longer sells Guanzi, "This well, Zhenfei Well!" ”
"Zhenfei Well?" Chu Qiao's attention just now had been on the corpse, and he really didn't notice the well, "Oh, it turns out that this is the famous Zhenfei Well?" ”
Speaking of Concubine Zhen, she is a very tragic woman. She is the woman that the emperor of the previous dynasty liked, and naturally suffered from the queen's jealousy, and the queen mother was on the queen's side, she could only end up being quiet, and finally, she was also ordered by the queen mother and thrown into this well.
"But what does Zhenfeijing have to do with this dead body?" Chu Qiao continued to look at Li Xiao shamelessly, "Could it be that you think that Concubine Zhen has returned her soul and came out to bite someone, so it's like this?" ”
Li Xiao was immediately choked by Chu Qiao's question.
"It's not...... That's not what you mean! After a long time, Li Xiao held back these words, then squatted down and broke the deceased's hand, which was a mirror of small sperm, "Look, what is this?" ”
"Mirror." Chu Qiao said very calmly.
"This is the mirror used by Concubine Zhen!" Li Xiao added very seriously.
"Well, it's the mirror used by Concubine Zhen, so what?" Chu Qiao was really speechless by Li Xiao, "Can't you speak directly?" Do you want me and Yun Mo to come over and guess the plot? We're not Conan, right? ”
------Off topic------
Melancholy, the cold has been up and down, it's been a month, I'm really speechless about my body, do you want to do this? Whining......
