After everyone finished eating, Li Chengran first sent Li Mo back to the villa where he lived, and then drove back to his apartment with Xin Yifan and Ye Zilan.

The father and daughter of the Li family are also very strange in Xin Yifan's eyes, Li Mo is an old man who doesn't live with his daughter, he lives in a villa alone, and he usually hires a nanny to take care of his own life, Li Chengran is too, he lives in such a big duplex house alone, and he doesn't go to live with his father, the two of them are really a waste of housing area, it seems that the world of rich people is really not understood by ordinary people.

Although Xin Yifan thought so, Xin Yifan felt that Li Chengran's mood was a little low from the beginning of the meal, and it started when Li Mo mentioned Li Chengran's mother, maybe they had something to hide, as an outsider, Xin Yifan was not easy to ask anything.

When I returned to Li Chengran's apartment, it was almost 11 o'clock in the evening, and Li Chengran said that he was a little tired and went back to his room to rest, and then Ye Zilan mysteriously walked up to Xin Yifan and whispered: "Brother, have you noticed that Sister Chengran doesn't seem to be very happy all night tonight." ”

Xin Yifan said in his heart, it seems that this girl is not too stupid, so he said: "Mmmm, then why do you say it? I don't want to ask too much about your girls." ”

"Are you stupid, just now the teacher mentioned Sister Chengran's mother, and Sister Chengran was a little unhappy. Ye Zilan looked at Xin Yifan with disdain and said.

I didn't expect this girl to observe really carefully, yes, the child can be taught, but Xin Yifan is strange, why did Li Mo mention that Li Chengran's mother would make Li Chengran depressed, Li Mo wouldn't not know, and he talked to himself so much and drank a lot of wine, didn't he notice his daughter's abnormality, and then Xin Yifan asked Ye Zilan again: "Xiaolan, during the time you came, did Uncle Mo and Chengran mention to you about Chengran's mother?"

Ye Zilan shook her head and said, "No, I never mentioned it, brother, do you think I should ask Sister Chengran?"

"Don't, it's better not to ask, haven't you seen how she looks today, Uncle Mo just mentioned it in passing, and she was depressed all night, if it was really a wound that others didn't want to uncover, wouldn't it make others more sad if they asked. Xin Yifan said.

"Oh, too. Ye Zilan was also sensible, "Okay, let's go and rest." Xin Yifan saw that the time was not early, so he urged Ye Zilan to go to sleep.

After Xin Yifan returned to his room, he took out the holy bone borrowed from the Li family's father and daughter, and looked at it carefully, when he focused all his spirit on this bone, he found that the runes outside the bones began to jump, and at the same time, the red and blue filaments inside also began to rotate, and the frequency of rotation was faintly consistent with the frequency of the fluctuation of the lines formed by the runes outside.

Just as Xin Yifan was looking at it, the silk thread inside was turning faster and faster, turning purple, and emitting electric light from inside the holy bone and shooting into Xin Yifan's eyes, "Oh no!" Xin Yifan said in his heart, and then he felt that his brain was hit by a huge electric current, and his whole body couldn't move, and the electric light began to keep drilling out of the holy bone and shooting into Xin Yifan's eyes and then into his brain, Xin Yifan's feeling was the same as the first time he touched the holy bone, and he only felt the same pain as his brain was about to explode, and then fainted again.

When he woke up, it was already the next morning, Li Chengran and Ye Zilan looked at him anxiously, especially Ye Zilan, who didn't know the situation, saw that Xin Yifan was awake, and asked repeatedly: "Brother, are you okay, you scared us, no matter how you call it, we can't wake you up, if you don't wake up again, we will decide to send you to the hospital, how do you feel now?"

"Yifan, how are you feeling now" Li Chengran also asked with concern.

Xin Yifan sat up, shook his head, and said to them: "I'm fine, I'm really sorry, let you worry, don't worry, I'm fine, maybe I slept too late last night, I've been sleepy since I recovered, Xiaolan, don't worry about you." ”

Ye Zilan thought about it, last time Xin Yifan slept at home for a day and a night, and once he fell asleep on the ground, it was Chen Xia who woke him up for a long time, this time it was very similar to the situation last time, but it was always like this, which was quite worrying, so she said: "Brother, it's not the first time you've been like this, don't blame me for being verbose, last time our mother asked you to check it, why don't you check it again?"

Xin Yifan heard Ye Zilan's tone the same as her mother's, so she said: "Ouch, I said my stupid girl, why did you forget, didn't you listen to your mother's words and went to the hospital last time, didn't you check out anything, okay, okay, don't worry, don't you go to the store today?"

Li Chengran said at this time: "Oh, it doesn't matter, it's good to see that you're okay, I already called the store just now, and besides, my dad should be there today, Yifan, are you really okay?"

Xin Yifan said helplessly in his heart: "It's really okay, don't worry, I'm most afraid of death, you see." After that, Xin Yifan got out of bed, walked a few laps in front of them, and said as he walked: "Look, it's okay, but Chengran, have you made breakfast, I'm hungry now." ”

"It's been done a long time ago, but now I'm afraid it's cold, I'll go warm it up. Li Chengran said.

"No, no, it's delicious when it's cold. Xin Yifan hurriedly said, and then went to wash, and when he finished washing, Li Chengran had already heated the breakfast in the microwave and brought it out.

The three of them rushed to Shang Guxuan after breakfast, and when they arrived, it was already past 10 o'clock in the morning, Li Mo was reading a book, and when he saw that a few people were a little late, he didn't ask anything, so he said hello to a few people and began to look at the book in his hand. Li Chengran's attitude when he saw Li Mo didn't change much, as if nothing happened last night, Li Chengran saw that the water in Li Mo's teacup was almost finished, and after adding hot water to him, he sat down next to Li Mo and poured tea for Xin Yifan and Ye Zilan.

Everyone didn't speak for a while, Li Mo looked at the book and felt that the atmosphere was wrong, so he put down the book in his hand, looked at the three of them with reading glasses obliquely and asked, "What's the matter, why don't you talk today, why are you so late in the morning!"

"It's not that my brother is too late to sleep and wake up. Ye Zilan blinked her eyes and said with a smile at Li Mo.

"Is it your brother who sleeps lazily, isn't it that you sleep lazy?" Li Mo asked with some disbelief.

"Oh, teacher, why don't you believe me, don't believe you ask Sister Chengran. Ye Zilan protested.

Xin Yifan said with some embarrassment: "Uncle Mo, it's really my fault today, I checked the information too late last night, so I got up late today." ”

"You young people, stay up late, what can't you do during the day, Yifan, you have just recovered, you have to pay more attention to your body, don't stay up late. Li Mo said with concern.

"Okay, Uncle Mo, I remember. Xin Yifan said respectfully.

"Dad, do you want to put out the gilded Buddha statue you received yesterday, how do you think the price will be priced?" Li Chengran asked Li Mo at this time.

Li Mo touched his mustache and thought about it for a long time before he said: "Put it out, I won't mark the price for the time being, if anyone asks, let the guy find you." ”

"Well, okay. Li Chengran heard Li Mo say this, and got up to get the gilded Maitreya Buddha statue in response, and Ye Zilan also followed. Not long after, Li Chengran found a separate display cabinet for the gilded Buddha statue and put it in, and the location of the display case was not conspicuous.

In the afternoon, an old man who looked to be at least seventy years old entered the store, wearing a very elaborate silk shirt, holding a rosewood cane in his hand, the cane was very uniquely decorated, there were some auspicious clouds and beasts, and there were no ornaments on the cane, and it could be seen that this cane was an extremely rare work of art.

The old man stopped in front of the gilded Maitreya Buddha statue of the North and South Dynasties, put on the glasses hanging on his chest, and carefully looked at the bronze statue, at this time the old man was followed by two young people, dressed in civilian clothes, and when they saw the old man stop, they also stood at a distance of about two steps behind the old man.

Li Chengran saw this posture, and hurriedly got up and walked over, this kind of person who goes out with bodyguards is generally either rich or expensive, looking at the old man's appearance should not be an ordinary person, Li Chengran walked to the old man's side and asked in a gentle tone: "Hello, old man, is there anything eye-catching?"

The old man was looking at the bronze statue intently, and only after hearing Li Chengran's voice did he raise his head to look at Li Chengran, and the bodyguard behind him also moved his body seemingly casually, standing closer to the old man.

"Oh, girl, where did you get this Buddha statue?" the old man asked, and his tone was very gentle.

"This gilded Maitreya Buddha statue we just received. Li Chengran told the old man truthfully.

"Can I see this Buddha statue then?" the old man continued.

"Of course, you can decide. After a while, Ye Zilan took the key and opened the display cabinet and took out the gilded Maitreya Buddha statue, Li Chengran invited the old man to sit on the sofa on the side, and put the Buddha statue on the square table in front of the sand, and put the magnifying glass ready to be placed next to it.

The old man thanked him, and took a magnifying glass to look at the Buddha statue carefully, he seemed to be very familiar with this Buddha statue, skillfully dismantled the base, and looked directly at the bottom of the Buddha statue with a magnifying glass, his action made Li Chengran feel shocked, and he thought, how could this old man be so familiar with this Buddha statue, and go directly to the bottom of the Buddha statue.

"Girl, did you touch the dark compartment inside when you received this Buddha statue?" the old man asked after looking at it for a while.

"Sir, I don't understand your consciousness, this Buddha statue was just received yesterday, and we haven't had time to taste it carefully. Of course, Lee Seung-ran would not tell him the truth.

"Then can I please borrow your tweezers and carving knives? The old man asked again.

"Here, old man, what are you going to do?" Li Chengran said with some hesitation.

"Girl, don't worry, no matter how much money you receive, I will buy this Buddha statue from you at double the price. The old man thought that Li Chengran was worried that he had damaged the Buddha statue, so he said this, and then he added, "My surname is Zhou, and this bronze Buddha statue of Maitreya in the Southern Dynasty was originally in the collection of my parents, but it was lost due to some special reasons. ”
