Chapter 3: The Nine-Star Sect Contract
"I'll go first, if you need any help, just ask!" Chen Guizi took a taxi by himself and went first, and Shen Jinsan took Wu Xin back to Old Man Zhuo.
Wu Xin: "I think there is something wrong with this Chen Jiuge, he has something to hide from you, and he didn't tell you the truth!" ”
Shen Jinsan: "Who is Chen Jiuge?" ”
Wu Xin: "Huh? You don't know yet! Lao Chen's full name is Chen Jiuge, he told me yesterday, and I seem to have heard this name somewhere, but I can't remember it. ”
Shen Jinsan: "Hmm! I can also see that he didn't tell me everything, Lao Shen's matter must be more than that, there should be more intersections between Chen Guizi and Lao Shen. ”
Wu Xin: "So what's going on now?" ”
Shen Jinsan: "Go back to the old man first to get the things back, and then go to Longjing Village, I have to go back and clean up, I will spend the night at my house tonight, and I have to go to the fat man's house early tomorrow morning to wipe his buttocks, the fat man is a single transmission of their Guo family for several generations, it is easy to have an accident if you don't explain it, and finally go to the train station." ”
Wu Xin: "Won't the fat man make a call back by himself?" ”
Shen Jinsan: "I don't know him yet, it's unlikely that this pig head will report his whereabouts to the family, anyway, I'll go to find out tomorrow." ”
Back at Old Man Zhuo's house, Shen Jinsan quickly packed a dry of items, and before going out, he put three sticks of incense in front of the old man's ancestral tablet.
Wu Xin followed beside her, and she found something strange, so she asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
Speaking of Old Man Zhuo, Shen Jinsan immediately looked a little lost: "The old man's ancestral tablet, I passed on to him as my godson when I was very young, so every time I come, he will ask me to worship with incense devoutly." ”
Wu Xin: "That's not right! This should not be the ancestral tablet, but the ancestral master's tablet, if you have a lot of people from the Nine Star Sect, it is useless to worship! ”
Shen Jinsan: "What? The tablet of the grandfather? Yes, but not? Can't worship? ”
Wu Xin wanted to speak and stopped: "Forget it, it doesn't matter, just worship." ”
Shen Jinsan: "Let's go, I don't know what year and month it will be when I go back here!" ”
Shen Jinsan walked out of the room, he turned around and stared into the room, and finally closed the door gently.
It was already the early morning of the second day when he came to Longjing Village, and when he arrived at Shen Jinsan's house, Shen Jinsan took Wu Xin to the study.
Shen Jinsan: "You take a rest here first, and I'll go and tidy up the room and then take you up." After saying that, Shen Jinsan walked out of the study and went to the second floor.
Where is Wu Xin an idle person, as soon as Shen Jinsan left, she touched all the rooms and courtyards on the first floor, and then climbed the stairs to the second floor, and found Shen Jinsan in the direction of the sound.
Wu Xin: "I really can't see it, you're still a local tyrant!" The house at home is so big! ”
Shen Jinsan: "How much can a self-built house in the countryside be worth without a real estate certificate!" You're here just in time, you're going to sleep here tonight, it was my mother's room. ”
Wu Xin: "Okay! I saw a lot of antiques on the first floor just now! ”
Shen Jinsan: "Yes, I originally thought they were all decorations bought by Lao Shen as decorations, but later after Lao Shen left, I realized that they were all real antiques." ”
Wu Xin: "I heard Lao Chen talk about it during dinner, but I didn't expect your father to be a tomb robber, and the one we hate the most in this industry is tomb robbers." ”
Shen Jinsan smiled awkwardly: "Hmm! I just found out, you can rest, I still have to go and pack my things. ”
Wu Xin: "Okay, good night!" ”
Shen Jinsan closed the door, he dug out the travel backpack that his mother bought for him when he was in college in the cloakroom, and after sorting out some clothes and stuffing them in, Shen Jinsan suddenly remembered an incident that Old Man Zhuo had mentioned to him before he died:
The red bag!
Shen Jinsan vaguely remembered that after his father hung a golden talisman on him, he took out a red brocade bag and put it in the iron box where the biscuits were originally placed, and then put it in the camphor wood box.
Shen Jinsan took out the camphor wooden box and put it on the floor, and when he opened it, he saw that there were some clothes from his childhood, which were secretly hidden by his mother, and wanted to keep them as a souvenir when his son grew up.
People are like this, no matter how old you are, you will always be a child in the eyes of your parents, whose parents are not favored, once upon a time, he was also a treasure in the hands of parents.
Shen Jinsan was squatting by the box with a childhood toy in his hand in a daze, and Wu Xin quietly walked over: "Ha! It's something you used to have when you were a kid! When I was younger, I didn't have any toys, and my dad made me practice every day! ”
Shen Jinsan: "Aren't you still sleeping?" ”
Wu Xin: "I know the bed more, and I can't sleep in a strange place." ”
Shen Jinsan put the toy aside, and pulled out the iron box that was pressed at the bottom from the camphor box.
Wu Xin: "Are you looking for this box?" ”
Shen Jinsan: "Hmm! Since you don't want to sleep, come and help me! ”
The two of them came to the study together, and after handing the box to Wu Xin, Shen Jinsan put the two boxes and seven gold coffin nails stolen from the ancient tomb of Yujiashan on the desk, as well as the grooved cork and the green jade seal spit out by the blazing golden toad.
Shen Jinsan asked Wu Xin for the iron box and opened it on the desk, the red bag inside was still there, loosened the knot and took out the items in the bag, which turned out to be a roll of old yellow paper about 20 centimeters wide tied up with a thick hemp rope.
Wu Xin blurted out: "The contract of the Nine Star Sect? ”
Shen Jinsan was surprised: "What! This is the contract? ”
Wu Xin: "That's right! I've seen it a few times when I was a kid, so open it up and take a look! ”
Shen Jinsan slowly spread out the old yellow paper on the desk, there were many red runes and spells drawn on the yellow paper, followed by a pair of blackened blood palm prints, which should have been pressed, and behind them were complex ancient Chinese characters arranged in an orderly manner, which were older than the oracle bone inscriptions, each ancient Chinese character was written vertically on the paper, and a blackened blood fingerprint would be printed at the end.
The more you open this roll of yellow paper, the newer the paper becomes, and you can see a lot of traces of connection, it should be that the front is not enough to write, and then a new continuation is connected, when it is almost to the end, Wu Xin suddenly grabbed Shen Jinsan's arm: "Stop!" ”
Shen Jinsan was taken aback by him, and thought that he had broken the contract: "What's wrong?" ”
Wu Xin: "It's your name on it!" ”
Shen Jinsan: "Huh? How do you see that? These words look very old. ”
Wu Xin pointed his finger at the last two ancient characters: "Uncle Zhuo has a dictionary of the Nine Star Sect here, which specifically records these words, the words on the contract must be used like this, otherwise it is invalid, write the name, press the handprint, it means that the contract is signed, and your name is followed by my name!" ”
Shen Jin was surprised: "I've never signed it!" How could your name be on it too? ”
Wu Xin: "It must have been signed when I was a child, but you don't remember, no wonder Zhuo Lao wants you to worship the tablet of the ancestor, don't forget, Zhuo Lao and my father are senior brothers, we are both members of the Nine Star Sect, you should call me a junior sister!" ”
