Chapter 214: Pretending to be a Pig and Eating a Tiger (Part I)

"'Moonshadow Lantern'?!"

When they heard Mu Lao's exclamation, Yi Yang and Bai Wenchao were surprised in unison.

The first time Yi Yang heard this "name", it was very beautiful and appropriate, because the effect of the lamp was indeed like this, and there was a moon shadow on it.

"Yes, it's the Moon Shadow Lantern!" Mu Lao nodded heavily, and said in an excited tone, "But I've only seen this kind of lamp in my book before, and I've never seen it before!" When I saw it today, it was really an eye-opener! ”

Yi Yang said happily: "Mu Lao, what is the origin of the moon shadow lamp?" ”

Mu Lao replied fifteen-ten: "The moon shadow lantern is a kind of palace lantern, but it is not an ordinary palace lantern, it is a kind of 'play lantern', used to appreciate, you also know, in ancient times, unlike now, there was no entertainment at that time, so I had to think of other ways, this kind of moon shadow lantern is very ornamental, it is a treasure in the palace." ”

"I see." Yi Yang nodded and said, "I'll just say, this lamp is not an ordinary lantern in ancient times, there is something special." ”

Bai Wenchao was puzzled: "Mu Lao, how did this effect work?" You see, the shadows on the wall can change alternately, unpredictable, very magical! ”

Mu Lao said: "You should know the" marquee ', this is actually similar to our common marquee, the patch on the lampshade is painted with exquisite pictures, after turning on the lamp in a specific situation, the use of air convection, so that the patch picture rotates, forming the effect of landscape changes, and there is the moon shadow wonder we see now." ”

"Well, that's how it works!" Yi Yang exclaimed loudly, "The wisdom of the ancients is really high, it is so powerful, it can make such a magical lamp!" ”

Mu Lao nodded and said: "Yes, the wisdom of our ancestors can be seen, this kind of 'moon shadow lamp' is extremely rare, it's not that later people don't do it, but the superb skills of painting on the patch have been completely lost, so your pair of old lamps may be a unique product, precious!" ”

"Really?" Yi Yang said happily.

After listening to Mu Lao's explanation, Yi Yang was very happy, and now he has a clear understanding in his heart.

"Yes!" Mu Lao nodded vigorously and said, "According to ancient records, the moon shadow lamp first appeared in the Sui Dynasty, it was invented during the period of Emperor Yang of Sui, when Emperor Yang of Sui conquered the world, once he led his troops to fight, all the way to the west and even West Asia, and those places are very barren, sparsely populated, at night the surroundings are particularly deserted, Emperor Yang of Sui felt very lonely, so he ordered someone to make a pair of moon shadow lamps, the lamp is painted with the moon, the palace maid, as soon as the lamp is turned on, you can see the shadow of the palace maid dancing in the moonlight, for him to eliminate a moment of loneliness, and then he returned to the dynasty with a great victory, After returning to the palace, there are countless palace maids there, and the moon shadow lantern is no longer needed. The moon shadow lantern is also called the lonely lamp later, and it is said that it still exists in the Jiangdu and Taixing coral areas of Jiangsu, but that is just a legend, except for you, I have not seen anything else. ”

"So there's such a story? What a long insight! Yi Yang couldn't help but sigh.

Bai Wenchao suddenly asked: "Mu Lao, since it is a unique product, is it very valuable?" In your opinion, how much is this pair of ancient lamps worth? ”

Mu Lao shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, I don't know, because there is no set price for this." Xiao Yi, how much did you spend when you received it from that family? ”

Yi Yang replied truthfully: "The owner of the lamp originally did not plan to sell, it is the ancestral treasure of their family, I heard them say that someone from the auction company has approached them, and the estimated transaction price is about 500,000, in order to buy it smoothly, I gave them an extra 100,000, that is, 600,000 to take it down, there is no loss, right?" ”

"No, it's not a loss at all." Mu Lao hurriedly shook his head and said, "This price is very fair, 600,000, it should be said that you have made a lot of money!" ”

Yi Yang was relieved: "That's good, just don't lose anything." ”

Bai Wenchao smiled bitterly: "I thought that Brother Yi Yang was expensive to buy before, if I had known that this lamp was so magical, then I wouldn't have thought so much if he paid a million." Hey, people are really angry compared to people, I didn't see anything when I found this pair of lamps together, but Brother Yi Yang saw that the name was coming, and he saw it so deeply. ”

Mu Lao said with a smile: "So Xiao Chao, you have to learn more from Xiao Yi, you see that he has repeatedly picked up good things here in the capital this time, and you haven't found anything." ”

"Hehe, I know, I've been learning from him." Bai Wenchao smirked and scratched the back of his head, looking very embarrassed.

Yi Yang said: "Xiao Chao has worked hard, and I believe he will get better and better in the future." ”

With that, they turned to look at the pair of moonshadow lanterns and continued to admire and discuss.

After finalizing this, Yi Yang and Bai Wenchao walked out of the room and went to the restaurant to eat together.

After eating, Yi Yang took Bai Wenchao back to the room.

"Brother Yi Yang, what should I do next?" Bai Wenchao suddenly asked.

"What to do and how?" Yi Yang asked casually.

Bai Wenchao said: "You went to Mr. Hong and them in the morning, didn't you go to find out the news of that treasure?" ”

"Well, yes." Yi Yang nodded and replied, "All the questions that should be asked, although I didn't ask the specific situation, but at least one thing is certain, that is, the Hong family has indeed buried a batch of treasures within the capital, and those treasures are the antique treasures of their ancestors." ”

"Well, that's what I thought of too." Bai Wenchao nodded and said, "Then when are we going to look for it?" You're going to find it, right? ”

Yi Yang nodded without hesitation and said: "Since we have obtained the treasure map, we naturally have to look for it, instead of being buried in the ground and wasted, it is better to take it out and share it together, I think the ancestors of the Hong family will not blame us." ”

Bai Wenchao said: "Well, it shouldn't be. I think the antiques buried on the ancestors of the Hong family must be treasures, all of which are worth a lot of money and are worth exploring. ”

"yes, that's what I thought." Yi Yang said categorically, "Xiaochao, without further ado, let's go, let's go and explore first." ”

"Well, okay, I'll go with you." Bai Wenchao nodded in agreement without thinking.

After discussing, Yi Yang and Bai Wenchao walked out of the room, got out of the hotel, and then took a taxi on the side of the road and rushed straight to the east of the city.

From that treasure map, Yi Yang can know that the treasures of the Hong family are hidden in the four directions around the capital, that is, the southeast, the northwest, although there is a huge Beijing city, and it is impractical to find out the treasures from these four directions, which is equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack, but Yi Yang has a treasure map in hand, and he has asked some information from Hong Laoer's mouth, according to the known details, and then on the spot, it is not impossible to find the place where the treasure is buried.

About an hour later, Yi Yang's car drove out of the city, and after arriving at the suburbs, Yi Yang asked the company to stop the car, and then took Bai Wenchao out of the car.

When they walked down, they didn't notice that a black Honda sedan had also stopped, leaning against the side of the road not far behind.

Through the window, it can be seen that there are four people sitting in the car, all of whom are young men.

One of them, a middle-aged bald man sitting in the passenger seat, was talking on the phone, his voice low down.

"Mr. Qi, we have followed them out of the city." The man said respectfully to the hand.

"That's good, let's see if I'll do it." I only heard a gloomy old man's voice on the other end of the phone.

"Got it, Mr. Qi!" The man nodded repeatedly.

The old man sneered on the phone: "I didn't expect such a good thing, since they are out of the city, it will be easier to deal with." Let's just teach them a lesson first, and see if they dare to be arrogant in front of me! ”

"Understood!" The bald man obeyed.

He then said goodbye and hung up the phone, and told the other three that they were ready to act.

In this room, Yi Yang and Bai Wenchao were fine, how did they know that someone had been following them.

"Brother Yi Yang, did you see something from that map?" Bai Wenchao asked, "Is this a place to bury treasures in the east?" ”

Yi Yang nodded and said, "According to the instructions, one of the burial sites should be near here. Xiaochao, don't worry, let's go first and see if there will be any discoveries. ”

"Well, let's go." Bai Wen is super good at responding.

Then the two of them took a step forward and walked unhurriedly.

Although the treasure is buried in the ground, it cannot be found unless it is a three-foot digging in the ground, and it is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack without knowing exactly where the treasure is buried.

However, this situation is not a big problem in Yi Yang's opinion, he doesn't have to dig around to find it, because he has a magical right eye, and the right eye has the magical ability to sense the aura of antiques, as long as there are zĂ i antiques under the foot of the place where he walks, he should be able to sense it, just like the last time they were in Dragon Bone Mountain, the Beijing human bone fossil hidden in the soil under the road was found like that.

Therefore, Yi Yang is still very confident, unless the treasure map is fake, or the thing is buried too deeply, but these two situations are unlikely.

The two of them were walking forward in a hurry, when suddenly, they heard a rush and chaotic footsteps behind them.

At that moment, Yi Yang and Bai Wenchao both subconsciously turned their heads to look.

I didn't look at it, I was taken aback, and I saw four or five young men walking over quickly, all of them looking menacing.

"Not good! Someone could have found out! ”

Seeing this, Yi Yang's brows couldn't help frowning tightly, and then a sense of foreboding came to his heart.

But he was still calm on the surface, facing the sudden change.
