"Why should I answer?" He asked rhetorically.

"Just because you value that painting and that Yang Lingyi very much." I almost blurted out that I was kicked out this time, and whether I can come in next time is a question, "I just want to ask, is that place in the painting really exists, where is the Yang Lingyi who painted this painting?" ”

The room was silent all of a sudden, and the guys who came in to catch us were all stunned, ready to look at Old Man Xiao's eyes. The old man was silent for a long time, and he couldn't see what his expression was, or he didn't care about the content of the painting and the painter Yang Lingyi, maybe I guessed wrong.

"Come down, all of you." After a long time, the old man sighed, beckoned to us, and asked us to sit down, the old man must know something: "Why do you want to inquire about the place in the painting?" ”

Sue him I dreamed of going to that ghost place for three years? Or do you want to find the answer to him somewhere?

"That place...... I seem to know. ”

When the words came to their mouths, they became like this. I really want to smack myself in the mouth, you know? Why do you come to him to ask him?!

This time, Gu Fei didn't say anything on the side, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"You know? How, you've been? ”

"Maybe."

"Then how do you know, old man, I must have the answer you want?"

I smiled, "I'm not sure you have the answer I'm looking for, but at least, you know something I don't know."

He shook his head, his voice was a little old, and he glanced at me: "You are wrong, I really don't know anything, I am just entrusted by someone to guard that painting."

"The old man doesn't know anything, so he guards a painting for others, which is really generous." Gu Fei's words revealed distrust.

The old man glanced at him and did not speak.

The atmosphere in the room was extremely bad, I pushed Gu Fei, but he didn't look at me, he kept staring at the old man, as if he wanted to see him through.

I gritted my teeth, TNND, who are they all showing in an unfathomable look? What the fuck is there a psychological war?

"Since the old man has no intention of selling that painting, but he puts it out again, there is always a reason. So who is this trying to get its attention? ”

I don't want to spend it like this anymore, it looks like I'm going to be blasted out sooner or later, and if that's the case, it's better to come directly.

The old man raised his eyes and glared at me, I trembled slightly, I couldn't help admiring, obviously an old man, his aura is still so strong.

"I'm just looking for my answers." I pinched my thigh to calm myself down.

After a long time, the old man got up and opened the secret compartment in front of us, took out the painting, looked at us dumbfounded, and said, "The one you see is a fake made by someone I found someone, and this is the real thing."

I thought to myself, is there a difference? It's not the same content yet.

He handed me the painting: "Yang Lingyi is right?" You have to remember that this painting must not be taken by anyone else, and as for the answer you want, it may be in it, or there may be no answer at all. ”

I held the painting and felt inexplicably heavy, I don't know if it was the psychological effect or the texture of the frame, this painting ...... It's really heavy.

When I was leaving, I heard the old man behind him still muttering something...... It's like talking to yourself.

Actually, I also want to say, can you give me that fake as well, Gu Fei is also good with his uncle.

"What are you going to do?"

"What are you going to do?" Gu Fei smoked every time he was upset, and he didn't know how many he had smoked along the way.

I didn't speak, and the old man said let me put the painting away, and the answer was in this. Then until I find the answer, I won't let go, Gu Fei won't know my temper, once I get serious, ten cows won't be able to pull it back.

"What else can I do? You can't steal your paintings and kill you, right? ”

I swallowed my saliva, looked at the darkness around me, remembered his yin look in the old man, touched my neck, and was really a little scared.

He pinched his cigarette, put it on my shoulder, and resumed his usual hanging: "What do you want? It turns out that Lingyi-san is so afraid of me! Looks like it's time to take you! ”

I reflexively pushed him with my elbow: "You're itchy on the bone, aren't you?!"

It's late now, and it's not realistic to ask Lao Li to come and pick us up now, but fortunately, I had the foresight to let Lao Li go and book a nearby hotel.

"You're not really going to look for a place in the painting, are you?" When I got back to the hotel, I kept closing myself in my room and staring at the painting. Gu Fei pulled down my hand, "How old are you, and you still bite your fingernails." ”

I nodded, I'm sure I'm going to look for this place, if not, then forget it, if there is, I'll really have to go and see it.

"Since the painting is already with me, I have no reason to give up so early."

"Lingyi ......" Gu Fei was a little hesitant, "Actually, sometimes, it is better to know what is better than it." ”

I vaguely felt that something was wrong with Gu Fei, since his uncle let him get in touch with this painting, sometimes it was like a different person. This feeling really makes me feel uncomfortable......

"That's all for later, have you ever met someone who was looking for an answer and gave up in the first place?"

Gu Fei didn't say anything more, said goodnight, and went back to his room.

I've got the painting, but what's next? Where can the answer be hidden? Turned off the lights and lay on the bed, stared at the ceiling with wide eyes, turned over and couldn't sleep, Beijing and his party, in general, were really unexpectedly smooth......

I didn't sleep well all night, and when Lao Li came, he got up in a hurry, hastily cleaned up and got into the car. I was groggy and fell asleep in the car, seeing that I was very sleepy, Gu Fei didn't bother me, and quietly played 2048 on the side. I don't know what's fun about this game, but Gu Fei seems to like it very much. From my point of view, it's not bad to pass the time.

Within a few minutes, I fell asleep, although it was in a dream, but my brain was indeed surprisingly awake, after all, it had been three years, even if I was asleep, I knew that it was just a dream.

In the dream, I climbed into it from a narrow stone door, or more like a hole in the ground, and as soon as I turned around, the road was sealed, and the light in the hole was insufficient, but I could also see that there was a dark green scene in front of me, a deep pool of water, and a cluster of crystalline jadeite on the side, in addition to dark green or dark green, after staying for a long time, there was an inexplicable irritability that forced my heart, as if something was pressing on my chest, and I was about to suffocate. But even if you try your best to find an exit, it is like a dead hole, and there is no way out.

At this time, Gu Fei woke me up: "It's here."

When I opened my eyes, I woke up, and my rapid breathing slowly stabilized. In fact, even if Gu Fei doesn't push me, I should wake up, for three years, this dream has been so inexplicable, there is no above, and there is no follow-up. Every time I dream of this, I should wake up.

Gu Fei's gaze stayed on me for a while, but he left without saying anything.

After a few more days in Beijing, I insisted on finding the answer in the painting, but Gu Fei didn't persuade me again. Since the painting was in my hands, he couldn't go back to Zhejiang to report to his uncle, so he went back to Jiangsu with me.

When I went back, I called home first, and I haven't been in touch with them much in the past few days. I chatted with my parents for a while, talked about the current situation, and told them not to worry, I'm fine here.

That night, I slept surprisingly well, I didn't dream of anything, I woke up, it was almost 10 o'clock, I opened my phone and found that there was a number that called me more than a dozen times in the morning, I thought, who is so anxious to find me?

I pressed the call back button, and there was a woman on the other end of the phone, and her voice was somewhat familiar. I was still thinking about how to ask her who she was, so she said, "Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Xiao Xiao, the organizer of the previous exhibition, we had a relationship, Mr. Yang remembers?"

I wondered how she knew my number and what was the matter with calling me. Do you know that the painting in her hand is a fake, and that I have begged for the real thing from her grandfather?

I trembled in my heart, and then calmed down, I didn't steal or rob, what were I afraid of her? I also followed her politely and said, "I don't know what Miss Xiao is looking for me?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and it took a long time to say, "I don't know if Mr. Yang is inconvenient in the afternoon, I want to talk to Mr. Yang in person."

I still want to shirk it.

"I will send someone to pick you up at Mr. Yang's house, and your friend Mr. Gu will also come."

I cursed in my heart, why are you asking for my opinion? It's just catching ducks on the shelves! It's all forced to the doorstep, can I still not go?

hung up the phone, thinking about it, it's only been a few days since the painting was made, wouldn't it be that the old man regretted giving me the painting, so he wanted Xiao Xiao to go back for him? This can't be done, how can there be any reason to return what you have in hand? I'm afraid that my front foot will be taken to see Xiao Xiao, and someone will scavenge the painting from my house on the back foot.

I wondered where I could hide my paintings. Under the bed? Safe? Or did you remove the frame and put the picture in the book? **！ How can I feel like I'm hiding money?

I fixed my eyes on the desk, and I compared the indented piece under the drawer of the desk, which was about the size of a painting, and at first glance I couldn't see that there was a hidden painting. So I barely got under the desk, taped the drawing under the drawer, and when I came out, just as the doorbell rang, I was in a hurry, and my head hit out of a bag, and I grinned in pain, and rubbed my head as I went to open the door. Didn't TMD say that it was afternoon, what time was it, so what would you do?

I wanted to scold when I opened the door, but I found that it was Gu Fei who was smiling and smiling at the door. I'm even more angry, won't you be able to see you in the afternoon, why are you looking for me at this time?

I punched over, but he dodged and pounced, and he took the opportunity to enter the house: "I said Lingyi, I'm here, you're so 'enthusiastic', I can't afford to parry!" I glared at him, rubbed my head, and slammed the door to follow.
