29. Transaction III
I opened my mouth wide and gestured with my hands and feet to show how stupid the question she was asking.
Once the deal is made, the space and time will become synchronized, that is, I can't go anywhere else, this is to ensure fairness to the contractor.
But this dead girl actually dislikes me for causing trouble, which is really infuriating. I snatched the chocolate and said, "I see you're in good spirits, you don't need to eat it." ”
After speaking, I finished eating it in two bites by myself, and threw away the wrapping paper in a chic manner.
She gave me a look of 'I wasn't going to eat this weird thing' and didn't say anything more.
The mountain road was much closer than it looked, probably because Chang Xi's footsteps were in a hurry, and he soon reached the top of the mountain. I held my knees and gasped, threw my heels away, and rubbed my aching ankles vigorously.
And Chang Xi also had a layer of sweat on her face, she wiped her forehead, but she didn't realize that while wiping the sweat with her sleeve, she also wiped off a piece of the dirty dust on her face.
"It's weird......"
In front of Chang Xi and I was a row of very large doorposts with weapons inserted to prevent outsiders from entering. Chang Xi swayed back and forth around the doorpost, and then looked closely at the carved patterns on the doorpost.
"What's so strange?"
"Do thieves carve totems on the doorposts, and these totems don't look like they are used by big men......" She touched the burden she was carrying, and her eyebrows tightened deeper: "It doesn't look like money here." ”
I rolled up my sleeves and looked at her with hatred: "Do you feel strange now?" They should not have been promised a long time ago. ”
Chang Xi didn't answer me, because there was some movement on the side of the mountain path, it should be Liu Zhang and they were hiding there to observe secretly, and I also closed my mouth.
Chang Xi did as Liu Zhang said, she knocked on the doorpost, and her skeletal hand slapped on the pillar at once, and the sound was particularly crisp at night.
The loud creaking of the doorpost made Chang Xi tremble. The doorpost was pushed open from the inside, revealing a narrow avenue, and when you look out, you can't figure out what is going on inside.
The doorpost was not fully opened, only a strong man with long and messy hair came out, and he could only see his round eyes and atmospheric nostrils, and he walked slowly with a large scimitar, and his waist, which was not covered by clothes, showed a circle of flesh, and he also jolted with his steps.
Compared to him, Chang Xi, who is emaciated, is like a chick to be slaughtered. Chang Xi tilted his head, most of the moonlight around him was blocked by this person, and his hand holding the burden trembled a little uncontrollably: "I brought something." ”
The old man with his eyebrows raised was high, and he grabbed it viciously, so frightened that Chang Xi quickly withdrew his hand, but his face was calmer, and asked, "Can you release people now?" ”
The strong man did not answer her, but reached out and rudely tossed his baggage, and then took something out of it, and he looked at it carefully in the moonlight.
"Kabubi Kei!"
Chang Xi recognized this thing at a glance, and in order to hide her shock, she covered her mouth and did not shout out loud.
I said "oh", this is a token of the last dynasty held by high-ranking officials, although these treasures are not priceless, they represent the prestige of the imperial court. When I looked at Chang Xi again, she was standing there motionless like a zombie, but I am afraid that my heart had already turned a thousand times.
What an important object, how could a thief not want gold, silver, and jewelry? And, how did they get it?
