It was my father who called me, he said that he and his mother went to Chengdu to play, because he knew that I was home today, so he gave the guys in the shop a holiday, and asked me to take care of the shop, and he will come back in a few days.

I sighed, sure enough, it was my father's style of doing things. I was bored, I took out the ledger from the drawer, and roughly looked at the "sharp goods" in it, and looked at me with some interest, in fact, I was just looking for a reason to pass the time.

I came to a large round table, put the ledger away and sat down, the southern winter is always cold, only two pages later, I felt cold behind me, so I began to look for a stove.

On the table at the counter, I found something that caught my eye. It was an extremely beautiful jade bracelet, and even though I hadn't studied anything of that kind, I could say it was worth a lot of money based on its texture alone. Out of curiosity, I took it out.

I don't know if it's because of the cold weather, or because of the material of the jade, which oozes a trace of coolness in my hand.

I lay on the table, facing the sunlight, my fingers feeling some bumps on the inside. In the sunlight, I caught a glimpse of what image was engraved on the inside of the bracelet, which surprised me a little, and I straightened up from the table.

Looking at the shape of a flower, the flower is so small that if it weren't for the nick with my fingers, I am afraid it would be difficult to find.

Looking at this flower more closely, suddenly my mind went blank, paused, and then like a movie, a picture flashed through my mind, it was a totem!

This reminds me of the relationship between the two, could it be that this matter has something to do with the owner of the bracelet? Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, I took out my phone and took a few pictures of the totem.

As soon as I finished doing this, the old man walked over with his steps, and he saw that I was playing with the bracelet in my hand, and stretched out his hand to grab it: "Yo hey! OMG! This thing can't be moved! ”

I very skillfully dodged his outstretched hand: "Boss, where did this thing come from?" His face was a little anxious, and when he saw that I didn't give it to him, he simply didn't rob it: "How do I know, anyway, Brother Dong brought it back, just call me to keep it!" ”

My dad? Now, I'm even more strange, in order not to conflict with my family's business, our team never touches jade or anything like that, what did Brother Dong take this back for?

Looking at Lao Wei's anxious appearance, I felt that it was worthless to embarrass him, so it was better to wait for Brother Dong to come back and ask him, I had a hand left and right, and I was not afraid that he would trick me, so I gave the bracelet to Lao Wei.

As if he had put his own family heirloom, he first sighed on it, then pulled a piece of paper and wiped the bracelet all over, and then put it in his arms and walked inside. The room in the back room is my dad's collection, and there are all kinds of strange things in it.

I remember when I was twelve, I snuck in for a while, and saw a skull on the shelf, as if it was about to bite me, and I was so frightened that I forgot to move, and stared at it for a while before I reacted and ran outside.

Then when I turned around, my elbow touched a piece of porcelain, and then there was a thudding sound, and I was even more confused, so I simply stopped running, and sat on the ground and began to cry.

Brother Dong rushed over when he heard the sound and saw the fragments in one place, and he couldn't hide the distress on his face. I was afraid that he would hit me, so I cried even harder, and when he saw the skull facing me on the counter, he seemed to understand something, and he sighed, walked over and put it in a box, and then crouched down to comfort me before taking me out.

Since then, the room has been locked, and I will only bring it in when important guests come, and I have never dared to lean over there because of the shadow left by my childhood, but then I grew up and began to touch the things of the Chen family, and I felt that it was nothing.

I actually wanted to go in and have a look, but like a thief, the old man opened the door and squeezed in.

Lao Wei saw that I kept looking at him again, and threw me a warning look before closing the door, for a while I couldn't smile bitterly, aren't we a family?

I didn't pay any more attention to the inquiring eyes of the old man when he came out, turned around and left him with a back, and returned to the front shop.

As soon as I sat down, an unkempt old man sneaked in, and I glanced at him, holding something tightly in my arms, and looked around vigilantly when I came in.

Looking at his appearance, I guess there is something good, but I can't let him look down on me, so I put on glasses and pretend to be the boss to come out.

He saw that there was no one else in the shop except me, so he hesitated to ask me, "Little doll, where is the owner of this shop?" There was a Henan accent in his words.

I coughed twice: "Exactly below." He obviously didn't believe it, and looked at me questioningly: "Doll, I can't be sloppy with this thing, can you give me a palm?" I patted my chest: "Don't worry, I'm a top student!" I learned from him.

He looked at me again from beginning to end, as if he had made up his mind, and finally took it out of his bosom with a gritted tooth. I looked at him and felt a little excited, maybe I could sweep some "sharp goods" but only saw a thin book.

I was a little disappointed for a while, but after seeing those three words, I became excited again. This is Zhuge Liang's "Lesson Before the Horse" during the Three Kingdoms period

As the saying goes: Kong Ming's horse front class is a leisure time in the army, so it is done to show that future generations tend to avoid it. These fourteen lessons are the ones in the pre-horse lessons, each of which refers to a dynasty, and its rise and fall can be obtained beyond the promise. Until the end of the fourteenth lesson, the period of two reciprocations is also. The temple is at the end of the day, so as to see another yuan after that. Among them, the previous lesson of the pig and the cow is a rhetoric, and the fact is that he is to blame and does not know how to make up for it.

It can be roughly understood that this is a book that predicts major events in the world. Literally, it means divination in front of the horse before sending out the army, which is the meaning of divination.

In comparison, Zhuge Liang's "Lessons Before the Horse" is easier to decipher than other books of prophecy that have appeared in Chinese history, because it is very regular, predicting a historical dynasty in each lesson, and describing it in the order of historical evolution.

As for other prophecies that talk about major historical events, because sometimes a dynasty will have many major events, and some dynasties will have fewer major events and are irregular, so it is not easy to correspond to the prophesied dynasties.

However, there are also such rumors among the people, saying that it is a fake book written by later generations in the name of Zhuge Liang to predict the dynasties in a mysterious way. The content is completely implausible, and it is actually a work from the Republic of China period.

I straightened my mind, "Brother, where did you get this thing?" ”

He beckoned to me and motioned for me to lean closer to my ear, "In the past, my ancestor saved Erlang God, he didn't know what disease he had and was about to die, and in the end, our ancestor spent all the money in order to treat him, and finally when he was sick and left, he gave our ancestor this, so that we can keep it for a good life, saying that it is a very important thing." ”

I asked, "Brother, why don't you treasure it well, but instead take it out and sell it?" ”

He sighed and said that it was because the child in the family was sick and urgently needed money for surgery, and the family had all been drained, so he hit the idea on this, and there was a book left and right, and he couldn't understand it, if it could be sold for a good price, it could be regarded as Erlang God repaying their ancestors for saving their lives.

I probably know what the Erlang God said in my brother's mouth. Because the eye of heaven is the symbol of the god Erlang, and there are many legends about the origin of the eye of the god Erlang, there is a saying that the god of Erlang is the god of the Di tribe.

The ancestors of the Di nationality lived in the northwest of our country at the earliest, and have always maintained the custom of "cutting (黥) forehead for the sky", that is, carving traces on the forehead with a knife, and then applying ink to the wound, so that it grows into the flesh and forms permanent traces, which looks like an erected eye, that is, the so-called "heavenly eye" - this is the origin of Erlang God's three eyes. Therefore, saving the "Erlang God" is actually the people of the Di tribe who were saved.

In addition, prediction books like "The Lesson Before the Horse" are commonly known as the Book of Heaven. Those who can write the Book of Heaven are not ordinary people, like Liu Bowen who wrote the song of baked cakes, Jiang Ziya who wrote the song of Qiankun Wannian, etc.

It is rumored that Liu Bowen was originally a god around the Jade Emperor, assisting Zhu Yuanzhang to create the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for 276 years. And although Jiang Ziya is not a god, he can finally become a god.

Since someone writes the Book of Heaven, someone must read the Book of Heaven, and to understand these Book of Heaven, there must be innate luck. It is very simple to know if a person has innate luck, that is, whether this person has a pair of heavenly eyes, and the Di people happen to have such a pair of "heavenly eyes", so it is not surprising that they can have "Horse Lesson".

I thought about it, regardless of whether this thing is true or not, I feel that it has value in itself, and this kind of thing can no longer be measured by money.

I took out a card: "Brother, since you are here, I will never let you go home empty-handed this time, here is a deposit of 100,000 yuan, if your child still needs money in the future, just come to me, I will accept this thing from you." ”

With that, I gave him a slip of paper with my contact information and bank card password.

Brother didn't expect a book to be worth so much money and didn't react at once, he was stunned for a long time before he stretched out his hand to take it, and he was about to thank me if he was grateful, I hurriedly stopped his movements, I can't afford such a big gift as a junior.

He thanked me and went back happy. I was very excited to get such an interesting thing, and I couldn't wait to start researching it.

After turning two pages, I couldn't understand it, so I turned on my computer and searched for information on the Internet, and after reading it for a while, I didn't get anything substantial.

I thought about it, I was afraid that this thing was more interested in the rotten master than me, so I immediately called him, but he was not as excited as I thought, and said that he had seen this thing a long time ago.

I didn't believe what he said, he seemed a little helpless on the other end of the phone, and told me to turn the last page and see.

I did as he said, when I saw the barcode on the last page, I finally believed what the rotten master said, and couldn't laugh for a while, he saw that I didn't speak for a long time and then said that I would be clearer if I scanned the barcode, and I had a face full of black lines on the other end of the phone, and I had greeted the old man's ancestors for eighteen generations, and hung up the phone angrily.

After thinking about it, the old brother's expression didn't look like he was lying to me, but the barcode at the back of the book really didn't make sense, and I speculated that there was a great probability that it was dropped.

This old brother doesn't know how many places he asked before he asked this, but halfway through, he could have changed things if he started his mind.

I still felt a little pain in my heart when I touched the book, so in order to keep the lesson in mind for myself, I put it in the most conspicuous place on my desk, although it was a copy, it was not bad as a research object when I was bored.
