After walking out of the bar, Ye Chen said to Lin Nian: "She is really your friend, it seems that the two of you are not that familiar." ”

Lin Nian said: "It's just an ordinary friend, how many times have I met, how many times have I chatted, how familiar can I be?" Having said that, how could she come here, I remember that she didn't ......" Lin Nian's voice became lower and lower, and finally it was almost inaudible, and Ye Chen didn't hear what she was muttering clearly.

Ye Chen said disapprerovingly: "Why do you want to do so much, people can come if they want to." ”

Lin Nian smiled and said, "That's right, okay, don't care about her, ...... tomorrow"

Seeing that Lin Nian was making plans for tomorrow, Ye Chen hurriedly stopped and looked at her with an expectant look.

Being watched by these big innocent eyes, Lin Nian felt quite interesting, paused for a while, and deliberately hung her appetite before saying, "Okay, I don't need you to accompany me tomorrow, really, you just threw me aside once I came." ”

"No, it's not." Ye Chen hurriedly explained, "You came too suddenly, and I didn't have time to make arrangements, it only takes two days for me to arrange things in the store, and then I'll be with you all the time, for as long as I want, okay?" ”

Seeing Ye Chen's anxious look, Lin Nian patted her shoulder and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm not angry, you don't have to make any arrangements, I guess it will be busy for a long time." ”

Ye Chen relieved himself and said, "That's it, but remember to tell me when you're almost done, I need to find someone to help me take a look at the store." ”

Lin Nian agreed: "Okay, no problem." ”

The apartment rented by Ye Chen was very small, only one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom, there was no extra room at all, Lin Nian originally planned to go to the hotel to live for a while, but Ye Chen resolutely disagreed, his friend came from afar, how could he live in a hotel, under her "forced to die", Lin Nian finally agreed to stay. For this reason, Ye Chen built a bed in the living room, anyway, she didn't know many people here, and there were usually no visitors, the two argued, and in the end Lin Nian lived in the living room.

In the next few days, Lin Nian had been going out early and returning late, looking very busy, although Ye Chen was a little curious, he didn't ask too much. Obviously, what Lin Nian wanted to do was not very smooth, and it was originally true, a child who had no social relations and was in a state of wandering suddenly disappeared, and there was almost no focus on it, and it was impossible to find him. In addition, Ye Chen didn't really want to care about this matter, in her opinion, this disappearance case has no similarity with Lin Nian's experience at all, there is no value in investigating this kind of disappearance, Ye Chen would persuade a few words before, but later, she also understood a little, Lin Nian didn't expect to find the murderer of her sister through this method, she was just unwilling, she thought that if she let go completely, it would be a betrayal of Lin Lian, or that deep in her heart, she had been blaming herself, thinks that it was because of her own negligence and lack of care for her sister that she died so painfully.

It is based on this psychology that Ye Chen often looks at Lin Nian with a strange look (sad and compassionate), but he doesn't know how to comfort her, or what Lin Nian needs is not comfort, but support, to support her to continue to persist. (This is an important statement.) ）

Lin Nian was busy for more than a week, Ye Chen finally couldn't stand it anymore, and insisted on pulling her to go shopping, in her words, "Go out to breathe, you can't be pressed by work all the time." Lin Nian couldn't resist her, so he had to go out with him.

This time, Ye Chen did not take Lin Nian to any commercial center, but came to a place called Wayao Street.

Wayao Street is not big, only less than a kilometer long, it is a relatively old block, there are no high-rise buildings on both sides of the road, generally it is a small building of two or three floors, the wall is mottled, full of traces of time, very vicissitudes. It's just that there is no quiet and distant town here, on the contrary, it is very lively, in addition to the storefronts on the side of the road, you can see a stall every few meters, and the things sold are even more messy, and quite distinctive, not far from her right, someone is selling some roots, with a lot of mud, she began to think that this is wild ginseng, but it doesn't look like the shape, next to him is a jade seller, and then it is a calligraphy and painting seller.

Lin Nian asked, "What kind of place is this, why did you bring me here?" ”

Ye Chen looked at the things on the stall with great interest, and said: "This is the distribution center of cultural entertainment in this city, similar to Liulichang, Panjiayuan and the like, I like to wander around here when I have nothing to do, maybe I can find good things." ”

Lin Nian shook his head and said, "You expect to pick up leaks in this kind of place?" That's too unlikely, isn't it? ”

Ye Chen said: "I didn't say that I missed it, I can't meet any treasures and ancient books, but I can also find what I like, besides, there are really not many antiques sold here, this street is more similar to an art distribution center, I heard that some students who study painting in the university town will come here to sell their paintings." ”

Seeing that Lin Nian still looked indifferent, Ye Chen pulled her and said, "Let's go, you will like it here, there are many interesting things here." ”

Lin Nian was dragged around by Ye Chen, almost every stall Ye Chen would stop to take a look, and sometimes she would play with it and bargain, although she didn't usually buy it, but she still enjoyed it.

After walking for most of the street, Ye Chen finally became really interested in something, she pointed to the short knife on the stall that was more than half a foot long, and asked, "Boss, how can this be sold?" ”

The boss is a thin man in his forties, his eyes are rolling around, he doesn't look like a good person, and when he saw Ye Chen ask, he immediately said: "This is good eyesight, do you know the little girl?" This is a peerless divine weapon, it is made from the iron of Shouyang......"

Lin Nian couldn't listen to it anymore before she finished speaking, and she said, "Boss, there is copper on Shouyang Mountain, not iron. ”

was so accused, the boss was not afraid at all, he said: "Little girl, there is not only copper on Shouyang Mountain, but also iron miles!" ”

Lin Nian defended: "How is it possible? ”

The boss looked "sincere" and said: "How is it impossible, who stipulates that there can be no iron on Shouyang Mountain?" ”

Well, Lin Nian completely admitted defeat, she didn't expect that she would meet such a "master".

Seeing that Lin Nian was "persuaded", the boss continued to sell: "Girl, the skin wrapped around this knife is even bigger, I've heard of the nine-colored deer, it was ...... back then, then it ......, and finally it ......" said a lot of words, and the last sentence: "This scabbard is made of its skin." After saying that, the boss smashed his mouth, looking unfinished.

The two girls froze there, stopping for almost a minute, Lin Nian pulled Ye Chen and walked out, and said as he walked: "Chen, let's go, don't bully people like this, we are really stupid." ”

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen broke free of Lin Nian, bit his lip and thought for a while, and said, "Boss, I bought it, how much does it cost?" ”

The boss laughed and said: "Little girl, I am destined to be a person with you, and the divine soldiers are priceless, but the Buddha still asks for offerings, and we can't avoid vulgarity, so let's do it, nine hundred and ninety-nine." Seeing that Ye Chen's face was a little embarrassed, the boss hurriedly continued: "Of course, this is the original price, I see that your eyebrows are clear and beautiful, and your bones are surprised, give a discount, take it at ninety-nine, how about it?" ”

Ye Chen stretched out two fingers and said, "Twenty." ”

The boss almost didn't jump up, and said: "Little girl, be kind, don't bring this, eighty-one, ninety-nine to one, auspicious." ”

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "Twenty-four, corresponding to the twelve festivals of a year, twelve qi, is also quite auspicious." ”

Lin Nian watched Ye Chen and the stall owner bargaining fiercely there, dumbfounded and speechless.

PS: The Yellow Emperor mined the copper of Shouyang Mountain and cast it under Jing Mountain.
