Chapter 35 Getting to the bottom of it
"Help.......
There was a low moan from the little eunuch.
Geng Chaozhong ignored him and dragged him to the door of Boya Zhai outside the Liuli Factory.
Boss Qiu is dead, Boya Zhai has become a dead land, and the guys have already dispersed, no one should come here in a short time, Geng Chaozhong kicked open the door and walked into the inner hall of Boya Zhai.
In the dark night sky, lightning flashed from time to time, and Geng Chaozhong put the little eunuch on the ground and looked at his injuries.
The shot pierced the quilt, first through the little eunuch's arm, and then into his chest.
Although it has been blocked twice, the power of the bullet is still huge, and the little eunuch at this time is already dying, and Geng Chaozhong understands that he is hopeless.
At least, in the current medical conditions, there is no salvation.
"Help.......
The little eunuch said these two words again - this is just a return to the light, Geng Chaozhong is a little nervous, he must ask for clues as quickly as possible.
"I can save you, but you have to tell me where the old guy put the artifact." Geng Chaozhong spoke quickly, staring at the little eunuch's eyes tightly.
It was a young man of only twenty years of age, perhaps not yet twenty years old, with a very pale face and a peculiar softness in his eyes.
"I don't know......." the little eunuch's lips trembled slightly.
"Where Old Man Jin often goes, there must be such a place." Geng Chaozhong changed his way of questioning.
"Am I going to die?" The little eunuch didn't seem to hear Geng Chaozhong's words at all.
"No," Geng Chaozhong looked at the little eunuch with a firm gaze, "As long as you tell me, I will definitely not die." ”
The little eunuch's eyes showed a strange look, and he seemed to have recovered a little bit of vitality, he stared at Geng Chaozhong deadly, and a faint voice came out of his mouth:
"Defu Yuan, Gu.... Ancient ....."
The little eunuch's neck crooked and he swallowed.
"In the next life, let's have a good baby!"
Geng Chaozhong stretched out his hand and gently brushed the little eunuch's eyes.
Under the cavity effect, if you are hit by a gun, the important parts will be killed immediately, and the non-important parts will be crippled immediately...... time.
The little eunuch can say these words, which is already a miracle of will created by the endangered instinct!
Defu Yuan antique shop!
On this Liulichang street, there is indeed an antique shop named Defuyuan, and when I came to Liulichang to step on it, I had a vague impression.
Geng Chaozhong stood up, walked out of the door of Bona Zhai quickly, and began to look for the antique shop named Defuyuan along the street of Liulichang.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the lights have been lit in the peace gate opposite, it should be that some eunuchs have noticed something unusual, but there is nothing too abnormal, it seems that the Japanese have not arranged a secret post here, or, after the completion of the task, have removed the dark post arranged here.
Geng Chaozhong's whole body was already soaked, but he didn't care about this, but according to his memory, he searched one by one along the street of Liulichang.
After the abdication of the throne, according to the new government's "Regulations on Abdication and Preferential Treatment", the abolition of the emperor should not and should not be allowed to retain the wonders of the old society, so the Jin eunuch and many eunuchs stayed near the Forbidden City, which became one of the biggest historical problems in Beiping.
In fact, the eunuch who has a way has already accepted his son and has an estate nearby, and according to the status of the golden eunuch, he will not and should not remain in the palace and live in that row of dilapidated houses.
However, now Geng Chaozhong understands that he naturally has some kind of mission when he stays - to return the remaining cultural relics of the Forbidden City to the hands of the royal family.
To accomplish this mission, it is natural to need the cooperation of many people, and the antique shop is naturally the best choice.
The daily business of antique shops is to sell and buy antiques, but also to sell some imitations, and some large antique shops will even engage in services such as wholesale one-stop, selling all kinds of genuine fakes to all parts of the country.
And Liulichang Street is the largest antique market in Beiping and even the whole of northern China, and transporting antiques back to Fengtian through this channel should be all the plans of the Jin eunuchs.
The glaze factory is not small, and finally, when he walked to the street, Geng Chaozhong finally saw a storefront with a gold-lettered signboard that read "Defu Yuan Antique".
The inside of the store was pitch black, and there seemed to be no movement, but Geng Chaozhong knew that there was usually a guy guarding the storefront living in the back hall of the store.
After thinking about it, Geng Chaozhong went around to the backyard of the store.
The front shop and the back factory, this is the standard configuration of all antique shops, and in the courtyard at the back, there will be some imitation of antiquities to make a living, but as soon as Geng Chaozhong walked to the door of the backyard, there were bursts of dog barking inside.
It's a bit of a hassle.
At this time, ordinary houses, although there were no anti-theft doors or the like, generally raised dogs, and it has to be said that this primitive method was extremely effective, at least, the dogs in the yard had found Geng Chaozhong.
But Geng Chaozhong didn't back down - dogs have the benefits of dogs, but dogs also have weaknesses of dogs, at least, in thunderstorms, dogs will also bark for no reason.
The dog in the yard kept barking, but Geng Chaozhong just stood quietly at the door, no matter how the dog in the yard barked, he still didn't move.
"Crazy? What are you barking in the middle of the night?! ”
Finally, the lights were lit in the courtyard, and a man walked out wearing a robe and scolding.
The dogs in the yard still barked wildly, followed by a "squeak" sound, obviously, the man in the yard was beating the dogs, but the dogs were very persistent, still barking unmoved.
"What's the matter? So troublesome? ”
Another voice came from the courtyard, and Geng Chaozhong's expression was grim.
The voice is sharp, and he is a eunuch again!
"Dad, it's okay, the thunder startled the dog, and it will be fine in a while." The man in the courtyard replied.
"Alas, this weather is really unsettling!" The sharp voice came again.
It seems that the man in the courtyard is the righteous son of the eunuch.
Eunuchs have received sons since ancient times, such as Wei Zhongxian, the great eunuch at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were countless righteous sons, including even many ministers of the court, and even Cao Cao was a eunuch - eunuchs are also people, and they also look forward to keeping their roots.
"No matter, I guess it's good if the rain stops."
The son agreed, left the dogs alone, and walked back into the house.
Geng Chaozhong smiled, turned over and jumped into the wall, and walked quickly to the front of the house.
Fighting dogs, Geng Chaozhong had a lot of experience, raised the butt of the gun one by one, and in a blink of an eye, the three dogs were lying in the yard on all fours.
"Who?!" The people in the room finally noticed the anomaly.
"It's me!"
With a click, Geng Chaozhong kicked open the door and broke into the house.
